Chapter 1001 Connecting the Honors (I)

Judging from the situation, time is on Jiajing's side, Xue Niang is pregnant with a dragon fetus in her belly, the new army is being organized and trained, and the transformation of the three major battalions is also being carried out in an orderly manner. The officials who entered Jingquan also knew that they had to go to Yang Ji Teahouse to buy a sign in order to be promoted smoothly, and these people had to become the imperial party from then on. Logically speaking, it must be that the emperor postponed the battle with Shoufu as much as possible, and it was best to delay it for a few more years, after Yang Tinghe was old and weak, maybe he could achieve his goal without fighting.

From this point of view, it is more in the interests of Emperor Jiajing to avoid war now. But Yang Chengzu said: "Your Majesty, the matter of the ceremony is close to the opening of the Chinese law. The reason why we can resume the opening of the middle school relatively smoothly this time is because the opening of the middle law has not been implemented for a long time, and it has not yet become a habit in people's hearts. So, when we want to cancel it, the resistance is actually much smaller. If the Kaizhong Law was abolished from the beginning of Jianwen or Yongle, and now a hundred years have passed, people may regard the Folding Color Method as an ancestral law, but no one wants to open the Zhong. The same is true for the examination, a year earlier to let the first emperor enter the temple, it is a day earlier to form a routine. If we wait a few more years, when Yang Tinghe is old, there will be someone else as the first assistant. Maybe Shoufu can be replaced by our people, but the six Shangshu, the Kedao Yan Official, and the Jiuqing Official, we can't make everyone our people. They will feel that their name has been decided, and if they want to change it, they will become an outlier. ”

He paused for a moment and then said, "Besides, Your Majesty needs to show enough toughness to let those ministers know who is the lord of this court now. During the Hongwu Dynasty, none of the six cabinet departments was walking on thin ice, not daring to say a word or take one more step, but now the situation is completely reversed. There are also people in the court who talk that when a merchant pays taxes, he should be given authority, and the power and taxes are equally important, and the minister should share the world with the Son of Heaven. Some of these words were said in the court, and some were discussed in private. If you don't give them a little color, these remarks will not disappear on their own. ”

"I understand what Big Brother means, and I agree with Big Brother Idea, the only thing to consider is whether we are sure of victory. I reused Xu Jie, because I wanted to use the mind to fight Confucianism, and to use Wang Shouren's disciples to balance Yang Tinghe. But later, when I heard him talk to me about the unreasonable truth outside my heart, I was no longer interested in the study of the heart, or in other words, the study of the mind was more harmful to the court than Confucianism and science. Xu Jie's slander of the eldest brother may not be the meaning of the person in the mind, but there must be someone behind it. I understand a truth even more, no matter whether he believes in psychology or science or what, in the final analysis, he is a scholar after all, and he still has to think about his clan, for his interests, and for his fellow villagers in the same year. However, I don't have to learn whether I have enough people at hand. The strongest magic weapon of the cabinet is to resign, if hundreds of officials are threatened with resignation, do we have so many people in our hands that we can go up? ”

"Long live rest assured, in human hands, we definitely have it. Your Majesty is the Supreme of Ten Thousand Times, and when you give an order, why worry about not finding someone to work? Besides, in Nanjing, we also have some people, Fang Xianfu, Gui Cao, Zhang Fujing, and Huo Tao in the court. What we have to do now is actually to make things happen, let this battle begin, even if we can't win it for the time being, we can let them continue to fight until we win. Now in the imperial court, the loudest voices are those bigwigs, some middle and lower-level officials, either they don't speak, or we can't hear what they say. This time, we have to let those people below speak, these people have been suppressed for a long time, and they may not have no resentment against Yang Tinghe. As long as this grievance can be used by me, we will not be a minority in the court. The name of the first emperor's imperial examination has been hanging for too long, and it should be removed, and the queen mother must be very happy to be able to bring the name over. ”

Jiajing was silent for a long time, and finally clapped his hands violently, "For the sake of the queen mother's happiness, I have also let go, eldest brother, you go to contact Wuding Marquis Guo Xun and ask him to prepare the three major battalions." Once this matter becomes a big problem, maybe we will need to use soldiers, and I will use him and his people. ”

"Your Majesty rest assured, the minister will do it immediately, and ensure that nothing goes wrong."

