Chapter 1298 surrender military power

Now that hundreds of thousands of troops are gathered in the capital, Fang Xuanling hopes to arrange these soldiers as soon as possible. Chengqian also means this. Too many soldiers gather together, it is always uneasy.

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

The military system reform case that the cabinet unanimously approved was presented to the imperial court. Chengqian and Ma Zhou and other Hanlin bachelors studied it carefully for a day and thought that this plan was very good and there was nothing wrong with it.

What made Chengqian particularly satisfied was the establishment of the emperor's personal guards. The fourth army had 80,000 people, and was placed under the Northern Yamen, but it was directly under the emperor's personal control, which made him most surprising and happiest.

Zhang Chao is worthy of being his father-in-law and can best guess what he thinks. After seeing three bloody coups in the Tang Dynasty, Cheng Qian was really eager to control a personal army in his heart.

Only in this way can you have a safe heart and sleep peacefully.

Now, Zhang Chao has given him 80,000 personal troops 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 the three yamen army, Zhang Chao had no intention of controlling the army. If Zhang Chao wanted to control the army, he should not separate the soldiers and generals, because in this way, the largest unit of each military and guard is usually the battalion, which is difficult to control.

Cheng Qian was still very pleased that Zhang Chao did not directly command the troops.

No matter what, the pressure from my teacher and father-in-law is still very huge.

"I think this reform plan is very good, much better than the military system in the past." Ma Zhou said to Cheng Qian. In fact, he wanted to say that there was no need to get a personal guard of the emperor, but Cheng Qian definitely didn't want to hear this.

"Very good, then please Dean Ma approve the red license on my behalf."

In order to ensure that the military system reform case that satisfies him was successfully passed in the Academy of Sciences of the upper house of parliament, Cheng Qian also specially sent Ma Zhou to the Sixth Department to watch.

This reform case involves the army, so the military department of the six disciplines is responsible for deliberation.

There are nine MPs in the Military Department.

During the deliberation, nine MPs of the Military Affairs Department sat on the stage, and a large group of MPs in Beijing were sitting below to attend the hearing. Other MPs could ask questions, but the nine MPs of the Military Affairs Department were still the ones who made the decision.

A member of the CPC is equivalent to a committee of the parliament.

Changsun Wuji of the cabinet also came. He came with a task, which was to make the proposal pass smoothly.

Among the nine members of the Military Science Department, one of them is the leader, and is also called the Military Science Department Senator.

The Senator of the Military Department is an old acquaintance. Li Daozong, the Duke of Jiangxia County, is now just a county duke and has no actual position in the court. This time he was elected as a Senator of the Military Department, which is actually Zhang Chao's intention.

Before the deliberation, Li Daozong, Ma Zhou and Changsun Wuji had a talk in the tea room first.

Ma Zhou showed that he came here at the will of the emperor.

"Your Majesty hopes this case will be passed."

Changsun Wuji also bluntly stated, "This reform case was proposed by King Zhao himself, and was discussed by the Privy Council, the Ministry of War, the Third Yamen, the Governor's Office of the Five Army, and the senior generals of the guards, and finally passed unanimously in the cabinet."

Li Daozong said that he was under great pressure.

Since both the cabinet and the emperor wanted to pass this case, and even the military bosses were participants in the case, what reason would he have to refuse?

"Please rest assured, I will definitely review it carefully."

The conversation ends.

After the deliberation began, some officials began to read out the proposal, and then entered the inquiry stage to accept inquiries from the members.

For this reason, the Cabinet, the Privy Council and the Ministry of War sent people to accept inquiries and were responsible for answering.

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

After listening carefully, this case did not happen too much, and it was even quite good.

So, inquiry and hearing actually became a formality.

Finally, the nine sectarian parliament discussed behind closed doors, half an hour later.

Li Daozong and other military lawmakers came out.

"Everyone, after listening to the inquiries of the members of the parliament and the careful answers from the Cabinet, Privy Council, and Ministry of War representatives, our Military Department carefully discussed and reviewed the military system reform case, and finally made the review results and approved it!"

Changsun Wuji breathed a sigh of relief and completed the first mission smoothly.

Ma Zhou also stood up with a smile.

In the inconspicuous position, Wei Zheng, the president of the Upper Court, sat there. He came halfway through. After hearing the result, he got up and walked out. He did not come up to say hello to everyone. He, the president of the Upper Court, received support from Zhang Chao, but it did not mean that he would stand completely on Zhang Chao's side.

He has always been only about things but not people.

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

What he most agrees with is that Zhang Chao insisted on the separation of soldiers and generals.

When the new military system is implemented and the movement of troops is completed, the army will no longer be like this now, with hundreds of thousands of troops in Zhang Chao's hand alone.

This is a blessing for the country and a blessing for the Tang Dynasty. Zhang Chao did it right this time.

Changsun Wuji smiled and nodded to Li Daozong, "Thank you."

Li Daozong smiled, "I just handled it impartially."

Ma Zhou said, "I will truthfully report what happened today to Your Majesty."

