Chapter 577: Zhu Neng is a big fool
Faced with the joint letter of the three princes, Zhu Di also couldn't cry or laugh.
He just wanted to take the opportunity to clean up military discipline, but he never expected that he would use too much force, and his generals proposed to completely reorganize the army, and also handed in a very good plan, which made Zhu Di quite moved.
Frankly speaking, the reason why there is confusion in military discipline is also related to the complex composition of men and horses.
Originally, Zhu Di's Yanwang Sanwei was a clean and clean system, very simple, and the officials were also convenient, from top to bottom, a whip down, there was no problem.
But because of the Battle of Jingjing, Zhu Di absorbed too many other soldiers and horses.
There are the subordinates of the kings, the soldiers and horses of Yunnan, and the local militia, in the process of entering Jinling, they recruited and rebelled, and now among all the soldiers and horses, there are almost more than ninety percent, not Zhu Di's descendants.
Although after a year of rectification, the situation is somewhat better. But with so many people, the good and the bad are uneven and complicated. Even the soldiers and horses of Beiping, who were originally very obedient, were infected with bad habits, otherwise they would never have fallen so quickly.
Zhu Di saw it in his eyes, can he not be in a hurry?
You must know that this team of people is the most important tool for him to realize his ideal of sweeping the world, and he relies on them to create an indefatigable cause and achieve an emperor through the ages!
If it weren't for this, Zhu Di would not have poured out his heart and lungs and had a great deal of righteousness with a large group of princes.
By now, the reorganization of the army is inevitable.
"Liu Chun, what do you think of this plan?"
After taking over the song, Liu Chun only looked at it symbolically, because the content on it was not unfamiliar, this was when he drank and bragged with his old father-in-law.
Liu Chun never expected that several upstarts would be able to run to Lan Yu, and Lan Yu poked out his plan again. Liu Chun felt that he had to pretend to be confused, otherwise, he would probably be suspicious of Zhu Di and think that it was a game set up by him.
God is pitiful, although Liu Chun advocates the reorganization of the army, but he feels that the heat is still a little worse, and it is not the best time.
But the matter has come, and he can't shirk it.
"Your Majesty, this set of army reorganization plans is certainly good, but isn't the step too big?"
Zhu Di pondered for a moment, "Do you mean abolishing the military household?" ”
"This ...... Your Majesty, the military household is the ancestral system of the first emperor, and it is not appropriate to abolish it rashly. Moreover, the abolition of military households will immediately face the problem of insufficient military resources. Moreover, although the military households are poor, they still have fields after all, and there is still one stone of military rations every month, which can barely feed their families. If it is hastily abolished, how will the livelihood of these soldiers be solved? ”
Zhu Di listened to Liu Chun's words and snorted, "It does make sense, so what are you going to do?" Just let it go and stick to the old ways? ”
"This ...... Of course not. ”
Liu Chun said: "The minister thinks that as long as the rules are changed slightly, it will be fine." ”
"How?"
"All military households must join the army according to the actual situation of their families and pass the assessment. As for the present, the proportion of children of military households who directly join the army will be reduced year by year, and within 10 years, a comprehensive assessment will be carried out to select and select them to join the army. ”
Zhu Di frowned, and after a little thought, he understood what Liu Chun meant.
I have to say that this kid is cunning enough, he doesn't say it, but in fact, he has hollowed out the military household system.
According to the actual situation, this means that if there is really no male in the family, or if there are practical difficulties, you can apply for suspension of military service.
This is the first level.
And the assessment is the second level, some people eat food in order to be soldiers, or their parents are leaders and generals, and they want to inherit the status, which will cause some people who are obviously sons of gentlemen and don't understand bullshit, but they are mixed into the army, and even steal important positions.
Liu Chun's idea is to pass the assessment and win the unqualified ones.
As a result, the proportion of military households that originally joined the army is bound to be greatly reduced.
The so-called 10-year period is the time limit for the complete abolition of the military household system.
"Your Majesty, there is another important thing to change the military household system, that is, to increase the military salary of soldiers. The monthly grain of one stone was raised to two stones, of which one stone was distributed in kind, and one stone was converted into banknotes and distributed according to the local market price. ”
"In addition, the situation of the mainland and the border army is different, and the minister thinks that he can first focus on reducing the number of military households in the mainland. By the way, the minister has another idea. Liu Chun smiled and said: "Your Majesty can announce a decree, Nanzhili, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian, Huguang, Henan and other places, if you need to abolish the status of military households in advance, you can pay twenty stones of grain and redeem yourself to the imperial court." ”
Zhu Di frowned, "Liu Chun, you're not joking, are you?" Will anyone be willing to pay for food? Doesn't it mean that military households are quite poor? ”
Liu Chun laughed, "Your Majesty, after decades of development, according to the minister's investigation, most military families are still living in poverty, but there are also many military families, because they are well managed, have done business, and have accumulated a lot of wealth. They even need to hire young men to act as military households for them. Instead of this, it is better to give them a way, they can pay food, abolish their military household status, and get some money for Your Majesty to spend casually. ”
Zhu Di was quite happy to hear it before, but when he heard the last sentence, his face darkened again.
