What these people are born to do is to repay their own empire, and every ability in their body is done because of the empire. Now they are asked to stop doing these things one by one. How can this be justified?
None of them are fools, and they all feel that this matter must have a good outcome. Just like now, they all feel the threat from the Cao Family Trading Company. This kind of threat is not what it used to be.
This is a relatively small threat. Some powerful ministers and the like are not that serious. Now this threat has made them all feel a little helpless. They are all very aware of this problem, but what can they do now?
Not only was the economy of the entire empire controlled by others, but through the Cao Family Trading Company's defeat of the Third Army, they began to master some military matters again. Many scholars in this era did not necessarily just study;
There are many other talents, especially those who know a lot about military matters. Many people are also very accomplished in this field. They have carefully observed the garrison of the Cao Family Trading Company.
, during their training, these people often went up to observe, and finally came to a fatal conclusion, that is, these people's abilities are very powerful, and it is difficult to find some troops that can match them.
It is not an easy task. These people all feel that the tens of thousands of troops in a county are definitely no match for these people. Some people have also said that we don’t have city walls. As long as we close the city gate and lean against it,
Their dozens of people in the city can't do it at all. There are millions of people in the whole process, how come they can't deal with their dozens of people? This is also not very correct. The people of Cao's Trading Company are very powerful.
These people probably know how powerful that artillery thing is. Just like the large-caliber artillery, people in the four empires call them Vulcan things. Such things can be destroyed with one shot.
The city gate is open. How can those who only bully the common people think of defending themselves? What they have to do is to save their own lives as quickly as possible, something like protecting their home and country. Simply put,
It's a joke. But no one will care about this matter, and everyone is not a fool. It is better to let others do such things. Anyway, I will not do such things. That is because of their thoughts. These
Only knowledgeable people felt that relying on them was not enough. So they talked about this matter privately with some big nobles and big bureaucrats, as well as the magician union, and they were planning to form a militia. This thing is basically a militia.
The main purpose of the organization is to help the government troops fight the enemy when the Cao Family Trading Company's army attacks. It can also be regarded as a supplement to the force. These big capitalists soon saw a huge problem in this.
Rights, if you have soldiers under your command, then you will have a much greater say in the future. Yes, this matter can be done. Just let these people go out to instigate this matter, and we will pay for it, but we absolutely cannot
The people standing at the front desk must be these scholars. They all know these things. With them in front, we will save a lot of trouble. Besides, whether the court can pass it is still very important.
As for the problem, we don’t need to worry about it. These people will find ways to deal with it. When they do things, the court will consider their status more. After all, these people are all officials and people with merit and fame. They are no better than us.
These businessmen have nothing to do with face, so what they do must be very good.
Even the people in the Cao Family Trading Company did not expect that they would have such a brain, and would even think of such a thing as a militia. The top and bottom members of the Cao Family Trading Company also began to discuss this thing, and they did not say anything later, because they also
They all feel that this thing can only make the situation more chaotic. If the society remains unchanged and the people of the Cao Family Trading Company are allowed to slowly push the wheel of history, this seems to be a bit slow, and the effect is not necessarily certain.
How good it would be, but it is completely different to let these leaders do this thing. Whether these people do things or do other things, they are all very good. If they come forward, many ordinary people will be
Will support it. Sometimes, because of the bad reputation of officials, the common people who speak a lot do not believe them. In their opinion, these officials are all full of bad things. When they do things,
None of them came here to see this, they all wanted to see other things. All they thought about were useless things. Whether these people were doing things or doing other things, they thought first.
A matter is neither the interests of the empire nor the people's affairs. It is all about whether they will have income in their own pockets. How can such officials have the support of the people? It is for this reason that these elite officials have changed their minds.
The common people feel that these candidates are all educated by sages, and they do not have a bad reputation. If they become officials of the empire, they will definitely be better than these. Why don't they want to
I thought, how could those who were officials become officials if they had not gained fame by reading books about sages? It is impossible for the empire to just go to the street and find someone to be an official. This is impossible.
