Chapter 157

The content of the official document issued by the center and personally approved by Emperor Hongwu is very simple.

Except for Wei Ran from the Mobile Battalion who remained in Shanhaiguan, the remaining 2 defenders were all transferred to the newly established Jianzhou Capital on the spot.

The four guards transferred from Beiping and Liaodong don't have to go back, and the organizational system also belongs to the capital of Jianzhou.

The guards of the two kings who were transferred from King Liao and King Ning to conquer the savages in Jianzhou returned to their original places.

Zhou Xing, the chief military officer, will also return to Kaiping and continue to be his governor.

In recent years, Shanhaiguan has the meaning of becoming Neiguan.

Coupled with the establishment of the Chief Envoy in Liaodong, and the Daning Capital and Beiping Capital to defend against the Northern Man, the importance has been greatly reduced.

It is no longer necessary for Ming Dynasty to deploy so many troops in Shanhaiguan.

It just so happened that now the guards of Shanhaiguan had made great contributions in conquering the savages in Jianzhou, so Emperor Hongwu promoted them to the capital of Jianzhou on the spot.

The commander of the capital is a second-rank official, and he holds the military and political power of a province, which is much more powerful than the Shanhaiguan governor. For Jiang Rengang, although the rank has not been upgraded, it is equivalent to a half-level promotion.

And the commanding officer Tongzhi is from the second rank, which is a real promotion for Peng Ke and Li Wenchang, the two generals of the third rank.

It's not just them.

A capital division will also be equipped with 4 commanders, and each of them has two guard commanders, who are also transferred to the commander.

Although he has not been promoted in terms of official position, he is still a third-rank official.

But in terms of status, they no longer only manage one guard, but participate in the management of the entire Jianzhou capital, and their rights have also been expanded.

All the senior generals in Shanhaiguan have been promoted and their salaries have been raised!

It's just that their new official position is not easy to do!

Five days later.

Respectfully sent off the angel who delivered the decree, and then bid farewell to the brother troops, leaving only the generals at all levels who stayed behind in Jianzhou.

Jiang Rengang, the newly released commander of the Jianzhou capital, immediately held the first meeting after the establishment of the Jianzhou capital.

The two commanders, Peng Ke and Li Wenchang, knew each other.

Lu Ming, Xu Ji, Wu Xuanshu, and Cui Xiaolei are all in charge of the matter.

As well as Zhuang De, Jing Baoan, Zhang Yu, and Lu Zhen, the four commanders of Beiping and the four guards commanders transferred from Liaodong.

This is all the military power of the newly established Jianzhou Capital.

Add up a total of more than 4 regular troops and [-] auxiliary soldiers!

Jiang Rengang sat in the main seat, glanced at the generals under him with a smile on his face, and said:
"The Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies has ordered that the first batch of supplies for Liaodong Capital will arrive within half a month!"

"More than [-] criminals will arrive together with the supplies, responsible for building the city and opening canals to divert water!"

"In the spring of the coming year, [-] immigrants will arrive in Jianzhou!"

"Your family members will also take over next year, and the treatment will be the same as before!"

"Before that, we must rely on Wula City to build a big city that can accommodate 10 people!"

"Outside the city, we need to plan a village that can accommodate at least 20 people!"

"If all goes well, in the next three years, the center will immigrate 50 people to Jianzhou to farm!"

"I also hope that you and I will work together to manage Jianzhou well!"

All the generals participating in the meeting stood up, clasped their fists and saluted: "I respect the order of the Commander!"

This is not the first time that Daming used crimes against the people to strengthen borders.

Similar to exile thousands of miles before.

After these criminals were sent to Jianzhou, they were all to do coolies, but the treatment was always better than the northern barbarian prisoners of war and savages in the labor dispatch department.

During their sentence, these criminals need to help the frontier army to build cities and farm fields.

It is even more normal for the family members of the frontier army to follow the soldiers.

Although Emperor Hongwu gave up the military household system under the persuasion and statement of interests of the former Mohist giant.

However, the border guards are still allowed to bring their family members to guard the border together, and the family members guarding the border are exempted from full service and miscellaneous service!
It can be said that if one person joins the army, the whole family is honored.

And because of the immigration reclamation order this time, after their family members come, they are counted as military immigrants. Similarly, each household can be given [-] acres of land!
This can be regarded as good luck to encounter such a good thing!
For other immigrants, they also worry about the risk of traveling thousands of miles away.

But for the families of the defenders in the capital of Jianzhou, they immigrated here to reunite with their families. There are only advantages and no disadvantages!

You don't have to worry about being bullied if you don't know the place where you are born. My son (husband) is a soldier here. Who dares to bully?
For the middle and senior generals in the army like Penke, they may not care much about these.

But the more than 4 soldiers under them are very happy!

Five days ago, as soon as the whole army learned that they would be stationed in Jianzhou and that the imperial court issued the Liaodong immigration and reclamation order, they immediately wrote their own writings, or asked the military clerks to help them write letters to their families!

The content of the letter is very simple, it is to report that he is safe, and to ask his family to pack their bags and come to Jianzhou to reunite with them!

When you come, you will have [-] acres of land!
In the army of the capital of Jianzhou, as long as they can read and write, they have been extremely busy these days, constantly helping their comrades in arms to write letters home!

The whole army fell into joy.

After winning the battle, taking the reward, and remembering the military exploits, now that the family has come, there are still two hundred acres of land, which is simply amazing!

The Jianzhou Capital Division in Ula City commanded the big tent.

Jiang Rengang, who was very satisfied with his subordinate's obedience and obedience, nodded his head, and continued: "The land of Jianzhou is the first place where I set foot in Ming Dynasty. There is a lot of waste waiting to be done, and there are many things that need to be dealt with."

"After the spring of next year, there will be at least 20 military members alone, plus 30 immigrants, and [-] people will gather here!"

"Generally speaking, there should be [-] military and civilian households!"

"We soldiers can sleep in tents, but ordinary people can't!"

"People are restless without houses, and restless without land!"

"As long as there is a place to live and fields to cultivate, the people who immigrated to Jianzhou can live in peace."

"The rule of Ming Dynasty in Jianzhou will be stable!"

"So, before next spring, we must prepare houses for [-] households!"

"Besides, we need to plan the plowing well so that the people can get their own land when they arrive in Jianzhou!"

Jiang Rengang glanced around at the senior officials of the Jianzhou Capital Division, and ordered in a calm and firm tone:

"Both are in command of fellow confidant Peng Ke, and all are in command of Lu Ming and Wu Xuanshu, who are in charge of farming affairs!"

"Zhuang De and other four guards stationed [-] miles deep in the southeast, northwest, and four directions of Ula City, guarding the four directions, and doing defense work!"

"Commander Li Wenchang, the commander of the capital, and concurrently serve as the city building order. After more than [-] criminals arrive, they will work with Xu Ji and Cui Xiaolei to lead all the soldiers of the Jianzhou capital except the four guards to build the city and village!"

"Before the spring of next year, I must build all the houses and plan the plowing for me!"

"If it is postponed, it will be dealt with by military law!"

Jiang Rengang's tone was cold, as if anyone who dared to fail to complete the task would make anyone unhappy for the rest of their lives.

Facing Jiang Rengang's tiger eyes, no one dared to look him in the eye, and all the generals in the tent bowed to accept orders.

"Here!"
