Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 565 Lu Xiangsheng's Thoughts
"My lord's territory is not small now, but his identity has never changed, which is really inappropriate.

If the identity of the chief soldier does not change, then the identity of the following personnel will not change either.This is still a big blow to the aggressiveness of these officials. "

Lu Xiangsheng looked at Zhao Wen and expressed his point of view.

Hearing Lu Xiangsheng's voice, Zhao Wen frowned tightly.

"My lord, there is one more important question." Lu Xiangsheng said again.

"What's the problem?" Zhao Wen looked at Lu Xiangsheng.

Lu Xiangsheng said: "People's hearts, military hearts, orthodoxy!"

"If your lord does not ascend the throne as emperor, the hearts of the people in the world will not really go to Mr. Zongbing. When Emperor Taizu Gao ascended the throne, the world was not yet peaceful, but why did Emperor Taizu Gao ascend the throne at this time?
That's because Emperor Taizu Gao understood that if he didn't ascend the throne in time, the hearts of the people in the world would not truly return.If the people do not return for a day, then everything will be like duckweed on the water.

If you don't ascend the throne as the emperor, then the established regime will not be completely stabilized.Although it seems that the soldiers and horses of the Chief Soldier are extremely powerful, no one can stop the soldiers and horses of the Chief Soldier.

However, in the eyes of the people all over the world, Mr. Zongbing is a rogue like Li Zicheng, and the people all over the world will have a very poor sense of identity with Mr. Zongbing.

Besides the morale of the army, if the commander-in-chief ascends the throne as the emperor, it will greatly improve the morale of the army.As for the detailed reasons for this, I don't say that the commander-in-chief will understand.

The last one is orthodoxy.If Master Zong Bing does not ascend the throne for a day, then Daming will always be orthodox.This matter cannot be postponed, and it cannot be delayed. The sooner one ascends the throne, the better.

Once Lord Chief Soldier takes the throne, it means that Daming has become a thing of the past, and it will take less and less time for Lord General to rule the country. "

Lu Xiangsheng's voice kept echoing in the hall, and Zhao Wen fell into deep thought when he heard Lu Xiangsheng's voice.

What Lu Xiangsheng said was not unreasonable. No matter when, as long as a regime was established, from ancient times to the present, almost no one ascended the throne after completely pacifying the world.

When Qin Shihuang ascended the throne as emperor, the south had not yet settled down.When Liu Bang ascended the throne as emperor, the world had not yet settled down.

Later, Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, and Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty almost all became emperors when the world was not completely settled.

When Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, the Qianyuan forces in the north were still there, and most of them were not calmed down.

Hong Chengchou looked at Lu Xiangsheng and narrowed his eyes.

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it, Lu Jiandou, Lu Jiandou, if you don't make a show, you will be a blockbuster. I have been in Xuanzhen for such a long time, and I dare not say such words to Mr. Zongbing , you are fine, within a few days of coming here, you did what I wanted to do but didn't dare to do."

Hong Chengchou kept sighing in his heart, he never thought that Lu Xiangsheng would dare to persuade Zhao Wen to become emperor at such a time.

Lu Xiangsheng's character is Jiandou. In ancient times, people of the same age were called, and people of the same generation basically called him by the same name.

Liu Wenzhong also didn't expect that Lu Xiangsheng would say such a thing at this time. He looked at Lu Xiangsheng in front of him, as if he knew Lu Xiangsheng for the first time.

The reason why Lu Xiangsheng persuaded Zhao Wen to become emperor at this time was actually his own petty thinking.

It was a bit embarrassing for Lu Xiangsheng to come to Xuanzhen at this time.

Lu Xiangsheng understood that when he came to Xuanzhen at this time, he hadn't accomplished an inch of merit. Even if Zhao Wen was willing to reuse him, the people below would definitely not be convinced.

Zhao Wen's strength can overwhelm the entire Ming Dynasty, and the new dynasty is about to be established. If he can't make contributions, his position will be very embarrassing after the new dynasty is established.

Therefore, Lu Xiangsheng wanted to take advantage of this time to persuade Zhao Wen to join him, and no matter what, he should make some contributions first.

In ancient times, Conglong's contribution was considered a considerable achievement.

"My lord, after Shaanxi and Henan are captured, Sichuan and Huguang will definitely not last long.

At this time, the position of Chief Soldier is no longer worthy of your lord.Moreover, this position was given by the Ming court. If your lord does not ascend the throne as emperor for a day, then your lord will be a rebel minister for a day.