This is just the change of generations. These officials also lived a very clean life when they were not officials. At that time, their minds were full of things like reimbursing the empire, but now they are thinking about that
Those lofty words at that time, everyone must feel that there is something wrong with their brains. Otherwise, how could they say so many words without thinking deeply? The first thing to consider now is your own problem. What should you do now?
If the official cannot leave a lot of wealth to future generations, then his family will slowly disappear in the long river of history. This militia is a serious conflict for local forces, and they will definitely not
Will allow something like this to come out. In name, it is very good, for the empire. We are all for the empire every day, but we are also doing some things to fight for power. This militia may have been very good at the beginning.
Yes, but it may change after a period of time. At that time, the leaders inside will also have some selfish motives of their own. After they master the militia, they will want to master more things. At that time, they will follow
Now that there is a conflict between powerful groups, how can they let their opponents gain so much power? This is simply an act seeking death, but His Majesty the Emperor has another consideration. No matter how these people do
After all, it is to increase the strength of our empire. Now the army can no longer continue to expand, and the huge military expenditure will crush them to death every year, so this militia can appear, and they can have some of their own
As long as it is not good for the Cao family business, anything is allowed. The game between local officials and the central group began at this time, and the militia was the trigger.
Local officials believe that such activities are simply impossible to start. For them, if such things continue, at least one-third of their rights will be lost. How can they allow such things to happen?
Yes, it is better to be honest about such things, so all local officials basically don’t think highly of this militia. Of course, their excuses are basically the same. They think that the militia cannot be formal because the government does not
Give them funds. Their money is made by these traitors themselves. It is difficult to control it. Don't bring them up in the future. On the contrary, there will be many problems on your own side. Things like this are also difficult to control.
They all felt very helpless. The central government of the imperial court fully supported this militia at the beginning, thinking that the common people could just devote a few hours a day, and the rest would not require much attention.
It is definitely a big deal. Of course, the central group also knows clearly that these militia members cannot have such strong fighting power, so the central government treats these people as cannon fodder and lets them go up whenever there is a war.
It's okay to hold on for a while. Even if you stand there and get killed by the Cao Family Trading Company's army, it will take several hours. As for other things, I really haven't thought about it. The military representatives in the court don't really agree with this matter.
Yes, they believe that such a militia can be formed during the war, because they will all have a common enemy, and the people in the militia are also bloody. If they feel the enemy is threatening them, these people will
They agree with the enemy, at least there won't be so many problems in society, but now is a period of peace, and according to the information they got from the Cao Family Trading Company, there will be no trouble with the Cao Family Trading Company in the near future. The military side
This is the point of view. If the militia demands the same treatment as the regular army, this matter will really not be easy to handle. The empire can't come up with the money. Don't let them all end up like having breasts and being a mother.
People, it’s really troublesome now. Sometimes these things need to be considered. The senior officials of the imperial court were very excited at the beginning and wanted to approve this immediately. However, many people’s opinions
They also made them quiet down. If this matter really increases the strength of the empire, it would be okay, but if some ambitious people end up setting up militia groups, it will not be a good thing. Don't do anything at that time.
Speaking of the Cao Family Trading Company, even these people themselves may not be able to do anything to them. In the end, it will be a big mess. This is absolutely possible, so it is better not to do this now, but it has to be done.
Strengthening one's military capabilities is also something that people in the four major empires should do now. In the end, a member of the royal family of the Eastern Empire expressed his own opinion. He believed that all members of the royal family should at least be reliable. None of them
He hoped that the empire would collapse, so the emperor should let some outstanding members of the royal family go to various places to strengthen the construction of militia groups. They could be the leaders of the militia groups in name only. Of course, because they did not know much about military affairs, they could only
It can be a nominal one, and you can find some relatively capable people from the army to serve as instructors of the militia. In this case, you can do a better job. This kind of thing should be very good.
