"So many?" Liu Mang was dumbfounded by the number Xu Shu said. Where did he get so much grain from Yangzhou? Now it's not the autumn harvest. They missed the autumn harvest, and they didn't miss the spring plowing this time. (.2x]. Liu Mang went to Jingzhou to borrow so much food from Jingzhou. Could it be possible to eat more food and grass
"My lord, the third batch of grain and grass in Jingzhou stopped shipping after the lord disappeared, and the first two batches of grain and grass were sent to Lujiang except for the waste!" The 200,000 grain and grass in Lujiang was sent by Jingzhou.
"Where did Shouchun's 500,000 yuan come from?" Liu Mang asked.
"The five hundred thousand was also given by Liu Jingzhou." Xu Shu explained to Liu Mang.
"Huh? Liu Biao is so nice?" Liu Mang was a little dumbfounded.
"It's not that Liu Biao is so good, but we took it by ourselves. We have already taken down Nanjun, the capital of Nanjun in Jingzhou." Xu Shu said to Liu Mang.
"Taking Jiangling?" Liu Mang turned his head quickly. There was a map on the desktop behind him, which showed part of the terrain of Jingzhou. There was the Yangtze River in front of Jiangling, and Huarong Road was behind it. How did they pass? "Starting from the waterway?" Liu Wei thought that the Yangzhou navy had no opponents in the Yangtze River, and only the waterway could pass.
But this Jingzhou side is too stupid, the main naval force of Jingzhou has been wiped out on the Yangtze River, and he still let go of the waterway, isn't this courting death
"My lord is not from the waterway! This waterway has been blocked by the Jingzhou side!" Those sunken ships cannot be cleaned up in a day or two, so now for the Yangzhou side, they want to completely clean up the sunken ships. That was really difficult.
"Is that from Huarong Dao?" Although Liu Mang had never been to Huarong Dao. But even in Xiangyang, I once heard people talk about the danger of Huarong Road. There is a swamp of thousands of miles, with miasma and silt, and there is not even a whole body if you are not careful.
"My lord, do you know the Wu family in Jiangling!" Xu Shu asked Liu Mang.
"Jiangling Ship King?" You may not know who the head of the Wu family is, but when it comes to Jiangling Wu's family, you know the Jiangling Ship King's House. It can be said that half of the merchant ships in Jingzhou came from the Wu family, and the Wu family's captain in Xiangyang even It is also the birthplace of Jingzhou warships.
"That's right, it's the Wu family of Jiangling Ship King, the Wu family is finished!"
"The Wu family is finished?" That is a huge gentry. Although it is not as big as the Huang family, the Cai family and the Kuai family, it is still a wealthy noble family. I remember that Kuai Yue also said that the master behind the Wu family is the Huang family.
"Eradicated by our army?" No one in Jingzhou should touch him, so the only ones who can destroy the Wu family are their Yangzhou soldiers.
"No! By our Young Master Liu Pan!"
"Liu Pan?" Isn't this Liu Pan one of his own
"Liu Pan and Huang She fought for power, and this Wu family became a victim!" Then Liu Mang understood, "This Wu family has hundreds of members, and Liu Pan wiped it out at once, leaving a Wu family. Miss Wu, the daughter of my family, this Miss Wu can be regarded as a character. She came to our army's camp in Shiyang alone and found Lu Xun. He gave Lu Xun the topographic map of Huarong Road, and Lu Xun took two thousand elites to leave Huarong Dao made a surprise attack on Jiangling! Forced the surrender of Jiangling defenders. Captured Jiangling." Xu Shu still didn't make it clear. After taking Jiangling, the prefect of Jiangling tried to recapture Jiangling and prepared to cooperate with the Jingzhou army outside. It was about to succeed. After all, Lu Xun was still young, so he had too much faith in Dong Zhi, the prefect of Jiangling. As long as Dong Zhi opened the city gate and cooperated with the Jingzhou army outside the city, Lu Xun's more than 1,000 Yangzhou army would still persuade him to surrender. If the soldiers and horses can't get into Jiangling at all, it is very likely that they will be breached.
But I didn't expect that it was none other than the Changsha prefect Huang Zu who came to rescue the Jingzhou army.
Miss Wu sent a letter to Huang Zu and told Huang Zu that Dong Zhi was the second son Liu Pan, and that taking Jiangling would be the second son Liu Pan's credit. In the battle for the front, he has the upper hand. If the credit for taking down Jiangling is given to Liu Pan, then Huang She will not be able to compete with Liu Pan in Xiangyang.
