Chapter 873: Sixteen Guards
This is Liang Xu's first marriage in the Divine Domain, so it is very lively, and it is also a major event in the Divine Domain, which is firmly remembered.
After the two officially got married, the Sima family and the Divine Lord's Mansion also became in-laws, and they began to turn to this side in their hearts.
began to provide the Divine Domain with the things of the Demon Realm, and I said before that although they are no longer in the Demon Realm, they still have some understanding of the things in the Demon Realm, and they are related to the Sima family, so it is still a great help.
"Father-in-law, do you mean these people still listen to you?"
Liang Xu looked at Sima Heng, not with doubts, but with considerable doubts.
Your Sima family is very good, and it is also in the Demon Realm, and now that you have been away from the Demon Realm for so many years, you are still like this, isn't that a bit arrogant.
The county officials might as well be in charge now, let alone your outdated Sima family.
Although Liang Poyu said that the Sima family is still influential in the demon world, and many people are subordinates of the Sima family at the beginning, but this bad karma can't explain anything.
Liang Xu remained skeptical about this, after so many years, how much of the original love can be left, this is simply bullish.
"Less God Lord is too worried!"
Sima Heng glanced at Liang Xu, and now he calls Liang Xu the Young Divine Master, which is a symbol of status, and it is even more etiquette, which cannot be abolished at all.
"Although my Sima family can't say that they can cover the sky with one hand in the demon world, can walk sideways, and have been away for so long, but they can't see our Sima family clearly because of this, our Sima family still has the background. ”
The background of the Sima family does exist.
At the beginning, the Sima family was just a small family in the Demon Realm, but later they had a relationship with the Demon Lord, and slowly developed and grew, and even by the tenth generation, the Sima family had become the largest family in the Demon Realm, and could even influence the decision-making of the Demon Realm.
In the twelfth, the Sima family became the Zaifu family of the Mo family, and it became the largest family.
You may not understand the meaning of the first family, it is not only nominal, but also substantive, how to say?
The Sima family has its own private army and its own power to recommend talents, so many people came from the Sima family at that time.
"We're a family, so don't call this stinky boy a young god!"
Liang Poyu said with a smile.
"Etiquette cannot be abolished, and the young god lord may have a little misunderstanding of my Sima family, although we left the demon world, but the power of our Sima family is still there, and six of the sixteen guards are now all promoted by our Sima family, maybe the young god lord doesn't know about this promotion, in fact, he is a retainer of my Sima family. ”
The word retainer is derived from Huaxia.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, the ministers of various countries were vassals. The head of the Qing doctor's family is called Zai, and there are various official positions under Zai, and they are collectively called retainers. Later, it also refers to the private ministers of princes and princes.
"Zuo Chuan: Twenty-five Years of Zhaogong": "The uncle and grandson's Sima said to his people, 'What if?' is not right. He also said, 'My retainers dare not know the country.' ’”
"Historical Records: The Family of Confucius" "Confucius is suitable, he is a retainer of Gao Zhaozi, and he wants to pass through Jinggong." ”
"Hanshu, Confucianism, Zhang Shanlian" "Virtue is worthy of Zhou Zhao, loyal to the "Lamb", did not get to the Situ, there are retainers, and he died early, especially mourning!"
Yan Shigu notes: "Retainers, if the current principality officials and mansions are also." ”
Qing Gu Yanwu's poem "Seventy-two Disciples" "The door is only the season, and he is not willing to be a minister." ”
Fan Wenlan, Cai Meibiao, et al., "General History of China", Part I, Chapter 4, Section 1: "The strength that Qiangzong relies on is mainly scholars. This kind of taxi who served in the family of the emperor was also called a retainer, and the retainer was loyal to the family. ”
But in the realm of the gods, the retainer is really like a later minion, once a retainer, he has been a retainer for generations, no matter how high your status is, you are still a retainer in front of the clamp.
Later, the retainers got mixed up, and the head of the house became a beggar, but when you see the head of the house, you still have to be polite.
This is the Divine Domain, a bit similar to the Eight Banners system in the Manqing era, and the banner master of the Eight Banners is a bullish character.
I remember watching a comedy in the outside world, Ji Xiaolan with iron teeth and bronze teeth, yes
He Shen immediately knelt down to greet him when he saw Jin Da Cigarette Bag, and Jin Da Tobacco Bag also said that even if he asked for food on the street, He Shen would have to kneel down when he saw him, and what was the secret of this? It turned out that when he was in Manchuria, the Eight Banners system was established. The eight flags are the yellow flag, the yellow flag, the white flag, the white flag, the red flag, the red flag, the blue flag, and the blue flag.
