Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

A large number of soldiers and horses marched in a hurry after receiving the order. Before and after Zhang Shouren arrived in Linqing, the entire area from Jiaozhou to Fushan had become a large barracks.

The place where the Fushan Thousand Households were originally located, which is now the real headquarters of the Fushan Army, has officially become the exclusive area for this big dispatch.

"Old Camp", that's what many Fushan soldiers call this place.In its center is a big camp, which can accommodate nearly 3 people to practice and station here. Of course, there are not so many people now, and about 6000 people are normally stationed here.

In the south of it, the area with a radius of [-] miles is all belonged to Jiangzuo Office. Just a firearms bureau in Jiangzuo Office covers an area of ​​nearly [-] miles. During the exercise trial, every day from morning to before dark, the sound of rumbling cannons can be heard in a radius of tens of miles.

Further south, there are various factories such as salt farms and smoke farms. In the southeast direction is the original Zhangjiabao and several seaside military forts. Now it has become a coastal defense area and storage area. The goods shipped from the south have Many are placed here, and many are stored in Lingshan Guard on the other side of the sea. Now the main force of the navy has moved to Dengzhou Water City to set up camp, and some remain in Fushan as an offshore defense force. [

The coastal defense project has been going on for several years, and most of the failed experiments of the Firearms Bureau are placed in those permanent forts.A large number of shells and gunpowder can guarantee that few people can defeat Fushan at sea.Even under the premise that the northern pirates were wiped out, Zhang Shouren never gave up the defense of the sea outside Fushan... Dangerous enemies are not only in Liaodong, but also from the sea.

At the pinnacle of it all was a spot at the northern end of the barracks and at the southern end of the family quarters.

The headquarters of all the military, government, military orders, and military supplies of the entire Fushan are located here.

In this small area, the most important thing is of course the location of Zhang Shouren's festival hall. From the conference hall to the reception room, the sand table room, the attendant's room and the reception room of the Central Military Department, etc., it is just the location of the festival hall. , but in fact there are fifty or sixty houses with complete supplies and facilities. It was built when Zhang Shouren left Fushan for Huguang, and it has not served its owner once until now.

On the left hand side of the festival hall, there is also a camp office consisting of fifty or sixty houses interlocking with each other.

The Bureau of the Secretariat, the Archives Bureau, the Tuntian Bureau, the Civil Affairs Bureau...the bureaus are lined up, and as far as the eye can see, there are bustling officials and officials in various costumes.

There were a total of [-] civil servants and [-] officials in Ming Dynasty, a considerable part of which originally served in the army.But like many failed systems in the Ming Dynasty, there must be far from enough officials in the army, and they simply cannot afford the management and coordination of the army's daily affairs.For these, civil servants definitely don't care... Originally, they didn't want the army to be able to do their own thing, and the result they wanted was that they couldn't afford it.

But regardless of other places, Zhang Shouren's use of officials is already the top of all major military towns.

There are more than [-] official officials who are not in the official stream but have high salaries and honors. Of course, these more than [-] people are not only serving the Fushan soldiers, but also related to many local investments, such as The two overall situations of Tuntian and Civil Affairs used a lot of officials.

Above the officials, there are officials from the sixth rank to the ninth rank. This is the first-rate official, who needs to be recorded by the official department, including the experience of the experience department and the warehouse ambassador, and then to the secretary and the pianist.

There are hundreds of these people alone, and every time they report to the official department, the officials have a headache. Fortunately, Zhang Shouren is a generous man, and he is not reluctant to spend money because of Xue Guoguan. Under the experience divisions of more than a dozen guards, this made the Fushan civil official system not only have small officials with no rank, but also a large number of officials wearing the official civil official robes of the imperial court.

Only in this way can we win people's hearts and convince them.

Of course, it’s more than that. Zhong Xian, the earliest tax collector, was recommended to be an official official of the imperial court, and became an official of Zhengyin hall in Jimo...Of course, Zhong Daling never stayed in Jimo for a day, and the whole of Jimo was in Fushan. Under the control of various bureaus, there is no big order to sit in the hall, and everything is in order, without any chaos.

The first area of ​​the camp office is called the "garden". It is also a small garden in the deepest part of the courtyard. Xiuzhu, green grass, and leisure time after work can relax the tense mood and swollen mind.

However, after the garden of the camp office was repaired, a square pavilion in the depths of the bamboo forest was simply occupied by Zhong Xian, the general office of the camp office and a group of assistants.Because the place is good, the air is good, and the view is good, you are not afraid of eavesdropping. Any meetings in the camp office are simply held in this pavilion. Everyone discusses business in the picturesque place, and it happens to relax, even if there is some anger. Invisibly, it disappeared without a trace.

Today's meeting is not just a simple discussion of business affairs between the staff of the Operations Office.

