The word "staff officer" was not found in later generations.

In fact, the word "staff" was already in the late Tang Dynasty. The staff was one of the staff members of the late Tang Dynasty and was in charge of planning and planning. The ambassador of the South and the officers of the military and horses were supervised. The officers in the north of Liao also had this official.

Of course, "Staff" truly means to be advised by later generations, and it has to wait until the end of the Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.

In the late Qing Dynasty, the military system was reformed and a new army, army, and town (division) established this officer, which was in charge of military training and planning. The army's chief of staff was called the general staff officer, and the town's chief of staff was called the chief staff officer. The following were first, second and third-class staff officers.

The military and military organs of the Republic of China also appointed staff, and the chief of staff was called the chief of staff.

Nowadays, the staff officer is just a low-level official, a staff member, and a relatively low-level one.

But that doesn't matter, because what is the title of the position is not important, what is important is what the power of the position is.

Cai still briefly told Zhu Boliang about his "invention" of the staff system.

Of course, Cai still couldn't be a taboo to Zhu Boliang. He just talked about the differences between his staff and his staff.

For example: The core responsibility of the staff is to break down the strategic intentions of the war commander into a series of executable tactical tasks, and the staff must even be delegated to the command (battalion) level. In most cases, the staff can only be in the command headquarters and only be with one of the generals who hired them.

For example: Under the staff system, not only is the efficiency and more accurate in intelligence collection and intelligence analysis, but the objectivity of intelligence has also been greatly increased. In addition, staff are rationalized, professionalized, standardized and professionalized like other modern professions in later generations. However, staff members have different abilities, unclear organizational structures, unclear responsibilities, and their relationship with the general is also personal.

For example: Staff officers and generals have no personal dependence. Appointment, promotion, punishment, salary, etc. In theory, neither has anything to do with either. (There is now appointment, promotion, punishment, salary, and the future staff will be appointed, promoted, punished, and salary will be paid by the state established by Cai Shen). Moreover, the positions and responsibilities of the staff are consistent. However, the staff are not like this at all. Private appointments, responsibilities are vague, and treatment is unclear. The staff rely entirely on the generals they depend on to survive and exercise power. Simply put, the staff are the vassals of the generals they depend on.

For example: The General Staff is a whole military and political system, and they are not under the jurisdiction of the general (now only under Cai, only under the jurisdiction of the General Staff, and in the future only under the jurisdiction of the State, only under the jurisdiction of the General Staff). The staff are only a group that depends on a certain general, and they only listen to the general. This leads to the different ways of thinking, different nature, and different status and future directions.

For example: The staff system is a rational bureaucratic documentary system composed of highly professional staff who have been trained and have been uniformly trained. It is not a strait team that can be formed by just a few staff members.

etc……

Although Cai Shen only told Zhu Boliang a rough idea, it also made Zhu Boliang see that Cai Shen's system is many times more intelligent than the existing civil servants' rude commanding and general system.

While this shocked Zhu Boliang, he was even more grateful that Cai Shen could become his son-in-law.

Zhu Boliang said: "In this way, you really need a large number of literati, otherwise it will be difficult for me to continue to promote your staff... Well, don't worry, I will definitely do my best to recruit literati for you. As for the money, forget it, you and I are not an outsider. As long as you can be well, I am happier than anything else."

Cai still heard it well before, but what the hell is this an outsider?

Cai Jianxin said, "Does he still want me to be his son-in-law?"

really!

Cai Shen's guess was confirmed immediately, and Zhu Boliang said again: "Ziyin, I am Shen'er, as long as you are kind to Shen'er in the future, I will do everything for you."

Cai still wanted to politely reject Zhu Boliang again, but the guard of the Hemen who led the way suddenly shouted: "The civil and military officials are separated and are ready to enter the hall, so don't make loud noises!"

When Zhu Boliang heard the words, he waved his hand with Cai Shen, and then joined the civil servants. Cai Shen had no choice but to put the matter down for the time being and entered the military officers.

The court meeting of the Song Dynasty was that civil and military officials stood on both sides, civil officials stood on the left and military officials stood on the right. The prime minister was the first on the left, and the Taiwei was the first on the right, and the official position was arranged according to the height of the official position.

After the officials who attended the court gathered outside the forbidden gate, Wang Fu and the following all used white paper to paste a lantern, wrote their official positions on it, and then held them in front of the horse's head - the spectacular scene of the lantern surrounding the imperial city, which was called "Fire City".

Wang Fu finally arrived.

Afterwards, the lanterns were extinguished one by one.

Cai still and the civil and military ministers entered the wait-out courtyard and waited for the ban to open.

Since officials entered the wards early, the wards provide wine, meat, melons and fruits, and there are a large number of breakfast stalls gathered in front of the wards, so ministers can buy some food here.

Cai Shen didn't eat anything in the morning, so he ordered twenty meat buns and walked forward while eating.

Cai still eats very distinctively, and in one word, it is: fast!

Cai still had a meat bun with a big fist.

Twenty meat buns, Cai still finished all of them in a short while.

Seeing this scene, all the military officers were amazed at Cai Shen's appetite and speed of eating.

The Left Guard General in front of Cai Shen, the son-in-law Cao Shi, sneered: "Hmph! Vulgar!"

Cai Shen has never offended Cao Xi, and Cao Shen is not targeting Cai Shen. The reason why he said Cai Shen is vulgar is that he is... he is a mean person.

