Chapter 603: The Dispute Between Civil and Military Affairs

"Li Aiqing has talked about the recruit plan in detail!" Li Shimin said with great interest, of course, what he is most interested in is that everyone is loyal to the monarch and patriotic, so why worry about the world!

The Manchu courtiers also listened attentively when they heard this, and everyone knew that if Li Jing's idea was realized, it would be a earth-shaking change for the military.

"When the last general returned to Chang'an City, the old man once had a deep conversation with Merton, and found that the world has many misunderstandings about soldiers, and there are rumors among the people that good men are not soldiers! Most of the reactions of ordinary people to soldiers are dirty and messy, and this situation has been there since ancient times, until His Majesty used the army to fight drought and provide disaster relief, and it did not improve slightly. Li Jing said.

Li Shimin nodded.

"However, even so, many soldiers still can't get wives, and I believe that most of the officers and soldiers in the army are like this!" Li Jingdao, after he talked with Merton, he did not play immediately, but slowly observed the phenomenon in the army, and then played it in the middle of the court in an orderly manner!

Many generals nodded their heads, and this phenomenon was extremely common among soldiers.

"After the last general and Merton discussed, if you want to change the world's expectations of soldiers, the first thing is to change the external image of soldiers!" Li Jing said.

"Li Aiqing, please continue!" Li Shimin said with great interest, originally he just wanted to divert the topic of the civil official's criticism of the Mo family, but now he really listened!

"I don't know if you have ever noticed the difference between a firearms supervisor and an ordinary soldier!" Li Jing suddenly turned his head and asked the other generals.

"Firearms Warden!"

The generals of the DPRK and China either saw the firearms supervisor during the military exercise, or they saw the firearms supervisor officers and soldiers during the western expedition, and they could not help but think of that unique unit in their hearts.

"It seems that the firearms prison officers are cleaner and tidier, even if they walk, they are embarrassed from other soldiers." Cheng Yanjin thought for a while.

He could see that the firearms supervisor was maverick, so he had more contact with the generals in the army.

The other generals also nodded, they had all seen the soldiers of the firearms superintendent, and they were very impressed by the firearms superintendent!

Li Jing nodded and said: "Not only is the firearms supervisor, even the Mojia Village and the children of the Mo family have greatly changed in the eyes of the people of Chang'an City in a short period of time, and most of them rely on cleanliness and tidiness. ”

Under the leadership of Merton, the children of the Mo family abandoned the bad habit of wearing kudzu clothes and being overly frugal in the pre-Qin period, and each person's clothes were neat and clean, and they paid attention to personal appearance, which was completely different from the sloppy people around them.

Everyone found that wherever the Mo family was, it seemed that cleanliness was the first priority.

"So if you want to change the image of the world on soldiers, the first is to be clean and tidy, eradicate head lice, and the end will be an analogy, if Li is infected with the plague and put into the downtown people, I am afraid that the world will avoid me like a snake and scorpion, no one wants to get close to me three feet away, and the plague of head lice, just like the plague in the army, not only makes the soldiers miserable, but also makes the world misunderstand and dislike the soldiers." Li Jing sighed.

As soon as Li Jing's words came out, the generals nodded one after another, after all, they were also deeply touched by the poor hygiene in the army.

"Therefore, the last general believes that it is still a top priority to eradicate the disease of head lice in the military camp and improve the hygiene of the military camp. Li Jing shouted suddenly.

"The ministers think it is imperative to eradicate head lice!" Cheng Yanjin also echoed.

All the generals nodded in agreement, this is related to the image of the military, if according to Li Jing's vision, the image of the military has changed greatly, the generals will naturally benefit.

"What's so hard to eradicate head lice? As long as you wash your hair frequently, pay attention to hygiene, and the disease of head lice will naturally be cured without medicine. Kong Yingda said proudly.

After Kong Yingda finished speaking, even the generals in other armies, even the civilian officials who fought with the army couldn't help twitching the corners of their mouths.

