I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 132 Part of the Grand Plan
What kind of erroneous perception made Zhiyao think that she would not play tricks?Probably because of repeated calculations about the failure of Zhao's heir, it made him not give that piece of material.

Regarding Zhiyao's manipulation of Zhao's heir, the reason why he felt that he failed was because Zhao Bolu didn't seem to pass Zhao Yang's test to defeat "Wen".

Since Zhao Bolu did not show his ability, there must be no such thing as a stable heir. Once one of Zhao Yang's sons suddenly emerges, and with the help of the core members of the Zhao family or important retainers, who will be able to take the helm of the Zhao family in the future? It's hard to say.

The Zhi family who returned to "Xintian" did not run around, and no one came to visit immediately.

The current rule is that whichever family has a funeral, even if the funeral is over, it is still not suitable to visit each other in the short term.

Because of Zhishen's previous relationship in the "Zhi" land, the monarch and Zhao Yang, Wei Lu, and Han Buxin have already discussed the ownership of the position, and they still have to get Zhishen's approval before finally promulgating a formal appointment.

The list of positions is already there.

In the proposed list of ministers, the middle army will be Zhao Yang, Han does not trust the middle army assistant; It's okay to go, but the position of the next army assistant is temporarily undecided.

It was not a list that was negotiated at once. At the beginning, Zhao Yang wanted Wei Lu to be promoted to the rank of Zhongjun Zuo, but Wei Lu refused.

If you understand the ranking of Jin Guoqing, you will know that there was no such thing as leapfrogging a long time ago, and a sequential succession system was adopted.This rule was broken after Xun Yu, because Shi Gai made a virtuous transfer, and gave up the "Yuan Rong" throne that he had originally obtained to Zhong Xingyan.

After Bank of China Yan, entered the era of Shigai, the Xun family...or Zhongxing Wu of the Zhongxing family appeared here again. Yao Mozi appeared here. Originally, Wu Gang of the Bank of China should start as a "Qing", but Wu of the Bank of China was appointed as the "Qing" at the beginning. "It's Shang Jun Zuo.

A series of examples of breaking the rules appeared, and the rules of seniority ranking for the position of Jin Guoqing disappeared, and then it simply became a routine of whoever is stronger.

This time, Wei Lu had his own reasons for his refusal. The status of a nobleman is no longer a ranking of seniority, but there is a rule that still exists.

The "generals" of each legion in Jin State have a lot of power, including the right to enlist and judge meritorious service; the military assistant is the deputy, and there are too many young generals in power.

Since the death of the top rank does not necessarily mean the replacement of the bottom rank, the middle army assistant means that the biggest benefit is gone.

Wei Lu wondered if he would be crushed to death by Zhao Yang in all directions once he became a lieutenant commander?It's better to be the chief general of a legion and continue to hold the right to enlist and judge meritorious service.

In addition, Wei Lu felt that the Han family would not be able to break free from the control of the Zhao family for a while. If Han Buxin became a general, it would be equivalent to Zhao's control of two legions. It is better to let Han Buxin become the army assistant.

The monarch is very happy to see Wei Lu in charge of an army, which is in line with the balance he wants, and if Hu Jie controls an army, it means that this wave will make money, and he must choose to support Wei Lu's proposal.

"My family is strong, the Wei family is in the front, and the adult is just a military assistant." Zhiyao was halfway through reviewing the five-year plan when his father Zhishen came over with hot soup.

Zhishen was a little flustered about becoming a military officer, worried that losing the right to enlist and appraise merit would make the small and medium-sized nobles who were previously attached to the Zhi family switch to his family, and wondered if he could be a general.

This is because although there is a list of positions, it is only a list if it is not finally announced, and it is still negotiable.

Zhiyao can understand Zhishen's desire to maintain the authority of the Zhi family, and is very concerned about the foundation created by Zhibi, and is very sensitive to the possible loss of some vassals.

The nobles of the Jin Kingdom are very realistic. If they can pay taxes, they absolutely don’t want to pay taxes, and they don’t want their merits to be corrupted. Naturally, they will move closer to the noble families who have the right to call and judge merit.

"Husbands do not compete, so nothing in the world can compete with them." Zhiyao said a sentence in Lao Tzu's "De Dao Jing".

Zhishen has read "The Classic of Virtue and Taoism", and without anyone explaining it, he can understand not only a philosophical work, but also a military book, and even a book that teaches the strategy of governing.

The mention of "De Dao Jing" is not that Zhiyao wants Zhishen to "govern by doing nothing", but that some strategies in it are very suitable for the current Zhishi.

With Zhibi's death, Wei stepped forward.

This does not depend on Wei Xu's own will, if he is not willing, he will be pushed up by the monarch and his own people, and become a role to compete with Zhao.

If the Wei family can hold on to the Zhao family, they will definitely benefit greatly.Once unable to contend?At worst, Wei Hua would have the Zhi family and the Hu family fight with the Zhao family, and the monarch would definitely bring the family to the end.

Under the pre-set situation, Wei Lu wanted to understand that if he missed this village, this store would not exist, so he was stupid not to give it a try.

Zhishen breathed and exhaled vigorously back and forth, calmed down his restless mood, glanced at the article on the case, and asked, "Is this what my family wants to do?"

After sorting out some of them, Zhiyao will naturally show them to Zhishen, and the rest of the core tribe and important retainers will also see some of them.

