One hundred and six The Way of the General
One Hundred and Six Generals
After hearing Fang Li's invitation, Wu Qi laughed: "Haha... Thank you Mr. Tang for your love. How could you be so unconventional? You are a person who is treacherous in Qin and Chu?"
Fang Li also responded with a loud laugh: "I also know that General Wu Qi is a loyal and righteous man, so I especially talk about each other!"
Although it is not surprising that Qin and Qin are used to it these days, most people will change their families after being neglected or even persecuted. With Wu Qi's mind, they will naturally not change jobs for no reason. Even if they want to abandon Lu and return to Tang, they will need an opportunity.

What's more, the Lu State is still much stronger than the Tang State. The country has a population of 2.8 million and an army of 150,000. It is also one of the Duke States. It has rich resources, fertile water and soil, facing the sea in the southeast, and has a superior geographical location.
These conditions were not comparable to the Tang Kingdom, which had just been established and had not been recognized by the Zhou royal family and various princes. Moreover, Wu Qi had developed well. He had been appointed as the lieutenant general after only about half a year of joining the Lu Kingdom, and was considered to be a success.
I think anyone with a little IQ would not take the risk of changing jobs, let alone Wu Qi, a handsome guy with a far-scheming attitude. Fang Li just joked with Wu Qi with a try-and-see attitude, and did not have any extravagant expectations for this.
But there is another saying, "Although the famous flower has its own master, I will loosen the soil." As long as I persist in my efforts, I believe that the flower of Wu Qi, the famous general, will sooner or later fall into the Tang Dynasty's home.
Wu Qi ordered his entourage to bring a bamboo slip and solemnly hand it over to Fang Li: "Duke Tang, this is a congratulatory letter sent by our Duke Lu. He recognizes the sovereignty and status of the Tang State, and is willing to establish diplomatic relations with the Tang State and have friendly exchanges!"
Fang Li took the bamboo slip and browsed it carefully, nodded and said, "Thank you for your kindness, I will reply to the letter and thank you in person. I also asked General Wu to say a few good words to me after returning to China. Tang State is willing to become an ally with Lu State, mutual benefit and common development."
Fang Li finished greetings with the envoys of the two countries, and the auspicious time was almost the same. Under the auspiciousness of Chen Deng, the ceremony of ascension to the throne officially began.
Fang Lixian led all civil and military officials to burn incense and pray in the square outside the Danfeng Hall, worshiping the heaven and earth, and knelt three times and nine times to prove the orthodox status of the Tang Kingdom. Fang Li returned to Danyang Hall to receive worship from his ministers.
"The lord is here, please accept the minister and wait for a bow!"
The worship sounded like spring thunder in the hall. Under Zhou Yu and Xun Yu, all civil and military officials held tablets in their hands and bowed to Fang Li, who was above them.
Fang Li sat on a gold-inlaid chair and accepted the worship of all civil and military officials. He reached out and summoned: "The family of all the ministers is stable!"
After the civil and military salutes, Fang Li glanced around the ministers at his feet with his majestic and domineering eyes and said loudly: "Your families, now our Tang Dynasty has just been established, and everything is in trouble. The most urgent task is to reform the administration. After a period of careful consideration, I decided to implement the three provinces and six ministries system..."
"Three provinces and six ministries?"
Almost all the civil and military officials in the court heard this word for the first time, and they all aroused curiosity, and they all pricked up their ears and listened attentively.
"The so-called three provinces are the Shangshu Province, the Secretariat, and the Menxia Province; the Secretariat was responsible for drafting edicts and issuing edicts, and the highest official was the Secretariat. The Menxia Province was responsible for reviewing political orders, refuting and correcting errors, and reporting negligences, and the highest official was the Shizhong.
The Shangshu Province was responsible for implementing the imperial decrees and promoting national policies. The chief was the Shangshu Order, and one of the left and right Shangshu Pushe, and he commanded six ministries. In short, it was the "Zhongshu to obtain the orders, the subordinates sealed the refutations, and the Shangshu followed it to ", and the three provinces cooperated together to maintain the Tang Dynasty's country!"
The three provincial ministers restricted each other, had clear division of labor, and the efficiency was far higher than the bureaucratic system of various vassal states. Han Fei and Wu Qi stood below and listened to Fang Li's talk, and couldn't help but nodded frequently, and secretly exclaimed in their hearts: "Mr. Tang is indeed ingenious and versatile. He is not only proficient in military tactics, but also good at governing the country. He is really a genius who can be literary and military!"
The complete feudal system of the Three Provinces and Six Ministry system cannot be thought of with a slap in the blink of an eye. It was because the Chinese feudal society gradually took shape after thousands of years of development. The organizational rigor and integrity were enough to shock the world. Fang Li believed that as long as he spit it out of his mouth, he could shock Han Fei and Wu Qi, which made them look at each other with admiration, so he talked endlessly and long.
"The Secretariat Province has six ministries, namely the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of Works. Each ministries is the chief minister of the Secretariat, and has several ministers and doctors.
Among them, the Ministry of Personnel is responsible for the appointment and removal of officials, promotion of personnel, selection of talents, and recommendation of talents. The Ministry of War is responsible for recruiting soldiers, forging armor, training horses, and preparing war materials. The Ministry of Rites is responsible for national sacrifices, rules and regulations, setting up schools, recruiting imperial examinations, and receiving envoys.
The Ministry of Revenue is responsible for national taxation, population and household registration, land in the world, and fiscal revenue and expenditure. The Ministry of Justice is responsible for the criminal prisons, lawsuits, formulating criminal laws, punishing evil and promoting good. The Ministry of Works is responsible for national engineering, palace construction, city site selection, opening mountains and roads, water conservancy and military farming, etc.
