Chapter 585: Deng Han, Deng Yu is in charge of the army

The first governor of the newly established Shandong Road and Xuzhou Road was decided under Deng Sheng's strength, and the prefect of Yingchuan Yu Yunwen was promoted to the governor of Shandong Road, and the prefect of Danyang Huo Guang was promoted to the governor of Xuzhou Road.

"You are the governor of Shandong Road and Xuzhou Road have been decided, so let's discuss the issue of garrison. Now that our border of Great Deng has been pushed to the front line of the Yellow River, the world is ten, and our Great Deng is the only one who is six. The army of the twenty guards may not be able to match. Expansion of the army is an imperative, but I don't know what you think of the specific expansion of the army?" Deng Sheng said.

When everyone heard this, they all thought about it. It was not enough to just talk about expanding the army. There were many interests mixed in the middle. There were a general, four generals and military advisors of the first guard, and there were thousands of generals in Deng Guo. No matter how many positions were, it was impossible to satisfy everyone. Who could go and who couldn't go, it also needed to be carefully considered.

"Yue Qing, you are the general of the General General's Office. You know the most about the military affairs. I wonder what you think?" Deng Sheng saw that everyone didn't say anything. He directly pointed Yue Fei's name. As the general of the General General's Office, Yue Fei was responsible for this matter.

Yue Fei stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, now our territory of Great Deng is unprecedentedly vast. The previous 20 guards and 800,000 elite troops are not enough. I believe that at least 200,000 troops in the four guards and increase our troops to one million will be able to form an overwhelming advantage over Qin and Zhao. When you fight against Qin and Zhao in the future, you will not be embarrassed to have no soldiers available."

Deng State has always implemented a policy of streamlining military and streamlining administration. Except when Deng Sheng ascended the throne, he was faced with the threat of Wei, Han, Wu, Jing and other countries, and then he drew one in ten. However, after his rise, Deng State has always controlled the number of domestic troops, one to reduce the financial burden, and the other is a newly incorporated place. The people did not have a strong sense of belonging to Deng State. Forcibly recruiting may be detrimental to the war, so there was no large-scale increase in troops.

Now the Deng Kingdom has occupied 600, and its domestic population has exceeded 30 million. The 800,000 troops are no longer enough to suppress the world. It is only barely enough to increase troops to one million.

However, it is not a good thing for Deng State to increase too many troops. After all, there are too many new recruits, which is a great burden on money and food. Although Deng State won the Battle of the Central Plains, the consumption of money and food is also huge. It will take some time for a new land to be transformed into strength. It is the most ideal to increase 200,000 troops.

Deng Sheng nodded and said, "Okay, since that's the case, then we will increase the troops by 200,000. As for the troops, before the war in the Central Plains began, in order to support the war in the Central Plains at any time, I ordered the General Governor's Office to collect 200,000 strong from various places in Wancheng, and the Yulin Guards are responsible for training. These strong people are the most suitable than ordinary people. Then divide the 200,000 into four guards. Among the four guards, we need to select four generals, sixteen generals and four military advisors from the army. The candidates for the Central Governor's Office also need to be selected well. Today we will decide these four generals first. I wonder what suggestions do the General Governor's Office have?"

This time, the General Governor's Office came to Ganyang Palace to discuss the affairs of the three giants, General Yue Fei, General Yang Yanzhao, and General Chang Yuchun of the Cavalry.

All three of them were carefully considering the candidates. After a long time, Yang Yanzhao stepped out and said, "Report to Your Majesty, all the generals in the army are good generals of the country, with qualifications and ability to serve as generals of the guards. However, in this battle in the Central Plains, I also discovered two good talents. In terms of ability, they are not a general in the army. I think they are competent."

"Oh? I wonder who Yang Qing recommended?" Deng Sheng was also very interested. Yang Yanzhao has always been self-protection and rarely praised others so much. The person who can make Yang Yanzhao recommend him must have the talent to maintain peace and stability.

Yang Yanzhao said: "When you come back to your Majesty, you are not someone else, but His Highness King Jin and His Highness King Wei. During the Battle of Central Plains, the two highness performed very well and were deeply loved by the soldiers in the army. In the battle of Pei County, they led the side troops north and advanced and retreated with evidence, showing the style of a general. I think the two highnesses are more than enough to serve as generals of the First Guard, so please give your Majesty a clear guide!"

