Chapter 920: Huang Taiji can't die like this
Zhang Zhun woke up in the morning, refreshed, "I didn't feel tired at all." Stretching his waist hard, Zhang Zhun felt as if he could come a few more times. It is estimated that Ji Yuqing is making trouble, "probably using aphrodisiacs or something, otherwise, I would definitely not be so violent." Three virgins, that's amazing. Damn, this kind of lewdness is indeed unprecedented. Do you say that you have fallen? The grass life has not yet succeeded, the comrades still need to work hard, but they have begun to be lustful? Well, it seems that "I really fell into the ground...... However, it tastes really good......
"My lord, the front line reports that Gaizhouwei has recovered!"
Staff officer Wang Junyu suddenly came in to report.
The staff work of the Englishman Hiber Thomas was indeed good. Under his teaching, "the Tiger Army has a group of young people with a literate foundation, who have become staff officers of various branches of the military. This Wang Junyu received a period of study, and then came to Zhang Zhun's side. Wang Shide is indeed too busy to be alone.
"Good!"
Zhang Zhun said admiringly.
Zhou Yanyu and Li Yang's work as another guy is really good, and they forced Yue Tuo to retreat so quickly. But "when you think about it, it's to be expected, and it's not very surprising. If Yue Tuo hadn't been forced back, it would have been strange.
The person in charge of garrisoning Gaizhou Wei was Yue Tuo, and there were not many troops under his command. According to intelligence, the Tartar cavalry under his command was less than 2,000 people. The other troops attached to the battle, scattered and scattered, may be three or four thousand people. Such a force "under the combined attack of an infantry battalion and an artillery battalion of the Tiger Ben Army, it will definitely not be able to hold the Gaizhou Guard."
Shang Zhixin, who assisted Yue Tuo in garrisoning Gaizhouwei, had already fled, and at the same time took all the Han army flags with him. This was a very fatal blow to Yue Tuo. You must know that Gaizhouwei's cannons and the like are all manipulated by the Han military banner. Now, the Han military flag has run away, and Yue Tuo is afraid that he will not even be able to find the person who operates the cannon.
In the rear of Gaizhouwei, a large number of slaves revolted. These rebellious slaves "were all sent to Liaodong by the Tiger Army, and they were launched." The momentum of an organized and premeditated insurrection was quite large. They were already a serious threat to Yueto's rear. Yuetuo's direct contact with Liaoyang "may be completely severed."
In such a situation, don't say that Yue Tuo can't contain Gai Zhouwei, even if he changes himself, it will be very difficult! "The Tartars do not have enough troops, this is their weakness. As the battle develops, the strength of the Tartars will continue to decrease. The next time, there are uncomfortable for them.
"How is the direction of Changbai Mountain?"
Zhang Zhun asked casually.
In the direction of Changbai Mountain, the two sides of the confrontation are Amin and Lu Xiangsheng. The Tiger Army had an advantage in strength and equipment, while the Tartars had "an advantage in terrain." The previous intelligence was that the Tiger Ben Army was advancing slowly and steadily.
"There is no progress for the time being."
Wang Junyu replied cautiously.
In fact, Lu Xiangsheng's side "is not without progress at all." It's still possible to travel two or three miles a day. The problem is that "this rate of progress" is indeed too slow. Relative to the other directions of the march, they have fallen last. If you don't want to change your view, "besiege the feast of Liaoyang, I'm afraid they won't be able to catch up."
"Tell Lu Xiangsheng and Li Jue the news of the recovery of Gai Zhouwei. At the same time, tell them that "just say what I said, if they go slowly, there will be no good show". ”
After pondering for a moment, Zhang Zhun said slowly.
"Understood."
Wang Junyu replied solemnly.
"Is there any news from Huang Taiji?"
Zhang Zhun suddenly asked.
"Not yet."
Wang Junyu replied regretfully.
After this cold winter, Huang Taiji has been staying in Qingning Palace in Shenyang and has never come out. As for his physical condition, "the meticulous work of the Tiger Ben Army cannot be further investigated." In general, "Huang Taiji's body is not very good, and he often needs to take medicine to maintain it." However, it did not reach the point of death.
"There you go!"
Zhang Zhun thoughtfully nodded, "Yes!" ”
Wang Junyu turned around and left.
"I hope Huang Taiji won't hang up in advance."
