"The so-called mother country refers to our Central Plains court, and the so-called sub-state is a small state established outside the Central Plains by the remnants of various dynasties in the past. If you want to say that the general trend of the world is man-made. A gentleman, judge the situation and take advantage of the situation to build momentum. Buddhism also has the theory of cause and effect. At the beginning, Emperor Taizu wore a yellow robe and enjoyed the world, which is not the case. The yellow robe is added, and the position is borrowed. Treating the ministers of the Zhou royal family favorably is to build momentum. The sum of the two is called judging the situation. However, Emperor Taizu corrected his delusion, and the Great Song Dynasty was as weak as it is today. Today, the Great Song Dynasty is weak, and the call for law change is getting louder and louder both inside and outside the government. With the help of the Shang League, the Sheng Shang opened a merchant alliance counter, issued Jiaozi, and took out a large number of loans, which finally enabled the Great Song Dynasty to overcome the difficulties of the empty treasury. Today's treasury deficit operation of the Great Song Dynasty is also a kind of potential. This is exactly what the Holy One has created. For this, the imperative is man-made. Western Xia and Northern Liao can become a great disaster in the Great Song Dynasty, which is also a kind of potential. If the predecessors can build momentum, the saints can change the momentum. Bao Shou took a sip of tea and said slowly.

Zhao Xuan fell into deep thought, while Bao Shou stopped speaking, just looked at Zhao Xuan. This is to wait for Zhao Ji to digest what he said.

Song Taizu was just a petty official like a lieutenant in front of the palace, and he had no outstanding military exploits from beginning to end. He himself had no idea of seizing the world at all. Who knew that Chen Qiao mutinied, he was still in a drunken dream, the yellow robe had been draped on his body, and he had taken the world from the hands of orphans and widows, and the sun had not yet set and the country had been set.

This is unique in history. Some of those who have obtained the world before have finally obtained it due to the secession of one party, and some have risen up to seize it, using conquest and killing as a means, and some have usurped the throne or forced Zen concessions as a means. However, it is said that these people seized the world by their own strength, and only Song Taizu relied on the strength of others to get the world and establish the Great Song Dynasty.

Therefore, after Song Taizu ascended the throne as emperor, the only thing he was doing was how to ensure his throne. Since Shi Jingjiao took the sixteen states of Yanyun to the Khitan, it has become an unprecedented shame in the history of the country, and by the time of Zhou Shizong, this shame was about to be washed away. In the sixth year of Xiande, the three passes were victorious, and the Khitan was frightened. However, when he arrived at Song Taizu, he did not continue the northern expedition, but was busy with internal affairs and emasculated himself. By the time of Song Taizong, it had been almost castrated, and finally led to the failure of Song Taizong's Northern Expedition. From then on, Liao became arrogant and treated the Song people like slaves and livestock.

What Zhao Ji thought of was: Since Song Taizu was able to create such a system, creating a situation where the martial arts of the Great Song Dynasty were not good, and the Xia, Song and Liao Kingdoms were all together, then, why can't I, Zhao Ji, create another system today, and then break the situation that the general trend of Chinese unification has not yet arrived?

Thinking of this, Zhao Ji got up and arched his hand and said, "Bao Jiaoxi's words made me suddenly. If I want to build momentum, can I help me? ”

"May I share my sorrows for the sake of the Holy." Bao Shou knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Bao Jiaoxi, hurry up. Bao Jiaoxi has the talent to be a leader, and it is really useless to succumb to the position of teaching and training in the army. The reform of the law encountered setbacks, the DPRK and China were in turmoil, and the responsibility of the supervision department could not be shirked. I intend to replace the superintendent's book, but I can't choose anyone. Bao Jiaoxi has the legacy of his ancestor Bao Longtu Bao Qingtian, and he will be the governor of the department. The superintendent is not a military position, and this promotion must not violate military law. Zhao Xuan pulled up the scarf, thought for a moment, and decided to promote the scarf.

"Holy not. The government hall system stipulates that no one who has relatives can hold the office of the government hall together. The wife of the last general is the youngest daughter of the current prime minister Wen Yanbo. Bao Shou refused uneasily.

