Your Majesty's trick is clever, it's really clever! ”

The ministers were silent, and no one dared to stand up against it at this time.

Liu Jian, the first assistant of the cabinet, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Carefully look at the cause of the whole thing, and you can clearly see the layout of Emperor Hongzhi.

First, the Tartars went south, and Emperor Hongzhi's side was determined to fight with the Tartars, changing the previous passive defensive policy and taking the initiative to fight the Tartars in the wild.

If he wins, this will naturally be a good thing, and his prestige as Emperor Hongzhi can rise to the sky and establish his prestige.

If the battle is lost, Emperor Hongzhi can casually find an excuse to strictly find out the problems existing in the Ming army, and then, like now, he will go on a killing spree, and the ministers who killed him will be frightened, and it will be natural that he can take back the military power.

There are too many problems in the Ming army, and this is not only because the civilian clique controls the military power, but because of the combination of many aspects, there is everything now.

The reason found by Emperor Hongzhi is also very sufficient, that is, the current Ming army has no combat effectiveness at all, and there is no way to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the family and defending the country, and it has reached the time when the system must be reformed.

Originally, there was nothing about this reform, the key was that the reform was just an excuse, and the real purpose was to take back the military power into the hands of the emperor, and from then on, the military department no longer held the military power, but was only responsible for some military-related things, and the military power returned to the hands of the emperor again.

"What do you think?"

"Everybody talk, talk freely."

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but smile and asked again.

"I think it's inappropriate~"

At this time, a head iron Yushi stood up and said very uprightly.

"Oh, Dong Aiqing thinks there's something wrong?"

Emperor Hongzhi looked at this imperial history and asked lightly.

"This military system is the ancestral system and the foundation of the country, so how can it be easily reformed."

"And this military power has always belonged to the Ministry of War, and the military is the ancestral system to prevent the emergence of military generals usurping the throne and seizing power, and the military system will be changed, I am afraid that the society will be shaken and the country will change hands."

"Your Majesty, the military system cannot be changed!"

Dong Yushi said bitterly.

There are two core points in his words, one is that the current military system is the ancestral system, which has been handed down by the ancestors, and cannot be easily changed, and the second is that the military department cannot change the power, and the tradition of using literature to unify the military cannot be changed, otherwise there will be military generals usurping the throne and seizing power, and the society will be shaken.

"Your Majesty, what Dong Gong said is reasonable, the military system cannot be changed, please think twice, Your Majesty."

There was obviously more than one person in the head, and some ministers stood up to oppose it.

With someone to start, suddenly in the hall, people stood up one after another to express their opposition, the military power is too important, once it is withdrawn into the hands of the emperor, it means that it will be difficult for their ministers to restrict the imperial power in the future.

Since ancient times, the power has come out of the barrel of a gun, and the person in charge of military power has the hardest waist, and the emperor has military power, and they who are courtiers have no good life.

Emperor Hongzhi looked coldly at the ministers who jumped out one by one, but he had already remembered them all in his heart.

After thinking about it, Emperor Hongzhi looked at the British Duke Zhang Mao.

Zhang Mao saw Emperor Hongzhi's eyes, and immediately understood what to do, this change in the military system is a good thing for them, the military generals and noble group.

This military power returned to the hands of the emperor, and naturally it would be delegated to the hands of these military generals and nobles, and the era of civil and military domination would be gone forever.

Moreover, Zhang Mao is also a big capitalist now, and now he has slowly tasted the benefits of foreign trade, and he also knows that in foreign trade, these capitalists urgently need a strong Ming Dynasty to support.

This powerful Ming Dynasty is not only strong in national strength, but more importantly strong in force, and can sweep away all the obstacles that prevent them capitalists from making a fortune.

To give a very simple example, the merchant ships going to Korea are now under the influence and harassment of pirates and pirates, and they used to be able to go once a month, but because of the influence of pirates and pirates, everyone has become cautious and frightened, and they are a little afraid to go to sea.

Originally, it stands to reason that the sailors of the Ming Dynasty should have been dispatched to exterminate the pirates and pirates along the way, so as to facilitate the exchange of merchant ships, but the sailors of the Ming Dynasty were able to exterminate the pirates and pirates?

I'm afraid that I can't even find the pirates and pirates anywhere, and even if they do, with the current situation of the Ming Navy, it is impossible to exterminate the pirates and pirates.

In addition, the big silver mine of the Wa Kingdom that Liu Jin said, they have also sent someone to find it, and the reserves in Iwami of the Wa Kingdom are very huge, which makes people extremely red.