Zhang Zhun said to himself.
He really didn't want Huang Taiji to hang up. If Huang Taiji died like this, many things would not be perfect. The anger of the people of the Ming Kingdom needs to be vented. The best object to vent is naturally Huang Taiji. The name "Huang Taiji" is still very unforgettable for the people of the Ming Kingdom, especially for the people of Beizhili.
With the death of Huang Taiji, the people will not be able to vent their anger. Only the living Huang Taiji is of great use. Zhang Zhun has already thought about it, as long as he catches Huang Taiji, he will immediately put it in a cage "from Liaodong all the way to the mainland, exhibit along the way, and visit for free." What a hilarious thing that must be. He could see the scene of thousands of empty alleys.
"Huang Taiji, you can't die like this!"
Zhang Zhun said coldly to himself.
After a moment of silence, his gaze fell on the documents on the desk, these documents were all transferred from all over the world, and they were all relatively important documents. If it was an ordinary matter, the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion of the Tiger Ben Army in Fushan City would be dealt with, and it would not be transferred to Zhang Zhun's hands. In general, the number of documents on Zhang Zhun's desk is not very large.
For the current life of running around, Zhang Zhun did not feel uncomfortable. Similarly, the people around Zhang Zhun did not say that Zhang Zhun was running around unruly. Because, someone has set their eyes on the Forbidden City early in the morning. In their opinion, Zhang Zhun will have to live in the Forbidden City sooner or later, and he is just looking for a random place to live at present. In that case, there is no problem where to work.
The Tiger Ben army had a "fairly strong" force outside the city of Beijing and could launch an attack on the city at any time. Therefore, "many people feel that the Forbidden City is already in the bag of the Tiger Army." Now it is not a question of whether the Forbidden City can be conquered, but when it will be attacked.
The Forbidden City is close to the end and can be taken at any time", which makes many people feel that the capital of the country established by the Tiger Ben Army in the future should be in Beijing. After all, in the current environment, "Beijing is safer than Luoyang."
Of course, there are many people who support Luoyang. From a logistical point of view, Luoyang is indeed more advantageous than Beijing. From the perspective of the environment, Luoyang is also superior to Beijing. From the perspective of future expansion, Luoyang seems to be more favorable. Sadly ......"
"Let them discuss it slowly!"
Zhang Zhun rubbed his temples and put down the relevant paperwork.
Regarding the issue of the capital, Zhang Zhun actually has no opinion. In his opinion, "where the capital is, it seems to be the same." The key to the country's long-term peace and stability lies in the system. As long as the system is perfected at the beginning of the founding of the country, there will not be too many problems in the future.
When it comes to the system, we have to mention the second very important issue, and that is the cabinet. This issue is also mentioned more frequently in recent instruments. Compared with the location of the capital, the establishment of the cabinet seems to be more urgent. After the Tiger Benjun continued to expand its territory, Gao Hongtu, Zhang Shenyan, Qiao Yunsheng, Yang Tinglin, Lu Xiangsheng and others "began to mention" the establishment of a cabinet structure under Zhang Zhun. This cabinet, like the cabinet of the imperial court, is basically the same. The main function is to cooperate with the work of the emperor (Zhang Zhun) "and at the same time limit the power of the emperor at a certain time."
Since the cabinet involves the distribution of power and Zhang Zhun's personal hobbies, the wording of "when they mention the cabinet, they are relatively vague" is more cautious. However, reading between the lines, Zhang Zhun can still see that their desire to establish a cabinet is very strong.
In fact, Zhang Zhun is not averse to the cabinet. Some of the systems of the Ming Dynasty were actually very advanced, and there was no need to tear them all down and start over. Take, for example, the Cabinet. The cabinet of the Ming Dynasty was not formed at the beginning of the founding of the country, but slowly evolved by itself. It can be said that "this is a system that meets the needs of social development." Despite the absence of a parliament, the emergence of the cabinet has already imposed certain limits on imperial power to a considerable extent.
The emperor did not abstain, no.
The emperor has too much power and can't do it. This is the basic idea of Zhang Zhun. The emperor has no power, and he and his family descendants are very likely to be wiped out, and they will not even leave a bit of scum. If the emperor has too much power, he may lead the country to the abyss. The wisdom of one man is certainly not as good as the wisdom of seven.
