Chapter 106: Military Reform
Under the attention of the ministers, Huo Guang got up from his seat with a solemn face, and walked to the center of the Xuanshu Hall again.
Liu Xun looked at Huo Guang's movements, and his heart was infinitely emotional, this is the first time in the history of China that the government has published its governing program for the next few years, which is a cross-era milestone, Liu Xun quietly tidied up his clothes and prepared to meet this moment.
Huo Guang held the manuscript in his hand, this is the work plan of Huo Guang leading the Prime Minister's Mansion and the relevant Jiuqing for the next five years, summarizing all the contents of the Han Dynasty in the next five years, and handing it over to Shangshu Ling Han Zeng for inspection, and then reported to the Son of Heaven, after the Son of Heaven agreed, this is today's public reading, so that the officials of the world can know the deployment of Chang'an in the next five years.
In the past two months, in countless sleepless periods, Huo Guang worked overtime, and reluctantly announced it at the court meeting without delaying his daily work and auditing.
In the midst of all the attention, Huo Guang opened the file in his hand and read aloud: "Han, Ding Wei was born in the first year, according to the system of Emperor Gao's founding of the country, with reference to the current situation of the current son and the county of the world, the Han Dynasty will be the standard of the next five years of the world's ministers! ! ”
Hearing this, Liu Xun nodded with satisfaction, before the Han Dynasty, there was no planned implementation of the policy, most of the time, it was a headache and a foot pain, even if it was a war against the Huns, it was all up to the will of the Son of Heaven, and then went to see if the war horses and grain and grass were ready, although it was a surprise in terms of tactics, but in the strategy of the operation of the whole country, it caused a lot of damage.
In today's hall, Huo Guang pointed out to the ministers of the world in just a few words that in the future, whether the Han family starts a war or the daily administrative work of the county, it will need to report the work plan.
In private affairs, Huo Guang has such and such problems, but in political affairs, Huo Guang is a politician who can rank in the top five of the Han Dynasty, and even in terms of specific achievements, only Xiao He and Zhang Cang can compare.
When Liu Xun sighed in his heart, Huo Guang continued to read: "Han Ziyun: The foot of the people, in the virtuous, not in the position, the world believes, in the can do, not in the can speak, and now the Huns have not been destroyed, the frontier is unstable, so when the martial arts are cultivated, to suppress the barbarians, the Han has five as the holy number, the formation of the army of five corps and fifteen captains, each captain of 2,000 people, non-northern knights, material officers can not serve, each lieutenant is awarded 2,000 stones, has been the town of four wilderness, the inner county and county soldiers quota of 500, the outer county soldiers 1,000, used to suppress bandits and quell the chaos, set up the post of county captain, the commander-in-chief of the county soldiers, Due to the control of the county guards and the governors of various prefectures, after the transfer of troops and horses, it must be reported to the General Office of the Fifth Army, and after verification, the General Office of the Fifth Army in charge of various places shall report to the General General's Office and Shangshutai, but the military government at all levels shall not interfere with the civil affairs at the grassroots level!! ”
The ministers were in an uproar,
This is to completely divide the army, set up a field army with the county soldiers, the most important thing is that the list of the five armies has not yet been announced, whether it is a military family or a liege, the scholars and doctors are very concerned.
In the concern of the ministers, Huo Guang continued to read: "Set up the generals of the five armies, and the five armies are: the Northern Army, the Baxia Army, the Flying Fox Army, the Xiliu Army, the Juzhu Army, and the general positions of each army, with a rank of two thousand stones compared to Jiuqing!! ”
For a while, the eyes of the liehou and the military family immediately turned red, and they immediately looked at their colleagues around them with great momentum, everyone knew that once they or their family obtained the position of general of the five armies, whether it was the future ranking of the court or the arrangement of the positions of the children and grandchildren in the army, it became very advantageous.
Huo Guang didn't pay attention to the reactions of the courtiers, and continued: "The Northern Army, the main guard in the palace, is jointly in charge of the Guanglu Xun Guard, everything is the same as before!" ”
"Baxia army, stationed in Guanzhong, establish a government in Baxia, oversee all military affairs in Guanzhong and Hedong counties and counties, any movement of troops and horses needs to be reported to the Baxia General's Mansion, Zongzheng Liu De is the overlord general!!"
"The Xiliu Army, stationed in Xingyang Daying, is stationed in Henan, Hebei, and the southeast of Henan, and oversees all military affairs in the territory, and Zhao Chongguo serves as the !!"
