Cultivation of chastity

"Reserves, regular reserves, and veterans..." Hearing this, Li Jing narrowed his eyes slightly but did not directly answer Li Tai's words, but looked at Li Tai encouragingly, motioning Li Tai to continue.

Li Tai continued, "The reserve force is still dominated by the current government soldiers.

It is impossible for us to abolish all the government soldiers at once, which will inevitably cause turmoil in the government soldiers.

But although the current military system is not suitable for the new era, it is not that their individual qualities are not suitable, but that the organizational form is no longer suitable, and the soldiers themselves are still excellent.

The Fubing system itself is not a bad system, especially in areas with a relatively small jurisdiction. In fact, the institutional efficiency brought by the Fubing system is higher than the organizational efficiency of the recruiting system.

Let the soldiers of the Fubing system go to conquer a country thousands of miles away, it will inevitably make the Fubing instinctively resist.

Because the government soldiers have their own fields, if they leave their home for too long and can no longer manage the fields, it will definitely make the government soldiers feel bored, especially with the development of the Western Regions, the foreign wars of the Tang Dynasty may become more peaceful and frequent!
Those who have a permanent property have perseverance, and when the property is passive, that perseverance will disappear! "

"The king of Wei is right!" Li Jing thought thoughtfully, "Take the military system as the basis of the recruitment system, let the military soldiers stay in the local area for training as much as possible, and try not to go out of the prefectures and counties even if they are recruited. The impact is reduced to a minimum!"

"But it's not enough!" Li Jing shook his head and said, "If you only farm to eat, it's enough for the Fubing to start a family and start a business, but if you let the Fubing only farm, it's impossible!"

"People always want to climb up, I understand that!" Li Tai nodded.

"There is another very important point, that is, what does this have to do with ordinary people!" Li Jing said, looking at Li Tai.

Li Tai said: "Because in addition to their own training, the reserve forces will send special supervisors to teach them, conveying the thoughts of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and if there is a disaster that the people cannot resist, then the reserve forces must rush to the front line!"

"Tell them the principles of loving the people, being loyal to the emperor and loving the country, which cannot be explained clearly in one sentence."

"Only when they do it every time, and do it well, and truly gain respect and blessings from the people, will they be able to integrate the military and the people!"

"Of course, the most important thing is that they are reserve soldiers, and the imperial court takes care of food and housing, so they only need to train normally.

After all, this is different from those soldiers in the standing service. They are more aimed at internal stability.

If you want to hang around like this for a lifetime, then it's enough to be in the reserve service, but if you want to go one step further, you have to enter the reserve service. "

"According to your statement, the regular army is the regular army!?" Li Shiji said.

"En!" Li Tai nodded and said, "If you say that the reserve soldiers can still be regarded as a combination of soldiers and civilians, we should train the soldiers as much as possible without increasing the burden on the country.

It is different when it comes to the standing service. They are the most elite soldiers recruited from the elite of the government soldiers at the expense of the imperial court. They can make a similar assessment and recruit soldiers from the reserve service in various places every year.

When the soldiers are recruited, there will be a half-year training period, and those who pass the selection will enter the standing service. The standing service will enjoy salary and benefits, and even their families will receive additional subsidies. This subsidy will last until he retires. "

"If this is the case, then after becoming a soldier, this person will be afraid of fighting and dying!" Li Jing sighed, "Wei soldiers will collapse like this in the later stage!"

Li Tai heard Li Jing's words, but he also understood Li Jing's worry in his heart.

Because for the soldiers, he has already become an official soldier. If he dies, his family will fall into despair, so why should he fight to the death? Isn't it good to survive!
After all, I have also been on the battlefield once, and finally survived. If you say that you are afraid of war, it is not good.

The corruption of the Wei military pawn system was not only the destruction of Pang Juan by Sun Bin, who killed the last Wei military pawn of the Wei state, but also the collapse of the Wei military pawn system itself.

