Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 182 Chongzhen who does not talk about martial arts

The voice of Emperor Chongzhen echoed in the Huangji Hall, but it was like a thunderbolt, which exploded in the ears of the officials in the court.

Knowing that the Son of Heaven is going to hold a grand court meeting, all the ministers in the court figured out that the Son of Heaven must have other deep meanings, otherwise he would never have made such a big fuss.

Now here he is.

Cabinet ministers such as Han Yu, Li Biao, and Zhou Daodeng, ministers of the academy, ministry, and temple such as Liu Zongzhou and Bi Ziyan, and military ministers such as Wang Qia and Li Banghua all had different expressions on their faces, and they were secretly saying something in their hearts.

Even Wang Qia, Li Banghua, Zhou Yanru, Xu Guangqi, Wen Tiren and others, logically speaking, they were always by Emperor Chongzhen's side and should know more, but what Emperor Chongzhen said at this time still made them feel nervous. They didn't even know about this before.

"I guess... in the hearts of all the nobles, you are thinking about what I am going to read at this time, right?"

Emperor Chongzhen, holding the Tianzi sword in his hand, looked at the ministers standing in the hall with a calm expression through the dangling crown in front of his eyes, and said loudly: "I won't play charades anymore. In fact, there is nothing to talk about. I, Ming, set up a special military aircraft department to defeat the Jian captives who committed crimes below."

Daming, which was in a state of disarray, was faced with frequent natural disasters and a collapsed financial system. In fact, there was one matter that was placed in front of Emperor Chongzhen, and he had to try to solve it.

That is the military issue of establishing captives and bandits rebelling.

The Ming regime headed by the cabinet is mainly about governing the world, such as dealing with military issues. Although there is a Ministry of War, the power is not strong enough to compete with the cabinet.

Regarding the military issues related to the stability of the country, although there are some civilian officials who understand military affairs among the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty, most of them still don't understand. They feel that after reading a few military books, they can point fingers. of.

What Emperor Chongzhen wanted was a military planner that specialized in making plans around the important affairs of military aircraft, and competed with the cabinet for corresponding resources, and was subordinate to the authority.

It stands to reason that the Ming Dynasty had the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies, even though it was emptied out by the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty, if Emperor Chongzhen really wanted to achieve this political plan, wouldn’t it be possible to directly use the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies?

Why create a military aircraft department?
It's not that Emperor Chongzhen didn't want to, but reality doesn't allow it. The civil servants of the Ming Dynasty controlled the Ministry of War and emptied the Huns and Qi of the Ming Dynasty who had previously held power. How many interests were involved behind this?

The problems accumulated over the years can be solved overnight, is it possible?realistic?
Emperor Chongzhen had no extra energy or time to solve the messy issue of military power on the premise of checking and balancing the court.

"...Through this confrontation with Jianlu, I discovered that a special military aircraft department is specially set up to take care of the important affairs of the military aircraft, to control the battle situation, and to be able to upload and distribute efficiently."

Emperor Chongzhen continued: "The Jianlu who are raging in Liaodong at present, and the rebellion that is raging in Shanxi and other places, are all things that our court must solve.

Faced with such a situation, I need to reuse the Military Aircraft Department to deal with emergency military affairs, and to integrate with the cabinet, the Sixth Ministry, the localities, and the counter-insurgency army.

Therefore, I have decided not to withdraw the Military Plane Department. When will the rebellion and rebellion be put down in Ming Dynasty, and when will we discuss whether to abolish the Military Plane Department. "

The officials standing in the Huangji Hall were shocked, some were in disbelief, some were stunned, and some were excited when they heard what Emperor Chongzhen said.

"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible!"

Liu Zongzhou, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, walked out of the court with an excited expression, held the court wat and cupped his hands and said: "I have never had such a precedent in Ming Dynasty.

In addition, our country has a cabinet and a military department. Even if there are important military affairs that need to be dealt with, they can be resolved. The military department cannot be left behind! "

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

Following Liu Zongzhou's footsteps, more than a dozen courtiers rushed out from the court class. They held court wats, bowed their hands, and seconded with a firm attitude.

Just because of the sudden war situation of the invasion of Jianlu, there have been quite a few changes in the country, and there have even been ad hoc institutions such as the Capital Governor's Mansion and the Nine Gates Admiral, and even the inner court has appeared. Editor factory.

Under the background that the court situation was complicated and confusing, Yuan Chonghuan was sent to prison, and the emperor showed a strong background, most of the civil servants in the outer dynasty were unwilling to see the permanent establishment of the Military Aircraft Department.

When will the rebellion be suppressed, and when will we discuss whether to abolish the military aircraft department? That will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at Liu Zongzhou and the others, and then at Han Yu and Li Biao. Even at this time, there were many voices from outside the Huangji Hall. Ministers, when they heard the shocking words, they were all very excited.

The officials of the Ministry of War are pretty good. After all, Wang Qia, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Li Banghua, Minister of the Ministry of War, still hold important positions in the Military Aircraft Department.

However, from the Bingke and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, including officials from the ministry and monasteries, a lot of officials rushed out and tried to persuade them outside the Huangji Hall.

"It seems that you didn't hear what I said just now, did you?"

Faced with such a situation, Emperor Chongzhen was not annoyed, and calmly said: "What I said was a decision, not a suggestion. I read this matter in the Emperor Palace today to inform you.

how?

Could it be that in Zhu Qing's heart, none of them wanted to watch Guochao put down the rebellion?
Inside and outside the Huangji Hall, don't emphasize the Great Ming Ancestral System to me, I know it better than you.

I would like to ask you, when Emperor Taizu Gao, Emperor Chengzu ... ruled the Ming Dynasty, did you ever encounter a situation where there were strong enemies outside and rebellion inside?
At that time, there were still five armies in our dynasty, and the Ministry of War was in charge of the world's soldiers and horses.

What now?
There is only one military department, and there are so many disturbances.

It's okay to abolish the Military Aircraft Department, so let's talk about the Five Armies Commander's Mansion!

Also, whoever wants to threaten me by resigning from office should stand up now, and whoever resigns at the court will be approved immediately. "

Emperor Chongzhen's words were very serious. As soon as these words came out, all the ministers who opposed the plan to withdraw the army were a little dumbfounded. No one thought that the emperor would mention the matter of the governor's office of the five armies.

If it is really going to continue like this, wouldn't the group of relatives who were suppressed before rise again in the court?
For the matters involved in this, not one person can decide.

The cabinet ministers headed by Han Yu and Li Biao, through the words of Emperor Chongzhen, knew in their hearts how firm the emperor's attitude was in opposing the military aircraft.

If they do something radical in this grand court meeting, the 'angry' emperor will definitely choose to be tough to the end. It seems that they will not benefit much if they lose their official positions.
