Zhao Tai and Wang Bin had a pleasant conversation, and with Wang Bin's move to the throne, all the famous talents in the four states under the jurisdiction of the Zhongyi Army were included in Zhao Tai's bag.
At this time, Zhao Tai and Wang Bin were discussing the establishment of a military government. After an unknown period of time, Wang Wentong came back and entered the lobby. When he saw the two chatting happily, he felt like he was being loved by the old Wang.
When Zhao Tai saw Wang Wentong come in, he immediately smiled and said: "Sir, you are here just in time. I have decided to hire Mr. Deqing as the right military advisor. Mr. Deqing, this is my military advisor Wang Wentong, Mr. Wang Yidao!"
Wang Wentong was a little surprised when he heard that Zhao Tai directly appointed Wang Bin as the right military advisor.
Wang Bin bowed and said, "My Taoist brother's name is like thunder in my ears. I am truly lucky to see you today."
Although Wang Bin was recommended to Zhao Tai by Wang Wentong, when Wang Bin really came to work for Zhao Tai, Wang Wentong still felt a little unhappy.
This is easy to understand. Wang Wentong followed Zhao Tai early and was barely one of the founding team. Wang Bin joined the team halfway, just like Zhuge Liang joined Liu Bei's team halfway and was directly reused. Guan Erye and Zhang Sanye initially Even though he was not convinced, Wang Wentong also felt a little uncomfortable.
However, Wang Bin was obviously a smart man. He probably knew that being reused by Zhao Tai after he joined would probably cause dissatisfaction among the elders, so he complimented Wang Wentong when they first met.
Now is the entrepreneurial stage and we need talents. When Wang Wentong saw Wang Bin giving him face, he smiled and handed over his hand, "I have heard of Brother Deqing's reputation a long time ago. From now on, when we work together, we should work together to help the commander achieve great things."
Zhao Tai watched the conversation between the two, noticed their expressions, and smiled with satisfaction.
As the commander-in-chief of the Zhongyi Army, Zhao Tai not only has to fight against external enemies, but also needs to be on guard against internal enemies.
Whether in military or political matters, Zhao Tai cannot trust any of his subordinates too much.
Because this can easily lead to him being sidelined as a leader, or even being killed by his subordinates.
Therefore, Zhao Tai needs certain checks and balances internally.
This is like some companies, where there are several vice presidents under the leader.
If there is only one vice president under the leader, then the vice president's eyes must be fixed on the leader's position. It is different if there are several vice presidents. If these vice presidents compare and compete with each other, the leader's position will be relatively stable. .
Although this will cause some internal friction, it is indeed useful in management.
Zhao Tai smiled and looked at the two people who were polite to each other. He knew that such an awesome person usually couldn't pee in the same pot. As long as he used some tricks, he could make the two people check and balance each other.
…
Suining County.
After Zhao Tai accepted Wang Bin, he left Sizhou and returned to Suining, preparing to move his family to Pizhou.
On the way back to Suining, Zhao Tai discussed with Wang Wentong and Wang Bin and soon decided to establish an official system and appoint civil and military officials within the territory.
Previously, although Zhao Tai controlled a large territory, he did not have enough talents on hand, so he was unable to appoint officials loyal to him.
Now Zhao Tai has recruited many talents from the territory under his jurisdiction through the recruitment order. In addition, among the people who escaped from the Central Plains, there are also scholars. Zhao Tai has recruited nearly a hundred people, and has the conditions to determine the official system and establish a bureaucratic team.
Under Wang Bin's operation, the local official system of the vassal government continued to be the same as that of the Jin and Song Dynasties, but according to Zhao Tai's request, guard posts that were not controlled by local officials were added.
At the central level, the feudal shogunate replaced the Jin Dynasty court and became the central government of the four states.
Zhao Tai set up left and right military advisers in the shogunate, and set up six cao under the military adviser, which initially established the framework that a political power should have.
After determining the military and political system, Zhao Tai immediately appointed a large number of officials in one fell swoop and gradually established effective rule over Suzhou, Sizhou, Pizhou, and Tengzhou.
Zouxian, Tengzhou, Shandong.
It is close to the Yimeng Mountain area and is one of the strongholds where the Zhongyi Army resettled refugees.
After Zhao Tai defeated the Mongolian Eastern Route Army last year, the people who were moved to Shandong by Zhao Tai have established guard posts and completed farming.
Wang Changnian and Wang Jingde, father and son, led more than 100 households to build forts on Mount Yi and reclaimed thousands of acres of land at the foot of the mountain.
At this time, King Jingde of Heaven was leading the men of a hundred households to strengthen the fortress of the garrison. A group of cavalry galloped from the south and galloped to the foot of the mountain.
"General Banner, there are cavalry coming!" the guard soldier carrying the stone reminded.
Wang Jingde put down what he was doing and turned around to look. Sure enough, he saw a group of cavalry riding at the foot of the mountain, heading towards the camp along the trail.
"He's from the feudal government." Wang Jingde squinted his eyes for a while and then said, "Go and inform my father. Welcome him."
Not long after, the cavalrymen climbed up to their waists and arrived at the foot of the fort. Wang Changnian led everyone forward to salute, clasped his fists and asked, "I don't know what part of the brothers you are from. What are you doing here at Jingan Fort?"
The cavalry surrounded a civil servant. He looked at several people and did not answer, but asked: "Who is Wang Changnian, Wang Baihu?"
Wang Changnian quickly clasped his fists again, "I am."
The civil servant cupped his hands and said: "Wang Baihu, I am Cao Huanzhang, one of the shogunate's soldiers. I have come here for two things. The first is to tell you that Jingan Fort has been promoted to Qianhu Station, and you have been promoted to Qianhu."
Wang Changnian was full of surprise. He was just reclaiming wasteland and building forts in Tengzhou. He did not kill the enemy and perform any meritorious service. How could he become a thousand households?
Cao Huanzhang waved his hand, and a soldier presented a bundle, "Wang Qianhu, here are the official uniforms and badges. Please accept them."
Wang Changnian came to his senses and quickly asked Wang Jingde, who looked excited, to take it for him.
Although there are thousands of households in the guard station, they are not at the same level as those who recruit soldiers. At best, he can only be regarded as the township chief and militia captain, which is not valuable, but after all, he has a staff and is an official.
"Mr. Cao, the vassal government promoted me even though I have not made any achievements. I am terrified." Wang Changnian asked, "Is there something that the vassal government has to do under the humiliation of my post?"
Not only Wang Changnian, but also Cao Huanzhang, who passed the order, was actually pushed to the top.
Half a month ago, he was just a refugee. After not wanting to be recruited by Zhao Tai, he became an official directly.
Generally speaking, official promotion requires a strict admission and assessment system, but now that Zhao Tai is on the market, he doesn't have to pay so much attention to it.
"There is indeed something for you to do!" Cao Huanzhang said in a deep voice: "Now that you have been promoted to the rank of Thousand Households in the Guard House, the vassal government will allocate 900 households and you will be responsible for resettling them."
When Wang Changnian heard this, his expression changed immediately. He knew that there was no such thing as pie in the sky.
Cao Huanzhang seemed to be experienced enough to predict what he wanted to say, and said directly in advance: "Don't worry, the vassal government will provide them with rations. You only need to teach them to farm and build forts in peacetime, and lead them to obey the vassal government's orders during war." ”
