Chapter 2399: Balance with balance(2/2)

Of course, this is also because before the Han Dynasty, the Zhou Dynasty in China was similar to the system of the inflated position of the emperor without real power, and the princes ruled one side. Therefore, even in the Han Dynasty, although the emperor abandoned the feudal system of the emperor and adopted the county system, it was limited to the historical perspective and the road of reform could not go too far.

Therefore, the issue of military power is not something that can be solved by just a few words or a few people. Whether it is the military supervision system or the political commissar system, in the era when cold weapons and communication are inconvenient, it directly points to a very difficult problem, which is the battlefield command of the army.

The military supervisor or political commissar system is to control the army more effectively, but such a system will often have a negative effect in the later stages. In the impression of later generations, those sarcastic eunuchs and military supervisors will not mention them. Just talking about the political commissar like Ula, they are often not a good image.

In history, the military supervisors started from the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, and then extended to later generations. They have never been cut off and have always been inherited and transformed. The eunuchs and military supervisors have obviously the most famous ones, but the other two military supervisor models are not much better.

Military supervision is not what people think of as "surveillance the army and generals". Surveillance of the army and generals are one of the military power and duties, but military power and duties are not just about monitoring the army.

What is more important is supervision, inspection, control, etc. As for individual monitoring, it is mostly when the world moves around, which is extremely important.

So does Fei Qian have no military supervision system now? Some are also, and they belong to civil servants and military supervision.

Military officers are not advisable to supervise the army, this is something that was proven in the Former Qin Dynasty.

Therefore, most of them are civil servants and military supervisors now.

That is, when the generals led their troops to fight, they appointed a civil servant to be in charge of important military activities such as transportation supplies, official allocation, merit statistics, etc., and were responsible for the delivery of documents from the army and the central government. The official rank was generally lower than that of the chief generals of each army, just like being by Zhao Yun, who was originally Sima Yi, but now Xinpi.

Civil officials and military supervision are one of the means to balance the civil and military affairs within the country and adjust the power between ministers and emperors, but this type of military supervision is most likely to have two situations.

One is an internal struggle caused by the discord between civil and military affairs. Since it belongs to two systems, no one can forcefully surrender to each other. The final outcome of this internal struggle is often the two sides pull each other's back, fight for power and profit, and even create defeat in order to prove the other party's strategic mistakes.

Even serious incidents of overcoming the rules and planning to kill them...

Another disadvantage is that the stage of military generals is on the frontier, while the core of civil servants is in the capital. Civil servants are often not only military supervisors, but also the mission of political struggle in the court, and regard military behavior as an important bargaining chip for internal political struggles in the court. Civil servants use military supervision system to control military military power, and rely on the army in their hands to fight against political enemies and even the emperor. This behavior of completely politicizing military affairs is even more conceivable. Such examples have existed in all dynasties, with the most in the Song Dynasty!

Because I saw that civil officials were unreliable, most of the military supervisors in the Ming Dynasty used eunuchs, but it was obvious that the military supervisors in the Ming Dynasty caused the most tragedies...

Why have a military supervisor?

That is because since ancient times, very few people were both good generals and loyal to the country. Therefore, the emperor had no choice but to use those talented but some moral problems to try to use those loyal to the country to restrict these warlike generals, so that the army will not become a personal property of an individual, but belong to the country.

Fei Qian stood in front of the lobby of the martial arts lecture hall, looking up with his hands behind his back.

Why can't we consider the problem from a different perspective?
