"I see!"
I used to wonder why the pragmatic Wu Dynasty had highly overlapping military departments. I thought it was decentralization, but I didn't expect that there had been no top advisers for several generations.
Also, if there were top advisers to help, why would the Wu Dynasty need forty years ago? How could one fall into the Song Dynasty's plan without knowing it?
"During the military merits of the Qin Dynasty, few of Qian Mo's disciples studied. We in the Wu Dynasty imitated the Qin system and established our own military merit system. Logically speaking, we should also follow the example of the old Qin people, control the right to study, and cut off the opportunities for Qian Mo's disciples to study. , there is absolutely no need to set up a hundred-character assessment test in the imperial examination, and if it is set up, there is no need to take the imperial examination?"
"The imperial examination in other countries is to win over the nobles, while the imperial examination in our dynasty is to cultivate counselors. Unfortunately, top counselors are not so easy to train, especially for someone like you who is good at controlling people's hearts and has an upright character. Don't have any psychological burden. Show yourself well, our generation has arrived and sooner or later we have to make way for others!"
Song Hai looked sad.
If the Wu Dynasty had top advisers who wanted to assist them, how could they have forcibly attacked the Bingzhou warlords five years ago and almost ended the country's fortunes.
For forty years, if the Wu Dynasty had top advisers giving advice, how could they be bullied to this extent by the Song people?
Not to mention that the Wu Dynasty didn't have top-notch counselors, and even the Six Kingdoms don't have them now.
The same goes for the Ming Dynasty's Xinxue saints. Saints are comparable to perfect people, but perfect people only have their own requirements and cannot become counselors.
Fang Fang smiled. His family knew about his situation. What kind of strategist was he? But he just knew a little more. There happened to be a corresponding disintegration case. It was just luck.
"Okay, let's not talk anymore. I still need to rush back. The alliance will be held on the third day of September. It's not long. I'll give you three days. In the early morning of four days later, go to Shiliting Pavilion in Qudong City. I will wait for you there!"
…
"gentlemen!"
After Song Hai left, Xiaohu got into the room. When he saw the imperial edict stacked on the table, he said, "This is..."
"See for yourself!"
It is said to be an imperial edict, but in fact it is a certificate of birth. Don't underestimate this certificate. In the future, he will follow Fang Fang and become the heel in Fang Fang and the officialdom.
Compared with the real imperial edict on a scroll, the imperial edict folded into a square scarf is more convenient to carry, which can be regarded as a kind of care for the imperial family of the Wu Dynasty.
After all, it all follows the rules of etiquette, and everything is too troublesome. Not only do you need to set up an altar table at home to show respect, but you also need to arrange a separate carriage when you go out to serve as an official. It is really troublesome to wait for the retreat.
Good guy!
Looking through the scarf, Xiaohu's eyes widened. Sir, this can't be accumulated just by the number of people. Although the approval process for each military title is not as complicated as the Lord, the time process is also very long, as usual in previous years. They are all summarized at the end of the year, and the answers will not be given until March or April. If you miss the time, you have to wait a year.
After all, he is the sworn brother of the superior, and he is also his own husband. After August, he will grow up a step further.
That future...
"Xiaohu is here to congratulate sir, your lordship is expected!" Xiaohu respectfully folded the square scarf and said with a smile on his face.
"I'm just a concubine. I don't know how far away from the Lord. It's too early to say this. Song Hai gave me three days. In fact, it was only one day. I informed the brothers in the village that a meeting will be held later to solve any problems. It will be solved immediately!”
The title of concubine seems to be only a little further away from the earl. It takes two steps to make a big move, but how many people have been stopped by these two steps in the past three hundred years?
How many people are buried with the purpose of creating a military title, but all sentient beings have not obtained the title.
"This is different. Sir, he is only in his early twenties now. The achievements he has made are becoming more and more important with time. The first phase of the work-for-relief program will end in two years. The money will return. The future is just around the corner. Da Shang He is not far away, and the probability of getting a knighthood before the age of thirty is extremely high!" Xiaohu didn't think so.
Even without the support of superiors, the things that Fang Fang does are all contributions to continuous growth. The longer time goes by, the greater the contribution will be. As long as you are not blind, you can't stop the existence of contribution.
Fang Fang smiled and said, "Stop talking nonsense and arrange a meeting!"
…
"Master Fang, you didn't go with Song Hai. I thought Master Fang was going to Yuyang?"
"What do you know? Yuyang is important, but things are not simple here. The contract is about to be fulfilled. If Master Fang leaves directly, wouldn't it mess up the overall situation?"
"But things are not right now. Now it is just for Yuyang's negotiation. There is no need for Song Hai to do it himself. He can just find a messenger to complete the matter. Does Song Hai have that much time?"
Niu Zhang brought four thousand patrol troops and horses to support Yuyang. He has been there for more than a month. Song Hai is the only one who can take charge of the North Palace. It is understandable that Niu Zhang is alone in Song Hai. Now that Niu Zhang is not here, Song Hai He still came by himself.
"Do you think it's possible that, in addition to Yuyang's important people, Song Hai also made this trip to convey an edict?"
A wise man whispered something, and everyone rubbed their chins in thought.
Don't tell me, this possibility is really not small!
"Yanting, what have you heard?" Huang An looked at Li Yanting.
If anyone present knows the most about it, I’m afraid it’s the Li brothers.
Lun was born, Guangchang is the territory of the Li family, and if there is any trouble in the north, the Li family will know about it earlier than the Beidian Wanhu Mansion.
The Li family brothers are now Fang Wu Changsui, and they are the first people to follow Fang Fang.
Who can't see Fang Fang's trust and training in the Li brothers these days?
Li Yannian is a sophisticated and steady person. If you ask him, Li Yannian may not be able to answer, but Li Yanting is different.
Seeing this, Li Yanting looked at his brother, and after confirming that there was no problem, he smiled and said, "Landi's idea of a surprise attack across the sea on Xuantu was brought up by my husband early in the morning when he was deducing the development of the war with us. At that time, the Jurchens had not yet mobilized their troops, and it was about Last October!”
"What?"
"October?"
"Are you kidding me?"
In October last year, before the winter break came, it was at best a guess that the Jurchens would go to war against Wu with the support of the Song people. At that time, they decided on this plan to drain the firepower. Are they still human?
Not that there is anything difficult about the surprise cross-sea attack on Xuantu?
But how to judge when the war breaks out?
The Jurchens were ambitious, and their intention to get involved in Youzhou could be seen in more than ten years. In recent years, the second-generation sects had heard about what the Song and Ming people were doing behind the scenes.
Between the Wu Dynasty and the Jurchens, everyone chose to fight or not, but no one could tell when this battlefield took place.
As Wanyan Wenqi and Emperor Wanyan grow old, and Wanyan Kangtai is no longer in his prime, the probability of being beaten is increasing, but no one can tell the specific time.
In October last year, the Lianghuai riots did not appear, and the shadow of war did not appear. Fang Fang had already made a plan. Is this still a human being?
"You don't want to accept it, but the reality is like this. Apart from the riots in the Huaihe River and the Ming Dynasty taking action in advance, the war that happened now was all what Mr. expected last year. Otherwise, why would you, Nian Run, be unable to retreat and delay the war until August? !" Li Yanting sneered.
