Northern Shaanxi and the trilateral areas have been in war for many years, and while a large number of local people have died and lost, many prefectures and counties in these places also lack state and county magistrates such as governors and county magistrates.

In particular, Yan'an Prefecture in northern Shaanxi, Guyuan Prefecture on three sides, and Xinken District in Ningxia, as well as Lintao Mansion and Gongchang Mansion in Longxi Province that have just been recovered by the official army in the northwest, as well as Qinzhou, Hezhou, Taozhou, Minzhou, Jiezhou, and other prefectures and counties that were entrenched by Mu Suman in the past.

After the war, especially the local Musubarians and bandits, these prefectures and counties were purged with only temporary appointment of some immigration officers.

And none of these so-called immigration officers are from Jinshi, and many of them are not even talented or even children.

It was only because they responded to the imperial court's "Reclamation Order" and brought a group of immigrants from Guanzhong, Hanzhong or the Central Plains that they were temporarily appointed by the Trilateral Governor's Office as the second official of various prefectures and counties.

However, for these immigration officials, most of whom were born as landlords, the governors of the northwest were not at ease.

Whether it was Li Banghua, the Marquis of Dongsheng, the minister of military aircraft, Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of the three sides, Sun Chuanting, the governor of Hezhong, and Hong Chengchou, the governor of Shaanxi, all of them constantly wrote to Emperor Chongzhen, suggesting that Emperor Chongzhen should select officials from Jinshi as soon as possible to serve as state and county officials in Shaanxi, Hezhong, Gansu, Ningxia and other trilateral regions.

On the one hand, these Jinshi-born officials were more loyal to the imperial court.

On the other hand, the arrival of these Jinshi-born officials in the local area is also a kind of promotion for the local cultural and educational undertakings.

After all, whether it is the northern Shaanxi region, the Hezhong region, or especially the Gannan region of Longxi, it was not a place where culture and education flourished before.

Even in most places, such as the Gannan region of Longxi, which had been entrenched by the Musu barbarian population for a long time in the past, the Confucian cultural and educational undertakings were basically blank.

At present, those Musu Manfan Temples that once spread all over Ningxia, Guyuan, Hezhou, Lintao, Tianshui and other prefectures and counties have been burned down by the order of Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of the three sides.

However, whether it is to burn down those temples, demolish them, or reuse them for other purposes, it is not really a recovery of the northwest.

Because, after something like culture has eliminated the old one, there must be something new to fill the gap left by the former.

If the Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism that belong to the Chinese civilization do not fill this gap, then other things will fill this gap.

For example, the Northwest Jesuit Chapter, headed by Condenius, and the Security Corps.

At the beginning, after Condenius took a new group of missionaries and followers to the northwest, he took the official documents of the Military Aircraft Department and the Armament Institute, and finally received a batch of guns and ammunition from Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of the three sides, and pulled up a Jesuit armed security group of more than 500 people.

It was not until Anthony van Diemen, a military commander from Batavia, came to Ningxia with funds sponsored by the Dutch East India Company and with the permission of Emperor Chongzhen to come to Hailadu Fort (later Haiyuan, Ningxia), the forefront of the Catholic Jesuits against the Muslims in China, that the Jesuit Northwest Security Corps finally began to play their role.

In particular, on the issue of clearing and burning down the Musu Manfan Monastery that once spread throughout Ningxia, the Jesuit missionary Condenius and fellow religious radical Anthony Van Dimen led the Jesuit Northwest Security Corps to make great contributions.

The methods used by the Jesuit security team to deal with those hidden Ningxia Musuman, as well as the clergy in Ningxia Musuman, were extremely cruel.

Under the banner of avenging Long Huamin and other Jesuit martyrs in China, they wrapped all the captured Mu Suman clergy one by one in blankets soaked in fierce fire oil and burned them alive in public.

Such things, in Guyuan, Lintao, Tianshui, Hezhou and other places, are often done by those Han people's groups who escaped with their lives in the Musuman Rebellion.

However, for the Ningxia region, which was suppressed before the Musuman Rebellion became bigger, the grudge between the Han people in Shaanxi who immigrated here along the Huangtun reclamation and Musuman was not so deep.

Therefore, the local Han People's League in Ningxia still has more or less good intentions for the Mu Su barbarians who live here, is more tolerant, and is willing to coexist peacefully.

After Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of the three sides, publicly released the "Book of Confession to Mu Suman", Ningxia's Mu Suman was coerced by He Huchen, the chief military officer of Ningxia Town, although he also moved to Hexi in large numbers, but there were still some Mu Suman who lived here and were unwilling to leave.

Some chose to submit to the Ming Dynasty and chose to be loyal to the Ming court.

However, there are still a considerable number of Mu Suman, who are unwilling to move west, choose to hide and escape, and refuse to naturalize after all.

And these Mu Suman, who did not want to leave, and the clergy among them, became the targets of revenge and liquidation by Condinius, the president of the Catholic Society of Jesus in China, and Anthony van Diemen, commander of the Jesuit Northwest Security Mission.

Yuan Chonghuan not only had no opinion on the bloody methods of Condenius and the Jesuit Northwest Security Corps against Ningxia Mu Suman and his imam and other clergy, but was quite supportive and happy to see it come to fruition.

