Chen Ying had already been mentally prepared for the performance of the Twelve Guards.After all, man is a lazy animal. Once life is too comfortable, he will lose his aggressiveness.

For example, Lao Cheng has been sedentary for a long time, and his weight has increased by [-] catties in just five years.

Chen Ying looked at the soldiers and said angrily: "You can see clearly that this is the most elite army of the Twelve Guards of the Tang Dynasty, the absolute force guarding the pass. Tell me, can you still fight?"

Hearing Chen Ying's words, the leading generals, including Yu Chi Gong and Feng Li, all bowed their heads and remained silent.

"This general is very disappointed!" Chen Ying looked at the generals and shouted, "Can such an army protect the folks in Guanzhong? Is it wrong to dismiss the old and the weak?"

Xue Wanche didn't worry about it at this time, but bit the bullet and said: "General Mingjian, the final general is not disagreeing with the abolition of the old and weak, but how to abolish it. The court must come up with a one-way plan. It can't be just a paper order. Fuck them!"

The generals also followed suit.

After all, in this era, there are no complete military retirement regulations for future generations, and there is no so-called resettlement fee for veterans.Once the soldiers are too old, weak, or disabled, and no longer go to the battlefield, if they are generally dismissed, they will only be issued a sum of money.According to the distance of the soldiers' hometown, the imperial court will give one or several entanglements.

By the time I get home from all these trips, there is basically nothing left.

Therefore, when some soldiers without land and family members heard that the troops were going to be disbanded, they were immediately frightened and at a loss.

In fact, Chen Ying had been prepared for a long time. Chen Ying once participated in large-scale domestic forums and started a heated discussion on the real reason for the collapse of the Ming Dynasty.Netizens put forward "natural disaster theory", "man-made disaster theory" about the demise of the Ming Dynasty, as well as "the theory that the Donglin Party harmed the country", "the theory that traitors betrayed the country"...etc.

However, Chen Ying agreed with Huang Renyu's point of view. Huang Renyu believed that an important reason for the fall of the Ming Dynasty was financial bankruptcy, and the reason for financial bankruptcy was that the state policy in the early Ming Dynasty regressed greatly, and the government did not allow more responsibilities, but only relied on the countryside to take care of themselves. , and thus failed to obtain a powerful fiscal and taxation machine, external and internal troubles, as well as natural disasters, this is how the country perished.

In the Ming Dynasty, it died of carelessness.

According to the national policy of the Ming Dynasty, officials close to the people are not allowed to disturb the countryside, and are not even allowed to leave the county.That is to say, under the county seat, almost anarchic organizations are dealt with, and all are governed by the gentry and local clans.

A teacher who does not forget the past life.

Is the reason for the demise in the history of the Tang Dynasty really the scourge of the feudal town?

Of course, it is a fact that the imperial court did not control the local area strictly. In fact, during the more serious crisis, the imperial court did not carry out detailed control of the local area from the beginning to the end.

The aristocratic families can be exempted from taxes, but the imperial court requires taxes to maintain the country's operations.However, after the financial crisis, Datang no longer had the land and financial resources to support the more than [-] soldiers in Guanzhong during the Tang Xuanzong period.

Under such circumstances, Tang Xuanzong turned his ideas on the naturalized Hu people outside the pass, because the Hu people are all soldiers, do not need training, and do not need food and fodder. Nature, so Datang turned from prosperity to decline.

Chen Ying insisted that Datang should add an effective management system.Just like the pilot project he did in Lingzhou at the beginning, the Baojia system was established so that the imperial court could directly manage the local Baojia.

Use retired veterans to act as armor chiefs, security chiefs or town mayors.

Usually, the joint insurance company is responsible for the security of the village.Once needed, military mobilization forces can be quickly formed.

Although these old soldiers are not physically fit to support strenuous exercise, they have rich combat experience, and what's even more rare is their incomparable love for Datang.

Chen Ying plans to implement the Baojia system. From the beginning of the county, ten households will be set up with Jiazhang, ten Jiabao will be set up with Baozhang, and ten Baojia will be set up with a town chief.

Ordinary soldiers can serve as armor commanders after retiring from the army and enjoy the job field of [-] acres of land.

Officers at the team leader and team level can act as security chiefs.Enjoy the treatment of [-] acres of land, and enjoy the treatment of the imperial court from the ninth rank to the rank of accompanying captain.

The town mayor needs a retired military officer of the brigade rate or the rank of a lieutenant to serve as a retired officer, distribute [-] acres of land, and enjoy the treatment of the nine-rank Renyong school lieutenant of the imperial court.

For the prefectures and counties that established the Baojia system, Bian prefectures were also given priority.Outside the customs first.Taking a county with [-] households as an example, it would require [-] Jia chiefs, [-] Bao chiefs, and [-] town chiefs.

If the combination of the front and back is adopted, then seven or eight hundred retired soldiers can be arranged in full.

