Chapter 43

In the backyard of Ye County, Wang Xiaoli sat down. Looking at Shao Ling, Jie Linong, Cao Zhiyan, Yu Huan and Niu Gao, he said, "I have been to Ye County for some time. According to the drill mentioned earlier, your army should be stationed in various places. Change the formation and set up the formations, and many things need to be done. Look at you being busy every day, I don't know what to do."

Shao Ling crossed his hands and said, "It's all done according to what was previously decided. There are always small troubles, and there is no big deal."

"This is the best." Wang Xiaolidao. "Today comes to an end, I specially invite you to discuss what's next."

Shao Ling said: "Don't you go back to the city after the drill?"

Wang Xiaoli shook his head: "Liang County guards the way from Luoyang. Luoyang has Taiwei Zhai. If Taiwei Zhai cannot defend it, people will flee to Ruzhou. Ye County is different. The way from Yingchang Prefecture. Whether it is from Kaifeng Prefecture or from Zhengzhou, they have to go here. So this winter, the army will be stationed in Ye County."

The few nodded and said nothing.

The Zhai family is a large Luoyang clan and has a strong appeal around Luoyang. With them guarding Luoyang, it should be safe to go west of Ruzhou. If there are really big enemies that the Zhai family cannot defend, it will be very difficult for Wang Xiao to hunt thousands of people.

Wang Xiaoliu said: "After the Zongliu left, the large number of troops in Kaifeng Prefecture were extremely unstable. By this winter, we are afraid that something will happen, so we must be prepared in advance. How to be prepared? There are only two things. The first thing is that the army continues to conduct drills, and don't slack off. Especially in the army, we must be taught to read in the army, and we must be careful. If we don't know how to read, it is equivalent to a blind man with open eyes and many things cannot be done. In addition, the middle and lower-level officers in the army must be specially selected for training. Ten days later, according to this drill, each army will select people and go to Ye County for unified training."

Several people were shocked. From the time they arrived in Ruzhou and even in Kaifeng Prefecture, Wang Xiaoliu Army had constant training. Why did they need to be strengthened when they arrived in Ye County? What training should be done?

Looking at the expressions of everyone, Wang Xiaoli smiled and said, "As the saying goes, a thousand troops are easy to get, but one general is hard to find. We are small and there are few people, so it is even more difficult to seek good generals. We can only summon people who may become good generals and constantly teach them. This training is different from before, and it is conducted for middle and lower-level officers. We can classify and teach them."

Several people crossed their hands and said yes.

In the army, training should be a daily matter, not an assault. Officers have training for officers, soldiers have training for soldiers. Even those who cook, raise horses, transport, and all types of troops need training. It can even be said that in addition to combat, the army should learn.

Of course, the expenses are not comparable before. But isn’t it the court’s unrequited desire to exchange money for combat effectiveness? Training for middle and lower-level officers is actually very important. Only when the training is done well can the army be uniform and combat-ready.

Wang Xiaoli said again: "The second thing is civil affairs. Civil affairs call you over, but there is no way. I saw that although there are public officials in Ruzhou, there are not many people who can truly manage the local area. I can only borrow you first and manage the local area."

Cao Zhiyan said: "The little sergeant is joking. We are all martial artists, so where can we care about these?"

Wang Xiaolei said: "What's strange? Nowadays, aren't the magistrates all military generals? Including myself, the same is true. There is no way to fight, it can only be done."

Nowadays, most magistrates in the northern region are military generals. They are not military generals and cannot defend the place. Of course, the Song Dynasty was a habit that magistrates and counties in the border areas also tended to use military generals.

Looking at everyone, Wang Xiaolei said: "I know that most of you know nothing about civil affairs. It would be good to let you manage it and be able to grasp the overall situation. The specific matters can only be left to the public officials. How can this be done? In the army, if middle and lower-level officers are not good, the army will be difficult to manage well. The same is true for civil affairs. If public officials are not good, it will be difficult to manage well."

Niu Gao asked, "That's what I said, is the reason why the magistrate killed the public officials of Ruzhou recently?"

