¡°Your Majesty¡¯s move is brilliant, it¡¯s really brilliant!¡±
The ministers were silent, no one dared to stand up and object at this time.
Liu Jian, the chief minister of the cabinet, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
By carefully looking at the origins of the whole incident, you can immediately clearly see Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s layout.
First, the Tatars went south. Emperor Hongzhi was determined to fight the Tatars. He changed his previous passive defense policy and took the initiative to fight the Tatars in the wild.
If he wins, this is naturally a good thing. His reputation as Emperor Hongzhi will be at its peak and his own prestige will be established.
If the battle is lost, Emperor Hongzhi can easily find an excuse to severely find out the problems of the Ming army, and then go on a killing spree like now. The ministers will be frightened by the killings, and naturally they can take it back. military power.
There are really too many problems in the Ming Dynasty¡¯s army. This is not just because of the civilian control of military power. It is the combination of many aspects that led to everything now.
The reason Emperor Hongzhi found was also very good, that is, the current Ming army has no combat effectiveness at all, and can no longer shoulder the responsibility of defending the country. It has come to a time when it must be restructured.
Originally, there was nothing wrong with this restructuring. The key is that the restructuring was just an excuse. The real purpose was to return military power to the emperor. From then on, the Ministry of War no longer held military power, but was only responsible for some military-related matters. Military power returned to the emperor again. In the hands of the emperor.
"What do you think, dear friends?"
"Everyone can talk and speak freely."
Seeing that everyone was silent, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but smile and asked again.
¡°I think it¡¯s inappropriate~¡±
At this time, a strong-headed censor stood up and said very righteously.
"Oh, what does Dong Aiqing think is wrong?"
Emperor Hongzhi looked at the censor and asked lightly.
"This military system is an ancestral system and the foundation of the country. How can it be easily reformed?"
"Moreover, this military power has always been vested in the Ministry of War. It is an ancestral system to control military affairs with civil servants. This prevents military generals from usurping the throne and seizing power. Once the military system is changed, I am afraid that the country will be shaken and the country will change hands."
"Your Majesty, the military system cannot be changed!"
Dong Yushi said heartbrokenly.
There are two core points in his words. One is that the current military system is an ancestral system. It is passed down from the ancestors and cannot be easily changed. The second is that the Ministry of War cannot change the power. The tradition of civil and military control cannot be changed, otherwise military generals will appear. Usurping the throne and seizing power, shaking the country.
"Your Majesty, what Duke Dong said is reasonable. The military system cannot be changed. Please think again, Your Majesty."
Apparently there was more than one dissatisfied person, and some ministers stood up to express their opposition.
As soon as someone started, in the main hall, people stood up one after another to express their opposition. Military power is really too important. Once it is returned to the emperor's hands, it means that in the future, ministers like them will have to restrict the imperial power if they want to. Difficult.
Since ancient times, political power has come from the barrel of a gun. Those who hold military power have the strongest backbone. When the emperor has military power, those who are his ministers will not have a good life.
Emperor Hongzhi looked coldly at the ministers who jumped out one by one, but he had already remembered them all in his heart.
After thinking for a while, Emperor Hongzhi looked at the British Duke Zhang Mao.
When Zhang Mao saw the look in Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s eyes, he immediately understood what to do. This change in the military system was a good thing for the group of generals and nobles like them.
With this military power returned to the hands of the emperor, it will naturally be transferred to the hands of these noble generals. The era of civilian control of the military will be gone forever.
And Zhang Mao is now also a big capitalist, and now he has slowly tasted the benefits of foreign trade. He also knows that in foreign trade, capitalists like them urgently need a strong Ming Dynasty to support them.
This powerful Ming Dynasty is not only strong in national power, but more importantly, strong in force. It can sweep away all obstacles that prevent capitalists like them from making a fortune.
To give a very simple example, the merchant ships heading to the Japanese country of Korea are now affected and harassed by pirates. In the past, they could go there once a month, but because of the influence of pirates, everyone has become cautious, fearful, and a little uncomfortable. Dare to go to sea.
It stands to reason that the navy of the Ming Dynasty should be dispatched to destroy the Japanese pirates and pirates along the way to facilitate the exchange of merchant ships, but can the navy of the Ming Dynasty destroy the Japanese pirates and pirates?
&nEmperor Zhi changed the military system. Once the military system was changed, the power would be in the hands of Emperor Hongzhi, and it would be impossible to return it to the hands of the civil service group in the future.
It is impossible for the Ming Dynasty to have a second Tumubao Incident, nor a second Yu Qian. They have no chance to seize military power from the emperor.
