Ye Hua once recruited good sons to join the army, carried out centralized training for the new army, and also added corresponding cultural courses to break the shortcomings of returning soldiers. The warlords were eliminated, and a strong fighting force was retained.

It's just that with the advent of firearms, the original military system is no longer enough.

"Your Highness, this time the disarmament should focus on the elite army. Our supply of firearms is already sufficient, and all the original forbidden armies and local armies can be dismantled, and only a certain number of cavalry needs to be retained. And in order to adapt to the combat of the firearms age, we need to set up a complete staff system to assist the commander-in-chief and command the operation! ”

Guo Zongxun has learned a lot of skills from Ye Hua, but he has never learned the art of war.

Sometimes Guo Zongxun feels strange, the teacher bears the name of the champion Hou, and it stands to reason that he should be the first person in the world...... But Guo Zongxun also knew that Ye Hua's martial arts were not as good as Zhao Kuangyin, and he couldn't even compare to most generals, and he couldn't see how powerful he was in front of the battle, and he didn't come up with many tricks, even Guo Zongxun felt that the master's name was filled with water.

But when he really talked to Ye Hua about the whole army...... Guo Zongxun was taken aback, and threw himself to the ground, it turned out that the teacher's knowledge of the art of war had reached an extraordinary height, and he was not studying the superficial problem of how to fight a battle...... Ye Hua is studying how to build an army and how to use all the national strength to defeat all enemies......

Even without Chai Rong's will, Ye Hua also thought about the issue of reorganizing the army.

In the past, the Zhou soldiers could only partially prepare firearms, but after the appearance of the steam engine, it became inevitable that the whole army should be equipped with firearms.

The power of firearms is enormous, but the drawbacks of firearms are also obvious.

In the era of cold weapons, if a soldier is given a knife and a spear, as long as the weapon is not broken, he can keep fighting...... But firearms don't work, no gunpowder, no projectiles, a musket is not as good as a burning stick!

Those infinitely powerful gods of war can easily cost hundreds of catties or thousands of catties...... How many animals are needed to pull the weapon?

"In the age of firearms, the real test is logistical capabilities. In the art of war, it is said that the army has not moved, and the grain and grass go first. In the age of firearms, not only food and grass, but also munitions, not only in advance, but also in a timely and sufficient manner, which may almost cause uncontrollable consequences. In the era of firearms, fighting is logistics, and the role of generals has been greatly weakened, and it is even more difficult to win more with less. ”

"In order to understand the enemy's situation, but also to understand oneself, in the face of complex situations, it is necessary to have professional personnel to assist the commander and coordinate everything. These people are not staff members, not adjutant generals, nor supervisors...... Rather, they are fully trained, have careful thinking, strong actuarial skills, and are able to understand all aspects of the military and provide a variety of alternatives to the main generals...... I call these professionals staff officers! ”

……

Wang Pu has been in Youzhou for ten days, and on the first day he came, he saw Chai Rong, the Son of Heaven did not look good, but it did not look very serious, and the old man was slightly relieved.

After he entered the industry, he handled various affairs for Chai Rong, and soon everything became orderly, and Wang Pu's administrative ability was definitely the first in the world.

There is no need to be entangled in mundane affairs, Chai Rong has more time to recuperate, and after ten days, he is much more energetic. On this day, he took the initiative to invite Wang Pu over and accompany him on a stroll.

In the past, the monarchs and ministers often walked in the hidden mansion, and Wang Pu was definitely the one who could make Chai Rong feel at ease.

"Mr. Wang, I let your granddaughter marry Ye Xi, I didn't wronged the child, right?"

If someone else hears this, they are guaranteed to be shocked...... The strongest civil ministers, plus the strongest generals, they formed a marriage, and it was actually instructed by the emperor behind his back, what are you kidding?

Could it be that Chai Rong thinks that his dragon chair is too stable and wants to find some excitement?

No matter what the emperor thought, Wang Pu was quite satisfied.

"Your Majesty, Ye Xi's kid doesn't have the arrogance of Young Master Houmen, he is smart and sympathetic to the weak. If the princess is of the same age, he is the perfect choice for a colt! ”

Chai Rong snorted, "Who said no, there is no way, I can only cheapen you!" ”

Wang Pu smiled, "Your Majesty is as kind to the champion Hou as a mountain, it is really a model of monarchs and ministers throughout the ages, and the old ministers are so convinced that they are all on the ground." ”

Chai Rong chuckled, "Mr. Wang, people who have always had the ability to have arrogance have a backbone, and with Ye Hua's talent, he didn't even pay attention to the sages, let alone the Son of Heaven." If I had been driven by power, he would have turned against me a long time ago. ”

Wang Pugan laughed twice, it was not easy to answer, he and Ye Hua are also in-laws now, Chai Rong is too right, for people like Ye Hua, they can only be bound by love and righteousness, and they cannot abuse their power and scheming, otherwise, even if they die, they don't know.

Not to mention how many characters Ye Hua has overthrown, just over the years, industry, education, military system, Juntian...... Step by step development, which step can be without Ye Hua's participation, Da Zhou can have today, he can be called the first merit!

It is especially rare, for more than ten years, Ye Hua has hardly made any big mistakes, and many things have been laid out since more than ten years ago, and by the time he found out, it had come to pass.

It's as if he can see through the future!

"Mr. Wang, you see, this is Ye Hua's plan for me to eliminate the forbidden army."

"So fast!"

