Although Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng were shocked, they could sit still.

They have been in officialdom for many years and have never seen anything like this.

They were confident that they would remember everything Kou Ji said.

Cao Wei and others had a bad premonition, but out of shame, they did not ask for paper records.

After taking in everyone's expressions, Kou Ji said with a smile: "Our military system in the Song Dynasty is too complicated, which is why many problems have arisen. Therefore, after discussing with many colleagues in the Privy Council and the officials, I decided to make it more complicated and simpler.

The first is the department number.

The number of soldiers and horses in the Song Dynasty was so complicated that many people couldn't remember them all, which led to a lot of jokes.

So after discussing with the officials, I felt that the number of soldiers and horses in the Song Dynasty could be streamlined.

After being streamlined, the Forbidden Army of the Song Dynasty no longer used the previous designation but a new designation.

They are Four Towns, Four Wings, Two Tigers, and Two Fortresses.

The four towns are Zhendong, Zhennan, Zhenbei and Zhenxi.

The four Yongs are Yong'an, Yongping, Yongding and Yongxing.

The two tigers are Tiger Ben and Tiger Power respectively.

The two fortresses are the static stop and the bao stop.

The above numbers are all forbidden army numbers.

The number of soldiers is fifty thousand.

A total of 600,000 troops.

They guarded the southeast, northwest and four borders of the Song Dynasty.

Among them, Zhendong and Zhennan are both naval forces.

Zhenbei, Huben, sits in the north.

Zhenxi, Huwei, sit in the west.

Jingsai, Baosai, located on the border of Song and Liao Dynasties.

The four armies of An, Ping, Ding, and Xing guard Xining, Taiyuan, Bozhou, and Yongzhou respectively.

In addition to the above 600,000 forbidden troops, there are three other forbidden troops stationed in Bianjing City.

They are Yulongwei, Tianwu and Pengri.

Among them, the full number of Yulong Guards is 10,000.

Tianwu, holding the sun, each with a full quota of 50,000 soldiers.

In order to prevent the Dragon Guards, Tianwu and Pengri from staying in Bianjing for a long time, they were training and could not defend the imperial city.

Every three years, 10,000 elite soldiers are transferred from each imperial army to supplement the Yulong Guard. The original 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Yulong Guard are distributed to various armies to make up for the vacancies.

Every ten years, 100,000 elite soldiers are drawn from the various imperial armies to supplement the Tianwu and Pengri armies. Soldiers and horses from the original Tianwu and Pengri armies are sent to various armies to make up for the vacancies.

This move is to ensure that the garrison in Bianjing City and the local troops in various places maintain strong combat effectiveness at all times."

Speaking of this, Kou Ji paused.

Zhong Shiheng no longer cared about his face and ordered the eunuch standing beside him to get paper and pen for him.

Kou Ji's simple words gave more information than anything he had said before.

Zhong Shiheng can remember it in his head, but the military system that Kou Ji mentioned has completely broken the inherent military system of the Song Dynasty. The inherent knowledge in his mind is not enough for him to distinguish the rationality of it.

He must write it down and analyze it carefully, clause by clause.

Then when we discuss it later, we have something to say.

Some people may think that Kou Ji’s explanation is very simple, but why does He Shiheng think it contains a lot of information?

That's because everything Kou Ji said was based on the existing military system of the Song Dynasty.

New numbers, new equipment of soldiers and horses, the deployment of generals, the dispatch of soldiers and horses, and the deployment of soldiers and horses all need to be taken into consideration.

More importantly, the new army system proposed by Kou Ji only integrated 710,000 forbidden troops, and there are still more forbidden troops that have not been integrated. How to place these forbidden troops is also a big problem.

Lu Yijian, Wang Zeng and others were all frowning and thinking secretly.

They were analyzing Kou Ji's words line by line, their minds spinning rapidly, but they had no intention of interrupting.

After a pause, Kou Ji continued: "After the Forbidden Army is reorganized, the three government offices and the Privy Council will be merged into one place. From now on, there will be no three government offices, only the Privy Council.

