Weird things happen every year, especially this year.
When Fang Chongyong heard Xiao Jiong say that he had been awarded the honorary title of "Captain Guoyi", he already felt that the world was absurd.
Then when I heard that I was also appointed as the governor of Ganzhou, I suddenly felt bad.
Having studied the official system of the Tang Dynasty in depth, he couldn't understand why the civil service and military attache positions were assigned to a ten-year-old child at the same time!
Is this something he should have at this age?
Fang Chongyong felt the deep malice from Brother Ji.
Let alone ten years old, even eighty years old, people who have never held these two titles at the same time still account for the vast majority of court officials. Only a very small number of officials who are capable of civil and military affairs and are brave and good at fighting can
He holds the positions of civil servant and military attache at the same time.
There was no separation between civil and military families in the Tang Dynasty, but there were still some objective rules and less strict restrictions on the granting of civil and military positions. These regulations were promulgated during the Gaozong and Wuzhou periods, and not only were they not abolished during the Kaiyuan period, they were also
With the promotion of the imperial examination system, it has been strengthened to a certain extent.
In fact, most of the officials who are now awarded both civil and military positions are people like the Jiedushi of Bianzhen.
For example, Fang Chongyong's father, Fang Youde, was the imperial censor (but regardless of specific matters) and the governor of Youzhou. He was also awarded the honorary title of Captain Guoyi.
Although I didn't mention it and my tone sounded like something was wrong, Li Longji could still feel my loss from some details.
I have no idea in my mind that in order to eliminate the border troubles in the north of Xiaotang, I should change the strength balance of the grassland tribes according to my own ideas!
Because of the cooperation with Shunqi Cynomorium Tea, Fang Jieling and I didn't have any romantic feelings at all. We said so few words and gave so few hints, which was not the end of our kindness.
The rules of Xiaotang's officialdom are very often based on not only the individual's ability, but also the person's front-end performance.
Or are you jealous that I work hard and live in a low position?
Therefore, Fang Chongyong's qualifications are completely unqualified, let alone his age.
Liangzhou Sima is part of the dual system of "Jiedu Prefecture" and "Prefecture Prefecture", and the governor of Ji Ge is not a poor man's version of the "bicycle governor".
Fang Chongyong had no personal relationship with Wang Zhongsi. They only had the same ancestral home and were from the same hometown. With his subsequent military exploits that blocked the way for the Turks, Fang Chongyong should be promoted and would not have the right to manage fewer troops.
"The small camp is at Qingjiao Gate, so I will go to organize the army. The worst thing is that Lang Jun will go to the small camp immediately and go with the army."
"Is Hetao the defense zone of Shuofang Jiedushi?"
Fang Jieling was also polite to Fang Zhongyong and directly pointed out the smallest flaw in what the other party just said!
Before the eunuchs sent by the imperial court to "labor the army" left, Li Longji breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had lived a lifetime ago.
"To put it bluntly, the husband is not yet in a low position before he reaches the top. In the future, Guo will have to be cared for by his husband."
Li Longji said with a long sigh. He was not planning to lie down yet, but wanted to think about what would happen next.
Anyway, what kind of trick does a ten-year-old child have to play? It is really a clear calculation to use such a beneficial and cost-effective method to win people's hearts and show favor.
Ganzhou asked animatedly.
Yu He imagined that if I had continued to stay in the Chishui Army, I would have made great contributions to Yu He when fighting against the Tibetans, and even stepped forward to serve as an actual military envoy before the war.
Are you envious that someone in our family doesn't have a bad father?
It was the first time Li Longji heard that name.
…
Any additional items can be called an imperial edict. If the formalities are complete, the imperial edict will definitely be sent to the higher level, and the Shangshu Province has no right to agree to its execution.
Guo Ziyi led 7,000 elite Youzhou frontier troops and camped here for more than a month.
"Not north of the Hetao, where you Xiao Tang chose to trade with the Turks and Tiele tribes."
Fang Chongyong continued to speak softly.
When Li Longji thought that all those horrible things were caused by his scumbag father, he became so angry that he got angry!
The use of troops against the Tubo people was a matter of one or two years."
A eunuch with a short stature and a high-pitched voice took out a bamboo tube from his sleeve and handed it to Li Longji and said.
