Chapter 137: Don't understand

What no one expected was that Ye Tao did not wait to participate in the tactical strategy preparation meeting, but left a text message to Tan Weiming, and slipped away quietly when they were in the meeting. In the text message, Ye Tao claimed that he was not a member of the Blood Qi Army, and participated in the specific tactical strategy discussions and had a relatively large conflict with his authority. Second, he did not understand military affairs. Instead of making random ideas, it was better to coordinate the logistics production of the Blood Qi Army... In addition, it was to ensure that Suo Zheng would report to the Blood Qi Army's headquarters within a few days.

When Tan Weiming angrily and amusedly announced the news that Ye Tao had set off for Ninghe Town and read the text message in public, everyone was helpless and dissatisfied. Although Ye Tao was not a practical officer who was familiar with military affairs, he claimed that he did not understand military affairs, but he obviously evaded responsibility, was lazy, and disrespectful to the facts. However, everyone was very familiar with Ye Tao's personality and could not make any noise.

Don’t understand military? Then how did Ye Tao take the Blood Qi Army and the Xiling Army to circulate in the space between Xunshan Pass and Baishi City? How did he formulate a general battle plan to annihilate the entire Xiling Army in the country? To the minimum, how did Ye Tao, who did not understand military, establish the Blood Qi Army from scratch and establish a very complete system for the Blood Qi Army? How did he make the Blood Qi Army very obey him during the lectures and exercises? Is this something that a person who does not understand military can do?

From the king of the country, Tan Xiaopei, the commander of the imperial guards, Cha Ziming, the commander of the imperial guards, Chi Xianping, the general Zhuomang, Dai Yun, the governor of the Blood Qi army, to almost everyone in the Blood Qi army, they all think that the style of the Blood Qi army attaching importance to details, preparations, and striving for perfection is almost a copy of Ye Tao's character. Ye Tao actually said that he did not understand military affairs? Everyone had to stare at Ye Tao's rude and continue to discuss.

Of course, Dai Ye and Dai Ji were both puzzled. Wouldn't it be better if they were not from the Blood Qi Army? He had his military merits, but he was not at all responsible... Could it be that Ye Tao's temperament is so naive?

Ye Tao not only left when they were holding a military meeting. In order to avoid them coming up with any reason to keep him stranded near Danyang, he rushed to Ninghe Town, Shufeng Zhen, without even stopping in the Tiecheng. Two days later, when Chi Lei and the first batch of 500 scouts cavalry led by four elite soldiers from the Dai family who escorted the women and children of the Dai family to Danyang to carry out preliminary preparations, Ye Tao had already returned to Ninghe Town. Ninghe Town did not have much to wait for him to do, some, but in the past few days, Tan Weixin taught the murder game, and was tirelessly setting up a large group of people in the "killing situation".

Tan Weixin was bored. It happened that a large group of people around her were the same. The rules of the murder game were so simple, but they were enjoyable to play. At the beginning, everyone was worried that even if "killing" the princess in the game was a bit bad, but after the group of people became very talented, they no longer had these concerns. Those who participated in the game included Tan Weixin's two maids Sisi and Qiaoer, Dai Qiuyan and Sophie, Feng Zi, a guy who was extremely obsessed with this kind of intellectual game, Liu Yong, the general manager of the Princess's Mansion, and many people who were uncertainly pulled to gather the number of people to make the game more lively... Later, even Luo Ming was pulled down. Ye Tao was unexpectedly surprised by this situation, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Perhaps, it is because of this game that allows the group of people who participate in the game to temporarily abandon the gap between their status and status and sit together and make fun of each other. Or perhaps, Ye Tao of this era has to go through his own period of burnout again. When he did everything he could do almost everything he could in this era, although there were still many plans and things in front of him. But either it was beyond his ability, or it was too simple or it was not worth his action. He did not fantasize about becoming a person with grand ideals who "promote and destroy the country and continue the peerlessness". Naturally, he could not become one of the tribes of "picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and leisurely seeing the southern mountains". What else should he do in the future?

Some interesting news came from Qihai Trading Company. With the strong support of the Samir family, Qihai Trading Company finally gained a foothold in Nanyang. Dongping and Chunnan still maintained a "alliance" relationship. Although Chunnan's sea merchants bribed the pirates, Mr. Qi, who was originally a pirate, did not stay behind. Due to the powerful naval weapons such as Mars bombs, turbulent oil, etc., the Samir family, who had been operating in Nanyang for many years, gave a lot of support. After a few fierce mergers with the "pirates", Qihai Trading Company finally occupied a piece of land in Nanyang.