Li Shimin said: "I don't know about the Confucian sacrifice wine, there are many people in the army, countless war horses, mules and horses, and it is almost impossible to eradicate head lice if you want an ordinary method." ”

Kong Yingda noticed the strangeness of everyone, and couldn't help but blush: "Since ordinary methods don't work, why not use the medicine of head lice to treat it!" ”

"Medicine!" Li Jing sneered, "Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of imperial court troops, and the treatment medicine is at least 800 Wen, this is not a small number, and it is not enough to treat people alone, if you don't treat the war horse, it will also be infected again, so the cost will definitely be more than doubled." ”

When Dai Xuan heard this, his face turned pale, and he shook his head again and again: "The Ministry of Civil Affairs has no extra money, this time the disaster in Shandong will definitely have completely hollowed out the imperial court, and there is no extra money at all." ”

A penny is difficult to defeat a hero, and now the DPRK and China are financially tight, but everyone knows that if it weren't for the Mo family's release of a large amount of money from Tuguhun, I am afraid that the rewards of meritorious soldiers will not be issued, and now they have to pay a lot of money, how can Dai Xuan be willing.

"The old man also thinks that cutting hair to eradicate head lice is a rare and good solution, besides, after a year and a half, won't it grow again?" Dai Xuan echoed.

Kong Yingda's face couldn't help but darken, he didn't expect that in addition to the military, the Ministry of Civil Affairs also defected!

Li Jing nodded and said softly to Kong Yingda: "The general didn't let all the soldiers cut their hair, and after the head lice in the army are eradicated, then they can naturally grow their hair again." ”

Kong Yingda and other civilian officials sneered when they heard this, head lice are so rampant in the army, once the soldiers lose their hair, I am afraid that there are not many opportunities to grow their hair again.

"It is the foundation of the country for soldiers to protect their families and defend the country, and filial piety should be more strict in order to be loyal to the country!" Kong Yingda did not let go at all.

Li Jing retorted: "Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have not been perfect, and the general believes that loyalty should be greater than filial piety, and you can't ask the officers and men of the whole army to shed blood and sweat, and there is a head of lice. ”

"That is, besides, the Book of Filial Piety is a classic of your Confucianism, and you can use this to restrain your Confucian children, so you don't have to wait for Confucianism to worry about what the soldiers do." Cheng Yanjin agreed.

"Although the Book of Filial Piety is a Confucian classic, the crown is a tradition in China for thousands of years, how can you let you trample on it!" Kong Yingda said angrily.

Suddenly, the Taiji Hall was divided into two factions, and there was an instant quarrel between the civil and military forces.

"That's it! The matter is put on hold for the time being, and we will discuss it again when Merton comes back! Li Shimin said with a final word.

Suddenly, the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu glared at him hatefully, and then he stopped.

"Can Li Aiqing explain the recruit plan in more detail?" Li Shimin asked.

Li Jing nodded and said, "In addition to being clean and tidy, recruits must also be literate and know how to be loyal to the king!" ”

"Reading and literacy?" Li Shimin couldn't help but grow his mouth!

Li Jing explained: "Of course, there is no need for deep knowledge, this method needs to cooperate with Li Fuzi's compulsory education law, if everyone in the Tang Dynasty is literate and literate, the recruited soldiers will naturally read and write." ”

Li Shimin nodded slowly.

"However, for military generals, it is necessary to be both civil and military, and Weichen checked the roster of generals in the army and found that less than thirty percent of the people who can be familiar with military books are available." Li Jing shook his head and said.

Li Shimin nodded, the typical is Zhonglang General Chang He, Chang He is not familiar with literature and ink, but it is known to the whole dynasty, one day he played Li Shimin on the twist and turn is brilliant, Li Shimin saw at a glance that it was someone else's ghostwriting, only then did he find that a generation of cloth clothes will be Soma Zhou.

Weichen believes that the selection of strong generals in the army, the establishment of military schools following the example of Guozijian, and the selection of famous generals to teach them the art of war, as well as the way of loyalty and patriotism. In this way, the generals in the army are all civil and military, brave and strategic, loyal and patriotic, and my Datang will definitely be invincible. Li Jing said proudly.

"Loyal and patriotic! Invincible! Li Shimin's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Both civil and military!" The civil official's heart sank, and he didn't expect the general's mind to be so big.

Even a group of generals in the army looked at Li Jing in shock, as soon as Li Jing's recruit plan came out, he would definitely be able to bring earth-shaking changes to the military, and he would definitely leave a name in history and become a master of the art of war.
