I want to be emperor

Luo Zhixue's sense of Hebei governor Xia Jialiang wasn't good, but it wasn't bad either.

From Luo Zhixue's point of view, Xia Jialiang, who was born in the Ming Dynasty and joined him during the Unification War, is very smart, but sometimes he is too smart.

The reason why this person is smart is that even though he has been working in the Ministry of Ethics and Education for a long time, he still maintains a strong learning attitude. During the several years of working in the Ministry of Ethics and Education, he learned a lot of new knowledge by self-study , especially proficient in industrial and commercial affairs.

Then he forcibly changed himself from a traditional scholar-born official to a new-style official, thus getting rid of the fate of many former Ming officials who surrendered: After the Great Chu Empire unified China, they successively retired or retired to the second line.

During the unification of China by the Great Chu Empire, in order to reduce the resistance of the Ming Dynasty, and also because there was indeed a lack of a large number of officials during the initial period of the empire, a large number of officials from the pre-Ming Dynasty were accepted, most of them were middle and low-level officials, but there were also many high-level officials. .

However, after the Great Chu Empire completely overthrew the Ming Dynasty, the Great Chu Empire set off frequent and very high-intensity rectification of officials.

In addition to the routine fight against corruption, it is to kill a former Ming Dynasty survivor in the official team.

During this process, a large number of officials who defected from the former Ming Dynasty were sacked because of corruption and infidelity.

At the same time, many defecting officials chose to take the initiative to serve because they could not adapt to the official rules of the Great Chu Empire.

Of course, there are also some people who surrendered at the beginning but chose out of desperation. After surrendering, their wealth and lives were guaranteed, and they chose to retire. These people still have some backbone and look down on the monarchs and ministers of the Great Chu Empire who were born as bandits.

Of course, more officials who surrendered were unable to keep up with the many changes in the Great Chu Empire.

Being an official in the Great Chu Empire is quite different from being an official in the Ming Dynasty.

For example, in the Great Chu Empire, people's livelihood economy was very important. In the assessment of local officials, people's livelihood economy was a very important item, and its importance was comparable to that of ethics and the rule of law.

Many surrendered officials had difficulty keeping up with this change in thinking. They were unable to do what they wanted in the officialdom of the Great Chu Empire, and they were unable to be promoted or even marginalized in the end.

Especially when the students trained by Guozijian University and other universities began to enter the officialdom of the Great Chu Empire in large numbers, it was very common to replace the old with the new.

Under such a general situation, officials who were originally defected officials from the former Ming Dynasty were actually able to climb all the way up the officialdom of the Great Chu Empire, and they even climbed to the position of second-rank governor.

Xia Jialiang is one of the few.

During his tenure in the Ministry of Rites and Education, he spent a lot of time and energy in contacting and learning various new disciplines, and published many important articles in the economic field.

Later, he was sent to the local government to become an official, step by step, from the magistrate to the magistrate, then to the chief envoy, and finally in the 24th year of Chengshun, he was promoted to governor of Hebei.

Being able to be promoted smoothly all the way means that he has done a good job in the local area, and he is still very good at developing people's livelihood and economic affairs.

But this person also has a shortcoming... He cries and complains at every turn, and he has a very thick skin.

When other people are officials in the local area, when they use secret papers, they report important and important matters, and they don't use secret papers frequently.

But Xia Jialiang was different. When he was working in the local area, he liked to write secret papers. Although he didn't write one every three days, he would write one every ten and a half months.

In the early years, Luo Zhixue specially sent secret letters to ask for greetings... Luo Zhixue didn't care at first, but when he found out that this person asked for greetings too frequently, he directly reprimanded him: From now on, he is not allowed to write secret letters to ask for greetings, wasting Imperial Postal resources!

Every secret letter of the governor level is delivered at the highest level of delivery speed. If you write a fucking secret letter, the staff of the postal department along the way will have to lose their legs!

Afterwards, Xia Jialiang didn't need to pay his respects with secret papers, but the frequency of secret papers still didn't decrease, and he talked about trivial matters.

It's raining heavily in Tianjin, and this person will write a secret booklet.

The sun was out in Tianjin for a few days, and he even wrote a secret book.

I also wrote a secret letter when I caught a cold. Nima’s writing was particularly sensational. Judging by the words and sentences, it even felt like arranging funeral arrangements. When Luo Zhixue saw this sick letter at the time, he thought Xia Jialiang's life is not long, and he even arranged for the imperial doctor to come...