Yes.

Cao Shi is famous for being mean, and Cao Shi and everyone else are mean.

In addition to being humble, Cao Shi was also vulgar and irritable. It is said that even Emperor Chongfu Princess Zhao Mijin was bullied by him and was depressed.

In short, Cao Shi is a very, very annoying person.

But no matter how you hate Cao Xi, it is useless, because you have no way to deal with him.

Cao Xi was a descendant of Cao Bin, a famous founding general of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Cao Bin made great contributions in the Unification War of the Northern Song Dynasty - he destroyed the Later Shu and the Southern Tang, attacked the Northern Han, and attacked the Liao Kingdom, and made great contributions.

Moreover, Cao Bin is a pure, fearful, kind, respectful and kind person.

In the court, Cao Bin never violated the order and never talked about other people's faults.

In the attack on Later Shu and Southern Tang, Cao Bin took nothing.

As the general and prime minister, Cao Bin never disagrees with his power as a rank.

When he met a scholar and a literati on the road, Cao Bin would definitely lead the car to avoid it and never call his subordinates the name. Every time his subordinates talked about political affairs, he would definitely be the first to receive him.

It can be said that Cao Bin is the most example of the military officers praised by the Northern Dynasties. None of them, the literati of the Northern Song Dynasty hoped that all the military officers of the Northern Song Dynasty could be like Cao Bin.

Moreover, not only Cao Bin is excellent, but Cao Bin's descendants are also excellent.

Cao Bin's granddaughter became the queen of Song Renzong.

Cao Bin's great-granddaughter became the queen of Song Yingzong.

This also ensures that the Cao family has been prosperous throughout the Northern Song Dynasty and has become an undisputed nobleman in the Northern Song Dynasty.

How expensive is the Cao family?

When Zhao Ji was in high spirits, he had to marry his two biological daughters, Emperor Rongde, Zhao Jinnu and Emperor Chongfu, Zhao Mijin, into the Cao family. Uncle Cao Sheng married Zhao Jinnu, and nephew Cao Xi married Zhao Mijin, the elder sister of Zhao Fujin and Zhao Fujin, who were the same father and mother.

It is so expensive. Even if Zhao Ji heard that Cao Shi was a bastard who was an annoying person, Zhao Mijin was not living well and unhappy in the Cao family, so he chose to let him go.

In addition, Cao Xi married Zhao Mijin and became the son-in-law of Zhao Ji.

Not only Cai still had no choice but to take Cao Xi, but even powerful ministers like Wang Fu, Tong Guan, and Cai You were all helpless to take Cao Xi.

This also leads to Cao Xi saying whatever he wants and doing whatever he wants, without any scruples, without any humility, fear, politeness, respect and kindness of his grandfather Cao Bin.

Therefore, when Cao Xi was called "vulgar", Cai still had no choice but to wait until the dynasty changes in the future before settled the score with this slutty guy.

So, Cai still pretended not to hear what Cao Xi said, and deliberately distanced himself from Cao Xi, and was unhappy.

Seeing that Cai was still "cowardly", Cai Shi hummed disdainfully and said to himself: "So what if you are talented? So what if you can fight? So what if you have a bright future? Don't you have to retreat to me, Cao Shi?" and then became even more arrogant.

The people around him shook their heads and said to himself: "What a great man Cao Bin, how could he have such a descendant?"

Those who accomplish great things sometimes have to be able to tolerate what others cannot tolerate, not to mention that Cao Xi is just a clown who is a skillful toad that is close to his feet. If he really knows about him, he will not talk about his troubles, but he will also lower his identity. On the contrary, if he doesn't know about him, he can still show his demeanor.

As for this "vulgar" hatred, when the Northern Song Dynasty collapses, he can calculate how he wants to calculate with Cao Xi, as long as he can survive at that time.

After walking and stopping for a long time, Cai Shen followed the military officers into the Wende Hall.

Later, senior officials and officials named by Zhao Ji went to Chuigong Hall to meet Zhao Ji. Officials like Cai Gan and others who were not qualified, who did not summon him, were waiting for Zhao Ji in Wende Hall.

Usually, after the meeting in the Chuigong Hall, Prime Minister Wang Fu would go to the Wende Hall to order the ministers to line up. If he announced that Zhao Ji would not sit in the court, he would immediately release the court.

During the first few court meetings that Cai Shen attended, they were disbanded by Wang Fu before Zhao Ji came.

In fact, the Song Dynasty was quite loose. Even if it was late, it could slip in like no one else. It was like college students in later generations who were late for class. Not to mention that the emperor was generally not here, even if the emperor was there, they would usually pretend not to see it. Some late ministers would be impeached by the censor, and the emperor would generally not deal with it. If the ministers did too much and often absent from work and were late, the emperor would punish him to think about his mistakes at home.

This also leads to the fact that small officials like Cai Shen often come to attend court meetings to follow the situation and process.

Cai still thought that today's court meeting would be the same as before. When Wang Fu and his friends met Zhao Ji in Chuigong Hall, Wang Fu would come and disband them all.

What a pity!

Cai still guessed the front, but failed to guess the back.

After the court was released, just as Cai Shen was about to leave with the crowd, a small eunuch suddenly appeared and called Cai Shen: "Please stay, your Majesty, please wait."
