Chapter 344: Sleepiness
The numbers in the previous chapter are wrong, but the content is correct.
………………………………………………
The candidates for the chief and deputy commanders of the three legions will not be announced for the time being, and Lu Zhe is not sure whether the candidate he has in mind will be the final chief and deputy commanders, and the final conclusion will not be made until the army is reorganized.
It is naturally impossible for all armies to be reorganized at the same time, after all, all counties need to leave garrisons for defense, so they can only be rotated back one by one.
However, there is one point, the large number of troops has overwhelmed the fragile livelihood system, so the disarmament of the army cannot be delayed, and the old and weak should be laid off within a month.
After all, if so many soldiers are demobilized all of a sudden, if they return to the civilian population and have nothing to do, they will inevitably create a problem of public order, and then arranging a place for the demobilized old and weak will also become a way not to worsen public order.
Lu Zhe not only wants to develop the army, don't forget that the development of Nanjun and Cangwu County is also on the agenda, and there is an urgent need for manpower everywhere, and it is always no problem for the demobilized old and weak to do some farm work or do some manual work that does not require technical content.
There are arrangements for the demobilization of the military over the age of 40, and there are special plans for those under the age of 13.
If they are pulled into the army or take the initiative to enter the army at such a young age, they must be unaccompanied, and if they come out of the army and cannot be self-reliant, they will definitely starve to death, so Lu Zhe has two plans for this, one is to be adopted by the head of Qian, and the other is to form a youth army.
Yan Bi is extremely in agreement with the plan to form a youth army, and he believes that the descendants should be cultivated from an early age. Since he was a child, he has been organized and trained into an army, which can ensure the loyalty of this army, and he feels that Lu Zhe's idea of forming a youth army is far-sighted. At the same time, since it is a cadet army, it must be trained, and waiting for this group of cadet troops to grow up will definitely become a force with considerable combat power.
A few people who knew that Lu Zhe intended to form a youth army were in favor of it. They knew that Lu Zhe had another plan to arrange for soldiers who were disabled by the war, and it seemed that that plan was still in the planning stage, and they were looking forward to how their master would make arrangements.
As for the arrangement of disabled soldiers wounded in battle, Lu Zhe's method is not complicated, that is, to set up some posts for these disabled soldiers to serve. However, his control over the people is still only tending to grasp the general trend, that is to say, he has not yet come to understand the people, and he does not know what posts should be set up so that the disabled soldiers can be properly arranged without adverse consequences to the people, so the arrangement of the wounded soldiers can only be said to be in the planning stage.
Kuaitong's responsibility for the next period of time is to go to the countryside to understand the actual situation of the people for Lu Zhe, and then write a detailed report to provide Lu Zhe with a general impression, and then Lu Zhe will conduct on-the-spot investigations for some situations. Only then can we come up with a plan that can properly arrange the wounded soldiers and make the people not so resistant.
In addition, Lu Zhe also had to refer to the modern compulsory military system, and implement the plan of entering the army every season for men in the prime of life under his rule. He envisioned that in the summer, the county garrisons would gather the young men and women under their rule nearby, and then conduct a quarter of training, which could be regarded as a substitute for the previous conscription. Of course, it will be set in summer because spring and autumn are busy farming, and winter is not suitable for military training.
This plan will naturally not be implemented in a short period of time, and it is necessary to wait for the head of Qiantou to get used to Lu Zhe's rule, and the recent development of people's livelihood is already insufficient.
In terms of the army, 150,000 soldiers are only the planned main battle force. It does not mean that there is only such a standing army, such as the Tuntian Army, which does not mean that the formation should be abolished. In addition to the 150,000 main battle troops, the Tuntian soldiers are also a force that must be saved at present, after all, it is too much to rely on the taxes paid by the head of the Qiantou to support the army. It is still necessary to have a tuntian army to carry out agricultural production.
Eliminate the non-commissioned soldiers over the age of 40, establish a special youth army, and save 150,000 main combat troops, Lu Zhe is not clear about the final size of the Tuntian soldiers. He guessed it would be between 180,000 and 200,000.
200,000 people can reclaim a considerable amount of land, and the grain produced by this reclaimed land is fully received. It is believed that as long as the plan is implemented smoothly, after the public land acres in various places are reclaimed, unless something like natural and man-made disasters breaks out, Lu Zhe should not be short of food.
The banquet was over, and the lieutenant was left alone. He was led by the armor to a room next to the council chamber, and when he entered, he saw him half-lying on a straw mat, stunned, and stood aside without saying a word.
The one who should come will always come, and the lieutenant knows very well why Lu Zhe left him alone. To be honest, no matter what happens, he is quite mentally prepared now.
Lu Zhe was stunned and thinking that it was not official business, he was thinking about many subordinates, either hinting or explicitly, all of which meant that they should have a young master.
Heirs? Yes, although the leader of a huge force is only twenty years old, it is indeed time for someone who can inherit the family business in order to make people's hearts settle. To put it mildly, Lu Zhe is young and strong, but now is the entrepreneurial stage, he often has to go to the battlefield in person, if there is no heir, there is an accident or something, to whom should the generals continue to be allegiant, and the object of allegance will not fall apart? In today's situation, they are strong as one, and they fall apart, and one after another will never end well.