After all, Wei Wuzu can fight for his own status, so he can also avoid wars to keep his status. These are human natures, no matter what you say, it is really difficult to change.

And Li Tai couldn't help but nodded, and sighed, "So, this requires follow-up belief building, as well as sacrifice and compensation!"

"Faith shaping and sacrifice?" Li Jing said, "I know the latter, and I believe you, King Wei, can do it too, but the former...how are you going to do it!"

"All lofty spirits must have simple and honest material!" Li Tai said, "This can be regarded as the idea and conclusion I came to in the process of labor reforming aliens!"

"Please elaborate, King Wei!" Li Jing couldn't help but open his eyes when he heard Li Tai's words, but he spoke.

Because in the eyes of all people, it is actually quite miraculous that the king of Wei let the foreign race be Sinicized.

It's not that other people have never tried to sinicize alien races, and it's not like no one has done such things as Confucianism.

But in the end, not to mention the effect, even if it is effective, the speed is quite slow.

However, the king of Wei educated the aliens very quickly. Basically, he wore Han clothes for a month, learned to speak Chinese in a year, and understood the etiquette of the Han people in two years.

Waiting for more than three years, except for the traces of Hu people in their appearance, when some Han people come into contact with them, they will more or less feel that you are a Han Chinese or I am a Han Chinese.

"Because they have sustenance!" Li Tai looked at Li Jing and said, "For us Tang people, this land is our sustenance. From ancient times to the present, this land contains the blood, sweat and soul of our ancestors.

But not for the aliens. For them, they are rejected by this whole world, and they have no concern for this land! "

"It was you who created their attachment to this piece of land?!" Li Jing said in a deep voice when he heard Li Tai's words.

"No, any concern created by others has no meaning to them.

Only the fetters they created with their own hands can make them feel integrated into this land! "

Li Taidao, "So, I let them do corvée, let them use their own sweat to build projects.

When this project is actually completed, they will be given large-scale surnames, and this project will be used as the source of their surnames.

For example, those who built roads were named Lu, those who built bridges were named Qiao, those who built canals were named Yun, and so on.

Then let the aliens with the given surname live near the project, let them live there, and let them be responsible for the maintenance of this project.

For them, what this project brings is not only pure profit or convenience, but more importantly, it allows them to have such a small piece of spiritual sustenance in this society that is very strange to them.

For them, even though they are outsiders, they are truly integrated into it.

Because they have also made contributions to our Datang, because these projects are the proof of their contributions! "

Li Tailue said with a bit of regret, "Because they really got their souls."

"Soul belongs..." Li Jing heard Li Tai's words, but couldn't help chewing on the term.

And Li Tai continued, "So, the soldiers also need such a place where their souls belong.

I think according to the counties, states, and countries, establish a place for soldiers and soldiers to return to the West after their sacrifices.

Among them, ordinary soldiers died and their ashes were sent back to their hometowns for burial. The prefectures and counties included them in the county annals, and the county magistrates had to worship them every year during Qingming.

Then, for the soldiers who have clearly made meritorious service, the ashes of their remains will be transported back to the state government office where they are located, and they will be buried in the government office. In addition to worshiping at the Qingming Festival every year, the state order must receive condolences from the corresponding family members at the end of each year.

In the end, the soldiers who have made great achievements such as standing first, blocking the enemy, and defending to the death will set aside land in Chang'an or Luoyang as their public burial places.

Their deeds and meritorious deeds were written by historians themselves, and they were offered sacrifices by the court at four o'clock.

Their army number is additionally reserved, allowing their son to directly enter the agricultural school, and even the future art school. After his son joins the army, his father's army number will be passed on to his son. "

"The king of Wei is very thoughtful!" Li Jing sighed after hearing Li Tai's words, "If this is the case, the soldiers will probably die."

"After all, they are working hard for Datang. All I can do is hope that they can fight for Datang without any scruples!" Li Tai couldn't help but sigh.

"Originally, I didn't want to ask you, King Wei, about their compensation for sacrifices, but now I'm more curious about how King Wei will support the soldiers!" Li Jing said curiously at this moment.

