Chapter 580 Be Smart
Dozens of generals.
A group of prime ministers.
Emperor one.
Qianniuwei on the left and Baiqi on the right.
Below is the right guard array on standby.
Li Zhi looked at the generals, "I know that the army has the righteousness of robes, but this matter concerns the long-term plan of the Tang Dynasty. You, the pros and cons, have a thorough look at the pros and cons."
This is a warning from the emperor: how well you practice, whether you are a watchdog or a mountain tiger, let me see clearly, don't hide, don't exaggerate, just speak out honestly.
"start!"
What matters in drills is military orders, act according to the banner, and follow military orders to change formations.
The speed of formation change, the tightness of formation...
The speed of the transition.
It is very troublesome without a concrete floor. A group of people run wildly, stirring up countless dust.
Just as the wind was blowing, the monarchs and ministers on the stage...
Even if you don't know each other when you meet, your face is covered with dust and your temples are like frost.
Jia Pingan turned sideways, with a loyal look on his face.
Li Zhi maintained a good smile, his mouth was slightly opened, and the dust just entered.
The emperor is indeed an emperor, eating ashes so freely.
Changsun Wuji closed his eyes and mouth neatly.
The generals were all motionless, without blinking their eyes.
Li Ji glanced at Jia Pingan.
Jia Ping'an turned sideways, seemingly concerned about the emperor's situation, and even Wang Zhongliang gave him a thumbs up. But who is Li Ji, he can tell at a glance that this baby is avoiding dust on his side.
Do you avoid it like this on the battlefield?
Li Ji's eyes were full of dissatisfaction.
Jia Ping'an turned around awkwardly.
The practice of the right back looks quite imposing, but in Jia Pingan's eyes, it looks a bit like a fake.
The original Tang Dynasty was surrounded by crises, and the Turks were able to march to the Weishui River when they sneezed, and Chang'an was shocked three times overnight.
Under such a background, soldiers from all over the country took turns to guard Chang'an, and they were mentally prepared to fight before they set off. Such a mansion is naturally not bad.
But now the Turks are being beaten by the Tang Dynasty to find their teeth all over the place, lingering on their last breath...Chang'an is unprecedentedly safe.
Chang'an without pressure, so that the guards gradually looked like men, meaning guards of honor. Drilling to deal with errands, the previous guard Chang'an also dealt with errands.
It will only start now, and it is not too late to kill this sign at this time.
As long as the government soldiers can stand strong, Datang will be able to prosper for another hundred years!
Halfway through the drill, Cheng Zhijie shouted: "Stop!"
Drill is over.
Li Zhi didn't ask.
Immediately went to the right Wuwei behind
"Practice!"
…
His Majesty led a group of people out of the palace.
Pan Jinguan got the news in the duty room.
The sunshine is very moist, which makes him feel very comfortable.
"Your Majesty took the ministers and some generals to Youwuwei for review."
Pan Jinguan hummed, "Why did you suddenly review it?"
"It is said that a general who just came back from Monan wrote the memorial, saying that all the guards in Chang'an are watchdogs."
Pan Jinguan was furious, "You poor dog slave! Didn't the old masters kill him?"
"No, His Majesty said to take a look, so he went to Youwei and Youwuwei."
Pan Jinguan sneered, suddenly startled, "Monan came back? Who?"
"Tang Xu!"
…
You Wuwei.
Cheng Zhijie said with a cold face, "Stop."
Li Zhi stood there, "You don't need to read the following."
The monarch and his ministers returned to the palace.
"I heard that when a country is about to perish, warriors must first decline. It has only been a few decades since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and someone told me that the Tang army is invincible. I deeply believe it..."
Li Zhi didn't want to sit down, so the courtiers also stood up.
"The Great Tang once defeated the Turks and those powerful enemies. Everyone thought that the blade of the Great Tang would always be sharp, but a subject told me that the guards in Chang'an have gradually changed!"
