"Sir, I will rebuild my kindness to my subordinates. My subordinates are willing to go through fire and water for me. But, this position of Sitian as an army is really too important. My subordinates dare not fool me, so I ask my subordinates to take off their responsibilities and choose another, and choose a virtuous person!" After hearing Zheng Ziming say that he believed in 'I believe you', there was no further information for a long time. Li Shuner secretly looked at his face and reiterated it with a tough bullet.

"If you go to be the commander, you dare to fool it? I can't tell that you, Li Shun, are so bold!" Zheng Ziming's attention was quickly pulled back from his thoughts, gave Li Shun'er a blank look and asked in a deep voice.

"No, no, it's not that! I didn't mean that!" Li Shuner immediately became anxious and sweaty again. She waved her hand like a windmill and explained loudly, "I want to say that leading troops is different from managing affairs. In the front, the former subordinate barely did it, the latter, the latter, it really can't be done!"

"What's the difference?" Zheng Ziming knew that his subordinates were probably not just Li Shun'er who wanted to give up. The thoughts of several other commanders who were driving the ducks on the shelves were probably similar to those of Li Shun'er. He smiled and turned his head to ask.

"Teach, lead the troops, you can fight and hit people." Li Shun'er was forced to no avail, so she simply made up her mind and decided to tell the truth. "The guy who is more stubborn will be beaten up a few times and then beat him up. Then what will the adults ask for? The subordinates will take them together. As long as the order is enforced and rush in front everywhere, they will not be afraid of not completing the task assigned by the adults. Yes, but when Si Tian joins the army, you can't search the guys at any time!"

"Why can't you? If anyone doesn't do things well and is lip service, you can continue to fight! Just treat it as training recruits!" Zheng Ziming smiled and suggested loudly.

"Then, that won't work!" Li Shun was so scared that he made a cold war again, and waved his hand desperately, "All of them are all literati. How can he fight like a big-headed soldier? Besides, the subordinates and subordinates do not know anything, and it's not a fault for not accepting them!"

"Oh, so that's it!" Zheng Ziming suddenly realized when he heard this, and tapped the stone table with his fingers, as if he was smiling.

At present, although the key positions in the governor's yamen have been replaced with their own brothers, most of the minor officials working below are still the original team. Even if there are a few fresh blood recruited from outside, they are all precious scholars and men, and there is a natural gap between them and Li Shun and other big-headed soldiers.

So when Li Shun'er and others just took office, it was fine. The local officials and scholars from outside were not familiar with each other, and they didn't know much about the situation of their immediate superiors. For a while, no one dared to have any wrong thoughts. However, as time went by, the abilities and tempers of Li Shun'er and others were understood by their subordinates, and the local officials and officials from outside also became familiar with each other. The scholars began to pick up Tuan'er and tried every means to fool Li Shun'er into a "coarse embryo"!

Li Shun himself was very humble from a background and still felt a little inferior in his bones. He always felt that the scholars were naturally superior, and when they were joined by the minor officials, he felt ashamed of himself. He simply wanted to give up the wise and took the initiative to ask for his post and return to the military camp to lead the troops.

"Sir..." Seeing that Zheng Ziming didn't say a word for a while, but just kept typing on the stone table, Li Shun'er raised her head and called in a low voice.

"Don't be busy resigning, I'll teach you a trick!" Zheng Ziming raised his fingers that were red from the table, put them on his lips and blew them slowly. "Do you remember how we trained recruits in the past? What should I do if someone hears the order but refuses to obey and stands in place and whispers to you?"

"The first time I beat the military stick ten times. The second time, I hang it up and pump it." This question is too simple. Li Shun'er answered loudly without thinking. "If you don't change it after repeated instruction, you will either drive him away or report directly to Mingfa to join the army and kill him in public!"

"After going back, divide the things you have to do every day into several pieces and leave them to different people to carry out." Zheng Ziming nodded, and the smile on his face turned colder again. "If anyone pushes and stops three or four, don't care whether what he says makes sense or not, just drag it out to fight military sticks. If someone disobeys the orders on the surface, but they can't do it well by time. No matter what reason he has, he is also serving military sticks. Remember, this is Cangzhou, located on the border between Han and Liao, and you may fight at any time. The governor and the defense envoy are not separated. If you join the army, there is no need to pay attention to any kind of politeness with your subordinates!"

"This--" Li Shunchang knelt on the ground, his upper half stiff and stunned.

He beat the military sticks of those minor officials under his command! He never dared to think about this before. Although he was so angry by these guys every day, he was all knowledgeable and had the blessing of Wenquxing. He was just a big soldier from a servant...

