Hu Weiyong rebelled, and many generals were involved.
Those generals deserved to die, but many soldiers were actually innocent.
These people simply follow orders.
When an order comes from above, they don't even have the power to refuse.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not kill all such people.
They just received some penalties, and then were randomly assigned to other places.
These people can just be trained by Zhu Zhen.
And Zhu Zhen himself was the general who supported the country in the Ming Dynasty. He controlled the army and no one could find fault with him.
Even Zhu Yuanzhang did not need to discuss with other ministers, he could directly allocate the army to Zhu Zhen.
Because of this, Zhu Zhen easily controlled an army of 100,000 men.
After taking control of the one hundred thousand army, he immediately asked his soldiers to train the one hundred thousand army.
If Zhu Zhen alone wanted to train an army of 100,000, it would be time-consuming and labor-intensive, requiring a lot of energy and time.
However, with soldiers helping with training, the situation is completely different.
There are more than two thousand personal soldiers, and one person can train less than fifty people, which is completely sufficient.
In addition, Zhu Zhen is willing to invest his own money, so his training can be said to be extremely smooth.
So much so that when Zhu Zhen was training, no one else knew about it.
Many of them are still thinking that if Ming Dynasty establishes a new department, they can arrange their people to enter it.
Because of this, many of them were very enthusiastic when they went to court.
Many of them even congratulated the New Year with smiles on their faces.
Even when they saw Zhu Yuanzhang, they were all smiling.
It seems that the haze of Zhu Yuanzhang's previous murders has dissipated, and now they have a new beginning.
Seeing them like this, Zhu Yuanzhang was full of curiosity.
"It seems that all ministers are having a very happy New Year!!"
"Your Majesty, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, we are naturally happy!!"
"Yes, Your Majesty! The people all have sincere smiles on their faces. We are happy and it is reasonable for us to do so!!"
"Your Majesty, this is the golden age of our Ming Dynasty coming!!"
Although Zhu Yuanzhang knew that what these people said was against their will, they were all changing the subject.
But I have to say that Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy after saying this.
After hearing what they said, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help laughing.
After laughing for a while, Zhu Yuanzhang finally announced the name of the new department he was going to establish.
"The department we want to set up is called the Civil Protection Department, which is dedicated to cracking down on gangs and eliminating evil and protecting the safety of the people!"
"Moreover, each village and town will have five permanent personnel, each county will have fifty people, and each prefecture will have an army to use absolute power to protect the safety of our people in the Ming Dynasty!!"
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, many people couldn't help but take a breath.
Although they knew that the number of people in the new department established by Zhu Yuanzhang would not be small.
However, they never expected that the new department established by Zhu Yuanzhang would have so many people.
With just a rough calculation, they knew that this department would require tens of thousands, or even more than 100,000 people.
This made many of them take a breath of cold air. They felt that the people they arranged could easily hold an official position.
Because of this, they changed their minds.
They no longer simply seek an official position, they want to seek important positions in this department.
Only by holding important positions in this department can they gain real power.
As for ordinary positions, there is simply no way to satisfy them.
As soon as such an idea came out, many of them showed ambition in their eyes.
They even looked at each other, wary of others.
It feels like being on guard against others and robbing them of the position they want to fight for.
Originally, many of them were in alliance, but at this time, their alliance seemed to have broken down silently.
In the face of absolute interests, their alliance is too fragile.
Therefore, their hostility has become very obvious.
When Zhu Yuanzhang announced that this new department would select personnel from the army, everyone was dumbfounded.
"What? Molesting people from the army??"
"How is this possible? How can we select personnel from the army? No, this is absolutely not possible!!"
"That's right! This is not possible. How can we select personnel from the army? Isn't this an official? Isn't this a civilian official? This is completely different from the military attaché system!!"
If people are selected from the army, then they civilian officials will have no hope at all.
Because of this, they all spoke out against it.
This situation is not what they want to see.
Because of this, they were determined not to let this happen.
After they retorted loudly, they even spoke directly to Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Your Majesty, this is an official, this is a civilian official. When did civilian officials need to go to the army just to select personnel??"
"Yes, Your Majesty! There are so many talented literati in the world. To use these illiterate military officers without using them is simply a contempt for the talented literati in the world!!"
"Please take back your Majesty's orders. Since you are managing the people, you should let the literati do it instead of using those vulgar generals!!"
"Yes, Your Majesty! This is related to the people of Ming Dynasty, and it is related to the peace of our Ming Dynasty. We must not make such a hasty decision!!"
These civil servants spoke one after another in order to safeguard their own interests.
However, as soon as they opened their mouths, they offended the military attache.
After hearing what they said, the military attachés were naturally unconvinced.
"What are you talking about? Why can't our military attaches manage the people? Moreover, His Majesty said that this department is to protect the people, which is just right for us military attaches!!"
"Yes! Fighting gangs and eradicating evil is what we military officers do. Only we can kill those evil people. As for you civil servants, you are powerless!!"
"Yes! You civil servants are powerless. It's fine if you don't exploit the people. You still want to protect the people. I think you need the protection of the people!"
"This person needs to select our generals, and only our generals can truly be qualified for this position!!"
After speaking, these generals couldn't help but smile.
They felt that their opportunity to make a big profit had come.
However, after they finished speaking, the civil servants also started arguing.
"I think the people who are causing harm to the people are you military officers!"
"Only you people can kill the people without taking their lives as a priority!!"