In fact, there was a meeting a few days ago, when it was decided to dispatch the minutes of the meeting to convene the army, and then notify the people left behind in Fushan in the Central Military Department to send out horses and messengers to deliver letters.

A few days later, when almost all the army arrived at the designated place, the second meeting was held as scheduled.

When everyone got together, the handyman in the camp affairs office brought tea, and then quickly retreated. The number of tea bowls was also prepared in advance, no more, no less, exactly eleven. [

There are three people in the camp affairs office, Zhong Xian, Li Xin, and Zhang Deqi.

In addition, the Military Law Department, the Logistics Department, the General Operations Department, the Central Army Department, and the General Staff Department are more or less everywhere. When added together with the battalion affairs department, there are exactly 11 people.

"Together with Rongcheng's team of two sentinels, the entire Dengzhou has been exhausted by us."

"That Ma Hongjun from the navy camp pestered me all day yesterday, saying that he wanted us to bring the navy with him...it made me dizzy."

"Tell him to come and find me. I'll tell him."

"Haha, don't dare to kill him."

The last one to speak was Zhong Rong, the host of the battalion master, and the official position of magistrate only increased his majesty, so that people would not dare to offend him easily... In the hearts of many Fushan generals, the fixed thinking that civilian officials are a head higher than military officials is still very serious At least, in the eyes of people like Ma Hongjun, Zhong Rong's status is not something he can easily offend. If he offends this master, the consequences will be serious, and it's really not something to play around with.

There are important matters in Fushan, and people from all over the place will be discussed together. After a resolution is formed, military orders can be issued in the name of the Battalion Office. The Central Military Office is responsible for the implementation, and the Military Law Office supervises. Collaborative execution.

This system, of course, cannot be the creation of this era, but Zhang Shouren's decision.

It is impossible for him to stay in Fushan all the time, and under normal circumstances, the various places in Fushan can do things on their own and be in an orderly manner, so as not to fall into chaos. What about the reaction?At that time, there will be no sound mechanism, or it will be easy to make individuals bigger and become difficult to control, or they will be left behind, which will also cause serious problems, or they will be panicked and ineffective in emergency situations to speak of.

Therefore, there is this kind of meeting system. Each executive will elect a left-behind "executive committee". If you don't pass, you can start again if you don't pass, until you pass.

Each branch has its own left-behind territory, and the executive committee members participating in the meeting don’t have to worry about being oppressed or forced to vote. Although the camp affairs office is the leader and the brain of each place in Fushan, it doesn’t have the consent and careful cooperation of other places. , the camp affairs office is also difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

All in all, even though Chen Zilong, a well-known scholar in the south of the Yangtze River, never participated in the specific affairs of Fushan's internal system, when he mentioned the executive committee, he admired and admired him very much.

Zhong Rong looked at the crowd and saw that everyone was seated in batches, so he said with a serious face: "At the last meeting, according to the trend of the court, we decided to prepare military supplies in advance for use when the adults were ordered to guard Shandong. Your Excellency ratifies our decision and expresses our approval. Five days ago, we found out through Fushan’s own military post that the court had decided that your Excellency should be the general town of Shandong, so we decided to mobilize all the garrisons and prepare to rush to Jinan, except for necessary forts and important places. In addition, no troops will be stationed, and the troops will be mobilized to the greatest extent. Even Jinan, including the supply battalion, will be mobilized... The scale of troop mobilization is unprecedented in Fushan, including infantry and cavalry, as well as chariot and artillery battalions. , the heavy engineering battalion, and the artillery battalion have a total of 3000 people. There are more than 3 riverboats mobilized for troop mobilization alone, and there are also [-] hard labor. The prefectures of Gaomi and Qingzhou have mobilized spares. Although there are heavy engineers and soldiers, but there are more hard labor, the burden on the army when marching is reduced, and they can march at the fastest speed... Now that all the troops are in place, we can wait until after our meeting. Hurry to Jinan!"

Zhong Rong was originally just an ordinary clerk of the lowest level in the Thousand Households Office. He was the kind who claimed to give two buckets of rice a month, but never got it all. Compared with the officials of the county yamen, the rank is the same, but the income is very different. It is common for the officials of the guards to go hungry and cold, and it is common to be beaten and insulted. He was promoted and reused by Zhang Shouren at the lowest ebb, and after he was recommended as county magistrate, it may be because he felt that he was greatly gracious, and he worked wholeheartedly. He slept for less than three hours a day, and was extremely busy. Not taking a break, Zhang Shouren was very relieved to have such a person staying behind.

At this time, he stopped military affairs and dispatched 10 troops and servants. There was no sign of panic on his face, he looked at everyone with piercing eyes, and his voice was heavy and decisive, as if he was a friend of gold and stone!
