Chapter 428: A Group of Old Foxes (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

"Ju Guogong, what you said is not right, although the Royal Military Academy is indeed run by the royal family, its duty is also to train enough generals like Wei Guogong for the Tang Dynasty, so it is the royal family's own business, this is inappropriate" Hearing Tang Jian's words, Li Chengqian glanced at Tang Jian and said to him, and also said to the civil and military generals present.

"It's the old minister who is reckless, then I don't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked the minister to wait for" Tang Jian looked at Li Chengqian after speaking, and everyone else also stared at Li Chengqian.

"Today, this king asked everyone to come over, I want to discuss with you some things about logistics supply in our Tang Army, and there is also the fact that this king wants to open a discipline in the military academy to train a group of logistics personnel" Li Chengqian finished speaking, looking at everyone who was already slightly moved.

"Gao Ming, there is nothing to discuss about this matter, this logistics support, it has always been the unified deployment of the military department, the household department, and the civil department in wartime, and listen to your meaning, you want to make it independent, I think this is completely unnecessary" Li Shimin frowned and said to Li Chengqian.

"Father, I don't think it's unnecessary, but in my opinion, it's very necessary, you and your lords, take a look at this first, this is all the information I have compiled about grain and grass armaments in the past ten years, after you read it, let's talk" Saying that, Li Chengqian took out a document prepared in advance and asked Li Tai to send a copy to everyone.

After receiving this information, all of them looked at it with an indifferent attitude, but as they looked deeper, they were shocked by the examples on the information, and they didn't expect such a result.

"Gao Ming, is the content on your information true, will you write it wrong" After Li Shimin finished reading it, he looked at Li Chengqian with some gloom and asked, and everyone else also looked at Li Chengqian.

"Father, the content of this information is true, and as you can see, the logistics support of my Datang seems to be rigorous, but there are many flaws in it, and there is a serious delay, which is good in wartime, you are okay in person, but it is such a situation in peacetime, and there are repeated situations in many aspects, which in my opinion, it is a very unreasonable thing" Li Chengqian nodded at Li Shimin and told him that this information was true.

Hearing Li Chengqian's explanation, whether it was Li Shimin or those civil and military generals, their hearts sank suddenly.

It turned out that Li Chengqian's materials to them gave them a detailed introduction to the malaise in all logistical support, such as grain and grass transportation, armaments, and so on, such as the grain and grass salaries of the soldiers at the border gates, and some of them were often taken away by the top commander of that army, or even sold by them.

There are also some generals who rely on their own merits to receive more and more when receiving food, and these generals have the right to distribute food and pay in their hands, so that they have a high status in the army.

It's not that Li Shimin doesn't know about this, it's just that over the years, this has become a norm, and they are used to it, so they didn't go, and at the same time, because they discussed it, but there was no good way, so they didn't care, but after reading Li Chengqian's information, they felt a chill down their spines, and felt that this matter could not be dealt with.

"Alas, His Royal Highness the Prince, what you said in your information, the old minister also found out before, but these are all intentional actions of the old minister and His Majesty, intended to make there be a certain competition between the various guards, as for the deduction of food and salary, it all happened in the Wude period, and His Royal Highness should also know the situation at that time, since Zhenguan, the deduction of food and salary has never happened, so the minister thinks that this matter is not so serious" Li Jing stood up and said to Li Chengqian.

"Wei Guogong, do you think this matter is not so serious, it is because there is my father and the emperor and you lords now, but if this matter has not been resolved after you and my father are old, it will be a disease in the entire Datang, and it will make Datang terminally ill at any time, have you ever thought about this" Li Chengqian saw Li Jing stand up and say these words, he asked unceremoniously.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, isn't there still you, although the ministers and others are getting old, but you are still young, since you have found out, you can just deal with it, so His Royal Highness the Prince, let's talk to the ministers and others, your specific methods" After Li Jing finished speaking, he sat down directly.

And the others and Li Shimin also looked at Li Chengqian with the expressions we were listening to.

Seeing this situation, no matter how stupid Li Chengqian was, he knew that this group of people didn't know these things before, but they were confident that they could handle it in that situation, and at the same time, they didn't find a feasible way, so they kept dragging it out.

Now that Li Chengqian has said this, of course they are happy to watch the play on the sidelines.

"Father, my lords, it seems that my prince is still too young, and the feelings are all intentional on your part, and even such a result will be formed, and you are also pushing behind the scenes" Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin with some resentment, and they said there.

"Don't be poor, although this matter has our intention, but also because we have no better way, we have also discussed before, from the new formation of a special yamen to manage, but at that time, considering that unified management will make the various guards lose competition, so it has not been formed, but now I see the growth of the military academy, and some of the opinions you put forward, the pharmacist and I discussed this problem earlier, but there is still no good way, it was like asking you, you actually put it up yourself, then you can tell your opinionAfter Li Shimin scolded with a smile, he explained to Li Chengqian.

Hearing this, Li Chengqian realized that he really underestimated the people of the world, especially these old foxes who single-handedly conquered the whole world.

However, when the matter came to this, Li Chengqian did not hide it, and explained in detail his plan for building the army's logistical support.

The first point is to establish a new yamen to centrally manage the food and materials of all armies, including unified procurement and distribution.

The second is to assign an officer in charge of logistics in all colonel-level armies.

The officer's duties were like that of an instructor in the army of the flower planters in later generations.

As soon as Li Chengqian's idea came out, the eyes of these old foxes present lit up, especially as Li Chengqian's in-depth introduction to the duties of logistics officers deepened, and they all felt that Li Chengqian's method was good.

Of course, there are also people who are unhappy, this person is Cheng Biting Jin Wei Chi Gong and other generals, because if this system is really formed, they can't imagine that those who said one thing or two in the past will not work.

But they were unhappy, but they still did not jump out to oppose it.

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, everyone discussed there, and slowly formulated a logistics system that echoed the needs of the Tang Dynasty, but at the beginning, Li Shimin did not plan to implement all the guards together, but first launched it in the White Tiger Guard and the Xuanwu Guard, and finally tried the effect.