Not to mention, this kind of thing really makes many people seem to see hope, but His Majesty the Emperor himself can't stand it. Of course, members of the royal family are loyal to the empire, and there is no need to consider this. Because they
They are the biggest parasites in the empire. If there is any problem in the empire, their life will definitely not be easy. It is impossible to live such a comfortable life in the future. At this time, another one comes out
Here’s a question. The members of the royal family are good at what they do, but their ambitions are not small. If they don’t want to continue to be leaders of the militia because their subordinates’ rights have been expanded, what should they do? Damn these people.
These guys are all sons and grandsons of dragons. If these people really want to do something, they will have a lot of things to do. By then, their throne may not be preserved. Such things are also likely to happen. The Cao family
As for the people in the trading company, they were watching this joke happily. In fact, Li Li had said this a long time ago. This is definitely a failure. The barrel of the gun must be in his own hands. If the emperor cannot do it,
If this is the case, it will definitely fail in the future. If you catch it in your own hands, you need to pay for it. Besides, these giants don't all have what they say in their hearts. They are all for the empire.
They also have their own ideas, and the families behind them are not small. When these people do things, they will more or less consider their own family affairs, especially in their local area, where the family is already
It is very huge. At this time, with the help of the militia, the idea of cutting off territories and making kings may come up. At that time, the empire will become torn apart. Of course, this is the most important time.
It will happen. If it is not important, it is entirely possible that such a situation will not happen. Each of these people's thoughts are very meticulous, and each of these people is very clear about everything.
It was planned for himself. Li Li told some senior executives of the Cao Family Trading Company that there is no need for us to go in and destroy this matter. We just need to see what these people think. Each of them has some strange things.
When they all express their thoughts, it is estimated that when this militia group fails, the army needs an iron discipline. Let alone the militia group, even the regular armies of the four major empires do not have such discipline. Sometimes
These people can only be like this in front of them. When they finally do other things, they will bring huge disasters to the people. At that time, they were a cancer. The most feared thing is that people from the four empires can
After setting up this militia, the Cao Family Trading Company must not seek trouble in the near future. Some armies all collapsed in peacetime and may become ace armies in wartime. Therefore, we
I will not give you this opportunity. In the end, the militia group that has been discussed for half a month was first started in the Eastern Empire. Everyone in the Eastern Empire can form a militia group of about 300 people. The person who directly leads them is
The members of the royal family who are stationed in this province are basically people with titles, and the Eastern Empire will not let them act recklessly. There will be a competition every year, and the winner can become the new deputy commander.
One of them is that the title of the royal family member can be improved.
As I said before, it can be said that members of the royal family don't care much about general rewards. For ordinary people, money and power are the things they need most, but for members of the royal family, this is nothing.
Take the third-class light chariot captain with the lowest title, for example. This is the lowest title among the royal family. Generally, members of the royal family have such titles. Their grades are already the third rank. This is already the same as the provincial governor.
The envoy's department and the tax department are on the same level. For a legitimate third-grade official, the annual salary of an ordinary third-grade official is 15,000 taels of silver. They take this silver, and at the same time they also have a silver from the royal family.
Counting other incomes every year, there are about 50,000 taels of silver. Of course, for those members of the royal family, this is just their expenses for a few days. They are all sons and grandsons of the dragon. How can they rely solely on the imperial court?
They live on a salary, so these things are not what they pursue. What they pursue is to move up to the next level of their title. This is a completely different thing. For example, if an earl is promoted to a marquis, then his
The eldest son will still be an earl, and the other sons will also be viscounts instead of the current barons. This is related to future generations, so these people are all very caring. Besides,
, the Eastern Empire implemented such a policy much better than the other three empires. The royal family members of the other three empires were all trapped in the capital. They were not allowed to go out. Each of these people usually
There was no way to go out when they were young. What these people yearned for was to go out and see the outside world. However, His Majesty the Emperor felt that if these people were let out, it would be very sad in the future. Look,
From their looks, you can tell that these people will not do these things peacefully. Sometimes these people are also very dangerous. To the empire, they are all the same, but to the emperor, they are not the same. The Eastern Empire has already
They have adapted to this method. The rebellion of the Linghu family caused the emperor of the Eastern Empire to carry out royal reforms. Each of the royal children became local officials in various places, and it can be said that they did very well.