How should I put it, although Luo Zhixue doesn't like this person very much in his heart, but at least he is a monarch and minister, and Xia Jialiang is also a great official of the empire.

This is not long after he got seriously ill, and he should be given the dignity he deserves, and it is also appropriate to send an imperial doctor to take a look.

In the end, within a few days, I received Xia Jialiang's secret report again, saying that he had recovered from the cold, and that he had gone to Dagukou for inspection, and there were a lot of sighs.

FUCK!

With a dark face, Luo Zhixue sent someone to chase the imperial doctor back, and then specially went to order: In the future, if there is no important matter, you will not go to the secret book, otherwise I will let you know what the wrath of the emperor is!
For this matter, Luo Zhixue also specially improved his secret seal system, strictly forbidding officials to use secret folds to pay respects, chat and beat farts, and not to use secret folds if it is necessary.

Because there are still quite a few officials, especially local officials who are similar to Xia Jialiang, and they all like to use secret scriptures to gain a sense of presence in Luo Zhixue...

They use secrets to create a sense of presence, but Luo Zhixue reads every secret... In the end, all he saw was a lot of trivial things.

So Luo Zhixue simply issued a decree not to allow them to write secret books.

It was only then that the secret record system of the Great Chu Empire evolved into a real channel for secret performances.

Through the secret report, I know that Luo Zhixue doesn't really like Xia Jialiang in his heart... If it wasn't for the fact that this person is really good at developing the local economy and developing the people's livelihood economy in Hebei well, Luo Zhixue would have put his Official hat off.

Seeing this Xia Jialiang now, seeing the old man's appearance of being moved to tears and even runny nose, Luo Zhixue sighed inwardly.

After pretending to be a harmonious monarch and his ministers, he said a few words before walking quickly to the military general on the other side.

Those who came to the train station were not only the local civil officials in Hebei headed by Xia Jialiang, but also generals from the military system.

The leader is General Luo Yang, the commander of the Third Army, in addition to the commander of the Fifth Cavalry Army, the commander of the No.12 Army, several division commanders, the garrison commander of Hebei Province and other local generals stationed in various places in Hebei.

Tianjin is not only the largest industrial base of the Great Chu Empire in the northern region, an economic center, a transportation hub, but also a military center.

The Third Army Command, one of the eight army-levels of the Great Chu Empire, was established here.

The Great Chu Empire currently has a total of eight Army Group Army Commands, which are responsible for field army training and combat affairs in different regions.

The First Group Army, with its headquarters in Yining, Turpan Province, and its various units were stationed in Central Asia, Turpan, Gansu, and Qinghai.

The Second Army, whose headquarters is stationed in Tobo City, Ob Province, has branches all over Siberia. It seems to be spread over a wide area, but in fact it is the smallest army, with a combined strength of just over 6. , because Siberia is vast and sparsely populated, the population is small, and naturally it does not need many troops. The main force of the group army, about 5 people, is deployed on the Ob River line, and the rear is basically a few hundred people here, and thousands of people there. put people.

The Third Group Army, with its headquarters in Tianjin, Hebei Province, has branches in North China, Northeast China, Monan, Mobei, and the Korean Peninsula. Because there is no external threat in this area, the actual war pressure is very small, and it seems that the troops are not strong. There are few, but basically the second-line troops are the main force. In the huge Third Army, there are only two first-class divisions, one deployed in Tianjin and the other deployed in Liaodong.

The Fourth Army, with its headquarters in Chengdu, has its military divisions in Sichuan, Dongkang, and Xikang. This army is mainly for the remnants of the local chieftains, and does not have the ability and demand for large-scale external expansion...because the opposite is the Himalayas ... So the total force is actually not much, and there is not even a military-level organization under its command, all of which are directly at the division and brigade level.

The Fifth Group Army, with its headquarters in Guangzhou, has its troops stationed in Guangdong, Guangxi, South Chu, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Annan provinces in southern China. The troops in this area are mostly amphibious troops and jungle troops because of the coastal areas and the combat needs of the Nanyang Peninsula. Troops and mountain troops are the main ones. The troops used by the Great Chu Empire for the expansion of the Nanyang region and the Indian region are basically drawn from the group army.

The Sixth Group Army, with its headquarters in Jinling, has its troops deployed in Fujian and Zhejiang, Jiangnan, Jiangbei, Anlu, Jiangxi and other places. A considerable part of the supporters in the Americas was drawn from the Sixth Army.

