Qin Hui was overjoyed at first, but when Zhao Huan said this, he felt like a thorn in his back, and under the surprise of surprise, he actually sweated and sweated heavy clothes.

After the palace maid withdrew, the housekeeper who was already on duty came to wait. The emperor summoned the prime minister, and he always did not think it was strange. The two of them gossiped a few words, and the housekeeper also kept remembering, thinking that future generations would set an example.

Zhao Huan laughed with Qin Hui for a few words, and saw that his face, eyebrows and eyes were full of smoke and dust, although he knew what kind of person this person was, in the end, he praised a few words.

After a few words, Qin Hui's face turned around, but Zhao Huan smiled and said, "Let's talk about it, what happened to the Qing army this time?" ”

Qin Hui perked up, raised his eyebrows, and said loudly to Zhao Huan: "The ministers of the Qing army, from the forbidden army to the Xiang army, more than 13,000 people, repelled those who do not need it, 6,100 people, Shaanxi Sixth Road, a total of 20,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people who are unable to serve as soldiers. ”

"Okay."

Zhao Huan is also a joy, the Qing army of the Song Dynasty also has a system, it was effective in the early years, and now no one is willing to do this offending deed, this time the Qing army is so effective, and it is also related to the fact that this Qin Hui is really effective.

Seeing that he was happy, Qin Hui also smiled, and said: "According to Your Majesty's plan, after the retreat, we will select excellent warriors from the Shaanxi archers and township soldiers, and reorganize them into various armies." In this way, although the number of people is roughly the same, in fact, the increase in combat power is completely different from the lazy situation in the past. ”

Zhao Huan was not as optimistic as Qin Hui, seeing that he was so excited, he only smiled faintly and asked, "How can you see it?" ”

Qin Hui somehow. I was most afraid of his casual face, and I felt a chill in my heart, so I had to put away my face and said cautiously: "The forbidden army is extremely high and the treatment is good, who wants to join the forbidden army?" In the past, the forbidden army was not concerned with military orders and military discipline, and it was inevitable that the combat strength would decline. His Majesty has made up his mind. The officers and men of the three armies were all terrified, and the people who were out of the Qing army all cried loudly, regretting that they did not practice martial arts that day. and even the army. In this way, those who remain know that it is powerful, and those who are new to the newcomers also know that the military discipline is different and ascend the throne. Moreover, His Majesty also said first, after the Qing army this time. The general supervisor army Yushi will be stationed in the army, and the military order and military discipline will be strictly enforced, which is the norm. In this way, why worry about the three armies not serving their orders, and not fighting to the death when they encounter the enemy! ”

This remark, he thought about it in advance, and said it in a clear and hierarchical manner, in order to make Zhao Huan more trustworthy and happy. It can even make him a privy councillor at the same time.

It's just that after finishing speaking, Zhao Huan's face remained unchanged. Although he said: "Qin Qing is well-informed." "But it's obviously perfunctory", how to care.

Of course he didn't know. In fact, this kind of reform and improvement of the military system can not be covered by a Qing army. China descended from the Qin and Han dynasties. The combat effectiveness of the army is getting lower and lower, and after the failure of the military system in the Tang Dynasty, the recruitment system of the Song Dynasty failed again, and when it came to the military system of the Ming Dynasty, it was simply a failure in failure.

Anyone who knows a little bit of history knows that the Song Dynasty's army had many disadvantages due to its low combat effectiveness, which was related to the lack of natural horse breeding land and the inability to have a large-scale cavalry team, and also related to the emperor's blind command, as well as the distrust of military generals and their dare not reuse. It was the first initiative of the Song Dynasty to use the method of changing the military to make the soldiers not know the generals, and the generals did not know the soldiers to limit the authority of the generals.

At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Southern Song Dynasty, this situation was changed to a considerable extent. Although there was still no formed cavalry corps, the army formed by relying on the personal charm of Yue Fei and other famous generals was strictly disciplined, had a strong will to fight, and could still maintain a strong fighting spirit in the face of a superior enemy.

The generals of the Yue family, the Taiwei army, and the Wu family army, all kinds of names, made the army's personal allegiance to the generals reach a dangerous situation that the Song Dynasty had never experienced at all.

Zhao Huan's concern is also this.

Of course, he believed in the loyalty of Yue Fei and the others, but any act of privatizing the army would make those in power unable to feel at ease, and he naturally could not avoid it.

In order to prevent such an embarrassing situation from appearing in the future, the only way to do this is to take precautions and first carry out the reform of the military system, not only to strengthen the combat effectiveness of the army, but also to strengthen the government's absolute control over the army.

It's just that if he considers and calculates like this, even if he tells Qin Hui to listen, he doesn't understand it at all.

Although this person has some talents, he is too enthusiastic in the end, which is exactly the same as his record in the history books.

With such a person, how could Zhao Huan rest assured that he would discuss the entire reform of the military system with him, if this person was making a ghost in it, it would be a disaster.

He just thought about it, but Qin Hui didn't know what was wrong, he just watched Zhao Huan's face become more and more gloomy, but he didn't know where he angered the emperor.

After half a ring, Zhao Huan suddenly asked: "This time you went to the Zhulu Qing Army, except for the generals who went out to fight, the rest of the remaining generals have contact, how do you feel?" ”

Qin Hui's face was embarrassed and he was silent.

