Chapter 120: The Root of the Forbidden Army's Weakness

In the forbidden army camp, not everyone is sleeping.

Several battalions have already begun training with their officers.

These battalions are also the best forbidden battalions in this rapid march.

It's not for other reasons, it's just because these forbidden troops are all soldiers guarding the head of Bianjing.

There are also many people who participated in the battle of Chenzhou Gate, using flesh and blood as a wall to forcibly knock the enemy out of the defenders of Chenzhou Gate.

Soldiers who have seen blood always look more ferocious than other soldiers.

Under Zhao Huan's order, the forbidden army camp was woken up, Zhao Huan's order was quickly executed, many people rubbed their eyes, walked out of the camp, and waited until after eating, and continued the order to march urgently.

This order made the real military camp cry bitterly.

The officers and soldiers of the prolific army, on the other hand, had fierce faces, and with horsewhips in their hands, drove the lazy sergeants under the sheds where they were eating, as if they were cattle and sheep.

The guys who cook are all people's husbands, and the appearance of these people's men is much better than the lazy soldiers of the forbidden army.

Zhao Huan was not prepared to use any harsh punishment to improve the combat effectiveness of the army.

Although he was in the barracks, the military orders were like a mountain, and the violators were beheaded.

However, can this be all blamed on this group of pampered house slave soldiers?

After the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao State signed the Yuanyuan Alliance, the two countries were peaceful for more than a hundred years, although occasionally the Liao State also had a small group of soldiers to plunder south, but the Liao State said that it was a horse bandit, and the Great Song Dynasty was unwilling to start a war lightly, so he pinched his nose and endured it.

The loose armament brought by the century-old Chengping is also the crux of the problem.

Why did the Western Army finish fighting Fang La and Song Jiang, Song Jiang and Yelu Dashi, and Yelu Dashi and Yan Zonghan and Yan Zongwang?

For more than ten years, running back and forth without a moment's rest?

Such a large-scale and high-intensity transfer is because the Western Army is the last elite of the Great Song Dynasty.

The reason why it is elite is because Yongding Military Road is a war zone.

It has been hammering each other with the Western Xia for hundreds of years and fighting for hundreds of years, so there is this Western Army and the last glory of the Great Song Dynasty.

Otherwise, even if Zhao Huan has the overall situation and vision of the next nine hundred years, it will be useless.

Therefore, the forbidden army was lazy, half of them blamed themselves for not being angry, and half of them were blamed on the erosion of the Great Song Dynasty's armaments.

Zhao Huan's fingers tapped on the green bricks on the city wall, and he was planning in his heart how to train a soldier of a hundred battles.

After the battle of Yan Zonghan, the war in the Great Song Dynasty dissipated?

Western Xia, Western Liao, Tubo, Dali, Jin Guo, Li Dynasty, and the restored Zhao Ji are all in trouble!

Zhao Ying pushed the Seed Master Dao to Zhao Huan's side, the Seed Master Dao couldn't stand up, and he couldn't see the situation in the military village, but the Seed Master Dao, who had been in battle for a long time, could see Zhao Huan's inner anxiety from the new emperor's frowning brows.

The seed master smiled reluctantly and said: "The reason why the five generations have taken the world is because of soldiers. Where the military power is, it will be prosperous; Where the military power goes, it will perish. ”

"Official, Shi Jingjiao dedicated the sixteen states of Yanyun to the Khitan and became the emperor of the Khitan, An Chongrong was supported by the soldiers and horses of Tubo, established himself as the king, and died in defeat to the Jin army."

"Although Ahn Chongrong is dead. But this sentence "The Son of Heaven would rather have a kind of yes?" The strong soldiers and strong horses are for it. But it became a prophecy. ”

Zhao Huan nodded, he had heard this sentence, or when Zhao Kai's palace changed, he heard Zhao Kai say this.

Looking back now, things are not people.

