Five years of garrison on the border, shocked Zhu Yuanzhang who went south to inspect

Chapter 222 It’s good to be patient

Zhu Tong and the Jin officials were all taken aback when they heard the words.

Isn't he in charge of the army?Why are these three conditions related to politics?
Lan Yu continued: "The military service system has many shortcomings. The quality and combat effectiveness of the recruited soldiers are uneven, which will have a great impact on the war. I think the military system should be changed to a conscription system."

A group of civil and military officials were stunned.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, in order to maintain national stability, the government specially set up various types of household registration. For example, household registration was under the management of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and craftsman household registration was under the management of the Ministry of Industry.

What makes Zhu Yuanzhang most proud is the military service system he established. Soldiers have their own fields and live in a specific place. Once they join the army, their families will serve in the military for generations. If one person is sick or If he dies, a second person will take his place.

Such soldiers could be maintained at first, but later on, the soldiers had no livelihood. Coupled with the pressure of work, many people chose to escape.

Therefore, Lan Yu first started in the military department because he wanted to improve the quality of the team.

But Zhu Tong and other officials were startled and said quickly: "Commander Lan, this is the rule of the imperial court. If we change it without authorization, I am afraid it will arouse the anger of the imperial court. In that case, we cannot bear this responsibility! "

"That's right, Commander Lan, think twice before acting!"

No one expected that Lan Yu would be so presumptuous when he first came to Jin.

Sure enough, a traitor.

What a guts!
Seeing that everyone had objections, Lan Yu smiled contemptuously and said lightly: "This is King Su's will."

"Gah..."

Everyone stopped. You look at me, I look at you. Is this King Su’s will?

Isn't this the emperor's order?
Isn't it illegal for them to do this?
When he came to Jin, Zhu Tuo had already discussed a detailed plan with him.

The reason why Jiubian in the North is so miserable is that, in addition to the Mongolian invasion, there is another underlying factor, that is, the folk customs in Jiubian are too barren, the population is sparse, and sometimes there are hungry people.

And reversing this situation will not take a day or two.

Zhu Tuo worked hard in Jin for half a year before he could barely maintain the stability of Jin. In the next few years, what he will do is to improve the quality of life in Jin from various aspects such as military, economy, and people's livelihood.

Therefore, when Lan Yu came here, Zhu Tuo talked a lot with him.

Seeing that no one had any objections, Lan Yu continued: "Regarding food stamps, His Highness Prince Su means to set a selling price for large quantities of food stamps like wheat. If the price exceeds the price, the court will let the food stamps be transferred to the government." Press it down. If it goes any lower, the imperial court will buy it."

This method was also proposed by Zhu Tuo, so that farmers can make money by farming.
In this way, the food shortage problem in Shanxi will be solved.

Therefore, the ministers had no objections.

The third article, restarting China and France, has caused great controversy.

Sino-French is a system that has been implemented since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. It is a system that allows salt merchants to go to the border, pay grain, and then receive official distribution.

But now, those salt merchants began to recruit troops and transport their food to the border town, which led to the occupation of the border town.

When Zhu Tuo was in Jin Dynasty, he had issued strict orders not to sell any land or property.

Therefore, the merchants of Ming Dynasty had to travel thousands of miles to transport grain and grass to Jin.

The merchants of Jin State will also rise rapidly because of this.

With the economic development of Jin State, exchanges with various Mongolian ethnic groups will become more frequent.

By then, more merchants will go to Mongolia to do business and continue to sell silk, porcelain, salt and other things to Mongolia.

In that case, Mongolia's industry would be severely hit and could only produce furs and livestock as a source of raw materials for the Ming Dynasty.Once Mongolia becomes independent from the Ming Dynasty, their financial resources will drop significantly.

Zhu Tong advised: "Commander Lan, this matter is not trivial. Why don't we report it to the government first, and then we can continue after the government agrees."

"No need, just follow King Su's orders." This policy. "

"But if it's in the hall..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Lan Yu's sharp eyes and glared at him so hard that he didn't dare to speak anymore.

"It's nothing but, if there is any problem during the execution, I will take full responsibility for it. If there are results, it will be the contribution of King Su, do you understand?"

Zhu Tong heard the words and nodded quickly, lowering his head and saying nothing.

However, Sapphire's behavior reminded him of a familiar person.

who is it?

Zhu Tong thought for a long time and found out that it was the rebellious Yao Guangxiao. He recalled that Yao Guangxiao had always behaved unruly in Taiyuan and did not pay attention to the court at all.

If he hadn't insisted that all his actions were under the orders of Prince Su, he, the traitor, would have been killed eight hundred times.

After Lan Yu completed the matter, he went to Dingbian County to meet with Li Su, Cheng Shoude, and other generals.

Lan Yu immediately took out the map and began to direct.

"Li Su, you go to fight outside the Fourth Prince Banner. Cheng Shoude, you lead a small force to kill Shuo Kingdom."

"Then he sent a letter to the King of Yan in the land of Yan, ordering him to go south from Beiping, occupy the 'land around Langjuxu Mountain', and monitor the entire vast sea."

"We are divided into three groups to monitor the movements of the Mahamu clan. If he dares to mess around, we will immediately send troops to attack their tribe."

Li Su shook his head and warned: "Commander Lan, Prince Su once signed a truce treaty with Mahamu, so don't start a war easily."

"I understand, so when we invade those areas, it is equivalent to putting a sharp blade on Mahamu's head. As long as he dares to resist, he will be killed by this sword immediately. If he does not resist, he will be killed by a sword. Dull sword, slowly annexing Mongolia, do you understand? "

"As ordered!"

No one would question his use of troops, so Li Su led his troops to the Fourth Prince Banner, and Cheng Shoude went to Shuo.

During this period, Mahamu also sent troops to regain several tribes and strengthen his own power.

However, he also noticed a very important thing. Some small tribes surrendered to the Ming Dynasty because they were afraid of being attacked, and the entire tribe moved closer to the Ming Dynasty.

boom!
Serving the Ming Dynasty is really a disgrace to us Mongolians!

Especially after receiving reports from the scouts about the battle situation on the front line, he became even more anxious. He immediately stood up and shouted angrily: "The Ming Dynasty has gone too far to bully others. The three fronts are attacking at the same time, pressing forward step by step!"

"Commander, you have to be patient." Arutai comforted him.

"Patience, patience, there's nothing you can do about it? Now that Zhu Tuo has returned to Beijing, do you still need to be afraid?"

Mahamu suddenly became furious and shouted at the scout: "Tell me, who is the current coach of the Ming Dynasty? I have to send troops once to give him a disincentive and show him the majesty of my Mongolian people."

"Lan Yu." Qin Yu said calmly.

"Lanyu?" Qin Yu looked into her eyes.

Mahamu's face turned pale with fright. He suddenly sat down again and said with a smile, "I think it's better to be patient."

"Uncle Emperor, are you going too far in this way?"

Zhu Yunxuan came to Prince Su's Mansion and asked with a livid face.

Zhu Tuo looked at Zhu Yunxuan, who was blocking the door, and said with a smile: "Nephew, I still have some things to deal with. Why don't you wait until I finish them and let's talk about it?"
