Chapter 212: Calculation and Children Can Be Taught

As the saying goes, a scholar's rebellion will not succeed in three years, although Emperor Taizu of this dynasty can be regarded as a scholar, but in the end, he turned into a fierce and courageous smuggler of salt. Wenchen did not have military power, and the absence of military power meant that there was no military support. Without the support of force, even if there is a desire to usurp the throne, it is simply impossible.

Since the Later Han Dynasty, the real threat to the throne has been almost all military generals, except for a few children of the family like Sima Zhao and Yang Jian. From Liu Yu to Chen Baxian, isn't that a military general who has mastered military power? Military generals have no prestige in the army and cannot lead soldiers. But if the prestige is too high, it will also pose a fatal threat to the imperial power.

If this person really has too much prestige in the Xiao Cavalry Camp, then it is indeed a hidden danger. The king of Huaiyang County back then, because of his outstanding military achievements, formed a very high prestige in the army. Among the military attaches who were not born in the family, a group of die-hard loyalists were formed, so that they had the strength to seek the dynasty and usurp the throne, and they were almost one step away from success.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, he has repeatedly asked generals not to specialize in the army, and the reason why he has repeatedly adjusted the military system is not to avoid another occurrence of military generals with too much power, and finally pose a threat to the imperial court? Although this person can't see this threat yet, what is the Riding Battalion? It was used by the imperial court to protect the Gyeonggi stronghold and protect the elite of the field.

The four major battalions in the capital must not once again form a situation similar to that when they were controlled by others, and the will of the individual rather than the imperial court was transferred. It is even more impossible for the imperial court to allow any general's prestige to be above the imperial court, that is, above his own head. Even if it's just a cavalry battalion, there must not be a little sign of it.

This person was transferred to the commander of the cavalry battalion, but in more than two years, he was able to train an army full of proud soldiers and fierce generals, and he trained it like a command, which shows his strong ability. Add too much prestige, then it is a blessing and a curse for the court. There is still one year before the expiration of one term, and if it continues according to the current situation, what will happen after the expiration of the three-year term?

There is no need to talk about the ancients, just his former father-in-law is a full lesson from the past. If he is transferred out in advance, this person will have great achievements. Although he is a civilian official, he can be regarded as one of the few famous generals since he was in power. Transferring out early is bound to cause dissatisfaction. With this person's prestige in the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, the soldiers of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion may not be convinced.

Even if you don't dare to make any mistakes, if it really causes dissatisfaction in the army, it may not be really a good thing for the imperial court. Especially at a time when we are in an eventful season, the elite field army like the Xiaocai Battalion is uneasy, and if it is not done well, it will lead to serious consequences. But if it is promoted because of military exploits, it will be logical.

Meritorious service is not rewarded, this has always been a taboo. And if you are promoted in advance after making military achievements, others can't say anything. Even the soldiers of the cavalry battalion will not have any dissatisfaction. That is, it cuts off the potential threats that may exist in the imperial court, and blocks the mouths of other people, and it is unlikely to cause any dissatisfaction among the soldiers of the Xiaocai battalion.

Thinking of this, the emperor picked up Huang Qiong's recital and read it for the third time, and directly picked up the pen to approve the word quasi-play. After thinking about it, he criticized the four words that the children can teach. After reviewing Huang Qiong's excerpts, the emperor already planned to promote this person to the rank of deputy envoy of the Privy Council after returning from Zhengzhou.

Although there are some promotions from the third grade to the second grade, it is easy to say anything with military merits, isn't it? But there is one thing, this person can't let him lead the troops directly anyway. The adjustment of the four battalions in the capital and the promotion and transfer of military attaches have always been approved by Yubi himself.

The emperor knew too well what these four battalions looked like, from military attachés at all levels to ordinary soldiers below. In just two years, this person has been reorganized to such a point that Enwei and Shi have reorganized a group of arrogant soldiers and fierce generals, and his means of control can be seen in general. This kind of killing is certainly unkillable, and killing will chill the heart of the military attaché.

This kind of capable person should use it, but many times it is more necessary to guard against it. Because once this kind of person has ambitions, the threat to the imperial court is too great. Moreover, this person not only has great military achievements, but also is from a two-rank jinshi, and he may not have any influence on civilian officials. This kind of person who has both civil and military skills must be used, but how to prevent it is a headache.

It's better to put him in the center, under the nose of the imperial court. In addition, it can be put in the military department or the Privy Council, and it can also be mixed with sand. Let those corpses eat vegetarian positions, which are called three busyness by the people. Shang Chao nodded and was busy, busy running errands and making money, and the guy who was busy with the beautiful woman at home had a little sense of urgency.

After making up his mind, the emperor put down Huang Qiong's fold. He also picked up the excerpt that he had appointed as the disposal envoy of Ruzhou, and at the same time as Huang Qiong went to the Xiaoqi camp, he went to the Xin'an Ruijian camp to sit in the king of Shu. Looking at the two folds delivered by the front and back feet, but the contents were very different, the emperor fell into deep thought.

Compared with Huang Qiong, in the excerpt, he proposed to use the current commander of the Xiaocai battalion as the deputy envoy, and was fully responsible for the military affairs. In addition to trying to solve a hidden hidden danger, he also told himself in disguise that he had no idea about meddling in the military affairs of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion. The King of Shu's excerpt has a lot of requirements.

