Chapter 678 busy

Ying Jieyan had been with the young emperor for a long time, and although it was still difficult to figure out what he thought, he also knew that what His Majesty did was to restore the country, and it was inevitable that he would be a little naive and impatient. However, his nature was pure and good, but he didn't want to hurt anyone, especially those old ministers in court. After all, these people followed the dynasty through hardships and never left behind. Although they had no contribution, they had worked hard. Otherwise, if someone else had started a purge to eliminate those "dissidents" from the dynasty.

Today's incident came suddenly and didn't even discuss it with me. Judging from the strictness of the court, it was not that I had lost my holy heart. It was precisely that His Majesty did not want to get involved in the struggle between the court, and there was still room for maneuver once it was in a deadlock. In his opinion, the three old ministers who were admitted to the Bachelor's Academy seemed more appropriate to regard them as staff. After all, those people were not young and could not bear heavy government affairs. At the moment, they were just a reminder to those who were lucky, not to change the current situation.

Liu Fu is obviously unable to understand the intentions of the little emperor, so he is worried that his majesty would do impulsive things in anger and cause turmoil. This shows that his goal has been achieved. After all, at this time of crisis, no one wants to trigger the government affairs, especially Lu Xiufu and Wen Tianxiang, who are the chief minister, said that although the little emperor's words were tough, they also made compromises and did not forcibly advance the same level of civil and military. I think they would not understand that this is the last chance His Majesty left them.

Seeing that Liu Fu was still awakened again, Ying Jieyan naturally had to advise him not to misinterpret the young emperor's intentions. The most important thing at the moment is to cooperate with him to complete the first step of military reform. We should also pay attention to the movements of some people to prevent those extremely conservative scholars from taking risks to threaten His Majesty's safety. At the same time, we should try our best to assist the two prime ministers in doing military reforms well, so as to avoid someone taking the opportunity to create rumors and forming a force to force the palace...

After the military reform was fully unfolded, Zhao Bing's affairs naturally increased. As the reforms were the Ministry of War and the Privy Council, the positions of the Ministry of War and the Privy Council had many changes, and the chief officials had to be re-selected. After consultation, Gao Yingsong, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, was re-selected. After discussion, Gao Yingsong, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War, was also in charge of the Ministry of War, the Military Service and the Bailout Department; Jiang Jin, the commander of the imperial guards in front of the palace, was transferred to the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War, and also in charge of the four departments of the Infantry, Liu Yi, the Infantry, Lu Shiwen, the Shui Army, Huang Xianyao, the Shui Army, and Ma Fa were the Shui Army.

The Privy Council still regarded Zhang Shijie as the envoy of the Privy Council, and Liu Shiyong was the co-magistrate of the Privy Council. He was under the jurisdiction of the Infantry Yamen, the Navy Yamen and the Office Office, and the Commander and the Jiyi Office. The Infantry Yamen was mainly appointed Zhao Mengjin, the Navy Yamen was mainly appointed Liu Zhu, the Office was mainly appointed, the Office was appointed Jiang Zongjie as the Doctor, the Commander and Han Zhen as the Doctor, and the Jiyi Office was temporarily appointed Mao Xiang, the former Minister of War.

After the upper level adjustment is completed, the two departments must complete the handover and start work within one month, which can be said to be tight and time is heavy. The army can be said to be the lifeblood of Zhao Bing. The transfer of civil servants above the sixth rank and commander and commander above needs to be reviewed carefully to ensure that the policies he formulates can be implemented, and the use of them is not human, and at the same time avoids being mixed with "sand".

This adjustment involved several departments and provinces, and hundreds of officials were transferred and added, but Zhao Bing still did not dare to be careless. He drew personnel from the Bureau of Affairs and worked with the Imperial Front Office to review the recommended and intended appointment personnel. The standard is to be honest in family affairs, strong political integrity, proficient in business, civil servants have experience in serving in the army, and military personnel have experience in leading troops to fight.

As a result, the workload increased greatly. Not only did the people in the imperial office work night and night, Zhao Bing was of course uninterrupted, and the candlelight in the Danbo Pavilion was often not out all night. During the day, he not only participated in routine court meetings, but also had to hold a meeting to coordinate the work of various departments and ordered all ministers to come to the palace to see and inquire about the situation. In addition, because the changes in the military reform involved in the organization, it inevitably caused people's hearts to stir. In addition, in addition to summoning military generals from various departments to explain and appease, he also went to various troops to inspect to stabilize the morale of the army. It can be said that he worked day and night and had a rare rest...

At the end of August, the departments finally completed the adjustment under the strict urging of Zhao Bing. After a brief internal rectification, the Ministry of War and the Privy Council began to work normally in mid-September, and then the reorganization of the various armies was fully launched, and this task was even more cumbersome and complicated. At this moment, Chen Dianyan led his army to capture Zhangzhou again, and the Mongolian Yuan mobilized a large army to clear it out, which shocked the southeast for a while.

