Chapter 003: Power comes out of the barrel of a gun
Solving the relevant matters of the Liaodong United Institute, in fact, this also indirectly solves the problem of the stability of the people's livelihood in Liaodong, which is stable, in fact, for Zhao Zongwu, it solves a large part of the problem.
Then the next thing he needs to solve is the problem of the development of the army in Liaodong, which not only involves the army, but also the development of the navy.
After everyone left, Zhao Zongwu stepped forward and patted Chen Qiyu on the shoulder, and said, "Yuxuan, don't blame your father-in-law for taking off your position. ”
After hearing this, Chen Qiyu immediately bowed down and said, "Grandpa Guo, I have never thought of it like this. ”
Zhao Zongwu waved his hand and continued: "This is going to the capital, even if I don't have to think about it, I know that this will be a big battle, Your Majesty crashed at this point in time, and at the same time after treatment, he fell ill, but there was no rumor before that, there must be a lot of cats in the middle!"
In recent years, this prince has been committed to solving the loss of land in Liaodong, in order to solve the encroachment on the territory of Liaodong Jiannu forces, so for some things in the capital did not pay attention, at this stage the eunuch family is dominant, in the Ming officialdom is even more evil, these situations are also very clear in the heart of this father.
But now Bengong doesn't think so, especially the message transmitted by Wang Tiqian's arrival this time, so that Bengong can obviously perceive that there is still a hidden force in the capital and even the imperial court, and the emperor's shipwreck is likely to be related to this force!
It's just that the old and spicy Wei Zhongxian didn't find this force, and he was afraid that he couldn't catch the fox's tail when he first arrived in the capital, and this time he went to the capital, it was impossible for him to bring too many soldiers and horses, so he had to bring his henchmen to the capital.
After thinking about it, my father decided to take you to Beijing with me! ”
Originally, Chen Qiyu was very moved by Zhao Zongwu to take him into Beijing, and when he heard what his grandfather said, he suddenly felt the emotion of the death of a confidant in his heart!
I can't help it.
Although it is said that Chen Qiyu was abducted by Zhao Zongwu, Chen Qiyu at that time was just a hairy boy, although he was born as a scholar, but how can he compare it with today?
In just five years, even if he Chen Qiyu is talented, he can't be in charge of the military power alone in Daming, and he still has many secrets!
That is, in getting along, Chen Qiyu slowly expressed his heart to Zhao Zongwu, but he lacked a suitable opportunity to really express it in public.
At least not yet.
Chen Qiyu nodded and said: "Grandpa Guo rest assured, the lowly position will definitely help the grandpa Guo solve the hidden forces in Beijing, no matter what they do, as long as there is something that threatens the grandpa of the country, the lowly position will kill them even if he is desperate!" ”
Another point is more important, why have Sun Chuanting, Chen Qiyu, and Lu Xiangsheng changed so much?
The most fundamental reason is that Zhao Zongwu moved all their family power to Liaodong, so that their family could obtain rich living capital, and the Lu family was all invested in the development of Liaodong, most of which were invested in education.
If you want to truly subjugate a person, you must use their family to bind them, and only by making such interests more and more consolidated can you truly subjugate a person.
Profit is an eternal thing in this world!
"Good! With Yuxuan's words, my father is relieved. Regarding Chen Qiyu's statement, Zhao Zongwu affirmed, stepped forward and patted him twice, and then said: "Now you go and gather the core of the army, navy, and garrison to go to the military courtyard, and this public has something to discuss!" ”
Fang has already mentioned that although the twelve consuls of Liaodong have been finalized, the military affairs must also be resolved as soon as possible, only in this way, and only in this way, can Liaodong be given the most stable development space, and only in this way can Liaodong be given a better speed of development!
Chen Qiyu nodded and said, "Okay!" Let's do it! ”
After dealing with these matters, Zhao Zongwu sent someone to call Fan Tianxiong, as his most trusted brother and the most trusted person, there are some things he must explain to Fan Tianxiong.
Zhao Zongwu said: "Brother Fan, this time I went to the capital, I am afraid that I will not be able to return to Liaodong for a year and a half, and even if there is a big change in the situation, I will not be able to return to Liaodong for two or three years, this time the emperor has a shipwreck, I suspect that someone in the capital wants the emperor to die, and also wants to take this opportunity to get rid of the eunuchs!"
Wei Zhongxian has indeed done too much over the years, in order to allow himself to enjoy the greatest power, he has done a lot of angry things that day, just the recent trend of building ancestral halls is enough to make those scholars disgusting.
