Wang Miaoyin was stunned at first, then sneered: "Brother Yu, your idea is very good, but unfortunately, it is difficult to realize. Governing the country depends on talent, and what is needed is culture. Are you sure your Beifu brothers, or Da Zi,
Do ordinary people who don’t know a few people have this ability?”
"Before the soldiers of Beifu fought for many years, they were given no land and were given nobility. But what was the result? They didn't even know how many acres of land they had in their own homes. They could only hold swords and guns in their hands, but not pens. In the end, these lands were still only
Entrust the children of aristocratic families and scholars to manage. This is your army this time. You said that the children of aristocratic families are here to join in the fun and gain military honors, but their contribution is not on the battlefield, but in the management behind. Otherwise, you think the soldiers are in the hands of the children.
Who is taking care of the weapons, the armor on the body, and the daily food and clothing expenses?"
At this point, she looked at Liu Muzhi: "Muzhi, you know this best. Not to mention the military rations and supplies provided by the rear, let's talk about the affairs of the army, leaving the children of the family, the military officials and the clerks
,How many days can this army last?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Miaoyin is right. Whether it is the supply of the rear or the management of the army, it is indeed inseparable from the children of the aristocratic family. The slaves said that they are here to gain military merit, which is biased."
Liu Yu said calmly: "Of course they have made contributions, otherwise I would not assign them titles and military merits. This is the same as the Chu-Han conflict. Liu Bang ranked first in merits, Xiao He, it is the same reason. But Miaoyin,
What I mean is that governing the country in this world cannot and should not always be the exclusive power of the children of aristocratic families. Just like fighting in the army should not be the exclusive power of the soldiers of the Beifu."
Wang Miaoyin's face changed: "You mean, you want to use the children of Beifu soldiers who are currently in those Xiangxu and rural schools to replace the children of the aristocratic families in management in the future?"
Liu Yu said calmly: "As long as you have the ability and ability, regardless of your origin, you should have the opportunity to engage in these things. If the children of aristocratic families are brave, can ride and shoot, and can fight on the battlefield, they can also join the army and directly serve in the front line troops.
. As for governance, as long as it can collect taxes for the country, levy people, and collect manpower and material resources for the country in accordance with national laws, then why must it be limited to children of aristocratic families? Fatty, not all of your civil servants are children of aristocratic families.
Well, there are also low-level scholars, self-taught commoners, and even the local people here in Qingzhou who came to defect to you this time, such as Wang Xuanmo who likes to eat big pears, he must be this person."
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Yes, this man is not considered a powerful person in Qingzhou, but he has traveled far and wide, and his level is still good. Now he is working under me, and in the future he will be a useful person to run schools and teach here in Qingzhou.
"
Wang Miaoyin gritted her teeth: "So, you want to destroy the foundation of the family and completely replace us, so you want to use these schools. My mother has seen this a long time ago, and she was really right!"
Liu Yu said seriously: "Miaoyin, if the country wants to be strong and develop, it is impossible for a few people to occupy and monopolize these resources and power forever. The same is true for aristocratic families. If it were not for the competition between aristocratic families, forcing the children and nephews to make progress, sooner or later
He will become a moth like Wang Guobao and will only dishonor the name of our ancestors. Although your Xie family has always had a very upright family tradition, your current talents are far inferior to those of your husband and Xuan Shuai. Do you deny this?"
Wang Miaoyin said in a deep voice: "That is our own business. We will re-educate our children and nephews to make progress and be prepared for danger in times of peace. Those who are unwilling to make progress will be sent to the countryside to guard a few small manors for the rest of their lives. When they
Our children and grandchildren may not even have small estates, but what you are going to do now is to take away these small estates and distribute them to outsiders. This is unacceptable to us."
Liu Yu shook his head and sighed: "Miaoyin, let me ask you something. When Sun En launched the rebellion, your descendants and nephews from aristocratic families accounted for almost all the small estates in Wu, and more than half of the population of Jin Dynasty. In the end,
The good land is all in your hands. As a result, Sun Endeng shouted loudly, and his followers were like clouds. In less than a month, eight counties fell. Hundreds of children of aristocratic families not only lost their inheritance, but also their lives.
Well, at that time, who took over these small estates, were we Beifu soldiers or demon thieves?"
The corner of Wang Miaoyin's mouth twitched slightly: "They are demon thieves, but behind them are evil organizations like the Tiandao Alliance, not..."
Liu Yu waved his hand and interrupted her: "You can't shirk your own responsibilities just because the enemy is evil and powerful. If you occupy the world's resources, you have to shoulder corresponding responsibilities. The existence of the country is first to protect the people.
, if your aristocratic family occupies these resources, but you can't even protect yourself, is it justified?"
Wang Miaoyin gritted her teeth: "That has to be the responsibility of the national army. You, Jingkou, have been exempted from tax and military service since the founding of the People's Republic of China, or you have been asked to send troops to fight. The strength of the children of our family lies in management, and your strength lies in fighting. We all have our own duties.
Otherwise, could it be that you, Jingkou, have grown and manufactured these hundreds of years of military equipment and food?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "But there is only one Jingkou in the world, with a population of only 100,000. Even including all the nursing children, we can only send out tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. Our Dajin area is thousands of miles away, with a population of millions and thousands."
Wan, do you have to rely on one Jingkou to send troops? When your Xie family formed the Beifu Army, you were facing the entire Jin Dynasty, not just one Jingkou."
Wang Miaoyin's eyes sparkled and she fell into thinking.
Liu Yu raised his eyebrows: "Actually, you know the truth very well. The reason why the children of the aristocratic family cannot protect Wu is because they have no military power, those who can fight or join the army. For many years, you have been sending them far away to Jingkou.
In remote areas like Jiangbei, we want them to survive when they are useful, but when there is peace, we wish they would disappear."
"The previous enemy was the northern barbarians, who came from the north, so the military strongholds and professional military households were placed in the north. Sun En and the others rebelled for the first time in Wu, Jiangnan, so eight counties fell in one fell swoop, because Wu
The land is just a manor land for your aristocratic families to farm and produce. You only need serfs and tenants here, not soldiers. To put it bluntly, this kind of distribution is unreasonable. When there is a real crisis, there will be no soldiers available.
, no one can protect you!"
Liu Yu looked at Liu Muzhi and continued: "The same is true for the six counties in Jiangbei, but on the other hand, here your family only needs soldiers to fight. In order to reduce the interest of the barbarians in plundering, Jiangbei was deliberately abandoned for many years, causing the people here to live in dire straits.
, we only send out soldiers or bandits, and even the food supply depends on the charity of your Wudi Manor."
