The Zide Hall seemed to be empty, and the entire palace was empty.
In fact, Guo Shao allowed some concubines and palace maids of the previous dynasty to leave the palace, not many people left, and there were still tens of thousands of people in the palace, which was a very dense place.
Guo Shao came to Zide Hall and spent dinner with Fu Ermei, and was a little distracted during this period.
In the past few years, the world was in chaos and wars continued. In fact, Guo Shao didn’t spend much time with Jinzhan.
But somehow, knowing that she is not far from me, I feel at ease.
And now, he always feels that the entire palace is short of something, and something is wrong with the left and right.
The second sister whispered: I'll go see you and come to accompany my husband tonight.
Guo Shao smiled and said: Let’s go.But you can't spoil him too much, your child should have his own life when he grows up.
The second sister's eyes turned upwards, and she didn't seem to understand what Guo Shao meant. She smiled and whispered: I'll get you pregnant with a little princess tonight. I'll be satisfied if I have a son and a daughter.
After saying that, he gave Guo Shao a teasing look.Guo Shao also laughed.
He is very satisfied with Fu Ermei. No matter in his past and present, it is probably a great blessing in life if he has a gentle white and rich beauty accompanying him.But Jinzhan's attitude towards him...it cannot be measured by conditions anyway.
...Guo Shao sat down in front of a case, took out a stack of files from his arms, and examined the upcoming military system innovation again.
This is a plan he designed with several Privy Council ministers and cabinet assistants. He will be taken to the Seminary Hall early tomorrow morning to discuss with the generals.
The most important thing after the founding of the country, so Guo Shao has been thinking about it all day long and has been thinking about it countless times.
This matter has one goal: to give titles and generous salary, and buy military power.Hope to reach an agreement with the generals.
Because the treasury does not have so much land and money, it is impossible to reward or purchase the military power of the imperial guards in one go, so the plan of Guo Shao's monarch and minister is to spread the benefits equally to the future imperial expenses.
First, all the intermediate and above military generals of the Imperial Army were awarded titles, including Gong, Hou, and Bo, and collectively known as the nobles of the Daxu Dynasty.
The nobles who founded the country and had the substantial benefits given by the state treasury.(The titles I had previously granted were just a title, and the actual benefits of salary were better than nothing.)
The six dukes with the greatest benefits are: Li Chuyun, Shi Yanchao, Yang Biao, Han Tong, Gao Huaide, and Luo Yanhuan.They are founding Duke, Zhenguo Duke, Fuguo Duke, Jingguo Duke, Fengguo Duke, and Protective Duke.
The titles of these six dukes were inherited. As long as they existed in one day, their descendants could continue to inherit the title, and the son with the greatest military merits inherited the title.
On the surface, the founding heroes share the world with the royal family.
Giving the gold medal and imperial edict to avoid death is given, except for rebellion, no matter how serious the crime is, the Duke will not die, nor will the title be cancelled. At most, it will only pass the throne to his descendants.
The salary is also very generous, and each family is roughly equivalent to the income of two taxes in one state.
The marquises who were granted the title of the founding marquis in the early days of this dynasty were collectively called the founding marquis, mainly the commander of the wing and commander of the military.Three generations of hereditary generations. If the family has made great military achievements to the country after three generations, it will be passed on for three generations.
Also has a generous salary.
The military commander Yuhou, the inner palace, the outer palace, the squad, and some commanders with military merits were awarded the title of earl and can be passed on to his son.
...But the title was not given for free, and the court will take back all military power and carry out military reform.All the military powers of these intermediate and above military generals will be taken back.
The Hall of the Forefather Office and the Guards of the Horse and Bus Office were dissolved; the Five Army Governor's Office was changed to the Dadu Prefecture, and the five armies established were dissolved, including the commanding army, the money and grain army, the armed army, and the propaganda army.
The original rural army was renamed the Wei Guojun.In the future, the Central Army will include the imperial guards and the National Guard Army, and will control most of the country's military power.
The main force of the state has completely changed from the situation controlled by the Privy Council and the two major departments to the decentralization of power of the four yamen: the Privy Council, the Ministry of War, the Dadu Prefecture, and the Military Arts Supervision.
The Privy Council holds the power to mobilize troops, the Ministry of War is in charge of military pay, money and food, the Dadu Prefecture is in charge of military power, and the military weapon is in charge of the storage and control of armor, weapons, firearms, and war horses.
...In this way, when there is no war, the largest unit of the army is actually the command of 500 people. The commander of the army cannot mobilize the army, distributes military pay and supplies, and cannot master weapons.
Military generals at the military level no longer have real power and are led by the Military Office, which mainly consists of civil servants from each yamen.
The establishment at the level of the wing no longer exists.
When a war broke out, the power of the chief general was also restrained and supervised by multiple yamen, and a former military palace would be temporarily formed to establish a military power system.
The system of command soldiers and officials will become the most important place for the army of this dynasty.
In the next step, the court will also carry out similar changes to the border army. In addition to the decision-making power of the chief general, four departments directly under the court replaced the chief general's military power.
...Guo Shao had tested the attitudes of the generals in the early stage and seemed to have no dissatisfaction.
Because in addition to military power, under the new military system, the benefits they received were far greater than before; the previous military generals only had a small salary, or were waiting for the emperor to reward, with few actual benefits and no long-term commitment.
In addition to gaining actual benefits and status, the role of military power can rebel!If he doesn't want benefits, but asks the emperor for military power, what do he want to do?
