The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 505 Only One Emperor

Penglai refugee area.

In a simple wooden house, the firewood in the brazier was burning vigorously. There were many gaps in the walls, and the cold air kept pouring in. People who were far away from the brazier did not feel the warmth.

In the small wooden house, more than a dozen young people wore cotton caps and cotton jackets, just like the clothes of ordinary people. Although their bodies were simple, they were meticulous from head to toe.

On the long wooden table, neatly placed cups, the hot water in the cups had already cooled down, the younger students sitting in two rows, their backs straight and motionless.

"Longshan Camp asked the court to organize and train the new army, and got the support of King Zhongshun. The court has agreed to start training the new army at the beginning of the year."

Yang Chun looked at the children of the military academy in front of him, and gave them a solemn reminder.

He is an instructor of the military academy, and he was tired of staying in the school for many years. After many applications, he was finally approved last year and became the chief officer of Jinzhou to recruit refugees in Denglai.

Adjust measures to local conditions.

He also proposed to use military academy graduates to maintain order in the Denglei refugee area.

The situation in the refugee areas of Denglei is complicated, and the attitudes of the government are different. It is very suitable for military school graduates to hone here.

The military academy sent two batches of military academy graduates before and after, with a scale of nearly 50 people, and now there are only a dozen or so left.

Although he obtained military status, he did not wear military uniforms and was not equipped with weapons. He mixed with the refugees and formed the default rules of the two places.

"This matter has become unstoppable. Our current task is still to organize the displaced people to facilitate the management of the rear. Everyone should not act rashly."

Military academies are unique to the Golden State.

If it is placed in the country, it is bound to be impossible, and the gentry everywhere will oppose it, and it will involve the whole country.

Even in the original Liaodong, even with the prestige of a general, it is impossible to do.

But the general has his day.

The barbarians wiped out all the big gentry families in Liaodong, and the lower-level scholars had no roots, so the generals could easily build military schools.

Military cadets have force, but it is difficult to control it.Compared with domestic government and private school students, Jinzhou military school students are not weaker than domestic students in terms of arrogance, and they are more daring.

There are more and more military cadets.

The style of work is also becoming more and more subdivided, but more and more military school students value martial arts over literature.

Jinjiang Town's martial arts are excellent, and the military school has a military character. The students naturally admire force, and think that the truth can only be told to their own family, and what is needed for outsiders is prestige.

really.

"No."

A young man stood up with a "swish".

Standing up and condescending, his sharp eyes swept over everyone, but the young people who were sitting were used to it.

"They cannot be allowed to train new troops."

"Ma Dingguo, sit down and talk."

Yang Chun said with a headache,
Everyone has different ideas and cognitions. Although they study in the same school, it is like no leaf in the world is exactly the same.

Yang Chun, who has been an instructor for five or six years, has a very clear understanding of this.

If you are a traditional soldier, you can just obey, but military students are different. Their military discipline is extremely strict, and it has reached the point of abnormality.

Because of this atmosphere, people are proud of pursuing high military discipline, but there are advantages and disadvantages, and the thinking of military school graduates is unconstrained.

Ma Dingguo did not back down.

In school, no student is not afraid of Instructor Yang.But he is no longer a student, but a soldier.

"There is only one emperor."

His words ignited the powder keg, and the rest of the people did not move, but turned their heads to Ma Dingguo, giving him support with their eyes.

"That's our general."

Yang Chun frowned, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

It's all the ethos instilled in the military academy. The students in the military academy are eloquent and like to hit the nail on the head, making it impossible to refute.

Block others with words first, and suppress the momentum of the other party.

"We will definitely enter the customs. If the three major battalions are allowed to train new troops, it will bring us heavy casualties in the future."

How to train new troops?

According to inquiries a few months ago, although it was proposed by Longshan Daying, many people in the imperial court opposed it, and many people supported it.

The enlightened officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty believed that missionaries should be combined with the military system of the Jinjiang Army, military craftsmen from all over the country should be assembled, and firearms and artillery troops should be compiled and trained.

The Jinjiang army developed field artillery, and Dazhou can also manufacture it.

According to the official.

The firearm configuration of the new army is more equipped and sharper than that of the Jin Jiang army.

Ma Dingguo was not afraid of the so-called new army, but watching the formation of the new army that the official said under his nose, in his judgment, it would pose a considerable threat to the Jin Jiang army.

The many disadvantages of the Great Zhou are due to the officials, but not because of the national strength of the Great Zhou.

The national power of the Great Zhou is there.

