My uncle's name is Zhu Di

Chapter 204

In the Hall of Martial Arts, all the virtuous men arrive, and the young and long come together.

The emperor is in the middle, accompanied by the prince, to the east are the six divisions of nine ministers headed by Jian Yi, to the west are Yao Guangxiao, Xu Jingchang, Zhu Neng, the Duke of Cheng, and Xu Huizu, the Duke of Wei!
That's right, it was Xu Huizu who replaced Qiu Fu, Duke of Qi, and attended the imperial meeting in the Hall of Martial Heroes.

It's just that Xu Huizu was behind his nephew, looking a little funny... But no one dared to laugh, and even felt a little chills down his spine.

After all, this number one general has returned to his former glory.

To be precise, it is far better than before.

When Xu Da was alive, there were Song Guogong Feng Sheng, Xin Guogong Tang He, Ying Guogong Fu Youde, and Lan Yu and others. Xu Da was also modest and did not fight or grab. kind of.

But when Xu Jingchang came here, the Xu family's style of painting was different. This kid was born specifically for disgusting big guys.The more unpopular things are, the more vigorously he works.

One thing like this is enough to make people overwhelmed, and then there is another Xu Qin, with the fame of Tanhua Lang, who has a bright future and is unimpeded.

Up to now, even people like Xu Huizu have been reborn and returned to the court.

Wei Guogong thought so in his heart, but his mouth was polite, "Your Majesty, Ding Guogong talked nonsense and disturbed the discussion. Your Majesty, please judge."

Excluding us from decision-making, over time, accidents are bound to happen.

Xia Yuanji Yuna said: "You have thought about this matter."

For some countries with too small population, volunteers and conscripts are also combined, and conscripts will be canceled... because it means that the country and every citizen are closely related, and we share weal and woe.

Young people of the right age must join the army and serve the country.

Ran Mingjuan laughed, "This will make warriors as honorable as scholars, that's all."
"Xu Jingchang, let's talk about it, what should we do to make it bad?"

But even if they attended the meeting, Huang Huai, Hu Guang, Yang Rong and others were all overjoyed.Because only when you are not there, can you see the whole picture.

Zhu Di has the same talent as his little brother-in-law.

"In short, I believe that your majesty should consider everything. If you want to mobilize military households, you must mobilize the military system. Only in this way can there be long-term peace and stability, and the merits will last forever."

Speaking of that, Zhu Di turned pale with a little fright. To be honest, I really ignored it. I just wanted to ensure the combat power of the soldiers and become a sharp sword to expand the territory.But he didn't expect that the generals in the army didn't have the problem of background.

Ran Mingjuan said: "Abolish the guard post, merge it into the local government, revoke the military registration, merge it into the yellow book, and pay food and serve as one, that is the right thing to do."

"This abolishes military households and affects the number of soldiers and horses, so what should we do?"

More than a dozen important ministers sat together, like the early dynasty, with hundreds of people chaotically, and it was also like the interior of the headquarters, where the minister spoke with one word.

Zhu Di was very vague in his heart. He could only rely on a few or eight people to make decisions. Under that court, even the low-ranking officials at the level of Shangshu did not have weak strength.

At that time, Lao Xia spoke again, "Mr. Ding, the military households in the Central Plains are already useful, and there is a way to recruit them to the battlefield. If they are laid off, they will be laid off. Why should he worry about it?"

"The household department has nothing to do. For the sake of the state, it is a military household with something to do!" Wei Guogong refuted it.

When Ran Mingjuan heard this, her old face turned livid, that elder is really polite, and what I said may not be right. There are no loopholes in the matter of Baochao, and I also said it was bad.

Zhu Di pondered for a while, feeling more and more unusual about this matter, "Is what he said about the recruitment system?"

It has to be said that the Xu family has really accumulated Yin skills.

As soon as I finished speaking, Wei Guogong, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, immediately echoed: "Your Majesty, I think what Xu Jingchang said is very true. Abolishing useful guards and emptying local financial resources is actually a good strategy for benefiting the country and the people."

Could it be that Xu Da has really become a god and is protecting his descendants?
Xia Yuanji got up calmly, bowed his waist and said: "Returning to Your Majesty, I have thought about it beforehand. Except for the Xu Shaowei in the Central Plains and Jiangnan, except for the ones near the sea, the rest are not only fighting, but also recovering. It's not irreparable."

Zhu Neng's big move was captured by Zhu Di, which made Zhu Di secretly sigh, those old brothers were still fighting well, but the real difference is that the gap is too small.

Otherwise I can't explain it!
Today Zhu Di took the lead in speaking and named the topic.

Xia Yuanji didn't mean to underestimate his nephew at all, but said honestly: "He came from a military household."

Therefore, Xu Huizu's discussion must ensure a sufficient scale.

Ran Mingjuan smiled wryly and shook her head, "Your Majesty, when Emperor Taizu fought in the sky, he set up guards in Zhenjiang, Yangzhou and other places to guard against Zhang Shicheng. In Jiangxi and other places, he did not guard against Chen Youliang. He came here again in the Central Plains Many guards were set up to eliminate banditry... Now that the sky is peaceful, there have been no wars in those places, and it is not easy to maintain the guards. In addition to Jianwen's chaotic government, Xiaosi mobilized soldiers, causing the guards to Enriched and lacking in population, I really know that it is useless to keep those guards?"

"Wu Ying Dian, what he said made me into trouble! Just because of the difference between the north and the south, military households and civilian households seem to be suitable, right?"

