Chapter 477 Zhaoqing County Structure

[PS: Book friend group 571542584, there is a map in the group, welcome to join the group to complain...]

The military merit system and military rank system formulated by the Military Affairs Administration are also applicable to naval divisions. It's just that different arms have different background colors for military rank medals.

The sailor's epaulets are based on blue, which symbolizes the endless sea.

The cavalry unit uses red as the base, which symbolizes the passion like fire. The infantry unit uses khaki silk, which symbolizes indestructibility and is as thick as dirt.

The three arms have their own meanings.

In addition to subdividing military ranks and military pay, the Military Affairs Administration also has detailed regulations on the level of military merit. The entire military merit system is divided into three ranks and nine ranks, with the first rank being the highest and the ninth rank being the lowest.

The first to third ranks are the upper ranks; the fourth to sixth ranks are the middle ranks; the seventh to ninth ranks are the lower ranks.

The ranks are different, and the rewards are also different.

Higher-rank military merits are awarded titles; middle-ranked military merits are promoted to military ranks; lower-ranked military merits are rewarded with property.

The evaluation standard of military merit level is mainly based on the number of enemies killed on the battlefield, supplemented by other factors such as command, logistics, strategy, cover, etc., for a comprehensive evaluation.

At the same time, the judging criteria are different for soldiers and generals of different ranks. For example, the duty of a military commander is to command combat, and it cannot be judged simply and roughly by the number of enemies killed.

Another example is the role of a counselor, which is to make plans and win a thousand miles.

All these and so on, and so on.

The evaluation and statistics of military merits are jointly completed by the inspectors and generals stationed by the Military Affairs Administration, each performing its own duties. The minimum standard for participating commanding generals is battalion uprightness.

The mutual supervision between the two sides is also to prevent vicious incidents such as false reporting of military merits or embezzlement of military merits.

Of course, the entire military merit evaluation system, including its operating mechanism, has not been tested in practice, and there must still be problems of one kind or another.

This is a great test of Du Ruhui's ability.

In many cases, the formulated system is very ideal, but when it is implemented below, it is out of shape. The end result is not only useless, but harmful.

This is true of all reforms and failures in history. Whether it is Wang Mang's transformation of the ideal society or the famous Wang Anshi's reform, there are problems at the implementation level.

Of course, in the final analysis, when the reformers formulated the laws and regulations, they did not combine them with reality, and underestimated the obstacles and difficulties at the implementation level, which eventually led to failure.

In addition, it is necessary to comprehend the essence of the four characters "step by step".

This means that in the game, if it is placed in the real ancient society, this change cannot be implemented at all. As an emperor, I don't even dare to think about it.

Once it is proposed, there will be countless vested interests, or guardians of tradition, who will come out to obstruct it.

It's different in the game. In the entire territory, there are neither nobles from aristocratic families nor Confucian defenders who stand in the way, and the people's concepts are relatively open.

Based on this, Ouyang Shuo was full of confidence.

During this period, in addition to formulating the two major systems, the Military Affairs Administration also made some progress in the other task assigned to Ouyang Shuo before he left Shanhai City, that is, improving the logistics support system.

At the military and political meeting, Du Ruhui made a brief report.

This time, the Combat Readiness Administration targeted the logistics support at the soldiers' normal attire except armor. Take sword and shield soldiers as an example. In addition to the armor and helmet worn outside, they also wear cotton clothes inside and shoes under their feet.

Therefore, the War Preparedness Administration built two super-large quilt factories in one go in Lianzhou County and Leizhou County. Clothing factories mainly produce military uniforms, cotton shoes, quilts, cotton socks, and even daily supplies such as towels.

These things may seem inconspicuous, but to soldiers, they are extremely important.

It is not bad for the ancient army to be able to issue armor and weapons. The uniforms and underwear worn by the soldiers are all brought from home, and in winter, they have to send clothes from home.

This time, the Combat Readiness Department was extremely considerate and dealt with all these materials in one go.

Undoubtedly, a scientific and reasonable logistics support system is also one of the important symbols of the professionalization of the military.

The War Readiness Agency is on the right path.

...

After dealing with military matters, the next step is to discuss the structure of Zhaoqing County.

As the seat of Zhaoqing County, Ouyang Shuo still chose Tianshuang County, which was renamed Tianshuang City. Although Tianshuang City has experienced wars, its infrastructure construction is still the best in the county.

Like Leizhou County, Zhaoqing County also has five prefectures.

The current Wulong County will be occupied after the deliberations are over, destroying its teleportation function and officially changing its name to Wulong City as the seat of Wulong Mansion in the northern part of Zhaoqing County.

Although Ouyang Shuo liked the teleportation formation in Wulong County very much, he still had to part with it. He didn't dare to put the control of a teleportation array in the hands of someone he didn't trust.

Mr. Latiao has returned to Wulong County after evacuating from Yun'an County. For this person, Ouyang Shuo really couldn't give him the same trust he had for Mulan Yue.

After all, they are not familiar with each other, and the two parties are just exchanging interests.

After the discussion is over, Young Master Latiao will go to a county seat in Leizhou County and leave Zhaoqing County completely.

After all, Ouyang Shuo was still deeply wary of players.

