Chapter 1011 Central Military Academy
While thinking about this matter, Xiao Ruxun also thought of the existence of people like Li Shimin and Li Longji who destroyed the eldest son inheritance system.

But he found that it didn't matter.

Because if someone really destroys this system, then naturally they have super strength, and if they have all the super strength, what are they afraid of?

The eldest son inheritance system is actually a strength inheritance system. If you are strong enough to break the rules, then you can inherit it. No one can control you. But if you don’t have strong strength, follow this system. Be safe and sound, everyone There is a benchmark.

Stability comes first.

Therefore, in a comprehensive comparison, it is obvious that the eldest son inheritance system is more beneficial to Xiao Ruxun than the fact that it is easy to exploit loopholes and allow bureaucrats to operate.

Moreover, the eldest son inheritance system is not that there is no other than the eldest son, but that the eldest son inherits part of the family property and all the political rights and interests of the father, and the rest of the sons can still share the family property.

Of course, the most important thing is political rights.

Of course, in the era when the emperor's power is unshakable, that is, today, Xiao Ruxun can establish whoever he wants, but he doesn't want to leave hidden dangers for the inheritance of the throne for future generations.

Therefore, Xiao Ruxun still stipulated the eldest son inheritance system. From his own throne to the inheritance of the nobles below, and then to the people, everyone continued to follow the eternal rule of the eldest son inheritance system, a rule that maintains social stability.

Only the three royal families are excluded for the purpose of easy control.

Therefore, after the capital was stabilized, Xiao Ruxun ordered his eldest son, Xiao Zhenbang, to be the crown prince and the king of Qin, and set an example to the officials when he received the capital.

From then on, the ministers all knew that the emperor still followed the eldest son inheritance system, and they all felt very relaxed.

Liu Huangshang, who had always been worried about this, also relaxed.

He still remembered Xiao Ruxun's dissatisfaction with the eldest son inheritance system when he was outside the Emperor's Palace. He was always worried that if Xiao Ruxun decided to abolish the system because he was unhappy with it, would he be admonishing it or not? Advise.

Abolishing this system is definitely a stinky move. He is very worried that Xiao Ruxun will change this along with his drastic reforms and bad governance.

As a result, Xiao Ruxun appointed his eldest son as the crown prince, which stabilized everyone's hearts, as well as Liu Huangshang's.

It seems that there is still a difference between being an emperor and not being an emperor. After becoming an emperor, you will know the importance of stability.

Liu Huangshang was a little happy.

He had predicted the beginning and the end of the political storm, and he also predicted that this matter had nothing to do with him, and the subsequent development was not what he expected.

The political storm did not affect him. He was still the Minister of the Ministry of War, and under Xiao Ruxun's order, he assisted the army in the construction and preparation of the Daqin Central Military Academy.

From time to time, Xiao Ruxun also called Liu Huangshang to inspect the construction site of the Central Military Academy not far northeast of the capital.

In order to build the Central Military Academy, Xiao Ruxun ordered the recruitment of [-] soldiers and [-] refugees to build it together.

Building the outer courtyard wall of the military academy with bricks is almost like a small city. If there is a war, it can even be used as a military fortress to hold on.

The roads in the city are paved with bricks and stones, and various buildings, classrooms, offices, and student dormitories were proposed by Xiao Ruxun, and then handed over to the craftsmen for construction. Liu Huangshang is like a supervisor, who has to supervise the quality of construction, and cannot shoddy.

Xiao Ruxun's attention to this matter also made Liu Huangshang dare not neglect. Whenever he had time, he would come to the construction site to supervise, watching a small city rise from the ground, and there was even a dedicated road from the capital to this small city. , one can imagine how much Xiao Ruxun attaches great importance to this place.

After thinking about it, Xiao Ruxun learned the lesson of the previous dynasty that the civil servants were too strong and the military officials were too weak. He decided to set up a special martial arts academy while the civil servants used the academy to carry out education and inheritance. He also used education to carry out inheritance for the warriors and strengthen the warriors. Strength.

In this way, the reserve force of the warriors will also be sufficient, and the civilian officials will not be able to seize the military power of the generals by relying on their advantages in quantity and quality.

Liu Huangshang even guessed that Xiao Ruxun would also make changes to the military system. Although there is no change at the moment, everything follows the Ming system, and still adopts the method of the five armies' governor's mansion to bestow military generals, but now he has taken down Zhu Yinghuai as soon as he made a move. This approach made Liu Huangshang very suspicious.

There is no doubt that Liu Huangshang is very smart.

"This place is doing very well, so we must continue to do so. The ground must be paved with bricks and stones, and the houses must be built according to the drawings. After a good plan, the walls of this city can be up to three feet high, just like a small city. Come build."

Xiao Ruxun gave instructions to Liu Huangshang while inspecting the construction site.

Liu Huangshang said that he fully understood.

In Xiao Ruxun's view, the establishment of the Military Academy is a very important move. Once it is successfully established, not only can it obtain a steady stream of qualified military personnel, but it can also stabilize the hearts of the generals and let them know that the former commander-in-chief is now the emperor. Never mind, don't worry.

Xiao Ruxun is expected to fight again, so the generals and the army can't relax and prepare to enjoy it now.

Various trainings were still carried out in accordance with the regulations. Once a month, Xiao Ruxun came to the big troop platoon and the big drill. He personally went to the army to meet the low-level soldiers, gave them wine and meat, and let them know that the emperor always cared for them.

Xiao Ruxun's requirements for army training were higher than before, and he also invented many other training methods and equipment. At the same time, the sports competitions that started in the Zhennan Army did not stop. The four major battalions of the infantry and the two major cavalry The battalion is still going on with this kind of competition.

These sports competitions have spread from the soldiers of the Zhennan Army to the whole army. The whole army is playing this game. Almost every day, soldiers on their shifts compete with each other to prepare for the big competition once a year.

Let the army have something to do, so that the army will not be idle to do things, so that it will not be unfamiliar with the tactics of warfare, otherwise, no matter how strong the army is, it will degenerate.

"If this continues, when will the military academy be completed and put into use? How do you see the first batch of military academy enrollment?"

Xiao Ruxun asked Liu Huangshang for advice.

Liu Huangshang said: "According to my estimate, it will be put into use in half a year, and the construction is relatively complete. The facilities needed by His Majesty have been prepared. As for the enrollment of the college, His Majesty intends to recruit students from the army. Or is it facing civil recruitment of students?"

Xiao Ruxun thought for a while.

"Select young soldiers who are literate and have great military exploits from the army to enter the academy for further study, and they can also recruit young people who are willing to join the army and serve the country in the face of the people. The age is set between 24 and [-] years old. The imperial court will bear it."

Xiao Ruxun made regulations on the enrollment of the first term.
