Chapter 145: Military Merit Promotion System

After Zhu Houcong ran back, he first called Gu Dayong over. The capital and its surroundings were handed over to Yang Shen. Moreover, there was an army to suppress them, so nothing could be done. However, the Jinyi Guards were not enough outside.

However, it cannot be completely ignored. After all, as long as there is no uprising, Guda's use of Dongchang's fan should be enough to defend the people.

"This servant is here to greet Your Majesty, Your Majesty will live forever." Gu Dayong saluted Your Majesty as soon as he came up. It was a sincere gesture.

His life has been considered worthwhile. He has been favored by the two majesties, and the power in his hands has never been cut off. His majesty asked him to take charge of the East Factory. Although he did some dirty work, his rights were real, and there were also

The opportunity to grow that thing was a blast for him.

Of course, it's not just to please His Majesty, the main thing is that this thing is really interesting, and there are so many good things in it, not to mention gold and jade, the most important thing is that there are many weird gadgets.

"Get up, you've been working so hard outside." It just so happened that Gu Dayong came back to deliver something, otherwise he wouldn't be back for a while, but you can also see the exhaustion on Gu Dayong's face, it's really hard work.

.

"It's not hard, it's not hard for an old slave to work for His Majesty." Hearing His Majesty's concern, Gu Dayong's speech couldn't help but become moist. It's enough, it's enough, it's really enough to be cared about by His Majesty. Scholars are confidants.

After all, Gu Dayong is just an old dog. How could He De be so cared for by His Majesty?

"I asked you to come here this time because I have something to deal with. Let's put the matter at hand aside for now, spread all the rumors in your hands, and arrest some people who dare to spread rumors and cause trouble." Zhu Houxuan squinted his eyes, I want to

Let's see who dares to be the leader.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter?" Gu Dayong's eyes also showed a trace of viciousness. Who is impatient to live? This is, don't fall into the hands of me, Gu Dayong.

"It's nothing serious. Yan Song's operation is about to be completed. To prevent someone from jumping over the wall, it should be fine in the near future. You have to arrange your subordinates first, and the capital will be handed over to the Jin Yiwei. When you go out, you must not let anyone take advantage of it.

Opportunity." What Zhu Houcong said was very convincing. No matter who it is, arrest it first and then talk about it.

"Your Majesty, how hard should you use it, and how should you catch it?" Gu Dayong squinted his eyes, "Okay, is someone about to jump again? I'm the best at this."

"Everyone who spreads rumors will be arrested. You should also pay attention to the situation. However, if the trend becomes more and more serious, take all measures to suppress public opinion." Zhu Houcong squinted his eyes, although he knew that there would definitely be many people who were wronged if he did this.

But there is no other way. In troubled times, heavy laws are used. If this wave can be passed safely, he can survive for another two years, otherwise he will have to reveal his family fortune.

"With your Majesty's words, I can rest assured. Your Majesty, I can rest assured. I guarantee that no gossip will reach your ears." Gu Dayong squinted his eyes, which made people feel shuddering. Your Majesty, you can rest assured.

This sentence put him at ease. If anyone dares to be ignorant, don't blame him.

"Well, if you finish this matter, you can rest for a while. You can't finish this work, so you should rest for a while." He was still relieved about Gu Dayong, at least it had not happened for so long.

What's wrong? He does his job very well and is very loyal. He feels reassured by his job performance. Where can he find such subordinates?

"I don't have to work hard. It's my blessing to be able to work for Your Majesty. How can I have to work hard? Your Majesty, look at it. I promise that I won't let some people with bad intentions succeed." Gu Dayong's voice was very firm,

Anyone who goes against His Majesty will be at odds with Gu Dayong's life, and whoever is at odds with his life will not be able to get away with these guys even if they fight for their lives.

"Okay, you can weigh it yourself and go quickly. There must be no chaos. Some places are out of reach. But there must be no problems close to Nanjing and surrounding areas. The same goes for some important provinces. As for those farther away,

If you really can't control it, forget it. I want to see what tricks they can pull off." Zhu Houcong smiled coldly. He had already made preparations and was waiting for Yan Song to close the net. He didn't know how much money he could make from this.

After wasting so much effort, Zhu Houcong hopes that military expenditures in the next few years will not be a problem, but it is hard to say. Let's look at Yan Song. If Yan Song has a dark heart, he will probably make a lot of money. If he wants to keep the leek root, it doesn't matter.

