After hearing Kou Ji's words, the civil and military officials in the court looked at him suspiciously.

Under the gaze of the civil and military officials of the court, Kou Ji smiled calmly and said, "In order to get more reward money in the future, I will definitely find an excuse to make the Liao Kingdom increase their annual coins..."

When the military officials heard this, they were excited.

Some among the civil servants frowned.

Zhang Dexiang hesitated and said, "If we find an excuse to ask the Liao Kingdom to increase their annual coins, will the Liao Dynasty go to war with the Song Dynasty because of this?"

When Zhu Neng heard this, he said carelessly, "Just move. If the Liao people dare to raise troops with me in the Song Dynasty, I will be the first to ask for help and rush to Yanyun to meet them. It just so happens that there are still more than half of the sixteen states in Yanyun."

If I didn’t get them back, I’ll go get them back easily.”

When the civil servants heard Zhu Neng mention the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, they did not refute Zhu Neng's words.

Since the imperial court has taken back five of the sixteen states of Yanyun, there is no reason to let the remaining areas remain in the hands of the Liao people.

In the future, it is inevitable to raise troops to take back the remaining places.

This is a general trend.

It is impossible for civil servants to pretend not to know things that almost everyone in the Song Dynasty knew.

"We'll talk about the war in Yanyun later. Since the officials are all gone, let's break up too."

Lu Yijian announced.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty left the palace in twos and threes.

After the dispersion of the dynasty.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty returned to their respective homes and began to spend their annual vacations.

Families and mansions rushed to each other to buy things and dismiss their servants.

I was busy until New Year's Eve.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty gathered in the palace again.

The night banquet in the palace was unprecedentedly grand.

Zhao Zhen not only invited the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to participate in this year's palace banquet, but also invited old men over sixty years old in Bianjing City to attend the palace banquet. Some people with limited legs and feet who were inconvenient to enter the palace were also sent by Zhao Zhen.

They brought a jug of wine and three kilograms of cooked meat.

The scene of universal celebration lasted until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

After the last carnival of the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Bianjing City finally returned to its former peace.

only.

In the Song Dynasty, after the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, things became completely lively.

The most lively place is in the military.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month.

Some fishermen from the seaside rushed thousands of miles to Bianjing City and sued the magistrate's office on the seaside for allowing the pirates to cause trouble and harm the local people.

Zhao Zhen was furious.

When he entered the capital last year, he declared in front of the people of Bianjing that he would kill anyone who offended the people of the Song Dynasty without hesitation.

Now that someone traveled thousands of miles to Bianjing City to complain, Zhao Zhen naturally couldn't tolerate it.

Ever since.

Zhao Zhen waved his hand, and all 18,000 elite Tiger Wing Army troops were dispatched out of Bianjing City. Each one of them supported a large boat and went down the river to suppress the bandits.

On the day they left Bianjing City, all the people in Bianjing City stood at the ferry and shouted loudly for victory.

Zhao Zhen fulfilled his promise to the people, and the people had nothing to do in return. They could only repay Zhao Zhen through their unparalleled enthusiasm.

As Zhao Zhen responded to the complaints from the fishermen on the seaside, complaints from various places were also conveyed to Bianjing City.

Then the soldiers and horses in Bianjing City, as well as the soldiers and horses near Bianjing City, began to mobilize frequently.

There were water bandits making trouble on the river. There were more than 80,000 tiger-winged troops and the whole army attacked.

After leaving Bianjing City, every time we passed a transfer office, more than a thousand people stayed behind.

When they reached the mouth of the sea, the soldiers of the Tiger Wing Army were completely divided.

Not waiting for the Tiger Wing Army officers and soldiers to turn around.

They have become members of the local government.

Yamen were transferred to various places, and after retaining the soldiers of the Tiger Wing Army, they were quickly divided and assigned to one Yamen after another.

They were broken into pieces and couldn't cause trouble even if they wanted to.

The Tiger Wing Army was disbanded so quietly, without causing any disturbance.

The situation of the Dragon God's two guards is almost the same.

When the imperial court dispatched troops and horses to quell the bandits in various places, it transferred 60,000 people from the Longshen Erwei and more than 30,000 people from the Tianwu and Pengri armies.

After these people left Beijing, they were quickly divided into several groups by local government offices using various excuses.

Wait until they are assigned cleanly.

The Privy Council took action and formed the Yulong Guards. At the same time, the remaining soldiers of the Dragon God Guards were added to the Tianwu and Pengri armies.

After a series of transfers.

The troops and horses stationed in Bianjing City have been completely reorganized.

After the 10,000 Yulong Guards were properly formed, Zhong Shiheng and Kou Ji sent people to retrain them.

After the drill was completed, Koji equipped them with muskets and artillery.

They took on the important task of guarding the imperial city.

They were also soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty equipped with muskets and artillery.

Since they do not need to experience war, there is no need to recruit students from the Mangshan Lecture Hall to direct them.

After the Tianwu and Pengri armies were reorganized, they moved their main camps to the east of Bianjing City and to the south of Bianjing City respectively, and stayed outside.

A series of changes also made some people aware of the court's intentions.

But there was basically no opposition in the court.

The martial artists all stay at home and act like salted fish, unable to speak out.

Kou Ji and Zhong Shiheng are in charge of the Privy Council and the Three Yamen respectively. They are participants in this reform of the military system, and it is impossible for it to happen.

They did not speak out, and others in the court did not dare to speak out either.

Only some voices of resistance from the military were heard.

But after being warned by their superiors, all of them shut up.

Those who can stay in the army are naturally retained by the imperial court.

They did not have much influence in this change. They could just help the brothers who were dismissed but did not dare to go against the imperial court.

After the troops and horses in Bianjing were reorganized, the investigation of the troops and horses in various places in the Song Dynasty was also nearing completion.

After the investigation of the military situation in various places in the Song Dynasty was completed.

A very shocking situation emerged.

Among the millions of soldiers and horses in the Song Dynasty, there were actually as many as 800,000 soldiers and horses capable of fighting.

It's just that 40% of them are in the Forbidden Army, and the other 60% are actually in the Xiang Army.

After Zhao Zhen found out about this, he was depressed and dumbfounded for several days.

When Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji were preparing to attack the soldiers and horses outside Bianjing City, the soldiers and horses outside Bianjing City also received the news, and the soldiers and horses everywhere were slightly turbulent.

Just as soldiers and horses from all over the country were preparing to resist Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji's reform move.

However, Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji did not issue orders for disarmament.

Instead, they began to confer officers to some generals and lieutenants in the army.

Among them, the four general positions designated by the imperial court as the third rank are the most eye-catching.

After a series of rewards, most of the generals and captains in the army were bribed by them.

The generals and lieutenants in the army, in cooperation with the supervisors in each army, easily calmed down the turmoil of soldiers and horses in various places.

Then there is one word.

Tune!

Various tunes!

All kinds of strange and unheard-of transfer orders appeared one after another in various armies.

Often when soldiers receive transfer orders and rush to the next place, new transfer orders will appear in their hands.

Along with the transfer orders, there are also some military orders.