Coupled with Miss Wu's letter, the Huang family's statement to the Wu family that they have no guilt is a lie. After all, the Wu family was destroyed, and the Huang family watched it. It's a family friend.
So Huang Zu simply pretended to be stupid, and Dong Zhi was also dumbfounded when he opened the city gate. He shouted to welcome Master Wang to recover Jiangling, but Huang Zu's Jingzhou soldiers and horses sold him over there, waiting for Dong Zhi's return. In the end, it could only be taken down by Lu Xun and chopped down on the city wall.
Miss Wu's enmity has finally been avenged.
After going to Huarong Road once, this Huarong Road is not so mysterious. The tens of thousands of troops behind used turf to lay a bedding on Huarong Road, and slowly pounced on a road. Only then did the army continuously enter Jiangling. In the meantime, grain and grass from Jiangling also began to be shipped out.
This is why there is no shortage of grain and grass in Yangzhou now.
"My lord, you don't know. In Jiangling, there are 800,000 grains and 100,000 pieces of armor and weapons!" Lu Xun gave 200,000 yuan to Changsha Huangzu, and kept the 100,000 yuan for himself. Yes, all the weapons and armor have been melted away, and now the armor of the Jingzhou Army is no longer seen by the Yangzhou Army, and their armor is all remade.
"Where are those sweet potatoes that I planted when I left?" Liu Mang remembered, and he asked, the normal ripening time of sweet potatoes is three to four months, that is, ninety to one hundred and twenty days . The time should be ripe now.
"My lord, those sweet potatoes of yours." Xu Shu frowned and said.
"What's the matter?" Seeing Xu Shu's frown, Liu Mang's heart skipped a beat, knowing that he knew how to count on those sweet potatoes to improve the fields, so that the people would no longer be hungry.
"Those sweet potatoes are not tasty!" Xu Shu said to Liu Mang.
"Hehe!" Liu Mang was taken aback by Xu Shu, he thought those sweet potato seeds were useless.
"Those are not for you to eat!" The Central Plains people have never eaten sweet potatoes, so they will naturally be a little uncomfortable with the taste of sweet potatoes, but they will soon get used to it. "Go ahead and take out all those sweet potatoes. Cut each piece of sweet potato into several sections. As long as it's this big!" Liu Mang gestured to the people under his hand, "and put these chopped ones into the land according to the ratio !"
"Master, this should be planted directly, right? If it is cut off, is it still useful?" Xu Shu doesn't know sweet potatoes, but he knows about spring plowing. He doesn't know what is the seed or the fruit of this sweet potato. The fruit grows in the ground. Well.
"Don't worry, do as I say! Forget it, I will go over and supervise myself." Liu Mang said to Xu Shu worried. The sweet potato is a plant with strong roots. As long as it is not too much, if you cut it into pieces of about the same size and bury it in the ground, it will be a seed, and it will naturally grow fruit in the coming year.
"Ah, there is such a thing!" Xu Shu said in surprise.
"That's natural, Yuan Zhi, you've seen the output of that thing, right?"
"En!" Xu Shu nodded. He was a little serious. Those things called sweet potatoes by the lord could actually produce two thousand catties per mu. This figure completely frightened Xu Shu. So Xu Shu sent heavy troops there all the time and didn't dare to leak the news.
"It's only two thousand catties!" Liu Mang frowned. Seeing Liu Mang's dissatisfied look, Xu Shu was even more surprised. He was very dissatisfied with the lord's look.
Liu Mang was indeed dissatisfied. Because according to the seeds that Liu Mang brought back, the output value should be around 2,500 kilograms, or about 5,000 kilograms per mu, instead of being doubled now.
But thinking about it, Liu Mang is relieved, because there are no chemical fertilizers, other hormones to promote growth, and pesticides to prevent pests, so it is understandable that the output value is lower.
"Give him our military field first, Yuan Zhi must keep it secret, and then give it to the common people after next year!" Liu Mang said to Xu Shu. No need for Liu Mang to say that Xu Shu knew the importance, so he nodded.
"These days are hard for everyone!" Liu Mang patted Xu Shu on the shoulder.
"My lord, there is one more thing that I want to tell my lord!" Xu Shu clasped his fists.
"kindness?"
"My lord, we have established a relationship with Gongsun Du of Liaodong!" Xu Shu said to Liu Mang.
"Have you found the direction of the sea route?" Liu Mang asked with wide-eyed eyes.
'Yes my lord! "Xu Shu nodded.
