Chapter 235
The emperor frowned now, did this guy go too far?

However, Wang Fu is still very useful to him now. When it is necessary, he will naturally block the sword for him. He said: "This move is against the majesty of the great man. I will question him and discuss other matters." stop!"

"Your Majesty, this statement is wrong!" The one who spoke was Taiwei Zhang Wen. Since Zhang Wen inherited the position of Taiwei Qiao Xuan, he has been in charge of the military affairs of the Han Dynasty, but he is cold and frosty. Speaking, today actually refuted the emperor, and many ministers secretly rejoiced. Wang Fu, even a cold minister like Zhang Wen, can't stand it anymore. It is really a punishment from God!

Zhang Wen doesn't communicate with ministers like them on weekdays, and he speaks little. Of course, this is why he can become a captain. After the emperor saw him speak, his brows frowned slightly. Unanimous in everything other than allegiance, the emperor still smiled, looked at the always ruthless captain, and asked, "I don't know what opinion the captain has?"

After Zhang Taiwei entered the court, he only spoke once. That time, he asked His Majesty to recruit new soldiers. After he got the permission of the emperor, he actually recruited [-] soldiers. Well, the imperial court couldn't afford to support so many soldiers. In addition, there was no need to expand the army like this. The northern and southern armies already numbered [-].

[-] elites are enough to wipe out any enemy, and recruiting another [-], wouldn't that make the rare wealthy man fall into financial crisis again?
Under the full opposition of the officials, the Taiwei continued to use force, and finally the emperor spoke. He only recruited [-] new soldiers. Even if it was [-], it was not a small number, which made the officials feel a little angry at Zhang Wen. I think he is a traitor who ignores the common people for the sake of military exploits, just like Duan Yan.

He frowned, and the emperor had never seen him open his brows. Even He Xiu would show his tenderness when facing the little fat man. Only this Zhang Wen and Zhang Taiwei seemed to never Knowing what a smile is, his expression seemed to have frozen. He looked at the emperor, cupped his hands, and said, "Your Majesty, why do you want to punish Wang Jun?"

"kindness?"

"What if the big man assassinates a few barbarians?" Zhang Wen raised his head and said proudly. The emperor looked at him in amazement. To bully the weak with the strong is not in line with etiquette!" The other ministers still looked at Zhang Wen blankly, just now, they thought that the Taiwei wanted to share the same hatred with them, how could this be so?

Zhang Wen continued: "Treat guests with courtesy, why do you need courtesy to treat enemies?"

"Enemy? These people just paid tribute to the big man last year, wrote the national book, and respected the emperor. How can this be a courtesy?! It is unreasonable for Wang Fu to hold such a ceremony. I have never seen such a villain in my life!" Xun Jian was a little angry Said.

"I am a man, with the mandate of heaven, to pass on the words of a sage to the world!" He looked up at the emperor, and said solemnly: "Please allow your majesty, I am willing to lead [-] new troops to rush there. Within three months, the country will definitely be destroyed." Destroy the country, cut off the head of the bandit chieftain, and send it to the king!"

The emperor seemed to have just gotten to know this captain again. This is also a ruthless man. He had just finished training the new army and wanted to attack everywhere. It is a major matter for the country, and I hope the Taiwei will be cautious!"

Zhang Wen then withdrew helplessly, and Yuan Feng continued: "Your Majesty, Wang Fu also asked the surrounding states to pay tribute to the big man. If the country does not get rid of him, this is to cause war on purpose."

"Oh, it is their blessing to be able to pay tribute to the big men. Your Majesty, if there is a war, I am willing to lead [-] new kings. Within two months, I will definitely destroy the country and cut off the heads of the bandit chieftains. Send it to the king" Zhang Wen said again, Yuan Feng was furious, but he didn't refute, he looked at the emperor with some worry, the emperor was sage, but he was a little overjoyed, this is a common problem of Mingjun.

He was worried that in order to open up the territory and expand the territory, the emperor would recruit unknown teachers and conquer everywhere. This is absolutely not moral!

At this moment, the Taiwei's threat in the hearts of the officials has reached the point of being slightly inferior to that of Wang Fu, and it is no different from Wen Renxi. Yang Qiu, and now there is another Zhang Wen who wants to chop off other people's heads. Few of my ministers are normal at all!

"I'll ask Wang Fu first about this matter, and then discuss it!"

The Son of Heaven strongly suppressed the matter, then raised his head, looked at the crowd, and asked, "What about the Northern and Southern Army?" He turned his head to look at Duan Yan, who got up and said, "Your Majesty, Hezhou, on the side of Xinzhou, although there are many foreign enemies, they have no courage to invade the big Han, not to mention Dong Zhuo guarding Youzhou, Wuhuan, the Huns are still there, the northern and southern armies should retreat."

The most elite group of men in the Han Dynasty stayed outside for three full years. This is a rare situation in the history of the Han Dynasty. It is also a wise choice for Duan Yan to suggest that the army return and recuperate in Luoyang. The emperor nodded and agreed. Taiwei Zhang Wen got up again and said, "Your Majesty, how can you relax in military affairs?"

"Then according to Taiwei's opinion?"

"We should set up a fourth army, fill it with new troops, and guard the four sides as a standing reserve, instead of garrison soldiers, and take the garrison soldiers as a replacement!" When Zhang Wen said this, no matter whether it was the emperor, Duan Xie, or the hundreds of people in the court The faces of the officials all changed drastically. Duan Yan hurriedly said: "This is impossible. If the soldiers guarding the border are scattered, hundreds of thousands of soldiers will return to the Han Dynasty, and the common people will not need to train in autumn. It will not be beneficial to the country."

"The Fourth Army, recruited from the common people, rotates for four years, and the common people practice continuously in autumn!"

"With [-] soldiers, [-] will guard Hezhou, [-] will guard the Western Regions, [-] will guard Yuyang, [-] will guard Cangwu, and [-] will guard Qianwei! If there is trouble outside, attack it with elite soldiers and cut off the head of the bandit chieftain." Send it to the king." Zhang Wen said firmly, and he explained his plan in detail. He didn't intend to cancel the border guards.

He wants to turn the border guards into military settlements, and conduct military settlements around the Han Dynasty. There is no need to practice against the enemy. He wants to separate the military from the civil administration. Do, after he finished speaking, he handed over the written memorial to the emperor. The emperor looked at his memorial, and it seemed that he had already planned for this matter.

Duan Xi became a little contemplative. He was thinking whether Zhang Wen's proposal was feasible. The ministers rallied and opposed it. Almost no ministers were willing to support Zhang Wen, especially after he showed a very strong desire for expansion. They objected even more, they couldn't tolerate such a grandiose and belligerent Taiwei, to carry out his own plan.

They don't know whether these [-] standing soldiers are guarding the four directions, whether they want to guard the border or conquer the four sides. If this action arouses the emperor's desire to expand, it will be a disaster for the great man. The Son of Heaven can understand!
