I am Li Shimin of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 257 Building an Official Position
After the great war, there was a short period of peace. This calm was the calm before the storm. All the princes in the world were actively preparing for war and expanding their power, either to protect themselves or to annex others.

The rear of Guanzhong was already governed by Li Shimin in a smooth manner, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. It completely became the rear of Li Shimin's conquest of the world. In order to facilitate the pacification of the world, Li Shimin moved the general's mansion to Luoyang City and temporarily left the emperor in Chang'an. His respect is increased, but in fact he has been placed under house arrest in disguise. The courtiers who died loyal to the emperor, exiled, or degraded have disappeared from the emperor's side, and they no longer have the strength to make trouble.

All the central officials of the "Bingzhou Military Government" were also relocated to Luoyang. This way, the administrative management of the newly occupied places such as Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Nanyang can be strengthened, which is indeed much more convenient.

Various armies are also rapidly mobilizing and deploying defenses. At the same time, the recruits recruited by Guanzhong and Sili have also been added to Guan Yu's Longwu Army and Zhang Yun's Leopard Army to continue integrated training and strengthen combat effectiveness.

Since the establishment of each main army regiment reached [-] people, Li Shimin has tightened the recruitment rights of each army chief general, and changed the center to concentrate on recruiting and training, and then dispatch them to each main army army. The army has become the private property of the general, so the so-called prevention of trouble before it happens.Therefore, Guanzhong and Sili are the most important places for recruiting troops. After all, Guanzhong soldiers have always endured hard battles.

On the other hand, as Li Shimin occupied more and more territories, he already embraced the entire north and most of the hinterland of the Central Plains, and there was a tendency to annex the world. The Han Dynasty was actually on the verge of extinction. Therefore, Li Shimin has been consciously rebuilding the official position structure from the central government to the local government, without too much consideration of the opinions of the emperor Liu Xie and some scholars who are still loyal to the Han Dynasty.

Originally, Li Shimin had a dream of rebuilding the "prosperous Tang Dynasty" in his heart, so these official positions and other systems must follow the settings of the Tang Dynasty.

From the central level, according to the structure of "three provinces and six ministries" plus "one station" in the early Tang Dynasty, it directly established its own team. In order to concentrate power and improve efficiency, the "three provinces" were not established for the time being.As for the "nine temples", "five prisons" and "sixteen guards" are still immature, so they are also not established.

The key point is still to build the "Six Departments" and "Yushitai", but there is no actual department for the time being. After all, he is still the Tiance General of the Han Dynasty in name, and the time to start a new one is not yet ripe.But actual authority is assigned.It's just that for the time being, "six departments" have been established to divide the powers.

According to the previous division of labor, Xi Zhicai is still responsible for the administration of officials, which can be said to be a virtual "Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials"; Xu Shu is still in charge of summarizing money and food, that is, "Shangshu of the Ministry of Households"; ;Cai Yong is responsible for the overview of the world's classics, sacrifices and imperial examinations, that is, the "Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites"; Jia Xu is responsible for the recruitment of soldiers and horses from all over the world, as well as the management of military merit and military discipline, that is, the "Shangshu of the Ministry of War"; , temporarily serving as the "Ministry of the Ministry of Industry". As for Tian Feng's upright personality, he is naturally the best candidate for the supervisory officials, and he is naturally the future "Doctor Yushi".

At this point, in today's words, the "Shadow Cabinet" has been set up, and everyone is directly responsible to Li Shimin. This will also greatly improve the efficiency of administrative jurisdiction and facilitate rapid work.

When the world is unified, when the time comes to readjust the candidates for the chiefs of the three provinces and six ministries, there may be a few people who will serve as prime ministers. After all, the chiefs of the three provinces of the Tang Dynasty are all prime ministers.

Li Shimin also intends to change the local official positions, but the general direction still follows the system of the Qin and Han Dynasties, and still adopts the two-level system of prefecture and county. to join the army.Shangzuo refers to Changshi and Sima, and assists the governor in handling state affairs.

It's just that the "states" here are no longer the thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty in the Han Dynasty, but are similar to the counties of the Han Dynasty. Of course, the Han Dynasty also inherited the Qin system from the Han Dynasty, and it is divided into two levels: prefectures and counties.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the governor at the state level was actually a fictitious supervisory agency, which had no administrative power, only procuratorial power. Indirectly led to the merger of the princes of the world and the chaos of the world.Therefore, Li Shimin will naturally not repeat the same mistakes in the future.

Judgments refer to the six military divisions of Si Gong, Sicang, Si Hu, Si Bing, Judiciary, and Si Shi, which correspond to the six departments of the imperial court. Prison and engineering water conservancy and other aspects of affairs.

Recording affairs and joining the army is responsible for supervising and impeaching the six officials of the prefecture, which is equivalent to the duties of the imperial court Yushitai and Shangshu Zuocheng.

As for the configuration of officials in the county, it is roughly the same as that of the Han Dynasty, and there are also positions such as county magistrate, master book, and county lieutenant.

The re-setting of the official structure is naturally to enhance administrative efficiency, and secondly, it is to reorganize the officials of the states, re-plan, select the best and appoint the competent, and abolish the incompetent officials.

Moreover, when the administrative agencies are adjusted together in this unified world, it is naturally the time when the resistance is the least, and when the resistance is the least, if there are dissatisfied people, they will be cleaned up together, wouldn't it be just right.

………………

While Li Shimin was in full swing making various preparations for the unification of the world, many major events had already happened in the world. Although some deviated from the historical track, they were actually happening again.

Because of the appearance of Li Shimin, the general situation of the world has changed a lot, but the fate of some people seems to be unable to escape the arrangement of fate.

In the 13th year when Li Shimin came to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, that is, in 196 AD, when Li Shimin attacked Cao Cao, Sun Jian took the opportunity to attack Jingzhou, but died at the hands of Huang Zu's generals, living a few years longer than the original historical time and space.Sun Ce took over his father's title. At this time, Yuan Shu was severely injured by Li Shimin's beating, so he had no power to get involved in Jiangdong.

In the following year, in 197 A.D., Sun Ce unified Jiangdong in advance, but the army was relatively weak, with only 20 navy and [-] infantry, totaling [-] people.

At this time, he was also staring at the nine counties in Jiangbei. Sun Jian sent reinforcements to support Cao Cao. On the way, they encountered the main force led by Lu Bu. Knowing that they had no chance, they withdrew to Jiangdong.Sun Ce, who is now taking over the throne, has the title of Little Overlord of Jiangdong. Naturally, he is not reconciled to being in a corner.

And Liu Biao in Jingzhou was not idle either, he was able to lure well, and he was both powerful and friendly, so that the thieves and tyrants in the territory could also be of use to him.Since then, Jingzhou has been purged for thousands of miles, and the people are satisfied, and Jingzhou has been completely pacified.
