Chapter 223: Giving Fishing to Posterity

"Jiangwutang", the most professional military school, was born on the road of the west city wall of Guangzhou, when the Yuan Dynasty 400,000 troops besieged the city.

In the name of Wen Tianxiang, in order to show respect for the imperial court, a letter was specially repaired and sent to Xinhui County to be handed over to Lu Xiufu. The letter expressed his greetings to the young emperor and the empress dowager, as well as the enemy situation that the city of Guangzhou was about to face, and finally mentioned that he would set up a martial arts hall in Guangzhou to publicize the martial arts to the world.

If you want to run a martial arts hall, why do you have to think about it so much? Since Zhao Tianyou has needs and ideas, he will directly run one, why bother going around and around, and pull Wen Tianxiang to start it together?

This is related to the basic national policy of the Great Song Dynasty that lasted for hundreds of years, when Chen Qiao mutiny was added to the yellow robe, Zhao Kuangyin turned gorgeously from the identity of a military general, and created a "miracle of establishing a great dynasty without bloodshed".

However, from the second day of his ascension to the throne, he wondered whether his generals would one day stage a mutiny of Chen Qiao, Zhang Qiao, and Li Qiao, driving him or his descendants from the throne.

Zhao Kuangyin also worked hard to separate the soldiers and generals. The forbidden armies took turns guarding the important border towns and important places in the inner counties, which not only reduced the supply burden of the Beijing division, but also left the generals without soldiers, so that it was impossible to pose a threat to the central power.

The duties and responsibilities of the civil and military official posts are complementary, and the two are mutually restrictive, but in fact, they use civil affairs to control military force, emphasize civil affairs over military force, and return power to the central government. The emperor of the Song Dynasty implemented the policy of strong cadres and weak branches, and the forbidden army, as the guard of the Son of Heaven, guarded the Beijing division in peacetime, and set out to respond to emergencies when there was something to do, so as to achieve internal and external control and maintain the balance of forces inside and outside the capital. Therefore, the Jingshi forbidden army was mainly distributed within the boundaries of Kaifeng Prefecture.

In addition to the forbidden army, there are also box troops and village soldiers. The forbidden army can be regarded as a central standing army, and the box army and the township army are used to maintain local law and order and serve as government labor. After the elite of the Xiang army and the township soldiers were transferred to the forbidden army, the rest were old, weak, sick and disabled, and they were negligent in training in peacetime, so they had no combat effectiveness at all. Many times, they were sent to build cities, make weapons, etc.

Wang Anshi once made efforts to this end, with the purpose of developing production, enriching the country and strengthening the army, and saving the political crisis of the Song Dynasty, with "financial management" and "army rectification" as the center, involving all aspects of politics, economy, military, society, and culture.

In particular, at that time, he opened martial arts in Kyoto, mainly teaching military knowledge, and selected seven kinds of martial arts knowledge from the previous Tang Dynasty to compile the "Seven Books of Martial Arts" as teaching materials at that time. However, these still can't change the reality, the successive emperors of the Song Dynasty are all holding the heart of keeping the success, the heart of guarding against internal thieves is more than the heart of guarding against foreign enemies, and the martial arts school was banned after 90 days.

Therefore, from the point of view of the emperor of the Song Dynasty and the civil servants who maintained the government, opening a martial arts school to recruit students and imparting military knowledge on a large scale is similar to plotting for the dynasty to usurp the throne and rebel, which is resolutely not allowed.

This time Zhao Tianyou's proposal, Wen Tianxiang came out with the risk of infamy, and it was also related to the weak emperor and the ups and downs of the dynasty.

Now Zhao Tianyou has put in real effort, no matter day or night, there are always two or three documents around him, and every sentence he says must be written down, sorted out the content by category, combined with the books required by the previous martial arts agent, and compiled into a textbook that Zhao Tianyou is satisfied with.

Guangzhou's city defense, training, the island's affairs, and the preparations for the martial arts hall turned Zhao Tianyou busy, but this was also the happiest day for him to come to this era. No matter how many cannons Zhao Tianyou makes, the national policy of the whole country will not change, and it is destined to fail to survive in this world of the jungle.

Maybe there are different time and space or multi-dimensional parallel worlds, at this time, Zhao Tianyou has accepted the arrangement of fate and has already set the goal on the jade belt on Kublai Khan's waist, but only with his weak combat power now, Kublai Khan will give you the belt obediently?

Zhao Tianyou thinks that he has some nationalism, which is also related to the fact that our China has been bullied by many foreign powers in modern times, since the late Qing Dynasty, China has become the world's recognized fat, and half of the countries want to rush over and take a big bite, the reason is related to the Qing Dynasty's policy of closing the country to the outside world, as well as the reason why the military strength has not been significantly improved for hundreds of years.

The main reason for opening the lecture hall was that Zhao Tianyou wanted to do something for this calamitous nation. No matter when he leaves or dies, this ancient nation can be tougher and not have to be bullied by the powers of the world in the years to come.

In the past years, Zhao Tianyou knows very well why the United States is tyrannical and domineering, driving aircraft carriers everywhere to guide the country, and can influence the fate of weak countries in a single thought, and can make tens of millions of people from other countries fall into war for the sake of the domestic economy.

Because he has a strong military, so strong that there is no rival to match it, this brings more economic power, attracts talent, forms a proud and more united people, and forms a virtuous circle that throws other countries farther.

Zhao Tianyou can't see the future of the Song Dynasty now, so he wants to lay a solid foundation and leave some good things that can be used by the Chinese nation for a lifetime, that is, starting from strengthening himself and starting from attaching importance to the military and opening a martial arts hall.

Zhao Tianyou was dictating military knowledge in the study, and several clerks next to him were writing hard, for fear of missing a word or remembering a wrong sentence.

"General Zhao, is General Zhao here?"

The person outside the study interrupted Zhao Tianyou's train of thought, and looked at the few tired clerks in front of him, and he thought that he had been talking for another hour, and the arms of these clerks were estimated to be sore.

"Get here here today, you go back and rest for a while, and come back to me tomorrow morning!"

sent away the clerks, and saw Ling Zhen standing outside in military uniform, embarrassed because he interrupted Zhao Tianyou, but he wanted to speak and stopped his uncomfortable expression.

"What's wrong, General Ling? Is there a critical military situation? ”

Ling Zhen puffed up and said: "It's not military intelligence, it's a few days ago, didn't I capture six hundred prisoners from Humen Town, and I haven't been detained and haven't dealt with it." I said that I would behead them to sacrifice the army, but many people were against me, and Lord Zhang and some civil officials felt that it was unrighteous! ”

"Yuan soldiers are captive, why do you want to bring them back? Since they don't want to be beheaded, it's better to send me to the POW Island. ”

Ling Zhen gritted his teeth and said viciously: "No, this group of prisoners of war can't be spared, not a single one, otherwise I'm sorry for the people who were brutalized by them." ”

"What's hidden in Humen Town? You haven't told me? ”
