Even if we don’t tell you everything, we are still good friends.
Fu Bi and Zhao Xi had seen through what Han Qi and Wen Yanbo were doing, and they both knew it, but they passed it off so lightly.
This made Han Qi and Wen Yanbo feel like punching cotton.
The reason why the officials arranged for them to be responsible for the transfer of the imperial troops to civilians was because Wen Yanbo was the privy envoy and Han Qi was the husband-in-law who was familiar with the four states of Yunying.
I thought that they should be responsible for the distribution of interests among the four states in Yunying, but in the end, the government sent the royal agent Zhao Qin...~a woman.
Not counting this, the key point is that the state-run temple, Gongfang City, including the royal family, directly authorized Su Ziyuan to be responsible for the affairs of the four states of Yunying.
He, Han Qi and Wen Yanbo, only have the responsibility of arranging the imperial army...
I thought that letting the imperial troops wander on Hedong Road under the pretense that the government affairs must be completed would always cause some chaos.
The chaos caused by these forbidden troops allowed the court to return to its original position of guarding the generals, and then started disputes in the court, forming a great civil and military dispute between the country and the dynasty, which ultimately stifled the rise of the generals in the country and changed the situation of the four states of Yunying.
Distribution plan.
As for preparing the orbital troops for war and keeping the new garrison troops on guard, it's not that they didn't take it into consideration, they deliberately left the door open for the forbidden troops.
The door was blocked by management...
"This cannot be done for no reason! I didn't expect Cai Que's involvement!"
Wen Yanbo was a little frustrated. He and Han Qi had racked their brains to figure this out, but the result was a complete failure. It was indeed a complete failure.
"Kuanfu, from this battle of Yanmen, I have a deep understanding that today's generals in the country are very different from those in the past. After some time, when the generals of this new army grow up, there will no longer be civil servants to restrain the generals.
The structure of the imperial court has changed! The official family is following the old path of the previous dynasty, and it will inevitably lead to chaos in the Song Dynasty!"
"The Song Dynasty can be as prosperous as it is today because Taizu established the ancestral system of literary control. Now, the officials are vigorously supporting military generals, and they will definitely repeat the mistakes of the previous dynasty. We cannot let it develop!"
Wen Yanbo felt that what Han Qi said was nonsense. This was not a court, so why did he shout such high slogans?
It seems...it seems that Hao Zhigui is also scared.
Whether you have selfish motives or not is not up to you to say, it depends on how the officials view it.
Are they worried that the walls have ears? Maybe. None of them know whether Taiyuan Mansion has any information from the Imperial City Division, even if they are the only two people in the house...
Wen Yanbo also felt that his words were abrupt. He didn't know how to answer Han Qi's slogan.
"Zhigui, I heard that the rich minister said that the official theory on the coordination of civil and military affairs is like a person walking on two legs, both of which are indispensable. Isn't this Yanmen victory basically led by military generals?"
"As you said, today's military generals are very different. Maybe this difference is good for our Song Dynasty? Why should we worry about the shortcomings of the previous dynasty? Wen Gongzhi, Wu Anbang, this is the atmosphere of a prosperous age."
"As for the disasters caused by the previous dynasty, Yan Bo thinks there is no need to worry!"
"Why do you say this? Mr. Kuan, the reason why the previous dynasties died due to their strength was because the generals had too much power. If we didn't have this concern, why would we bother to do this?"
"Brother Zhigui, you are so stubborn! Yanbo is in charge of the Xifu. He certainly knows that the source of the current strength of the Song Dynasty's army...it is all based on military equipment, that is, firearms."
"The ammunition for the regular equipment of the new garrison is generally reserved based on the seven-day war period. In other words, once there is a war, if the court does not issue ammunition within seven days, any army in the country will not be as capable as the original Forbidden Army.
.”
"Not only that, Workshop City conducts an inspection and inventory every six months, and even compares the ammunition numbers... This kind of number is unique to Workshop City, or unique to firearms workshops, like a secret code. There is no military commander at all.
The basis for rebellion.”
Speaking of good things, Wen Yanbo is no worse than Han Qi. He is not just shouting slogans, but using examples.
They knew each other well. Han Qi would never be unclear about this situation.
On the surface, they were conducting court affairs. Even if the measures were improper and no chaos was caused, the officials would not deal with their husband-in-law at will.
Secretly, say some high-sounding words, give yourself a favor, give the officials a face, and this matter should be over.
"From this point of view, it is reasonable for military generals to benefit from the mineral resources of Yunying Four Prefectures?"
As soon as this topic was mentioned, it immediately turned into two husbands discussing government affairs...
"Of course, brother Zhigui, don't forget that according to the imperial court's plan, even if the interests belong to the military, they belong to the Privy Council. After the Privy Council handles it, they will be allocated to the garrison troops in the four states, and they will be the same as those of the former military envoys.
The system is completely different!”
Han Qi stared at Wen Yanbo, his eyes rolling... It seemed that Wen Yanbo was also worried?
"Kuanfu, now the imperial troops are transferred to civilians, their fields are divided, and they receive military training. This is the way of the government military system. If things go on like this, some groups will inevitably be formed in specific areas, groups with military literacy and combat capabilities, which is worrying.
!”
"It doesn't matter! Judging from the resettlement and management plan, after the Forbidden Army is converted to civilians, it will be completely separated from the military system and will be under the jurisdiction of the local government. It is completely different from the New Army."
"If there is only one military force in one place, it may be possible to form a group to fight against the imperial court. If there are two forces with hatred in one place, this is the best way to check and balance."
Indeed, the civil servants, the forbidden army, and the new army are basically a three-party check and balance, not to mention the supervisory office, coupled with the orbital soldiers that are almost independent of the court... The more complex the forces, the more beneficial it is to the court's rule.
Continuing to put it this way, it proves their idea that they allowed the Forbidden Army to wander around for the sake of the imperial court... They allowed the Forbidden Army to wander around and cause chaos, and then the New Army suppressed it, which led to the formation of hatred between the New Army and the Forbidden Army...
Yes! Even when facing officials, they both have excuses.
Han Qi suddenly drank some tea and wrote on the desk: Is it necessary to submit an explanation?
Wen Yanbo also made the same move: just talk about the way of checks and balances!
"The imperial court has a lot of affairs. We cannot continue to be delayed on Hedong Road because of the placement of the imperial troops. We should find a way to complete this matter as soon as possible."
When it comes to ability, both Han Qi and Wen Yanbo are not lacking. They must really work hard and be worthy of their reputation as husband-in-law.
Originally, the number of the imperial troops they exiled was not large, otherwise it would really cause chaos and they would be unable to survive.
Soon, everything was on track and straightened out.
Since it is a waste forbidden army, there are not many bloody ones, and there are really not many who dare to resist the imperial court, not to mention that they have lost the response of the civil servants in the court.
There are two memorials on Zhao Xi's desk. One was jointly submitted by Han Qi and Wen Yanbo, analyzing the checks and balances of the local and state governments.
The other one is the Imperial City Department's record of the private conversation between Han Qi and Wen Yanbo...
Afraid? Whatever! If they knew that neither Fu Bi nor themselves agreed that too many spies would influence government affairs, they would definitely not be so high-profile.
Whatever! Some awe is still a good thing.
"Zhongzheng, you must choose someone who is absolutely loyal to the courtiers. In addition, you are directly responsible for the courtiers' reports. All reports are kept separately and must not be leaked. No one has the right to read them unless ordered by me!"