Once this military system is implemented, it will inevitably lead to a situation where the soldiers do not know the generals and the generals do not know the soldiers, which will lead to a decline in the combat effectiveness of the army. However, because of the subdividing of military power, it involves a wide range of involvement in mobilizing the army to fight, and it is almost impossible to suddenly raise an army and rebel, which ensures that the imperial power is not subject to the backlash of internal force and increases security.
All ministers believed that after Youyun’s key territory was recovered, the war across the country might not be big.The pros and cons cannot be taken into account. Under the general trend at this time, it is more appropriate to adopt a strategy of stabilizing the regime.
And there are two reasons why Guo Shao made up his mind: First, after years of war, the current generals and soldiers of the imperial guards can gain the trust of the soldiers even if they temporarily let a general lead their troops, because both the emperor and the general are very famous among the martial arts.
At least among this group of people, the changes in the military system will not have much impact on combat power.
Second, the organizational form and tactics of firearms will gradually change as they emerge.
...Guo Shao spent the night with great worries.
Early the next morning, the West Hall Council Hall, according to the customs over the past few years, more than 20 most powerful civil and military ministers of the court came to gather together to talk about their recent general rules and leave after nothing happened.
After simple etiquette, the ministers skillfully found the chair they were used to sitting.
At this time, Wei Renpu walked out and he brought a sword!It was very strange that the emperor had a sword in front of him, but he was just a civil servant. No one said anything, just looking at what Wei Renpu was going to do.
Wei Renpu waved his sword in front of everyone.
At this time, Shi Yanchao couldn't help it: What are you gesturing?Don’t look at where you are, your mind is broken?
Ouch!Wei Renpu suddenly pretended to hold his fingers and frowned. The sword was unsheathed and he accidentally cut himself!
After saying that, his eyes swept across the faces of Li Chuyun and others, and Li Chuyun didn't say a word.
Shi Yanchao said: You can’t put it all with the pair of sheaths?
Wei Renpu glanced at Shi Yanchao: General Shi is right.Let's not use this sword for the time being. If it is just so open, it is easy to cut oneself. You may also encounter something that will make the sword edge rust, curl, or even break. This is not a good way.At this time, it is not about throwing away the sword. Maybe when to use it. The best way is to put it on a pair of exquisite and precious scabbards and wipe the oil.What do you think?
Most of the civil officials knew what Wei Renpu meant, while the military generals nodded thoughtfully to agree.
Then Wei Renpu put the sword into the scabbard, put it back on a table, clasped his fists and saluted Guo Shao first, and then made suggestions, saying his and Wang Pu’s claims in public.
After Guo Shao and the generals listened silently, Guo Shao turned to look to the right. You are all brothers who fight side by side with me. What do you think of Deputy Envoy Wei’s proposal?
Li Chuyun said: I have a comment that the Deputy Envoy Wei’s saying “The treasure scavenger is a sharp sword” is very reasonable…
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Yanchao said excitedly: Do you still need to ask the official?Now, the Guo family has been emperors for generations, and we have been dukes for generations!Where to find such a good thing?It is worthwhile for the brothers to give their lives to the officials. The officials are kind to you, and the last one will be grateful!
Suddenly the generals agreed and were all very happy.
The smoothness of the scene was a bit beyond Guo Shao's expectations, especially the six dukes, whose faces were red with excitement, and they didn't seem to be pretending at all... At this time, Guo Shao came to his senses. His reward was indeed very generous. He wanted to be famous, to be a noble and marquis, to be profitable, and to be beneficial. There was no reason why the generals were unwilling to do so; Guo Shao's previous concerns were really redundant.
The generals present probably didn't have much idea of becoming emperor under the general trend at this time.Some things can’t be seen even when you jump, and you won’t think about them.
With such thoughts, being a hereditary nobleman is more stable than holding military power in his hands!Because there is military power in your hands and there is still danger, what's wrong with enjoying everything safely now?
This was a happy spoiled party.The generals' faces were all laughing. Guo Shao carefully observed and found that Li Chuyun seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, looking very comfortable.
Shi Yanchao looked at Wang Pu and said: I didn’t expect you would talk to us martial artists.
It was obviously Wei Renpu's suggestion, but he said this to Wang Pu, probably because Wei Renpu proposed that it was the reason why the two of them claimed it.
Wang Pu smiled and said: You are also great heroes. You are officials in the same dynasty. I have no grudges with you, so how could I be unfair? I am also a little annoyed. If I had known this, if I had been with the army, wouldn’t I have become rich for the next generation?
Everyone burst into laughter... But the civil servants still have power now, so naturally they don't need to redeem them.
Yang Biao said: The government has not agreed yet, are you all too happy?
However, everyone could almost guess that such a major event must have been planned by Guo Shao himself, and they all looked at each other.
Guo Shao said: Deputy Envoy Wei's "Treasure Scabbage" will become a legend for the ages.
After hearing this, the generals stood up and bowed and thanked each other, shouting long live.Shi Yanchao said: Officials are very kind to ministers, not like the Emperor Gaozu of Han in the play. If he wins the world, he will kill his brothers one by one!
The hall suddenly became cold and everyone looked at each other.
In fact, Guo Shao allowed some concubines and palace maids of the previous dynasty to leave the palace, not many people left, and there were still tens of thousands of people in the palace, which was a very dense place.
Guo Shao came to Zide Hall and spent dinner with Fu Ermei, and was a little distracted during this period.
