Lord of the House

When Lin Fu mentioned Jiangdao Prison, he also mentioned Gu Wuchen's itch.

Gu Wuchen came to Jiangning for the first time and served as the deputy envoy of Jiangdong inspector. He had to establish a firm foothold in Jiangning step by step before he could think about doing things like revolutionizing the old and making new ones. Even if there is a saying that a new official takes office as three fires, it is just killing chickens, scaring monkeys, making small troubles, and easily hurting the interests of most people, which will be strongly backlashed. He will never forget that there are Lord Chaser and Jiang Ning's team waiting for him to make mistakes.

Of course, Gu Wuchen is not someone who doesn't seek progress when he sees the situation is difficult. In the past few days when he took office in Jiangning, he was also thinking about finding an inconspicuous place to open up the situation.

Jiangdao Prison was originally a prison city jointly promoted by the Jiangning Department of Punishment and the Jiangdong Inspectorate. It wanted to replace the imprisonment with long-term imprisonment and hard labor. The proposal to build the prison city was rejected by the capital center and became the prison of the Jiangdong Inspectorate. A prison for ordinary sentenced prisoners.

Seven or eight years ago, the officials of the Western Qin faction were in the right position, and they controlled the center and regarded Jiangning's tomb guards as nothing. In the past few years, the Jiangning Department of Punishment and the Jiangdong Commissioner have been petitioning for the reopening of the prison city. veto. The so-called "Thirty Rivers East and Thirty Rivers West", today the officials of the Western Qin faction are no longer trusted by Jin Shang, and the Chu Party is rising in the center. Gu Wuchen thought that the resistance to reopening the prison would be the least at this time.

Gu Wuchen is not a simple and optimistic character, and he knows that the principles of Jiangning's tomb guards are very limited, and they spend more time fighting with the Yanjing center. In the past, when the center objected, they kept petitioning, and maybe the center agreed, they would turn their guns and oppose it. Gu Wuchen felt that he had to make adequate preparations before he mentioned the prison city again. After all, he did not have the conditions to reopen the prison city for the time being.

There are only 60 pure guard prisoners in the Jiangdong police officer Sicheng, relying on the garrison strength of the Jiangning government and the Jiangning garrison. Among them, in order to ensure the safety of Jiangdao prison, there are twice as many jailers stationed there than in the city.

As a considerable number of prisoners in Gangdong County are detained in prisons in various prefectures and counties, only those prisoners who have been sentenced to more than three years but less than five years in prison and have no money to redeem their crimes are released to Jiangdao prison for centralized detention (prisoners in prefectures and counties other than Jiangning are for the purpose of Even if the family is poor, they will try their best to use money to atone for the crime to less than three years), all kinds of circumstances, resulting in less than 100 prisoners detained in Jiangdao prison in the entire Jiangdong County.

Precisely because the number of prisoners in custody is limited, the materials stored on the island are naturally limited, and the guards are adequately guarded. Although there are river bandits and water bandits crossing the border, most of them will not take the initiative to harass the island.

Once the prison city is reopened, the situation will be completely different.

After the prison city is reopened, all prisoners sentenced to exile in Jiangdong County will be concentrated in Jiangdao prison city, and even those prisoners who have already flowed out of the border will be transferred to prison city through various channels. The prisoners in Jiangdao Prison City will soon exceed a thousand people, and the island's reserve materials will greatly increase, which will greatly increase its attractiveness to Jiangdao bandits. Another is that it is obviously more difficult to manage serious criminals sentenced to exile than minor criminals sentenced to imprisonment, and even many people are the leaders of gangsters or bandits who have murdered and overtaken. not much.

In this way, Jiangdao Prison's current garrison strength will appear very weak, and it can even be said that it is full of loopholes. Especially when everyone in Jiangning had the mentality of watching a good show, Gu Wuchen could not expect the Jiangning garrison stationed outside the city to provide timely rescue.

Jiang Ning had too many officials who wanted to see his good show. Once he petitioned the center to reopen the prison, and as a result, a large number of exiles and felons escaped or a group of bandits attacked the prison, Gu Wuchen thought that it would be good for him to keep his seat at that time. There is no need to talk about innovation.

It is a matter of extreme caution to ask the center to reopen the prison city. Gu Wuchen will not risk his future until he is completely sure, but Lin Fu proposed to go to Jiangdao Prison to be the prison officer. When it comes to life, if Lin Fu is really capable, maybe he will be able to meet the conditions for reopening the prison.

****************

Hearing that Lin Fu said that Jiangdao prison and the mouth of Jinchuan River can be guarded firmly with only three to five hundred elites, Yang Shi was a little disdainful on the side, but Gu Wuchen discussed with Lin Fu with great interest.

"The clerk is a civil minister, and although there is still a small amount of direct military force, perhaps only the guards and soldiers around the officials can be called elites. The arrest of bandits generally relies on local government troops or village soldiers and villagers. Force is even less trustworthy," Gu Wuchen said, "You said that with three or five hundred elites, Jiangdao can be firmly guarded, but I have no way to transfer three or five hundred elites to you..."

"Lin Fu knows a little about how to train soldiers." Lin Fu knew what Gu Wuchen meant, and he only wanted a place to train soldiers. "Lin Fuke went to Dongyang Mansion to recruit soldiers to serve as prison guards."