"What did Liaodong Gongsundu say!" Liu Wei asked Xu Shu. He wanted to open up the sea route because he wanted to get war horses from Liaodong Gongsundu.
"He wants fifty gold for a war horse!" Xu Shu said to Liu Mang.
"Fifty gold a horse? Hehe, why didn't he go grab it!" Liu Mang became angry, but this good news was irritated by the Liaodong Gongsundu lion's big mouth. Although these fifty gold horses are already very cheap in the Central Plains, you must know that they are trading in Liaodong, and that Gongsun Du will not know how to transport the horses to Yangzhou. Under the package, Liu Mang is so happy that the price is so high and he is not responsible for the transportation.
"The emissary of Gongsun Du came with General Gan Ning, but he failed to discuss it with you, my lord. I made my own decision, and finally bought and sold ten gold for a war horse!" Xu Shu had worked hard for fifty gold to ten gold. War horses in the north are not worth the price at all. Groups of wild horses can be caught in large numbers, but now it is a seller's market, and people don't necessarily have to sell them to you if they have goods.
"Okay, give it to him!" Liu Mang looked very bad. It's not a bad thing to be able to solve it with money.
"This Gongsundu still wants to ask for something from the lord!"
"what?"
"He wants those bloody horses in Lord Wenhou's hands!"
"He has war horses in Liaodong!"
"He wants these horses to be bred." The envoy sent by Gongsun Zan in Liaodong this time is still a person who is suitable for horses, so it can be seen that there are good horses and bad horses. His eyes lit up immediately, they are definitely good horses, all of them are sweat horses, so he wants these war horses to go back for breeding.
"My lord, these war horses must not be given!" Zhuge Liang, who hadn't spoken for a long time, also spoke.
The matter of horse breeding can be big or small, if you talk about it in a small way. That is, it can give birth to a pony, and it is said to the big inside that it is the horse breed of the war horse in the Bingzhou wolf rider, which can completely reshape the Liaodong war horse, just like the Japanese oriental horse.
The original Dongyang horse, that is, the Japanese horse. Each one is only a little over one meter. That's because the Japanese themselves are only about 1.23 meters. In Japan, 1.51.4 meters is called a tall man.
Later, the Japanese also realized that his horse was not good, so he found a variety of horses to match, and finally got the tall Dongyang horse.
"Give it to him!" I thought Liu Mang would not give it, but I didn't expect Liu Mang to be quite generous.
"My lord?"
"The horses are not given for free. Each of his Gongsun Du needs to be exchanged for fifty horses." Liu Mang said to them.
"My lord, this?"
"Kong Ming, these war horses are not suitable for his Gongsundu. Even if he can match them, he can't use them. Liaodong belongs to the bitter cold in the north, and those Arabian war horses brought by Liu Mang can't adapt at all. They belong to that kind of horses. The horses in the desert areas of the tropics are almost the same in the south of the Yangtze River. In the north, only Mongolian horses with thick fur can survive. It’s like if you wear a lot of clothes, you go to the south. If it’s too hot, you can wear the hair Shave it off. Take off your clothes, but if you go to the north wearing a big underpants and a small vest, you have no other choice but to freeze to death.
"yes!"
"That's right. After Gan Ning manages the sea passage, don't forget to explore the open sea!" Liu Mang said to Liu Ye who was next to him, and asked Liu Ye to learn from the books he brought back. Give Gan Ning a map.
This map is naturally a simple version, it just tells Gan Ning what is in the open sea.
If Liu Mang was not mistaken, Gan Ning would be able to discover Taiwan by going to the mouth of the Yangtze River.
"My lord, Kong Ming doesn't have a clear position in Yangzhou!" Xu Shu said to Liu Mang that he wanted to ask for an official position for Zhuge Liang. Even Li Yan, one of Zhuge Liang's subordinates, is now the head of the Armed Police Department, so it's shameful that he, Zhuge Liang, is still idle.
"That's no problem!" Liu Mang also thought about it, and he thought about Xu Shu's hard work. He couldn't arrange the tasks and perform their own duties. Xu Shu would die of exhaustion sooner or later.
"Pass down my Wang Ling, and I will set up six departments in Yangzhou!" Liu Mang said to the people under his command.
"Six parts?" Xu Shu didn't expect Liu Mang to make such a big move.
