Back to the Republic of China as a commander

The county magistrate is elected by the county council, and the annual budget of each county is reviewed by the county council in addition to the fixed ratio handed over to the government.

The head of the County Public Security Bureau is nominated by the county chief and appointed and removed by the county council.

Regarding the independence of the judiciary, Chen Shao suggested the establishment of a supervisory bureau and courts, adopting a vertical management model, from top to bottom, to form effective supervision of local councils and the government.At the same time, the government also faces two-way supervision from the parliament and the judiciary. In Chen Shao's view, the government is the final executive department and the department that directly deals with the people.As long as the supervision of the government is in place, many problems can be solved and many risks can be avoided.

After listening to Chen Shao's statement, Ye Zuwen nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Wang Zhenyu and said, "Wenzheng, where did you invite such a great talent, how lucky you are!"

Ye Zuwen no longer calls him General Wang Zhenyu, but calls him by his own name since his marriage was conceived.And Wang Zhenyu no longer called him Mr. Ye, but called him Ye Weng respectfully, and claimed to be Wen Zheng.

"Ye Weng, this person is the proud disciple of Mr. Wang Kaiyun from the Wang family. Now he is waiting for success. It is indeed Wen Zheng's blessing to have such a great talent as Mr. Chen Shao..."

Next is the military reform proposed by Wan Yaohuang and Xu Yuanquan. After all, the overall situation is basically stabilized now. Although Wang Zhenyu knows that the troubled times of the Republic of China have just begun, but if he really wants to participate in the struggle for hegemony in the world, he does not have to blindly launch war.You also have to consolidate your existing power and stabilize your own foundation before you dare to take the step of expansion, and finally you can aspire to the top, right?

Wan Yaohuang's suggestion is: the captain of the local security brigade is directly appointed and dismissed by the security detachment under the jurisdiction of the police headquarters.

The Security Brigade is equivalent to an infantry battalion with three squadrons.

The first squadron is the road protection squadron, which consists of ten dissatisfied squadrons with 140 people.They are stationed in various commercial towns, and they are transferred once a year. They are responsible for guarding the commercial towns and inspections of commercial roads, and half of them are equipped with cavalry.

The second squadron is the mobile squadron, which consists of five reinforced squadrons with 200 people, all of whom are stationed in the county, equipped with [-] horses.

These 340 people are all in accordance with the regular military establishment, training and reorganization, the recruitment of soldiers and the training and appointment of officers are all in the hands of the guarding emissary. Strictly speaking, the local sources of the two brigades are not allowed to exceed 50.00%.Soldiers who have served for five years and failed to transfer to the field army will go to the police station according to actual needs, and they will be placed in the local police station according to actual needs; the second is to be recruited into a part of the directly affiliated enterprise that may be established in the future, and more The other is to enter a vocational school for free for one year and earn a living after graduation.25% of the military pay is directly paid by the Garrison Headquarters on a monthly basis according to the standard of the regular army; Hand it over to the detachment department.Soldiers in the Mobile Brigade of these two brigades shall not be older than 35 years old, officers shall not be older than 30 years old, soldiers in the Road Protection Squadron shall not be older than 45 years old, and officers shall not be older than [-] years old.

The third squadron is the Guardian Squadron, which is composed of armed forces from each village. Each village has a squad with a regular establishment of four people. The squad leader is appointed by the village head.The squadron headquarters and the squadron headquarters are located in the county town and the commercial town respectively. The officers of the brigade headquarters and the squadron headquarters are selected from among the demobilized officers and soldiers who belong to the other two brigades of the detachment, and secondly from among the squad leaders of each squadron. Promote based on merit and performance.

The Guardian Squadron participates in a military competition every year, the autumn exercise in October.Forty percent of the compensation for officers is directly paid by the county government according to the regular army standard, while the treatment for soldiers is relatively poor, only 10%. These expenses are audited by the Department of Integrity of Jingzhou Prefecture.

The other two squadrons conduct the parade twice a year, and the time is scheduled to be held in May and October each year.

Due to the needs of the war, after the field army mobilized excellent soldiers from the mobile squadrons of the security detachments in various places, the temporary gaps that appeared were mobilized from the road protection squadrons, and the gaps in the road protection squadrons were mobilized from the civilian protection squadrons.

After carefully listening to Wan Yaohuang's suggestion, Xu Yuanquan also added another opinion. The mobile squadrons directly under the security brigades of the counties go to the town guarding the emissary to participate in the parade every March.