The locals called the Xieyin Islands and established a supply port. Although the location is a little remote, this step is of great significance. The spices from the Nanyang-Xiyin Islands-Yichenggang line have greatly encouraged the members of Qihai Trading Company to continue to expand and develop. New warships and armed sailboats are also actively constructed on Crescent Island. For Ye Tao, these can certainly allow him, who has unconditional dividends in Qihai Trading Company, to get a small amount of money. But the greater significance is that he can finally buy peppers continuously and steadily.

Ye Tao is not good at cooking, but he at least knows how to use pepper. The chefs Tan Weixin brought are not unfamiliar with things like pepper that are currently classified as spices rather than condiments. After a while, just a little bit of pepper sent by Qi Zhentao made them enjoy it very much.

But some people did not want to let Ye Tao be so relaxed. Although Ye Tao's departure clearly stated that he did not want to participate in the military decision-making about Yunzhou, Tan Weiming still sent the information from the Blood Qi army through the Dai family, through the relationship network of various families, through the internal security guards, as well as the war preparations for Xiling and Beiliao to Ye Tao. The various preparations underway by the Blood Qi army were also listed in the documents and sent one by one for Ye Tao to see.

Talking about the invincibility of the world and being powerless... This is Ye Tao's so-called military attainment. A large part of modern management is derived from the military system. It is not difficult to integrate these systems into the military with modern enterprise systems. In terms of military theory, if modern people who have a large amount of information are a little interested in this aspect, they will naturally collect enough information to supplement their own knowledge and serve as a topic of conversation when communicating with their friends and fellow friends. This does not mean that Ye Tao really understands military affairs. At least, he has not really led his own soldiers. If he was in the first place

In the vast spaces of Xunshanguan and Baishi City, he played not only an idea role but also a practical job in the management and operation of the army. Then he had already shown his fear. At the head of Baishi City, he was just a guy who relied on his strength in military armor and was quick to react and strong and strong. If it weren't for the timely protection of his comrades, he would have died on the head of the city... Ye Tao knew this clearly. In this era when everyone easily tied the huge concepts of military theory, weapon research, management and military, who could we explain these issues? Perhaps, only Tan Weixin.

Tan Weixin didn't care about these things. Instead, she indulged her younger brother to constantly harass Ye Tao with various military intelligence.

"The army in this era is probably not as simple as before. But it is definitely not as complicated as you are afraid of. Why do you just refuse to give it a try?"

Perhaps, it is because every woman wants her husband and lover to be an amazing character. Perhaps it is just Tan Weixin’s hope that he and Ye Tao can at least be considered omnipotent... Or perhaps, Tan Weixin hopes that in this violent turbulent season in the continent, they can break out a world. Perhaps, Tan Weixin puts the part of her hope that she will never be able to complete because of her weak body.

After all, Tan Weixin couldn't rest. During these time of rest in Ninghe Town, because there were a large number of guards around her, there was absolutely no problem with safety. Tan Weixin asked her local guards and some of the guards in Tan Weishi's mansion to investigate the basic situation, farmland and ownership, mountain and forest types, minerals, fishery resources, human resources, local geography and local academies, as well as whether there are any more famous productions or especially special things that are difficult to see elsewhere... These tasks are not good at guards, but Tan Weixin did not specify a specific investigation time, leaving a considerable amount of time for them to freely play. The guards dare not disobey the instructions of "harassment of places is absolutely not allowed", but Tan Weixin dared not to violate the instructions, but Tan Weixin still set a relatively generous expense standard for the guards to take charge of the investigation. For the guards who have been in a state of tension, this can probably be regarded as an opportunity for vacation.

After Ye Tao returned, he also recognized Tan Weixin's approach. In the name of the Governor of the Canal, Ye Tao sent a letter to local officials to report the situation in detail in various places, and also sent several patrol envoys to assist local people in conducting investigations.

