Settle Down In Tang Dynasty

"Good, good, good!"

Princess Pingyang patted her hands and clapped her hands in praise: "Youyang has a bright mind and bright eyes. I'm not disappointed. But it's a pity that the princess's house is too small for you to stay long. "

Xue Lang sincerely said: "as long as your highness needs Xue Lang, you can see Xue Lang. It will never change! "

Princess Pingyang was stunned. She reached out and picked up the tea bowl. She said calmly, "Youyang, be careful. This palace will take it seriously."

"The words from the bottom of my heart come from the heart and will not change."

Xue Lang said calmly, but his expression was quite firm. Princess Pingyang raised her eyes to look at him. She didn't make any evaluation. She couldn't see what she thought. However, Xue Lang didn't mind. He was determined to be his own.

princess's Royal Highness directly changed the topic: "today's recruitment of young people comes to the army for military purposes." You Yang, commander of Cang Cao and Tu Cao, I want to recruit 50000 soldiers. May the logistics keep up with me

Xue Lang calculated the inventory in his mind and said, "if your highness raises 50000 soldiers, there will be about 30% grain shortage in the warehouse. In addition, my subordinate wants to know whether the 50000 soldiers recruited by your highness are recruited locally or from other places? "

Princess Pingyang said, "since they were recruited on the spot, they directly selected elite soldiers from the government troops to join the frontier garrison."

Xue Lang directly put all kinds of data he brought on the record table, and Su Rong said: "Your Highness, then, I have to remind your highness that it is not strange that some people in the family of the soldiers will die of starvation or sell their children and daughters in the coming year. Please prepare your highness to prevent the army from wavering."

Princess Pingyang nodded.

Xue Lang continued: "therefore, in the next year's farming, please allow your highness to allow the frontier army to help with the farming, so as to avoid the starvation and death of the families due to the lack of labor force."

In the early Tang Dynasty, the reason why the government soldiers occupied the majority of the army was that the population was small and the productivity was low. In the ancient times when there were no high-quality and high-yield seeds and mechanization to improve productivity, farming was a matter of great need for labor.

The princess of Pingyang recruited 50000 soldiers into the garrison, which means that there is a lack of 50000 men and 50000 strong laborers. In Xue Lang's opinion, the impact is unpredictable, but one thing is very clear, that is, many families will reduce their output due to lack of strong labor force, and there may be famine and other phenomena. While watching the data collection,

saw that Princess Xue Lang was worried when he recruited fifty thousand soldiers from the soldiers. If it is drawn from the local government troops in weizeguan, the impact will not be so great. If it is drawn from the local soldiers in weizeguan, Xue Lang's worries will become a reality.

Princess Pingyang said, "thank you very much for Youyang's worries. I have expected that. Therefore, the 50000 soldiers were recruited on a temporary basis, and they would still be sent back to their families when spring ploughing next year. In order to solve the shortage of military food and labor shortage

Xue Lang couldn't help but change his color: "isn't your Highness's soldier in vain? Li Gong's advice... "

Princess Pingyang raised her hand and stopped Xue Lang from going on. Instead, she said calmly, "I know what Youyang wants to say. However, is it my power or the survival of the people that matters? Can you weigh in Youyang's mind?"

Xue Lang said in a hurry: "it's important for the people! But it's about recruiting... "

Xue Lang choked -

, but the recruitment of the princess is a matter of life and death, he only knows that the history is next year, but which day did not record. What if it's next year? There are more soldiers in the royal highness of the princess, and the odds are bigger, aren't they?

"What is it about?" Princess

asked her indifferently.

Xue Lang shook his head and said, "in fact, the root cause of all the problems is the lack of labor force. The only way for soldiers to improve their combat effectiveness is to train more. Therefore, the consumption of military supplies must be increased. If you spend more time on training, you will naturally have less time to work. When you harvest, the yield will certainly decrease. Therefore, there may be famine. "

Princess Pingyang nodded again: "but also."

The court first had Jieli Khan to deal with, and then he had to deal with Liu heikai. I think it's impossible to take out extra soldiers to expand the army of Princess Pingyang. Therefore, after Princess Pingyang was promoted to a general, the number of people under her did not increase. However, when the cold winter comes, it's good that the Turks come less. If there are more, we should rely on Wei ZEGUAN That's dangerous!

thought her royal highness also foresaw these problems, but had to expand the border troops from the local soldiers. However, there is not a small gap between the quality of the government soldiers and the border troops, but a large gap. Xue Lang felt a lot of pressure to train the soldiers into the quality of the border army.

After thinking for a while, Xue Lang had an idea and asked, "Your Highness, can we adopt the rotation training system?"

Princess highness frowning, asked: "rotation training system......" As the name suggests, it's a rotation training system? "

Xue Lang said: "yes, it's training in turn. The newly recruited 50000 soldiers will be trained with all their strength, while the border army which has already become an army can be divided into two groups or three groups and train in turn. For example, on a single day, the first army trains, while the second army does the work; on the other hand, even on the other hand. "

Princess Pingyang's eyes coagulated and nodded: "this method is also feasible. All garrison troops are successful in training. As long as they are not idle for a long time, their combat effectiveness can be guaranteed. Youyang, this method is feasible! It's just that... "Xue Lang then said, "military food has become a problem."

"Exactly."

Princess Pingyang said, "before the autumn harvest of the next year, the imperial court will have no spare power to support our army."

The power of the court was directed against Jie Li and Liu Hei Kai!

Xue Lang said: "about this matter, my subordinate has a little immature idea, please refer to one or two."

"Youyang, go ahead, please."

Xue Lang said: "speaking of grain, the most abundant grain storage belongs to the rich and luxurious families, right?"

Princess Pingyang took a look at Xue Lang and resolutely said, "the soldiers under my command are soldiers of the imperial court, and they can't be robbed."

Xue Langji said with a bitter smile, "where do you want to go, your highness? My subordinates mean that we can make a deal with these rich people. For example, we can exchange all our new grain this year for their old grain. Is it feasible to exchange one catty of new grain for two catties of old grain? " Princess

did not answer, but looked at Xue Lang with a strange sense of joy. Xue Lang was seen inexplicably: "why does your highness see your subordinates so much?"

Princess Pingyang said, "I'm lucky to have Youyang who is so good at foreign countries."

"Ah?"

Xue Lang is still puzzled.

When it comes to robbing the royal family, it's not feasible for those who are bold enough to rob the royal family, but those who don't have the courage to follow the rule of the imperial court, even those who don't have the courage to follow the imperial court

Xue Lang nodded to show his understanding. However, these have something to do with him?!

Princess Pingyang saw through his thoughts at a glance and said with a smile: "there are many differences between Youyang and other people. It seems that in Youyang's eyes, the aristocratic family has nothing to fear, but it's very common. When necessary, you can even use one or two."

Xue Lang, Khan, was seen by his royal highness. In fact, in his eyes, there is no awe of the sage Li Yuan. Even for his royal highness, he admired her talents and talents, and appreciated his Royal Highness's idea of saving his life, more than the awe of his royal highness.

, however, these things can not be addressed to Her Highness.

, Xue long also learned the royal highness of his royal highness: "it is because the people are not familiar with those families, nor have they heard of their glorious history, so they can not stand in awe."

Pingyang Princess indifferent smile, also do not know whether to believe Xue Lang's words.
