Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 468 Li Changsheng's Ambition
Li Changsheng took a deep breath and said, "I heard that sir, transfer Li Taiwei and Shangguan Taiwei to the south to reorganize the navy."

Wang Xiu looked at Li Changsheng in surprise, seemed to understand a little bit, and said with a smile: "They really want to rebuild the Great Song Navy, um, they should create a real navy."

Li Changsheng looked excited, his eyes sparkled, and he said loudly, "Mister, do you intend to go abroad?"

Wang Xiu was startled, then smiled and said, "I can't see that you still have such ambitions, tell me about it."

Li Changsheng's eyes were firm, and he said resolutely: "Back then, Mr. initiated the maritime case and established an armed sea fleet. I recalled Mr.'s daily teachings and read through the book "Miscellaneous Talks Outside the Territory" written by him. Only then did I realize that Mr. is interested in the South China Sea. The two captains Going south to reorganize the navy is not limited to overseas trade, and the training of the navy must have deep meaning."

Wang Xiu gritted her teeth, knowing that Li Changsheng was interested in the army, but who would have thought that this guy would choose the navy, a sudden excitement in her heart, and an eager light flashed in her eyes, staring at Li Changsheng closely, waiting for him afterward.

"Nowadays, the country is in troubled times. I am lucky enough to be at the top of Longfei's list. I would like to serve as the number one scholar to show my martial arts virtues and set an example for scholars all over the world." Li Changsheng said, looking up at Wang Xiu, his eyes were full of determination.

Wang Xiu frowned, and looked at Li Changsheng seriously. The advanced awareness of civil and military equality is very valuable, especially for a champion, who is also a champion of both civil and martial arts, the absolute first in history.Li Changsheng's performance is indeed both civil and military. If Feng Yuan can become a commander in chief, Li Changsheng is definitely a Confucian general.

However, Li Changsheng was the number one scholar after all, the number one scholar of Enke in the first year of Dazhong Jianyan, the object of admiration and envy of many scholars.Once he throws his pen into the army, the storm that will be created in the government and the public will never be inferior to the Jin army's attack again. The resistance of the ministers, the contempt and criticism of the scholars, he can't imagine whether Li Changsheng can hold on.

He decided to test Li Changsheng again, whether it was a whim or a decision, he said softly: "The general has a rich salary but low courtesy, and the second elder brother is the champion of the new department. Even if he doesn't enter the two houses, he can still be ranked as a minister!"

Li Changsheng was full of enthusiasm, but he didn't understand what Wang Xiu meant. He thought that Wang Xiu didn't want him to join the army, so he couldn't help being shocked, and said loudly: "Mr. Invasion, great rivers and mountains fell, people of my generation should work hard, wield their weapons, show martial virtues, and not let the great rivers and mountains be stained with fishy smell for a long time. You can sit down and talk about the Tao, and use pedantic theories to discourage the captives. Mr. often said that the world is peaceful, Both civil and military must be driven."

"Mr. reorganizes the navy and intends to go overseas. I have made up my mind. I am willing to set an example for aspiring scholars in the world. A good man can serve the country in the army and serve in the battlefield."

Wang Xiu admired it secretly, but said plainly: "Second Brother wants to go south with them?"

"Exactly, a good man's ambition is thousands of miles away, to expand the territory to gain fame, to be a 'Bo Wanghou' in the South China Sea, even if the sky is not beautiful, he still has to be shrouded in horse leather, it is a worthwhile life!"

Wang Xiu listened quietly, and gradually affirmed that Li Changsheng was deliberate, and it was not a sudden act.Of course, personal ambitions are hidden behind the principle of aspiring to join the army. Just ask, who does things without purpose?Only those who have ambition will have motivation. The society is short of people without ambition, and it is simply a stagnant pool.

It is indeed an honor to be the number one scholar to become an official. The No. 20 prose official No. [-] is from the eighth-rank Xuanjiao Lang, who is appointed as an official in Dali to judge affairs. After a few years, he can be transferred to Zuo Lang, or a Dazhou general judge or professor. If he is lucky, he can enter the museum It can be said that it is the most enviable starting point of promotion for scholars.

However, how many champions can stand out and make a big career?Li Changsheng is not a person who can govern with peace of mind. Among many outstanding figures, it is difficult for him to make a difference.

It has to be said that Li Changsheng has foresight, and scholars in the Song Dynasty generally disdain to serve in the army, and there are very few literati who joined the army.Orihiko who was killed counts as half, and Gao Ping counts as one. Feng Yuan's meritorious service in the military examination will be valued by the army, but it may not be recognized by the scholars. The number one scholar.

"Why did the second brother choose the navy instead of the horse army?" Wang Xiu tested Li Changsheng's mind for the last time.

"North and South peace negotiations, it is very difficult to have a big war within ten years, even if there is a war, there will be a gathering of stars. The hope of the imperial court's rise lies in the sea, operating overseas to gain the benefits of overseas countries, recharging their strength and recharging their strengths, it is shameful to choose to join The reason for the navy."

Wang Xiu understood Li Changsheng's thoughts. With Song's national policy of recuperation and Yanbian's defensive position, there are not many opportunities for the Mabu Army to make great achievements.Moreover, seniority ranking has become a common practice, and it is obviously better to stay in the ranks of civil servants if you go there to get a share.According to his established strategy, Da Song will inevitably form a powerful navy fleet when he operates overseas. The trend of the navy's own army may not be impossible to realize.

It has to be said that Li Changsheng has a strategic vision. Li Bao and Shangguanqian were ordered to reorganize the navy. The two giants are basically settled. Entering the navy at this time will not only get attention, but also obviously have more room for improvement.

Wang Xiu looked at Li Changsheng appreciatively. Ambitious, scheming, and discerning are real talents!He doesn't believe in bullshit dedication at all, is there such a noble person?Do things without any purpose?Maybe there are, but those are all facebook characters.He figured out Li Changsheng's plan, and said with a smile, "Okay, good ambition."

Just as Wang Xiu expected, after careful consideration, Li Changsheng thought that Wang Xiu would stop the military power. Now there are many factions of generals and commanders in the Forbidden Army, and it is very difficult for newcomers to enter. Was stuck on the seventh-rank official.Li Bao and Shangguanqian's going south was obviously Wang Xiu's first step in creating a new army, and they were Wang Xiu's absolute direct descendants.

As the vanguard of overseas operations, the navy must be Wang Xiu's most important force. He has reason to believe in Wang Xiu's ability, and joining the navy will greatly benefit his future.Seeing that Wang Xiu supported him to join the army, he said excitedly: "Mr. Xie is perfect."

Wang Xiu shook her head and said, "It's just your personal choice. It's good to have such ambitions, and you have a good vision, but success or failure depends on you."

Li Changsheng nodded silently, secretly savoring the charm of Wang Xiu's words, especially the phrase 'very discerning'.

Wang Xiu looked solemn, and said again: "Second brother, you joined the army as the number one scholar, did you ever think of the criticism from the government and the opposition? That is not something ordinary people can bear."

Li Changsheng calmed down, and said loudly: "I never thought so far, no matter what, it is always right to serve the court."

Wang Xiu's eyes lit up, and a gleam of appreciation flashed across her.
