Chapter 25

Baojia method is an organizational form of "combining troops with the people" that began to be implemented in the reforms of Wang Anshi of the Northern Song Dynasty in another world.

With ten households as one a, five a.m., ten guarantees as one major guarantee, the strong men in the country are organized and trained during the slack season to become militias. In a sense, it is a national general mobilization. On the one hand, it enhances the organizational and combat effectiveness of the lower-level people. On the other hand, these autonomous militias can undertake public security affairs such as arresting and stealing, significantly reduce the court's expenses in local public security, and save the court's income.

The Baojia Law is a very important part of Wang Anshi's new law. Unfortunately, after Wang Anshi stepped down, the new law was also abolished. In the late Northern Song Dynasty, the dispute between the new party and the old party had reached a point where no matter whether the law itself was good or bad, as long as the other party supported me, I would definitely oppose it. Anyone who opposed me would definitely support me, which was irrational.

Later, in the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, Wang Anshi's "Baojia" system was picked up, but its purpose was not what Wang Anshi wanted to "converge troops to the people", but the Baojia system of continuous positioning in feudal centralized rule. For example, ten families are one family, and as long as one of them commits a crime and the other nine companies fail to report it, the whole family is in a row. Although the structure is not much different from Wang Anshi's Baojia system, its nature has changed.

During the Republic of China period, a certain chairman began to implement the baojia system again across the country. Under the control of the National Government, these baojia and baojia gradually formed the characteristics of militarization, police and spy development, which was integrated with the baojia, greatly compressing the living space of the Communist Party. However, the incompetence of the baojia themselves made these local militia organizations called "gang training" unable to play a major role in the end.

Local autonomous organizations such as "Baojia" and "Groupe Training" are usually controlled by the court, and each security chief is selected by the government. Once the court loses control, the local organizations have been formed and can still have a certain combat power.

During this barbarian invasion, a large area of ​​land north of the Huanghe River. After the army was defeated, the people could only escape unorganized and orderly or be massacred. If there were civil organizations that could gather together even without an official government, on that large area of ​​land, there were only 200,000 barbarian troops, and it would be difficult to go to several states in a row. It would be like entering a land of no one. It would have to wait until Gan Yushu worked hard to gather the remaining soldiers and defeated generals from Yi, Lu and other states, Ningjiang wiped out Mu Bugu and went north from Huozhou, and then began to worry about the instability in the rear.

The "Baojia" system that combines troops with the people is the top priority that Ningjiang must implement in any case. Although under the current form, those who serve as the guarantor must be those powerful and famous local gentry. However, even with the lowest-level organizational strength, organization is far better than non-organization. The biggest role of the "Baojia" system is to be able to organize and mobilize the nation's strong men directly through household registration management.

The new Baojia system naturally caused great controversy in the court. After all, this is different from rectifying military disciplines. It prevents generals from deducting and exploiting military pay from the lower-level soldiers. Although it greatly breaks the current situation in the army, the Confucian officials who used to say that corruption in military pay is right no matter what, no matter what, they cannot say that it is right to embezzle military pay.

However, this Baojia system has formed a large number of autonomous militias among the people. Although according to the protection of each family, only the "good family" can enter Baojia. All the security guards are appointed by the government. The court can effectively control them in its own hands, but whether there will be any future problems is difficult to explain.

Ning Jiang can only say that these people are really thinking too much. When has it been, and can also consider the "futures" problems in more than ten or twenty years later.

Although he encountered considerable opposition, this time, Emperor Song Shao always stood on his side. In addition, these high-ranking officials in the court were all gentry in their hometowns. Considering that their respective families in the local area would undoubtedly become "guardians". These organized local militias were indeed a part of protecting their hometowns. Under the power of the emperor, the voices of opposition gradually decreased.

Under Ningjiang's request, all the regiment training envoys of militia in various places were held by low-level generals. There is nothing to say about this. After all, those Confucian officials are not good at it, and they actually don't bother to do it.

