Five hundred and fifty chapters where is the way out
After the wine and food were prepared, Tang He invited Han Du to sit down.
As for the soup cauldron, it was done naturally without anyone asking.
After drinking for three rounds, Tang He put down his wine glass and sighed: "I don't even know that you are back in Beijing this time. This shows that you already have weight in the emperor's heart."
When Han Du heard this, he didn't think about how to answer this for a moment and fell silent on the spot.
Tang He didn't pay attention and continued: "Are you sure about the eradication of the Japanese pirates?"
"As long as we have these three new warships, I will be confident." Han Du did not hide in front of Tang He, "Even if he cannot do his best, he will not fail."
"If these three warships are really as powerful as you said, they will naturally be invincible." Tang He nodded, "But after all, this is what you said, it is just talk on paper. Originally, I was planning to test it first.
It's powerful, but time is running out now, and judging from the emperor's appearance, he has no intention of testing it. Therefore, I am really worried, so please forgive me."
"Young Master, you are serious." Han Du quickly turned sideways to show that he was not being attacked. Han Du did not dare to accept Tang He's apology in a harsh way. "I guarantee with my head that these three warships will definitely attack the Japanese pirates."
The ship inflicted a devastating blow."
Tang He saw that Han Du said so solemnly, so he had no choice but to believe it.
Tang Ding heard about the new warships at the side, and he suddenly became interested and said: "Dad, Brother Han, what warships did you say are so powerful? Can I go and see them?"
Han Du didn't feel anything wrong after hearing this, but Tang He couldn't help but frown.
"Do you think going to sea is a joke? Once this person goes to sea, he will give half of his life to the Sea Dragon King. Why do you want to go to sea for nothing? Just be your commander-in-chief of the Fifth Army.
"
Tang Ding, as the eldest son of the Duke of Xin State, was also a talented person. Naturally, he was the best heir to the Duke of Xin State. Tang He naturally did not want him to go to sea and take risks.
Although what Tang He said just now is exaggerated, it is indeed more dangerous to go to sea than on the land. Although the warships of the Ming Dynasty Navy are tall and majestic, they can completely ignore ordinary winds and waves, but it does not mean that they are invincible.
Don't be afraid of anything anymore.
In the event of a strong sea storm, there is still a possibility of capsizing.
"Dad, if you are afraid that I will be in danger when I go to sea, then you can't let your second brother inherit your title. Besides, I will only go to sea once, so there are so many dangers?" Tang Ding said with a nonchalant tone.
But it made Tang He very angry, "What are you talking about?"
When Han Du saw father and son, they started to argue. He quickly advised: "Master, calm down."
Seeing that Han Du was here, Tang He couldn't get into an argument with Tang Ding, so he had to suppress his anger.
Han Du glanced at the father and son, and Tang Ding kept winking at Han Du, obviously wanting Han Du to intercede for him.
After thinking for a while, Han Du said: "Master, I think Brother Tang Ding's idea of going to sea is a good one."
"Why?" Tang He said with a straight face, looking puzzled.
If it were another person, maybe Tang He wouldn't bother to pay attention at all. I eat more rice than you have ever eaten, and you still want to teach me at such a young age? But Han Du is different. After all, there are some things
Even the emperor sometimes listens to Han Du's opinions.
"Where do you think the Ming Dynasty's generals will find their way out?" Han Du smiled.
Tang He was silent for a while after hearing this.
Seeing that Tang He didn't speak, Han Du continued: "The world is ruled by generals, and peace can be enjoyed without generals. The former Song Dynasty learned the lessons of the separatist rule of vassal towns in the late Tang Dynasty, so it emphasized culture over military force, thinking that suppressing military generals would bring long-term peace and stability to the world.
As a result, we have all seen that although the Song Dynasty was unprecedentedly prosperous, its military equipment was ineffective, and in the end it could only be reduced to fish on the chopping board, to be slaughtered by others."
After hearing this, Tang He looked dissatisfied and said, "Do you think the Ming Dynasty will be the same as the former Song Dynasty? The Ming Dynasty did not value culture over military affairs. Since the emperor became emperor, he has always paid more attention to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies."
"Your Majesty attaches great importance to the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion because the remaining Yuan Yuan has not been destroyed." Han Du sneered, "And this is not the reason I want to talk about. In my opinion, the generals who continue to hang around in the Five Army Governor's Mansion are
There is no future. The reason is very simple. Can Yuan will be destroyed by the Ming Dynasty one day. Then there will be no more troubles, and the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion has spent too much money. My father-in-law, tell me, will the emperor change by then?
idea?"
Tang He was silent for a while. He didn't know what the emperor would do at this time.
There is no need to guess other things, just look at history and you will know. "The world is ruled by generals, and there will be peace without generals." If nothing else, Han Du's words are true. Since ancient times, regardless of the Qin and Han Dynasties,
In the Sui, Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties, I have never seen a few generals who could end up well. That is to say, the former Song Dynasty was a little better, "a glass of wine releases military power", and the others all raised their butcher's knives against military generals, "Kill!"
"Even if the emperor doesn't want to do this, the officials will urge him to do so." Han Du sneered, "In the former Song Dynasty, the civil servants could suppress the generals to death, and even dared to say that they shared the world with the emperor. Mr.
Do you think that today’s civil servants in the Ming Dynasty don’t have this idea?”
This is a class struggle that will never stop, and no one should want to stay out of it.
Han Du hopes Tang He can understand the seriousness of this matter.
I don't know if Tang He understood it or it was a coincidence, but he asked Han Du with a solemn look, "In your opinion, where is the way out for generals?"
Han Du suddenly smiled and said faintly: "There is no way out for the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies. Once the residual element is destroyed, no one will be willing to spend tens of thousands of dollars every year to support so many soldiers. No one's money is worth it."
It was blown by the strong wind. With so much money, wouldn't it be better to build a palace or repair a garden? Why should it be wasted in vain?"
"In your mind, I can only build palaces and gardens?"
Lao Zhu's bald voice sounded behind Han Du, who was so shocked that Han Du suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Han Du suddenly turned around and saw Lao Zhu in casual clothes.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why are you here?"
"Why, can't I come? If I didn't come, I wouldn't know that you were planning me behind your back. Tell me, why did I build a palace and a garden?"
Lao Zhu originally wanted to return to the palace, but he remembered something on the way and wanted to warn Tang He, so he came to the Xinguo Duke's Mansion. Lao Zhu didn't want to alarm too many people, so he didn't let anyone tell him.
Came in.
Who knew that as soon as he came in, he would hear Han Du talking nonsense.
