The disturbances in the capital did not affect the meandering road. Fu Bi was transferred to Hequ Road and served as the deputy envoy of Jinglu, which was actually the supervisor of Shi Quanbin in the past. Together with Zhang Sheng, the original deputy envoy of economic strategy, there was a pattern of one envoy and two deputy envoys on Hequ Road.

Fu Bi got off the train, looked at the white expanse around him, and said to Zhang Sheng and the others who greeted him: "I didn't expect it to be snowing here now." ”

Zhang Sheng said: "Hutian snowed in August, and now it is mid-September, and snow is commonplace. ”

After speaking, he saluted Fu Bi. Many officials behind him saluted Fu Bi together.

Fu Bi returned the salute, and with Zhang Sheng and everyone, they went to Shengzhou not far away. When I entered the city, I saw Du Zhongxiao and went to rest. In the evening, Du Zhongxiao hosted the wind for Fu Bi, and dispersed happily, without saying anything all night.

Early the next morning, Du Zhongxiao arrived at the official hall, and when he saw that the two deputy envoys did not come, he sat behind the case and read some official documents casually.

With Du Zhongxiao's current status, there are not many officials who can come to be deputy envoys and supervisors of the army. The imperial court deliberated again and again and sent Fu Bi over. During the Qingli period, when Fan Zhongyan implemented the new policy, Fu Bi served as a privy deputy envoy, and then served in many places and held a higher official position. Because of the relationship between the Qingli New Deal, Fu Bi has a clear family among the officials in the DPRK and China and has a certain status. In the Qingli New Deal of that year, Fu Bi was the core figure second only to Fan Zhongyan. Many years have passed since the Qingli New Deal, Han Qi returned to the central government as a privy envoy, and the suppression of Fu Bi and these people is no longer so serious.

The sun rose, Fu Bi and Zhang Sheng each came to the official hall and saluted Du Zhongxiao.

After seeing the ceremony, they each sat down, Du Zhongxiao said: "Guanwen is new to Hequ Road, in the past few days, Shengzhou City has taken a walk to understand the customs here." Unlike other places, Hequ Road is in the extreme north, and the climate is very cold. Just entered September, there was a heavy snowfall, and it stopped yesterday. Again, since the late Tang Dynasty, more than 200 years, there have been endless wars here, people have fled, and the local indigenous population is not large. Most of the people in the city moved from the interior, and they were mainly from the camp. ”

Fu Bi arched his hand: "Obey the orders of the marshal." ”

Du Zhongxiao said: "Guanwen is polite, a few of us don't have to be restrained when we speak." There is another thing, in the future, the official hall will be on duty here, and the three of us will take turns here. If there is something special and you can't be on duty, you should inform others as soon as possible. ”

Zhang Sheng said: "What does the festival mean, if there is no major event, the three of us don't have to be in the official hall all the time in the future?" ”

Du Zhongxiao said: "Yes, that's exactly the case. There are so many affairs along the way, it is impossible to declare everything to the official office, and there are many affairs that the official office is not in charge of. If there is nothing to do in daily life, in Shengzhou City, it will take turns to govern the Economic Strategy Division, the Pacification Division and the Capital Deployment Division, and one person is on duty here. For matters that are not urgent, the duty officer shall approve the use of seals. Important matters were discussed by the three of them, and after the joint signature, I drew my own charge. ”

Fu Bi and Zhang Sheng said yes.

Du Zhongxiao is to make the Jiedu envoy as the pacification envoy of the river meandering road, and the marshal's mansion has set up five divisions, the economic strategy division, the pacification division, the capital deployment division, the jiedu envoy division and the observation envoy division, collectively known as the five divisions, and the official hall here is actually the five divisions. The Jiedu Envoy and the Observation Envoy are the only names that exist, and the daily affairs are actually attributed to the Metropolitan Deployment Division and the Pacification Envoy Division, and Chen Xiliang and Wen Tong are actually in charge. There doesn't have to be five people in the official hall, as long as one person is on duty. The other two can go to other halls to learn about the specific matters below, and of course they can rest as well.

Du Zhongxiao said again: "According to the arrangement of the imperial court, in the future affairs of Hequ Road, in addition to me can play the imperial court, the rich deputy envoy can also play the imperial court, but it needs to be signed by me." In other words, the responsibility of the rich deputy envoy and the supervisor of the army wanted to explain clearly to the imperial court before he came. ”

Fu Bi arched his hand: "The court really explained this, everything must be obeyed by the court." ”