Zhao Huan understood, waved his hand, and said, "Everyone else retreats." ”

Everyone quit according to the order, the system is the system, Zhao Huan is majestic, but more and more no one dares to offend. Seeing that everyone was withdrawing, Qin Hui said to Zhao Huan: "Your Majesty, in the opinion of the ministers, among the generals of Shaanxi Zhulu, Liu Jian should be the most outstanding, and the rest are insignificant. ”

"Not bad." Zhao Huan nodded, agreeing with his opinion.

Liu Jian, the commander of the Battle of Shunchang, broke the gold with 20,000 people and 100,000 soldiers, and was famous, although he was not the fourth general of Zhongxing, but it was not caused by many major battles of seniority and command, in fact, in terms of merit and ability, he was far above Liu Guangshi and others.

Qin Hui was encouraged, and said: "The Wu brothers are also generals. ”

"Yes, very good."

Generals, naturally not handsome, Qin Hui did not say this explicitly, and Zhao Huan also knew it in his heart.

"Quduan, handsome, but enterprising is not enough to keep it."

Zhao Huan also nodded. Knowing that although this Qin Hui is of humble character and has poor military talents, but for a well-known traitor and traitor, knowing people is the most basic kung fu, and Qin Hui's performance at this time is indeed beyond his expectations.

Seeing Qin Hui open his mouth to speak, Zhao Huan suddenly said to him, "How is Zhang Jun?" ”

Qin Hui did not hesitate, and immediately replied: "This person is greedy and brutal, and it is okay for the emperor to govern the army." The march did not show its length. The character is vile and useless. ”

Zhao Huan looked at Qin Hui with a smile.

Qin Hui only felt numb all over his body, and he didn't know what the emperor was thinking.

He didn't know that although he was very well disguised, he had changed his ways. The appearance of public loyalty and honesty is actually clear to Zhao Huan. If you talk about lowly conduct, Zhang Jun is naturally like this, but how strong can you Qin be.

But I heard Zhao Huan groan again: "This person's heart is towards the ninth brother, and he is guilty of being wronged. I know that very well. However, even if he is dedicated to me, such a person cannot be used. Governing the army is the credit of several generals under him, what does it have to do with him. This person is best at making money, and nothing else. ”

The emperor made such an examination, obviously sentencing Zhang Jun to death, Qin Hui secretly rejoiced in his heart that he had no reservations in this matter. It was right in the emperor's mind.

But I heard Zhao Heng say again: "How about seizing this person's military power?" ”

This topic is more serious than the right place to taste. Qin Hui lowered his head and thought about it, after half a sound. Fang gritted his teeth and said: "This matter requires a minister to calm the hearts of the army, and then act vigorously." does not make Zhang Jun have the opportunity to arrange calmly. ”

Zhao Heng glanced at him and asked, "Does this person dare to rebel?" Can the subordinate generals follow him? ”

Qin Hui replied: "In the opinion of the ministers, Zhang Jun treats the soldiers brutally and treats the generals leniently, and he is never stingy in rewarding. Naturally, he didn't dare to rebel, and his subordinate generals would definitely not obey, but if he switched to Jinren, his subordinates would be bewitched by him, and his own soldiers would not be able to succeed. ”

Speaking of this, his eyes lit up, and his voice suddenly became louder, and he said, "No wonder Your Majesty left him and his henchmen in Chang'an City, but it was for this matter." ”

Zhao Huan nodded and said: "Of course, I have a tolerant heart, but an incompetent and cowardly person like Zhang Jun can't be retained." This matter can be handled when Li Gang returns. ”

Qin Hui only felt terrified, the emperor's scheming had reached such a point. It seems that he is just testing himself, but in fact, how to deal with it, the emperor has already made a plan in his heart.

It's just that he can't understand that dealing with a general like Zhang Jun is bound to affect his whole body, and he doesn't know why the emperor told him at this time.

Seeing that his face turned blue and pale, Zhao Huan naturally knew what he was thinking, so he laughed and said, "Don't be afraid, this matter tells you, that is, I believe that you will not leak the news." ”

Qin Hui knelt on the ground and kowtowed, crying: "Your Majesty believes in the ministers so much, the ministers are extremely ashamed. ”

When he was pretentious, he heard Zhao Huan say again: "It's just that I will talk to you at this time, it's not that there is no reason." ”

"Your Majesty, please."

"The cardinal's black card has arrived, and after Yue Fei, the envoy of Taizhou Zhenfu, received my edict, he immediately used troops, and he had already broken Liu Guangshi's department. Liu Guangshi was captured, the army was defeated, and the Lin'an Rebellion was already a big decision. ”

"Huh??"

Qin Hui was shocked, and the boss with his mouth open couldn't close it half-loudly.

He is the same as ordinary people, he doesn't know that Zhao Huan also used Yue Fei's secret card, but he only knows that Li Gang went to Xiangyang, commanded a large army, and went to quell the chaos from Jingxiang to Liangzhejiang.

Since the army was assembled from Shaanxi, it had to pass through Guanzhong, Qinling, and Hanzhong, and then it could speed up its march by water. It would be the end of April for the army to leave Sichuan, not to mention the chaos under the city of Dalin'an.

And Xue Qiang and Wang Yongcheng traveled all the way, and they had already arrived in Taizhou, and even Zhao Huan did not know how to act after Yue Fei received the edict. I just knew that a month ago, Yue Fei received the edict, and it took less than ten days before and after to defeat more than 50,000 people of Liu's army under Lin'an City, and in the chaos of the army, captured Liu Guangshi.

In this way, the rebellion has been quelled, Jiangnan is settled, and no one in the world can threaten the throne of Zhao Huan.
