The six-dimensional pictures of emperors of all dynasties were exposed, and the ancestors panicked

Chapter 270: The palace gates of the Nine Heavens are opened, and people from all nations bow down to the emperor!

[In addition to civil administration, Li Longji also made great achievements in military affairs. ]

[Because before he ascended the throne, the Tang Dynasty was so busy with internal strife that it had no time to take care of the border.]

[The Turks and Khitans not only occupied Suiye and Tingzhou in the Western Regions, Yunzhou in the north, and the Twelve Prefectures in Liaoxi, but also harassed the people in Longyou and Hebei from time to time.]

[In 723 AD, Li Longji accepted the advice of Prime Minister Zhang Shuo and cut one-third of the border defense forces across the country, changing the government soldier system to a recruitment system.]

[120,000 soldiers were recruited from the interior to serve as guards. These were the "Long Cong Suwei", also known as the "Long March Warriors"]

[In this way, civilians from all over the country no longer have to take turns guarding the border and can focus on farming. ]

[In this way, many escapees enlisted in the army, which solved their livelihood problems and eased the conflicts between the government soldiers and the escapees.]

[And soldiers stationed in various places are conducive to strengthening training and improving combat effectiveness. ]

……

Datang.

Li Shimin twirled his beard thoughtfully.

Downsizing?

Let the soldiers return home?
It cannot be said to be wrong, because they are all young and middle-aged people in their prime.

The government soldiers were a combination of soldiers and farmers. They usually farmed at home, and when war came, they would prepare their own equipment and go to war with the army.

The biggest advantage of this system is that the country does not need to maintain an army and the financial burden is small.

However, the biggest disadvantage is that the government soldiers themselves are burdened too heavily.

Just like Wu Zhou.

There were more and more wars, and it was very likely that the soldiers would never return from the battlefield.

Even if you managed to survive the war, you wouldn't have much time to farm.

If the land is not cultivated well, the family will naturally become poorer and poorer. When the poverty reaches a certain level, they have no choice but to sell the land.

But what will we use to buy equipment after selling the land?

So this became a vicious cycle, and no one wanted to be a soldier.

Li Shimin was in deep thought.

Since the military system cannot be maintained, it is better to spend money to hire people to serve as soldiers.

As long as the physical requirements are met, it doesn't matter what your background or experience is.

As long as you are willing to join the army, it will be fine.

In this way, military service is not an obligation but a profession.

Since being a soldier can support a family, there will definitely be people willing to do this, and there will be no shortage of soldiers.

With a more rigorous selection, their quality will definitely be better than that of the soldiers in the already defeated Fubing system.

This is a good idea.

After all, there are only so many fields, so we have to work outside and accumulate resources while we work.

But the current situation is that people's livelihood has just improved...

……

Song Zhenzong period
Quality is more important than quantity.

Zhao Heng didn't understand military affairs, but he also knew this principle.

Those generals who talk about increasing the number of troops all day long are simply thinking about themselves.

On the one hand, they embezzled supplies allocated to soldiers.

On the other hand, they also wanted to use these soldiers for nothing, not for the purpose of strengthening the border defense!
There was no need for so many soldiers in the first place, and the alliance had already been signed, so there was even less need for so many soldiers.

Let these soldiers go home and farm, agriculture is the foundation of the country!
……

[In order to increase military strength, Li Longji issued the "Military Training Edict" to order the important cities in the northwest to increase the number of troops and strengthen training. ]

[Wang Maozhong, the Minister of the Imperial Household, was appointed as the Inner and Outer Stables Officer, who was fully responsible for the supply of military horses, so that the shortage of horses was replenished in a timely manner.]

[At the same time, we should vigorously develop military farms in the northwest and north of the Yellow River, expand the scope of military farms, increase food production, and solve the shortage of military food.]

[In order to better rule the surrounding ethnic groups and consolidate the border, ten military towns were set up in the border areas and guarded by Jiedushi.]

……

On the canopy.

The emperor wearing a crown sits high on the throne.

All the civil and military officials in His Majesty bowed their heads and kowtowed solemnly.

The camera flew across the Tang Palace like an eagle holding a grenade.

They flew towards Chang'an along the Suzaku Street, which was fifty meters wide and could accommodate eight carriages running side by side.

Overcoming the shouting in groups of three or two.

Passing through the streets filled with lanterns filled with laughter and play.

Across the endless stream of traffic.

Above the Daming Palace, the sunlight shines on the golden roof, brilliant and dazzling.

The golden territory of the Tang Dynasty swayed slowly like a roll of silk.

Like a drop of painted water falling into a river.

The Tang Dynasty extended from northern Vietnam in the south to Russia in the north.

To Uzbekistan in the west and to Tonghua, Jilin in the east.

Each frame shows the splendor unique to the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

……

[Beginning in 717 AD, the Tang army successively recovered Yingzhou and other thirteen states that had been occupied for seventeen years. ]

[Wang Zhongsi was dispatched to attack and destroy the Later Turkic Khanate, and to subdue the Bayegu, Tongluo, and Huihe states north of the Great Wall. The Anbei Protectorate was restored, and the vast area north of the Great Wall was unified.]

[Yang Sixu was dispatched to quell the barbarian rebellions in Guangxi, Xiangxi and other places, and to recover Jiaozhi. ]

[Sent Geshu Han to defeat Tubo successively and gain the terrain advantage of Qinghai Plateau. ]

[Sent Gai Jiayun to recapture Suiye in the Western Regions which had been occupied for 37 years.]

