my wife is mulan

Two days later, the remnants of Northern Liang forces in Zhangye City surrendered without a fight.

In November, Cao Jiao led an army to attack Jiuquan. Juqu knew that Cao Jiao had a strong army and could not compete with him, so he abandoned Jiuquan and took Minister Wu?Do you rely on you, an old man who has no strength to restrain a chicken and can fall down when the wind blows? "

The minister who was scolded was so ashamed that he hid his face and retreated to the last row.

In fact, Zhao Junsheng had the idea of ​​moving the capital a long time ago. This idea has been around for two years, but he also knows that this matter cannot be done in a short time.

Not to mention whether moving the capital will damage the interests of the ministers of military affairs of the DPRK, and whether the ministers will object, it is said that the soldiers of the various armies of the Chinese army may also have conflicts.

why?For more than ten years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, many generals and schools of the various armies of the Chinese Army have settled down in or near Qianjing. Moving to the new capital and relocating, not to mention troublesome issues, just building a new home and setting up a family business will cost a lot, and once the news of the capital relocation spreads, the land prices, housing prices and prices in Qianjing are bound to plummet until the end. No one cares about it. The lieutenant general and school have fought bloody battles for more than ten years to buy this family business. If you let them give up, will they agree willingly?One bad thing will cause big trouble.

Zhao Junsheng saw the expressions of the ministers in the court. Some people clearly opposed the move of the capital. These people were ministers with relatively high status and relatively conservative thinking.

There are also some who are of lower status but clearly support the relocation of the capital. These people have no property in Qianjing.

The attitude of some other ministers was ambiguous. They wanted to agree to move the capital, but they did not dare to support it because they were afraid of offending a large number of people.

Zhao Junsheng observed these ministers, especially those who agreed and supported the move of the capital. He wondered how many of these people really expressed their support for the move of the capital out of consideration of the future strategic layout of the country, and how many of them just wanted to make political gains. What about capital?

After some thinking, Zhao Junsheng said: "The dispute about moving the capital must not be rumored. Today's court meeting is here. Let's retreat!"

The eunuch immediately stood up and screamed, "Back to court—"

Zhao Junsheng walked to the side hall from the side, pondered for a while and summoned the eunuch to order: "Go and call Dongfang Chen, Cui Hao, Kou Qianzhi, Pei Jin, Liang Ji, Gao Yun and others!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

At this time, the ministers were not far away, and the eunuch ran over and quickly called these people back.

Zhao Junsheng met these ministers in the imperial garden.

"I'm waiting to meet your Majesty!"

Zhao Junsheng raised his hand to signal them to excuse them, and asked, "Wen Fanli proposed to move the capital, regardless of selfishness, from the perspective of the overall situation, do you want to move the capital?"

These ministers looked at each other, and Dongfang Chen had no choice but to stand up and say: "Your Majesty, from the overall situation, moving the capital is only good for me to unify the world, but there will be opposition from all sides if I want to move the capital. Your Majesty is also aware of this, judging from the current situation, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages!"

Kou Qianzhi, the national teacher, has no property, and some of his apprentices are not up to the mark. It doesn't matter whether he moves or not. He stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I think it's okay for the courtiers to object. As long as Your Majesty makes up his mind, they will Can you twist your arms past your thighs? What the veteran is worried about is the opposition from the military. As long as there is no chaos in the military, the capital move can be carried out!"

Chapter 767 Summoned

As far as these main ministers have different ideas and opinions on the relocation of the capital, it can be seen how much resistance the relocation will face. However, from a strategic point of view, no matter whether the country is aggressive or conservative, it is no longer suitable for the capital to continue. Undertake the mission and responsibilities of the capital.

The Huaihe River Basin is [-] to [-] miles from Qianjing to the southernmost control area of ​​Qianguo, and nearly [-] miles from Qianjing to the westernmost point of Liangzhou. There is also a large loss in supplies.

