Chapter 118 Uncle's House

"The father just sighed that the late emperor was too soft-hearted and did not use his usual life to rectify military discipline." Zhao Xu said.

This statement is fairer.

When the war comes, for example, Li Liangzuo is now constantly invading and rectifying military disciplines. If it is not done well, it will cause even worse consequences.

Therefore, it is best to rectify military discipline in peacetime. Even if there is a commotion in the army, it can be suppressed in time. In fact, as long as there is no external pressure in peacetime, there will be no commotion in the army.

If military discipline was strict, so many stories would not have happened.

"Your Highness, the best model for the country is actually eight words."

"Those eight words?"

"With both civil and military, and simplify military affairs, and simplify government affairs. Simplify government affairs, government orders will be smooth, improve efficiency, and save unnecessary expenses. Does Your Highness remember that Mr. Pang was in charge of military law in Yanzhou?"

"Know a little."

Pang Ji's military law is meant to be fierce. If someone in the army breaks the law, either breaks the limbs, cuts the limbs, splits the limbs, or beats to death. After dozens of punishments, the military discipline is intact. Who dares to break the law? Even if Song Ji comes to Pang Ji's army, he doesn't dare to come up with bad ideas.

"As soon as Mr. Pang left, the military discipline gradually became disintegrating. Why?"

"The officials in the future are soft."

"This is only the superficial reason. The main reason is that the treatment is too thin, and in fact it is not too thin. It is because their family lives in big cities and the cost is too high, so once the superiors are soft, their old ways will rekindle. Your Highness, can you remember the incident between Duke Wen and Duke Pang's decree?"

"This king also knows that he would cut 80,000 soldiers into civilians or reduce their salary by half."

"It's still too few. During the reign of Emperor Zhenzong, he dealt with the southern invasion of the Liao Kingdom and the rise of Li Jiqian, and plundered strong people as imprisoned soldiers. The number of imprisoned soldiers was only about 500,000. In the last year of Emperor Zhenzong, he successively cut it into more than 400,000. But now I heard that the country's imprisoned soldiers seemed to have 700,000."

"About sixty-nine thousand."

"How many soldiers are there?"

Zhao Xu's face was bitter, and there were nearly 500,000 soldiers.

"How can we elite soldiers be given redundant soldiers?"

"Yeah, that's a big problem."

"Elite soldiers are only one aspect. Without good generals, no matter how powerful the soldiers are, they are useless. Just like the group of soldiers who went north under Chen Qingzhi, who were really tigers and boys at the beginning? But it is not enough to have famous generals, let's see what King Ran Tian will end."

Is there no famous general in the Song Dynasty?

As long as they fought against famous generals, they came out. Zhang Kangdi Qing during the reign of Emperor Renzong of Song, Wang Shaozhangfeng and Yue Fei. But was it useful? Especially when the Northern Song Dynasty was destroyed and the Southern Song Dynasty was so dangerous, they even killed Yue Fei unjustly.

In the final analysis, it is still a matter of system.

As long as this system is reversed, names will emerge one after another.

But this system remains unchanged. Wang Anshi can accumulate more than 50 million yuan a year, and even without Sima Guang, the Song Dynasty will perish. As the weather becomes colder in the future, the Jurchens will want to go south, and Yuan Meng will also want to go south. How many waves of attacks can they resist?

The ultimate goal of Wang Anshi's reform was to strengthen the army and the country, but this system did not change, and the final result was that Xining defeated Xia and pissed this little Zhao Xu to death.

The truth is the same as what Wang Ju said about horse politics. What is the purpose of raising horses? It is for cavalry. If you don’t practice cavalry, you only know how to raise horses. If you change it all over the horse, it’s useless.

This is not as good as Emperor Wu of Han. Although he made money and did make the people suffer, he defeated the Huns, which brought peace in the north, so that the entire nation used the Han people as its name!

Zhao Xu's face was even more bitter.

Although he is still young, he knows that this is not as simple as saying. One move will cause great trouble, and he is just a prince.

"Wang Ju, don't scare King Ying." Zhao Niannu said gently.

In fact, she felt a little proud. When Wang Ju was in the future, she repeatedly said that Wang Ju was very amazing, and that her nephew believed and doubted.

But I still underestimated Wang Ju. The battle on that mountain road is amazing, but now I can't get enough.

In fact, the two were a little bit awkward, and age was not the key, at least it was better than Wei Qing. The main thing was in Shaanxi and the time was in Beijing. If the time was missed, it would be missed. Otherwise, Zhao Niannu's identity would be helpful to Wang Ju.

The first one is her princess. The prince consort of the Song Dynasty was a bit tragic. She could not be a high-ranking official if she was not a prince consort. Wang Yiyong married the fifth daughter of Emperor Taizong of Song and became the Privy Councilor for n years, but he was a mute Privy Councilor.

The main reason is that blood ties are too close, and Zhao Zhen has never had a son, Wang Yiyong can participate in the battle between the emperor and the dragon and the tiger, so he must avoid it.

However, Zhao Shu had nothing to do with several sons. Although he was Zhao Zhen's adopted son, his bloodline was separated by several generations. If someone married Zhao Niannu and was still the son-in-law, he could only be said to be a relative of the foreigner.

Why did Gao Zunyu be used, Li Xian be used, and Tong Guan be used in the late Song Dynasty. The literati did not fight well, but did not dare to use military generals to command soldiers, and what should eunuchs and relatives be used? This is still a balance, a balance for civil officials. Unfortunately, Gao Zunyu himself was not good at fighting.

Wang Juruo thought deeply that he could come up with this kind of interest. But he also had his limit on being a human being, and he had not yet thought about it.

Can those people who go back and not be scared?

Zhao Xu took a sip of tea and asked, "By the way, where is your bamboo paper?"

This thing is ridiculous and caused such a big storm, but there is no piece of bamboo paper on the market.

"That's going to be next summer, or even fall."

"So late?"

"Bamboo is widely used and has low cost, so there is a long drying process."

"You really asked those businessmen to donate 10,000 ounces of paper a year?"

"Can you kidding?"

"How could those businessmen agree?" Zhao Xu felt incredible. In his heart, businessmen were unscrupulous and used any means to make money.

"Let's help," Wang Ju moved out his theory of family and country: "I said it, and they will understand."

"that's all."

"It's not the case. The main Yanzhou merchants have no power. If they make a profit, they cannot be guaranteed. Not only that, I also asked them to win over a stock of shares and promised to give him a quarter of the profit in the future."

"So many?" Zhao Xu asked in surprise. Wang Ju didn't say anything specific, but he could have thought of it. This man took away a quarter at once, and only three-quarters were left. He had to share it with more than a dozen merchants. How could one quarter not be larger?

"Otherwise, I can't keep it, Your Highness, guess which family this person is from?"

"I can't guess this."

"It's a child of the Gao family in Mengcheng."

Zhao Niannu bent down and sneered.

"This, this..." Zhao Xu couldn't speak anymore, and he was his uncle's son!

Seeing him holding his food, Zhao Niannu finally laughed out loud.
