Huo Quai's cultivation lasted for two hours, and the qi in his body flowed vigorously.

The secret pattern of the soldier character he comprehended, and the original simplicity of the two best strategies in the sea, are all pulling the aura of heaven and earth and integrating into the body.

In the process of practicing, Huo Qubing broke through the appearance of heaven and earth, entered the real world, tried to get closer to the 'source', and tried to touch the realm breakthrough that countless people dreamed of.

At dawn, Huo Quzhi opened his mouth to breathe, as if the power of the stars had been taken into his belly.

He then turned to exhaling again.

With one breath and one breath, the practice ended.

The level of the top of the half-saint is like a 'water cup' that has reached a state of overflow, and it cannot hold more water at this stage.

Huo Quzhi currently has two directions to continue to increase his cultivation and break through to the Holy Age.

One is to broaden the meridians after a period of accumulation, so that the 'cup' can hold more and more abundant heaven and earth qi, so as to break through the existing realm and enter another new heaven and earth.

Another way is to draw the aura deeper into the real world, that is, to raise the quality of 'water' to a new level.

Both take time to accumulate until they come to fruition.

Huo Qubing thought for a moment, his thoughts sank into the sea of knowledge, and blessed the war symbol raised from the ancient well to the existing several middle strategies, so that they could be promoted to the best policies.

He counted his own military strategies, and if he knew all the magical powers and military strategies carried by the sea soldier book, it would correspond to thirty-six strategies. Then there are also throwing bricks and attracting jade, hiding knives in laughter, pointing at mulberry and scolding Huai, flowering on trees, stealing beams and changing pillars, encircling Wei to save Zhao, and false ways to cut down Yu, a total of seven military strategies have not been opened.

There are 29 military strategies that have been opened, of which 17 have reached the top policy.

"If you can open the next few military strategies and obtain the full strategy of the military book, the final changes in the book of war will be derived."

In the sea of knowledge, Guiguzi suddenly spoke: "So far, you should be the first one who can open twenty-nine military strategies in the first line of soldiers." ”

Huo Quzhi smiled: "Driving more is not necessarily a good thing, more is not as good as fine." If it weren't for the knowledge of Hai Gujing's push of the military book, I wouldn't have tried to open so many military strategies. ”

He added: "What is the final change in the full opening of the book of knowing the sea?" ”

"In the past, no one had ever achieved the magic power of the soldiers, and I just relied on the divine thoughts to coincide with the ancient well, and deduced the conclusion through practice. It is estimated that it is related to the core of the military edge between heaven and earth, the number of qi! Guiguzi explained.

Huo Quzhi nodded slightly, got up and left the study of meditation.

When you practice to his realm, you can clearly feel that your inner world and the real world outside are always influencing each other.

It was as if he had become a part of heaven and earth, and yet independent of heaven and earth.

This is the Tao of the Tao, the Tao of the innate earth, and the Tao of the Heaven and the Earth, and the Tao of the Heaven and the Earth instead of the realm.

The individual and the external world complement each other, and every time you practice, you will feel that you are one step closer to the 'source point' of the real world.

It's dark.

Huo Qubing came to the Weiyang Palace to go to the court, and after dispersing the court, he walked to the public office belonging to the Great Sima.

Although he stepped down from his position as Lang Zhongling, Da Sima was the pinnacle of military power.

Ma, Wu also, the general martial arts also.

When he was the commander of Lang Zhongling in the past, he was Wei Qing's general military preparation.

Huo Qubing will stay in the Forbidden Army Hall as a director.

Now that Lang Zhongling has been relieved, Wei Qing is not there, and it is the first time he has come to the flank of the front hall of Weiyang Palace, which is equivalent to the Great Sima Gongya of the Third Duke.

The Great Sima Palace, adjacent to the Great General's Palace.

It is a square building with a magnificent atmosphere.

The general and the great Sima Gongya, together with the prime minister's office at the head of the civil officials, one east and one west, surrounded by the main hall of Weiyang Palace, symbolizing the civil and military accompaniment and protecting the imperial power.

Wei Qing is not here, and all military affairs related to Dahan must be sent to Huo Quai.

Mornings are fleeting in the hustle and bustle.

At noon, Huo Quzhi looked at the bright sun outside the hall.

There are still stacks of various notebooks on the desk.

These include the output of gold and iron in various parts of the Han Dynasty in the first half of the year, how many war weapons can be made, guns, spears and armor, military expenses and so on.

