Specifically, it was to split the administrative areas of the provincial road level in the Song Dynasty, and one road became two or three provinces. The reduction of administrative areas and the reduction of the population under their jurisdiction can directly reduce the work pressure of officials at the provincial level. However, it is much smaller than the number of state capitals, and indirectly reduces the workload of the central government.

This has the added advantage of being smaller and less populous, which can greatly reduce the occurrence of local secession, unless you can unite several surrounding provinces to start a rebellion.

We all know how difficult it is and how unstable it is. Increasing the difficulty is a good trend, and absolute exemption is impossible.

Next, the powers and responsibilities that originally belonged to the central government can be delegated to the provincial administrative organs, so that local officials can effectively manage the local government and no longer be the mouthpiece of the central government.

Next, you can let the locals serve as magistrates with relative confidence, and only the locals will wholeheartedly build their hometowns and think about the well-being of their hometowns.

Eventually, the local officials below the provincial level will be able to gradually change to one or two candidates nominated by the locals themselves, and then the central government will appoint one of them, and gradually return the personnel power to the localities.

At the same time, the central government no longer pays the salaries and benefits of local officials, and has completely become a small government that plans major national affairs and is full-time with foreign affairs, each performing its own duties.

If the entire design could be completed, the position of future official would be less attractive. The responsibility is too great, and the rights are checked and balanced by all parties, so it can't be said that it is angry, anyway, the scenery is no longer there.

In the face of this change, will the whole people fight for the single-plank bridge to grab it? There will inevitably be fewer people, and the number of high-IQ people in this small part of the population will account for a large proportion. Whether it is business or research and development, the income is greater than that of being an official, and if you have more money, you can still enter the career and complete a higher ideal, so why not do it.

"Under the province are cities and counties, below the city are towns, and below the county are villages. Party departments can be established at the provincial level, branches should be set up in cities and counties, and working groups should be stationed in villages and towns, so that the whole country can be covered. ”

After talking thinly, Hong Tao was able to explain the general plan of the small provincial system. Note that it is rough, and if you really want to deduct the details little by little, it will take many days.

"Don't raise your hand, just say it!" As soon as he held up the teacup, intending to accept everyone's bows, Hong Tao had the urge to throw the cup out. This Wang Shi is so annoying, she doesn't say anything about making small moves below all day long, and she even stirs up the applause she deserves.

"According to my father, dividing the road into two or three provinces can reduce local division, but it is easy to divide on the map, but in practice, it is difficult to divide it in the hearts of the local people. For example, my father divided Liangzhou, Ganzhou, Suzhou, Huangzhou, and Mawei City into two provinces, but the people of Mawei City and Huangzhou were in the same vein as Liangzhou, and many family members were also stationed in the two places. The officials of the two provinces are selected from the local area, and they are simply from the same place, and it is easy to collude together. ”

Wang Shi didn't care about the anger in his adoptive father's eyes at all, and stood up and talked eloquently. While talking, he shook his head proudly, and he had a posture that I would be angry with you and I would be angry with you.

However, the question she raised is indeed very insightful, and if this problem is not solved, the small provincial system is equivalent to one less effect, and it is still a very important effect.

"I didn't say that the provincial and municipal governments have military power, and the military power of the whole country is in the hands of the central government, and the army is stationed in the local areas by the central government, and the defense is changed to other places every once in a while. The local government can only have a military establishment, and even the archers and regimental training are subordinate to the local garrison management and training. The financial expenditure of the garrison is allocated by the central government to the localities for the purchase of military supplies nearby. The local garrison and the local government are not related to each other, and are completely independent. ”

Hong Tao used the method of depriving the local government of military power to prevent local secession, in fact, the Song Dynasty did this, but it was not very thorough. It's not that I don't want to be thorough, it's that I can't do it.

Relying on a small number of forbidden troops alone cannot appease the place, because everyone has similar weapons, and if it really fights, the forbidden army will not have an absolute advantage, and if the gap in numbers is too large, the forbidden army will not have a good way.

But the new army is different, and the rabble is against the new army, and ten times the number is also in vain. Hong Tao didn't dare to talk too much at the moment, but it was basically no problem to station two companies in one province.

