After the generals dispersed.
Yang Wengzi and Li Xin left side by side.
After walking for a while, Yang Wengzi looked around and suddenly asked: "General Li Xin, do you feel that the ideas mentioned by His Highness are a little too eager, and even some are just for the sake of solving them, but in fact they are on a parallel path." A rough road?”
Li Xin stopped.
He glanced at Yang Wengzi and said coldly: "General Yang, be careful what you say."
"His Highness has his own plans for doing this. How can we allow us to speculate secretly?"
Yang Wengzi hurriedly said: "The general does not dare to guess His Highness's thoughts at will. It is just that the General has been in the army for some time and has some understanding of some situations in the court. These ideas of His Highness seem to be just to cope with this incident. , and there is no follow-up. Although this method can relieve temporary worries, it may cause problems over time."
"And it's a big deal."
"It was with this in mind that I asked more questions."
Yang Wengzi expressed his true thoughts.
It was not because he was surprised.
But Fusu's approach was a bit exhausting. In order to cope with the promise given by Hu Hai last time, he hurriedly fulfilled it and spread it in a big way. At first glance, it only gave people a very exciting feeling. But if you really think about it carefully, you will immediately notice that these policies are unsustainable.
How could Da Qin have so many official positions?
There are as many as 800,000 soldiers in the South China Sea and the Northern Territory. For such a large number of troops, according to the resettlement method given by Fusu, the number of official positions and the amount of food and education provided by the court will be huge. This has obviously exceeded the boundaries of the court. .
He could see this truth, but he didn't believe that Li Xin couldn't see it.
Li Xin frowned.
He looked deeply at Yang Wengzi and said in a deep voice: "I don't know exactly what His Highness is thinking, but from what I know about Your Highness, His Highness is not so hasty and perfunctory. Looking at the whole thing, you Don’t you feel that all this seems to be under the control of His Highness?”
Hear the words.
Yang Wengzi was stunned.
He was naturally aware of this.
But he still felt extremely uneasy in his heart.
See this.
Li Xin hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "Don't look at our Highness with the same eyes as in the past. Although I haven't been in contact with His Highness for a long time, during the time I returned to Xianyang, I heard a lot about His Highness. In this situation, His Highness is a thoughtful and considerate person, and will not make hasty moves easily, let alone such small things, but we are superficial and do not see deeply, so That’s why there was a misunderstanding.”
"I don't know the full picture, so I can't comment."
Li Xin expressed his true feelings.
Yang Wengzi was thoughtful.
He knew that the reason why Li Xin told him this was because Li Xin was close to the Yang family. When Li Xin was able to stand out from the army, Yang Duanhe helped a lot, so Li Xin could be so calm.
He cupped his hands and said, "Perhaps I am indeed overly concerned."
"It's just that the general is very knowledgeable. I can't imagine how His Highness will solve it in the future. This is an army of 800,000 people."
Yang Wengzi sighed softly.
Li Xin shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"But when the Guan Shan Hai policy came out, how many people could think of the follow-up?"
"Since Your Highness can consider things in such detail, it is impossible for him to stop eating due to choking, let alone to damage the long-term trust of the soldiers for the sake of temporary gain."
"As a general, I just do what I'm told."
"Everything will become clear in the future."
Li Xin didn't want to say more about this.
He really didn't know how to defend it or what angle to use to defend it.
Yang Wengzi also nodded and said: "This is the only way. However, after your highness's actions, even the non-commissioned officers in the army will actively retire. This will have a great impact on the existing order in the army, and may even completely change the army." status quo."
Li Xin smiled and said, "This is not a bad thing."
"And His Highness is right. Old Qin has paid too much for the world and deserves the respect and respect he deserves."
"To be fair."
"The method proposed by His Highness is very insightful and easy to convince. The military will be at peace and the world will be at peace."
"Perhaps Daqin will really settle down completely because of His Highness."
Yang Wengzi nodded.
The two didn't talk much and then left.
However, what Fusu said to the sergeants spread throughout the army not long after, which not only made people excited, but also made many generals feel a little uneasy.
Because almost all non-commissioned officers have applied for discharge.
And they all submitted their applications.
The application form details military experience.
This made many generals tremble with fear.
Only then did they realize Fusu's intentions.