However, Yuan Chonghuan was very dissatisfied with the subsequent private construction of Jesuit churches by missionaries such as Condenius and John Tong in Hailadubao (later Haiyuan, Ningxia).

As early as the end of the third year of Chongzhen, Yuan Chonghuan ordered that the Jesuit missionaries led by Condenius should be forbidden to build a Catholic church in Ningxia, and at the same time, he successively sent secret folds to Emperor Chongzhen, suggesting that the imperial court should send more court officials from Jinshi as soon as possible to serve as officials in the prefectures and counties in the trilateral region, especially as state and county officials.

The prefecture and county school officials in the trilateral areas are easy to handle, and there are quite a few old prisoners and students in the Guozijian in the north and south of Beijing who have no hope of taking the imperial examination, as well as those who have been candidates for the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Officials for many years, who are willing and capable of filling such posts.

However, the state and county parent officials such as the Zhizhou County Order, even if they are relatively remote places, are the territory of the imperial court scholars and civil officials.

Whether it is Yuan Chonghuan or Li Banghua, the Minister of Military Aircraft who is now in charge of the major military affairs in the northwest, these officials who were born as jinshi still hold the opinion that non-jinshi will not be elected, and ask Emperor Chongzhen to appoint more people from Chongzhen's four-year new branch jinshi to the northwest.

In this way, under the influence of various reasons, Huang Zongxi, who was born in the three lists of Chinese style and Jinshi, also became one of the new science and technology scholars who were arranged to serve in the northwest trilateral region.

If it weren't for Liu Zongzhou, the well-known Zhengqing of Dali Temple, who spoke to his disciples in this Chinese discipline and wrote a letter to Cheng Ji, the secretary of the ministry, then according to Huang Zongxi's ranking above the three lists, he would have been arranged to a more remote place.

For example, Chen Yutai, Chen Mingxia, Zhang Cai, and Sun Chun, who are new scholars from the Nanzhili region, were assigned to the real trilateral region by the officials because of the practice that the three ranks of jinshi were all foreign.

Chen Yutai, the champion of Chongzhen for four years in history, not only missed the champion after the palace test this time, but also did not even enter the second class.

On the list of officials appointed by the Ministry of Officials this time, Chen Yutai was assigned to the position of the county commander of Minxian County, Gansu Province, which had just been recovered.

Minzhou Wei, which was originally occupied by the Musu Barbarian Army, was regained by Pan Yunteng's division of the Hanzhong army, and it didn't take long for it to be approved by the imperial court to be changed to Minxian.

Like the ending of Minzhou Wei, Hezhou, Taozhou, Jiezhou, Qinzhou and other places that were originally hereditary commanders or hereditary local officials of the Musu Barbarian family were also successively changed to prefectures, prefectures or counties directly subordinate to the trilateral governors.

The local Musubarian family, after the Musubarian Rebellion, was first passed by the thieves who fled westward, and then by the officials and soldiers who went west, and at the beginning of the fourth year of Chongzhen, it had long been uprooted, clean, and there was nothing left of the original family power.

At this time, a large number of positions were naturally vacated, even if Yuan Chonghuan did not make suggestions, even if Emperor Chongzhen did not say hello, the Ministry of Officials would arrange a large number of new scholars from Chongzhen for four years to serve in this place.

In addition to Chen Yutai, this time Chen Mingxia, a famous man from Jiangnan who was also born in the third list of jinshi, was also arranged to serve in the northwest, but he was a Taozhou magistrate who was slightly inferior to the county order.

The pusher is also a positive seventh grade, but he is the second official in the state, and he is not as powerful as the county order to govern a county.

Of course, this is also the plan that Emperor Chongzhen instructed to revis.

Because although this Chen Mingxia has a lot of fame in Jiangnan Shilin, he also has a bit of literary talent, and in the original history, he also had a high school of Chongzhen for 16 years to explore flowers, but his integrity and character are really not very good, and he is also a good person who comes to break through and clear up.

For such a person, even if he is allowed to be a county magistrate in a remote northwest area, now this Chongzhen Emperor can't really rest assured, and in the end, he can only let him be a Taozhou magistrate.

At the same time, Zhang Pu's younger brother Zhang Cai and Zhang Pu's friends, Sun Chun and Li Wen, who were the figures of the Restoration Society in history, were also on the list of the three Jinshi after the four-year palace examination in Chongzhen, and this time, they were naturally arranged to the northwest in one go.

Although Li Wen, who has tried and failed many times in history, has a good character, in Chongzhen's four-year spring expansion plan, she won the Jinshi as she wished, and this time she was awarded the Yanchuan County Order of Yan'an Prefecture, Northern Shaanxi.

And Sun Chun, who was not very good in history, was arranged to be a pusher in the Hezhou Mansion that had just been recovered!

Now outside the Jishi Pass in front of Hezhou Mansion is the place where the Great Western thief Zhang Xianzhong is entrenched, and near Hezhou City is Lanzhou City, where Gao Yingxiang's department is entrenched.

He, as a magistrate, is directly responsible for the arrest of thieves in the region, and arranging him there is, of course, a test, and whether he can stand up and not be held accountable depends on his creation.

Zhang Pu's younger brother Zhang Cai, similar to Chen Mingxia, Sun Chun and other Jiangnan scholars, was also awarded the "important task" of the newly reformed Guyuan Mansion.