Yes, these people all work for their own titles, but they do very impressive things. They usually look like idlers. But how could the sons of dragons and grandsons be incapable of doing anything? In the past,
The reason why they don't do it is because there is nothing that attracts them. Now it is different from the past. Now they are very diligent in what they do, and their title will be improved, and there will be many in the future.
People are flattering themselves. It is estimated that anyone would be willing to do such a thing. They have been fighting for their own title all their lives, but the other three empires did not go so smoothly. First of all, the Southern Empire
We are not planning to form any militia. They are all under the control of the Cao Family Trading Company. In other empires, a county is a company of troops, but here they are a regiment, which is four or five times that of others. It is their own place.
It can be said that the army has no effect at all. Now the Southern Empire is just like a vassal of the Cao Family Trading Company. They don't know why it has changed so fast. They don't want to become like this. There were still some in the past.
There was so much sovereignty, but now unfortunately, there is nothing left. The people of the Cao Family Commercial Bank will not let them have so many rights. The people of the Cao Family Commercial Bank simply want to control them all.
People in the Northern Empire and the Western Empire had two situations. Unexpectedly, after the quarrel between the local government and the central government had just ended, the royal families in the two empires started to quarrel again. Generally speaking, the emperor's son and grandson
It can be said to be the royal family, but other royal families will be called clans. There is a big difference between the royal family and the clan. Although they are all descendants of the dragon, they are like the direct descendants of a wealthy family.
It's the same as the collateral line. The other clans are just like concubines. The direct descendants will have the throne when they are born. The concubine will only be given one title. As for other things, it is impossible.
Many people will feel uncomfortable when things like this happen. The concubines didn’t feel anything at all in the beginning, but it’s different now. Why can their direct descendants inherit the throne, but we can’t? How is this possible?
?Are we farther away from them in terms of blood? No, the main reason is that our background is not as good as theirs. This is the need of Confucian education. This education will always tell those who are born from a concubine how important it is to be born by a direct descendant or a concubine.
They are all very depressed about this kind of thing. The emperor is also very wary of the clan. Although you are all from the same ancestor, at least we don’t know what you are thinking in your mind. Who
I wonder if you will just make a fuss like that. If so, we really don’t know how to control you. This time is a chance for them. At the same time, the emperor is also giving the clan a test. Take the Western Empire.
People can see it. The militia groups in various places raise their own military salaries. If they are in a place with a developed economy, it is naturally easier to set up, but in a place that is not so good, the salary money can be used.
Not very good, but it will directly affect their results in the end. It depends on what you do at this time. If you want a good title, you will definitely pay for it yourself. Of course, if you do it yourself
If you don't have money, but you can get the money yourself, that's also a very good thing. But what I'm afraid of is the kind of people who don't do anything. Anyway, this matter has already caused trouble before it even started.
It was quite a contradiction. His Majesty the Emperor even wanted to put this matter on hold. Unexpectedly, as soon as he revealed this, the princes from all over the country became unwilling. They finally got this opportunity, and they all needed it.
Their sons who were born from concubines were given some opportunities. The legitimate sons of the princes could obtain the title of marquis or even duke, but the most they could get was an earl. Even this was impossible for their sons.
With this opportunity, as long as we go out and hang out for a while, we can basically improve our title. In addition, when the old prince is still here, no matter how we hang out, we will be much better than before.
It depends on how to operate this matter. Although it is difficult, you can still live very well anyway. Now His Majesty the Emperor is going to kill our hope with just one word. Isn't this too cruel?
What's the point? You must know that we are all ready to do this. Just because you abolished this matter with just one sentence, I guess no one will agree, and neither will other people.
The emperors of the Western Empire and the Northern Empire cannot all do things according to their own wishes at this time. This is simply forcing them. They have never seen the clan kings working together like this. At this time, they all feel
It turns out that this matter is not that simple. The conspiracy among this militia group is really too big. They all think that this was done by people from the Cao Family Trading Company. If Li Cong knew that they would miss him so much, he would definitely do his best.
