Yang Zhi put down his wine glass, "The national dynasty is really not suitable for Daxing swords now, first of all, there is no money, and the treasury is now empty, you can run mice, if it weren't for my side to use paper money to support the scene, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the officials to send out the money......"

"If you want to quell the rebellion in Hunchun, although the imperial court occupies the name of righteousness and can also attract the support of the princes outside the Guan, but such a large piece of land, less than 150,000 elite soldiers is absolutely not enough......"

"150,000 elite soldiers must be matched with 300,......000 people to transfer materials and provide support, and the local people involved can be even more millions, so much money can be used to get it?

"The first problem is money, and the second problem is whether you can win the war, don't forget that Hunchun is not acting without authorization, he still has His Majesty's holy decree in his hand, in fact, he really can't say that he is a rebel!"

"Once the sword soldiers are mobilized, it will be an admission to the whole world that the imperial court has been divided into two factions, what do foreigners think? What do Han people think? Will anyone use their brains?"

Li Tuo nodded: "Yes, not to mention that there is still a volunteer army in the Far East! Don't look at the army that has just formed, but it can win against the powerful Tsarist Russia, what do you say their combat effectiveness is? Will these people respond to Hunchun? I think it will be, this adds a few more variables......

Yang Zhi picked up a piece of Ma Lian meat and put it in his mouth, chewing the strong fragrance, and smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth: "The Volunteer Army is Xiao Letian's pawn, no matter how he plays in the Far East in the future, it will be his sphere of influence, what if he really provokes his Chinese army to participate in the war? Even if he doesn't participate in the war, it will be a big trouble to provide some arms and materials or something!"

"So, I don't think the chances of the court winning are high, and there is a seventy or eighty percent chance that it will definitely lose!"

Yi Cheng frowned, "Are you really so pessimistic?"

Yang Zhi and Li Tuo clapped their hands at the same time and said in unison, "Aren't you so pessimistic! What's even more terrifying is that who in the imperial court dares to let Prince Gong lead the troops?"

"30,000 Xishan New Army as the core, and then gather more than 100,000 Eight Banner disciples, as long as the soldiers move...... Hehehe, the imperial court can't control this army!"

"If the general is not subject to the orders of the foreign monarch, Yi can integrate these more than 100,000 people at will, listen to his high-ranking officials and Houlu, and do not listen to his framing and punishment, and use the 30,000 Xishan New Army as the skeleton to disrupt the establishment of more than 100,000 people and reorganize them, this is all his power!"

"When the army is integrated, the imperial court will not be able to take this army, all the middle and high-level officers are the descendants of the devil six, how do you say the court can control it? This will become the private army of the devil six!"

Li Tuo leaned back on the chair and stretched his waist, and roared without looking back, "Rouge Tiger...... Stir-fry a portion of your favorite hibiscus chicken slices, and warm a pot of wine!"

Listening to the promise of the rouge tiger and the little maid in the back room, Li Tuo drank a big glass comfortably, "Don't say that Prince Gong has no qi on him, I think he was a celebrity in front of Emperor Xuanzong back then, and the throne is almost his......"

"To put it mildly, this country was originally deceived by the former emperor, and the six devils of the people are expected to be higher than Xianfeng Ye! If one day he raises his arms and shouts, and more than 100,000 tigers under his command respond, what do you think the orphans and widows in the Forbidden City can do? Aren't they still waiting for a mutiny......

The eerie words made the back of his neck cold, "No...... After all, my imperial brother is the successor personally selected by the first examination, and the ministers support him...... No one...... No one will mess around with the sixth brother......"

"Cut ......" Yang Zhi pouted, he and Li Tuo had long been the descendants of Yi Cheng's side, and there was no need to hesitate to say a lot of rebellious words. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Cut...... Do you really believe in the Mandate of Heaven? It's not that the fist is big, it's just the truth, how did Yongzheng Ye get out of the throne back then? Qianlong Ye also had opponents who were assassinated...... Not to mention how your fourth brother and sixth brother competed during the Guang Dynasty......"

"In fact, it really doesn't matter who is the emperor in the eyes of the courtiers, anyway, there is no rule for the dynasty to pass on the eldest son......"

Yang Zhi is really right, the dynasties ruled by Han Confucian ideology all pay attention to primogeniture inheritance, which has a very strict set of rules, which is the ancient etiquette.

For a prince, the order of his succession depends first on the order of his birth, and secondly on the status of his mother. The boys born to the queen naturally have the right of first refusal, and the children of the concubines and others have to be postponed.

And the order is very important, the boss is born the prince, and the boss dies to have the opportunity to be the second and third, this is the Confucian etiquette, this kind of rule seems to be very unreasonable, because no one knows whether the boss is IQ enough, but in ancient times, this etiquette also had advantages.

That is to greatly avoid the civil strife caused by the prince's seizure of the heir to the country, which is actually a last resort to avoid internal friction.

This is not the case in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the tribal military alliance that came out of Baishan and Heishui believes most in strength, that is, meritocracy, the more sons, the better, but who can inherit the family business depends on whose ability is greater.

Kangxi had many sons, and many sons took the heirs in his later years, in fact, this itself is a scene that Kangxi is willing to see, only by fighting and killing, can the best descendants be singled out, and the dynasty can continue and become more and more prosperous.

There is nothing wrong with this truth in itself, it seems to be reasonable, but in the eyes of Confucian scholars like Zeng Guofan and Weng Tongyi, and even in the eyes of pseudo-Confucian students like Xiao Letian, this truth actually has a big loophole.

Putting many sons and daughters in the arena, fighting each other and fighting internally to choose the most powerful one, is the same as the reason why Tibetans raise Tibetan mastiffs.

Xiao Lotian met a Tibetan friend in college in his previous life, and this classmate once told a story that when Tibetan mastiffs were not very valuable in ancient times, Tibetans were all about natural selection.

The mother dog gives birth to a litter of puppies, digs a deep pit in the snow and puts all the dogs in it, and then does not feed until one of the puppies bites the other brothers to death, eats their meat and survives, so that the dog can be called a mastiff.

Just listening to this story, you can feel the bloody breath rushing to your face, when the princes of Kangxi fought for the throne in his later years, the bloody wind and rain within the Qing Dynasty was really full of unbearable memories, and there were more people who died.

Yang Zhi put down his wine glass and said very lonely, "Actually, the truth here, Xiao Lotian made it clear very early, this system of natural selection of heirs has one of the biggest prerequisites, that is, you have to have a lot of descendants to choose from, you must know that most people will not have more than three sons......"

"For example, Emperor Xianfeng, didn't he end up with this son? In this way, the natural selection of the Manchu people will cause huge hidden dangers......
