Officials, not only must help the emperor govern the country, the key is to learn to deal with the emperor's aftermath, to be a qualified official.
"Your Majesty is far-sighted, and I am ashamed." Xun Yu replied quickly, and he really didn't want to continue to dwell on this issue.
What he cares about is the expenditure. After all, this will make the officials and generals of the enemy army risk everything to defend, which will increase the expenditure of funds and materials.
On the contrary, the people of the Han Dynasty will be happy, after all, they understand the importance of the imperial examination, and the fairness of the imperial examination has been further improved.Everyone is on the same starting line, or so it seems.
The army below will be ecstatic, because in this way, all places will inevitably expand their army, and at the same time, they will fight more fiercely.But this also means that there will be more military achievements in the war, and if you are lucky, you can really become a prince or even a king with military achievements.
Let’s just say that this time, a county was picked up for nothing. Do you think this is a military exploit, or is it a victory of official diplomacy later?Even if it is counted as military merit, it feels like it will be cut in half. This point of military merit is divided into 5000 people, how to divide it?
Therefore, the follow-up military affairs are also counted as military exploits. It is not until the start of Enke that a new batch of officials are dispatched to the localities one after another, and then a batch of new officials are promoted to fill Pei County. This period is not over.
It is worth mentioning that, under Xun Yu's suggestion, Liu Tao announced that those dismissed county officials in Pei County could be nominated by the people of the counties, and those who were trustworthy would be retained, and those who were not trusted would be dismissed.
To some extent, the officials were retained so that the functions of the government would not completely collapse.
"How are the preparations for the expansion of the army going?" Liu Tao's most critical issue now is the expansion of recruitment.
"Already prepared, the summer harvest is good. At the same time, I also bought a batch of grain in Yangzhou and Xuzhou. The former Xu Han chief minister, Mi Zhu, donated all the grain stored in the family, but the minister did not collect it, but bought it at the market price. . Judging from the current grain reserves, it is absolutely possible to expand the enrollment by 3 people." Xun Yu replied.
Strictly speaking, it would be fine to expand the enrollment by 4 people, but... everyone understands the truth.
The main reason is the training intensity required by Liu Tao and the excessive food consumption. Otherwise, according to other people's standards, it would not be a problem to expand the enrollment by 20 or [-].
3000 people fight against tens of thousands of people, not to mention the blessing of magic, even if there is no magic, it is no problem to fight against 2 people.
Regardless of physique or equipment, they are truly elite, which can be said to be a weakened version of the trapped camp.Liu Tao also intends to establish a military academy for generals who have made meritorious service or performed well in the army to come here to study for a period of time before being promoted, which can be regarded as an upgraded version of Lantai's reading.
At that time, Gao Shun will definitely join as an instructor. This kind of general who is good at training troops is a scarce resource.
"In this way, this expansion of enrollment will mainly focus on 3 people, and another 5000 people will be added to the various ministries. Some veterans who have served for more than five years have been transferred to the county lieutenants and captains of the counties one after another..." Liu Tao thought for a while , "At the same time, unite the soldiers under the command of the county captains and captains of the counties to form an armed police force."
"Your Majesty, how can there be someone who specifically weakens the fighting power of one's own army?" Xun Yu couldn't figure it out. If he mixed it with water like this, the fighting power of the whole army would decline.Besides, what the hell is that armed police team? How long has His Majesty been planning this?
This thing is definitely not a temporary idea, Xun Yu is 100% sure, Liu Tao has been thinking about this for a long time.
"Now we are separating the military from the government, but the existence of the teams under the command of the county captains and captains is very embarrassing." Liu Tao reminded, "They are fixed garrisons, but they will not be easily transferred to join the army..."
It cannot go out with the army, but it is essentially an army. Since the military and government are to be separated, they cannot be put under the control of the local county magistrate and prefect.
"So that's how it is. If another army is established directly under the Ministry of War, this problem will be solved!" Guo Jia was the first to react and felt that this was indeed a good solution.
"Moreover, in this expansion of the army, in order to allow the team to quickly form combat power, except for the three or four main forces, new recruits must be integrated into each army. Many of them are in their thirties or even 40 years old.
Normally, he is still young, but his physical condition has begun to decline.In addition, there are some other reasons... They can no longer be allowed to participate in the war, and the armed police force is used to resettle them. "Liu Tao explained.
Liu Tao didn't dare to take the initiative to say it. The reason is probably very private, and it might even shake the whole army, right?The two of them are not fools, there is really no need for Liu Tao to make it so clear.
Whether this reason will cause any problems for these soldiers after a period of time, of course they will think of this.
They probably also have impressions of the soldiers who followed Liu Tao when he conquered the world.A lot of tough battles were fought, and many soldiers almost died on the battlefield several times, but they were rescued by Liu Tao with magic.
Because they can be rescued even with a single breath, the soldiers became more and more courageous as they fought. In a short period of time, they became elites who were not afraid of death from the new soldiers who had just joined the army.
Also, how could it be possible that there is no price at all... But in a situation where he was destined to die, he can survive so many times, and he has actually earned it.This part of the soldiers, the lowest has been mixed into the team rate, commanding 50 soldiers.Many have become local county lieutenants, captains... and some have become military marquis, or even school lieutenants.
