Chapter 332: Establishment of the Festival
In response to the rebellion of the party in the northwest, a number of important ministers were sent to Shaanxi Road to sit in the town. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Among them, the civil servants who led the troops, in order to show that they were in the military affairs there, implemented a special policy of exchanging their posts for military affairs. The basic principle is that among the attendant ministers, to be replaced by the system of observers, after the direct scholars change the degree of the festival, the cabinet bachelor and the palace scholar change the degree of the envoy.
Xu Ping's privy direct envoy is the head of all the straight bachelors, Lu Ci Bige bachelor, Zhao Zhen ordered to lean upwards when changing the military, and the official was promoted to the first rank of the Ministry of Rites, and finally reached the second of the six ministers. Xu Ping knew Qinzhou as the envoy of the army and navy, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, and the deputy envoy of Shaanxi Jingluo to pacify, and the deployment of soldiers and horses on Qinfeng Road, and the envoy on the edge of Qinfeng Road, presiding over the military administration of Qinfeng Road.
Xia Zhu exchanged the bachelor of Longtu Pavilion for the envoy of the Fengning Army, and the Yongxing Army was known to the Hubu Shangshu, and the Shaanxi Road Jinglu was pacified by the envoy, and the soldiers and horses of the Yongxing Army Lujing Yuan Road were deployed. Fan Yong's senior secretary changed the envoy of Zhenwu Army, and knew Yanzhou with the servant of the Ministry of Officials, and the deputy envoy of Shaanxi Road Jingluo to pacify, and the soldiers and horses of Huanqing Road of Yanyan Road were deployed, and at the same time, they also recruited envoys on the edge of the two roads.
The Fengning Army is the Zhengzhou Army, and Jing Yu has just been promoted in the early years. The army and navy are the military quota of Ruzhou, and after Xu Ping developed Jingxi Road, many military states were upgraded at one time the year before last, and Ruzhou was one of them. The two knots have just risen and belong to the small domain, and Xia Zhu and Xu Ping are very low in the knots.
For military generals, the establishment of the festival is the supreme glory, and they enjoy the same treatment as the ruler. Xu Ping also felt honored, he still remembered the words of Yue Fei that he had learned in his previous life, he built a festival at the age of thirty-two, which has been rare since ancient times. Even if the official festival is to be issued after the year, he is still thirty years old to build the festival, which can be said to be rare since ancient times.
Xia Zhu obviously didn't think so, and the first thing he did after taking over the appointment was to ask for a month's advance of Yulu to prepare for his belongings. Zhao Zhen was generous, and simply gave him an advance for half a year, but he could spend it first. Officials will probably not have to pay back their advances, especially if they take up a post in the border areas, as long as they make a little merit. In addition to worshipping the Hanlin bachelor who made the words, there is a lot of moisturizing pen, and those who have a lot of expenses at home may really lack money. However, Xia Zhu was not greedy for this money - although he was greedy for money - this time it was to express his dissatisfaction and did not want to go to Shaanxi Road. originally wanted to enter the government, but he was kicked to Shaanxi Road with his naked eyes, and he didn't know when he came back, Xia Zhu's heart was burning to death.
Fan Yong sent these three people to Shaanxi Road because he had been on Guangnan West Road for several years and had experience as a border commander. Xu Ping and Xia Zhu were the most talkative about the accident in the northwest, and they were both enthusiastic among the courtiers and seemed to know about military affairs. Xia Zhu knew that this was the result, and now he regretted his death, and he knew that he would not talk too much about fighting for the seat of the Privy Council.
Set up a banquet at home to entertain relatives and friends to celebrate, and wait for relatives and friends to disperse at night, but Lin Susuniang was a little unhappy.
