I Xiaoxiong

Chapter 382 Old Spicy
In the lobby of the Chongzhengyuan, among the civil servants are the prime minister, the minister of the Ministry of War, and the Yushi Zhongcheng. Among the generals, there are nine three government officers, plus the British Duke Fu Maoxiu, who knows the affairs of the Chongzhengyuan with Li Fuzhi, the left minister, and his son, Marquis Wu'an. Fu Jinchuan.

Civil and military officials all sat in attendance, and in the middle of the lobby was a long table.

The Chongzheng Yuan was originally established for the Northwest War and the court's new law, but now it is discussing the reform of the new army and the arrangement of the army after the Qi Wanghui.

The new army has a total of 10 people in the Eighth Army, which was originally affiliated to the Generalissimo's Mansion of the Tianxia Bingma, and later filled in the two wars in Shannan.

But now that the war is over, how to place the new army has become a problem that needs to be solved.

The Emperor Daojun naturally planned to reorganize the Forbidden Army based on the new army.

Abolish the earlier system of the Sanya Forbidden Army.

If it was before Wu Ni's rebellion, this idea would never have come true.

But after years of wars, things took a turn for the better.

The Sanya Forbidden Army has a total of 36 guards besides the Dianqian Banzhi. However, since the war, more than a dozen guards have been transferred from the Forbidden Army to conquer Jianghuai, Shannan, Guanzhong, and Xichuan.

The world has been peaceful for many years, and the imperial army, which has accumulated many evils, is naturally useless.

The imperial army with at least five guards is almost an established mourning division, and the other ministries also have their own losses.

The civil servants have long been displeased with the soldiers of the Imperial Army and the dignitaries behind them, so now they have even more excuses to make trouble.

The Emperor Daojun was naturally happy to see the success, so he pushed the boat along.

Just take this opportunity to eliminate the accumulated evils in the army, after all, most of the previous scruples have been eliminated by this time.

As for the honorable generals who advocated that the forbidden army should not be moved lightly, it was difficult to refute at this time, and they were appeased and divided by Zhao Lingyuan.

Therefore, it is imperative to reform the military system.

What needs to be discussed now is how to change, how to change.

First of all, it is not a common practice to use the Grand Marshal's Mansion to supervise the new army. Even if the original three government offices are abolished, another government office needs to be established.

Also, how to deal with the remaining Forbidden Army?

If simply changing the military number, it is bound to fail to meet the emperor's requirements.

It is even more nonsense to abolish all of them, which will cause trouble.

Therefore, the reform of the forbidden army is actually a game between multiple forces.

The emperor wants better troops and simpler administration, and the imperial army is available.

The Wu Xun family will continue to lead the army and hold power, after all, this is related to the family's survival.

The civil servants hoped that redundancies could be eliminated, local garrisons reduced and, if possible, intervened in military affairs.

In addition, there are some old and weak imperial troops who are destined to be abolished and need to be resettled.

Therefore, the negotiation sought by many parties will not be achieved overnight.

Although Fu Jinchuan was the Jiedu envoy of Jiannan Road, in order to allow him to participate in the discussion, he was specially given the vacant position of Minister of Zhongshu so that he could participate in the restructuring.

But Fu Sanlang is naturally not interested in such things, and the most impatient thing for him, who is not yet [-] years old, is to sit with these old men and argue.

So he deliberately sat in the last row on the general's side, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

But soon Fu Sanlang had to open his eyes to see things, because the emperor came.

Emperor Daojun came to Chongzhengyuan, but it was not because of the military system that was under discussion.

It was because of Longyou's coaching change.

Fu Maoxiu directly recommended Pingbei Hou Mawei, who was still serving in the south of the Yangtze River, as the envoy of Longyou Jiedu.

The position of governor of Hongzhou left behind by him was taken over by Liu Xingzong, the deputy envoy of Jiedu in Longyou, and Zhang Renyuan, the envoy of Jiedu, was willing to enter Beijing as an official.

As for the Deputy Envoy of Jiedu, Fu Maoxiu recommended Li Zhaode, Duke of Wei, son of the late King Wuxiang of Qiyang Li Shizhong.

Li Zhaode supervised the forbidden army to participate in the battle during the chaos in the south of Shannan. He has done a lot of merit. Although he is not as capable as his father, he is still proficient in military affairs. of.

As for Pingbei Hou Mawei, he was strict in running the army. He was once the envoy of Shuofang, and the two captives in the Northwest did not dare to commit crimes. Old Duke.

Moreover, Ma Wei was an old friend of the emperor Zhao Lingyuan, so even a group of civil officials could not find any fault in such an arrangement.

But this time the Emperor Daojun didn't agree, instead he asked Li Fuzhi, the Prime Minister of the Left, who was his candidate.

Li Fuzhi naturally knew that the emperor Daojun had other ideas, but this time even he, who had always gotten along with Zhao Lingyuan and his ministers, could not understand the emperor's thoughts.

The imperial court wanted to change the commander, it must be because the current Jiedu envoy and the deputy envoy competed for power and profit, so that Longyou Qianghu made troubles and refused to accept Wang Hua.

If you want to change the current situation, you must change to a prestigious general.

