Chapter 142: Tear down and rebuild

After the banquet of the second chat. It is under the jurisdiction of Zhizhou. Baoan Zhou City is divided into two corners and six squares, in the Cheng'en Fang, Yonghe Fang, and Ying'en Fang in the corner of the city, the dog part of the residence is a military household. In the Shishanfang, Guangxiaofang, and Yongfengfang in the corner of the city, most of the residents are private households.

On the part of the army, there were 1,357 officers and men, including 368 horses and mules. In terms of weapons, except for knives, guns, shields and spears. There are five iron cannons of the invincible general of Shenwei in Baoan Zhou City, forty pairs of copper and iron Franc machines, eighty-five small copper cannons and small iron cannons, and a large number of tiger squat cannons. Mouth cannons, etc.

This is the situation of the state city alone, in addition to the five forts, Shunxiang fort, Zhangjiabao and other large forts registered.

On the bright side, the situation in the forts is still optimistic. But who knows what the actual situation is. Ming officials have always been very good at making false accounts. Just Shunxiangbao, the situation he saw when he took office was completely different from the registration in the book.

Compared with the hall of the Integrity Mansion in the Thousand Households of Shunxiang Fort, the hall of the Integrity Mansion is much wider and more luxurious, and in the lobby, a group of military attachΓ©s and generals from Baoan Prefecture gathered together, and the new Ethics Lord was deliberating, and everyone cheered up and tried their best to express themselves.

Zhang Gui, the official of the state city management tun, took the tuntian document and reported to Wang Dou: "My lord, the state city has been sown in autumn two months ago, and there are more than 300 hectares of tuntian land, all of which are planted with wheat grain, and by the summer of next year, the tun grain can be collected. ”

Wang Dou nodded, he knew that the number of tuntian fields and the number of military households in the state city were definitely not true. But he just kept quiet.

Tian Changguo, the general manager of Guanzhou City, when he encountered something serious, he seemed to be the one who seemed to be awake and did not wake up, he yawned and tried his best to lift his spirits. He said to Wang Dou: "My lord, there are 1,357 officers and soldiers in our state city, of which 977 are officers and soldiers, and the rest are all miscellaneous officers and soldiers. The military roster is here, do you want to take a look? ”

Wang Dou took the military register, he was noncommittal, but said: "The sergeant drill is related to the safety and security of our state city, Tian Qianzong, Chi General, Huang General, you recruit sergeants, and this officer must personally inspect and drill the parade horses." ”

He said to Zheng Yu, the magistrate: "Zheng Zhenfu." You are responsible for supervising the conduct of military discipline, half an hour later. The shortage was as high as more than 400 people, and Wang Dou felt that many of them were not officials and soldiers in the state city, but were temporarily drawn from the military households to fill the number.

Wang Dou was silent, Ji Dengshan and Huang Xianen were uneasy, and Qian Zongtian Changguo felt the atmosphere in the field, and he didn't dare to yawn loudly.

Half a "second bucket road!" , how can the officers and soldiers of the state city be so short! Big. Huang Xianen, the general manager, nodded and said, "My lord." There is a shortage of pay in the army, the sergeants are constantly fleeing, and there is no way to get off the ranks. ”

Wang Doudao: "The shortage in the army, why don't you make up for it from the military households?" ”

Ji Dengshan kept looking at Wang Dou, and at this time he said: "My lord Mingjian, since the year of Xuande, the military households of the security state guard have fled year after year, and if they make up for the surplus from the military households, I am afraid that Lord Zhang's side of the Tuntian manpower is insufficient."

Wang Dou was silent, looking at the old soldiers on the teaching ground, for a long time, he said, "No need to read, let the sergeants go back to the camp." ”

I didn't expect to pass the test so easily, Ji Dengshan and Huang Xianen were surprised, they glanced at Zheng Yu, the magistrate, and Zheng Yu's gloomy face also showed a smile. After that, although several people were respectful to Wang Dou, they unconsciously showed a contemptuous look.

Only Chisoda Masakoku returned to wanting to fall asleep.

"The government affairs of the state and city are so corrupt that there are more than 1,000 officers and soldiers, and none of them are available."

A light like a bean, in the mansion of the integrity officer, Wang Dou let out a long sigh.

During the day, he inspected all parts of the state city, where the defense was extremely lax, the barracks and barracks discipline system was almost absent, and there were also those weapons, not to mention that the number of stocks did not match the number on the book, even in terms of quality, which made people very worried.

In addition to the advanced artillery of the Ming Dynasty, some of the weapons used by the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were allocated by the Ministry of Industry, and some were made by the guards themselves.

Even horses can be bought for leisure, and with a monthly payment of hundreds of dollars, they can be pulled to engage in other livelihoods.

There is a shortage of sergeants in the church today, except for some of them who are fugitive sergeants, most of them are this kind of idle people, many of whom have not seen each other for months and do not know where they have gone. Because there are too many of them. Although Ji Dengshan and others temporarily pulled a large number of tunding to make up for the number, it was still far from enough to make up for this shortcoming.

From Zhang Gui's mouth, Wang Dou felt his full of complaints, and Zhang Gui was the official of the state city. Due to the large number of generals occupying Tuntian Dingkou. The amount of food he paid every year could not meet the requirements of the striker, and there was no chance of promotion, and Zhang Gui was already full of resentment against his colleagues in the city.

However, in the past, he was weak in the state city, but now that he has an old acquaintance like Wang Dou, he took the opportunity to come to take refuge. His special visit tonight was the result of careful consideration. When he said such things to Wang Dou, he was already determined to stand on Wang Dou's side. If his words leak out at all, unless Wang Dou takes care of him, he will have no place in the state city.

Wang Dou looked at him: "Lao Zhang, you are familiar with this place in Zhoucheng, and in the future, I will have to rely on you." Zhang Gui was overjoyed, Wang Dou said such words. He regarded him as a confidant, and he knelt down and kowtowed: "I am willing to die for my lord, and I will go to the soup and fire." ”

Wang Dou helped him up, and after Zhang Gui sat down happily, Wang Dou pondered for a long time and said: "The state city is so corrupted, there is no way to return to the sky, and the only way to do it is to tear it down and rebuild!" But first, I had to get a full picture of what's going on inside and outside the city. Lao Zhang, these days, you will take me to walk outside the city, and after detailed consideration, I will make a decision. ”
