In accordance with Li Hu's request, the Privy Council began to formulate attack strategies for the Northern Expedition and began to adjust its troops to gather more troops on the Hebei battlefield and ensure the victory of the decisive battle of the Northern Expedition.

Li Hu invited Fan Zhichang and Changsun Kangning, and asked them to immediately transport food, grass and supplies to the Central Plains and stockpile military supplies to ensure the needs of the Northern Expedition.

When Fan Zhichang and Changsun Kangning heard that Li Hu was going to fight the Northern Expedition, they almost spoke out in unison. The situation in various places is not good now, and the court has not come up with a solution yet. Li Hu actually chose this time to fight the Northern Expedition. It is incredible.

"You can calm down and think about it." Li Hu smiled, "If you figure it out, let's discuss it again."

Li Hu left, Wu Yan walked in. Wu Yan roughly explained Li Hu's ideas to the two ministers. Fan Zhichang and Changsun Kangning were shocked. Although Wu Yan did not clearly say that Li Hu was going to ascend the throne, as long as he knew Li Hu's ideas, he would know what Li Hu's ultimate goal was without thinking. Li Hu could no longer wait. He was eager to ascend the throne and become emperor, eager to complete the unification of Middle-earth, and eager to revive Middle-earth. So he took great risks and launched the Northern Expedition while launching a storm to fight the old bureaucracy. He wanted to fight a decisive battle on two different battlefields at the same time. This was a decisive battle that he could not afford to lose.

When they saw Li Hu again, Fan Zhichang and Changsun Kangning had changed their attitude. The two made a decision to win these two decisive battles that were related to life and death at all costs.

"The scope of the storm has not yet been expanded to all regions. After the New Year, this storm will affect the entire Middle Earth. That is the best time for us to launch the Northern Expedition." Li Hu briefly explained his idea, "In the next few months, the main energy of the imperial court will be to calm this storm, but before we achieve our goal, we cannot end this storm. So whether it is the court or the governments in various places, we cannot count on it for the time being, we can only rely on you, especially the power of the United Chamber of Commerce to raise and transport military supplies for the Northern Expedition."

"Please rest assured, even if I am broken into pieces, I will help the general to complete the great cause of the Northern Expedition." Changsun Kangning patted his chest and made a promise.

"Master General, after this storm hits the whole country, the old bureaucrats will suffer unprecedented damage, and many local forces will disappear. Therefore, the court must do a good job in replacing the old bureaucrats." Fan Zhichang mentioned a realistic problem. "We need more officials."

"I have considered that some of the major military and political officials in various places were transferred from the Hu Lie Army, some were transferred from the prefectures and counties in the northwest, the North and Hedong, and the main officials were recruited from the Taixue, the Imperial College, the Imperial College, and the various local colleges, and schools." Li Hu said, "There is one principle among them, that is, institutions and officials must be streamlined to the greatest extent."

Speaking of this, Li Hu pointed at Fan Zhichang and asked: "Have your regulations prepared the specific plan for streamlining the relevant institutions and officials?"

"We have several plans, but..." Fan Zhichang said with a wry smile, "I never dreamed that the Grand Marshal would attack the old bureaucrats in this way. The Grand Marshal's move was clean and thorough, and the several plans of the Registration Department seemed too conservative at present and must be re-printed."

"Just choose the best plan." Li Hu shook his hand and said, "Middle Earth is too big and there are too many officials. Although this move is effective, we must seek truth from facts and it is impossible to completely solve all old bureaucrats at once. This time we strive to replace all the main military and political chiefs in various places, first control the local military, political and financial power, and then launch a second and third storm until all these old bureaucrats are replaced so that we can implement and implement the reform plan at a faster speed."

Fan Zhichang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Li Hu was indeed extraordinary. He was very clear-headed and knew that the old bureaucrats had huge power, especially in the local area, and they were even more complicated. This storm could cause them severe damage, but it was absolutely impossible to completely destroy them. Without four or five years and without the impact of continuous storms, it would be difficult to root them out of Middle Earth.

"Master, the storm is getting stronger and stronger. What methods can we use to calm this unprecedented storm in the end?" Changsun Kangning then asked the most difficult question.

Li Hu laughed, "Do you still want to ask me this? Don't you know?"

Of course, Changsun Kangning knew that Li Hu's direct purpose of launching this storm was to monetize the salary of the government and officials. In order to implement this reform strategy, the primary task was to privatize the official fields and sell the official fields. The privatization of the official fields is a complex process, and the interests involved are too great. The official fields are like a piece of fat meat, and everyone wants to eat a bite, including the lowest-level farmers. If this matter is not done well, Li Hu's reform strategy will not only suffer a heavy blow, but the prestige of Li Hu and the Huli people will also decline sharply.

"The implementation of the privatization of official fields takes time, but the storm is too big to sweep the whole country. I am worried that it will not be able to assume this heavy responsibility and may even exacerbate the storm."

