Military ministers with military power and military ministers without military power are completely different concepts.

Most of the military officials in the Song Dynasty were those without military power.

Even if it has some influence on the army, it can affect only a few soldiers and horses.

Just like what Pan Chengyu said.

Shi Yuansun shouted that he could mobilize 250,000 horses and horses, but in the end, those who could join them in the rebellion were only more than 20,000, and they might not even be able to get over 10,000.

Shi Yuansun wanted to use more soldiers and horses to cause chaos, so he had no choice but to pass on false orders.

On the pretext of suppressing bandits, suppressing rebellion, and serving the king, he led his troops to cause chaos.

The key is, he may not succeed yet.

Because the supervisors, officials, clerks, etc. who are stationed in the army will definitely ask him to issue military symbols, seals, arrows, edicts and the like.

If he can't produce anything, the military supervisors, officials, clerks, etc. will definitely not listen to him.

Not only would he not listen to him, he would also tell the soldiers in the army not to listen to Shi Yuansun.

Unless the soldiers voluntarily followed Shi Yuansun in rebellion, it would be difficult for Shi Yuansun to mobilize the soldiers.

The perfect and strict military supervision system of the Song Dynasty was not built for nothing.

The military supervision system is like a tight spell that tightly applies to everyone in the military.

I can imprison you to death at any time.

Previously, Kou Zhun streamlined the army and horses in the world, causing a mutiny.

That's because Kou Zhun's actions affected the interests of everyone in the army, including some soldiers who had been soldiers all their lives and wondered whether they could survive after leaving the army.

Kou Zhun disturbed the jobs of the soldiers. The soldiers wanted to keep their jobs and had the idea of ​​​​rebellion.

In order to save their share of soldiers' blood, the military lieutenants and generals also had the idea of ​​​​rebellion.

Chaos will occur only when everyone above and below has the idea of ​​​​causing chaos.

At this time, the supervisors will be killed immediately to sacrifice the flag.

If only the lieutenants and generals had the idea of ​​causing rebellion, the soldiers did not.

Then it will be very difficult for a lieutenant general to cause chaos.

He can't pass the level of soldiers, nor can he pass the level of overseeing the army.

If Shi Yuansun wants to cause chaos, the first thing he has to face is these two levels.

Apart from cheating, there seems to be no other way to pass these two levels, so Shi Yuansun will definitely use deception.

But this method does not last long and is easily broken.

Why did the Cao and Li families decisively choose to give up their profits when Zhao Zhen was investigating the status of military pay in previous years?

It's because they know that mutiny is too difficult.

That's why he decisively surrendered to Zhao Zhen.

If the mutiny were really easy, the Cao and Li families might not be so easy to surrender. Computer version::/

Of course, in addition to the difficulty of mutiny, there is also the reason why one is in wealth and is unwilling to take risks for the sake of wealth.

When a person is penniless, driven by profit, it is easy to go to extremes and be willing to gamble his life.

But when a person is in wealth and has a lot of benefits at hand, he is no longer willing to gamble his life for petty profits.

It was because of the above two reasons that it was impossible for many martial artists to fight Zhao Zhen to the death. The final result was that Zhao Zhen easily dealt with them.

Greedy people like Shi Yuansun who live in wealth but are willing to risk their lives to fight for petty profits are, after all, in the minority.

It is this minority of people that Zhao Zhen needs to deal with ruthlessly.

Unfortunately, the strength gap between Shi Yuansun and Zhao Zhen is too big.

Like an egg hitting a stone.

Nothing good will come of it.

Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji didn't even take a break after dealing with the emperor's relatives. They decisively dealt with Wu Xun because they knew that Wu Xun was similar to the emperor's relatives.

Not difficult to deal with.

The really difficult ones to deal with are the civil servants and the wealthy businessmen in the world.

They were the most difficult group of people to deal with when Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji were reforming.

Don't use extreme measures. Any extreme measures may cause a huge backlash.

More importantly, they have hostages in their hands.

The hostages in their hands are the people of the world.

Kou Ji heard Zhao Zhen's words and pondered: "Has anyone noticed the clues and made any suggestions to the officials?"

Zhao Zhen nodded slowly and said: "Some people spread rumors in Suzhou and other places, saying that I will follow your actions in Hexi, Northwest and other places, clear out the rich households in the world, and distribute the land in the world equally to the people.

Rich households in Suzhou and other places have begun to resist.

Business people have begun to use various reasons to avoid paying taxes.

Official documents issued in the yamen will be torn up before they go to the countryside.

Government officials who go to work in the countryside will also be stopped outside the countryside."

Kou Ji frowned subconsciously.

It sounds like a trivial matter, but once it sweeps across the entire Jiangnan, it is no longer a trivial matter.

Zhao Zhen took a deep breath and said: "What's more important is that the governor of Suzhou was sued to the Jiangning Mansion Yamen, claiming that he embezzled a total of three hundred thousand dollars during his governance of Suzhou.

The person who testified was a civil servant from the Zhizhou Yamen in Suzhou.

This matter spread, and people in Suzhou were filled with resentment.

The prefect of Jiangning Prefecture asked me to kill the prefect of Suzhou to calm the people."

"hiss……"

Kou Ji took a breath of air and said in a deep voice: "The governor of Suzhou knows that he has read his files when he was an official. This person served in Suzhou for two terms. Although he did nothing, he did not plunder the people's wealth.

He hid in his house all day long, reciting poems and painting.

No matter how big or small the affairs are in Suzhou.

If he says he doesn't do anything, I believe him.

But I don't believe it when he says he embezzled 300,000 yuan.

During his tenure, all matters in Suzhou were handled by assistant officials, officials, civil and military officials in the yamen. He never had any power in Suzhou, so how could he plunder the people's wealth and anoint them.

This person must have been framed by his subordinates."

Zhao Zhen said in a deep voice: "But he has caused public resentment. Do you think I should kill him or not?"

Kou Ji thought for a moment and said, "Send someone to escort him back to Beijing first."

Zhao Zhen pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "That's all we can do..."

Zhao Zhen's handling of the emperor's relatives and Wu Xun had already made the civil servants feel the signs, so some of them couldn't wait to put pressure on Zhao Zhen.

There is no sign at all. If I say I am going to embarrass you, I will embarrass you.

It's like a provocation, but also like a warning.

But neither Kou Ji nor Zhao Zhen are people who like to be provoked and warned.

The monarch and his ministers did not stay on the city gate tower for long, and each returned to their respective residences.

Two days later.

The gangsters who robbed eight Yizijiaozi shops in Jiangning Prefecture and other places were escorted into Bianjing City.

Although they were intercepted several times along the way, they were still escorted back to Bianjing City intact.

Although many people relented and no longer conspired with Shi Yuansun.

But someone still sent people to intercept and kill the culprits.

The purpose is to reduce one's own guilt.

However, they obviously did a useless job.

Because after the gangsters arrived in Bianjing City, Kou Jixuan did not interrogate them and went to arrest them directly according to the list given by Zhao Zhen and Zhang Zhibai.

Those who embezzled military pay and participated in robbery plans were not spared.

Even Cao Mansion, Li Mansion, and Kou Ji sent people to arrest people.

The disciples and clansmen of Cao Mansion and Li Mansion, as long as they made mistakes, would have long been captured and waiting in the manor.

As soon as the men sent by Kou Ji arrived, they took the initiative to hand over the prisoners and donated some property as stolen money.

It's not that simple for other martial artists who are subdued.
