Gongsun Yang's words echoed in his chest, and Sun Boling slowly closed his eyes.

Reduce the number of Wei soldiers, deprive the descendants of Wei soldiers, and establish a withdrawal mechanism for Wei soldiers...

Every strategy Gongsun Yang just said was like a sharp blade piercing the corruption in the sick body of Wei Wuzu.

If everything can be carried out smoothly according to Gongsun Yang's vision, then the soldiers of Wei may not be unable to show their former glory.

However, with the implementation of each strategy, the words on it, like cutting flesh and bones, will inevitably cause an uproar.

Silently opening his eyes and looking at Gongsun Yang standing in front of him, Sun Boling couldn't help but have mixed feelings in his heart.

During the years when he worked with Qin Dong, Sun Boling already had a deep understanding of Gongsun Yang, and he knew that almost nothing could stop the opponent's will to move forward.

But he really couldn't bear to see Gongsun Yang go on like this. The road ahead was undoubtedly a road full of thorns.

"Brother Yang, do you understand what kind of turmoil it will cause in the Wei government and the public if these strategies of yours are leaked?"

The words Sun Boling asked made Gongsun Yang look somewhat ugly, but in an instant a smile appeared in his eyes.

In Sun Boling's view, that smile was both open-minded and full of determination.

"Bo Ling, Yang Yang comes from the Weiguo family. Although it is only a side branch, it is not difficult to live a wealthy life."

"It's just that I have never thought about living that kind of life. A man is born between heaven and earth, and he must make a difference."

"With this belief in my heart, I left my mother country, Weiguo, and came to Wei, the country that attracted the attention of scholars all over the world."

"After five years of studying in the prime minister's office and five years of local experience, I finally made it to the imperial court of Wei."

When the past memories and ambitions resurfaced in his mind, Gongsun Yang's eyes were filled with only determination.

"Bo Ling, no matter how difficult and dangerous the road is, no matter how dense the thorns ahead are, Gongsun Yang is willing to keep going."

"Even if there is only Gongsun Yang..."

"No, Brother Yang, you are not alone."

Gongsun Yang's voice gradually became a little lonely at the end. Before he could finish speaking, Sun Boling's words appeared in his ears behind him.

Looking back, he saw a face full of smiles, just like when the two first met in the small farmyard of Yueyang, Qin Dong.

"Brother Yang, we hit it off right away, and it's even more pleasant to work together in Qindong."

"Brother Yang Yang has great ambitions this time. Although Bo Ling is not talented, he is willing to help Brother Yang. I wonder if Brother Yang is willing to work with Bo Ling."

While Sun Boling expressed his feelings, he slowly extended his right hand towards Gongsun Yang.

Looking at the palms appearing in his field of vision and the smiling face opposite him, Gongsun Yang also handed over his hands without hesitation.

At the moment when two powerful palms met, Gongsun Yang and Sun Boling, two people who held a decisive position in the Wei court, chose to stand together.

Next, the two people, whose hearts had been fused together, chose to return to their respective cases.

The implementation of a law does not just rely on the imagination of Gongsun Yang or Sun Boling. The interests and benefits involved are far beyond description.

In addition to Gongsun Yang's previous strategy for Wei Wuzu, Sun Boling also began to slowly express his views on the matter.

In Sun Boling's view, Gongsun Yang's choice to reduce the number of Wei soldiers was undoubtedly correct. Even with Wei's current strong national power, it would be very difficult to support such a large army.

However, it is too harsh to reduce the establishment by 70,000 in just one sentence. It is better to reduce it step by step step by step.

The first people to be reduced should be those who are old and infirm. They obviously no longer meet the standards set by Wei Wuzu and cannot complete the arduous tasks that Wei Wuzu should undertake.

If these can be eliminated from the Wei soldiers, it will undoubtedly have extremely positive significance for the recovery of the Wei soldiers' combat effectiveness, and it can also open a breakthrough for the reform of the Wei soldiers.

Next, Sun Boling could use his identity as a Sima to declare a war among the Wei soldiers, thus successfully reducing the number of Wei soldiers and increasing their combat effectiveness.

In addition to the reduction in the number of Wei soldiers from the beginning to the current step-by-step process, Sun Boling also believed that the changes carried out by Wei soldiers should not only reduce the number of soldiers.

Sun Boling proposed that we could follow the practices of Wu Qi, the founder of Wei's military forces, in Xihe County in the past, and give more generous rewards to the outstanding ones among Wei's military soldiers.

Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men.

Since Wu Qi in the past was able to train a commoner into a powerful army with generous rewards, why can't the two people today fail to restore the glory of Wei Wuzu to his former glory?

The ideas put forward by Sun Boling are actually consistent with the reforms that Gongsun Yang will carry out in the Wei army.

Through these years of study and experience in the Prime Minister's Mansion and local areas, Gongsun Yang believed that Wei's investment in the army was undoubtedly among the best among the princes in the world.

This is due to the achievements of Li Kui, the Prime Minister of Wei who presided over the reform, and the legacy of the military training of Wu Qi, the former governor of Xihe County.

