Chapter 115: The Coral Tree

"Exactly.

Separated the power to command and transfer troops, and then stripped off the responsibility of supplying grain and grass and military supplies, isn't he a cavalry leader?

If a general has two hearts, His Majesty can take away their soldiers and horses with a holy decree.

Just as the string of a kite is tightened, no matter how far and high the kite flies, it must fall back into my hands. ”

She said crisply, word by word, indestructible.

"What you mean is that the right to transfer and send troops belongs to the imperial court, and the affairs of raising and training troops are entrusted to the generals with confidence."

Liu Ji sat crookedly on the edge of the couch, completely ignoring half of his body hanging outside the couch and shaking, and unconsciously muttered the little abacus in his heart,

"This can prevent the dictatorship of the generals, but if you take this step, the future generations will be full of money, and they will inevitably scold me for being suspicious and intolerant, hum.

Then I might as well go one level further, and I won't be in vain.

Simply, let the garrisons in various places change their garrisons every few years, and rotate inside and outside, but the generals do not move, so that the soldiers are impermanent and the soldiers are impermanent.

In the long run, the idea of self-respect of the generals has been completely eliminated. ”

Zong Lu Pheasant had a full understanding of the Lord of the Eternal Male Guess in front of her, but Liu Ji proposed a more strategic strategy without thinking, which was still greatly unexpected by her.

Unexpectedly, he was so suspicious, Lu Pheasant was stunned for a moment, and said euphemistically tentatively,

"The move of the generals to change the soldiers is indeed to prevent a drop of water.

However, if the soldiers do not know the generals and the generals do not know the soldiers, it will certainly greatly weaken the combat strength of the army. ”

"Alas, too.

It's really troublesome, it's better to kill them all, it's the most worry-free, haha, haha. ”

Liu Ji's green tendons jumped a few times on his forehead, he pursed his mouth tightly, his face became even more dry, and he embarrassedly squeezed out a few fake smiles from between his teeth.

***

This is not a joke, Lu Pheasant knows that getting rid of all the people who are threatening is the truest thought in his heart;

And his criterion for judging "threat" seems to be regardless of his heart or deeds, but only his ability.

Emperor Buyi, the blue wisps of the road, knocked out his teeth and swallowed blood, Fang walked to Luoyang step by step, only by firmly holding the throne, can he be worthy of his scheming for half his life.

The first difficulty facing the founding emperors of all dynasties was how to recover military power. Needless to say, between Liu Ji and the princes and kings, there is still a gap between the pursuit of "great unification".

She sighed softly, the emperor is not old and decrepit to the point of complete decentralization, besides, with his temper, he is afraid that the older he gets, the more suspicious he becomes, the older he gets, the more violent he becomes, and gradually, in the whole world, he can only trust the dead.

In the last life, you waited for almost fifty years to really become the emperor, she comforted herself in her heart and said, in this life, everything is too early, you are still young.

She blinked, sat down beside Liu Ji gently, preached and was patiently persuaded by karma, and followed by good persuasion,

"The word 'all killed' is easy to say, but can Your Majesty really kill them?

Moreover, if there is a war in the future, whether it is internal strife or external worries, who do you want your children and grandchildren to count on? ”

This is the lesson that countless emperors have exchanged for blood for 900 years, and it is also the sincere advice of one overlord to another.

Liu Ji raised his eyes, his gaze wandering and confused, "Isn't it useless to kill?" ”

"Murder alone does not bring faithfulness.

The so-called loyal ministers rely on education, deterrence, and system to regulate. ”

The tenacity and fortitude in Lu Pheasant's tone, the stars have changed, and they have never changed.

***

"Even if, according to what you said, the power to command and transfer troops is separated, if it is to be truly implemented, it is necessary to start from the central bureaucratic system, and unify the military power of all places back to the jurisdiction and deployment of the imperial court.

It is not an easy task to collect military power......"

This is a pioneering move that has never been done before, but after careful thinking, but hidden subtlety in the abrupt and bizarre, Liu Ji sat for a long time, and no longer paid attention to the queen beside him, only got up and walked out of the hall.

She reminded behind her, "Don't forget to go to Qi Ji's." ”

Liu Ji waved his hand and didn't look back,

"Don't go, don't go, I'll go to Xiao He's Mansion to discuss matters."

Looking at his back as he left in a hurry, Lu Pheasant's eyes flashed with mixed feelings.

This is not a whim of her today, but an important task that she has been thinking about day and night since her previous life:

At that time, the Tang Dynasty was in the beginning of its development, and the hidden dangers of the tail had begun to appear, and the local festivals made the integration of military administration, civil affairs, and financial power, and their power increased day by day, and they could faintly foresee the catastrophe in the future.

She is exhausted, and she is always trying to find ways to restrain her. It's a pity that she only had time to break through the general outline of this "division of military power" in her old age, but she didn't have time to really put the grand plan in her mind into practice.

Lu Pheasant walked slowly to the outside of the hall and looked up at the vast night.

The cold wind of the winter night hit her cheeks solidly, it was so cold that it hurt, but it was extremely realβ€”

Thank God for mercy, the regret of her powerlessness in the previous life, and the mistakes of a hundred secrets, may have time to make up for them one by one.

***

The South Vietnamese gifts sent by Wu Chen, the king of Changsha, are really better than seeing them.

The red and purple coral tree alone, more than a foot high, is neither stone nor qiong, looking like a flowerless and leafless tree, and like a red fire, shining with ethereal light in the dark hall.

"I heard that this object is extremely difficult to pick, and it takes several experienced dΓ n family members to dive to the bottom of the sea, two of whom are responsible for sawing the coral, and a few others from the floating boat to pull the coral branches up.

If you are not careful, the boat capsizes, and several lives are in vain.

The South Vietnamese aristocracy loves to compare, and the size of the indoor corals is used to show their status, so the single coral collection does not know how many South Vietnamese civilians are killed in vain every year. ”

Xiao He stood far away from the coral tree, frowned, and introduced with a little disgust.

"Tsk, such a useless thing that costs the people and money, tell Wu Chen, for all the people of Changsha, they are not allowed to mine or sacrifice in the future, and those who violate the city will be chōng."

Liu Jizheng watched with curiosity, and after listening to Xiao He's words, he couldn't help but hang down the hand that was originally stroking the coral tree, and muttered at the corner of his mouth,

"We don't care what they South Vietnamese like, it's just that the big and small officials of our Han are not allowed to learn this broken problem."

Lu Pheasant, who was watching coldly, secretly thought that Wu Chen was shrewd and respectful, knowing that this was definitely not something that people and ministers could bear, and he transferred it to Beijing non-stop.

Otherwise, Liu Ji didn't know what to think.

He paced over to a lacquer inspector again, reached out and picked up a dark red hard-shelled fruit that was still hanging from the short branch, and played, and asked,

"Is this a detachment?

Oh, by the way, have all the officials of Changsha settled down?

They escorted such a behemoth thousands of miles over, and they still wanted to be rewarded. ”

"After settling down, I stayed in the county residence of Changsha State.

The envoy sent by Changsha to escort the coral this time was the official of the plan, and he also sent a lot of his own tribute. ”

In order to meet the first plan, Xiao He repaired and expanded the county residences of various counties in Luoyang early, even if hundreds of people from all over the country came in one go, and no matter how much Tugong was contributed, they could be accommodated.
