Chapter 2270: Gui Zi Juan starts to integrate, step by

Chapter 2270 Gui Zijuan starts to integrate, step by step

The conversation was very lively. Feng Ziying was frank and honest. Wang Yingxiong also told everything he knew. Sun Chuanting and Fu Zonglong were also mobilized and actively participated in the conversation.

Feng Ziying also talked about some of her own reform views. For example, three offices should be established under the current department, one is the general office, the second is the staff office, and the third is the intelligence office.

The responsibilities of the General Office are naturally to upload and distribute, and connect left and right. This was originally responsible for breaking things up, but the efficiency was very low and it basically did not play any role. It was all handled by the principals and even the outsiders. This area is similar to the offices of later generations. work must also be strengthened.

The Intelligence Department didn't ask. Feng Ziying also talked about her own ideas, such as establishing the Liaodong Section, Chahar Section, Tumut and Ordosco, Yarkand and Uzbek Section, Korean Japan Section, Southwest Section, Nanyang Section Science needs to be segmented and specialized.

The Staff Office does not need to be as detailed as the Intelligence Office. It is divided according to large areas. For example, it can be divided into four parts: northeast, north, northwest and other parts. This is also based on the enemy situation that Zhou Dynasty is currently facing.

Feng Ziying also proposed that she would abolish the Fifth Army Governor's Office and bring it under the direct jurisdiction of the Ministry of War. It would set up the Training and Cleaning Department and the Logistics Cleaning Department, and merge the Vehicle and Driving Department into the Logistics Department, so that the War Department could be divided into five departments. , and then we will consider splitting the functional departments into the Staff Department and the Intelligence Department, which will eventually be divided into six departments and one department.

Feng Ziying's series of views made Wang Yingxiong and three others feel excited and shocked at the same time. Feng Ziying had just taken up the post, and doing so seemed a bit deviant and unruly. What did the other two big bosses in the department think? What does the cabinet think?

Seeing the eager and somewhat worried expressions in the eyes of several people, Feng Ziying also smiled and waved her hands: "Today I am just giving you a refresher, that is to say, I will talk about some of my own ideas, and This does not mean that it will be implemented immediately and become a reality. This requires me to slowly discuss with Lord Shangshu and Lord Zuo Shilang. In general, I have to get their minds straight, so that I can talk about reporting to the cabinet ministers to see if it can be done. I have no idea, but there is no doubt that the current Ministry of War, especially the Staff Division, is not suitable for the status quo and must be reformed. The same is true for the Ministry of War. It is overstaffed, prevaricating, unprofessional, procrastinating, and inefficient. The situation is very prominent, I believe that both the Minister of Huaichang and the Minister of Zhisheng can see it, so how to deal with it, the only solution is reform!"

Feng Ziying leaned back on the chair and relaxed a little, "I know that this needs to be reformed, and it will definitely touch the interests of some people. I am used to being idle, and I am used to coming in early and leaving early. I left a piece of official work aside and nothing happened for ten and a half months." , This is so comfortable, but it won’t work in the future. It will be settled within a time limit. I have to finalize this first. Feixiong, Boya, Zhonglun, you three must be clear-headed..."

Feng Ziying's ideas were not temporary. In fact, when he was in Shaanxi, he consciously chose some details to carry out reforms. However, he also knew that he did not stay in Shaanxi for a long time. Even if many measures were finalized, they would most likely be implemented in the future. It would be abandoned, so there weren't many big moves, but when he arrived at the Ministry of War, he felt it was necessary to seriously think about how to reform it.

 After saying goodbye to He Huchen and Yang Zhaoji, Feng Ziying returned to the capital.

 He Yang's Second Division was stationed in Tianjin Guards. As part of the Northern Army Corps, He Yang's Second Division was stationed in Shuntian Prefecture as a Beijing camp army, while the troops from Ji Town were stationed in the Western Liaoning Corridor.

 After being defeated, the Shanxi Town Army was reorganized and became part of the Jizhen Army, and was basically stationed near Shanhaiguan.

Feng Ziying made a special trip to Tianjin Guards. He and Yang's Second Division can be regarded as his "direct relatives". Although on the surface they were defeated from the Beijing Camp, reorganized, returned to the Beijing Camp, and now joined the Northern Front Army, in fact It is unlikely that they will return to the capital camp again and will only integrate into the Jizhen army. This time they go to Liaodong with the main force of Jizhen.

He Huchen and Yang Zhaoji were naturally surprised that Feng Ziying came to inspect and meet with him.

Now Feng Ziying is no longer the former Shuntian Prime Minister, but one of the three giants who are actually directly in charge of the entire Zhou army, and he is also the right minister responsible for arranging war.

On the surface, it seems that the Right Minister is not as good as the Zuo Minister who is in charge of the Military Selection Department, but for the warriors, fighting is the only chance for them to be promoted. As long as the battle is fought, everything is not a problem.

Now with Feng Ziying as their backer, He Huchen and Yang Zhaoji were both ambitious and wanted to make contributions on the Liaodong battlefield.

Feng Ziying naturally wanted to encourage and remind him. Although he also knew that the battlefield in Liaodong was not easy to fight, if the support of the Northern Front Army Corps was in place and Zhao Shujiao did not act hastily, it should still be possible to defend the Shenyang Central Guard, but Jun Jun could If they can't be saved, it depends on the on-the-spot command ability of Zhao Shujiao and You Shilu.

