Chapter 152 - Military States

The morning of the second day, Zhao Chen, Yue Fei, Kang An, Wang Shu and the rest of them headed towards Southern Zheng!

Lin Bao was still in the palace. Lin Bao was now the steward of the palace! It was just that he was the only eunuch in the palace, and the soldiers of the Managed may not listen to his orders, and as for Li Gang in the imperial court, he would naturally not listen to his orders! As the Minister of Imperial Household, his authority was much lower than Liang Shicheng, Yang Jian, and the others!

However, to the current Lin Bao, being able to keep his life after Zhe Keqiu's chaos was already an exceptionally fortunate thing! In this short period of time, he didn't dare to have any other extravagant hopes!

Ten thousand Royal soldiers s also came to Southern Zheng with Zhao Chen!

That day, the Royal soldiers was also immersed in intense training!

Originally, the Managed was the strongest army in the entire Home Breaker! They had thought that they were the most elite soldiers, far surpassing the current army! However, once they arrived at Southern Zheng, they discovered to their shock that the Imperial Guards were no longer the Home Breaker, but rather, the Imperial Guards were actually much stronger than them!

This discovery made Royal soldiers depressed but at the same time, he secretly swore to himself that he would work hard to surpass the Imperial Guards! After all, as Royal soldiers s, they had their own pride!

For the entire day, the soldiers trained relentlessly!

At night, Zhao Chen and Kang An would be together. Zhao Chen said: "Your Royal soldiers should be able to endure today's training, right?"

Kang An laughed and said: "If even your majesty can endure it, why can't they? This kind of training would be the best. In the past, when I stayed in the palace every day, I was too lazy to continue training! "

Zhao Chen said: "From today onwards, this kind of training will be carried out everyday! The Managed exists to protect us! From now on, we are also going to walk on the battlefield, and these soldiers of Managed are also going to follow us onto the battlefield to kill our enemies! At that time, don't let me down! "

Kang An said: "Your majesty, don't worry, I will definitely not disappoint you!"

The intense training continued day after day!

It was already autumn, but the sun in autumn was also very strong! The Imperial Guard and the Managed's soldiers were all sweating, all of them training nonstop!

On August 10th, it rained heavily. Under such weather, the Imperial Guards and the Royal soldiers were still training!

And that afternoon, the military intelligence department's yamen preparation was officially completed!

At this moment, Zhao Chen was at the military s yamen, he was accompanying Zhao Chen at his side!

"Your Majesty, there are a total of more than twenty people at the military headquarters' yamen. The main purpose is to record things, accept engagements, and issue orders!" As they were dealing with urgent military matters and top secret matters, everything was handled by His Majesty and several military officials. They were mainly here to help, so they didn't need that many people! In the past, whether it was the army or the Privy Council, there were at least a few hundred officials, which greatly affected the speed of affairs. " Wang Shu said.

"Very good! This was what the Military Administration should do! Send out the first decree of the military command. Tell all important generals at the border to inform the military command as soon as there is any important military information or secrets! As for the ordinary matters of the army, the sending of rations, the distribution of weapons, and so on, they will still be handled by the military and the Privy Council! " Zhao Chen said.

"Yes, this humble subject understands!" Wang Shu said.

The reason why Zhao Chen joined the Military Intelligence department was to handle the urgent military affairs, it was to bypass the various complex organizations such as the army, Privy Council, and so on.

"Also, tell the various prefectures to deliver this information to the Military Administration immediately if they encounter any confidential matters! For example, matters related to rebellion, the malfeasance of important officials, and other matters related to the safety of Song Dynasty could all be sent to the Military Intelligence Department! There are also some important matters that the various prefectures must deliver to the Military Administration! " Zhao Chen said.

"This... Your Majesty, these should be sent to the six divisions and the Chinese Book Province s! " Wang Shu was startled, and said.

"In this chaotic world, many things have to do with military affairs and the safety of the country! There were some secret matters that could not be revealed to ordinary officials. This was true as well! You can pass on the orders! "" No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! Zhao Chen said.

"Yes, this humble subject will do it right away!" Wang Shu thought about it and said.

Zhao Chen had already left, but Wang Shu was still standing there. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss!

