"In half a year, I hope to see that the country has many guard camps instead of a thousand useless forbidden troops."
The personnel of the escort camp are rotated, and there is no need to select them. They can just be drawn from each capital.
And Zhao Xi didn't say much nonsense, just said that.
How to do it depends on Lu Gong, Han Zhen and others, as well as the regulations and rules that have been drawn up long ago.
There is not a single illiterate person in the current guard camp, and the doctrines and regulations have become a part of their body over the years.
Now what Lu Gong and Han Zhen need to explain is how they dealt with interpersonal relationships when they went to Xinying...
This is more complicated than selecting and training troops.
In this way, Zhao Xi's plans since the beginning of the Southern Expedition have basically been carried out, and he can be considered to have some free time.
Zhao Xi can really calm down and experience how an emperor understands an empire from memorials.
Since ancient times, most of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were one or two emperors at the time of the founding of the country. The emperors who followed did not mean that genetic mutations caused the royal family to become less intelligent.
Rather, what he saw in his eyes was only what his ministers wanted him to see, and what he knew was only what his ministers wanted him to know.
People have their strengths and weaknesses, and their qualities are high and low, but it is more the atmosphere of a court that determines whether a talent can succeed.
After a hundred years of peace, the country and dynasty will naturally form different interest circles, and entanglements are inevitable, which also leads to the avoidance and hiding of ministers in memorials.
Nothing about the imperial court exists alone, and no memorial can simply be based on the facts.
But the ministers and workers only hope that the emperor will act according to their vision, especially in today's dynasty.
To be honest, being an emperor is actually very pitiful.
Innate imperial power is better said to be the decision-making power given to the emperor by his ministers, so that he can take the blame for everything.
Of course, the contest between the ministers and the emperor is about this: who will be the one to take the blame.
The memorial was very complicated. Just now we were considering the issues of Jieyan, Qingyan and the relationship with Daxia. The next one may be that a certain official's personal ethics will be impeached.
Just now, we were considering whether the salaries of Guangnan Road officials should be adjusted. Next, we talked about the management of the Yellow River...
Without clear responsibilities assigned to people, the result of doing things well or not is nothing more than the difference between being outside and being in government.
Even so, the ministers still had to submit these trivial matters to prepare for the emperor's decision.
Some memorials were given advice by the princes, some were left to the emperor, and some could not reach Chui Gong Hall at all... There is no clear standard for the classification of these memorials, and it all depends on the mood of the Zhengshi Hall.
Zhao Xi has seen the quarrels and judgments between neighbors, the debate over the deal with the Liao and Xia Kingdom, the verdict on death row, and the requisition of civilian service... He is really speechless.
Zhao Xi was busy like this, busy understanding from the memorials how to change the court and how to gradually establish different systems to change the current situation where everyone has rights but no one has responsibility.
For a while, he almost never went out of the palace, including the guard camp.
And Wang Zhongzheng and Li Xian have been taking turns going to the guard camp...
"Your Highness, the escort battalion sent to Hedong Route Army was attacked and Huang Xiang died..."
Li Xian's words made Zhao Xi stunned. It was neither a war nor a chaos. He was just doing business as an instructor. How could he die?
They have all experienced battles. During the Southern Expedition, no one in his escort battalion suffered any casualties, but at this time, they were actually killed.
"Tell it like it is!"
"Your Highness, I also listened to the soldiers' discussion yesterday. A letter from Hedong Road has arrived, and there is speculation about Huang Xiang's death. It is obviously an accident, but everyone suspects that he was killed..."
"Huang Xiang, a military soldier in the capital, is responsible for the training of soldiers on the roadside of Hedong, that is, the soldiers at Yanmen Pass in Daizhou. Since Yanmen Pass has been known to the state since its surrender, all of them have passed through the customs and sold private goods, and they have frequent exchanges with Xijing of the Liao Dynasty."
"Although the guard camp knew about this matter, they all followed Lu's teachings and did not participate or intervene. However, because the training method was different from normal, the soldiers had little free time, so the acting governor had no one to carry the goods for him. Although it was less than two
month, but the dispute has not ended..."
Needless to say, Zhao Xi can guess the rest.
The guard camp was ordered by the imperial court, and it was normal for local officials to obey and disobey it, but with the guard camp there, they naturally did not dare to blatantly do so.
The best thing to do at this time is to win over...
However, after years of indoctrination in the guard camp, as well as the livelihood of the guard camp headquarters, the labor remuneration of the family, including the prospects for one's own future, they will not be tempted by the small profits from selling private goods.
So...they are really brave!
Zhao Xi was surprised, why didn't he see this memorial? Didn't Daizhou report it? Impossible! The memorial must be reported.
The magistrates of the imperial dynasty will not care about a capital head, even if they are already high-ranking, as long as they are military generals, no one will care about the death of one or two. I am afraid that even if all fifty people in the capital are dead, no one will care.
.
When such a memorial is submitted, it is just a word reading.
But this is a soldier of the guard camp! Even Daizhou wouldn't dare not retaliate... I'm afraid your husband-in-law thinks it's okay for half of them to die like this, right?
Are you testing my bottom line?
The overseas guard camp is not meant for them to collude with others, nor is it meant for you to play tricks and harm like this...
"Notify all the escort battalions to get ready and set off at 10:00 tomorrow morning, fully armed, carrying ten basic ammunition, including tiger squat cannon. Rush to Daizhou!"
Maybe it seems unnecessary to everyone. There is really no need to mobilize troops and mobilize people like this. But Zhao Xi doesn't think so.
After so many years, the soldiers of the guard camp have finally gained a sense of pride, self-confidence, and dignity.
If this matter is left unsolved, it is likely that another consciousness will arise...
When Zhao Xi went out this time, he did not say hello to the court, but only spoke to his father and family members.
Zhao Xi is really fed up and fed up! He also hates this kind of boring temptation.
Since you want to know my reaction, I will give you one reaction for you to see.
The copper and iron mines are already profitable, woolen textiles are beginning to take shape, and the cement factory is also producing finished products...
You’ve given everything you can, what else do you want? Test it? Hum! Let’s just test it out.
Zhao Xi also wanted to see what would happen to the court now if he did this?
"Your Highness, think twice!"
Before setting off, Lu Gongzhu and Han Zhen had already persuaded him.
"Think twice? Professor Lu, Professor Han, what do I need to think about? Do you think that the thousand soldiers sent out by the guard camp will only come back with 500 in the end? Or should I wait to chill the hearts of the soldiers and let them have the pride they just had?
, was killed over and over again?"
"Yes, he is just a soldier. Whether he is in the court or even in the guard camp, it shouldn't be a big deal. Is that really the case?"
"This is the first one. From Dang Xi's point of view, this is just the beginning. If nothing is done, there will be second and third ones...and it will be endless! Don't believe it! In the end, there will be no soldiers in the guard camp anymore.
If you dare to go out, or if you do go out, it will be perfunctory and you will survive the half-year deadline!"
What may seem like a small thing will have an impact that is not as simple as the death of a soldier.