Zhang Mao, these emerging capitalists, want to eat this fat meat, but this silver mine is in the Wa country, and if they want to eat this silver mine, can the Wa people easily agree?

In the final analysis, in the end, it is still necessary to solve the problem with fists, and only if the Japanese people are afraid, they will naturally send the silver mine up.

But with the current army of the Ming Dynasty, can you conquer the Wa Kingdom?

This is only the promotion of Korea and the Japanese Kingdom, and in the future, they will go to Nanyang, Luzon, the Golden Continent, Australia, South Asia, Africa and Europe, etc., these places have infinite wealth, but if you want to do business safely, you must have a strong Ming army to escort you.

Obviously, the current Ming army is unable to complete this mission and task, so it must be a military system.

It is unrealistic to expect the Ming army controlled by these civilian cliques, and it is necessary to take back the military power, and then carry out a thorough restructuring of the Ming army, and establish a strong Ming army to escort the expansion and capital development of the Ming Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that my Ming army is in disrepute, low in combat effectiveness, and full of ills, and can no longer defend the country.

"It is indeed time to have to restructure, and the minister thinks that His Majesty's reform method is far-sighted and far-sighted, which is for the long-term consideration of my Ming Dynasty and the people of China."

Zhang Mao slapped Emperor Hongzhi's sycophants indiscriminately, which made Emperor Hongzhi smile with satisfaction.

"Your Majesty, what Zhang Gong said is reasonable, my Ming army has accumulated a lot of difficulties, and when it is time to take heavy medicine, it must be reformed, and it must be reformed in depth, and a strong army will come out, so that my Ming Dynasty will have no boundless trouble."

With Zhang Mao at the beginning, Chengguo Gong Zhu Fu also expressed his support.

Chengguo Gong, Dingguo Gong, and British Gong are almost all representatives of the military generals and noble groups, and they all wear a pair of pants, Zhang Mao and Zhu Fu expressed their support, and the military generals and noble groups also spoke one after another to express their support.

This is absolutely beneficial to them, and they can't support it.

"Liu Aiqing, what do you think?"

Emperor Hongzhi had a smile on his face, and then looked at Liu Jian, he was the first assistant of the cabinet, the head of the hundred officials, and the head of the civil officials, and his opinion was very important.

"Minister... The minister thought that the Ming army had indeed reached the point where it had to be restructured, but how to change it still needed to come up with a detailed charter. ”

Liu Jian pondered, thought about it, and said slowly.

He knew very well why Emperor Hongzhi wanted to open the killing ring this time, and he also knew clearly that if Emperor Hongzhi could not achieve his goal of recovering military power, then more ministers would be implicated, and more people would move here in Caishikou.

Emperor Hongzhi has already grabbed many people's pigtails in his hands.

As far as he Liu Jian is concerned, it is the same, Liu Yu and he are fellow countrymen, or he recommended him, and he does not receive Liu Yu's filial piety every year, this alone is enough to make Liu Jian have no good life.

To tell the truth, there are few butts in this court that are clean, and you can find out with a casual check, it used to be Emperor Hongzhi stupid, and he didn't know how to use the power of the factory guards, but now there are factory guards.

Coupled with the theft of the official warehouse, the Li Guang case, and the current case, no one knows how many pigtails Emperor Hongzhi has in his hand.

As a smart man and at the same time a qualified politician, he knew that at this time, it was time to compromise.

This military power will be taken back by Emperor Hongzhi, and if it is not taken back, more people will die, and in the end, Emperor Hongzhi can still forcibly implement a new military reform and take back the military power.

If we make a political compromise now and let Emperor Hongzhi take back military power, we can hold the heads of many people and protect the interests of the civilian clique, otherwise the losses will only be greater.

Hearing Liu Jian's words, Emperor Hongzhi nodded with satisfaction, as long as he supports the reform, this military power is in his own hands, as for how to change, it is the matter of the following people, and he Hongzhi Emperor does not need to worry too much.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled with satisfaction, but the civil officials in the court were dumbfounded, and they all looked at Liu Jian, the meaning is obvious, Liu Jian, are you having a fever in your brain.

At this time, he actually supported Emperor Hongzhi to change the military system, and as soon as the military system was changed, this power would be in the hands of Emperor Hongzhi, and it would be impossible to return to the hands of the civilian clique in the future.

It is impossible for the Ming Dynasty to have a second Tumubao Rebellion, nor can there be a second Yu Qian, they have no chance to snatch military power from the emperor's hands again.