The scope of the canal Governor's Office is not only the canal rivers, but also the vast land spread along the rivers. The canal can revitalize the economy of the entire area, but it also requires vision and funds. Sometimes, some very promising changes that can greatly improve the living standards of local residents require only a small amount of thrust at the beginning. Now, whether it is Tan Weixin or Ye Tao, there is such energy. And just so happens, they still have some spare money.

This part of the spare money comes a bit strange. There are many bridges on the entire canal. According to the initial idea, it was planned to start building these bridges after the canal is fully connected, but Ye Tao changed this plan. Due to the sectional construction of the canal, although some groundwater and rainwater inevitably gathered in the dug river channel, the entire canal did not form an overall runoff. In this case, it is much easier to build a bridge directly than to build a bridge after the canal is formed, and naturally the budget can be balanced. After seeing this part of the remaining funds, Deputy Governor Shi Xiu once mentioned returning the funds to the Ministry of Revenue for other projects. However, Tan Weixin, who is familiar with the current foundation of the Ministry of Revenue, discussed with Ye Tao, and decided to use this part of the funds to build some road systems that connect the towns around the canal.

According to the original river planning, some towns are still a little far from the canal. Ferries are set up on the edge of the canal, transit port passes, and then connecting the ferry with towns by road. After the plan is revised, the plan for these main roads has been greatly expanded. A ground road parallel to the canal will connect a series of towns to form a ground transportation path. This road will pass through many smaller villages, and in those villages, outposts will be set up. In addition to taking on daily local jingling work, these outposts also have the responsibility to maintain roads.

The second part of the road connects villages that deviate from the main area of ​​the canal to towns and even some places with more critical private villas. The construction standards of these parts of the roads are relatively low, but they will greatly strengthen the control of the Canal Governor's Office over the entire area.

In the south of the canal, the canal and road round, a certain scale of water and land transfer hub is built. This water and land transfer hub is initially determined to be located not far from the border between Chunnan and Dongping. There was originally a town called Xiewang Town near it, and two or three small barracks with two or three branches on the border. When the construction of this water and land transfer hub is completed, Xiewang Town, which is only one mile away from the hub, will soon become the place where merchants from Chunnan and Dongping gather and trade, and will inevitably become prosperous. Due to the ally between Dongping and Chunnan, Ye Tao ordered that in addition to maintaining a small camp for mountain training and two outposts on the border, the rest of the barracks will be merged on the border. This water and land transfer hub will greatly promote trade between Dongping and Chunnan in peacetime, and once the two countries have a feud in the future, it will become a bridgehead for Dongping to attack Chunnan together.

After reporting this part of the plan, Tan Xiaopei and several ministers agreed to it and passed it fully. This series of construction projects does not require additional funds from the Ministry of Revenue, but it can greatly promote local development. Once the war enters the war, these road projects will become an important part of ensuring the smooth logistics of the Dongping army.

In addition, it is the issue of open land for private places. At present, the only thing that can provide mail and parcel delivery services in the country in Dongping is FedEx established by the inner government. Due to the strict FedEx system and strict personnel management, a transportation service network between the major cities in Dongping has been established within a few years, and there are FedEx transportation lines in the south and south of Chun and north of Yunzhou. There are FedEx transportation lines. Some people have set up FedEx branches in various places.

My brainstorming has expanded the mail delivery business to a range of 200 miles in cities with FedEx branches. Although this part of the business is far from being the mainstream of FedEx and the charges are quite expensive, the business has never stopped. Even in Xiling and Beiliao, FedEx can open up smuggling routes and even develop armed smuggling business. If you include merchants with good relationships with FedEx, FedEx can deliver letters from anywhere to anywhere.

Compared with FedEx's continuous exploration of its own potential, the Dongpingdi Post Pass system is now quite outdated. The post pass system that only undertakes the official document delivery task requires the Dongping Ministry of Revenue to allocate a large amount of funds to maintain every year. When all the emergency military information has been transmitted through the Harvest, and the 600-mile express and the 400-mile express delivery have become quite slow, Tan Xiaopei instructed the Ministry of Revenue to reform the Post Pass system so that it can bear more functions. The Ministry of Revenue issued a document to solicit opinions from local governors and governors.

