Reborn Wu Dalang

According to Wu Dong's suggestion, the entire Liangshan can be divided into six provinces, Koryo Province, Liaodong Province, Northern Province, Yanyun Province, Mongolian Province, and Hedong Province. The Northern Provinces include Shangjing, Zhongjing and They radiate a large area of ​​territory, and Yanyun Province includes large areas of territory such as Yanjing and Datong.

In ancient China, "province" was one of the highest power organs. From the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was "Shang Province" until later "three provinces and six ministries".Historically, during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, there was a "So-and-so Daoxingtai" to manage the military, political and civil affairs of dozens of states and counties, but there were no non-established institutions.After the middle period of the Jin Dynasty, the permanent institutions of the provinces really appeared in China. It was not until the Yuan Dynasty that the provincial system was completely fixed. The provinces became an indispensable and important institution for the country to rule the local area. Provincial system to maintain local rule.Wu Dong put forward this concept early.

Below the provinces are prefectures and counties, which stand side by side and have the same status.The entire Liangshan implements a three-level ruling system of the central government, provinces, and prefectures and counties.

For such a ruling system, the Military Aircraft Department has passed.Now Liangshan has a vast territory, which is no longer the situation where there were only two places in Korea and Hedong. Naturally, such a large territory cannot be managed according to the previous extensive method.In the past, all states and counties were directly managed by the central government. When the territory was small, there was nothing to do. When the territory was large, this greatly affected the administrative efficiency of the central government.Now it can only be that the central government manages the provinces and the provinces manage the localities.

It's just that since then, the heads of each province still need to be elected and appointed.

Starting from July 7, the Military Aircraft Department began to discuss this issue, and the discussion was very intense.

There is no dispute in the Mongolian province, but Hu Sanniang is the governor.

Koryo Province, this was originally the most important place in Liangshan, where the economy is the most developed and the people are the most stable. Now Wudong, Huarong, Li Gang, Wu Yong, Gongsun Sheng and others have all come to Yanjing, and the rest of Liangshan in Koryo Zhu Gui was the only person in the top management. Zhu Gui was originally the head of the intelligence agency, but now he is the deputy head of the Liangshan Thought Reform Group.In terms of seniority, he is the only one who can serve as the governor of Goryeo Province, but neither Wudong, Huarong, Li Gang, nor Gongsun Sheng are very optimistic about Zhu Gui's ability. Let Zhu Gui lead such an important Goryeo Province. I'm afraid it's wrong.

In Hedong Province, Lin Chong, Zhu Wu, Wu Song, Yue Fei, etc. all left Hedong, and now only Hu Yanzhuo is left, but Hu Yanzhuo is also the commander of the Eighth Army, so let him serve as the governor. People also disagree.In the view of many people in the Military Aircraft Department, the separation of the military and the government should be implemented now, and the soldiers should concentrate on leading the army and must not interfere in civil affairs.It was the right of Jiedu envoys at the end of the Tang Dynasty to mount horses to manage the army and dismount the officials and the people. It was this kind of right that made the Central Plains full of feudal vassals and towns, which led to the complete demise of the Tang Dynasty.

As for the Northern Province and Liaodong Province, no specific person in charge has been found yet.

Yanjing Province, at present, seems to be under the direct control of the central government.

The Military Aircraft Department has discussed it for several days, but has not come to a conclusion until now.

Wu Dong smiled wryly in his heart, thinking that Liangshan still lacks talents.Originally, Liangshan only governed Koryo and Hedong, but suddenly began to govern the entire north, and there was a severe shortage of talents.At present, it seems that the best way is to transfer the officers in the army to the civilians and let the officers be in charge of civilian affairs.In later generations, when the whole country was liberated in 49, China also faced the problem of lack of talents. At that time, a large number of high-ranking military officials were turned into civil officials. For example, Chen Yi became the mayor of Shanghai, Deng and others were in charge of the Southwest Bureau, and Peng Xi and others Responsible for the Northwest Bureau and so on.Generally speaking, to become an excellent general in the army, he must have high management ability. They can manage the army well, and there are not many problems in managing the place.

But now, the military war in Liangshan has not yet ended, and it is not appropriate to hastily convert a large number of military officials into civilian officials.

"Governor, we should give up the principle for the time being and let the soldiers manage civil affairs! Don't implement the principle of separating the army and the people for the time being! Only in this way can we rule this vast area! In the next few years, we will vigorously discover talents and transfer them to At a civil post!" After the military aircraft meeting that day, at night, when everyone was having dinner, Hua Rong came to Wu Dong's side and said.

"It seems like this is the only way!" Wu Dong nodded.

It was not until the Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th that the governors of each province were elected one after another.Hu Sanniang is the governor of Mongolia, and Zhu Gui is the governor of Koryo. Qin Hui, as the deputy minister of the Propaganda Department, does not need to go to Yanjing for the time being, but assists Zhu Gui in Koryo. But the talent is extremely high. During this time, Li Gang, Gongsun Sheng and others had contact with Qin Hui many times when they were in Korea. They have been deeply impressed by Qin Hui. It was these two people who suggested that Qin Hui assist Zhu Gui.Yang Zhi concurrently served as the acting governor of the Northern Province as the commander of the First Army, Sun Li concurrently served as the acting governor of the Liaodong Province as the commander of the Fifth Army, and Hu Yanzhuo concurrently served as the commander of the Eighth Army as the acting governor of the Eastern Province. Acting governor of the province.Yanjing Province is still directly managed by the central government.