Looking at the regulations on the retirement system issued by Chen Ying, Yu Chigong said excitedly: "If [-] old and weak people are abolished, hundreds of counties will be needed to resettle them (there are also lower counties, less than [-] households). Are there so many counties? "

Chen Ying laughed loudly and said, "The Anxi Protectorate has 150 prefectures and more than [-] counties, which are enough for resettlement. Moreover, the Baojia where I am located, the general can promise that the Chief Jia will get three main rooms and four side rooms at the last time." , and all the fields in Dingkou, the chief security officer can get four main rooms and five side rooms, and the town mayor can get a house with five main rooms and six side rooms!"

Feng Li laughed loudly and said, "The last general wants to retire!"

Chen Ying said solemnly: "This disbandment is based on the principle of voluntary resignation. The same level can be given priority. If you don't retire, you will carry out high-intensity training in the future. There will be an assessment every ten days. Within a month, there will be a three-day assessment. , and all the last ones, they must be forced to retire!"

Xue Wanche pondered: "The skills are not as good as others, and no one can blame others!"

Chen Ying was also immigrating abroad in a disguised form at this time. After all, almost [-]% of the Twelve Guards were from Guanzhong. , migrated out without knowing it.

……

Huai'an Palace in Chang'an City.A group of descendants of the Li family's clan surrounded Li Shentong and said cursingly: "According to Fang Xuanling's plan, our clan will all reduce the title and salary."

Another disciple of the clan also said: "No matter what, we are also His Majesty's close relatives. How can there be any reason for plotting against our own family?"

Li Xiaochang, Prince of Yi'an County, said with a sneer, "Prince Zhao County is definitely fine!"

Li Shentong was depressed.

"King Zhao is the one with the highest military exploits in our clan, how could he be reduced in title?"

Li Xiaochang vowed: "The current emperor sitting in the Xiande Hall has never been a character who cares about family affection. How do you know that King Zhaojun can escape this? Don't forget, everyone, in front of the Xuanwu Gate , the blood is still wet!"

Chapter No.16 A big crisis is always formed by the concentration of multiple disadvantages

Chapter No.16 Great crises are always formed by the concentration of multiple factors

Taiji Palace, Xiande Hall Li Jiancheng dragged Zhaojun Wang Li Xiaogong to the table.

Li Xiaogong was polite, seeing Li Jiancheng's sincere attitude, he had to sit down with Li Jiancheng.

Li Jiancheng looked at Li Xiaogong and said: "King Zhao Jun, move to Hejian Junwang, this is to return what my father owes to you. Since I am in charge, I must pay you justice."

Li Xiaogong looked at Li Jiancheng and nodded with a smile.

In the Tang Dynasty, Zhaojun was Zhaozhou, which had jurisdiction over eight counties including Pingji, Luancheng, Yuanshi, Yingtao, Zanhuang, Baixiang, Lincheng and Zhaoqing.However, Hejian County has twelve counties under its jurisdiction. No matter the population or the territory under its jurisdiction, Zhao County is far inferior to Hejian County.

Li Jiancheng thought for a while and said: "This time, I originally wanted to swap your fiefdom with Uncle Huai'an, but I was afraid that Uncle Huai'an would go to father and emperor to make trouble, so I made a compromise. I will come down. You will always bring the soldiers, but right now, I have other things to send you."

Li Xiaogong waved his hands and said: "I don't know anything except leading soldiers. Being an official in the court, I must make a joke!"

Li Jiancheng said solemnly: "Don't be afraid, what I mean is that you will be the secretary of Honglu Temple, and you will also be in charge of General Zuo Xiaowei, and take over the Jingzhao military power in Zheng Rentai's hands."

Li Xiaogong was startled.

Li Jiancheng pondered: "I plan to disarm, what's your attitude towards this?"

Li Xiaogong smiled and said: "Actually, this minister is about to talk about this matter. Soldiers are more expensive than elite soldiers. Li Yaoshi thinks that the current army of the Tang Dynasty is not too small, but too much."

Li Jiancheng responded little by little: "Oh?"

"Three days ago, General Chen organized the twelfth army for emergency training. Your Majesty must have heard about it!" Li Xiaogong said with a wry smile: "In our Tang Dynasty, there are too many troops that cannot be fought, and the troops that can fight tough battles can be pulled out. , too few. If you want to train troops, you have to train like the Anxi Army, Dingyuan Army, and the Four Guards of the East Palace. If you want to defeat the Turks, the army must be able to run and fight. An unbeatable army is like the current Twelve Guards , there are nearly 20 troops on the surface, but the number of soldiers capable of fighting does not exceed 5."

Li Jiancheng nodded repeatedly and said, "Very good! Very good! Right now, I need your help.

Li Xiaogong got up and bowed: "They are all my brothers, your majesty is welcome, just give orders!"

Li Jiancheng sighed and said, "It's not humane to do so, I can only wrong you!"