That’s it.

Qi Jingtong hurriedly summoned his subordinates when he returned. Since His Majesty said he should organize the army, he should organize the army. The 50,000 reserve troops would not be left behind, and all of them would be incorporated directly. He still had some independent problems, such as his special training camp, God

The machine battalion and the three thousand battalions need to be independently established, so the establishment of the ten armies mentioned by His Majesty may be a little worse, and it is time to recruit more. He has inquired with Yan Song, Your Majesty is not short of money, he insists on it

Organize these ten military units fully.

"The general summoned us, why?" The deputy general was a little confused, but he heard that the general was summoned urgently by His Majesty. Could it be that His Majesty had some instructions?

"Stop the training in hand for a moment and summon generals at all levels to discuss important matters. There have been a lot of things recently, so you should pay more attention." Qi Jingtong looked serious. The reorganization of more than 200,000 troops is not that easy.

In particular, His Majesty only gave himself one month. Within this month, he not only had to complete the reorganization of the army, but also the training must not be left behind to form an effective combat effectiveness. The cooperation after the reorganization of the army must also be trained, and at least some reservations must be made.

A few days, otherwise, if you don’t recognize your superiors when you go to the battlefield, then why fight?

His initial idea was to disperse all the 150,000 people into the initial 100,000 people, so that effective combat effectiveness could be formed as quickly as possible.

However, because the two sides were training against each other at the beginning, it would be very troublesome to organize the army, so he immediately summoned senior generals to see how to do it quickly and well.

And because of the restructuring, there are many positions that need to be moved, especially the positions of these ten army commanders, which are very critical. According to His Majesty's wishes, this is basically equivalent to leading an army alone. You must choose the right person for this position.

.

Fortunately, General Wang had called him before and predicted that His Majesty would reorganize the army sooner or later, so that he could make preparations early. He actually had a preliminary idea in his mind, but he did not expect that Your Majesty would make the changes so early.

But fortunately, I was mentally prepared, otherwise I would have been confused. This kind of thing is easy to say, but it is a lot of work to do. And His Majesty just mentioned it like this. If he hadn't understood it, he wouldn't have dared to issue a military order.

, he is not stupid.

Qi Jingtong summoned the generals to discuss matters. The soldiers below did not know what was going on, and they were all discussing whether something big was going to happen. The biggest guess was that there was going to be a war.

They didn't resist going to the battlefield too much. After all, eating food and fighting was a natural thing, and besides, the military pay was not bad.

Moreover, General Qi also gave a reward system on the battlefield. The battlefield is based on the military merit system. As many enemy troops are killed as many merits are gained. These merits can be directly exchanged for silver, or they can be accumulated until a certain amount of military merit is accumulated.

You can get a certain official position.

This was the result of Zhu Houcong's careful consideration. Instead of directly conferring titles like the pre-Qin Dynasty, he adopted a more practical approach. After all, those were unrealistic things. He himself wanted to cancel the title. Why would he give titles to soldiers?

Are you bored?

However, these things are more practical and can be directly converted into money. The specific conversion ratio has not yet been released. Zhu Houcong means to wait and see the situation after one or several games. After all, this thing is difficult to calculate. How much military merit does one person have? How much military merit does one person have?

How much it will cost is a matter that needs to be discussed carefully.

The same goes for the promotion of positions. By accumulating a certain amount of military merit, you can get a promotion. Zhu Houcong meant that you can refer to the military rank system of later generations to distinguish it from the actual positions, but the actual positions must be held by people with a certain military rank.

Anyway, it's very complicated. In fact, it has been changed a lot, and because I haven't been on the battlefield yet, the matter has been put on hold. It just happened to take advantage of this military restructuring to implement all these. Military merit and military rank are linked, of course.

Now everyone has never been on the battlefield, so they definitely have no military merit. You can owe it first, and then the capable ones will be promoted and the mediocre ones will be demoted.

This is equivalent to breaking up the current military system and starting over again, but the benefits are unquestionable. Soldiers will definitely fight bloody battles. After all, military merit is equal to money and official position.

Later, Zhu Houcong also planned to link ranks with soldiers' career changes. These are just ideas. At present, it is difficult to achieve them all and they need to be modified step by step.