Tan Xiaopei once summoned Zeng Man and others to inquire about the possibility of establishing a national postal system based on FedEx. Tan Xiaopei did not regard FedEx as a private industry in the inner government, but was considering nationalizing FedEx. If we wanted to establish a postal network that could cover the whole country from scratch, it would be expensive and the maintenance costs would be amazing in normal times. However, Tan Xiaopei said that the existing station could be handed over to FedEx. But he asked FedEx to take on the delivery of court documents from then on... Zeng Man hesitated for a long time and finally said that this was very difficult. FedEx had a part of the responsibility of collecting intelligence from various places. There was no more ironic about intelligence agencies being responsible for delivering letters.

After a long study, Tan Xiaopei finally failed to make up his mind to change the post-transmission system that had been running smoothly for many years in this way. However, he still asked the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Works to send people to understand the operation mode of FedEx and study the possibility of reforming the post-transmission system.

After such news was sent back to Ninghe Town, Ye Tao and Tan Weixin could not be happy, but for the civil and military officials of the court, it was a huge change. Even if the important officials in the court knew a little about the relationship between FedEx and the inner government, the fact on the table was that the court wanted to learn from a large businessman, and the problem on the face made many people feel unacceptable. However, in the bustling discussion, a cheap concept that can communicate with ordinary people and relatives far away from home can improve the cohesion of the country was recognized by everyone. Although this problem could not be solved through the court's measures for the time being. However, Tan Xiaopei wrote a letter to Tan Weixin in private, hoping that FedEx would be cheaper in delivering letters and to provide the construction of astronomy network in the city's branches...

In this case, Tan Weixin had no choice but to reply and agreed. But Tan Weixin also explained some of her own opinions: FedEx cannot maintain the parallel state of two contradictions, both collecting intelligence and delivering letters for a long time. Tan Weixin proposed two plans, one is that FedEx will separate the functions of collecting intelligence and merge the internal security guard system in the area under the leadership of the inner government. It will form a professional intelligence agency to make FedEx a professional post and logistics agency, gradually strengthen the official and authoritative background of FedEx, and will fully take over all post and transmission systems in Dongping in the future and replace the existing post and transmission systems. The other plan will take several years to complete the period.

While developing the communication network, FedEx trained a group of professionals to carry out this work, and then handed over this part of the manpower and network to the existing mail transmission system when conditions are mature to promote the reform of the mail transmission system. FedEx still maintains the function of transporting material packages and collecting local intelligence. Both ideas have left enough time for Tan Xiaopei to think about which one is more suitable for the development of Dongping. However, the most basic concept of personal ** mentioned by Tan Weixin in the document, the management rules for the disassembly and reading of letters in intelligence collection, and the idea of ​​establishing a special intelligence functional agency, really made Tan Xiaopei's eyes shine.

Tan Xiaopei has always had a lot of opinions on the internal security guard system's work in intelligence collection. The unclear rights and responsibilities, unclear organizational ownership, and other problems. The disconnection between the direction of intelligence collection and the court's major policies and strategies have always made him feel a headache. The systematic expenses of the internal security guard have been increasing with the growth of Dongping's power, and the demand for intelligence from the enemy and potential enemies has continued to rise. Even if the inner government can tolerate the expansion of this part of the expenditure under Tan Weixin's focus over the years, it is not a solution after all. Moreover, the intelligence agency is completely in the inner government and in the hands of a few people in the royal family, it is easy to cause uneasiness in the hearts of the ministers in the court.

But when Tan Xiaopei asked Tan Weixin what preparations it would take to form a professional intelligence agency, Tan Weixin said that she was not familiar with this kind of work and still hoped that people who were more specialized in this area would put forward their opinions. Although Tan Weixin suggested that the marching chief Nie Rui, the deacon Zeng Man of the inner court, and Cao Pojun, the current supervisor of the local internal security guard, all of these candidates made Tan Xiaopei nod secretly, but Tan Weixin's refusal obviously reminded him of Ye Tao's "over-humility" that Tan Weiming had complained several times, but in Tan Weixin's reply, he threw out two extremely interesting ideas of establishing the Central Archives Bureau and establishing a standardized confidentiality hierarchy system...

Tan Xiaopei believes that Tan Weixin does not know much about intelligence. Ye Tao is indeed an amateur in many military affairs, but sometimes what he needs is the unfamiliarity of these two talented people. They need to be able to think, analyze and solve problems without the original framework, and even, they can always lower their stature, admit their mistakes in disputes, recognize the opinions of people of different status and constantly make corrections. With these, they do not even need to truly understand everything, this is the way good leaders should work.