As soon as Yang Yanzhao said this, everyone present was shocked. They did not expect that Yang Yanzhao would actually recommend Deng Sheng’s two sons Deng Han and Deng Yu. Indeed, Deng Sheng’s sons are all the best people, no matter where they are placed. If they are just a general in the army and have such ability, there will be no problem to be the general of the First Guard, but they are Deng Sheng’s sons, that would be different.

Now that the Deng State's reserve has been established, Deng Hao's position as crown prince can be said to be very stable. Unless there is any major change, the other princes will not have any chance. However, if Deng Han and Deng Yu have the power of military power, it will easily pose a threat to Deng Hao's position as crown prince. Moreover, Deng State establishes the country with military force and values ​​military merits. If Deng Han and Deng Yu make great contributions to the war between Qin and Zhao in the future, it will be difficult for the soldiers in the army to guarantee that they will not support them, which is very unfavorable to the inheritance of Deng State.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Deng Hao. Sure enough, Deng Hao's face became extremely ugly. Deng Sheng had five sons in his life. Under the guidance of Deng Sheng and the concubines in the harem, the brothers also had a good relationship. Deng Hao, as his elder brother, also cared for his younger brothers very much and took the initiative to take responsibility for anything. The younger brothers also respected him very much.

However, this is limited to the premise that these younger brothers do not threaten their status. Although Deng Han and Deng Yu were outstanding in the past, they did not have much room to display. In addition, their mother tribe did not have much power, so Deng Hao did not have much thoughts about them. As for Deng Zun, whom Deng Sheng and Cai Yan loved the most, because he was not old, Deng Hao felt that it was not very threatening for the time being. Moreover, Deng Hao had been the prince for so many years, and his country's regent in recent years, he had already formed his own power in the court.

However, once Deng Han and Deng Yu become generals of the First Guard, they will inevitably not have other ideas. Perhaps no problem will occur now. After all, Deng Sheng is still there. As long as Deng Sheng is still there, Deng Han and Deng Yu will not dare to make any abnormal moves. But if Deng Sheng is gone, Deng Hao will not dare to imagine what the two men with heavy troops will do. However, Deng Hao cannot object, but Deng Hao cannot object. If he objected, wouldn't he tell Deng Sheng that he was afraid of Deng Han and Deng Yu? This will definitely cause Deng Sheng to be unhappy, so Deng Hao dare not and cannot object.

But Deng Hao could think of this level, and those ministers would definitely think that once Deng Han and Deng Yu were in charge of the army, it would not be possible for these ministers to see that Deng Han and Deng Yu came from the military and if they ascended the throne in the future, they would definitely rely more on the generals in the army. This is unacceptable to the civil service group.

So Cui Hao was the first to go out to oppose and said, "Your Majesty, you must not. Your Highness, King Jin and King Wei are still young and have low prestige in the army. Although they have performed well in the battle of the Central Plains, it is difficult to convince the people in the army. Besides, the prince has never been in charge of the army. Please think twice."

"Please think twice!" All the civil officials agreed.

When Yang Yanzhao saw that his proposal was unanimously opposed by the civil servant group, he was suddenly a little panicked. Yang Yanzhao was just a very pure soldier and did not have much thought. He recommended Deng Han and Deng Yuyu, but he just thought that these two were capable of making, and their abilities were not inferior to those of the generals of the various guards. He did not consider so much. Now seeing so many people oppose, he quickly turned his attention to Yue Fei and Chang Yuchun, hoping that they could speak for themselves.

Yue Fei and Chang Yuchun were also frowning. There were natural conflicts between civil officials and military generals, which have existed for thousands of years. Although Deng is working together to unify the world, it does not mean that there is no conflict, but it has not been put on the stage yet. Now the civil officials group unanimously opposes Yang Yanzhao, so they naturally have to help.

"Everyone, the matters in the army will be decided by Your Majesty and the General General's Office. You are civil officials. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to interfere in the affairs in the army like this?" Yue Fei was still restrained, but Chang Yuchun couldn't help it. Now Yang Yanzhao only recommended it, but it was not decided, and he was collectively opposed by the civil servant group. If they were allowed to succeed easily, wouldn't they die on the necks of these generals in the future?

