Chapter 318
The so-called "Imperial Great Chu Constitution" is by no means that Ning Yu wants to limit himself, let alone a set of cults in later generations, but a strengthening of the monarchy in this era. To put it bluntly, it is to strengthen the monarchy. Part of the meat is distributed to industry and commerce, on the one hand to achieve the need for checks and balances, and on the other hand to achieve prosperity.

The direction of change during the Ming and Qing Dynasties was always developing in the direction of self-weakening. Therefore, Ning Yu needed to change this point. The premise was to stabilize the development of the monarchy and get rid of the influence of the gang of gentry groups, so that the king's hands Ability to concentrate more resources and power.

In order to achieve this, the model of literati sharing the world cannot continue to remain unchanged. In order to demonstrate this determination, Ning Yu soon held the Huguang Business Conference in Huguang. Based on the Jiangnan model, the Huguang business community Concentrated, the inside and outside of the words are naturally implying that if you want power, then come and support the "Imperial Great Chu Constitution"!

Scholars from Huguang and scholars from other provinces gave Ning Yu a so-called "Congratulatory Form for Persuading People to Enter", the purpose of which is to invite Ning Yu Yu succeeded as emperor earlier, but the actual intention was to let Ning Yu sit on the emperor's seat earlier, and then they would be able to make Ning Yu compromise in the name of the world.

Even if Ning Yu's Wencheng Wude is not easy to fool, the next emperor may be fooled in the future, and then everything will return to the original state.

The gentry and many officials reached an agreement at this time, they must eagerly look forward to Ning Yu's succession, together with Cheng Yuanzhi, Ning Zhongjing, and Li Fu and other ministers, also put on red official clothes, in the palace Previously, he had bowed three times and kowtowed nine times to persuade Ning Yu to ascend to the Great Treasure as soon as possible.

"One of the three parts of the world is already in my hands. The king is the current Yao and Shun, and he will ascend the great treasure in the morning to stabilize the hearts of the people in the world."

Scholars claimed to praise Ning Yu's achievements outside the Prince Chu's mansion, and it was really hard to associate them with the previous group. Perhaps if someone else stood in front of them, they would have been blown to the ground.

Ning Yu was playing chess with Ning Zhongyuan in the mansion, turning a deaf ear to the roaring mountains and tsunami outside, just concentrating on studying the chess game in front of him, and Ning Zhongyuan was getting tired of hearing this set, and he didn't change his face at all. I'm just curious about Ning Yu's calmness.

"Yu'er, don't you feel a little flustered about this act of persuading people outside the door?"

Ning Yu put a chess piece on the board, and then said with a smile: "They are so familiar with this set, no matter who is the emperor, they will do it, Kangxi, Yongzheng and you, they all cheer Is it? It doesn't matter who is the emperor, it is important to have the emperor."

Hearing that Ning Yu's words seemed to mean something, Ning Zhongyuan just chuckled, "You can sit firmly on this Diaoyutai, which really shows that you have made progress. It's just that if the ancestor's family law wants to come out, I'm afraid it still needs some twists and turns."

A wry smile appeared on Ning Yu's face, "There is nothing we can do now. It's easy to be an emperor, but it's too difficult to take care of the rest of the matter. If we wait until the Great Chu is established, I'm afraid we won't be able to go to war like this. Right now, it's not easy I'm in better shape and I can see more clearly."

"As for those who opposed, those who really dared to do something, I'm afraid they were all killed before, but now they are just speculators and rotten scholars. It's okay to let them talk, but I'm afraid they can't if they really want to hold guns of."

If Ning Yu's words are spread, it may make the scholars feel ashamed. The most important thing is that Ning Yu is not slandering out of thin air, but a real statement.

The so-called literati’s strength of character, after Manchuria’s entry into the customs, was beaten into ruins. Among them, the few great Confucian scholars, such as Wang Fuzhi, Gu Yanwu, Huang Zongxi, etc., who have more strength of character, have now gone west. Almost all literati were born in the Qing Dynasty, so this style of character is naturally a question mark.

"Because of this, it is necessary to introduce this constitution. It would be too risky to put the future of the country only on these literati and gentry. My emperor of Great Chu must jump out of the Confucian circle of monarchs and ministers to be able to Be true to what you say.”

