Chapter 139 Scale

"Which king, although it is exquisite in calculating food and grass transportation using mathematics, it has no practical significance."

"Oh? How do you see it?"

"King, no matter how good the system is, no matter how good the so-called optimization is, it must be operated by people. If the administration is corrupt, what is the use of having a system? No matter how optimized the personnel allocation of this food and grass transportation can't prevent the so-called 'loss'."

"The administration of officials belongs to administration, and mathematics belongs to mathematics. There is no need to mix two completely different problems."

At this moment, Wang Yuwen Wen of Xiyang was talking to Wang Jun who came to Woyang to report his work. The last round of reception had just ended, and not long after Wang Yue and others left, Yuwen Wen went to the toilet and summoned Wang Jun who had been waiting for a long time.

Not long after the dialogue began, the two sides debated the practicality of the "roadmap".

The reason is that Yu Wen Wen took out some of the copied roadmap and asked Wang to optimize the stations in Huaixi according to the above "configuration", so as to ensure grain transportation, streamline personnel and pack horses, and minimize costs and losses as much as possible.

Wang Jun roughly understood the source of "optimized configuration" and then expressed his objection to this "paper talk". He did not question the mathematicians' calculations were wrong, nor did he intend to question whether the military officials were attentive, but questioned the execution effect.

This problem is very realistic. No matter how well the system is designed, it depends on people to implement it. If the person who executes it has problems, the system is useless at all.

Taking grain and grass transportation as an example, there are many flowers in it. As long as the officials can disobey their conscience, they can squeeze out oil and water from any step, resulting in increased losses, so that the cost of grain and grass transportation remains high.

There is no need for Wang Xu to say much about the specific examples. Of course, Yu Wen Wen knew about it. He had been a parent official for ten years, and he had been on horseback and governing the army and dismounted the people. He often went deep into the people and sent his eyes and ears to inquire about the various disadvantages under the current system. Of course, he was clear about the various shortcomings under the current system.

As the saying goes, all problems are problems of administration, and this problem is basically unsolvable. Even "modern" cannot cure the problem. How can Yuwen Wen have a wonderful way to rejuvenate?

It is not possible to treat the root cause, but it is always possible to treat the symptoms. It depends on the ability of the superior. Yuwen Wen wants to make Wang Jun bear part of the responsibility.

Wang Yun’s objection to the roadmap was just mentioned. Yu Wen Wen obviously did not seek his opinions, so if the other party listened after the opinions were put forward, Wang Yun would not care. It was appropriate for Yu Wen Wen to summarize his problems into management issues.

The grain road with Xiyang as the starting point and Woyang as the end point (temporary), Yuwen Wen divided it into three sections, the section from Xiyang to Guangcheng, which is responsible by the Huangzhou General Manager Hao Wubo, and the section from Guangcheng to Ruyin, which is responsible by Wang Jun.

Yuwen Wen is responsible for this section from Ruyin to Woyang, and in the future, to Pengcheng.

It is natural for Hao Wubo to be in charge of a section of grain, and Yuwen Wen is in charge of Woyang, an important hub of the grain road, and of course he is also responsible for a section of grain road. The middle section of grain road located in Huaixi is responsible by Wang Jun, who is the chief marching chief, which is the responsibility of this.

Wang Xun wanted to assist the marching general Yuwen Shiwu in charge of Huaixi, but Yuwen Shiwu had no chance to lead troops alone for more than 10 years. He was in charge of Huaixi military command and had insufficient experience in governing the people. Yuwen Wen asked Wang Xun, who had a strategy in his own way, to help.

By the way, I will give these two people a gift, at least make some military achievements, and accumulate capital for future promotions.

Yuwen Wen made a decision on the next strategy of the Southeast Road march, and Huaixi must stabilize it, so Wang Xu rushed to Woyang to report his work and introduced Yuwen Wen to Huaixi's current situation. He also gave Wang Xu some new instructions.

Yuwen Wen's instructions (requests) are very simple. The newly promoted docks in Huaixi area mainly settled in a stable position to avoid the counterattack of old forces. These docks can collect food in the autumn and supply the needs of the army.

The officials he vigorously promoted were assisting the owners of the forts to resume production in various places, maintaining the smooth flow of food channels, and making complicated affairs, and in a wartime state. Therefore, Yuwen Wen asked Wang to pay attention to the next assessment standard, and not to set the standards too strictly or too harshly.

As the saying goes, do more mistakes, do less mistakes, do less mistakes, and do not do well. Yuwen Wen needs people who do practical things, and do not need clean guests who only know how to hold discussions, so he must be tolerant and cannot suppress the enthusiasm of these people who want to get rid of their official responsibilities and try to show their strength.

Yuwen Wen personally set the standard, and Wang Jun knew that as the chief marching officer, he was responsible for assessing the political achievements of various officials in Huaixi area. Knowing that this matter is of great importance, his comments will determine the lives of those officials.

It is indeed a good feeling to hold power, but if it is screwed up, Wang Jun knows that his chance will be difficult to get again.

In his opinion, the King of Xiyang was young, energetic, outstanding military and political abilities, many ideas (fallacies), and had their own opinions. He seemed to not need the kind of counselor who gave advice and gave advice from time to time.

On the contrary, he needs talents who can take charge and be independent, so Wang Jun feels that his current position is good.

Yuwen Shiwu is Yuwen Wen's confidant, but because he has been in Huangzhou for a long time and lacks experience, it is the case whether it is governing the military or the people. As the chief minister, if he can help Yuwen Shiwu get things done well, so that Yuwen Wen can concentrate on paying attention to the situation, it would be more appropriate.

Therefore, Wang Xu had another bold idea, just to discover Yu Wen Wen's tone.

"King, the Huainan garrison of Chen State has always been a threat. The so-called war can only be harmonious. I wonder if Huaixi side can share the worries of the king?"

Yuwen Wen looked at Wang Jun and smiled slightly: "Border friction? It is a good idea, but it is difficult to grasp the temperature..."

Wang Jun was overjoyed when he heard this. Since Yuwen Wen had thought about this, he could do it: "Don't worry, the king, it is of course difficult to grasp the timing, but the officials have the confidence to do it."

"It's about doing it, not just talking, showing off your words."

"Yes, if the king agrees, please give General Yuwen an order."

"Is it a secret order or a clear order?" Yuwen Wen looked at Wang Xu with a smile. Wang Xu replied decisively: "Of course it is a secret order. If the time is not grasped well and the situation deteriorates, the officials are willing to bear all the consequences!"

"Forget it, you can't afford to bear your body, and everyone won't believe it. If you really want to cause trouble, I will take care of it..."

Yuwen Wen put away his smile and his expression became serious. Wang Xun said so, and he gave a briefing directly:

"Your opinion is right. If we just want to please Chen Guo in order to ensure that we are worry-free, we will be more cautious. Therefore, border frictions must be done. As for the scale, I have a good idea."

"Please give me some advice."

"You, find a reason, organize troops to carry out an exercise in the north of Shouchun, the northern bank of Huai River...hunting, and then said that two soldiers were lost, suspected of running to the south bank and entering Shouchun City, and asked the general of Chen State to open the city gate and let your people enter the city to search!!"

After hearing this, Wang Jun's face froze and thought to himself that he was a little shameless to do so. However, since the King of Xiyang gave him so much, it would be easier to do things next.

"King, if you are so adept at border provocations, the court... I'm afraid that the Chen State will send envoys to Woyang to question the king in person?"