Before joining the army, he was just an ordinary citizen, but now he has become a position that many people will never be able to achieve in their lifetime.
"You are all smart people, there are some things, don't say it casually." Liu Tao reminded.
"Abiding by the order!" The two quickly replied. Although this matter will not shake the foundation of the country, it may make the soldiers feel a little scrupulous when they fight, thus reducing their combat effectiveness.
"The nature of the armed police is the same as that of thieves. They are mainly responsible for arresting thieves who gather people to riot with weapons, or occupy mountains as kings, or set up robbers. Even local civil unrest, the armed police are responsible for suppressing them.
In the future, the army can only go abroad and will not participate in domestic military operations.Unless, the thieves clearly establish a country, proclaim themselves king or emperor, so that they can dispatch troops to suppress it. "Liu Tao also slightly stipulated the powers of the armed police.
That is to say, the armed police are used internally and the army is used externally. It is even more difficult for the army to intervene in local politics; and the county magistrate and prefect cannot directly mobilize the armed police team.
In this way, the separation of the military and the government can be regarded as a real implementation... In other words, when the concept of the separation of the military and the government was proposed, Liu Tao already had the idea of forming an armed police?
Xun Yu secretly sighed, he must also thank Liu Tao for not killing him, right?
Chapter 556 Enke Begins
With the beginning of the summer harvest, the prefectures and counties under the Han Dynasty also began to recruit troops according to the population.
Places with a small population collect less, and places with a large population collect more.The collection standard is between 25 and [-] years old. Priority is given to recruiting males with brothers in their families, preferably without bad records.
It was the first time for the governors of the states to see such harsh conditions for conscription. Fortunately, they were only recruited first, not necessarily.After the imperial decree arrived at the place, it took the states about a month to recruit soldiers one after another.
They didn't break up, but they were recruited by any state, so they went to report to the army.
If they are broken up, it means that these soldiers need to be provided with food all the way, which is a lot of money.At the same time, in the words of this era, it is precisely because he is a child of this state that when others come in, he will defend without hesitation.
After all, their family members are right behind them, if they escape, then their family members and clan will be in bad luck!
In the Zhenbei and Zhendong departments, the soldiers under General Si'an's Department also began to select soldiers over 35 years old and give priority to soldiers over 40 years old, and put them in the localities as county lieutenants or captains.
If the conditions are not enough, you can be the captain or team leader. Those over the age of 40 will be transferred to the local area first, and those under the age of 40 will be selected if the number is not enough.In the future, to a certain extent, soldiers will be recruited every five years, and at the same time, soldiers who are 40 years old will be discharged one after another.
Those who perform well are recommended to serve as bandits or armed police officers in local areas.Those who behaved mediocrely at least saved enough military pay to buy some land and marry a daughter-in-law after returning home.
You can also form a team to do some business in escort bureaus. Recently, business has become active, and there is a shortage of manpower for commodity escorts.
"Your Majesty wants to hide soldiers from the people..." Zhu Jun lamented that if this goes on year after year, most of the adult men in the country may have the experience of serving in the army.If something happens in the future, you only need to give an order, and immediately pull up a team of hundreds of thousands.
At the same time, soldiers who have served in the military return to their hometowns and have children. There is a high probability that they will pass on what they have learned.Children grow up in such an environment, and when they grow up, they will be high-quality soldiers.
At that time, the "Taishan soldiers" and "Danyang soldiers" will not be so prominent.
"The main reason is that the team is young and dares to fight and kill, but it needs to be retrained every five years." Lu Zhi said with emotion.
He knew very well that Zhu Jun was very happy. After all, with the establishment of the armed police, the Ministry of War was equivalent to having another team to control.The main thing is that this is a team that the Ministry of War can directly mobilize!
"No, no, Your Majesty said, excellent trilogy, their soldiers don't retire until they are 40 years old. Ordinary trilogy, enlisted in the army for two years of training, and they are almost ready to fight at the age of 20. All teams and villages are veterans. Xin, after a few battles, he will soon become an elite." Zhu Jun shook his head and explained to Lu Zhi.
There will be a military academy in the future to further strengthen the military literacy of the officers. As long as they are not overwhelmed by obvious strength, or make some major tactical mistakes, even without his spells, each department can still become the strongest army in the world!
Lu Zhi felt that it was understandable that the elite troops were treated differently, and he felt a little relieved.He was really worried, if the soldiers below were mainly recruits, would it really be okay to go to the battlefield?
It's good that the wind is going smoothly, but if it is a hard battle, there may be problems.
That is to say, Liu Tao didn't know that they were discussing these things, otherwise he would say, and follow-up thoughts would follow.It is necessary to appoint some 'supervisors' to specialize in ideological education or something...
It's just that this kind of supervising army must have a certain degree of cultural accomplishment and eloquence.Unfortunately, the number of soldiers on his side has now been expanded, and there is no shortage of soldiers at the beginning.However, the issue of officials will not be supplemented until after Enke has finished the examination.
Whether or not we can get enough officials to fill the localities is another matter.It's hard for Liu Tao to talk about the issue of supervising the army. Anyway, it's not urgent.
