I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 454 Ideological Education
After dismissing Yang Shiqi and his son, it was already late at night.

Li Tian opened a list of personnel, and there were hundreds of people densely recorded on it.

This list is the result of Li Qing, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, in the past two or three months.

They are all generals who eat empty salaries and drink blood from the frontier army. These people have everything from small banners, hundreds of households to thousands of households, inspections, and defenses. In the more serious guards, no one is clean from top to bottom.

These are just the people that the local guards can find. If you look deeper, there are often bigger tigers behind them.

Not even the nobles in the Five Army Commander's Mansion have clean buttocks.

This is only a part of the frontier army, and so many problems have been found.

If it were replaced with a more decayed and withered guard in the hinterland of the Central Plains, the situation might be even more serious.

Since the frontier army has only finished fighting for a few years, and the frontier army must guard against foreign invasion at any time, it is relatively better than those guards in the hinterland.

But even so, Li Qing still found out that hundreds of people had problems.

When he first got this list, Li Tian was so angry that he almost ran away when he saw the astonishing vacancy figures recorded in the booklet.

He almost ordered someone to cut all these moths with a knife.

But in the end, Li Tian forcibly endured it. It was a pleasure to kill them all, but many of these people were generals in the middle and lower ranks of the army, and they were regarded as one of the main structures of the frontier army leadership.

If they were all killed, it would certainly make the frontier guards clear for a while, but the combat effectiveness of the frontier army might plummet from there.

Especially when he just learned from Yang Dao that Wala and Tatar had secretly united, this made Li Tian even more afraid to move these people easily.

However, the criminal evidence of these people has already been established, and the physical witnesses have provided complete evidence. If these people are not dealt with, no matter from which point of view, it will be somewhat unjustifiable.

Li Tian was hesitant about this, and couldn't come up with a safe solution for a long time.

He wanted to discuss it with someone, but he initiated the investigation of Tianxiawei. If he repented in front of those courtiers, he would lose face.

In addition, the civil official group has always been at odds with military generals, and Yang Shiqi and others he relies on are also civil officials. Even if he discusses with them, it is estimated that he will be punished severely in the end, and there is no other result.

At this time, Li Tiancai understood the distress of being an emperor.

Obviously everything is right, but the result is something that no one wants to admit.

This aggrieved feeling is really uncomfortable to the extreme.

The investigation of Tianxiawei is still ongoing, and the frontier army is only the first stop, and there are more and bigger tigers waiting to surface.

If they can't handle it well at the beginning, I'm afraid Li Qing and others will be in a difficult situation and will not make any progress.

After thinking about it for a long time, Li Tian, ​​who had two thick dark circles under his eyes, finally made a decision when he saw that the sky was turning pale.

He raised his pen and wrote a few large characters on the paper, "Suggestions on establishing a military hall!"

That's right, Li Tian's plan is to create a serious military academy.

Someone may ask, what does punishing corrupt generals have to do with establishing a military academy.

But Li Tian will tell you that it has a lot to do with it.

First of all, the military academy is an excellent platform for quickly training middle-level generals. In a very short period of time, a group of mid-level and lower-level officers who have the ability and foundation but have no chance of promotion can be quickly trained to have a certain command ability. mid-level officers.

In this way, the vacancies of officers that appeared after the inspection of the guards could be filled as quickly as possible.

Secondly, the military academy can correct the thinking of those officers who have not made serious mistakes, but just follow the trend and do not have much fault, and conduct a certain review of their abilities.

Screen out those who are truly capable, and eliminate those who have become officers by virtue of their connections.

In later generations, those who were called to study at the party school were not only excellent reserve cadres, but also some capable but not thoughtful thorns.

As a new generation born in New China and raised under the red flag, Li Tian is very aware of the special effects that ideological education has on a person, especially soldiers who defend their homes and the country.

Corrupt officials are certainly hateful, but wouldn't it be more perfect if they could be reborn as human beings through ideological education.

After supplementing the basic structure of the General Academy on paper, Li Tian began to screen the list of personnel again.

Those who were relatively young and whose crimes were not serious, Li Tian circled them all with a red pen.

Those who have committed the most heinous crimes are all marked with big crosses.

After carefully reviewing the choices, Li Tian finally found that the circled and crossed people are almost half to half.

Seeing that the number is still so shocking, Li Tian was both saddened and annoyed.

Finally, he threw the written list on the ground and shouted at the eunuch on duty,
"Decree to the Ministry of War, let them bring the people on the list back to the capital immediately, if someone refuses to obey the order, there will be no mercy to kill them on the spot!"

At this time, Li Tian was in danger. Since he ascended the throne, he had never dealt with so many people at one time. He was so full of murderous aura that the little eunuchs in the hall were so frightened that they dared not even take a breath.

A little eunuch tremblingly picked up the list, saluted respectfully, and hurried out.

Seeing the little eunuch passing the decree leave, Li Tian sat back on the dragon chair like a deflated ball.

After all, killing people is not the best way, especially if it is a general in the frontier army, it is even more difficult for him to make a choice.

But he had to do this. If he didn't ask the first batch of officers, or if he raised his hand and asked to let go, it would make the guard officers behind him think and think.

This massive investigation of the Tianxiawei may turn into a farce in the end.

So this group of people must be killed, and they will be killed with such a great momentum that everyone in the world knows about it.

Let everyone know that Li Tian is going to be serious this time, and let those who are still lucky and think that they can hide from the world know that it's not that they don't report, but that the time has not yet come.

As soon as the edict from the Ministry of War came out, the world shook, and those dirty officers who got the inside information couldn't sleep all night.

Some people even want to escape or simply die.

The honorable groups of Ming Dynasty were also in chaos.
