182 Conviction
After returning, Bai Xiaosheng summoned his intelligence officer and checked the latest information.
In less than two months after his departure, the Song Dynasty was very lively.
Chaos occurred in Shandong, Hubei, Yunnan and other places one by one, and the chaos in Jiangnan was still there. Murong Fu devoted all his strength to guard Su Yang and prevent the Song army from crossing the line.
Not long ago, the Song soldiers also launched an attack on Guanzhong, but under Xiao Feng's guard, they defeated the Song soldiers in turn, leaving them back in vain.
Of course, if the biggest change is the atmosphere in Guanzhong. Under Bai Xiaosheng's plan, the staff meeting went deep into the land of Guanzhong, from top to bottom, from his grand marshal to the local county magistrate, there was a staff bureau to jointly counsel political and military affairs. According to the plan he left behind, Guanzhong's rest and recuperation also went well. A large amount of supplies were taken to the countryside, and there were also students who were rooted in the countryside.
In a word, Bai Xiaosheng's plan has blossomed in Guanzhong and is waiting for its fruit.
In the Jingzhao Government Affairs Hall, Xiao Feng patted Bai Xiaosheng on the shoulder happily and said, "Second brother, you are back. These days, my elder brother is so busy that he doesn't touch the ground."
Bai Xiaosheng smiled slightly and said, "Brother, I did this for your own good. As the saying goes, Da Niu is in the city, and you, the hero, become the boss of Guanzhong, is Da Niu."
"Just just talk nonsense." Xiao Feng smiled bitterly, "If you didn't want to go out, how could your elder brother suffer?"
Shaking his head, Bai Xiaosheng said seriously: "Brother, I will tell you something to heart. At the beginning, I just planned to protect one side, but now it's not my turn to retreat. Brother, I hope you can help me." He looked serious and his eyes were full of sincerity.
Xiao Feng shut up and said with a bitter face, "Second brother, you don't know, brother, I'm not a Song Dynasty person!"
"Brother, what's the difference between the Song people and the Liao people? They are all humans! The difference is that everyone belongs to each other. Look at the Song Dynasty, there are not many other ethnic groups." Holding Xiao Feng's hand, Bai Xiao said vividly: "Brother, believe me, brother is not to be an emperor, I just want to give everyone a good life. And when I went out this time, I had an idea. I plan to abolish the family-style emperor and change it to abdication."
"Abdicate..." Xiao Feng exclaimed in surprise and said in surprise: "Brother, don't you want to learn from the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, right?"
Bai Xiaosheng nodded and said, "No, I just want to learn from the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. My brother also knows that no matter how smart a country is in a founding monarch, his descendants will definitely have a foolish monarch, which is inevitable for family emperors. But the abdication style is different, and you don't have the ability to become an emperor. My brother also knows my staff. I first established the staff just to cultivate talents, but later I saw that the staff was easy to use, so I thought of gathering the strength of everyone to build Guanzhong together. Now it seems very good. I plan to divide the staff into two, turn it into a political bureau and a military bureau, separate the military and political bureau. In addition to the two, a logistics department will be established to control the world's materials and check and balance the two. In this way, neither of them has the ability to rebel."
"Brother, what do you think?"
Xiao Feng looked solemn and asked, "Second brother, tell me about their specific responsibilities."
Bai Xiaosheng explained with a spirit: "The Political Affairs Bureau is the place where the political affairs in the world are controlled. It can be divided into departments and halls, which separate various functions, such as education, etiquette, civil affairs, agriculture, water conservancy, etc. Each department has one minister and two deputy ministers, and can enter the Political Affairs Bureau and jointly discuss major affairs in the world. The Military Affairs Bureau is the representative of the military and discusses military affairs. The Logistics Department is the bridge and checks and balances between the two. The Logistics Department is the control of the materials of the world, holding the throat of the army, so that they have no capital for rebellion. Similarly, they are also in charge of the finance of the Political Affairs Bureau, so that they cannot do anything. In order to balance the Political Affairs Bureau and the Military Affairs Bureau, the officials of the Logistics Department can be merged into the two."
Bai Xiaosheng explained in detail that he summarized his few political experiences, combined with the lessons he learned these days, summarized and summarized his own imperial official system.
In addition to these, he also specially brought out the law, combining the censor's command, the supervisory law, and the use of the county magistrate to form a small separation of powers.