"Fight, if you fight, I will take it for you!" As if guessing what Li Shun'er was thinking, Zheng Ziming bent down and held his arm and pulled it up hard, "Get up, there is gold under a man's knees, don't kneel at any time! Remember, your current position is shot by you and your brothers, not rewarded. Our current land is also sprinkled with the blood of you and your brothers. Those who have not shed blood are willing to work with us, and we welcome you. If you don't want to work, we don't beg them."

"This--" Li Shun'er was not as strong as him and was dragged to her knees. However, her eyes were still full of confusion, as if she was daydreaming.

"Mr. Zheng here is asking them to follow the orders and execute the tasks assigned by him. They will complete them without fail. They are not asking them to help make a name for themselves, nor are they asking them to help make any new tricks!" Zheng Ziming knew that Li Shun'er could not turn around for a while, so he freed up a hand and pressed it on the person's shoulder with a smile. "Shunzi, to put it simply, your subordinates are hiring a group of workers, not a group of old men. If you want to give advice on the country and ask for something else, I don't need it! Shunzi, do you understand what I said?"

"Ming, understand!" As if there was a heat, he kept drilling into Li Shun's heart along his shoulders. He red eyes and nodded vigorously, "I will go back and thrust, and my subordinates will go back and explain to them carefully. My subordinates will not believe it anymore, and the guy can still climb onto the shopkeeper's head and shit!"

"It's right for you to understand this way. Go, don't be scared by those people. For me, being able to do things seriously is the most important thing. Everything else is false!" Zheng Ziming patted Li Shun'er's shoulder again, and wiped away the tears from the person's face.

"I'm going to leave!" Li Shun'er took a step back and bowed with confidence. Then, she turned around and left.

Looking at his straightening back, Zheng Ziming silently cheered himself up in his heart, "What I need is to quickly restore Cangzhou to life, food, taxes and military sources, not reputation in the Shilin! No matter how good the reputation in the Shilin is, it cannot stop the iron hoofs of the Khitans, and well-trained soldiers can do it, as well as solid city walls and wide moats."

Recruiting and training soldiers requires money, building armor and weapons requires money, building reinforcement of city walls requires money, and digging moats also requires money. Although the amount of money obtained by copying powerful families is huge, if enough taxes are not collected, the defense will sooner or later make the yamen lose their lives.

If you want to collect enough taxes, you need to have enough civilians to farm, clear up land, boil salt, and do business. Only when the people save wealthy money and grain, can the government's warehouses be filled. The slaves of powerful families cannot provide these, and the seeds of study who are above the top can not provide these. Although a country wants to prosper, scholars are indispensable. But that is the future, not the present. At present, Zheng Ziming would rather turn the entire Cangzhou into only soldiers and civilians.

Before he knew it, he fell into deep thought again. His realities and understanding, and his plans for the future became clearer. Cangzhou faced the sea in the east and the canal in the west, with more water and few mountains, and a flat terrain. It was born to be a granary and a salt silo. As long as it could prevent the robbery of the Khitans and the excessive exploitation of the city fox and the rats, the land would regain its vitality.

What he needs to do is to find a series of effective methods, train soldiers, and manage this land. Resist strong enemies outside and cut down the city and the community inside. Whether these methods have been used by others in history or not, whether they come from outside the border or Jiangnan.

Now, with the strong support of Chai Rong, he has figured out some tricks to train the new army. But he is still exploring how to manage the place, and he doesn't know whether he can still get the full support of his elder brother Chai Rong.

"You're tired and confused! I deserve it!" Pan Mei walked in quickly with a pile of official documents in her arms. Seeing Zheng Ziming holding a bowl of tea that had already been cold, her eyes were stiff, and she couldn't help but whisper, "Who told you to kill someone so hard? Now you know the consequences! There is no talent at hand, so you can only do everything yourself! Then just like Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu, you're exhausted to death!"

"I didn't kill him at the beginning, and I might die faster!" Zheng Ziming quickly glanced at him, smiled and shook his head, "What kind of talent is that you only know how to make accomplices for tigers? From Li Ke to Liu Zhiyuan, the Khitan Kingdom is getting stronger and stronger, but we are getting weaker and weaker. I'm afraid it's not just because the warriors ruined the country. Since the original path is not working at all, we can only change one way. Maybe..."

"Okay, you are very capable, you are far-sighted!" Pan Mei threw the official documents in her hand at the stone table, with dissatisfaction and resentment. "You have the ability to compare with the famous lords and ministers of several generations! But after you have thought about it, how many people will be angry? They are not just a group of local tyrants!"

"Where is the Tao!" Zheng Ziming smiled slightly, his young face was full of determination. "I will go even if there are thousands of people!"