"Officials, households, rituals, soldiers, punishments, workers" Liu Mang spoke out his thoughts. Six ministries, from the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the general term for the ministries of officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers in the central administrative agency. Its duties were originally divided by Jiuqing in Qin and Han Dynasties. After Wei and Jin Dynasties, Shangshu was divided into Cao Zhishi. Comparing the six officials in "Zhou Li" with the six departments of officials, households, rites, soldiers, punishment, and engineering, most of the positions of the Qin and Han Jiuqing were incorporated.
Liu Mang took out the things from the Sui and Tang Dynasties first, and Liu Mang also wanted to use this new type of official in modern society at once, but the food cannot be eaten in one bite.
So I can only use six parts to relax first.
"The Ministry of Officials is the organ that manages civilian officials. It is in charge of the system of ranking and selection, the method of exposing officials through examinations, the code of entrustment and award, and the method of finalizing the registration system. There are four divisions under the Ministry of Officials: Wenxuan Qingli Division, Seal inspection department, Jixun department and merit examination department. The Wenxuan Qingli department is in charge of examining the grades of civil posts and their listing, examination, selection, promotion, and monthly selection. The seal inspection department is in charge of titles, world positions, favors, and difficulties , Request for seals, donating seals, etc. The Ji Xun Division is in charge of civil officials' keeping system, final support, handling of officials' succession, naturalization, rename and surname restoration, etc. The merit examination division is in charge of the punishment and discussion of civil officials, and handles Beijing inspection and major planning .” Liu Mang explained the responsibilities of the Ministry of Officials one by one.
"Where is Lu Su!" Liu Mang shouted after finishing talking about the functions of the Ministry of Officials.
Lu Su was taken aback for a moment, he was still thinking about the function of the official department that Liu Mang said.
"Lu Su Lu Zijing, I will hand over the official department of Yangzhou to you, Lu Su Lu Zijing will be the secretary of the official department of Yangzhou!" Liu Mang said to Lu Su with a smile, it is not for nothing that Lu Su was appointed as the official department Think about what kind of person Lu Su is. He was a surrendered general before, so all the civil and military people in Yangzhou are still very indifferent to Lu Su, so Lu Su will not form a party, and Lu Su was originally an upright person This can be seen from the fact that Lu Su did not accept bribes when he served as Jiangdong's military adviser. The Lu family almost had no money to redeem him. The daughter also asked her grandpa to worship her grandma.
"Ahhh!" Lu Su was confused by Liu Mang, "My lord, Lu Su is a newcomer, so he can't take on such a heavy responsibility!" Lu Su hurriedly refused. . Officials can be exempted and can be supervised. Just like the organization department and the procuratorate. It can be said that this Yangzhou official, big or small, can be official. This is an important position, and all the civil and military officials in Yangzhou below are coveted.
"A new recruit? Hehe, so what if you're a new recruit, my lord, you don't have to be suspicious, as long as you Lu Su is capable, it doesn't matter if I serve you as the Minister of the Ministry of Officials!" Liu Mang asked Lu Su to take on such a job. There is another purpose for high-ranking officials, which is to use Lu Su as a thousand-mile horse. He bought a horse with a lot of money, but Lu Su's reputation in this world is not obvious. He lost several battles in his debut, so there are many people who look down on Lu Su.
Among these individuals, there are talented and talented people. They thought that this Lu Su could be the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. Why can't these talented people do it? This His Highness King of Shu is a person who loves talents. Therefore, talents from all over the world can gather in Yangzhou. Lu Su is a subdued general who can calm people's hearts.
Jiangdong Jingzhou is the place that Liu Mang wants to take. The gentry in Jingzhou don’t need to be appeased, as long as the Kuai family and Cai family are there, but Jiangdong Liu Mang can’t break through one. Now he is good to Lu Su, just to give Jiangdong some A signal for those who have surrendered thoughts. That is, as long as you surrender, I, Liu Mang, will treat you well.
"So, Su thank you for your love, my lord!" Lu Su saw that he had no choice but to accept it. He also knew that once he became the Minister of the Ministry of Officials in Yangzhou, he would never be able to go back to Jiangdong, but he was still very happy in his heart. Didn't Lu Su just want a stage where he could show his ability? , This official department is a big stage.
"After the Ministry of Officials is the Ministry of Households. The Ministry of Households is in charge of all the territory, fields, household registration, taxes, salaries and all financial matters in Yangzhou. Its internal government affairs are divided into divisions according to the division of labor. First, there is only one division in Yangzhou, and then it will be divided. In addition to managing the state’s money and grain, the Secretary also manages some general affairs of other yamen, and the responsibilities often overlap. The three warehouses of the household department are in charge of the treasury; the storehouse yamen is in charge of storage and water affairs.” Liu Mang said the responsibilities of the household department , that is, the Ministry of Commerce, which has the right to mint coins, which makes the eyes of many people below reflect light, mint coins, who in the world is not minting now, Jiangdong has Jiangdong Daqian, Jingzhou has Jingzhou Tongbao, Luoyang On the one hand, there are Han coins. Although Han coins are the main ones now, the copper coins of various mansions are still in use.
