173. Will not give up

Although the generals now have luxury houses and luxury houses, they are unwilling to give up their military power easily. They came to find Fan Chong, who originally wanted everyone to make trouble, forcing the emperor to change his mind, or just make a fuss, and let them be the master of Chang'an City and live the life of recklessness in the past. Unexpectedly, Fan Chong scolded them and ordered everyone to obey the emperor's will. Everyone was out of energy to make trouble.

The biggest damage to the disbanding army was the big leaders such as Fan Chong and Xu Xuan, which was equivalent to giving up their power and placing their lives on the little emperor.

But they didn't object, and they helped the emperor do this. Even if the generals below wanted to make trouble, they would be invincible and could not become the climate.

But there are still some people who refuse to give up and are determined to disband their team, such as General He Changnian of Linyi.

Since he ended up as the pioneer of the army, he has been quiet for many days. Seeing the emperor gradually gaining control of Chang'an, he has taken over power little by little, and his status can no longer be shaken. He Changnian, who thought he had a feud with the emperor, had to become a turtle and live a life of peace and stability.

The emperor did not make things difficult for him. He appointed him as a marquis of Linyi with 3,000 households, which was considered to be kind to him, but He Changnian was still not very relieved, fearing that he would be found when he would be found.

Now that he heard that the battalions were going to be disbanded, He Changnian immediately came to Xu Xuan and said as soon as he met, "Prime Minister, what does the little emperor mean? He disbanded all his brothers, leaving us bare generals to clean up one by one?"

"For many years, you have thought too much. You don't have your own army, and you have the glory and wealth of the marquis, passed on to your descendants and enjoy it for generations."

"Put all the treasures on the little emperor. If he fails, what will we do then? If you want to go elsewhere, there will be no more people."

"Don't say anything nonsense! Can such words be said casually?" Xu Xuan changed his face and hurriedly pulled him closer, saying, "For many years, don't be so stubborn anymore. Your Majesty is the true Lord of Destiny. If he didn't succeed, if it were us, it would be even worse."

Xu Xuan is now completely convinced by the little emperor. He feels that handing over such a big stall to the emperor is more promising than Fan Chong and himself. He is willing to be a hero of the founding country and wait to enjoy wealth and honor.

He Changnian said: "Prime Minister, if there were no more than hundreds of thousands of troops, would the little emperor still take you seriously? Is there any share in the court that you can speak?"

Xu Xuan said: "If this is true, I will return to the old countryside and be a rich man with peace of mind."

He Changnian paused and said, "Prime Minister, you are confused! You can only hold the knife in your own hands, how can you hand it to someone else's hands? I would rather die than disband the Linyi Camp, and I just want to stay in one place. If Chang'an cannot stay, I will take my men and horses to another place."

Xu Xuan hurriedly said, "No, if you do this, you will be like Bing'an. Bing'an is the left Grand Sima, with a high position and a powerful position. The emperor cannot easily touch him. You are different. If Your Majesty wants to deal with you, as long as the Yulin Army moves, you will be at risk of death and end up with the same fate as Huang Xing. For many years, you and my brothers will be in a fight. I advise you not to do anything wrong!"

He Changnian suddenly pounced, knelt down and said, "Prime Minister, Brother Xu, think of a solution for me. I really don't want to stay in Chang'an and follow the mercy of the little emperor. Please help me keep this group of people, go anywhere, have a place to settle down, and you also have a way out. If there is a mistake in the future, you will come to your brothers to settle down. Brothers will still regard you as the leader and listen to your orders."

Xu Xuan hurriedly helped him up and said helplessly: "Since you are so determined, I will use this old face to ask Your Majesty for reunion. Whether it is successful or not can only depend on Your Majesty's intention."

Xu Xuan went to the palace to meet the emperor and said, "There are some generals and lieutenants who are unwilling to separate from their brothers. They would rather follow the matter of raising land between the private camp and the Nancheng camp and search for military garrisons in Sanfu. They have such deep affection. If they insist on disbanding them, they may arouse military changes. Please give your Majesty a pity and fulfill their brotherly love."

The emperor pondered: "Since this is the case, it is up to the generals to decide that they can stay in Chang'an and enjoy the glory. The camps are disbanded and returned to the people, and they can also choose places to gather in the military camps. All the titles and salaries are as before, but the houses in Chang'an must be returned, and the generals and lieutenants must leave Chang'an with their soldiers and go to the place where the farmlands are."

In other words, if they refuse to give up their troops, they will give up their comfortable life in Chang'an.

"The military farm is supplied by the Gongzhong to provide seeds and livestock. The grain and grain produced in addition to their own use, and the food and grain produced must also be supplied to the public." The young emperor looked at Xu Xuan and said, "There is the most important thing: whether to disband for the people or to accompany the general to farm, the soldiers of each battalion must decide on the number of soldiers that the generals can take away depends on how many people are willing to follow them."

After an order was issued, the battalions were in turmoil.

The emperor's edict was not to go to the generals of each battalion, but to two chief officials: Yang Yin and Luo You, who would issue it again.

Luo You sent hundreds of soldiers to shout in the camp outside the city, and directly assigned the order to ordinary soldiers, so that they could decide what to stay and leave according to their own thoughts.

Two hundred thousand people were immediately in an uproar, some were happy and some were sad, some were laughing, and some were crying.

"One hundred acres of good land, my family has never had so much land, and I can finally live a good life this time!"

"Yes! It is said that the fields in Guanzhong are extremely fat. By using the method of replacing the fields, each mu of can produce ten stones of millet!"

"What you said is too evil. How can there be so many fields of ten stones? Five stones per mu is an amazing good field."

"It's enough for a family to eat or use."

"I can finally live in the house. There is a warm kang, so there is no need to live in this broken tent!"

"Yes, after running around for so many years, I finally have a home."

Some people are unwilling to be the common people, and only want to stay and let His Majesty provide food and drink, so that they can be free. But His Majesty said that after this disbandment, they will no longer provide food in the camp, and everyone will have to support themselves.

Unless you are going to be the Emperor's soldiers.

Everyone knows that the emperor is willing to spend money to raise soldiers. When he is an emperor's soldier, Yulinlang often has meat to eat. The emperor is willing to spend a lot of money on the Yulin army, so that they can grow up at critical moments and grow into strong men in the future.

Even if he is not Yu Linlang, he is just an adult army that is usually reorganized, and his food is many times better than in the camp.

However, the young emperor believed in one thing: soldiers are more important than elites, and they are constantly raising the standards for military selection. Ordinary young and strong people are no longer attracted to the eyes of His Majesty.
