Chapter 860 Compulsory military service in the new territory
"Emperor, the compulsory military service system also starts with a new territory?" Zuo Zongtang, the left prime minister of the cabinet, does not care about military affairs, but the compulsory military service system is obviously linked to civil affairs. Now the cabinet, the Grand Marshal's Office and the Constitutional Assembly are referring to France and Prussia.
Measures to formulate the "Ming Dynasty Compulsory Military Service Law".
"That's what I mean." Emperor Zhu nodded and said, "The population of the northeastern provinces is now close to 5 million, and there is still a lot of room for growth. It should reach 20 million within 10 years. Mongolian provinces and eastern provinces
The population of Siberia is estimated to reach 5 million. The Grand Duchy of Lanfang is the largest, and it can definitely exceed 30 million.
In addition, I also plan to expand Jiaozhou Province, merge the Annan Governor's District into Jiaozhou Province, and expel the Annan people who are unwilling to naturalize the Ming Dynasty. Within 10 years, there will be a population of 5 million there.
Finally, I will immigrate to Xinjiang, Hexi, Qinghai and Kazakh Khanate lands, and the collective farms and people there will also reach more than 5 million. In this way, 65 million people will be under the compulsory military service system, compared with
The total population of any great power in Europe is large. Even if it mobilizes millions of troops, it is not impossible!”
The 60 million of this 65 million population is not only under the compulsory military service system, but also a compulsory education system will be implemented on the land where they live.
In most parts of the world, these two systems are often implemented in a supporting manner. A strong man who has not received modern education and has not been brainwashed by nationalism and nationalism thoughts, even if he is pulled into the army, it is difficult to become a real person.
The elite army - the Ming army now looks quite powerful, but in fact it just relies on the good weapons to bully the Russians and Tartars. The former is also troubled by the serf system and cannot be regarded as a real modern army, while the latter
It was completely a feudal army.
If the Ming army encounters the French or Prussian army, if there is no overwhelming number advantage, it will probably be beaten by others. This is also the reason why our Emperor Zhu is not very tough in the British and French powers.
Moreover, the source of the combat effectiveness of the Ming army was not only excellent weapons, but also the army was probably the best military field. Although the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were receiving nationalist education every day, the best brainwashing period had passed after all, and they really made them work hard for the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
It’s not ideology, but the 40 acres of real military land!
However, the military land system cannot be implemented forever. Because the number of land in the 18 provinces of Han area is only a little bit, most of which have owners. What can be used to grant fields is the confiscated flags and land and finally the Qing Dynasty
The land of bureaucrats and gentry was only tens of millions of acres, and now it has been almost the same, so the military land system has come to an end without any success.
The current replacement is the military household system. This is a system that combines military service and immigration. The land used to grant land is mainly concentrated in Liaoning Province, Rehe Province, and Chahar, which are close to the mainland and have good public security.
The province, Suiyuan Province, and military households can also obtain land ownership. The cost is 20 years of military service.
However, the military household registration system is not a long-term solution, because no matter how much land is, it will be a day after the grant. Moreover, as the land granted is getting farther and farther away from the Central Plains, its attractiveness to the people in the mainland is also declining. Therefore, the compulsory military service system must be improved.
It's on the agenda.
The Ming Dynasty was a big country with vast land and a large population. Nothing could be done overnight, but could only be implemented in steps and batches. Compulsory education and compulsory military service are no exception. The one who has the most conditions to implement these two systems is undoubtedly the small number of people.
There are many lands, and the people's lives are relatively prosperous.
"In addition, the Han area of the Ming Dynasty should also gradually implement compulsory education and compulsory military service." Zhu Jishi frowned, "First of all, the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty and the sons of nobles have the obligation to serve in the military! If each family has more than two sons,
, there is one person who is responsible for military service!”
"Emperor!" Zuo Zongtang and Luo Zenan were almost stunned at the same time. They looked at Emperor Zhu in a steady manner. It would be fine if the officers of the Ming Dynasty were born. They usually would not study the Four Books and Five Classics to take the scholars. They were the ones who took the Army and Navy Military Academy to become officers.