"The Ministry of Households is also the Ministry of Commerce!" Liu Mang looked at the crowd of civil and military personnel below, "Where is Mi Zhu!"
"The minister is here!" Mi Zhu stood up and said to Liu Mang, clasping his fists. When Liu Mang talked about the Ministry of Households, Mi Zhu knew what to do with himself.
"Zifang, my business department will teach you! You are my money bag in Yangzhou! If the money is not enough, I will ask you!"
"Don't worry, my lord, as long as Mi Zhu is in power for one day, Yangzhou will definitely make me rich!"
"Haha, I want my Yangzhou to become the richest state in the world!" Liu Wei still saw Mi Zhu's ability to make money.
Mi Zhu was so happy to be named by Liu Mang. He now has a title. He used to be the director of the Ministry of Commerce alone, so everyone didn't understand what kind of official position Mi Zhu was. After coming down, the Ministry of Households is also the Ministry of Commerce, one of the six ministers of civil servants.
Could Mi Zhu be unhappy? Now Mi Zhu remembered that he wished to meet Liu Mang sooner. If he had met Liu Mang sooner, how could he have become what he is now? He would not be so miserably deceived by Liu Bei. Mi Zhu relied on his younger sister's beauty to get to the top position, but now no one talks about it, because the protagonist Liu Mang has nothing to do with his younger sister.
"By the way, Zifang, how is your sister?" Liu Mang suddenly mentioned Mrs. Mi, which made Mi Zhu stunned for a moment, but then he was overjoyed. Could it be that the lord has taken a fancy to his sister? Mi Zhu was eager to send his younger sister to Liu Mang's bed, so that their Mi family's position could be more stable, but they never had a chance. One reason was that Liu Mang was not in Yangzhou, and the other reason was that his sister was no longer The body is perfect, so Mi Zhu gave up, but suddenly Liu Mang mentioned it, and Mi Zhu was overjoyed. Could it be that the lord still has a crush on his sister? It's not perfect, but she can serve others.
"The last time we said goodbye, Sister She was always thinking about the lord!" Mi Zhu winked at Liu Mang.
Looking at Mi Zhu's appearance, Liu Mang knew that Mi Zhu had misunderstood. He, Mi Zhu, thought that he had taken a fancy to Mrs. Mi.
That white jade beauty is indeed very beautiful, and Liu Mang also likes it quite a bit, but Liu Mang doesn't have enough energy, those in the family are going to turn him into a human being, so how dare he provoke her.
"Zifang. If Lingmei is not married yet, then I am the lord. But I want to propose a kiss to you, Zifang!"
"Marriage proposal?" Mi Zhu listened to Liu Mang's words, Liu Mang didn't want to marry his sister, but proposed marriage.
"Dare to ask my lord why someone proposed marriage!" Mi Zhu asked cautiously.
"You also know this person, Zifang, that is my brother-in-law, Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, my general!" Liu Mang said to Mi Zhu.
"Zilong?" Mi Zhu didn't expect Liu Mang to propose a marriage for Zhao Yun. Mi Zhu also knew Zhao Yun. At that time, Zhao Yun was working under Gongsun Zan. Mi Zhu was working for Liu Bei, and he even recruited Zhao Yun for Liu Bei. So the two know each other.
"Yeah, it's Zilong! I want to kiss you Zifang for my younger brother!" Zhao Yun liked Mrs. Mi and Liu Mang had already seen it, because after Liu Mang took down Mrs. Mi, Zhao Yun trusted someone Delivered food many times, and inquired a lot from Liu Mang's place, for fear that Mrs. Mi would be killed by Liu Mang.
Zhao Yun thought he was hiding it, who would have thought that Liu Mang had many good people around him, one of them was Jia Xu, Jia Wen and this old fox, after seeing Zhao Yun twice, he told Liu Mang that this Zhao Yun liked Mi lady.
"This minister wants to go back and ask her sister!" Although Mi Zhu was very disappointed that it wasn't Liu Mang who liked his sister. But it's not bad to think of Zhao Yun as Liu Mang's confidant and beloved general.
