Among all the distinguished nobles in the dynasty, no one spoke easily.
Cao Su's "asking for advice" is more like a test. The risks and rewards are not directly proportional. If it doesn't speak to Cao Su's heart, the gain will outweigh the loss.
"Why aren't you talking?"
Cao Su was a little unhappy.
Since the enfeoffment of Queen Yan, the people under his command have become more and more restrained. There are not many people who can talk to him normally. Many people are trembling in front of him and dare not take a breath.
"I started to call the names without saying anything. There must be something in the civil and military belly of the court, right?" Cao Su glanced at the whole audience. The ministers of the Military Machinery Pavilion looked calmly, because they knew that they would not be called by Cao Su, but other
It’s hard to say for the ministers.
"Shu Zheng, why don't you tell me about it?"
Cao Su took the roll call, and the first one he called was a young second-grade official who wanted to confront him. After he was called by Cao Su, he awkwardly left his seat and came to Cao Su's seat, preparing to be serious.
Dao Ming point of view.
Cao Su directly stopped him: "There is no need for such complicated etiquette. I heard that you are a disciple of Yuan Zong, who was also my old boss back then. Since you are such a famous scholar in the world, you should understand after thinking about it.
The situation in the world."
There is no need for some false etiquette, Cao Su so straightforwardly pointed out the importance of "pragmatism".
When Yu Shuzheng heard this, he had no choice but to hand over his hands and simply said: "I would like to report to King Yan, in my opinion, the many rebellious parties in the south are not worth mentioning. Now the southern country is experiencing heavy rains, and the elite of our army are waiting for work, and they serve the righteousness of the court. If the army is
Going south, the southern states will inevitably look down on the wind."
Yu Shuzheng was talking about righteousness, Cao Su held the court's righteousness, and whenever he was a teacher, he was a righteous teacher.
But is it possible to pacify the world just by relying on great righteousness? This seems to be too simplistic.
After Yu Shuzheng finished speaking, he looked at Cao Su with anxious eyes. Cao Su remained silent and did not say whether it was good or bad.
After a long while, Cao Su asked again: "Are there any specific measures?"
"This..." Yu Shuzheng was obviously not fully prepared. When Cao Su asked this question, he became even more panicked. Sweat was oozing out of his forehead, and he couldn't answer Cao Su's question for a while.
】
Cao Su looked disappointed. The ministers in the DPRK had been replaced and selected several times. The ranks of ministers were mixed, and their ability levels were also different.
In order to govern the great empire in the future, the ability level of these ministers... He pondered slightly, thinking about whether it was necessary to adjust the Imperial College and make appropriate reforms to the evaluation system of national officials.
"King Yan, I think that there are many rebellious parties in the southern states who have no name, and the rebellious parties are against each other. It is better to follow the strategy of distant relations and close attacks, first appease the hearts of the thieves who are farther away, commend them and reward them, and then gather strength
, violently attack the bandits who are relatively close to us, such as the three major bandits in Lingzhou, Jiangzhou, Tongzhou and other places."
In the depressing and uneasy atmosphere, a young general jumped out and tried to offer advice to Cao Su.
When Cao Su saw it, he turned out to be Luo Yushu, a young general with outstanding performance in the army that conquered the west. Luo Yushu was originally a disciple of the Chiyun Sect. As Cao Su had close contact with the major sects, there were also many warriors in the major sects.
Underhand pick-and-roll.
For these warriors, serving as servants in the court and practicing as a master are not conflicting matters.
The same is true for people like Luo Yushu. Not only can he obtain the training resources of his master, he can also get some benefits from Cao Su. And as his status increases, the resources he obtains from Cao Su also increase.
More and more, he became more and more inseparable from Cao Su, and now he has become a general of Cao's army who is loyal to Cao Su.
The warriors all came out to offer advice, which was originally a question to the civil officials.
