Chapter 1237 Dismantling the Xiang Army!

Chapter 1237

Chong'er is doing great!

Through his eyes, Wang Gen did not hide his admiration. In the situation just now, even Wang Gen thought that Wang Chong was going to be tricked by someone, but the twists and turns made Wang Chong shine in the court meeting on the first day, which attracted the admiration of the courtiers.

From martial arts to literary arts, especially when it comes to participating in political affairs, there is a huge gap, so most generals are silent, only occasionally speaking when it comes to military affairs, but in this respect, Wang Chong obviously changed his mind. quite comfortable.

And above the main hall, on the high steps, the Holy Emperor remained motionless, as majestic as a mountain. It is impossible to fathom his emotions. But Gao Lishi on the side nodded subtly. Although Wang Chong also has the problem of young people being impulsive, but whether it is in internal affairs or military affairs, Wang Chong is indeed a formidable expert.

The discussion in Jixian County ended soon, and the targeting and hostility towards Wang Chong was obviously much less. Some civil servants occasionally mentioned Wang Chong with a sense of respect, which was completely different from the previous situation.

As time goes by, there are fewer and fewer things that need to be discussed by the court. In this respect, Datang still maintains an extremely high efficiency. Hang down and rule.

Wang Chong observed everything silently, and gradually learned about the imperial court's participation in state affairs and various mysterious procedures. Before you know it, the sun is rising three poles, and it's time to disperse the court.

His Majesty! The minister has his own play!

At this moment, an official who Wang Chong had no memory of suddenly walked out of the train. Holding the wat board in hand, he bowed respectfully.

Your Majesty has an order, so tell me!

Gao Lishi glanced at the Great Tang Emperor on the dragon chair, and suddenly said.

His Majesty,

Now that the Tang Dynasty is in peace, all the barbarians around the Tang Dynasty are taken by the forces of the Tang Dynasty, and the flags and drums are silenced, and the horses are released to Nanshan. Moreover, the court has signed agreements with various states to trade with each other. In order to reduce the taxes and corvees of the people, the minister proposed , After abolishing the Xiang army and giving a certain amount of compensation, let them return to the village, farm and produce!

boom!

As soon as the official's voice fell, the whole court immediately exploded, and all the generals glared at the official. Even Wang Chong's face suddenly changed at this moment.

Your Majesty, I object!

absurd! The Xiang army system was established by Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Taizong, and it would affect the state system, and the ministers opposed it!

Abolish the Xiang army, unless I die! You civil servants just want to target our generals! You have already brought back the young Marquis, and all the guards have been abolished, what more do you want!

Since you are so eloquent, why don't you simply withdraw all the troops and generals, and if something happens, you civil servants will go to battle in person!

In the main hall, it was like stabbing a hornet's nest. All the generals in the military were furious, and even Zhangchou Jianqiong, Minister of the Ministry of War, showed anger in his eyes.

Damn! So are you generals trying to blackmail the court?

Soon another civil servant came out of the class and yelled at him sharply.

Civil servants govern the country, military generals guard the border, this is everyone's own duty. If according to your statement, then you generals will rule the country! Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there have been wars every year, the national power is empty, and the people are wasting money. Isn't it time to take advantage of the good situation to abolish the Xiang army and improve people's livelihood!

A third strange civil servant came out of the train.

Then came the fifth and the sixth. More and more civil officials also joined in the crusade against the generals. Especially the military general who was threatening, was refuted to pieces.

Although on the battlefield, civil servants have no power to restrain chickens and are not opponents of generals at all, but the court is not a battlefield, and force is useless here. All generals, no matter how high or low they are, can't take advantage of it here.

His Majesty! The minister has his own play! The minister wants to impeach General Zheng, scare and confuse the public, and damage the state! The minister still wants to accuse him of a crime of dereliction of duty!

On the other side, King Qi winked, and his civil servants followed suit and joined in the crusade against the general.

In the court, if King Song is a staunch main war faction, then King Qi is a staunch anti-war faction. On this point, he and these civil servants are in the same line and coincide with each other.

In the main hall, Wang Chong stood at the end of the train, watching the civil servants attack the generals step by step, his pupils slowly shrank, and his eyes became colder and colder.

Khorasan's army has already retreated, and the guard troops everywhere have also been abolished. The Confucian overseer has even penetrated into all levels of the army. The military has retreated again and again. Wang Chong never expected that they would actually It's unreasonable to forgive others, and wants to take the Xiang army to the knife.

The guard armies of the frontier prefectures have been abolished. Once a war breaks out, elite Xiang troops from various places can be recruited and supplemented, and quickly return to the previous state of complete victory. However, if even the Xiang army is abolished, it will be completely destroyed Determined the foundation of Datang.

The debate between civil and military officials in the court became more and more intense. When all the generals were attacked by civil servants, a loud voice suddenly resounded in the hall.

His Majesty! The minister objected!

Hearing this voice, there was a dead silence above the huge hall, and all the arguments disappeared instantly. A famous general looked at Wang Chong's direction with an excited expression and was greatly encouraged.