Li Zhi's face was livid, "Watchdog!"
The officials bowed their heads.
"But what I want is not a watchdog, and what Tang wants is never a watchdog!" Li Zhi yelled at the officials for the first time, "What I want is a tiger, what the Tang wants is to make the people proud The invincible army. But where is all this now?"
"When I think about it deeper, I can't help but feel creepy." Li Zhi's eyes were full of worry, "If there were no memorials from Tang Xu, I would have ignored these, and the Tang Dynasty would still be invincible... The army would gradually become weak, until a powerful The enemy appears and beat Datang back to his original form!"
Following-up government soldiers were completely unreliable, and the frontier fortress was changed to a recruiting system, with long-term fixed-point service, which also provided a hotbed for An Lushan's rebellion.
—When the army becomes a recruiting system and becomes under the command of a certain general for a long time, naturally... feudal towns appear.
The expansion of ambition comes from the expansion of strength.
The festering of the government military system contributed to the decline of the Tang Dynasty.
There are many reasons for the decline of the Fubing system, such as annexation of land... There is not enough land in the first place, and then annexation, what kind of land will the Fubing who combine farming and warfare go?
But the gradual decline in the combat effectiveness of the government soldiers is also one of the reasons.
Cheng Zhijie took a deep breath, "Your Majesty, I was quite shocked by what I saw today. I think back... Actually, Zuo Wei no longer has the bravery of those soldiers in the past. The old minister is negligent."
"Ministers and others dereliction of duty."
The generals all pleaded guilty.
"How to do it?" Li Zhi suddenly remembered Tang Xu's suggestion.
"Practice severely."
This is a magic weapon.
Jia Ping huddled in a corner, thinking of strictness and difficulty, three obediences and one major.
Ma Dan, the practice becomes mere formality. Isn’t this a dead end?
The army of the Tang Dynasty is gradually declining. This is not the fault of one person... Since the destruction of Goryeo, the history of the Tang army's invincibility has been continuously rewritten.
Whether it was Xue Rengui's defeat or the failure of Wu Mei's use of troops, some people said that the generals were ineffective, and some said that Wu Mei killed many famous generals...but they all ignored the factors that caused the decline in the combat effectiveness of the government soldiers.
Subsequently, the recruitment system was added, the proportion of professional soldiers was increased, and the winning rate rebounded rapidly. No matter in the Western Regions or wherever, the opponents of the Datang army were all over the place.
But there was nothing in the mainland. The corrupt government soldiers gave An Lushan an opportunity, so under one blow, the seemingly powerful Datang collapsed instantly.
"Strictly practice." Li Zhi said slowly: "If there is a war, send more Chang'an guards..."
This is Tang Xu's suggestion.
Changsun Wuji frowned, "If there are too many transfers... Chang'an's safety is worrying."
Li Zhi shook his head, "If Chang'an is uneasy, so many troops are here. Besides, there are many Zhechong Mansions in the surrounding area. If there is any change, we only need an edict, and I will send another general. Do rebels dare to take a look at Chang'an? "
"Willing to die for His Majesty!"
Changsun Wuji blinked, at this moment he saw the late emperor in a daze.
The first emperor was able to make everyone die, which is why he was able to quickly control the Tang Dynasty after the Xuanwumen incident.
And the emperor reminded him of the first emperor at this moment.
Look at those generals, all of them are impassioned, if someone rebels at this moment, Changsun Wuji is sure that these people will tear him to pieces with their own hands.
This is Erlang's method. Beat first, and then boost morale when the generals are ashamed and angry, so that everyone will return to their hearts.
The emperor is growing!
Changsun Wuji's eyes were calm.
"All armies are strictly drilled. If there is a war, the guards are given priority. In addition, rewards and punishments must be clearly defined in the army!" Li Zhi said with a serious face: "I know some things in the army, but there is only one thing, that rewards and punishments are clear!"
Why did those common people sign up to join the Fubing? It's just for the reward.
