Chapter 546
Zong Dao: "In fact, the matter is very simple. Since the demise of the Tang Dynasty, this unreasonable system has always existed and is still in use today."

"What system?"

"Jiedushi's military power is too great." Tianya said: "If Jiedushi in various places only had [-]% of the current military strength, and the rest of the military force was controlled by the father, there would be no embarrassment like today. Jiedushi is an official position. There is no problem, Jiedu envoys should have military power, but many Jiedu envoys are not on the front line, and they have these military powers to consolidate their own strength, not to defend their home and country."

Yaoyao nodded and said: "Oh~ I understand. Then why didn't your father cut all the military power of Jiedushi?"

Fan Zhi said: "Your Majesty rules the world with benevolence and righteousness, and your Majesty's country was originally able to board the plane and become emperor with the help of these Jiedu envoys' troops. Who can take this face and avenge you?"

Dou Yi said: "And this matter is not as simple as imagined. If Jiedushi feels that his power is threatened, he may rebel collectively. If you want to reduce the military power of Jiedushi, you must not only have sufficient reasons, but also have If you are strong enough, you are not afraid of these Jiedushi rebels. There will always be opportunities, but this matter needs to be done step by step."

Yaoyao feels that her IQ is not online. How come everyone understands it but she is the only one who doesn’t?However, it seemed that Ning An and Lei Fang didn't quite understand it either. Sure enough, it was these gentlemen who were fighting for the world. Among the people present, only Dugu Xingyue showed no surprise, and she also understood the stakes.

Yaoyao didn't want men to be so arrogant, so she looked at Dugu Xingyue. Yaoyao always thought that she was very smart, so at least she let women get involved.

"Sister Xingyue, do you have any good ideas?"

Dugu Xingyue shook her head and said: "This group of big men can't do anything about it, what can I say as a woman? What's more, this matter must be done by a bitch, and a shameless bitch."

Dugu Xingyue had already understood Zong Xin's thoughts, and she knew why Zong Xin chose Zhao Kuangyin, because he was cheap enough.But Dugu Xingyue also reminded Yaoyao, because their first reaction when they mentioned a bitch was Zhao Kuangyin, and there was no one else but him.

"It makes sense, it makes sense." Dou Yi said with a smile: "This matter has to be done by a bitch. No wonder our Majesty can't do it, because His Majesty is kind-hearted, and I hope other people can be less selfish. Don't cause too much trouble to His Majesty. As expected, the military governors everywhere are not good people."

Guo Wei does not have the so-called benevolence of a woman, but he cannot attack people who have not made any mistakes.In Guo Wei's eyes, as long as he does not commit crimes, take bribes and bend the law, Guo Wei will not embarrass this person.If you are in a public family, you must be good at spiritual practice. As long as an official does not do evil, he is a good person, because it is too easy for an official to make things difficult for the people.

Therefore, Guo Wei has not developed the military, but has continued to develop the economy. Because Guo Wei knew that he could not handle this matter, he left it to Chai Rong.Only by getting this matter done can Dazhou continue to develop, otherwise everything will be in vain. Now Guo Wei is just saving money for Chai Rong so that Chai Rong will not worry about money in the future.

Being an emperor also has its own difficulties. In fact, there are no real fools in this world. Since the Tang Dynasty, those who destroyed the old dynasty and established a new dynasty were all in the same official position, that is, Jiedushi.Jiedushi has too much financial resources and military strength, as long as he sees the opportunity to rebel, and other Jiedushi maintains a wait-and-see attitude, that's why Jiedushi frequently succeeds.

If this situation continues, the Central Plains will never be unified, so the military power of Jiedushi must be reduced, and the number of Jiedushi at all levels must be stipulated, and this number is far less than the current number. If the country is safe and peaceful, then only the people of the country can live a good life.

Fan Zhi said awkwardly: "I am also a Jiedushi, the Jiedushi of the Zhongwu Army, don't forget me."

"I didn't say you."

Just like Fan Zhi, there are too many XX army envoys. Although their strength is not to be feared, Fan Zhi only has about 30 troops, which is nothing to the whole Da Zhou.But if there are ten Jiedu envoys like Fan Zhi, that would be [-] soldiers, and the XX Army Jiedu envoys like Fan Zhi would have no fewer than one hundred in Dazhou...that is to say, there are [-] troops stationed in various places , but these Jiedushi used the excuse of protecting one side's safety as an excuse, and were unwilling to share these troops, because military power is the lifeblood of a Jiedushi.

Jiedu envoys like Fan Zhi are directly under the jurisdiction of regional Jiedushi envoys, such as Hedong Jiedushi, Hexi Jiedushi... and so on.This kind of person governs more than a dozen Jiedu envoys, and with his own troops, there are tens of thousands or even one hundred thousand troops. For the imperial power, this system is too dangerous.They rebel at the slightest disagreement, and their 10,000+ troops are enough to shake the entire Zhou Dynasty.

Zong Xin and Dou Yi became friends while chatting. Dou Yi was not only smart but also knowledgeable and courageous. He did not care about personal gain or loss. The most important thing was that he was loyal to the emperor and patriotic. He believed that Guo Wei could bring peace to the world.The reason is very simple, because Guo Wei's son-in-law is Zong Xin...