During the period when I am not in Liaodong, you must control the development trend of Liaodong for me, and discuss it with Zu Dashou and them, as long as you can ensure that the military affairs of Liaodong are done in accordance with the plan and deployment formulated before I leave, then there will be no major turmoil in Liaodong.
What's more, if there are different voices and different wills in Liaodong, no matter who it is, it must be suppressed as soon as possible!
Now Liaodong is in a critical stage of development, and whether Liaodong can complete the development needs as soon as possible is related to whether Liaodong can become stronger in the future! ”
Zhao Zongwu's explanations were one after another, and he didn't give Fan Tianxiong a chance to speak at all, but at the same time, this also reflected how much Zhao Zongwu trusted him.
It stands to reason that Zhao Zongwu and Zu Dashou are Weng sons-in-law, and the relationship between them should be the closest existence, but why did Zhao Zongwu not hand over the power of Liaodong to Zu Dashou?
This is not because Zhao Zongwu does not trust Zu Dashou, nor is it because Zhao Zongwu does not believe in Zu Dashou's ability, the fundamental reason is that the power of the Zu family is too great!
If he handed over the power to take care of Liaodong to Zu Dashou again this time, it would not be long before the ancestral family's power in Liaodong would reach a higher level!
At that time, many things will not be as simple as what Zhao Zongwu wants to do.
Seeing that Zhao Zongwu hurriedly finished talking about this, Fan Tianxiong nodded heavily and said, "Brother Wu, don't worry, I will definitely help you take care of your home!" ”
I didn't use the title of Grandpa Guo and lowly position to express it, and I replied like before, the underlying consciousness of this expression is, you can rest assured to go to the capital, if you want to make any turmoil in Liaodong, the only possibility is that I, Fan Tianxiong, are dead, otherwise no one can move Liaodong!
Although Fan Tianxiong didn't show this, Zhao Zongwu understood what Fan Tianxiong meant, so he just patted Fan Tianxiong on the shoulder, there is such a tacit understanding between brothers, there is no need to say too many sensational words, sometimes one look can understand everything.
After expressing this, Zhao Zongwu and Fan Tianxiong went to the military academy together, and at this time, the core of the Liaodong Military Academy arrived, and when they saw Zhao Zongwu and Fan Tianxiong arriving together, this actually showed what Zhao Zongwu's attitude towards the outside world was.
The higher you reach the position, the more your every move represents a deep meaning, if you are stupid and do not guess it, then you deserve to climb up, if you are smart to guess out, and can also give the best expression, then you are bound to rise!
Politics is no small matter!
The heads of the four Divisions of the Department and the Third Division have all arrived.
Chen Qiyu, director of the General Staff Department, Fan Tianxiong, director of the Propaganda Department, Ding Kui, director of the Coordination Department, Zu Dashou, director of the War Readiness Department, Li Yun, deputy director of the Navy Division, Zhao Shujiao, deputy director of the Army Division, and Sun Zushou, deputy director of the Garrison Division.
In the army in Shenyang, the commander of the garrison army and the Xuanfu envoy also came.
Commander of the 1st Army Corps: Man Gui, Legion Propaganda Envoy: Cao Wenyao, Commander of the 10th Army Corps: Jiang Bi, Legion Propaganda Envoy: Wu Guoxun, Liaodong Local Garrison Commander: Yao Fumin, Liaodong Local Garrison Propaganda Envoy: Wang Xiaxe.
Except for the four departments and the three divisions, they are all named by Zhao Zongwu to come, because some strategies must be explained to them!
Looking at the gathered generals, Zhao Zongwu's heart was full of excitement, Liaodong has developed to this point today, it is entirely thanks to them, if it is not for their help, it is impossible for Liaodong to have today's changes if he relies on himself alone!
Therefore, this time let him leave Liaodong and go to the capital, if you really want to talk about it, there is nothing bad about it, this is just more able to temper the power circle of Liaodong's structure.
"This time this duke should enter Beijing at the behest of His Majesty, I am afraid that I will not be able to return to Liaodong in a short time, but Liaodong is now in a critical stage of development, and it cannot lead to any problems in the development of Liaodong because of the departure of this duke.
But what this duke wants to say to you is that the things related to the local construction of Liaodong, as long as they do not deviate from its original development trajectory, should be based on Sun Chuanting's opinions in the general trend, if it involves the foundation of the local development of Liaodong, and you are not sure, you can pass on the basic situation to this duke, Liaodong can have today, it is all you who led the troops to fight with Jiannu in a bloody battle, I am afraid that you don't want to see chaos in Liaodong again, right? ”
Although it is said that in Liaodong, a large part of the group still maintains a sense of awe for Daming, but there is nothing wrong with this, at least Zhao Zongwu will definitely not oppose during this time, because Daming has not lost the hearts of the people, and he still understands the truth of the buffer king.
