Chapter 34
In the early morning, Zhao Bing counted the food in the house with his fingers again, and couldn't help but sigh. Biqu w?w?w?.
?b i q?u?g?e?.
?cnZhuang Shilin has been gone for five days as of today. If he goes by the current consumption rate, he may barely be able to last for ten days. In other words, if he cannot return on time, everyone will stop. He deliberately changed three meals to two meals to save money.
Food is needed for emergencies, but now is the critical time for him to reorganize the palace. If the supply is reduced, it may cause instability in people's hearts, so he must be cautious.
"Your Highness, several stewards have been waiting in the side hall for a while." Wang De saw that His Highness had changed his clothes and sat in front of the window, clasping his fingers, sometimes shaking his head, sometimes sighing, and slumped like a seventy-year-old. Although it was funny in his heart, he still reminded him.
.
"Let them come back in the afternoon, and I will take a closer look at their plan." Zhao Bing glanced at Wang De and said. Yesterday, Cai Wanyi and the others submitted the agreed-upon rectification plan. He looked at it and was not satisfied, but
I haven't figured out how to change it yet.
"Your Highness, is there something wrong?" Wang De leaned forward and asked.
"It's generally okay, but some areas need to be improved..." Zhao Bing said casually, but suddenly thought of something, turned to look at Wang Dedao, "Have you been entrusted by someone to test my reputation?"
"Your Highness... how dare you! I just looked at Your Highness's sorrow and asked more questions." The smile on Wang De's face immediately froze and he said coquettishly.
"Really?" Zhao Bing glanced at Wang De with a half-smile and said, "It's best if you don't mean this. Just do your job well. I don't like people who talk too much."
"I have no intention of spying on His Highness, and I don't dare to talk to those people from outside the palace." Although His Highness only glanced at him and then lowered his head to read the statement, Wang De was worried when he was called out, so he quickly defended himself.
? Biqu Ge w?w w?.
?b?i?q?In fact, he has understood the key points after many years in the palace. The first is to coax the master well, and the second is to have foreign aid. Judging from the current situation, His Highness's trust in the foreign government is obviously better than that of himself, so he wants to use his
He used his advantage to win over the stewards of the foreign government, but his highness saw through it unexpectedly.
"Well, have you ever met your empress?" Zhao Bing nodded and asked seemingly unintentionally.
"Oh, I didn't see it." His Highness's words made Wang Deju aroused again, and he opened his mouth and said. But then sweat appeared on his face, and he secretly wondered how he knew about the fact that he went to the palace to see the Queen Mother, but His Highness's words seemed to be irritating.
He was not sure, and Wang De couldn't figure out whether His Highness was testing him, or whether he really knew what he said, and he felt even more uneasy.
"Oh, I also miss my empress and brother Huang very much. I haven't seen them since I handed over the sign several times." Zhao Bing sighed again. He knew that his biggest supporter was not the emperor or Liu Fu, but the queen mother who listened to politics behind the curtain.
.But he was not able to see her even once after returning, which made him feel a little unsure.
"I heard from people who are acquainted with her in the palace that the empress often mentioned His Highness and she was very concerned about him. She did not see His Highness just because she was worried about His Highness being infected with the disease." His Highness turned to him, which made Wang De sigh in relief and raised his hand to wipe his sweat.
"May God bless your royal brother to get well as soon as possible." Zhao Bing raised his hands to the sky and said, "In the future, don't have to report everything to the empress when you enter the palace, so as not to worry the empress."
"I understand, your Highness. Your Highness is kind, filial and considerate. Your Majesty will definitely be pleased to know this." At this moment, no matter how stupid Wang De is, he understands. Besides, he is not stupid. He already understands in his heart that His Highness is warning him not to talk too much in front of His Majesty.
Talk a lot, say what you should say, and shut up what you shouldn't say, otherwise you won't get any good results. You'd better leave quickly and salute quickly, "I'll go outside to spread the word first, so that everyone in charge won't have to wait too long.
?b?i?q?u?”
"Well, go ahead!" Zhao Bing waved his hand and saw Wang De bowing and retreating with a smile on his lips. He knew very well that Wang De was sent by the Queen Mother to take care of him, and he would definitely tell the Queen Mother everything about the house.
He also understood that although he had tried his best to control it and always warned himself that he was just a child now, he would still inevitably say some inappropriate words or do strange things unconsciously. Wang De might not be able to notice it, but it didn't mean that the Queen Mother was not aware of it. Therefore, he must
I have to give him a beating and warn him that there are some things he cannot say, but with his cleverness, Zhao Bing believes that he can understand what he means...
"What should we do?" After reading the rectification plan sent by several stewards again, Zhao Bing felt a headache. Previously, he was worried that there would be no one around him, but now he is worried about having too many people. Originally, he only wanted to form a capable guard team.
Army, the number of people does not need to be too large, so that it is easy to maneuver and hide, and more importantly, the small number is easy to manage and support. Now, more than 5,000 people have gathered in the mansion accidentally. Such a large team with its own special
It is difficult to avoid attracting attention, and this also adds a series of problems.
The royal palace rectification plan formulated by Cai Wanyi and others is relatively detailed, but they also know the appropriateness. The official positions and personnel of the palace are all fixed, and they are not the ones who dare to arrange them at will. Therefore, the plan only involves the outer palace.
