Chapter 229 Some joys and some worries (Part 2)

"Zi'an, you're hurting him." Yao Yi said.

"General Yao, I don't care about your father-son relationship. What I think is the talents of the Song Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty lacks the most military generals. What I teach is not your son, but a brave general in the future of the Song Dynasty." Wang Ju said.

Yao Xiong grinned and laughed secretly on the side.

Yao Sit is gone. Even now, let alone Yao Xiong, Yao Sit himself has not become famous. He himself dares to be a brave general. He can only say that he can defeat the general. So he thought Wang Ju was kind-hearted.

But Wang Ju also admired him. Later, he read history books and saw that Yue Fei did not report his son Yue Yun's contributions, it was a bit incredible. It turned out that Yao Yi had set a precedent. This is a true example of being strict with oneself.

Good luck, good luck.

If it weren't for Yao Shi and Li Sangou, I would have come to Huachi County this time, but at most I could do it. It was with these brave generals that I could make a difference.

"This is an instructor. When Xu comes back, Yao Xiong will still have to hand over the position of instructor. Whether he can serve as an instructor in the future depends on his future contributions. Let's talk about the serious business, the third camp of Cai Gong..."

"Okay." Yao Yi said.

Huachi County has a lot less troops? It really has a lot of troops. Now it has become an army of more than 4,000 people, and there are nearly 1,900 cavalrymen. They are all equipped with war horses and a small number of full cavalrymen. Not to mention anything else, just talk about this horse, I am afraid that the ten battalions of cavalry can have two thousand horses in the rear.

But we can't say too much. Once the Xixia really invades, if these thousands of soldiers are not properly dispatched, it may not be enough to get people's teeth.

The officers and soldiers of the third battalion arrived at the right time.

"Maybe OK, Mr. Cai talked with me in detail. Because I was full of hatred in advance..."

Yao Yi laughed. If he was from Xixia, he would hate Wang Ju so much.

"King Cai thought that once the Xixia army invaded, they would have more troops, and they would definitely send heavy troops to tilt towards Huachi County. The battle in Huachi County became a turning point in the battle, so this arrangement was made, saying that the officials of the Sixth Battalion were transferred from the rear to the front line. In fact, the other three battalions didn't matter, the main one was these three battalions."

"Will there be Guangrui Camp?"

"Mr. Cai didn't say it. But I think the organization of the third battalion will not be too bad."

Eating empty salary is always a headache topic, but some battalions have fewer people, while others have more people. Wang Ju said that the third battalion transferred may have fewer people, so the first battalion of the infantry battalion will be close to five hundred people, and the cavalry battalion will be close to four hundred people.

"Isn't this better?...Isn't it right? Where is the money?"

"It's this money."

"How did that soju solve it?"

"Do you know too?" Wang Ju was stunned. It turned out that this incident had a great impact.

"I got it, it's a bit difficult."

"General Yao, it's not difficult to deal with, and he doesn't get involved in military affairs. He just fights with economics, and I can deal with them with my eyes closed. But how much money can I make even the soju?"

Wang Ju said something wrong. That is not to make a few money, but you can make tens of thousands of yuan a year. It is also an amazing income in the hands of that merchant. But if it is poured into Huachi County and on thousands of officers and soldiers, is this money still called money?

Not bad, the horses are basically ready.

But next there is food and training rewards.

Without these rewards, will the soldiers be willing to receive such high-intensity training at the moment?

These problems are not big. There is mainly a big head coming, so it is best to change armor and weapons. It is best to change all armor and weapons. It is impossible. But according to the standards of Wang Ju and Yao Yi, half of the armor and weapons in the hands of officers and soldiers must be replaced, not to mention the bitter foreign cavalry, there is almost nothing. Also, Wang Ju general compiled a brief compilation of strong men and strong horses. After training for a while, when the war comes, he also intends to use some strong men and strong horses to use, but they cannot be allowed to fight with the weapons in their village. Standard weapons will definitely be temporarily issued at that time. However, Han Qi made it very clear, and Cai Ting also made it clear to Wang Ju that the country is in financial difficulties and limited support.

So Cai Ting told Wang Ju that as long as you don’t do too much, I support you.

Any private business and private wine, even if you keep it private, I will keep you as long as you keep it confidential. But you have to train the thousands of officers and soldiers of Huachi County into a truly strong army.

This is a lot of pressure, and the officers and soldiers of the Third Battalion were added.

"The more than a thousand prisoners of war were released improperly," Yao Yi said in frustration.

I thought it was a joke, but now Yao Yi thinks it makes sense. At least one Ding Zhuang is more valuable than a female guru. He plans to have a mine slave twenty stakes, and more than one thousand mine slaves have more than 30,000 stakes.

How much practical things do you have to do with this more than 30,000 stale money?

"That's not a joke. I really plan to do that. In the battle after the autumn, the sacrifice will be heavy. These soldiers are all laborers at home. One of them falls and the whole family will be separated."

Yao Yi clenched his fists. When his father died in battle, his family was also miserable. However, Yao Bao was a senior general of the court, so the court gave generous benefits. But what about those ordinary soldiers?

"So I have to find a way to make some money for pensions."

"Zi'an, I support you."