"Ask as soon as possible, ask as soon as possible. My righteous brother is also the eldest, so I have to leave a few more dolls for his old Zhao family." Liu Mang knew that Zhao Yun had a lot of affection, and he liked Mrs. Mi before, maybe he didn't dare to say it because of Liu Bei's matter, but Now Mrs. Mi is dead according to Liu Bei's claim, so naturally it doesn't matter.
"Okay, let's get back to business! After the Ministry of Households, there is the Ministry of Punishment, which is in charge of the punishment of the world. The specific duties of the Ministry of Punishment are: examining and approving various laws, reviewing criminal cases sent to the Ministry from various places, and cooperating with local governments to try the death penalty of "prison waiting". The following is divided into the Legislative Department , Division of Judgment, Division of Punishment, Kong Ming taught you the Minister of Punishment!" Liu Mang said to Zhuge Liang who was beside him.
"Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment?" Zhuge Liang couldn't help but take another look. The Ministry of Punishment naturally wants to legislate. Legislation is the legalist point of view. How does the king of Shu know that he is a legalist
That's right, although Zhuge Liang studied Confucianism under Sima Shuijing, he himself is an iron-clad legalist representative.
If there is no way to stand up, Zhuge Liang beheaded Ma Di with tears. That is because of the legalist concept, and the law is to abide by it. No matter who it is, even Liu Chan who is on the original track is afraid of Zhuge Liang. It is because Zhuge Liang came according to the law, and Liu Chan made a mistake. bad luck.
"Liang takes orders!" Zhuge Liang became more and more curious about Liu Mang. He had never told anyone that he was a Legalist, and Zhuge Liang had never been in power. He was in the army as soon as he became an official. How did His Highness the King of Shu know that he was good at punishment? Well, is it really Bole? As for Li Yan, he can also know that Zhuge Liang has been surprised, and now he still understands himself.
Liu Mang really understands Zhuge Liang. The only two representatives of the legalists in the Three Kingdoms are Zhuge Liang and Cao Cao.
Lao Cao is a representative of the Legalists. You can tell from his original five-color stick, no matter whether you are a nobleman or a commoner, as long as you break the law, you will be punished.
If Kuai Liang is in Yangzhou, Liu Mang also wants to give him the Ministry of Punishment, but now it seems that he can only make Zhuge Liang work harder.
As for Li Yan's Armed Police Department, it is next to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. He only has the right to arrest people, and interrogation is the business of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.
"The Ministry of Rites is in charge of ceremonial affairs, schools, and imperial examinations. It is used for the five ceremonies of Kaoji, Jia, Jun, Bin, and Ji; it manages school affairs in Yangzhou, imperial examinations, and exchanges between vassals and princes. There are four divisions under the Ministry of Rites, which are: Ritual System Cleaning Department, in charge of ceremonies, military ceremonies, management of academic affairs, and imperial examinations; temple priest cleaning department, in charge of auspicious and ominous ceremonies; host and guest cleaning department, in charge of guest ceremonies and reception of foreign guests; fine meal cleaning department , in charge of the affairs of the house and the prison.” Liu Mang merged the recruiting hall and the diplomacy of the college into the Ministry of Rites.
"The candidate for Minister of Rites is Brother Shan Min!" Liu Mang said to Wen Wu below.
"Brother Shanming?" Yangzhou Wenwu didn't know who this Shanmin brother was, until a simple and honest young scribe from the outermost position behind them cupped his fists and said to Liu Mang above, "Pang Shanmin pays homage to the lord, thank you for your kindness!"
This person is Pang Shanmin, Liu Mang and the others were able to come out of Wuxi, and then return to Yangzhou from Jingzhou, among which the Pang family made a lot of effort.
What does the Ministry of Rites care about! He is in charge of education, diplomacy, and the recruiting office. Above this position, he should be a great Confucian. In this way, you can teach as a great Confucian. You can preside over your interests as a great Confucian. Because of the people's livelihood of the great Confucianism, he is full of peaches and plums, so he can naturally recruit talents. Let Pang Shanmin come. In addition to Liu Mang wanting to return the favor of Pang Shanmin's father Pang Degong, there is another reason. Don't underestimate this Pang Shanmin. He is in the minds of scholars. His understanding of Confucianism is still very important. Although his understanding of Confucianism is not as good as that of his father Pang Degong, he is still a gentleman. The most important thing is that with Master Pang here, many students from Lumen Academy will come. Liu Mang was naturally happy about it.