What repentance taught the husband-in-law to seek the title of Marquis? In the eyes of the men of the Tang Dynasty, only the fame and fortune gained with swords and guns is the most tempting.
"Tang Xu..."
…
The left guard has assembled.
Just waiting for the emperor to review.
"Your Majesty returned to the palace after reviewing You Wuwei."
Bai waited.
The crowd dispersed, Pan Jinguan returned to his duty room, took off his armor, and said, "It's hot, go get some cold water."
Some people went, Pan Jinguan sat down, rubbed the center of his brows, with a smile in his eyes, "Then Tang Xu suddenly said that he dared to compare the guards to watchdogs, so those old men are not dog shepherds? And look, if I don't need to do it this time, he will be unlucky."
The little official who brought the water said with a smile: "This is a soldier who surrenders without fighting."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Pan Jinguan laughed loudly, and then said disdainfully: "He is not worthy!"
He drank a few glasses of water and ordered: "Go and find out the news."
"Duke Lu is back."
Cheng Zhijie was in charge of the left guard. As soon as he came back, he convened a discussion with everyone.
Pan Jinguan hurried over, Cheng Zhijie's face sank like water.
After everyone arrived, Cheng Zhijie scolded, "They're all a bunch of watchdogs!"
Everyone looked at each other and lowered their heads.
We are dogs, so what are you?
Old Cheng obviously didn’t want to be a dog shepherd, and after slapping the table and yelling and cursing for a while, he finally got down to business, “Earlier, when Tang Xu said that the guards had become watchdogs, this old man was furious…”
Kill him! Pan Jinguan was secretly delighted. .
"Then His Majesty, the old man and others went to Youwei and Youwuwei to review, and the situation went from bad to worse!"
Cheng Zhi beat his hands on the desk, heartbroken.
A general picked his nose, and he threw a teacup at him.
"Tang Xujiu can detect this matter in Monan, why can't you wait? The corpse is a vegetarian meal, let it go!"
"From today onwards, we must practice hard. Whoever dares to slack off, I will definitely not let you down."
Cheng Zhijie got up with a whimper, "Get out!"
Everyone quickly left.
Pan Jinguan returned to the duty room, and asked people to inquire about the news, "Go and ask Tang Xu's whereabouts."
He was a little anxious, and felt uncomfortable after sitting down, so he got up and walked around in the value room.
Tang Xu was considered young and handsome back then, otherwise he would not have been valued by the emperor. At that time, Pan Jinguan was at the gate of advancement, and the two were in the same army. Tang Xu was young and energetic, so he pointed out Pan Jinguan's mistakes, which caused Pan Jinguan to be scolded by the superior.
Although Pan Jinguan was still promoted later, the trouble Tang Xu caused him became a lingering enemy.
Fortunately, Tang Xu then went to Baiqi, and Pan Jinguan couldn't reach in.
But in the blink of an eye, Tang Xu went to Monan, and then came back again.
The so-called non-revenge is not a gentleman.
The opportunity came, how could Pan Jinguan not give Tang Xu an unforgettable revenge.
Go to Monan.
It is best not to come back for the rest of your life.
I didn't expect Tang Xu to dare to go to Shu... to take the risk of speaking.
"He wants to take a risk. If he succeeds, he can stay in Chang'an. If he can't..."
If not, Tang Xu might not be able to come back in this life.
Everyone in Chang’an has been called a watchdog by you. Who will accept you when you come back?
Unexpectedly, the emperor attached great importance to it, and took someone to review it.
"General!"
Pan Jinguan turned around.
The little official came in, "Then Tang Xu... His Majesty said that he is quite capable and far-sighted. He was originally sent to Monan, but His Majesty changed it and sent him to Youtunwei."
Fuck!
Pan Jinguan wanted to scold someone, "Where did he go to Youtunwei?"
"Say it's General Zuo Lang."
Zuo Lang will be the fifth grade, and Tang Xu has been promoted by leapfrogging in such a sudden change.