It has been almost a month since the meeting.

Everyone celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival until the afternoon of August 8, when the military aircraft meeting was held again. This time, it was to discuss Liangshan's next strategy.

Most members of the Military Aircraft Department believe that the stability of the north should be maintained now, and the next step of the combat plan will begin after the north is stabilized.The army needs to rest, reorganize, and expand, and it will take some time.When a large number of people are introduced from the Song Dynasty to the north, these will also require the army to maintain order, and the army cannot be dispatched temporarily.

In addition, the Military Aircraft Conference officially confirmed the location of the capital of Yanjing. Yanjing City replaced the former Koryo Kaijing City and became the central seat and the central resident.

At the military aircraft meeting, many businessmen also attended the meeting.Every night, Wu Dong had to negotiate with many businessmen. He encouraged these businessmen to invest in Liangshan, conduct business in Liangshan, and even encourage these businessmen to conduct overseas trade.In addition, the Military Aircraft Conference also passed many business-related resolutions, which gave various benefits to businessmen.For example, in Shangjing, Zhongjing and other places, the commercial tax will be one-third of that of other places within three years, and some products related to the national economy and people's livelihood can be exempted from commercial tax again!In addition, Wu Dong also encourages these businessmen to participate in politics. If they have any good business plans, they can report to the central government, and the central government will reward the businessmen according to these business plans!

"The governor said that we can even supervise the government. If the government in various places has any illegal behavior, we can directly report it to the central government, and the central government will make decisions for us! After thousands of years, the status of our merchants has finally improved!" Chai Jin said somewhat said excitedly.

In the past dynasties of China, the status of merchants was very low.In the Song Dynasty, commerce was developed, but the status of merchants was extremely limited, and truly capable people disdain to do business.Chai Jin is the richest businessman in Hebei after the royal family of the Later Zhou Dynasty, but he also has some reputation in the Jianghu. This reputation is still based on "urgency and kindness". Friends in the Jianghu came to provide some money in exchange.As for Lu Junyi, he is the richest businessman in the Daming Mansion, but his status is not as good as that of Chai Jin. The government will kill him if they want to, and he has no power to resist.

"I can participate in politics, and I can submit any suggestions for Liangshan to the central government. This is really unimaginable! I really hope that Liangshan will go south as soon as possible and bring down the Song Dynasty." Lu Junyi also said excitedly.

"Who doesn't think so among the businessmen who came here?" Chai Jin laughed.

"I'm already preparing to move my family to Yanjing City!" Lu Junyi said.

"Okay! It would be better for our family to move to Yanjing City! But this matter must be done secretly, so that the government cannot find out." Chai Jin said.

It was not until the end of August that the military aircraft meeting officially ended, and Liangshan's high-level leaders began to return to their garrisons one after another, while Liangshan's central government officially went to Yanjing!

The cabinet ministers are now on the road together, and someone has already notified their families to move them to Yanjing City.

"Governor, today, Liangshan has occupied half of the country, and you should be called emperor!" Huarong suddenly said on the road.

"Proclaim the emperor?" Wu Dong was taken aback, he had never thought about this question before.

"Only proclaiming the emperor can rule the north in a legitimate way!" Hua Rong said.

"Our political system hasn't really been established yet." Wu Dong shook his head.

What kind of political system should be implemented in the future, whether it should be an imperial system, a democratic system, or a restricted imperial system, etc. have not been discussed, nor have they discussed how to select officials in Liangshan in the future.Now only the core of power in Liangshan has been established. The current Liangshan system is a bit like the collective leadership system with someone as the core in later generations.

"This matter will be discussed slowly in the future! Ascending the throne and proclaiming the emperor is an extremely troublesome matter. Let's wait a little longer! Besides, even if I don't proclaim the emperor, can't I just rule the north? I, Liangshan The propaganda system is extraordinary, and no one from the top to the bottom of the army and civilians in the north will resist my rule." Wu Dong laughed.

Hua Rong nodded, he admitted this, Liangshan's propaganda system is too strong, Wu Dong's authority in Liangshan is much higher than that of Song Emperor in Song Dynasty, no one can contend, Wu Dong There is no problem ruling the North either.He just felt that proclaiming himself emperor was in line with the tradition, and the emperor was more suitable for Wu Dong's identity.

"Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye, the years of war go by so quickly!" Wu Dong said with a soft sigh.

He left Yanyun with Yue Fei in the first month, and now it is late August, and there are still more than three months before the Chinese New Year.

"Governor, our central government has come to Yanjing City. The King of Korea, the Emperor of Liao Kingdom and others should also be sent to Yanjing. We can rest assured that they are under our watchful eyes." Zhu Wu said suddenly.

"Not bad!" Wu Dong nodded.

"Although we are not attacking Xixia now, we should also consider the matter of Xixia." Zhu Wu said again.
