Chapter 254 Military and Political

Back in his house, Yang Chengzhi was already waiting. The thick documents and books were divided into several piles according to different types of affairs, and they were all placed on the table.

According to the court system, Jiedushi was assisted by two judges.A member of the Jiedu magistrate, the seventh rank, is in charge of the affairs of Ji Gangjie Town, the matter of judging soldiers and horses, and concurrently judges soldiers, criminals, and industrial cases; a member of the observation judge, is the seventh rank.In charge of Ji Gang to observe public affairs, to judge officials, households, and ritual cases, to check and arrange books.

Guo Ning had previously appointed Chu Cai as Jiedu Judge, and Du Shisheng as Observer Judge.But Du Shisheng's official status is actually for the convenience of his activities in Zhongdu, and to be able to control related affairs in Zhigu Village.Therefore, in fact, all military and political affairs are in the hands of Chu Cai.

At this time, every document placed in front of Guo Ning was signed and reviewed by Yisa Chucai. If it is scribbled, the master Jiedushi will not recognize it.

Guo Ning flipped through the documents, glanced at them first, then read them carefully, occasionally asking a few questions.After Yang Chengzhi had confirmed it, he took out the square Yangwen Jiedushi bronze seal from his waist, dipped it in ink and tapped it fiercely.

According to Yila Chucai, in recent years, the imperial court has held ten sheep and nine shepherds, and their work has become more and more unbearable. Even the official seals are not as good as they were in the past.The official seal of Guo Ning, the majestic Jiedu envoy, has several blisters next to the inscription "Nei Shao Fu" on the back of the seal, but it has been polished to a smooth surface, which makes sense at first glance.

I knocked over a dozen copies.Guo Ning paused, took out a few documents and asked again.At first Yang Chengzhi answered fluently, occasionally hesitating for a while, with sweat on his forehead, he said: "I have to ask Brother Jin Qing."

Guo Ning didn't mind either: "Jin Qing is busy, don't bother."

He put the documents aside, and asked Jue Cong to go directly to the corresponding person in charge, and read the others first.

When the person in charge came, Guo Ning made a simple inquiry and compared it with the documents, and then he made a decision.

In less than half an hour, dozens of documents were all processed, and most of them were processed according to the intention of Yicai Chucai, but Guo Ning didn't let go completely.

Although he is not very familiar with the allusions of those dictionaries or the specialized vocabulary in administration, so he often asks Yang Chengzhi for advice.But he is an experienced old soldier. Even in his current position, he has been in and out of the army, maintaining a close relationship with the soldiers, and has never been isolated.Therefore, he is very smart about the details of military affairs, and even all kinds of affairs derived from military affairs, and he knows nothing about them.

Some of the places were so out of the way that Chucai and Yang Chengzhi didn't notice them. He circled them on the spot and wrote his own opinions.

On that day, Yang Chengzhi joined Guo Ning's command along with Chucai.Because he is a relative of Yila Chucai's mother's family, his ancestors had the famous Hanlin Yang Boren, and his family also passed the imperial examination for Ci Fu Jinshi, so he treats ordinary warriors with a vague arrogance, and even Guo Ning, occasionally a little arrogant Fierce.

As a result, after several documents exchanged, Yang Chengzhi realized that although Guo Ning didn't study, he seemed to have some talents from heaven, so he became very respectful.

Guo Ning is also very kind to this right-hand man who displaced Chucai.Seeing that Yang Chengzhi was about to go out with the booklet in his hands, Guo Ning thought about it, and beckoned, "It's lunch time, Chengzhi might as well come with me, and use it briefly."

In a short while, Jue Cong brought the lunch.

Generally speaking, Guo Ning is in the barracks, eating lunch with the soldiers. It is rare to eat at home, and there is nothing particularly good or delicate. It is nothing more than scones and pickles, and there is a large plate of roast lamb. It was not baked well, the cook was very careless, there were scorched spots, and there were raw and bloody spots.

Yang Chengzhi would not treat himself so slowly on weekdays, but he is a smart man, he ate three scones with relish, and then shared the mutton with Guo Ning, and finally patted his stomach contentedly: "Thank you, handsome Jie!"

Guo Ning raised his teacup and signaled to him: "Chengzhi was detained in Yidu before, and it was not easy. Drinking alcohol is not suitable in the army. I will offer you a cup of tea instead of wine."

Yang Chengzhi got up in panic, and clinked glasses with Guo Ning: "Jie Shuai, these documents cannot be delayed, I will go now."

"Thank you for your hard work, please go ahead."

After sending Yang Chengzhi away, Guo Ning was a little tired, but continued to look at various documents.

Those who remained with him were all important but not urgent documents.

For example, in Dengzhou, they promised to dispatch civilians to serve in Laizhou, but there were many hardships in the places listed here and there.

Another example is the people of Jing’an in Ye County. On the one hand, they built additional facilities in the city to prepare for the relocation of the Jiedu envoy’s mansion; , The land that can be cultivated has been set aside. Taking advantage of the winter drought, the water diversion project from Hantong Mountain to Ye County has also started.The money, food and fodder that was stationed in Ye County and robbed from the local tyrants went out like water. Jing'anmin wrote a long article, which was actually asking for money.

There is also Liu Cheng's report on the damaged military and civilian records and completed documents, Hao Duan at Sanshan Port accepted a batch of documents from smugglers from the Southern Dynasties, monk Luo proposed to take a boat to rob the Qingchi granary in Cangzhou, Li Ting seconded and said The idea of ​​the robbery was the document that came to mind first, and asked for the pre-allocation of food, fodder and military funds...

When Guo Ning was in Wushabao, even though he had a hundred dreams, he never dreamed that he would have a day when he would sit on a chair, hold a pen, and be able to decide the fate of many people.

This feeling is completely different from the joy of bloodshed with a knife.Guo Ning once thought that if he touched these things, he would fall asleep.But in fact, when he looked at the documents, he was inevitably troubled, but he also had a little bit of happiness, which slowly grew from it.

The trouble is, the boring things about the rules and documents are not in his temperament after all.There is no reliable copywriter around him, and those who can help him write or consult, have to do everything by themselves.Sometimes he asks Lu Han for help, but Lu Han may not be free.

And the joy is that these documents after all represent that his little power is taking root and growing.

Guo Ning felt a strong sense of crisis in Wushabao, Feijun River, and even Zhigu Village. He instinctively knew that those places were too close to the Mongols and too dangerous.

But here in Laizhou, it is very good.The Mongolian army's iron cavalry has reached this point, which is about a limit.Here, Guo Ning's means can be deployed and his strength can be exerted.And the many weird ideas and plans in his heart can also be slowly implemented, and then transformed into force, transformed into something that can truly overwhelm the Mongols and strangle the terrifying tide.

Watching and watching, he began to concentrate, and the time passed quickly.

Ni Yi coughed twice outside the door, then knocked on the door: "Jie Shuai, Jie Shuai!"

"Ok?"

"The soldiers and horses of the third and fourth governors have assembled outside the fort."

Guo Ning responded, and was gathering several documents that had been opened, when hurried footsteps sounded from the outside, and Chu Cai and Xu Ting stepped forward and stepped in.Yicha Chucai had a strange look on his face, while Xu Yu was sweating profusely and panting heavily.

Guo Ning cheered up immediately: "What happened?"
