Chapter 432
Long before the meeting, Lin Chao had summed up the things to be done at this meeting - to determine Xuzhou's internal governance plan and external expansion direction in the next few years.

And the most important point is the change of high-level personnel.

Liu Bei Group has begun to take shape at this stage, and the combat effectiveness of its soldiers and horses can be regarded as first-class, not to mention the world's first.If you want to improve further, there is only one direction, which is to improve organizational effectiveness.

The former Xuzhou Twelve worked in Xuzhou. Although everyone was a great talent, the division of labor was not clear, and the power in their hands was also very flexible. Except for Xun Yu who was determined to be the chief manager of the rear, the others were just nominal posts. There is a sense of moving where it is needed.

Before discussing directors, this model is of course no problem, but after discussing directors, with the current development speed of Xuzhou, it will not work if the authority is not clarified.

That's why Lin Chao created an inner palace.

As for the nature of the inner government, the words "government out of the inner government" have been clearly expressed.

In other words, apart from military operations and other affairs of the four governments, all government affairs under Liu Bei's rule must be judged by the inner government.

Since this department has such great power, candidates for entering the government must be carefully considered.

According to Lin Chao's idea, it is best for the members of the inner government to be the head of a specific department in charge of affairs.

Tian Feng is now in charge of the taxation and garrison of the entire Xuzhou, so he will enter the government as the Xuzhou officer and the captain of the garrison.

Xun Chen will soon be appointed as the magistrate of the Zhongzheng government, and will be responsible for the selection and promotion of the entire Xuzhou scholar, and he can also enter the government to participate in politics.

In a word, it is necessary to use people who are familiar with people's livelihood and government affairs to participate in the government, so that the policies formulated in this way will not deviate from reality, and only then can a prosperous world be created.

On the other hand, the emergence of the inner government almost equated to weakening the power in the hands of the Lin Dynasty.

In the original Xuzhou, except for things that Liu Bei made a clear decision, Lin Chao, the long history and military supervisor, was completely grasped by the military and government, and the power in his hands was boundless.

In the initial period, this model was of course acceptable, but as Liu Bei Group entered the right track, the power in the hands of Lin Chao could not be unlimited.

Unlimited and unrestricted power will inevitably lead to a situation where profit makes the mind faint.

Lin Chao knew very well that he was just a middle-of-the-road man, and only possessed some advanced thoughts and insights. If he insisted on holding on to power, a negligence might cause irreparable consequences.

Although the power in his hands is divided by the inner government, with Lin Chao's current prestige in the Liu Bei Group, even if the inner government is established, he will still be able to monopolize power as before.

It is absolutely necessary to establish rules, otherwise, if the successors in the future do not have their own general knowledge and structure, but want to have the same power as themselves, that would be bad.

The military and political dictatorship began and ended with the Lin Dynasty.In the future group of officials, it is impossible for someone as powerful as Lin Chao to appear again.

Of course, everyone also understood what the inner government meant, so when Lin Chao was about to decide who would enter the government and participate in politics, everyone held their breath and focused, with anticipation in their eyes.

Under everyone's expectant eyes, Lin Chao didn't hesitate, and turned around and wrote a few names on the stone slab.

Xun Yu, Tian Feng, Xun Chen, Cui Yan.

Xun Yu is in charge of a state's government affairs, and participates in all matters, big and small, so he can naturally enter the government.

Tian Feng is in charge of the taxation of money and food in the state, and has the responsibility of farming the land, so he can also enter the government.

Xun Chen is in charge of the state's personnel affairs, and the promotion of officials, big and small, depends on him, so he should also enter the government.

Cui Yan was in charge of a state's discipline, and had the function of monitoring and impeaching officials, so it was only natural for him to enter the government.

As for Guo Jia, Xun You, Jia Xu, Ju Shou and others, Lin Chao did not arrange for them to enter the mansion.Because the inner government is only responsible for government affairs, not the military, when the staff is set up, these people will be used.

And look at these people, a drunkard, a facial paralysis, an old silver coin, and a fisherman...

If these sand sculptures are used to handle government affairs, the people of Xuzhou will not even be able to put on their underpants, not to mention their full stomachs!
Fortunately, these few people did not have the consciousness to be cattle and horses in the government affairs hall, and they had no objection to Lin Chao's arrangement.

Lin Chao thought for a while, and after hesitating for a while, wrote down another person's name on the slate——Zhuge Liang.

It can be said that one stone stirred up thousands of waves, and everyone was in an uproar!
Even Jia Xu, who was most optimistic about Zhuge Liang at the beginning, couldn't help shaking his head.

Is Zhuge Liang smart, of course smart, there is no doubt about it.

However, the inner government is the Xuzhou Government Affairs Office, which is responsible for making decisions on confidential matters.Little Kongming is only nine years old this year, isn't it a bit too childish to enter the palace.

Jia Xu believed that Lin Chao's actions would harm him instead.

Xun Chen glanced at Zhuge Liang, stood up quickly and said, "Zicu, with Kong Ming's talent, it will be a matter of time before he enters the government to participate in politics. But now he is only nine years old, no matter how smart he is, he is... just a child." !"

Xun Chen knew how much effort his elder brother Xun Yu had put into cultivating Zhuge Liang, so he naturally didn't want this good seedling to grow crooked.

