Chapter 1102 The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn’t stop (4)
When Prime Minister Li Jiu heard what Shu King Qian Mingyi said, he immediately echoed: "The king is right, when these things happen in the country, it is those European countries that feel the power of our Shu Kingdom.
Through this despicable method, they wanted to alienate the court and the people.
The ministers and others focused their main energy on supporting the war in the Hongshanling area and failed to deal with this matter in time.
I hope that the crime will be meritorious, and the cabinet will definitely handle this matter."
When Prime Minister Li Jiu heard what King Qian Mingyi said, he knew that this matter was caused by European countries.
When he heard the news, his heart was pounding and he calmed down again.
If some officials pushed the people too hard or failed to educate the people well, this incident would have occurred.
The responsibility of the cabinet cannot be shied away from him. As the prime minister of the cabinet, it is the best result to take the blame and resign. It is even more likely that he will be jailed behind the back of King Qian Mingyi of Shu.
King Qian Mingyi of Shu will reorganize the officialdom with great courage.
The Kingdom of Shu is in the midst of a war with the Kingdom of Rui, and King Qian Mingyi of Shu will never allow an incident in the officialdom to cause a fire in the backyard.
Now it is the deliberate efforts of various European countries that have caused a storm of public opinion in Shu.
The cabinet's responsibility is just for oversight, so its responsibility will be much smaller.
Prime Minister Li Jiu asked for meritorious service. When the situation was critical, Shu King Qian Mingyi would not touch him as Prime Minister, causing turmoil in the officialdom.
But he must also show his ability to stabilize the domestic situation.
If you can't even handle the aftermath well, it means your ability is not good enough and your morality is not up to the mark.
King Qian Mingyi of Shu was a little anxious about this matter, knowing that if it was not handled smoothly, it would lead to domestic turmoil.
Prime Minister Li Jiu had a better attitude in admitting his mistake. He had not anticipated this incident, and he cannot blame the cabinet for not handling it in time.
Officials have been the same from ancient times to the present. They are more active than anyone else when it comes to carving up benefits, but when they take on responsibilities, they immediately stay away.
When something happens, low-level officials cover up. This is their instinct.
The matter is too big to cover up, and these officials must also bear responsibility, but there is no need to blame the cabinet.
Qian Mingyi, the king of Shu, waved his hand and said: "The Prime Minister has a good attitude in admitting his mistakes, and I will give you the opportunity to make meritorious deeds.
The cabinet must handle the follow-up matters well and prevent further trouble."
Prime Minister Li Jiu bowed and saluted: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for giving me this opportunity. I will definitely handle the follow-up matters."
Du Zhenxiong saw King Qian Mingyi of Shu dealing with the follow-up of this matter.
He bit the bullet and stood up and continued to remind: "Your Majesty may not have read all the information. This matter not only involves the people, but also the military."
King Qian Mingyi of Shu heard Du Zhenxiong's reminder that this matter also involved the military.
He immediately looked for information and briefly scanned the information he had not read.
Governor He Feng heard that the military was involved, and there was a slight sweat on his forehead.
Prime Minister Le Jiu is in charge of the cabinet, and there has never been any major omissions.
It is also difficult for the imperial court to completely control public opinion.
Due to the lack of money in Shu, the circulation of newspapers was not large, and there was only one large newspaper.
The new radio program can only be heard in Warsaw.
As long as the new broadcast towers in the empire are built on mountains, their signals can cover the whole country.
The capital of the empire was the territory of most of the European countries.
Due to various reasons, the empire's public opinion was easily controlled by external forces.
This is why Qian Mingyi, the king of Shu, was very angry, but he picked it up high and put it down gently to many civil servants in the cabinet.
But the military is completely different. The military is a closed place.
There are also problems with the soldiers, and the Shu Kingdom is in big trouble.
The Shu army can now be infiltrated by a certain country, which shows that the governor's office is incapable of controlling the army well.
Once the Shu Kingdom becomes hostile to this country, no one can tell whether the army will defect on the battlefield.
If King Qian Mingyi of Shu felt that there was a problem with the army, he would definitely be cautious in foreign wars.
At the same time, in order to ensure the prosperity of Shu, the army must be purged.
All generals who cannot prove their loyalty will be purged.
This kind of purge will do great harm to the military's combat capabilities.
Governor He Feng only hoped that the situation with the army would not be as severe as he thought.
The Shu army was originally weaker than the armies of other European countries.
Officers and soldiers are similar in all countries.
They have only been separated from the empire for a few years, and the gap in military quality is not big at all.
