The World of Yellow Sky

The collapse of the Han Empire was because the internal problems reached the upper limit and finally all broke out in time.

The establishment of a country requires the struggle of millions, even tens of millions, and hundreds of millions of people, but the collapse of a country is only a blink of an eye.

"The peaks and mountains are like gatherings, the waves are like fury, and the mountains and rivers are like Tongguan Road."

"Looking at Xidu, I hesitate."

"Where the sad Qin and Han scriptures traveled, thousands of palaces and palaces have been turned into dirt."

"Prosperity, the people suffer; death, the people suffer."

Xu An looked at the tall and tall Ying Tianfu in the distance, and remembered that poem that was passed down in later generations.

Now the country needs a supervisory organization to manage and rectify. Power must have means of restriction, otherwise power will become an uncontrolled beast.

Chapter 918 Customization

Yingtian Mansion and Xuanzheng Hall.

The golden morning light penetrated the clouds in the sky and sprinkled on the roof of Yingtian Mansion's palace, coating it with a rather dazzling shell.

The rays of light reflect each other, and the sunlight is refracted by the bricks and tiles, diverging towards the four directions

The glittering shell and pearl palace, Qi Zhenzhen's green tiles and vermilion scorpions.The wide and generous curtains are embroidered into lattices, and the beams are painted withered buildings by Yu Weiwei.

The palace is majestic, the attic is towering, and one after another is fully armed, with burqas and belts, and the tall and majestic Taiping Guards will stand with their halberds.

Under the eaves of the corridor, next to the beams and pillars made of elegantly textured apricot wood, one after another the yellow angels in sutra robes stand with swords.

They kept their eyes fixed on each other, staring straight ahead, motionless, like pines and cypresses in the mountains, with a stern and murderous aura blowing towards them.

In Yingtian Mansion, the melodious and majestic sound of the Great Ming Bell was accompanied by the sound of the Huangtian War Drum in the Sifang Gate Tower, echoing up and down among the numerous palace gates and city walls in Yingtian Mansion.

In the empty and spacious Xuanzheng Hall, thousands of officials are separated in the hall of Xuanzheng Hall.

Xuanzheng Hall was the largest palace built by Xiao He when he built Chang'an City. It was also the main hall of Weiyang Palace and the hall of the court meeting.

Thousands of people entered the hall, and it became a dense mass of darkness, but it still didn't feel crowded.

All officials above the sixth rank in Beijing are called court officials, and they are eligible to enter the palace with dental cards.

Xu An, the court system, has not been abolished.

If you want to control the country, manage the country, and develop the country, you cannot do without the coordination between the various governments and ministries, and you cannot do without the guidance of a correct program.

To formulate good policies, implement administrative orders, and understand what is happening in the country and the situation in various places, it is far from enough to rely solely on the secret service.

The court system must continue to be implemented at this stage. Although there is no court system in later generations, there are still various meetings.

In the city of Chang'an alone, there are more than 40 people, 6 troops stationed, ten workshops, and various institutions under the three government and six ministries.

At this time, in the Xuanzheng Hall, the civil and military officials in Chang'an City of the Ming Court stood in a dense crowd, and the team even extended to the outside of the hall.

Yan Zhong is full of white hair, wearing a Yuqing hibiscus crown and a purple robe, standing at the head of the civil servants.

Gong Du was dressed in military uniform, covered with a purple robe, and stood in front of all the generals.

The system of three governments and six ministries is the political system implemented by the central government of Ming court today.

The Zhongshu government is in charge of the government and manages the people's livelihood affairs.

The main army of the Chinese Army Mansion is in charge of military expeditions.

The main road of Zhongdaofu governs everything in the pipeline.

The chief officials of the three mansions are at the same level, and they are all of the second rank, and there is no distinction between upper and lower.

The six ministries are the Ministry of Law, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, and the Privy Council.

There have been some changes in the authority and ownership among the six ministries.

The Ministry of Law and the Ministry of Officials were originally independent of the three governments and were not subject to their jurisdiction and restraint, but were managed by the cabinet.

As for the cabinet at that time, as a staff organization, Xu An only proposed a framework, implemented it temporarily, and put it forward first. The cabinet did not have much power.

The chief officials of the Ministry of Law and the Ministry of Officials, Wei Lv and Yang Wei, both came from yellow angels. In fact, the power of the Ministry of Law and the Ministry of Officials has always been firmly held by Xu An.

Judicial power, personnel power, and military power, these three powers, Xu An has always firmly grasped in his hands, and never let anyone else go.

But this time Xu An is going to make a change, and put the Ministry of Law and the Ministry of Officials under the Zhongdao Mansion.