It was a blessing in disguise.
Pan Jinguan's face was livid.
Tang Xu is waiting for news at home.
"Husband, why do you look a little panicked?"
Mrs. Zhang was making an inner coat for him, and when she looked up, she saw Tang Xu in a daze.
"Why am I panicking?"
Tang Xu's heart was pounding.
But men don’t lose when they lose, and they can admit anything, but they can’t admit cowardice in front of their own wives.
This is why Tang Xu often turns into fruit.
"Lang Jun, you went to Monan... I don't know when you will come back after this trip, Da Lang and Er Lang are getting older..."
When the children grow up, the father misses the time to teach them. This is the greatest regret and hidden worry.
"Let's look at this matter again, there is no turning point."
"What turnaround?"
Ms. Zhang is happy.
"If I don't leave at home..."
"Husband!"
Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but rejoice, "That's really great."
"yes!"
My wife didn’t realize that what he said was staying at home, not staying in Chang’an.
Once the emperor was angry, or once the old men were angry, there was a high possibility that he would go home and eat old rice, so wouldn’t that just mean staying at home?
"Lady."
"What is it?"
Ms. Zhang raised her head and smiled, in a good mood. She felt that her husband was a bit handsome.
This is a difficult decision, but I have to confess, otherwise the lady will go crazy.
"Actually, I offended many people if I failed."
"Who? Those people in Monan?"
Zhang is very relaxed.
Tang Xu suddenly grabbed her hand.
"Husband, it's still broad daylight!"
Zhang's eyes narrowed slightly.
Squeeze!
"Lady, I'm afraid I'm going to offend those old men this time."
Zhang's smile disappeared.
"If you don't do it well, you will lose your official position."
Mr. Zhang forced a smile, "Husband, are you teasing me?"
"This matter... you think I will tease you?"
This man, he actually did such a stupid thing!
Ms. Zhang's eyes became more sad, and she just wanted to speak.
"Tang Lang!"
"Tang Lang!"
"Aye, I'm calling you!"
Two children jumped out, seeing that Mrs. Zhang looked wrong, they quickly stood with their hands tied.
Tang Xu is not at home, it is Mrs. Zhang who is disciplining the children. Being a father and a mother at the same time, if you are not dignified, you will not be able to restrain your children.
Tang Xu smiled and said, "Da Lang, go and open the door."
The door opened, but it was Fang Zheng who came in.
"This is…"
Tang Xu got up, Zhang got up.
Behind Fangzheng is a servant.
coming!
Tang Xu took a deep breath, and Mrs. Zhang quickly avoided, hiding behind and wiping away tears.
Who wants his man to go to the frontier?
It's just a last resort.
But this time, even the qualification to go to the frontier may be lost.
The edict is very short.
"...You Tun Wei Zuo Lang will..."
Ms. Zhang froze for a moment.
General Youtun Wei Zuolang, then... Isn't that a promotion?
And still stayed in Chang'an.
Husband, are you coaxing me?
Zhang couldn't help laughing.
She hurried to get copper coins, and after the edict was read out, she asked the servants to quietly give the money to Tang Xu.
Tang Xu had mixed feelings.
After the waiter left, Mrs. Zhang said angrily, "Your husband told lies to scare me."
I kid you not, but…
"Husband!"
Ms. Zhang changed from panic of 'husband is either going to Monan, or going home to farm' to surprise, and at this moment, he rushed over with forgetfulness.
"The child is here!"
"..."
…
Tang Xu hurried back to the imperial city to report, and received scolding and praise in Youtunwei.
The reason for scolding is because his metaphor is too hateful, it turned out to be a watchdog; and the praise is because of his vision.
Tang Xu left Youtunwei, ready to go to Baiqi.
Jia Pingan talked with him about the Fubing, especially Zhu Wei who talked the most...
He was thinking all the way, when he suddenly raised his head.