The noise outside the door is still going on, but Ning Yu's mind is no longer on it. He doesn't care about the slobber of the gentlemen, but he also needs to prevent the other party from jumping over the wall, so the army must be firmly in his hands right now. One point is not a problem for Ning Yu, who has made more achievements than Li Er.

To a certain extent, Ning Yu has quite a lot of cards in his hands now. First of all, he launched the anti-Qing uprising as Huaxia Zhengshuo, and in addition, he single-handedly pulled up the army, and he also single-handedly fought. Even the father who was the only one who was a threat chose to abdicate voluntarily, which is really a manifestation of destiny.

Not to mention Li Er who brought about the change of Xuanwu Gate, even Zhu Chongba, who started with a bowl, can hardly compare with Ning Yu's status. Eight is still a colleague, plus Chang Yuchun, the Huaixi bosses, cannot fully guarantee Zhu Yuanzhang's absolute prestige.

"The destiny is impermanent, and only the virtuous live in it. This sentence is the source of chaos in the world. What I have to do is to fix this destiny, so as to avoid this source of disaster, and this constitution is the best carrier , in the name of the constitution, to make an appointment with all peoples, and to use this law as the basis both inside and outside the court, so as to maintain the stability of our great Chu country forever."

Ning Yu finally cast out his greatest ambition. Only when everyone in the world thinks that destiny is unchangeable, can the Ning family and Da Chu avoid repeating the same mistakes. And this is also Ning Zhongyuan's greatest pursuit.

Ning Zhongyuan looked at the turbulent crowd outside, with a smile on his face.

"The awarding of honors and titles in the army can begin."

At the beginning of February, the Fu-Han army took advantage of the fact that the war had basically ceased at the moment, and recalled many generals back to Wuchang. On the one hand, they wanted to participate in the enthronement ceremony of Ning Yu, and on the other hand, it was an important matter related to their own future—— Awards and titles.

In the current Fuhan Army, there have been attempts at medals, and the response in the army is also very good, but after all, it is in the initial stage and has not been systematic, so this will launch a systematic one. Medals, on the other hand, will introduce a military rank system for soldiers and officers in the army to ensure the order of superiority and inferiority.

In the past, the Fuhan Army judged their rank more based on their positions, but this approach was not accurate and objective enough, so it often caused some problems. The introduction of the military rank system can not only clarify the status of soldiers in the army , Responsibility and mutual relationship are also honors bestowed by the country on soldiers. A breakdown will be carried out based on the current military ranks, which is also a move to attract people's hearts.

Of course, this time the awarding ceremony will be held directly in Wuchang for high-level officers, while the middle and lower-level officers will be carried out through the divisions to avoid confusion caused by troop transfers.

Ning Yu was wearing a clean and tidy military uniform. Accompanied by Ning Zhongyi, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, he walked into the large tent that had already been set up. At this time, hundreds of generals and officers had already sat in the tent. Many people stayed in the army, so they did not appear in this grand ceremony.

Ning Zuyi, Dong Ce, Cheng Ming, Cheng Zhien, Xu Chengliang, Ning Tieshan, Qian Ying, Li Shihu, Yue Lingfeng, Xu Mingyuan and others were already sitting in the tents at this time, and some other middle and low-level generals were also full. In a row, they all wore neat new military uniforms, with smiles on their faces.

"The bounden duty of a soldier is to defend the family and the country. You are all the elites of our Fuhan Army up to now, and your honors and titles are the witnesses of your achievements in the past few years. Without you, there would be no Fuhan Army today, and there would be no Great Chu right now."

Ning Yu's face was slightly dignified, he raised his hand, and solemnly gave a military salute to the officers below.

"You guys deserve a gift from me, Ning Yu!"

The officers of the Fuhan Army sitting below looked a little excited. Some of them were veterans of the Young Eagle Battalion of the Fuhan Army, some were elites from the Jiangwu Hall, and some generals defected from the Qing army. Now they only have one thought in their minds, what? A scholar dies for his confidant, that's all.

Compared with the Qing army, the Fu-Han army was really good at treating the low-level officers and soldiers. Each person enlisted in the army first gave ten acres of military meritorious land, and every time he was rewarded for his meritorious service, he would also be rewarded with a large amount of land. Yes, the Ning family didn't own much land. In this respect, they were stronger than the Eight Banners that entered the customs. Therefore, everyone's loyalty to the Ning family was not a lie.

