Being able to break through institutional constraints is itself a very unstable existence.

Especially when this person is still a general in the army, it is even more dangerous.

Imagine when there are big problems in the capital, these generals break through the system and lead troops into the city, pacifying everything...

The army and force are the real tricks.

The emperor has a high prestige and can still suppress these generals.

But if the emperor has insufficient prestige, these generals will become very certain unstable factors.

This unstable factor is unacceptable to Guo Peng, and Guo Jin is even more unacceptable to it.

"That's why my father had to allow Zi Xiaoshu to resign and punish Zi Lian."

"Zi Lian himself is not very capable. There are many generals who are on par with him. However, because he is a relative general, he has the bonus in this regard and his wealth, he must deal with it. Zi filial piety is second only to being a father. If he doesn't deal with it, it is impossible to deal with it. In addition to Zi filial piety..."

Guo Peng looked at Guo Jin: "Tell me, what other very prestigious generals in the army are difficult for you to control?"

"After our Wei army conquered the world, the world judged military merits and appointed five generals as the forefront of the world. General Zhao Yun of the Guard, General Cao Ren of the West, General Zhang Liao of the East, General Yu Jin of the North, and General Le Jin of the South. When these five people were the only ones, the other generals had less reputations."

Guo Jin answered seriously.

"That's right, these five people have the highest prestige, the greatest power, the most powerful, and the most powerful military achievements. For you, they are more respected by the army. Among them, Cao Ren, who is the most threatening, has been dealt with, and there are four more."

"What my father meant is...they have to deal with it?"

"Do you think you can handle them well?"

Guo Peng smiled and said, "Who do you think you can control? Or do you have the confidence to let who can be your confidant and continue to use him without being backlash?"

"This... Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, the general of the Guard, are loyal, kind and pure, dedicated to the country, never having any usurpation or illegal acts, are examples of generals in the army."

Guo Jin also seems to have a good impression of Zhao Yun.

"That's right. It's because of this that Zilong was placed in the central command of the guards for his father, giving him such great trust. Zilong is a child of the farm, with a simple temperament, and is also the closest to his father's army.

By the way, the several round trips between you and your mother from Luoyang to Northern Xinjiang were all escorted by Zilong and Guo Lie together. They were dedicated and responsibilities, and they never missed each other. Do you still have the impression of these things?"

"It's a little bit, not very clear, but I still remember General Zilong's heroic posture when he rode a white horse."

"Hahahahaha!"

Guo Peng nodded: "Zilong is indeed a model of generals who never forget his original intention. Unfortunately, there are too few such people, and the position of General of Guard is too vital. If you can control it for your father, you may not be able to do so. Apart from Zilong, you should not set up the position of General of Guard in the future."

"My father thinks this position is not good?"

"The key position is to take charge of most of the military power in the capital. Except for those like Zilong who are absolutely trusted by their father, no one can use it. No matter who it is, it is better not to set it up. It is enough to directly disperse the military power. The four generals of the Guard will be enough.

Or you may feel that it is not enough, five generals and six generals are fine, not generals, but the lieutenant is good. When the country was established for your father, there were too many meritorious generals to reward. It would be unreasonable not to give the general the title, but you would not be like this.

You can't entrust military power to one person, especially this person still has prestige. When necessary, relying on his prestige, he can break through the system, lead troops into the city, and turn the situation around. That is the most dangerous."

"My son knows."

When discussing important matters, Guo Jin looked nervous and very serious.

He knew very well the power of the army.

Guo Peng used 5,000 imperial guards to abolish 30,000 to 40,000 scholars and their families, and Guo Jin will never forget such a thing.

Five thousand imperial guards can suppress the world, abolish the privileges of scholars, and destroy the entire privileged group, which shows how powerful the army is.

The army is the foundation and foundation of monarchy, so the military power of the Central Army is most reliable in the hands of the emperor alone.

"There are three remaining people, Yu Jin, Zhang Liao, and Le Jin, what do you think should be dealt with?"

After letting Zhao Yun go, Guo Peng began to arrange the other three people again.

Guo Jin thought silently for a while.

"My father asked his son to go to Liaodong to join the war. During that time, his son and General Yu were together. He felt that General Yu was a pure general and was not very strong, so his son was not worried that he would do something out of place."

Guo Peng thought for a while and felt that what Guo Jin said was not unreasonable.

Among the few generals, Yu Jin has relatively low qualifications. Whether Cao Ren or Zhao Yun or Le Jin, they all participated in Guo Peng before, and only Zhang Liao was the last to participate in Guo Wei Group, so they have never been very high-profile.

In fact, none of the generals have high-profile personalities. On the contrary, compared with some second-tier generals, they are more low-key.

However, some of the second-tier generals are very high-profile and always want to make big news.

Moreover, they were all Guo Peng's old subordinates earlier. They marched under Guo Peng's command. It was not until Guo Peng retreated to the second line that they took the lead and became the Five Tiger Generals by relying on the war to unify the whole country by the Wei Empire.

Compared to Zhao Yun, Cao Ren and Le Jin, Yu Jin and Zhang Liao were actually in a bad situation, and there was no one in the court who was willing to speak for them and run for them. The fact that they were able to reach this point is basically entirely due to Guo Peng's trust.

Yu Jin is actually quite unlucky.

Yu Jin was first recommended to Guo Peng by Bao Xin. In the early days, Bao Xin had a high status in the Guowei Group. He once served as the governor of Yanzhou and was one of the earliest officials of the Guowei Group.

At that time, Yu Jin had a good relationship with him. The two often had contacts, had close relationships, had no secrets between each other, and even had plans to become children and relatives.

However, soon, Guo Peng decided to be king. During the process of Guo Peng becoming king, Xun Yu, Zang Hong and Bao Xin were the three main opposition leaders, and they stood opposite Guo Peng.

Xun Yu and Zang Hong died for this, while Bao Xin was cowardly at Guo Peng because he was afraid at the last moment, so he survived by chance.

Afterwards, although he lost all his wealth and status, he was still alive. His whole family lived outside Luoyang, farming the fields for a living, and did not suffer any further persecution.

It's much better than Xun Yu and Zang Hong.

However, Bao Xin was still very scared. Every day, he was worried that Guo Peng would punish him and kill him. He even learned from Han Fu's attitude back then, so he hid in the toilet and tried to cut his wrist and committed suicide, but was eventually rescued by his family.

Although he was rescued, his suspicion could not be cured.

Finally, in the sixth year of Yande, Bao Xin died of wind and cold with the blessing of severe heart disease.

The Bao family lost Bao Xin and declined further. Now the Bao family can only live on more than 100 acres of thin land. It is difficult for the children in the family to study, and it is not so easy to eat.

Guo Peng has no idea of ​​pension.

It is already a supreme grace to survive for those who are standing in the wrong team. What else do you want?

If the people who stand in the wrong team are forgiven, how should those who stand in the right team be rewarded enough?

However, Yu Jin may have thought of Bao Xin's recommendation and his later love, so he sent someone to send some money, grain, oil, rice, flour, etc. to Bao Xin's family to help them live so that they won't go hungry.