Xu Ping was slightly drunk, and said with a smile: "Not to mention the establishment of the festival, I am now a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, among the six ministers, and the people who can be compared with the court are all veterans and important ministers." How do you look at you, I'm still a little unhappy. ”
Lin Suniang said: "You are a first-class jinshi, you are from the top list, how glorious!" A good civil official, how did he change his military position, but this official is a civil servant, and it is a bit nondescript to say it. Besides, if you gladly accept this official, you will inevitably be said to be a greedy and high-ranking man. Greed for money is not a good reputation! ”
Xu Ping laughed: "If it were other officials, there might still be people who said this." Our Xu family, who is one of the few rich and noble people in Beijing, says that I am greedy for money, is there still anyone in the capital who believes it? ”
"Having said that, it is always inevitable to be gossiped about. Is it bad to go to the Northwest and be a bachelor? ”
"The reason why the Holy One is like this must have his own reasons. When you go to the northwest to manage military affairs, what is it like to have no military career? The generals under him refused to accept it first. With a military position, the management of the army is justified. ”
Lin Suniang laughed out loud: "If you don't say that you want to take care of your generals, it's unreasonable to say that you want to take care of them!" Those generals in charge of the forbidden army, which one is not a festival envoy, and most of them are on your festival envoy. After getting there, the small officials are in charge of the big officials, which is not right! ”
Lin Suniang is right, military generals do not anticipate state affairs, and their political treatment is low, so they have to be bribed with money, and their economic treatment will go up. For the generals of the unified army, the policy of the imperial court has always been to respect them to a high position, and to treat them with kindness, and if they do not manage the army and the military generals to build festivals, the generals of the army will be more uniform, and most of them are big domains.
This time, the forbidden army in the capital will be transferred to the northwest, and it is initially decided that several generals will lead the troops. They are subordinate to the three commanders in terms of dispatch, but in terms of official position, they are above the commanders. In the past, when the official position was civilian, it was clearly distinguished, and it would not cause chaos, but now the border commander is half civil and half military, and it is inevitable that it will be embarrassing.
Xu Ping thought about it, shook his head, and still smiled: "These troubles are from Xia Longtu and Fan Senior Minister, I am alone there, and the forbidden troops who have been transferred are Sang Xiucai and Gao Daquan, and their officials are far away from me!" ”
Lin Suniang listened, sat down opposite Xu Ping and said solemnly: "My woman's family should not ask about your official affairs, but when you go to the northwest this time, your soldiers and horses are the original old department, and Gao Daquan was once employed by our family, will anyone gossip?" ”
"What are you gossiping? The border marshal is a military position, and it is not as strict as the various recusal laws of civilian officials, and the military position does not pay attention to those. Not to mention that it's just the old department, those generals often take their children with them when they go out, and they get it first if they have military merits. Leading troops to fight, the imperial court originally tried to let the border marshal lead the old department, the more intimate the better, and it is not the same thing as being a civilian. ”
The military generals not only did not evade the law, but also encouraged fathers, sons and brothers to be in the same army, the closer the better, and the people were familiar with each other. This is completely different from the requirements of Wenchen's position, Lin Suniang was taught by Xu Ping to pay attention to the influence from time to time, and she couldn't change it all of a sudden.
Even if there is no factor in changing the military system, when Xu Ping goes to the northwest to face the party, Zhao Zhen will transfer the original old department to him. Zhao Zhen does not mention that the courtiers will also make suggestions, and it is a common practice to use the old department for warfare, and the rules handed down in the late Tang Dynasty and the fifth dynasty.
Not only do the soldiers he bring use the old department as much as possible, but the border marshal's shogunate can also be self-reliant, as long as the imperial court appoints additional appointments.
It is precisely because of this that the marshals often have their own children in their positions. The most typical in history is Bingfei's father and son, Yue Yun's official position is to be in charge of Jiyi writing, which is one of the shogunates. Whether it is Cao Wei or Wang Deyong, they followed their elders when they first went to the battlefield, and this is how their earliest military exploits were obtained. The Northern Song Dynasty was prosperous, whether it was in the border area or in the capital, as long as the family style was passable, it was often several generations in the army, and there were many famous generals, and the reason was here. The so-called family history, just relying on the ears and eyes of the elders, how can the ears and faces be killed? It is still necessary to have practical experience, especially the practical difficulties of commanding troops. The children of the generals have this condition than ordinary people, and they lead troops under their elders at a young age.
Lin Suniang shook her head and stopped arguing with her husband, but she still couldn't be happy. At this time, the status of the generals is low, and the status is low, and the discipline of the generals in the eyes of the world is not very good. Literati talk about integrity, and this martial character is always a little strange in the eyes of people, especially with the example of Chen Yaozhi.
