And it's not just the generals who are against it, even the civil servants are against it.

Everyone objected mainly to two points. The first point was that there was too much movement. Not only did it need to mobilize two newly formed troops, but also transfer Zuo Wuwei from Guanzhong to the seaside. The three troops added up to tens of thousands People are tossing about this matter, and the cost of food, grass, and supplies is not a small amount. Datang is already so poor that he started the Fusang Battle just to make money, so it is still necessary to spend this injustice money?

Another point is that this time a large number of live ammunition is used, and the troops are required to cooperate with coordinated attacks. Even in Zhang Nuo's arrangement, all troops are required to connect the attack sequence and interval as much as possible. It is best to ensure that the attacks can be continuous and the artillery lands. In the future, the bombing will have to keep up, and after the first two are over, the follow-up landing troops will immediately enter the bombardment area just now.

Then someone raised a question, will this cause unnecessary casualties?

Of course, there are still old-fashioned questions about whether the exercise will be effective or not, but Zhang Nuoli is too lazy to deal with such questions. I really think I have no temper. After explaining so many times, if If you still don't understand at this time, then get out of the way, I don't have time to explain to you.

Zhang Nuo naturally had nothing to say to this kind of stupid person, but Zhang Nuo couldn't ignore those who raised serious questions before.

After all, no matter what he said, it was impossible to make a decision with one word. It could even be said that even the emperor Li Shimin couldn't do whatever he wanted regardless of other people's feelings.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo could only choose to explain the meaning of this to the big guys earnestly, and at the same time cooperate with Li Shimin to stick to his decision as much as possible.

In the end, Zhang Nuo was unavoidably a little anxious, especially those civil servants. Their habitual saying that the needles hidden in the Mianli were actually yin and yang strange words made Zhang Nuo finally pat the table to settle the matter.

Of course, Li Shimin still supported it, and it can be said that this matter was able to pass so reluctantly in the end, which is also inseparable from Li Shimin's strong support.

After everyone left, Zhang Nuo leaned back on the seat like a puddle of mud, and didn't even recover from drinking several cups of tea in one breath.

This kind of occasion is too unsuitable for him. He is still used to the feeling of hiding at home and just telling Li Shimin what he wants to do.

This kind of thing like repeatedly discussing with people is really not suitable for him to do, and he also wants to understand it, and he will never do such thankless things in the future.

Damn, you can tell Lao Li directly, and let Lao Li arrange the people below to cooperate, why do you have to kindly let these people participate, and want to train them, but I didn't expect people to not appreciate it at all. Then just do it yourself in the future, if other people can't keep up and fall behind, then you deserve it, who told you not to seize the opportunity?

Chapter 778 Li Shimin and Zhang Nuo's heartbreak

After hearing Zhang Nuo's complaint, Li Shimin smiled wryly!

There are many things that civil servants and generals don't know, but the two brothers have actually discussed it. At least Zhang Nuo has confessed to Li Shimin. If those people don't participate in these matters in time, they will definitely fall behind from the court and the army in the future of.

This is not a prophecy or a hypothesis, but a scientific judgment formed by Zhang Nuo based on his own knowledge.

After all, you let a person who has never seen the combat methods of the navy and air force, how to command these two forces, let alone command, even how to cooperate.

Not only military generals, but also civil servants. The form of war has changed. It is not the form of the cold weapon era where you cut me with a knife and you stab you with a shot. Not the same impact.

If you don't get involved and understand at this time, what can you do when Datang starts to use troops abroad?You can't even figure out how to supply the army, and even how to preserve the new military resources is a problem.

Hearing Zhang Nuo's complaints, Li Shimin fell silent for a rare moment, and finally shook his head and sighed,

"My dear brother, I don't really blame them for being like this. Some of them are actually afraid that they won't be able to keep up with our pace, so they wondered if we could go slower, so that they might have a chance to keep up. !"

"And there are still some people who are lazy and don't want to follow along. They think that they are living together with the country anyway, so they can live a good life if they don't work hard. Why bother themselves so hard! "

"Of course, whether you are afraid or lazy, there is still a kind of fluke mentality. Obviously, the changes you brought have slowly appeared before their eyes, but they still think that the world will not become so. Fast, at least not as fast as you say!"