The Privy Council is still under the control of the Zhongjunfu, and the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Rites are still under the management of the Zhongshufu.

The current provisional court system is one regular court every three days and one big court in one month.

In addition, the Dachaohui will also be held on the day when the vassals and vassals come to pay tribute, and it will also be held once before some important festivals during special periods and days, such as New Years and holidays.

The scale of the Chang Dynasty is small, and generals and officials with a rank above the fourth rank need to participate.

The generals of the fourth rank are heavy-ranked generals, and the civil servants above the fourth rank are all director-level ones.

The scale of the Dachaohui is much larger than that of the Changchao, and now officials, generals and schools above the sixth rank are eligible to participate.

Changchao belongs to the nature of daily official business, while Dachaohui belongs to the nature of etiquette and celebration.

The purpose of the Great Court Meeting is only to demonstrate the country's prestige, and the documents on the Great Court Meeting are all prepared in advance, and there will be no disputes.

The things read out at the Great Court Assembly are all things that have been drawn up, the read out orders, edicts, not deliberations.

On the Xuanzheng Hall, the nine banners of the sun, the moon, and the stars stand on it, the sun flag is in the middle, and the other eight banners are separated on the left and right.

On Majesty Dan, Xu An wore a Taiqing fishtail crown on his head and a ocher-yellow Taoist robe, and sat on the purple seat with his front full.

Xu An looked down slightly, scanning the generals and officials below.

Inside the Xuanzheng Hall, all the military generals were wearing military uniforms and iron crowns.

The administrative officials of the six ministries and 24 divisions of the three governments are all wearing dark clothes, and the colors of the clothes are also different according to the grade, and the crowns and hats on their heads are also slightly different. According to the nine-rank classification system, officials are divided into nine ranks and eighteen ranks.

After officials and generals take office, they will distribute two sets of dresses

From the first rank to the second rank, they wear purple clothes.

The third to fourth ranks wear scarlet clothes.

Rank five to six, wear blue clothes.

From the seventh rank to the ninth rank, all wear green clothes.

Military generals are transformed from the original military uniforms, called "military uniforms".

The robes of civil servants still maintained the old appearance of the former Han Dynasty, but the color was changed, Xu An did not make too many changes.

Wearing a purple robe, Xu You stood under Majesty Dan. He looked at the edict in his hand, stood facing the crowd, and read out the contents of the edict.

Xu You's voice was full of spirit, and the ingenious design of the Xuanzheng Hall allowed Xu You's voice to be clearly heard by everyone in the hall.

What Xu You is reading out now is the deployment of the army, as well as the change of the defense area.

Now that the world is stable and the Han court has been destroyed, the original military region setting naturally needs to be changed.

For example, the Badong Military Region was once established to restrict Jingzhou, and the main military forces were concentrated in Baidi City and Jiangguan.

Now Jingzhou has surrendered, and the cities have been turned into military management one after another. Jingzhou's naval warships have either been scuttled or transformed into ordinary civilian transport ships.

Naturally, the province as a barrier cannot slack off, and must still maintain sufficient weapons to deal with all kinds of unexpected situations that may occur.

However, there is peace in the country, and in some places it is also necessary to put horses on Nanshan and store knives and guns in storage.

Jingzhou and Yizhou, as introspection, naturally cannot keep so many warships. Letting the inland provinces keep warships will undoubtedly do more harm than good.

Not only does it pay high maintenance costs, but it also has no military benefits, and there is even a hidden danger of rebellion.

The Badong Military Region, Taihang Military Region and other military regions were abolished, and there were no longer any military regions in the fourteen prefectures in the interior.

The army in the inland provinces has planned to reduce the number of troops, and the elite are temporarily incorporated into the direct-controlled army, while ordinary soldiers are used as garrison troops and gradually retreat to the second line.

Since the period of Taiping Dao, Xu An has always implemented the form of streamlining troops and simplifying administration. He gathers all the elites into the direct administration and leads them himself. Only the necessary garrison troops are left in various places, and at the same time, they use troops to assist in the defense.

The military garrison troops of the Ming court were not the kind of military households that could not be separated from the later generations of Zhu Min, but ordinary peasant households who received military training.

Operations mainly rely on local garrisons and direct-controlled troops.

In addition to defending the Chang'an area, the direct-controlled army is responsible for foreign warfare. Sometimes Xu An will send generals to lead part of the army to garrison in a certain place.

When Bingzhou was occupied, in order to deal with Xianbei's threat, Xu An ordered Li De to lead the Duliao battalion northward to station in Wuyuan County to guard against Xianbei.

Before fighting in the Western Regions, Xu An also sent Zhang Liao to lead the Wuxiang Battalion to assist the Western Regions.