Uncle Jin, the owner of the Eight Banners, even if he asks for food on the street, he has to kneel down to say goodbye when he sees him
He Shen is high and powerful, under one person, above 10,000 people. How could he kneel down to a beggar, it turns out that there is a reason why this Uncle Jin is so arrogant. He Shen's background is the Red Banner, this Uncle Jin is the owner of the Red Flag in history, and his seniority is higher than that of Emperor Qianlong.
Uncle Jin, the owner of the Eight Banners, even if he asks for food on the street, he has to kneel down to say goodbye when he sees him
In the Eight Banners system, no matter what position you occupy and how much power you have in your hands, you will have to be a cut lower when you encounter the flag owner in this flag. In fact, it is the ancestor in this flag, how can you not kneel when you see the ancestor. But maybe it's a bit exaggerated in the TV series.
But in the demon world, it is even more bullish than that, the retainer is a retainer all his life, and he still has his children and grandchildren when he dies, they are retainers for the rest of their lives.
Even if you become a high official, you have to bow when you see the head of the family.
"Father-in-law, although they were retainers of the Sima family at that time, there is no guarantee that they will still listen to the Sima family?"
Liang Xu won't believe it so much, in this era, there is power and everything, although they were your retainers before, but now that they have a lot of power, they will listen to you, you are a joke, ridiculous.
Liang Xu still hasn't said a word, that is, you have all been away for so many years, and you defected at the beginning, and now if you say a word, people can listen to you.
How likely is this point, Liang Xu doesn't want to say it too directly, save face for him, in fact, anyone can see what Liang Xu wants to say is that people won't listen to you at all, so don't be stupid.
"I know what the young god lord wants to say, but you don't know why these retainers are so loyal, in fact, these are some secrets involving the demon world, even people who are retainers will not say it, they only follow the family master closely. ”
Sima Heng said suddenly, which made people puzzled, but Sima Heng still didn't say it in public, these things would involve a lot of things, and even cause a huge storm, so he didn't dare to say it.
But in private, Liang Xu finally knew why the retainers were so loyal, and if they were not loyal, they would die.
The big families of the demon world will have a special medicine to give to their own people, and after these retainers take it, they will have to take the antidote for the rest of their lives, and they can't be lifted at all.
There are also restrictions on this kind of medicine, and it must be voluntary when taking it, so that it can be in harmony with the true soul, so that the drug can be effective, otherwise it will be in vain.
This also prevents this need from being used indiscriminately.
"You mean, the antidote to this medicine is only available to the master's family?"
Liang Xu was really shocked, he couldn't imagine that there was such a medicine!
"Yes, otherwise I wouldn't dare to say that those people would listen to my Sima family. ”
What is even more terrifying about this medicine is that it can be inherited, once it is taken, then his children will also be inherited in the future, so there are retainers who have been passed down from generation to generation, so to eliminate a family, all their retainers must be eliminated, and this is the complete elimination of this family.
When the Sima family suffered a catastrophe, most of their retainers died, but not many of them escaped the cleanup, such as the current six guards of the sixteen guards, they were all lucky at the beginning, but now they have become the leaders of the sixteen guards of the demon world.
"No wonder, in this way, there is such a new force on my father-in-law's side, and the Sixteen Guards are the elite of the elite of the Demon Realm, and I am a little skeptical that the Lord of the Demon Realm that was originally established is not coming from the outside. ”
Liang Xu has a certain reason for saying this, after all, the Sixteen Guards were very famous in ancient China, for example, in the Tang Dynasty, the Sixteen Guards were famous, and almost all of the famous generals in the Tang Dynasty held positions in the Sixteen Guards.
When Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was in the beginning, he set up a military attache of the Department of Guards, who commanded the soldiers of the government to guard the palace and forbid, and there was also the Wuhou Mansion, which commanded the soldiers of the government to patrol the capital, and each placed a doctor. This is the beginning of the separation of the guards and the command of the military guards.
At the beginning of the Sui Dynasty, along the system of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, twelve prefectures were set up to command the soldiers of the Janissaries, which was the predecessor of the Sixteen Guards. In the twelve mansions of the early Sui Dynasty, only the left and right guards, the left and right military guards, and the left and right Wuhou six mansions led the soldiers and guards.
In the third year of Emperor Yang's great cause, the twelve mansions were changed to twelve guards and four mansions, collectively known as the sixteen guards or sixteen mansions.