The goal of life is to strive for. But the sons of civil servants of Daming... They are all scholars, how can they join the army? Wouldn't they be gentle and discarded?
"Your Majesty, I don't agree." Zuo Zongtang said seriously, "Hundreds of thousands of civil servants and tens of millions of scholars in the world will probably not agree with this matter."
Luo Zenan also said in a deep voice: "Emperor, everything should be open to the Internet..."
"Open the net?" Emperor Zhu's eyes swept across Zuo Zongtang, Luo Zenan, Miao Peilin and the father and son of the Li family one by one, and took their expressions into their eyes. Everyone frowned, they fell down.
They are not worried about their children, but at most they can let a son take the military academy or be a guard for Emperor Zhu. They are worried about the opposition of scholars all over the world.
"It's just a matter of opening the Internet." Zhu Jishi's face softened. "Anyone who can get into a scholar before the age of 20, or who can get into a university, a junior college, or an education college can be exempted from military service."
"Your Majesty, why not allow him to donate money and exempt him from labor?" Zuo Zongtang took a step forward and made another suggestion.
"Donate donations and exemptions...How about 1,000 silver dollars?"
"Emperor, most of the Ming officials are honest people..."
"Then it's 800 silver dollars, no more reduction!" Zhu Jishi said in a deep voice. "In the "Compulsory Military Service Law", when a punishment clause for evading military service is formulated, you will be punished for 10 years of hard labor!"
Our Emperor Zhu is not good at cutting messes in his own country, but the method of boiling frogs in warm water has become more and more clever. Of course, it is not really necessary to let a group of bureaucrats go to the homes of Ming officials.
As a soldier, he wanted to take the opportunity to expand the territory of new education and let more officials go to new schools. Now the main force that excludes new schools is still Confucian officials. If their children also learn new schools, they will be able to pass
With the way to become a new student, they will naturally no longer blindly reject the new student.
After talking about the "Compulsory Military Service Law", Zuo Zongtang and Luo Zenan retreated. Emperor Zhu waved to Miao Peilin and the father and son of the Li family, and asked them to come forward to speak.
"Has the North Korean equalization measures been formulated?"
Miao Peilin said: "The first draft has been formulated."
"Come on."
Pan Zuyin took a stack of manuscripts from Miao Peilin and handed them to Emperor Zhu with both hands.
"Migrating the wealthy families... This is a good idea. The North Korean thing is to destroy these two wealthy families, so they can't stay where they are."
Similar to China, North Korea is also a country that was destroyed by Confucian scholars. However, unlike China, North Korea is not the Lee Dynasty and the scholars share the world, but the scholars monopolize politics. The King of the Lee Dynasty is almost a puppet, and North Korea does not have it.
Some villains such as eunuchs and eunuchs are in power. Although there is a practice of being the autocratic relatives of foreign power, almost all the foreign relatives in power are two wealthy families, and they are also Confucian scholars and officials.
In addition, North Korea's clan power is far stronger than China. Behind each and two wealthy families is a huge clan, such as the Andong Kim family, Fengrong Zhao family, Jeonju Li family, Li Xing Min family, etc., all of which are like this.
.Therefore, the characteristics of Korean politics are the decline of royal power, and the gentry power and clan power monopolize power. Therefore, Emperor Zhu's various measures to rectify North Korea were carried out around cracking down on gentry power, clan power, and strengthening the monarchy power.
"The idea is good, but it still needs to be implemented well. Li Hanzhang, you, your father and son are both important officials of the Ming Dynasty. I trust you very much, just let it go!"
Li Hanzhang bowed and said, "I should devote myself to my whole life to repay the emperor's kindness for knowing his grace."
Zhu Jishi smiled and nodded, "Your brother Li Hongzhang was very popular in Xinjiang, and he was playing with many He Zhuo to applaud. However, the two wealthy families in North Korea are masters who play with power, don't compete with them.
, just use force to defeat it. In addition, Min Zhilu, the daughter of North Korea's political leader, is Hong'er's future concubine, but there is no need to worry. She is just a concubine. She is just a means to appease the hearts of the North Korean people and will not become a regular person in the future.