According to this standard, the number of local armed forces in each county will reach 600. Wang Zhenyu thought about it a little, and felt that this amount of troops is basically sufficient if it is to maintain the local area.

Xu Yuanquan then offered his opinion on the reform of the field troops:

The first is treatment:

The monthly salary of soldiers is 15 yuan, platoon-level officers 24 yuan, company-level officers 35 yuan, battalion-level officers 48 yuan, regiment-level officers 63 yuan, brigade-level officers 81 yuan, division-level officers 100 yuan, and military-level officers [-] yuan.

For full-time jobs, according to this standard, 2 yuan, 3 yuan, 6 yuan, 10 yuan, 12 yuan, 15 yuan, 19 yuan, and 30 yuan will be added respectively.

The above is still the same as the treatment system announced by Ma Xicheng when the Tiger Brigade was formed, without much change.But then, Xu Yuanquan's suggestion made Wang Zhenyu frowned unconsciously.

The first is the establishment of military rank allowances: non-commissioned officers get five yuan a month, lieutenants get 20 yuan a month, school officers get 60 yuan a month, and general officers get 100 yuan a month.

The second is to set up family allowances: lieutenant officers get 30 yuan a month, school officials get 80 yuan a month, and general officials get [-] yuan a month.

The third is to establish subsidies for senior officers: 20 yuan per month for regimental-level officers, 30 yuan per month for brigade-level officers, 50 yuan per month for division-level officers, and [-] yuan per month for military-level officers.

The fourth is to pay double wages during wartime. One-time compensation for the disabled is 12 times the monthly salary standard of the official position at the level of the officer.

Those killed in battle will be compensated according to 24 times the monthly salary standard of the officer at the level of the officer. If there are children, the children will enjoy nine years of free education, and ordinary residents will enjoy six years.

Military academies are divided into non-commissioned officers (mainly training officers below the company, such as platoon leaders, deputy platoon chiefs, and secretary chiefs, etc., who are selected from middle school graduates and active soldiers), and infantry command departments (training officers above the infantry company, and officers below the active company) According to military achievements and recommendations, the artillery command department and the staff department (to train professional military staff officers), and a strategic research school was set up to train military intelligence agents and intelligence analysts.

This is a systematic project, not to mention remuneration, just to establish a military academy requires a large number of professionals and a large amount of capital investment.But what to save, Wang Zhenyu does not intend to save the military academy, so the postponed ones are naturally the three items of military rank, family, and senior officers. Note that it is postponed rather than cancelled, and I hope it will be left to his subordinates; The salary was agreed by Wang Zhenyu, because this is necessary, and nothing can be saved to save the life of his subordinates.

After Xu Yuanquan recorded Wang Zhenyu's decision, Wan Yaohuang brought up the issue of recruitment and training of recruits. In fact, Wang Zhenyu had exchanged opinions with him in private the night before. In fact, Wang Zhenyu also attached great importance to this issue.

The recruitment of new recruits adopts a recruitment system. The monthly salary of new recruits is 20 yuan, the settlement allowance is [-] yuan, and the recruit period is six months.

The recruitment and training of recruits are unified by the three units of the Brigade Headquarters Staff Office, Training Office, and Armament Office (combined military supplies and equipment).

None of the above is the key point. The key point is that from now on, the recruiting power of the Ninth Brigade has been transferred from all combat units to the brigade headquarters. The recruits will know who is the boss of the Ninth Brigade from the beginning of training. . .

Political and military reform plans have a clear direction. Wang Zhenyu looked at Ye Zuwen, and the next economy is the focus of his concern.

Ye Zuwen also looked at Wang Zhenyu. He came this time and brought two big gifts to Wang Zhenyu. . . . . .

Chapter 080: Dragon Pan Jingzhou (Thirteen)

After listening to the suggestions from Chen Shao, Wan Yaohuang, Xu Yuanquan and others, Wang Zhenyu leaned back on the chair feeling a little headache, motionless, and closed his eyes in silence.Although Song Haomin, who had been transferred from the captain of the teaching team to Wang Zhenyu's confidential staff officer, was young, he knew that the brigade commander was a little uncomfortable.He cleverly sent a bottle of wind oil immediately, and dabbed it on the brigade commander's two temples. This thing can repel mosquitoes, and it is a must-have medicine for all officers and soldiers in the Jingzhou Prefecture.

