Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Wei Renpu's words greatly touched many people present, not only civil officials such as Zheng Weilu Jialing, but also military generals such as Yang Dingguo and Murong Chunhua.
The core of Tiance Datang is the Anxi Tang Army, and the core personnel composition of the Anxi Tang Army is the descendants of the four towns of Anxi in the past, and why are the descendants of the four towns of Anxi isolated in the Western Regions?
In the final analysis, isn't it because of the Anshi Rebellion? Even if the battle of Talas was unfortunately defeated by the hands of heaven, if it wasn't for the explosion of the Anshi Rebellion, which made the troops of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate come to the east, once the Tang Dynasty plans a counterattack again, who knows who will kill the deer!
Starting from the first generation of Guo Yang Lu Zheng, all the descendants of the four surnames have hated the Anshi Rebellion.
"If it weren't for that chaos, how could my Datang be in decline? If the Tang Dynasty does not decline, how can the Western Regions fall into the hands of Hu Lu, and if the Western Regions does not fall into the hands of Hu Lu, how can the descendants of China in Central Asia be in the hands of foreign races? β
The nostalgia for the Tang Dynasty and the hatred of the Anshi Rebellion are complementary to each other, but the four towns of Anxi are all martial artists, even if the new Broken Leaf City still retains the forging skills of the Tang knife, even if the Guo family still retains the "Fenyang Military Codex" left by Guo Ziyi, but these also belong to the military culture, in the field of politics, the wise people in the four towns think most about how to recover the Western Regions, when Zhang Mai proposed to revive the Tang Dynasty, there were already some more than they expected- This is also one of the reasons why Zhang Mai was able to have an unshakable position in the four towns of Anxi as an outsider, because he brought a bright goal for the men of the four towns to fight for to the death!
As for the discussion of "why did the Anshi Rebellion occur"? Yang Dingguo, Murong Chunhua and others did not consider such an in-depth level at all.
Yes, I just hated the Anshi Rebellion before, but why did the Anshi Rebellion come about? How to prevent the recurrence of the Anshi Rebellion? Isn't that a more important question?
"Perhaps, the warriors should indeed reflect and self-control."

When Zhang Mai sighed with emotion: "A prosperous era of brilliant articles that is about to begin!" At that time, even Guo Wei thought that Zhang Mai was moved, and Cao Yuanzhong was almost about to say something.
But Guo Wei has already stood up. Now that Yang Yi is not there, Xue Fu is not there, in the Tang Army, the only person who has considerable political wisdom is himself, and he must stand up, and he can't let the marshal be moved by these scribes like this!
"Marshal. Shengshi, can't just Chongwen! Guo Wei said: "The so-called prosperity must be rich inside and strong outside!" β
Guo Wei's words attracted everyone's attention.
"My Tiance Datang now has a land of 10,000 miles, and if it annexes the Khitan and the Central Plains in the future, the territory will naturally be more vast, and it should not be under the Han and Tang Dynasties. The anointed land of the Central Plains is the root of my Han family, not to mention it. Let's just say that in the northwest frontier, the people of that place are all mongrels, if they can't be effectively suppressed, I don't know when new Xiongnu, Turkic, and Khitan will emerge! In order to effectively suppress the country, the country must be strong, and the strength of the country lies fundamentally in the deterrence of the army, if there is no deterrence of the army. Then the four sides are uneasy, and the foreign race is insulting. When the time comes, where will the comprehensive revival of China come? Strong but not rich, it is called poor soldiers, not strong and rich, it is called a fat pig to be slaughtered! β
Zhang Mai was awakened by Guo Wei's words! was pulled back to reality by Guo Wei from the historical memory of the fall of the Great Song Dynasty, and looked at Guo Wei in more surprise than when he looked at Wei Renpu!
If it is said, Wei Renpu's words just now only caused Zhang Mai's exclamation. and then appreciate his talent, but after all, Wei Renpu lived in an era that was made at the end of the fifth dynasty, and it is not surprising that his thinking can be opened up to the Chongwen trend of the Song Dynasty, and it can even be said to be logical.
But Guo Wei's words are not!
"Strong but not rich, it is called poor soldiers. Not strong but rich, it is called a fat pig to be slaughtered! β
It is not surprising that such deafening words appeared after the death of the Song Dynasty, and it is not strange that they appeared in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, when "the Han people are civilized and weak" has become a "consensus"!
But Guo Wei's words, when the afterglow of the Han and Tang dynasties still existed and the weak Song Dynasty had not yet taken shape, Zhang Mai could not help but be extremely surprised.