He had originally thought that the yamen was only used to handle the military affairs of the border. However, he did not expect Zhao Chen to include the "confidential matters" of the place in the responsibility of the military security! This way, the important generals of the borders, the important officials of the localities, and even Zhao Chen himself, without going through the Privy Council s, Chinese Book Province s, and the six Tribes immediately had a relationship with him. Zhao Chen could directly give orders to these generals and officials, and also "handle military matters" in name! In this way, wouldn't Zhao Chen be able to control the big and small officials of the entire country through the Military Intelligence Department, and control the important matters of the entire country's military and political affairs?

The weather outside was already cold, but Wang Shu felt his entire body sweating!

"Although His Majesty appears to be taking care of military matters on the surface, and even though he looks like he is trying to overtake the Curved End, in reality, he is trying to overtake the entire imperial government and use the military command to replace the entire imperial government! From now on, the authority of the Military Administration was paramount! If the so-called Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister did not enter the military, then they were not even worth mentioning! As for the minister of war, His Majesty has appointed three of them, but His Majesty can also use the reason that we are busy with other matters to get us to leave the military headquarters and return to the main yamen! Such a method was truly unprecedented! It looks like I have to stay here forever! As long as I stay here, even though I am only the Vice Minister, my authority will not be lower than Li Gang's! " Wang Shu was first shocked, but then a trace of ambition appeared in his eyes!

It was just that he understood that this Grand Marshal was completely different from the Prime Minister and the Deputy Minister. The authority of the Grand Marshal all came from Zhao Chen, and Zhao Chen had decided to appoint the Grand Marshal! If one wanted to be a good leader, not only did he have to show off his talent, he also had to be loyal to Zhao Chen, and nothing could go against his will!

"There has never been a 'Military Intelligence' agency in China since ancient times! In the past, there were powerful officials who bullied the emperor. If they could make an appearance in the military, his majesty would have supreme authority. Who could bully the emperor? No matter what His Majesty says, who dares to resist? If His Majesty was a foggy ruler, this Song Dynasty would be considered finished. Fortunately, His Majesty is not a foggy ruler! " Wang Shu stood there for a long time, and only until his clothes were completely drenched in sweat did he regain his senses!

Immediately, he passed down Zhao Chen's orders down to him, not to mention anything else.

August 15th, the Mid-Autumn Festival had arrived!

This day, Zhao Chen did not return to the palace. He spent fifteen years with the soldiers in the army.

The emperor and ordinary soldiers had a holiday together, something that had never happened before in China! The soldiers' hearts were filled with gratitude, there was no need to say anything more!

After the soldiers had left, Zhao Chen, Yue Fei and Wang Shu were together!

Zhao Chen said: "You all have seen it too, our army has undergone a huge change! On one hand, it's because I'm training here with them, and on the other hand, it's because of publicity and education! Wang Shu, the Elementary Scholars you planted in the army have also played a big role! "

Wang Shu nodded, and said: "This is all your Majesty's idea, this humble subject is only executing it! Previously, the soldiers were all very lazy. They only served as soldiers for the sake of food and pay, but now they understand that it was for the sake of the Emperor, for the sake of the Song Dynasty, for the sake of the people of the world. This way, the soldiers would have to train harder! Now that they are on the battlefield, they will definitely throw caution to the wind and become stronger than before! "

Zhao Chen said: "That's true! "However, in addition to promoting this thought to the soldiers, I must also promote this thought to the common people!"

Wang Shu was startled, then said: "Propaganda similar thoughts to the common people?"

Zhao Chen said: "That's right! The commoners didn't like being a soldier. There was a saying that a good man was not a soldier. If it wasn't because he couldn't live on, no one would be willing to be a soldier! We Chinese do not want to be soldiers, do not want to fight, and do not want to resist. When the Nvzhen comes, there are countless Chinese people who could only allow the true female to be slaughtered.

Wang Shu nodded, and said: "That's right!"

Yue Fei at the side also agreed, and said: "Your Majesty, there are a lot of Chinese people here, but when I was in the east of the river, only a small portion of the citizens dared to stand out against the Nvzhen, and the majority of us allowed the Nvzhen to bully us! "The people's thoughts are unchanging, and it will be hard for them to destroy the female body as well!" "… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …

Zhao Chen said: "That's why I said I need to advertise! Wang Shu, I will leave this matter to you! "

There was no difference between the significance of promotions and that of the ancient and modern ages! It was all about explaining, educating, spreading, and propagating! Tang Dynasty did not have the words "40 years ago when the Holy Grimoire was flipped, the three dynasties have come, praise for meritorious deeds, and a desire to promote" in the . In the Jin Dynasty, Ge Hong also once had the theory of promotional promotions!

