Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Regarding Li Ke's statement, Fang Xuanling thought about it, and it was very appropriate, so he did not object.

"How do you love me?" Li Shimin sent his own inquiry on the above, expressing his sense of existence, "Especially the generals?"

Li Jing and the others didn't answer right away, but directly started discussing in a low voice. In fact, all the officials in the Tang Dynasty could discuss in a low voice, and the current court is not the same as that of later generations.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, I have a question." Li Jing stood up and said.

"Duke Dai, please speak." Li Ke said.

"There is no problem in reorganizing the army into ministers, etc., but if it is a special period and urgent recruitment of soldiers is needed, wouldn't the training of the soldiers be insufficient?" Li Jing asked a key question.

Because of the current military system of the Tang Dynasty, theoretically all men of the right age in the Tang Dynasty have received military training. Although this time is not long, they have to be trained every year or even every few years. If a large number of soldiers are needed for foreign operations, the soldiers drawn out can fight with a little adaptive training.

"This is simple. The compulsory military service system can be combined with the reserve service system. The so-called reserve service means that the soldiers who are discharged after the completion of the three-year compulsory military service system are considered as reserve troops. At present, all the soldiers in the Tang Dynasty have received military training. At this time If we start the reform, after about a few batches of soldiers, we will have a large number of available reserves."

"It can even be combined with the militia system. The militia is a civilian military organization formed by reserve soldiers who conduct military training for men of the right age in various villages during the slack period. It can increase the resistance of the people in various aspects such as disasters and bandits."

Li Ke explained to Li Jing.

"I have no more questions." Li Jing said very simply, and there is no need to ask the rest of the details.

"Your Highness, since the army has been restructured, I have watched the plan given to me by Your Highness these days. I think it is better to carry out the six reforms at the same time. There must be many aspects of the reform of the army and the follow-up with the army." Fang Xuanling spoke directly.

"I have no objection." Li Ke thought for a while, and it's okay. The six parts will be split up sooner or later, and they can be restructured together. If there is any labor pain, it can be done at once.

Today's court meeting was destined to be very slow, and the whole court meeting lasted until after 11:[-] noon. In the end, Li Shimin arranged lunch for everyone here.

By the end of noon, the whole discussion was basically over.

The division of the six departments and the change of functions have not been in place all at once.

The first thing to be restructured is the Ministry of War. To be precise, a separate military department was established outside the Ministry of War. The military department is the highest commanding organization of the Tang army. As for the administrative organization, the military department discusses and appoints the Minister of the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Military Affairs is responsible for all the external administrative management of the military.

The establishment of the military department was naturally a preparation for the independence of military power in the future. The military department theoretically does not belong to any of the three provinces and six departments, but only belongs to the department led by the emperor.

The changes in the Ministry of War are the least, only the functions have been replaced.

Next is the Ministry of Punishment. The Ministry of Punishment splits its functions into two departments, one is the Ministry of Public Security and the other is the Ministry of National Central Intelligence and Security. It combines some functions with the original Dali Temple and reorganizes it into a brand new Dali Temple. Temple, and the brand-new Dali Temple is no longer under the management of Shangshu Province, but directly under the leadership of Menxia Province.

The Ministry of Officials, the head of the six ministries, separated the supervisory functions to form a brand-new Disciplinary Supervision Committee, which was directly under the leadership of the subordinate provinces, and the power of the Ministry of Officials was reduced.

The biggest change is the Ministry of Civil Affairs. The Ministry of Civil Affairs is mainly divided into four departments: the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Commerce, the Audit Department, and the Ministry of State-owned Assets. There may be more in the future.

The Ministry of Industry is temporarily split into three departments: the Ministry of Land and Resources, the Ministry of Construction, and the Ministry of Industry.

As for the final Ministry of Rituals... It has not been moved, but some functions of the Ministry of Rites have been split out. For example, functions related to currency and other aspects have been split up to the Ministry of Finance, and functions related to legislation have been split up to Zhongshu. In the province, a new national official meeting is being formed by Changsun Wuji.

In addition, the school-related functions of the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial College will be reorganized into a new department, the Ministry of Education.

After the discussion, the three provinces and various departments also have a new framework.

Above the three provinces is naturally the emperor, and the emperor is directly under the leadership of only the military.

The three provinces also have a lot more functional authority.

Menxia Province is directly under: Datang Disciplinary Supervision Committee, Dali Temple with judicial functions.

Directly under Zhongshu Province: A national official meeting is being established.

Shangshu Province is directly under: Ministry of War, Ministry of Public Security, Ministry of National Central Intelligence and Security, Ministry of Officials, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Commerce, Ministry of Audit, Ministry of State-owned Assets, Ministry of Land and Resources, Ministry of Construction, Ministry of Industry, Ministry of Rites, a total of twelve departments.

After the discussion is over, the rest of the matter has nothing to do with Li Ke. How these officials are appointed and which officials should be in charge of what is Li Shimin's business, and it has nothing to do with Li Ke.

It is estimated that the teacher is also handed over to Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and other big bosses to manage each other.

But there are also problems here. First of all, it is the problem of the intelligence department. There is almost no experience in Datang in this regard, but about the assassination of Li Ke before, it is not only Li Shimin who knows, but several major officials in the court. The ministers all know it.

Although the other ministers didn't know, Li Shimin directly threw this department to Li Ke and let Li Ke take charge.

Li Ke was a little confused. The operation of Yuelai Commercial Bank had always been independent, but now Li Shimin asked him to fill in the framework of the Ministry of Intelligence. The main reason is that the person in charge of this aspect has no experience, so he can't use a general in the army, right?

To be honest, Li Ke didn't want to take this job, because wouldn't this be handing over all his hard work to Datang?I just thought about it later, these people have always followed me, they have no regrets, and now their work does not have an orthodox name, but they are all willing to hide.

Li Ke felt that he wanted to give them a future and give them a "name", and becoming Datang's national intelligence personnel was undoubtedly an acknowledgment of their efforts.

As for the staff of the intelligence department, after hesitating again and again, Li Ke decided to let Huo Gang take over.

Although he has always been the commander of Li Ke's guards, because it is related to Li Ke's safety, and Yuelai Trading Company provides intelligence support for Li Ke, Huo Gang naturally knows these things very well, because Yuelai Trading Company is for Li Ke Established for safety.

He knows everything about this whole set of operations and so on, and it is perfect for him to be the Minister of this department.