Han was wronged for running out, because this matter had nothing to do with him at all. He really didn't know what to say. This was obviously something that people in your empire remembered, and they all had good intentions, too.
They all want to help the empire truly embark on the road of prosperity. Who knows that all of you are a group of people who don't know how to do things. If you do such a thing, you have no other choice but to say it hard. If
If you didn't give this job to these royal children, this situation wouldn't have happened. Of course, ordinary people would probably not believe it. Otherwise, how corrupt you are, in the end, the relationship between the Western Empire and the Northern Empire
There is nothing anyone can do. People in the Eastern Empire have already started to implement it, and according to the news sent back from there, the militia organizations in the Eastern Empire already have more than 100 million people. Although these people cannot be used as regular troops, they can
During the war, more or less can serve as reserve forces. There is no need to capture strong men when the war is very fierce. Not only does the reputation not be very good, but the combat effectiveness of those captured soldiers is also not very good.
, they feel that such things are still okay. Besides, why is the Eastern Empire stronger than us? It’s because people are good at accepting some new things. This is the case now. If our own place can’t keep up with others.
, it may become even more backward. The offshore development is a good example. Look at the East Empire, which is much stronger than them in almost everything. If you really want to resist, you will need several empires to unite.
Yes, he is also the emperor of the empire, and so is I. At that time in our ancestors, everyone was basically on the same level. Why is he now a rich man, while he is still an emperor of silk? After thinking about these things,
Each of these people knew what they should do and worked hard to catch up. Of course, the people they trusted more were assigned better places, and those who couldn't trust them simply left it alone, and they also chose from some candidates.
There is a panel of judges who are responsible for scoring these princes to see who among them is truly useful to the empire. This panel of judges is directly responsible to the emperor. You don’t need to listen to what other people say.
He said that in the end, the referee group in the city was the most useful thing in this militia. It would have been impossible in the past. They, the emperors, could be considered to have broken out of the siege. The siege of those ministers, before
At that time, all they knew about the world was what the ministers told them. Now that there is another channel, these people can also talk about this matter. The people are really happy about the rights they have obtained, but those people
The ministers were not very willing. How could such a thing happen? I really don’t know how these people planned it. In the end, it was they who had vested interests who suffered the loss. In fact, this is a normal thing.
In fact, every change in history has been a loss for those with vested interests. If you want to change, you must give up some of your rights. This is considered a cake for others. If you want these people to do things for you, then you
You must satisfy people's desires. If you can't even satisfy this, the matter will not be very good. Let the officials be fed first, then they can do other things. For their decisions
The Cao Family Trading Company didn't say anything. Li Li just asked the people in the intelligence department to pay attention to this matter. After the last joint operation, it can be said that Li Li's current prestige is ranked behind Li Cong.
However, this guy's ability is still too bad. Although he has reached the seventh level of the Magic Stone at this age, it can be said that many people are very envious of him. It is clear that this guy is an absolute genius, but compared with
There is still a big gap between those monster-like people, but given time, this person will definitely be very good. Now the power of the Cao family business is basically in the hands of this guy, and Wu Zuoxi and others are also willing to assist
For such a talented person, in their opinion, it is a good thing that Li Cong has fewer descendants. If there are many brothers, the future division of the family will bring huge losses to the people of the Cao family business.
.This is better, at least it will save a lot of things. The matter of the militia is actually a good opportunity for the people of the Cao family business. As mentioned above, as long as the candidates are from well-off families, they can
Those who can create a militia group, Cao's Commercial Bank has many such people, and they have been developing in society for so many years, but the families of these cadres in Cao's Commercial Bank are average, and I want them to provide money to set up a militia group.
There are still some things that are impossible. The experts from the Cao Family Trading Company have made a lot of calculations on this matter. Generally speaking, a county must have at least more than a thousand militiamen. This is more than a thousand people.