"Wen Yanbo is your father-in-law?" Zhao Ji was surprised. Zhao Ji didn't expect that the scholars and doctors were really about to become a family.

Bao Shou saw that Zhao Xuan was very surprised, and nodded yes. In fact, what he is doing today was planned by Wen Yanbo, Sima Guang and others a long time ago. No one in the DPRK and China could see Zhao Ji, but it was not impossible.

"I will rearrange the position of the government hall. You just go back to the camp and get ready. Zhao Ji thought for a moment and decided to use the wrapping ribbon.

"The last general commands." Bao Shou said with his hand, and then withdrew from the Chinese army barracks.

Originally, Zhao Ji was going to talk to Bao Shouye for a night, but now he is not in that mood. Zhao Ji stretched his waist and lowered his head and waved his pen on the imperial table.

After a while, Zhao Ji stood up. said to Li Xiang'an: "Let Liu Qi come to see me immediately." ”

"Holy Lord, the last general will come to listen to the order." Within a few minutes, Liu Qi came to the Chinese army camp.

"Summoning King Ming in the middle of the night is really a last resort. You now find a way to make the cabinet members of Qiongzhou and the top ten Xiao of Shu rush back to Bianjing before Chinese New Year's Eve as quickly as possible. Zhao Ji was polite first, and then ordered. Liu Qi is the leader of the Ming Sect and a martial arts master, and Zhao Ji believes that he has a way to accomplish this.

"The last general commands." Liu Qi gave up his hand and took the order away without any doubts. Liu Qi's character is like this, he demands absolute obedience from his subordinates. Now, under the command of Zhao Ji, he also has such a requirement for himself. No questions asked, no hesitation, just absolute obedience and completion of the task. Zhao Ji is also very happy about his style, and now what Zhao Ji lacks is this kind of resolute and decisive person.

In the next half month, Zhao Ji also acted resolutely. The first is to merge the Dragon Guard. 140,000 people, 50,000 old and weak soldiers were dismissed, a one-time salary for one year, and they were dismissed and returned to the fields. Zhao promised that after everyone returned home, each of them would receive 20 acres of arable land. Zhao Ji's soft and hard work, the soldiers all obeyed. The establishment of the Dragon Guard Army was further reduced, but its strength was strengthened. Of the remaining 90,000 men, the three corps did not appoint commanders, but existed independently as nine regiments, and no generals were appointed. The position of general is reserved for Zhao Ji's henchmen who are rushing to the top ten generals.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhao Wei still spent time in the barracks and did not return to the palace. Bianjing City was relaxed and nervous, and the ministers all speculated that Zhao Ji's reorganization of the Dragon Guard Army was likely to have a new move like the second year of Xining.

However, now the ministers are not afraid that Zhao Ji will cut off their heads again. The matter of the rebellion of the political hall and King Chang, Zhao Ji has downplayed it, what will happen? The sin is not to blame, as long as you don't treat yourself as a bird.

The four years of Xining have passed like this, and the five years of Xining have quietly arrived. The Spring Festival is held at the end of January, in February, when spring ploughing is being prepared. There is still a month to go.

And this month is also the busiest month for Zhao Ji, and it is also the busiest month for the top ten generals.

Top ten generals: Li Jirong, Gao Fei, Yang Jin, Guo Kai, Luo Hao, Sun Haoying, Wu Jianhao, Sun Wencheng, Niu Zaigao, Bao Huaishan. They were appointed by Zhao Ji as the commander of the top ten military towns of the Great Song Dynasty. What they have to do is to go to various places before the Spring Festival to control and complete the reorganization of various military towns.

Considering that the soldiers on the border of Western Xia were relatively strong because they fought tough battles with Western Xia all year round, Zhao Ji ordered Luo Hao to lead 10,000 fire cavalry from Lijia Horse Farm. The fire cavalry and the dragon guards were merged into the military towns of the border guards, and after the reorganization, the strength of each military town was still 30,000. What Zhao Ji wants to do is to completely control all armies in his own hands through reorganization and improve his combat effectiveness.