Although the town army under the jurisdiction of the Admiral's Mansion is the main body of the military power of the Dayue Dynasty, this dynasty has always had a traditional tendency to use civility to control the military. Shen Rong's direct and drastic restructuring of the military under his rule was an act tacitly approved by the imperial court, which was probably the reason why the imperial court had more trust in the civil servants. Gu Wuchen was not particularly surprised when Lin Fu suggested going to Dongyang Mansion to recruit soldiers from his hometown, at least from what he heard, Lin Fu had no selfish intentions.

In Jiangning, Gu Wuchen is of course the leader of the Dongyang Township Party, and the Dongyang soldiers recruited by Lin Fu will be directly brought under the jurisdiction of the inspector. These three or five hundred elites can be said to be his personal soldiers.

Gu Wuchen didn't have any other ambitions, but he thought that it would be more convenient to have three or five hundred hometown soldiers in his hands in the future. He said, "It's not busy to talk about it. You can talk about your military training method first..." If possible, he would In the future, Yang Pu, Ma Chao or Yang Shi will directly lead these three or five hundred hometown soldiers to Jiangdao prison to serve as prison guards, but Yang Pu three have no fame, and the rank of the military attache is too low. Besides, he thinks Lin Bie is still trustworthy.

"Su Hou's "Notes on the Seven Classics of Martial Arts" is a collection of the military achievements of our ancestors," Lin Fu said, looking at the books in Gu Wuchen's hand, "Lin Fu was fortunate enough to read a few fragments, and he has a little understanding of the method of leaving the army. What I realized..." Then he told Gu Wuchen in detail some of the soldiers, soldiers, and methods of military use that he had come to scrutinize with Zhou Pu during this period of time.

Since ancient times, literati have a hobby of talking about military affairs on paper, and they also have the fantasy of holding the reins to control the world, and Gu Wuchen is no exception. The exception is that he has been in the army for ten years, and he has a deeper understanding and a deeper understanding of the method of military management in the army than those literati who can only talk about soldiers on paper. This is also what he is proud of. He originally thought that Lin Fu had some general understanding and perception of the art of war, but he did not think that what Lin Fu was really proficient in was the management and training of soldiers in small-scale battalions. insufficient. Lin Fu's words were right, which made Gu Wuchen, who had been in the army for nearly ten years, moved when he heard it. Yang Pu and Ma Chao came over and urged him to go to the yamen to sit in the hall, but he and Lin Fu had a good talk, so they asked Yang Pu and Yang Shi to go for him. The yamen guards the matter and returns quickly to report.

Gu Wuchen sighed: "I still recommend you to go to Yanjing. You take my letter and go to Yanjing. As long as Tang Gong and Zhang Xiang recognize your talent, even if you are not successful in the township exam, you still don't have to worry about having no way out in Yanjing..."

Lin Fu smiled and said, "Lin Fu is more willing to assist adults in Jiangning..."

"Don't you feel wronged that you are only the prisoner?" Gu Wuchen asked. He never wanted Lin Fu to stay and help him. He was too short of a handy assistant in Jiangning. In his opinion, there is great hope for reopening the prison city by using Lin Fu to rule Jiangdao prison. To be able to successfully reopen the prison city and maintain it is a major innovation in the punishment name of this dynasty.

"Lin Fu wants to be this prisoner, but he still has a bit of selfishness." Lin Fu said.

"Oh?" Gu Wuchen looked at Lin Bie.

"Lin Fu intends to build a warehouse at the mouth of the Jinchuan River..." Lin Fu said. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

Not to mention at this time, when a warehouse is built at the mouth of Jinchuan River in the future, Gu Wuchen can also see the bright hall in it at a glance.

"Hehe," Gu Wuchen was very satisfied with Lin Fu's candid confession. Besides, his Gu family had silver shares in Jiyun Club. If Lin Fu was not allowed to take care of his personal affairs at all, how would his family be embarrassed to take some money from Jiyun Club in the future? He said with a smile, "Although civil servants are all modeled by the selflessness of the public, the real selfless people are only sung in the play and have never seen it in life. You just have to remember not to abolish the public for personal reasons."

"Lin Fu remembers the teachings of adults." Lin Fu said.

"Well, there is no urgency to recruit military soldiers, but this is the job of the prison guard. You will wait for my news in the past two days," Gu Wuchen said naturally, "You go to the prison, and many things need to be done. Slowly figure it out. You are full of talent, and you are dedicated to serving the imperial court, so don’t worry about your future. Isn’t Dong Yuan also a child?”

"Thank you for the promotion." Lin Fu stood up and bowed to Gu Wuchen.

Gu Wuchen stayed with Lin Fu for lunch. After lunch, Gu Wuchen went to the yamen to sit in the hall, and Lin Fu and Zhou Pu returned to Jiyunju. Lin Fu didn't expect to persuade Gu Wuchen to let him take up the post of Jiangdao Prison so smoothly. When he thinks about it, he can guess that Gu Wuchen intends to take Jiangdao Prison as his first step in Jiangning's drastic reform.

Lin Fu didn't know how long the terminally ill Dayue Dynasty could last, but he knew how difficult it was for Gu Wuchen to reform the current bureaucracy. He and Zhou Pu returned to Jiyunju and led the horse into the courtyard. Qian Xiaowu said that there were visitors. While waiting, Lin Bie probed and looked, but it was Qian Xiaowu's old creditor, Chen Lai, who put money in Xicheng, standing in the yard with a drooling face. My QT room is open!