It's not a good thing to have Takeo in power, but it's a very good thing to limit their power and give them the part of power they should do.
"Now my father doesn't mention the matter of the Liaodong United Academy, the purpose of my father's call to you all today is to talk about the development of the Liaodong army, although the public security in Liaodong is now said to have stabilized in the general trend, but you are all the masters who lead the troops to fight, and you are all fierce generals who have fought with the most powerful enemy, then you must know more in your hearts than anyone else, and relax the suppression of the enemy ideologically, what a terrible thing it is!
Because of the time, this time I will be a dictator, one by one to tell the development plan in my heart, if there is anything wrong, you can be adjusted in the follow-up deployment plan, through discussion, but the basic trend can not be changed! ”
What Zhao Zongwu wants to do at this time is to be a dictator and let the Liaodong army do it according to his own will!
"Let's mention the army first, at this stage, the Huaxia Army has been deployed in accordance with the original plan, but there is still a lack of elite replenishment, the original Bengong thought that there was no need to be too anxious, even if some legions were not completely replenished, it would not hinder anything, but after this incident, Bengong would like to put forward a few requirements for the Huaxia Army!
The replenishment of the original troop source should be completed within half a year, and the insufficient troop source can be supplemented by the local garrison force, but of course this does not mean that the selection criteria should be lowered.
If you want to do this, you must increase your investment in the war on the peninsula and the islands, and your military academy must flexibly grasp the scale of this.
The upgrading of weapons and equipment of the various legions of the Chinese Army must also be increased, and the salaries and salaries of the officers and men of the various legions must be paid in place, and the situation of drinking the blood of soldiers is not allowed.
Although it is said that the main purpose of Liaodong at this stage is to seek stability, but the investigation that should be done must be responsible in place, and there is also a policy of expulsion of the Jiannu in the Jianzhou area, and the power of the original Jiannu is encroached on step by step! ”
The Chinese Army has a more abundant group of generals, and many times they are stationed in the localities, not to encircle them in Liaodong, why is Liaodong still maintaining a war posture against the peninsula and the island?
In essence, it is to take advantage of this war situation to constantly sharpen the combat effectiveness of each army and ensure that they will not affect their combat effectiveness because of a short pause!
But the same Huaxia Army is the largest part of the Liaodong Army, and any of his measures will cost a lot of money, so what Zhao Zongwu just talked about needs to be completely completed by the Huaxia Army in the next one to two years.
Of course, the replenishment of the army should be put in the first place, and we must also be vigilant against the suppression of the situation of Jiannu!
What Zhao Zongwu said, Fan Tianxiong and they must speculate well, and more importantly, they also need to balance the development prospects of the Huaxia Navy and the local garrison in Liaodong.
"Then there is the navy, the development of the Chinese Navy during this period is really good, especially after clarifying the two mechanisms, the direction for the future development has been clarified, at this point this Gong has nothing to say, the Navy only needs to move forward in accordance with the original deployment plan.
But what this prince wants to talk about is that although the Huaxia Navy has developed to the existence of today's behemoth, this does not mean that the West China Navy has really sat back and relaxed, and in the next time, the Navy Division will particularly strengthen the supplement of the Huaxia Navy fleet group, and the weapons that are conducive to naval operations must be studied in place, so as to fundamentally enhance the strength of the Huaxia Navy!
There is another point, the naval division should increase the strength of the people to go to the open sea to plunder the ships of the Yi tribe, although Liaodong has now grown into a behemoth, but he still needs more to consolidate it, without the foundation of the foundation, in fact, it is very easy to collapse!
The division of military regions and theaters in the Chinese Navy is actually to allow the navy to have better development, and at the same time, it is also to better protect the fundamental interests of our maritime merchants in Liaodong, so the pirates in this jurisdiction must be absolutely executed, and a pirate force cannot be allowed to gallop within the sphere of influence of our Chinese Navy! ”
Zhao Zongwu actually doesn't have much to say about the development of the Huaxia Navy, because the Huaxia Navy has been able to develop to this point today is entirely due to their unconditional obedience to Zhao Zongwu's opinions, and then it can develop to this level under the premise that Zhao Zongwu did not intervene!
