"Do you want me to give you a detailed investigation report? Guessing based on intuition has no meaning in this situation. Either you come up with evidence that can really convince me, or just listen to me and debate this kind of thing."
You can't convince anyone during a debate!" Li You glanced at Yu Fan coldly, "In the past, I would never have explained so much!"
"How dare you say that you have no selfish motives in this regard!" Yu Fan was so angry at Li You's look that he looked retarded that he stood up and asked.
"Zhongxiang, calm down." Zhang Hong suddenly said, there were some things he couldn't say.
"At least my selfishness is much lighter than yours." Li You said coldly, his eyes no longer hiding the biting murderous intent. Li You was really angry this time.
"Yu Zheng, sit down!" Chen Xi knocked on the table and glanced at Yu Fan. Yu Fan snorted and sat down directly. Then Chen Xi turned to Li You and persuaded, "Wen Ru, I have something to say, the problem of the southern infantry.
You can put it aside for now, you must have your reasons for suggesting this, let’s talk about it.”
Chen Xi supports Li You in this matter, because he knows better. There is nothing to say about the development of the south, but the disarmament of the south is a bit too much. Chen Xi guesses that Li You
There should be some other ideas as well.
After all, fighting with others directly in the Political Yuan is not like Li You's style of dealing with things. This guy usually beats the other person to death at once. Such things are very rare.
"Let's talk about the place in Liangzhou first. It takes two hundred days to cultivate a field, and the output is very low. It might as well be used as a military camp. The current situation is really not that different. Children living in that kind of environment will not grow up.
It's much more reliable than recruiting." Li You's expression returned to normal again, as if the previous incident had not happened.
"Well, there is no problem with this." Chen Xi nodded. Liangzhou is actually not suitable for farming. Up to now, the Han Dynasty basically relies on the Han Dynasty to allocate grain from other places every year. This is why it has always been easy to recruit troops from Liangzhou.
reasons.
"After the development of Jingyang, according to the report, it should be two crops a year." Li You said with a little silence. In the past, he really thought that there was no such place in the Han Dynasty as two crops a year without rotation, but this time it was definitely there.
, it was just abandoned by them because of the difficulty of cultivating it.
Zhuge Jin and others were not moved by this. Yuzhang and other places had two crops a year, so they didn't have any special feelings. On the contrary, the civil servants in the north were all shocked. In this era, the gap caused by geographical differences between the north and the south was real.
It is so big that northerners have little impression of many things that southerners take for granted.
Even after Li You arrived in the south, he realized that he had never seen wealthy people in the north. This kind of thing that was impossible to happen in the north was happening openly in the south.
"So I was thinking, how about forgetting it this way? I think many people in the South don't actually like to be soldiers, so just pay to be exempted from military service. I feel that the current military service is not very suitable for the social environment. Those who don't want to be soldiers have to pay
It's okay to give a sum of money to the country, and the country can use the money to recruit suitable young men to serve as soldiers." Li You did not hide his malice this time.
Different from the north, due to the military merit system in this era, northerners actually like to be soldiers. Although the dangers of being a soldier are not low, there is no problem in being a soldier in this era to earn a living, even back then.
During the reign of Emperor Ling, soldiers could always have enough to eat.
Although they were disbanded after the battle, they could still eat well while serving as soldiers.
Especially in the land of Western Qin, for hundreds of years, the people have not had any resistance to being soldiers, and many people are even more willing to serve as soldiers, because a big reason for this is that the food in this place is actually
Not enough.
Being a soldier can not only solve your own problems, but also solve your own problems. If you are lucky, you can get promoted and make a fortune. Therefore, the people in this area actually prefer to be soldiers. After all, it is a bit helpless to stay at home with no food to eat.
It means, but I have become accustomed to it after hundreds of years.
In addition, the soldiers from this area have always been very good at fighting in the cold weapon era, and they have no disadvantages, so being a soldier is actually a good choice for the people in this area.
However, the further south you go, the lower your willingness to serve as a soldier. The reason is actually not clear. Moreover, as you go south, the average combat effectiveness also declines, although it is undeniable that there are some situations that go against this overall trend.
, but this is basically the situation.
Li You's current meaning is very clear. Since the south does not like to serve as soldiers, then give the southerners a chance to pay more money and food to exempt them from military service. Then the country will use the money and food to go to the north to recruit suitable young men.
What do you think of this idea? It’s basically a drastic change. Some policies appear to apply to the entire map. In fact, due to regional factors, the impact on each place is completely different, so that it may be said to be fair, but in fact it is very unfair.
Condition.