Yun'an County, the former base camp of the Allied Forces, will be renamed Yun'an City as the seat of Yun'an Mansion in the central part of Zhaoqing County. Yaogu County and Genglou County are both included in the jurisdiction of Yun'an Prefecture.

Originally, Cangcheng County was more suitable as a prefectural government than Yun'an County. Reluctantly, Cangcheng County was completely burned to ruins by a big fire that started in vain, and the people were devastated.

Ouyang Shuo no longer plans to rebuild Yun'an County, so as not to arouse the resistance of the local people.

Just like this, Ouyang Shuo had to carefully weigh the candidates for the magistrate of Yun'an Mansion. He had to choose someone who had both ability and political integrity, as well as a certain skill to govern, and slowly calm down the local people's grievances.

In the end, Ouyang Shuo delineated Cui Shousi, the magistrate of Tianfeng Prefecture in Lianzhou County.

Cui Shousi has done a lot in Tianfeng Mansion, and the various indicators of Tianfeng Mansion are far ahead in the whole county. According to the information feedback sent by the Supervision Department, the local people also have a very good opinion of Cui Shousi, the prefect.

Therefore, Ouyang Shuo believed that Cui Shousi could manage Yun'an Mansion well.

In addition to Tianshuang Mansion, Wulong Mansion, and Yun'an Mansion, the rest are Shuitai Mansion and Muge Mansion. Shuitaifu is located in the south of Zhaoqing County, while Mugefu is adjacent to Jiaozhou County in the east.

Ouyang Shuo, the Sheriff of Zhaoqing County, still chose Du Sijing.

After getting along for a period of time, Ouyang Shuo had a preliminary judgment on Du Sijing. This person has rich experience in government affairs, and knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. He is also tactful in his actions. He is still qualified for the post of county guard.

【Name】: Du Sijing (Wang class)

【Dynasty】: Yuan Dynasty

[Identity]: Sheriff of Zhaoqing County, Southern Border Protectorate

[Occupation]: civil servant

[Loyalty]: 75 points

[Commander]: 50 [Force]: 35 [Intelligence]: 65 [Politics]: 75

[Speciality]: Wending (increase the administrative efficiency of the territory by 20%, increase the prestige of the territory by 10%, and increase the integrity level of the territory by 15%)

[Comment]: Du Sijing first served Kublai Khan in the vassal mansion, learned from Xu Heng, and went all the way to Zhongshu Zuocheng. While at home, he did a lot of research on medicine and compiled "Jisheng Diaocui Fang".

The remaining prefect candidates will be selected by the Administration Department and reported to Ouyang Shuo for approval.

It just so happened that Zhaoqing County will not be as hasty as Leizhou County when the Administrative Department really conducts the evaluation of officials throughout the territory. All officials must pass the examination before they can take office.

Needless to say, a large number of local officials in Zhaoqing County will pack up and leave.

In this regard, Ouyang Shuo decided to resort to thunderbolt means. In Zhaoqing County now, there are more than 200,000 troops, and there is really no one who can make any waves.

After deciding on the structure of Zhaoqing County, Ouyang Shuo will hand over the remaining matters to the four major bureaus, and Du Sijing, who has just taken office, will solve the rest together.

After experiencing the transformation of Leizhou County, the four major bureaus are already familiar with it.

Taking advantage of her free time, Yingyou reported to Ouyang Shuo the income and expenditure of the territory in August.

Shanhai City handed over 95,000 gold coins, Lianzhou County handed over 55,000 gold coins, Leizhou County handed over 22,000 gold coins, and Qiongzhou County handed over 84,000 gold coins. Coupled with the direct income of 80,000 gold coins from the Industry Department, the total fiscal revenue of the territory in August was 336,000 gold coins.

Compared with July, fiscal revenue has increased by more than 100,000 gold coins, an astonishing 40% growth rate.

There are three main good news.

First, Leizhou County achieved fiscal revenue for the first time. Although it is not as good as the other two counties, it is already considerable.

The development of Leizhou County is enough to prove that external expansion is the kingly way. Even if the war costs a lot, a lot of money needs to be invested in infrastructure construction in the early stage, but it can generate a steady stream of income in the later stage.

This deal is worth it!

Second, the fiscal revenue of Qiongzhou County has directly doubled.

With the advent of the age of great voyages, the economy of Yashan City immediately experienced explosive growth, which in turn drove the fiscal revenue of the entire Qiongzhou County to a large level.

With the current trend, it is not impossible for Qiongzhou County to surpass Lianzhou County.

After all, since Shanhai City was separated from Lianzhou County, its competitive advantage has been weakened by more than 30%.

Third, the income of the shipbuilding industry has skyrocketed.

Also benefiting from the arrival of the age of great voyages, although the industry department has distributed a number of high-quality industries such as Sanhua Winery and Langshan Mine according to Ouyang Shuo's request, the overall income has not decreased but increased.

As a result, Shanhai City's fiscal revenue also ushered in a small increase.

According to Yingyou's estimation, the dividends brought by the era of great voyages will last for a long time.

It is foreseeable that in the next six months, the territory's finances will be relatively ample. This is also the root cause of Ouyang Shuo's military expansion, and the Ministry of Finance did not raise objections.

Fiscal revenue increased in August, but the corresponding fiscal transfer payment decreased. Therefore, throughout August, the territory achieved a record-breaking net financial income of 185,000 gold coins.

If you have money, you will naturally be confident.