Before the Song Dynasty, the Chinese nation had never given birth to the concept of "Han is not as good as Hu" on the battlefield!
Even if it is a five-hundred As soon as Ran Min ordered to kill Hu, the men of the Han family were furious, and the Hu people in the Central Plains would either die or flee! But after the Song Dynasty, the combat effectiveness of the Han family was not as good as a crab, even if there was a cheer in the early Ming Dynasty, but it could not reverse the decline of the entire martial atmosphere, and in the end, it finally ended up with a "gallop to the north of the horse to be arrogant, singing to the south wind to die"!
Zhang Mai is from later generations, and it is not strange to know this, but to be able to foresee this in this era, can Guo Wei also cross over!
How fortunate I am that there is such a talent under my hands!

"Marshal!" Wei Renpu said: "Your Majesty's meaning is not that you don't want the army, but we must ensure that the army can be controlled. As for the four yi, after we incorporate Mobei, we should take education as the top, and turn Yidi into Huaxia - this is the best policy; Use stratagem to divide their tribes and use razing to defeat them, which is the middle strategy; As for relying on force to attack and defend against Hu, it is the next policy -- you need to know that the sword and stick can kill people's heads, but they can't win people's hearts. β
Guo Wei laughed: "Master Wei, how many Hu people have you come into contact with?" Don't take the book for granted! Those Hu people are afraid of power and have no threats with swords and sticks, and if you want to use the teachings of the saints to make them obedient, it is tantamount to a fool's dream! Even if you want to use strategy, but all strategy must be based on strength, without strength, every plot will become a joke, such as driving the tiger and devouring the wolf, but also have the strength to make the tiger obedient and obedient! Otherwise, you won't be able to drive the tiger, but you will be harmed by the tiger! Therefore, the national army must ensure that the combat power is strong! β
Wei Renpu said: "However, how does General Guo think that we can ensure that the national army is strong? β
Guo Wei paused and said: "The combat power of the army is indispensable in the strategy and courage of the generals, and the courage and skill of the soldiers!" A strong army produces strong generals, and vice versa, strong generals have no soldiers under them - but to select strong generals from a strong army, the selection system is the most important; And in order to let the strong general bring out the strong army, it is also necessary to give him the corresponding authority and time, and he cannot wait until the time of the battle to suddenly throw out a weak brigade without giving him time for training. Without the power of reward and punishment, even if Sun Wu is reborn at that time, it will be difficult to have the power to return to heaven! β
Wei Renpu asked, "How can a general be resourceful and courageous?" β
"Strategy and courage are all about tempering." Guo Wei said: "If a general wants to be able to strategize, he must be tempered in actual confrontation and struggle, and after being on the frontier for a long time, he will naturally be familiar with the border situation and go deep into the enemy for a long time. Naturally know the enemy's situation, this is the real knowing oneself and knowing the enemy, you can't read a few books of Sun Tzu's Art of War and Wu Zi's Art of War and think you can be a military advisor; If you want to be resolute, you must fight from the battlefield, regard the life and death of the war as an idle matter, and be naturally calm when the situation comes, and the generals will be calm, so that the soldiers can be convinced, and this army can fight. β
He glanced at Fan Zhen Wei Renpu. He also said: "Since ancient times, Wenchen was afraid of arrows, afraid of war, panicked, panicked, chaotic, chaotic, even if he had the wisdom of Zhuge at that time, what was the use?" And if the generals themselves are flustered, how can they convince the soldiers to follow? Of course, Ruoban and Zhang Xutuo's generation. It's not uncommon in ancient times, but it's a kind of general hidden in the reader. Such geniuses exist, but they are rare, and cannot be used as the norm for the state to govern the army. Most of the useful generals still have to be picked out from the military and killed on the battlefield. When iron is sharpened for a long time, it naturally becomes a front, and many people kill. Naturally! β
Wei Renpu asked: "General Guo thinks that he will go out of the army, so how can he ensure that the soldiers are brave and good at fighting?" β
Guo Wei said: "The marshal told the story of an oil seller who poured oil and wore copper coins, and he had no special talent, but he just poured oil day after day, and finally he was naturally able to make the oil pass through the copper coin holes - this is called 'I have no other.'" Familiar'! Soldiers must be good at fighting, and there is no other way but to fight! β
Wei Renpu said: "General Guo is now a famous general in the world, and what he said about the military is reasonable, but may I ask, if the world is unified, when there is no war, how can the soldiers always fight?" β
Guo Wei said hesitantly: "It is easy to unify the Central Plains, but it is difficult to have no people to fight in the world." Although I don't read much history books, I also know that there were Xiongnu before the Han Dynasty and Qiang after the Han Dynasty, there were Turks before the Great Sui and Goguryeo after the Great Sui, the Turks in the north of the Tang Dynasty, Goguryeo in the northeast, Tubo in the west, and Nanzhao in the south - in the heyday of the Han and Tang dynasties, there were rare times when there were no wars. Isn't it too early to talk about the unwarable people in the world? β
Wei Renpu said: "Even if the unwarlike clans in the world are out of reach, once the Central Plains are unified and Wu Shu is attached, then these warlike clans must be on the frontier, right?" β
Guo Wei said: "Not bad. β
Wei Renpu said again: "Then the soldiers of the frontier will definitely be good at fighting every day, right?" β
Guo Wei said: "Not bad. β
Wei Renpu said: "At that time, the principle of China was in peace, and the peace was maintained for a long time, even if it was trained every day, with General Guo's reasoning just now, if you can't fight often, can you still maintain strong combat power?" β
Guo Wei's expression suddenly darkened a little, he was already full of confidence when he talked eloquently just now, but when he said this, he vaguely knew what Wei Renpu was going to say next, but that was a problem that he couldn't solve.
