Chapter 167 The anxious Lao Zhu! Separate civil and military rule!(1/2)
Longqing Zhu Zaijing’s words have just finished speaking.
All the emperors and princes frowned.
In fact, what Zhu Zaijing said makes sense to a certain extent, especially during the periods when the Japanese country was in war, such as the Warring States Period on the Japanese island.
Since the people who have been fighting on the island for a long time are men, although most of the wars break out at the village level, the gangs of Japanese slaves still fight fiercely. Sometimes they are so fierce that half of the village will be killed at one time.
They are all widowed.
Over time, the ratio of men to women on Japanese islands naturally became unbalanced, and there must be more Japanese women than Japanese men.
"That's what I thought."
"Select the most beautiful among the Japanese women and fill them into the Jiaofang Division."
"The remaining ones can follow the example of the Grand Ancestor in the past when he set up the Qinhuai Sixteenth Floor and open restaurants in thirteen provinces across the country in the name of the imperial court. This will definitely bring a very generous income to the imperial court."
Paying money to farm has always been a hugely profitable business without any capital.
After finishing speaking, Zhu Zaijing held his breath and waited slightly uneasily for the scrutiny from his ancestors.
"Well, this method is not impossible."
Lao Zhu was silent for a moment and nodded slightly.
The reason why he established the Qinhuai Sixteenth Floor in the first place was essentially to increase the court's income.
And the 16th floor of Qinhuai is, to put it bluntly, the official hook.
Old Zhu Di and other emperors all frowned slightly, but they did not express any different opinions.
After all, in this era, women are actually equivalent to goods to a certain extent and can be clearly marked with prices, not to mention foreign women such as Japanese women. These Japanese women are trophies in terms of equivalents.
Every time the Ming Dynasty sent troops to conquer or counter-rebellion, there was an unwritten practice. When the commander-in-chief of the counter-rebellion returned to the court, he would take away some local specialties, some of which were presented to the court, and some of which were kept for him to give as gifts to build relationships.
This local specialty includes some boys and girls who were suppressed in the rebellion.
Needless to say, young men are all cut off with one knife, such as the Three Treasures Eunuch.
As for girls, those with outstanding looks will be presented to the palace.
Even this practice changed the historical trend of the Ming Dynasty.
For example, the Ji family, the biological mother of Emperor Hongzhi Zhu Youtang.
In the early years of Chenghua, the chieftains in Dateng Gorge rebelled. Chenghua Emperor Zhu Jianshen sent Han Yong as commander and sent troops to Guangxi to quell the rebellion.
After Han Yong successfully quelled the rebellion, before returning to the army, he selected some local specialties and sent them to the capital as usual. Among these local specialties was the Ji family, the birth mother of Emperor Hongzhi.
So, if you look at the problem from this perspective.
In fact, Zhu Zaijing's proposal to eliminate all Japanese women as prostitutes and use them to generate revenue for the Ming Dynasty's finances is not unusual, and may even be beneficial to the country.
Ji Boying glanced at Zhu Zaijing and didn't say anything more on this matter. He just gave him a look that looked like he was sitting down.
If we look at this matter from the perspective of future generations, this will definitely not work.
After all, this farming transaction is illegal, and Marx fundamentally did not allow this thing to exist.
But this is the Ming Dynasty, and now is the era of autocratic monarchy, so the situation is completely different.
And in fact, in the Japanese country at this time, there were not many high-quality women who could be selected. Generally speaking, buck teeth and bow legs should be the mainstream appearance.
"As for the Japanese women on the Japanese island, you should make arrangements based on your own circumstances."
"One thing to remind you here is that the future development of the handicraft industry in the Ming Dynasty will also require a large part of the labor force. In the process of semi-industrialization, women can take over any insufficient production capacity."
After Ji Boying said this, he ended the topic.
Then he thought of something again and glanced at the group of emperors and princes present.
"Which of you still has questions? Ask them all at once."
Although students are allowed to ask questions in class, they cannot be interrupted so frequently. Frequent interruptions by one by one and one by one by one really affect the rhythm of the class.