Since I have gone to Tianjin Wei, I will definitely go to Wang Xifeng and Busia Mara to meet them.

However, Feng Ziying did not stay in Tianjin Wei for too long and only stayed for one night, but this made Wang Xifeng and Busia Mara overjoyed.

Anyway, after Feng Ziying returned to Beijing, she stayed in the Ministry of War's public house for two nights before returning to the house on the pretext of being busy with military affairs. This also shows how powerful Wang Xifeng and Busia Mara are in fighting after a long drought.

 Huang Degong and Zuo Liangyu have already established a firm foothold in Ji Town and have made a name for themselves. Now if He Huchen and Yang Zhaoji can also make contributions in the Liaodong battlefield, then these new generals can be regarded as their basic base.

Compared with my father's men such as He Shixian, the You brothers, Cao Wenzhao, Liu Dongyang, and Liu Baichuan, although these generals of my own are still a little immature, as time goes by, they have grown up step by step. Counting Wang Chenghu, Qiu Zixiong, Zhao Qianshan, Ma Jinbao, Modlen and other miscellaneous generals who took the initiative to join them.

Feng Ziying knew very well that with the turmoil in the Zhou Dynasty, if the imperial court and Nanjing were to make peace, it would mean that the pattern of civil and military control would be affected. Although the civil cabinet may still be strong, the military forces have experienced a long period of decline. After the period, there began to be some bottoming out trends. This was also an opportunity that Prince Yi Zhong wanted to take advantage of. It would not be so easy for military leaders like Chen Jixian and his father to easily eliminate the impact. If Prince Teng Others will also take the opportunity to squeeze in here, and this pattern will become more obvious.

In this case, it is very important to form a basic base of military commanders of your own, especially since you are still a civil servant, which is much more convenient than your father, and will not arouse too much suspicion.

The only thing that is worrisome is that Zuo Liangyu, He Huchen and other generals are too young and have too little qualifications. They still need time to accumulate. Wang Chenghu, Zhao Qianshan and Ma Jinbao are miscellaneous generals and are difficult to squeeze into. Such as the Datong Clan, Jiliao Clan, Xuanfu Clan and even the Northwest Clan that is gradually taking shape now, they are in the big mountains of the military, so they are bound to be discriminated against and suppressed in their growth.

As the right minister of the Ministry of War, he is a very important position and can play a special role in their future selection and appointment. However, this also requires them to show a solid record in order to have the confidence to convince their colleagues and superiors.

“Feng Ziying has been hiding in Tianjin Wei again. How many days has it been?” Guo Qinjun was almost going crazy.

 A series of bad news came one after another, making her feel restless like an ant on a hot pot, but she could not find anyone to help her.

"I heard that I'm back." Zhou Peisheng said with a wry smile, "But he has been living in the Ministry of War residence and has not even returned home. He is busy with official duties. It is said that he is mainly dealing with the Northern Front Army's eastward journey to Liaodong."

"Is he so busy?" Guo Qinyun was angry and suspicious, "I have only been in office for a few days, and he is already busy running to Tianjin and the Northern Front Army's eastward crossing. Shouldn't it be the responsibility of the driver? The driver should be the Zuo Shilang It’s not within the jurisdiction of his right-hand minister, right?”

Not to mention, Guo Qinyun was well aware of the division of labor between the seven central and central government affairs, and she knew that Feng Ziying should not be in charge of the driving department.

"I heard that it was Feng Ziying who took the initiative to ask for the job. He was more familiar with the businessmen. He promoted the construction of the ports of Dagu and Yuguan when he was the Tongzhi of Yongping Prefecture and the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture. Therefore, the Shanshan and Shaanxi merchants have He is very close to them, and it is more convenient to coordinate civilian ships." Zhou Peisheng also went to ask specifically.

After Feng Ziying returned to the capital, she became the left minister of the Ministry of War. Concubine Quan was overjoyed. She went to Chongxuan Temple for several days. She never thought that Feng Ziying didn't have much thought to take care of this place. She also sent Dehai to visit her. But Feng Ziying dismissed it with a few words, then got busy, and then went to Tianjin Wei.

Zhou Peisheng could feel the change in the mood of the court. The rumors that the court was negotiating with Nanjing should be true. Prince Yi Zhong might follow the example of Emperor Jingtai and Emperor Tianshun of the Ming Dynasty. In that case, several of Emperor Yonglong's I'm afraid that my son's attempt to fetch water from a bamboo basket will be in vain. Not to mention Prince Gong, even Prince Lu of Meiyue River will also be rejoicing in vain.

During this period, he also noticed that Mei Yuexi and Dai Quan were in a state of panic all day long. While feeling funny, he was also full of doubts about his own fate. If Prince Lu didn't have a chance, how could Prince Gong still make it?

Once Prince Yitada succeeds to the throne, Emperor Yonglong's lineage will definitely be relegated to the cold palace, and it is normal for them to be sequestered. It is very likely that they will even be rewarded with a pot of poisonous wine.

 The problem is that we are now helpless and don't even know how to change this general trend.

No one cares about Prince Gong at all now. Emperor Yonglong's lineage is about to be kicked out. Who cares about Prince Gong, a young man like him?
