Chapter 1226: Jiangnan Law
The capture of Yangzhou was the result of Su Yuanxiu, Han Yu and Ke suffering with all their might.
Although Ke suffered in front of the two giants, the weight was slightly insufficient. But the three parties joined forces to take Yangzhou, and how Yangzhou should be managed next, or how to divide it, is still a problem.
The interests of the three parties are at stake, and they will definitely be discussed.
For this matter, Han Yu had no bottom in his heart.
As for Ke's suffering, he was very casual. He will definitely go back to Yuezhou.
He doesn't care how Yangzhou divides it. Even if he wanted to, he couldn't.
The Yangzhou issue is decided by Su Yuanxiu and Han Yu.
"Yangzhou has been decided, and it is only a matter of time before the chaotic party in Yangzhou is eliminated. Brother Su, we should discuss what to do in Yangzhou." Han Yu said.
"Brother Han, tell me your opinion first." Su Yuanxiu asked.
Han Yu thought of one thing, that is, the mutiny in the city before, and the common people dug tunnels for him.
Those people didn't go for Han Yu's reputation, but for the reputation of Changning Army.
Many of the lower classes in the city were dissatisfied with Di Jie's exploitation, and as soon as they heard that the Changning army was coming, they planned this matter.
The Changning Army has gained fame and is a righteous army.
"The old man only needs to take away enough silver and grain to reward the three armies and compensate the fallen soldiers. The Changning Army is known as the name of justice, and you will take it over to Brother Su, don't worry, the old man, you will definitely treat the people of Yangzhou City well." Han Yu said.
"Brother Han, that's not what I said. Yangzhou City was built by us together, how can it be monopolized by my family? We need to form an alliance so that the whole of Jiangnan and Lingnan will be our territory." Su Yuanxiu said.
"Since Brother Su is so straightforward, then the old man won't hide it. We are three armies, and we have different disciplines of military law. If it is mixed together, I am afraid that it will not only be difficult to manage the huge Yangzhou City, but will add chaos to Yangzhou City.
In this way, our original intention of fighting Yangzhou has been completely lost. As the saying goes, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. Yangzhou is handed over to you, and I am also relieved. And it won't affect our alliance."
Han Yu said.
"But according to Brother Han, aren't we still going our separate ways? Such an alliance is definitely not stable enough. Su Mou stood up today and took Yangzhou again, so naturally he will not let this Jiangnan continue to split." Su Yuanxiu said.
"Brother Su, what do you think? Let's talk about it." Han Yu said.
"Brother Han, as the leader of Jiangling and a veteran of the Three Dynasties, naturally understands the military policy implemented by Emperor Jingyang against the locality, right?" Su Yuanxiu asked.
"Well, the imperial garrison is separated from the military and political affairs of the local government." Han Yu said.
"Emperor Jingyang's strategy, we can continue to use." Su Yuanxiu said.
Emperor Jingyang implemented the separation of military and government, and the local government only had officers and soldiers, not soldiers. The local garrisons were stationed by the imperial court.
This kind of political strategy is conducive to preventing the situation of one side of the feudal officials from having too much military power and separating one side.
However, in fact, Emperor Jingyang's strategy of separating the military and the government has achieved good results in many places, but it still has not been able to put an end to the situation of excessive power of local governors.
For example, Han Yu, such as Di Jie.
Existences like this have military power in their hands, and they often have tens of thousands of troops.
And the garrisons sent by the imperial court to the local areas are very weak and redundant.
Su Yuanxiu has always felt that many of the strategies of the short-lived ghost are actually very good.
Although Emperor Jingyang was benevolent enough, he was also a well-deserved Ming monarch, and later generations could even leave a good reputation as the lord of Zhongxing in history.
However, the existence of many factors such as the current situation and the longevity of Emperor Jingyang determined that Emperor Jingyang could not completely break the situation of excessive power of local officials.
But I have to say that Emperor Jingyang's vision is very forward-looking.
Once his strategy is thoroughly implemented and effectively implemented, it will definitely ensure the stability of the world.
"Brother Su, tell me more." Han
Yu said.
"We not only want to implement the separation of the military from the government, but also add another article, the separation of the military from the government and the finances." Su Yuanxiu said.
"Oh? Brother Su's words are interesting." Han Yu seemed to have figured out what it meant.
The separation of military and government and finance sounds very good.
"The separation of military and financial powers, military affairs are under the command of military governors, government affairs are managed by local governors, and finances are managed by the corresponding government yamen. This is the strategic policy I have in mind, what does Brother Han think?" Su Yuanxiu asked.
In fact, what Su Yuanxiu said is not much different from the principle of the operation of the imperial court.
But Han Yu thought about it, why can the imperial court operate more stably than the local government?
It is nothing more than because the imperial court subdivides all the powers, performs their own duties, cooperates with each other but does not interfere with each other, and forms a stable structure in order to operate stably.
