Chapter 186 The war has subsided
He curled his lips disdainfully and said: "There is no combat effectiveness at all, so ignore it.
It is decreed that officials from all over the country are not allowed to submit memorials to oppose this matter. If they have the time and energy, they Have the people's livelihood in the territory been managed well?
Everyone knows that they are doing useless things. "
With the imperial edict, those officials of third grade and above also shut up.
But of course the discussions in various places will not stop just like that, they are still agitated.
Zhu Houzhao didn't care at all and let them talk.
As long as they don't break the law, let them talk.
Nothing can be stopped anyway.
As for the court, of course there are many people who have opinions, but after nearly two years, no one has stood up to oppose it.
The new social studies and county studies in Shanxi were successfully implemented.
On September 10th, hundreds of thousands of children entered social education.
On September 15th, the first examination to enter the county school began.
The content is mainly based on patriotic classics, arithmetic, and history taught in sociology, and it is not too difficult.
The total number of passers is more than 3,000, distributed among schools in various counties.
Zhu Houzhao was very happy when he found out.
The teaching thing is finally on the right track.
On September 20, after long preparations, the four major colleges of the Imperial College also began to officially recruit students.
There is an endless stream of people taking part in the assessment.
No matter what, this is the capital, Beizhili, and the place where the imperial power is strongest. More and more people are willing to believe in the court and Emperor Shengwu in the past two years.
The assessment content of the four major colleges is to initially select talented students. Zhu Houzhao even went to see it with his own eyes and felt that it was quite good.
By the beginning of October, the number of students in the four major colleges has been fully recruited, including the medical school with the largest number of students.
From the social studies and county schools in Shanxi to the Imperial College, a preliminary education system has been established.
The rest is to slowly grow and spread throughout the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Houzhao also knows that this takes time.
In early October, Zhu Houzhao personally went to the Military Academy.
Because the first batch of officially trained military instructors will finally graduate successfully.
On April 10 this year, in the military imperial examination, 3,000 people were selected for military civilian positions.
Then came the three-month recruit training for them, which ended at the end of July.
In three months, 1,200 people were selected again and trained as military instructors.
The original plan was for one month, but later it was increased to two months.
Until now in early October, I have finally graduated successfully.
On the high platform, Zhu Hou looked after the 1,200 people below, feeling pleased in his heart.
More than five months ago, most of the weak and weak scholars had changed their appearance.
It adds an obvious military atmosphere. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are now a soldier.
"You are very good, beyond my expectation. Everyone has persisted and turned from a useless and weak scholar into a qualified Ming soldier."
Zhu Houzhao gave it with satisfaction. Everyone is sure.
Suddenly, most of the people below looked slightly excited.
After three months of recruit training, plus two months of unique training, they have become one of the most steadfast admirers of Emperor Shengwu.
“Soon, you will go to the various armies and become a glorious and missionary instructor.
On my behalf, you will care for the soldiers at the lowest level, teach them how to read and write, and teach them patriotism.
I don’t ask much from you. I only have one request: to sincerely treat every soldier at the bottom as my own child and brother.
Tell me, can you do it? "Zhu Houzhao shouted loudly.
"Yes! able! able! ”
Twelve hundred people shouted in unison, and the emotions of excitement, excitement and reverence rolled like waves.
"Okay, I believe in you.
Go, I will always watch you." Zhu Houzhao waved his hand.
Twelve hundred people began to disperse in an orderly manner with some reluctance.
"Lao Gu, you did a good job. When I saw their energy, I knew that they were all qualified soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.
The ability as an instructor should not be Bad." Zhu Houzhao said to Gu Xichao with satisfaction.
There are 1,800 military civilians and 1,200 military instructors, especially the latter, who can be said to have been taught by Gu Xichao.
The original one month period was also extended to two months. It was Gu Xichao's decision. Zhu Houzhao gave him enough trust and agreed to it all.
For now, Zhu Houzhao is very satisfied with the rewards he has received.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured that these instructors will definitely go deep into the army, establish good relationships with the soldiers, and firmly control every army for Your Majesty." Gu Xichao said confidently.
After several months of hard work, he has gained a deeper and deeper understanding of the position of instructor, who will have extremely strong influence and control over the army.
The training period was extended from one month to two months. The most important thing was the loyalty of the instructor, who could only be His Majesty.
He spent the extra month brainwashing.
"Remember, you cannot hinder the commander from directing the war. Instructors must not control the military. If the military commander wants to use military power, he must use some means, and the instructor must not hinder it." Zhu Houzhao warned. . "I understand that I will definitely keep a close eye on the military instructors from various places." Gu Xichao said solemnly.
Zhu Houzhao nodded, feeling reassured about Gu Xichao's work.
"Your Majesty, the position of instructor is of great importance. I think it might be a good idea to recall all the existing instructors and instructors in each army to the military academy and train them again.