"You must need your support, otherwise how many prisoners of war took action at that time? But that's still early. Let's not talk about it for now. You plan to train the recruits of the Third Battalion first," Wang Ju thought about it and said. How to lead troops to fight, Yao Yi acted, Yao Yi's method of making money is not good.

However, Yao Yi suddenly asked: "Why did the Tang Dynasty win every battle with soldiers?"

He had been holding this idea for a long time.

Yes, the officers and soldiers of Huachi Battalions have a new look, but how much money has been spent behind this? The Zhu family, the Li family, and the wealthy families in Yanzhou who are optimistic about Wang Ju, as well as Wang Ju himself, have spent more than 30,000 yuan.

Of course, some have done capital operation.

However, the income from private businesses and wine is also amazing.

There are also many gains from those three battles. Although most of the gains were handed over to the hands of each retired soldiers who were killed or seriously injured in the name of donations from comrades, this is also an incentive. If I fight me well, I will not only have the court's pension, but also more disguised pensions, so that your family will have no worries.

The amount of money was so huge that Yao Yi couldn't even imagine it.

But it is not all. The court is also spending money, just raising thousands of officials, plus other waste. Just a few battalions of troops stationed in Huachi County may have to spend 100,000 chunks a year!

If it is enlarged to the entire northwest, how much does it cost a year?

"I participated in the imperial examination last year and was accidentally involved in the controversy between San Ding Shuyi. I also heard some news at that time. including Han Gong, they all wanted to implement the ancient methods of using troops and restore the military service system. This recruitment system made the country suffer. I have not made any comments on this, but it is unrealistic. I will talk about the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty."

"Zi'an, please say," Yao Yi said.

Don’t think he is a warrior. He also reads, including the history books of the Tang Dynasty, otherwise he would not respect Yan Zhenqing.

Therefore, I was very interested in the Tang Dynasty's military soldiers. That country was the country. They all fought to the west of the Pamir Mountains, to the north to Xiaohai, to the east to Goryeo, and to Jiaozhi in the south. It was like the Song Dynasty, and it was a waste of money!

"The Tang Dynasty's government soldiers system was implemented because the Tang Dynasty was sparsely populated. Anyone who entered the government soldiers could get a large amount of farmland and worry-free. In the early Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty won every battle. Although nomadic people were poor, as long as they won, there would be many spoils. Not to mention the Western Regions, the water and soil of the Western Regions were better than the present, with many oasis, and business roads, so many small countries in the Western Regions were very rich and the spoils were richer. In the early Tang Dynasty, there were many famous generals, so they could win a great victory as long as they were with a small number of troops, and the country was under little pressure. Most of the Tang Dynasty's government soldiers were from peasants, and they could farm farms where they occupied. Moreover, they were famous and the Hu people dared not invade the fields. The combat period was short, and the government soldiers sent out their troops and returned after the victory. Only a small number of soldiers needed to be garrisoned outside, and the rest could be reunited with their families."

"It seems to make sense." Yao Yi pondered. This was the first time he heard this statement. He did not talk about tactical terms, but talked about people's livelihood and benefits.

"Later, the Tang Dynasty had a larger population and a tight land, and it began to fail repeatedly. Especially in the Tubo Dynasty's Qinling, it was only broken by him, and there were 400,000 Tang troops, and there were also Khitan Turks. If they were defeated, they would die. If they did not have an absolute advantage, they would have to send a large number of troops to guard the garrison, let alone spoils. Therefore, the system of the palace troops was gradually destroyed, which gave rise to the soil of the vassal states. This is a good reference."

"Will my court be even worse?"

"That's right, our dynasty's overall policy is to reduce the external and strengthen the internal, and to eliminate the accumulation of defense. If a round of garrison is not allowed to serve soldiers. Even if all the soldiers are farmers, they can still farm, but what should their family do?"

This is the real reality. Why is Wang Ju's training reward not distributed to soldiers, but to their families, which makes them feel at ease. How many people can truly ignore their wives, children, and young people in the family?

But at this point, Wang Ju had a sudden inspiration.

It's still OK. Of course, it's impossible to use all the soldiers, but I believe there will be some solutions to use some services.

I don’t know that even in China later, would the conscript system be the same as the military service system? Of course, it would be very troublesome to implement it in the Song Dynasty. First of all, those people should enter the conscript system? Secondly, how to take the initiative to let everyone participate in the conscript? Later, I dare to yell out who is the cutest person, and soldiers are the cutest person. Can it be done in the Song Dynasty? A good iron does not make nails, and a hero does not join the army! Or Wang Ju shouts out who is the cutest person, Di Qing, Ren Fu... and then wait for the big hat to be pulled out to parade by the literati.

If the people do not take the initiative to join the conscript, that is a harm to the people!

But doing well will play a lot of roles, such as reducing the country's financial burden. What is important is Hedong and Hebei. Why did the Jin people successfully move south? These two places have been peaceful for a long time and no longer experienced fighting. The nature is the same as the Anshi Rebellion.

"Let's talk about it later," Wang Ju thought to himself.

After talking for a while, Wang Ju returned to Huachi Town. Cai Ting was preparing to add three camps to Huachi County, which made Wang Ju both happy and worried, and what was worried was money.

I have to find a way to solve the money problem. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