"Pfft!"

After Zhang Nuo heard Li Shimin's words, he sneered unceremoniously, and then said angrily,

"In fact, these fools should go and see this exercise. After going there, they will find that most of the things they learned in the past, the military books secretly hidden at home, and years of experience on the battlefield will become inapplicable. Already!"

"I still want to pay attention to the formation as before, and then it is impossible to meet the enemy, charge, and kill the enemy. You are still one or two miles away, and this side is already covered by artillery fire!"

"Others don't know Lao Li, you should know that the new type of artillery is already being tested, especially after the appearance of flowering bombs, the tactics of the sea of ​​​​people is the death tactics. If it is still the same as before, facing the artillery swarms, you will die as many as you come. As long as the logistics can keep up, hundreds of thousands of people can be killed in one day!"

"What are they going to do in the face of this situation? I just softened my heart a bit. I don't want to see them fall behind and want to give them a hand. Now it seems that they should slowly decay!"

Li Shimin had nothing to say when he saw Zhang Nuo's righteous indignation. As the emperor and Zhang Nuo's good brother, he saw too many things in Zhang Nuo that others didn't see.

Therefore, he knows that the form of war has been quietly changing. In the future, wars will no longer be a world of individual force. Technology and logistics will become the prerequisites for the strength of an army, and all the tactics of the army will also be different. will change.

He clearly knows that this change is even more powerful than the turmoil brought about by the military system reform. To put it bluntly, the military system reform will not have much impact on these military generals, and it is even good for them, because their subordinates Sergeants are more elite.

However, changes in tactics and even the form of warfare will gradually remove a large number of people who cannot keep up from the army.

The army is a very pure place. If you can do it, you can do it. If you can’t, you won’t be able to send it.

Li Shimin actually had the same idea as Zhang Nuo before. After all, these people were generals who followed him to fight the world, and they were the guys who really fought with him on the battlefield.

But now he discovered that these people actually didn't need his pull at all, and they had gradually lost themselves in the prosperity of high officials and generous salaries.

Perhaps what they yearn for is the delicious and delicious life of today, and this kind of life has wiped out their aggressiveness, and they simply cannot bear the pain of re-learning with a bunch of youngsters.

Even some people not only won't keep up with this kind of footsteps, but also frantically want to block Datang's progress, hoping that everyone will stay in that glorious moment like themselves, but they don't know that the road ahead is even more brilliant.

Or they know that they are just afraid of falling behind, so they simply hope that everyone will not make progress.

However, as an emperor, Li Shimin naturally couldn't stop Datang's footsteps. Now Zhang Nuo gave them enough opportunities, but they still did so.

This made Li Shimin, who had been persuading Zhang Nuo to give them a chance, a little disheartened!

That's right, the person who really pulled Zhang Nuo over to persuade Zhang Nuo to give these people a chance was actually Li Shimin, Zhang Nuo's lazy nature, at most, he was pulling people to help him, and doing the work honestly according to what he said and arranged just fine.

On weekdays, when did he discuss too specific matters with these people, he only discussed with Li Shimin, and then either threw it to Li Shimin and asked him to arrange it, or directly arranged for the people below to implement it.

Why do you want to find a job that you are uncomfortable with, and you can arrange it directly, but you have to discuss it?

However, this time it was Zhang Nuo who was persuaded by Li Shimin. After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Nuo felt that he really wanted to help the existing group of civil servants and generals in Datang to make progress slowly, so he agreed.

But judging from the results, not to mention completely disappointing, it was far from meeting Li Shimin and Zhang Nuo's initial expectations, which made them both a little disheartened.

Especially Li Shimin, he sincerely hopes that these courtiers can follow in the footsteps of the Tang Dynasty and make progress together, compose a song of triumph of the emperor and ministers, and even a hundred years later, they can leave a good story about the emperor and ministers in the history books.

But looking back, he led everyone forward with good intentions, but it turned out that Zhang Nuo had ulterior motives in wasting the treasury?
