Chapter 996 The Birth of the Military Aircraft Department
Yuzhu is not Taishi Dong, how can there be any reason to appoint people on a meritocratic basis?
When a person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, this is the proper meaning of the title!
After taking control of the actual power of the government, Yuzhu immediately made the decision to reward meritorious officials.
Niutai, the commander of Jinwei Town, was granted the title of third-class baron and concurrently served as the commander of the infantry.
Lu Wu, the commander of the first town, was granted the title of third-class earl and served as the governor of Zhili. He was stationed in Tianjin and controlled the capital.
Ma Qingfang, the leader of the second town, was awarded the title of first-class baron and appointed as the admiral of Shandong.
He Wenda, the leader of the third town, was granted the title of first-class baron and appointed as the admiral of Henan.
Li Run, the commander of the fourth town, was granted the title of third-class baron and appointed as the admiral of Shanxi.
Liu Zheng, the commander of the fifth town, was granted the title of third-class baron and appointed as the admiral of Jiangsu.
Wu Lin, the leader of the sixth town, was granted the title of third-class baron and appointed as the admiral of Zhejiang.
In addition to being promoted based on merit, the officers and soldiers of the New Army were each given double pay for the month as a reward.
For a time, all the officers and soldiers of the new army were looking forward to fighting.
Only by fighting can you be promoted and make a fortune, be granted a wife's title, and have more money to take away!
After rewarding the generals, Yuzhu turned around and began to settle the civil servants.
Zhou Quan, the number one confidant in the Jade Party clique, has been recommended as governor of Zhili.
Sun Chengyun was appointed as the Minister of Household Affairs, and Wu Sidao was appointed as the Governor of Henan.
It is worth mentioning that in the same year that Yuzhu became a Jinshi, his long-time friend and disciple Se Leng'e was appointed General of Shengjing.
Another Jinshi of the same year and good friend of Yuzhu, Akdun, Agui's Ama, was appointed as the general of Jilin.
Liu Kan, the first civil servant to join Yuzhu's sect, was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
As for Zhao Donghe, an old acquaintance, even though he was a villain, Yuzhu did not treat him badly and arranged for him to serve as the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture.
Anyway, as long as it was in the early years, the old people who followed Yuzhu were promoted and took power!
This is the rich return of venture capital!
Lu Buwei invested in a foreigner, and as a result, he became the prime minister of Qin.
Liu Bang's group of heroes were almost all from Peixian County.
Most of Zhu Chongba's group of heroes were fellow Huaisi fellows.
If there is investment, there will be returns. This is the right truth.
Everyone sits in a row and divides the fruits together. This is right!
Yuzhu is also not stingy in his rewards. He truly embraces all rivers and embraces everything. Tolerance means greatness.
In addition, Qian Mingding, Yuzhu's fellow detective, nominally took refuge in Yuzhu, but secretly flirted with others.
There is no way to promote him.
How can Yuzhu, a half-hearted person, have no distinction between merit and demerit?
Xie Sheng, who was ranked second in the same class as Yuzhu, was different. He had always stood firm. He was a member of Yuzhu from beginning to end.
Therefore, after Yuzhu came to power, Xie Sheng was exceptionally promoted to the position of Minister of Rites.
For a time, within the Jade Party small group, everyone was celebrating, everyone was smiling, and everyone formed a huge community of interests.
Zhang Tingyu has never been promoted, but he works diligently as always and settles all kinds of complicated things for Yuzhu without complaint.
Ma Qi has been a little restless recently. Logically speaking, he should also receive a certain reward.
However, there is not even a hint of the reward.
Ma Qi's heart felt as if a cat had scratched him, and he couldn't sit still.
On this day, Yuzhu called Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu into the house together.
The three masters and servants drank wine together and discussed the government affairs.
"Hengchen, you read a lot, do you know why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty set up a ministerial desk?" Yuzhu asked Zhang Tingyu abruptly while playing with the wine cup in his hand.
Zhang Tingyu, who is well-read in poetry and literature, naturally knows very well that since Emperor Wu in the Western Han Dynasty, important ministers who did not have the title of minister did not hold real power, and they were just in vain.
"Back to the king, I believe that the Secretariat ensured the smooth flow of Emperor Wu's decrees." Zhang Tingyu did not dare to say directly that the Secretariat was to strengthen the imperial power.
Yuzhu nodded and turned to look at Ma Qi, who had been eating vegetables.
Ma Qi is a rare talent among Manchus who is proficient in practical matters. Although he has not read as much as Zhang Tingyu, he still understands the general principles.
Hey, don’t you just want to further centralize power?
"Back to the king, I think that the corpses of all the ministers in the cabinet are of no use. There are many deviant people among the ministers who assist the king, so it is better to withdraw them all." Ma Qi's words were quite high-level.
Ma Qi opened his mouth and rejected all the cabinet and ministers.
At the beginning, when the prince was deposed, Ma Qi was in the wrong team and was dismissed by the old emperor and returned home.
Later, the old emperor re-enabled Ma Qi, which showed that Ma Qi was very capable and courageous in his duties. Talents are rare.
Zhang Tingyu knew in his heart that Yuzhu invited him and Ma Qi to drink, not just for chatting, but to further strengthen his power.
After Dorgon fell and died, his party was defeated so quickly. The root problem was that Dorgon was too careless and did not establish a new hegemony.
Now, Yuzhu has just ascended the throne of the auxiliary king, so it is not appropriate to make drastic changes to the governance structure of the imperial court, lest it cause a huge turmoil.
You must know that in a society where imperial power is based on bricks and mortar, whether it is the expansion of ministerial power or the contraction of imperial power, it will have wide implications and ripples.
Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu expressed their support for Yuzhu's further centralization of power.
Well, only if you know the current affairs, you will be a hero.
Oh, Yuzhu wants to centralize power, but Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu advocate decentralization, so how can they continue to cooperate?
"Although the rebels in the northwest are in peace, there is trouble in the south of the Yangtze River, with constant military disasters and disasters thousands of miles away." When Yuzhu said this, Zhang Tingyu suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
After putting down the rebellion of Lao Si, Yuzhu didn't seem to care much about Lao Si and Nian Gengyao's departure from Shaanxi and Gansu?
Zhang Tingyu thought carefully and roughly understood Yuzhu's thoughts.
Zhuge Liang's repeated Northern Expeditions all ended in failure. Not only did they have no results, but they also greatly consumed Ji Han's national power.
Using the land of one state to fight against Cao Wei, who controlled several states, there were conquests almost every year, which can be described in four words: aggressive military force.
However, it was precisely because of Zhuge's Northern Expedition that Sima Zhongda took the opportunity to seize military power in the northwest.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The legendary story of the Empty City Strategy has been circulated among the people. People who have no experience must have heard it as a story.
However, Zhang Tingyu had a clear conscience, and the Empty City Plan seemed to praise Zhuge Liang for his many clever plans.
Breaking down the essence, you will be surprised to find that Sima Zhongda did not lead his troops into the empty city and killed Zhuge Liang just to support the self-respect of the invaders.
"Your Majesty, I believe that the military affairs in the south of the Yangtze River are very urgent, and the whole country must concentrate its efforts to deal with it with all its heart." As soon as Zhang Tingyu said this, Yuzhu immediately smiled.
What a shrewd and clear Zhang Tingyu!
Since the two bachelors had guessed Yuzhu's desire to centralize power and cooperated quite tacitly, Yuzhu had solved the mystery.
"I want to set up a new military aircraft department and place it under the auxiliary government of the Prince. What do you think?" Yuzhu picked up the wine glass and looked at Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu with a smile.
Ma Qi heard clearly that a new organization was established and placed under the jade pillar. Isn't this Cao Ah Man's domineering mansion?
Zhang Tingyu had already expected that Yuzhu would never make Dorgon's mistake again.
Dorgon was too arrogant. He only served as regent, but did not form a full set of confidants for the small court.
After Cao Cao's death, the power of Cao Wei was successfully handed over to Cao Pi, and the Bafu, which was independent from the imperial court, played a vital role.
In addition, the clan generals of the Cao family and the Xiahou family controlled most of the military power, which was another core factor.
Cao Pi's succession was not smooth sailing.
If Cao Zhi hadn't been hesitant because he wanted to win but was afraid of losing, Huang Xuer and Cao Zhang might have caused big trouble.
"Your Majesty, I think this is very appropriate!"
Yuzhu had already revealed his cards, so Zhang Tingyu quickly stood up and agreed.
Ma Qi was over sixty years old, and he was by no means a fool. He immediately stood up and said loudly: "The king is wise."
Hey, in the current era of strict etiquette, only the emperor can use the word sage.
Yuzhu smiled slightly. Even though Ma Qi was a serious Manchu banner man, he had no interest in protecting the Aisin Gioro family.
As the saying goes, if you sow melons, you will reap melons; if you sow beans, you will reap beans!
Back then, after deposing the crown prince, the old emperor thought he had the affairs of the court under his control. He not only wanted to be his concubine, but also wanted to build an archway and deliberately let the ministers publicly recommend the candidate for the new crown prince.
Ma Qi was a member of the famous Ba Ye Party, and the old emperor specifically ordered that Ma Qi not be allowed to participate in the voting.
As a result, everyone unanimously recommended Lao Ba as the crown prince, and the old emperor was severely slapped in the face. In anger, he backhandedly broke his previous promise of nominating the prince.
Everyone was deceived by the old emperor and mistakenly thought that he really wanted everyone to nominate the new prince.
Unexpectedly, the old emperor deliberately acted like a hooligan and turned against him faster than turning the page in a book, but everyone could only stare.
During the liquidation, Ma Qi was shot and was sent home to study behind closed doors.
In fact, Ma Qi was sincerely wronged. He did not engage in collusion. It was just that when someone asked him who should be recommended, he just made an eight sign.
The seeds of hatred were sown!
The Military Aircraft Department is located under the Auxiliary Palace. This is obviously a powerful measure for Yuzhu to further concentrate his power.
Although Lao Si did not abolish the cabinet, the establishment of the Military Aircraft Department directly marginalized the cabinet and became nothing more than a sealing tool.
However, during the Xinyou coup, the clever Guiziliu bypassed the military aircraft department again, and the Queen Mother of the two palaces directly issued an order to the cabinet, and captured and killed all the military ministers headed by Sushun.
Since both Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu were very knowledgeable, Yuzhu didn't bother to hide it and said directly: "According to my own opinion, both of you are the pillars of the country and should be ministers of military aircraft."
Bang, Ma Qi's heart, which had been hanging, finally fell back to its original position.
He is over sixty years old, but it is not easy to gain Yuzhu's trust!
It is normal for people to go out and have tea in the temple!
If Ma Qi loses his position as prime minister, the entire Fucha family will be affected.
After the dust settled on his personal future, Zhang Tingyu couldn't help but feel grateful to Yuzhu.
Zhang Tingyu was originally a member of the fourth master's party, but was forced to join Yuzhu's sect in the middle, but was given such a high position.
The kindness of knowledge and encounter should be repaid with a spring of water!
