In August, the autumn is high and cool, in the suburbs of the west of Nanjing, it is in full swing, the flags are flying, and the trumpets and drums are sounding in unison. No ads on mobile phones m. The most data-saving.

Since last year, Wang Yan has been planning the reform of the military system, realizing the control of the army by the imperial court, and making the army national, rather than serving a certain general.

This is what all dynasties have to do, and it is also the cornerstone of the stability of the dynasty, and it is the only way to modernize the army and the dynasty.

To this end, Wang Yan made a lot of efforts, not only sent Chen Bangyan to lobby the generals of the Five Loyal Army, but also built a large number of buildings in Nanjing, expanded the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, gave the generals office space, and then built a large number of houses for the governors to live in.

This time, except for the southwest that was not selected because of the serious battle damage and the long distance, from the officers recommended by the various departments at the end of March, plus the original martial arts students of the martial arts, the entire martial arts already had 5,000 disciples.

The martial arts of the Ming Dynasty originally had a low status, but after Wang Yan's continuous encouragement in recent years, and as long as he graduated from school, it was at least a seven-grade general banner, which became a way out for many people, which changed the society's understanding of martial arts.

In this reform, martial arts has also made a little change, there was no taboo in the original, but now there is a taboo in wine, and Wang Yan naturally will not miss this opportunity, whether he has time to teach these martial arts moves, he will first give this title of taboo wine.

Wang Yan's intention to take this position is obvious, that is, to make those who have graduated in martial arts in the future his protégés.

As long as he does this taboo for a few years, when the cultivated martial arts enter the army and gradually take power, his position will be unshakable.

The importance of this position can be seen by many people, so it is not easy for Wang Yan to get it.

Every official, more or less, has the ideal of worshipping the prime minister, and wants to hold power to realize his inner ambitions and political ambitions.

After these years of hard work, the Chu Party according to the original political goals and demands, taking advantage of the emperor's young age, gradually controlled the imperial power, the party bigwigs and young aspiring officials, not too much Wang Yan's power, but also hope that he can delegate power, so that they have the opportunity to play, and do not want to have a Taishang Emperor.

After years of development, the Chu Party has taken the form of a modern political party with political goals, and at the same time, it has gradually realized that the interests of the party are greater than Wang Yan's personal interests, and it has become a political interest group.

This time, the council hall passed the reform of the military system and formulated a decree stipulating that the army should be subordinate to the military department, and that the military department would be responsible for replenishing the supply of troops, distributing soldiers' salaries, and allocating materials and equipment, and that the governor's office of the five armed forces would be responsible for wartime command and training, and the power to start a war would be placed in the hands of the council.

Compared with the military system of the Ming Dynasty before the Tumubao Change, this change is actually not big, but the power belonging to the emperor is put in the council hall.

After the bill was passed, Wang Yan gave up his personal control of the Five Loyal Army in name and handed over more than 100,000 troops to the imperial court.

He gave up the command of the Wuzhong Army and handed over the army to the central government, so he asked for a position where martial arts and alcohol were avoided, how could many ministers be embarrassed not to give it.

The essence of politics lies in compromise and exchange, and if the two political forces do not back down, and insist on one side completely overpowering the other, then most likely there will be only civil war, and only two sides will lose.

Wang Yan's best use of methods over the years is compromise and exchange, which seems to be very angry, there is no happiness and hatred, but what politician is happy to be revenge?

Now the system has been determined, but to make it a rule that everyone abides by, it does not mean that it can be achieved immediately after it is decided, it will take a long process, and there will even be ups and downs.

Institutions are important, but they need to have the right soil to function in order to function, and it will take at least a few decades for this soil to be formed.

The three stages of "military administration, discipline administration, and constitutional administration" proposed by Mr. Nakayama in later generations are the process of cultivating this soil.

China has always been a society governed by individuals, and a certain principal in later generations has gone into the wilderness, but he can still manipulate the country in his hometown, although Wang Yan handed over the command of the Five Loyal Army, but his influence in the Five Loyal Army will slowly dissipate at least one generation.

Wang Yan reached a compromise with the civilian clique and exchanged the army for the position of the martial arts academy, and he mastered the martial arts academy, which was equivalent to taking Tang Lu's first army, which made them very embarrassed.

If they recommend the potential officers to the martial arts academy to study, then these officers will become Wang Yan's protégés, and the martial arts training is mainly the generals of the Wuzhong military department, and they send people to the martial arts academy, which is equivalent to giving talents to Wang Yan.

But if they don't send it, there is also a problem, that is, under the cultivation of the martial arts, the combat power and quality of the army directly under the imperial court will only get higher and higher, and the army they control will be more and more distant from the army controlled by the imperial court, and they will not be able to retain talents.

Seeing this, Tang Lu prepared to set up a martial arts school to train their officers, but he was vetoed by the cabinet and the council.

The civilian clique is more and more fond of the current political environment, Wang Yan has handed over the military power, they naturally have their eyes on Tang Lu, as long as the imperial court collects the military power, then they will have the final say in the future, even if the emperor wants it in the future, they will not hand over the military power.

After the military reform was passed, it was inevitable that the five loyal armies were organized into the five forbidden armies in the front and back, and they belonged directly to the imperial court.

Then the question arises again, who is the front, who is the back, who is the left, who is the right, and who is the center?

Liu Shun, who was stationed in Yangzhou, was close to Wang Yan, so he wrote to Wang Yan, saying that he knew that he was not the best at fighting, but it was not the worst, and he didn't want to be in the Chinese army, but he didn't want to give the title of the rear army, otherwise he would not be able to explain to his subordinates. Li Guo from Hefei also wrote to inquire, and he didn't want the number of the rear army between his words. Dai Zhifan was more explicit, looking back on his own exploits, Wang Yan saw that he wanted to compete for the name of the Chinese army.

Before and after, left and right, originally because of the five military governors, divided into five governors, before and after, left and right, I didn't expect the people below to care so much, Wang Yan immediately issued an edict, after the reorganization of the five loyal troops, the number of each town remained the same, and the front and back only appointed each governor, but even so, the generals did not settle down.

Before the Ming Dynasty, the five military governors, only the left and right governors, now in order to take care of the grades of the five loyal army generals, but also in order to leave a seat for the Tang Lu faction, the imperial court has made certain adjustments to the grades and official positions of the five military governors, each government has a large governor, for the first product, two governors on the left and right, for the second product, the governor knows two people, from the second product; There are four governors, and they are three products.

In peacetime, the five metropolitan governors, the five left metropolitan governors, and the five right metropolitan governors, all of whom are stationed in Nanjing, remotely control the soldiers and horses who dominate the world, and are sent to various theaters of war in wartime to command battles, and in principle, to command a theater of war, or a town, for no more than five years, so as to prevent generals from supporting their own troops and forming warlords.

How to rank the governors of the five armies, this is also a difficult problem for Wang Yan, Wang Yan thought about it, it is better to have an autumn exercise, and it is better to compare with each other.

In this way, in the name of Qiu Cao, a few generals can be called to Nanjing to adapt to the five armies, and they can also be compared, so that no one will be unconvinced.

It's just that in this autumn exercise, in addition to the participation of the people and horses brought back by the various generals, there are also martial arts students who have been trained for three months, and they also have to leak their faces.
