Chapter 437 Don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients

After Jia Xu became an official in the court, he basically worked silently, rarely spoke, and rarely attended banquets. He looked like a workaholic and was also very low-key.

Cao Cao was very satisfied with this personality. At least no one could collude with her, which would be detrimental to His Majesty. However, when she really wanted her to do things, there was no way to keep her silent!

"Lord, since there is a lack of conditions, then we must create conditions!" Jia Xu knew that he could not keep silent when he saw Cao Cao asking. In fact, she had been thinking about it just now. The first reaction of these two words was also feasible, and she even instinctively thought that this was a major military reform. The problem was that there was only these two words, and there was too much news and needed to be thought about. Fundamentally, it needed to be made up!

"Talk about it specifically, Fengxiao, what needs to be supplemented, please say!" Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia. This guy must have thought of something. The problem is that there are too many people here, and she dare not say it. It is another concept.

"Yes... everyone was discussing..." Guo Jia had to stand up, "The convenient part of the legion system is flexibility, and it can support each other among several legions, and guide the goals of one to two, or even three.

The disadvantages are also obvious. Collaboration between local prefects and officers may lead to a situation of separatist rule... At the same time, the supply of local troops is directly restricted by local finance and cannot fully act...

So he proposed to separate military and political systems, and to complete the military funds and money and food independently. If the military and political systems are separated at the same time, the local prefect and the governor will no longer hold military positions, the army will not involve politics, and officials will not involve military personnel. In this way, the power of the legion system will be fully exerted, and the problem is also obvious... First of all, the lord must choose one among Sikong and General Cheqi..."

Yes, this is the key. Since military and political separation is needed, officials from all over the country will no longer be able to hold the position of general in the future, and naturally they will not have the power to recruit troops and expand their troops. The first thing to be affected is Cao Cao!

Cao Cao didn't say anything, Sikong was actually really idle. After all, there are more expenses for military expenditures and people's livelihood now, and there is not much expense in water conservancy, construction, etc. She is mainly responsible for the power of the General of the Cheqi and Cavalry. The Sikong Office is actually better than the General of the Cheqi and Cavalry.

"Which bastard has suggested it will be punished!" Le Jin jumped up directly.

"Indeed, I have bad intentions!" Cao Chun also agreed. This proposal was obviously targeting Cao Cao.

"From the perspective of the lord... there is indeed a problem..." Cheng Yu said, "But from the perspective of the country, the separation of military and political affairs is an inevitable result. From the Yellow Turban Rebellion to the current chaos, the prefect and governor have not named a general. I remember that someone once encouraged the late emperor to restore the state and pastoral system, but it was not implemented in the end."

This is also a place in this world that has not followed the historical process. Liu Xie could escape for five years, and Liu Hong did not agree to restore the state and pastoral system. However, Yizhou was to let Liu Yan serve as the governor of the state.

"Indeed, if the Han Dynasty wants to stabilize, the separation of military and political affairs is actually feasible!" Chen Qun agreed. He didn't say anything or objected just now. In fact, everyone saw that this proposal was not good for Cao Cao. Of course, some people may not see it.

"As for the current situation of the court, a certain order must be restored, so the separation of military and political affairs is a good thing in the long run, and it can also make the Lord fight seriously and no longer be troubled by the government office." Guo Jia added.

"At the same time, the separation of military and political affairs is also for the service of the legion system. The lord is in the middle to dispatch and other legion commanders attack according to the orders. Only in this way can the greatest effect be achieved and the world can be settled sooner!" Jia Xu agreed with this view.

"But equally, the separation of military and political affairs will also lead to unclear military expenditures and local governments cannot supervise them. At the same time, it may also allow the commander of the army to turn the army into his own private army..." Gu Yong reminded.

"So there must be a supervisor, such as the military supervisor!" Guo Jia suggested, "Restoring the military supervisor system, you can take action first and report at critical moments. At the same time, supervise the transfer of military expenses and food supplies, and report it in a timely manner."

"The rebellion of the Ten Constellations has only been so many years, and the risk of launching eunuchs is too high!" Fa Zheng directly denied this proposal.

"No, no, no, let's change our opinion!" Chen Qun thought for a while, "As long as the military supervisor is only responsible for supervision and not responsible for commanding the troops to fight, wouldn't it be better if he interferes in military and political affairs at will, the commander of the army can take it down first, and then submit a memorandum to verify it, and then kill it directly!"

"How about going further?" Cheng Yu thought for a while, "recruiting a large number of scholars Ping Ming filled the army, at least one per song, supervising and reporting layer by layer."

"Don't waste it, by the way, let these scholars teach the soldiers the patriotic thoughts of Zong Jun. In this way, even if the commander of the army wants to be independent, how many people can he take away? I guess he has not moved yet and has been taken down by the officers below." Cao Pi replied, yes, her identity is not only the president of the newspaper, but also the general's office of the chariot and cavalry.

The reason why Cao Cao came to the meeting was because he hoped that he could think of ways in other aspects, such as public opinion. Of course, he also had some meanings, and wanted Cao Pi to see it.

"How could I have this idea?" Cao Cao asked once. The key point was that Cao Pi's suggestions were very constructive.

"In the past, it was mainly thought that the reason why a general was able to lead an army to rebel was that the soldiers were under his command for a long time, and after several major wars, the number of veterans was decreasing, and the number of new recruits was constantly replenishing.

The fewer veterans, the less new recruits knew about this army, and no one said that everyone thought they were going to listen to the general's order, but as a result, the general could lead them to rebel together with the general's order.

On the other hand, if the court sent people to promote to them who their soldiers were, where did their military expenses come from, and who gave them the food they ate, then no matter how stupid the soldiers below were, they would not rebel when the general above raised his arms and shouted! The problem of private troops would be largely curbed!" Cao Pi saw his mother's encouraging eyes and immediately expressed his thoughts.

"So how about going further?" Gu Yong thought for a while, "By the way, let these scholars care more about the situation of the soldiers below, talk to them, and even teach them to read. This will not only make the soldiers feel more belonging, but may be able to train one or two civilian generals to come out!"

"Oh, just like Li Xin?" Fa Zheng immediately remembered a person. Legend has it that Li Xin was a civilian in Longxi. He followed the army to fight and accumulated military achievements step by step. He was the ancestor of the Li family in Longxi.

"Maybe? What many people lack is just an opportunity?" Cao Pi replied.

What more people are considering is something else. If a large number of such civilian generals appear, the proportion of children of aristocratic families will decrease, and even civilian generals may unite to form a force, so that they can compete with the children of aristocratic families. At the same time, it is not so easy for most of their descendants to become officials based on their own advantages.

There are pros and cons of this matter, and many people remain silent, but Cao Cao knew that she was a superior and considered more, so he knew that this could be implemented. So he raised his head and asked, "Is there any other good suggestions?"