The Privy Council is in charge of dispatching troops and dispatching generals."'

As soon as Kou Ji said this, everyone present, except Zhao Zhen, almost frowned into the character "Sichuan".

At the beginning of the founding of the Song Dynasty, the reason why the three Yamen and the Privy Council were set up to control the troops and generals respectively was because they were afraid that the power of dispatching soldiers and generals would fall into the hands of one person.

Now that General Kou Ji had all the power of dispatching troops under the Privy Council, they naturally felt uncomfortable.

Kou Ji looked at everyone and continued: "From now on, the Privy Council will only be in charge of the Imperial Army."

When Lu Yijian and others heard this, they looked confused and did not understand the meaning of Kou Ji's words.

Kou Ji added: "After the Privy Council takes over the three yamen, it will confiscate all the tiger talismans. In non-war times, the imperial army must be dispatched through the Privy Council's military seal. One seal is divided into two parts, with the official holding half and the privy council holding the other half.

If it is necessary to dispatch troops and generals, the two seals need to be combined into one, and the troop dispatching document must be stamped before dispatching.

During wartime, when the imperial army is dispatched, the officials will issue tiger talismans at all levels."

Lu Yijian and others all stared wide-eyed.

The final result of Kou Ji's move was that Zhao Zhen truly gained military power in the world, and at the same time, Zhao Zhen and the Privy Council jointly held military power.

The current privy envoy is Kou Ji, which means that Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji will share military power.

What are the two doing now?

innovation!

What will you do next?

Completely revolutionize the Song Dynasty!

Now when the two of them are innovating the military system, they firmly hold the military power in their hands. What is their purpose?

Lu Yijian and others knew this well.

They are preparing for future innovations.

Lu Yijian and others are almost certain that Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji will definitely make concessions in other aspects of the military system in the subsequent discussions.

But on this point, the two of them will never make the slightest concession.

Kou Ji guessed what Lu Yijian and others were thinking through their reactions, but without further explanation, he continued: "The above is the military system involving the Privy Council.

Next I will talk about the military system involved in the Ministry of War.

Once the new formation of the Forbidden Army is completed, many Forbidden Army officers will inevitably be left behind.

At that time, the remaining Forbidden Army officers and soldiers will be incorporated into various garrison armies.

We, the Song Dynasty, set up a garrison on every road we established.

The quota is 10,000 people.

It is controlled by the Ministry of War.

Military pay is distributed by the Ministry of War.

Each chamber, vassal, government office, city guard, and rural troops and horses were all abolished.

Each prefecture, state, and county has established government soldiers, state soldiers, and county soldiers.

The number of government soldiers is 1,000, the number of state soldiers is 800, and the number of county soldiers is 500.

The above military forces are all under the jurisdiction of each prefecture, state, and county yamen, and each prefecture, state, and county yamen also have corresponding officials.

The registration belongs to the Ministry of War, but the military salary is distributed by the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the salary is the same as that of the three-class yamen servants in each line.

After the three-level troops and horses of the prefecture, state, and county were established, the remaining troops and horses were transferred to the three squads of each government office.

The number of government officials in the third class of the county government office is set at thirty.

The number of people in the state government office is set at ninety.

The number of people in the government office is also ninety.

After replenishing the three squads of government officials, the remaining soldiers and horses will be returned to their original places and returned to the countryside."

When Lu Yijian and the others heard this, they couldn't react at all. Their brows were knitted together, and their minds were in a mess. The more they thought about it, the more confused they became.

The proposal put forward by Kou Ji has a great conflict with the existing military system and official system. It is very serious.

Every conflict that collides in their minds can form a huge spark, and eventually the sparks join together and turn into a sea of ​​fire, burning their heads into a ball of paste.

"Help...help me get the pen and ink..."

Lu Yijian couldn't bear it anymore, so he called the eunuch beside him to help him get pen and ink.
To be continued...