However, the promotions from ancient times were usually directed to those with higher social status and culture. There were very few ways of promoting it to the common people!

was startled, and said: "Your majesty, what is the main thing to promote?"

Zhao Chen said: "I have been thinking about this these few days, listen up, the main points are the importance of the army, tell the people, the soldiers have made huge contributions to the Song Dynasty, the people must support the soldiers, treat the soldiers well, and let the people understand the honor of being a soldier! Secondly, we have to tell the people, we Chinese are the world's most outstanding people, we have created a glorious civilization, the Nvzhen is just a barbarian race and isn't even worthy of carrying our shoes, but the Nvzhen is fierce and brutal, occupying countless of our territory! We have to proclaim our greatness, the tyranny of the Nvzhen! Thirdly, we must tell the people that we Chinese have the spirit of sacrifice since ancient times. We must dare to sacrifice, to sacrifice! In short, as long as it's beneficial to the resistance, they had to advertise it! "

Wang Shu nodded, and said: "This humble subject has remembered everything! Tomorrow, I will begin to formulate a strategy, and it would be best if I could write a book! "

Zhao Chen laughed: "That's for the best! From today onwards, you are the minister of the Advocacy Division under the Military Intelligence department! There is also an important relationship between propaganda and military affairs. If manpower and financial resources are needed, it is possible to request for military affairs from the other yamen of the imperial government in the name of military affairs. No one is allowed to obstruct it! "

Wang Shu replied: "This humble subject understands!"

Tonight, the moon was bright, and the soldiers were already sleeping. Zhao Chen was bringing Yue Fei, Kang An and the others to inspect the army camp!

The reason why he wanted to make Wang Shu "publicize" the war, was mainly to create a situation of support for the war throughout the whole of Middle Han Area, Chuan Shu, and many other places in the Guan Shan!

Only with such a situation would it be possible for him to implement an obligatory military strategy and even have other policies conducive to a war of resistance!

It was not because he did not want to recruit soldiers, but because the ordinary citizens of Great Song Dynasty were not willing to join the army! Furthermore, after experiencing Zhe Keqiu's chaos, when Zhe Keqiu forcefully pulled the strong to join the army, the citizens were even more afraid of becoming soldiers! In this case, the only way to increase the number of troops was to conduct an education campaign! Only after that would it be possible to introduce a compulsory army system, allowing a large number of soldiers to enter the army!

"During the Warring States Era, the Qin Nation was located in the northwest, and might not be as powerful as the Jin Nation or Chu Nation, but the Qin Nation reigned supreme! Because at that time, the Qin Nation had an obligatory military system. All men over the age of fifteen were required to enlist into the army! At that time, all the political, economic, cultural, educational and other aspects of the Qin Nation served to expand the war and expand the outside world! Right now, I am in Middle Han Area, Chuan Shu, and the topography is somewhat similar to the Qin Nation back then. I also want to make the entire nation serve the war! It was a situation where everyone was fighting! In the end, it was still a military kingdom! That's right, it was the army! Historically speaking, any country that had a militaristic system would be able to wield tremendous military power for a short period of time! The Qin Nation was like this, so was the later generations of Europe's Germany! Germany had just experienced the failure of the First World War, but in just a few years, Germany had regained the military strength to challenge all of Europe! The Great Song Dynasty became lifeless under the policies of the previous generations of emperors. Today, I will use the military state system to rejuvenate the martial prowess of this country, this nation, and this entire nation! " Zhao Chen thought.

The world was in chaos. If one wanted to have extraordinary military strength in a short period of time, the military system was the fastest way!

However, even if he wanted to push all of this forward, he had to do it step by step. A traditional scholar like Li Gang would definitely not be able to accept such a system! Zhao Chen wanted to unknowingly push this system forward! Right now, letting Wang Shu carry out a "propaganda" was one of the measures he had taken!

"Curved End? Still not coming? I have already stopped distributing their military rations! " When he looked towards the northwest direction, Zhao Chen was secretly worried!
