Dominate Marvel

"The task of depriving privileges, punishing crimes, suppressing public order, and amending laws is not an unimportant one. The duty of a law envoy is of paramount importance. Killing the fat pig is the next best thing. Fulfilling my will is the first priority."

Ying Yi pointed out the core point: "Although money, food and materials are the foundation, since I am self-reliant, I must have a new look in governance. After the scholar comes down, first build the framework of the Imperial Law Department. If there are not enough talents, stick to it first, and wait for the father-in-law. When officials are recruited, they will be rationed."

The scholar understood it and said: "Don't worry, my lord, I will save you."

The so-called carrying out Ying Yi's will is indeed the most important thing. If Ying Yi becomes independent, Kaifeng and Henan will no longer belong to the Ming Dynasty. People must understand that Ying Yi was not Emperor Chongzhen, and Kaifeng was not owned by the Ming Dynasty.

We must let the people know that they are no longer the people of Ming Dynasty, but the people of Ying Yi.

This is the starting point. All actions must be centered around this starting point.

This point is not only in the Imperial Law Department, but also in the Zhoumu Yamen. Zheng Yunzhi on the side nodded slightly, twirling his beard in deep agreement.

Then I heard Ying Yi say: "The same is true for my father-in-law. Whether it is counting the population, counting the land, distributing the land, or farming, each of them is not a small matter, but a top priority. The State Mu Yamen and the Imperial Law Department work together to take Kaifeng as the The central government must first stabilize order in Henan."

When there is great chaos, there must be governance, and there must be governance after chaos. Stable order is the fundamental meaning of the existence of state power.

So Zheng Yunzhi was appointed as the prefect of Henan, Sun Xiucai and Sun Wen were appointed as the imperial envoys, and the administrative framework of the Prefectural Mu Yamen and the Imperial Fa Si Yamen was established. Ying Yi completed the first step after becoming independent.

Afterwards, Ying Yi entrusted all the government affairs to the two of them. Ying Yi himself turned his attention to the army.

When he first entered Kaifeng, Ying Yi did not make much action on the army and only added an additional force. Now that Zheng Yunzhi and Sun Xiucai have arrived, there is no need to worry about any government affairs. Ying Yi will make certain changes to the army.

At present, Ying Yi's subordinates have a total of 16,500 soldiers from seven divisions. The number of troops is not large, but except for Li Huan's additional troops, the rest can be considered elite troops.

But looking at the world, this amount of troops is far from enough.

Not only is the strength of the army insufficient, but the structure of the army is also flawed.

There are no organized auxiliary troops!

In previous battles, most of the transportation of grain and fodder and the replenishment and replacement of ordnance were done by the Yuzhou side's slave labor camp. Because the combat scope is not large and the distance is not far, there is no urgent need for regular auxiliary troops.

But from now on, the situation will be very different. The whole of Henan is not that small, and if all other prefectures are to be brought under its control, the army must be deployed. Zheng Yunzhi and Sun Xiucai now have to focus on governance, and the strategy of separating military and political affairs has been planned by Ying Yi for a long time. Therefore, some formalized adjustments to the army must be made.

Currently, among the seven troops under Ying Yi's command, only Zhou Li's troops are still in Nanyang. The other six departments are all in Kaifeng. These seven regular soldiers will not be withdrawn except at night, and Ying Yi does not intend to move.

If you don't stop at night, you have to move, and Ying Yi also has a plan.

In the past, it was small in size and only one part of Ye Bu Shui. But since the ambition is for the world, in the future the armies under his command must be southeast, northwest, and each army must have Ye Bu Suan. It is impossible to put all Ye Bu Suan into one department.

Therefore, if you don’t collect them at night, you have to spread them out.

In Ying Yi's plan, the unit of the general department will be expanded by another 500 people, bringing the number of people in the first department to 3,000. The newly added five hundred means that the business will not be closed at night.

In other words, in addition to infantry, cavalry, artillery, and archers, one more unit will be added to the army.

Of course, these arms will also change later.

In the early days, because there were not enough muskets, a few artillerymen who also held muskets were often assigned to the artillery unit. As the two valleys of Fangcheng Mountain gradually get on the right track, once the production of fire guns can meet the needs of the army, the archers will gradually be withdrawn and all will be converted into fire guns. Artillery is pure artillery, without the inclusion of firecrackers.

In addition to re-dividing the military services to a certain extent, building auxiliary troops is a top priority. Ying Yi believes that auxiliary soldiers must shoulder many and heavy responsibilities. The regular soldiers are only responsible for fighting, while the auxiliary soldiers, in addition to transporting food, grass and ordnance to the regular soldiers, are also responsible for repairing ordnance and even researching ordnance.

Even the construction of military buildings must be classified into one category.

The so-called auxiliary soldiers should be classified into the category of engineering soldiers, but they are not completely overlapped.

Ying Yi planned to classify the two valleys of Fangcheng Mountain into the military category. At least most of the functions of the two valleys of Fangcheng Mountain should serve the army.

This is one of them.

Second, in addition to the regular soldiers, build an auxiliary army. The number of people does not need to be too large, but it is temporarily set at two groups and six thousand people. Ying Yi planned to appoint Lian Biao as the head of the auxiliary army. Lian Biao has been working hard since he followed Ying Yi. He has always been responsible for protecting the two valleys of Fangcheng Mountain and taking charge of the slave labor camp. Now that everyone who became Ying Yi's subordinates together with Lian Biao has their own future, there is no reason why Ying Yi will forget Lian Biao.

In addition, the slave labor camps will also be placed under the auxiliary army.

In addition, Ying Yi also needs to establish a military logistics department. The responsibility of the Logistics Department lies in the mobilization and distribution of military supplies and auxiliary troops, as well as coordination with government departments.

Ying Yi must hold the power of mobilizing troops firmly for the time being.

As for the Logistics Department, Ying Yi thought about it a lot and decided to appoint Uncle Huai, that is, Zheng Yunzhi is the old servant Zheng Huai to temporarily replace him.

There is really no one available, and there is nothing Ying Yi can do. Furthermore, Uncle Huai has been following Zheng Yunzhi for a long time and has rich experience. And know the root of it. Although he is old, this is not a problem. Adding some true spirit can completely make him energetic.

The two valleys of Fangcheng Mountain, as important military areas, were still in charge of Jiang Xi, who had been managing them in the mountains.

There was Lian Biao in the auxiliary army and slave labor camp, Uncle Huai in the logistics department for coordination and dispatch, and Jiang Xi in Fangcheng Mountain. In this way, the logistics framework was established.

In addition, Ying Yi plans to reorganize and expand the army to a certain extent. He plans to expand the army from six to eight, excluding personal guards, before the end of the year, one to 3,000, and one to 24,000. , plus the personal guards, there are 27,000 people.

At the same time, above the department level, another level of captain is added.

The four divisions serve as one captain.

In this way, the eight divisions are composed of two captains, and one captain oversees four divisions with 12,000 people.

Zhu Bingkun and Zheng Wu will be the captains, each commanding four troops. As for the vacancies and newly added generals, there is no need to think too much, just promote from the army - taking into account the cultural level, those with high military merit will be given priority.

In order to establish a military title system in addition to the officer's official position, Ying Yi did not bother to think too much and directly took out the twenty-level military merit title from the Qin and Han Dynasties with slight changes.

These plans are very clear in Ying Yi's mind. When Sun Xiucai and Zheng Yunzhi were carving out Kaifeng, Ying Yi had already started to implement it in an orderly manner.
