On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, the day after Hao Ren agreed to Boyan's invitation, the Hanchen in the court completed the ceremony of three bows and nine bows, and Kublai Khan said to Hao Ren: "Hao Ren. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, you will go and dispose of the navy. ”

Hao Ren was stunned, he didn't expect Kublai Khan to give such an order. Turning his head to look at Boyan Dashuai again, he saw that Boyan Dashuai still had a cold expression, although he glanced back at Hao Ren, he didn't say anything.

At this time, Hao Ren was so angry that he smoked. Co-authored Kublai Khan and Boyan Marshal, did the two collude to seize Hao Ren's power! If so, then it is better to say it directly in the court. Annoyed, Hao Ren said very unhappily: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to recommend a candidate to take over the government soldiers. ”

Kublai Khan said, "Let your deputy, Amire, take over, and he is familiar with this matter." ”

Hao Ren was speechless. His deputy was indeed familiar with the affairs of the government soldiers, and his attitude towards Kublai Khan could be described as sincere and fearful, and as long as the Great Khan gave the order, Amire would probably agree to all the orders of the Great Khan. From this point of view, Hao Ren felt that Kublai Khan was very mindful of being confronted by Hao Ren.

However, at this point, Hao Ren knew that he would never be able to deal with it. He could only answer: "The minister obeys the order!" ”

Kublai Khan glanced at Hao Ren meaningfully and began to deal with other matters. Hao Ren's thoughts were surging in his heart, and he didn't listen to what happened after that. After in-depth study of the government soldier system, Hao Ren felt that this system was not only the Han system, but also the product of the country's high degree of institutionalization. The core of the military system is the nationalization of the army, not the privatization of the Mongol army.

For example, Hao Ren Wanhu took 10,000 people himself, and provided 500 cavalry to Hao Ren Wanhu. These 500 cavalry did not belong to the Great Khan, but belonged to Hao Renwan's personal family, just like the population of 10,000 households. If Hao Ren Wanhu wanted to rebel, these 500 cavalry would join Hao Ren Wanhu in the battle and raise the rebel flag against Kublai Khan. Just like the current Chagatai Khanate and the Ögedai Khanate.

The government soldiers are selected according to the financial resources and population of each locality, and the training system and combat command system received by the soldiers are subordinate to the two groups of courtiers sent by the imperial court. At the beginning of the war, the government soldiers gathered to fight. After the war, the soldiers returned to their hometowns. From the beginning to the end, only the Emperor could mobilize these troops through the Tiger Fu, and no one else could let the government soldiers use them for them. The more complete the government soldier system and the stronger the government soldiers, the stronger the power of the emperor and the state.

Hao Ren Wanhu was indeed to realize his ideals, but he did not expect that his efforts would be dug up by a group of people led by Emperor Kublai Khan. "Lü's Spring and Autumn Period" says that if you fish with all your might, you won't get it, and there will be no fish next year; If you burn the serval and the field, will you not get it, and there will be no beast next year. The way of fraud, although it can be stolen now, will not be recovered in the future, and it is not a long technique.

Kublai Khan was the beginning of the Sinicization of the Mongols, but what he is doing now seems to be undermining his efforts. And a character like Boyan Dashuai......

Thinking of the handsome Bo Yan, Hao Ren's heart became even more uncomfortable. With the insight of Marshal Boyan, he actually echoed the request of Kublai Khan. This made Hao Ren completely unexpected.

When he got out of the court, Hao Ren found that Marshal Boyan and other courtiers were leaving together, so he followed behind Marshal Boyan. Out of the palace gate, when Marshal Boyan got into the carriage, Hao Ren immediately followed. The door of Bo Yan's carriage was not closed at all, Hao Ren took the opportunity to sit in, and then closed the door.

"Are you going to ask me why I am calculating you?" Da Shuai was the first to speak.

Hao Ren was stunned at first, and then replied indignantly: "That's true! ”

"I am a servant of the Great Khan, and I will do whatever the Great Khan tells me to do."

"You ......" Hao Ren didn't expect Boyan to say this at all, although he asked an opening, he couldn't continue to say the rest of it.

"Dissatisfied?"

“…… No. Hao Ren said extremely unconvinced.

"If you are not convinced, then why don't you speak directly in the court."

"The Great Khan didn't say that he wanted to abolish the government military system, what did I say at the time? Because the Great Khan has not done what he has not done, accusing the Great Khan of not succeeding? Hao Ren said indignantly.

"In this case, let's do a good job of the water master's affairs. Is there anything else going on? "Marshal Boyan gave an eviction order.

In the face of such a subordinate system, Hao Ren has nothing to say at all. Since Marshal Boyan gave the order, he could only get out of the car. After getting out of the car, Hao Ren saw the carriage of Marshal Boyan close the door, the coachman drove the horses, and the carriage drove away. Because of the use of rubber tires bought from the Song Kingdom, the carriage of the handsome Boyan ran very briskly, and soon disappeared without a trace.

Hao Ren stood indignantly in the open space of the cold spring, let the cold wind blow for a while, and then got into his carriage dejectedly. Sitting in the car, Hao Ren punched the seat.

That night, Marshal Boyan went to meet Kublai Khan and told him about his conversation with Hao Ren during the day. Kublai Khan laughed and said, "That kid really didn't say anything, it wouldn't be you who said good things for him, right?" ”

"Nope." Marshal Boyan replied simply and clearly.

"How about saying a few kind words for him? Although Hao Ren's foal is fast, it has not suffered any twists and turns. He thought things too simply. Kublai Khan's tone was very relaxed.

"Why didn't Your Majesty tell Hao Ren what was in his heart. Although Wanhu is young, he can still understand His Majesty's meaning. ”

"Such a kid still has to sharpen it to get rid of his thoughts." Kublai Khan replied.

When Boyan left, Kublai Khan lit himself a Luzon cigar. A puff of sweet smoke came out of his mouth, and Kublai Khan felt refreshed. Now Luzon cigars have become one of the hottest popular luxury goods in Dayuan. After each pump, Kublai Khan felt his spirits lifted.

As before, the Great Khan felt that his spirit at this time was naturally excited. With this strand at the end, the Great Khan thought about Hao Ren's affairs. In fact, the day after Hao Ren opposed the transformation of the government soldiers into the Tanma Red Army, Kublai Khan had already figured out the joints in this. On the whole, Kublai Khan was very satisfied with Hao Ren's performance, and among Kublai Khan's men, there were not many people like Hao Ren who could stick to his ideas, be unwavering, and even dare to confront Kublai Khan for the sake of correct ideas. Or that the number is scarce.

If Hao Ren was not a member of the family, Kublai Khan would have reused it immediately. However, Hao Ren was a family of 10,000 people, which made Kublai Khan's impulse to reuse cold.

If the ten thousand households of the Bo'er family were on the grassland, Kublai Khan would not be particularly wary, but Hao Ren was a courtier. In other words, if Kublai Khan reused Hao Ren, Hao Ren was likely to gather a large number of courtiers and form a huge faction.

In addition, Kublai Khan felt that Hao Ren lacked a sense of crisis. Theoretically, the government soldier system can last for thousands of generations, but the Song State in the south will continue to fight against the Great Yuan in another two or three years. At this time, the government military system was far less reliable than the Tanma Red Army, which was directly under the command of the Great Khan.

No matter what the reason is, it makes Kublai Khan feel that he has to sharpen Hao Ren. Grinding away the arrogance that makes this pony so that it can be used better.
