Chapter 619 (2/2)

On this day, Ji Chang led his ministers and several of his valued sons to discuss affairs.

One of them, Ji Chang, is a brother of the same milk. His name is Shuhou. In fact, Shuhou is not simple. He is also a famous statesman, militarist, educator and thinker in history. He is known as a saint.

Ji Chang also knew the talent and learning of his uncle, so he promoted him and Ji Fa side by side. Ji Fa was very dissatisfied with this. However, he and uncle were born of the same mother, and they had a good relationship since childhood. It turned out that he was the leader everywhere. Therefore, even after the promotion of his uncle, Ji Fa didn't feel much aversion.

Now the discussion is about Xiqi's military knowledge. Ji Chang puts forward a proposal, which puzzles the court officials and Ji Fa. It turns out that Ji Chang wants to reduce the military spending, even reduce the military strength to govern the people, and put the people's life first.

One of them, Yang Wenshi, put forward a different opinion. He thought that the army was the foundation of a country and could not be easily reduced. It was precisely because of the presence of the army that the Rouran invasion was able to resist the offensive in front of it, and it was only then that he insisted on the personal expedition of his majesty.

If you suddenly reduce the number of generals and soldiers, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with them in the event of an accident.

One of Jichang's most respected ministers is San Yisheng. San Yisheng agrees with Jichang's proposal very much. He thinks that Rouran is Xiqi's biggest enemy. Now Rouran has been personally attacked by his majesty, which directly destroys the whole ethnic group. There is no need to worry about it.

At present, the whole Xiqi has been excessively damaged by the war. Young and middle-aged people need to go home to build their homes. It's good to put them back home temporarily. They can also be recalled in wartime.

Ji Fa felt that Yang Wenshi's opinion was right.

He also said that the army can not be reduced. If it is reduced, it will be difficult to cope with unexpected situations.

San Yisheng saw that Ji Fa insisted so much, but he didn't say much. Ji Chang looked at Ji Fa, who was determined to expand the army. His brows were sad, and then he looked at his uncle.