After some reorganization, the size of the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty was further reduced. There were: 10 military towns of the border guards, 300,000 people. Ten regiments and towns of the Joint Defense Army, 100,000 people. In addition to the 3,000 people in Lingya Prefecture, the Haiwei Army was still set up as eight regimental towns with 80,000 people. The Iron Guard, the Iron Arm Guard of 5,000 people, but still as an army. The fire cavalry is an additional establishment, and the 5,000 fire cavalry who returned from the expedition to Jiaozhi are stationed in the Li Family Racecourse. In addition, Zhao Ji wants to newly form a dragon guard army of 30,000 people in a month. The total strength of the army was 520,000.

In the newly formed Dragon Guard Army, Zhao Ji decided to send graduates from universities in various states for training. If the new law has been frustrated, it can be said that the education system, led by the four universities, has been implemented without resistance. After the new law merged states and counties, the Great Song Dynasty had 15 roads, more than 150 state capitals, and more than 800 counties. One hundred and fifty state capitals is one hundred and fifty universities. According to the four-university system, universities, middle schools, primary schools, and Mongolian schools each have a four-year system, enter school at the age of four, graduate at the age of 20, and provide free education, but after the age they are not allowed to go on to higher education, and each level has a number of regulations. A college graduate, who was exactly twenty years old at this time, was the best soldier.

To form the Dragon Guard, it is natural to go through the military department, and after Wang Shao received Zhao Ji's holy decree, he began to recruit them into the army. The military pay is very generous, while the length of military service is ten years. Under this condition, I am not afraid that graduates should not be recruited. Because of this education system, most of the graduates are the children of farmers, and they should not be recruited, and they cannot be admitted to the four universities, so they can only go home to farm. It's better to be a soldier than to farm.

In addition to controlling the army, Zhao Ji decided that most of the officials in each prefecture and county should also be replaced, at least half, and all important positions should be replaced, and the officials from the old imperial examination system should no longer be used. This will require the search for at least 50,000 new civil servants.

The 50,000 new civil servants were all recruited from the four universities. The four university branches on the fifteen roads of the Great Song Dynasty plus the four university offices in Bianjing make it sixteen four university offices. The number of participants is close to 200,000. Zhao Ji wants to use all of them, in addition to being civil servants, the main faculty members of the four universities must also be replaced, and no longer use the redundant officials who were originally abolished.

There is only one purpose for this overall blood change, and that is to implement an absolute dictatorship based on military control. Whoever supported him was appointed, and all those who opposed him were reduced to commoners, and all those who resisted were killed.

These things are easier said than done. For this reason, Zhao Ji summoned Wang Anshi alone. Wang Anshi said: "In this way, the world is shaken. If the old officials are not properly accommodated, they are dismissed, and the new officials are afraid that they will suffer the same fate in the future. ”

Zhao Ji sighed and said, "It has been four years since I ascended the throne. I don't live more than a hundred years. I can't wait. All new laws must be implemented as soon as possible and without reservation. Moreover, most of the officials under the old law did not have power and just enjoyed wealth and nobility. ”

The old law of the Great Song Dynasty used the method of separating jobs and different jobs, and dividing the power of many people in one position, but the new law is a clear profession and dereliction of duty must be investigated. The old officials have been enjoying peace for too long, and they want them to do things, and they don't know how long they will delay. And Zhao Ji didn't want to use a knife to force them to do it anymore.

After a busy month, the Spring Festival party was finally about to begin, and Zhao Ji returned to the palace to prepare for the last step - cleaning the court. The cleansing of the court is not to kill in vain, but to drive out all the old ministers who are only willing to enjoy peace and are unwilling to strive for change, and let them go home to retire.

Song Taizu established the country and relied on his official position to entrap them, and Zhao Ji wanted to seek change, so he could only use force to deter them. What is the use of a bunch of sick old politicians in the absence of force? Zhao Ji is not afraid that they will go to the sky. The barbarians such as the Jin State and the Mongols invaded and conquered them by force, and Zhao Ji could do the same.
