After Geng Kuang was released, Geng Bingwen also complied with the deal he had made with Zhu Zhi. He listed the names of his trusted aides in the 23rd Guard of the Liaodong Army and handed them over to the Liao Prince's mansion.
Zhu Zhi did not doubt that Geng Bingwen would dare to fake this list because this kind of thing could not be hidden. Once it was exposed, Geng Bingwen would have to bear the anger of the Liao King's residence.
Geng Bingwen couldn't bear this anger.
After that, Zhu Zhi gave this list to Guo Ying and asked him to complete the replacement of the Liaodong army officers. He would transfer his trusted aides from the Liao King's residence to replace the generals in the Liaodong army.
This was a matter of time. After a year and a half, the confidants of the Liao Prince's residence would completely integrate into the Liaodong army. At that time, Zhu Zhi would have control over the entire Liaodong army.
Zhu Zhi's father-in-law, Marquis Wuding Guo Ying, was a smart person. He did not ask why Geng Bingwen would suddenly give up his power and was even willing to be the commander-in-chief of Liaodong.
This wasn't something he should ask. The higher-ups were the ones to worry about. There were three reasons why Zhu Zhi valued him:
Firstly, it was because Guo Ying could be trusted. Now that the Guo family was tied to the Liao King's residence, if the Liao King's residence sank, the Guo family would drown.
Secondly, it was because Guo Ying was capable. He had avoided several massacres during the Hongwu period. In today's era where generals were scarce, Guo Ying had risen from a first-rate general to a super-first-rate general. There were not many people who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Guo Ying, a 60-year-old general.
Thirdly, Guo Ying was smart enough. This intelligence did not mean that he could read people's minds, but that he knew how to behave himself. He did not ask what he should not ask and did what Zhu Zhi asked him to do.
Zhu Zhi narrowed his eyes and chuckled. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, his shadow was stretched very long.
He was the King of Liao and the King of Liaodong!
……
March, 29th year of Hongwu
"Control the entire Liaodong region mission completed!”
" Reward: Exchange Points x 200, 800 skilled workers.”
After a few months, the 11 Liaodong Guards that Geng Bingwen controlled had a change of generals.
Now, the 23 guards of Liaodong were all controlled by generals from the Liao King's residence.
Old Zhu had never thought that his two Dao proclamations would cause Geng Bingwen to be taken over by Zhu Zhi and become a commander without any troops.
Zhu Yuanzhang was a person who valued power. He wanted to put all the power in the hands of the emperor and then balance the power between the various officials of the court.
For this reason, he did not hesitate to launch the "Hu Weiyong Case" and abolish the Prime Minister system to achieve the goal of concentrating power.
Zhu Yuanzhang had never stopped balancing his subordinates.
He distributed the power of the Ministry of Central Affairs to the six departments to balance each other. He also broke up the original Ministry of Central Affairs and changed it to the three divisions of "Capital Command Division, Administrative Commissioner Division, and Judge Division". However, this was not enough. He still had to let the Fan Wang disrupt the situation from the middle to prevent the three divisions from colluding.
Regarding Liaodong's policies, Zhu Yuanzhang originally only wanted to expand Zhu Zhi's right to speak in Liaodong and prevent Geng Bingwen, an outsider, from becoming the speaker of Liaodong.
However, what Old Zhu never expected was that Zhu Zhi took advantage of this opportunity to directly usurp Geng Bingwen's military power!
From then on, Liaodong was ruled by Zhu Zhi.
Whoever dared to object, there was no need for Zhu Zhi to personally make a move. The two commanders of Liaodong Dusi Tongzhi wrote a letter to report, and the commander of Dusi, Geng Bingwen, approved it. Then, the Liao King Wei carried out the execution. First, those who opposed Zhu Zhi were dismissed from office, and then detained in prison for trial.
However, it was usually impossible to create such a big scene. Usually, it was the commander of the guard station or the thousand household officer who could make a scene. Now, the commander of the guard station and the thousand household officer of Liaodong were all from the Liao King's residence. Who would oppose their own master?
However, Zhu Zhi did not have the time to care about these trivial matters. He handed all these trivial matters to Guo Ying. Everyone had their own strengths, and Guo Ying's strengths were winning battles and managing the army.
What Zhu Zhi was concerned about now was the 800 skilled workers rewarded by the system.
"System, what are these 800 skilled workers?”Zhu Zhi asked impatiently.
[All aspects.]
"All aspects?" Zhu Zhi was stunned for a moment." What do you mean by all-round? You know everything?"”
"Yes, the 800 technical workers provided by the system are proficient in most of the industrial engineering of the current era, and the upper limit of talent is very high. As long as the host provides technical materials, they will learn and apply them in the shortest time possible.”
Hearing the system's answer, Zhu Zhi couldn't help but gasp.
Technicians were treasures in this era. As for all-rounded technicians?
That was not a treasure, but a god!
800 technicians might not seem like a lot, but they were all talents who could be used as instructors!
A mechanic could teach ten apprentices in a month. What a terrifying human resource!
"System, other than the mission reward, can I get this all-rounded technical talent from other sources?”Zhu Zhi asked.
"Yes, it can be exchanged in the system store.”The system replied,"The products of the system must be of the best quality." The system store has everything."