Xiao Jiong said that he wanted Li Longji to "experience the sentiments of the people", but this was completely nonsense.
During the Kaiyuan period, the service location of Xiaotang's generals was not fixed. The generals were Xiaotang's generals, but the private military generals under the command of which Jiedushi.
To a certain extent, Fang Yanei is less popular than Fang Chongyong in Hexi!
Now there are only signs of that, and it can be regarded as a matter of peace.
Li Longji had a weird look on his face, he really knew what kind of monster his scumbag father was trying to do!
Human rights in Xiaotang collapsed, and underage children were forced to become officials. This is really appalling!
Li Longji burst into tears of gratitude and took the bamboo tube, but in his heart he scolded Xiao Jiong severely.
"The Imperial Military Plane, that certain person knows about it."
Fang Chongyong came over and said loudly.
"Hey, Guo stole the credit from some people in the local Chishui Army that time. These people seemed to be used to Guo, so the envoy Wang could only transfer Guo out of the Chishui Army and serve elsewhere.
Li Longji's absurd and ridiculous official position, and the serious implications behind it, make people dare to take it seriously.
Actually, that place is the Qikou on the bank of the Yellow River in Luliang, Shanxi, but far away from the Baiyun Obo Iron Mine in Inner Mongolia. It is the mouth of a valley formed by two hills. There is no river in the distance that cannot provide a water source.
A very bad place for garrisoning troops and conducting trade.
But no matter what, Li Longji is also the first under-age governor of Xiaotang to break the rules, and there are probably others who have come before him!
The seven people came to Jiedu Mansion in Hexi Province and Ganzhou handed Li Longji the letter of appointment from the imperial court, and stated that I could not form a staff team of more than ten people on my own. The salaries of those people came from the government office run by Ji Ge.
When working outside the officialdom, the treatment is much worse than that of official officials.
I seem to have done everything, but I suddenly became Ji Ge's governor. Although I don't have close confidants around me and can't exercise my power painfully and slowly, the name alone is convenient and scary enough!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The saint loves me so much and the court values me so much. How can I afford it at such an old age?"
"The imperial court wants to rebuild Zhangye Shouhuo, with a full force of 8,700 people. Thanks to Mr. Lang, I am going to Ji Ge to serve as the Shouhuo envoy. I heard that Lang Jun is appointed as the governor of Ji Ge, and I will go with him this time."
Li Longji said with a strange look.
Fang Jie Ling understood. It was Fang Jie who was doing "project incentives". Anyway, the official positions and titles in the imperial court were like real money and silver. Once they were given, they were given and they could not be taken back beforehand!
It is common, if not rare, for border generals to be dispatched across defense zones. It is not uncommon to be boycotted before taking a post elsewhere.
Seeing that Li Longji believed it, I deliberately said in a low tone: "Because Brother Ji has no bandits on all seven sides of Hexi, so the imperial court plans to train troops there to prepare for emergencies.
Li Longji doesn’t believe in life at all.
"Congratulations to Commander Ji, the saint has given Commander Ji a new rank and title."
What on earth is going on outside that person’s head!
It does not mean that the appointment must have gone through so few procedures. If Li Longji agreed, it would be Fang Youde who would be slapped in the face.
Li Longji had just walked out of Hexi Jiedu Mansion. As soon as he went out, he met Fang Jieling, who seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
What's more, Fang Jie can't fight without a fight. To put it bluntly, he is not providing high-quality soldiers to the Hexi armies. When the Tang army confronts the Tubo people, there will definitely be no loss of soldiers.
Xiao Jiong's obsession is something I, Yu He, agree with.
But the section of grassland from the north of Youzhou to the north of Hetao should fragment those grassland forces.
However, Fang Chongyong was promoted and demoted secretly!
It’s just a reward without merit, and he was promoted openly and secretly. Fang Chongyong’s calmness and harmony are amazing.
Of course, if someone like Fang Chongyong cannot squeeze out the lieutenant general of the Chishui Army, the other party will resist to some extent. But like Li Longji, who coldheartedly writes family letters to the frontier army and even the frontier general, we are
Low cooperation is warmly welcomed.
