The banquet didn't end until midnight.
Shao Xun controlled the amount of alcohol he drank and was just a little tipsy. He had something to discuss with Wang Yan later.
When he was led to a clean courtyard by a servant, he saw a beautiful figure, and his steps were immediately messy, and the person looked a lot drunk.
"Bang!" He took off his shoes with difficulty, and then sat down on the couch.
Wang Huifeng stood at the door and looked at him quietly. After a long time, when he saw that he accidentally knocked over the inkstone, Shi Shiran walked over and took away the yellow paper filled with writing on the case table.
Shao Xun took Wang Huifeng's hand.
Wang Huifeng trembled, feeling a little unhappy and tried to take his hand away.
"We have been fighting for several months, sleeping in the open air, and we are a big step closer to a bright future. Hui Feng, how long do you think it will take for the world to be at peace?" Shao Xun said with a big tongue.
Wang Huifeng stopped pumping his hands.
After taking Shangdang, Hanoi and the Xiongnu's soft belly were all exposed to the outside world. There is a huge gap in national power between the two countries. Maybe there will be peace soon?
If there is peace, maybe there won't be so many tragedies of people eating each other.
Helpless old people, weak women, ignorant children, they don't need to be someone else's sustenance.
When there is peace, there won't be so many thieves in the place.
Merchants can travel north and south, and students can travel mountains and rivers.
There are so many benefits to peace.
She looked at Shao Xun, sighed, and thought of giving him a reward.
After Shao Xun felt that the strength of his hand was gone, he gently hugged Wang Huifeng into his arms.
Wang Huifeng looked at him in surprise and didn't react for a moment.
Shao Xun's eyes seemed to have no focus, he only looked at Wang Huifeng and said: "You must always correct me, always correct me..."
"Sometimes I can't help but want to kill... There are too many greedy scholars, cruel barbarians, and students who can't be taught no matter how hard they teach!"
"The sergeants burned, killed and looted repeatedly. Sometimes...sometimes I thought about it. They abandoned their families and careers to fight for me. What do they want? You want to correct me..."
"The more people I kill, the more it doesn't matter. I can see the heads smiling at me. Zhang Fang must have walked here like this..."
Wang Huifeng just felt a sense of shame and anger in his heart, and when he heard these words, he immediately stopped struggling.
Shao Xun hugged her tightly, seemingly getting harder and harder.
She was at a loss, with all kinds of emotions intertwined in her mind.
The vows made in the past, the vague hints from his parents, the past with Mr. Liang, and even some things mentioned by his sister, made his mind almost explode and his emotions became turbulent.
"Bang!" Shao Xun let go and fell directly on the couch. He seemed to be too drunk and fell asleep.
Wang Huifeng breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, with the battle between heaven and man in his mind, he almost decided to be cruel, wake up Liang Gong, and then reject him with a cold face.
It was just right now, and she didn't need to take the initiative to break up. Although she didn't want to admit it, she still missed the tacit understanding between her and Mr. Liang.
She made suggestions and he readily accepted them.
When she started talking, he could guess the following words.
She was happy because she had done something for the people of the world.
Liang Gong's brows were furrowed tightly, as if there was still unsolvable sorrow in his sleep.
Wang Huifeng stretched out his hand and gently touched it with his slender jade fingers.
Mr. Liang's frown gradually faded away, and his face looked much better.
Wang Huifeng showed a slight smile and just looked at the person in front of him quietly.
You are so honest now.
Who would have thought that a warrior who could leap a matgo in front of tens of thousands of warriors would look like this when he calmed down?
Wang Huifeng sat on the couch, gently holding his chin, his eyes always falling on Shao Xun's face.
Shao Xun's tightly closed eyes occasionally trembled slightly.
I didn't master the posture when I fell down just now. After a long time, I felt a little uncomfortable. Just when I was thinking about whether I should adjust it, Wang Yan came.
