Chapter 409: Talents Gather in Xi'an
Zhu Di is really curious, he has thought of many ways to buy the subordinates of the second king, but the problem is that their soldiers and horses came from afar, and their relatives and industries are not in Xi'an, so they directly give them land, and many various benefits, let them follow Zhu Yunwen...... It's too difficult.
But the reality is ten days of hard work, and these people have changed their minds, and even Zhu Di feels a little magical.
"In fact, we are just talking, reasoning with them, talking about how hateful Zhu Yunwen is, how greedy the civil servants who oppose the change of the law are, and how much ...... the benefits of the change are."
Zhu Di glanced at Wei Cong, "So it works?" ”
"Of course...... It doesn't work! ”
Zhu Di almost flashed his waist, he is worthy of being a commodity from Jiming Mountain, how can he be virtuous with Liu Chun?
"It doesn't matter what kind of fart you have? Fun with this king, right? ”
Seeing that Zhu Di was angry, Wei Cong didn't dare to be presumptuous, and hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, we started doing this, but it had little effect. Later, we changed our thinking, and we asked the big guy why he became the third guard of the palace. ”
"Oh? What do they say? ”
Wei Cong said: "Lord Wang, one-third of these people are children of military families, their parents, and even their ancestors, have all served in the army to fight, and many relatives have died in the past few decades. They want to change their status, but they are limited by their household registration. It can never be changed, and it can only continue to fight, with no end in sight. ”
"There are also some people who come from poor backgrounds, and the so-called good men are not soldiers, and they are good iron and do not nail. The northwest was already barren, and although the first emperor granted land according to households, the implementation was far inferior to that of the Central Plains. Many people do not have land. He was also oppressed by the local powerful landlords, and had no choice but to join the army and eat a mouthful. ”
"Of course, there are still many Jiangyang thieves in the army, if you ask carefully, in fact, the big guys are also full of bitterness...... After joining the army, their lives were not easy. Every time there is a war, there is a capture, it is the one from above who picks it first, and when it falls into their hands, there is not much left. In addition, military salaries were deducted, and they were beaten and scolded at will...... Moreover, many soldiers were also taken by the hundreds of households above and served closely...... Yes, some people are sick and don't dare to talk about it for fear of being laughed at! ”
Zhu Di listened with a dark face, can he not be clear about these shortcomings in the army! Speaking of which, the situation in Beiping has also improved after the implementation of the military tun.
At least many soldiers have a head start, no longer fighting, and there are still hundreds of acres of land waiting for them, so that they can live a comfortable life in peace and stability......
"The root cause of the disease has been found, how did you prescribe the right medicine?"
Wei Cong said with a smile: "First of all, I want to tell you that the core of the reform is Juntian, and it is necessary to deal with the landlords who oppress them, and distribute the occupied land to ordinary people, so as to realize the real Juntian." In addition, the law change requires the abolition of military households and the conversion of military recruitment...... In addition, it is necessary to strictly enforce discipline in changing the law, and generals are not allowed to bully soldiers for no reason. By the way, there is also all the food and salary, which must be given to every soldier, and make money with his head, who dares to deduct a child, and give birth to a child! ”
Wei Cong kept talking, and Zhu Di laughed when he heard it, "Well, it's indeed the right medicine!" Are they all convinced? ”
Wei Cong said: "It can only be said that there are still people who have doubts, but most of the soldiers are willing to follow the prince, and the rest depends on how the prince leads by example." If they find out that they have been deceived, they are afraid that they will despise the prince even more! That's when the trouble is. Wei Cong's voice became lower and lower......
Zhu Di couldn't help but take a breath...... In fact, anyone can draw flatbread, the question is whether you can stick to it! For example, the leaders of the peasant uprisings in the past dynasties, before the incident, told the people very well, Gou is rich and noble, do not forget each other. It is said that the land is exempted from military service, and that the people in the world plough together, have the same clothes and wear, and have the same money...... But after a real victory, they become arrogant and greedy for pleasure, and their former brothers are trampled under their feet, and they become more greedy and shameless than the officials.
What will happen to such a person, the history is written clearly.
In fact, if you compare it, you will find that Zhu Yuanzhang is also the leader of the peasant uprising, and he is also the kind of person who can rarely lead by example, even if he is the emperor, he also thinks about the people and starts from the beginning...... So Zhu Yuanzhang was able to establish a prosperous and prosperous Ming Dynasty!
And this time, it actually put forward higher requirements for Zhu Di.
Do you want to defeat the strong with the weak, do you want to achieve victory in Jingjing?
Then you have to be more thorough than your father, and completely promote the change, without a trace of discount.
Only in this way can you laugh at the end.
Zhu Di suddenly felt that there was a chill in his back, grandma's, don't you be calculated again, right? Not to mention, this style of acting is too similar to Liu Chun's routine! He dug a pit and let himself jump in!
The more Zhu Di thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, the Royal Bank was not like this back then, he watched coldly, and laughed at his father for being fooled...... I didn't expect that a few years later, I fell into a bigger trap!
Yoo Chun!
You're waiting for the king!
We have to settle the score!
Zhu Di gritted his teeth, but before that, he still had something to do, that is, he couldn't let the soldiers down...... Now that you have promised, you must do what you say.
