The wind was sharp, the west wind was blowing, and the snow was flying all over the sky, hitting the people's faces, and it was faintly painful.

A group of Song troops was advancing towards Xiangyang at the moment, and the snow on the road gradually began to melt, and some roads became muddy and inconvenient. And as the snow melted, the weather became colder and colder, even if he was wearing a fur coat and a stove in the car, Wang Boyan felt cold.

"The official family is really guilty. If you don't stay in Yangzhou, why do you have to go all the way to Xiangyang! ”

Wang Boyan looked outside the carriage, and a complicated color flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, the official family happened to be like a foot pawn, mixed in the army, marching on foot.

In the Great Song Dynasty, except for Emperor Taizu, they all emphasized literature and light martial arts, and they were all literate and talented, but they were not good at arching horses and leading troops to fight. Even some emperors, known as martial arts, attach importance to military drills, but the essence is still Ye Gong is a good dragon, and he seems to like it, but in fact, there are too many shows.

Emperor Taizong came to the wrong position, wanted to extinguish the Northern Han Dynasty, recover the sixteen states of Youyun, and prove that he was better than Emperor Taizu, but he was defeated in the Gaoliang River, was hit by an arrow in the thigh, and almost became a prisoner.

And Shenzong is a great talent, his own political talent, military talent is average, but he doesn't know how to accept advice with an open mind, he just trusts the scholar Wang Anshi, and demotes the ministers, and the country is in chaos, and the five roads are in the summer, and the result is a big defeat, except for the death of many people, nothing is gained.

In short, when it comes to martial affairs, the emperors of the Great Song Dynasty are often blind.

Today's bureaucracy is the exception.

This saint, before the Jin army threatened Bianliang, was just a gentleman; However, when the Jin army invaded the south, it showed an amazing side, first of all, he presented six victories and six defeats to Emperor Huizong, and then he was not afraid of life and death to envoy the Jin army; Later, he followed the seed division to go to Hedong, and the seed division was defeated and died, but the Song army led by the current official family was defeated by the Jin army.

Later, when he was proclaimed emperor, he often talked about military affairs with his courtiers, refuted Li Gang's ten proposals, and also refuted the surrender speech, the quick victory speech, and clarified the goal of resisting Jin. When talking about military affairs, he is always good at deduction and comparison, and his words are extremely convincing, and he often makes the ministers of the DPRK and the central government speechless.

And the eight-character army he personally formed was a rare strong army in the world, and it repeatedly defeated the Jin army.

This official seems to have been born to live for war, and seems to have been born to live for war, and in previous battles, he has shown an amazing talent for war, and he has the style of an ancient famous general. According to the palace, His Majesty has to get up every day to run, exercise his body, and constantly practice swords every day. In the battalion, he ate and wore the same food and clothing with the soldiers, without luxury, and won the trust of the soldiers.

In this parade, there was no superfluous guard of honor, no luxury, everything was simple, simple to some old ministers couldn't help but advise.

And this time on the tour of Yangzhou, the officials were sympathetic to the old ministers, so that some frail old ministers sat in the carriage and moved forward; But he himself did not ride in a carriage, but marched on foot, like a normal soldier.

The Ancient Masters are nothing more than that!

It's just that these excellent qualities are a bit inappropriate to put on an emperor!

As an emperor, he attaches too much importance to military affairs, and puts Wenchen aside, and in the long run, the power of the martial arts will inevitably expand.

Wang Boyan said in his heart: "You are a good general, but you are not a good emperor!" “

…………

At night, Zhao Pu was still reviewing the recitals.

Although it is said that with the presence of the cabinet, he is much more relaxed, and he only needs to do the judgment questions, and write "yes" or "no". However, there are still a lot of high movements, and even if you only read them once, it will take a lot of time. And this is already the cabinet minister, try to grasp the key points, try to pick some important pieces to send them, most of the unimportant ones have been intercepted, but there will be more.

When the last piece was reviewed, Zhao Pu finally breathed a sigh of relief, leaning back in his chair, full of enjoyment.

At this time, Wang Wuyue stepped forward and gently massaged it, soothing the pain on Zhao Pu's neck and shoulders.

"Yue'er, I'm there today!" Zhao Pu asked.

Wang Wuyue replied: "There are still fifty miles from the nearest county seat!" ”

"Now the Jin army has retreated, but in a few months, the Jin army will go south again. At that time, Yangzhou will directly face the Jin army's soldiers, and it will be the next Jingkang shame? You say, what should I do? Zhao Pu asked worriedly. Looking at the recital, the content is nothing more than the people are in dire straits, the officials want money, which place is the uprising of the displaced people, and so on.

In short, the content of the recital is all bad, all worrying, all troublesome, all troublesome, and nothing to celebrate.

Thinking about it again, the powerful Jin Army, Zhao Pu is even more worried.

It has been two years since I came to the Song Dynasty, the situation is still deteriorating, the situation is still not improving, the only thing I am fortunate to be the emperor is to be an emperor, to have soldiers, to have power, to have wealth, and to have a chance to resist fate. But with that, there were more troubles. And most importantly, the cumbersomeness of political affairs far exceeds that of the military; And those literati are also more scheming and better at intrigue than military generals.

And Zhao Pu's experience and political level, it is really difficult to settle this group of literati.

"Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry, take your time!" At this time, Wang Wuyue could only say this.

"The country is in turmoil, but it's a pity that I don't have a good prime minister! Wang Boyan is mediocre, and he is the limit of a state civil official, and as the prime minister, it is a great deficiency to lead the government; Zhao Ding's personality is too rigid, it is enough to be the imperial historian and in charge of the Taiwan, but it is too reluctant to be the prime minister; And Fan Zongyin is too sleek, lacks ideas, and is too selfish, which is not suitable. None of them are suitable prime ministers, causing chaos in the court, but it is easy to replace them, and it is difficult to find suitable replacement ministers! ”

Zhao Pu said bitterly, there is still not enough talent reserves, and the number of Wenchen he has made friends with is small. As a result, he did not know enough about those civil ministers, and did not dare to easily promote important positions, so as not to cause major turmoil. In short, when the Jin army is always going south, and the situation is precarious, stability is overwhelming.

At this moment, major surgery is performed in the court, this is looking for death!

"What about Li Gang?" Wang Wuyue asked.

"He's a loyal minister, but he's not a good prime minister!" Zhao Pu shook his head and said, "Li Gang is a loyal minister, but in dealing with the government, he is too righteous and angry, and he can't take the overall situation into account at all; In some political opinions, it is too romantic, and it seems to be beautiful, but in fact, it cannot stand scrutiny. He is not the prime minister's material, but a loyal minister, and he is hung in Fujian. After a long time, he was still summoned to return to the court. ”

"If you want to be a prime minister, if you want to be above one person and below ten thousand people, it is like roasting on a fire, without King Kong not being bad, at least you will be demoted, dismissed, exiled, and promoted; The most important thing is that the body is dead, and the stench will be left for 10,000 years. The former is Sima Guang and Wang Anshi, and the latter is Cai Jing! ”

PS: Writing has hit a bottleneck, so I'll change it today. Next, the pig's feet will be in the Xiangfan generation, in Hunan and Hubei, to carry out local changes.