"Brother Wang Wu, do you think we are about to go to the battlefield? The general stopped the training of the entire army after he came back today. It feels very unusual." A thin soldier whispered to the fellow countrymen next to him.

murmured.

He joined the army three months ago, and he was among the earliest in the second batch. He is a fellow villager of Wang Wu. When Wang Wu returned to his hometown, he made them jealous, so he directly gave his family ten taels of silver. I

Oh my gosh, ten taels of silver. I heard that if you join the army, you will be paid one year in advance, so you will get ten taels of silver in one year.

Moreover, he also said that as long as you are capable in the army, you can eat meat every meal. What is the concept of that? Ordinary people may only be able to eat some meat during the Chinese New Year. What is the concept of eating meat every meal?

At first, everyone didn't believe what Wang Wu said, until Wang Wu took off his clothes and showed off his body of tendons. Such a guy would never be able to eat like this without oil and water, which made everyone a little envious.

Many young men in the village also had the idea of ​​joining the army, but Wang Wu immediately poured cold water on them. As far as he knew, their army was the only one with this kind of treatment, and it was already full. In a short time,

There seems to be no draft plan.

The first time he returned to his hometown, Wang Wu was in awe. From then on, he became more determined to follow General Qi's thoughts. Later, when he returned to his hometown for the second time, he had a mission. He heard that the army was going to be expanded, so he specially asked for leave.

Of course, he should tell his family about such a good thing as soon as possible. The boy next to him is one of his fellow villagers.

"Why, you kid is afraid of going to the battlefield. Why did you come here in the first place if you were afraid?"

"Who said they were afraid? I still want to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and perform meritorious service. I don't know how much money a head can exchange for. I also want to save some money to go back and marry a wife." Some thin fellow villagers are full of longing for the future.

"You kid, you haven't made any progress at all. What's the use of money? Killing enemies and making meritorious service to get promoted is the most important thing. Maybe I can become a general." Wang Wu's eyes were also full of yearning, imagining himself wearing the uniform of a general.

Armor, the scene of commanding an army, how majestic it is.

"Come on, Fifth Brother Wang, I believe in you. If you become a general, I will make money and go home to find a wife."

"If you have no future, you only know how to ask for a wife. You have no future at all." Wang Wu couldn't help but punch him. This guy must have lost his mind.

"But, but I just want a wife." The man curled his lips, but did not dare to speak loudly.

Many people in the army are whispering. Some have confused eyes, while others have firm eyes. Everyone has more or less dreams. There are many like Wang Wu, and there are also many who want to kill the enemy in exchange for money. However, no matter what, once they are on the battlefield,

Entering the battlefield, the morale of this army is undoubtedly high. Even the King of Hell, they dare to touch it.

This is just a microcosm of the military. Zhu Houcong felt that among the military systems of the past dynasties, only the Qin Dynasty was the best. Even the army led by the great leader was not good because there were too many things mixed in it.

There were too many feelings, complaints about the past, and desire for disciples. Zhu Houcong couldn't build such an army anyway, unless he wanted to kill himself.

In addition, the military merit system of the Qin Dynasty was the best. He improved it and added monetary rewards. For soldiers, as long as they kill the enemy and perform meritorious service, they will have everything they want. For the country, this

An army is invincible. Even if it is a dragon, I will turn into a hungry wolf and pounce on it to bite off a piece of meat.

Of course, the premise is that one must have absolute control over the army and have enough financial resources to maintain such a system. After all, if military merit is not valuable, then people will have no motivation to kill the enemy. If it is too valuable, it will not work. After all, Zhu Houcong is more

What I want to implement is the military rank system. This is a once and for all solution. It will also cultivate a large number of low-level officials at the grassroots level and completely break the only way to obtain scholars through the imperial examination.

This is not to say that the imperial examination is not good, but it will inevitably have some flaws, just like the military examination in ancient times, but it is not as valued as the imperial examination.

It is not that only scholars can govern the country well. Ordinary people also understand some principles. It is just that being illiterate will hinder many things, but there is still no problem in becoming some petty officials.

This move can be regarded as breaking down class boundaries and providing favorable conditions for future reforms.

Zhu Houcong himself can't say what the future will be like. He can only say that he is trying his best to transform the world according to his own ideas. However, he can't say the specific direction of the world. He can only say that people know the fate of destiny.
