Ming politicians

Chapter 1103

Su Tiancheng has known about the large-scale adjustment of court officials for a long time. If such an adjustment has no effect on him, it does not exist. After years of painstaking efforts, he feels ruined. The first goal is to wipe out the rogues completely. This task was accomplished very well, and it was done very beautifully without leaving any sequelae. This is something to be proud of, but the second most important goal is to wipe out the Golden Tartars , but it is not so easy to complete. It can be said that all the situations laid down almost do not exist.

When Su Tiancheng arrived in Shaanxi, he started a large-scale layout, and this layout achieved very good results. He once held the lifeline of the Houjin Tartars in his hands, and the battles between Gaizhou and Liaodong were fully demonstrated In spite of the importance of the layout, judging from the current situation, the emperor is very likely to destroy all of this with his own hands, and the hard-won results will no longer exist in a short time.

At this time, Su Tiancheng finally understood the importance of power. Why so many people want to be emperor, there is a primitive impulse to hold the greatest power, and I am afraid that there is also a desire to realize their ambitions, just like the current Su Tiancheng, If you can grasp sufficient power, you can mobilize a large army to defeat the Golden Tartars in one fell swoop until they are completely wiped out.

Regret is useless, it is still too late to wake up in time and re-arrange everything.

Su Tiancheng analyzed the current situation. The Guanning Jin line of defense in Liaodong is extremely strong. It is impossible for the Houjin Tatars to break through in a short time, but it is impossible for Liaodong to be peaceful. Guangning is too close to Shenyang. It is possible to attack Shenyang directly, which is a huge threat to the Houjin Tatars, even if they cannot attack Guangning in a short time.Huang Taiji of Hou Jin would also think of other ways to deal with it, such as causing banditry, for example, making Guangning unsafe all the time, etc., using such methods to slow down the Ming army's control of Guangning.

Liaodong must operate well, and Guangning and Xipingbao were taken back.The threat to the capital is gone for the time being, and the area that can be occupied is also very large. Relying on an army of less than 10 people, stationed in Liaodong in peacetime, the number may be too many, but in wartime, a [-] army is far from enough. Liaodong today.The three most critical points are Guangning, Dalinghe City, Jinzhou, and Shanhaiguan. From the perspective of location, Guangning becomes extremely important. Once Guanning is lost, Heishan, Yizhou, Dalinghe City and even In Jinzhou, they will encounter direct threats.

In the Datong area, there is basically no threat.The Xibe tribe and the Daur tribe have maintained the border very well, but it also depends on the new governor of Datong.How to treat the Xibe and Daur tribes, if they are too arrogant, there must be problems.

Su Tiancheng has an impression of Shi Kefa and Wang Daozhi, and these two people also had a certain reputation in history, especially Shi Kefa.He has a very good combat ability and his bones are very hard. The fact that such a person is sent to Liaodong shows that the imperial court still has some considerations, not because it ignores the situation in Liaodong.As for letting Wang Dao go straight to Datong, Su Tiancheng didn't know where he came from.

Su Tiancheng knew that Zhou Yanru was capable, but no one could guarantee whether Zhou Yanru would use all his abilities in the affairs of the court. [

Lu Xiangsheng is about to come to Dengzhou. The [-] troops stationed in Xuanzhou have long been wiped out and no longer exist. Even if Lu Xiangsheng went to Xuanzhou, he is also a bare-handed commander. First of all, there are no soldiers left. Xuanzhou, so Su Tiancheng is not too worried, and I believe that Lu Xiangsheng will not return to the capital to sue.

Su Tiancheng will not be idle when the imperial court adjusts candidates on a large scale.

The transformation of Shandong has already begun. Su Tiancheng also has to consider the candidates. The most important are the prefects of Jinan Prefecture, Yanzhou Prefecture and Dongchang Prefecture. These three positions are very crucial. Don't think about how much power you have for the time being, the main reason is that the goal is too big.

Su Tiancheng has a lot of talents under his command, but the army has too many talents. Under the current circumstances, it is not very appropriate to send too many officers from the Jiangning Battalion to the local area. What's more, the Jiangning Battalion has recruited a large number of sergeants, and the officers need to work hard to integrate them.

Regarding the adjustment of candidates, Su Tiancheng has been thinking about it for a long time, and there are still problems, such as what to do with the prefects appointed by the imperial court, where to place them, how the new prefects will perform their duties, how to carry out the large-scale transformation of the local area, etc. Wait, these issues are very detailed and need to be carefully considered, and the most important thing is that officials at all levels of government in Jinan, Yanzhou and Dongchang are almost sent to Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou. It is impossible to carry out Su Tiancheng's orders well, let alone consider the common people wholeheartedly.

