After sending away Li Kuo and other officials of the Ministry of Rites, Zhao Ziliang then met with Zang Xiyan, Wei Boyu, Luo Yuanguang and the prison army Ma Chenggong, Gu Tongde, Mu Zihe and others. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"The army of the day after tomorrow is about to go on an expedition, do the generals have anything to say to this king and the emperor?" Zhao Ziliang asked.

Zang Xiyan, as the main general, naturally had to express his position first, and said: "Thanks to the value and trust of the regent and His Majesty, to hand over such an important leading combat task to the veteran, the veteran can't pat his chest and pack the ticket to quell Li Zhongchen's rebellion, so he can only do his best, even if he confesses this old bone in the Xiangyang area, he will not hesitate!" ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded, looked at Wei Boyu and Luo Yuanguang, Wei Boyu and Luo Yuanguang said together: "The ministers must take the lead and fight bravely to kill the enemy to relieve the siege of Xiangyang, the king and His Majesty's worries!" ”

Zhao Ziliang pondered for a moment and said: "When this king was in charge of the army, he often said to his generals and colonels that a soldier, no matter how high your martial arts are, no matter how deep your wisdom and strategy, the first thing you have to do is to obey orders, obey, obey, and obey again. If a general does not obey the orders of his superiors and disobeys the dispatch of the imperial court, no matter how strong his ability is, such a person cannot be promoted and reused, because he will not become a pillar of the country, but will become a disaster for the country! Li Zhongchen has made great contributions in the Anshi Rebellion, he is strong in martial arts and brave in battle, what are you doing now? If the imperial court's measures are slightly unsatisfactory to him, he will tear the flag and rebel, if everyone in the court officials and generals is like him, can the world still be peaceful? For such a person, the court will never tolerate it, what the court did in the past, the king can't control, but now the king is in charge, any local officials, festival envoys, and generals who oppose the court, do not obey the court dispatch, do not obey, and do not implement the court decrees will be ruthlessly exterminated, no matter how much credit he has made in the past, he can't make up for the mistakes he caused! General Zang, this king will contact the siege of Xiangyang and pacify the rebellion of Li Zhongchen to you to be responsible, that is, to express confidence in your ability to complete this combat mission, the front-line battle situation and military situation are changing rapidly, only you, the commander of the army, know the latest enemy situation best, this king and the court will not cross you to command Wei Boyu and Luo Yuanguang or any other generals, in the court, only this king has the right to issue an edict to you, and anyone else's orders are invalid, if someone does not give you an order through this king, You can refuse it! You only need to be responsible for the king and the regent's palace! ”

Zang Xiyan clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "The old minister understands! ”

Zhao Ziliang looked at Wei Boyu and Luo Yuanguang again, and said, "One of you is a military envoy of Shence, and the other is a military envoy of Zhenguo. Wei Boyu, last time the imperial court wanted to transfer you to Jiangling to serve as the Taishou, but the generals under your command refused to obey the edict, why, is the merit of your Shence Army comparable to the sky? Refused to obey the edict? This is a taboo in the court, and His Majesty is kind and easy to speak, if it is in the hands of this king, this king will definitely behead all the generals who make trouble to show the public, and then come to you, the lord, to settle accounts! How did you lead the troops? Is it you, the Lord, who are unaware of it, or are you deliberately and secretly instigating? After all, this incident did not happen after the reign of this king, and the previous incident, this king can not blame it in the past, but if this kind of non-edict situation occurs again in the future, even if you don't know, this king will never spare you, the main general, and your subordinates will not obey the edict, and you, the main general, will not be able to escape the blame no matter what! ”

"And you Luo Yuanguang, your father-in-law Luo Fengxian has never done anything beneficial to the imperial court, and he also teamed up with Ju Wenzhen and others to form a party for personal gain, deceive the Holy Hearing, frame Zhongliang, and cause chaos to the court! The emperor did not punish them for these things, and this king is not good at overstepping his bounds, but this does not mean that this king will condone them in the future, if they dare to do the above again, this king will never spare them! What is a eunuch? The eunuch should stay in the palace and serve the emperor and the ladies well, don't think about those things that shouldn't be thought! Of course, the eunuch party is the eunuch party, you are you, this king will not treat you differently because your father-in-law is Luo Fengxian, and put you in the eunuch camp, you can do the post of the military envoy of the Zhenguo Army, during this period, there may be Luo Fengxian's strength, and your own efforts, but there is also the cultivation and trust of the imperial court in you, regardless of whether Luo Fengxian has contributed to your service in the Zhenguo Army, it is not easy for you to climb to this position today, this king hopes that you can be worthy of your own efforts and the cultivation and trust of the imperial court in you! ”

"You two have listened, since General Zang was appointed as the chief general of this counterinsurgency army, his order is the highest order for you, as long as the edict of this king and the regent palace does not conflict with General Zang's military order, you must all unconditionally obey General Zang's command! If you disobey the military order, General Zang can cut it first! ”

Wei Boyu and Luo Yuanguang heard that their vests broke out in a cold sweat and their hearts tightened, and they immediately said at the same time: "We will obey General Zang's command, and we will never dare to disobey military orders!" ”