As he expected, Wei Renpu really asked: "Then General Guo thinks that at that time, how will the combat power of the central army compare to the combat power of the frontier army?" β
Guo Wei was speechless for a while, and Wei Renpu said: "At that time, it was a strong outsider!" The central army, weak and unable to fight, the frontier army, the strong bully the Son of Heaven! He raised his voice sharply and said sharply: "Dong Zhuo of the Han Dynasty and An Shi of the Tang Dynasty, aren't they all disasters coming out from here!" β
Wei Renpu turned to Zhang Mai, saluted again, and said: "Marshal, your subordinates are not ignorant of the importance of maintaining the combat strength of the frontier, but more importantly, it is not to make this combat strength a disaster, and to eliminate this disaster, it is necessary to ensure that this army is controlled by reliable people. Otherwise, it will be like Tai'a holding it upside down, and the stronger the army's combat power, the more dramatic the disaster! β
Guo Wei asked rhetorically: "Then what kind of talent does Master Wei think is reliable?" β
Wei Renpu: "The tiger, fox and wolf bΓ¨i, the sinister and cunning people, are not available - the reason why this Dong Zhuo is chaotic is the Han and An Shi is chaotic!" Only a humble gentleman who is loyal, filial, benevolent and righteous is in charge of the army, which is the blessing of the country and the way to long-term peace and stability in the world. β
"Gentleman?" Guo Wei sneered: "If the humble gentleman can destroy the Khitan and Shatuo, he should ask Master Fan to take charge of the army in Mobei, and ask Master Wei to lead the army to Luoyang!" And there is no need for Yang Yingyang to drag the sick body north to fight for his life! β
"I'm not talking about the present, I'm talking about the future." Wei Renpu said: "What General Guo is talking about today is only an expedient way in wartime, but what Wei Renpu thinks about is the way of peace through the ages. General Guo is so persistent, could it be that after the world is peaceful, he is still unwilling to hand over the military power? β
The words will come out. Even Guo Wei was silent, not daring to say any more. There are some people who are taboo, even Guo Wei does not dare to be cautious.
Wei Renpu said: "You must know that soldiers are murder weapons, and saints have to use them as a last resort. Now the Khitan is where the righteousness lies, and the prisoners are peaceful. Then the general will disarm, and then more of the pastoral house, by the title of the prince of the prince, happy and rich, leisurely travel under the forest, in their own days of life, in the family Zeze and descendants, in the world is a total of peace! In the monarch's father, there is no rebellion, and in the subordinates, there is a blessing in a good death. The monarch and the minister get along, so that the matter of Han Xin in the early Han Dynasty and the Marquis Junji in the early Tang Dynasty does not reappear in this dynasty, isn't it a great story for the ages! β
Saying that, Wei Renpu said to Yang Dingguo: "Does Yang Guo think so?" β
Zhang Mai listened, and the words "a glass of wine releases military power" naturally appeared in his heart, but all high-ranking generals are most afraid of shocking the master. The picture described by Wei Renpu is for the generals who have no ambitions to be called emperors. It's the best place to be!
But seeing Yang Dingguo leisurely for a long time, looking at Zhang Mai, in the case of Zhang Mai did not express his position, the old man sighed: "Relieve the armor and return to the field, leisurely travel under the forest, it is our wish!" What Master Wei said. Big reason! β
Wei Renpu is worthy of being the leader of the outstanding wise men of the Central Plains, and at this point, even Yang Dingguo's mental defense has been broken.
Zhang Mai's face was like a well water, Wei Renpu asked Murong Chunhua and the others again, and Murong Chunhua and Ma Jirong glanced at each other. said in unison: "As long as we can see the fall of the Khitan and the unification of the world, what more can I ask for?" β
Seeing this, Cao Yuanzhong also sighed: "If the world is unified, I will be happy to be an idle minister." β
Guo Wei looked at the warriors who should have been on the same side as him, and in an instant, it was like a mountain collapsing wall, but he couldn't stop it, and he couldn't stop it. He disagreed with Wei Renpu's words, but he couldn't refute them.
Wei Renpu and Fan Zhen also glanced at each other, knelt down together, and Fan Zhen said: "Yang Guo Lao Cheng is a virtuous minister, General Murong General Ma is a good general, and General Cao is also a loyal minister!" Wei Renpu said: "There are such loyal ministers and good generals, and the ministers congratulate the marshal, the world, and the people!" β
ββββββββββ
Zhang Mai turned to Zheng Wei and said, "What do you think?" β
Zheng Wei said: "Dao Ji's thoughts on this matter have communicated with me several times, and I also agree. Advocating literature and Confucianism, this imperial examination can be used as a starting point to announce to the world the ambition of the new dynasty. On the Mobei side, the separation of military and political affairs can also be implemented gradually. You can send a civil servant as the supervisor of the army, and you don't need to interfere too much in the early stage, but you must slowly establish the system, and when the big battle is almost fought, the handover work will be almost carried out. In fact, if we do this, I believe that Yang Yi and them will not only not be disgusted, but will also be relieved and relieved because they have decided where to go in the future. β
Zhang Mai said: "Some of Wei Renpu's construction is indeed very reasonable, and some of the contents can indeed be implemented. To do the imperial examination, the culture must also be admired. β
Wei Renpu was overjoyed when he heard this, and then listened to Zhang Mai say: "And I believe that if Wenchen is allowed to lead the troops instead of the military generals, it will indeed be able to stabilize the situation for a period of time, eliminate the scourge of warlord secession, and ensure that the frontier will not rebel." β
Guo Wei sighed secretly, but he didn't know how to persuade him, under some kind of unspeakable constraint, he couldn't argue with Wei Renpu.
Wei Renpu was overjoyed, knelt on the ground with Fan Zhen and the others, and said in unison: "Marshal Shengming!" β
"Am I?" Zhang Mai smiled: "I listen to this well!" But ......" he smiled constantly, but the words changed sharply, and said: "I will worship literature, but I will not suppress martial arts, not only will I suppress martial arts, but I will also be martial arts!" I want to restore the martial spirit of China to the Han and Tang Dynasties, and even the Mai Han and Tang Dynasties, to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the kind of Cheng dΓΉ who has a flamboyant, masculine, and heroic personality! β
Fan Zhen and Wei Renpu were stunned, and they all thought that they had heard it wrong for a while.
I also heard Zhang Mai say: "The internal affairs of the country, I will discuss with you to govern, as for the army, I will definitely not hand it over to you civil ministers!" The wind of advocating literature and suppressing martial arts, and the system of controlling martial arts with literature, as long as I am alive for a day, I will not let it live! Even if I die, as long as my heir still recognizes me as an ancestor, he will not let it live! Whoever dares to shake it betrays me! Whoever dares to shake it is treason! Whoever dares to shake it, I will allow the people of the world to crusade against him! I want to legislate, I want to customize, I want to write books, I want to set the foundation of the country -- let the spirit of martial arts penetrate into the blood of this nation and go straight into the marrow of this country! Until the future that my eyes can't see! β
His tone was still calm, but the change in meaning was so drastic that Wei Renpu was almost unacceptable for a while, and he even asked with some loss of courtesy: "Why!" Marshal, why! β
"Why ......" Zhang Mai said as if sighing: "Because Wenchen, your name is weak!" β
Wei Renpu Fan was trembling for a while, and was speechless for a while......
We are weakling...... What a reason for this!
Guo Wei's eyes lit up because of Zhang Mai's words!
That's right, that's what he wanted to say, but couldn't say, or couldn't say it from his standpoint, but Zhang Mai said it! After hearing this sentence, Guo Wei was completely relieved, and he was the only one in the big tent who understood Zhang Mai's meaning first!

Well, the update is relatively late, but I am comfortable asking for a monthly pass, because there is still a chapter later. (To be continued......)