The reorganization of the Volunteers. According to their plan, the Volunteers will be divided into several parts:
First, young and strong people who are honest, simple, strong in martial arts, and have practical combat experience are selected from the volunteers to form the prince's bodyguard camp, which is led by experienced and trusted generals to guard the palace and protect the safety of His Highness; secondly, the strong and strong people are selected from the volunteers to form the Wuying Township.
The army is divided into a central military camp and five commanders, front, rear, left and right. Each command has five capitals and two teams in each capital. Each of them chooses a person with a reputation to lead them. Finally, the next-level volunteers are selected to form a battalion.
, responsible for transporting grain and grass, setting up camps and other auxiliary work; redundant personnel will be dismissed.
Zhao Bing has no experience in politics, and certainly no experience in local governance, but he has been a senior manager of an enterprise, so he naturally knows that when preparing to build a new unit, he must first 'establish an organization, divide tasks into responsibilities', and build a skeleton. This rectification plan is rough.
It seems that this principle is adhered to, but upon closer inspection, there is something wrong. No matter how small a unit is, it usually has several departments including finance, production, general affairs, security, personnel and office, but their planning is only "production".
The two departments, '' and 'Security', have no auxiliary departments. It can be said that one department is the only one. The result is that the leadership is neglected and it is difficult to control the overall situation.
Another problem is that when the royal guards were first established, they faced the dilemma of being surrounded by mountains. After the two kings fled, Zhao Bing was named the King of Guards, deputy commander of the world's troops and horses, and Zongzheng of the outer vassal. It was said that he had already established a government office and could conquer
He appointed a staff, recruited troops and established his own business. However, due to the chaos of the current situation, he was still young, so he used to accompany the Queen Mother and the Emperor. In addition to a group of internal servants, maids, cooks, wet nurses and other handymen, he still arrived at Jiazimen
Afterwards, a group of Imperial Guards were assigned as guards, so the Commander's Mansion was naturally in name only. It was precisely because of the innate shortcomings of Prince Wei's Mansion that Zhao Bing had no confidants to rely on, so everything had to start from scratch.
The people gathered around him at this moment were also of a mixed composition, mainly composed of survivors from Zhao Mengjin's group of epidemic ships, officers and soldiers serving the king from all over Quanzhou, volunteers, and the survivors who had no food and clothing after the ceremony. In Quanzhou, volunteers accounted for 60% of the total.
They are still strong, but they are divided into several small groups based on different regions and clan leaders, and they do not belong to each other. If they are separated, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction. This can be seen from the uneven number of people in each battalion.
The reorganization focused on retaining one's cronies, thus neglecting other aspects.
"Haha, everything has its disadvantages, and of course it has its advantages!" Zhao Bing looked at it for a moment and suddenly laughed, laughing at himself for forgetting this objective law. The situation in front of him seemed to be unfavorable to him, but on the other hand, it was not wrong for them to rely on him.
During the Quanzhou Incident, King Qin's bravery and the soldiers from all walks of life fought bloody battles to rescue the two kings. It should be appreciated by the court, or at least look at him differently, but the result was that he was ignored, like someone who had abandoned his shoes, and could not even guarantee a minimum life.
Although Zhao Bing didn't know the specific twists and turns, this was the most important reason that forced these people to defect to him as the nominal lord. In other words, if he left the palace, he would have nowhere to go, and he only needed to seize the financial and personnel rights.
You can control the situation.
There are also advantages and disadvantages to each other's "grouping" situation. The disadvantage is that the rural soldiers come from the same place, have certain blood and kinship relationships with each other, or are attached to each other because of the land, so they are very united internally and only obey the clan leader.
The orders they received were similar to those of the imperial soldiers during the Han and Tang dynasties. However, if it went against their interests, they would often disobey orders collectively, get into disputes with other troops, or even mutiny, so they were not easy to lead.
Also based on neighborhood and blood relationships, they are different from the ordinary superior-subordinate relationship between soldiers and officers in the usual recruiting army. In the ordinary army, you will charge wherever I command. Whether you die or not has nothing to do with me. Anyway,
The country gives you a salary. But these rural soldiers are different. Due to the existence of a special relationship, there is no reason not to work hard. Therefore, the soldiers under the government military system are very brave and united internally. The generals cherish the soldiers very much, and the soldiers fight hard.
Now the volunteers have nowhere to go. In addition, they suffered heavy casualties in the battle with the Yuan army, including fathers, sons and brothers. They had a bloody feud with the Mongols. Moreover, these powerful people may not be highly educated, but they are loyal and anxious.
When faced with difficulties, he is fair, compassionate, and very energetic. He has great prestige among the masses and reveals the charm of his character in the ordinary, just like the characters Chao Gai and Shi Jin in "Water Margin".
Therefore, there is almost no possibility of surrender. As long as you use it well, you will be a loyal army.
"It's hard to be a good person?" Regarding the issue of eliminating the old and the weak, Zhao Bing knew that it was the right choice when supplies were insufficient and battles might break out from time to time. However, it was very cruel to those who were eliminated, which also made him
My conscience is uneasy, it is even more difficult, and it is difficult to make up my mind.