What is this called? Is that why I love money?
Besides, if the identity of a soldier can be bought and sold, is it too child's play, in case it shakes the morale of the army and affects the combat effectiveness, then the gain outweighs the loss.
Seeing Zhu Di's doubts, Liu Chun smiled and said: "Your Majesty, even if these military households join the army, they can only be used as local garrisons, and the real elite should be placed on the forbidden army." ”
Zhu Di nodded, "Indeed, the forbidden army is very important, and this is where I hesitate the most." ”
According to the recital of the three princes, it is necessary to establish a strong forbidden army with firearms as the core, and in order to cultivate military talents, additional schools will be added.
But after all, Zhu Di was born in the Mongols, although he attaches great importance to firearms, but he still has a preference for mounted archery, not to mention that the firearms themselves cost too much, and the requirements for logistics are also high.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it is better to divide the forbidden army into three parts, the first is the five military camps, this part should absorb the elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, strictly train, and be able to fight and dare to fight, which is the cornerstone of the entire forbidden army. The number is between 150,000 and 200,000. ”
"The second part is 3,000 battalions, and this part is mainly cavalry, which can include the Beiping cavalry, Duoyan Sanwei, and some cavalry from Liaodong, with a total of about 30,000 people, which can ensure that 10,000 elite cavalry can be mobilized to fight at any time."
"Then there is the Shenji Battalion, as the name suggests, the Shenji Battalion is mainly based on firearms, this part is temporarily allocated to 50,000 people, according to the future situation, the Shenji Battalion can be expanded, or the other two battalions of the forbidden army will be replaced with firearms in batches."
"The minister felt that the goal of this reorganization of the army should be to ensure that the five army battalions could resist the steppe cavalry and win the battle. The 3,000 battalion and the Shenji battalion are the wonder soldiers in the army, as long as they are scattered, they can decide the situation in one fell swoop! ”
……
Zhu Neng hid in the Chengguo Mansion, to be precise, he shrank up, no matter how many people came outside, he didn't see it, even if it was the old subordinates in the past, he didn't care.
Zhu Neng called his baby son Zhu Yong in front of him.
He looked at his son's humble appearance, and he burst into tears. Your father is not like this, I was so clever when I was a child, smart, and had a good vision, more than ten years ago, I knew that Liu Chun was a character, and the entire Yanwang Mansion Sanwei belonged to me and him best.
My baby, why don't you look like your father at all?
"Yong'er, dad can see it, don't you want to be both civil and military, or be an honest martial artist! This reorganization of the army is an opportunity...... Dad asks you, what do you want to do? ”
Zhu Yong did not hesitate, "Horseback riding!" ”
"What horseback riding?" Zhu Neng was angry, "In the future, the focus of the army will be on firearms, you have to learn firearms!" ”
"Horseback riding!" Zhu Yong is still these two words.
"No! Be careful I kill you! Listen to your dad and learn firearms. Zhu Neng said fiercely,
Zhu Yong tilted his head and thought about it seriously, "Dad, I'll give you a question, and if you answer it correctly, I'll listen to you." ”
"You're giving me a question?" Zhu Neng almost wanted to laugh out loud. This stupid boy, you are the first to the bottom every time, Liu Chun's girl is not yet three years old, she has more eyes than you, how can I Zhu Neng be better than a three-year-old child, right? ”
"Father, in the race, you chased the second place, how many are you?"
"Chased the second, of course it's the ......" The word almost came out, Zhu Neng thought seriously for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying: "It's the second place!" ”
He secretly sweated, this question must have come from Liu Chun, revealing a lack of morality, but fortunately, his father was smart and not fooled.
Zhu Yong tilted his head and said, "Dad, what about running in the school field and surpassing the penultimate one?" ”
Zhu Neng laughed, "Silly boy, change directions, do you think Dad doesn't know?" More than the penultimate one, of course the penultimate one! ”
Zhu Yong's eyes suddenly widened and said, "Dad, what you said is true?" ”
"Nonsense!"
At this moment, Zhu Yong jumped excitedly, dancing with his hands, not to mention how happy.
"I know, I finally know, it's not that I'm stupid, it's that they're too smart!" Zhu Yong said seriously: "Dad, you'd better find a dozen people and let them race around the circle of the school field to see what happens if they exceed the penultimate one?" ”
After Zhu Yong finished speaking, he ran outside, shouting as he ran, happy and happy, "My dad is a big fool, a big fool!" "At this moment, Zhu Neng's old face is more terrible than the bottom of the pot!
"Bunny, you're dead!"