Its twelve guards are the left and right Yi guards, the left and right Xiao (riding) guards, the left and right military guards, the left and right tun guards and the left and right prison gates (still named). The 12 guards guarded the capital, the four provinces did not control the soldiers, the left and right reserve houses were responsible for guarding the emperor, and the left and right prison houses were in charge of the palace access control.
The soldiers under the command of the 12 guards are called "foreign armies", and each has the following military names: Xiao Cavalry (belonging to the left and right Yiwei), Leopard Riding (belonging to the left and right Xiao Wei), Xiongqu (belonging to the left and right Wuwei), Yulin (belonging to the left and right Tun Wei), Shooting (belonging to the left and right imperial guards) and Fei Fei (belonging to the left and right waiting guards).
In addition, the left and right Yiwei also led the "internal army". "Internal Army" refers to the soldiers of the Five Military Mansions under the command of the pro, Xun, and Wu Sanfu (the first Sui Dynasty, Xun, Yi Sanwei, and the same as the early Sui Dynasty) under the command of the Left and Right Yiwei subordinates, and the soldiers of the Three Guards and Three Mansions under the East Palace, all of which are served by the children of high-ranking officials.
At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, it followed the old system of Kaihuang and was still called the Sixteen Mansions.
In the second year of Longshuo), when Tang Gaozong changed the name of a hundred officials, it was officially called Sixteen Wei.
There are 16 guards in the center, of which 12 guards are the leading bodies of the government soldiers, the left and right guards, the left and right Xiao guards, the left and right military guards, the left and right Weiwei, the left and right leading guards and the left and right Jinwu guards;
and set up a nationwide "Zhechong Mansion"; The "Twelve Guards" led the 657 Zhichong Mansions in the world, and led the military mansions to Chang'an to guard the government soldiers, in the middle of the imperial perimeter, and the garrison of the Beijing Division, which was the unity of the government soldiers and the forbidden army.
Sixteen guards, and the other four guards are the left and right prison guards and the left and right thousand cow guards. The left and right prison guards are in charge of the gate guards, and the left and right Qianniu guards lead Qianniu to prepare for the emperor's attendant guards.
Because the Sixteen Guards Office is in the south of the Imperial Palace, it is known as the "Southern Yafu Soldiers" in history; The "Southern Yafu Soldiers" and the "Northern Ya Forbidden Army" guarding the north gate of the palace and the recruited soldiers were staggered and restrained each other.
There are 16 guards in the South Yafu Army, each with a general, a general, a lieutenant general, etc. The names of the chief and deputy governors of the "Zhichong Mansion" are changeable, and they were once known as "Deputy of the Military Chief's Mansion", "Hussar General, Che Cavalry General", and "General of the United Army", and Zhenguan was officially changed to "Zhichong Commander Guoyi Commander" in the tenth year.
This is the Praetorian Guard system created in the late Northern Zhou Dynasty and developed into the Sui and Tang dynasties to form a complete system of the Weitong Mansion - the Weifu system!
However, "there is no unbroken feast in the world", and there is no undefeated system. After the Tang Dynasty, the Juntian system was destroyed, the government military system collapsed, the sixteen guards lost their combat effectiveness, and they were only used for ceremonial decorations.
Only the name of the sixteen guards remained, and it was not abolished until the Jin dynasty five generations later. There is the Song generation, and there are sixteen sanitation "sanitation officers". However, the "Sixteen Guards" of the Song Dynasty were only a fictitious title. Because they are not functional institutions, they only have several honorary official positions such as "generals, generals, generals", etc., and have no functions, no powers, no subordinate soldiers, and no quotas.
The sixteen guards set up by the Demon Realm are a copy of that time, so Liang Xu is really more and more suspicious that how many people here have been outside, some of the systems in the Divine Domain are modeled after the outside, and the sixteen guards of the Demon Realm are also modeled after the outside.
This made him have to suspect that the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm had ever been outside, or that the person who founded the Sixteen Guards of the Demon Realm had ever been outside.
And it was also the Sui and Tang dynasties, after all, the combat effectiveness of the sixteen guards at that time was super strong, and the sixteen guards were set up to strengthen the power of the demon world.
At that time, it did have an effect, the Demon Realm invaded a large area of land in the south of the Divine Domain in one fell swoop, and the Divine Domain was suppressed at that time and had no power to resist.
"The combat effectiveness of the sixteen guards is strong, and six of them are actually their own people, so it will be easy to do, so it will be beneficial to us, sooner or later there will be a battle between the god domain and the demon world, and the only way to end it is to completely unify the god domain and the demon world, so that there will be no more battles. ”
If you want to stop fighting, there is only one unification.