Zhu Di pondered for a long time and came up with a solution.
He immediately asked Wei Cong to lead the way and personally went to meet the soldiers of the two vassal kings...... Zhu Di has been naughty and mischievous since he was a child, and when he grew up, he was in the army for a long time, he did not have the elegance of the royal family, but he was a ruffian, but he had such a temperament and an appetite for soldiers.
He was more recognized by the soldiers than Wei Cong.
"Brethren, this king first promulgates a reform...... For each of your hundred households, select ten honest and reliable men, and they will receive their salaries, and then divide them among you. From now on, hundreds of households, thousands of households, the commander will not touch the military salary. In addition to the military rations, there is also a sum of money, and they must tell the brothers how much they eat and drink every day, and let everyone know where the money is spent. ”
"Fighting with my head, I Zhu Di can't let the big guy eat big fish and meat, but I Zhu Di wants everyone to eat enough and eat well! How to spend this vegetable money, everyone has the final say, you can also raise some chickens and ducks, and eat a good meal every three or five days...... All in all, if you still have any ideas, just tell the people arranged by this king, as long as it is reasonable, you will definitely do it! ”
Bypassing the generals, distributing food and salary, and giving some vegetable money, this trick is not new, Liu Chun's steel factory does this, and Zhu Di is also very clear.
But it was the first time in the army, especially when it was given vegetable money...... To be honest, money is very limited, and Zhu Di didn't think about how good the effect would be.
However, when it is actually implemented, it can be clearly felt that the soldiers are very different from before.
That's right!
In the past, he was a soldier who ate food and obeyed orders from above. There are many rules in the army, there is a lot of pressure, and they are beaten and scolded at every turn, and no one cares about them at all.
Under such conditions, many soldiers are confused, a few extremely brave will develop into pro-soldier family members and be regarded as killers, and more soldiers will become soldiers, unable to fight any tough battles, and will be defeated at the first touch.
However, when this reform was carried out, many soldiers had a sense of belonging, and they were no longer the big ones who blindly obeyed orders.
They can also have their own ideas, and they can also decide what to eat and decide how to spend their money...... Some people bought seeds, planted vegetables in the barracks, and some raised chickens and ducks...... It's nothing to do, the big guys are all vying to serve, and they do a better job than the farmers outside!
It's only been a month or two, and in the killing, there is more laughter and more liveliness...... Because the soldiers discussed and worked together, the relationship between them was more harmonious and intimate than before.
Moreover, Zhu Di took the opportunity to strengthen training, and soon, the subordinates of the acting king and the king of Su all showed strong combat effectiveness, and even overwhelmed the original three guards of the Qin Wangfu!
"Looks like it's really going to change!"
Zhu Di was pleasantly surprised, and had to admit that the effect of the change.
In that case, let's go all-in-one!
There's just one obstacle.
In order to establish a system for distributing military rations and salaries to nearly 100,000 people, it is also necessary to arrange personnel, collect information in the army, and be responsible for delivering information to the subordinates, but it requires a lot of manpower.
And these people must also be able to write and calculate, and have some skills.
Can you find so many talents in this land under your feet?
Zhu Di began to examine the civil service system under his command...... He soon found out that there was a scribe in charge of the transportation of military rations, hundreds of income and expenditures in a row, without the slightest mistake, and the completion was good and fast, Zhu Di became interested, he looked at the name again, and suddenly had some impressions!
"Liu Zheng! Why do you look a little like that kid of yours? ”
Liu Chun glanced at it, nodded and said: "I have a student named Liu Zheng, but two years ago he was promoted to the political envoy of Zhejiang Zuobu, and he is a member of the second grade, so it is estimated that he will not go to Xi'an to be a small official!" ”
Zhu Di snorted and sneered: "You are an evil person, your disciple is even weirder!" I see, the eight achievements are that Liu Zheng! No, this king is going to see for himself! ”
Half an hour later, Zhu Di appeared in the military grain warehouse, a short and concise young official with a southern accent, who was directing the transportation of grain, and he was so busy that he was sweating.
Zhu Di looked at it, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "Lord Liu, why are you here?" ”
The other party was stunned for a moment, turned back suddenly, saw those guards, hesitated slightly, and hurriedly bowed and said, "The lower official has seen the prince!" ”
Zhu Di walked over quickly, took Liu Zheng's hand, and took a closer look, which made Liu Zheng feel weird, "Lord Wang, but what are your orders?" ”
Zhu Di suddenly smiled and said: "I just want to see what kind of medicine you have taken wrong, and it is not appropriate to put a good feudal official, and come here to be a small official!" ”
Liu Zheng clenched his fists and said, "Lord Wang, the little official is not small...... Ever since the murder of our teacher, we, the disciples, have all wanted to avenge him! Now that the prince is raising the banner of rebellion, even if we let us lead the horse and pick up the dung, we are willing! ”
Zhu Di said curiously: "How can you say that in Xi'an, there are many officials of the law change faction?" ”
Liu Zheng said excitedly: "As far as I know, there are more than 30 of them, and there are also several former high-ranking officials in the ministry, who also came to help the prince and jointly carry the banner!" Lord Wang, you are now the hope of the world, and everyone hopes that Lord Wang can succeed! ”
