Because it is a government military system and it is "on the top", the country basically has no idle and free soldiers and quasi-military personnel to maintain the stability of the regime and social order, and this has greatly reduced the country's military expenditure, that is, greatly reduced the burden on the people! It also ensures the progress and development of agricultural production! Unlike modern times, whether there is chaos or not, whether there is war or not (and the frequency of war and chaos is far less than in ancient China), all countries use a lot of taxpayers' money to support a large number of living soldiers and dead weapons! Moreover, the value of the soldiers' swords, guns, spears and arrows weapons is not worth the weight of modern weapons! And most of these weapons are provided by the government soldiers, and do not need to be spent by the state treasury. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Depending on the number of soldiers, the local government is divided into upper, middle, and lower ranks: 1,200 are in the upper class, 10,000 are in the middle class, and 800 are in the lower class.

The head of the Zhichong Mansion is one of the Commanders of Zhichong, and one of the Captains of Guoyi on the left and right is the deputy. Each military government has jurisdiction over 4~6 regiments, with 200 people per regiment (sometimes 300 people as a regiment), and the leader of the regiment is called the captain; Each regiment has jurisdiction over 2 brigades, each brigade has 100 people, and the leader of the brigade is called the brigade commander; Each brigade has 2 teams, each team has 50 people, and the leader of the team is called the team; Each team consists of 5 fires, 10 people per fire, led by the fire chief.

The weapons and equipment used by the government soldiers (such as horse harnesses, shovels, axes, chisels, pliers, saws, etc.) and the food required for the journey must be provided by themselves; Horses, armor, and long weapons were supplied by the government.

These soldiers, collectively known as the guards, were divided into various arms according to their protrusion: those who were good at riding and archery were cavalry, and the rest were infantry, foot archers, spearmen, crossbowmen, etc.

The military governments in various localities are under dual leadership, and are not only under the management of the local governors' offices, provincial governments, and metropolitan governors' offices, but also under the control of the central Ministry of Health and Soldiers.

The central government commanded the soldiers of the whole country by 12 of the 16 guards and 6 of the 10 rates of the prince's east palace.

Among them, the left and right guards, the left and right guards, the left and right waiting guards, the left and right leading guards, the left and right guards, and the left and right Xiao Wei each lead the leading houses from 40 to 60, the left and right guards all lead 60 houses, and the other guards lead 40~50 houses, and the military numbers are Xiao Cai, Xiong Qu, Leopard Ride, Yulin, Shooting, and Second Fly; The left and right prison guards, the left and right thousand cow guards do not command the government soldiers. Each guard has one general and two generals.

The prince's left and right guard rates, the prince's left and right Si Yu rate, the prince's left and right clearing rate, and the Zhuwei rate each led the military government from 3 to 5; The left and right prison gates lead the government, and the prince leads the government and does not unify the government soldiers; The rate of each rate is set and the deputy rate is the chief and deputy officer.

The central government office of the Tang Dynasty was located in the south of the palace city, and was collectively referred to as the Nanya or Nansi. The 12 Wei Mansion belongs to the Nanya, so the soldiers of the 12 Wei Mansion who are transferred from the 12 Wei Mansion in turn to guard the capital are called the Nan Ya forbidden soldiers.

Correspondingly, the forbidden soldiers who were formed separately and stationed at the north gate of the palace were managed by the eunuchs of the emperor's cronies in the Beiya or Beisi (mainly eunuchs), so they were called the forbidden soldiers of the Beiya. Because of the heavy responsibility of defending the emperor, the royal and the imperial city, the Beiya forbidden soldiers have become the emperor, the prince's personal soldiers, the Imperial Forest Army, also known as the "Yulin Army", so the treatment is good! The Beiya forbidden soldiers have different numbers in different periods, and the common ones in the early Tang Dynasty are the left and right Yulinwei, the left and right dragon guards, and the left and right Shenwuwei six armies.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were two types of soldiers: the inner government and the outer government. The inner government is the "three guards and five mansions": the first house of the guard, the second house of the guard, and the second house of the Yiwei; The Inner House Guards were in charge of the palace guards. The outer provinces are the various folding houses. At that time, there were three criteria for the selection of government soldiers: wealth, material strength (physical strength), and Dingkou, and with wealth as the head, the concept of hierarchy was very strict! During the years of Wude and Zhenguan, only the children of high-ranking cadres could enlist in the Sanwei and Wufu: the sons of high-ranking officials of the second and third grades entered the personal guard; The grandson of the third-rank high-ranking official and the son of the fourth-rank high-ranking official entered the Xunwei; The grandson of the fourth-rank high-ranking official, the fifth-rank high-ranking official and the son of the Shangzhuguo entered Yiwei. Those officials below the sixth rank and the children of good families can only be foreign soldiers with poor treatment!
