Chapter 1,271 Late Night Victory

Su You pointed out that the military must have supervision, but it is from internal supervision, and there must also be external supervision.

The first thing that came to Zhao Xu's mind was the ancestral system of using civil society to control military affairs. He thought that Su You was trying to suppress military men and unify the military ministers to avoid suspicion.

But upon closer inspection, it was not the case. Su You pointed out that the Song Dynasty always used civility to control military affairs and wantonly suppressed military personnel. This was also unfair.

The documents and military laws of the past dynasties only stipulated how the sergeants should be punished after committing crimes, but they never stipulated what rights the sergeants should enjoy!

In other words, those who deprived sergeants of their normal rights were originally the ones who should be punished. However, because there was no law to protect the normal rights of sergeants, not only were these people not punished, but they were even more cruelly exploited.

But when the sergeants had no way to complain and resisted unbearably, those who should have been punished took military law as a weapon to suppress the weak.

Military law did not play a role in maintaining military discipline at this time, and often became an accomplice to the perpetrators!

And for the same reason, when these generals came before the civil officials, there were no laws to declare and protect their rights, and they were treated in the same way by the civil officials!

This is the biggest crux of the Song Dynasty's military incompetence.

The army is the minions of the country, and it must be institutionally ensured that it is healthy and sharp, instead of using deformed management methods to make it increasingly abscessed and weak.

Therefore, the Privy Council should formulate a set of codes that match the rights and obligations of military personnel to manage military personnel. This is the true way to control military force with culture, the original intention of our ancestors!

Based on this suggestion alone, Lu Gongzhu felt that he and Sun Gu were right in stalking Su You to take charge of Western affairs. This suggestion alone was enough to show that Su Mingrun had the talent of a minister!

But Zhao Xu was a little confused. From the emperor's intuition, he could feel that this was a big move and a big article, but if it was really done well, it would be no less than a reform by Wang Xianggong.

Only Cai Jing vaguely grasped the deep meaning behind this suggestion, and Su Mingrun, the talented Prime Minister.

The law clearly stipulates the obligations that scholars, farmers, industrialists and merchants should fulfill and the rights that they should enjoy and are protected by law. The meaning behind this sentence is that if they are deprived of their rights after they have conscientiously performed their obligations, then the deprivation

The person will be in an illegal position!

Even if he is an emperor, he is an emperor who has broken the law! He is also a perpetrator in the legal sense!

Cai Jing has never thought about rebellion. His greatest ambition is to participate in politics and become prime minister if he is lucky.

While Su Mingrun was desperately trying to consolidate the imperial power, he was also secretly digging a deep hole for the imperial power. As his ultimate goal was to obtain the power of the prime minister, he wisely decided to remain silent.

Anyway, judging from the memorial, there is nothing wrong with Su You's suggestions. He only put forward correct suggestions for improvement in response to some abnormal management methods in the current army, and did not involve other things, and it was his responsibility.

It should be said that protecting the rights of soldiers during wartime, so that they are not bullied by the powerful and attacked on unfounded charges, has practical benefits in ensuring the loyalty and combat effectiveness of the army, even more than merit and reward.

The benefits are even greater.

Once the merit rewards are distributed, there is no doubt whether they will reach the soldiers, and Su You's suggestion is the guarantee that these merit rewards will be obtained by the soldiers.

Zhao Xu felt that Su You's original intention of talking about his ancestors might be to put money on his ancestor's face. Even if his ancestor was a warrior, he would never think of coming to this level.

However, this kind of using culture to control military force is obviously much higher than the use of culture to control military force pursued by several emperors of the Song Dynasty. The intention and vision are much higher. If it succeeds in my own hands, does it mean that I...well... …

He felt his palms sweating slightly: "Mr. Lu, what do you think?"

Now Lu Gongzhu's mind is all about military affairs, and he thinks this is a good solution: "Western affairs are complicated and complicated, and military and political affairs are entangled. Duke Fu's proposal seems to be a good solution."

"Now that Zhong'e has won a great victory, the merit report will be sent soon. To ensure that all of His Majesty's rewards fall on the heads of the soldiers, and to effectively boost morale, Duke Fu's method is indeed necessary. .”

"But the matter is serious. Since Duke Fu has such a vision, why not first allow him to try out some measures based on the situation of the six routes? If it works, then go to the Privy Council for detailed discussion?"

