Zhou stayed in Yongping Prefecture for four days, sorted out government affairs and went down to inspect the people's conditions.

Two days later, he held a meeting of officials at all levels in the palace, and promoted more than 20 outstanding people, rewarded the current silver and land acres.

The conference was very successful, and everyone was enthusiastic and promised to charge for Zhou Zheng and promote the "restoration of the ancestral system" in Yongping Prefecture.

Zhou Zheng sat at the highest point, kept watching, happy, and nodded secretly.

After this period, Kou Huaiyi and Zhou Fang's transfer order finally came. Zhou Fang was transferred to the magistrate of Changli County, and Kou Huaiyi was transferred to the magistrate of Funing County.

In addition, Zhang Heyi was promoted to the magistrate of Yongping County, and the magistrates of the three counties of Yongping Prefecture were all Zhou Zheng's people.

Zhou Zheng talked with them for a long time before he sent them to the hospital to take office.

In March, Zhou Zheng had time to leave and went to the military camp east of Yongping Prefecture.

Cao Bianjiao was training in the training ground at this time. He had bright eyes and a stern expression. He shouted as he walked: "Power hard! Use force! You can use force more now, and you will have a greater chance of survival on the battlefield! If you want to achieve military achievements, you want to get promoted and make money, give me some effort!"

The soldiers were naked and jumping hard, while shouting loudly.

"Abide by the orders! Obey the orders!"

"Loyal to the Emperor! Defend the Ming Dynasty!"

The soldiers had a very good mental outlook, were also very serious and hardworking.

Zhou Zheng stood not far away and watched quietly.

Not long after, a soldier came to Cao Bianjiao and whispered.

Cao Bianjiao turned around suddenly and saw Zhou Zheng looking at him with a smile not far away.

Cao Bianjiao said, "Continue training", and turned around and ran to Zhou Zheng, knelt on one knee and said, "I will meet you."

Because of his great achievements, Cao Bianjiao was awarded the title of "guerrilla general". This official position was not a "general", but under the general, he made a great move and was a dazzling new star rising in the army.

Zhou Zheng reached out and helped him up and said, "Tell me about the situation."

Cao Bianjiao got up and asked Zhou Zheng to go to the camp, while saying, "Sir, all the pensions that should be paid have been distributed, and there are no omissions. I personally checked them. There are currently 5,000 people in the military camp. I am working hard to recruit tens of thousands of people again..."

Zhou Zheng had already known before he came that he would report anything Cao Bianjiao did.

Zhou Zheng said: "It's done well. I'll suspend recruitment first. I want to go to Tianjin Wei. I will first rectify Tianjin Wei, and then do things in Yongping Mansion again in Hejian Mansion. It's easy for ten thousand people."

Tianjin Wei has more than 10,000 people. According to general requirements, there are ten thousand people in each government, and Zhou Zheng has the right to raise more than 30,000 people!

Cao Bianjiao said: "Sir, are we going to Tianjin Wei?"

Zhou Zheng nodded and said, "The army is concentrated in Tianjin, and there are two thousand people stationed in each prefecture to respond."

Cao Bianjiao thought for a while and said, "Sir, the last general is just a guerrilla general, with 30,000 people, which is incompatible with the system."

Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "You are only responsible for training. The commander is my official, and others can't say anything."

Cao Bianjiao said nothing more and said, "Yes. I will send an order here, clean up and prepare to decapitate the camp."

"I'm here today and hold a promotion meeting to promote and reward meritorious soldiers." Zhou Zhengdao.

"It's my lord!" Cao Bianjiao responded.

Nothing can boost morale and win people's hearts than promotion, current silver, and land rewards.

Zhou Zheng presented them with awards one by one, smiling and encouraging them.

These soldiers were extremely excited, and all knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice: "I wish to serve you to die!"

Zhou Zheng patted his shoulder with a smile and nodded.

This reward conference is undoubtedly very successful, with high morale and bright future in the whole army.

In the third year of Chongzhen, in mid-March, Zhou was guarding the 5,000 Cao Bianjiao army and headed south to Tianjin Guard.

Tianjin Guards actually have three guards, Tianjin Guards, Tianjin left and right two guards. According to the organization, the full number of people per guard is 5,600, while the three guards should be 16,800.