Everyone here shook their heads slightly after hearing this.
"Yeah."
"Next, this lesson will continue to return to the topic we just talked about."
"How to fundamentally improve the status of generals"
"I'll give you a cup of tea to discuss the summary."
"After a cup of tea, each group will send a representative to come out and talk about the measures you have taken in your respective time and space, and how to improve the status of soldiers and generals."
Say it.
Ji Boying sat back on the grand master's chair in the center of the podium, leaned back on the chair, and closed his eyes slightly to rest.
I had insomnia last night and was really tired.
After the theoretical class is over, he will take Lao Zhu to take a look at the later generations of Hongwu during the break.
Then, he will take these princes and princes to the Spanish Empire in many eras, and analyze the gains and losses from different dimensions from the perspective of the rise and decline of the first generation.
Then, we have to go to Xuande Time and Space to fill cups and solve the problem of the Xuande Dynasty's lack of implementation of the New Deal. Finally, we have to take Wanli Zhu Changluo to win over Li Dan, the shipping king of Wanli Time and Space, to open up the official maritime trade market of Wanli Time and Space.
After all this is over, we need to move the timeline of Wanli time and space and prepare for "The Heroes Airborne to Saarhu".
Ji Boying couldn't help but feel his head hurt when he thought of the series of busy things that followed.
Sleeping too little is really a kind of torture, which makes people feel irritable.
As the Immortal Master spoke out, each group in each court began to discuss in low voices.
In such a noisy environment, Ji Boying suddenly discovered that he could fall asleep, or in other words, enter a short and deep sleep.
Even a brief three-minute deep sleep is a salvation for an insomniac.
After a cup of tea.
Under the active discipline of Zhu Jianshen, the leader of the first class, and Zhu Jianshen, the leader of the second class, the main hall gradually became quiet.
And Ji Boying also opened his eyes at this moment.
The whole person's energy and energy obviously look much better.
Look at Lao Zhu first.
"Hongwu."
Two words exit.
If there is no accident, there must be no accident. A Biao stood up.
"We have strictly followed the reform of the military system that Master Xian previously taught in class, and have made the following points."
"First point, after our government received the first batch of silver from Japan, it immediately abolished the military household system and implemented a recruitment system, and gradually began to improve the treatment of soldiers and enhance their status among the people."
"The second point is to establish five major military regions in the thirteen provinces of the country. Except for the capital and border defense troops, all the military regions will be assigned to the five major military regions. According to the words of the immortal master, the military command power and the promotion recommendation power of the military regions will be separated."
"The third point,..."
Ah Biao talked bit by bit, speaking very logically.
However, Ji Boying frowned slightly after listening to A Biao's words.
He couldn't help but recall the paragraph where he talked about the military system.
Indeed.
From this perspective, Hongwu's restructuring did not do anything wrong. To a certain extent, it greatly improved the status of soldiers.
"Master Immortal, the student has finished speaking."
Abiao saluted respectfully.
"Yeah."
He nodded slightly and motioned for Abiao to sit down.
Then he glanced at the other people, and it was obvious that these people's faces were rather embarrassed. It was most likely that Abiao had told them everything they knew and didn't know.
Nothing more to say.
And from the perspective of the system setting of the military system, the military reform of the Hongwu Dynasty was obviously the most complete.
After all, Hongwu was the beginning of a dynasty. With Lao Zhu, the founding emperor, there was basically no resistance. As long as Lao Zhu issued an order, many systems could be subversively changed from scratch.
Even Jianwen and Yongle in the future, and even Emperor Yongle at the height of his prestige, could not do this.
But judging from Ji Boying's sleepless days and late night analysis of Guo Zuo in various time and space.
The improvement of military status is obviously not enough.
In other words, there are serious drawbacks.
Even in Hongwu time and space, after more than a hundred years have passed, especially after a relatively long period of peace.
As the civil service group grows, the status of military personnel will still be suppressed uncontrollably.
The decline in the status of military personnel means the weakening of national defense strength and the decline in military combat effectiveness.
To be continued...
