Chapter 557: Slaying the Wolf (5)

"Once something happens to them, you will know how many means the court has to restrain them! Therefore, in military affairs, everything has to be cautious, just to be able to slow down this period, this is a fundamental matter related to the country and the dynasty, how can you not be careful? On the same day, the two armies went out, and the old minister already felt that it was impossible, but the ministers had the same opinion, and the old minister only had a duan mo...... What the palace view sees is too shallow! Cai Jingyi was strict, Zhao Ji and Liang Shicheng were dizzy when they heard it, and they couldn't make a sound for a while.

After all, Cai Jing is an important minister who has been in power for a long time, he is both smart and has been in the world for a long time, and there is nothing unclear about this Great Song Dynasty, as for that Yang Ling, he has repeatedly made him sigh of distraction, but because Yang Ling has often taken out a means to surpass Cai Jing's experience.

At this moment, the Great Song Dynasty does have fundamental shaken worries, the civil bureaucracy of the king and the scholars who rule the world together is fundamentally in the military group of the military ministers, and the Great Song Dynasty has been sparing no effort to limit this military group, and the status of the military ministers in politics is almost unreasonable, and the combination of other means to maintain the system of the Great Song Dynasty for more than 100 years.

But more than 100 years later, these means have gradually lost their effectiveness, and the continuous war with the Western Xia, coupled with the national policy of Shenzong's future determination to forge ahead in the west, so that many people have risen with military merits, and the status of military ministers is gradually not lower than before, and the heavy generals are like a kind of family, etc., and they have almost been able to compete with the scholar class, and Zhao Ji was a dynasty, mixed with the ministers of Xingjin, the party struggle was more intense, and the destruction of morale was also extremely amazing.

From the institutional point of view, the essence of the original central forbidden army far exceeds the Quartet, and the military towns in the border areas of the country are also balanced and can contain each other, even if the central forbidden army, there are layers of prevention, the upper four armies are used to suppress the other Dumen garrisoned forbidden army, and above the four armies, there are many names, all of which are elite Zhuban direct pro-army, but more than a hundred years later, especially because of the impact of the Western Xia war, all the capabilities have been unbalanced, the Western Army has been excessively strong, and the central forbidden army, from top to bottom, has been completely rotten, Even the effect of the layers of containment within the Imperial Control Army has been completely lost.

Needless to say, the Western Army and so on, their own return to the Quartet, the army escort smuggling, etc., have been able to support their own expenses a lot, not to mention that the land production of Shaanxi Zhulu is almost all attributed to the Western Army, large and small generals, has begun to take shape of a feudal town group, that is, the capital gate ban army, a huge amount of funds are allocated every year, how to use the imperial court, regardless of whether the west or the east is not very involved. Not to mention that it is becoming more and more difficult for the imperial court to deal with these military expenditures, and it can only manage the army's financial affairs more and more loosely.

Now it can barely maintain the system of using literature to control the military, it is nothing more than the huge inertia of the times, in case there are any factors that make the army of the Great Song Dynasty have an accident, and then it will be difficult for this system to maintain the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty to operate!

Since the middle of the Great Song Dynasty, the war against the Western Xia has lasted for decades, and the country's finances have also tilted towards it, and how many governance strategies have also tried to cooperate with this war, throughout the ages, but whenever a war lasts so long, it has a huge impact on the stable ruling system, even if Yang Ling came to the era before the United States of America, which was strong and known as the New Roman Empire, the Vietnam War lasted for seven or eight years, the domestic situation is a great change, the war on terror has been ten years, and the country has reached the time when it needs to change course, and the Great Song Dynasty is no exception.

In the Xuanhe period, it was already the eve of the contradictions accumulated in the previous decades about to erupt, if there was no strong foreign enemy, the Great Song Dynasty might still have room to slowly adjust and resolve, but it encountered the rise of the powerful Jurchen, and the Great Song Dynasty was in the weakest and most chaotic time, which finally led to the tragedy of the Jingkang period.

Cai Jing's words, in the hearts of Zhao Ji and Liang Shicheng, aroused different reactions, Liang Shicheng was silent, he couldn't see too many emotions coming out, Zhao Ji's heart moved, although he felt that Cai Jing's words were not a problem, this military matter does need to be cautious, but I slightly feel that it is a little alarmist, I think it is also Liang Shicheng who is targeting Cai Jing everywhere today, Cai Jing has to exaggerate his words, so as to go back to Liang Shicheng, now it seems that the effect is good, Liang Shicheng will not speak.