Incorporating the whole of Shandong under its command will inevitably increase the expenses. In fact, with the prosperity of the wharf business, only Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou can no longer meet the needs of merchants. A large number of workshops need to be built. These workshops , it needs to be in a place where the population is concentrated, a large number of transactions between merchants are going on, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger, and there needs to be sufficient places to guarantee it. This year, it is no different than a few hundred years later, houses with reinforced concrete structures , It can be built up many layers, and the shops that merchants rely on for transactions also need sufficient purchasing power.

All of these means financial resources, money pouring in, Su Tiancheng has no reason to refuse.

So while the imperial court adjusted personnel, Su Tiancheng also began to adjust the officials in Shandong.

In the Governor's Mansion, Zhu Shenxuan, Hong Chengchou, Lu Shanji, Qu Qingze, Sun Chuanting, Bi Maokang, Zhang Pu and others all had serious expressions.

Su Tiancheng was talking about what was planned.

"...From the perspective of our needs, Shandong must be completely under our command. No matter how the court responds, or what kind of decision the emperor will make, we must do it. Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou, etc. It is already difficult to accommodate so many merchants. With the increase of workshops and shops, we must make some changes. Fuzhou and Xuanzhou are not suitable for development for the time being. Those places may face battles in the future. Therefore, Jinan Prefecture, Yanzhou Prefecture, and Dongchang Prefecture must undergo large-scale adjustments, and carry out comprehensive adjustments in accordance with the model of Dengzhou, Laizhou, and Qingzhou."

"Adjustment involves three aspects. The first is the complete replacement of government officials. This is somewhat difficult, but not too great. There are not many officials in various local governments, and resettlement is not a big problem. The magistrates, Tongzhi, Officials such as Tongju, magistrate, county magistrate, and Zhubo, that is, officials with high rank, are not retained in principle. As for the replaced officials, they are directly asked to go to the capital to find Lord Zhou Yanru. Will sit idly by."

"The second aspect is the abolition of the guards. All the guards in Shandong will be abolished, and none will be retained. Local security is mainly in the charge of the inspection department. The strength of the inspection departments in various places must be greatly strengthened. , In this regard, we should not be afraid to spend more money, we must use the money that should be used, and when the place is stable, we will have the energy to do great things.”

"The third aspect is the change of land policy. Dengzhou, Laizhou, and Qingzhou, including Fuzhou and Xuanzhou, strictly prohibit land mergers. Merchants who do business here are not allowed to buy land arbitrarily. Merchants can It is probably the most difficult to invest money in workshops and commerce, but it is not allowed to be invested in land purchases. The scholar-bureaucrat class in Shandong may strongly oppose it. If you want to live here in Shandong, you have to obey the government's request, otherwise I will ask you to leave Shandong."

"As for the candidates for the government, I have considered three candidates for the prefect, and we will discuss the rest of the candidates. The prefect of Yanzhou Prefecture is appointed by Xu Jili, the prefect of Dengzhou Prefecture, and the prefect of Dongchang Prefecture is appointed by the prefect of Dengzhou Prefecture Gu Xingsong. , Su Tiancheng is the magistrate of Jinan Prefecture, temporarily in charge of all matters of Jinan Prefecture, as for the prefect of Jinan Prefecture, I consider asking Yan Zizhang to be in charge.”[

"To bring the whole of Shandong under our command, the status of Jinan Prefecture is very important. After all, the location of Shu Governor's Yamen and the Third Division is estimated to become the next economic and trade center of Shandong Province, so the construction of Jinan Prefecture is very important. Yes, the future government settings will also be different, and we must attach great importance to it."

"I know that you are worried about the imperial court's views, and wondering if the imperial court will take any action. You can rest assured that we will act at this time, and the imperial court will not take any action. This time Zhang Pu continues to serve as the governor of Shandong, which explains everything. Mr. Zhou Yanru has just been appointed as the chief assistant of the cabinet, so he doesn't want to cause trouble at this time. Besides, the Jiangning camp is not easy to mess with. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we must vigorously promote many matters. Once we take root in Shandong, we will further strengthen our With strength, the rest of the matter will be much simpler.”

"His Royal Highness Jin Wang is directly responsible for all adjustments this time, with Zhang Pu's assistance. Regarding the division of labor between you, I repeat, His Royal Highness Jin Wang is directly responsible for the daily affairs of the Governor's Mansion. Hong Chengchou is responsible for the specific affairs of the Jiangning Camp. Sun Chuanting Focus on the navy of the Jiangning battalion, Bi Maokang focuses on the firearms of the Jiangning battalion, and Lu Shanji will also assist in managing the cavalry and infantry of the Jiangning battalion. Qu Qingze is still focusing on intelligence matters. Zhang Pu has completed the adjustment of the Shandong garrison After the matter, assist His Royal Highness King Jin to take charge of the daily affairs of the Governor's Mansion, focusing on the management of people's livelihood."

"I hope that you can do your best. We still have a lot of tasks, and some things need to be carried out together, but we can't pursue speed too much. Everything must be perfect." (To be continued...)