When Cao Su heard this, he smiled and said: "Yushu is right, this 'distance and close attack' has been like this since ancient times. Although these rebellious parties are bandits who should be put down, at present, it seems that they are regarded as one of the princes.
The right strategy.”
Cao Su immediately responded and pointed out that Luo Yushu's strategy was a good one.
This made many civil servants look a little ugly. It can be said that they are not ready yet, but they can't be defeated by a group of warriors, right? The most unacceptable thing for many civil servants is a group of powerful warriors climbing on top of their heads.
To be domineering and blessed.
Of course, Cao Su is excluded. After all, Cao Su has a noble status, is the chosen one, and is the King of Yan in the world.
Soon, Ji Jiushao, a young academician, jumped out and expressed his opinion: "King Yan, I think General Luo Yushu is right, but I think that to deal with the rebellious party, 'diplomacy at a distance and attack at a close distance' is just a basis for the imperial court."
The strategy can even be said to be relatively simple and can be accomplished with just one edict. Real favors must not be given to the rebel army, otherwise it will create a situation where the enemy is too big to lose."
"Fart, what can a bunch of thieves do?"
The military generals suddenly became unhappy. Previously, these civil servants were silent, but now that they saw that their military officers were praised by King Yan, they couldn't sit still and were ready to go out to pick peaches?
The civil servants did not get angry with the vulgar people, but their expressions became solemn: "The southern states are now vaguely trying to unite. In the future, when our army goes south, the first priority is to train a river navy, because there are many rivers in the south.
Zeguo, the navy is the most important guarantee for entering Jiangzhou, Tongzhou, Ruzhou and other places in the future, including transporting grain, grass, ordnance, etc., and the safety of the waterways must be ensured."
"That's right, but now there is no suitable navy in the DPRK. The navy in the DPRK used to be at Pingjin and other ferries in Yuzhou. The training of the navy above the Luoshui River has always been average, and they are rarely deployed.
Useful."
"The imperial court does not have extra money and food to support the navy. The entire imperial court cannot find a few ships."
After all, the civil servants knew the situation better than the generals, and they soon started talking about it.
Cao Su listened one by one. His real purpose was to listen to everyone's words and see if such a salon-style brainstorming could further open up everyone's thinking.
Now the entire imperial court is lifeless and has no vitality at all.
He may not be able to quell rebellions all over the world before going to Tongtian City. He may leave this matter to Mingxiao in the future. Therefore, leaving Mingxiao with a more outstanding team of officials is the best he can do.
Method.
------------------
A few days later, the imperial court held a court meeting.
Cao Su established a new naval yamen, which was merged with the previous water transport yamen. After the organizational reorganization, the naval yamen conducted naval drills day and night on the Luoshui River and began to make adequate preparations for the army to move south.
This move could not be concealed from the people of the world, and the princes in the south were shocked by it. They never thought that Cao Su would take action so quickly.
The strength of the imperial court was far from what it used to be. It used to be that even if they fought a war, they couldn't even get the money and food together, but now that Cao Su has been fighting continuously, he can already have a sufficient supply of food and grass.
In August, the golden autumn season, Cao Su expanded the share of the newly established "Wu Dang Army". Fifty thousand elite soldiers and horses quietly moved from Shendu City to Fengtai Camp in the south, all the way to the junction of Shendu and Jiannan Road.
at.
Jiannan Road has always been a mountainous and rugged area with little information. In fact, the entire Jiannan Road today is still dominated by the power of Jianghu sects and aristocratic families.
Especially after Rongsheng took away a wave of Jiannan Dao's precious strength, Jiannan Dao's overall strength declined again.
Recently, the shadow of Tianxiahui has appeared in Jiannan Road.
I heard that Shi Daodao, the leader of the Tianxiahui clan thirty years ago, has returned to the world, and there seems to be another wave of bloodshed.
Everyone in the martial arts world is in danger, and the feeling that a storm is coming fills the entire Jiannan Dao martial arts world.
