Chapter 30 Li Min is more difficult, Zhengde lives by virtue 8

Dang Shining's father was the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War and belonged to the family sect in the civil service system. He had always been dissatisfied with military nobles, and now he would mock him if he had the opportunity.

Qu Shijin smiled and said, "The military is afraid of the cabinet, so he refuses to expand the size of the army.

Otherwise, the army will be too large and the logistics and supplies will be controlled by civil servants. In the long run, the control of the army will not be maintained..."

This was the case in Zhou Tunan's Ming Dynasty in his previous life. Civil servants controlled the military's logistical power and procuratorial power, and over the past decades, they suppressed the military.

So much so that the famous generals like Qi Jiguang had to write to the visits of Zhang Juzheng, the chief minister of the cabinet...

Of course, the nobles of the Governor's Office of the Five Army are not stupid, and they will definitely try to avoid such things.

Small-scale army is easily controlled by them.

However, it has to be said that this small and refined military policy is becoming increasingly incompatible with the current situation!

Zhou Tunan said leisurely: "It seems we have to find a way to expand the army..."

But what to do is to be considered by good students.

After all, it is not to mention whether the Governor's Office of the Five Army is willing or not.

Even if you are willing, in the long run, this will give the cabinet civil servant system the opportunity to intervene in controlling the army.

But in the short term, it has also caused the military to increase its power sharply.

It is easy to break the balance that has been finally established today.

I even have to worry about whether there are hot-headed military bosses who directly launch a coup...

So the cabinet does not want the army to expand.

But it is obvious that in order to deal with the infiltration of evil gods' power into this world, military expansion is imperative!

"Unless...unless...unless another army is created in addition to the system of the Five Army Governor's Office!

And this may be my chance to interfere in military power!”

Zhou Tunan thought in his heart.

The emperor and the cabinet successively urged the Governor's Office of the Five Armies to eliminate the evil god believers as soon as possible, which greatly increased the pressure on the military.

All localities mobilized troops to boost the pressure.

However, when the gourd was pressed, the local army here had just transferred away to suppress the rebellion and lost its suppression, the local evil gods believed in the rebellion started again.

All the shortcomings of the subordinates of the Governor's Office of the Five Army, which had too little military strength, emerged.

In this case, the emperor made the first proposal to increase the number of troops.

However, it was rejected by the cabinet and the Governor's Office of the Five Army at the same time.

The railway construction site was not protected enough, so it began to build its own guards.

The two evils are the least of the two evils. Faced with such a situation, the cabinet and the Governor's Office of the Five Army temporarily agreed.

The guards can still be cancelled afterwards, but once the number of troops increases, it will be difficult to reduce them.

However, even so, in the face of the chaos in the world, the rebellion of evil god believers one after another is helpless.

After all, although the promulgation of the Thirteen Articles on Welfare and Benevolent Affairs has alleviated many contradictions.

However, it has not been completely solved. In addition, many places are not implemented effectively and the incitement of evil god believers, turmoil in various places is still one after another.

Fortunately, there are also thirteen articles on moral integrity, benevolence and political affairs that have greatly alleviated social conflicts, and the officers and soldiers suppressed them in a timely manner.

Small turmoils were coming one after another in various places, but they were never able to lead to large-scale rebellion.

However, the Lihuaser Kingdom refused to sign a contract with Da Chu easily, and the war in Hualu continued.

It will never be able to fight the rebellion with all its might!

Under this stalemate, Zhou Tunan's energy not only did not continue to grow, but instead began to show signs of slow weakening!

Although the reduction was not much, there were only seven or eight air numbers in total.

But this has begun to show the disadvantage of the situation!

In less than half a year, the cabinet could not hold on to this stalemate of continuous rebellion and suppression.

The two fronts made the Great Chu constantly lose blood, and the money in the national treasury was spent like flowing water.

The national debt has been added to two periods, and the war has never ended.

The cabinet could not support it first and began to have voices of agreeing to increase the number of troops to suppress the rebellion.

But I don’t want to increase the strength of the Governor’s Office of the Five Army!

The Governor's Office of the Five Army was also afraid that the new army established would be controlled by the cabinet civil service system.

In this case, the emperor proposed the idea of ​​handing over the newly established army to royal control.

The Cabinet and the Governor's Office of the Five Army disagreed first!

However, when the emperor proposed that this new army would not be stationed in the capital in the future, the Governor's Office and the cabinet agreed one after another.

The army is not under the nose, and the so-called commander is just a name.

I have no worries at all that the emperor can truly command this army.

The Governor's Office of the Five Army believes that it is professional and able to control the army.

And the cabinet also thinks it has a chance...

So this army, known as the Imperial Guard, began to be formed.

All parties put their hands in to compete for the control of the army.

The emperor also sent representatives to command the army on behalf of the emperor, but did not possess actual power.

It is just that this army must nominally respect the emperor, and the actual control is handed over to the military, and the logistics power is still handed over to the cabinet.

On the surface, this is good, but the emperor's representative Qu Shijin and others began to spread the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor and patriotism among the imperial guards.

When practicing in the queue, you have to shout the emperor's slogan forever when eating and sleeping!

Since the emperor did not directly involve military power, the cabinet and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies needed the emperor's support for their own side, they acknowledged that these existed.

And while this 100,000-person Imperial Guard was formed, Zhou Tunan's weakening energy began to slowly recover.

The new Imperial Guards will train for three months, and then take it out to combat the rebellion...

The army requirements in this era are not too high. Three months are barely enough to form an army!

...

...

"Bang!"

With a dull sound, the four guards held the logs as thick as buckets and hit Ishilbeth hard, making a dull sound.

However, Ishilbeth did not move a step and took the impact as if nothing had happened.

The wind sounded in my ears, and a guard waved his hammer and hit Ishilbeth hard on the temple from the side.

There was still only a muffled sound, and Ishilbeth's head was slightly tilted and he could bear it.

Another sharp stabbing sword stabbed directly into Ishilbeth's chest.

The stabbing sword seemed to stab a stone, and it was bent immediately, showing how powerful it was.

This time, Ishilbeth's chest was stabbed three feet by a stabbing sword. Although it was finally broken!

The blood flowed out, and the doctor next to him saw it and quickly came up to stop the bleeding for Ishilbeth.

I don’t know if the medicine they applied was effective or Ishilbeth’s skill in practicing martial arts. After a moment, his wound had stopped bleeding automatically, and his wound was recovering quickly and scabbed quickly!

Ishilbeth was very open and left the doctor away, and returned to the school to practice as if nothing had happened.

A punch hit the wooden stake, and the heavy wooden stake made of good wood cracked and flew around with a crack.

With an elbow hit, the entire wooden stake broke.

It seemed as if the wooden stake was in his hands, but it was like a bubble!

Applause came from the side, and Ishilby looked over and saluted quickly: "Your Majesty, why are you here?"
Chapter completed!
