As soon as Jia Ke announced this order, the people below were in an uproar. Most of these people lived on free wages. They received several thousand taels of silver every year. Apart from the up and down management, it was just enough to live in their own homes.
It is not that these people want to live on empty wages, but that the salaries given by the court are really not enough to support people. Even these salaries cannot be paid in full. The money from the Ministry of Households will soon be reduced by 20%.
Jia Ke had known this situation for a long time, so he said to them: "From now on, I will make up for the shortfall of the imperial court. As for the problem that you dislike the low salary, I will think of a way for you. I have a servant in the palace.
, there is a lot of gain from engaging in border trade. If you invest your money in his trading company, you will be guaranteed to have an income of several thousand taels a year. Isn’t it better than living on empty wages?"
Jia Ke is giving a sweet date with a stick, not only to make them willingly fill up the number of people, but also to tie them with him forcefully. This is also a means for Jia Ke to win people's hearts.
The people below discussed among themselves among themselves. Some felt that this was an impossible solution. Some people thought that they would do as Jia Ke said when they went back. After all, the arm could not twist the thigh. What would happen if the lecture decided? What if they
Against Jia Ke's wishes, Jia Ke could find any reason to deal with them in the name of deducting military pay.
However, there are still some people who are unconvinced and feel that Jia Ke has deprived them of a way to make money, and they do not take Jia Ke's words to heart. You must know that this trick of free money has been used for thousands of years.
I don't see any general who can control it.
Such things as eating empty pay and drinking soldiers' blood rarely happened in the early stages of the dynasty. Because at that time, there were wars and wars. If any general dared to do this, the soldiers below would have rebelled long ago.
In addition, the generals at the founding of the country led the soldiers to plunder the enemy everywhere, and the property they obtained was piled up like a mountain. How can these small profits be considered.
But in the prosperous age of the dynasty, the world was at peace, the foreigners were in submission, and the civil servants began to take charge of the court. At this time, the generals were suppressed, and there was no way to make money. And they were dazed by the colorful world in the prosperous age, and life
He started to become extravagant. Naturally, he felt that the money was not enough, so he finally had to find a solution by eating empty pay and drinking the blood of soldiers.
And Jia Ke naturally knew what the generals below were thinking. It was just that the law did not punish the generals. There was nothing he could do to deal with these people. He couldn't kill them all for the sake of strict military discipline.
But Jia Ke did not stop them, but looked down with cold eyes, and then said: "Which of you wants to be a chicken and who wants to be a monkey, but you have to think clearly. Don't blame me for not telling you in advance.
"
After hearing these words, the generals below felt chilled in their hearts. Then they remembered that the person sitting above was not a good person. Many of them had witnessed with their own eyes the majesty of the Tatars when they defeated the Tatars outside Xuanfu Town.
I've been here before. I was a little cautious at first, but now I can't help but beat the drum. What if this adult is really as ruthless as he said? What should you do then?
Jia Ke ignored their thoughts and continued to say to them with a cold face: "I am a man of my word. After one month, I will personally check the ministries. If there is a shortage of troops in each ministry, the leading generals will deal with it according to military law and execute them immediately."
When the commanders below saw Jia Ke's decisive words, they knew that there was no room for maneuver. It seemed that they had to replenish their troops this time no matter what, otherwise the newly appointed Jiedushi Commander might really scare the monkeys.
Jia Ke sat on the throne and looked at the generals below, entering the cold cicada one by one. Then he struck while the iron was hot and said: "The number of soldiers in the army has been replenished, but all the soldiers' military pay must be paid in full. Who dares to fight again?"
Bloody things happened. I ransacked his house and gave all his property to his soldiers. As for him, it depends on whether he can survive the hidden arrows of his soldiers."
When the generals below heard this, they gritted their teeth with hatred towards Jia Ke, which blocked all their ways of making money. However, due to Jia Ke's power, these people could only agree to it with humility.
In fact, they still hope that Jia Ke will be the first thing to do as a new official. After a while, Jia Ke will relax and they can return to the original rules.
Jia Ke is determined to rectify Xuanfu Town this time. The main purpose is not to improve the combat effectiveness of the army, but to use this as a name to gather the military power of various departments. In order to expand his prestige among the soldiers, if you divide and disintegrate these people, they will
Soldiers' connections with them.
At the same time, he tests the attitude of each commander toward himself in order to suppress dissidents and win over his confidants to expand his power.
Now Jia Ke has an unusual obsession with power, and begins to unconsciously hope that all his subordinates will be under his absolute control.
In the next few days, various commanders were frantically poaching and recruiting old troops, hoping to replenish the number of their troops before the time came. Moreover, the conditions offered were very good, and all soldiers would be able to receive their military pay.
Distributed.
It is now being spread among the soldiers that this is a tough order from the newly appointed Jiedushi Master Jia, and the generals did this. As a result, Jia Ke's prestige among the soldiers has increased rapidly. These soldiers below are all rough people, and they only know that
They will be loyal to whoever treats them well, regardless of the court's justice. Isn't this how soldiers have been fed since ancient times?