[Sent Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing to compete with the Arabs in the Central Asian region west of the Pamir Mountains, conquered the Bolor Kingdom, seized the northwest of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and reopened the "Silk Road". ]

[The newly established Nanzhao even begged to become a vassal but was unsuccessful.]

[The unfavorable situation of border warfare since the Wu Zetian period has been completely reversed by Li Longji. ]

……

Wu Zhou.

Wu Zetian's face turned dark.

If you want to say something, say it nicely!

Don't pull or step on me!
……

【At that time, the Tang Dynasty had a total of 490,000 elite field soldiers and more than 80,000 excellent horses. Its power spread throughout the country and swept across the wilderness. 】【The military power of the Tang Dynasty shocked all directions. The 72 vassal states including Fuma (now Rome), Dashi, Huihe, Bohai, Khitan, Xi, Silla, Japan, etc. all submitted to the Tang Dynasty and sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty to pay tribute to Emperor Xuanzong. They dared not to be disloyal. 】

[It can be said that "the gates of the nine heavens are opened, and people from all over the world pay homage to the emperor"]

……

Great Qin.

Ying Zheng covered his chest with his hands expressionlessly.

coming.

It's a familiar feeling again...

This boy is not inferior to Ying Heng, Ying Che, and Ying Shimin!
Well...the great-great-grandson is called Ying Longji!

Ok, deal!
Hmm? Actually, the disease is not bad.

I am sick, Longji...

Oh my, it’s so difficult for me to choose!

Liu Bang, who was standing by, suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body!
There is murderous intent! ?

A furtive glance... Huh!

The face is like dead water, and the eyes are like bright stars!
What is this old man thinking about?
It made Naigong's scalp numb...

...Isn't he thinking about changing his name again?

Why does this person always believe in weird things?
……

Big man.

Liu Bang stroked his beard, not caring at all.

"It's OK, not bad."

"But I feel it's still a little worse than being sick."

"Alas... there is nothing I can do. This is all because I am too strong!"

Lu Zhi standing aside had a blank expression on her face.

They are all descendants of that woman...

The predictions are quite accurate.

……

On the canopy.

The sound of reading can be heard in all parts of the Tang Dynasty.

A group of literati were sitting in a restaurant on Zhuque Street.

They were very dignified and talked and laughed happily.

The camera is pointed at one person.

He was wearing a fu hat and a white robe, leaning against the window and drinking.

A line of text appeared next to him.

"Poet Immortal Li Bai"

"When the great roc rises with the wind, it soars up to ninety thousand miles..."

"The Zhao guest's Hu tassels are slender, and the Wu hook is bright in the frost and snow..."

A younger man sitting opposite him was drinking with him.

"Poet Saint Du Fu"

"Good rain knows the season, when spring is here……"

"How is Mount Tai? The green mountains of Qi and Lu are endless..."

Each person is marked with a name, title and a few lines of poetry.

"Poet-Buddha - Wang Wei"

"Poet Star Meng Haoran"

"Poetry Madness: He Zhizhang"

"Poet Emperor·Seven-character quatrain master·Wang Changling"

"poetry……"

……

[While focusing on both people's livelihood and military affairs, Li Longji also established the Jixiandian Academy, which collected nearly 54,000 volumes of books from past dynasties and more than 28,400 volumes of works written by Tang Dynasty scholars.]

【So-called "the flourishing of book collections never occurred before the Kaiyuan Period."】

[At the same time, the Tang Dynasty ritual system encyclopedia "The Great Tang Kaiyuan Ritual" and the law encyclopedia "The Great Tang Liudian" were compiled. ]

【And vigorously develop education and cultivate talents. 】

[People were allowed to set up private schools, and every county in the country had to have a school, so even rural children knew how to be polite.]

【The development of social economy has also led to unprecedented cultural prosperity. 】

[Li Bai, Du Fu, Wang Wei, Meng Haoran, He Zhizhang, Wang Changling, Cui Hao, Wang Zhihuan, Gao Shi, Cen Shen...]

[These brilliant names in the history of Chinese literature, as well as the calligrapher Zhang Xu, the "Cursive Saint", the painter Wu Daozi, the "Painting Saint", and the musician Li Guinian, all lived in the Kaiyuan period and left many immortal chapters.]

……

Late Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao is like a rat dropping a rice warehouse!
Open your hands! Write quickly!
What a poem! What a poem!
So many...good poems!
Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang on the side looked at Cao Cao, whose eyes were really shining, and took a step away from him at the same time.

Don’t understand, but respect.

……

The period of Cao Wei and Emperor Ming
Cao Pi also wrote furiously!

"The roc rises with the wind in one day..."

"What a great poem! It really touches my heart!"

"The bright moon in Qin and the fortress in Han, the people who marched thousands of miles have not returned yet..."

"Poet Emperor, that makes sense!"

"The scenery is in line with the logic, and the poem is about the meaning. This seven-character quatrain is wonderfully written!"

……

　If Li Longji died early, his evaluation would surpass that of Li Shimin.

　　His martial arts skills are not as good as Li Shimin's... In the past 5,000 years of history, there are not many people who can compete with Li Shimin in martial arts...

　　But there are no shortcomings (limited to the early death version), but people's livelihood and cultural governance are far beyond the mark!

　　Coupled with the endless reverie left by early death, it is really extraordinary.