These are all important things that are directly related to the combat effectiveness of the Han army, and they should be used for him to see and stamp.

If neither he nor Wei Qing were there, the emperor would personally take over this part of the authority.

Because of the continuous war, in terms of armament, we dare not be sloppy.

Huo Quzhi stretched his waist and continued to deal with all kinds of official business.

He came to the palace to sit on the council, and the emperor was a little more leisurely.

By noon, Liu Che had finished the recital early.

coincided with Dong Zhongshu, too often Zhou and others came to play.

The emperor smiled and said: "The chamberlain came early in the morning to tell me that he had been sick and became a great Sima for three years, and today he went to the main office for the first time to sit in the hall and review the affairs of the whole army."

I've been calculating all morning, I'm missing about one-third of the martial arts here, and Da Sima seems to be very efficient, so you can go with me to take a look. ”

It was rare for the emperor to be interested, and everyone got up and hugged the emperor out of the study.

The emperor promoted the national fortunes, covered the breath of the group, and secretly approached the military office of Da Sima.

In the distance, I heard Huo Quai's voice.

In the Great Sima Palace, Lang Zhong ordered Li Kang, a cadre of generals of the forbidden army, Fulu Branch, Zhao Anji, Zhao Ponu and others to stand in a row and accept questions.

"The bereavement of the fallen generals under the command of our forbidden army, which is 50 stone higher than that of the border army, was set by Li Dangling after he became the commander of Lang."

"Yes...... The last general thought that the forbidden army was the elite of the Son of Heaven, and everything was higher than the border army, so he should take more in the pension. Li Dang peeked at his boss.

Huo Quzhi is also looking at Li Kang.

"If you feel that you are a forbidden army, superior to others, you will compete for the first place on the battlefield, in military skills, and in combat effectiveness. Instead of taking more casualties, those who died were all Han soldiers, and the pensions should be treated equally.

The life of the forbidden army is fate, but the border army is not? ”

Huo Quzhi's prestige accumulated in the army in the past few years was unattainable, and he said it calmly, but Li Dang was in a cold sweat on his back, and he agreed repeatedly: "The last general has written it down, this matter is what the last general has done wrong, and when he goes back, he will ask for a fine for three months as a punishment." ”

Huo Quzhi snorted, and looked down at the other notebook in his hand.

"There are places that ask for more garrisons, and the clan has also sent excerpts, wanting to send additional Han troops as escorts in Huangzhuang everywhere, but they all refused. Not only did they not increase their troops, but they also had to reduce the authority of the clan's private soldiers.

This matter must be strictly controlled, including the system of raising soldiers, and I will start your majesty later, and it is not advisable to raise scholars privately.

What do the clans want so many soldiers and horses to be stationed in? ”

Huo Quzhi said solemnly: "Which branch of the sect handed over the fold, and then mention the increase in troops, ignore it." If you have any questions, let them come to me. ”

Li Dare took a step forward and said with a bitter face:

"Da Sima, it's still my excerpt. They didn't dare to look for you, so they came to me, and this matter really couldn't be pushed back, so they wrote an excerpt and presented it to you. ”

Huo Quzhi raised his eyes: "Why don't you dare to come to me, I'm an unreasonable person?" ”

Li Dang, Zhao Ponu, Zhao Anji and others nodded together, thought about it for a while, felt that it was wrong, and shook their heads together.

Li Dang made a gesture of wiping his neck with a knife, which means that Da Sima, you turn your face and dare to kill the clan, the key is that it's okay to be over, if you want to replace us, it's over.

This cannot be said explicitly, so when making gestures, the meaning needs to be understood.

Huo Quzhi waved his hand: "I will send someone to the sect to send this fold, you don't care."

I asked you to come over because I have something to say, about the arrangements for the old soldier and the wounded soldier after they are discharged.

Our army has been fighting for many years, the wounded, sick, and discharged from the army, and the bereavement pensions of the dead soldiers have continued to increase, the national treasury has been burdened year after year, and military spending has increased at a rate of doubling every year. The first excerpt I read in the morning was the amount of military spending that has increased over the past few years.

It was Li Xiang, Zhang Yushi, Sang Hongyang and several others who knew that I was coming to sit in the hall and jointly asked people to give it to me.

The problem of growing military spending and pensions has reached a time when it must be solved, and if it continues to be hoarded, there will be big problems. ”

He added: "My opinion is that the local armies that have never been on the battlefield will be reduced in large numbers. At the same time, an internal army was formed to replenish it.