Your Excellency may not feel anything, but you should also think about these civil and military officials and common people under your command.

No matter what he does, this person with a bad name doesn't have the confidence to do so. "

Not to be outdone, Hong Chengchou hurriedly stood up and spoke to Zhao Wen.

"Yes, my lord, it's time to become emperor and establish a political power." Liu Wenzhong also stood up.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became strange.

Zhao Wen didn't express his attitude. He didn't say anything. He just looked at these three people, waved his hands at them, and took a deep breath, "Go down first!"

Looking at Zhao Wen's posture, the three of them could guess what Zhao Wen was thinking right now.

If in the past, they said such things in front of Zhao Wen, Zhao Wen would definitely stop them directly.

But this time it didn't happen, what does it mean?This means that Zhao Wen already has this idea in his heart!

"I will take my leave!"

The three held back the excitement in their hearts, and then retreated.

After the three of them walked out of the Commander's Mansion, Hong Chengchou bowed his hands to Lu Xiangsheng with a smile on his face, "I really didn't expect Brother Lu to have such courage and dare to persuade Lord Commander in at this time!"

"Damn, why are you so timid? Don't you think that the position of chief soldier is no longer worthy of the status of chief soldier?
You can think about it, if the position of the Chief Soldier cannot be promoted, then the positions of the Chief Soldier's subordinates cannot be promoted either.

The civil servants are fine, after all, what has changed is only a title, the management is about the same, the military achievements are few, the promotions are not frequent, and the influence is not great.

But those military generals are different. I investigated in Xuanzhen before, and some hundred households could be promoted to thousand households, but because the status of the commander-in-chief was not promoted, these hundred households can only be a hundred households.

If a hundred households are promoted to a thousand households, then the thousand households will be promoted further, and if the thousand households are promoted, the generals above the thousand households must also be promoted.

In the end, the generals will also be promoted.But what will these participants be promoted to?Lieutenant General?If they are promoted to the general soldier, what will the general soldier do?
Zhao Daniu, Song Hu, and the others already have tens of thousands of soldiers. Do you think the position of general can do it?
If the commander-in-chief doesn't get promoted, these people won't be able to get promoted.One radish and one hole, these things cannot be changed.

These generals have been with the commander-in-chief for a long time, so they may not have any complaints in their hearts.What about the hundreds of households, general banners, and small banner officials below?
Are they still going to be promoted?Without promotion, they will definitely not say anything in a short period of time, but what about after a long time?How big is the land?
At that time, they will definitely have complaints in their hearts, and the family members of these people are basically in Xuanzhen. If it gets out, their family members will think that the commander-in-chief is unwilling to promote them and suppress them.

This will definitely have an impact on the reputation and prestige of the Chief Soldier.

But if they were promoted, what promotion would they be given?How could they go up if they didn't move on the top?
Is it possible to expand the number of participating generals?This is even more impossible. Today's generals are basically the old men of the chief soldier, and they are all just generals. If the people behind are promoted to generals, what will Zhao Daniu, Song Hu and the others think?
Originally, I was still your superior, and you still had to obey my orders, but with a turn of your head, you will be on the same level as me, and you will directly obey the orders of the Chief Soldier.Do you think this is appropriate?Will they not have complaints in their hearts?
Also, as far as I know, Datong General Soldier Man Gui and now Mao Wenlong in Far East Town are both General Soldier positions.And the position of the commander-in-chief is also the commander-in-chief, do you think this is appropriate? "

As expected of a capable person, Lu Xiangsheng has been able to figure out these problems clearly in the short time since he came to Xuanzhen.

"But why didn't you tell Mr. General Bing just now?" Hong Chengchou looked at Lu Xiangsheng with a puzzled expression. He couldn't understand why Lu Xiangsheng didn't tell Zhao Wen just now.

"Brother Hong, do you think it's appropriate for me to say these things to Mr. Zongbing? We can only point out one or two of these things, and let Mr. Zongbing think about it for himself. We must never say it clearly.

When I say this in front of the Chief Soldier, isn’t it just to tell the Chief Soldier, Sir, these generals and soldiers under you have long been looking forward to your enthronement and proclaiming the emperor. If you do not ascend the throne and proclaim the emperor, these generals and soldiers will definitely complain.

Do you think it's okay for me to say that?Isn't this provoking the relationship between the commander-in-chief and the general in front of the commander-in-chief?I can't afford this crime. Lu Xiangsheng looked at Hong Chengchou, lowered his voice, and said to Hong Chengchou and Liu Wenzhong.