In terms of military system, the commander is led by the commander and is affiliated with the Hou Army Protectorate. However, the Five Army Protectorate has long been in name only, and the commander of the Tianjin Three Guards has long been no longer established. The Tianjin Three Guards are often commanded by the Tianjin Governor and directly belong to the Ministry of War.

Therefore, there are a total of 15,000 households in the three Tianjin guards leading the troops, but the Tianjin guards were still OK during the Li Banghua period and were very abandoned in recent years.

The reason why Chongzhen asked Zhou Zheng to come to purify Tianjin Wei was probably because of the uneasiness caused by Jianlu's advance to the capital.

Tianjin Wei is the gateway to the capital. Zhu Di crossed the Grand Canal here, invaded Nanjing all the way, and won the throne.

It is also the key to the transportation of the north and south. If it is interrupted here, the money and grain from the south will not be able to enter Beijing. It is the most important distribution center for the south and north!

Therefore, Tianjin Wei is not only a strategic military site, but also economically important, and is a place that must be fought for by military strategists!

After years of development, Tianjin Wei has become more than a military base, with nearly 200,000 military and civilians under its jurisdiction!

There are also colleges and many yamen, including canal transportation, salt courses, etc., which have official yamen here.

Zhou Zheng led a 5,000 army into Tianjin Wei, attracting countless onlookers along the way.

Officials at all levels of Tianjin Wei, especially the many thousand households who led the troops, had been waiting for the audience in Zhigu.

Officials at all levels came to see him because they received the news. Zhou Zheng had already written to the court, saying that Tianjin's health affairs were complicated and that there were too many officials to set up, which was inconvenient to manage them uniformly, so he requested to set up a county.

If a county is really established, then Zhou Zhengtong will definitely need to be transferred to all matters such as personnel. If they don’t show up quickly and give a full impression in front of the imperial envoy, they will not be allowed to go home to farm?

The thousands of households in the three guards of Tianjin heard that Zhou Zheng was going to significantly cut off the redundant soldiers of Tianjin guards and simplify their military affairs. Even if they were arrogant and powerful in Tianjin guards, how could they play with these officials, especially the imperial envoys!

So, how dare they neglect?

Zhou Zheng just let out two rumors, which made the Tianjin Guards uneasy and came to ask for a meeting, but no one dared to give him a warning.

At the same time, Chen Wuyong and others from Hejian Prefecture were even more frowning.

Wei Chong looked at Chen Wuyong and said with a nervous look on his face: "Sir, do you really want to be transferred to Yongping Mansion?"

Chen Wuyong glanced at him and said, "The transfer order from the Ministry of Personnel will arrive tomorrow."

He Gong hurriedly said, "Sir, are there really no room for improvement? Yongping Mansion is the place where Zhou Xunguan is stationed. After going there, isn't it still empty? Besides, what should Hejian Mansion do?"

Chen Wuyong had a calm face and didn't say anything.

Chen Wuyong has been in Hejian Mansion for four years and is not a local emperor. There is no sufficient reason, so Wang Yongguang cannot keep him here forever.

Besides, some of his handles have been obtained by the censors and are impeaching him. If Wang Yongguang stays forcibly, the censors will impeach Wang Yongguang together for "forming a clique for personal gain". At such a chaotic situation in the court, Wang Yongguang would not be charged with this crime because of him.

Also, compared to going to Fengxiang Mansion in Shaanxi, Yongping Mansion is much better. Even if you are just a stubborn person, it is better than going to Fengxiang Mansion.

Not only He Gong, the chief of the left and right government officials, but also several magistrates, they watched Chen Wuyong not speak, their hearts were raised to their throats and their faces were full of fear.

They all knew what Zhou Zheng did in Yongping’s Mansion. Zhang Yonglian was taken to the capital and beheaded. His confidants would either die or be exiled. If Hejian Mansion did the same, would they be good?

There is no innocent person in the Ming Dynasty. Every time you check, you will be accurate, and there will be no injustice!

Chen Wuyong looked at the expressions of a group of people, all of whom were 'common wealth and honor', and his expression moved, saying, "Zhou Xunzhang has arrived in Zhigu, let's go to see you."

Zhigu, the central base of Tianjin Sanwei.

Everyone listened to Chen Wuyong's words, their mouths were bitter and they kept silent.

This time, it is equivalent to giving the head to Zhou Zheng, who said what Zhou Zheng said.

But they didn't dare to resist. The situation was stronger than the people. What could they do?