Zhao Ziliang looked at the supervising army Ma Chenggong, Gu Tongde, Mu Zihe and others, and said: "You are the supervising army, Ma Chenggong is the supervising army of the counterinsurgency army, and the same level as General Zang, Gu Tongde and Mu Zihe are the supervising army of the Shence Army and the Zhenguo Army respectively, this king is now redefining the rights and responsibilities of the supervising army with you, and the military justice department, military discipline law enforcement team, and supervision team in the army are under your command and jurisdiction, and your responsibility is to supervise military discipline, supervise the execution of the edicts of the generals, officers and soldiers of the king and the regent's palace, and prevent the generals in the army. Officers and soldiers collaborate with the enemy and rebel! You can participate in all military meetings and military briefings, you can put forward your own views and opinions on the operational strategy, you can question the commander-in-chief's combat plan, and the commander-in-chief must also give a clear explanation, but you must not interfere in the commander-in-chief's decision-making, command, and training plan for the army! Military discipline in the army is under your jurisdiction, and if someone violates military discipline, you have the right to directly intervene in the investigation, and you have the right to suspend the general and the lieutenant general below the rank of colonel, and then file a case for investigation; If the lieutenant and the chief general violate military discipline, you must first warn them before writing to the Regent's Palace, and wait for instructions from the Regent's Palace! If a person is suspected of collaborating with the enemy or attempting to start a rebellion, the adjutant general and the commander-in-chief may suspend his post and restrict his freedom of life before conducting an investigation, but there must be a time limit, and if no further evidence or clues can be found within five days, he must be released. If the adjutant and the commander-in-chief are suspected of collaborating with the enemy or attempting to start a rebellion, there must be clear and conclusive evidence before coercive measures can be taken to suspend them from their posts and restrict their freedom of life, and the command of the army will automatically be taken over by the highest-ranking general in the current army, and you have no right to dispose of them without permission. ”

"Several generals, the change of the authority and responsibility of the superintendent army is not to deliberately target a certain person, but because this is what is necessary for the military reform of the imperial army, and all the imperial army will be so stipulated in the future. In this way, on the one hand, it reduces the drawbacks of the previous supervising army interfering with the command of the commander-in-chief, and on the other hand, it can also supervise those generals who are not determined to make mistakes and prevent them from making mistakes! A long time ago, Emperor Xuanzong asked this king, saying that you are so strict with your subordinates, aren't you worried that they will resent you in their hearts? This king told Emperor Xuanzong that I would rather them resent me than regret it when they committed the crime of killing their heads in the future! You are strict with your subordinates, strict with them, not a sign of unkindness, but to love them, this king has long said to his subordinates, it is not easy for the court to train an excellent general, what is the success of a general? The growth of a famous general is inevitably accompanied by the sacrifice of tens of millions of soldiers under his command, and the experience of the generals marching and fighting is piled up by the bones of the soldiers under his command, as a high-level general of the army, you must take good care of the generals and colonels under your command, strictly restrain and supervise them, and prevent them from committing unforgivable mistakes, which is to protect them, not to be harsh! If, because of your connivance and protection, they are stray from the right path and commit unforgivable crimes, what can you do when the court will hold them accountable? Continue to protect them, or do you follow them? Go outside and ask and see what the people think of the imperial army. Soldiers are like bandits! They saw that the reaction of the imperial army was to be afraid like a tiger, instead of embracing each other, the image of the Tang army has been corrupted to this extent, isn't this the responsibility of the superiors? ”

After listening to Zhao Ziliang's words, Zang Xiyan hugged his fists and said: "The military discipline in the army has indeed been corrupted over the years, and some generals have connived at their violations of military discipline in order to gain the support of the generals and colonels under their command, and some even connived at the soldiers under their command to plunder the people during the march or after the battle. Although the veteran knows it, he is no longer in the army and has no power to do anything. Now the veteran is trusted by the king and His Majesty, and the veteran can promise the king that during the expedition, the veteran will never allow this to happen, and once discovered, ask the prison to immediately enforce the law to set an example! ”

Wei Boyu and Luo Yuanguan also immediately expressed their position: "Weichen and others also resolutely support the king's decision, respect the law enforcement and supervision power of the prison army in the army, never condone and shield violations of military discipline, and never conceal and protect suspected collaborators and attempted rebellions, and support the prison army to thoroughly investigate such cases to the end!" ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded and said, "If you can think like this, this king will be relieved." Ladies and gentlemen, Datang can't go on any longer, the people are already bitter enough! History is not created by the king and the people who sit again, but by the people of the world, even if there is no me Zhao someone, there is no you Zang someone, Wei Boyu, Luo Yuanguang, there will still be other people who will do this, as long as the people of the world choose peace, someone will stand up to end the war and make a life for the people of the world! On the contrary, if the social atmosphere is corrupt, the government is sluggish, the officialdom is corrupt, and the people are miserable, the people will choose war, end the previous political pattern and rule through war, and reorganize social resources for distribution, so that the people can survive, society can progress, and civilization can develop. The difference is that if we had done this first, the names that would have remained in the history books would have been us, including me and you! ”
