Shenkeng system

Chapter 88

Tong Guan was silent for a while, and then said after a long time: "Sir, the 16 words are indeed a good remedy. But when you really start to take action, there are always thousands of things. Things in the court are very deep... Look at my weight in the court. How?" Tong Guan suddenly asked.

"Private Tong is very popular now, right?"

"Do you know how this is done?"

"I don't know!"

"First of all, you have to understand that everything in this world belongs to the Holy One, and everyone's power is given by the Holy One! Therefore, the only and reliable true God of the Holy One, we must respect and be loyal to the Holy One. The Holy One is the center of everything. We must guard our surroundings with one heart and one mind, observe words and colors, lean our noses, see what they see, hear what they hear, think about what they think, and speak what they say. Only in this way can we get holy family. The more you have, the bigger your goal is, and everyone wants to replace it..." Tong Guan somehow talked about his own way of being an official, Zhao Si is also a smart person, the only thing he lacks is this kind of stuff, so he Listen carefully.

Tong Guan continued: "Everyone has sharpened their heads and squeezed closer to the Holy One. You have too much power in your hands, and you have too many people. Then you will block the way of others! At this time, you have to know how to advance and retreat. People who don't know how to advance and retreat can only have arrogance for a while, not for a long time! People who know how to advance and retreat can understand two methods: cooperation and exchange! Only by cooperating with others, based on profit, forming an alliance and forming a big net, can move with one move The whole body, so that this big network involving tens of millions of people will be stable, and only you can be stable as a part of this network! This is cooperation!..."

Tong Guan took a sip of tea and saw that Zhao Si was sitting very peacefully and listening very seriously, so he continued: "There is still an exchange, using part of the power in your hands at the right time to benefit others and win over some people. Exchange; timely handing over part of one's excess power in exchange for the excess power of allies, exchanging what is needed, this is also an exchange; timely recommending allies and even opponents in front of the Holy One, gaining fame, winning the support of allies and opponents, This is also an exchange... In short, everything is between trade-offs..."

Tong Guan talked a lot about how to be an official, then let out a sigh of relief, and asked, "Do you know, sir, why did the old man tell you these things?"

"Above the court, there are powerful figures such as Taishi Cai, Privy Tong, Taifu Yang, and Taiwei Gao. As the Lord said, everything is based on invitation, cooperation, and exchange to obtain power, and then consolidate power to form a The invisible big net, as the adults said, this net can affect the whole body with a single move... The sixteen words Xiao Ke mentioned earlier: stabilize the north, cultivate internal governance, improve armaments, and train new armies! Although there are only sixteen words words, but the interests involved are indeed all-round... and if these sixteen words are to be truly implemented, the official and military systems of the Song Dynasty must be fundamentally changed. This is a reform! Whenever there is a reform, it is bound to move the power. In front of such a big net, whose power and interests can we move?" Zhao Si said indifferently.

"Mr. is really a god!" Tong Guan admired sincerely, "I originally thought that Mr. was young and had never been in court, just like those Confucian students who have just obtained fame, who are full of self-cultivation, family planning, governance, and education. The grand ambition of peace in the world, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, he is high-spirited, he only thinks of reform and improvement, and doesn't think of anything else. I didn't expect that Mr. will see through it at a glance, and see through the key points at a glance..."

Zhao Sigong clasped his hands, interrupted Tong Guan's words, and said: "Not to mention anything else, if it is a reform, the first hurdle that cannot be passed should be with you, Tong Guan, right?"

"To be honest, I don't agree with too much tossing! To put it bluntly, the world is already tossed. If it stays the same, maybe it can be pushed back for a few years. If it is suddenly tossed, there will be tigers and wolves around outside, and people's grievances will boil inside. , any wave can capsize this ship..."

I have to admit that what Tong Guan said makes sense. The current Song Dynasty is indeed the current situation. Conservative interest groups are one aspect, and internal and external troubles are even more serious aspects. Tossing from the court will affect the whole body , It's not just interest groups that are moving, but the whole world!The sixteen words he said may seem simple, but in essence they will shake the basic national policy of Song Wenzhi!Once the new army is trained, it is impossible to use the nonsense military system of the Song Dynasty, which does not know the generals and does not know the soldiers; and the manufacture of armaments is the highlight of Zhao Si. What is the basis for counting the forbidden army?Isn't it a powerful gunpowder weapon?How can this thing be controlled by ordinary people at will?How to cultivate Ming and internal governance?Since we want to cultivate enlightenment, it means that it is very unclear and dark now, so we need to cultivate enlightenment!This fundamentally negates Zhao Ji's court.It means that Zhao Ji can accept negation, but if he wants to cultivate enlightenment, who should he cultivate? For revolutionary things, some lives must be changed, and whose lives should be changed?Who doesn't know who will die!Who is unknown?In Zhao Ji's dynasty, the most unknown ones were the six thieves, Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Yang Jian, Gao Qi and others!And the power in the hands of these people is so strong and the network formed is so strong, how can they be easily shaken?
Of course, the most important thing is that the manpower and material resources required to do so are beyond imagination, and the money has to be spent like water... To stabilize the north, people have to increase the old coins and various tributes; armament manufacturing is the highlight of the money spent... ...Of course, after the new army is trained, it can be greatly reduced, but this is all for a later time...

Zhao Si denied his sixteen-character policy in his heart...

"My lord, Xiao Ke is just saying that! Think carefully, this is indeed a strong medicine. People who have been ill for a long time and are weak, if the medicine is too strong, they may really be put to death!"

"Sir, do you have an appropriate prescription?" Tong Guan still didn't give up, he felt that Zhao Si really had incredible abilities.

"If strong medicine doesn't work, then take some slow medicine!"

"How to take the slow medicine?"

"Treat the head and foot for the headache, treat the foot for the pain, give some medicine for the pain, as time goes by, change with the time, wait for the opportunity, that's all..."

"Where should Da Song's medicine be given now?"

"Of course the army!"

"Why?"

"Because there are Liao, Jin, Xixia, Tubo, and Dali on the outside, and there are bandits all over the inside. If one side is not careful, the Song Dynasty will be overthrown! If people want to kill you, if you can't beat them, you will only perish!"

"There are many people who hold great power, but in the Song Dynasty, the only person who holds military power is actually the Holy One! Today's military system is the ancestral system and cannot be changed! For the current plan, the only way to do it is to put medicine on the armament..."

"Xiao Ke also thinks so!" Zhao Si smiled, "The barbarians are called tigers and wolves. If you fight against tigers and wolves with bare hands, you will most likely be killed by them; if you have sticks and stones in your hands, you will have a better chance of winning; If you have a plain knife in your hand, you have an [-]% chance of winning; if you have a strong bow and crossbow, you have a [-]% chance of winning; It is under the condition of equal quantity!"

"Unfortunately, in terms of armaments and training, Gao Qiu and Taiwei Gao are in charge..."
