Chapter 1133: Lotus Mountain Camp (II)

(Kill a pig and stab the heart?) It's the first time I've heard of it.,In this way, there must be a pig to kill the tail.,Each has its own way of killing.,Hahaha! )

Touching the furoshiki, Xiang Zhen was startled.

"Why are there so many?" He asked.

Wang, who was eating brown rice, said vaguely: "I asked, some time ago, wasn't there a Yixing Society meeting in Chang'an?" Datang Weekly prints supplements every day, so it has accumulated so much. ”

"Every day?" Xiang Zhen took a deep breath, opened the furoshi, looked at the thick stack of Datang Weekly, and fell silent again.

He has always read Datang Weekly, and he knows very well that the headlines on the front page of Datang Weekly are all about the relevant policies of the Northern Tang Dynasty. From the inside, he can get a glimpse of a lot of information.

But he really didn't expect that during this period of time, Beitang would be so intensive. On either side of Chang'an, something terrible must have happened.

"Have you seen them all?" Looking at Wang You, who was about to finish a large bowl of brown rice, Xiang Zhen asked.

"As soon as I was sent here this morning, I ran to you, the general, and I didn't have time to see it!" Wang put the last bit of brown rice into his mouth, swallowed it, and picked up the soup bowl again, regardless of Xiang Zhen's already drunk it, he drank it directly in a few sips, and paused the bowl on the table with a bang.

"The first year of Xinghua!" Pick up the top piece of newspaper and shrink it to the real gaze.

"Yes, general, Li Ze has ascended the throne as the emperor, and the year name has been changed to the first year of Xinghua!" The king said again.

Xiang Zhen silently arranged a large pile of Datang Weekly newspapers by date, and picked up the top one.

"All those who are committed to our Chinese civilization are members of our great Chinese nation, and I will devote my whole life to making our great China stand tall among the nations of the world, and making our great Chinese empire a truly central country that will never fade."

Xiang Zhen chanted silently, but Li Ze seemed to appear standing in the center of the main hall, word by word, and his tone was sonorous to deliver a speech to his civil and military officials.

Li Ze will usurp the throne, this is not news on the southern side, everyone knows very well that this is something that will happen sooner or later. But a series of operations after Li Ze ascended the throne really shocked the south.

Xiang Zhen looked at these newspapers one by one, and with each copy, the look on his face became more complicated.

"He's actually decentralized." Putting down the newspaper in his hand, Xiang Zhen looked at Wang and said: "Li Ze has set up a supreme committee, and there are six people in this supreme committee, including Li Ze, and any major policy decisions must be made through this supreme committee." The other five people, one person, one vote, and Emperor Li Ze, with two votes. Whatever policy is implemented, it must first be adopted by a majority in this Supreme Council. In other words, if Li Ze wants to monopolize power, he must get the support of two more people. ”

Wang was stunned again, "Is there such a thing?" He, his approach, is really unexpected. But he's the emperor, and if he wants to flip the table, no one else can stop him, right? ”

"The emperor does not have a veto!" To the truth.

Hearing this, the king became excited: "General, this is a good thing! This means that the remaining five people have the ability to compete with Li Ze, we all know that once the power cannot be unified, there will definitely be problems, everyone's demands are different, Li Ze is self-destructing the Great Wall. Even though this person's current prestige is incomparable, as time goes by, the power of these people will grow stronger day by day, and one day, Li Ze will be cocooned and bound himself. ”

Xiang Zhen sighed and put a newspaper he had read in front of Wang You: "The emperor can always be in office, but the chairmen of these supreme committees have a term of office. Let's see, the maximum term of office cannot exceed two terms, that is, ten years. Ten days later, no matter how well you do, you have to step down and be replaced. Do you think that in ten years, these people are qualified to wrestle with Li Ze? ”

The king was deflated again.

"Isn't this a change of soup and not a change of medicine?"

"No, it's changed a lot." Xiang Zhen picked up another newspaper and said: "The formal training is about to begin, since you are here, go and take a look, keep an eye on it for me, let me take a good look at the news, I need time, take a good look at it, think about it." ”

The king stood up again, nodded, and said, "Okay." General, you watch first, I'll go outside and watch them train. ”

Just when he stepped out of the room, the assembly horn had already sounded outside, and the rumbling drums sounded, Wang turned around again, looked at Xiang Zhen, who was holding a newspaper and reading it carefully, and found that the other party's face was really a little bad.

Throughout the day, Wang had looked at Xiang Zhen's thatched house on the campus for the umpteenth time, but the door of the thatched house had never been opened.

