The most reckless man in the Ming Dynasty

Tang Hao's eyes were deep.

In the Ming Dynasty, civil officials were more important than military officials. Civil officials suppressed military officials. Even in military affairs, civil officials led the army. When they won the battle, they were also the most powerful.

In this way, there was no war and chaos in the country as in other dynasties.

But the price paid for this was that military discipline was corrupted and the army was slack. Military officials and warriors could never stand out again. Even Qi Jiguang, who was good at fighting, had experienced many ups and downs and was not valued by the court. The Ming Dynasty always huddled inside the Great Wall and hid behind the border wall, watching the barbarians on the grassland plundering and harassing at will and slaughtering the people in the border towns!

This is the painful price of the literati ruling the country!

The government system in the middle and late Ming Dynasty was undoubtedly deformed and ridiculous.

After Emperor Chenghua tried to weaken the power of civil officials and consolidate the power of the emperor, Zhu Zhongxing chose "the emperor and the literati rule the world together". All the efforts of Emperor Chenghua in his life were wasted, and the civil officials and gentry once again came back to control the government. When Zhu Houzhao in history ascended the throne and became emperor, he began his absurd road to death, suppressing the civil officials and gentry with all his might, and supporting the military generals and nobles with all his might, but in the end he collapsed, or was played to death.

The emperor of the Ming Dynasty was easily dissolved in water, and it was from him, Zhu Houzhao.

After Zhu Houzhao, Emperor Jiajing Zhu Houzhao could have revived the Ming Dynasty. With his personal imperial means, he beat a group of civil officials and gentry. Unfortunately, he did not have such a lofty ambition. He only wanted to cultivate immortality and live forever, and finally caused the Ming Dynasty to completely collapse.

After Jiajing, the Ming Dynasty was completely civil and military, and the civil officials and gentry completely controlled the power and controlled the government, and the military generals and nobles had no chance to come forward!

Now, his arrival has obviously broken this rule.

Under the efforts of the Marquis of Zhongshan, the Beijing Army has regained its combat effectiveness, and has repeatedly fought and won great military exploits, thus cultivating a series of useful generals such as An Guo, Ma Yong and Deng Boyan.

The arrogant and brave generals have begun to show their nature!

For example, in today's incident, according to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, the captured spoils should be distributed by the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households, and how much will actually fall on the heads of the soldiers, it is unknown.

But An Guo, Ma Yong and Deng Boyan just won't give it, even if you are in the name of His Majesty the Emperor, I still won't give it!

If you have the guts, send someone to ask for it!

Come one by one!

If you die, I will give you the title of "martyr for the country"!

This is the so-called arrogant and brave generals!

They have their own unique pride, and no one can trample on it!

Not to mention the civil officials and gentry, even His Majesty the Emperor cannot do that, unless you give him a reward equal to his military exploits!

As Tang Hao moves forward step by step, this phenomenon will only become more and more serious.

Of course, before it reaches a certain level, it will only be a good thing for the Ming Dynasty.

After all, a moderate struggle between civil and military officials is much better than endless party-building and fighting against dissidents!

The struggle between Yan Song's strict party and the Qingliu in the Jiajing Dynasty, the struggle between Zhang Juzheng's reformists and conservatives in the Wanli Dynasty, and the famous Donglin Party...

When Tang Hao thought of these civil officials and gentry who shouted slogans but harmed the country and the people, he felt very sick!

It can be expected that after the end of this war, the noble group that has been eating and waiting for death under the great achievements will have to welcome a fresh blood.

A group of bloodthirsty wolves are going to break into a group of sheep!

When he thought of that scene, Tang Hao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

However, this is far from enough. The inheritance of military generals and nobles has not been found yet, and the establishment of the Central Military Academy must be put on the agenda.

Only by establishing a Central Military Academy to continuously train qualified and excellent military generals for the Ming Dynasty, just as civil officials and gentry continuously obtain fresh blood from the imperial examination system, can we ensure that the Ming Dynasty has generals in every generation and will not fall into the embarrassing situation of no generals available and difficult to continue!

In addition to the nobles of the royal family and the nobles of the foreign relatives, the system of nobles in the Ming Dynasty is mainly composed of the three ranks of duke, marquis, and earl.

These three ranks are divided into flowing titles and hereditary titles.

The flowing titles are naturally titles that cannot be passed on to future generations. They are generally newly promoted earls, such as Xianning Earl Qiu Yue. Before he was promoted to Xianning Marquis, the Xianning Earl was a flowing title.

And the hereditary titles are naturally inherited from generation to generation and rise and fall with the country. This is also the main body of the current Ming Dynasty noble group.

Only by obtaining the hereditary imperial edict can one truly be regarded as entering the noble group and be able to pass on the title to his descendants.

Among this group, those who were awarded the title for founding the country and assisting the fortune are the most honorable, but unfortunately, they are also the rarest.

There are only one or two founding nobles who escaped the bloodbath at the end of the Hongwu period.

Secondly, there are the nobles who are the most numerous. Because of the deliberate suppression of civil officials and gentry, most of them have become parasites who eat and wait to die!

Of course, this unspoken rule has almost no influence over the years.

Now, a new group of nobles has appeared in the Ming Dynasty, that is, the nobles of the Beijing Army, headed by Zhongshan Hou Tang Hao, such as Linjiang Hou Ma Yong, Jining Hou Deng Boyan, Jiangxia Bo Xu Tianci, Wuan Bo Chang Kuohai, Yingchang Bo Tang Mu and others!

This group of Beijing military nobles are in their prime, at the peak of their powers and able to fight. So no matter whether they are noble nobles or hereditary nobles, or of any rank, this force, once it breaks into the lifeless group of nobles, will undoubtedly open a new chapter for the Ming Dynasty court.

After all, Tang Mu, Chang Kuohai and others are not comparable to those founding nobles and Jingnan nobles who live on the glory of their fathers.

Each of them is a real entrepreneur, with numerous military exploits and outstanding military achievements. They are undoubtedly a group of brave generals!

With the addition of this force, Tang Hao is no longer isolated in the court.

And the right to speak in the court depends on confidence and power.

And now, the rise of military merits is the general trend, and they are full of confidence!

Not to mention that they have the strong support of His Majesty the Emperor behind them!

So, what's wrong with me being arrogant?

Tang Hao chuckled and burned An Guo's secret letter.

This is the best era.

The military merits of the Ming Dynasty are decadent and there is no successor.

Emperor Zhu Houzhao is determined to make progress and revive the Ming Dynasty.

That's why he gave Tang Hao the opportunity to lead troops to fight and establish merits.

If it were Zhu Zhongxing, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Tang Hao would not be able to lead troops to fight. As long as he dared to show his head, he would be suppressed by the civil officials and gentry. The key is that Zhu Zhongxing would help the civil officials and gentry, which is disgusting.

"Order the three armies to rest for three days and then march to Kaiping!"

"When we conquer Kaiping and join forces with the Hetao Army, this battle will be declared over and we will succeed immediately!"

After a long battle, the soldiers of the three armies were quite tired.

Not only physically, but also mentally.

After all, the stimulation of slaughtering the elderly, the weak, women and children to the mind and spirit can be imagined.

Now that they heard the commander's order, the war was about to end, and the soldiers of the three armies were all smiling and cheering.

They were really tired!