In view of the fact that Zhiyao was already engaged in the standing army when Zhibi was alive, he also picked out the part about the standing army to show Zhishen.

"After harvesting every summer, call strong men to teach on the spot, and the outstanding ones will join the army?" This part of Zhishen's reading is Zhiyao's internal selection of soldiers in the Zhi family.

The state of Jin conducts large-scale military training every summer. It’s not that the country recruits men of the right age to practice. It’s simply that every family has such a habit. this one.

This kind of "activity" is carried out most diligently by the nobles of the state of Jin. On the contrary, the rest of the countries who know the rules and principles of "scholars who don't teach, can't be recruited". once.

The preparations for the wars of the various countries are much worse than those of the Jin State. It is no wonder that they were beaten up by the Jin army on the battlefield.

In fact, the nations know what's going on, the problem is that their nobles simply can't afford the summer drills that the nobles of Jin have to do every year!

There is such a vassal state that can afford it, but they are playing in the wrong direction. That country is called Qi State.

Qi State also learned from Jin State at the beginning, and then Zhiyu was in charge of "Yuan Rong". He found that Qi State was following Jin State's example, and sent legions to Qi State to make appointments with Qi State again and again, which disrupted the rhythm of Qi State's military training.

The military training was disturbed by the Jin State again and again, and the Qi State couldn't bear to be beaten every year, so they stopped doing it altogether.

In the period of Duke Ling of Qi, Lu Huan felt that this was really not possible, so why not advocate the spirit of martial arts and take the lead in advocating martial arts!

Then, the monarch loves warriors, and the people of Qi practice martial arts in different ways. The weapons they produce are all kinds of weapons. There are not too many people who are brave and fierce in the city or in the countryside.

None of the proposals that Zhishen saw had anything to do with personal training and combat skills. Some of them were only selected after layers of selection, and the outstanding ones were directly absorbed by Zhiyao into the standing army, and then proceeded to the next elimination steps.

It is equivalent to saying that Zhiyao not only wants the most valiant and skilled fighters in Zhishi, but also trains these people into one appearance, and develops combat effectiveness in a collective way.

Zhishen could understand it, and generally knew the importance of such a standing army to the Zhi family, but he still had doubts about some places, and asked, "It's... so expensive!"

Zhiyao, who was planning an industrial base, rolled her eyes.

It is not for nothing that Lao Zhi's family raises [-] standing troops. When there is a need for an expedition, they will definitely be pulled out to fight.

Another point is that the existence of such a standing army means that the number of recruits for "scholars" and "disciples" is reduced, which also increases the tax that can be collected.

A little problem is because of the dissatisfaction of "scholars" and "disciples".At this point, Zhiyao also has a way to deal with it. At that time, a set of public opinions will be made that can't join the standing army and non-warriors, so that all classes can fight to get into the standing army, so as to offset the possible dissatisfaction.

For the [-] standing army, Zhishi provided equipment and daily food and fodder consumption, and they could be pulled out to fight at any time, and at the same time, they didn't need to provide such things as military pay.

It's not right to say that the standing army is completely dependent on Zhi's support. They can be captured if they fight, let alone have other more important values.

According to Zhiyao's plan, the existence of five thousand standing troops is far more important than being able to recruit an "army", which will be reflected in loyalty and combat effectiveness.

Those who were eliminated during the training of the standing army can achieve an effect of "hiding soldiers among the people".

To put it bluntly, they were eliminated, and they would definitely not be reconciled when they went back. Then they practiced with their children or relatives and friends, so as to further provide Zhishi with high-quality soldiers.

After Zhishen finished reading the relevant plan, he discussed with Zhiyao again, and a series of listening turned into a dumbfounded expression.

"My family's collection of books is the crown of all families, even more than that of the royal family of Zhou Dynasty; Yao Chuang Lecture Hall, everyone from the clan can enter, and the descendants of the family members can also enter. The poor ones can be Zao and Xu, the middle ones can be the magistrates, and the superior ones are my family. Pillars; the army has halls, and there are endless 'soldiers', and there is no trouble of leading troops." Zhiyao has an incomparable posture.

The original meaning of the "palace" is grand and solemn, and when it comes to the military, it means a military academy or something like that.

Of course, there is no military academy yet, and Zhiyao will be "created" again.

It was precisely when Zhishen understood that he was completely overwhelmed and didn't know what to say for a long time.

And this is because Zhishen didn't see Zhiyao's plan for agriculture and industry. It's hard to say whether he can understand it after reading it, and how much he understands if he understands it.

Zhiyao's five-year plan is only part of it. When this part is completed, there will be a new five-year plan.

It is equivalent to saying that in the era when Zhishen was in charge of the Zhi family, the old Zhi family would enter a period that focused on internal development.

Anyway, the outside world knows that Zhishen is a mediocre person, so the old Zhi family doesn't need to play too much.

Next, when Zhao Yang is in power, the old Zhao family must be shining brightly. It is enough for the old Zhi family to help the old Wei family.

Everyone's attention is either attracted by the old Zhao's family, or they will pay attention to the old Wei's family. Even if the old Zhi's family occasionally has a highlight moment, as long as it is the day when Zhishen is the head of the family, everyone will have a preconceived impression of the Zhi family. I don't care too much.

"Five years, at least give me five years! If there are ten years, if the development goes well, can the entire Jin country be pushed across?" Zhiyao looked at her father who hadn't recovered yet, and wondered in her heart. looking forward to.