Li Tai said: "Let's not talk about pensions, let's start with the benefits of the regular service, no matter what, I will work hard to promote these things!
First of all, after becoming formal soldiers, their whole family will enjoy certain treatment, not to mention tax reduction or exemption, the most important thing is that if their relatives commit crimes, they are not completely under the jurisdiction of the local government.

The military must send personnel to participate in the entire process of evidence collection and trial. If the charges involve the military personnel themselves, they will be dealt with according to military law, not civil law. "

Hearing this, Li Jing thought for a while, then couldn't help but nodded.

It has to be said that Li Jing, who is a representative of the military, has nothing to refuse to protect the status of soldiers.

How can military law be confused with civil law, but now their relatives are also included in the scope of protection of military law.

To a certain extent, this kind of reward is what their relatives can feel the most, so they will also support the soldiers on the front line the most.

"After finishing this, let's say that if they die in battle, the relatives will retain their military status, the children will retain it forever, and the wife will remarry."

Li Jing heard Li Tai's words, thought for a while and didn't think there was any problem.

The status of women in this era is really not high. If their wives choose to keep their chastity, then the military status can give them some convenience. If they choose to remarry and find a new reliance, the military status will disappear. After all, they have other reliance, so there is nothing to say .

Of course, women can also choose to rely on their military status while interacting with others. Li Tai has no objection to this kind of exploiting loopholes anyway, but the child she gave birth to does not have the corresponding military status.

"Then other benefits, such as being able to receive the eighth-level salary of a soldier, can be stopped after ten years, and the son of a soldier can go to an agricultural school for free for education, and even enter a military law school for education until he reaches adulthood, etc."

"I believe what you said, King Wei, and you have the ability to give it, but how should these things be kept and put into the hands of the widows of the soldiers!" Li Jing said after hearing Li Tai's words after thinking for a while.

To be honest, Li Jing knew that Li Tai could come with money, after all, even the IOUs written by King Wei could be used as money.

Although he didn't understand how King Wei operated, Li Jing believed that Li Tai was not short of money.

But this does not mean that King Wei can really put the money into the hands of the widows of the soldiers, which is really difficult to guarantee.

"The first is to establish a perfect household registration system. Only when this system is perfect can we know who his relatives are. The county magistrate will distribute subsidies according to the list of sacrificed monuments.

Then the military will organize an annual visit to the local military families and a gathering of local veterans to ensure smooth communication between the military families and the military, so that local veterans can rely on their fellowship to consolidate this interest.

Secondly, military members will have other additional social subsidies. These social subsidies are divided into basic organizations such as agricultural colleges, medical houses, and agricultural societies. won't go away.

If their money is cut off, it can be passed up through such channels.

The third is to let the candidates after the imperial examination enter the place to write the county annals. As long as the military subordinates report to them that they have not received the corresponding pension, they will be able to go directly to Datianting! "

To be honest, these three clues of Li Tai basically involved the military, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the imperial censor.

If these three lines are broken and there is no way for the information to reach the top, then it means that a cancer that can control the military, internal affairs and censors has grown in the local area.

Don't think too much about it, just send the army to wipe out the place!
Of course, the biggest possibility is that Datang has completely weakened, and its control over the local area has weakened to the extreme.

And in such a country, there is no need to think about it. The military is still thinking about pensions. It is better to join the peasant uprising, overthrow the Tang Dynasty, and enter a new historical cycle.

Li Jing naturally understood the three channels Li Tai listed, and in Li Jing's view, these three channels were enough.

He didn't say much, but said sternly, "What does King Wei explain to veterans?"

"Because I think the peak of a soldier is 35 years old. If it is higher than 35 years old, the soldier will inevitably go downhill.

Therefore, soldiers after the age of 35 need to arrange for them to be discharged in an orderly manner, but to discharge them is not to leave them to the people, but to arrange their way out, otherwise it will inevitably become a factor of social instability! " Li Tai said.
