Chapter 3932: Entering Su to worship the nobility and form a militia group
Liu Yu murmured: "Isn't this the policy used by the Qin and Han Dynasties in the past? Donate a certain amount of money and food to those powerful people, and then give them some low-level titles. If
If there is a vacancy in the official position, these people who bought the title can also be considered as substitutes, right?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, but this policy has a lot of room for operation. Not only the Qin and Han Dynasties, but also our Jin Dynasty have never done this. When you and I were still in Jingkou, Diao Kui took office.
Our parents, the officials, became the governor of Southern Xuzhou, didn’t they rely on this kind of grain harvest to gain titles?”
Liu Yu said with a smile: "He did not buy grain to pay homage, but directly bribed Sima Daozi and donated more than two million stones of military rations and 100,000 pieces of cloth. It can be considered that he spent more than half of the proceeds from the search over the years, and then bought
After getting an official position, during the Jin Dynasty, we did not openly adopt the policy of joining the millet and worshiping the nobility."
Liu Muzhi sighed: "But even though there was no written law at that time, it was still done because the Jin Dynasty wanted to fight against the Hulu, and it needed to gather the strength of the whole country, and a family like the Diao family also needed to contribute.
So we have to give them various official appointments and wishes, not only titles, but even the governor of an important town like Jingkou, also given to Diao Kui."
Liu Yu frowned: "I still can't let go of this matter. It's a fact that the imperial court is short of money. We should find a way to get Diao Kui to donate money and give him some rewards in return. But even if we give Diao Kui a six-book minister
He cannot act recklessly in Jingkou because of his official position. Jingkou is the only place in the Jin Dynasty besides Jingzhou that can produce elite soldiers and generals. If he harms Jingkou, who will protect the country in the future?"
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "This is the great thing about Mr. Xianggong at that time. He knew that it would be like this, but he still agreed that Diao Kui should follow Sima Daozi's approach to handle this matter. Do you know why?
?”
Liu Yu said thoughtfully: "I want to force our heroes in Jingkou to have no choice but to join the army to serve the country. After Diao Kui did a series of evil things, Commander Xuan came forward to drive Diao Kui away. This way
We will all be grateful to the Xie family for their kindness, and we will naturally join the Beifu Army they formed."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "This is one reason, but not the whole reason, because Mr. Xianggong is restricted by the mafia and borrows not only the Diao family's money, but also the huge mafia power behind the Diao family. If the mafia
The party secretly instructs the wealthy families under their control to donate money and food. Diao Kui would not do such a thing. After all, this is tantamount to selling an official position for money and will leave a bad reputation. This is what Mr. Xiangong wants.
This deal was pushed to Sima Daozi. It can even be said that he handed over the power of the prime minister and retired to the mountains, leaving only Commander Xuan to form an army as this deal."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "But if a civil uprising is triggered in Jingkou, I might even kill Diao Kui at the slightest thought. Is it possible that my husband can predict and control such a situation?"
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "Man's calculation is not as good as God's. I think that in a moment of righteous indignation, we paid homage to General Zu according to the Jingkou rules, and then joined forces to attack the Governor's Mansion. It was beyond their imagination. If
If Xuan Shuai had not arrived in time, the consequences would have been disastrous, so my husband probably thought you were difficult to control and wanted to use the wonderful sound to tie your heart and keep you."
Liu Yu shook his head: "That's all, there's no need to mention these old things. So, you mean this kind of thing of buying grain to worship the nobility, paying money and donating officials, there are precedents in the Jin Dynasty, so you can quote the stories of that year, in
Is Qingzhou doing the same thing? Then what if this kind of thing becomes a trend and running for offices and buying titles becomes a fixed routine across the country?"
Liu Muzhi said calmly: "The control of this kind of thing is in your hands, just like when Diao Kui and dozens of aristocratic families used this method to advance several levels, but after the Feishui Battle, there was no
People do this kind of thing because neither the people in charge in the DPRK nor the mafia behind it will allow this to happen again."
"You are now in control of the political power. You have the final say. If Qingzhou is initially designated, we need to promote enlightenment and integrate the Hu people. We should use this as an opportunity to set up schools, impart academic knowledge, teach people the way of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, and solve the problems of the officials who stayed in Qingzhou.
On the issues of education and education for the sons and nephews of officers and soldiers, they can also teach Wang Hua through words and deeds."
"Because the imperial court is constantly fighting wars and has tight funds, it only recruits patriotic people to donate money and food in Qingzhou, and awards a certain number of titles according to the amount as a reward. I think no one can say this.
What's the objection?"
Liu Yu smiled and said: "But after you have been awarded so many titles at once, aren't you afraid that the noble family will suspect that you want to replace them?"
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "Didn't you send troops to Qingzhou this time in exchange for the support of the noble family on the condition that you can be promoted as a clerk in the army? They have given three to four hundred for more than a year.
We have allocated ten thousand shi of military rations to them and more than 1,400 titles. So in Qingzhou, we can collect one million shi of funding for running a school and give out about 400 titles. Why not?"
Liu Yu nodded: "More than four hundred, is that enough?"
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "I have calculated this, and it is enough. But originally I wanted to use the money to form an army, but now since I have to set up a school first, build the Lanxiang Official School and the security group,
And further establish education in Qingzhou. As for the expansion of the army and recruitment, we can only postpone it for a while. Send slaves, you have no objection."
Liu Yu curled his lips: "In other words, if you do this, you won't be able to send me reinforcements from Qingzhou within a year?"
Liu Muzhi sighed: "Yes, and to set up a security group, we must also disperse a large number of conscripted civilians sent by powerful powers from all over Qingzhou to assist in the war, led by a small number of Beifu sergeants, to various townships and towns.
A security group has been set up, but according to your opinion, these people are hired as soldiers, not soldiers of the imperial court, so you only need to pay them, and compared with the cost of the army, you may be able to save some."
"The local Han sergeants in Qingzhou have not practiced fighting for a long time. They spent exactly one year training in the security group with Beifu soldiers and Qingzhou veterans who had actual combat experience this time. It took eight months at the fastest and one and a half years at the slowest time. I
We will definitely be able to recruit tens of thousands of elites from these people, and then you will be able to come in handy."
Liu Yu said seriously: "In this year, you don't have enough troops. The people who originally planned to form an army have dispersed to the school to provide security. If a foreign enemy invades at this time, can you defend Qingzhou?"
