Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 646 Military Changes (please give me a monthly recommendation ticket!)

According to Sima Wuyi, this army is what the emperor wants to control.

But Zhang Hancai planned to talk to His Majesty personally about this matter.Because he planned to let him take charge of this army. With this army of prisoners in his hands, his status in the court would be close to that of Meng Tian and Li Xin.

It is in name only, but if others get hold of something, you don't need the emperor to take action. If you come to a doctor who talks nonsense, you will be doomed.

Without actual power and just a name, it is like a flower that bears no fruit and will eventually dissipate as soon as the wind blows.

Zhang Han took the lead in bowing:

"Your Majesty, I believe that the third method suggested by the Internal History is the most feasible. The last general is the captain of the guard army. He used to be the internal history. He is responsible for supervising the construction of the imperial mausoleum and is in charge of 70 prisoners. These prisoners The disciples know me best. And the reduction of the number of prisoners in Lishan means that at last one person will personally supervise and release those who are old and unfit to continue building the imperial tomb."

"I also ask for your Majesty's approval to allow the future commander to supervise this army."

Meng Tian saw that Zhang Han was thirsty for knowledge about these 20 prisoners.

He, the captain of the army guard, surprised Meng Tian.Meng Tian had predicted in the past that the position of captain of the army guard should be Zhao Tuo's in the future.

The late emperor was kind to Zhao Tuo and gave him such great power, and he has always been loyal to his duties over the years, so the land of Jingchu is stable.

However, Meng Tian didn't expect Zhang Han to appear.Isn’t it clear to the second generation that Zhang Han was very close to the Feng family and the Li family in the past?

Now that he has become the captain of the guard army, he can't convince the crowd. Instead, he seems to be playing a joke with the soldiers.

The Second Emperor judged who among the generals was loyal to him by watching their reactions to Zhang Han.Whether they understand it or not, most people have been fooled.

The second generation said calmly:

"The important matters of the country are to be enshrined in the army. For such a big matter, I must summon all the ministers in the court to discuss it. The preparation of the army is related to the foundation of the country. The more trivial matters such as this are deployed, the more it must be planned in order to facilitate its execution. Sima Don’t be afraid, I will write a memorial myself for what you said today, and I will let all the ministers read it when the time comes.”

"As for the Lishan prisoner, Zhang Han, I don't think it's in a hurry at this time. Let's talk about it when the mausoleum is about to be completed. Now you are the captain of the guard army, and the most important thing is to supervise the generals in the world."

Zhang Han was disappointed when he heard this.It stands to reason that he is the best candidate for the Lishan prisoners to reorganize the army.

The fact that the second son deliberately suppressed the prisoners in Lishan made Zhang Han have other thoughts about the second son.Zhang Han, who was accustomed to holding great power and coordinating many people, felt very uncomfortable with the position of captain of the guard army.

But Meng Tian openly said again:
"But Your Majesty, there are currently no troops deployed around Xianyang City. If the matter is urgent, where will Your Majesty deploy troops from?"

Meng Tian never thought that the second generation would do something so ruthless and drive away 10 people immediately without leaving any room.Meng Tian was worried about the future fate of the Second Emperor, so he had to urge him to send his army back as soon as possible to suppress all parties.

Meng Tian urged him again and again, and the second generation naturally felt Meng Tian's worries. He thought about it again and again and made a bold decision.

"I have decided to appoint Li Xin as Taiwei. He will be responsible for the military affairs and will deploy [-] elite cavalry to stay in Xianyang City."

Li Xin didn't know why, but when he heard this change, he didn't feel any excitement in his heart for a while.Li Xin truly deserves the title of Taiwei.

"In addition, I will make Meng Zhong, the beloved son of Dazhu Kingdom, Sima Xin's general."

Meng Tian naturally didn't want to after hearing this.

"Your Majesty, Quanzi Mengzhong is very active by nature. If you let him go out to fight, he will naturally dare to fight first. But if you let him stay, he may not be able to bear his temper. The young man is full of blood, like a wild horse that has escaped the reins. It is really difficult for him to do so. tame."

"It is precisely because he is young and energetic that he needs to be tamed. Let him be stationed in the army for three to five years to temper his character. As time goes by, he can also develop feelings for the soldiers. I heard that it is good. Men have to be in the military to hone their bloody nature. I really hope that Meng Zhong can hone himself in the army more."

"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible. Meng has been a general for three generations and has a large number of troops. Now..."

"Now that you are a censor, you should be busy monitoring local officials at all levels. As for your son Mengzhong, I have a high opinion of him. I hope that he will be as loyal to the empire as Dazhu Kingdom in the future."

A man who wants to dedicate his life to the First Emperor and the Qin Empire naturally hopes that his descendants can continue his will and continue to do this.

But in the past, he was also afraid, fearing that His Majesty would doubt the Meng clan again, which made Meng Tian very concerned.But the words of today's second generation dispelled the fear in his heart.Only then did he understand that it was not that the Second Emperor did not understand his loyalty to him, but that the Second Emperor was the emperor of the world.

The emperor cannot tolerate his ministers riding on his head.

In just a moment, Meng Tian figured this out, his mind suddenly broadened, and he thanked:
"I would like to thank Your Majesty on behalf of the dog."

There are no narrow-minded people present today. Meng Tian, ​​a noble and upright person, is a role model for loyal ministers. Sima Wuyi naturally looked at Meng Tian with admiration.

The Meng family has been loyal to Qin for four generations. This clan will be passed down in the history of Qin in the future.

The second generation sat down and suddenly said:
"Since Dazhu Kingdom just mentioned General Zhao Tuo, I decided to call him back to Xianyang and give him a banquet for his many years of hard work."

"Your Majesty, this should have been the case a long time ago."

"All the generals in the world should come back. I want to meet these generals in November. Sima Xin, Dong Yi, Yang Mucong, and Weitong."

Meng Tian took the opportunity to say:
"It has been almost two years since His Majesty the Emperor granted the title of prince to the princes. Although tribute has been paid, the veteran believes that even though the princes have been established, His Majesty cannot allow the princes to govern themselves."

"Dazhuguo can speak directly if he has anything to say."

"I hope that your majesty can call some princes back to Xianyang City to listen to their opinions."

"In the whole world, everything is the land of the king; on the shores of the land, there are the ministers of the king. I am the emperor, and the prince is just the head of a county. He only governs his own small territory. In order to solve the hidden dangers of the feudal country, I have become a general. The feudal kingdom is divided into smaller and smaller ones. There are sixteen counties, more than the former counties, in order to divide their strength. I will issue an extension order at that time, so the kingdom will become smaller and smaller, but in general Only belong to the Ying family, and there will be no trouble within a hundred years."

"But Your Majesty, the Taichung Censor Cheng went to Chen County a few days ago and heard about many indecent things done by the Sishui County Prince. His reputation is not only an insult to His Majesty's dignity, but also a stain on the name of the royal family. I think such things are... Don’t ignore it.”