There are not many generals who have the ability and qualifications to serve as Longyou Jiedu envoys, and to be able to hold back those arrogant soldiers of the frontier army.

If the Marquis of Pingbei and Ma Wei can't satisfy His Majesty, then there are probably only Marquis Wuyang Yu Luohu, Duke Ying and Marquis Wu'an and his sons.

As far as the actions of the British prince are concerned, it is obvious that he does not want to lead the army.

Marquis Wuyang should not move lightly in the east of the river.

Is it the Marquis of Wu'an?

But when he was transferred back to the capital from Jiannan, it was just a plan that he would not release it in the short term.
At this time, Fu Jinchuan said: "Your Majesty, I would like to recommend a man who is brave and good at fighting, has the courage that is beyond the reach of a man, and has a general strategy."

Zhao Lingyuan frowned when he heard the words, and asked with a smile: "Wanfu is not brave? But 'Xue Wanfu'"

"Your Majesty is innocent."

"Hahaha."

The person recommended by Fu Jinchuan was Xue Cong, who led the army to the west in the 16th year of Xuanjia and had the merit of destroying the country.

Known as "Xue Wanfu".

Fu Jinchuan and Xue Cong were old acquaintances. They fought side by side in the Baiting and Shule battles.

And Xue Cong has also experienced military exploits in Hexi these years, and is now the deputy envoy of Hexi Jiedu.

However, compared with Pingbei Hou Mawei, his qualifications are somewhat insufficient.

Although noncommittal, everyone could clearly see that the emperor was a little moved.

"Forget it, let's discuss this matter again. There is another matter. Jiannan Road is now stable. The previous discussion of dividing towns is now feasible?"

Even now that the prince is in charge of Shuzhong, it is still on the agenda to divide the Jiedushi of Jiannan Road into two.

As for this point, Niu Daoqian, Minister of the Ministry of War, was well prepared.

Immediately proposed that Jiannan Jiedu envoy be the Jiannan West Road Jiedu envoy, govern Yizhou Chengdu, and divide Guozhou.Zizhou, Suizhou, Mianzhou, Langzhou, Jianzhou, Longzhou, Puzhou, Lingzhou, Luzhou, Rongzhou, Zizhou, and Jianzhou are the Jiedu envoys of Jiannan Dongdao, and the government is located in Zizhou.

This method of division can be said to have been discussed by the Ministry of War for a long time, fully taking into account the situation in Central Shu.

Emperor Daojun looked at Niu Daoqian's upper face, nodded slightly, and also expressed his reconsideration.

Then Zhao Lingyuan got up and left, and specially asked Fu Maoxiu to accompany him when he left.

"Have you ever thought about letting Sanlang move the town to Longyou?"

Only when there were two monarchs and ministers did Zhao Lingyuan talk about the candidate he really liked.

Although Fu Jinchuan is in Shangjing, he has never resigned from the position of Jiannan Jiedushi, so if he goes to Longyou, it is not to build a festival, but to move the town.

Fu Maoxiu replied after hearing the words: "Your Majesty, Longyou is the western arm of our Great Jin Dynasty. It connects Shuofang, Guanzhong, and Hexi in the middle of Shu. Seeing the Qiang Hu and the Western Captives, they must regard them as enemies, and they will not fight every year, but now the imperial court is short of money, and after ten years of war, all businesses have withered, and there is a new army restructuring, at this time, it is more quiet than moving."

Zhao Lingyuan frowned slightly after hearing this, he knew what Fu Maoxiu said was right, after all, knowing a son is like a father.

Fu Sanlang is young and vigorous, and everyone knows his warlike heart.

If he is moved to Longyou, it is certain that within a year, those Qianghu who dared to show their teeth to Da Jin would have to be removed.

There are also the remnants of the red lotus who have already established a foothold in the land of Hehuang.

What Zhao Lingyuan even wanted was to let the invincible Fu Jinchuan go to Longyou to completely wipe out these red lotus remnants.

But obviously, the imperial court is not suitable to go to war at present.

The red lotus remnants who are already outside the territory are actually no different from those disobedient Qianghu tribes.

What they are good at is not planning a city or a place, but demagoguery.

Who can they confuse in Longyou?Qiang Hu people?Or Qingtang people?
"Then Saburo recommends the candidate?"

"Xue Cong has the style of a famous general, but he kills too much. If he goes to Longyou, it will be no different from Sanlang. If your majesty does not seek side merit, just shock the Qiang and Hu tribes, and protect the environment and the people, Ma Wei is enough."

Zhao Lingyuan nodded. Ma Wei naturally knew that as an old friend, he had known each other in the early years.

In the early years, he fought under Fu Xun, Feng Shenji and other famous generals of the older generation, and was brave and good at fighting. Later, as he got older, he gradually developed the style of a general, mature and prudent.

He has also served as a palace commander and Jiedu envoy, with profound qualifications, he must be able to hold down the Longyou army.

"Forget it, just do as you say."

"Your Majesty Shengming."

Zhao Lingyuan smiled when he heard the words, and then teased: "Speaking of knowing people and being good at responsibility, it turns out that Jiang is still old and spicy."
