"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1283
Chen Zi'ang summoned Qin An, Chief of Political Affairs, and Li Qiye, Chief of Military Affairs alone, not just to inquire about the assassination incident.
Seeing that both Li Qiye and Qin An understood what he meant, Chen Ziang also ended the topic in a timely manner.
After all, with Li Qiye's intelligence, he naturally knew how to deal with this matter. It was nothing more than suppressing the old ministers who had defected from the previous dynasty and preparing for the cake.
If Qin An, the chief minister of state affairs, wants to avoid being suppressed, he will definitely cooperate with Li Qiye actively to avoid the truth.
"The successive years of wars have resulted in thousands of miles of wilderness in the provinces and counties of the empire. Ten rooms are empty. Seeing that countless people are displaced at dawn and have no food to eat. As my people, I also have trouble sleeping and eating."
After Chen Ziang picked up his teacup and took a sip of the tea, he officially started his second topic.
"Your Majesty cares about the people, this is the fortune of the empire and the people."
Qin An, the chief minister of state affairs, also took advantage of the situation to flatter him. After all, everyone likes to hear good words, and Chen Ziang is no exception.
"As the chief executive officer of the empire, Mr. Qin has a good plan to restore people's livelihood?"
Chen Ziang was praised by Qin An, and he also smiled on his face. He turned his eyes to Qin An and asked.
After a little hesitation, Qin An replied: "Since Your Majesty asked, then I dare to speak out. If there are mistakes, please don't blame Your Majesty."
Chen Ziang waved his hands and said, "But it's okay to say."
"If the empire wants to quickly restore people's livelihood, there are two top priorities."
"First, the imperial court quickly dispatched troops to various provinces and counties to thoroughly wipe out the remnants of the previous dynasty, bandits and bandits, in order to stabilize the local order."
"Secondly, the imperial court should continue to implement the New Deal, measure the country's acres of land, re-register the population, and at the same time lighten the tax and reduce the burden on the people."
As the Chief of Political Affairs, Qin An is naturally quite familiar with the situation in various provinces across the country, and pointed out the current problems to the point.
Although the Qinghe Army now controls various provinces in name, it is actually only able to control some large cities and market towns, and its rule over rural areas is quite weak.
The most important reason is that the Qinghe Army's foundation is too weak, swallowing so many provinces and regions in a short period of time, and the main force of the army has been fighting outside for a long time, so many places have not been fully digested.
Therefore, although there are only two simple suggestions from Qin An, they are also urgent matters at present.
If the order in various places cannot be quickly stabilized and the land cannot be distributed to the people, the situation will get worse.
After all, people are more realistic, life safety is not guaranteed, and there are no real benefits such as fields, so why should the people support the newly established empire?
"That's right, these two things must be resolved as soon as possible."
After Qin An finished speaking, Chen Ziang also nodded in agreement, because this is a prerequisite for restoring people's livelihood.
As long as the local order is restored and the people have land, even if the court does nothing, the people will spontaneously settle down and work hard, instead of fleeing everywhere.
"It's just that I think there are two more important things to do before completing these two things." Chen Ziang said.
"What does His Majesty mean?"
Li Qiye and Qin An are also extremely puzzled, what else is important?
"The first is to reorganize the various departments of the imperial court, to review and sort out the ranks of officials at all levels, and to reorganize the local government affairs governments at all levels. Only by establishing an efficient and powerful government affairs government can the imperial court be well implemented. The command."
The reason why Chen Ziang wanted to bring this matter up was because of his own considerations.
That's because their Qinghe army has a weak foundation and has occupied a large number of prefectures and counties in a very short period of time.
These prefectures and counties saw the Qinghe army coming, and the officials of the previous dynasty directly opened their doors and surrendered, or directly came to a temporary uprising.
The Qinghe army did not have enough manpower to be stationed in various prefectures and counties, and the army has been fighting all the time, so they could not stay for long.
Therefore, the simple and rude method was adopted at that time, that is, in order to stabilize the local area, the local officials who had surrendered were directly appointed to continue to manage the local area.
In some core areas, the Qinghe Army only sent a fewA receiving team composed of individuals will go, but most of the people below will choose the original people.
This is why the bandits and the remnants of the former dynasty have been making waves in various places, and it is difficult for the security forces to suppress it. The main reason is that many people in the government affairs government and those bandits and remnants of the previous dynasty actually secretly communicated with the music.
Therefore, the first item proposed by Chen Ziang is to rectify the various departments of the imperial court and the local government.
Only by establishing a strong executive organization can his orders be conveyed and executed.
If the executive agencies of governments at all levels are not rectified, even if there are orders from above, it will be difficult to implement them even if the people below obey them.
And now the imperial court is actually a mess in many places. Although the empire has been established, many things are still the same as in wartime.
Currently, the Southeast Government, the Southwest Government, the Eastern Government, the Central Government, and the Northern Government operate independently, without a unified superior.
? Although Qin An is the chief of the government affairs office, and nominally governs the various government affairs governments under him, in fact there is no coordinating department and agency.
Therefore, Chen Ziang needs to set up various departments of the imperial court at the upper levels of the various government affairs governments. The powers and responsibilities of the central departments are clear, and the local departments can also be clear and able to do things effectively.
"Lord Qin, you are responsible for this matter. Regarding the reorganization and rectification of various departments of the imperial court and local departments, you should draw up a plan and report it to me as soon as possible."
As the emperor of the empire, Chen Zi'ang couldn't do everything by himself, so he handed over the matter to Qin An, Chief of Political Affairs, and asked him to draw up a plan.
"The second thing is to reward the meritorious soldiers. After all, the brothers fought north and south and fought bloody battles. Now that the battle is over, they should be rewarded."
The second thing Chen Ziang said was that he hoped to stabilize the morale of the army and redistribute internal power through rewards.
The army is the biggest support and backing of the empire. If the meritorious service is not rewarded or punished, it will chill people's hearts and make the empire lose its credibility.
Next, the empire needs the army to go to various places to conquer those bandits and rogues, so it also needs to boost morale through a reward, and at the same time let the soldiers at all levels work harder.
If it was just now that Chen Ziang wanted to reorganize the central and local departments of the imperial court, he wanted to establish a strong executive organization, and the award was another major event to stabilize the morale of the army.
"Qiye, you are responsible for how to award the rewards. You should draw up a plan and list as soon as possible."
Li Qiye, as the chief of military affairs and chief of staff, has an overview of all military affairs, and the credit book is also in his hands, so Chen Ziang entrusted Li Qiye with drawing up the reward plan and list.
Li Qiye saw that Chen Ziang entrusted him with such an important matter, while feeling the trust, he also felt heavy pressure.
You must know that awarding a reward is not a joke, but the most difficult thing, considering all aspects of things, and it may offend a large number of generals who hold heavy troops.
Chen Ziang arranged the two things, but he got out of the world instead. Anyway, no matter the department reorganization or the award, even if it caused public outrage, someone would take the blame, and no one would blame him on Chen Ziang. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
