Chapter 134: Everything is Difficult at the Beginning

There are a total of five soldiers in Liaodong, and Gao Pragmatic is one of them, who dominates southern Liaoning.

The reason why I say "lord" is because Kong Dongru, the Haigai general who can theoretically be in charge of southern Liaoning with him, is a military general, and in this era, his actual status is far inferior to that of him, a civil official.

In addition, the so-called Haigai Counselor, as the name suggests, is only in charge of Haizhou and Gaizhou, and the further south Jinzhou and Fuzhou are not under their jurisdiction, which is directly less than half of the high-pragmatism jurisdiction.

Moreover, the position of military equipment itself has the responsibility of supervising the army, since it is the supervision of the army, who is the supervisor? Naturally, whoever is stationed here will supervise whose army, and now...... The main thing is the sea cover general Kong Dongru.

I have the duty to supervise you, and you dare not listen to me? Just like the position of governor (to be exact, it should be dispatched), it was originally established in the Ming Dynasty to supervise local officials, and as a result, he slowly became the local chief official.

The same is true of the patrol, which is to supervise all local officials, including the governor, although because the rank itself is too low, and the term of office is only one year, and he has not been able to become a local chief, but look at the prestige of Gao Shishi in Guangxi, you can know that the word "supervision" is powerful in the Ming Dynasty.

The post of "military armament", or this dispatch, is not itself the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, and its source can be traced back to the first year of Hongxi or the first year of orthodoxy - because there is controversy in the historiography, this is not much to say.

In short, this position is not the ancestral system, that is, the later "airborne" officer, so under the military armament, there are no relevant yamen and subordinates, but when he becomes the absolute chief official of the local administration, military, justice, etc., other civil and military officials in the region actually become his subordinates.

However, as soon as Gao Shifu took office, he discovered a big problem: he had a shortage of civil servants under him, especially those in charge of local administration.

The system in Liaodong has always been a military management system, and there are no prefectures and counties. For example, Gaizhou, the current high-level and pragmatic autumn and winter station, its official name is "Gaizhou Wei", that is, this is a health station, and the rest of Haizhou, Fuzhou, and Jinzhou are all the same.

That is to say, the administration of these places is actually in the hands of the guards, and the commanders and envoys of the guards are all military attachés, and most of them are hereditary military attachés.

Sitting in the study of the military constitution yamen, Gao Shishi, who was carefully reviewing the documents and case files left by the successive Yuanma Siqing and Jin Fuhai Gai soldiers, suddenly slapped his thigh!

", I can understand why the Red Dynasty's Beidacang and Liaodong, the core area of the old industrial base in the Northeast, have never been able to support themselves in the Ming Dynasty, and they have always needed blood transfusion in the customs for two hundred years, until after the 'Liao Affair Turmoil', the whole country transfused blood for it - this local military management, how can it develop? Expect that a group of guards who only know how to turn military households into their own serfs can build the Northern Okura? Dreaming! ”

But...... What to do? Ask for the establishment of a grassroots civil service system? I'm afraid it won't work.

The implementation of military management in the nine-border region is an ancestral system, and the establishment of the superintendent and military preparation road itself has already had to be added on the basis of the ancestral system, and it is very difficult to continue to set it up.

This is because the establishment of the governor and the military preparation road has its particularity of the times, the original Hongwu period in the nine border area set up a large number of kings, but with the battle of Jingnan, Zhu Di called the emperor, the king of the province gradually moved inward, the military power of the border is concentrated in the general army, resulting in the general military power is too large, this is the beginning to use the governor to divide power and suppress.

However, it was later discovered that the newly established governors could only play a role in logistics and other matters in terms of military power, and the degree of division of the general military power was still insufficient, so a military reserve road was set up.

Therefore, the military power of the governor in the nine-border region is actually accomplished through the military preparation road - if the military preparation road under the supervision of the governor does not cooperate, the general soldiers will not be able to mobilize any of the guards, let alone allocate grain, grass, ordnance and other materials, at this time, the general soldiers can mobilize, in fact, only their "entourage" is left.

But now, if he wants to set up prefectures and counties in Liaodong to replace the health center, Gao Pragmatic feels that it is difficult to win much support, firstly because of the ancestral system, and secondly, because of the inertia of thinking.

At this time, the Ming officials always regarded Jiubian as a frontier military town to protect the Central Plains, and the requirements for these areas were to have a stable defense line, rather than an economically developed and cultural gathering.

It is even very likely that most officials will feel that the economy of a region like Liaodong should not be too developed - because if you are too developed, you will be robbed by the Mongols and Jurchens once, and the loss will be even greater?

And Li Chengliang's performance in Liaodong over the past ten years has also deepened the impression of the court officials: Li Chengliang is so capable of fighting, there is no guarantee that Liaodong will not be robbed, at most he can only take revenge after being robbed and fight back.

Then in turn, a conclusion is drawn: the more developed Liaodong is, the more it will be robbed, and once it is robbed, the more it will become an enemy.

Gao pragmatic scratched his head a little, this is difficult......

If the court officials think that Liaodong can be vigorously developed, the premise is that Liaodong is stable and will not be beaten and robbed. And Gao Pragmatic felt that if Liaodong wanted not to be beaten and robbed, it must first have strong strength.

And this kind of strength can't always be achieved by blood transfusion in the Guannai, and Liaodong itself must have enough hematopoietic capacity, otherwise with the transportation conditions of this era, even if he has a high pragmatism to open the shipping hanging, after all, it is far from being comparable with the efficiency of later generations!

Whose is the transportation loss here? Do you really think that Jinghua will carry it, and there will be no "drifting"? It's nothing more than Jinghua's drifting is really drifting, and it won't be falsely reported.

Gao Pragmatic frowned deeply, pacing back and forth in the study, pondering how to create the prerequisites for the development of Liaodong.

After a long while, he stood still with a solemn face, and said in a low voice: "Other areas in eastern Liaoning are not quiet, but my southern Liaoning is still relatively peaceful, I might as well do the opposite, first build stability in southern Liaoning, make it a pilot that is not a pilot, and then use this as an example to persuade the imperial court."

As for the lack of enough civil servants...... If you don't, don't have it first, everything is difficult at the beginning, and I will first summon a few high-level guards to Gaizhou for a meeting to observe which people can make do with it. If you really can't even make do with it, then don't blame me for directly setting you up! ”

Most of the officers of the guard post are hereditary, and the hereditary commanders and envoys in the customs area also have frequent exchanges, and even cross-provincial exchanges, while in this area of Liaodong, because of the geographical relationship, the exchange of officers of the guard post is rarely cross-regional, and they are basically transferred around in Liaodong, so the integrity is particularly strong.

Gao Shishi has just arrived, although he is a strong dragon, he doesn't want to be on the same page as soon as he comes, so he doesn't plan to get along with the generals under his command on a large scale, but plans to rely on Jinghua's family system to temporarily empty their real power in case they are really unusable—of course, only in terms of local management.

There are more than 40,000 soldiers on the register, and none of them are available in Kong Dongru's eyes, how can this situation be endured by high pragmatism?

Therefore, on the one hand, it is necessary to do a good job in the economy of southern Liaoning, at least to be rich enough to be able to prepare its own armor and weapons (purchased locally, but not necessarily self-produced), and even better to solve the food problem at the same time, whether it is to buy or plant.

And then in parallel with it, it is the real "rectification of the gold and the restoration of the sea and the armament".