But whether or not it can be brought out, or even held back by its own people, is ten times and a hundred times higher than that of the enemy, it is a human problem.

People's problems, not national problems.

Regarding domestic subjects, the school has many courses, and after years of deduction, this consensus has been reached.

The domestic national strength is still unshakable, and it is far from comparable to Jinjiang Town.

However, due to human factors, the national power cannot be exerted, and only less than [-]% of the power can be exerted.

Even with this [-]% strength, Jin Jiang's army did not dare to move lightly.

The preparation and training of the new army itself is to exert the national strength of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it is a new thing. After forming the army, it has played a role. Will it lead to more and more changes in the military system?

Ma Dingguo firmly believes that this matter will not be let go.

As for the refugee army.

Ma Dingguo believed that with the strength of the refugee army, it was impossible to overthrow the Dazhou Sheji. Instead, after the war, the refugee army was pacified, and domestic conflicts were suppressed instead.

Although the national power is lost, it can exert more power.

Da Zhou, who defeated the refugee army, although the place is dilapidated, it also represents a new life and the strengthening of the imperial court.

Yang Chun knew Ma Dingguo's temperament, so he didn't intend to persuade him.

"This is an order."

Ma Dingguo looked at Yang Chun, and did not back down because of his identity.

if on the battlefield.

When the military order is issued, even if it is a wrong military order, he will move forward unswervingly, but he thinks it is different now.

"The military commander made a mistake, and the general was deceived."

"presumptuous!"

Yang Chun scolded.

He is an instructor, and the people in front of him are all his students. He is very tolerant towards the students, but when the general is involved, his expression becomes serious.

Ma Dingguo's father is Ma Xuan.

He didn't know Ma Xuan, but Chen Kaiwu sent this son to study in the military school, from the age of eight to 16, and trained in Denglai for two years, and now.

He is not a child of Jin Jiangjun, nor is he related to Chen Kaiwu, so he paid more attention and learned about his origin.

His father fought for his country and died among the barbarians.

And Ma Dingguo, instead of adhering to his father's will, became one of the toughest and most determined students with a domestic attitude.

"It is precisely because of Feng Shengzhi's existence that the general dare not move lightly. He opposed the general's entry back then, so the general made a wrong decision."

Ma Dingguo ignored Yang Chun's gaze, but looked at his classmates.

"The general is benevolent, and he didn't want to cause the domestic people to be displaced because of the general's entry into the customs, and countless people were killed in the war."

"but."

Ma Dingguo raised his voice.

"The imperial court did not do anything to us because he was not strong enough at the moment, not because the imperial court had goodwill towards us."

"The day the imperial court solves the refugee army, it will be the time to deal with our Jinjiang Town."

"The war resulted in the deaths of countless civilians, and the accumulated disadvantages caused by the annexation of land in the country dissipated. However, the years of war created more than [-] or hundreds of thousands of veterans for the imperial court."

"If we train a new army and promote it after success, not only will we lose the opportunity to enter the customs, but we will also lose our hometown."

"Those of us have worked hard for more than ten years to build the most superior Jinjiang Town because of the existence of the general."

Ma Dingguo looked at the eyes of each of his comrades-in-arms, seeking support from them.

"The general loves the people like a son. Only he is qualified to be the emperor. It is because of the love for the people that the general should enter the customs as soon as possible."

"We should jointly write a letter to the general, and we should take the initiative to participate instead of adopting a policy of calming the country."

"At the beginning, Feng Shengzhi and others opposed the general's entry, we should speak out and let the general know that more people support the general's entry."

"I agree."

One rose to support.

The rest of the people stood up one after another and supported Ma Dingguo.

"You guys are messing around, isn't this at school, have you thought about the consequences of being impulsive?" Yang Chun was anxious.

Not for themselves, but worried about their behavior.

"Instructor."

Ma Dingguo finally regained his respectful eyes and spoke calmly.

"We're not for ourselves."

……

West Liaoning.

King Zhongshun looked at Tumen apologetically.

He is the emperor's uncle and the pillar of the emperor's own administration. Although he has disagreements with his nephew, the emperor, he still holds great power and has unparalleled prestige.

Tumen is just an ordinary general, who is dispensable to King Zhongshun.

Feeling King Zhongshun's heart, Tumen was only moved.

The big revenge has not been reported.

As the king of Zhongshun, caring so much about himself and dying for his confidant is also the reason why Tumen has been loyal all these years.

King Zhongshun's ability to control the Liaoxi Army is definitely not just because of his status.