If the border area was attacked, the process from receiving the news to sending reinforcements and the arrival of the army would take too long, and it would not be possible to reinforce the border area in time, and it would be difficult to supply food, grass and supplies.

Zhao Junsheng thought for a long time, and said to several important ministers: "In the long run, I want to unify the world, and I can't bypass the matter of moving the capital. Only moving the capital can solve the problem of labor and expedition, and can solve the problem of too long supply lines! If I don't move the capital, I'm afraid I can only stop here, unless the Nanchao and Rouran have been corrupted to the point of hopelessness, maybe I can still pick up a bargain, but who will know when the time comes? Is there no internal problem? Even if Nanchao and Rouran are rotten to the root, if I work hard, the internal rot will be rotten and the national strength will be weak, so how can I work hard?"

"Thus, matters related to the overall strategic situation cannot be left to future generations. We will do what we can now, and try not to cause trouble to future generations. While I am still young and still have some prestige, although all forces are interested in moving the capital If you are dissatisfied with the matter, don't dare to be too presumptuous!"

Having said that, Zhao Junsheng paused for a while, and glanced at everyone, "For the sake of the overall situation, the move of the capital must be put on the agenda, but it is not immediately necessary to move the capital. This requires a process. To prevent turmoil, at least three The relocation of the capital must be completed within five years, at least ten years. No one in the audience is allowed to reveal a single word of everything I said here today!"

All the ministers bowed in unison: "I obey the order!"

The dispute for moving the capital was forcibly suppressed by Zhao Junsheng, but the ministers were still talking about it in private.

Hua Mulan also heard about this matter. When having dinner that evening, she asked Zhao Junsheng: "What do you think about the controversy of moving the capital? To move or not?"

Zhao Junsheng said while eating: "In the long run, the capital must be moved. However, moving the capital involves the interests of all parties. A sudden decision will definitely be opposed by many parties. There will be great resistance. If you want to move the capital, you will not If there is a disturbance and no disaster is left behind, this matter should not be rushed and proceed slowly!"

For Zhao Junsheng, the hidden danger of moving the capital is a lesson learned. As far as he knows, Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty moved the capital from Pingcheng to Luoyang mainly to let the Xianbei people further Sinicize and get rid of the constraints of the die-hard Xianbei nobles. The opportunity to inspect the Yuluo area stayed in Luoyang and did not leave. He cooked raw rice and cooked rice. He left those Xianbei nobles and ministers who opposed Sinicization in the north, and gave them less and less treatment. Later, officials of the Luoyang court They even called them "Northern people", which obviously did not regard those old-fashioned Xianbei nobles and generals as their own. In addition, in the late Northern Wei Dynasty, the government was corrupt and the economy was in decline. The uprising that swept across the Northern Wei Dynasty sounded the death knell of the dynasty.

Hua Mulan asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Before moving the capital, we must eliminate hidden dangers that may exist in the army! Especially the Chinese soldiers. Most of the generals and schools of the Chinese soldiers have settled down in Qianjing and bought properties. Some of the soldiers in the Chinese army have been in the army for more than ten years. At least four or five years!"

"Use two to three years to rotate the generals and schools of the Chinese army, either to border towns or to various places!"

"Starting from this year, new recruits will be recruited year by year, and veterans will be gradually retired. It is stipulated that soldiers will be retired after five years of service if there is no war. Once a war occurs, the imperial court will issue a call-up order to recruit retired veterans to join the war again!"

After hearing this, Hua Mulan said: "This is indeed a good way, but the total number of soldiers in the Chinese army is now nearly 10, and it will take at least five to eight years to complete the retirement!"

"It doesn't matter how long it takes, the most important thing is to keep enough fresh blood in the army!"

Just a few days later, Zhao Junsheng quietly began to reform the army. Several older veterans no longer held actual positions, only titles and false titles; several lieutenant generals were transferred to serve in various places.

