Chapter 339: Autumn Comes and Spring Goes Early (Part II)

- Chen Ke's bitter plan finally worked, and after a delay of two months, the ministers of the two governments decided in the political hall that Zeng Gongliang's "Petition for the Reform of the Martial Arts of the Officials". Chen Ke, as its initiator and judge of the Royal Martial Arts Academy, was also notified to attend.

The contents of the notebook had been copied and distributed to the ministers, but at the beginning of the meeting, a priest read it first.

Several ministers listened with solemn faces, and when you cultivate to their part, you can't guess their true thoughts from their expressions, words and deeds. If you still use that method of observing words and feelings, you will be sure to be sold and help count the money.

It is Chen Ke who also looks at the nose and the nose and the heart, and learns from the ministers to cultivate the kung fu of cultivating nature.

It wasn't until the person finished reading that the rich minister said slowly: "Prime minister, what else do you have to add?" ”

Zeng Gongliang nodded and said in a deep voice: "The ancients were born as teachers and learned from learning. The general's responsibility, the people's life is the division, the long to raise its materials, and to be safe? It was the official family that three years ago, the martial arts school was reinstated in the Wucheng Wang Temple, and now three years have passed, but the situation of the Royal Martial Arts Academy is precarious. The imperial court needs to come up with a way to reverse the declining trend, and hope that the princes will focus on the overall situation, make decisions as soon as possible, and train qualified generals for the imperial court as soon as possible, so as to enhance the military strength of our Great Song Dynasty! After a pause, he said, "This is also what the official family means." ”

Zeng Gongliang pulled the tiger skin to make a big banner, but the princes were not moved, because in the Great Song Dynasty there was a special sealing division, if you think that the emperor's will is inappropriate, you can return it and ask the emperor to make a new decree. Therefore, the emperor's will is not a golden rule, if the ministers feel that it is inappropriate, then Zhao Zhen's will will be null and void.

"What do you think?" After Zeng Gongliang finished speaking, Fu Bi said to the public: "What do you think? ”

Everyone looked at each other, and Wang Gongchen, the governor of the government, said: "I remember that twenty years ago, Fan Wenzhenggong ran a martial arts school. But it only existed for ninety-three days. ”

"Not bad." Everyone nodded yes.

"Why couldn't it go on at that time?"

"Enrollment is too poor. Fan Gong was worried that the enemy would think that my Great Song people did not like to practice martial arts, so they would despise him. Another governor, Sun Bian, said: "So." Only then did the martial arts school be closed, and it was changed to a method of self-study funded by local governors to cultivate talents for the country. ”

"Visible. It's not the first time that martial arts can't be opened. Wang Gongchen said in a deep voice: "This shows that the Martial Academy itself is a mistake, and it is not advisable to cultivate generals in this way." ”

Chen Ke has seen shamelessness, but he has never seen such shamelessness, this Wang Gongchen is too shameless, it is really shameless to use cause and effect, and it can be seen that it is necessary to introduce logic to the Great Song Dynasty......

"The fact that the Martial Arts Academy can't be opened is not because of its own fault," Zeng Gongliang said unhappily: "It's because there is too much prejudice and hostility!" ”

"I'm not hostile." Wang Gongchen also lowered his face and said: "I just think that the experience of official learning is not suitable for martial arts." All of you are familiar with history books, and dare to ask which of the famous generals of the ancients came from martial arts? The world of the Han and Tang Dynasties. Even if there is no martial arts. It can also train countless excellent generals and build a strong army in the world! ”

"You can't learn the skills to lead soldiers in war. In martial arts, you can only cultivate waste on paper! After a pause, Wang Gongchen said righteously: "The officers of the Great Song Dynasty should also be cultivated in the barracks and grow up on the battlefield, instead of sitting in the academy like a scholar!" ”

Wang Gongchen's rebuttal is very representative, representing the various disdains of the officials of the Great Song Dynasty towards martial arts.

Zeng Gongliang was so angry that his beard straightened and said: "It has been a hundred years since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, what elite soldiers and strong generals can be cultivated with your methods?" ”

"Admittedly, no, but it is caused by various reasons," Wang Gongchen has been in the cardinal for a long time, all kinds of prevarication, and he is extremely skillful in his use: "Do you need me to expand them one by one?" ”

"I'm just going to ask you three questions." Zeng Gongliang can be a privy envoy, and it is not a blind cat that meets a dead mouse, he took a deep breath and no longer followed the other party's train of thought: "First, officers who lead troops to fight do not need to learn Taoluo martial arts. Second, do they need to cultivate their loyalty to the Great Song Dynasty and the official family? Third, is martial arts the best way to solve the problem of one and two? ”

"This ......" Wang Gongchen wanted to change the topic.

"You just have to answer me, yes or no." was firmly held down by Zeng Gongliang.

"It's not." Wang Gongchen's heart was horizontal and said.

"So, what's better?" Zeng Gongliang stared at him tightly and said.

"This, I didn't expect it for the time being......" Wang Gongchen fell into Zeng Gongliang's trap.

"Hahaha......" Zeng Gongliang laughed: "Everyone, this is the so-called opposition for the sake of opposition!" ”

Everyone couldn't help laughing, and Wang Gongchen's face turned red.