Of course, the Ning family's children are not saints, but they all understand one thing in their hearts. Only by protecting the army can the Ning family's wealth be maintained forever, and temporary grievances will be rewarded in the future. The Han army was much stronger than the Qing army.

"The awarding ceremony begins!"

The medal system currently designed by Ning Yu is mainly divided into three categories. The first category is the Jiuding Medal, which represents the highest honor for soldiers. It cannot be obtained, and no one can obtain this type of medal at present. After all, the current generals of the Fuhan Army really have no such qualifications.

The second category is the Baoding Medal for general meritorious generals. The Baoding Medal is mainly divided into three classes. The first class Baoding Medal is mainly to reward the meritorious generals who led major battles. Of course, no one can get it yet. The second class Baoding Medal The medal is to reward the meritorious generals who lead the general battle. This kind of medals include the current masters, as well as Dong Ce and others from the General Staff Office.The third-class Baoding Medal is to reward generals who have made meritorious service in general battles, such as the current deputy commanders of various divisions and the heads of the main regiments.

As for the third category, it is for low-ranking officers and ordinary meritorious soldiers. It is mainly divided into third-class loyalty medals, which are not much different from before. Thousands of medals in this category are expected to be awarded throughout the army There are so many, so it will not be issued directly today, but will be issued by each division and regiment.

These medals basically cover the entire Fuhan Army at present. Ning Yu did not add too many medals, which would actually depreciate the medals. Therefore, controlling the number of medals is also very important means.

Of course, for the meritorious soldiers who have been honored, Ning Yu not only gives a medal to finish the job, but also all kinds of treatment matching the medal, including land and political preferential treatment. In addition, those who have the Fuhan Army Medal will be given priority to take up official positions in various counties and towns after retiring from the army.
In order to better shape the sense of honor of the soldiers, Ning Yu also specially stipulated that the children of those who hold meritorious service can be allowed to directly join the Young Eagle Battalion, and after relevant training, they can directly enter the Lecture Hall for further study. In the future, I will also have the opportunity to serve as an officer in the Fuhan Army.

Ning Yu would not play the game of fairness in this era. As long as he can firmly hold the hearts of the Fuhan Army in his hands, what is the benefit of the release?As for those soldiers who have just joined the Fuhan Army, there are indeed those who are so talented and have the opportunity to make their mark in the current Fuhan Army system, so it will not affect anything.

In the face of so many carrots, the loyalty of the Fuhan Army to Ning Yu can be imagined. To put it bluntly, even if they are asked to commit suicide directly at this time, many people will be willing to do so, because they have put His life was sold to Ning Yu.

Before the award of the medal, Ning Yu also introduced the newly launched military rank system. At present, the Fuhan Army has introduced five grades and fourteen ranks for generals and officers, which are divided into five grades: marshal, general, school officer, lieutenant officer, and non-commissioned officer. Among them, the Marshal is currently a fiction, and there is only one Grand Marshal of the whole army, which is held by Ning Yu himself. There are very strict requirements for this rank, that is, non-royal and Jiuding Medal winners are not allowed to accept this rank. After all, in name, The Generalissimo of the whole army is currently in command of the entire Fuhan Army.

In addition, Ning Yu also specially vacated a Marshal of Arms, the purpose of which is naturally to prepare for the future Marshal of the Army and Marshal of the Navy. Of course, no one in the current Fuhan Army can reach this rank. Vacancy status.

Below the marshal, there are generals, lieutenant generals, and major generals. They are mainly aimed at most of the current generals. Among them, Ning Zhongyi, as the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, is tentatively awarded the rank of lieutenant general, while the other division commanders are all major generals. Military ranks like Ning Zuyi, Dong Ce, Xu Chengliang and Ning Si of the Imperial Guard Brigade were all made major generals.

Below is the rank of colonel, which is mainly divided into senior colonel, colonel, lieutenant colonel, and major. These four levels are for the deputy division commanders, chiefs of staff of each division, and mid-level officers such as regimental commanders and battalion commanders. Further down are lieutenants, divided into captains, lieutenants, and second lieutenants, mainly some low-level officers of each company.

In addition to these officers, Ning Yu also proposed for the first time to confer ranks on the soldiers, specially setting the rank of non-commissioned officers, but everyone felt a little surprised.