"The minister also feels that the military system has reached the time to change, my Ming Dynasty has been suffering from the border troubles over the years, and the border people have suffered greatly, I have a million troops in the Ming Dynasty, but there is no way to take the small grassland tartars, and the root of all this is still in the military system."

Li Dongyang is also a smart and understanding person, he has long seen that Emperor Hongzhi is looking for this opportunity to take back military power, so after Liu Jian expressed his position, he also stood up smartly to express his support for Emperor Hongzhi.

Xie Qian looked at Liu Jian and Li Dongyang, and immediately understood, so he also stood up to express his support.

"Your Majesty, the minister is opposed, the minister wants to impeach Liu Jian, the down payment of the cabinet, and impeach the cabinet Li Dongyang and Xie Qian.

At this time, Dong Yushi stood up again, and like a mad dog, he directly bit the three elders of the cabinet, and directly put on the hat of a corpse vegetarian meal for the three of them.

The small system is big, which is also a characteristic of the politics of the Ming Dynasty, the grade of the imperial history is very low, but it is possible to directly impeach the cabinet ministers, and they impeach, there is no need for any evidence at all, just a mouth.

"Your Majesty, the military system is the ancestral system, it is the foundation of the country, and it cannot be easily shaken, this military department is in charge of the army, and it is also for the sake of the Ming Dynasty for thousands of generations, to prevent the military generals from usurping power and seizing the throne."

After the impeachment of the three cabinet elders, he said bitterly, in his opinion, as soon as the military system is changed, the Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji will be shaken, and at the same time, it is very likely that there will be a military general in a yellow robe like Zhao Kuangyin in the future.

Of course, these are all excuses, and the real reason is that he is afraid that the civilian clique will lose its military power, and this Hongzhi Emperor can take back his military power today, and he can take back more power tomorrow.

Similarly, once the military system is changed, the military generals and noble groups that have been suppressed with great difficulty will inevitably resurge, and from then on, the Ming Dynasty will no longer be the final say of these civilian officials.

This is the fundamental reason for the opposition of these civilian cliques, and in the final analysis, it is the interest strata that determine their respective positions.

"Ancestry?"

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Dong Yushi coldly, and then said with a sneer: "I don't learn history very well, please tell me Aiqing, what was the military system like during the Taizu and Chengzu periods?" ”

"Your Majesty, the military system of the Taizu and Chengzu periods is no different from the present, and the existing military system is set by His Majesty Taizu, and it is the foundation of the Ming Dynasty for thousands of generations."

When Dong Yushi heard this, he thought about it and said.

"It's the same?"

Emperor Hongzhi smiled, finally seeing the shamelessness of these civil bureaucratic groups.

You actually told me that it is no different, the old ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang needs to obtain the consent of your civilian clique to transfer troops?

Hearing Emperor Hongzhi's rhetorical question, and then looking at Emperor Hongzhi's cold eyes, Dong Yushi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and then remembered that thousands of people had lost their heads during this time.

Thinking of this, I immediately felt a chill in my neck, and then suddenly it was like a deflated balloon.

Everyone is afraid of death, and so is he.

As for saying that he left a name in history and died with direct advice, it also depends on the situation, when he meets a good-tempered emperor, such as the former Hongzhi Emperor, everyone is very happy to spray the Hongzhi Emperor's face.

However, the current Emperor Hongzhi, this clearly wants to take back the military power, if he is tough with Emperor Hongzhi, he may die in vain, Emperor Hongzhi has already killed thousands of people, and it is estimated that he will not care about killing one more of himself.

After thinking about these things clearly, and then looking at the important ministers in the DPRK and China, everyone is very smart like Liu Jian and Li Dongyang, even if there are a thousand disagrees and do not support them in their hearts, but at least they will not stand up and oppose it as stupidly as themselves, and even the smart ones will express their support.

Dong Yushi understood at once, and then sighed helplessly, after all, this Ming is still their old Zhu family.

The whole hall was silent, and there were many smart people, all of whom expressed their opinions, expressing their support for Emperor Hongzhi's reform, and feeling that Emperor Hongzhi was far-sighted and far-sighted.

As for the fool of Toutie, in the face of such a general trend, he is also powerless, and there is no way to stop Emperor Hongzhi from recovering military power.

"Since everyone expresses their support, then this matter is decided, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, Zhang Mao, the three of you can come up with a restructuring plan."

Emperor Hongzhi was very satisfied with this result, although some people objected, but most of them were smart people, so in the end he also handed over the restructuring to Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, and Zhang Mao, which could be regarded as saving some face for the civil official group.
