Chapter 970: It's a mule and a horse
When Chen Kaizhi said this, the hall was silent.
Twenty battalions of military horses, that is, 200,000 recruited sergeants, and the original army of one million were all disbanded, except for a few strong men who were left as government soldiers and responsible for the guards of the states, almost none remained.
If so, how many of these military attachés will be dismissed?
It is almost conceivable that the original military attaches may all be disbanded, because the new army is a completely unfamiliar existence to the traditional military attachés, and everyone knows nothing about the new army.
Chen Kaizhi said again: "For the sake of these 200,000 sailors and horses, I will order the household department to convert money and grain from now on, and every year, the military expenditure spent, from procurement to salary, to the construction of the camp, I am afraid that it will take 30 million taels of silver per year, fortunately, a large number of military horses have been removed, which can make the imperial court breathe a sigh of relief, and the rest, I am afraid that I will have to invest some more from the household department to barely maintain." ”
Liu Aotian said worriedly: "But Your Majesty, if a large number of military attaches are abolished, I am afraid that it will only ...... The soldiers are not convinced. ”
Chen Kaizhi smiled faintly: "What's not convinced, if those military attachés are still young and can probably read and write words, then, I will allow them to enter the lecture hall to study, if they can study in the lecture hall, then they will naturally be given military positions and awarded officers; If they are old, but it is not difficult, they are allowed to enter the martial arts hall to study, as long as they are willing to work hard, they will also be officers as usual, why not? But if there are still people who are not convinced, Zhang Chang and others will be their end, and now they ...... I have become more and more urgent, if it is not difficult for me to reform the system and make it new, then there will be a second Zhang Chang, a third Zhang Chang, today, Zhang Chang these people, with tens of thousands of people to kill into the palace, but what is the result, I have a battalion of 1,000 warriors, can make them not move forward, I want to establish a new army of 200,000 such people, so that all the countries in the world, hearing about the new army of Da Chen, will not change color, so that within these four seas, the military horses of any country, even if they gather the strength of the whole country, can not compete with the new army of three battalions; I want to ensure that within two years, even if Yan, Shu, Yue, Liang, and Chu are combined and are enemies of my Da Chen, my Da Chen can block them in five ways, and I can do it, and destroy the soldiers and horses of the five countries, and I will also ensure that the newly established sailors can have a decisive battle with the Yang water thieves, and ...... Annihilate it in one fell swoop. ”
Chen Kaizhi said coldly: "This is the goal I want to achieve, and in this process, if anyone prevents or opposes me to achieve this goal, I will not hesitate to kick him away and teach him to break his bones; And if you can share your worries for me, two years later, when I am extremely strong, are you still afraid that in the future, I will treat you badly? Over the years, Da Chen's endless internal friction has not only cost the people and money, but also made my Da Chen's national strength to the point of being weak, and now it is time for the monarchs and ministers to work together. ”
Liu Aotian and the others were shocked one by one.
The blueprint depicted by Chen Kaizhi, they can imagine, to be able to wage war against the five countries at the same time, and to be able to win in all directions, which was simply a fantasy in the past, but now......
There are more than 10,000 people in the warrior battalion, who has not seen their combat power?
Maybe...... This is the ...... It can be done.
And once it happens, what will Da Chen be? At that time, will it really be a guest from all over the world and enter the extreme, and for them to be heroic, I am afraid that there will be no benefit?
Liu Aotian thought for a while and gritted his teeth: "Your Majesty has made up his mind, the old minister should follow, His Majesty wants to withdraw the domain, then withdraw the domain, the old minister's military town, the first to be abolished, Your Majesty wants to build a new army, to set up a martial arts hall, the old minister has a few children and grandchildren who are not successful, willing to be sent to the martial arts hall, how to discipline, the old minister does not understand, everything depends on His Majesty's arrangement, after the withdrawal of the military town, the old minister is willing to move his family to Luoyang, the old minister is old, it is time to take care of the old age, if His Majesty has no use in the place of the old minister, the old minister will spend his old age in peace; But if His Majesty is useful to the minister, the minister is still willing to serve His Majesty. ”
In fact...... Liu Aotian is a bold and careful person, many things, when he knows that this general trend is irreparable, and then to make trouble, not only will it not be beneficial, but it will also cause disaster, then, it is better to simply not worry about this heart, first of all, His Majesty at least remembers this kindness.
With his statement, the other festival envoys also knew that the general trend was irreversible, where could they still insist, and they said: "The ministers and Lord Liu coincide, and they are willing to move to Luoyang, and please recommend their children and grandchildren to enter the hall." ”
The governors and commanders who came together to quell the rebellion this time also looked at each other, and even the Jiedu envoys were so obedient, compared to the Jiedu envoys, after all, they did not have so many parting interests, so they followed one after another.
Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but sigh: "Don't worry, I will never treat you badly, you are all my heroes, in the future, I still have a place to use you, and now, you have set an example, and this matter will be easy." ”
Liu Aotian sighed, but couldn't help but say: "It's just Your Majesty, the old minister has a word, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”
Chen Kaizhi helped him up, ordered the eunuch to ask him to sit, and said with a smile: "You might as well talk about it." ”
Liu Aotian said: "Your Majesty believes that in the previous military system, if the general rebelled, the officers and soldiers in the battalion would also rebel, so it was necessary to take precautions; But now that a new army is established, how can we ensure that this new army will not mutiny, if it does, the new army will be strong in combat, Your Majesty will ...... This is even more of a disaster. ”
In fact, his words are also reasonable, if it is only because the former military attachés are unreliable, so they want to innovate, then will the new army be reliable?
Chen Kaizhi smiled slightly: "The new army is completely different from the previous military horses, the new army is more expensive, not only that, the recruits are no longer the former military households, but all of them are good families, not only that, what I want to choose is people who can read and break words, even if they can't read and hyphenate, they need to study when they enter the camp, and I will know their righteousness, and they are not the soldiers who were confused in the past." What's more, the supply requirements of the new army are extremely high, by no means ordinary military horses, as long as they mutiny, plundered one or two granaries, they can occupy the mountain as the king, if the new army does not have enough ammunition supply, the fire gun in the hand, it is different from the burning stick, about these, I will be restrained, now, I need you old Qing family, this reduction of military horses, you need to go out of the horse, otherwise, it is inevitable that some people will not be satisfied, please Zhu Qing, on behalf of me to comfort them. ”
Liu Aotian and the others were ignorant when they heard it, but they only smiled, Liu Aotian felt more or less lost in his heart, but he still said: "The minister obeys the order, but ...... The old minister thought that although the ministers tried their best to appease, there would still be people who would not accept ......"
Chen Kaizhi's eyes flashed a trace of coldness: "If there is an internal contradiction, some people are not convinced, and some people are unhappy, then you might as well ...... I can borrow the outside to solve the problem, so that I can not only suppress the disobedience of the court, but also shake the morale of the army and the people in the world, the Western Liang Kingdom has been dissatisfied with me for a long time, over the years, they colluded with the Yang family, I have lost patience with them, and now, I have temporarily concluded an alliance with Yan, Yue, and Chu, so ...... It's time to make a move on Xiliang to shock the world. ”
Liu Aotian couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, isn't the warrior battalion guarding against water thieves now?" ”
Chen Kaizhi shook his head: "If you want to deter the people of the world, you can't do it with the warrior battalion, you have to use the new army, the new army will start tomorrow, it will be recruited, I have been practicing for several months, although it is not enough to exert combat power, but it only takes these few months, I have to pull them out and move, there is a saying that is called, it is a mule or a horse, pull it out and slip it away, I also want to pull it out and show it to the people of the world." ”