I know that Your Majesty is not worried. But this is just in case, if something happens, the lower-level soldiers will be the ones who suffer." Gu Xichao took the opportunity to say.
This is what he has wanted to do most in the past two months.
Having personally trained 1,200 instructors, he is not very worried about the existing instructors and instructors in each army.
I don’t trust his quality, let alone my loyalty to His Majesty.
Zhu Houzhao thought for a while, and Gu Xichao's last words moved him.
He is not afraid of anyone who has different intentions and is confident enough to suppress everything.
But something went wrong, and the victims were innocent soldiers.
"Well, there is no big war now. You can recall the existing instructors and instructors in each army for training. It is still you who will do this.
In addition, In the next few years, there will be a military assessment every year to train civilians in the military, and you must be prepared." Zhu Houzhao agreed, trusting.
"I understand." Gu Xichao said solemnly.
He was not surprised by this.
Your Majesty will never be satisfied with nine new armies. There are just not enough qualified army commanders now.
Civilian jobs in the military must be prepared in advance.
Not to mention that after Gu Xichao returned, he immediately started busy recalling instructors and instructors from various armies. Zhu Houzhao was then attracted by the war situation in the Sui Kingdom.
With the world's attention focused on him, Yang Guang, who returned with his army, finally defeated Yang Xuangan at all costs.
Yang Xuangan originally wanted to capture Luoyang, the eastern capital of the Sui Kingdom, and use Luoyang as his base to confront Yang Guang.
What’s more important is that, in Luoyang, people everywhere who have different intentions will never be able to bear it any longer.
Then the Sui Kingdom will collapse.
But he underestimated the strength of the Sui State, underestimated the difficulty of attacking Luoyang, underestimated Yang Guang, and underestimated himself.
He attacked Luoyang for nearly a month but failed to capture Luoyang.
Yang Guang quickly returned to the army and wanted to kill Yang Xuangan at all costs.
Yang Xuangan barely resisted for a month and was defeated.
The two great masters of the Sui State, headed by Yang Lin, were almost desperate to keep Yang Xuangan.
Yang Xuangan was killed on the fifth day of October.
For a time, the power of the Sui Kingdom increased a little, suppressing those who were ready to move.
After killing Yang Xuangan, Yang Guang did not stop and once again personally led an army of 500,000 to the north.
As the Sui army moved northward, Meng Yuan, who was defeating the Turks and retreating one after another, had to gradually stop his offensive.
Because they also have to consider a problem.
What should they do if they destroy the Turks, or if the Sui army attacks when they are fighting fiercely with the Turks?
Although this possibility is not too high.
After all, they all know that Yang Guang can still control an army of 500,000 people heading north at this time because the army has always been under his control and has never dispersed.
Also because of the power of Yang Xuangan who had just been killed.
But if you want to go out to fight again, it is very difficult in all aspects.
But the problem is that Yang Guang is not a normal person. Who knows if he will go crazy again and really go out of his way?
Now that Yang Guang personally proposed an army of 500,000 people to march north, it was obviously to scare the Mongolian Yuan, and it meant that everyone would be destroyed.
Who can be sure what Yang Guang will do?
Kublai Khan and Badu cannot be determined.
It is also uncertain whether they, who must have suffered considerable losses after destroying the Turks and cannot replenish them in a short period of time, can withstand the attack of hundreds of thousands of Sui's founding elites?
After ten days of such a stalemate, Kublai Khan and Batu withdrew their troops.
When this news came out, most of the countries in the world breathed a sigh of relief.
The war ended when the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty withdrew its troops.
No more worries about being pulled into the water for no reason.
For a while, many people praised Yang Guang for doing these steps very well.
The troops were quickly withdrawn, quickly defeated Yang Xuangan, and decisively raised troops to go north to threaten the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty to withdraw their troops.
The high-level leaders of Ming Dynasty have changed their minds.
Yang Guang still has some abilities.
"Yang Guang is indeed capable, as can be seen from his decisive withdrawal of troops, quick killing of Yang Xuangan, and raising troops to the north.
These few steps can even be said to have given The Sui Kingdom survived a few times, and the influence of the failure of the second personal expedition was greatly weakened, which would not cause the Sui Kingdom to collapse completely.
But this was only temporary. The Sui Kingdom was now in trouble, and the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty returned. Many people in the Sui Kingdom would not give him another chance
The fall of the Sui Kingdom was only a matter of time. "Gu Xichao concluded in front of Zhu Houzhao and other senior officials.
Liu Jian and others also nodded in agreement.
"But after all, the Sui Kingdom was only twenty or thirty years old. , Yang Guang's second personal conscription did not suffer too much loss of troops. Many of the elite and veterans who founded the country still survived, and they could still maintain it for some years.
It will take time for those in the Sui Kingdom to completely corrode the foundation of the Sui Kingdom. "Liu Jian said.