"I also feel that it is time for the military system to be changed. Our Ming Dynasty has become increasingly troubled by border problems in recent years, and the people on the border have suffered greatly. Our Ming Dynasty has millions of troops, but it has no way to defeat the Tatars in the small grassland. , the root of all this still lies in the military system."
Li Dongyang is also a smart and understanding person. He has already seen that Emperor Hongzhi is looking for this opportunity to take back his military power, so after Liu Jian expressed his stance, he was also smart to stand up and express his support for Emperor Hongzhi.
Xie Qian looked at Liu Jian and Li Dongyang and understood immediately, so he also stood up to express his support.
"Your Majesty, I object. I want to impeach Liu Jian, the first minister of the cabinet, and Li Dongyang and Xie Qian of the cabinet. As important ministers of the cabinet, they have done nothing and have nothing to do."
At this time, Dong Yushi stood up again, and like a mad dog, he bit the three elders in the cabinet, and directly put the hat of corpse-position vegetarian meal on the three of them.
Using the small to control the big is also a characteristic of Ming Dynasty politics. The censor's rank is very low, but he can directly impeach important cabinet ministers, and they do not need any evidence at all to impeach, they only need to open their mouths.
"Your Majesty, the military system is an ancestral system and the foundation of the country. It cannot be shaken easily. This military department controls the troops and controls the military with culture. This is also for the future of the Ming Dynasty and to prevent military generals from usurping power and seizing the throne."
After impeaching the three cabinet ministers, he said sadly that in his opinion, once the military system is changed, the country of Ming Dynasty will be shaken, and at the same time, it is very likely that there will be military generals like Zhao Kuangyin in yellow robes in the future.
Of course, these are all excuses. The real reason is that they are afraid that the civil service group will lose military power. Emperor Hongzhi can take back military power today, and he can take back more power tomorrow.
"Similarly, once the military system is reformed, the generals and nobles group that was finally suppressed will inevitably resurrect. From now on, the Ming Dynasty will no longer have the final say with civil servants like them.
This is the fundamental reason for the opposition of these civil servant groups. In the final analysis, it is the interest class that determines their respective positions.
"Ancestral system?"
Emperor Hongzhi looked at Dong Yushi coldly, then sneered and said: "I am not very good at studying history. Please tell me, dear, what was the military system like during the Taizu and Chengzu periods? "
"Your Majesty, the military system during the Taizu and Chengzu periods is no different than it is now. The current military system was set by His Majesty Taizu and is the foundation of the Ming Dynasty for generations to come."
When Yushi Dong heard this, he thought about it and said.
"No difference?"
Emperor Hongzhi smiled, finally seeing the shamelessness of these civil servant groups.
You actually told me that it is no different from me. Our ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang needs the consent of you civil servants to dispatch troops and generals?
Hearing Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s rhetorical question and looking at Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s cold eyes, Dong Yushi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and then he remembered that thousands of people had lost their heads during this period.
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt a chill on my neck, and then suddenly it felt like a deflating balloon.
Everyone is afraid of death, and so is he.
As for leaving a name in history and dying by admonition, it also depends on the situation. When encountering a good-tempered emperor, such as the former Emperor Hongzhi, everyone is happy to spit on Emperor Hongzhi.
However, the current Emperor Hongzhi has made it clear that he wants to take back military power. If he fights with Emperor Hongzhi, his death may be in vain. Emperor Hongzhi has already killed thousands of people, and he probably won't care about killing one more of himself. .
After thinking about this clearly, look at the important ministers in the court. Everyone is very smart like Liu Jian and Li Dongyang. Even if there are a thousand people who disagree or do not support in their hearts, at least they will not disagree with themselves. Even the stupid ones stand up to oppose, and even the smart ones express support.
Dong Yushi understood immediately, and then sighed helplessly. After all, this Ming Dynasty still belongs to their old Zhu family.
The entire hall was silent. Many smart people expressed their opinions and expressed their support for Emperor Hongzhi's restructuring. They felt that Emperor Hongzhi was far-sighted and far-sighted.
As for the stubborn fool, he was powerless in the face of such a general trend. There was no way to stop Emperor Hongzhi from taking back military power.
"Since everyone expresses support, then this matter will be settled. You three, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, and Zhang Mao, just come up with a restructuring plan."
Emperor Hongzhi was very satisfied with this result. Although some people objected, most of them were smart people, so in the end he left the restructuring to Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, and Zhang Mao, which could be regarded as saving some face for the civil servant group. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)The customized plan comes out. "
