"With the recovery of Chungcheong-do and Jeolla-do, the focus of the next work is the governance of these places. The current problem is the lack of a large number of trustworthy officials. The original North Korean officials and scholars do not have enough work experience. They are not competent for our administrative system. I plan to set up an administrative school in Hanyang, and at the same time ask Chief Prosecutor Huang to set up a judicial school to train a large number of local officials.”

The entire southern part of the Korean peninsula has been recovered and connected together.

Although the war is still going on, local governance is related to the outcome of the war, and Wang Yun is very worried.

He reported the strategy to Zuo Menggeng.

"The long-distance water can't quench the near-thirst. Now we start training officials. When we can put them into practical work, the day lily will be cold. For the present plan, we can only transfer people from China, a large number of transfers. First, set up the administrative framework. By the way, we can Use this opportunity to train grassroots officials to facilitate our future expansion."

Zuo Menggeng's opinion is that the administrative school needs to be built, but the current administrative work cannot be delayed.

Since North Korean officials can't count on them, they can only transfer people from Xia Guo.

The administrative schools in Xia Kingdom have changed from the original one to three, located in Linqing, Huai'an and Songjiang respectively.

The increase in the number of schools, of course, has more ideas of training administrative officials, and another reason is checks and balances.

Zuo Menggeng is very clear that if everyone in a system comes from one place, it won't be long before it will naturally become intertwined, with constant cutting and chaos.

At that time, the interests will be intertwined and deeply rooted.It takes more effort to manage.

Now that the administrative school has been changed from one to three, the sources of officials have increased.

There is nothing involved with each other, and because of different origins, they are likely to conflict with each other, thus achieving the role of checks and balances.

In the future, the number of schools of administration will continue to increase, enriching the sources of officials.

Today, these three administrative schools have trained a large number of officials, and there are even many people waiting to be assigned positions.

However, Xia Guo did not continue to expand after eight years of Chongzhen, which made the arrangements of these officials stagnant.

Now it's just time to transfer to North Korea to take charge of the work here and gain experience by the way.At the same time, it can also help North Korea establish a local administrative system, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

His proposal was unanimously approved by Wang Yun, Jin Shangxian, Shen Qiyuan, Song Shilie and others.

With the cooperation of the spring plowing work, North Korean officials have already seen the strength of Xia's administrative system.

Among other things, the data from the land statistics alone make North Korean officials feel like a treasure.

With their own strength alone, it is impossible to obtain such accurate data in another hundred years.

And these things have a great effect on governance.

Xia Guo's administrative efficiency is even more astonishing.

It is because before May, the remedial work of spring plowing was completed, so that the Korean people everywhere had the hope of surviving.

Jin Shangxian and others thought to themselves that it was absolutely impossible to complete it based on their own words.

Excellent facts are in front of them, and North Korean officials know how to learn even if they are conservative.

"Yang Sichang was officially activated by the imperial court, ready to take action against the rogue bandits in the northwest. Yang Sichang proposed the strategy of four positives and six corners, and ten sides to spread the net. The only problem is that he needs to increase the military salary by [-] million taels. The Emperor Chongzhen did not have any accidents. Hands down on poor people."

Guo Ting reported the domestic situation to Zuo Menggeng, the most important of which was the court's movements.

Since the outbreak of the peasant uprising, for ten years, Yang Sichang was the only official who proposed an overall strategy of suppressing thieves to Chongzhen.

His approach has been greatly recognized by Chongzhen.

Chongzhen germinated again and gave Yang Sichang great power.

The only thing that made Chongzhen difficult was that Yang Sichang proposed that in order to implement his strategy, a full military expenditure of [-] million taels of silver was needed.

With such a large sum of money, Chongzhen was devastated.

The national treasury has long been empty, so it is naturally impossible to get it out.

He still has some money in his internal funds, but it is not enough to spend.

He is extremely unwilling to attack his relatives and reduce the treatment of the suzerain vassal.

No matter who suffers, you can't suffer from your own family!

then what should we do?

I have to suffer for the people.

In this April, Chongzhen officially issued an edict to increase the salary.

[The rogue bandits spread, and the living and the people were devastated.The thieves cannot be eliminated quickly without gathering troops to suppress them.Temporarily suffer from my people for a year, in addition to this serious trouble.Worry is in the four, and it is not a last resort, and the company is not doing well.The public only loses one point, and the poor have been stripped several times.A large poster was posted to describe the imperial court's intention to eliminate thieves for the people. 】

Seeing the information sent by Guo Ting, Zuo Menggeng was furious.

"This dog emperor knows everything, but he just likes to use the disabled people to succeed, and he is unwilling to wrong his relatives. The people of the world rebelled against him, and he deserved it."

It was not enough to scold him severely, Zuo Menggeng had someone prepare a pen and paper, and personally wrote a "Letter Refuting Chongzhen's False Love and False Thoughts".

"Send this article back to Shandong, print more, and distribute it all over the world."

Although Xia Guo has long since established itself, he and Daming are neither enemies nor friends.However, peace has been maintained between the two sides for a long time, and the well water does not violate the river water.

But this time, Zuo Menggeng fired directly.

"The fifth division sent a report, and Lou Fu personally led the [-]th and [-]th regiments to Quanzhou to accept Li Shifang's surrender. At the same time, the [-]th and [-]th regiments joined the artillery regiment and engineering regiment To the east, we have already attacked Jinchuan and Zengping, one step away from Chungju."

"What do you say over there?"

Zuo Menggeng was very pleased with the actions of the Fifth Division.

In the absence of orders from above, Lou Fu and others did not delay the recovery work of Chungcheong and Jeolla provinces, but began to focus on the follow-up operations.

This kind of subjective initiative undoubtedly greatly compensates for the lack of communication capabilities today.

Fu Xinyuan reported immediately.

"Chief of Staff Liu's suggestion is to integrate the Fourth Division and the Fifth Division to cooperate in the battle. Immediately attack northward and speed up, hoping to cause a certain blow to the Qing coalition forces."

Although internal opinions have been unified and the speed of attack has been slowed down to facilitate the split of the Korean peninsula, the Qing coalition forces cannot be completely let go.If that is the case, it will be very detrimental to the subsequent strategic deployment.

It is necessary to hurt the Qing coalition forces so that they understand the strength of the Xia army, and never dare to expect to go south again.

Under this purpose, there will inevitably be a big fight between the Xia Dynasty coalition forces and the Qing Dynasty coalition forces.

The commander-in-chief was Liu Yiyuan, and Zuo Menggeng didn't want to do it for him.Therefore, after understanding the situation, he only gave instructions to the First Marine Division.

"The [-]rd and [-]th Marine Regiments can go out of South Yangzhou and Gapyeong, posing a substantial threat to Chuncheon. At the same time, pay attention to guarding against the direction of Yangpyeong to the south. In any case, you must avoid being outflanked by the Qing Dynasty coalition forces. You are standing here, and the Qing Dynasty coalition forces are like a stalk. The larynx is beneficial for follow-up operations."

After actual research by Zuo Yong, Tang Wenhuan and others, they all agreed with Zuo Menggeng's judgment.

The third and fourth marine regiments set off from Hanyang, officially kicking off the prelude to the Battle of Chuncheon.
