"Your Majesty, we ......"

As soon as Zhao Hu wanted to say something, he was stopped by Xiao Ruxun.

"I know, this kind of worry can't be relieved by just talking, nor can it be lifted by the iron coupons I gave you Danshu, the former Ming Taizu gave countless iron coupons, but he also killed countless people, in front of the imperial power, even his own father and son and his biological brothers can sword each other, not to mention a piece of iron lump?"

What Xiao Ruxun said was a little too frank, and the honesty made everyone a little unbelievable.

"Imperial power is indeed a very important thing, the temptation is too great, even I can't guarantee that I won't do anything to you under the temptation of imperial power, so I choose to tell you the truth before all this begins.

I want to make everything clear, because you have followed me all the way, you have made meritorious contributions and endured hardships, I can not get to where I am today without your efforts, I don't want me to end up becoming Zhu Yuanzhang's second, to be honest, I don't like many of Zhu Yuanzhang's practices. ”

Xiao Ruxun continued: "But I can understand his worries and his purpose in doing this, I have already experienced it before I officially became the emperor, I am worried, I will be worried, I will be suspicious, I will also be suspicious of you, I can't even control myself."

So I hope you can understand that in a few days, I will be the emperor, not your handsome, I am no longer the handsome who can walk with you and talk about the future, you must remember that I am the emperor!

I hope you can understand how to distinguish between the great commander and the emperor, so you must arrange your family in the capital division, and I will give you a certain amount of land around the capital division, and you must do this. ”

Xiao Ruxun glanced at everyone, and then fixed his gaze on Li Rusong.

"Especially you, Zimao, you should understand what I'm most worried about about you."

Li Rusong took a deep breath, stood up, walked to Xiao Ruxun and knelt down.

"The last general is willing to send his father and family to Beijing, which is also my father's expectation, and I ask Your Majesty to make proper arrangements."

This level of compromise Xiao Ruxun had long expected.

But this is not enough.

The degree of independence of the Liaodong Army and the poor situation in Liaodong made Xiao Ruxun worried.

"No, that's not enough."

Xiao Ruxun said again: "If you want me to continue to appoint you, continue to let you lead the troops, and let you gallop on the battlefield, you must accept my transformation of the Liaodong Army, and you must accept any personnel changes I make to the Liaodong Army."

In the former Ming Dynasty, the Liaodong Army was in a semi-independent state, you all have private soldiers, only listen to you and don't listen to the imperial court, I don't allow it, I don't allow any army on the territory of Great Qin that is not under my control, remember, it's any one. ”

Xiao Ruxun stared straight at Li Rusong: "The Li clan has deep roots in Liaodong, and Liaodong is the future of Great Qin's army, I have a lot of plans in Liaodong, I can't allow anyone to interfere, I will give you and the generals of the Liaodong Army some compensation."

But after that, you, and the Li family, including your cronies, can no longer serve in the Liaodong Army, and the Liaodong Army must be completely handed over to the central government to deal with, and I will set up a formal government in Liaodong, and the entire territory of Liaodong will be included in the central government. ”

Li Rusong pursed his lips, and his body trembled slightly.

Xiao Ruxun's words were unquestionable, faintly threatening.

He could believe that if he and the Liaodong Army did not cooperate in any way, the next day it would attract the two major cavalry corps of the Wolf Warrior Battalion and the Wild Lion Battalion to rush to attack.

No, that's not all, Xiao Ruxun's 200,000 elite troops around Jingshi can rush to Liaodong at any time to crush his Liaodong army to pieces, if he dares to resist.

Xiao Ruxun, who was born as a general, knows better than anyone the importance of military power to the stability of the country.

Li Rusong also understands all this.

So, he knew what to do.

"The last general...... Obey Your Majesty's orders, dare not resist anything, everything ...... At the disposal of His Majesty. ”

Li Rusong made such a decision in the midst of contradiction and fear.

Xiao Ruxun nodded slowly.

"Very good, you didn't disappoint me, Zimao, I will continue to appoint you, appoint the Li family, and protect the wealth of the Li family."

Then, Xiao Ruxun looked at Chai Guozhu.

Chai Guozhu's strength is much weaker than Li Rusong, and he is also more honorable, kneeling directly in front of Xiao Ruxun and handing over everything he has.

"The last general will be at the disposal of His Majesty."

There is nothing more appreciated by Xiao Ruxun than this kind of dryness.

"Very good, Qingxiao, I will continue to appoint you to ensure your wealth."

Then, Xiao Ruxun continued: "Since ancient times, there has been no military general who will not be afraid of leading troops, and there are few generals who have led troops to make military exploits can get a good death, everyone knows that this is not good, but the suspicion is together, it cannot be suppressed, this is a fact that the emperor cannot change."

When I was a general, I hated the court's restraint and suspicion of me, and it was clear that I had no disobedience, but now, I can understand what this feeling is, and when this suspicion cannot be resolved normally, it will lead to a mutiny. ”

Saying this, Xiao Ruxun looked at his generals, led by Zhao Hu, and they all lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.

"And there are actually reasons why the generals don't have too many ways out, except that leading the troops is leading the troops, and once the military power is stripped away, it is actually no different from death for the generals, and they are slaughtered by others, so the generals are unwilling to take the initiative to let go of the military power, I thought about it for a long time, and in order to change this situation, I decided to set up a military school."

Xiao Ruxun continued to say his plan.

"Military Academy?"

Zhao Hu and the others all looked at Xiao Ruxun strangely.

"Yes, military schools, martial arts schools specializing in training martial artists, and literati set up schools to train literati, I think that if the army wants to remain strong, it must also have schools that train martial artists, there are also teachers, there are also students, and they also learn cultural knowledge, literacy and reading, but specializing in military affairs, Sun Tzu's Art of War, Wu Zi's Art of War, etc. are the four books and five classics of our martial artists."

When they said this, everyone understood, and everyone looked at each other in amazement, and no one could speak.

"Literati can train more literati through academies, some people are officials, some people are teachers, I think military generals can also be, in the past, military generals were hereditary inheritance, how can hereditary inheritance compare to the national selection? Therefore, the decline of the former Ming military generals and the strength of civil officials are a matter of course.

Therefore, I decided to set up a military academy to train military generals in the way of literati, recruit young people who wanted to join the army nationwide, and maintain the quality and quantity of officers by educating them. ”

Xiao Ruxun stretched out his hand and pointed at the generals: "And you are their best teachers." ”

"Teacher?"

The generals couldn't help but blurt out.

Can a military general become a teacher?

In the traditional sense, an illiterate old man can also become a teacher? Although they are not illiterate, they are able to read and write without barriers.

But it's unthinkable.

Can the honorable title of teacher also be possessed by a rude general?

For the generals who are accustomed to the inheritance of bloodline, this is simply a fantasy, but from Xiao Ruxun's mouth, this is not strange at all.

"Your Majesty, do you mean that I can enter a military academy and become a teacher after I am too old to join the army? Train new generals in the army? ”

Liao Zhong was obviously a smart person, and he quickly understood what Xiao Ruxun meant.