Border provinces with mixed ethnic groups can be stationed more, and one regiment is enough. The central government can still afford this money, and in peacetime the new army will deter the interior, and in wartime it will be dispatched to the army, and it will not be wasted left and right.

As for whether this will be the same as the forbidden army, causing the problem of soldiers not knowing generals and generals not knowing soldiers, with the emergence of new armies and new weapons, there is no longer a problem.

The combat effectiveness of the army in the era of cold weapons depends entirely on the level of training of soldiers, the degree of formation drills, and the control of generals over the army.

In the era of hot weapons, combat no longer purely relies on formations and physical fitness, and new weapons have narrowed the differences between individual soldiers, and also weakened the role of senior generals in combat, relying more on low-level generals.

As long as the low-level generals are familiar with the soldiers under them, it is basically a way to play for the high-level generals. Low-level generals can follow a team for a long time, anyway, they don't have many troops under them, so they can't just pull three or five hundred people to rebel, that would be too child's play.

“…… The army is stationed in the place, who will protect the capital? Wang Shi must have taken the opportunity to take revenge, one problem was solved, and she immediately proposed a second one.

"Which of you will answer this question? It's not that the father doesn't answer, it's that the question is too unlevel! After two days of discussion, Hong Tao has never had the opportunity to hurt people and laugh, and now he finally got a chance, and now even if Wang Shi admits defeat, he is not happy, and he must be pumped hard to relieve his anger.

"According to Daddy's intentions, government officials have a limited term of office, and they don't have to wait for soldiers to attack others before they give way. It's even more foolish to grab the throne, the emperor is just an ornament, what's the use of robbing it? The power is in the hands of the provincial officials, and it is easy to send it down, but it is difficult to take it back...... But there is a big problem with Daddy's method, when encountering a strong enemy, the court has no power in its hands, and many things will be difficult to do. For example, if the enemy comes from the north, Fujian and Guangnan Zhulu are likely to be unwilling to provide military spending and military resources, how to deal with it at that time? ”

Wang Da also rushed back from Yingli City, but she and Wang Er, Wang Shi, and Zhou Yiri were obviously not all the way, but they were more together with Wang San, Wang Qi, Wang Jiu, Wang Shi, Fu Ji, and the Green Lotus sisters, and they were also together. Compared with others, she was not afraid of Wang Shi, and when she heard Hong Tao's words, she immediately got up and gave an answer.

But she didn't agree with Hong Tao's design 100%, especially the more familiar national defense military. Theoretically, this set of things can solve part of the problem, but it is not perfect, and in her opinion there is a big loophole, a fatal loophole.

"Hey, that's a pretty upscale question. Old ten, see it, don't always think that you are the smartest in the world, your little mind is crooked, learn from your eldest sister. ”

Hong Tao not only wanted to fight Wang Shi, but also had to provoke the relationship between the sisters. If you let them all hug each other, it will be difficult for you to be a father, to be honest, it is already very difficult now.

"......" Even if Wang Shi knew that this was a pit, he couldn't help but fall into it, human nature, no way. She was so high-spirited that she couldn't stand being humiliated in public, and she didn't dare to be angry with her father, so she could only stare at her eldest sister with slanted eyes.

"That's what I think about the question raised by Wang Da, one set of rules obviously can't meet all the requirements, what should I do? It's very simple, add another set. Two sets of rules, one for peacetime and one for wartime. When to switch, this matter will be left to the future government to worry about, and now we are talking about promoting the party, not the state. The meal has to be eaten one bite at a time, and the road has to be walked step by step. Taking one step and seeing three steps is called wisdom, and taking one step and seeing a hundred steps is so ambitious. The responsible persons of the provincial party departments, the national party representatives, and the candidates for the various committees are chosen by yourself, and I do not participate. But the chairman of the party and the chairman of the congress do not need to be elected, and they will work for their father for a few years and then dismiss the meeting! ”

In fact, Hong Tao hated Wang Da even more, and asked what was wrong, but he didn't ask what he was not prepared for. Now there is no shadow of the constitution, and it is useful to talk directly about the constitution in wartime.

But he is the embodiment of an omniscient and omnipotent immortal, and he doesn't know that these three words can't be said casually. Simply bring the topic back to the position of the promotion party, they are all human beings, and there is no one who does not like rights, and with so many rights in front of them, who can care about wartime or not.