Wang Xiaoli nodded: "Part of the reason is this. Another reason is that we have to do this. In the Tang Dynasty and before, the places were the world of aristocratic families and powerful people. As long as a local official manages the local families well, he will manage the places well. After the late Tang Dynasty, the world was different. Where can there be aristocratic families in the place now? Even if there are powerful people, they cannot threaten the local government."

Speaking of this, Wang Xiaolie lowered his head and carefully sorted out his thoughts.

In Chinese history, the Song Dynasty was a very important era. Entering the Song Dynasty, the aristocratic families basically disappeared and entered civilian society. Those who study history clearly knew that from this time on, China was different.

In a special historical period, there must be special requirements. Entering civilian society, the official governance model also requires change. It is obviously not possible to govern like before. In fact, the Song Dynasty carried out many political reforms, and its intensity was rare in the world. However, for various reasons, all reforms have not achieved results. Coupled with strong external pressure, it became a confusing account.

Such new real conditions have higher requirements for local governments. In other words, in the Song Dynasty, officials were no longer the previous officials, and officials were no longer the previous officials. It can be seen that the officials of the Song Dynasty criticized clerks in various ways. However, this trend was interrupted by the Yuan Dynasty who entered the Central Plains, and the Ming and Qing Dynasties adopted completely different governance methods.

In his previous life, Wang Xiaoli often heard a saying that it was in ancient China that the imperial power did not fall below the county. How could the imperial power not fall below the county? Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, there were pavilions, supervisors and other grassroots officials. In the Song Dynasty, from the village system to township control, the court did not know how many times the grassroots system had been changed. Even the Baojia system was implemented, and the whole country implemented a military system. It was just a period of time that the imperial power did not fall below the county.

The ancient times mentioned in later generations are often a general concept, not real. The Chinese actually don’t understand what history really looks like. Most of the time, they use the past to mock the present and do not care about the real history. Most of the Chinese people’s thoughts and energy are spent learning foreign cultures, and their own history does not pay much attention to it.

Wang Xiaoli mainly focused on using Chinese history to explain the correctness of ideology. Major historical events are correct, but the specific analysis and explanation of the reasons are just a view. Moreover, Chinese history has not been explained clearly.

Why did civil affairs start with public officials? When it was first done, Wang Xiaoliu only relied on his own intuition. After doing it, he thought more and more. In fact, in the Song Dynasty, reforming the public officials system was an objective need.

Looking up, Wang Xiaolei said: "So the current governance of the land is different from the previous dynasties. Human society is developing forward. Whether it is civil affairs or military affairs, it should be followed by the development of society and continuous reform. Strict governance of public officials is the beginning."

New China has two great leaders. The two have different fans, and many times their relationship is not good.

The first leader established the New China. He proposed a series of theories and methods, established the basic system of the New China, and truly moved from the old society to the new society, opening up a new era. The second leader, whose greatest contribution is reform. Let reform truly become the basic system and make continuous reform correct. In other words, he acknowledges that the world is constantly developing and must continue to reform with development.

Ancient Chinese literati always said that they were called the Three Dynasties, and ruled them would be called the Han and Tang Dynasties. In their eyes, the world was developing and reform was normal, and they could not accept this view. It was a great contribution to referring to the basic strategy of governing the country.

Of course, what to change and how to change the reform is a huge test for the ruling party. It is another problem to accurately grasp social changes, be able to predict future trends, and be able to effectively and effectively.

Wang Xiaoliu said: "In this dynasty, each court department has its own system. The government affairs hall has its own regulations. The Privy Hall has its own regulations. The Privy Hall has its own regulations, the three departments, the Ministry of Revenue, etc. The prefectures and counties below also have one state and one county regulations. Why? Because without these regulations, I don't know how to do things. However, many regulations have become dead, but only written documents, and the following are not implemented accordingly. How to do it is in the hands of the public officials below. Combining what the public officials actually do with the prefecture and county regulations. Eliminating the cumbersome and trying to streamline them as much as possible so that the officials above can see what they should do at a glance is the purpose of this time."