Liu Wenzhong listened to Lu Xiangsheng's words, and kept nodding, "You are right, we must never tell the commander-in-chief about these things. Zhao Daniu, Song Hu and the others followed the adults earlier than me. Back then, Zhao Daniu, Song Hu, and the others were in the same pot as Mr. Zongbing, and Zhao Daniu and Song Hu had once rescued Mr. Zongbing.

Zhao Daniu and the others are very loyal to the Chief Soldier, and the Chief Soldier also trusts them very much.Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to stay in Shanxi with their soldiers and horses, and the commander-in-chief would come back by himself.

So, we must never tell the Chief Soldier about this matter, we can only let the Chief Soldier think about it himself! "

"As for today's news, I think we should pass it on first. The Chief Soldier didn't let us pass it on just now, so let's spread it first.

At that time, generals like Zhao Daniu will definitely be more active than us. Once these people are active, the commander-in-chief will naturally think of this. Hong Chengchou looked at the two of them and said in a low voice.

"Yes, you are right!" Liu Wenzhong clapped his hands together and replied in affirmation.

The three of them walked towards the distance while talking.

When the sun set on the western mountain, all the civil and military officials in Xuan Town knew what happened today.

A few days ago, Zhao Daniu, Song Hu, Liu Wu, Wang Qi and the others returned to Xuanzhen. After meeting with Zhao Wen, they stayed at home, either having children or drinking with friends.

Originally, they had already discussed that they planned to go to the General Military Mansion together during the Spring Festival to meet Zhao Wen and send a congratulatory form.

But when the news about Lu Xiangsheng's persuasion to join Zhao Wen spread this morning, these people couldn't bear it anymore and gathered together in advance.

In the study room of Zhao Daniu's home, there was a round table. Zhao Daniu, Song Hu, Liu Wu and the others were sitting around the table, talking about this matter.

Zhao Daniu originally planned to find Wang Qi and Li Xiaosan together, but after thinking about it, he gave up this idea.

Since Wang Qi was transferred away by Zhao Wen, they seldom saw Wang Qi again. Even if they did, Wang Qi was gloomy, and his whole body was like ice in an ice cellar. Zhao Daniu felt that they and Wang Qi Between them, the feeling they had at the beginning has long since disappeared, and they really can't get along.

As for Li Xiaosan, now he is with Zhao Wen, he is the commander of Zhao Wen's guards, and he lives in the general's mansion. Even if he calls at this time, he can't come.

So, now Zhao Daniu is only called Song Hu and Liu Wu.

Zhao Daniu is a rough man. Although he set up a study room, it is just a show, and the study room is rarely used.

Originally, Zhao Daniu planned to discuss this matter in the hall, but thought that the hall was too big to be suitable for talking, so he set the place in the study.

Zhao Daniu sat on the main seat, he looked at the people at the table, and said with a smile: "Today, this man named Lu Xiangsheng is quite discerning, our Lord Chief Soldier should have ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor a long time ago."

"Hey, don't tell me, I think so too. If Mr. Zong Bing is not enthroned and proclaimed emperor for a day, our positions will not change. Our positions will not change, and the positions of the people below will not change.

You don't know, some of my subordinates have been working for three or four years, but it is because the position of the commander-in-chief cannot be promoted, and our position cannot be promoted, so their positions cannot be promoted. "Song Hu looked at Zhao Daniu and Liu Wu and whispered.

Compared with Zhao Daniu, Song Hu's mind is much more delicate than Zhao Daniu's, and he can find many problems that Zhao Daniu can't.

Liu Wudao: "You are right. Even if our position remains the same, we will definitely not say anything. After all, we were in the same pot as the commander-in-chief. But the officers and soldiers below us are different. Soldiers are nothing more than full stomachs and high officials.

Now because the position of the commander-in-chief remains unchanged, they have no way to be promoted.Although they don't say it, but I can feel it. "

"Yeah, actually. I also think that the Chief Soldier should be enthroned and proclaimed emperor. Let alone us, the position of Chief Soldier is too embarrassing given that we have enough land in our hands now.

Shanxi Xuanzhen Grassland Nuer Gandusi, after the Chinese New Year, Shaanxi and Henan will also be won in a few months.If Mr. Chief Soldier can't go up all the time, it really can't be justified! "Zhao Daniu let out a long breath and said.