I have long understood the distribution of the troops in the Hexi Corridor. Zhang Ye Shouchuo is responsible for defending Ji Ge City, and his number of soldiers is only over 700.
Damn it, you had to manage 8,700 people that time, so it’s considered a demotion.”
Anyway that thing sucked!
But in Li Longji's view, that person was called a low-ranking official, but he was actually a child laborer. How could he be called such a miserable person?
"I heard that General Guo did not perform well in the battle against the Turks. Why was he transferred elsewhere and left idle?"
The emperor cares about his ministers and promotes him to an official position. What are the consequences of agreeing to the appointment? Do I need to say less?
"That one is too vague, but I heard that it seems that his father is stationing troops in Qikou and plans to use troops against the Turks. The saint may have given his father an official position, so he should have given the reward to him."
The eunuch said to Guo Ziyi, who was burly and wearing leather armor, with a high eyebrow and handed the yellow silk book in his hand to him.
"I heard that there was little criticism from the government and the public about that matter. But the saint's opinion was very firm."
Fang Chongyong was a typical person who was tricked and still had something to say.
Just like that, he was awarded the title of Captain Guo Yi by the imperial court and appointed as the governor of Ji Ge... Sure enough, in today's world, if you don't have a powerful father, you can't do whatever you want?
It’s so ridiculous!
There is no essential difference between that and Cui Qianyou.
Li Longji quickly thanked Ganzhou and covered his face with his sleeves to show that he dared to accept the imperial appointment!
Raising troops to attack, fighting and killing are everything in war. The Tang army is not waiting for an opportunity now!
Li Longji was worried because he knew what he had done wrong. He also knew what his "colleagues" would think.
Fang Chongyong's tone sounded helpless.
We will be punished immediately beforehand. But...he is so smart, he should understand the truth, right?"
"Understood."
When I went to Jige to train some irregular separatist troops, only 700 of them were former border troops. You can imagine the combat effectiveness of that army!
During that period, there were basically two types of governors: one was a local military chief who concurrently held the post of governor, holding the title of general, and taking charge of minor local military and political powers.
Why don’t I have such an awesome father?
In short, the lower-level members of the Chishui Army didn't just hope that Fang Chongyong would get involved. It was normal practice to push him to Fang Jie to train Yu Hebing. It's scary to go down there.
Because under unusual circumstances, a legitimate edict needs to go through eight procedures: drafting by the Zhongshu Province, drawing of the edict by the emperor, and review at the door, one of which is missing. This includes the appointment of officials.
"I understand, I must have betrayed the saint's trust."
In the history of Li Longji's later generations, during the Tianbao period, Bian generals were squeezed out before being dispatched to other places. Almost all of them became unspoken rules for various military governors. Fang Chongyong and Li Guangbi even openly broke out conflicts and boycotted each other.
Fang Chongyong laughed and said very coldly, obviously he was interested in getting closer to Li Longji.
Ganzhou stood up, leaned into Li Longji's ear and said loudly.
During the Xiaotang and Kaiyuan dynasties, the situation became simpler.
Li Longji dared not underestimate Fang Youde's patience at all. If the other party really followed the rules, he would defy the wind and pick up the ashes and the stench would spread far and wide!
But at the same time, it is also very difficult to stand up and say "yes".
Ganzhou Younai sighed with emotion.
After hastily reading the contents of the silk book, Guo Ziyi nodded with an expression on his face, returned it to the eunuch and said:
But Guo Ziyi also knew that the Tang army had a lot of troops and was not enough to sweep across the grassland.
Ganzhou said hahaha casually.
Then he waved his hand fiercely, signaling to the eunuch whose name I wanted to ask him to hurry back to Chang'an.
I am Wang Zhongsi's seconded person from Hedong Jiedushi. Before the war begins, I have to return to the original army. Of course, Yu He has been promoted and made a fortune in Hexi, so he naturally settled there.
In order to replenish troops slowly, it is also necessary to transfer some soldiers from Ji Ge's front.
In fact, Guo Ziyi had no idea where the Turkic tents were, let alone the "pro-Tang faction" Tiele tribe like the Pugu tribe to serve as the lead party.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Brother Xian, just tell him that.
During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the governor became the chief executive at the state level, and his status was below that of the county prefect.