"The Flying Fox Army, stationed on the Flying Fox Ancient Road, guarding Zhao, Yan, Dai, Liaodong, North Korea and other places, overseeing military affairs, and reclamation matters, is served by Captain Flying Fox Linghe as the !!"
"The sentence note army, stationed in the sentence note, guarding the land of Hexi and Henan, is served by the Liao general Fan Mingyou, but the Hexi Rebellion has not yet ended, and all political affairs in the land of Hexi are temporarily in charge of the chariot general Zhang Anshi!!!"
Huo Guang took a breath and said the reform plan of the Han military system, and then stayed where he was, waiting for the ministers' questions.
Officers at all levels were quietly discussing and discussing to see if the reform of the military system would have an impact on everyone, and long before it was formulated, the Son of Heaven and Huo Guang sent people to solicit the opinions of the main military cadets and make appropriate revisions according to the opinions.
Therefore, the people concerned remained silent and acquiesced in the implementation of the new military system.
This Han version of the military region system is Liu Xun after thinking about it, after putting an end to the shortcomings of all the imperial military systems in ancient and modern China and foreign countries, the military region system first appeared in the seventh century in the later generations, originally only in Asia Minor, although Heraclius is usually considered the initiator of this system, but this system is more likely to be the first in Constance II, Constantine IV in Anatolia to arrange a military region to defend against Arab invasion. Originally, there were only four military districts, but in order to limit the power of the generals of the military districts, the original military districts were often divided.
For example, the Epshkin Military District was split into three military districts because of its repeated participation in the rebellion, in addition
, with the territorial expansion of the early and middle Macedonian dynasties, in order to control the newly acquired land more effectively.
Liu Xun's reform of the military system tended to be more in favor of the Ming Dynasty's Five Military Governor's Office, and the power of the Five Military Governor's Office in the early and middle Ming Dynasty was still very large, and the selection and replacement of Wei generals, the training of Wei soldiers, the management of military households and the acquisition of military intelligence were all controlled by the Five Military Governor's Office.
In addition, major military operations related to the safety of the empire need to be decided after consultation between the emperor and the governors of the five armies, which is incomparably consistent with the ruling ideas of the Han Dynasty, and the Han family is the opposite of the Ming Dynasty in later generations, and the generals of the Han family have absolute rights, which is why it is preached in the history books of later generations, only the Han and Tang dynasties are strong and strong, which also creates the soil for the rise of local separatist forces, therefore, Liu Xun divided the world into five generals' mansions, divided the world's soldiers and horses into five military regions, and ordered that the generals' mansions in various places should not interfere with civil affairs, so that the freak of the future domain town will not be born.
Moreover, during the time of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, the Son of Heaven sent a large number of escort envoys, and even when Liu Xun's grandfather Liu Ju rebelled, he turned to Sima Qian's famous male protagonist of the book of Ren An, Ren An, the protector of the Northern Army, and it was precisely because of Ren An's refusal that Liu Ju failed and committed suicide.
Therefore, the military envoys of all dynasties are the confidants of the Son of Heaven.
Because of the above advantages, Liu Xun chose this system, but to Liu Xun's surprise, he only vaguely proposed this concept to Huo Guang, and Huo Guang drew it up almost accurately, but Liu Xun did not raise this question, only as a tacit understanding between monarchs and ministers.
At this time, Jiuqing and the courtiers of more than 2,000 stone had basically understood all the provisions of the reform of the military system.
After waiting for a while, Liu Xun saw that the ministers below had no objections, and then glanced at Han Zeng beside him, and motioned for Han Zeng to start the third reading.
In the Han Dynasty, after the third reading of the court discussion, if the court officials did not oppose it, they would be issued to the world, just like when Emperor Xiaowu launched a lawsuit, because no one objected during the third reading, no matter how angry the people were, the governments at all levels of the Han Dynasty will firmly implement it.
Han Zeng came from a background and proclaimed loudly: "Ministers, can you have objections!! ”
After shouting three times in a row, no one in the court objected, and the military reform of the Han Dynasty was officially passed by the court.
Liu Xun breathed a sigh of relief, got up and said: "I heard that the sage Yun: the major affairs of the country, only worship and Rong, today's Han Dynasty has an unprecedented feat, and the separation of military and government is a fortunate thing for the country, but the sage does not have to be rigid, and can be transferred according to his talent!! ”
The ministers bowed and said, "The ministers are only powerful and blessed by His Majesty!! ”