But whether a country has money, whether it can maintain high investment in the military and ensure that the military's combat capabilities continue to grow, is a very important link.
Shu is an agricultural country, and an agricultural country is a poor country.
The previous investment in the army can only ensure that the combat capability of the army does not decline and that the generals keep up with the most advanced warfare.
It is impossible to improve the military's combat strength without the support of a large amount of money.
Just the high-intensity actual combat training is very difficult for the Shu army.
The Shu army is now on a par with the Swedish army, so it would be better to rely entirely on the empire's weapons and equipment.
The advantages of Shu's weapons and equipment and the advantages of Rui's personnel offset each other.
The war was not one-sided.
The governor, He Feng, was in a panic and waited for the development of the situation.
King Qian Mingyi of Shu found a report related to the army, and he read it very slowly.
The army is the foundation for the Shu king's royal family to live and work, and there must be no mistakes.
After reading the information, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"The Metropolitan Governor's Office has done a pretty good job, and the army's loyalty and patriotism education has also been carried out very well."
When the Governor He Feng heard what Qian Mingyi said, his heart dropped.
King Shu Qian Mingyi changed his style and said in a stern tone: "We old guys are a little conservative in our thinking, while young people are more active in their thinking.
This is all excusable.
The backbone officers of the army, who were dissatisfied with the court's policies, just expressed their dissatisfaction through letters. This is already an excellent situation.
We cannot wait until the soldiers pick up their guns and remonstrate before repenting."
The Grand Governor He Feng originally thought that nothing happened, but now he suddenly realized that this matter was not a big deal.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Young officers are the backbone of the army. If a large number of young officers are dissatisfied with the court's policies.
It is possible for them to actually carry out military revolt or even directly rebel.
The imperial court will be extremely cautious about any unexpected movements of the army.
After King Qian Mingyi of Shu said this, he handed the information to the little eunuch Huang Mao.
"Circuit the information and let all the ministers take a look at how far the situation has developed.
After we said goodbye, I still looked like I had everything under control."
After the yellow-haired eunuch received the order, he immediately circulated the relevant information to the ministers.
Metropolitan Governor He Feng was the first person to obtain relevant information.
These materials are mainly letters written by some young officers to King Qian Mingyi of Shu and the Governor-General.
Although the contents of the letters are not uniform, the general contents are very clear.
They sent a letter to the King of Shu and the Governor-General. The court wanted to train troops, but it went the wrong way.
One of the purposes of the empire's weapons support for Shu was to test the performance of weapons through war.
When Shu receives this mission, it must complete it well.
This kind of petty defensive operation can neither achieve the purpose of testing weapons nor complete the purpose of troop training.
By training troops in this way, all you get is a group of cowards huddled in fortifications.
Only truly fierce battlefields can temper truly strong soldiers.
Tough flowers and plants cannot be grown in a greenhouse. They will soon die after being exposed to wind and rain.
The relationship between the Shu royal family and the major European royal families was not harmonious.
Only by winning convincingly can other countries be deterred.
The longer time passes, the more weaknesses will appear in Shu.
Switzerland will take the opportunity to form alliances with other countries.
Once Rui chooses to form an alliance with Chu or join the four-nation alliance led by Gui, Shu's situation will become very dangerous.
Young officers expressed their ambitions in their letters. They were not afraid of sacrifice and wanted to go to the front line and make contributions.
After reading the information, Grand Governor He Feng ignored the other people who were reading the information and directly expressed his opinion.
"Your Majesty, I observed these details. Some of the letters are written in a very immature way, and the views raised are also somewhat ridiculous.
But he really spoke from the bottom of his heart.
There is also a type of articles that analyze issues and the arguments in them are very unique.
Some people's considerations of the current situation are clearer than Chen's.
If there are one or two capable men in the army who can surpass me, I will be very happy.
It is hard for me to believe that there are a large number of people who are better than me, and that I cannot hold the position of governor at all.
From this information, I can infer that these officers have begun to form a group, and they use this method to show their strength to the court."
When the Grand Governor He Feng said these words, he felt extremely bitter in his heart.
This shows that the Governor's control over the army is not so perfect.
The military has problems getting out of control at any time.
Chief of General Staff Zhao Zhifang, he followed up and said: "Your Majesty, I have discovered a problem that is not very obvious.
The officers who submitted the letter were all Han officers.
These people acted a little impatient, but their loyalty to the king was obvious to all.
On the contrary, officers with Chinese indigenous origins did not blindly choose to submit a letter.
I think this problem is more serious than the officer's letter.
There was a real problem in the army, and the king issued an order.
