Chapter 184: The Storm Rises (8) "Your Highness, what the hell is going on?
With so many troops mobilized, do we have to inform the imperial court?
Fang Yiai felt that he had to ask clearly, you must know that this is the transfer of hundreds of thousands of troops, although Li Zhen has the right to control the Nanyang soldiers and horses, but such a large-scale marriage transfer, even Li Zhen and my prince must inform the court, otherwise maybe there will be ill-intentioned people who spread rumors that Li Zhen is going to rebel - then Li Zhen will let the yellow mud fall into the crotch of his pants, it is not but, and even Li Shimin may have to be suspicious of Li Zhen.
Li Zhen, as the crown prince, of course also understood the rules, but said: "Of course you have to notify, but you only need to notify the navy, forget the words of the young army, the palace mobilizes the young army, and it is not their turn to greet them." ” "The Young Army is His Highness's private army, His Highness can use it however he wants, no one else has anything to say, it's just a matter of the navy, and those people in the court may not agree."
For the Young Army, Fang Yiai didn't say anything, anyway, the Young Army is Li Zhen's private army, although many people who hate it have written to the court more than once, requesting that the Young Army be assigned to the imperial court combat sequence, but they have been fooled by Li Zhen through various methods.
And one of the most effective ways is to ask the court for money - you want to turn my army into the Tang Dynasty, I didn't have any opinions, but since I started training the young army, I haven't asked the court for a penny, all the expenses are paid by myself, and now you want to go to the young army, so please give me the money I paid first, right?
Otherwise, wouldn't you be able to do it in vain?
And as soon as the officials who often understand Li Zhen hear this, they will immediately look at him left and right - what are you kidding?
Hundreds of thousands of young soldiers, just looking at their combat effectiveness, you can know how strict their training is in peacetime, and the cost is definitely an astronomical amount, although the imperial court now has money, but there are more places to use the money, and it is absolutely impossible to buy a young army.
Besides, the training of the Boys' Army is closed, and I don't know how much it costs to be a Boys' Army, so what if you treat us as the wronged boss?
Just went back and forth a few times, and this matter was not over, and no one ever mentioned this matter again, of course, it was not that they just exposed this matter, they were just waiting for an opportunity, waiting for the opportunity after Li Zhen ascended the throne - after Li Zhen ascended the throne, most of the property will be confiscated, and when the time comes, they will bring up this matter again, see how you refuse?
Therefore, although this young army is famous all over the world, it is still Li Zhen's private army in terms of ownership, and it has not asked for a penny from the imperial court from beginning to end, but the number is a little more, far exceeding the number of the prince's private army.
At this point, Li Zhen can be regarded as overstepping the system, just with his merits, he has exceeded the system so much, plus Li Shimin did not pursue it, naturally there will be no problem - and since it is a private army, the order to transfer is naturally in the hands of Li Zhen, even if Li Zhen lets the young army go to the street collectively to dance the * clothes dance, others are not qualified to point out half a point.
The problem is the navy, there are almost half of the fleets of the Tang Dynasty distributed throughout the South Seas, and the number of navies alone is hundreds of thousands, if you add the marines, then this number will exceed one million - such a large-scale military transfer, it is almost impossible for the imperial court to agree, not to mention that this fleet still has to go north to Chang'an, if any careerist uses the navy to rebel, the consequences will be too serious.
What's more, the navy of the South Seas was transferred, so what should the South Seas do?
You must know that the number of 9 navies in Nanyang is seriously insufficient, and they are invincible in peacetime, if all the navies are transferred now, I am afraid that the next day Nanyang will be full of smoke - those lawless pirates and black-hearted businessmen who are merchants on the surface but secretly fighting piracy will never let go of this good opportunity.
In case the navy just left on the front foot and the nest on the back foot was brought to the ground, then not only would the navy lose face greatly, but the court would suffer heavy losses, and even Li Zhen, who led all this, would be implicated, and maybe the throne in his hands would fly.
Therefore, for Li Zhen's order, Fang Yiai is opposed.
"I didn't say I was going to let you all go back."
Li Zhen said helplessly: "Fang Yi has been with me for twenty years, and you should know me very well, why are you so confused now?"
Do you think I can't think of what you want to say?
How could I possibly make such a low-level mistake?
- I never said that Sinopharm would mobilize all the navy back......
What I mean is that all the major naval fleets in the South Seas must send a detachment to follow my father back, and I have to do enough superficial work along the way......
This time, we're going back with a lot of fanfare. ” "So that's the case, it's a subordinate who thinks about it."
Fang Yiai smiled ashamedly, in vain he had followed the prince for so many years, and he would still make such a low-level mistake.
But then he frowned again: "But even so, the imperial court may not approve it, right?"
” Even if each fleet only sent a detachment back, it would be nearly 100,000 people, how could the imperial court agree so easily?
"Under normal circumstances, the imperial court will naturally not agree, but is it a normal situation now?"
Li Zhen pointed to her nose: "This palace was assassinated just now, eh?"
With the near-death still alive, what's wrong with adding a little more escort fleet?
Could it be that the life of this palace can't even compare to the fleet?
” "No, no, no, of course not, His Highness's life is more expensive than ten thousand gold, how can it be compared to a few warships?"
Fang Yiai also smiled: "We don't need to apply directly, let's just send the news of your assassination back to the imperial court, it is estimated that we don't need to take the initiative to apply, the imperial court will order the fleet of Nanyang to escort your Royal Highness back to Beijing." ” "Of course, this is the best, but with villains, I'm afraid it will be difficult to meet our expectations......"
Li Zhen pondered for a moment, raised his head and said: "In this way, you will spread the news of the attack on the main palace, especially the major naval fleets, and ask them to jointly write a letter requesting that a fleet be sent to escort the main palace back to Beijing." ” "This method is good, and those who want to come to the imperial court don't dare to ignore the opinions of so many naval governors."
Fang Yiai's smile became even brighter: "And through this matter, those people in the court will not dare to underestimate Your Highness, and they will definitely welcome you back with the most respectful ceremony." ” "Hehe, that's what I meant."
Li Zhen chuckled, in addition to guarding against the Heavenly King, shining muscles was also his plan.
