Chapter 238 The Singing of Left and Right Phases
As expected, after Xu Yi explained the reason clearly, the court still had a short period of silence.
The ministers were unable to determine the saint's thoughts, so they had no way to start. Xu Yi's so-called connections with court officials were also unable to understand what Xu Yi wanted to do for a while.
It is almost impossible to cancel the Shence Army. Since the beginning of the Shence Army's establishment, the trap set by Xu Yi was too big......... It is higher than the treatment of the Sixteen Guards, and their families have their own livelihoods, living in Chang'an, etc.
Such conditions are not met by any military commander.
As for directly dispersing the retired service... This is a group of soldiers who are familiar with firearms. Although the officials have always said that firearms are overused, everyone knows in their hearts that even if the border troops are belittling the role of firearms, once they flow into the people, they will have a shocking case at any time.
Even the saints could not conclude for a moment: "My dear friends, can you be concerned about this matter? Since it has become a topic today, let's talk about how to deal with it as a proper solution......"
Xu Yi can't say anything more at this time, even Cui Huan can't take the lead in mentioning Xu Yi's purpose of going out.
Let’s see what the courtiers say first.
The court officials of the entire dynasty meeting were also confused.
Obviously, the saint did not mean to withdraw the Shen Ce Army, or to say that it was out of hesitation.
If I had known that Wang Zhongsi had been escorted back to Beijing, I would not have arranged all positions so early.
As a military governor of the four towns, Wang Zhongsi was exempted from the vacancy. There should have been a lot of vacancy, but the multi-party battle has led to the appointment of military governors of all parties.
During this period, there were too many coordination and compromises. The benefits thrown out and the benefits gained have basically taken shape. If you push them back at this time, you will not agree to it, let alone the saints, even those forces are entangled.
"Your Majesty, Xu Hou has repeatedly emphasized the combat capabilities of the firearms and the Shence Army, but the local governor has repeatedly reported the disadvantages of firearms for many years, and the policy of promoting firearms is indeed not complete."
"In this way, I think it is better to let the Shence Army as a whole and go abroad to guard the border. In this way, the Shence Army can be temporarily retained, and the Xu Hou's words can be verified whether it is true."
"Only by placing the Shence Army on the front line, that is, the front line with the most frequent battles, can such a goal be achieved......"
Xu Yi and Cui Huan analyzed that once this matter was discussed at the court meeting, there would definitely be those who would take advantage of Xu Yi, or they would have wanted Xu Yi to go out but dared not advocate it first.
Whether it is the Imperial Concubine or the Princess, no one dares to provoke him.
But if Xu Yi insisted on his own opinion on keeping the Shen Ce Army and Firearms, he would have the opportunity to provide methods for others, and it would be natural for others to pay for the expenses outside of Chang'an.
Follow the official account: Book Friends Base Camp, follow it and get cash and order coins!
Sure enough, Li Linfu spoke, speaking with a high-sounding sound... It was really a benchmark and example for sages to solve their problems.
"Your Majesty, the Shen Ce Army is the personal army of the emperor and has the responsibility to defend the capital. Besides, the power of firearms is well known. Such hasty release of the Shen Ce Army is really arbitrary to the court."
"I think that the strategy of promoting firearms should continue to be implemented, strictly follow the standards set by Xu Hou, and disperse the soldiers of the Shence Army and the firearms among the armies. At the same time, add new recruits to the Shence Army, and realize replacement, and finally achieve the idea that His Majesty once equipped the entire army with firearms."
When Xu Yi heard Yang Guozhong's words, he was all determined to curse.
I finally created such a direction, what are you saying? The key is that Yang Guozhong’s advice is the most correct and the most beneficial approach to the Dasheng Dynasty.
Of course, this is only possible when both the local government and the court are willing to promote firearms, and they can tie their belts tightly to overcome difficulties.
pity······
In this case, even if Xu Yi knew that Yang Guozhong wanted to stay in Chang'an as his help, he had to repay Yang Guozhong with a smile against his will to show his gratitude.
The more Xu Yi did this, the more Li Linfu felt that Xu Yi and Yang Guozhong were colluding.
Originally, Yang Guozhong, whose current upward trend has put pressure on Li Linfu. If Xu Yi is added... Xu Yi not only has the support of the imperial concubine and the eldest princess, but also has a lot of connections in the court. Even Li Linfu, he is a little reluctant to give up his profits in Xu Yi's industry.
Once Yang Guozhong and Xu Yi really colluded, or even joined forces, the power in the court was not only Li Linfu, but also the prince's group, and it would be difficult for him to compete with him.
Li Linfu looked at Li Shizhi and looked at the prince... The prince might not be able to speak casually, but Li Shizhi...
Li Shizhi also saw it and seemed to understand the other party's meaning: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the current dispute is the border army, that is, the army of Jiedu, who often participates in the war, and the Shence Army itself."
"The focus of the dispute is whether the firearms really have the effect of joining the Xu Hou. The only thing that can prove this is to reorganize the entire Shence Army into a border army, use firearms to fight against foreign enemies, and make a judgment based on the victory or defeat on the battlefield."
"In addition, the beginning of this issue today is because the Shen Ce Army and the Firearms Workshop were difficult to survive. If the Shen Ce Army and the Firearms Workshop continue to be kept in Chang'an, the imperial court would inevitably allocate a large amount of funds to be used for the Firearms Workshop and the Shen Ce Army to overcome the difficulties."
"So, the old minister thought that placing the Shence Army in the border state was the best solution......"
I have to say, if this person has a tendency, he can say anything with his mouth.
Li Shizhi's words made Xu Yi admire him so much, and they were almost the most appropriate reason that Xu Yi expected.
The whole court was shocked, and no one expected that Li Shizhi and Li Linfu would actually stand on the united front.
Once the left and right phases are unified, even the saints need to consider carefully.
The feeling of the court meeting at this time was as if they were really considering the court. They all abandoned their own power positions and completely stood on the court's standpoint to discuss matters.
Even Yang Guozhong didn't speak for a while. As a third party in the court, his power was still slightly weak and was less than able to compete with the two forces.
The key is that it seems that the saint has been persuaded.
"Your Majesty, in the second year of Chang'an, Anxi Protectorate, divided Anxi into two parts and set up Anxi and Beiting Protectorate."
"In fact, even if the two Protectorate Mansions Anxi and Beiting are divided into different areas, they are still the largest Protectorate Mansion in our dynasty in terms of territory."
"It is really not true that the old minister is now in charge of the Grand Governor of Anxi. Gao Xianzhi is also responsible for serving as the Deputy Governor of Anxi. I think it is possible to divide the Anxi Protectorate into two, Gao Xianzhi leads one army in the Beiting Protectorate, and Xu Hou leads one army in the Anxi Protectorate."
"In this way, the army of the former Anxi Protectorate does not need to withdraw from Anxi, and will not affect the defense of the entire original Anxi. At the same time, Xu Hou led the Shence Army in Anxi, he can also verify whether the firearm has the power that Xu Hou said..."