Alien King!

Now in the entire military, Wang Chong has the supreme status. Although the rise time is very short, in terms of influence, even the two frontier generals can't compare with him.

The weight of Wang Chong alone surpassed all the generals in the hall. Not to mention that Wang Chong was born in a prominent position, and his grandfather Wang Jiuling was a virtuous minister respected by all people in the Tang Dynasty. This is not comparable to any general.

Mr. Wang, what do you mean by this?

At this moment, the strange civil servant who proposed to abolish the Xiang Army suddenly turned his head and looked at Wang Chong, and other people's eyes also fell on Wang Chong. The entire hall could hear a pin drop, and the atmosphere became tense and subtle.

Your Majesty, I believe that the proposal to abolish the Xiang Army is unnecessary and can be abolished directly!

Wang Chong didn't even pay attention to the civil servant who was speaking, but looked up at the Holy Emperor above the main hall.

Wang Chong! You wanton! The battles of the Protectorate's Houses from all sides have already caused a great burden on the people. Do you still want to continue like this?

Another civil servant came out, thoroughly angered by Wang Chong's attitude.

So, what do you mean, the soldiers risk their lives in the frontier to defend their homes and the country, they are enjoying extravagance, right?

Wang Chong turned his head and glanced at the civil servant who spoke, his eyes were extremely cold.

Hearing this sentence, the civil servant was suffocated and couldn't speak immediately. Even if he had the guts, no matter how dissatisfied he was with the soldiers, he would not dare to say such a thing.

His Majesty! I want to impeach these civil servants who confuse the public with evil words and harm the state system! I request His Majesty and the others to remove their official positions and deal with them strictly!

Wang Chong said coldly.

From stepping into the hall to now, Wang Chong's impression has always been gentle and serious, but the proposal to abolish the Xiang army completely angered him. This was the first time Wang Chong had impeached civil servants in the court after he became king, and there were more than a dozen people at a time.

In an instant, in the court hall, the aggressive aura of the civil servants was immediately suppressed a lot. Although Wang Chong participated in the court affairs as a counselor of Pingzhang, his identity was there after all. King, its weight is not comparable to ordinary people.

Among all the civil and military officials of the imperial court, even Wang Chong's uncle Wang Gen was inferior in status to Wang Chong, let alone other people.

Wang Chong! presumptuous! The old man knows that you have just been canonized, and it is the time when you are proud of the spring breeze and young. But you have just participated in the court meeting for the first time, and you actually know that it is audacious to manipulate your identity and bully other ministers. It was Gao Zu and Emperor Taizong who were willing to advise the officials, and it was also adopted by the kings of all dynasties. Blocking the way of speech is tantamount to deceiving the saints and bringing disaster to the Tang Dynasty. Your Majesty, the old minister impeached the foreign king Wang Chong, acted recklessly, blocked the way of speech, and asked His Majesty to take back his title, demote him to a commoner, and never hire him!

Suddenly, an old voice came. At the top of the main hall, close to the white jade steps and where the Holy Emperor is, the old grand master, who was motionless in a red sandalwood grand master's chair, suddenly stood up, turned around, and looked at Wang Chong at the bottom of the hall. It was extremely cold.

Old teacher, Zhan Zhongmi!

Among the civil servants of the entire Tang Dynasty!

As soon as the grand master opened his mouth, the entire hall felt like a cold wind passing through, from the vibrant early spring to the bitter winter. The entire court was as silent as cicadas, and even the generals dared not speak casually, and even the king of Song changed his face slightly. The old lady is highly respected and has great influence. If Wang Chong can't deal with it well, it may affect his future career and future.

King Song was worried about Wang Chong's future, but Wang Chong's thinking was completely different from King Song's.

snort!

Wang Chong snorted coldly, even in the face of this respected old grand master of Tang Dynasty, he didn't have the slightest intention of giving in. The strategy of the Xiang army is the foundation of the country, and the Confucianism is too deceitful, and they still want to tamper with the foundation of the military school. Let alone the old grand master today, even if he is ten times more powerful, he will never back down.

This is no longer a simple dispute between civil and military, military and Confucianism, but has shaken the cornerstone of this empire. If Wang Chong backs down, I am afraid that the entire Tang Dynasty is really not far from extinction.

Grand Master, you are the elder of the Second Dynasty, Wang Chong has always respected you! Unexpectedly, your selfishness is so serious. For the sake of your own selfishness, you actually abolished the public because of your own selfishness. It is really disappointing and shameless!

Unexpectedly, Wang Chong's red gown robe suddenly stepped forward, and the first sentence he spoke caused an uproar in the hall.

Chonger!

Wang Gen shouted hastily, his face paled a lot. The status of the old grand master is very important, and his influence is too great to directly contradict him. After all, Wang Chong is still too young.

presumptuous! Even if Wang Bowu is here today, he would not dare to do this! Is that what he taught you? !

The old grand master was furious, and the whole hall was buzzing.