He was in Liaoxi, which was also the time when the imperial court had the strongest influence on Liaoxi. In Liaoxi, where people were very popular at the beginning, many people secretly took refuge in the Jinjiang army.

King Zhongshun not only stabilized the situation, but also won people's hearts back. His personal charm convinced many people.

"Pity."

King Zhongshun sighed.

He had been in Liaoxi for too long, and the courtiers did not trust him. The emperor listened to the ministers and wanted to transfer him away from Liaoxi.

The situation in western Liaoning is stable, and he thinks that he is not needed as King Zhongshun, so he can send a new successor.

But that's fine.

Longshan Daying, which coincided with some officials, proposed to train the new army, which was very in line with his ideas, so he went up to support it.

The three camps still have a lot to do.

The Liaoxi Army, the Shanhaiguan Army, and the three major battalions, combined with the advantageous geographical location, just formed a solid line of defense that can withstand the Jinjiang Army.

"The Liaoxi Army was originally a veteran veteran. Due to the accumulated malpractices in the army, its combat power was low. First, because of the prince's many years of governance, the entire army's combat power was strong and it was more than enough to protect itself."

Tumen said with a smile, deeply buried his hatred for Jia's mansion in his heart.

Even if he lives for hatred, he also works hard for the loyal and obedient king.

"There are more than [-] soldiers in the three major battalions. You only need to give the prince three years to build a few more strong troops."

Tumen said confidently.

"Only the matter of training the new army, the prince needs to be careful."

"Why?"

King Zhongshun wondered.

Tumen explained: "With the ethos of domestic officials, if there is no external force, such new things will inevitably come to nothing, tangible but intangible."

Since King Zhongshun employs people, he will not doubt him.

Whether it's Tumen, Cheng Zhixin, or the two brothers Yue Tuo and Shuo Tuo.

Under the suppression of the Supreme Emperor, King Zhongshun did not have many cronies in his pocket, and the current cronies are all outsiders.

Tumen is the original guard, not his person.

Cheng Zhixin was promoted by Wei Yi, while Yue Tuo and Shuo Tuo were from barbarians.

But these people are loyal to King Zhongshun.

"You reminded me well."

King Zhongshun thought for a moment, and soon came up with an idea.

"I decided to ask the imperial court to send someone to take charge of the new army's affairs. Are you willing to go out?"

"The last general must live up to the trust of the prince."

Tumen didn't hesitate.

"it is good."

King Zhongshun nodded in satisfaction.

Back then, he had no one in his hands, and he needed to maintain everything independently. Now he has a lot of talents under his command, which is also his confidence to deal with the Jin Jiang army.

……

Beijing.

The emperor summoned Feng He and other officials to inquire about the situation in Sichuan.

The war in Sichuan has affected the nerves of the imperial court, and most of the eyes have fallen on Sichuan.

The post station in Shaanxi has collapsed, but the post station in Shanxi and Henan can still be used with all their strength, delivering news to the capital continuously.

Feng He's qualifications are not high, but he works diligently and has been recognized by many people. Of course, many people think that he can't be brave enough to do things and has no courage.

but no matter.

With his efforts, Da Zhou, a huge ship, was still driving slowly on the ocean, and the splash of water could overturn the surrounding small boats.

"The military reports everywhere are chaotic and contradictory, but after the integration of the Ministry of War, a situation of encircling the bandits has been formed. Within a few months, the bandits will be wiped out."

The emperor was noncommittal.

Shaanxi has also been encircled, but in the end it was not a failure.

"I hope so."

The emperor changed the subject and asked about what King Zhongshun had mentioned.

"No."

Feng He objected.

He has read King Zhongshun's memorial, and understands King Zhongshun's thoughts, and wants to seize military power from the civil servants.

King Zhongshun was difficult to deal with.

Because of the opponent's identity, he could only take it slowly, first transferred from Liaoxi to the three major camps, and then continued to deal with King Zhongshun after arriving at the three major camps.

This is the best policy, otherwise if you want to defeat King Zhongshun in one step, you will burn yourself and fail.

The emperor frowned.

He knows what the officials think, and he supports the act of gathering military power, which should have been attributed to the court.

It's just that King Zhongshun is no one else.

"King Zhongshun has been in charge of Liaoxi for many years, and it is the current situation. The sudden transfer of King Zhongshun makes me feel uneasy."

"I agree with King Zhongshun on this matter."

"emperor."

Feng He didn't want to give up, but unfortunately the emperor's attitude was firm and his character was soft, so he didn't insist on his idea in the end.

His retreat made more people dissatisfied.