Soon, the group had enough to eat and drink, and Dou Yi staggered home. She was so happy that she drank too much. Fan Zhi also deliberately sent two servants to follow Dou Yi, if he collapsed halfway , Just carry it home.

That night, Zong Xin changed into monk robes and cassocks, and then told Dugu Xingyue to let them go to Xuzhou not far away without following him.

It was only ten miles from this small town to Xuzhou City. Zong Xin's lightness kung fu was extremely high, and he quickly rushed outside the gate of Xuzhou City.At night, a well-dressed young monk suddenly appeared below the city gate, and everyone was on alert.

The guard asked: "Where is the comer, please report your name."

All the archers drew their bows and clasped their bows. As soon as the guard gave the order, they would immediately release arrows to pierce the monk's heart with thousands of arrows.At this time, Xuzhou has been completely occupied by Murong Yanchao, and everyone knows that Xuzhou is a place of right and wrong, and no one will enter the city even during the daytime. If Murong Yanchao didn't stop it, the people here would have all escaped from the city long ago. outside.

Zong Xin channeled his true energy, and suddenly his whole body was engulfed in flames, lighting up the night sky.The archers far away on the crenels of the tower could feel a rush of hot air coming towards them, unable to stand the sudden stimulation, all the archers shot their arrows.This time Zong Xin didn't need to dodge at all, nor did he need to protect his body with true energy. The bow and arrow couldn't reach Zong Xin at all, and turned into scorched earth.

Zong Xin secretly mobilized his inner strength, and then said loudly: "Amitabha, you are so good, the poor monk is called Zong Xin, and call out that grandson of Murong Yanchao."

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree, after hearing the name Zong, everyone was scared out of their wits.Immediately sent someone to call Murong Yanchao, after getting the letter, Murong Yanchao ran faster than anyone else, and came directly under the crenel of the tower.Murong Yanchao is still very confident in his martial arts, but after seeing Zong Xin's whole body in flames, he felt that something was wrong. Zong Xin had already learned the Nine Suns Burning Heaven Jue. , No one knows who wins and who loses.

"Zong Xin~!" Murong Yanchao gritted his teeth and said, "You shameless monk, you really deserve the trust of the late emperor Liu Chengyou. If it weren't for you, how could Guo Wei ascend the throne and become emperor? How dare you appear in my palace?" In front of me? I simply don’t know whether to live or die."

Zong Dao: "Everyone knows who is right and who is wrong, so why bother talking? I just want to ask you here, are you really colluding with Li Jing and planning to counterattack Da Zhou?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you, that's it." Murong Yanchao said: "Don't think that I don't know how many soldiers Guo Wei has in his hands. My eldest brother Liu Chongbing and I settled our suspicions and fought back and forth. Guo Wei will die. Even if you cede half of the country, you must take it back. I am from the Liu family."

Zong Xin smiled lightly and said, "Good job, good job. You really don't cry when you see the coffin. Do you still remember the comment that the poor monk gave you? How did you die?"

How could Murong Yanchao forget such a thing?Zong Xin once said that he died of cold and hunger.Murong Yanchao couldn't believe it. The weather was getting colder now, but after all, it was not too cold in the southern winter. He had a lot of food in his army, most of which were funded by Li Jing, so it was impossible for him to starve to death.

"So what if I remember? You once said that I died of cold and starvation."

Zong Xin said with a smile: "Just remember, the poor monk just wants to make sure, whether you remember this, see you on the battlefield."

After saying that, Zong Xin turned around and left.Murong Yanchao held back his breath, and didn't rush down to fight Zong Xin, because Zong Xin...is not good.Now is the critical moment, one must not act with righteousness, even if one hates him to death, Zong Xin is too strange.

Murong Yanchao was still very afraid of Zong Xin. Zong Xin was very capable and had now learned the Nine Suns Burning Heaven Technique. If he rushed in and fought to the death of both sides, Li Jing might not give him face.Don't miss this opportunity. If you can't form a pincer attack on Guo Wei, you may not be able to destroy the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Murong Yanchao still didn't understand, why did Zong Xin come here?Just ask a few words and leave?It is absolutely impossible for a person like Zong Xin to do this kind of thing for no reason. Could it be... that he will really lose power in this battle?Impossible, absolutely impossible, to borrow troops from Li Jing to respond to Liu Chong, Guo Wei's troops are not strong at this time, it is impossible for him to take into account the attack from both sides, not to mention the distance between Weizhou and Xuzhou is too far, Guo Wei's troops cannot Take care of left and right.

Murong Yanchao firmly believed that he would win this time. Guo Wei needed to send half of his troops to Weizhou and the other half to Xuzhou. The result was only one. .

Of course, there is another possibility.Guo Wei took all the troops to fight in person, first repelling one side, and then attacking the other side.But the distance between Weizhou and Xuzhou is so far away, and Guo Wei has just beaten one of them, so Guo Wei has no spare power to fight the other, so no matter how Guo Wei deploys him, he will undoubtedly lose.