At the school field on the outskirts of Beijing, the shouts of people and horses are higher and higher, flags are waving, and guns are rumbling. In the past six months, the Beijing division has established a cannon workshop, and a large number of arquebuses and imitation Franco machine guns have been manufactured and armed to the newly recruited soldiers in the three major battalions. Let this Jingying, which was originally full of twilight and can only be regarded as an empty shelf, rejuvenated.

At the beginning of the Renwu Change, the performance of the three battalions was very poor, and although some people were killed and some adjustments were made, the overall progress was not great. It was only after the new army of the fifth battalion was transferred to Beijing that the entire three battalions seemed to have changed, and finally they looked like the forbidden army guarding the Beijing division, and began to exercise, reorganize, and reorganize.

There are many households in the Jingshili, and there are many private property of the powerful and powerful in the nearby granges, and the movements of the people and horses are drilled, and I don't know whose mounts they have frightened, whose cattle they have frightened, or whose crops they have trampled on when they are walking in the queue, these are not the troubles that the generals of the Beijing camp can provoke or are willing to cause. As a matter of fact, in addition to the problems of the generals themselves, the influence of the objective environment is also an important factor in the sloppy discipline and negligent training in the Beijing camp over the past few years.

After Jiajing rectified the new army, he relocated the school yard to the Royal Grange and Yang Kee's Grange, and on the other hand, he also issued strict orders that the soldiers must be given the greatest convenience. In addition to not being complained about in practice, even the training soldiers' diet is also responsible for providing it to ensure that the soldiers eat and drink.

This is not to say that they will not disturb the people because they train here, after all, many of these soldiers are veterans left over from the three major battalions, and their discipline is not very good. At the beginning of the training, there were a lot of incidents. But even the sufferer did not speak, and the other disturbed people had no position to complain, and in the end they had no choice but to give up.

Law enforcement in the barracks was also unprecedentedly strict, and all those who violated discipline received military justice in accordance with the regulations.

Relying on this iron-blooded method, discipline was temporarily maintained, so that the people below did not dare to mess around, and the mental outlook of the new army gradually changed. Now those who have come to lead the troops are all outstanding generals in the new army of the fifth battalion, and after being promoted, they have come to serve as officers and be responsible for drills.

They have a real heart, and many of the old methods in the barracks are of little use to them. At the same time, there is also a background, some people are Anlu people, some people are carrying Yanling knives, and there are factory guards behind them.

Gradually, the military songs of the warriors of the Three Kingdoms have spread in the three major battalions, and the newly recruited soldiers and the original soldiers of the three battalions have been mixed and reorganized together, and they have been able to form a decent formation, raise their spears and form a formation, or rehearse how to match firearms and equipment, and how to deal with the enemy.

On the stage, Guo Xun, Marquis of Wuding, was wearing armor, wearing a robe, with a serious face, waving the command flag in his hand frequently, and the queue changed with his order flag. Where there is something that is not good enough, he only says a word, and immediately someone takes the whip and goes down to enforce military law.

In this solemn and solemn atmosphere, a fast horse rushed into the camp gate and went straight to Jiangtai. Before Guo Xun could attack, the person on the horse had already shouted, "Old Taishan, my son-in-law has come to see you." ”

Guo Xun's expression changed, and he suddenly handed over the Ling Qi to the deputy general beside him, lifted the hem of his robe, and walked quickly to the general, his heart was beating a little faster than usual, and he vaguely felt: This time, maybe it was his own creation.
