Chapter 1054: There is no Zhendong Army in the world, Wang Dang wants to die
"good!"
“Very good!”
"Well, I'm right here, wishing General Wang that all his wishes will come true in advance!"
Since it doesn't make sense, there's no need to continue talking. From now on, everyone can just rely on their own abilities!
"Uncle Dang, Zi Sheng and I are as close as brothers!"
"In the future, Zi Sheng can be my arm!" Wang Yu turned to Wang Dangzhi and said solemnly.
Wang Zisheng is Wang Dang’s biological son.
"General, can't you really tolerate the Zhendong Army?"
Wang Dangzhi finally figured out Wang Yu's thoughts at this time, but his expression was extremely dejected.
No wonder Wang Chang was so angry. Only Wang Yu benefited from this matter, but the loss was to the interests of the entire Wang family.
The Zhendong Army is no different from the private army of the Wang family!
Without the Zhendong Army, the Wang family would be like a tiger without claws and teeth, losing all the foundation for its foothold.
Without the protection of the Zhendong Army, the Wang family would no longer be qualified to be ranked among the top noble families in the world along with the others.
"Uncle should understand that no monarch would want to see such an existence as the Zhendong Army, nor should there be such an existence as the Zhendong Army!" Wang Yu said without any doubt.
Among the seven dynasties, apart from Da Cang and Da Xia, which dynasty has such a presence as the Zhendong Army?
Among the great military forces, the Duke of Xiliang and the Duke of Beiliang are already high-ranking officials and the top powerful figures in the military. However, as they have been stationed at the border all year round, their troops will not develop into a force like the Zhendong Army.
Support a private army.
Without him, the foundation is not enough.
Moreover, the base of these two troops is not on the border like the Zhendong Army. They are just sent there to garrison.
In the Great Wu Dynasty, among the top aristocratic families, there were few military personnel, and it was even less likely to develop into such a group. In this dynasty, more than 80% of the top aristocratic families were mainly civil servant groups.
Daqian and military power were almost in the hands of the clan.
Even if such high-ranking figures as Wei and Chu appeared occasionally in the military, they would not develop into such a military group. Even if they did appear, it would only be temporary and they would soon return to dust.
Return to the land.
But it is almost unimaginable that a military group like Daxia or Da Cang can maintain for hundreds of years. Since ancient times, there have been few cases of such a thing.
Of course, there are historical reasons behind the development of such deformed military groups by these two dynasties.
Da Cang was because of the Battle of Defeating Yan. Emperor Gaozu was exhausted mentally and physically, and his body began to collapse from then on. At that time, he no longer had enough time to do some things, but he was able to create such a stable political system as Da Cang.
The top family in Da Cang has been stable for so many years, and it has become a generation of outstanding people.
Daxia was the emperor's most talented person back then. Considering his various circumstances at the time, it was just that he was unwilling to sit in that position. It was not because he lacked the ability and strength.
Therefore, Great Xia Emperor Gaozu did not have enough ability and strength to suppress Di Yi, so he could only admit these things with pinched noses.
As his name suggests, he is number one.
Subsequent emperors, in order to balance the situation, could only deliberately establish other political or military groups, and then slowly developed the other three gates.
And what Wang Yu wants to abolish is never just the Zhendong Army, but a deformed military group like Da Cang. In the future, if he achieves great things, the army under him can only be the army of the imperial court, and cannot be said to be a certain person.
A private soldier of a person or a family.
Therefore, abolishing the designation of the Zhendong Army and breaking it up with the various soldiers and horses was his first step.
What he really wants to do is not just one of the four imperial merchants!
It also includes the four major generals' mansions, the six major aristocratic families, and even the entire political system of Da Cang.
Although this political system is extremely stable, it is also like a pool of stagnant water.
Even this pool of stagnant water is unique among the seven dynasties.
When the Great Cang Dynasty began, these were the top families. Now, hundreds of years later, they are still the same. During this process, those who were able to develop were all suppressed by the alliance.
