Chapter 244: Lord Ye dared to overthrow the imperial system, Zhu Yuanzhang thanked him, and it was normal to order the founding emperor!
Chapter 244 Lord Ye dared to admonish the overthrow of the imperial system, Zhu Yuanzhang thanked him, and it was normal to order the founding emperor!
Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma, after hearing Ye Qing's words, almost thought of the topography of Yanmen Guanzhongmen at the same time.
Yanmen Guanzhong Gate is the same as the East and West Second Gate, it is the 'eight' figure opening plain terrain formed by two natural mountains, but it is different from the East and West Second Gate, the plain in this opening is really too flat, flat to the point that it is like being artificially made.
In addition to the endless meadows, there are only a few streams that cannot stop the people and horses, and are almost negligible.
If it weren't for the general surnamed Ye who was responsible for the construction of Yanmen Pass in the Tang Dynasty, that is, the first guard of Yanmen Pass, who built the 'Stone Wall Labyrinth Array' 500 steps outside the city, there would be no obstacle in front of the middle gate of Yanmen Pass.
Thinking of the stone wall maze array, Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma immediately understood Ye Qing's intentions.
Zhu Yuanzhang asked: "Do you want to stop them in the stone wall maze array, and at the same time not destroy the stone wall maze array built by the ancestors, so you don't need cannons?" ”
Ye Qing only felt that this old boy was still quite smart, but it was not made by any ancestors, he built it in the Tang Dynasty.
It's not wrong to cherish your own work!
Besides, in his Ye Qing's opinion, no matter how good this cannon is, it will be a cluster consumption, and it will not be able to achieve absolute firepower coverage, and there will be fish that will slip through the net after all.
He has a better way to make full use of the Stone Wall Labyrinth Array while also playing better than the cannon!
Ye Qing nodded and said: "It seems that the official didn't tie you up in vain, no, I didn't invite you to be a general in vain, and I understood the official's intentions at a glance." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang listened to such praise, and only felt that this was not a compliment, he just replied in his heart, 'I don't have any ability at all, this Ming Dynasty was picked up for nothing?' ’
At the same time, he smiled and said, "Then we have to thank Master Ye more?" ”
Ye Qing said as he should be: "Of course, this official gives you the honor to wear battle armor again, and once again you have a general addiction, this official can be compared to your Bole!" ”
"You"
The fire in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart burned again, and he really couldn't understand how there could be such a brazen person in the world.
Queen Ma looked at the two people who were about to evolve into 'needles to Maimang', and her brain hurt a little.
She hurriedly smiled and said: "Lord Ye, although the people are not familiar with military affairs, they also feel curious, since you have been sure that the enemy will concentrate on attacking Zhongmen tomorrow, but you don't use artillery, what kind of fighting is this?" ”
Ye Qing didn't answer directly, just looked at the 'Stone Wall Labyrinth Array' in the sand table, and said with a deep and serious gaze: "This official said, don't rely too much on superior weapons. ”
"Our ancestors didn't have cannons, so didn't they also beat the Huns out?"
"The stupid emperor has cannons and hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, and he will still be served by others, and he will even be tied up to learn other people's customs!"
"A capable general, Rao is only a lonely city, and he can also create a story of 'the city is full of white hair, he does not lose his sword, and he has resisted alone for fifty years, how dare he forget the Tang Dynasty'!"
At this moment, Ye Qing felt a trace of unfriendly gaze.
He knew that this old man Guo, who was a fan of Zhu Yuanzhang's brains, substituted the 'stupid emperor' into Zhu Yuanzhang's body.
Ye Qing hurriedly explained playfully: "Don't look at this official like this, this official didn't say that he was in charge of His Majesty, and this official has said more than once that His Majesty's military skills are only on the right of Tang Taizong!" ”
"What this official means is that it is very likely that such a stupid emperor will appear in the descendants of His Majesty!"
"This is a very normal thing, the saying that you can't be rich for three generations makes sense, the two shames of Jingkang in the Song Dynasty, aren't they just these two big fools?"
Zhu Yuanzhang listened to these words, and the more he listened, the more angry he became, this kind of supplementary explanation of praising him first and then cursing his descendants is better than not.
Not to mention Zhu Yuanzhang, even Queen Ma wanted to beat someone when she heard it.
No matter how merciful she is, she can't allow others to joke about his children and grandchildren, especially his Ye Qing's playful expression and tone, which is really a typical beaten look!
But after thinking about it, although this expression and tone are begging, although these words are ugly, the sentence 'rich for three generations' is really very reasonable.
Thousands of years of history is enough to prove that there is no immortal dynasty for 10,000 years, and it is good to have a national honor for 300 years.
If you are not careful, you can directly come to the second and die!
The two great unified dynasties of Great Qin and Great Sui are all typical of the second dynasty, and they are gone in less than three generations!
After Queen Ma accepted this point of view, Zhu Yuanzhang also reluctantly accepted this point of view.
Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yuanzhang asked not very happily: "Then how to put an end to the possibility of this stupid emperor in later generations?" ”
I have to say that this question really stumped Ye Qing!
He lived for ten lifetimes in ancient times, adding up to hundreds of years, and he was used to seeing the rise and fall of dynasties, and he also thought about such a question.
In the end, he only came up with two slightly more reliable solutions.
The first method is to expand indefinitely, so that the countries and regions around the Ming Dynasty, and even the whole world, are surnamed Zhu, and at the same time, reform the system of tax payment and military service.
Not to mention that it is absolutely equal to the people, but it must not be too different, there are too many privileges, so as not to squeeze the people too hard, and finally go to the end of the Zhu Ming royal family becoming a street rat.