The next move in Ningjiang's plan to change the Baojia system and gradually transfer the leadership of militias in various places to the hands of these low-level generals will certainly not be foolish enough to say it at this time. After all, the military is built with the people, the Baojia regiment will be trained to establish the most basic organizational and combat power among the people. Even if these militias are controlled by those local gentry, it is a leap forward for him, which can greatly offset the barbarians' strength "everyone can fight". After all, the Chinese side does have an advantage in numbers.

After the court unified its opinions, the Baojia Law was implemented at an extremely fast speed. The Great Zhou Dynasty's management of household registration was originally very strict, and the Baojia Law was organized by household registration and was organized by household registration. Each large guarantee formed a militia regiment. Under strict household registration management, it was originally a simple matter. Although it was extremely controversial at the beginning, it was actually much simpler when it was implemented than rectifying the long-standing issue of deducting military pay.

However, Song Shao and Ning Jiang both knew that the next step of real trouble was about to come, and the overwhelming court discussion was almost inevitable...

***

Far from the south of the capital, several blast furnaces have been built at some point in the long mountainous mountains and the wilderness close to Longhu Mountain.

Many Taoist priests were busy among the blast furnaces. The blast furnaces were burning with raging flames inside, and many reinforcement talismans were laid out outside.

Tianshi taught the young Tianshi Zhang Shao to walk on the road. He walked through a stone forest, and the sound of iron thunder came from the front. In front of him, a man wearing a cloth clothes and straw sandals picked up an iron tool and looked at it over and over again.

Angela Chang walked to him and said, "Mr. Feng, how about it?"

This man is Feng Yi, the Mohist master of the New Mohist family.

At that time, Feng Yi was hunted by the killers hired by the Zoroastrians in the south for the mysterious "egg". Fortunately, Chun Jianli and Xiao Meng arrived in time. Later, Ningjiang contacted Xinmomen through this line and invited several Momen, including Feng Yi, to come to Longhu Mountain to help design the blast furnace.

Under the inquiry of the young master Zhang Shao, Feng Yi said: "The new blast furnace iron smelting method designed by the leader of Ning not only greatly accelerated the speed of iron smelting in the past, but also made fine iron quality is much better than ordinary iron blocks. The resources such as coke and charcoal are consumed are much less. The leader of Ning is indeed one of the few geniuses in the world. His design philosophy is that even those of us who are good at the art of wood armor have never heard of it before and have never seen it."

On the other hand, Wu Yunmei from Wu Liuxian Sect and Feng Chengzhu, the daughter of Feng Yi, came together. One of them came from the Taoist sect and the other from the Mo family. They had completely different ideas, but they were of the same age after all. Moreover, in history, Taoism and Mo family did not have much conflict. Unlike the Confucian and Mo families, they were almost incompatible.

Wu Yunmei has been studying the "chemistry" mentioned in the Nine Yin True Sutra these days, and further explored through the "chemistry" of the Nine Yin True Resolve by the leader of the Southeast Wulin Alliance, Ning Jiang, and the combination of "chemistry" with the talisman and the wooden armor technique is also the key point that the leader of Ning has clearly pointed out. Under the arrangement of the leader of Ning, the Taoist sect and the Momen are conducting a cooperation between these wild mountains and rivers, although the scale is limited, it is considered an unprecedented cooperation.

Seeing Zhang Shao and Feng Yi talking here, Wu Yunmei and Feng Chengzhu also came over and discussed with them the method of blast furnace ironmaking designed by the leader of Ning, and the large amount of refined iron made.

Of course, what we do here cannot make the government discover that practicing iron in large quantities is a violation of the law in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Although it is normal for a hero to violate the law of the king as a man in the martial arts world, it is like hiding a large number of bows and arrows in the town, this kind of thing is equivalent to rebellion, and even a man in the martial arts world will not dare to violate it casually.

Of course, the Great Zhou Dynasty today is too busy to take care of itself and cannot care about the crossing of the ridge.

While speaking, Wu Yunmei spread out a piece of paper: "This is after refining the refined iron. Alliance Leader Ning wants us to cast the weapons combined with gunpowder. Please take a look first."