The privatization of Guantian involves all interests. If it is not handled properly, it will detonate a huge "thunderclap". The consequences are unimaginable, which is also an important reason why Changsun Kangning is very afraid of. This matter should be taken slowly according to Changsun Kangning's original idea. Step by step, but Li Hu suddenly launched this storm, forcing Guantian privatization to be implemented immediately, otherwise the storm will not be quelled.

There are many reasons for the corruption of the old bureaucrats in the Song Dynasty, but official fields are undoubtedly the biggest breeding ground for corruption. Now the people in the world are all staring at official fields. As long as the court privatizes official fields, it can basically calm the anger in the hearts of the people and calm this terrible storm. This involves several important issues: one is the unity of money, the second is the sufficient money supply, and the third is the monetization of the government's expenses and official salaries. If these three problems are solved, then official fields can be privatized and sold. But the problem is that the above three points are not available now, and it is difficult to privatize official fields.

Li Hu simplified a complicated matter, but things in this world have their own operating rules. If they violate the operating rules, they will definitely fail. Changsun Kangning could not see any hope of success at all. He could no longer help and could only turn to Li Hu, hoping that Li Hu would give him a solution.

"The victory of the Northern Expedition." Li Hu smiled, "The victory of the Northern Expedition was won. The prestige of the Tiger Lie Army increased unprecedentedly, and at this time the Tiger Lie people became the hope of the people."

New bureaucrats represented by the Tiger and Fierce people will go to various places after the victory of the Northern Expedition, serve as military and political chiefs in various places, eliminate old bureaucrats in various places, punish a group of corrupt officials who were extremely guilty, and then win the support of the people, and take out a series of reform measures to appease the people. The most important measure is the privatization of official fields.

It does take time to privatize official fields. The transaction of official fields must take care of the interests of all classes, but as long as it starts, the people will see hope. The storm will slowly calm down.

"There are several steps to privatize the official field, but the implementation of each step means a decrease in the income of the government office and officials. How to resolve this contradiction?"

According to Changsun Kangning's plan, the privatization of official fields must be carried out after the unified currency, sufficient money supply, and the monetization of official salaries. Now it is reversed, and the privatization of official fields begins first, which has caused the interests of the bureaucratic class to be severely damaged, and the difficulty of reform has increased exponentially.

"The expenses of government agencies and the salaries of local officials are not all from official fields. The reason why official fields have become the target of the storm is that the income of government agencies has become a treasury for corruption among bureaucratic classes. Therefore, privatization of government fields will not lead to the inability of officials to handle official duties at the central and local levels, and officials cannot even be full." Li Hu said, "In addition, the simplification and simultaneous progress of government agencies and officials at all levels can greatly reduce expenses."

Speaking of this, Li Hu pointed to Fan Zhichang and Changsun Kangning, "I have another suggestion. Your Regulations Department should consider adjusting the division of local administrative regions. Now the local administrative regions are divided into three poles, roads, prefectures, and countys. I think the states and counties of each route can be merged, two states can be merged into one state, or three states can be changed into two states. The same is true for counties. This can reduce local government agencies and officials and further save the expenses of the court. In other aspects, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."

Fan Zhichang and Changsun Kangning complained secretly.

Li Hu said it lightly that we must resolutely promote the privatization of official fields and implement them immediately, and even require institutions and officials to streamline and simultaneously. However, whether it is privatization of official fields or streamlining institutions and officials, it involves all aspects of interests. It is very difficult to implement and takes time. What is missing at present is time.

"According to your method, every change measure is taken step by step. Then with the unification of Sino-Turkish forces, the competition for interests among all parties becomes more and more fierce, and the possibility of success is getting smaller and smaller." Li Hu waved his arm vigorously and said coldly, "Why did Wang Jinggong's reform fail? Why did Cai Jing's new policy go against his original intention? These bloody lessons tell us a fact that if you want to succeed in the reform, you have to take heavy and ruthless measures. Cai Jing had a Yuanyou Party case that year, which led to the smooth implementation of the new policy. The same is true for us. If we want to achieve the success of the reform and revitalize Sino-Turkish, we must first sweep the old bureaucratic forces. After breaking, we must establish without breaking. This storm is to destroy the old bureaucratic forces and destroy the old system, and as an opportunity to establish a new new system and a new dynasty."

Fan Zhichang and Changsun Kangning were impressed by Li Hu's heroic spirit. At this point, the storm had already begun and the Northern Expedition was about to begin. Li Hu had no way back, and the others could only follow him to the end without hesitation. Success or failure was the first to take action.

"I will immediately formulate a specific implementation plan for the privatization of official fields." Changsun Kangning no longer hesitated and made a decisive decision.

"Before the end of the year, you must come up with a practical plan." Li Hu instructed, "In this plan, you must take care of the interests of the people and make as many ordinary people as possible to own a piece of land."
