Chapter 54 The real master of the world
From the Anshi Rebellion to the end of the Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties for more than two hundred years, who is the real master of the world? Is it the emperor?
That's definitely not the case. The emperors in the late Tang Dynasty were worse than dogs, and the monarchs in the Five Dynasties were like revolving lanterns. They didn't look like an emperor.
Are those military envoys or generals?
Taking the three towns of Heshuo as an example, among the 170 turmoils in the feudal towns during the Guangde and Qianfu years, less than 10% were due to internal suppression by Jiedushi, 10% were due to conflicts between the central government, and the remaining 80% were all special
It's because the tooth soldiers are rebelling, so the lower ones will defeat the upper ones.
Kill those who are handsome enough, keep those who are in the center, and the rest are all tooth soldiers.
This is especially true for the Central Forbidden Army. Why were eunuchs in charge of the military in the late Tang Dynasty? Because eunuchs were obedient, not to the emperor, but to the soldiers.
Ya Bing is the real master of the world for the past two hundred years!
A boy was born in a military camp and grew up in a military camp. Ninety-nine percent of his friends from childhood to adulthood are comrades who will go into battle to kill the enemy together. A child who is a child will most likely be a middle-level general in the future. Everyone marries him.
My daughter-in-law is almost 100% a girl who grew up in the military camp. You are my brother-in-law, and I am your cousin. We all kowtow to the ground, and when we stand up, we are brothers, blood or not.
These children grew up eating and living in the military camp. The military camp has its own factory, which can produce ordnance, weave and make wine. Your mother is my aunt and your father is my uncle. So, who is in charge of us?
General, does it really matter who he is?
Who is the emperor above that general? Isn’t it even less important?
Killing the enemy on the battlefield is a meritorious service, but wearing a yellow robe is not a meritorious service? The court will reward you if you win a battle, but when the dynasty changes, will the new emperor dare not pay the reward?
Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Guangyi, and later Zhao Heng all thought about how to restrict the tooth soldiers. Historically, what they did was indeed very effective, but the price was that the army that was originally unbeatable became unbeatable.

Zhao Guangmei did not intend to correct Zhao Kuangyin's reform of the Forbidden Army, but he changed his and tried his own. His ambition was greater, hoping to deeply bind the foundation of the entire Northern Song Dynasty's rule with the interests of these soldiers.
, although it is difficult, but what if it is done?
Building a pergola is his first step.
The three of them were thoughtful for a moment after hearing this. Although they had known for a long time that Zhao Guangmei would not be able to become a military governor easily, and it was impossible for him to just build a mere awning, but they saw that he was having so much fun.
, everyone was shocked for a moment.
And the jobs he arranged for Yang Ye and Pan Mei were really what they needed most at the moment.
If someone else were to do this, it would be impossible to do it, and to be honest, it is quite taboo, but if Zhao Guangmei were to do it, it would be high, really high.
Sun Liancheng pondered for a moment, but still couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness...what are you using me for?"
I thought to myself, it’s impossible for me to be the secretary just to borrow money.
"First, I will use you to help me build the government. I will not use Jinshi or warriors to build the government. I will only use merchants. I hope you, Lao Sun, can help me contact some other people in Kaifeng City who are with you.
It’s almost like, people with business talents will be my ministers.”
"All, all use merchants?"
"Yes, with you as the leader, we all use merchants."
Sun Liancheng couldn't help but have all kinds of thoughts flashing through his mind when he heard this, but for the moment he really couldn't think of a reason. He only felt that the His Highness in front of him was really not a mortal and could not be inferred by common sense.
"Besides, at the moment, there are indeed things that I have to leave to you. First of all, it's the pergola. I plan to use this pergola as a model for the three armies and eventually promote it to the entire two divisions of the Forbidden Army. However, just pointing to the performance,
Even with the money from selling tea and the money from rewards, I’m afraid I still can’t make ends meet.”
"So, I hope that you and my future ministers can be responsible for the sponsorship. Think about it, there are more than 400,000 people in the entire Forbidden Army, including their families, even though they spend most of their time in
Military camp, but there is always time to go out for a walk. Isn’t this a good publicity opportunity?
For example, if Lao Yang has a good voice in front of the palace, your Sun Kee Silk and Satin Shop can sponsor it and let each contestant play a oral part before singing. To buy silk, go to Sun Kee or the like.
Will my silk pergola be profitable? It’s true that I’m not doing this to make money, but I can’t really lose money.”
Sun Liancheng immediately said that there was no problem at all.
In fact, regardless of the publicity effect, even if you can establish a good relationship with the soldiers, it is regarded as paying protection fees, and the businessmen of all sizes in Kaifeng will probably fight to sponsor it.
He was a smart man. He thought for a while and said, "Is it possible to do some blind date business? Since the late Tang Dynasty, communication between military households and civilian households has been almost cut off. Soldiers' sons almost only marry military girls, and military girls almost never marry."
Marrying only the sons of soldiers makes the relationship between the soldiers become more closed and stable. If this relationship can be broken, wouldn't it be more conducive to the military-civilian relationship in Kaifeng City?"
Zhao Guangmei couldn't help but praise after hearing this: "Okay, okay, this is a good idea. We can start a matchmaking business by the way, and my Qin Prince's Palace will be the matchmaker. This is a good thing, um... I will write a charter to Lao Yang later,
We might as well create another dating show called If You Are the One."
In this era, there is no saying that men and women should not be intimate with each other. The daughters of military families already live in the military camps, so who can they accept without intimacy?
In fact, this is really a good way. Sometimes, soldiers may not look down on outsiders to communicate with each other. In fact, the military camp is too closed, and they cannot contact outsiders.
The formation of the Yabing class depends on two things, one is marriage and the other is sworn worship. If the marriage can be broken, the Yagbing class will be broken by half, and the combat effectiveness of the army will not be damaged.
Talent!
At the moment, the four people had another brainstorming session. The more the other three people thought about it, the more they felt that this thing could be done. For Pan Mei and Yang Ye, they didn't want to make money anyway, and for
As for Sun Liancheng, as long as he can hug Zhao Guangmei's lap, what if he loses all his wealth?