"Hey, Mr. Liang is actually drunk?" Wang Yan asked in surprise.
"Did you drink a lot?" Wang Huifeng looked at his father and asked.
Wang Yan glanced at Shao Xun, then looked at the folds on his daughter's dress, and sighed: "I am so happy that I have won a great victory over my class teacher, and I will inevitably drink a few more drinks."
After speaking, he called the servant and asked him to make sobering soup immediately.
"The world is uncertain, and Mr. Liang is indispensable. Don't drink too much in the future." Wang Huifeng stood up, walked to Wang Yan, took a blanket, covered Shao Xun, and said.
Wang Yan was about to take a blanket to cover his legs, but when he saw this, he became angry and secretly said: "Quan Zhong, let's see how long you can keep pretending!"
"What were we talking about at the banquet just now?" Wang Huifeng sat naturally next to Shao Xun, smoothed his hair and asked.
Wang Yan quietly glanced at Shao Xun and said: "Most of them are for prisoners."
Wang Huifeng hummed, she was not very interested in these, because this was not what she was good at.
"Over there in Taiyuan, I have some old connections with my father. Your mother-in-law also has many relatives who are still alive." Wang Yan added: "I accepted Wen Taizhen to offer wine to the army for military consultation. Why do you think that Taizhen just married Wang's wife?
When I took my life, the Wen family of Taiyuan was not completely ruined. The Guo family also has many tribesmen who will help in the future."
Wang Huifeng was a little surprised. Her father was not such a talkative person before, but she didn't think too deeply about it. She just said: "In this way, Mr. Liang can relax. He is too tired and has to bear everything on his shoulders."
Wang Yan didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only hum. The daughter he raised with his own hands said that Quan Zhong was tired. Aren't you and I tired?
But then I thought about it, my daughter's words were more effective than ten of his words. Did that bitch Quanzhong hear it?
The maidservant quickly came over with sobering soup.
Wang Yan gestured.
Wang Huifeng lowered his head and called softly: "Mr. Liang."
Shao Xun was unmoved at first. It was not until he was pushed that he suddenly woke up and subconsciously touched his waist.
After a while, his whole body relaxed and he said awkwardly: "I was so drunk that I actually fell asleep."
Wang Yan coughed and lowered his head, not wanting to look at this guy.
"Ming Gong, wake up at the bar." Wang Huifeng advised.
Shao Xun glanced at her and said with a smile, "I listen to you."
After saying that, he picked up the bowl and drank slowly.
Wang Huifeng turned away, his ears a little red.
She felt that she had been cheated on more times that night than before combined.
But she was a little happy in her heart because he listened to her.
After drinking the sobering soup, the maid wiped the table and put the bowl away.
Wang Yan stood up, handed a stack of yellow paper to Shao Xun, and said: "According to Ming Gong's wishes, I roughly drew out the regulations."
Shao Xun nodded, took it and read it.
Wang Yan returned to his seat and said softly: "In the past ten years or so, the status of civil and military affairs has gradually changed, and many scholars are uneasy. Is Ming Gong really going to do such a big thing?"
Shao Xun read it roughly and said, "What do you think, Captain?"
Wang Yan still has some foresight. He has seen the current situation of civil and military reversal in the past ten years-in fact, more than 20 years ago, there were signs of it more than 20 years ago.
Few of the gentry are engaged in military positions, while more are civil servants. However, civilian officials may not be unable to control the army. In the gentry society, this is not a difficult task.
But in the past twenty years, as the country's situation has become increasingly disintegrated, the scholars have gradually lost control of military power, and the warriors have begun to slowly seize power.
Speaking of which, it is a bit similar to the situation in the Eastern Jin Dynasty in history. The Jingkou warrior group rose rapidly and gradually gained control of the military discourse. However, by mastering the army, you may not necessarily be able to occupy the dominant position in the country. In the end, the two sides fought for a long time, and Wen Da was always the leader.