If the "three-provincial system" ensures that power is concentrated in the hands of the monarch, then the six ministries are the essence of this system, truly achieving clear division of labor and performing their own duties, greatly improving the efficiency of the court and reducing the possibility of monopolizing power.
When the ministers heard this, they could no longer control the roar of respect. Even Xun Yu was impressed and asked himself that he could never design such efficient and strict bureaucratic system in a short period of time. They bowed and praised him. "The lord is very talented and well-planned, and I am deeply impressed! Why not use this to achieve success?"
Han Fei was at this moment in his heart. He admired Fang Li's political talent and was deeply worried about South Korea. It seems that the rise of Tang State was by no means accidental, but inevitable!
This Fang Bofu is not only a general who is proficient in military tactics and good at utilizing people, but a resourceful and strategic genius. He can both get on a horse and wield a spear and dismount the horse to govern the country. The future of the Tang Kingdom will definitely be limitless. It may be only a matter of time before it surpasses South Korea!
"It seems that I underestimated this Fang Bofu at the beginning. This guy is such a genius. If Tang has such a hero, I am afraid it will soon rise!"
Wu Qi was mixed with the ministers and felt deeply moved, and vaguely regretted his decision, "Ah... When I met Fang Li, he was just a general. If I followed him at that time, I was afraid that he would be more than one person than ten thousand people at this moment? What a pity... In the future, I will try my best to urge Lu Tang to establish a good relationship and find a way out for myself!"
After the ministers finished praising him, Fang Li continued: "Now at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there is a shortage of talents. I am in line with the principle of preferring to be insignificant than to be insignificant, so I can only arrange some officials first, and other positions are temporarily vacant. When there are many talents in the future, I will choose the virtuous and the capable."
"What the lord said is extremely true!" The ministers agreed in unison.
Fang Li straightened his waist, cleared his throat, and said in a solemn voice: "I decided to appoint Xun Wenruo as the Secretary of the Republic of China, commanded the six ministries, and took charge of the government affairs. When I went to war, I decided on state affairs for me and led the ministers."
"Thank you for your respect. Yu will be dull and dull, and you will die!" Xun Yu stepped forward, and with a solemn expression, he felt the pressure on his shoulders more than Honor.
Fang Li glanced at Chen Deng: "Chen Yuanlong was very erotic and keen. I decided to appoint you as the Minister of Rites to be responsible for the ceremonies, sacrifices, diplomacy and other matters of our Tang Dynasty."
"Thank you lord, and Deng will definitely live up to his mission!" Chen Deng gave up on his post, but he wanted to be the Minister of Personnel or the Minister of Revenue.
"Ming Zhiqi served in the Yu Kingdom for twenty years, worked diligently, performed her duties conscientiously, and was loyal to others. I decided to appoint you as the Minister of Revenue, in charge of the money, grain, land and population of the Tang Dynasty." Fang Li's eyes fell on Gong Zhiqi and announced his appointment loudly.
Gong Zhiqi hurriedly held the tablet and came out to express his gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Tang, for your respect. I will devote myself to your whole life and live up to my entrustedness!"
Fang Li looked at Liu Ye: "Liu Ziyang is unique ingenuity and is good at invention. I decided to appoint you as the Minister of Works as the Minister of the Ministry of War. In addition to manufacturing civilian tools, you must also assist the Ministry of War in developing various combat equipment and enhancing the military strength of our Tang Dynasty."
"I am obeying the lord's instructions, and I must do my best to sleep day and night!" Liu Ye made a comeback with a look of ancient wells.
Fang Li finally looked at Shen Pei: "Shen Zhengnan is upright and jealous of evil, so I decided to appoint you as the Minister of Justice. However, my Tang Dynasty lacks talents, and local security is temporarily under the jurisdiction of local officials, so Shen Zhengnan does not have to take office in Xingyang. You have to go to Pinglu to take charge, manage the local area, recruit soldiers, and provide support to the two front lines of Chiyang and Jiangguan."
The examination and compliment were given to the list of thanks: "I obey the order!"
These were the civil servants under Fang Li who could stand alone. After appointing the Secretary of the State, he also enthroned several ministers and doctors, and asked them to temporarily serve in various departments to ensure the normal operation of the imperial institutions.
Then it was announced that the Tang Dynasty would be temporarily divided into three counties, namely Xingyang County, Henei County, Pinglu County, the prefect of Xingyang County was also served by Xun Yu, the prefect of Henei County was served by local Youli, and Pinglu County was managed by Shen Pei.
After arranging the civil servants, Fang Li introduced the Han Dynasty's military general system and announced that the highest general in the future of the Tang Dynasty would be the general, with three cavalry, namely the cavalry, the chariot, and the cavalry. Then, the four sects, four towns, four anthony, four anthony, four anthony, four anthony, four anthony, four anthony, four anthony, and four anthony, all of which belong to the senior generals of the Tang Dynasty. As for the side generals, the Yamen General, and the minor generals, these generals who will attack will not need to be proposed in the court.
"Zhou Gongjin is ingenious and has complete strategies. He led the Tang army to defeat the Jin enemy repeatedly. I decided to enthrone Zhou Yu as a general and also serve as the Minister of War!" Fang Li straightened his body and announced the appointment of the first military general.
Fang Li knew that civil officials were different from military generals. Civil officials must be in place in one step and give them the power to govern in order to let go of their hands and feet.
But the generals must proceed step by step and let them exchange their titles for their merits. As there is a saying that goes, " Raising a soldier is like feeding an eagle. If you are full, you will fly away. If you are hungry, you will eat your master." The generals must be rewarded with just the right amount, and you will not be hungry even if you are full. This is the way of a smart imperial general.