The Seventh Army has its headquarters in Zhengzhou, and its troops are mainly stationed in Henan, Shandong, Shanxi, Chubei and other places. This is a typical internal defense army, with the core of controlling the Central Plains, and it is also one of the strategic reserves. What a shame, but in fact there are a lot of heavy troops. Zhengzhou, a transportation hub, has at least 3 first-class combat readiness troops deployed all year round.

There is also the Eighth Army, which was only established in recent years. Its headquarters is stationed in Singapore, Malacca Province, and its troops are mainly deployed in various parts of Southeast Asia.

This group army is also the only group army headquarters in the overseas region in the Great Chu Empire. Its troops are very scattered, and because it needs to carry out landing operations and suppress local aborigines, its troop configuration is mainly based on amphibious and mountain light troops.

No way, you can't count on how good the transportation conditions will be on the overseas indigenous territory, and you can't expect to have convenient supplies, no, so the strength and equipment level of the army is already very good in the eyes of the indigenous people Forced, but in fact, within the Great Chu Empire Army, they are basically at the level of lightly armed troops!

It is worth noting that the various armies of the Great Chu Empire did not actually have a strict concept of defense zone, and it did not say that the military affairs of a certain province need to be under the jurisdiction of a certain army.

The group army of the Great Chu Empire is not a regional command organization, but a standard field command organization.

The defense zone is just because the field forces under the field armies are stationed in the above-mentioned areas, but it does not mean that the defense of these places is under the jurisdiction of a certain army.

To be precise, the local defense of each place is under the jurisdiction of the garrison command of each province.

The field troops of the first-class or second-class divisions of the field armies were transferred away because of military needs, but the third-class garrison divisions under the jurisdiction of the provincial garrison headquarters have always been there.

The headquarters of each group army, as well as the places where their troops are deployed, will be constantly adjusted according to different situations.

For example, the second group army, in fact, at the beginning, the group army was deployed on the front line of Xuanda, but now... people have gone to the Ob River Basin to fight with the Russians, and the headquarters has moved westward from Datong Road. Now They all ran to Tobo City.

Moreover, after several adjustments, the troop strength has dropped from 10,000+ people to the current scale of 6 people.

It is also worth noting that in addition to the eight major armies in the Great Chu Empire, there are many military-level troops directly under the jurisdiction of the Military Affairs Council, and there are quite a few...

For example, the No.20 Fourth Army, the field force in the direction of India.

There are also No.20 Sanjun in the direction of Fuso.

The army strength of the Great Chu Empire is divided into local garrison troops and field troops.

The local garrison is under the jurisdiction of the garrison command, and the field troops are under the jurisdiction of the group armies or the armies and divisions directly under the Military Affairs Council.

At the same time, the strength of each group army and army is not fixed, but will be adjusted according to the needs of the mission.

This point is actually similar to the coastal defense fleets and combat fleets in various parts of the navy. The navy has set up coastal defense fleets in almost every sea area, but these coastal defense fleets are mainly responsible for offshore patrols, escorts, and coastal defenses in the region, so they not only govern There are warships, and it also governs the shore forces of various naval bases, such as coastal defense batteries.

The combat fleet is a pure mobile combat fleet, mainly composed of four major fleets: the Northern Fleet, the South Sea Fleet, the Indian Ocean Fleet, and the Pacific Fleet.

The combat ships in these four major fleets are also frequently exchanged. A battleship may be in the Beiyang Fleet this year, but it may go to the Indian Ocean Fleet to serve in the Indian Ocean Fleet next year.

After Luo Zhixue briefly met a group of generals at the train station, he turned around and had a few words with the local civil officials, and then led a group of civil and military officials out of the train station and boarded the imperial carriage .

The imperial carriage pulled by six white horses was slowly advancing under the leadership of the dedicated rider of the imperial guards.

Luo Zhixue was sitting on the carriage, quietly watching the soldiers on both sides of the road and the people around the soldiers, occasionally waving his hand at the meeting and nodding with a smile on his face!

The people were very conscious and orderly beside them, knelt down and shouted long live when the imperial carriage passed by!
Don't doubt that the people are so self-conscious!
Because those who greet the people are the family members of the officials and the representatives of the local gentry. Everyone has passed the strict review of the Internal Affairs Department of the Imperial Academy, so that they are eligible to appear on both sides of the road.

As for ordinary people... there is nothing for them today.