Wu, until Liu Yu came out of nowhere and used his irrefutable military exploits to silence the scholars and forced them to surrender to him.
But surrender is surrender, and the strength of the noble family is still there.
Liu Yu wanted to win over them and let them serve his new dynasty, because it was impossible to govern such a large country without the cooperation of the noble families. Force could only conquer the world, but not rule it.
On the side of the nobles, they can't push Liu Yu too hard. What if someone breaks the pot and directly uses force to kill you? In the end, it's nothing more than a compromise.
This is actually what Wang Yan mentioned. He just said: "Ming Gong must pay attention to the 'harmony of civil and military affairs'. Ming Gong relied on military men to make his fortune, but what will happen if the military men rise too fast and develop to the extreme?"
"It will become Weibo's military electoral system, with Ya soldiers electing governors." Shao Xun secretly complained in his heart.
Of course, this is nonsense. The social atmosphere does not change that fast, and there is no social foundation. The soft and hard conditions do not match, so it will not reach that point.
"The existence of the noble clan has advantages and disadvantages." Wang Yan continued: "The affairs of the world are more important than moderation, and more importantly, checks and balances. When the noble clan is there, it can check and balance the warriors, and when the warriors are there, it can check and balance the noble clan."
"The Taiwei's words are truly insightful." Shao Xun praised.
When playing politics, you must pay attention to balance.
Even if you completely eradicate the gentry and expel the gentry from the political circle, the groups representing the interests of all parties in your new political group must have a good balance, otherwise big things will happen.
Nowadays, the power of the gentry is overwhelming, which has been a chronic problem since the late Han Dynasty, so something went wrong. Introducing new martial arts groups to balance the power of the gentry will produce a catfish effect, making the metabolism of the gentry faster and less lifeless, which is beneficial to the country as a whole.
Maybe after the warriors rise, they will marry into the gentry, but after the marriage, they will have a system, and they will still represent the interests of the warriors. A political group does not look at where you are originally from, but where you sit.
Whose interests do you represent?
For now, it is impossible to eradicate the gentry.
Historically, the three hundred years of the Northern and Southern Dynasties only severely weakened them. If you want to eradicate them completely within a few decades, that is just a dream.
It would be good to achieve a certain degree of restriction and balance, and this is also the "civil and military harmony" mentioned by Wang Yan.
Shao Xun looked at the paper in his hand again.
Generally speaking, according to his opinions, there are three categories of victory in war: "upper gains", "middle gains" and "lower gains".
The conditions before the start of the battle are also subdivided, such as "entering the battle" if you hit less and more, "middle formation" if your troops and equipment are equal, and "going down" if you hit more and less.
In the final judgment, the "turn" is determined based on the pre-war strength comparison and the battle results.
For example, "going into battle" (hitting more with less) and "capture" (capturing and killing more than 40% of the enemy's troops) will count for five rounds of merit.
"Go into battle", "win", count four turns.
And so on.
With the twelfth rank of Cexun, you can be a second-grade official, which does not necessarily mean that you have an actual official position. Anyway, the salary level is high.
If you can't use up the Xunzhuan yourself, you can give it to your nephews and relatives.
Hitting more with less and capturing more than 40% of the enemy troops twice is enough to achieve ten turns. In fact, it is not easy to achieve.
Especially in battles between regular countries, the gap in combat effectiveness between the two parties is not that big, so it becomes very difficult at this time.
But it is still a path left for warriors.
Ordinary people, if they are lucky enough, can gradually accumulate meritorious service and eventually change their official status.
This was a big killer, and Wang Yan was very worried about it, so he is still admonishing him to this day.
"What do you think the Taiwei will do if he performs this method?" Shao Xun thought for a while and asked.
Wang Yan was silent for a long time and said: "Ming Gong might as well choose an army to try it out. In this way, the backlash will be smaller."
This is the pilot!
"Okay, let's choose one of the underworld soldiers to try." Shao Xun patted his thigh and said.
Chapter completed!
