Chapter 399: For the sake of future generations to face the chaos of war

"Nonsense! Do you think war is child's play! He even has to go out with him, and he says that if the news is not true, he will never live such a bastard! ”

"What are you when you are? You are still responsible, and you are squeezing me with words? ”

"The minister doesn't, the minister is."

"I don't care what you are, I don't care what you think, how can military affairs be as simple as you think as a young man, if you have a mistake, how do you explain to me?"

Xia Yuan moved his lips, if I have a mistake, it is estimated that it will be cold, I am afraid that I don't need to explain to your old man, I just need to explain to Lord Yama.

"How do I explain to Xiurong? Even if you want to conquer the Japanese kingdom, what does it have to do with you? What do you have to do with a civil servant? ”

"It's involved."

Xia Yuan replied suddenly, and then raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, there is a relationship, it is because the minister is a civil official, so the minister has to go." If you want to conquer the Japanese state, even if a cadre of ministers in the court agrees, they must let a civil official in, otherwise, they will not agree to this matter. ”

Since the change of Tumubao in the Ming Dynasty, Yu Qian coordinated the Beijing camp to win the battle to defend the Beijing Division, which opened a precedent for civilian officials to take charge of the army.

After that, in the Ming Dynasty, whenever there was a war, the civilian official led the troops, or the civilian official entered the army to serve as a superintendent and served as a governor, in short, no matter what the name, in case of war, the matter of civilian officials controlling the power of the army has become an unspoken rule.

This is the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and when it comes to the late Ming Dynasty, it will be directly put on the bright side, Xiong Tingbi, Yuan Chonghuan, Sun Chengzong, Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng. These military generals who are famous in the history books one after another, without exception, are all from civilian backgrounds.

In short, in today's Ming Dynasty, if you want to go to war, you must have the participation of civilian officials, otherwise you don't want to send troops.

Since you always have to let a Wenchen in, why can't it be yourself?

He is also a civil official, anyway, those ministers have no requirements for this civil official, and it doesn't matter who this civil official is, as long as he is a civil official.

In short, their purpose is one, the military power of the Ming Dynasty must be held in the hands of civil officials, and the affairs of civil ministers in charge of the army must not be interrupted.

Once interrupted, it is difficult to continue.

Zhu Youzhu also thought of this at this time, squirmed his lips twice, and then said angrily: "Even if there is a relationship, even if you want to let the civil officials in, then you don't need to go." ”

"Then which civil official does Your Majesty plan to let go?"

Emperor Hongzhi was asked, if he wanted to send troops, he really didn't know who to order, so he had to say: "Xia Qing's family is too wide, right?" Do you even have to take care of my affairs? ”

"The minister naturally doesn't care about this, and he doesn't dare to care, the minister just asks casually, and says something by the way.

All dynasties and dynasties have been political and military, civil and military separation, but since the change of Tumubao, since the change of the civil fort, since the Shaobao Admiral Jingying defended the Beijing Division, there has been a civilian official in charge of the army.

There are advantages and disadvantages of civilian officials in running the army, among which the pros and cons are not to be said, but only the disadvantages, and the most serious of these disadvantages is that civilian officials often do not understand military affairs, blindly command, and in terms of authority, they also hinder the generals who lead the troops, so that the war is often unfavorable. ”

"The rest of the civilian officials don't understand military affairs, do you understand?"

"The minister doesn't know much either, but the minister can guarantee that he doesn't point fingers and hand things over to someone who understands military affairs, which is one thing, and the other is that the minister knows some of the situation of the Japanese country, and knows where the silver mines of the Japanese country are, and there is no more suitable than the minister."

"Even if you're the most suitable, you know that fighting a war kills people, do you know?"

"The minister knows."

At this moment, I don't know what the reason is, Xia Yuan has strengthened his determination to go out with the army to conquer the Japanese country, "With the seriousness of today's civil unrest in the Japanese country, our army has a great chance of winning this expedition against the Japanese country." Even if the civil strife is not serious, or even if there is no civil strife, our army will be safe to protect itself, and the ministers will definitely protect themselves, and there will be no mistakes. ”

“.” Zhu Youzhu was speechless, he saw a sense of firmness and stubbornness from this goods.

I really want to open his brain and see what kind of structure is inside, and why the good ones are going to the battlefield.

A gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, and everyone seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages, but he takes the initiative to ask for his life and runs to dangerous places such as the battlefield.

"Do you really want to go?"

Xia Yuan was silent for a while, and said softly: "I hope that Your Majesty's wish will be fulfilled." ”

“.” Emperor Hongzhi looked at him for a while, and sighed a little weakly, "Then you can go." ”

It's all said and done, and no matter how much persuasion continues, it won't work, not to mention that if you don't agree, it seems that you won't be able to fulfill him.

If you are with the army, as long as you don't go to the front line, it should be no problem to save your life.

As for running to the front line, Emperor Hongzhi felt that Xia Yuan had not yet reached this level, he was a scholar, he couldn't dance a gun and a stick, and he didn't have martial arts

Oh, it's not that he doesn't have martial arts, and he even has a miraculous body.

It's just that this miraculous protective body has to be put in big quotation marks, and it is estimated that such a ridiculous thing is believed by Zhu Hou.

But no matter what, if you want to go, go for it.

What's more, this person who took the initiative to ask for his life is reasonable, and there is indeed no one more suitable to go than him.

Even had to go on an expedition to attack the Japanese country, and the civilian officials who accompanied the army, except for this goods, it was difficult to find the rest of the candidates.

In short, don't let anything happen, if something happens, he really doesn't know how to explain it to his daughter.

I don't know how to explain it to myself.

"Your Majesty, when does Your Majesty plan to send troops to the war?"

Emperor Hongzhi's face pulled down, he couldn't wait to go to the battlefield, he really didn't know the severity of the matter.

"What are you anxious about, I still have to discuss this matter with the ministers of the DPRK and China, will it be as easy as you think to dispatch troops?"

"The minister didn't think it was easy to deploy troops, just ask. Moreover, the minister has admonished that this time to conquer the Japanese country, firearms and artillery must be brought. ”

Emperor Hongzhi snorted, didn't want to say more to him, and waved his hand, "I know, you can go back." ”

"The minister retired."

Although I don't want to admit it, the knife in the hand of the little devil is indeed a very advanced forging process, regardless of whether it is labor-intensive and time-consuming, but this knife is really strong and sharp.

It is higher than the sword forging technology of the Ming Dynasty, and the horses must not be able to carry it when crossing the sea to attack the Japanese, even if it is brought, the ship can not bring too much, and if you don't ride a horse, it is inconvenient to use long weapons.

Qi Jiguang's wolf milling is to restrain the knife, but unfortunately the specific production process, he only knows that it is made of bamboo, and then first like this, and then like that, it's fine, anyway, it's not clear.

So you still have to rely on muskets, artillery.

While thinking in his heart, Xia Yuan walked out, and before he stepped out of the door of the warm pavilion, he was stopped by Emperor Hongzhi.

"Shipbuilding drawing, take the shipbuilding drawing."

Hearing this, Xia Yuan remembered that he didn't take the shipbuilding drawing, and turned back, Emperor Hongzhi picked up the drawings on the imperial case and handed them to him, when Xia Yuan's hand touched the shipbuilding drawing, Zhu You asked in a sloppy manner: "Tell me, why do you have to go out with the army?" ”

"The minister and His Majesty have the same thoughts, just so that future generations can avoid war."