In addition to arrogance and lawlessness and disobedience to the imperial decrees, he asked the emperor to remove the commander of Ruijianying. He also asked the current right deputy of the Privy Council to accept the decree and take over as the commander of the Ruijian Battalion and his own deputy. And this right deputy is the commander, the emperor remembers that he was transferred from the deputy envoy of the West Sichuan Road Jiedu last year to the Privy Council as the right deputy to the decree.

Before, he had also been serving on the West Sichuan Road where the Chengdu Mansion of the King of Shu was located, and even when the King of Shu was in the domain, he served as the envoy of the Chengdu Mansion. Later, although he was successively promoted to Hanzhong Military Preparation Road and Deputy Envoy of West Sichuan Road, he went around and around where he served and did not leave West Sichuan Road too far.

The commanders of the four battalions were all personally selected by the emperor. Talent and ability, the emperor is naturally clear in his heart. The commander of the Xiaocai battalion is capable, but the commander of the Ruijian battalion is not a waste, there is no doubt about this. How can there be two very different situations between the two princes?

Even if the commander of the Ruijian battalion is arrogant, there is one thing that the emperor still believes. That is, the commander of the guard, will never resist and disobey, let alone disobey the imperial decrees. Even compared to the commander of the cavalry battalion who was converted from a civilian official to a military position, the commander of the Ruijian battalion, who was born as a guard, was even better in terms of loyalty.

Looking at the two folds on the imperial case, after pondering the successor proposed by the King of Shu. The emperor lifted the pen and put it on the fold of the King of Shu, and also approved the word quasi-play. And attached another line, the original commander of the envoy immediately returned to Beijing and made another appointment. The two books have different contents, but the results are the same, and they were immediately sent to the Xiaoqi Camp and the Ruijian Camp at the fastest speed.

After receiving the emperor's instructions, Huang Qiong did not think about what the old man was thinking. Even when he saw the four words on the secret fold that could be taught, Huang Qiong didn't care. Seeing that the old man had agreed to his request, he immediately summoned the commander of the capital to him, and directly and honestly informed him of his thoughts and the emperor's reply.

At this moment, I don't know that although the prince in front of him is young, the city is so deep. He was calculated by him and the emperor together, and after this battle, no matter whether he won or lost, he would be transferred from the command of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion. Although he was somewhat mentally prepared for the emperor's final point to his head.

But when the matter really fell on his head, he was not happy because he was respected, but with a dignified face. This war is really not a big war among the wars he has experienced. The rabble under King Jing's command, he didn't look at it at all.

As a military attaché, especially the kind of military attache who comes up step by step on the battlefield. To be honest, no matter how many military horses King Jing has, it is not a matter in his eyes. Because he knows too well how much effort and how much money and food an army needs to pay from recruiting to forming combat effectiveness and finally winning the battle.

Although King Jing is said to be powerful and wealthy, compared to a country, his money is nothing. The amount of money spent on raising soldiers for a year can be described as a huge amount. And the amount of money spent to feed and train an army that can be pulled out to fight is even more astronomical. Military salaries, armor, war horses, and blades all require a lot of money to be smashed into them.

Even if he King Jing is bankrupt, even if he can make money, I'm afraid he won't be able to support much. And he also lacked a sound military attaché system to train an army for him. The private soldiers recruited by King Jing can be called a rabble, which can already be regarded as giving him face.

And the Xiaocai battalion under his command was brought out by himself, and he still knew how much combat strength he had. To say that one fights ten is an exaggeration, and it is no problem to be able to fight five against one. What's more, when it comes to the battlefield, it is not a one-man battle, it is a rather technical job.

What is the formation needed for the immediate confrontation of the enemy, how many military horses are needed for flank support, and how many military horses are needed for head-on confrontation. When to attack, when to retreat, when to outflank are all tests for a general. That King Jing, it is impossible to find this kind of talent. So for the war, this is located in the command envoy did not take it seriously at all.

He is dignified because this kind of war seems to be easy to fight, but in fact it is the most difficult to fight. There is no other reason, it is because of the emperor who sent him to the emperor. If this British king intervenes everywhere, how can he command this war? When the time comes, the credit will be given to others. defeated, it is estimated that the responsibility is all their own.

The British king did not interfere in military affairs two days ago, who can guarantee that he can still guarantee that he will be on the battlefield? When the time comes, what can I do with him? In the army, he was not born in a family, and he was able to get to where he is today, all because of his own battles, although he can't compete for merit, but he really doesn't want to be this scapegoat.

Seeing this commander, after listening to the results of his own announcement, his face was solemn. Huang Qiong, who guessed what he was thinking, smiled and said: "Commander Yu Du has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he must have a plan in his heart about this battle. This king also believes that with the ability to command the envoy, he will definitely not disappoint the emperor. ”

"No matter what you think, this king is the sentence, and you are in charge of military affairs. How to fight is your business, and this king will never interfere. As for other things, the envoy of Yu Du did not have to worry. After the victory, the credit is still your cavalry battalion, and this king is not interested in taking the credit of his subordinates. That kind of thing, this king still disdains to do. ”

"And this king is already a prince, even if he has military merits, he can't be promoted, right? Since this king has guaranteed his father to be the commander of the capital, he will naturally not fight for this, for this king, it is not even a small profit, but it has chilled the hearts of the majority of soldiers, and it will hurt the small profits of the hearts of all adults. ”

"So if you fight well, the credit is still yours, so you can fight boldly and boldly. Even if you take 10,000 steps back and say, if it is really unfavorable this time, all the blame will be borne by this king for you. You were recommended by this king, and if it really came to that point, this king would definitely not be able to escape at least one crime of employing people without noticing. ”
