Chapter 432: Liao Kingdom, which is struggling
Zhang Feng, Xu General bowed and listened respectfully. Although the officials were talking in a mess, they were actually giving them some focus. This is an important national policy after the change of the Ring Road next year!
Zhao Xu spoke intermittently for a while, then looked towards Kaifeng City, his eyes slowly narrowed, his hands were raised, and said lightly: "I will arrive in Beijing on the sixth day of the 10th."
Zhang Feng, Xu Jiang looked at each other, and the two of them had a hint of solemn expression, and they bowed and said, "I will receive the order."
Zhao Xu's thoughts turned from the north to Kaifeng City. What kind of plot is being performed now?
Zhao Xu smiled in his heart and continued to move forward, saying: "The military reform needs to be further deepened, including military titles, ranks, military system, number, deployment, commander and military-civilian relations, etc. The Privy Council and the Ministry of War must come up with a whole charter, not to deviate from my considerations. Some of your ideas are too old and you must be brave enough to break through, not to be self-confidenced and trap a corner..."
Zhang Feng and Xu Jiang bowed and did not answer the conversation immediately.
The idea of the official in front of him greatly broke through the "ancestral system" and almost completely denied the military system since the founding of the Song Dynasty. This is not only a system reform, but also an unprecedented impact on people's hearts!
"Checks and Balances" are the foundation of the founding of the Song Dynasty. It is everywhere and has been throughout a hundred years. However, the official in front of him broke all these "Checks and Balances" and continued to centralize power upward, which is difficult for the Song people to accept.
The official in front of him was wise and decisive. He had just defeated Xixia and had unprecedented prestige. How many people could resist his words?
Zhang Feng and General Xu expressed many different opinions on Zhao Xu either tactfully or directly or indirectly, but they were ignored or refuted by Zhao Xu.
'I hope Mr. Zhang can have a solution.' Xu Jiang said silently in his heart.
"Military Reform" concerns the country and society, and there should not be any carelessness.
The tragedy of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms is still tingling and terrifying whenever I think of it.
While Zhang Ju, Xu Jiang and others were thinking hard, Chen Jun, the Minister of Works, had already arrived in Shangjing.
He was facing questions from the new Minister of War of Liao Kingdom Xiao Tiancheng, and the many swords and axes outside.
Xiao Tiancheng's face was gloomy and angry. He stared at Chen Zhen and shouted: "Mr. Chen, this is not the first time you and me have been dealing with each other. Your country is untrustworthy. Is it targeting Li Xia or for me? Do you really think that I, Da Liao, can you bully me?"
This is the Honglu Temple of Liao Kingdom. Chen Xian sat on a chair. Behind him were officials of all levels who came this time. Many of them looked pale, trembling, and fearful.
If this is a disagreement, they may explain it here in this country of tigers and wolves!
Chen Zhen was so happy that he was not afraid of such a situation and sneered: "Shangshu Xiao would turn the tables! What did the conspiracy say? Xia Liao is the relationship between a father-in-law and son-in-law, and I am the lord of the Song Dynasty. The Xia people should report to me every move, and I have to my emperor's permission! As soon as the conspiracy was signed, you, Liao, will the Xia people instruct you to help you suppress the rebellion in Liao. I want to ask, Shangshu Xiao, are you attacking Li Xia or I attacking my Song Dynasty?"
Xiao Tiancheng's face was gloomy and his murderous intent was not concealed at all.
In the original plan of the Liao Kingdom, Chage's 50,000 army had already arrived behind Basi's mother's army. The Liao Dynasty also mobilized 300,000 troops to be encircled and completely eliminated the rebels!
However, unexpectedly, the Song people suddenly made a move. Chage's 50,000 army was forced to return to the army. Basi's mother's army retreated calmly. His 300,000 army of the Great Liao Dynasty formed a joke!
A large army of 300,000 will consume countless food and grass every move. Over the years, even the richest country will not be able to hold on, let alone the winter is about to begin!
This year cannot be pacified, and the Liao court will pay more next year!
Besides, without Li Xia's cooperation, it would be even more difficult for him to suppress the rebellion of the Liao Kingdom!
In an already difficult situation, the Song people suddenly made a move, how could Xiao Tiancheng not be angry?