Jia Ke is also satisfied with the attitude of the generals. At least they did not go against the will. At this time, no matter whether they can complete the task in the end, attitude is the most important.
What's more important is that Jia Ke has understood the thoughts of the soldiers at the bottom. This makes Jia Ke think that even if he offends the generals in Quanxuanfu Town, he will gain more than he loses. As long as the soldiers at the bottom support him, these generals will not be able to defeat him.
What a trick.
A month passed quickly. Jia Ke announced that the day for the various departments in the school had arrived. Of course, Jia Ke could not go and count them one by one in person. Jia Ke ordered Liu Yu to assign his own soldiers to each department to train soldiers. By the way,
Count people.
Jia Ke's method of sending his own soldiers down to train the troops every time he arrived at a place so that he could more easily control the military power has become a subconscious action for Jia Ke, but the effect is good. After each completion, he
The control over military power has been deepened.
This training was completed very smoothly. Officers from each department with less than 100 households participated in the training. Jia Ke also took the time to hold a training class in Xuanfu Town, gathering all the 100 households who came for training for training and brainwashing.
.
After this three-month training and schooling, none of the commanders realized that they had lost a large part of their control over the military, especially since the hundreds of households at the grassroots level were almost all descendants of Jia Ke's disciples.
Although these people are still commanders, without Jia Ke's consent, they can no longer mobilize any soldiers except their own soldiers. In the past few months, Jia Ke has used this bottom-up approach to
method, controlling the military power of the entire Xuanfu Town.
At this time, Jia Ke finally settled down. Now Jia Ke has completely controlled Xuanfu Town. He has a total of 80,000 men under his command, 40,000 of whom are Jia Ke's direct followers. Although the other 40,000 are controlled by various commanders,
Most of the hundreds of households have been brainwashed by Jia Ke. As long as there are one or two more wars, these people can be fully integrated into Jia Ke's system.
When Jia Ke completed his control of the army, he received a letter home from Jia Zheng. Jia Ke looked at the content of the letter and was filled with surprise and uncertainty.
Jia Ke had already been mentally prepared for Rongguo Mansion’s betrothal for him. After all, in ancient times, our children did not have the freedom to marry, and they all followed the orders of their parents and the matchmaker. Jia Ke has now integrated into the marriage very well.
This feudal dynasty didn't have much objection to this. Since it had received benefits, it had to take responsibility. But he didn't expect that his betrothal partner was actually Qin Keqing.
When Jia Ke watched Dream of Red Mansions in her previous life, she was the one who was most confused by the characters in it. An orphan girl who was adopted eventually became the wife of the Jia family. This is simply unbelievable. And the one she adopted together with her
The boy died not long after, which completely violated the ancient custom of male superiority and female inferiority. In the end, after his death, he was given a large-scale burial, and road memorials were set up in all the palaces. As well as her most suspicious way of death, and her
Rumors about my father-in-law crawling into ashes.
The only thing Jia Ke can be sure of now is that his arrival has changed the direction of Dream of Red Mansions. Qin Keqing becoming his fiancée is the most powerful proof.
However, he didn't take this matter to heart. With his current official position and power, he was enough to ensure the safety of himself and his family, and even had the ability to defeat the enemy. Jia Ke now had some small expectations in his heart, and wanted to see
Take a look at what the most beautiful woman in Dream of Red Mansions, Qin Keqing, who is known as both the hairpin and the hairdresser, looks like.
The engagement was quickly forgotten by Jia Ke. His main focus now was on hoarding supplies for the beginning of summer. He was preparing to carry out a large-scale northern expedition and beat the Tatars in pain. But when his
After the memorial was sent to the imperial court, it disappeared like a mud cow into the sea and disappeared.
It turns out that this year the Tatars started a large-scale internal fight. According to the information sent by Tang Kuai, the conflict between Alslen Khan and various tribes finally reached an irreconcilable point. The two sides had already fought several times on the grassland. In the war, everyone has his own victory or defeat. It seems that in recent times, he has not been able to invade the south. Therefore, the imperial court rejected Jia Ke's suggestion of a northern expedition based on the principle that doing more is worse than doing less.
After Jia Ke learned the news, he felt very angry. He finally felt the helplessness of the border generals being controlled by the imperial scholars. Originally, this was a great opportunity to make the Tatars unable to recover. Unexpectedly, the imperial princes gave up.
, Jia Ke was completely speechless about their short-sightedness.
However, with Jia Ke's current voice in the court, he was completely unable to change the court's plans, so Jia Ke tolerated it.
But for some reason, Jia Ke felt an indescribable joy in his heart. This joy could only be enjoyed silently by himself. Only the Tatars decided the winner and became stronger. Faced with such great pressure,
All the generals in the imperial court are useless, so the imperial court will use him and he will have a chance to climb up.
Jia Ke now has some expectations for Alsileng Khan to see if he can unify the grassland. As long as Alsileng Khan wins, he will definitely invade the south. By then, Coco will not be as petty as now. Then
That's when the princes of the imperial court regretted it