They were all shocked by Fusu's heroic words, but they ignored the most important thing. Fusu asked the noncommissioned officer to apply for retirement and suggested that the noncommissioned officer elaborate on the military journey. In order to allow himself to retire from the army, the noncommissioned officer committed suicide. It is to write down every detail of the past military experience.
Through this method, Fusu had the most direct feeling about the real situation of the army.
He also learned the reason why sergeants in the army were promoted.
What frightened them even more was that the application form written by the non-commissioned officer was not handed over to the military generals, but was passed directly to Fusu, which made many generals a little confused for a while.
Linchen.
Zhao Tuo sat on the high seat.
Listening to Zhao Wei talking about the current situation in the army, his brows furrowed even more.
Zhao Wei said with an uneasy face: "Father, the situation in the army is not right now. These non-commissioned officers are all bewitched by His Highness Fusu. In order to get a place to retire, they racked their brains and wrote about many things in the past. There are thousands of people. Although these people have low status, they have been in the army for a long time. If Fusu discovers the misconduct among them, it may cause a lot of trouble."
Zhao Tuo rubbed his forehead.
How could he not notice it?
But this is the brilliance of Fusu.
He had told them clearly a few days ago, but at the same time, Fusu also told the non-commissioned officers present that the number of retired soldiers was limited, and if he wanted to win a discharge qualification, he was destined to do what he wanted. The most important reference is the application form submitted by each non-commissioned officer.
It's just that most of them were distracted by Fusu's other words.
But they ignored that this was the real murder plan.
a long time.
Zhao Tuocai said solemnly: "We have all underestimated your Highness. His Highness is really very sophisticated in his calculations. He found out the true strength of the army without a single blow, and also found out the situation of the non-commissioned officers and lieutenant generals. Now His Highness is afraid that Now that I have a thorough understanding of the real situation in the military, even if I want to stop it now, I probably won’t be able to do it.”
"We have all been played by His Highness."
"Father, are we just going to watch helplessly like this?" Zhao Wei became a little anxious and said: "His Royal Highness Fusu is so aggressive this time. He is originally targeting my father. When he understands the situation in the army, he may directly target him. If my father takes action, then all of his close associates who have worked so hard to manage the business will probably be discharged from the army, and then won’t there be no more people available to my father’s subordinates?”
"Why is His Highness so insidious?"
Zhao Wei couldn't help but cursed angrily.
Hear the words.
Zhao Tuo looked unhappy.
He glared at Zhao Wei fiercely and scolded: "Don't slander His Highness here."
"Your Highness has your own reasons for doing this."
"And you really think I can stop it by taking action? Under the current system of Da Qin, the method given by His Highness is the most attractive to the non-commissioned officers at the moment. The reason why these non-commissioned officers had resentment before was because the imperial court said nothing. I believe it, but now that I have been given the opportunity to retire from the army, and it is for life, how many people in the world can resist the temptation?"
"Soldiers are the land of life and death!"
"If it weren't for my relationship, you would have died countless times in the South China Sea over the years. Now is it your turn to talk so shamelessly?"
"You have been too arrogant these years and have become a little forgetful."
"The South China Sea belongs to Great Qin."
"The Qin army is also your Majesty's army."
"Both the generals and non-commissioned officers in the army are all His Majesty's ministers. They are not my personal soldiers, Zhao Tuo. I know this very well in my heart, and these people also know it. Do you think these non-commissioned officers really have no brains? Look. Don’t you understand the situation?”
"They can see clearly."
"And I can see it more clearly than anyone else."
"But what's the use?"
“Not all non-commissioned officers in the military have promotions unknown.”
"As long as someone makes the move, others can't stop it even if they want to. Even in order to win the qualification, they will only accumulate past experiences more and more fiercely."
"This is a conspiracy."
“It’s the human heart that plots.”
"Nowadays, most of those who dare to write down their past experiences have meritorious service and have actual achievements. These people are of good character. At the same time, those who have not written it down or even have no intention of submitting the application form. It suddenly became dazzling.”
"These are two cups of poison."
"It's just a matter of which drink these sergeants choose."
"And His Highness is probably still watching us generals secretly, wanting to see which of us can't keep calm, and who will contact the sergeants privately. Once His Highness knows about it, these people will directly become the targets of His Highness's follow-up treatment. Point."