At the same time, Zhao Junsheng issued a decree that there is no major war in Qianguo at present, and he asked the Ministry of War to retire the veterans who were too old in the army, pay them severance pay, and let them return to their hometowns. The number of people is about 1 , But it also requires the Ministry of War to recruit 1 new recruits to be filled into the armies after drills.

There are many veterans in the army who have served for a long time, and these people have long been homesick. The imperial court asked them to retire and gave them severance pay, and they were very willing.

"Your Majesty, Sima Chuzhi has arrived in Beijing, and he handed in a memorial to request an audience yesterday!" Officials from the General Administration Department came to report to Zhao Junsheng.

Zhao Junsheng took Sima Chuzhi's memorial and looked at it, and said: "Come on, Xuan Sima Chuzhi! Go and call the queen!"

"Yes!"

Hua Mulan arrived soon, and she asked, "What is calling me here?"

Zhao Junsheng said: "Sima Chuzhi is here, let's meet him together to show that we value him!"

Soon, Sima Chuzhi walked into the hall and saluted Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan: "My minister, Sima Chuzhi, pays homage to Your Majesty and Empress!"

"Sima Qing's family invites you! Come, give me a seat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Back then, Zhao Junsheng promised to give Sima Chuzhi the supreme treatment of listening to the instructions and not listening to the announcement, but later Sima Chuzhi himself asked to cancel this treatment. This is also a wise choice. In fact, in the first battle of Qizhou, his The old department has already been killed or injured to the point where few people are left, and if they want to be treated as obedient to the tune or not to the propaganda, they will be making trouble for themselves.

Zhao Junsheng, Hua Mulan, and Sima Chuzhi asked Sima Chuzhi about the family situation like usual, whether his sons were married, whether his daughters were married, how old his grandchildren were, how many concubines he had, and how many concubines he had. I asked him if his journey was going well.

The three of them were talking while drinking tea, and they talked about the victory over the Rouran people.

Zhao Junsheng asked: "Before sending Gao Jinzhi to lead the army to face Wu Ti's army, did Sima Qing's family expect such a big victory for Gao Jinzhi?"

Sima Chuzhi said: "Your Majesty, Madam, to be honest, I have a feud with Sima Chuzhi. At that time, I was still serving Wei Guo, and Gao Jinzhi was serving under Tan Daoji. The two sides fought many times. In the past few years, Gao Jinzhi Jinzhi joined the court, and he was not used to changing from an enemy to a colleague at first!"

"However, I know that Gao Jinzhi is a capable person. Although the enmity and suspicion between me and me cannot be eliminated in a short period of time, I will not bury his talent because of this. Gao Jinzhi led troops to reinforce him at that time. With Wu Chuan's money, I don't have any generals under my command who can deal with Wu Ti. I could have personally led the troops to fight against Wu Ti, but after Gao Jinzhi led the troops, I felt that this might be an opportunity for me and him. I could Commanding from the rear, he can lead troops to deal with Wu Ti, even if he is no match for Wu Ti, it is not a matter of ministers to deal with Wu Ti, I did not expect Gao Jinzhi to beat Wu Ti by a big surprise!"

Hua Mulan asked, "What kind of person does Sima Qing's family think Gao Jinzhi is?"

Sima Chuzhi thought for a while, "Personal grievances aside, I think Gao Jinzhi is a very loyal person, very talented, unparalleled in martial arts, but very stubborn!"

Zhao Junsheng smiled and said, "I didn't expect Sima Qing's family to know Gao Jinzhi so well. You must have done a lot of homework before, right?"

Sima Chuzhi was a little embarrassed, smiled and said: "I used to be enemies with him, so naturally I would send someone to find out all his details, as the saying goes, know yourself, know your enemy, and win every battle!"

Hua Mulan agreed: "That's a good saying, and there is another saying, the person who knows and understands you the most is not your friend, but your enemy!"