Zhao Ji smiled reluctantly: "What the Taishi said is naturally the words of Lao Cheng to seek the country, and I also think so...... Since the military has to be cautious, once something happens in the future, can the imperial court's financial plan support the turnover? "In the final analysis, Zhao Ji still cares about a word for money, and what is discussed today is also about money, in the end, although Cai Jing is beautiful, other things don't need to be paid out of the inner library, Cai Jing is presiding over and trying his best to perfunctory, once there is anything in the army, in the end, he Zhao Ji has to pay for it?

Now inquire clearly, once the time comes, in the name of military affairs, please send the inner library, how big is this Cai Jing's appetite, he is easy to get a little bit of money, but he can't lose it all, Cai Jing glanced at Zhao Ji's expression, and sighed secretly in his heart, what he did today is indeed rare and selfless, although he is the heart of power has not diminished at all, but he knows that he belongs to the scholar class after all, and the existing system of the Great Song Dynasty is both prosperous and lossy, even if there is any fighting, it is also within the scope of this system.

At a time when all this seems to be crumbling, he is still trying his best to maintain this old system, anyway, he doesn't have many years to live, as long as everything can be perfunctory during his lifetime, as for the afterlife, he doesn't have to worry about it, Zhao Ji He understands the bones, looking at such a demeanor, or caring about his own financial affairs, his own painstaking words, not much to take to heart, such a ridiculous and easy monarch, it is really difficult to expect him to have the power of Zhongxing.

But then again, if it weren't for such an emperor, how could he have decades of power in the world? The monarch is like this, he is perfunctory one day at a time, trying to maintain the power of the family before his death, without any loss, Cai Jing also has this self-satisfaction, he is in one day, as long as his mind is still clear, he can always barely maintain the overall situation without collapse.

He arched his hand again, and there was no trace of excitement in his words, and he resumed the tone of the old man who was not salty or light: "The financial plan of the DPRK and the central government, everything is just barely able to support, but there are side matters, it is really difficult to raise relevant expenditures, within two or three hundred thousand, maybe it can still be maneuvered, beyond this number, the third division is indeed powerless." Liang Shicheng was beside Zhao Ji, snorted softly, looking disdainful, but Zhao Ji didn't care much, he was just calculating in his heart, within two or three hundred thousand guan, this number is really equal to nothing, once there is a side matter, this cost is astronomical, at every turn is a few million guan, at least, the war against Yan, less than 200,000 troops spent for two years, it is more than 60 million, even if there is any side event in the future, it will not have the scale of the war against Yan, but the number that the three divisions can deal with now is disproportionately small, It is equivalent to clearly telling Zhao Ji that now the country's financial plans can no longer experience any war!

In the future, if life changes, don't you still have to count on the inner library? Counting on the inner treasury is tantamount to counting on Yang Ling's brilliant hands, although Cai Jing keeps opposing letting Yang Ling continue to master more financial affairs, and openly and secretly opposing Yang Ling to continue to fight against the forbidden army's financial affairs, but how can he get away from this Yang Ling now?

At this moment, Zhao Ji also regretted a little in his heart, the Shence Army and the Jinyang Army went out of the town, patronizing the restriction and weakening the army, now that I think about it, it would be better to be a little fairer, if the two armies give birth to something in the border area, I don't know how to deal with it at that time! With today's plan, I can only hope that the Holy Son of Heaven will have the help of a hundred spirits, and during this period of time, everything will be calm!

Zhao Ji's originally high mood was completely depressed at this time, in this cramped Yanfu Palace, he was not willing to delay for a moment, and laughed at the moment: "Taishi is careful, I already know very well, I should think about it again, even so, Taishi and settle it first, Liang Shicheng, you also retreat, go to Genyue first, prepare to watch things in the palace, I must rest for a while, from the void to wisdom, and then set the national plan." ”

Liang Shicheng and Cai Jing got up together to salute and receive the order, Zhao Ji waved his hand casually, and then retreated by himself, several small yellow doors surrounded him, and saw Zhao Ji's crimson robe flashing, and it had disappeared into the complex door, and Cai Jing and Liang Shicheng withdrew from the Yanfu Hall almost side by side.