, eating, drinking, and having sex all require money. Although there is no way to compare with the regular army, they must at least have the necessary weapons and equipment. If you can't form a militia, you need others to do it yourself, even if the empire provides it.
The price of the simplest equipment is listed, but one person still needs nearly ten taels of silver. This is still the price of ordinary infantry. According to the order of the court, there must be at least one hundred cavalry in a county and the remaining two hundred.
The archers, and the rest are all infantry. There was not much attention paid to the archers in the past, but it is different now. These archers are now like treasures, because after working with the Cao Family Trading Company
They can only be used when people are fighting against each other. That is why the training required for archers cannot be relaxed. These archers are trained one by one and cannot be born.
Yes, this is not logical at all. If these people want to organize these people, not to mention other things, they will need more than 20,000 taels of silver just to buy equipment. There are also issues with their training and accommodation.
The total fixed expenses are about 50,000 silver. Of course, you have to pay when you come. Although it is a non-governmental organization, you have to pay 1 tael of silver a month. If it is less than this number, it will definitely be
No one went there. It was only 12,000 taels of silver this year. Of course, the cavalry must be a little more than this. For them, such things happen often. For ordinary wealthy families,
, in a royal city, a family worth one million silver would be considered a big one, and usually it would be only a few hundred thousand silver.
It is absolutely impossible for them to spend 200,000 taels of silver every year to support such a militia. Even if it is divided, tens of thousands of taels of silver for a family every year is not a small amount. In a short time, they may
They will all pay for it, but if they find that this thing has no effect at all in the future, I don’t know if they will pay for it at that time. These people are not fools, and they will not do such a thing.
Yes, no one thinks that they have a lot of money and spend it everywhere. This is impossible. The people from the Cao Family Trading Company appeared at this time. In fact, we can help you with the money you have.
, Of course, in the future, we, the Cao Family Trading Company, will have to help you when we do things. If you don’t help, we will not do this in the future. Everything needs to be calculated slowly, and a lot of
The people in the big unit are actually very opposed to this militia. For them, political struggle is not something they can participate in. Although the militia can make them stronger, they really don't have much understanding of this thing now.
Because of their emotions, they don’t want to do these things, but when they think about how there are people in their own families, this is the same as urging donations, but it’s just more upright. Isn’t it said that all scholars are patriotic?
, why can’t you come out with a little money? If this happened in the past, you would definitely have to be dragged out to do things. These people will wear hats for you. They have no choice but to accept the help of the Cao Family Trading Firm.
Yes, the money was paid by people from the Cao Family Trading Company, and those who went to the militia to take charge were also people from the Cao Family Trading Company. This group of people were called traitors, and many people knew about it but did not speak out. This thing is being done everywhere
Yes, if people from the Cao Family Trading Company are concerned about this, they seem to have nothing to gain from it, and they have already seen the weakness of the government this time. If they go against the Cao Family Trading Company, they will end up with nothing.
It won't do any good. The empire is now weak and they don't have much strength to do things. Now they are not very radical about the Cao Family Trading Company, as long as it does not threaten them.
They won't do it or take care of it. In the end, they can only watch these things honestly. The people of the Cao Family Trading Company account for at least 100% of the militia in the Western Empire and the Northern Empire.
10. It is not easy for him to overdo this matter. After all, the emperors of the two empires are also watching these things. The intelligence organizations of the two empires also quickly got the news and then transmitted it to the capital.
It's the same thing as them. Those people won't say anything. How to do this? Go up and argue with the people from Cao's Trading Company for a while? They don't have the courage. What if there is really a riot?
It will be a war. Who will fight at that time? We have just lost the war. How can we start messing around because of such a small problem? Besides, now is a time of striving for development, and there must be no fighting. Cao
The people in the family business are very sensible and have not done anything excessive about this matter. It is only 10%. They can just let these royal family members get out the 10% slowly. Anyway, for them
This is an easy thing to say, but sometimes the idea is good, but if you actually do it, it will... (To be continued...)
