Chapter 1298: Handing over the military power


Now that hundreds of thousands of troops have gathered in Gyeonggi, not only Fang Xuanling hopes to arrange these army officers and soldiers as soon as possible.

Cheng Qian also means this, too many soldiers get together, which always makes people not feel at ease.

Zhang Chao himself also wanted to arrange these soldiers as soon as possible.

The military reform bill unanimously approved by the cabinet was submitted to the Imperial Court, and Cheng Qian, Ma Zhou, and other Hanlin scholars studied it carefully for a day and felt that this plan was very good, and there were no problems.

What particularly satisfied Cheng Qian was the establishment of the emperor's guards, with 80,000 people in the four armies, under the Beiya, but directly under the control of the emperor himself, which was the most unexpected and happiest for him.

Zhang Chao is worthy of being his father-in-law, and he can guess his mind the most.

After seeing the three bloody coups in the Tang Dynasty, Cheng Qian was indeed very eager to personally control a pro-army.

In this way, the heart will be secured, and the sleep will be stable.

Now, Zhang Chao has given him 80,000 pro-troops, which are directly under his control, which is very good.

This proves that Zhang Chao is still loyal.

Judging from Zhang Chao's insistence on the separation system of generals from the Sanya army, Zhang Chao did not intend to control the army.

If Zhang Chao wants to control the army, he should not engage in the separation of soldiers and generals, because in this way, the largest unit of each military guard is the battalion in peacetime, and it is difficult to control it.

Zhang Chao is not directly in charge of the troops, and Cheng Qian is still very pleased.

Anyway, as a teacher, the pressure on him is still very huge.

"The ministers thought that this reform plan was very good, much better than the military system in the past."

Ma Zhou said to Cheng Gan, in fact, he wanted to say that there was no need to get a Son of Heaven to guard the army, but Cheng Qian definitely didn't want to hear this kind of thing.

"Very good, then please ask Dean Ma to approve the red permission on my behalf."

In order to ensure that this military reform bill, which satisfies him, was smoothly passed in the Academy of Sciences, the upper house of the Parliament, Cheng Qian also specially sent Ma Zhou to personally go to the Sixth Section to keep an eye on it.

This reform bill concerns the military and is therefore considered by the Military Section of the six Sections.

There are nine members of the Military Division.

During the deliberations, nine members of the military department sat on the stage, and a large group of members of the parliament in Beijing sat below them to attend the hearing.

Other MPs can ask questions, but it is the nine members of the Section who make the decision.

Member of Section is the equivalent of a committee of Parliament.

The eldest grandson of the cabinet, Wuji, also came, and he came with a task, and the task was to make the bill pass smoothly.

Among the nine members of the Military Division, one is the leader, also known as the Senator of the Military Division.

The senator of the military department is an old acquaintance, Li Daozong, the prince of Jiangxia County, this famous king of the royal family is now only a county duke, and he has no real position in the imperial court.

Before the deliberations, Li Daozong, Ma Zhou, and the eldest grandson Wuji had a meeting in the tea room.

Ma Zhou indicated that he had come at the behest of the emperor.

"Your Majesty very much wants this case to pass."

The eldest grandson Wuji also bluntly said, "This reform bill was proposed by King Zhao himself, discussed by the Privy Council, the Ministry of War, the Governor's Office of the Three Governments and the Five Armies, and the senior generals of the Guards, and finally passed unanimously in the cabinet." ” Li Daozong said there was a lot of pressure.

Since both the cabinet and the emperor want to pass this case, and even the bigwigs of the military are also participants in the case, what reason does he have to refuse?

"Please rest assured, so-and-so will definitely consider it carefully."

End of conversation.

The deliberations began later, and the clerks began to read the bill, and then entered the inquiry session to be questioned by the councillors.

For this reason, the Cabinet, the Privy Council, and the Ministry of War all sent people to take inquiries and answer them.

What Li Daozong was worried about did not happen, and everyone knew early on that this case was not simple.

And after listening carefully, it didn't happen that this case was too much, and it was even really good.

As a result, the inquiry hearing has actually become a formality.

Finally, the discussion was held behind closed doors by the nine councillors, half an hour later.

Li Daozong and other members of the military department came out.

"Ladies and gentlemen, after listening to the inquiries of the members of the Diet and the serious answers given by the representatives of the Cabinet, the Privy Council, and the Ministry of War, our Military Section carefully discussed, studied, and deliberated on this military reform bill, and finally made a result of the deliberation and approved it."

The eldest grandson Wuji breathed a sigh of relief, and the first task was successfully completed.

Ma Zhou also got up with a smile.

In the corner of the side, in an inconspicuous position, Wei Zheng, the dean of the upper house, was sitting there, and he came over halfway.

At this time, after hearing the results, I got up and walked outside. didn't come up to greet everyone, he, the dean of the upper house, was supported by Zhang Chao, but it didn't mean that he would completely stand on Zhang Chao's side.

He has always been only about things and not about people.

However, this case, after he learned more about it, he found that it was indeed quite good.

The point he favors the most is that Zhang Chao insisted on the separation of soldiers and generals.

When the new military system is implemented and the transfer of troops and horses is completed, the army will no longer be as it is now, and hundreds of thousands of troops will be in the hands of Zhang Chao alone.

This is the luck of the country and the luck of Datang, Zhang Chao did the right thing this time.

