Chapter 127

Baili Wuji looked at Zheng Yanhua and said: "After you occupy it, the Khitan army will go south again, how to resist, let the people of the Jin Kingdom resist the door panel to resist the cavalry of the Liao?" Do you know how many troops will be needed to defend the huge territory of the Jin Kingdom? Where did these armies come from, recruiting civilians into the army? Do you know how much money it takes to raise these armies? ”

Zheng Yanhua was too immature, and he was suddenly asked a series of questions.

But another student from the War Law Department stood up and said loudly: "The student's name is Mao Shengzi's public enemy, and the Jinling clan, if the king needs it, the student is willing to donate his family wealth to support the north." ”

Baili Wuji was defenseless for a while, and was stunned when he heard this, and then asked, "Mao Sheng, are your parents still there?" Do you have a brother at home? ”

Mao Sheng replied: "The student's parents are still alive, but there are no brothers. ”

"Since your parents are still alive, according to the system, the family wealth does not have your share in speaking. However, I remember your name, and when the Chu State needs you to donate your wealth, I will be the first to find you, sit down. Baili Wuji signaled.

"Uh......." Mao Sheng obviously did not guard against this move and sat down in frustration.

There was a burst of laughter from the students present.

At this time, Zheng Yanhua came back to his senses and said: "The student is a student of the law of war, and he will join the army in the future, and the questions asked by the king are not within the student's learning, and the student only knows how to seize the fighter plane and achieve victory." ”

Baili Wuji nodded and said: "You are right, you only need to know how to fight, and you don't need to think about whether or not to fight and when to fight." I admire you, Zheng Yanhua, when you finished your studies. Qualified to go to any lieutenant in the army. ”

Becoming the first student to be praised by the king today, Zheng Yanhua was obviously a little flattered, and was under the envious gaze of the students around him. Sit down with a red face.

"All military students, the Jin State, and even the current Han State, are all buffer areas between the Khitan and the Chu State, if you occupy this land now, the Chu State will inevitably be a direct sword and soldier of the Khitan. The Liao State, which is several times the territory of the Chu State, has a century-old foundation. Which is the foundation of the Chu State comparable for several years? Going north to fight Liao, it's easy to say. The army penetrated deep into enemy land and could not get the support of the local people. The supply line of the army is very long, and the Khitan cavalry is good at guerrillas, how to ensure the safety of the supply line? ”

"The matter of the supply line mentioned by the king, the students thought it was not a difficult matter. The army marched north from its own state or state. Or the two roads go hand in hand, and every time they attack a city, they will stick to it, hoard grain and grass, and so on to encroach on the Liao land, and the students think that they will be able to level the Khitan. A student stood up without any rules and interrupted Baili Wuji's words.

Baili Wuji was furious and said, "Report your name and hometown." ”

"The student's name is Guo Ting, the word Xinchen, a native of Pengcheng, Xuzhou."

"If you act like this, the State of Chu and the State of Liao will definitely fight a decisive battle in a certain city. Or form a confrontation and become a war of attrition. The national strength of the two sides is not at the same level, so who is it beneficial to fight in such a war, and how can there be a method of warfare? Where have you learned all the tactics? Didn't your teacher teach you etiquette? Baili Wuji shouted and reprimanded.

Guo Tingwei lowered his head and muttered.

"However, although your tactics are conservative, they are not unsafe, and it is not a good way to do so when the two countries are equal in strength, or when the armament is superior. Guo Xinchen, after you finish your studies, you can also go to any lieutenant in the army. ”

Guo Tingwei was overjoyed in an instant, and hurriedly sat down after saluting.

"The student's name is Liao Rong character element, Ningdu people's name. Studying for the Department of Governance. I want to ask the king, why does he launch a campaign to clean up officials every time he occupies a place? ”

This question was too sharp, with some reproach for the bloody wrist of Baili Wuji, and in an instant, the venue was silent.

Baili Wuji didn't expect that the students of this academy would be so bold to ask such a question.

The atmosphere was awkward for a while.

Feng Dao still had his eyes closed, wondering if Lu Dao was asleep.

Baili Wuji didn't want to lose his job in front of thousands of students, and he didn't want to answer this tricky question.

"Liao Yuanyuan, after you become an official, you will naturally understand this problem."

"The students are reckless, but according to the rules of the king, the students will be appointed officials on the day they complete their studies, and they will become officials, so that they will be responsible for supervising officials in various places. I don't know the true meaning of the king's cleansing movement, how can he exercise the responsibility of supervising officials in various places for the king? The king has a word first, and any question can be asked, so please ask the king to answer the students to solve the students' confusion. ”

"Uh......."

Baili Wuji was asked, he had something to say first, and he could ask any question, but at this time, it was tantamount to digging a hole for himself.

After all, they are kings, but these students don't give face at all, and when they look back at Feng Dao, they still close their eyes and recuperate.

This old man is really not as powerful as Xu Shiming, and he is unscrupulous.

Looking at the students looking at him below, Baili Wuji couldn't help but feel a warmth in his heart.

These people are the future of the Chu State and the pillars of the future of the Chu State.

So, why not make it clear to them?

"Since ancient times, officials have been repeatedly prohibited from corrupting and perverting the law, even in prosperous times. Why? If you are greedy for 10,000 taels, you will be dismissed from office, and one person will be exchanged for the happiness of the whole family and the whole clan; Greedy for 100,000 two, kill the head, exchange a life for the whole family, the whole clan to enjoy food and clothing for several lifetimes, besides, once these corrupt officials and corrupt officials have an incident, they will flee to other places with their money, change their masters, and become officials again, or even higher officials. ”

Baili Wuji said slowly after consideration. Suddenly feeling wrong, he turned his head and found that Feng Dao was staring at him, and Baili Wuji had no choice but to smile apologetically at him.

"Whether it is the rule of law or the rule of man, the last executor is still the official, this is the problem, but it is also an unsolvable problem. Whenever the king goes to a place, he will launch a campaign to clean up officials, which is not the original intention, but just a means. This king did not have so much time to purify the heads of those corrupt officials with books and courtesy, righteousness and shame, so he had to cut off their heads with his sword. The number of these corrupt officials is far less than the number of people who suffer from their persecution, and the lesser of two evils, therefore, I want to launch a campaign to clean up officials. ”

"King, can the students think that if an official cheats, he can be killed?"

“……。 As the king has said, this is just a means, an expedient measure, if it is in a peaceful and prosperous era, it can naturally be slowly investigated and judged according to the law, but if it is in this year when the program often collapses, it will not lose a momentary plan. ”

"My lord, can the students think that the king's words are regulations, and the king's mind is the law?" Another student asked, standing up.

Baili Wuji was furious: "Who are you?" ”

"The student's name is Zhang Xun, the word Kairen, a native of Luzhou, and a student of Ming Law."

Baili Wuji regretted it, regretted agreeing to Feng Dao to come to the school, but he didn't know that the students of this school were so difficult.

"This king is not a law, and this king must obey the law, so are you satisfied?" Baili Wuji replied with a strong spirit. (To be continued......)