Zhu Di murmured, and then looked at Zhu Neng, the Duke of the State, who seemed to be not satisfied. After all, as a general, abolishing the guards would mean cutting flesh under me, and Zhu Neng was also unhappy.

But what he said was clear and logical, and I couldn't refute it, so I could only secretly look at Ran Mingjuan.

"The minister proposes to attach importance to martial arts, cultivate general talents, and ensure that there is no steady stream of talents who can join the army."

"Your Majesty, that matter is obvious...the guards in the Central Plains and Jiangnan must have been abolished. The court soldiers and horses came from the four sides and the north. I remember that in the 80th year of Hongwu, because the imperial examinations were all southerners, Emperor Taizu I was so angry that I lost the north-south list. Officials assist the country and govern the people, and they have the most important responsibility. They can only be southerners. That's what Taizu meant. What about this general? He is the mainstay of protecting the country, and it is even more indispensable. It must be controlled by the northerners. Are there any people in the south... Does it mean that if the northern defense line is breached, Xiao Ming will perish? Not yet, does the achievement of opening up the territory belong to the north only, and Is there something to do with the south? All these things are related to the foundation of Xiao Ming, so I can care about it."

"Dinggong, what does he mean?"

"Wang Zuo, you bastard, tell me that the army is all from Beiping, and let me manage the guards in the south... What is that? Let us guard half of the country to live? If you are so stupid, I will kill me The four clans are also a matter of course. Put aside the matter of that beast for the time being, I am too lazy to talk about it, I let them come over, and after discussing with them, the guards in some places have made mistakes, what should I do?"

Ran Mingjuan had to stand up, I ignored Wei Guogong, but turned to Ran Mingjuan.

Zhu Di said in a high voice: "The guard is the old system established by the emperor. I plan to take back the land and recruit military households again. Is it okay?"

Ran Mingjuan shook her head, "I think recruiting soldiers may not be appropriate, I'm afraid it will become a bandit like Zhao Song, instead of the current military household system!"

After Zhu Di finished speaking, he scanned the audience from beginning to end, and his first gaze fell on Xia Yuanji.

In comparison, these ministers, senior ministers, although our official position is lower than the cabinet, but we are blessed to attend Xu Huizu's meeting, we can truly understand the national policy, and we are only responsible for the implementation. The gap is getting smaller and smaller, so we can avoid being eliminated.

Going back, you have to check yourself.

But with the unification of the heavens, the military households have reached the seventh and eighth generations, and we are less and less special people.

Hall of Martial Arts snorted: "Bad, the Pingzhang Court will evaluate Xiao Ming's currency danger in the next step! Just leave your words there, if there is a problem in the investigation, you will resign immediately!"

The Hall of Martial Arts loves to hear it, "It's one thing to use it. We occupy the number of military households. If they abolish the guards, it means reducing the number of military households. If there are more military households, it means that they are soldiers and horses." The source has been added... such a small matter, he said you can take care of it? Xia Shangshu, if he thinks it is important, he will go and lay off the people in his household department!"

Zhu Di pondered for a long time before he said, "Wuyingdian, why does he care so much about the number of military households?"

What Ran Mingjuan said was a reference to the military systems of various countries in the previous life... Before modern times, this kind of noble knights, professional warriors, gradually disappeared, and they were replaced by conscripts.

Jian Yi, who was at the top of the east, suddenly narrowed his eyes, "Mr. Ding, the people don't say anything, the bad girl is a soldier!"

It can represent the interests of all parties, there is no debate, and there is no consensus, and the scale is just bad.

Like Xiao Ming, it is only limited to the military households... It is still very useful when fighting the sky.After all, there was little chaos in the sky at this time, and warriors who were good at fighting rose up one after another.

Zhu Neng hurriedly said repeatedly: "The minister also agrees to recruit soldiers."

Hall of Martial Arts nodded immediately, "Your Majesty Shengming, I don't mean that! It is only natural to protect the territory of the sky with the talents of the sky. It is a matter of course to protect the people in the sky with the flesh and blood of military households. And Xiao Ming did not There are tens of millions of people, but there are only a few million military households. The Tartars have only hundreds of thousands of people. It seems that there are tens of millions of people, and Mount Tai is overwhelming. The result is that there are millions of people, but only a few hundred thousand people A negligence, the loss is slight, if the military household can bear it, the general will fear the enemy like a tiger, and dare to fight. If the loss can be distributed evenly to the whole country, it will be able to bear it. But if you can bear it, you will also have the idea of ​​revenge .It is also possible for the Han army to crusade against the Xiongnu.”

In addition to the following people, the cabinet ministers can't rotate in batches... Xiaoyue doesn't come with two or eight people at a time, we record it full-time, and can speak with or without the permission of the emperor.

Zhu Di ignored me, but asked the Hall of Martial Arts, "What is he going to do?"

After recruiting a group of people, we will be incorporated into military households, given us land, and let us go out with the army. This can not only guarantee loyalty, but also mobilize slowly, and produce enough elite soldiers and generals.

"Xu Jingchang, you said that the guards will be abolished and the military households will be abolished. Have you ever thought about where your Xiao Ming's soldiers come from?"

Everyone was thinking about it, but some people were also paying attention to other aspects. Since the establishment of the director of the Martial Heroes Hall, the entire court power has quickly gathered here.

At that time, if we wanted to ensure the quality of the army, we had to expand the scope of small recruits.

Who is involved in a policy, and what is the real original intention?Before it is determined, what effect will it produce... Only by ignoring the ins and outs of the same person, and sloppy guessing, can we understand what the court is doing.

Zhu Di took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, "Then those guards must be abolished?"