Feng Yi looked at the design drawing: "This is..."

The weather in the south is hotter than in the north, and the heat of the blast furnace in the mountains is dispersed, so even the mountain wind cannot blow away the steamer-like feeling.

Even so, everyone's enthusiasm is rising like a flame here, just because some new things they have never seen before are coming out bit by bit.

And they know better than anyone outside that these new things will be an epoch-making pioneer...

***

The weather in the south was as hot as a stove, but it started raining heavily that night in the capital.

That night, Xiao Meng was in the attic where she lived, cultivating souls and refining souls. She sat on the couch for a long time. She opened her eyes and glanced at the little knife that was also cultivating souls next to her.

Like her, Xiaodao had already cultivated the golden soul, but it would obviously take some time to cultivate the next fire soul.

She did not disturb the knife, and stepped on the floor barefoot and floated to the window lightly. She pushed the window open and looked out. There was lightning and thunder in the distance, and the heavy rain was like a river of heaven, pouring down like money.

It was dark at this time, and the sound of a carriage driving in the courtyard on the other side was like a carriage. She thought to herself, is my brother finally back?

These days, my brother has to go to court every day, go out early and come back late, and disappear before dawn every day. He always has to go to this time, or even later, to come back.

She actually prefers the days when she was in Gaosuo County before, where she and her brother were the only ones. It was simple, but warm, and she was leisurely all day long and there was no need to do much. Her brother was reading and chanting with her, and she was playing and practicing swords by her side.

The wet water vapor invaded from outside. She held her hands and raised her beautiful breasts slightly, taking a deep breath... My brother is someone who wants to do big things, so he can no longer let his brother worry about him.

At this moment, her eyes subconsciously glanced at the other side. On the other side, a red round shadow was floating towards her. There was no doubt that it was a red umbrella spread in the rain.

Perhaps hearing the movement in the yard in the distance, the person under the umbrella paused, then turned the direction and moved to the yard there.

The girl by the window tilted her head slightly.

The carriage drove into the courtyard, Ning Jiang got off the carriage, and, greeted by the maid who was holding open oil umbrellas, got off the carriage and entered the courtyard.

"Master, did you use supper?" Qin Wuyan put away the oil umbrella, put it aside, and untied his cloak.

"I've used it in the palace." Ning Jiang said, "Prepare the algae buckets for me, I'll wash them first."

Qin Wuyan smiled and said, "It's ready."

Ning Jiang nodded. Having this understanding maid by his side did indeed reduce a lot of trouble in life.

Entering the room, under the service of the maid from the room, untied her clothes, stepped into the bathtub, sat in the bucket, and was soothing and stretching... Today's court discussion was really like gunpowder exploded.

Although the reforms a few days ago have been successfully implemented, after all, those changes have not hurt the interests of these ministers in the court. Once they touched their own interests, they all jumped out like offended tigers. However, although Emperor Song Shao was indecisive on weekdays and once he made up his mind, he was unexpectedly fortunate and stood firmly behind him. If it weren't for this, as the "culprit", he would have been driven out of the court long ago.

The struggle in the court was indeed extremely tiring. He sighed helplessly... so that he didn't even have time to spend with his sister.

The maid from the room went outside and helped him prepare his new clothes. He washed himself in the bucket for a while. After a while, a pair of tender gums stretched out behind him and gently rubbed his back.

He enjoyed the kneading of a little awkward, but affectionately, and smiled and said, "Why are you?"

Behind him was Chun Jianli who had entered his room at some point.

Chun Jianli's face was red, but she shook her hair very arrogantly, and hummed, "Isn't it possible?"

Ning Jiang smiled and said, "Yes, yes!" You ran in and massaged the back of a man who was bathing naked, and asked if this man could do it?

Chun Jianli snorted again, behind him, looked at his back, grabbed the towel hanging from the bucket, and rubbed it hard a few times in protest. Ning Jiang said: "Are you rubbing my back for me, or are you abused?"