"The last one is the decree of the Ministry of War in charge of the selection and simplification of the military guards and military officers of the whole state. Nationality and military status. There are four divisions under the Ministry of War: the Department of Military Selection and Clearance, which assesses the grades of military officials and the selection, promotion, succession, and entrustment of military officials, and manages chieftains; Post office and other affairs; official official clean-up department, in charge of military official's meritorious service, review, pension, military briefing, inspection, patrol, etc., and manage customs and sea ban; arsenal clean-up official department, in charge of the soldiers of the whole country Registration, military weapons, and martial arts examinations. In addition, the Qing Dynasty set up the Salary Office, which is in charge of inspecting military officials' salaries; the Huitong Hall, which manages the affairs of the capital station; the News Office, which handles the delivery of documents."
"The Minister of the Ministry of War, teach Wenhe!" Liu Mang still thought about Jia Xu who was still in Wuxi, and left him the position of Minister of the Ministry of War.
"A cabinet will be established above the six ministries!" Liu Mang said to the crowd below.
"There are eleven people in the cabinet, all six ministers can enter, and the remaining five can be military marshals, or cabinet bachelors, who can participate in discussions, and this king is also one of them!" Liu Mang is the owner of Yangzhou, so he naturally needs enter.
"Xu Shu is the prime minister of the cabinet, and supports all the affairs of the cabinet! If I am not in command of the Yangzhou army!" Liu Mang said to his subordinates, Xu Shu is the boss of the six departments. Discuss with each other, if there are many people who agree, then it will be passed, if there are few people who agree, then it will be re-discussed, or it will be abandoned. Only when both sides have five people in favor and five people against, then find Liu Mang, the master, and let Liu Mang decide whether to proceed. Of course, Liu Mang also has the right to veto or agree.
In addition to the six ministers of the cabinet, the remaining members of the cabinet are Xu Shu, Chen Gong from Lujiang, and Liu Mang's cheap father-in-law Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian. "
Liu Mang's orders were sent to the whole of Yangzhou. All the officials in Yangzhou were mobilized, which department they belonged to, whether they should step down or be promoted. Liu Mang didn't have to worry about these. With each other.
The reason why Liu Mang didn't directly call the cabinet the prime minister was because he was just a prince, and it wasn't that the Emperor Han was not qualified to be a prime minister, but the small court in Yangzhou was enough to run.
After the six parts were completed, Yangzhou’s decrees were issued one by one smoothly, and everyone performed their duties. Unlike the original time, you can manage what I can manage, and finally shirk each other’s responsibilities.
"The sixth part of the lord, let me change the atmosphere of Yangzhou!" Xu Shu said to Liu Mang in admiration.
Liu Mang could only chuckle, he didn't come up with the Six Parts, but those capable people and strangers came up with it later, just like the Nine Grades Zhongzheng System and the Sangong Jiuqing.
The six parts are just a more clear division of labor.
Liu Mang also didn't have the energy to explain to Xu Shu, he was too tired, last night he fought for hundreds of rounds, the enemy had four generals, all of them were generals, even if Liu Mang was a strong general in the world, he couldn't handle it Stay, these few days, Liu Mang almost hides when he sees those four women, but he just can't dodge, these four will always come around at night, finally Liu Mang took a rest, that is also one of them is on her period Yes, but we still have to fight against the three of them that night.
During this battle, there is still a stunner like Zou family in the mansion, who is willing to wink at Liu Mang every day, who can bear it.
"Then Gongsundu's war horses are here!" Gongsundu's envoy selected a hundred war horses from the Bingzhou wolf riders, both male and female, and brought them back. He couldn't afford to take more. One Arabian war horse has to be exchanged for fifty ordinary horses, who can bear it.
"Send it back! In addition to the 5,000 war horses this time, there are also 5,000 war horses bought by my army, a total of 10,000 horses. More than 300 horses died on the way, and now there are only 9,700 horses left. It's a horse!" Xu Shu reported.
"Okay, assign all those war horses to the army, and let the Bingzhou wolf cavalry and Xiliang iron cavalry choose first. Let them achieve one man with two horses as soon as possible!" Liu Mang said to Xu Shu who was beside him.
"My lord, aren't these war horses used to expand the army?" Xu Shu asked Liu Mang suspiciously. Xiliang iron cavalry and Bingzhou wolf cavalry both have war horses. In the past, it was impossible to expand the cavalry without horses, but now that there are so many horses, it is not possible to expand the army.
"Expand the army?" Liu Mang shook his head, "It's not easy." The cavalry is not fighting on foot. If you are on foot, you only need to put on armor and have a sword. The cavalry has to train riding skills.