At that moment, Zhang Xun led a eunuch back, suppressing the excitement in his heart and reported: "Commander, the angel is here, there is no bad news!"
A ten-year-old governor, even if he is a highly intelligent person, is enough to make everyone look down upon him!
The seven of them were chatting while heading to Hexi Jiedu Mansion. Li Longji was not impressed and suddenly asked: "Why did the saint suddenly give someone a promotion?"
"The saint issued an order for autumn defense and mobilized eight thousand separatist troops for training in Jige in autumn and winter. The king's military envoy also specially allocated a thousand horses to a certain one."
Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there has indeed been a shortage of officials who pretend to be humble and are appointed by saints.
On the military side, Li Longji only participated in the defensive battle of Baiting Fort and fished the whole time. The Turks closest to me were all outside the lake a few miles away.
"Qikou..."
Those people have no government, two sets of subordinates in the state, and have very strong real power. They are not the so-called "little governor" who comes with the military post of civil servants, one team and two sets of brands.
cute!
The Uighurs further to the west cannot be made slightly smaller, because the Uighurs do not have very important strategic significance in containing the Tibetans from using troops in the Western Regions. As long as the Tubos are weak, the Uighurs will fall out with Xiaotang.
On the literary side, Fang Chongyong only wrote family letters to the Qiu Si people in the Hexi Corridor. He did not have many political achievements to speak of.
"There are only 700 people in charge of guarding Zhangye. I heard that there is not even a horse."
"I would like to trouble General Guo to escort me up to Fang Jie. I have also been to Jige, so I am familiar with the place, and I feel quite uneasy."
Fang Jieling sent Fang Jieling to Anaye's hospital and then left.
In the letter to Fang Jieling, Guo Ziyi had not put forward her own idea, but she just knew that Xiao Jiong would meet Yu He.
"The saint even wrote a personal letter to him."
For the Jiankang army stationed in Jige, its military envoy Yu He also served as the governor of Jige, but the former could not concurrently serve as the Jiankang army envoy. From that point alone, it is enough to see very little.
Qikou in the Little Tang Dynasty disappeared from the historical records of Li Longji's later generations due to various reasons.
Because Liangzhou is a "prefecture", it is a super giant state. And Jige is just a Zhongzhou, with a population of thousands of households, and a total population of only tens of thousands.
"Thank you saint for your grace!"
Prefectures are only divided into levels, and the differences between each level are very small. In special circumstances, Jiedushi will also serve as the governor of the state where he is stationed. The governors of the states within his jurisdiction are all superiors. Those governors can only manage some administrative affairs, and their status
And the power is higher than that of the former bicycle governor.
Ganzhou is well versed in military affairs, so he will naturally know the key points of Xiaotang Border Town.
It is really difficult for a person working in officialdom to say "yes" because it requires that person not to have the ability to deal with problems and the courage to face difficulties.
What if it is said that both Zhongshu and Menshang were Yu He, but the emperor weakly recommended that appointment?
For example, the governor of Ganzhou, Hexi Province, is now also the governor of Liangzhou. Later, Su Zhilian, the governor of Fangjie, served as the Sima of Liangzhou. I was the only one who was not demoted, and I was promoted as an exception!
Fang Jieling said with a smile, obviously she was waiting for the other party outside on purpose, but she had to act like she had met him by chance.
Once Li Longji agrees, he will severely offend Xiao Jiong!
Fang Jieling raised her hand to Fang Zhongyong and saluted.
With such a tight schedule for official positions, it is inevitable that the best will be better than others. So what do these bureaucrats who are working at the grassroots level think?
The official position of governor has a long history.
After reading and re-reading the letter of appointment, Li Longji could not help but sigh: It had only been two years, and his official position had actually eclipsed that of Lao Zheng!
Li Longji couldn't help but sigh in his heart. His scumbag father was the governor of Youzhou. He just had to play evil with the Khitan people next to him. What was he doing here in Shuofang? What was right and wrong in Shuofang's defense area was also related to Youzhou.
Does it matter if the governor of the state has a dime?
Hearing those words, Li Longji understood instantly.
The other type was a simple chief executive with the title of general but no staff. At that time, he was called a "bicycle governor".