In a word, Bai Xiaosheng used the separation of three powers thoroughly, allowing the three parties to disobey each other and supervise each other. This can eliminate all kinds of corruption and crimes to the greatest extent and give the people a fair and just society.
In addition, Bai Xiaosheng also abolished the slave relationship and replaced it with a contract to completely release the productivity of the people.
Xiao Feng was different from many of his things. Bai Xiaosheng answered questions again and again, and some things he had not thought well were also solved in the two of them.
What Xiao Feng cares about the most is probably Bai Xiaosheng’s policy of ethnic equality.
In this regard, he had few ideas, but compared to the people here, his approach was still good, and the most important one was to control the army. In ethnic minority areas, he suggested forming an army dominated by the Han people and supplemented by other ethnic groups. In this way, if the ethnic minorities lose their army, they will naturally lose the capital for rebellion. Similarly, in order not to allow ethnic minority groups to have a dwarf, he also proposed to establish a special ethnic minority unit, but the place where they serve cannot be in ethnic minority areas.
The two of them talked for a long time and night, but they were still not very interested and were very excited.
In the following period, Bai Xiaosheng and Xiao Feng were summoning officials and staff to discuss the feasibility and real-timeness of this general strategy. Half a month later, the staff was divided into two, and the number of people was selected from the officials below and the officers and the military bureau was established. As for the departments under the two, we will not describe them one by one.
After about three months of transformation, the Guanzhong official system has been completely renewed, and the staff department has blossomed everywhere, and it has become regular in various counties and towns. However, Bai Xiaosheng used the famous old men in the village as village chiefs, and selected talented young people to cooperate with the students below as staff to manage the village and seek development.
At the same time, the army has also completely expanded and reorganized. The entire Guanzhong area is divided into three parts. The first part is the combat soldiers, which are specialized troops, with 30,000 people, directly under the Grand Marshal's Office and the Military Bureau; the second part is the auxiliary soldiers, belonging to local military regions, maintaining local rule and guarding border defense; the third part is the reserve, which includes new soldiers and local militias in the military region.
The war soldiers were a sharp blade, and their existence was for the purpose of fighting. Therefore, after the war soldiers were reorganized, Bai Xiaosheng issued the first task - to capture Xingyuan Prefecture, namely Hanzhong.
In the past, Bai Xiaosheng released guerrillas and operated in Xingyuan Prefecture, Sichuan and other places, and there were also other places in order to make the entire Song Dynasty chaotic and gain time for the development of Guanzhong.
Now that Guanzhong has arrived in Ding and has developed into a regular basis, the guerrillas have also grown to a certain extent, and the army should move.
Under Xiao Feng's leadership, 20,000 combat soldiers and 30,000 auxiliary soldiers rushed to Xingyuan Prefecture. With the internal and external cooperation of the guerrillas, most parts of Hanzhong collapsed without fighting, and half of Hanzhong was included in the scope of Guanzhong's rule in less than ten days.
Later, the army encountered waves by chance, but it was still as powerful as a bamboo shoot. In less than a month, the entire Hanzhong was pacified.
Bai Xiaosheng had already given an order. The first order for the army to enter the Han Dynasty was to sweep away the landlords who were unkind and did not need to be polite to them. Xiao Feng was not very happy because there were too many people killed. However, he couldn't do it, because Bai Xiaosheng had been here all the way, and their food and wealth came from these wealthy families.
Just like Li Chuang in the late Ming Dynasty, if there were no such big families, how could his army have put forward the slogan of "not paying food". The wealth of these big families was beyond imagination.
Of course, Bai Xiaosheng would not concentrate all the sources of wealth here. Wouldn't he become Li Chuang? His method was to follow Taizu, put the land obtained from the big households on the national mark and distribute it to farmers. In some places with few people and many land, they would set up farms and send specialized people to manage it. In this way, agriculture will stabilize. Once agriculture is stable, other problems will no longer be big problems. Bai Xiaosheng has time to develop and plan.
Xiao Feng's army opened the way in front, Bai Xiaosheng organized and developed the company behind, and brought the logistics department to supply the army ahead. The guerrillas had good strategies and were the first to invade the internal forces, which could save half of the trouble.
Under the joint efforts of the two, Xiao Feng led a large army to sweep Bashu, successively conquered Chengdu, Gongzhou, advanced to the Tubo border in the west, went straight to Dali, Jianchang in the south, and the Yangtze River in the east, expanding the land for thousands of miles, directly quadrupled the land of Guanzhong.