Lin Chao waved his hand and smiled, "Your Ruo said, so I don't know. However, Xiao Kongming entered the mansion, so I just wanted to let him learn more. If you don't worry, you can only listen to him before he reaches adulthood, and there is no way to make a decision." right."

Hearing this, Xun Chen felt relieved.

However, everyone looked at Zhuge Liang enviously, shaking their heads and sighing at the same time.

When they were this age, they had just been enlightened not long ago.Looking at Zhuge Liang again, Lin Chao actually gave him the qualification to freely enter and leave the inner palace. With such great courage and such a cost-effective training method, Zhuge Liang's future achievements may be limitless!

Next, Lin Chao established the Industrial and Commercial Office, with Zhen Yao and Mi Zhu as the governors, and Lin Chao personally served as the official.

In fact, this is also a helpless move. After all, among the important ministers in Xuzhou, there are almost no economical ones.In other words, in this era, economics is a completely unfamiliar subject.Before Lin Chao finds a suitable candidate, he can only do it himself.

Anyway, there is no need to establish a too advanced economic system, let Mi Zhu and Zhen Yao try boldly and control the general direction by themselves.

Next, is the last and most important thing of this meeting.

Lin Chao got up, and wrote four large characters on the stone slab again - the army changed defense.

Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Lin Chao explained, "Right now, I have around [-] troops in Xuzhou. For some reason, [-] troops have been stationed around Tan County for the purpose of guarding the government. Ten thousand of them are permanent garrisons. The [-]-strong army will be replaced by the frontier troops stationed in various places."

When this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar.

It is not uncommon to say that [-] troops are used to defend the government office. After all, there are Liu Bei and all the important ministers of Xuzhou in Tan County, so it is natural to deploy heavy troops.

But [-] of them change their defenses every year, which makes everyone unable to understand.

Good guy, the [-] army is preparing to set off for the frontiers before their buttocks are hot in Tan County. What is this picture?
Furthermore, with the transportation conditions of this era, when [-] troops were transferred from the border to Tan County, and another [-] troops were transferred to the border, the food and grass needed for one round trip was not a small amount.

As the finance minister of Xuzhou, Tian Feng thinks this is pure nonsense, I absolutely cannot let you, Lin Zichu, play like this!
"Chang Shi, I think this is absolutely impossible!"

Tian Feng hurriedly stood up, this time he didn't even hand over his hands, and rolled up his sleeves to argue with Lin Chao.

"Such a waste of money and waste of money will inevitably cause anger and resentment, and I ask Chang Shi to take it back!"

It doesn't matter whether you take it back or not, anyway, you don't want money.

It's not good to do something with this money and food, you have to play around like this, right?
Tian Feng's words won everyone's approval.In their view, this so-called defense change is purely idle, because they don't see the necessity of doing so at all.

Right now, except for Liu Bei, everyone's life is very tight, why are you Lin Zichu messing around with the army!
But what everyone didn't expect was that Lin Chao, who has always been kind, was extremely determined in this matter.

Throughout the history of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, there are many examples of soldiers who only knew that there were generals but did not know that there was a monarch.As the chief general of an army, as long as he wants to, he can lead his soldiers to rebel and turn to the enemy country at any time.

For example, Meng Da of Ji Han later rebelled against Liu Bei and surrendered to Cao Wei, and then wanted to rebel against Cao Wei, and then surrendered back.

And the soldiers under his command really dared to jump sideways with him.

Lin Chao's move was precisely to solve this hidden danger.He didn't want to be fighting the enemy on the front line at some point in the future, and suddenly the generals under his command were instigated by the enemy, and then led his subordinates to defect, causing a wave of trouble for himself.

"This matter has been decided, Yuan Hao doesn't need to say more!"

Lin Chao shook his head and said, then turned to Liu Bei who was about to fall asleep on the main seat, and said, "Mr. Xuande..."

"Forehead……"

When Liu Bei heard someone calling him, he dazedly wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and asked, "What's the matter with Zichu?"

Lin Chao said with a smile: "When the troops who have changed their defenses are stationed in Tan County, I would like to ask Lord Xuande to condescend to win them over."

"This..." Liu Bei became sober at this time, and asked, "Zichu, how should I win over someone?"

Lin Chao smiled, and slowly uttered two words: "Have a banquet."

Everyone: "..."

"Grand Xuande can hold banquets for all the generals in the army from the head of the village, a small banquet every three days and a large banquet every five days. Can remember the names of these generals."

Having said that, everyone also understood Lin Chao's intentions, and looked at Lin Chao with shocked expressions.

As a monarch, it would be a terrifying thing if he could know all the military generals above the rank of head of the village...

Everyone can assert that if Liu Bei can do this, the army under his command will never have the possibility of rebellion!

As expected of Lin Zichu who is the best at calculating people's hearts, he is the only one who can come up with such a method!

Even the most stubborn Tian Feng, after understanding Lin Chao's intention, only opened his mouth, but did not continue to object.

In order for Liu Bei to fully control the army under his command, a little money and food loss... I can't bear it!

And Liu Bei, who has always been good at playing music and dancing, after hearing this sentence, his whole body was completely drunk and he woke up instantly.

What, let me take the lieutenant soldiers to dinner?

I will answer this question!
Zichu, if you say this, then I won't be sleepy!