The so-called internal army is mostly composed of veterans on the battlefield who go to local posts after being discharged from the army.

The original local army was a young and middle-aged laborer, who went home to farm, and was recruited as a reserve army during the war. ”

"This not only solves the resettlement of old soldiers, reduces the burden on the treasury, but also adds a group of strong laborers, and the huge local military system that has been laid off is used to engage in production and strengthen our big man."

Huo Quzhi is talking about the direction of military reform, which is also something he has been thinking about in recent years.

Replacing a number of local armies with veterans for farming is a combination of the conscription system and the government military system, which is suitable for the feudal social system.

The advantage of this is that it curbs the drawbacks of the recruitment system of purely professional soldiers and the tendency to create rebellion and turmoil, and at the same time, there will be no problem of the government military system being half a soldier and half a peasant, and in the long run, the armament will be slack, and the combat strength will be weakened.

After the local army is dismantled, they will be given land and become 'small landlords', and many people will be happy and readily agree, so there will be no unrest.

This also solves the problem of continuous wars and sparse population.

Of course, there are drawbacks, but weighing the pros and cons is still a feasible way to do it.

The DPRK and China have also been studying this matter recently, and there are pros and cons in the weighing of left and right.

The solution proposed by Huo Quzhi is the most suitable for the current Han army.

This has to do with the fact that he was in charge of the Han army and had more to do with the Han army system.

More importantly, it relies on the insight and experience of the millennium that followed.

When he says it, it feels like the window paper has been pierced, and it sounds very simple.

In fact, the conscription system and the government military system are the two major directions of the evolution and reform of the military in ancient times, and it is absolutely difficult to propose such a large-scale reform of the military system without the empirical perspective of later generations.

Huo Qubing put forward a number of military adjustment plans in the palace and discussed them with the generals.

The emperor was listening outside, the corners of his mouth slowly rose, and he said to the left and right:

"Reducing the local army and resettling veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time can strengthen the cohesion of the DPRK and China.

The local army was cut down and the land was distributed to reassure the people, and everyone rejoiced. What the DPRK and China have gained is a more stable popular will and public opinion.

The veterans can be properly resettled, and the soldiers should be more brave and serve on the battlefield. ”

While analyzing, the emperor said the most important summary: "The ability to cure the army from illness is with me, I have taught him this since I was a child." ”

Highlight the key - follow me!

The benefits listed above are to promote this last sentence.

Dong Zhongshu is an old man, and said with a smile: "The old minister pondered the meaning, the policy proposed by the champion king is indeed in the same vein as His Majesty's method of governing the council, balanced left and right, choosing the best, and His Majesty's actions and thoughts, which is very cool." ”

The emperor almost laughed, turned around and walked back: "Go back, Da Sima has a lot of things, I won't go in and bother." ”

Zhou Ping secretly beat his chest and paused, Dong Zhongshu misunderstood me and robbed me of my words, I was still thinking about what to say, this old master said it first.

A group of people followed the emperor and walked back.

The emperor asked: "When you come to the court from all over the world, how are you preparing for the sealing of Zen?" ”

This is Taichang's purview, Zhou Ping hurriedly said: "My Han belongs to the ninety-nine counties, more than 1,100 clans from all over the country, from the south to the body, to the north more than 70 tribes, the Mediterranean, Rome, Germanic, Macedonia and other subject countries on the west side will come to the court."

The farthest Germans have already set out to deliver excerpts and will arrive in Chang'an before the ceremony. ”

"At that time, all the people of Chang'an will celebrate together, and sacrificing heaven and earth will be a grand event that has not been seen in a thousand years, Your Majesty Mingjian!"

The emperor nodded happily and looked far away, as if looking at the mountains and rivers beyond Chang'an.

In this land of China, under my rule, both cultural and martial arts have reached the peak of thousands of years.

Who can match the emperor's exploits in front of him?!

In the following period, the world was bustling, all of them came for the emperor's order, and Chang'an became more and more lively.

The grand occasion of a hundred countries coming to congratulate is beginning to appear.

In the Champion Palace, in the evening, Dong Zhongshu, Ru Bohu and others gathered over.

"The West tribe has planted hands in my Han, including people around me. I couldn't separate myself before, and gave the clue to Xiuyi, and felt to see who was hiding in the dark, but there was news? Huo Quzhi asked.

Ru Bohu said: "I came here to talk about this, do you know who I have found?" ”

"Both? It seems that there are a lot of people who have found it? ”