Liang Shi Chengya didn't want to stay with Cai Jing for a while, so he was about to leave from another place surrounded by eunuchs, but Cai Jing stopped him: "Liang Gongguan, stop your steps for a while, there is a word, you should be in front of Liang Gongguan!" ”

Liang Shicheng snorted, since he and Cai Jing broke his face, after he captured him last time, except for discussing political affairs before the Son of Heaven drove, the two of them fell to the point where they bumped into each other and got up and left, Cai Jing stopped him and wanted to say something, it was really rare, he waved his hand, let the eunuchs around him retreat, and greeted Cai Jing, who was a head taller than himself, without smiling: "I don't know what the Taishi has to say?" ”

Cai Jing smiled calmly, seeing that the irrelevant people were far away, he said lightly: "I don't dare to see the teaching, but there are a few words, I have to make it clear with Liang Gongguan, Liang Gongguan and all the people who should have a heart are counting on Lord Yang to continue to attack the forbidden army's financial affairs, so that the forbidden army can give birth to something?" A sentence immediately made the corners of Liang Shicheng's mouth twitch, if it weren't for this hidden city government, it would not be bad, and he couldn't help but shout at that time, this old fox surnamed Cai has a poisonous eye!

Liang Shicheng and a person with a heart are indeed as Cai Jing said, counting on Yang Ling to continue to work on the financial affairs of the forbidden army, and finally provoke the forbidden army generals and related interest groups, and finally bring down Yang Ling, the thorn in the eye, these people who should have a heart are almost the backbone of the old party Qingliushi doctor group with the prince as the core, and others may not have the determination to go to Yang Ling, but for these people, Yang Ling is now faintly associated with Jiawang Zhao Kai, because of his actions, Let Jiawang Zhao Kai win the lottery again, and become beautiful again, he has become a life and death enemy in the political arena!

Liang Shicheng because of the great decline of his momentum, he also felt a little shaken in front of Zhao Ji, and he could only look for allies to consolidate himself, the parties in the DPRK and China, he could never be the same as Cai Jingtong, only to move closer to the prince and the old party Qingliushi doctor, plus the hatred for Yang Ling is general, naturally they came together, and now their strategy is to try to let Yang Ling give Zhao Ji the money he earned, and spend it at a fast speed, Zhao Ji can only expect more from Yang Ling, and finally make up his mind, Support Yang Ling's further attack on the financial affairs of the forbidden army!

During this period of time, Yang Ling Taoguang was obscure, honest, and kept a distance from the financial affairs of the forbidden army, and I don't know how many people secretly jumped to their feet, thinking that Yang Ling was too slippery to keep his hands, Yang Ling couldn't there, only Zhao Ji could use his strength here, today Liang Shicheng is contrary to the past, and he is full of praise for Yang Ling's ability to make money, to let Yang Ling grasp more financial power, it is best to fight against the three divisions, and I hope that Cai Jing can ask for more money in Zhao Ji's place, and I can't wait to even use the strength to eat milk, the reason is that it is all for this, If it was said that in the past, it was still an ordinary power struggle with Yang Ling, but now Yang Ling is faintly involved in the matter of seizing the heir, this has become a life-and-death battle, even if it provokes trouble in the Dumen Forbidden Army, it will not hesitate!

Liang Shicheng broke out in a cold sweat behind his back, but he sneered on his face: "Sage Neiku, a certain also has the responsibility of inspecting the school, Yang Ling, although a certain person has never been used to it, but he can respond to the heavenly family, and a certain can only be tolerated by Quyi, now the country's financial affairs are like this, even the saint is inevitably embarrassed, a certain expects this Yang Ling to give birth to more wealth, is the Taishi not used to it?" Anyway, for the sage, the family and the country are one, what is said today is from the public heart, but the Taishi speculates with this sinister intention, Liang is not sensitive, and he really dare not hear it! ”

As soon as he flicked the sleeves of his robe, he was about to stride away, but Cai Jing took a step forward, and his voice was extremely cold and hard: "Didn't Liang Gong Guan Shicai understand the old man's heartfelt words?" Now I am afraid that something will happen in this army, Liang Gongguan and a person with a heart, but they do the opposite! Even if it is the gate forbidden army, if something happens, this generation has soldiers and wealth, and it can no longer be suppressed, and the Great Song Dynasty, which controls the military with literature, will be completely reversed! If you want to ban the military generation, it is nothing more than the noise in the army, but this kind of means is not only hurtful to others, but also harmful to yourself! (To be continued.) )