People will suddenly sense their opponents at a certain time.
It's like the opponent's hostility can be released.
In front is Pan Jinguan.
In the past, when Tang Xu met Pan Jinguan, he would consciously avoid him.
But this time he didn't move at all.
"That time Tang said about your fault, is there something wrong?"
Thinking that he almost went to Monan and couldn't return, Tang Xu threw out all the grievances, "You should remember to hate me, but what kind of hatred is this, what kind of resentment, you actually want me to never stand up..."
Pan Jinguan said coldly: "Do you dare to stand side by side with me once you succeed?"
General is the third rank, Zuo Lang will be the fifth rank.
But the fifth grade has already stepped into that threshold.
"Whoever succeeds will naturally have a fair opinion." Tang Xu said coldly: "Thanks to you, if it wasn't for your persecution, Tang would not have made such a move, thank you."
He cupped his hands in thanks.
Then waved, "Xiao Jia!"
Pan Jinguan turned around, watched Tang Xu walk over, and talked with Jia Pingan with a smile.
"Tang Xu and Jia Ping'an are friends."
said the accompanying official.
"General!"
When Pan Jinguan saw Tang Xu cupping his hands, he expressed his thanks.
"Bitch!"
The little official thought he was scolding himself, but following Pan Jinguan's line of sight, it was Tang Xu.
"Meet General Tang Lang!"
Someone passed by and saluted Tang Xu.
The spring breeze is proud of the horseshoe disease!
Tang Xu said to Jia Pingan: "You have seen those disadvantages a long time ago, why didn't you say it?"
"What's the difference between what you say and what I say?"
Tang Xu looked at him for a long time.
"Old Tang, I like women."
Jia Pingan felt that Old Tang had a tendency to break out of the cage.
"I remember."
Tang Xu turned and left.
Friendship should not be talked about, just remember it.
Jia Pingan returned to Baiqi humming a song.
"Someone in Dongshi was killed."
Ming Jing is neatly dressed and looks heroic.
Cheng Da looked at her in confusion, "It was said that the murder was caused by a quarrel, but the one who did it was You Xiaer, who has already fled."
"What did Wannian County do?"
Dong City is under the jurisdiction of Wannian County.
Ming Jing said: "That ranger was so powerful that he killed two bad people in Wannian County."
There are such murderers?
"Look and go."
Jia Pingan took people all the way to Dongshi.
"Marquis Wuyang, look, Wannian County has gone mad."
Wannian County really went crazy, everyone from the county magistrate down appeared in Dongshi.
Those officials carried horizontal knives and searched around ferociously.
Jia Ping'an saw the father-in-law Weiying.
Wei Ying is a civil official, why is she here?
"Old Wei, go to the next door and have a look."
County Wei Huang Lin led a few small officials to search.
Weiying agreed, and saw her son-in-law when she came out.
"My father-in-law."
Weiying smiled and said, "The hundred riders are here too."
"What's the matter?"
Wannian County refused to say anything, so Jia Pingan came to save the country with a curve.
Weiying whispered: "The dead man has some identity, he said he was on good terms with the Queen's family."
Samurai?
The Wu family now only has Mrs. Yang, plus Wu Shun, mother and son who came to seek refuge with his younger sister.
Mrs. Yang is very old, although she is still alive, she has no friends.
That is the people from Wushun.
"My father-in-law, is it male or female?"
"Female, lady."
Weiying sighed, "Xiao Jia!"
"My father-in-law ordered."
This old man has a really good temper, but Jia Ping'an is very respectful instead.
If you treat me well, I will treat you twice as well. This is his subconscious value.
Weiying glanced outside, then lowered her voice, "Someone said that the noble lady was not clean with others, and she was found at home, so she came to make a fuss, that woman wanted to break up that man, who knows..."
I go!
The male mistress killed someone because of love?
"The widowed wife of the Wu family came to the county in person..."
Wu Shun!
…
The last three days of this month, ask for tickets.