Du Zhongxiao nodded, and said, "In addition, Deputy Envoy Fu is also the Military Justice Department of this route." All violations of military law in the army are not under the jurisdiction of the Deployment Division, and a separate department is placed in charge of the Fu Deputy Envoy. In principle, there is no separation between the military and the government on this route, but the matter of violating military law is special, and it is inconvenient to set up a separate department, so I have to let the rich deputy envoy take charge of it. The non-commissioned officers trained in the military academies were gradually added to the army, and the personnel of the various armies began to be replenished, and the rich deputy envoys were affected, so as to establish military law as soon as possible. In the future, the commanders of all armed forces can only deal with violations of discipline, but cannot handle violations of military law themselves. ”

Fu Bi was a little puzzled and said, "Jie Shuai, what kind of thing is a violation of discipline?" What kind of thing is a violation of military law? ”

Du Zhongxiao said: "The army has its own regulations, and the deputy envoy took some time to figure it out quickly." Generally speaking, if a small mistake is made in the army, even if it violates discipline, it will be dealt with by the commander in command. Failure to follow the orders of the boss and lack of attention to the usual training are considered disciplinary violations. Violations of military law, such as crimes committed by soldiers against local people, conflicts with local authorities, particularly egregious crimes, and so on, are dealt with by the Department of Military Justice. ”

Fu Bi nodded, roughly understanding the meaning. The Judge Advocate Advocate General's Department manages two major aspects, one is the conflict between the military and the locality, except for minor matters that the two sides mediate by themselves, otherwise the Judge Advocate General's Department is under the control of the Judge Advocate General. There is also a vicious incident in the military, which is also under the jurisdiction of the military justice department.

The establishment of a separate department of military justice is a supporting measure for the abolition of class law in the military. Military affairs, even if the management is a non-commissioned officer, is no longer the final say of the commander-in-chief, and the matter is decided by the Judge Advocate General. As a supervising army, he has a special position in the army and is in charge of this matter.

Du Zhongxiao said: "This will be the arrangement in the future." Looking at the text, I don't know what to think? ”

Fu Bi said: "I first came, everything is according to the orders of the marshal. ”

Du Zhongxiao said: "Okay, after being familiar with the affairs of this road, if you have any opinions on Guanwen, you can find me, you can also find Deputy Envoy Zhang, and of course, you can also find other officials of this road to discuss." The river meandering road is bitter cold in winter, and I can't do anything. These are the months to tidy up and prepare for the coming year. ”

Fu Bi arched his hand: "Jieshuai, I don't know what to do on Hequ Road in the coming year?" Knowing that, it's time to prepare. ”

Du Zhongxiao thought for a while and said, "The first thing is to repair the railway to Juyan County as soon as possible." When the railway arrives there, it overlooks the west of the river in the south and the Western Regions in the west, and there are many articles to do. One more thing, the Khitan side is sharpening its troops and horses, and Chongyuan is gathering an army and is about to enter Hongji in Youzhou. How their war is a major event for this dynasty should be closely watched. It is best that the two Khitan emperors can be protracted and fight for ten or eight years. ”

Fu Bi and Zhang Sheng laughed together: "The festival commander is joking, the two emperors of Khitan stand side by side, if they fight for ten or eight years, it will be difficult to unify." ”

Du Zhongxiao said: "This is an inaccurate thing. According to the news I received, Chongyuan and Hongji imitated our army and cast many artillery. How to fight with artillery, there is no exploration for several years, but I am afraid that it will not be used well. Datong Mansion in the west of Youzhou, Zhongjing Road in the north, only a corner in the northeast, and the forces of Hongji are in an extremely disadvantageous situation. With artillery, the defense takes advantage, and the offense is not easy, so they have to fight. ”

Fu Bi and Zhang Sheng nodded together. Both of them ignored the influence of artillery, according to the influence of the previous internal struggle for the throne within the Khitan, it was generally a small conflict, and the division would not last long after the strong and weak were separated. Now it is different, with artillery, the cavalry field warfare that the Khitan used to be good at may no longer occupy a dominant position, and it is difficult to say when they will divide the victory or defeat.

Fu Bi said: "If the Khitan can't tell the winner, we have built the railway to Juyan County, wouldn't we be able to focus on the Western Regions?" ”

Du Zhongxiao nodded, and sighed again: "That's true, but we don't know much about the Western Regions, so it's difficult to start. A few days ago, the envoys of Yizhou and Gaochang went back, saying that they would send envoys to Beijing to pay tribute in the coming year, but I don't know what happened. meddling in the affairs of the Western Regions, now lacking a grip, things are not easy to do. As soon as the railway arrives in Juyan, it is best for us to extend it to Yizhou. When the railway arrived in Yizhou and occupied the east gate of the Western Regions, things in the Western Regions were much easier. Moreover, it is bordered by Guasha Prefecture in the west, and the party's 30,000 troops are guarding the land west of the river, and they will not be able to sleep. ”

The Hexi Corridor was vast, but the population was small at this time, and the party's strength there was only 30,000, including auxiliaries. Once the Song army entered Yizhou and went around to their rear, the counties of Hexi were almost undefended.