The most stable period of the Ming Kingdom was the period when the cabinet and imperial power were equal. Imperial power and cabinet power contain and balance each other, which is the most ideal state. It seems that Jiajing and Wanli have not been in the dynasty for decades, and the country is still functioning, only the Ming Dynasty has it. By what? It's up to the Cabinet.
As long as the cabinet functions normally, even if there is no emperor, the functioning of state power will not be affected. On the contrary, once the cabinet is abolished, the state is also abolished. Chongzhen is the best example of this. Chongzhen's cabinet was abolished by himself. As a result, tired to death and not to say anything, but also to make a mess of the country.
In all fairness, Zhang Zhun "walked everywhere and shouted 'people' and lords' freedom." However, after coming into this world, after shouting for a while, "after inciting some people, I didn't shout anymore." Why? He was reluctant to give up the power in his hands. If you want to be the master of the people, you have to give some of the power in your hands to others, but after tasting the taste of power, who wants to let go? However, Zhang Zhun also knows that dictatorship is only suitable for himself. to their own children and grandchildren, and they will be finished. can be 100% sure that his son "is definitely not as capable as his father." Who is Dad? It's a traverser! The son of the traverser, is he capable of standing up to the traverser? It's impossible.
Once the next emperor is not capable, "it's over." He, the emperor, has made a mess of the country, and he may also bring the entire imperial family into danger. You can be dictatorial, and of course others can be dictatorial. If someone stronger than the emperor rises up to fight for the throne, I am afraid that there will be another bloody rain and a sea of blood. Such an example is right in front of Zhu Di and Zhu Yunfen, isn't it?
Since dictatorship doesn't work, what about a constitutional monarchy? Of course not. Do you want to make a constitution and kill the emperor? As in England, the king only has to sign, and if someone else brings him a document to guillotine, he must sign it. Such an emperor, of course, Zhang Zhun will not do it. He, the emperor, must have real power. What kind of parliament or something, Zhang Zhun is not ready to do it. These things of the free "people" have caused a lot of pain.
Come to think of it, the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty is the most suitable. The emperor has the right, the cabinet has the right, and it just happened. However, the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty still lacked some places, that is, there was no clear imperial power and cabinet power. If there is no clear distinction, it is easy to fight and fight for power. Once the imperial power and the cabinet power are caught in an endless struggle, it will be troublesome again. Imperial power and cabinet power should work together" not for fighting.
What Zhang Zhun has to do is to set the structure of this power as much as possible. But how easy is it to do this? Seriously, it's good to have this idea, but if you really want to refine it, it will be like a big head. Many laws and regulations of later generations are inappropriate to apply in this era!
"Headache."
Zhang Zhun couldn't help rubbing his Sun Yao, who was relatively thick, he was indeed not suitable for copywriting work, as long as he thought about serious issues, he couldn't help but have his head swell. He really admired the kings of the past dynasties, how to deal with so many movements. Well, at this point, the idea of establishing a cabinet is quite intense. If there is a cabinet, I believe he should be much easier.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound of footsteps, and he turned his head to look, "It turned out to be Liu Xianqian coming in with a tray." On the tray, there is steamed goat's milk. This was requested by Ning Lingwei. As long as there are conditions, "I have to drink a little goat's milk every day, it is said that I can strengthen my body, and I can beautify and raise my eyes, and I naturally look at Liu Xianqian's walking movements, and I think of last night's absurdity in my mind" The corners of my mouth couldn't help but show a trace of a smug smile. This eldest princess of North Korea was ravaged by him three times last night.
Liu Xianqian found that Zhang Zhun's face was wrong, and the "walking action" was even more unnatural, her face turned slightly red, and she whispered: "Villain!" Where to look? ”
Zhang Zhun said seriously: "I thought you were going to rest for a few days." ”
Liu Xianqian said shyly: "I'm not so delicate. ”
Zhang Zhun nodded and said with a grin: "That's good" Let's come back tonight. ”
Liu Xianqian suddenly couldn't bear it, her face was red as if it was a ripe apple, and she hurriedly said, "No!" You go to find Sister Yuqing at night! ”
Zhang Zhun tilted his head and said, "I like fresh ones." ”
Liu Xianqian blushed, didn't talk to him, put down the goat's milk, turned around and went slowly.! ~!