Although there are many newspapers, you don't need to read them for a day, and even if you read all those small advertisements in the corners, it won't take so long.

When it was completely dark, and the second meal of the day had begun in the barracks, the king knocked on the door with two large bowls of food.

"Come in!" Xiang Zhen's voice came from the room.

Pushing open the door with his elbow, he looked at Xiang Zhendao: "General, is it so good-looking?" Aside from some of their policies, everything else is nothing more than something inexplicable. ”

In the room, newspapers were scattered all over the ground, and Xiang Zhen was writing the table, and when he heard this, he raised his head and said: "It's very interesting, in addition to these policies, even if you think these things are inexplicable, you can get a lot of mysteries out of them." If you pay attention, you can even deduce a lot of information about their economic situation, law and order situation, and so on. ”

"We have special people to do this kind of thing, so I don't bother with it!" The king put the big bowl in his hand in front of Xiang Zhen again: "General, let's eat first." This large bowl of tender lamb is specially presented to you by the whistle who received the reward today. The king said, "To tell the truth, the mental outlook of these soldiers is really new. I remember when I recruited them in, they were all yellow and thin, shrunken, and they didn't dare to look up at people. Now he speaks in front of me, but the voice is like a bell, and the atmosphere is very great! ”

"If we can't even make this change, how can we compete with Li Ze?" Xiang Zhen didn't eat, pushed the food aside, paced back and forth between the newspapers all over the floor, and said, "Wang, we need to make a change. ”

"Huh?" Wang glanced at Xiang Zhen a little strangely: "General, isn't everything we are doing now just for the sake of change?" ”

"I'm not talking about the two of us, not our army, but our entire South!" Xiang Zhen propped up the table with both hands, looking at Wang You with blazing eyes.

"General, we all know that with our current situation, we must make changes, but we are really soft-spoken now, and with all due respect, change means that many people will lose their current interests, do you think they will agree? The marshal has always said that what the Southern Alliance needs now is stability and unity, so it is absolutely impossible to make a big move. The king shook his head again.

"What Li Ze is doing now, I don't know if it will be good or bad in the future, but it is undeniable that he can completely stimulate everyone's energy in a short period of time. Because of these policies, he has really found a channel for ordinary people to go up. I carefully studied the lists of committees published in the Datang Weekly Newspaper, and each of these lists had a detailed biographical introduction. Do you know? The proportion of the children of the family and the scholarly family is less than 20%, and most of the rest are from poor families, and some are even the destitute class who originally had nothing. But after more than ten years of hard work, these people have gone from nothing to the ruling class of the Northern Tang Dynasty with their own efforts. This will attract countless people and inspire countless people to follow their example. ”

"That's the truth!" The king said again.

"Look at us again!" Xiang Zhen smiled bitterly: "Look at how many of our current imperial court are from poor families?" Even now in our army, aren't the people who hold the power of the army also nobles and generals? Those soldiers were so good that they rose to the rank of sentry, and it was difficult for them to go up. ”

"General, what the hell are you going to say?" Wang looked at Xiang Zhen suspiciously.

"Father said that we in the Southern Alliance need unity to defend against Li Ze. But are we really united? Xiang Zhen ignored Wang You, and continued: "In the first battle of Eyue, Qian Wenzhong refused to send troops, and Ding Taiyi refused to send troops. One by one, they all thought about their own one-third of an acre of land, thinking about their own lost interests, at that time I was soft-hearted, if at that time, he immediately seized Qian Wenzhong's military power and even directly abolished his position as an observer in Jiangxi, with our troops in Jiangxi at that time, could he make waves? If I had ignored Liu Xinda at that time, swung directly to Hunan, pulled out Ding Taiyi, swallowed their soldiers and horses, and turned around and fought against Shi Zhuang again, would I have lost so badly? Even if Eyue is lost because of this, the overall situation will be much better than now. ”

Wang was taken aback again: "General, but in this way, I am only afraid that Rongguan, Guiguan, Qiannan, including Fujian, will be sad and will collectively oppose us." ”

"Before the great army, any verbal opposition is feeble." Xiang Zhen said coldly: "We need to change. ”

Wang looked at Xiang Zhen again, and his heart was beating in shock.

"General, what are you going to do?"

Xiang Zhen pushed a stack of letters on the table in front of him: "This is my letter to some people, you can take a look, and then take them out, and send these letters to them one by one secretly." ”

The king opened one of the letters again, and before he had finished reading it, the whole person was already trembling and could not sit still.

"Fight or die faster!" Xiang Zhen said coldly.