In this way, even if the rebellion of the vassal king succeeds in the end, the dynasty is still called Daming, and the emperor is still the heir of his Zhu Yuanzhang.
Of course, even so, it can't be a real dynasty for thousands of years, at most, the national honor is greatly extended.
This method, Ye Qing remembered what he said to Master Guo in front of him.
Not only that, but he also has a separate list of items in the 'legacy note' to Zhu Yuanzhang.
As for the second method, it is to overthrow the monarchy!
As long as the emperor has the right to go his own way, the dynasty will not be able to escape the end of 'being rich for three generations', even if he uses his first method, at most he will turn 'rich but three generations' into 'rich but N generations'!
This 'N' can be ten, it can be hundred, but it can't be 'infinity' after all!
The reason is very simple, even if the generation of 'international student' Zhu Qizhen is eliminated, there is no guarantee that there will be a stupid person who is even more stupid than Zhu Qizhen?
At that time, even if Zhu Yuanzhang used the strategy of 'unlimited expansion externally and internal reform of the tax and servitude system', the emperor, who was more stupid than Zhu Qizhen, felt that it was not good, and he directly rejected it, and it was not to go to the road of dynasty change.
Therefore, there is no other way but to overthrow the feudal monarchy!
It's just that he can't say this method now, and it's not that he's afraid of offending Zhu Yuanzhang, it's just that it's useless for him to say it to this Master Guo.
Because this Master Guo would never dare to tell Zhu Yuanzhang such super rebellious words, even if he conveyed it, he would not dare to convey it, because Zhu Yuanzhang would have to be killed if he conveyed it!
If he can meet Zhu Yuanzhang one day, he will definitely say this, a sentence of 'overthrow the feudal imperial system', and he will definitely succeed in finding death!
It's just that if nothing else, he didn't have the opportunity to meet Zhu Yuanzhang!
Of course, he didn't want to have this opportunity either!
Thinking of this, Ye Qing just said flatly: "Unlimited expansion externally, internal reform of taxation and military service and other systems, vigorously reduce aristocratic privileges, and achieve the same world with the people as much as possible!" ”
"This knowledge is too deep to be clear for a while."
"After the battle, if you are still interested, if the official is happy, he can tell you."
"From now on, just be your Guo Shen General!"
As soon as the words fell, Ye Qing didn't care what Master Guo and Mrs. Guo thought in front of him, so he lay on the sand table table again, seriously being a sand table operator, and playing a game of chess for hundreds of thousands of people!
At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma also fell into contemplation again.
Regarding Ye Qing's deep words, the two also felt that there was some truth, but they still didn't have a score in their hearts.
The infinite expansion of the outside world is very easy to understand, it is nothing more than fighting everywhere in all directions, but in terms of the current national strength of the Ming Dynasty, it cannot be done at all.
Unless the financial and material resources of the entire Ming Dynasty reach the level of Yanmen County.
Thinking of this, the two of them are very husband and wife at the moment, their eyes looking at Ye Qing as if they have a plan, and even the idea of turning Ye Qing to Ying Tianfu is also the same.
Of course, this is just the result of both of them temporarily forgetting Ye Qing's good eloquence!
But in addition to the easy understanding of external expansion, they really have no idea in other aspects!
What kind of internal reform should be made of the tax and military service systems, Ye Qing did not say!
And to what extent the privileges of the nobility should be reduced, he did not say!
There is also the sentence of doing the best possible to share the world with the people, which is undoubtedly to work against the corporal doctors in the world.
How much is appropriate to let the world's corporal doctors benefit the people, and what method should be used to make the world's corporal doctors willingly benefit the people, he still didn't say!
All in all, he Ye Qing completely gave an outline of the solution, but did not give a specific solution.
The two also thought about whether Ye Qing didn't have this specific ending plan at all?
But on second thought, they immediately dismissed this conjecture!
If there is no solution, how can there be an outline of the solution?
Besides, if you don't have a heart for the country and the people, even if there is a solution, you will definitely not say a word.
You must know that the so-called 'mere seven-grade county officials' are only for the imperial court officials, and for the people on this side, he Ye Qing is a real 'county honor', and he is a real scholar class.
He was willing to say this in front of such a person who could talk to the emperor, and he also said that he was willing to say it in detail after the war, which was enough to prove that he Ye Qing was far more noble than the senior members of the court.
Thinking of this, the two glanced at each other tacitly, saying that they would wait for him Ye Qing to talk about it after the war!
Just when the two of them made up their minds, Ye Qing also issued a military order again:
"Pass my military order,"
"Let the generals of the four guards garrison of 1,000 households and above come to the mansion for a banquet in the evening."
"The standing garrison of the middle gate city wall of Yanmen Pass and the garrison will change guards, so that the standing garrison of the middle gate will go home tonight and return to the camp at five o'clock in the morning."
"The weapons and cannons of the defenders of the east and west city walls are all not moving, but the rear garrisons of the east and west two gates, as well as the trebuchet array, are all moving from the Guannei Avenue to the middle gate at night!"
"They give us the illusion that we are not mobilized, and we can also give them the illusion that we are not mobilized, which is called a tooth for a tooth!"
As soon as Ye Qing's voice fell, before they met, Master Guo and Mrs. Guo had not yet reacted, so they reminded solemnly: "Nearly a month of comfortable days, did it make you two forget your duties?" ”
"General Guo, still don't give the order?"
"Mrs. Guo, if you remember these military orders, you can also come back tomorrow morning to supplement the minutes!".
I ask for the support of the officials, and ask for the support of recommended tickets, monthly passes, and rewards, thank you!
