Chapter 366: Pain and Happiness
In recent months, Lin Ziran has become desperate for those career officers or bureaucrats who like to surrender at every turn.
These people, whether they are generals or civilian officials, they don't care who the county guard is, and they don't care about whether they are unified or not, they only care about their personal power, so they can betray Cheng Lingfeng, they can also betray Jian Minggang, and in the same way, they can also betray Lin Ziran in the future.
It's two years earlier, or even just a few months ago, Lin Ziran may still have some hope for them, and he will still use them if he can use them.
For some of the people who are used, they may also use various means to guard against and balance to ensure that they will not betray.
But now, Lin Ziran didn't give them a chance to betray in the first place!
Because Lin Ziran can't even use them!
Not only did he not need to surrender and surrender officers, but he also didn't need civilian officials.
Even if there are not many qualified civil officials under him now, Lin Ziran insists on only using his descendants from the beginning.
If there are fewer people, it is a big deal to wear multiple hats, and everyone will work longer hours.
If in the old days an organization needed 100 people, each of them working eight hours to complete the work.
Now, everyone works sixteen hours, so there are only fifty people!
Don't say that Lin Ziran is squeezing them, this is to burden them and value them!
So now the officials in the civil service system headed by Ding Quankun are suffering and happy!
Because they only used a quarter of the personnel of Cheng Lingfeng's era to complete the work of the entire county guard office!
It's not just about being busy, it's about having more authority.
Of course, Lin Ziran will not let this situation continue, Lin Ziran has been expanding the personnel of the official system under his command, and some of them are directly recruited from the society.
The other part is selected from among the demobilized officers.
In the process of reorganization this time, a considerable number of officers, non-commissioned officers, and even senior soldiers will retire from active duty because they are unwilling to continue to serve in the army, or because they cannot meet their tactical literacy, or because they are injured or sick.
In fact, most of these people will work in various government agencies, and will be awarded corresponding positions according to their military rank before retirement.
Although the temporary gap is still very large, it can only be boiled slowly, and it is not possible to use people casually because of a lack of people.
Whether it is the military system or the civilian system, Lin Ziran needs to ensure their loyalty, not to mention the ability or anything, but at least he must be able to firmly carry out his orders.
For example, if it is placed in the previous Jianminggang era or Cheng Lingfeng era, it is not so easy to do it.
But now, Lin Ziran ordered to go down, and all the nine counties and one district in the county did it.
Why?
Because the current political officials of nine counties and one district are all his confidants of Lin Ziran.
Collecting local financial power does not mean that all fiscal revenues are collected, but that the distribution method and proportion of fiscal revenues are reformulated to ensure that most of the fiscal revenues can be collected and handled by the financial office of the county government for overall management.
Thoroughly reining in military power and financial power is the basic policy set by Lin Ziran.
He did not agree with the way in Cheng Lingfeng's era that all counties and towns had local militia troops, and local counties and towns had more free financial funds.
This will lead to local separatism, and make the generals or other officials under his command have undeserved thoughts, such as changing the county guard if they are unhappy that day.
The previous Jian Ming Gang is the most obvious example.
Lin Ziran didn't want a Jian Ming post to appear under his command!
Therefore, militarily, he eliminated all local militia groups, and at the same time prevented the field troops from recruiting soldiers on their own, and did not even let the units interfere in the training of new soldiers.
In the Luo'an Garrison under Lin Ziran, the recruitment of soldiers is the scope of work of the Supervision and Training Department, the training of recruits is the scope of work of the Training Department of the General Staff Office, and the supplementary distribution of recruits to various units is within the scope of work of the Operations Department of the General Staff Office.
A simple source of recruitment and training supplement, was forcibly split into many programs by Lin Ziran, and the scores were under the jurisdiction of different departments.
At the same time, it is strictly forbidden for the generals of all units to recruit troops on their own, and they are not even allowed to surrender troops.
Even if it is a replenishment of troops on the spot on the front line, it can only be replenished without the permission of various departments.
Although this will cause cumbersome procedures and other problems, Lin Ziran would rather take on other problems than open the door for each unit to recruit troops on their own.
In addition, Lin Ziran also imposed restrictions on the salaries of soldiers and the replenishment of weapons and ammunition.
The salaries of the soldiers have always been paid directly by the salary office, and they have nothing to do with the commanders of the various units, so it is forbidden for the commanders of the units to deduct their salaries and falsely report the number of troops, and it is also necessary to prevent the commanders of the various units from secretly recruiting and expanding the scale.
The same is true for weapons, ammunition and other materials, such as guns and ammunition and other combat equipment, which are all purchased in a unified manner at the beginning of the ordnance and transported by the logistics department.
Even if the front-line troops need to purchase daily necessities on the spot, they will be managed by logistics officers dispatched by the logistics department.
It is worth mentioning that the logistics officers in the various units under Lin Ziran's command are not only subordinate to the commanders of each unit, but also under the jurisdiction of the logistics department, adopting a dual management model.
Lin Ziran left only one power to the commanders of the various troops, to put it bluntly: to fight!
The soldiers will be recruited and trained and sent to you later, and you don't have to worry about the salary, the salary office will pay it on time, and you don't have to worry about weapons and equipment, and there are people from the ordnance department to purchase them.
Except for training and fighting, you don't have to worry about other things.
And this has an additional advantage, that is, the commanders of each unit will not put the troops on the spot as their own private soldiers, and they will not look forward and backward when fighting, and they will worry that their personal power will not be guaranteed if they run out of their families, and they will not have to worry about this kind of problem at all if they lead the army to fight under Lin Ziran.
As long as you can fight, even if the troops are exhausted, Lin Ziran will replenish it for you in minutes.
After making a lot of control in the military, Lin Ziran now has a strong control over the troops, but Cheng Lingfeng back then and Jian Minggang before were far inferior.
In addition to military control, another major measure is the retrenchment of local fiscal power.
In addition to concentrating fiscal revenues to do big things and alleviate fiscal pressure, another major purpose is to prevent local officials from controlling fiscal power, which may lead to undesirable thoughts.
Military and financial resources must be firmly grasped.
This is also the reason why Lin Ziran, whether he is civil or military, is reused by the brain, and only uses his lineage.
Lack of ability, lack of experience is not afraid, there will always be a slow learner.
Lin Ziran had the patience to wait for them to grow up gradually, and he would not say that like some stubborn rulers, the subordinate generals would directly remove and behead them if they lost a battle.
Fighting, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and it is normal to lose a battle once in a while, although Lin Ziran will not say it to outsiders, but he also acquiesces in this situation.
Therefore, for the experience and ability that many people, and even subordinates are worried about, in Lin Ziran's opinion, it is not a problem.
After Lin Ziran returned to Luo'an City, he successively issued more than a dozen instructions in Linjiang Manor, each of which was to strengthen his control over the troops and Luo'an County.
After being busy for more than a month, after initially straightening out these things, Lin Ziran had time to look in other directions!