The implementation of the land grant system initially solved the worries of the Wei soldiers. The strong national power brought by Li Kui's reform gave the Wei soldiers generous treatment, and the military strategist Wu Qi injected fierce fighting spirit into the army.

This is the Wei army that used to dominate the world without any success, and it is also the illustrious hero who made Wei the hegemon.

It's a pity that no matter how powerful the army is, it will gradually decline. Even if it is as sharp as the Wei soldiers, it has lost its former edge due to various factors.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What Gongsun Yang wants to do this time under the orders of Wei Marquis Wei Feng is to inject a stream of fresh blood into the Wei soldiers and even the entire Wei army, so that the power in the hands of Wei

The sharp sword once again emitted a chilling light.

This is what Gongsun Yang wants to do this time, and this is why he wants to implement a military merit system among the Wei army.

In fact, the essence of the military merit system is no different from the heavy rewards for meritorious service advocated by Wu Qi in the past, but it is more systematic and complete than what Wu Qi once did.

How the Qin army in the previous life was able to frighten the princes of the world was because it relied on the system of military merit and nobility to stimulate the soldiers' unlimited desire for victory and title.

War is the way for Qin soldiers to get rich; title is the key to changing their lives.

How can a sharp sword that has been tempered by generations of such education not show its courage to compete with anyone in the world?

Swing your sword to cut through the floating clouds, and all the princes will come to the west.

The Qin army, forged by the military merit system, was the sharpest long sword in the hands of all Qin kings.

…

"Drive, drive, drive..."

The loud sounds of urging horses together with the neighing of Xilulu's horses pulled Sun Boling out of the words he had just talked with Gongsun Yang.

Stretching out his right hand, he gently opened the side curtain of the carriage and let the prosperity of Anyi outside the carriage enter his eyes.

It was only then that Sun Boling suddenly realized that he had walked out of the Situ Mansion and was on the way back.

Thinking back to the state of mind when I arrived at Situ Mansion not long ago, I was full of expectations and imagination for meeting my old friends again.

Looking at the scene lingering in his mind at this moment, it was full of Gongsun Yang's views on this reform of the military merit system.

Recalling Gongsun Yang, who was no different from Qin Dong in the past, a high-spirited figure lingered in front of me for a long time.

As he thought about it, a smile quietly appeared on Sun Boling's face, and at the same time a murmur appeared on his lips.

"Brother Yang, brother Yang..."

Accompanied by this somewhat complicated and inexplicable self-talk, and the clatter of horse hooves ahead, Sun Boling returned to his mansion as he walked all the way.

A moment later, when he stepped into the mansion with the three characters "Sima Mansion" written on it, Sun Boling walked straight to the study in the backyard without stopping at all.

When he sat down behind a table, Sun Boling gently took a roll of bamboo slips and laid it flat in front of him.

After a brief thought, I picked up the ink pen placed aside and walked around. The scene of today's conversation with Gongsun Yang fell on the bamboo slips.

Each seal character embodies not only Gongsun Yang's views on the changes in Wei's soldiers, but also Sun Boling's plan to improve the combat effectiveness of Wei's soldiers;

The pieces of bamboo slips represent not only Gongsun Yang's expectation that this military merit system will bring the Wei army's combat power to a higher level, but also Sun Boling's imagination about the future achievements of the Wei army.

It can be said that although the scroll of bamboo slips is small, it embodies the wisdom of Gongsun Yang and Sun Boling.

The ink pen continued to write on the bamboo slips, and time flowed by minute by second. By the time Sun Boling put down the pen, only patches of red remained on the sky outside the study.

He carefully dried the ink on the bamboo slips. Sun Boling, who had been writing for an unknown amount of time, was not tired at all, but felt infinitely happy in his heart.

Just at this moment, a report appeared in front of Sun Boling.

"Report to Sima, the general has arrived."

Upon hearing the news reported by the waiter in front of him, Sun Boling was so happy that his face showed a look of surprise.

"Please."

"Junior brother, don't be too polite, I'm already here."

Although the figure had not yet arrived, the voice had already been heard, and a few breaths later a majestic figure appeared in front of Sun Boling.

This person is not Sun Boling's senior brother, but who is Pang Juan, the current general of Wei?

Seeing his senior brother striding up to him, Sun Boling's face was even more joyful.

I saw Sun Boling hurriedly stood up from behind a few cases and walked quickly in front of the other party, "Boling, I have met senior brother."

"Berling doesn't have to be polite."

With a strong physique honed over many years on the battlefield, Pang Juan stopped Sun Boling from bowing down in just one move.

With a bright smile on his face, he heard Pang Juan say loudly: "Originally, I should have come to visit you a long time ago. I heard that you have not been in charge of Sima for a long time and you are really busy with official duties, so I don't have the nerve to bother you."

"It just so happens that I got a sword, and today I want to use this sword to visit you, so that our brothers and sisters can get close to each other."

After saying these words, a personal guard following Pang Juan immediately appeared in front of the two men holding a sword hilt.

Looking at the sword that was full of ancient style, and looking at the senior brother in front of him who was still as close as before, the smile on Sun Boling's face became even brighter.

"This is because Bo Ling is treating senior brother lightly."
