Your majesty is awesome

Chapter 693 Exactly Used to Inspire Soldiers to Make Contributions (Part [-])
"Yes, this matter is indeed a big problem. I am also very worried and don't know how to solve it."

The official also let out a long sigh, and his eyes fell on the distressed Cai Jing, and then his eyes turned crookedly, and fell on Tong Guan.

What can he do about the government affairs that Cai Jingdu cannot handle?
Tong Guan bowed his head and said very modestly that the servants are only good at military affairs, and they are really powerless in terms of politics.

"These national policies are still shouldered by Cai Xiang, and the servants will stop talking nonsense, just like a laughingstock..."

Hearing this, Cai Jing suddenly felt a sting in his heart, glanced at Tong Guan, and cursed a few words of hometown trash in his heart.

But he also knew that he couldn't think of a better idea. As a eunuch, how could he be smarter than himself?

"Could it be that, apart from the imperial court ordering the states and counties to organize the relocation of the people, Cai Aiqing has no other good strategy?"

The official Zhao Ji ignored the two's careful thoughts, but continued to ask Cai Jing.

Cai Jing plucked his long gray beard for a long time, but in the end he could only brace himself and shake his head.

"Forgive me for my incompetence. Apart from this, I really can't think of a better plan."

It wasn't until this time that the official smiled calmly and shook his fingers lightly.

"I have an idea, which can solve the problem of the restoration of the old land and the migration of the people, and also allow those who have returned to the territory of the Song Dynasty to recruit experienced soldiers to resist the enemy in the shortest possible time. Invasion of foreign enemies."

Both Cai Jing and Tong Guan were very surprised and their eyes fell on the smiling face of the official.

If you say that you have great experience in cultivation, or that you have made breakthroughs in artistic attainments, we can still believe it.

But you said that your brain, which has been engaged in cultivation, art, and flirting with women, actually understands national affairs better than us. This is really the sun rising from the west.

Seeing the expressions and eyes full of disbelief in the shock of the two, the official curled his lips secretly, what's wrong, look down on me being so brave and powerful?

Cai Jing lowered his head for the first time, saluted the official with a smile on his face.

"The old minister is dull, please let the officials express it."

"The strategy I'm talking about is the same one that was used in the Qin and Han Dynasties in the past: the system of awarding land for meritorious service."

"The system of granting land for meritorious service, the veteran seems to have heard of it." Cai Jing's eyes also brightened.

#####
Facing the shocked expressions of these two close ministers, the officials, who had done their homework in advance, proudly showed off the pros and cons of the meritorious land granting system.

Moreover, the restored old land happened to be on the border of the Great Song Dynasty. In that kind of place, friction with foreign barbarians could easily occur.

If you want to migrate people from other places, it is easy to cause disputes. The important thing is, those ordinary people who can only dig food in the fields to survive.

How could it be the opponents of those foreign barbarians who are skilled in horse bows and horses?
But if the meritorious service granting land system is adopted, it will be different. First of all, those who can obtain land in the newly occupied frontier are all meritorious soldiers.

After the war, they were able to stay in the frontier areas and farm.

If they stay, their relatives and family members will naturally come, and the natural population can stay in the local area.

What's more, which of these meritorious soldiers is not a battle-tested veteran driver.

Once something happens, they can immediately recruit an army to resist the invasion of foreign barbarians.

Even the small problem of thieves can be solved without the need for the imperial court to send additional troops to recruit these local soldiers again.

Cai Jing stared straight at the official Zhao Ji, listening to the official's already familiar opinion.

I have to admit that the official's method is perfect for the newly occupied land.

The imperial court didn't need to worry about how to persuade the people to move to the border towns, and it could even save a lot of money.

There is also no need to worry about some officials doing something that both people and gods are indignant about, leading to major changes.

Even Tong Guan's eyes lit up when he heard it. Indeed, if the system of awarding land for military merit was implemented in the Song Dynasty, it would be typical and unrealistic.

But on the restored old land, on those recaptured territories, those lands were awarded to the soldiers.

The soldiers received benefits and were grateful to the imperial court. At the same time, the soldiers also had a place to settle down after the war.

"The officials are wise, and the servants think that this strategy is a great good, and it is far better than letting the people of Zhuzhou counties leave their homes and cause complaints."

Nima... grabbed the old man's lines again, Cai Jing hated in his heart, and hurriedly opened his mouth to grab the conversation.

"The veteran also thinks that this strategy is feasible. If it can be limited to recovering the old land and adopting the system of granting land for military merit to fill the border areas, the resistance to implementing this strategy will definitely be much less."

"It seems that you also think this strategy is very good. Then Cai Aiqing, I will work hard for you to deal with this matter and solve it as soon as possible. It is just used to motivate the soldiers to make contributions."

When Cai Jing and Tong Guan said goodbye and left, the official family who had stayed up all night, although the body was very tired at this moment, the spirit was very excited.

#####
When he came to the desk, he started to pick up a pen, put it on the rice paper, and wrote a letter to Xiao Gao, who had made great achievements in the far northwestern border.

In the letter, the official Zhao Ji first praised Xiao Gao very much, and then showed off very embarrassingly as a teacher and got you a Shangfang sword.

In addition, the meritorious land granting system you proposed, Xiao Gao, I think is very good.

After the teacher's hard arguments and hard persuasion, the matter was finally settled. Xiao Gao, you can tell those brave soldiers of the Song Dynasty to attack the city and build a stronghold.

In addition, as a teacher, I have dreamed that in the not-too-distant future, Xiao Gaoyou will lead thousands of troops to surround the Xingqing Mansion, the capital of the Xixia King.

The fairy boarding boat was raised, and the thunder cannon was played, blowing up the Xixia king's capital into smoke, and the Xixia thieves had nowhere to hide.

Even the lord of Xixia fell to the ground and wailed, begging me to spare his life.

Since he begged me for mercy in his dream, Xiao Gao, if you capture this beast, you don't need to hurt his life, just send him to Bianliang, Tokyo.

Yang Jian at the side studied the ink patiently and yawned covertly, but the official couldn't stop writing, and wrote a full two to three thousand words, and then he stopped writing.

Put the letter with the seal and stuff it into the envelope personally, and handed it to Yang Jian who was beside him and said solemnly.

"Turn back and wait for the Shangshu Fangjian, and deliver them urgently together. Be sure to let Xiao Gao know my intentions as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, the officials, the servants will go to supervise now."

Only then did the official lay himself down on the couch contentedly, and closed his eyes with peace of mind.

Not long after, there was a sound of snoring, Xiaotian was awakened with a start, and he walked lightly to the side of the couch, then curled up into a ball, and fell asleep there sweetly.