"The words of Changcheqiqi are bad. Whether it is military or political affairs, it is all about my great Deng. As a minister of Da Deng, we are the one who eats the king's salary and bears the king's worries. If there is anything wrong, whether it is government affairs or military affairs, we should also propose it. Why should there be a distinction between civil and military affairs? Changcheqiqiqiqiqiqiqiqi is like this, does it mean that the affairs in the military have nothing to do with our civil officials?" The civil officials were not showing any weakness, and only saw Zhang Bin go out and said directly.

"You..." Chang Yuchun didn't expect Zhang Bin to be so exaggerated. If it were a battle on the battlefield, Chang Yuchun looked down on Zhang Bin, but when it comes to verbal fucking, ten Chang Yuchun tied together was not the same opponent as Zhang Bin.

"Zhang Xiangyan is so serious!" At this time, Yue Fei, the first person in the army, came out and said: "Yang Piqi and Chang Cheqi both thought about the sake of the Great Deng. They recommended the two Your Highnesses because they deserved the position of General of the Guard and were not selfish. Why should you be aggressive? As for whether the two Your Highnesses are competent, your Majesty will make a decision. Why should you interfere with the affairs?"

"Okay, don't argue!" At this time, Deng Sheng stopped the noise and asked Deng Hao beside him: "Hao'er, Yang Qing recommends your two younger brothers, I wonder what you think?"

Deng Hao said: "When I go back to my father, my second and third brothers are both very good at being a man and have great achievements in military affairs. Teacher Huangfu and Murong also highly praised their two younger brothers during their lifetime, so my son-in-law believes that it is not impossible for me to be the general of the First Guard."

Deng Hao also expressed what he thought. Although he didn't want to see Deng Han and Deng Yu become generals of the First Guard, he had to admit Deng Han and Deng Yu's military achievements. To be honest, if Deng Han and Deng Yu were not his own younger brothers, the military command would threaten his position, and Deng Hao would also like to see it.

Deng Sheng could see that Deng Hao was also insincere. Yes, as the prince and the future king of a country, how could Deng Hao tolerate existences that threaten his status? How could Deng Hao, as Deng Sheng's son, be qualified to inherit Deng Sheng's position? Although there are some distinctions between legitimate and illegitimate children, don't forget that Deng Sheng is not the legitimate son or eldest son. The throne of Deng State is different from Deng Sheng's hands?

However, Deng Sheng had his own ideas. Deng Han and Deng Yu were implanted into the potential of historical masters by Deng Sheng. If they could not be given a space to display, these potentials would never be transformed into strength. Moreover, the brothers Deng Han and Deng Yu both hoped to show their ambitions in the army. If their identities could not be realized, they would probably feel resentful in the future, and Deng Sheng did not want them to be abandoned.

So after thinking about it, he finally followed Yang Yanzhao's advice and said: "The new four guards are named Qianniuwei, Anguowei, Feipengwei, and Taishanwei. King Deng Han of Jin will be appointed as General Qianniuwei, and King Deng Yu of Wei will be appointed as General Anguowei!"

"Your Majesty, think twice. This is a way to cause chaos, absolutely not!" Cui Hao and others were shocked when they heard this. Unexpectedly, Deng Sheng really let Deng Han and Deng Yu become the general of the guard. They felt very bad and quickly spoke to dissuade him. Even Deng Hao, who was beside him, had a very unnatural expression.

But Deng Sheng had decided, so he could not change it so easily. So he said, "Don't say anything, my idea has been decided. As for the candidates for Feipeng Guard and Taishan Guard, Hao'er, let you and the General Governor's Office decide together."

Deng Sheng also knew that this was a bit sorry for Deng Hao, so he simply handed over the general candidates of Feipengwei and Taishanwei to Deng Hao, which was also a disguised compensation for Deng Hao, and it also made Deng Hao not be inconvenient to face his brothers in the future.

"Here!" Deng Hao also knew that this was Deng Sheng's compensation to him, but since there was no way to change Deng Sheng's idea, then he would choose the general candidates of Feipeng Guard and Taishan Guard. It was obvious that Deng Sheng handed over Feipeng Guard and Taishan Guard to himself. As long as he could hold Feipeng Guard and Taishan Guard tightly in his hands, there would be no way to face Deng Han and the others holding heavy troops in the future.