"Don't we have stirrups and saddles!" With stirrups and saddles, it can be said that training is much easier.
"Forget it, these war horses are not the Arabian war horses I brought back, they can't match in stamina or explosive power!" Liu Mang said to Xu Shu, if it is to expand the army. It is possible to form a new heavy armored cavalry, but Liu Mang does not want to be so militaristic. Those armor and weapons used by soldiers, which one does not cost money? One person and two horses with the Xiliang iron cavalry is to improve their combat effectiveness. Usually, they ride those war horses bought from Liaodong. Once the battle is about to charge, they immediately change horses so that they can maintain their horsepower and maximize their combat effectiveness.
"By the way, five hundred horses will be allocated from inside! No! One thousand war horses will be allocated to Pang Shanmin!" Liu Mang said to Xu Shu.
"To Pang Shangshu?"
"yes!"
"He doesn't need so many horses there. It's fine to send pack horses to transport things!"
"No! These horses are sent to the academy." Liu Mang said to Xu Shu, "Six arts of a gentleman, Yuan Zhi. How many do you know!"
"Ritual, music, archery, royal, book, number. My lord, you are testing me!"
"In the academy, you can only learn rites, music, and numbers! But you can't learn riding and archery."
"My lord, what do you mean?"
"What's the use of a group of scholars who only know how to know everything! I want them to learn how to ride and shoot." Liu Mang said to Xu Shu who was beside him. "Yangzhou Academy is about to be established. Everyone who comes out of the academy must learn to ride and shoot. Unless he is physically disabled, he will not even think about graduating." Liu Mang wants to make literati strong, don't patronize reading Those who have read the body and have no power to restrain the chicken, before the Wei and Jin Dynasties, scholars could ride and shoot, but after the Wei and Jin Dynasties! A scholar can only use one mouth, which is why a scholar meets a soldier.
Practicing riding and archery can not only strengthen the body, but also maintain a kind of vitality and wildness.
"Boom!" While Liu Mang and Xu Shu were still discussing, a loud noise rang out outside Shouchun City, and the sound could be heard for tens of miles around.
"What's going on? Did it thunder?" Xu Shu asked suspiciously. He looked at the weather. It wasn't cloudy. Without clouds, there would be no rain. Why did thunder suddenly sound
"It's not thunder!" Liu Mang shook his head, he looked at the direction of the explosion sound, the south of Shouchun City.
Liu Mang's eyes lit up, "Pig Raising Industrial Zone?" Liu Mang then remembered that his Yangzhou Industrial Park was in the south of Shouchun City, and he was a little familiar with the sound of the explosion.
"Hurry up, send someone to go to Shouchun Industrial Zone to see what's going on!" Liu Wei said to the people under his command.
"Yes!" The guards quickly nodded and were about to leave.
"Forget it!" Liu Mang stopped them, "Prepare my horse quickly, I will go to the Ministry of Industry in Shouchun in person!" Liu Mang, who is now in the industrial park and belongs to the Ministry of Industry, then called the Ministry of Industry.
Soon Liu Mang's war horses were ready. He was going to prepare a carriage for Liu Mang, but Liu Mang disliked that the carriage might delay the time, so he ordered two batches of war horses. The reason for wanting two war horses is because there is another Xu Shu around.
One person and one horse, Xu Shu also quickly got on the horse, and the two followed the guards and headed directly towards the Shouchun Industrial Park.
"What's going on, what's going on!" When Liu Mang arrived there, the industrial park was shattered, and flames were still burning in many places, and many people were trying to put them out. The scene was all ruins. Some bodies were put aside.
"This, this, is this the thunder in the daytime?" Xu Shu stared at everything in front of him with wide eyes. He couldn't think of what would cause the current scene, and there was only divine power or thunder.
"It's not thunder!" Liu Mang sniffed his nose, and there was a smell that Liu Mang was very familiar with in the air. "Smell of gunpowder?" Liu Mang's eyes lit up.
"Smell of gunpowder?" Xu Shu didn't know what gunpowder the lord was talking about.
"Where's Zi Yang!" Liu Mang shouted suddenly, this is the industrial park where his Ministry of Industry is located, logically he should come to welcome Liu Ye when Liu Mang arrives.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Liu Mang was a little flustered, this Liu Ye and Liu Ziyang wouldn't use gunpowder to kill himself.
"My lord, my lord!" A black African suddenly appeared in front of Liu Mang, startling Liu Mang. (to be continued..)