"Thank you." Li Daozong said to Ma Zhou.

Ma Zhouke was also the emperor's teacher, and now he is the Hanlin Dean who has the power to criticize the emperor, and that power is very popular.

Ma Zhou is a person who does what he says. After he goes back, he tells Li Chengqian about the situation.

"The emperor's uncle also made contributions to the Tang Dynasty." Cheng Qian sighed. Li Daozong was his cousin among the royal family. During the founding of the Tang Dynasty, he also made many contributions with his father.

"Additional Duke Li Daozong of Jiangxia is the Duke of Xia!"

Chengqian Road.

"I immediately draft an edict and then send it to the cabinet."

The emperor's decree still needs to be stamped with the approval of the cabinet and approved by the parliament before it can be considered a formal edict, otherwise it would be just a memorandum.

The decree was cursed and sent to the cabinet.

In the cabinet, Zhang Chaozheng was happy that the military system was passed so smoothly. Seeing the emperor's edict, he smiled and greeted Fang Xuanling and others. Everyone agreed to pass it in a few words.

This is also a reward for your favor.

The edict is transferred to the Shangyuan Office’s Office, and the edicts for personnel and rewards, and government orders must be reviewed here.

"Oh, Jiangxia Duke Li Daozong has been granted the title of Duke of Xia."

"What's so strange about it? Li Daozong was originally the King of Jiangxia."

However, during Zhenguan, it was later changed to the son of the right and wrong emperor. The emperor's brothers were not allowed to be granted a prince. The unspoken rule was that he would not be granted a prince if he was not the emperor's legitimate son.

Li Daozong was originally the confidant of the Supreme Emperor, but unfortunately he was covered in the Restoration Rebellion.

On this side, Li Daozong had just passed the military system reform case, and the emperor was granted the title of Duke of the State.

"I didn't expect that he had picked up a big advantage."

"Not."

The aristocratic houses are all nobles. Those who can serve as members of the six subjects are basically those top aristocrats with high reputation and qualifications, and those below the county magistrate are basically impossible to serve as members of the subjects.

It was really shocking to see Li Daozong's bad luck suddenly disappear and he was promoted from the county to the Duke of the State in a blink of an eye.

"This territory is good, you see how good a fief."

"Prepare for this case and let it be reviewed at the afternoon hearing."

"It must be passed!"

The six departments generally focus on deliberations on multiple cases, and some important cases will also be held for hearings and consultation meetings.

However, there is no need for any consultation and hearing from Li Daozong, and he will definitely have passed it.

They now have a bigger case, involving the addition of thousands of nobles, and that is the big proposal.

"I don't quite understand the teacher's many ways now?"

Zhang Chao's mansion, Su Dingfang and other disciples came to the mansion for dinner today. Su Dingfang is now the commander of the Northern Yai. After the new military system reform, Zhang Chao still plans to let him continue to serve as the commander of the Northern Yai.

As a great disciple who studied military strategy under Zhang Chao, Su Dingwen is really confused now.

He doesn't understand what the teacher wants to do?

"How can we remove the military power by ourselves? If this military system reform case is changed, then our Southern Army will be handed over. Even if I am still the commander of the Northern Yai, I don't have the same soldiers and soldiers as I sit in the commander of the Northern Yai to drink tea all day long. What's the difference between this and a idle person?"

Su Dingfang's loyalty to Zhang Chao was unquestionable. Zhang Chao raised his army and immediately raised the flag. In order to avenge his junior brother, he even personally killed the three brothers Li Tai, Li Ke and Li You.

That was the brother of the new emperor, and even the legitimate brother.

"Dingfang, then what do you think I will do? Do you continue to hold these soldiers and horses? You know that these soldiers are a volcano. When we stand on it, we may be turned into ashes by the volcano that erupts at any time."

Everyone has a chance, but Zhang Chao has more ideals. He can also control his chances and stick to his ideals.

The hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Southern Army are good, and now it is not wrong to hold them mostly in the hands of Zhang Chao's old officials, relatives and friends, but he is still a minister of the Tang Dynasty. If this does not change, he cannot hold these soldiers and horses all the time.

No one can tolerate it.

And can Zhang Chao not be a minister of the Tang Dynasty?

It was not entirely his personal prestige that he could get so much response when he raised the banner with his big flag, but he was holding the banner of the prince and using the banner of protecting the law.

If Zhang Chao raised the flag and rebelled now, it would be completely different.

Many people are often blinded by the desire for power and cannot see the facts clearly, but Zhang Chao does not.

He saw things thoroughly.

"Teacher, what if the emperor wants to cross the river and destroy the bridge, what if Changsun Wuji wants to murder the teacher?"

Zhang Chao smiled, "Chengqian definitely won't be there now, maybe in the future, but the situation must be different at that time. As for Changsun Wuji, I hand over the military power. Does Changsun Wuji want to hold the soldiers of the North Ya again? Besides, he doesn't have much control over the soldiers of the North Ya!"