The political policy implemented by Emperor Jingyang is actually similar to what Su Yuanxiu said, that is, to slowly move the imperial court to the local area.
However, it is difficult for the local people with heavy fists to shake their foundation, so they are as strong as Emperor Jingyang, and they can't carry this set thoroughly.
Su Yuanxiu's proposal is equivalent to a major reform of the local government.
Han Yu thought about it, it was actually really feasible.
How can we make the world stable?
Only by breaking the original shackles and standing up after breaking can we achieve the effect that Su Yuanxiu said.
And now, they have the initial conditions.
Isn't the entire Jiangnan broken once?
Now that the Jiangnan controlled by the coalition forces basically has little to do with the imperial court.
Because the Changning Army was originally a rebel army, and Han Yu joined the camp of the rebel army, it was equivalent to working against the imperial court.
Then if they want to go further, the first thing they need to do is not to use military force, not to send troops to the Northern Expedition.
It's about completely stabilizing your own jurisdiction.
Only by having a stable rear can the Northern Expedition be as successful as possible in the future.
"Restructure the rights structure and reallocate all resources. In the same way that the commander of the army cannot interfere with local power and financial power, the other two cannot interfere with the rights of the other two. Brother Han, what do you think of my proposal?" Su Yuanxiu asked.
Han Yu frowned, judging from his opinion, as long as this set of structures can be stabilized and implemented, all parties will be stable, and the people will benefit the most.
Because only when the upper structure is stable, the bottom layer will also operate in an orderly manner. And the order at the bottom is often the manifestation of the people living and working in peace and contentment.
Everyone performs their duties, only does their own things, and does not exceed their authority, so that they can achieve long-term peace and stability.
"But the power of the army is concentrated in the hands of one person, and the other two sides may have to compromise with it. Only by mastering the army can we be regarded as having the right to speak." Han Yu said.
The army can fight the world in troubled times, but after the world is calmed down, the army leader becomes a burden.
The excessive power of the army breeds rebellion, and the other two have no military power, how can they oppose the leaders of the army?
"The armies need to be divided and each administering the affairs of the army in his own jurisdiction. Still like Emperor Jingyang, army leaders can only lead troops and train troops, but cannot transfer troops.
If the leader of the army needs to transfer troops, he should ask the other two for advice. Only when it is unanimously approved can troops be dispatched.
I know Brother Han is worried, but no one has walked this road. If we want to achieve long-term peace and stability, we cannot follow the old path, but can only explore a new path.
If this structure can be completely stabilized and the initial stage is passed, the results will be sustained.
Any reform, any innovation, will encounter all kinds of problems. What we need to do is to adjust our management ideas according to specific problems.
Only when the government is stable can the common people live in peace. And the common people are the key to the stability of the world.
Everything we do, all the starting points, should be considered from the side of the people. Brother Han, you think
What about it?"
Su Yuanxiu asked.
"Brother Su's insight, the old man is far behind. As Brother Su said, if such a reform can be successful, it will indeed be of great benefit to the stability of the world." Han Yu nodded and said.
"So, what we should do now is not for you to go back to your house, but for me to go back to my house on my own basis. We should join hands and think first about how to stabilize the whole South, and then we should think about the Northern Expedition." Su Yuanxiu said.
"The old man can agree with Brother Su's opinion and implement the separation of powers. But now how should our armies be settled?" Han Yu asked.
"This is indeed the most critical issue at the moment, you have your army, I have my army. It is unrealistic for each of us to give up our military power at the moment. The world is not yet settled, and we must not give up our military power." Su Yuanxiu said.
"Hmm......" Han Yu nodded with a frown.
Han Yu felt that Su Yuanxiu's proposal was quite good, such a good reform must not die in the cradle.
"It's wartime, and wartime has wartime responses. We can now form a Cabinet, led by both you and me, as well as the backbone of both sides. Every cabinet member has one veto power. In this way, it can test whether you and I can work together and whether we have the same goal." Su Yuanxiu said.
"This old man can say yes."
Han Yu nodded.
"But the old man still has a doubt, I want to ask Su Xuan to answer it." Han Yu said.
"Brother Han just said." Su Yuanxiu smiled faintly.
"Are you really the original Su Yuanxiu who killed people without blinking?" Han Yu asked.
When Su Yuanxiu heard this, he glanced at Xiao Qiao.
"Since Brother Han asked, then I won't hide it. Actually, it's the first time we've met." Su Yuanxiu said with a smile.
"Huh? Aren't you Su Yuanxiu? Is this impossible? Your natal sword and sword moves ......."
"Brother Han, there is another Su Yuanxiu in this world. That person was the other me, and now he was entrenched in Moon City on the eastern shore of Moon Lake. Long Weijun is now under his command."
"What!"
When Han Yu heard this, he immediately stood up in shock.
"You said that there is a Su Yuanxiu on the other side of Moon Lake?" Han Yu's face was full of disbelief.
"Exactly!"
