Fu Bi was a bit exaggerated. Even in his memorial to Chui Gong Hall, he passed it selectively.
Some memorials about the transfer of civilians were uploaded at a certain time, which gave the officials and His Royal Highness the feeling that the army of the country was really starting to grow.
In fact, it is far from the level mentioned in the memorial.
How can I put it this way? How can a general be willing to change his position if he only relies on his free quota to eat and drink?
As for the soldiers, not to mention the civil servants, even to their superiors, they are all as well-behaved as slaves.
The reason why there is such a memorial is just a disguised attempt to ask for treatment from the imperial court, which is what His Highness the Prince said, to improve the treatment of serving soldiers.
After all, it is a fact that the living standards of those soldiers have improved after they were converted to civilians, which gives those military leaders an excuse...
The officials and the Crown Prince may not understand it, but how could Fu Bi not understand it?
He just wanted to test His Highness the Crown Prince to see if he had any plans or back-up plans.
This~...Although it is a temporary approach, His Royal Highness has a very tricky angle in solving the problem.
If it were in the past, the imperial court would simply respond to such a request... kill a few of them!
And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...
Okay, don’t you just want to improve your salary? Don’t you just want to improve your living standard? Yes, but there are conditions.
In this way, there is competition directly within the soldiers.
The most important thing is that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince directly suggested improving the treatment of the new army!
Although the guard battalion does not participate in specific military matters, the soldiers who have been trained are also arrogant towards their original superiors, not to mention the civil servants.
Because all the soldiers who were trained were recorded in the guard camp, as if they were already members of the guard camp and the East Palace.
This will only improve the salary of the new troops, and there will be rotation training of the guard battalions. There is no possibility of taking advantage of this group of people.
At the same time, His Royal Highness the Prince gave all the soldiers hope... to become a new army, or to make a living as a family member, both are desirable...
Fortresses were breached from the inside.
With such a complicated and complicated army, how can we talk about imitating the Xinyang Army? Not to mention that there are new troops in every Forbidden Army.
Therefore, the imperial edict was issued, along with His Highness the Crown Prince's scoring rules for the promotion of soldiers.
The most important point is that the edict must be read out by the civil servants, the Imperial City Secretary, and the escort battalion. It must be read out in front of all the soldiers, and every soldier must sign a sign after understanding it!
They were dumbfounded. All the military leaders who clamored to make demands to the court were dumbfounded.
Follow the example of the Xinyang Army and rebel? Rebellious! Just look at each soldier as if he had been beaten to death...
Zhao Xi formulated the detailed rules in vernacular, not only for the uneducated soldiers to understand, but also for him to get used to it.
Various aspects including daily drills, physical fitness standards, military literacy, duty ethics, etc. are explained in detail.
The right to judge is shared by the instructors of the guard camp, the civil servants in charge of military affairs, the Imperial City Detectives who are lurking in the army, the internal servants who are superficially responsible, and the military leaders with management authority.
It completely avoids the possibility of secret operations, which is why the soldiers feel like they have been given a shot of blood... and they have a head start.
That's it, let's not talk about it for now. Let's talk about those courtiers who ignored Zhao Xi to lay the track.
It seems very urgent, as if there is no next year.
No, it's not freezing yet. Before winter comes, there are already many tracks for people to pass.
"It's better not to put the plan on track for the time being. It will be put into trial operation for a period of time, or after this winter."
The purpose of petitioning the court is simply to earn money for the court's transportation. At the same time, I also want the court to run the transportation to attract the choice of private freight.
"Your Highness, the rail transport capacity has been proven. Nowadays, part of the southern railway transportation is carried by the Xiangzhou-Bianliang Line, and other rails should also be capable of carrying the railway transport."
All I have to say is: Why does your track work, but other people’s tracks don’t?
This is a meeting, and it is not mainly about the track's responsibility for the destiny. It is just a side talk.
In recent years, Zhao Xi has spoken out more and more, and he has the most say in the track.
As a result, as soon as I finished speaking, I was yelled back at.
"On the Xiangzhou to Bianliang line, all goods transported have signed a compensation agreement, which means that lost or damaged goods will be fully compensated by the railway company."
"This includes compensation for missed schedules, as well as compensation for consequences caused by missed schedules. If all the tracks can do this, it doesn't matter, they can transport the ship."
He has complete and strict regulations, but still plays with his own goods first. After constantly improving the entire process, Zhao Xi did not dare to allow the track to be transported at full load.
Zhao Xi really couldn't imagine what kind of chaos this group of people would have when faced with interests.
Zhao Xi knew about the laying of these tracks. Even if he didn't pay attention, Chen Lin would tell him everything the Imperial City Division discovered in detail.
The line selection is random, the sleeper specifications are confusing, the spacing is not constant, the leveling and straightness cannot be achieved, the foundation is not compacted, the pressure-bearing and buffering gravel specifications are confusing, etc., not to mention the considerations of thermal expansion and contraction, the track is covered with iron sheet
It's of poor quality. If we don't talk about management, just talk about the foundation, it's doomed to chaos.
Zhao Xi's suggestion not to go to Gangyun was really out of good intentions and wanted them to lose less money.
In this era, the respect for contracts and the ethics of fulfilling contracts are quite good.
If it is private goods, the transportation volume will definitely not be large. If you transport small quantities and multiple times, even if you pay compensation, it will not hurt your muscles and bones.
By the way, I have just escaped from the food shortage, so don't bother with it anymore, I don't have much money.
But people don’t recognize good intentions!
"I sincerely request the imperial court to issue an edict that all rail transportation should be based on the compensation contract for the Xiangzhou to Bianliang line!"
Don't argue with the prince, just talk about the compensation contract. If His Highness the prince can do it, so can we.
The so-called requesting the imperial court to issue an edict means asking the imperial court to allow all parties to move forward on their own track.
Zhao Xi was really speechless for this kind of person who wanted to pay for nothing.
………
"Your Highness, is the track unusable?"
After the meeting was over, the prime ministers left behind their usual customs, including Zhizhigao. This was a routine, and the matters discussed during the meeting were issued in the form of imperial edicts.
Fu Bi asked as if making small talk.
"Fu Xiang, it's not that the track is unusable, it's that their track is unusable. It is recommended that when sending Chaogang goods, try to make emergencies and backups. Take precautions against delays and losses."
Most of the so-called gang transportation is sent from local places to Bianliang, or from Bianliang to prefectures and counties.
There are taxes from the court, salaries from officials...this is the business after minting new coins. There are even cloths and newly produced woolen clothing.
Not to mention lost, just out of date, which is a big deal for the court or the place.
Oh, what a trouble!
There is nothing Fu Bi can do about this court now.
The emperor, the governor, and his ministers check and balance each other. Taizu has established such a system since the beginning of the dynasty. No party can act arbitrarily.
Because of the food shortage, although His Royal Highness has already made some investments and profits, the disputes over fields and food have really shaken things up...
