Traveling through Great Qin: Father Qin Shihuang!
Chapter 296 Anniversary Gift Package
Wang Ben was stunned for a moment.
"Your Majesty, the conscription has already reached this point, what reforms should be made at this time?"
"The widow went to Che'er's mansion today. He was very dissatisfied with my Daqin's forced conscription, and put forward another opinion. After listening to it, the widow thinks it is very reasonable."
Ying Zheng sighed, and then explained the conscription reform proposed by Zhao Che and the changes to the treatment of soldiers.
"Your Majesty, if this happens, the military expenditure of Daqin will be several times higher than before."
Wang Ben frowned. As a general, it should have been a good thing to see that the treatment of his soldiers had improved.
But the question is, can Daqin afford such a heavy consumption?
The increase in military expenditure means that the treasury of Daqin will be consumed more. If the treasury has no money, it can only increase taxes, which in the end will make the burden on the heads of Guizhou even heavier.
"Your Majesty, since the young master can make such a suggestion, he should have come up with a solution, right?"
It is better for Wang Jian to think more thoroughly, the main thing is that he understands Zhao Che, and he is definitely not the kind of person who is aimless.
"That's right, Che'er did come up with a method called the Garrison System!"
Ying Zheng nodded, and explained the system of stationing troops to the two of them.
"The land where the army stationed troops is exempted from taxation, and all of them are used for the consumption of the army. Wouldn't this greatly reduce our burden?"
"This move is very good. In this way, it can make full use of the army's leisure time, and it can also save us transportation consumption. It can be implemented!"
Wang Jian only thought about it for a while, and then approved the feasibility of this troop system.
"Since this is the case, let's go down and convey the will of the widow, and reform our Daqin conscription system. Those who have been recruited before will also be reviewed again!"
"Your Majesty, don't you want to send troops to the Xiongnu this year? Now that the conscription system is changed, it may have a great impact on our plan."
Wang Ben frowned, trying to dissuade Yingzheng, at least it would not be too late to carry out reforms after the Huns were settled.
"Don't worry, the widows on the Huns have their own ideas, you just do what the widows say."
"Here!"
After Ying Zheng said that, Wang Ben didn't dare to have any opinions, so he agreed immediately and helped Wang Jian to leave.
"Father, who is the Zhao Che that His Majesty is talking about? Why do both Father and Your Majesty respect him so much?"
After leaving Xianyang Palace, Wang Ben helped Wang Jian into the carriage, and couldn't wait to ask for Zhao Che's information.
It was not the first time he had heard this name, but he really didn't know anything about Zhao Che.
Moreover, it is not something ordinary people can do to make Ying Zheng directly reform the conscription system by himself.
"Forget it. Your Majesty is about to let the young master show up. I don't have to be so taboo about some things anymore. I'll tell you a little bit."
Wang Jian took a breath. During this period of time, his health was getting worse and worse, as if he was getting old in an instant.
Old people are like this, when the end is approaching, there will always be a sign.
Therefore, Wang Jian also decided to settle the affairs of the Wang family well before his deadline came, and the most important thing was the relationship with Zhao Che.
……
Leaving aside Wang Jian's explanation for the time being, the next day, as soon as Ying Zheng convened a court meeting, he formally announced the reform of the conscription system.
Such a big change obviously caused quite a disturbance in the court.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely unacceptable. If preferential treatment is given to the families of those soldiers, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among others, and there may be some troubles."
As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, someone immediately stood up to oppose the proposal to give preferential treatment to the families of soldiers.
"Why not? My Daqin soldiers threw their lives and blood on the battlefield to protect Daqin's safety. Shouldn't their families be treated preferentially?"
Those military generals in the DPRK are more supportive of this proposal.
After all, those soldiers are their subordinates, so they will naturally think about their subordinates.
"However, how many soldiers are there in Daqin? If all of them are given preferential treatment, how much resources will Daqin have to pay?"
"Hmph, no matter how many things my Great Qin has, isn't that all thanks to the soldiers of Great Qin who exchanged their lives on the battlefield? If those soldiers hadn't paid such a high price, would our Great Qin be as stable as it is now? "
Facing the reasons given by these generals, other people can't find any excuses to object.
Moreover, this time even Wang Ben, who had always existed as a transparent person in the court, stood up uncharacteristically and took the lead in supporting Ying Zheng's suggestion.
In the end, it was Ying Zheng who made the final decision, completely settled the matter, and took the opportunity to implement the system of garrisoning troops.
The court meeting ended, and the decree was quickly conveyed.
And the heads of Guizhou who heard this decree were even more confused. In previous years, Daqin's compulsory conscription might not be able to recruit people. This year, it actually raised the threshold for conscription. If the threshold is not enough, you can't even join the army.
However, after seeing the generous treatment that joining the army can bring, as well as the preferential treatment that can be brought to relatives and family members, the heads of Guizhou immediately understood.
Among other things, the generous military salary alone is a fatal temptation for these poor Guizhou chiefs.
How much do they earn each year by farming?It may be barely enough to survive.
But if he joins the army, the annual military salary will almost catch up with the salary of the officials in the Yamen.
Moreover, if one is unlucky and dies on the battlefield, there will be a generous pension.
At this moment, many people who were lucky not to be taken away by compulsory conscription suddenly became more active.
……
On the other side, Jingyang naturally also received news of the conscription reform.
"It seems that Brother Zheng is indeed a talented and generous monarch, so he agreed to my suggestion so easily."
When Zhao Che got up early in the morning, he heard Maverick's urgent report.
Xiaohu's father was originally taken away by forced conscription, but he returned after Yingzheng's order was issued that day.
Although the remuneration for joining the army is very generous, for Dahu, he still wants to raise Xiaohu first before talking about it.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for accumulatively checking in for ten years, the tenth anniversary gift package has been issued, the system has been upgraded, and the restrictions on the check-in location have been lifted!"
A mechanical sound suddenly sounded in his mind, and Zhao Che was stunned.
It's been ten years!
It's been ten years. Although he has been bound to the system, because the system check-in location is bound to Jingshui, he hasn't gone out for ten years.
But now, the system has finally lifted the restrictions, which means that Zhao Che can wander around without worrying about any restrictions anymore.
"Ten years, do you know how I have spent these ten years? Do you know the system? I hide at home every day and play for fun... Bah, I'm on stage!"
In any case, it is always a good thing to remove the restrictions from the system, not to mention the [-]th anniversary gift package compensation.
"System, open the big gift bag!"
Zhao Che muttered silently in his heart.
"Ding! The [-]th anniversary gift package has been opened. Congratulations to the host for getting the design blueprint of the steam engine, congratulations to the host for getting a complete set of oil extraction equipment, and congratulations for the host getting the blueprint for building a large library!"
"Fuck, System Dad, are you serious?"
"Your Majesty, the conscription has already reached this point, what reforms should be made at this time?"
"The widow went to Che'er's mansion today. He was very dissatisfied with my Daqin's forced conscription, and put forward another opinion. After listening to it, the widow thinks it is very reasonable."