Seed Master Dao fell into memories, he was seventy-five years old, and he had experienced four dynasties before and after, as the patriarch of the four dynasties, there were some things that he didn't remember very clearly.

"From the first year of Kaiping, Zhu Wen usurped the seal of the Tang Dynasty and established the Later Liang Dynasty. In the first year of Jianlong, Emperor Taizu of the Great Song Dynasty established the end of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"In a total of fifty-three years, the Central Plains fought endlessly, and in just fifty-three years, the country of the Central Plains has experienced a total of Zhu Liang, Later Tang, Shi Jin, Liu Han and Guo Wudai."

"And there are more than ten princely states that have established themselves as kings, such as Former Shu, Later Shu, Southern Wu, Southern Tang, Wu Yue, Fujian, Chu, Southern Han, Nanping, Jingnan, and Northern Han, and fought endlessly."

"At that time, under the difficulties of internal and external affairs, my Taizu Emperor set the precept of revitalizing culture and education. It has been more than 160 years now. ”

"In the court, there are official positions such as privy envoys, three envoys, and three yayas. Limit the power of the prime minister and limit the power of the military attachΓ©. ”

"Every time there is a war, the official family will select the ministers to lead the forbidden army. At the local level, systems such as general judgment and military supervision were set up to curb the authority of the envoys. ”

"On the whole, it is extremely effective in solving the problems left over from the five dynasties and ten countries - the chaos in the world, the disaster of China, and the search for usurpation." The seed master said in one breath.

Zhao Huan nodded, this is the "History of the Five Dynasties" compiled by Ouyang Xiu, which is a private revision history, and it is also the only official history of private cultivation since the Tang Dynasty.

Because it is a private practice, I wrote it myself, but it was more popular in this Great Song Dynasty, after all, some official history books came forward to repair, and some unpleasant words were really not very convenient to write.

Detrimental to decency.

Seed Master Dao shook his head and continued: "However, it has been one hundred and sixty years since the official family was founded in the first year of Jianlong and the founding of the Great Song Dynasty! ”

The words of the Seed Master Dao were not finished, but Zhao Huan knew the meaning of the Seed Master Dao.

This is to say that the policy of the Great Song Dynasty has been overkill.

Zhao Huan looked left and right, there was no one else except one Zhao Ying, Cheng Chu led dozens of relatives and officials, standing far away.

After making sure that no one around could hear his conversation with the seed master, he said with a sad face: "I know everything about what the seed Shaobao said. ”

Zhao Huan has been in this Great Song Dynasty for more than a month, and the most important thing is the cause of this great trouble of valuing literature and ignoring martial arts, of course he must understand it clearly.

One hundred and sixty years!

The emperor personally went down, and Song Zhenzong wrote the "Persuasion Poem" that has been sung for 900 years.

The family does not need to buy fertile land, there are thousands of bells in the book. There is no need to erect tall buildings to live in peace, and there is a golden house in the book. Don't hate to go out with no one, there are many cars and horses in the book. Don't hate unscrupulous matchmakers when marrying a wife, there is Yan Ruyu in the book.

And the stinky younger brother who has already stood up, Zhao Kai also went out to win fame in person, gambled everything he had, made a champion, and won countless political capital.

The boy wants to fulfill his life's aspirations, and the six classics are read in front of the window.

The entire Great Song Dynasty has become an atmosphere where everything is inferior, and only reading is high!

And this trend is getting worse!

Martial virtue is sluggish, and military equipment is not prosperous.

If this general environment does not change, it will not be able to change the status quo of the erosion of the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army at all!

Seeing the official frowning, he must be worried about national affairs. What should be seen is that the combat power of the forbidden army is not very useful. And there is no good way to frown so much, and the ministers unconsciously said a few words, don't blame the officials. Seed Master Dao asked deliberately.

Zhao Huan was waiting for the strategy of how to improve the situation of the Seed Master Dao, and the result was that he wanted to stop this conversation?

This is also a half-talked, angry person!