Eldest Sun Wuji smiled and nodded to Li Daozong, "Thank you." ” Li Daozong smiled, "I'm just handling it impartially." ” Ma Zhou said, "I will truthfully explain today's matter to Your Majesty." ” "Thank you."

Li Daozong said to Ma Zhou.

Ma Zhouke is also the emperor's teacher, and now this is the dean of Hanlin who holds the power to criticize red, and that power is hot.

Ma Zhou is a person who does what he says, and after he went back, he told Li Chengqian about the situation.

"Uncle Huang also has merit to the Tang Dynasty."

Cheng Qian sighed and said, Li Daozong is his cousin in the imperial family, and in the founding of the Tang Dynasty, he also followed his father and made a lot of contributions.

"Crowning Jiang Xia Gong Li Daozong as Xia Guogong" Undertaking the main road.

"The minister immediately drafted the edict and sent it to the cabinet."

The emperor's decree still needs to be approved and sealed by the cabinet and approved by the parliament before it can be regarded as a formal edict, otherwise it is only a central decree.

The will was drafted and sent to the Cabinet.

In the cabinet, Zhang Chaozheng was happy that the military system case was passed so smoothly, and when he saw the emperor's edict, he smiled, and said hello to Fang Xuanling and others, and everyone agreed to pass it in a few words.

This can be regarded as a return for the peach.

The edict was transferred to the Upper House Officials Division, and the edicts and decrees on personnel and rewards were to be deliberated here.

"Ah, Li Daozong, the Duke of Jiangxia, has been crowned the Duke of Xia."

"What's so strange, Li Daozong was originally the king of Jiangxia."

However, when Zhenguan, it was later changed to an unspoken rule that the son of a non-emperor and the emperor's brother could not be crowned king, and a non-emperor's son-in-law was not crowned a prince.

Li Daozong was originally a confidant of the Emperor Taishang, but unfortunately he was coerced in the Restoration Rebellion.

As soon as Li Daozong passed the military reform bill here, the emperor over there was crowned as the prince of the country.

"I didn't expect him to pick up a big bargain."

"Not really."

In the House of Nobles, they are all nobles.

And those who can serve as members of the six sections are basically those top nobles with great fame and high qualifications, and it is basically impossible for them to serve as section councilors below the county level.

Watching Li Daozong's bad luck run out all of a sudden, and in a blink of an eye, he was promoted from the county prince to the national prince, which is really shocking.

"This territory is also good, you see what a fief it is."

"Prepare, let's consider this case together at the afternoon hearing."

"It's going to pass."

The deliberations of the six sections are generally concentrated on the consideration of multiple cases, and some important cases will also hold hearings and consultations.

However, Li Daozong's this, there is no need for any consultation and hearing, it is definitely done.

They now have a bigger case in their hands, involving the sealing of thousands of nobles, and that is the big proposal.

"I don't quite understand a lot of what the teacher is doing now" Zhang Chao's mansion, Su Dingfang and other protégés came to the mansion for dinner today.

Su Dingfang is now the marshal of the Northern Ya, and after the reform of the new military system, Zhang Chao still intends to let him continue to serve as the marshal of the Northern Ya.

As a big disciple of Zhang Chao's disciple who learned the art of war, Su Dingwen is really a little confused now.

He didn't understand what the teacher was trying to do "How can I have the right to self-dismiss the army, according to this military reform case, then our southern army will all be handed over, even if I am still the marshal of the Northern Ya, but I don't have a single soldier in my hand, I sit in the North Yashuai and drink tea all day long, what is the difference between this and an idler?"

Su Dingfang's loyalty to Zhang Chao was unquestionable, and when Zhang Chao raised his troops, he immediately followed and raised the flag.

Even in order to avenge his junior brother, he personally killed the three brothers Li Tai, Li Ke and Li You.

That's the brother of the new emperor, and even a brother-in-law.

"Dingfang, then what do you say I should do, do you continue to hold these soldiers and horses, you know that these soldiers and horses are a volcano, and we stand on it, and we may be turned to ashes by the erupting volcano at any time."

Everyone has desires, but Zhang Chao is more idealistic, and he can also control his desires and adhere to his ideals.

The hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Southern Army are good, and now it is not wrong to hold them in the hands of relatives and friends of Zhang Chao's subordinates, but he is still a Tang courtier, and if this does not change, he can't always hold these soldiers and horses.

No one will be able to tolerate it either.

And Zhang Chao can't be a Tang courtier When he raised the banner at the beginning, he was able to get so many responses, but it was not all his personal prestige, that is, he held the banner of the prince and the banner of protecting the law.

If he, Zhang Chao, now raises the flag to rebel, it will be completely different.

Many people are often blinded by the desire for power and can't see the facts clearly, but Zhang Chao can't.

He saw things through.

"Teacher, what if the emperor wants to cross the river and tear down the bridge, what if the eldest grandson Wuji wants to murder the teacher?"

Zhang Chao smiled, "Cheng Qian definitely won't now, maybe in the future, but the situation will definitely be different at that time."

As for the eldest grandson Wuji, I handed over the military power, does his eldest grandson Wuji still want to hold the soldiers of the Beiya anymore, he doesn't have much control over the soldiers of the Beiya" "Dingfang, military reform, in fact, protects all of us."

Zhang Chao said earnestly, "Besides, if we hand over the soldiers and horses in our hands, it doesn't mean that we will be slaughtered, we still have territorial private soldiers." ” t1706231537:
