Chapter 471: A Workaround
As a result, Zhao Feng just finished speaking. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Tian Feng knelt on his knees and bowed: "This matter is inappropriate, absolutely inappropriate!" β
"Please think twice!"
For Tian Feng's opposition.
Zhao Feng still made mental preparations.
It's just that I didn't expect Tian Feng to oppose it so strongly.
Zhao Feng picked up Tian Feng with both hands: "Let's get up first." β
"It's not a foregone conclusion."
"It's just a matter of discussion."
"Tell me first, why is it absolutely inappropriate?"
Tian Feng could still discuss after hearing this, so he stood up: "Whether it is from the courtesy or the law, it is said." β
"None of this is going to work."
"It's a foundation-shaking approach."
"Otherwise, what else do you need to do with etiquette and law?"
Zhao Feng shook his head: "Change the law, change the law." β
"The first thing to change is the Fa!"
"Removing the 'Fa', we are talking about 'rites.'"
"The image of a soldier symbolizes the highest majesty of the imperial court internally and the highest majesty of the Han Dynasty externally!"
"This is the highest 'courtesy'."
"Besides, I just said that when I was wearing military armor and carrying out military orders, I was allowed not to kneel."
"It's still business as usual."
"It's not as serious as you think!"
Tian Feng shook his head: "The lord does this." β
"Have you ever thought about the opinion of the literati?"
"The political intention of passing on in this way is to emphasize force over literature!"
"But to govern the country, you still have to rely on literature!"
"The purpose of martial arts is just to stop fighting."
"If the lord offends all the literati, let's not talk about the future for the time being."
"This matter of recruiting talents from all walks of life is estimated to be hanging."
"And since ancient times, whether it is a change of dynasty or a foreign relative's interference in politics, it has all been caused by military disasters."
"If the status of a soldier is higher than that of a civilian, then the military rank will be higher than that of a civilian, and military disasters will only become more frequent in the future."
"Otherwise, why did the imperial court set up the post of general, but the general was not always placed?"
"I'm afraid that there are too many military leaders, and it is easy to cause military disasters!"
"Don't talk about it from afar, let's talk about the general He Jin, and talk about the Taishi Dong Zhuo."
"One relied on military power and set up a prince's argument, and the other was even more excessive, so there is no need to say more."
"It's a shame for the big man."
Zhao Feng pondered for a moment: "Changing the law is to take your time." β
"There must have been something that didn't make sense in the beginning."
"But we can continue to change the law!"
"For example, military attachΓ©s are higher than civilian officials."
"We can set some other conditions to make the civilian and military attaches equal."
"For example, if you establish an academy, you can graduate from the academy."
"You can also skip the prostration."
"In this way, both civil and military are exempted from kneeling and bowing, and it will be flattened."
Tian Feng was speechless for a while, and muttered: "Does the lord have any special opinions on the bow ceremony?" β
"How do I feel, the lord is deliberately bowing to the court."
"Before the pre-Qin period, scholars and princes ruled the world together."
"At that time, the scholars were indeed on an equal footing with the kings, and there was no need to bow down."
"But this is the prerogative of the scholars!"
"Since Qin Shi Huang ruled the world, this privilege has been abolished."
"The Han inherited the Qin system, and naturally it was abolished."
Then he looked at Zhao Feng carefully: "The lord should not want to restore the Zhao Kingdom after the Zhao royal family, right?" β
Said here.
Tian Feng sighed lightly: "Take the merger of states as the place to start a business." β
"Then bring Dai County, Zhongshan Kingdom, Julu County, Zhao Kingdom and other places under his rule."
"These counties just happen to belong to the land of Xianzhao."
"Just wait for the situation to be more chaotic."
"The lord can go one step further and become the king of Zhao!"
"Could it be that the lord is really the queen of the Zhao royal family?"
This time it was Zhao Feng's turn to be speechless.
I didn't expect Tian Feng's brain to be so big.
It's all associated with the messy aspect.
sighed: "This doesn't seem to be the point." β
"Am I the first Zhao royal family, is it useful?"
"It's been hundreds of years."
"I'm just telling others that I'm the queen of the Zhao family."
"No, I'm originally the queen of the Zhao family."
"Not really."
"I mean, even if I tell others that I'm the first Zhao royal family, what can I do?"
"Is there anyone who is loyal to the royal family of Xianzhao?"
Tian Feng pondered for a long time: "It's still useful." β
"Just run it well."
"It's still very good for the lord to be king in the future."
Zhao Feng stopped: "Emperor Gaozu has issued an edict. β
"A different surname is not a king."
"Otherwise, the world will be in the same baht."
"It's still very early to be crowned king, so let's get down to business."
Tian Feng pondered for a moment: "I think this matter still needs to be considered in the long run." β
"We'll talk about it later!"
Zhao Feng sighed: "Brother Yuan Hao, do you know why I want to improve the status of a soldier?" β
Without waiting for Tian Feng to answer, Zhao Feng said directly: "Brother Yuan Hao, you should know best." β
"How did our army of more than 50,000 come here?"
"From the bandits who surrendered at the beginning, and then to the soldiers who surrendered Zhang Chun anyway."
"Including the last more than 15,000 Changshan soldiers, who were also defeated by Li Gao and Wang Ping, they knelt on the ground and begged to surrender!"
"It can be said that among our 50,000 troops, at least more than 20,000 troops have come by kneeling and surrendering."
"Now that these soldiers can surrender to us on their knees."
"In the future, if we encounter an unfavorable situation in the war, these soldiers can naturally surrender to others on their knees!"
"And in a war, the number of people killed in battle is less than one-third of the number of surrenderers."
"If these soldiers, who are three times as many as killed in battle, have been fighting to the death."
"Who can say what the battle will be?"
"Maybe we can turn defeat into victory!"
Tian Feng pondered for a long time: "The lord said this, and there is indeed a certain amount of truth. β
"As soon as they are defeated, the soldiers surrender to the enemy."
"This will only increase the disparity between the enemy's forces and our forces."
"And we're on a foothold now, and we can't afford a defeat."
"Once defeated, the number of soldiers lost will be unknown."
"Not to mention the recovery of other counties, I'm afraid that Taiyuan County or Changshan County will not be preserved."
"But if we really want to change the law like this, we can't predict the consequences at all!"
"The lord should think twice."
Zhao Feng looked at Tian Feng and still disagreed.
Pacing back and forth in the chamber.
Suddenly slapped his forehead: "There is!" β
"Since it's not suitable for the whole army."
"Then let's start with my personal guards!"
"The identity of the pro-guard is originally higher than that of ordinary soldiers."
"And secretly, as a soldier of the Pro-Guard Army, he is also a superior existence."
"In this regard, we are just changing from darkness to light, and others should not have any opinions."
The Janissaries resemble the Praetorian Guards of the Imperial Palace.
Except for Zhao Feng, there is no difference in terms of food and salary.
In the other princes, the salary was higher than that of the ordinary soldiers.
