Wanli 1592

Chapter 1174

At the end of February in the second year of Longwu, Han Yu, Minister of the Ministry of War of the Great Qin Dynasty, arrived in Bozhou with the money and articles rewarded by the emperor for the meritorious soldiers in the Battle of Bozhou, as well as the edict of rewards.

At this moment, the Banzhou army has been diverted, and it can be stationed in a new station only after the emperor's order arrives.

Everyone is looking forward to the emperor's reward edict.

For Han Zhuo, this might not be a bad job.

Since the founding of the Great Qin Dynasty, many divisions and reorganizations have been carried out on the original six ministries. A large number of departments have been split from the original six ministries and become independent departments. The Ministry of War has been divided into several parts.

Now the most powerful authority is the former Minister of War, Liu Huangshang, who serves as the General Staff of the Minister, not this simple department that only investigates materials, fills in materials, arranges promotions and orders according to the emperor's orders.

The Minister of Military Affairs of the Ming Dynasty held a high position, while the Minister of Military Affairs of the Great Qin Dynasty was basically a data administrator and did not have much real power at all. Now he can still pretend to be pretentious by virtue of the power of the previous dynasty. The future Minister of Military Affairs really can’t say What does it look like.

But Han Zhuo himself was not worried. As one of the bettors, all of them were appointed by the new dynasty after abandoning the previous dynasty.

He was not worried about other things. Han Zhuo knew very well that the task the emperor sent him to arrange sergeant rewards was to earn his qualifications and reputation, and lay the foundation for him to work in the cabinet later.

In the same way, Xu Guangqi was sent out to be in charge of locust control to lay the foundation for Xu Guangqi to enter the cabinet. Right now, only three cabinet ministers are far from meeting the emperor's needs. The emperor believes that at least seven cabinet ministers are needed to meet the daily needs of Daqin. The needs of government operations.

The emperor also complained that now he was taking on the work of the other four cabinet ministers, and he simply did not regard the emperor as the emperor. If the emperor should do everything, what would you ministers do?
But Han Zhuo is not a fool, he understands the leisure and contentment in the emperor's heart, and knows how happy the emperor is when he says such words, naturally, he dare not take it seriously.

But he also knew that it was true that the emperor wanted him to enter the cabinet after training, and that the emperor really needed more smart and capable helpers to handle government affairs. After the expansion of the central government, the workload suddenly increased, and Han Zhuo knew it clearly found out.

Now all ministers have the possibility to enter the cabinet as cabinet ministers in the future, and everyone is competing fairly on the same starting line, but if the emperor is optimistic about someone and gives him the opportunity to go out to do business and increase his qualifications, other people will not be envious.

It feels really good to be favored by the emperor.

Anyway, Han Zhuo thinks so.

This time, the 16 army and a large group of chieftains were rewarded, which was also a test given to him by the emperor. After arranging all these in detail, he would preside over the relocation of the army, build up the local defense, and then give the plan for the next stage. Laying the foundation is Han Zhuo's specific mission.

It cannot be completed in two or three months.

Han Zhuo arrived in Bozhou at the end of February, and what accompanied him was the emperor's reward. The seizures on Hailongtun had basically been registered and sent to the capital to be dedicated to the emperor. Except for Qi Dayong who was transferred back However, only the main general Zheng Yingxuan and the six main battle generals will return to the capital with Han Zhuo to report their duties after the war.

Now Qi Dayong is already on his way back to the capital, his reward will be given to him by the emperor in the capital, here is the reward belonging to the original Xuanwu battalion army.

Zheng Ying and the others had been waiting for Han Zhuo and others for a long time. Of course, the chieftains were even more anxious than Zheng Ying and the others.

However, Zheng Ying arrived in Bozhou in the afternoon, and near dusk, he exchanged pleasantries with the generals after arriving. After that, Han Zhuo said that he was exhausted from the journey, so he announced that he would bathe and change clothes in the morning, set up an incense table and read the imperial decree.

Everyone didn't think it was strange. In the evening, a reception banquet was held for Han Zhuo, and the soldiers were arranged to unload the emperor's rewards, and then they ate and drank.

Song Chengen, An Jiangchen and others had something on their minds, and took advantage of their status to toast Han Zhuo non-stop, trying to get some inside information with Han Zhuo non-stop, but after drinking for three rounds, Han Zhuo directly expressed that he was overwhelmed Drunk and dizzy, I went straight back to the camp to rest.

The chieftains looked at each other in blank dismay, but the generals enthusiastically dragged the chieftains to drink heavily, and basically drank them all to the ground.

Zheng Ying announced that the banquet was disbanded, and everyone went back to the camp to rest. After arranging the patrol at night, Zheng Ying also returned to his tent and turned off the lights to rest.

After more than an hour, Zheng Ying changed his clothes, and under the leadership of two soldiers, he quietly walked into Han Zhuo's tent.

At this moment, Han Zhuo was sitting on the bed waiting for Zheng Ying's arrival.

"Han Butang, Zheng is not too late, is he?"

Zheng Ying smiled and bowed to Han Zhuo, Han Zhuo got up and returned the salute, and said with a smile: "It's not too late, but if it was later, Han would have passed out, Han is really not very good at drinking , and those chieftains are really in a hurry to persuade you."

"There is something on my mind, so I am very anxious to persuade you. Those chieftains have been jumping up and down these days, fidgeting, thinking about what to do with Bozhou in the future."

Zheng Ying sneered: "How do they know that His Majesty has already made arrangements."

Han Zhuo also said with a smile: "Your Majesty naturally made arrangements earlier, but all of this will take time to arrange. Is everything arranged in place? Can we start at any time?"

Zheng Ying nodded.

"Well, you can start at any time. As long as the rewards are over, the biggest piece will be awarded to Song Cheng'en, and items will be rewarded to An Jiangchen. The five divisions and seven surnames will only be rewarded with the original ancestral land and some money, then everything can go smoothly according to the plan. , Within two or three years, there will be no peaceful days in the Southwest."

Han Zhuo nodded, his eyes brightened.

"It's time for us to act when they are exhausted from internal friction. Your Majesty has far-reaching wisdom. We started to arrange it more than two years ago. In this way, we will definitely do our best. The contribution at that time will not compare to this time. Be small."

Zheng Ying quickly waved his hands and laughed: "The credit belongs to His Majesty, how dare we wait for the credit?"

Han Zhuo also agreed, "Yes, they all belong to His Majesty."

The two smiled at each other.

"Okay, I won't say much else. Zheng Shuai also wants to know how His Majesty arranges the Xuanwu camp, right? Please sit down and let's talk slowly."

Zheng Ying's face became solemn, and he sat down with Han Zhuo: "Please tell Han Butang whether this matter has been settled, how His Majesty arranged for us to wait, and the news that the Seventh Battalion will be reorganized has reached us." It's not a day or two in my ears, how did His Majesty arrange it?"

Just now, Han Zhuo gave Zheng Ying a wink, and Zheng Ying made some arrangements, and now he came here in the middle of the night to spy, just like a secret agent, in order to understand how the emperor arranged the reorganization of the Seventh Battalion , this is the most important thing for Zheng Ying and others.

Han Zhuo nodded.

"This matter has been decided, and the list has been arranged. His Majesty has decided to reorganize the seven existing battalions into thirty armies. The field army and the cavalry army each have 3 troops, and the navy army has 2 troops. There are 15 people in the Central Imperial Guard directly under His Majesty, a total of 100 million regular officers."