Wang Pu hurriedly took it and unfolded it, the more he looked, the more pleased he became, and he nodded frequently.

"Your Majesty, Lord Hou's law is really a plan for the country!"

Chai Rong was even more pleased, "Among the ministers, Ye Qing should be the first person who knows the meaning of the most, and you, Mr. Wang, can only be ranked second!" ”

"With the champion Hou here, Lao Chen can shoot second, and he is already satisfied." Wang Pu didn't have the slightest intention of fighting, the reason was very simple, he was really convinced!

Ye Hua proposed the staff officer system, and incidentally suggested that Chai Rong set up a military academy to specialize in training military talents.

The military academy system was established, and all generals and staff officers, from military schools, these people were also protégés of the Son of Heaven, and they would naturally be loyal to the emperor. As for the original general, it will be completely eliminated, and if you want to protect yourself, you can only integrate into the new system......

Chai Rong eradicated the warlords, but did not solve the problem of the number of gates.

In the current army, the Zhao family, the Fu family, the Gao family, the Yang family, and the Murong family are all led by fathers, sons and brothers, and the generals under them are also the leaders of the small army, and their strength is amazing.

The rest of the Shi family, the Cao family, the Wang family, and the Han family are also similar, one person is a general, and one family is a general, and then the clan joins the army and develops into a huge general.

Chai Rong really doesn't have many ways to deal with these people...... They support the whole army, and they have to rely on them to recruit and kill for the country, expand the territory, and they can't be killed easily. However, the power of these people is increasing day by day, which makes Chai Rong worried.

"Mr. Wang, some time ago, the imperial army invaded the Khitan Shangjing, and Shen Yilun entered the city to comfort the people...... As a result, he was surrounded by several soldiers and scolded him, saying that the military generals would take down the city, and the civil officials would come over to pick up the bargain, and he was forced to drink three glasses of apology wine before he gave up! ”

Chai Rong didn't say anything further, but Wang Pu was shocked.

Proud soldiers, this is death!

Shen Yilun is a high-ranking official at the level of Shangshu, even if it is Zhao Kuangyin and others, they have to be polite, just a small soldier, how dare they embarrass him? Could it be that someone is behind it?

"Mr. Wang." Chai Rong said again: "After taking Shangjing and driving away the Khitan, I once gathered the generals and carried out a hunt...... I was chasing a wild deer, and suddenly an arrow came at me, and I narrowly escaped and shot one of the guards, and he ...... Poisoned to death! ”

What the!

Wang Pu's color changed suddenly, like being struck by lightning, and his fingers kept trembling.

When shooting, it is not strange that there are occasional misses, but if the arrow is smeared with poison, it is intentional, and someone actually wants to assassinate His Majesty?

"Sage, this matter must not be easily overturned, it should be thoroughly investigated to the end!"

Chai Rong looked at him, "Mr. Wang, I was in front of the army at that time, how should I check, who should I check?" ”

Wang Pu was stunned for a moment, and then figured it out, the army was outside, and it had just defeated a strong enemy, and the remnants of the Khitan still existed. If the assassination case is pursued and the people in the army are implicated, the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, and the ghost knows what will happen.

Even Chai Rong can only suffer a dumb loss, and he can't make a noise.

But since that time, Chai Rong announced that he was unwell, reduced the summoning of generals, and then returned to Youzhou to live temporarily.

left the Khitan, but the case of the assassination was like a thorn, firmly poking Chai Rong's heart.

He still remembered the last time Mima had an accident and threw him off...... This situation has occurred repeatedly, and Chai Rong feels that there is a problem in the army, and it is still a big problem!

There should be a group of people who are ready to target the Son of Heaven.

"I left the army in Youzhou and let the prince preside over the elimination of the forbidden army, just to force this group out!" Chai Rong gritted his teeth and said: "The thief who killed the king and killed his father, I will never tolerate it!" Mr. Wang, you handle all kinds of government affairs for me, I continue to recuperate, and let Ye Qing continue to reorganize the army...... It is estimated that these people will not wait long, they will definitely jump out! Chai Rong clenched his fists, he was about to kill!

Wang Pu finally understood what Chai Rong meant, it turned out that he was using the name of the whole army to investigate the traitors in the army! This group of people can assassinate the Son of Heaven repeatedly, and their power will never be small, just in front of the army, or in the capital, there are also accomplices, Chai Rong can't say...... That's why he stayed in Youzhou, took care of Ye Hua and led the snake out of the hole.

Needless to say, the tacit understanding between the monarch and the minister, even if Chai Rong did not give Ye Hua the will, Ye Hua could come up with a plan that surprised Chai Rong, comprehensively reorganize the army, build a military academy, and the generals will come out of the school, and the traditional generals will face a catastrophe.

With such Mount Tai at the top, no one will be caught.

Chai Rong has a number in his heart, and Ye Hua also knows in his heart.

It's just that Ye Hua was very surprised that the first person to object to his army reorganization plan was actually his father-in-law Fu Yanqing. The old prince didn't ask the truth for a long time, and in addition to playing with Ye San all day long, he went to listen to the play and drink tea, and also raised two thrushes.

Ye Hua really couldn't imagine how his old man could care about mundane things!

"Dad, you have something to ask me to come over, why bother to come by yourself."

Fu Yanqing sat on the chair with his ass, the fat poured out of the chair, the old prince gasped for a while, and then said angrily: "What do you want to do?" Are you going to lay off Fu Zhaoxin and them? ”
