Chapter 41: Changing Course
Hearing Zhang Wuji say this, everyone didn't say anything more.
Instead, he knelt down directly and said, "Your Majesty Shengming! ”
Zhang Wuji waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, all Aiqing have worked hard today, four Aiqing, please take a seat." I have important matters to discuss with you. ”
After hearing Zhang Wuji's words, Zhao Pusheng and the four of them sat on the chairs on both sides in turn.
Zhang Wuji looked at the four people in front of him. He asked, "First of all, I would like to talk to a few Aiqing about the reorganization of the military horses under my command and the jurisdiction of the land under my command. ”
Zhao Pusheng stood up at this time and arched his hand and said, "The ministers are all willing to serve Your Majesty." ”
Zhang Wuji waved his hand and said, "General Zhao, please take a seat, I know this." But I still have to make some arrangements. Supervising the military, there are four Aiqing here, and this is very peaceful. It's just that there are still some problems with the governance of the territory. Since then, Chen Han has revoked the country name and the year name. Unified use of my 'Daming' country name, with my 'dragon and phoenix' year name. There's nothing wrong with that. ”
Zhang Dingbian nodded at this time and said, "This is as it should be, as it should be." It's just that it's too late to change the flag right now. When we return to Wuchang, we will immediately order the quartermasters. ”
Zhang Wuji nodded and said, "Well, that's good." Then the next question is the bureaucracy. I intend to leave Chen Han's officials, whether civil ministers or military generals, but all those who are willing to serve me will remain in their original positions. If he is unwilling to serve, then there is no need to be embarrassed, after he removes his position, he can leave on his own. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Pusheng and the others' eyes lit up. They originally thought that they would at least be demoted by one level, but they didn't expect Zhang Wuji to still protect their high-ranking officials.
However, as soon as Zhang Wuji's words were finished, he thought of a serious problem, that is, the official position on his side and the official position of the group in front of him may have some conflict.
After all, his team is mainly composed of Mingjiao people. Yang Xiao and Fan Yao served as prime ministers. And the position of captain is held by his grandfather.
And Zhao Pusheng in front of him is Chen Youliang's captain. Is this to remove my grandfather or to remove him?
But after thinking about it, Zhang Wuji added: "However, the official system of our dynasty is slightly different from the official system set by Chen Youliang. Chen Youliang proclaimed himself Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and the official system used was the Three Princes and Nine Emperors of the Qin and Han Dynasties. However, the official system I used was the three-province and six-ministry system of the former Song Dynasty. So there's some conflict. Therefore, I also plan to change the official system of Aiqing. ”
Fu Youde was the first to say at this time: "Everything is up to Your Majesty's grace. ”
Zhang Wuji nodded and said, "The official positions of the other generals can not be moved, but General Zhang, your official positions will be changed for you." ”
Hearing this, the expressions on the faces of the four people were different.
Fu Youde and Ding Pulang's mentality belongs to the "senior wage earners", and as long as the "boss" pays wages on time and gives food, they can work for the boss with peace of mind. Although they will not betray their Lord for glory, if they are in a desperate situation one day, they will also choose to surrender decisively after running out of ammunition and food.
At the moment, the two of them are a little glad that they didn't show too much affection for Chen Youliang. Otherwise, he may lose his official position like Zhang Dingbian.
And Zhao Pusheng looked like he had nothing to do with himself. Compared with Chen Youliang, he prefers Zhang Wuji.
Moreover, because of the unclear things about Xu Shouhui's death, he has always been suspicious of Chen Youliang. Naturally, Chen Youliang's old ministers will not say much.
And Zhang Dingbian was stunned at first, but then he was relieved. Who let himself go closest to Chen Youliang? It is understandable that the new lord does not trust him.
Zhang Wuji noticed the strange expressions on the faces of the four people, and immediately explained: "That's the case. General Zhang is an officer who holds the position of Tai Lieutenant, and although our dynasty also has this official position, this official position is somewhat different from General Zhang's 'Tai Lieutenant'. In my dynasty this official position is more like a title. And this title has already been given to my grandfather. And the real charge for the army is the privy envoy of the Privy Council. Therefore, in terms of military power, Chen Han's lieutenant should be compared to the privy envoy of our dynasty. Therefore, I would like to change General Zhang's position as a lieutenant to a privy envoy. ”
Hearing Zhang Wuji's words, Zhang Dingbian looked at Zhang Wuji with a surprised expression.
They are all commanders of the First Army, so they are naturally very clear about the official positions of these generals. What Zhang Wuji said is indeed good. The Lieutenant only administers the Privy Council. But it was the privy envoys who really ruled the whole army.
His official position has not changed, but he has just changed his title.
Zhang Dingbian didn't expect him to join Zhang Wuji for the first time, and Zhang Wuji gave him such a big official title. This somewhat flattered him.
Seeing that Zhang Dingbian didn't speak, Zhang Wuji asked, "General Zhang is dissatisfied?" ”
Zhang Dingbian came back to his senses at this time, knelt on the ground and said, "No, no, no! The minister is a rough man. Not like civil officials can speak. It's just that the minister feels that His Majesty is long, which makes the minister flattered. The ministers voted for His Majesty, and His Majesty became a vassal and an official. What does this make the minister repay! ”
Zhang Wuji smiled: "Haha, General Zhang's words are serious. General Zhang was the commander of the three armies in Chen Han. I'm just giving General Zhang a tone now. General Zhang is now humble in his words, but he is unwilling to assist me wholeheartedly? ”
Zhang Dingbian raised his head and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no!" Minister: "For a while, Zhang Dingbian was a little bad at speaking.
In the end, Zhang Dingbian's face turned red, and then he only heard a loud "bang". Zhang Dingbian slammed his head on the ground again, and then said: "The minister will definitely live up to His Majesty's grace." ”
Zhang Wuji was also shocked, he didn't expect Zhang Dingbian to be too sincere.
However, Zhang Wuji also likes this kind of affectionate and righteous person. As long as such a person holds his heart, he will always be loyal to you.
Originally, Zhang Wuji wanted to give the position of privy envoy to Xu Da or Chang Yuchun, Wang Baobao, and King Ruyang.
How can I help my three elder brothers, and the old father-in-law are too "ignorant of lifting".
Xu Da is Zhu Yuanzhang's sworn brother, and he refuses to turn his back on Zhu Yuanzhang for himself.
As for Chang Yuchun, although he will fall to himself, his eldest brother Chang is now in Zhu Yuanzhang's camp. In a hurry, I can only compensate him slowly in the future.
After all, Zhang Dingbian took 600,000 troops and the entire Jingxiang Nine Counties to join him. If you want to do the math, his original shares are bigger than his hole cards. This would be too much to say without giving some face.
As for the most suitable for this position, my dear uncle and father-in-law really don't know how to lift. If Meng Yuan's main force is not wiped out by himself, his eldest brother and father-in-law are afraid that they will not surrender to themselves for a while.
Zhang Wuji smiled: "Okay." Zhang Aiqing, please get up. As long as you live up to everyone's expectations in the future, you can manage the generals and horses well. ”
"Yes!" Zhang Dingbian was moved to cry bitterly. Then he got up and sat back.
As for Zhao Pusheng, there is no problem, Taishi is an "honorary title" no matter where he is. Zhao Pusheng's actual position is only the governor of the water division. He doesn't have to change.