Zhao Tuo closed his eyes slightly.
In fact, he had already seen through everything.
But he was powerless to change all of this.
This is the army of Da Qin.
The outcome was determined from the start.
Zhao Wei's expression changed again and again.
He said uneasily: "But if we continue to let it go, wouldn't everything be ruined?"
His eyes were full of unwillingness.
Hear the words.
Zhao Tuo showed deep disappointment.
He was completely disappointed with Zhao Wei.
Zhao Wei is just a man with great ambitions and little talent. He only has personal interests in his eyes and cannot clearly see the situation or the situation. Now people's hearts are moving towards Fusu. Not only the non-commissioned officers are towards Fusu, but the lower-level soldiers are also towards Fusu. Su was the one everyone expected, and in this case, he made more and more mistakes.
In such a clear situation, Zhao Wei still didn't know what to say.
He has been blinded by ambition.
But if a person has ambition but no matching ability, it is destined to be a disaster.
Zhao Tuo said coldly: "Your Highness went south this time in order to weaken the status of generals in the army, not only mine, but also other generals. The generals of Da Qin only have the right to lead troops, not to control them. This It is a boundary drawn by the imperial court, and anyone who dares to stop or obstruct it will only die."
Zhao Tuo's eyes were cold.
He will do nothing but obey.
Zhao Wei looked at Zhao Tuo's cold eyes with a rare look of fear.
He can feel it.
My father became very dissatisfied with himself.
But he was unwilling to do so. They clearly had great power in the South China Sea, but in less than half a year, everything collapsed. There was no room for struggle, and they could only watch the tall buildings collapse.
Zhao Tuo ignored Zhao Mei.
It is even less likely that he will make a fool of himself because of Zhao Wei.
If you retreat now, you can save your family, but if you dare to do the following, you are really seeking death.
He indeed loved Zhao Wei very much.
But there is a bottom line.
He will not risk the survival of his family.
the other side.
Fusu was relatively calm.
There was a mountain of paperwork piled up in front of him.
These are the applications submitted by military sergeants in the past few days.
Fusu looked very carefully.
After each reading, I will make some notes.
After a few days of dealing with it, he had a thorough understanding of the situation in the army and a general understanding of the situation in the army.
He chuckled lightly and said lightly: "Nowadays, the non-commissioned officers in the army probably think that the benefits I gave are short-lived and will never happen again after this time. That's why they are so proactive in submitting letters, trying to make themselves become The ultimate profit maker.”
"Mr. Ji is indeed right."
“The hustle and bustle of the world is all about profit coming and going.”
"Even if they were very close to the generals in the past and were even regarded as confidants, when it came to their own more practical interests, they would still subconsciously choose to serve themselves."
"Profit is the root of everything."
"Once the benefits outweigh the proximity, most people will choose to pursue profits."
"But this is my purpose."
Fusu shook his head.
This time he mainly targeted the middle-level non-commissioned officers.
These people are the easiest to swing.
Through interests, relationships that could not be broken easily were broken, allowing him to easily change the status quo of the army.
During this period, he deliberately created an unsustainable effect of the policy. Firstly, he wanted to create a sense of urgency and make the non-commissioned officers more proactive. Secondly, he also wanted to minimize the impact as much as possible to avoid the matter from getting too big in the end. , resulting in too many variables.
Everything must be controlled within limits.
Fusu stood up from the table.
He has been here in Lingnan for some time.
It's time to leave too.
He knew very well that there were many people waiting for him in Lingling, and as for the matter in the South China Sea, it was time to move forward.
However, Zhao Tuo's calmness was still somewhat beyond Fusu's expectation. He originally thought that Zhao Tuo would do something secretly, but from beginning to end, Zhao Tuo behaved very honestly and never made any unnecessary moves, not even After asking too much, I was just preparing for the third expedition in the military camp.
Fusu Ning said: "Zhao Tuo."
"You are a smart man."
"You also know the current situation in the military very well, but there are some mistakes that cannot be made, whether intentional or unintentional."
"Wrong is wrong."
Fusu sneered.
With a wave of his sleeves, he asked the accompanying officials to carry the bamboo slips to the carriage, said a few words to the generals, and then set off towards Lingling.
Fusu's departure did not cause too many ripples in the army.
