Sometimes Li Xuan doesn't even know that over the years, he has spared no effort to strike a balance and deliberately created many contradictions between the army and navy, resulting in the contradictions between the army and navy even greater than the contradictions between the military and the cabinet.

The benefits of this situation to Li Xuan are very obvious, and he hardly has to worry that the army and navy will join forces to make trouble, especially what kind of rebellion.

The army wants to rebel, the navy does not agree!

The Navy wants to rebel, the Army does not agree!

Well, in addition to this, there is also a Guards, regardless of whether the army or the navy rebels, the Guards do not agree, and at the same time the Guards want to rebel, the Navy and the Army do not agree.

What is involved here is a struggle of fundamental interests between the military, and there is not much room for relaxation at all, and this kind of conflict of interests cannot be kept out of the military's top leadership, or even can not be eased by their own strength, and even the absolute high-level generals of the army and navy, such as Hao Bonian, Lei Wan, and Bao Yifen, cannot get out of it.

Even they know in their hearts that the struggle between the army and navy will cause internal friction, but they will still do it, because if they don't do it, a large number of subordinate generals below will be dissatisfied with them.

It is impossible for a bigwig who cannot bring benefits to the army to sit firmly in the position of a bigwig in the army.

Therefore, even a general like Hao Bonian, who killed all sides in foreign conquests, after returning to Jinling City, could not avoid being involved in the conflict of interests between the army and navy, whether he wanted to or not, he had to do so.

The only one who can ease the contradictions between the army and the navy is only one!

That's Li Xuan!

But would Li Xuan do that?

It's impossible to know it on your toes!

The contradiction between the army and the navy, he jumped up on purpose, and it took years of accumulation to create the current situation, and he would not take the initiative to destroy it.

There is a need for a balance between the army and the navy, even within the army and the navy, a balance that only he can break, but no one else can break.

That way he can sit back and relax, and not worry about a mutiny or something like that.

However, although this kind of thing has great benefits to Li Xuan's power, every time the army and navy generals quarrel over it, Li Xuan also feels a little headache.

Every time he made a lot of noise, he felt a little bored.

Sometimes, he also thinks about simply letting the army and navy ease the contradictions, but this kind of thought is often fleeting, he is not stupid, he really did it, but he is the emperor.

Li Xuan deliberately let the army and navy discord, although this is just his inner thoughts, but there is no shortage of people who are good at guessing people's hearts this year!

The high-ranking members of the army and navy don't know that this is the way of balance of the Holy Son of Heaven!

But so what? Could it be that they will be able to do the opposite?

Impossible 1

If you don't want to die, don't think that you are the only smart person in this world.

In fact, everyone is not stupid, but they know that they know, but everyone is pretending to be stupid.

Because since they know that this is done by His Majesty on purpose, all they can do is to obey His Majesty's wishes, and His Majesty wants the army and navy to be at odds, so they will not be reconciled.

If you want the army and navy to be a family, then you have to ask the Son of Heaven whether he agrees or not!

In this big background, the contradiction between the army and the navy also has a great relationship with the deliberate promotion of the army and the navy's top management!

The upper and lower levels joined forces, and this created a situation in which the army and navy in the empire were on the same page!

In previous years, it was better, but after the Battle of the Goryeo Peninsula, the army and navy basically parted ways completely.

Last year, the army wanted to send troops to the Ryukyu Prefecture for rotation, which was originally just a normal rotation, according to the previous rules, the navy was required to provide transport ships and escort warships, but the navy used the excuse that there were not enough transport ships, and this rotation transport operation was delayed for three months!

This is a great irritation within the Army!

Now on the side of the army, the idea of organizing a large-scale sea transport fleet under the logistics department of the Privy Council has been born, but unfortunately, this kind of thing has violated the interests of the navy.

In the early years, during the battles of Liaodong and Goryeo Peninsula, under the intervention of Li Xuan, the army and navy had reached an agreement of mutual understanding, that is, the two sides jointly established a maritime transportation committee to be jointly responsible for large-scale maritime transportation operations, but now the army wants to jump out and do it on its own, how can the navy agree!

You must know that on the sea, the navy is professional, and the Maritime Transport Committee is said to be jointly managed by the army and navy, but in fact it is still dominated by the navy, because to carry out large-scale maritime transportation, this maritime escort requires the navy to come forward, and the Maritime Transport Committee only manages a large number of civilian ships recruited during the war.

In the end, it was under Li Xuan's suppression that the army gave up the idea of building a large-scale transport fleet alone, but it became more and more firm in the army's idea of building a maritime transport division.

In the past, the army only had one maritime transport division, but after being stimulated by this incident, the army gritted its teeth and squeezed out a part of the already tight military expenditure to purchase armed merchant ships, preparing to build a second maritime transport division of the army.

It is a pity that the army expands an infantry division, as long as the funds are in place, it is a matter of a few months, but the establishment of a fleet, even if it is only a fleet of armed transport ships, is not something that can be done in a few months, and it is normal for a year or two at the least, or three or four years at most.

However, after the Ryukyu rotation incident, the army also increased the use of the army's first maritime transport division, so much so that this maritime transport division ran on various transportation and supply routes throughout the year to transport supplies for the army units stationed in the Ryukyus Province, Luzon Province, Daeyuan Island, Qiongju Island, Goryeo Peninsula, and other areas.

As for the navy, their army will not ask the navy for support again in peacetime unless it is absolutely necessary.

The contradiction between the army and the navy has reached such a large extent that now the army says that it will attack Malacca through Annam, and the generals of the navy can hear at a glance what the army people are thinking.

What to fight Malacca, that's all an excuse!

The army must have wanted to take this opportunity to adjust the empire's southward strategy, turning the previous capture of the Southeast Asian islands into the capture of the Southeast Asian peninsula.

Although there is only a word difference here, the difference is big!

Not to mention the impact of such a change on the Empire, but for the Navy, it is unacceptable.

Because the capture of the islands and the capture of the peninsula, the former is dominated by the navy, and the latter is dominated by the army!

When there is a change in the leader, it will be directly reflected in the distribution of military spending in the coming year!

In this regard, the Navy swears to the death!