Zhao Xu thought about it and said, "That's right, let's do this first."

Cai Jing suddenly said: "Then who will supervise?"

Zhao Xu was surprised: "Of course it will be supervised by the Sixth Route Capital Strategy Department."

Cai Jing cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the Duke's intention is not like this. He clearly stated in the article that the legislation is to protect the rights of soldiers and avoid infringement of soldiers' rights. He also clearly pointed out that those who exercise the power of supervision shall Not only from within the military, but also from outside the military."

Zhao Xu frowned: "Duke Fu is... putting himself under supervision?"

Lu Gongzhu took it for granted, and the problem was not difficult to solve: "Since it is to supervise and enforce the law, then internally, the military is responsible for picketing and supervising the army; externally, the six roads are responsible for punishing and promoting."

Zhao Xu nodded: "It should be so."

Wait until another page is turned: "Hey, isn't it written here by Mingrun?"

Mr. Lu didn't read the book very carefully just now. He took it and took a look. It was the fourth article, "Hedong, Shaanxi Road Transport Department and Tongjing Zhimajia, etc., in response to military needs, have allocated money and materials. They can do it themselves." Make plans and plans. When it comes to private leasing and other matters, it is necessary to ask for the price directly and not to follow the instructions directly. People should be kept in check at all times to ensure that they are quiet and do not cause harassment. If there is any mishandling, order to raise funds. For punishment, if you hear the reasons for promoting the secret secretary, you should discuss the matter and depose him. If he is promoted unconsciously, he will be guilty of the same crime."

"For example, if there is a law in the army, if there are those who bully the sergeants and hide their merits and reward them, we should follow the same example."

This also involves civil affairs.

When the Sixth Route Army was established, even if the military was directly in charge of grain and fodder, the people would definitely have to recruit and mobilize troops to coordinate with it.

Su You was asking Zhao Xu to issue an edict, granting the Sixth Circuit the power to raise the Criminal Division and the Changping Division to supervise the bureaucrats in the Transportation Division to prevent them from abusing their powers, enriching their own pockets, and causing public resentment.

At the same time, they also have the right to act alone against illegal crimes in the military.

Lu Gongzhu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "The Duke of Fu is so brilliant that he proposed legislation to supervise himself. He is quite like Zhao Yuedao..."

Zhao Xu nodded: "Sun Gong and Lu Gong, your insistence is right. Although Su Mingrun is meticulous, he is fair and selfless; although he is skillful, he is generous and loyal; although he is cunning and wise, he is polite; although he is worldly and understanding, he is polite and courteous. With perseverance, he is indeed the best person to preside over the overall situation."

After speaking, he said with a smile: "I'm afraid this is also the result of Mr. Zhang and Zhao's nurturing since childhood. By the way, how is Bachelor Zhao doing now?"

Lu Gong wrote: "When Zhao Yuedao was appointed as the magistrate of Hangzhou, he took up the post of Prince Shaobao. The imperial court showed sympathy to the elders. As was the case with the Han and Wei dynasties, it ordered his son Zhao Mi to raise Changpingcang in two Zhejiang provinces so that he could be taken care of in his old age. Listen. It is said that Zhao Si took him throughout the famous mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River, and wherever he went, the Wu people were proud of him."

Cai Jing said with a smile: "I heard that this gentleman retired to Sanqu, where he lived in the same place as the local people, just like ordinary people. He named his residence Gaozhai, and wrote a poem - Waist Pendant The gold has been withdrawn from hiding, and the news contained in it is also ordinary. People at that time wanted to know Mr. Gao Zhai, but he was Zhao Silang Acun."

Zhao Xu sighed with emotion: "Su Shi said that the wealth and honor of this man were not in his heart, and that his Qing Dynasty was not impressive. This is to say that he is the leader of the country and the father and teacher of the people. This is not Miao's reputation."

…

The next day, Zhao Xu went to the Zichen Palace to plant rice wine and received congratulations from all the officials.

Since the duty system was initiated by the Military Aircraft Department, and then the Privy Council followed up, and if nothing else, it was just such a hurried manner, Wang Gui was very disgusted.

The prime minister takes care of everything, and besides his official duties, he still has a lot of leisure time to recite poems and compose poems. That is called elegance and style.

Xie An of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was still playing chess leisurely when Fu Jian's 800,000 troops came to his doorstep, okay?!