Zhao Wan is the daughter of Zhao Gao, and it can be said that she is a Qin person with a big official in the court, although Lu Zhe and his gang did not start a war against Qin, but in a fundamental sense, they are traitors to Qin, and he can find that quite a few subordinates do not accept Zhao Wan as the master mother too much.
Many people believe that it is inevitable to fight with the Qin State in the future, and they are worried that Zhao Wan will become the main mother, so the child born must be the son-in-law, so will Zhao Wan, the main mother, teach the son of the world? After all, there will always be hatred in the process of fighting, if they do something that Zhao Wan doesn't like, and then Zhao Wan affects the son, wouldn't it be a disaster for future generations?
No matter how dull Lu Zhe was, after someone deliberately cultivated Lu Pheasant once, twice, or three times, he could always detect something, but he didn't want to react, he just wanted to watch coldly.
"Lu Pheasant......" Lu Zhe didn't know that this was a dangerous woman, but he saw the good side of Lu Pheasant.
According to historical records of Lu Pheasant, Liu Bang's great achievements have a lot to do with this woman's encouragement. In addition, before Liu Bang made a fortune, Lu Pheasant was definitely a typical example of a good wife and mother, taking care of both her in-laws and children, and she repeatedly endured all kinds of difficulties in the face of her uncle and sister-in-law.
To tell the truth, Lu Zhe believes that Lu Pheasant's final transformation into a vicious woman is actually caused by the ups and downs she has experienced, and the appearance of Mrs. Qi is inseparable.
What kind of character will he have if he has experienced something, Lu Zhe himself has a deep understanding of this, just like he would never have thought that he would become a suspicious person before, but now he is wary of everyone.
Now that history has changed beyond recognition, Lu Zhe believes that with different experiences and different environments, Lu Pheasant will definitely not be the Lu Pheasant in history.
Just thinking about it, Lu Zhe wanted to turn over but saw the lieutenant. He didn't know if the lieutenant had just come or had been here for a long time, so he didn't get up but pointed to the side: "Sit or lie down, feel free." ”
The lieutenant saw that Lu Zhe's expression had been changing just now, he only thought that Lu Zhe was thinking about what to do with himself, and bowed respectfully before kneeling and waiting quietly for Lu Zhe to speak.
Lu Zhe frowned when he saw the lieutenant sitting upright.
Seeing Lu Zhe frowning, Gongwei couldn't help but feel a sudden burst in his heart, and there was a vague sense of foreboding in his heart.
"Your father ......," Lu Zhe said as he slowly sat up with his hand on the straw mat, "does he know that you are under my command?" ”
"Guilty of duty." The lieutenant bowed down first, then retreated some distance on his knees, and when Lu Zhe saw it inexplicably, he said, "There are a few letters in my arms. ”
Only then did Lu Zhe understand that the lieutenant needed to put his hand into his arms, and the reason why he retreated was because he was worried that he would misunderstand that he was going to assassinate or something.
"The father of the post knows that the captain is under the command of the Lord." Gongwei took out two wooden coffins and a white juan, and handed them out respectfully.
Lu Zhe didn't answer, he looked at the lieutenant who maintained a bowing posture, and there was no joy or anger in his tone: "Did you write a letter to let you betray me?" ”
"My father doesn't know the general trend, but he has no intention of betraying the Lord." Gongwei's heart was very cold, he could have put the blame on Xiang Liang's conspiracy, but he knew Lu Zhe too well, and said that those would not play a very good role, but would make Lu Zhe's mood worse.
"I believe it." Lu Zhe said this briefly.
The lieutenant seems to be a little unresponsive? He looked up at Lu Zhe suddenly, but saw that Lu Zhe was also looking at him with a smile on his face.
As early as hearing that Gongao was in Chu and scolded himself, Lu Zhe immediately made a targeted vigilance against Gongwei, but I am afraid that anyone else would do that. He said that it was not a lie that he believed the lieutenant, but that the lieutenant did not act as a rebel at that time, but acted in accordance with the order immediately after receiving the military order. Furthermore, he believed that Gongwei would not be a fool, and that the State of Chu was a hall of words of the Xiang family, and that Gongwei would have a higher status than under him?
A very simple thing, Gongwei is one of the three generals under Lu Zhe, according to Lu Zhe's importance to Gongwei, the future is not to mention that the future is immeasurable, but it will definitely not be too bad, and if he is thrown into Chu according to Xiang's actions, Xiang Liang will be better than Gongwei at the beginning, but in the end he will either become a marginal figure or be cleaned. Gongwei is a person who has the right to watch the intelligence of the Chu State, and it is impossible not to see this.
On the one hand, it is important and has a promising future, and on the other hand, it is abandoned or even purged after use, and the lieutenant knows what choice to make as long as he is sober-minded.
"Lord ......" Gongwei's expression was very complicated, the development of things was too unexpected, he didn't expect that Lu Zhe would raise it high and put it down gently. (To be continued......)