"When it comes to the Liaodong local garrison, this duke only has one thing to mention, we must further improve the structure of the garrison in Liaodong, to ensure that even if the Liaodong border line is broken by the enemy, there will be no big fluctuations in my Liaodong, remember, let you serve as the Liaodong local garrison, not let you eat and drink every day, the most basic skills must be trained in place, and thieves and bandits are not allowed in Liaodong!
In fact, the security of Liaodong is in your hands, and from the very beginning, I have made it clear that the two major systems of the local garrison army and the Chinese army are fundamentally to distinguish different enemy situations, so as to better ensure the relevant construction of the Liaodong army!
There is another point, the supply of troops for the legion, you must also ensure that it is done, this is not only the supply of the legion, but also reflects the overall strength of your local garrison in Liaodong, if all of you can meet the criteria for the selection of the legion, then if a big battle breaks out, why can't you directly convert you into the legion to participate in the war? ”
According to his initial planning and deployment, the local garrison is not a straggler, it is built compared with the group of armed police in later generations, and the security and stability of the local area actually depends on the local garrison, and the local garrison is also the key to ensuring the supply of troops for the Chinese Army.
"And! As for the War Preparedness Department, I would like to give an explanation to the Ministry of War Preparedness, we must ensure that all kinds of research that are beneficial to the battlefield are in place, and we must not cut off their research funds, and no matter what kind of problems you encounter in the future, we must ensure that they conduct research in these areas! ”
Zhao Zongwu can lead the soldiers and horses, from weak to strong step by step, that depends on the various war weapons that appeared in the early stage, from the magic grenade, the fierce fire and oil bombs, and then to the perverted existence of the airship, although its consumption is very large, but the war guidance brought is very obvious, there are several key battles are because of their appearance, and finally ensure the balance of victory in the war to Zhao Zongwu and them!
This major strategic level has been described, and the next Liaodong army only needs to move forward according to such a plan and deployment!
It is also because of such a policy that the Military Academy can lead the Liaodong army to a higher level!
What Zhao Zongwu wants to talk about next is a more detailed deployment, which is why he called Man Gui and them.
"Last year, the Mangui and Jiang Bi divisions carried out a small-scale attack on the grassland, which also made Jiang Bi's troops improve in the battle, which is a very good thing.
Today, my father called you, in fact, there is only one point to talk about, during the period when my father left Liaodong, you two departments should increase the bondage of the grassland, because there is a lot of wealth on the grassland, but the Tartars living on the grassland do not understand this!
The development of Liaodong to this point is no longer a simple development relationship, he involves many aspects, and he needs to drive a lot of changes, since the army can get the opportunity to temper, then as a part of it, if you can't maintain a super offensive posture, this is actually a very bad thing!
In itself, the cavalry of my Han family has shortcomings compared to the cavalry of other races, and the pursuit of Jiannu in the future must be my top priority in Liaodong, so if you want to quickly solve Jiannu, you must diversify your development, so you must seize the time to temper yourself in the next period of time! ”
Because cavalry is the most expensive type of army, at least before the popularity of artillery, cavalry is the most expensive one, and feeding a cavalry corps is enough to feed three full-fledged army corps.
Therefore, we must not take the cavalry lightly, and if we are not careful, we will waste all the hard work of the years!
Zhao Zongwu spoke for half an hour without rest, and he said everything he could think of that would help the development of the Liaodong army, and in this way, he ensured that the Liaodong army would not regress in the slightest, on the contrary, after reaching the deployment he had planned, the strength of the Liaodong army would be on a higher level!
Looking at the military generals in front of him, Zhao Zongwu said earnestly: "During the period when this duke left, the Liaodong army will rely on your military academy, and if you encounter problems, you must discuss more, and if there are major fluctuations, you must deal with them in time, and you can report any problems to this official as soon as possible!"
During the period of his absence, Fan Tianxiong temporarily served as a staff officer. ”
"Yes!"
After listening to Zhao Zongwu's narration, everyone present bowed down and said in unison.
At this point, Zhao Zongwu solved the relevant matters of Liaodong's military and political affairs, and after solving these, he could devote himself to the new situation.
For him, the water in the capital is too deep, and there are too many big fish hidden in the middle, as the core of the Ming Dynasty, having so many dignitaries and nobles is not something that he can easily solve as an outsider, so when he goes to the capital, he must have a super strong army!
For this reason, Zhao Zongwu decided to take the Liaodong Special Brigade away, at this stage they have little significance in staying in Liaodong, except for leaving enough training for the new special forces, the rest were taken away by him.
With more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, Zhao Zongwu dared to break into the capital!
He wants to see what kind of characters exist in the capital!
Zhu Youxiao must not hang up so easily!