The Liao army is out all the year round, but in fact it is still under the direct control of the army.

Now the direct-controlled army and cavalry have six battalions and two guards.

The six battalions are: Xiaoqi, Wuxiang, Bingzhou, Shanggu, Duliao, and Xiliang, each with 5000 people, a total of more than [-] people.

The two guards are: Tengxiang and Taiping. The Tengxiang Guard currently has 3000 people, and the Taiping Guard has more than [-] people, totaling more than [-] people.

The infantry has three armies, one regiment and one city.

The three armies and one regiment refer to the military pawns, sharp warriors, entrapment and yellow angel regiments.

The Yellow Angels is the name of the Yellow Angels, and the official title is the Yellow Angels.

The Yellow Angels now have more than [-] people in the organization, while the trapped camp has only more than [-] people in the organization. The full number of soldiers and sharp soldiers should be more than [-] people.

After successive battles in Qingxu, Pengcheng, etc., the casualties of the Ming army were also quite serious.

Although some people were selected from the local garrison later to fill it in, there is still a certain gap, and it will take some time to recover.

One city refers to Chang'an City Guard, which also belongs to the directly-controlled army, with a tentative quota of 5000.

The infantry is fully staffed, 5 people.

The size of the direct-controlled army was set at 8.

But in fact, there are only about 7 soldiers inside and outside Chang'an City.

Du Liaoying has been away for a long time, and Xu An is already preparing to exclude him from the ranks of the direct-controlled army, but his treatment will naturally not be reduced, and will still be retained, and even a few points will be added.

After all, Duliaoying has guarded northern Xinjiang for a long time. After occupying northern Xinjiang, the reason why the four provinces of the Northland are so stable now is Duliaoying.

"The three provinces of Far North, Anbei, and Northern Xinjiang shall be under the jurisdiction of a military area, named 'Northern Territory', with a provisional number of [-] soldiers, and General Du Liao Li De will concurrently lead the first Bing Bei Dao."

After reading this, Xu You's face looks much better now.

At the beginning, he felt quite uncomfortable when he read the order of disarmament and reduction. After all, the eyes of all the generals in the Xuanzheng Hall were focused on him at this moment, like a light on his back.

The generals who can stand in the hall today are all generals at the lowest level of military Sima.

In the Ming army, there is no such thing as a gluttonous wine bag and rice bag. Relying on nepotism and other connections to get to the top is more difficult than reaching the sky in the Ming army.

All the generals in the palace came out of the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood. They were the staff officers of the Privy Council, and those old officers who had retired from the battlefield. .

"The provinces of the Western Regions and the Far West Region will be under the jurisdiction of a military region named 'Anxi'. The tentative number of troops is [-]. Guo Tai, the governor of the Western Regions, will also lead the first Bing Beidao."

When Xu You read this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice involuntarily slowed down a little.

He was in charge of Zhongshufu, and he didn't know anything about the military affairs, but when he saw a separate military region in the Western Regions, Xu You instinctively felt that it was not easy.

If it weren't for the fact that everyone's eyes were on him at the court meeting, he really wanted to take a look at Xu An's expression and see if he could see any clues from it.

He still remembers that day when he saw the "globe" placed on Xu An's desk in the palace, and the story Xu An told him.

the sun never sets...

"One day, no matter how the sun rises or sets, there will be daylight in part of our territory."

"At that time, the sun will never set on our country, the yellow sky will shine on our country forever, and the destiny will always surround our country!"

The situation in the Western Regions is very stable now, but Xu An still set up a military region alone, and set a military strength of 5, far exceeding the Northern Region Military Region, the meaning of which is self-evident.

I'm afraid it won't be long until the Western Regions Military Region is established and the number of troops is replenished, it will be time to enter the West.

Xu You's eyes became clear again, and the hand holding the imperial edict trembled slightly.

Now he is even glad that the assassination of Emperor Ling did not succeed, which gave him a chance.

If he succeeds, I am afraid that he will not have the opportunity to join the Taiping Dao, and naturally he will not be able to become the official of Zhongshufu.

"Southern Xinjiang Province and the Far South Region shall be under the jurisdiction of a military region named 'Nanyang', with a provisional infantry force of 3, a navy of 6, and a total force of [-]. Bing Bei said."

Xu Youtong's hole is miniaturized, and the navy has 2 people. This scale is the combined size of the Liaodong Fleet and Haidong Fleet.

The Liaodong Fleet and Haidong Admiral were able to have such a huge size at the beginning because of the need to suppress the Han court.

But now that the Han court was destroyed, Xu An decided to set up a naval force of 2 in the Nanyang Military Region.