This kind of stability certainly has its benefits, but there are also endless problems behind it.
Otherwise, why would he want to make Guan Zhong carry out reforms?
The first step was to directly attack the Zhendong Army, which was also to show his determination.
Perhaps in the eyes of many people, this kind of thing can indeed be done later.
For example, after truly establishing a dynasty.
However, he has already reached that point, and before he wants to use this knife to cut the cake, he has to move not only the old interest groups, but also the new groups that have developed in the process.
If the top military figures who follow Wang Yu have the opportunity to develop into a huge military group like the Zhendong Army, how many of them will give up such an opportunity easily?
Therefore, whether it is difficult to use the knife at this time or to use the knife at that time is still a dead end.
The interests between the monarch and his ministers are sometimes not the same. In many cases, there is even an antagonistic relationship between the two.
There is also a struggle between monarch and ministers.
"The general will do whatever it takes to use my old bones as a sword!"
When Wang Dangzhi heard Wang Yu mention Wang Zisheng, his expression was full of ridicule.
He is willing to serve as Wang Yu's sword, so the so-called right-hand man can be realized, and it is only possible.
However, the implication of the same sentence is that if he is not willing to be the sword, then Wang Zisheng's future will not be guaranteed.
It's just that this knife is not easy to use!
After all, once this knife is cut, it will touch the cake of everyone in the Zhendong Army interest group. Those who want to reform will definitely be counterattacked by the interest groups. And he, the person who is the knife, will have to bear it even more when the time comes.
The most direct and fierce counterattack.
Now it seems that no wonder Zhao Anling doesn’t want that phase!
Only a fool like him could happily continue.
But at this time, Wang Dangzhi suddenly realized that it seemed that the current Zhendong Army had reached its weakest point.
The former 300,000 Zhentung Army, the 100,000 with the strongest combat power, has now become the Kwantung Army.
And after these 100,000 people were reorganized into the Kwantung Army, how long has it been since the newly reorganized 100,000 soldiers and horses were formed?
Moreover, Su Dingfang's troops currently fighting against the four small dynasties are mostly composed of the original troops of the Zhendong Army. Unknowingly, the 300,000 Zhendong Army who were still located in Yanbei are now actually
Only the 100,000 people in Tianlang Pass are left.
Even if the old interest groups want to resist at this time, their intensity will be greatly reduced!
It was indeed well thought out!
I'm afraid this kid has been preparing for this day for so many years!
"If you want to achieve a great cause, why should you stick to certain methods?"
"In the future, even if it is really in the history books, what kind of infamy will it bear?"
"But, so what?" Wang Yu said solemnly.
A new era is coming soon. Anyone who wants to block the coming of this new era will only be ruthlessly crushed by the wheels of history.
And in this process, even if he used some criticized methods, it doesn't matter, he only cares about the final result!
Strong people never care about that!
Otherwise, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Li Shimin, Zhao Kuangyin, Zhu Di... would not have achieved great success.
And Wang Dangzhi is the most suitable knife to attack the Zhendong Army.
After all, with his prestige among the Zhendong Army, it would be the most likely to cause shock if he proposed the order to evacuate the Zhendong Army and break up the Zhendong Army and regroup.
Moreover, only when one's own people act, can they be more able to stab those old interest groups severely.
Moreover, the largest part of the old interest groups is originally the Wang family. His appearance in his capacity is the best benchmark to attract firepower.
This is why, in Wang Dangzhi's view, it is still unclear whether Wang Yu can fulfill Wang Zisheng's guarantee.
The impact of the interests of old groups has never been said to be direct and forceful by any ruler. It is all about twists and turns, differentiation and co-optation.
As for how to divide and win over, on the one hand, we must achieve the established goals and benefits, and at the same time throw other forces as bones to attract others.
On the other hand, it is to throw out a target and attract firepower.
As a king, he may not necessarily be able to attract all the firepower. In the end, if it really gets worse, maybe everyone in his department will be thrown out.
