Chapter 378

This time, Zhao Xi fished in troubled waters and made partial adjustments to the military system of the imperial court. He did not say that it would become a permanent rule. He hoped that the results would allow the ministers and workers to see the changes and consciously implement the military border system in the future.

Being able to rotate the Bianliang Forbidden Army, Hebei Forbidden Army, and Western Army is already a windfall, and Zhao Xi did not continue.

Although Zhao Xi planned it like this at the beginning, he didn't expect it to be carried out smoothly. He prepared to have two or three years to compete with the court.

A fight with weapons caused too many accidents.For Zhao Xi, the result is good, at least the relationship with the court has not become rigid.

Even though Wen Yanbo had some small bumps, they were all within the digestible range, which was fine.

Fundamentally, Zhao Xi didn't intervene in the interest that was moving this time, that is, the income from the barracks, and handed it directly to the Privy Council, which also made Wen Yanbo quite powerful in implementing this series of measures.

Even the criticisms of those ministers and workers, Wen Yanbo also took it all down.

Criticism without a correct reason, not to mention the officials and the prince ignoring it, even if the officials and the prince have tendencies, Wen Yanbo can bear it.

Originally, the imperial court had already made some motions regarding the paving of the Bianliang barracks, but it involved too many aspects, and they were all nobles, so they have been shelved.

This time, there were two excuses of fighting with weapons and disobeying orders. The key was the cooperation of the Cao family, the Gao family and other old six families. This only measure of benefit was successfully completed.

Originally, it did not move, or it could not be moved, mainly because of the civil and military family of the Kai Dynasty...~Regardless of the literature and martial arts, the nobles continued during the Kai Dynasty. power.

This matter can only be done by Zhao Xi taking the lead.

Compared with the income of Zhao Xi's industrial system in these years, the income of the shop is nothing at all, not even a drop in the bucket.

What's more, because of the fighting, they put this private gain on the table, so the collective silence.

If it is really because of this small profit from the shop that the entire industrial system of His Royal Highness is thrown away, it is a small loss that outweighs the big.

Due to the change of the forbidden army to the new army year by year, the demand for materials such as steel and coal has increased.

The laying of tracks has never stopped, which has promoted the development of related downstream industries.

In the past few years, the tax revenue of the imperial court has doubled compared with that of the Qing calendar year. The disadvantage of redundant troops has been significantly alleviated, and the imperial court has become more and more prosperous.

Even if it is rich, the imperial court still has something to say about some expenses.

It's like compensatory transfer.The ministers and workers of the court agreed that the Privy Council should be responsible... because the Privy Council has the income of the barracks.

This is really not Zhao Xi's intention to dig a hole for Wen Yanbo, it is a big deal that everyone can see.

It was confiscated by the imperial court, and there was no legitimate reason to refuse it, but just looking at it like this and letting the Privy Council...~that is, Wen Yanbo take the lead, naturally it will not let it go easily.

So, the second round of criticism against Wen Yanbo began.

When Zhao Xi saw the first memorial like this, he really wanted to laugh.

Lao Wen, it's not my fault, I really didn't want to interfere.

The benefits that can be seen by the whole Bianliang, the benefits that are clear to all courts, no one can eat too badly.

Maybe Wen Yanbo didn't intend to play tricks, but before he had time to tidy up, someone was worrying about him.

"The cost of compensating the transfer of military soldiers to civilian status should indeed be borne by this part of the income. It is the right way to compensate the army with income from the military camp."

"Junshi, Yanbo also thinks that should be the case. But now that the shop has just been taken back, the Privy Council has no income, so it should be paid by the left and right treasury. In the coming year, there will be a compensatory transfer of soldiers to civilians, and the Privy Council will inevitably bear the responsibility."

What got back was the pavement, Wen Yanbo had no money in his hand, and even if Sima Guang spoke out about Datian, the Privy Council still had no money.

"Wen Xianggong, the large-scale transfer of soldiers to civilians for compensation happened this time due to the abolition of the Bianliang Forbidden Army. Is it possible that the country still has compensatory transfers to civilians every year?"

"Why not? Now that the country's military equipment has been improved and the new army has expanded, it will inevitably lead to chaos in the affairs of the forbidden army in various places. Compensatory soldiers and civilians can be established as a permanent rule, and all kinds of income from the forbidden army camps in various places will be summarized and managed in a unified way. Provide guarantees for the transfer of military soldiers to civilians."

This... this is really a surprise.

Zhao Xi has to say that an elite is an elite.This time, Zhao Xi proposed compensatory conversion of soldiers to civilians. Zhao Xi originally wanted to set a standard and provide a reference for future military reforms.

Unexpectedly, Wen Yanbo already wanted to promote it in Guochao.

Wen Yanbo said this in a hurry, and he was stunned as soon as the words came out.

"Officials, Your Highness, what Prime Minister Wen said is true!"

Fu Bi wondered if this was planned by His Highness the Crown Prince long ago?But this measure does have value.

Every time there is a catastrophe, the imperial court will turn the refugees into armies, increasing the burden on the imperial court again and again.But there has never been a measure to reduce the burden on the court from the army.

Even if it is the Qingli year reform, it will only be adjusted on the basis of the existing army.

With the efforts of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince over the years, the military expenditure has been greatly reduced today.

If the compensatory transfer of military soldiers to civilians can be implemented for a long time without arousing public anger, it is indeed a good strategy.

"Implementing this strategy requires a lot of financial backing. Now the imperial court does have a surplus, but if we really want to fully implement it in all parts of the imperial court, there will be a situation where we have to eat more than we need."

Didn't you say just now that the Privy Council will be responsible for the transfer funds?Why did you say it again?

"What Junshi said is very true. Since the implementation of the transfer of the forbidden army in various places will cause losses to the court, and the transfer of the forbidden army in Bianliang will need to be borne by the Privy Council?"

Wen Yanbo has put aside the government affairs and purely argued.

He felt that what he said baldly should have been thought of by himself.But he needs to think carefully. If this meeting is directly confirmed, what kind of result will it lead to in the future, and he, Wen Yanbo, will be blamed again.

Therefore, we directly set aside the topic and turned it into a pure debate.How many times, once the court entered into an argument, nothing came of it.

"At this time and at that time, not all the military camps in other states are located in the state city. Besides, can the military state of Guochao be compared with Bianliang?"

"Since it's the compensation for the conversion of the army to civilians, no matter where the army is in the country, the compensation standard should be the same. The counties and prefectures can't compare with the income of the Bianliang camp. Naturally, the government needs to subsidize it. This is not feasible!"

What is going on at the meeting?This is not a few words, it directly becomes the feasibility of a policy implementation.

Zhao Xi knew that if this continued, the meeting this time would never be settled.

"The Privy Council is the administrative department of the imperial court and does not engage in business operations. Whether it is renting out the storefront or using the storefront for business, it is somewhat nondescript."

"Recovering the ownership of the barracks shop is not to allow the Privy Council to engage in business affairs. If that is the case, the gains outweigh the losses, and it is even more chaotic than each battalion's own management."

"Xi thought that the Privy Council could use the method of rushing to sell the shop to merchants. In this way, the Privy Council would have compensation funds, and the imperial court would not need to subsidize it."

Zhao Xi didn't say anything about the military camps in the counties and prefectures. Since Wen Yanbo mentioned it, it means that the seeds have been planted and he will perfect it.