"Don't get excited," Fu Bi hurriedly said, "Let's listen to what others say first." ”

"There is no doubt about the significance of martial arts, otherwise three years ago, the imperial court would not have approved the re-establishment of the martial arts academy, and it would have been named 'royal'." Sun Bian made his stance clear: "Appropriate reforms are also necessary, but the Prime Minister's proposal is a little radical, right? ”

In this way, the two governors expressed their opposition, and the two prime ministers should not express their stance too early, and the two privy envoys actually have opinions, but the east and west have never been harmonious, and they will never demolish the prime minister and let the government hall see a joke.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Why Zeng Gongliang's proposal is so controversial, even Fu Xianggong is not very satisfied. Guy is too involved:

He proposed that from now on, anyone who wanted to participate in martial arts must first study in the Royal Martial Arts Academy, and the duration of study was three years, divided into commuting and commuting. The graduation examination of the martial arts academy is a preparatory examination for martial arts, and if you cannot graduate from the martial arts academy, you are not eligible to participate in the martial arts.

It was also proposed that the status of the martial arts should be improved, and the imperial court should select and employ people, with priority given to those who have passed the martial arts. It should even be stipulated that if you want to obtain a martial rank above the seventh rank, you must have the qualifications of a martial artist.

For those military attachΓ©s who have been promoted due to merit and ability, they also need to study at the martial arts academy first, and after graduation, they can participate in the martial arts examination, and only after passing the examination can they be awarded the seventh rank or above.

This means that once his bill is passed, the martial arts, martial arts, and generals of the Great Song Dynasty will be closely linked. The status of the Royal Martial Arts Academy will be greatly enhanced, and a terrifying group of martial arts generals will loom over. In time, it is not impossible to contend with civilian officials......

However, in this way, it seems that it can deal a heavy blow to those nobles and change the phenomenon that the army is the forbidden part of the hairpin family.

When I think of this year's vacancy check, all kinds of corruption in the army are unbearable, and they all reveal the scene of the end times. If those generals are allowed to do nonsense, what will the Great Song Dynasty do to resist the invasion of foreign races? Everyone will be reduced to slavery!

Fu Xianggong and others certainly know that relying solely on campaign-style anti-corruption will not help. After the rumors are over, there will be a resurgence or even a worsening of the situation. Only by putting an end to the situation of controlling the army can we fundamentally change the atmosphere of the army.

Supporting the reform of martial arts would pose a threat to the civilian clique and even bring danger to the Great Song Dynasty. But if you don't support it, the army will be rotten, the country will be weak, and if there is a foreign war, the original state will be exposed, and the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species is not alarmist.

The dilemma is in front of the ministers......

"Let's listen to what Zhong Fang has to say." After some weighing, the balance in Fu Bi's heart began to tilt quietly.

"Yes." Chen Ke stood up, first saluted the ministers, and then said loudly: "The following officials are foolish, all corruption and dereliction of duty in the world are due to poor control!" Poor control includes three aspects: difficulty in delegating power, inadequate supervision, and untimely feedback. It is precisely these three reasons that led to the good resolution of the prime ministers, and it will be out of shape below. Because the people below know that it is difficult for the ministers to help them, they are unscrupulous. As a result, they reaped all the benefits, but they caused the ministers to bear the infamy! ”

Chen Ke's words, to the ears of ordinary people, seem to have nothing to say, but the prime ministers' eyes lit up, as if they had grasped something that could explain the problems that had plagued them for a long time.

"And the establishment of the Martial Arts Academy is definitely beneficial to the imperial court's control of the army!" Chen Ke said in a deep voice: "Needless to say, the previous appointment of officers by the imperial court was all recommended by generals and nobles. Such a person will not be grateful to the court when he is appointed, but only recognize his benefactor, thinking that his promotion is tied to the benefactor's body, and will naturally put the benefactor before the court. ”

"The public weapons of the imperial court are all used by the generals and nobles to cultivate private individuals and buy people's hearts. In the long run, the imperial court's control over the army naturally declined to the extreme, and all kinds of evils arose! After a pause, Chen Ke continued: "If you want to change this situation, you must reverse the concept of the generals and let them know that their official position is given by the imperial court, and their food and clothing are the people's fat and people's ointment!" Their benefactor is only one official! They must obey the orders of the Emperor and the Imperial Court! ”

"And the best way to reverse the concept of military generals is to let them get out of their original environment and receive a long-term education." I have to admit that Chen Ke knows how to persuade others, because he always starts from what the other party is interested in: "In addition to the military books, I also have to teach them the books of "The Book of Filial Piety", "Analects", "Mencius", and "Zuo's Biography", so that they can know what loyalty and righteousness are!" ”

"In time, these loyal and patriotic officers occupy half of the army, even if it is only a small half, the situation will be completely reversed." Chen Ke tried his best to paint a wonderful prospect and said: "When the time comes, all the troops, inside and outside, will be placed under the supervision of patriotic officers, and see which one dares to disobey the yang and the yin and harm the public and private interests!" ”

In order to reincarnate the Martial Arts Academy, Chen Ke threw away the festival cleanly......

But the effect is pretty good......