This was the case that Chen Xiaoyan claimed that the king's independence was also known to the court. The ministers in the court wrote letters, asking for the extermination of the rebellion, or asking for peace to this unit. Zhao Bing found that the attitude of the ministers in the court towards this matter was somewhat subtle.

The people who advocated the extermination of Chen Dianyan and his "rebels" were a group of civil officials. They thought that Chen Dianyan, as the people of the Song Dynasty, did not want to serve the country, but took advantage of the decline of the country to gather people to build a country and establish themselves, and did not follow the truth of the Celestial Empire as the main principle. This was actually a rebellion of the Song Dynasty. If they were not eliminated in time, the rioters in various places would follow their examples, which would hinder the great cause of restoration.

The military officials who have always been in charge of war were opposed to sending troops to suppress Chen Dianyan, thinking that although they were independent, they did not mainly follow the Mongolian Yuan, but were under the banner of anti-Yuan, which was in line with the court. The court could grant envoys and envoys, and take this anti-Yuan force for their own use as a helper for the future battle to restore the country, but not cross-sea expeditions and suppression, which would only consume military power and money and food, which would only help the evil.

Zhao Bing suppressed all the memorials like snowflakes, and did not argue. He knew that the civil officials asked to clear Chen Jiuyan. One was to show his determination to firmly safeguard the integrity of the court at this delicate moment; the other was that they were still wary of Chen Jiuyan and other chaotic people, fearing that they would surrender to the Mongolian Yuan and turn to the court. The warriors did not have so many tricks, and everything was based on reality. One was that Chen Jiuyan had helped the Song army attack Quanzhou, and he still had a charity and affection; the other was that more than half of the soldiers in the army were from a righteous background, and they would inevitably feel sad when they beat them by themselves.

Now that the military reform is deepening, Zhao Bing certainly refused to send troops, and he had already made arrangements, so he only informed the several prime ministers of his knowledge and asked them to suppress the matter. Of course, his arrangements in it were kept secret to prevent the leak from causing the incident to ruin Mrs. Xu and even ruined his plan. In fact, the Affairs Bureau had contacted Mrs. Xu before Chen Diaoyan started the incident. As Zhao Bing expected, he was still in love with the court, and he was naturally surprised to get the news of his younger brother. He was even more grateful for the little emperor's actions of repaying his kindness and swearing to be loyal to His Majesty.

On the night of August 15, Chen Dianyan led the coalition forces to take the opportunity to raid Zhangzhou City again. This time, the Yuan army guarding the city was killed in 100,000 yuan. Chen Dianyan's army was powerful and the number of troops increased sharply. In the battle to attack Zhangzhou, Mrs. Xu obtained a large number of weapons and armored troops, and with elite troops, the rebel army led by him was naturally the first to attack the city, and not only got the largest piece of cake, but also the number of troops increased to 30,000.

Later, when Kublai Khan learned that Zhangzhou had lost again and suffered heavy losses, he was furious and ordered Gao Xing to set up a Marshal Xingdu in Jianning Prefecture to suppress it. He also ordered Wanzhedu to attack Marshal of the Barbarians in Fujian and other places, leading 5,000 troops to join Gao Xing. Under the threat of heavy troops, Chen Dianyan led his troops out of Zhangzhou City and returned to Yunxiao to build more than 50 camps in the mountains and defended them by the king's orders.

This time, the Yuan army did not send troops to attack Chen Diaoyan, who had strong troops. After Wanzhe led his army to Fujian, he first used a large army to suppress the Huang Huayi army in Zhenghe, and bribed him with a large sum of money to recruit surrender to the deputy marshal of the barbarians. As Zhao Bing expected, Huang Hua surrendered to the Mongolian Yuan, because Zhao Bing was ready to hear the news, and immediately notified the spies lurking in Huang Hua's army to lead more than 10,000 troops to join Mrs. Xu, and separated from Huang Hua's troops and moved towards the Fenghuang Mountain area in Guangdong. While avoiding the enemy's edge, he received supplies, carried out training, and established a base.

The Yuan army took advantage of Huang Hua's familiarity with the characteristics of fighting in the mountains of Fujian and ordered Huang Hua to drive out the Chen Dianyan, Zhangzhou, to fight against the Yuan uprising army. He was familiar with the characteristics of the rebel army's cross-campus operations and led the Yuan army to advance step by step. Huang Hua's surrender and Mrs. Xu's evacuation made the rebel alliance break up, making it difficult for north and south to echo each other. Huang Hua was familiar with the characteristics of mountain combat and knew that Chen Dianyan was ineffective and ineffective. With his assistance, Chen Dianyan was defeated several villages.

Chen Dianyan divided his troops to resist the enemy. With his uncle Chen Guilong stationed in the nine-story mountain fortress, he led a unit to the mountain fortress in Zhangpufeng, Chen Sanguan stationed in Shuicunshe, Luo Bantian stationed in Meilong Changjiao, and Chen Dafu stationed in Kezhai. They defended with the dangerous terrain, which made the Yuan army unable to break through for a while, but suffered major casualties. Now the battle situation is temporarily deadlocked, and the two armies form their own camps to confront each other.