Now Li You's idea is just like this, full of malicious suggestions, but if it is announced, there will definitely be a lot of people in the south who are willing to give money, food and exemption from military service. As for the impact on the north after passing it, there is basically no impact on the overall situation.
Those in the north who should be soldiers should do so. Since there is not enough food anyway, soldiers are responsible for the food. But in the south, I am afraid that many soldiers will be thinking about lifting their military service.
"Wen Ru, please tell me, the reform of the military system is not just a few words. There is no need to intimidate our own people," Chen Xi held his forehead and said helplessly, "You are completely changing the conscription system into a recruitment system. The latter
Although there is Wu Qi Zhuyu in front, isn’t there also the previous conflict?”
The conscription system was a standard system prevailing in the Qin and Han Dynasties. There was nothing to say, it was simple and crude. As long as they were adult men, no matter how high or low they were, they were all required to perform military service for two years.
The only difference between Qin and Han in this aspect is age and reporting methods. The other differences are not big. Of course, the Han here refers to the Western Han Dynasty.
Both are one-size-fits-all methods. When I reach the age, I will be given two years of training in the military camp. Two years is enough time for any adult man to learn all the things he needs to learn. When the war starts, he can be on the spot with a single order.
The conscription was dispatched directly.
This is also a very scary place in classical warfare - all the people are soldiers!
This is also an important reason why the Western Han Dynasty was able to press the Huns into the soil and rub them.
The next thing I want to talk about is the recruitment system. In fact, this thing existed in the Western Han Dynasty, but the Western Han Dynasty used it as a supplement to conscription, mainly to recruit some very brave elite warriors.
By the time of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the conscription system required state execution, ahem, just go to sleep. After the addition of powerful families, there was no need to mention the central government's dominance over local areas. It was all about the powerful families to stabilize various places.
So the military system completely changed to a recruitment system. People were recruited with money, and no longer selected like in the Western Han Dynasty. It was also from this time that military discipline began to deteriorate, and robberies began to occur from time to time. Moreover, military service began to be chaotic, and many recruits
None of the soldiers have received military training.
It is completely different from the situation in the pre-Qin and early Han dynasties where an adult man had been trained for at least two years and knew what he was doing on the battlefield. This also caused the combat effectiveness of the soldiers in the late Eastern Han Dynasty to begin to plummet. The reason was simple: they ran out of money.
Recruiting soldiers. If you don't have money, you won't be able to recruit good soldiers. As for why the Han Dynasty's combat effectiveness increased again during the Huanling period, in fact, the military system at this time was said to be recruiting soldiers, but it was a little different, because at this time, private soldiers were gradually relaxed.
…
Local governments began to recruit their own young men and conduct military training, especially in border counties. They directly recruited people to fight against various opponents that they were unhappy with. After all, it was much more effective than the national military training of Qin and Han Dynasties. After all, this was done
Everyone is bleeding.
After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, when Liu Bei took over Mount Tai, Chen Xi couldn't stand this mentally retarded approach anymore, so he directly switched back to conscription. Anyway, he was very poor at that time, and if you didn't listen to my command, you would eat dirt, so it was all smooth sailing.
Later, when the territory became larger, Chen Xi changed the military service to a combination of conscription and recruitment. Soldiers were recruited first and then trained. Military villages, civilian villages, training camps, militia and so on were all examples of the conscription system.
Anyway, as long as you are an adult, during your free time you can either join the construction corps to carry out infrastructure construction, or choose a training camp, escape, etc. It is impossible, it is all semi-military management.
This happens every year, and when it is time to recruit new soldiers, they will be recruited from these places, and the soldiers recruited will basically be guaranteed to have some militarized foundation.
Although the overall system is a bit chaotic, it can be considered as taking into account the combat effectiveness of the conscription system and the flexibility of the recruitment system. Of course, Chen Xi admitted that he was able to do this mainly because his treasury was full. If it were someone else who did this, he might not be able to sustain it.
But even so, Chen Xi has no intention of changing the military system. At least this system truly takes into account the advantages of both. The Han Empire's combat effectiveness can soar so fast, in large part because of this military system.
This same military system is also the necessary guarantee for the Han Empire to recruit the remaining half of the Qi Refining Chenggang into the army when necessary, and Li You now seems to want to modify the military system.
"I have no intention of reforming the military system. It is just a trend to supplement the proposals for adjusting the situation between the north and the south. You can ignore it." Li You said as if you just thought I was telling a joke, but this kind of
At that time, whoever believed it was mentally retarded!
"My previous proposal was to abolish the unsuitable fields in Liangzhou. It is still the same. How about closely integrating the north and the south to allow some who do not want to go to the battlefield to support the families of the soldiers who go to the battlefield." Li You said in a different way.