The most typical one is Shang Yang of Blue Star. Although his reform was successful, what will be his fate in the face of the counterattack of the noble forces represented by Ying Qian and the forces of the old aristocratic family named Qianlong?
The body was torn apart and the whole family was implicated in the death.
Therefore, Wang Dangzhi really could not fully believe Wang Yu's guarantee.
He could definitely imagine that if it was really necessary, or when the need came, his nephew would definitely be able to make up his mind to recognize all the members of the family and block the knife. At that time, he simply could not
I won’t remember today’s promise.
Just like with Wang Chang, Wang Dangzhi also parted on bad terms.
However, Wang Yu didn't seem to care about this at all.
He mentioned this issue today not to discuss it with them, but to inform them.
And he had never imagined that just a few words could make Wang Dangzhi willing to be a sword. The person who could really make Wang Dangzhi willing to be a sword would never be him.
On the other side, Wang Dangzhi locked himself in the study after returning home with a lot of worries, and did not go out for the whole day.
Naturally, he is not willing to make this knife!
Once you make this knife, it will harm not only yourself and your own family, but also the entire Wang family.
He thought about it, maybe if he died, he wouldn't have to be in this dilemma.
A superior person can do whatever it takes to achieve his or her goals, but he or she can show some insignificant generosity in order to show his so-called kindness.
After all, their first consideration will always be profit.
Therefore, even if he dies, Wang Yu may be angry that he was not allowed to make this knife, but he will basically not be angry with his family.
This general, who had been in the military for 20 to 30 years since he was a teenager, was forced to have the idea of committing suicide.
However, just when he was preparing to arrange his funeral and meet his family for the last time, and was preparing to answer this problem in such a cruel way, his son Wang Zisheng was one step ahead of him.
It was the first prelude to this vigorous event.
Wang Zisheng, who was only twenty-five years old, was promoted to the sixth rank of General Xingwu. He was the general of the Douzi camp in Zhendong City and was in charge of a battalion of soldiers and horses.
Not long ago, he was promoted to General Hulong to supervise the security of the palace and enjoy the right to participate in the political affairs of the DPRK.
As for this young general, the first book he read in the morning court and the first target he fought against was his own family.
It can be said that the Zhendong Army is the Wang family's Zhendong Army, not Da Cang's Zhendong Army, although that is indeed the case.
But Wang Yu would not say such things outside, and Wang Chang would not say them outside. However, any normal person would not say such things outside so wantonly.
However, he said it!
Moreover, he even said it in front of all the ministers.
On this day, Wang Dangzhi did not go to court because of the troubles in his heart. However, when Wang Zisheng was in the court hall, he righteously stated the ten disadvantages of the privatization of the army and gave a series of solutions, Zhao Anling was in pain
He closed his eyes.
Sure enough, he knew that the position of prime minister was not so easy to obtain.
Wang Dangzhi has only been in this position under his butt for a few days, and the consequences of his position as prime minister have to explode.
Zhao Anling doesn't even know what will be waiting for him in the future?
Guan Zhong also looked helplessly at the young and vigorous but upright Wang Zisheng.
He also knew that reform was necessary, but before Ping Cangce progressed to a certain extent, he only hoped that even if reform was necessary, it would be carried out slowly, using the method of boiling the frog in warm water to weaken a certain degree of influence as much as possible during this period.
Internal shock.
However, judging from the current situation, his lord has no intention of proceeding as slowly as he thought. This is one of the most critical parts.
Guan Zhong, who had reached the peak of his political skills, could certainly see that the existence of the four major generals' offices and the four major imperial merchants was a threat to the monarchy itself.
If he wants to reform, he will also attack this part.
If it doesn't even touch on the most fundamental issues, then it's nothing but reform. It's just selling dog meat with a sheep's head.
However, reform is reform, but without any foreshadowing at the beginning, just slashing at the most critical part with a knife, is this really good?