His thoughts were the same as before. Zhao Bing was not interested in recruiting or extermination now. There was no need to help the evildoer to eliminate him. It would be good for him to die a few more Yuan army. The recruitment of the police was not a business. Although Chen Diaoyan suffered a little setback, his popularity was in full swing and would never accept recruiting, but instead put forward some conditions. If the court was allowed to recognize his status, what would he do? The Song Dynasty also had a precedent for the rebels to be crowned kings, so he was simply asking for trouble!

Of course, Zhao Bing still had to take action in the end, but when Chen Diaoyan realized his mistake, it would not be himself who cleaned up the mess for him, but Mrs. Xu. This would have no intention of humiliating him, but instead made him realize that if he wanted to break away from the court, he would not succeed. He had to rely on the court and support the emperor to live a good life. If he could not understand his intention, he would be embarrassed and could only watch him die...

It was soon early winter again, but Hainan was not divided into winter and summer, but the rain was less. The second phase of the military reform came to an end. The army formed a total of ten infantry divisions, two cavalry brigades, three artillery brigades and five baggage brigades, plus the imperial guards, a total of 150,000 troops; the navy was organized into an attack fleet, a support fleet, a baggage fleet and a firepower fleet, and was stationed in three water police areas south of the island, north of the island and east of the island. In addition, the war soldiers were organized into three naval and land brigades, with a total of more than 1,200 warships of all sizes and sizes, with a total of more than 60,000 troops.

At the same time, the six-year basic training of the new army has ended, and it has been transferred to the specialized training based on the training situation and volunteer preparations. Zhao Bing decided to merge the basic training of the new army and the flag-raising ceremony of each army, and the location is in the completed new army camp. In the past, he felt that this kind of ritualization was very troublesome and even a little disgusted. However, the various rituals held in the army were exceptional. The reason for this may be because he studied science and engineering, so he liked the beauty of lines. In addition, he felt that the rituals in the army could not only improve morale, but also enhance the sense of honor and dignity of soldiers.

On the first day of November, Zhao Bing changed into military uniform early in the morning. After having breakfast, he couldn't wait to get on the bus. Under the protection of the first battalion of cavalry, he left the city to go to the new army camp. He has been here again since the survey of the site at the end of last year. At this time, the road leading to the barracks had been built. It took less than half an hour for the barracks to be seen. As he got closer and closer to the barracks, Zhao Bing became more and more excited. Although the barracks were designed by him, it can be said that they knew everything in their hearts, but they still felt very shocked when they saw the real thing.

In order to build the New Army military camp, Zhao Bing successively allocated 100,000 taels of silver, and the entire camp covers an area of ​​more than 3,000 acres. The entire military camp is divided into four parts, including a large playground, headquarters, division and north-south shooting range. Its architectural pattern Zhao Bing was built with reference to the modern military camp, and it was a brick-and-tile structure complex with strict weather. There are tall walls on all sides, rivers are protected outside the walls, and trees on both sides of the river are lined up.

The gate of the military camp is open on the south side, opposite to it with a tall screen wall across the river. The gate tower is tall and has three rooms wide. Its majestic momentum can be compared with the gate of the palace in the city. The vermilion gate is decorated with copper nails and copper rings, and a horizontal plaque with five large characters written by Zhao Bing by Zhao Bing was hung on the lintel. There are high stone steps in front of the door, and the south road in front of the steps directly leads to the river bank. There are pairs of stone lions about a meter high on both sides of the south road, and a flat bridge is mounted on the river to open the playground.

The entire camp has more than 800 barracks. The headquarters is built with Guishan as the center, covering an area of ​​about 200 acres, divided into two courtyards in the north and south. The north courtyard is the living area. The south courtyard is the center and teaching area of ​​the military camp, and is also divided into east, middle, west, and three courtyards. The east and west courtyards are classrooms and military dormitories. Each has ten rows of blue brick tiled houses with long corridors. The layout is symmetrical, and each row of houses has corridors connected. Each row of houses forms an independent courtyard with a moon-shaped door. Each courtyard houses about one soldier.

There is an office monk martial arts hall in the Intermediate Courtyard. The tall Shangwu Hall faces north and south, surrounded by stone railings, carved beams and painted roads, and is magnificent. There are couplets on both sides of the hall door, which read: "Shangfu Yinfu and Wuhou's strategy, concisely figure it out into a hall; he has ambitions to serve the country, tie his hair to join the army, and the students are looking for it." Although this was done by Zhao Bing, it was definitely a copycat.

There is a corridor in front of the hall to the school gate. To the north of Shangwu Hall is a large empty courtyard. Two tall ancient trees transplanted from the courtyard, a bronze bell hanging between the two trees, and a reading stand in front is used for military generals to teach and issue orders here, so it is regarded as the center of the school. On the east side of the camp headquarters is a branch, covering an area of ​​100 acres. The shooting range is north of the branch, covering an area of ​​more than 400 acres. The playground is half-framed, guarding the camp headquarters from the north, west and south, covering an area of ​​more than 800 acres...