Even if the leading officer still struggles, the soldiers will never help others.
The Han people would do this, but the recognition of the king by the indigenous people may not be so high.
Some of the indigenous people recruited into the army were thornheads.
I suggest that the plan be implemented as soon as possible to prevent changes if it is delayed."
When King Qian Mingyi of Shu heard the suggestion from Chief of General Staff Zhao Zhifang, his heart suddenly pounded.
Chief of General Staff Zhao Zhifang's speech was so inspiring that King Qian Mingyi of Shu immediately put an end to his idea of dealing with some officers who had submitted letters to rectify the bad habits in the army.
What Chief of General Staff Zhao Zhifang reminded us is very simple.
Don't look at the young officers in the army. They shout loudly and have some conflicts with the court's strategy.
But they are indeed loyal to the emperor and patriotic. Without the support of this ideal, they only want to get promoted and make a fortune. There is no need to do such a risky thing as petitioning.
Young officers can arrest a few typical cases, but they must not be able to affect a large area.
These young officers are all Han officers, and once they are affected.
The mainstream officers of the Shu army will become Hanized indigenous people.
Everyone in the imperial court went crazy, so they chose to hand over the army to the indigenous people.
Those who are not of my race must have different minds.
These localized natives will also have a glass ceiling in their lives.
Sinicization is just to facilitate the rule, not to hand over the rule to them.
At that time, the imperial court chose to recruit some indigenous people into the army.
The Kingdom of Shu is not like some countries in that they only attract children from good families.
The Shu State selectively absorbed some of the thorns with evil intentions and strictly monitored them.
The Shu army was the weakest in Europe at the time, and the purpose of absorbing these thorns was to recruit cannon fodder.
Now that Shu has received support from the empire, the casualties are not as severe as previously expected.
The casualties of these stabbings were not serious, but they were promoted for their merit.
Chief of General Staff Zhao Zhifang suggested following the ideas of some young officers and dealing with these indigenous people who may have problems at any time through war.
King Qian Mingyi of Shu fell into silence. He found that not only the young officers, but also some people in this study supported expanding the scale of the war.
He said in a calm tone: "The young officer just made some suggestions to the king and the governor's office.
They should be dissatisfied with the imperial court's progress in the Hongshanling area.
It is understandable that young people are arrogant and think that they can do better than others.
Check whether these young people are bewitched by foreign forces.
If it was just out of righteous indignation, the Governor-General would explain to them the future policy of the imperial court.
If you are bewitched by foreign forces, help foreign forces do things.
That must be dealt with seriously, and these bugs must not be left in the army."
Chief of General Staff Zhao Zhifang heard Shu King Qian Mingyi say this.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! He knew that King Qian Mingyi of Shu chose to pick up the young officer high and put it down gently.
This incident can be characterized as young people being ignorant, or it can be characterized as young officers trying to force a woman to have a baby.
It all depends on how King Qian Mingyi of Shu views this matter.
The current situation in Shu makes it impossible to carry out a general purge of officers.
If the imperial court really does this, the Shu army, which has just regained some confidence due to the war in the Hongshanling area, will immediately fall apart.
King Qian Mingyi of Shu just wanted to maintain the authority of the royal family and definitely did not want to collapse the Shu army.
Unable to use strong tactics to fight against the young officer's ideas, Shu King Qian Mingyi's only option was to compromise.
Governor He Feng glared fiercely at Chief of General Staff Zhao Zhifang.
The two of them have different philosophies. Governor He Feng seeks stability in his work and is not so radical.
He heard the words of Shu King Qian Mingyi, although he did not say them out now, overturning the previous strategic decision.
But the attitude of Shu King Qian Mingyi has definitely changed.
The war between Shu and Rui is about to escalate.
Governor He Feng believed that there must be someone behind the scenes to promote these things that suddenly happened in the army.
He previously judged that some European countries wanted to escalate the war between Shu and Rui.
Public opinion is obviously a battle between various forces.
Even if the Metropolitan Governor is a waste, he will not know anything about what is happening in the army.
It was obvious that someone was behind this action, and it must be a high-level official in the Shu Kingdom.
Control the intensity of things, maintain the fight without breaking, and each side has steps to go down.
If foreign forces intervened, it would definitely not be so troublesome.
Governor He Feng previously thought that civil servants were causing trouble, but he now discovered that Chief of General Staff Zhao Zhifang was the most suspicious.
He had been purchasing supplies in the empire before, and now he had to go back to deal with this matter.
Governor He Feng lost this time, but the matter was not over yet.
