Regardless of any individual, if he hears that his superiors are planning to lay off the entire organization where he works, he will instantly become anxious.
But Su Zhenting was just stunned for a moment, and then said: "There is indeed no need for the existence of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion."
Li Chen's plan to abolish the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army was definitely not without purpose.
What happened this time cannot be said to have no impact at all, but it just allowed Li Chen to advance his plan.
The Fifth Army Governor's Office must be eliminated, otherwise this institution will directly affect the future control of the army by the East Palace.
"The Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army was formerly the Generalissimo's Mansion of the General Army created by Emperor Taizu when he founded the country. It was later renamed the Privy Council, and then the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, which continues to this day."
Li Chen explained: "At first, this organization could only assist Emperor Taizu in supervising the world's troops. It was regarded as the highest command system of the Qin Empire's army. After all, at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, not only were all walks of life waiting to be prospered, but also people from all over the country
The remnants of the previous dynasty, the bandits and bandits who have turned into bandits, and the remaining sectarian forces in various places all need the army to pacify them, and Emperor Taizu cannot deal with them one by one because he has so many things to do, so such an organization is necessary."
"However, no one or anything can remain unchanged. As the current situation changed, the powers of the Fifth Military Governor's Office were overly large, which later led to the strengthening of the authority of the Ministry of War. To put it bluntly, it was actually a decentralization of power to prevent the military from becoming too powerful.
"
Looking at Su Zhenting, Li Chen said sincerely: "I can tell you frankly that the Qin Empire has been emphasizing civility and suppressing military force since Taizu. The fundamental reason is that the imperial power must balance the power of ministers, and rebellion by civil servants cannot succeed.
, but the rebellion of military generals is a serious danger to the country, so such a basic national policy will be changed in my hands, but its essence will not change."
Li Chen's words were extremely bold.
You must know that he is facing Su Zhenting, the soul pillar of the Qin Empire's military.
Li Chen frankly said that he would continue to suppress military generals, which was tantamount to telling Su Zhenting that he would not give him too much power.
If Su Zhenting has any selfish motives, it will inevitably arouse his resistance.
And Li Chen didn't intend to say this directly when he was on his way here.
Because Su Zhenting said that the Fifth Army Commander's Office should be abolished, Li Chen changed his mind temporarily.
Sure enough, after thinking carefully, Su Zhenting nodded and agreed: "Indeed, if Zhao Xuanji is a military general, then even if the Holy Emperor wakes up this time, he will not be able to save the country."
Li Chen nodded happily and said: "This truth is very simple and can be understood by just one person. However, being in a situation involving countless interests will inevitably lead to confusion. I am very pleased that the general understands the righteousness so well.
"
"In the design of this palace, the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion will be divided into three."
"The first department is the commander-in-chief's office, responsible for the transfer, promotion, defense changes, training, and operations of local military posts and local armies across the country."
"The second department is the staff office, responsible for the formulation of military combat plans, officer assessments, and military merit assessments."
"The third department is the Logistics Office, which is in charge of military pay, food, grass, baggage, ordnance and equipment."
"The General Office is nominally headed by the General Office, but according to their different divisions of labor, the three major departments restrict and cooperate with each other. For example, promotion and defense changes are planned by the General Office. After approval by the Staff Office, officers below the rank of captain can make your internal decisions. Deputy Commander
The rank of envoy and commander must be finally submitted to the imperial court for review before being appointed.”