After feeling a numbness and coolness, Wang Zhenyu opened his eyes, but was suffocated by a tingling sensation.Song Haomin immediately handed over a handkerchief, and Wang Zhenyu took it and wiped his teary eyes, feeling refreshed immediately.

Now I finally feel that I am no longer in the future, and I always scold those who hold power for being incompetent. In fact, the most difficult thing in this world is to be in charge.Just look at the few things reported just now, whether it is setting up a commercial town, building roads and bridges, or setting up a military academy to improve salaries, which one does not require a lot of money.Although I took advantage of the opportunity of the Revolution of 1000 to make some money against my conscience, but I was sitting on the mountain and eating nothing. If I continue to toss it like this, let alone more than [-] million, even [-] million can't help but spend a few times.

So there is only one word in Wang Zhenyu's heart now, annoying.

Ye Zuwen looked at his future son-in-law with a smile, and the more he watched, the more satisfied he was. Of course he knew what Wang Zhenyu was annoyed about now. After all, when the [-] Revolution broke out, he was more annoyed than Wang Zhenyu now, and it was all because of money.

When it comes to Wang Zhenyu's money, Ye Zuwen really admires the courage of his future son-in-law, who dares to make any kind of money.

The single piece of equipment in Hankou earned 600 million yuan, and then invested 200 million yuan in Liu Hongsheng's Hongsheng Company, paid 300 million yuan to Commander Huang of the left-behind mansion in Nanjing, and obtained a huge sum of 200 million yuan through arms transactions.In addition to the expenses of the Ninth Brigade for the past few months, Ye Zuwen still has a full 100 million.

But just after listening to the report of the future son-in-law's subordinates, Ye Zuwen, the big brother, counted with his fingers and knew that it was all money-eating projects.If you can only go out but not in, it is not very good.

But this time I came here to help my son-in-law get money, so don't look at Wang Zhenyu's brows getting tighter and tighter, but Ye Zuwen still took his time, drinking tea and listening leisurely.

Now it's our father-in-law's turn to speak: "Wen Zheng, before I came this time, I met a person who told me something, and I think you will be interested in this matter."

Wang Zhenyu's eyes lit up, and he leaned over and said, "Oh, Mr. Ye, please tell me."

"Wen Zheng has heard of Cheng Zufu?" Ye Zuwen didn't say it directly, but just guided him.

Wang Zhenyu shook his head in embarrassment. In fact, there are countless celebrities, well-known people, and experts in every era, but in the official China, there are very few who can finally appear in history textbooks.

Ye Zuwen seemed to expect that Wang Zhenyu didn't know, and said again: "Where is Governor Zhang Zhidong?"

Only then did Wang Zhenyu laugh and said, "No one in the world knows that!"

Ye Zuwen nodded and continued: "When Zhang Zhidong was implementing the new policy in Hubei, he once opened the Hubei Cement Factory in Daye County (now Huangshi City) in Hubei..."

It turned out that in 1907, Zhang Zhidong, governor of Huguang, planned to establish a cement factory in Hubei, considering the needs of industrial development.

Cement, known as Semend Soil at the time, was necessary for building roads, bridges, and factories. In 1905, Zhang Zhidong invited investment for the cement factory together with the papermaking, tanning, felting and other factories, and pointed out in particular: "Daye produces a lot of cement raw materials. We should build factories in the lime kiln area To buy a machine and start it, the cost is about 20 taels of silver." He also predicted the prospect: "This kind of industry is a start-up, and it will make a lot of profits."

In 1907, at the beginning of the 33rd year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty, Cheng Zufu, an alternate Taoist in Fujian and prime minister of Shanghai Tsinghua Industrial Company, reported that he was willing to recruit 30 taels of stock to undertake the Hubei Cement Factory.Hubei Cement Factory is also the fifth cement factory in our history and the first cement factory named after cement. The other four are: Macao Qingzhou Cement Factory (1886), Tangshan Shimin Soil Factory (1889), Guangzhou Shimin Cement Factory Mintu Factory (1905), Dalian Onoda Cement Factory (1907).

But it is a pity that because of various reasons that can be explained and reasons that cannot be explained, the Hubei Cement Factory has been a freak with bad congenital defects and deficiencies in the day after tomorrow.

In a word, it is insufficient funds. Although Cheng Zufu intends to set up a factory, he suffers from insufficient funds, and raises shares in all directions, but with little effect.

On May 1909, 5, the first production line of Hubei Cement Factory was completed and put into trial production. The product trademark was "Baota Brand".
