Chapter 858: 800,000 Combined Troops
The commercial tax is about to catch up with the acre tax...... That's a big good thing.
This means...... More and more people, their standard of living has improved too much; Otherwise, they will have no spare money to spend.
The prosperity of commerce means the prosperity of "money (capital, finance)"; It also means prosperity in all walks of life; Not only did the people have enough to eat, but they also had the ability to spend money.
If this development continues, after thirty or fifty years, will it affect the emergence of capital and budding?
"Let's get the people fed first...... Let them eat well and have the ability to spend at the same time.
It's a long process, and we have to be patient, persevering, and persevering! ”
Looking around at the civil and military forces, Li Mu's expression was solemn, and his tone was even more solemn, "No matter what time it is...... All the things in the world are bigger than the problem of the people eating!
Let's always keep it in mind! ”
"The lord is wise!"
All the civil and military officers replied in unison.
Li Yan, Wu Yi, and Ling Bao, these new generals, respect their own lords more and more in their hearts......
'No wonder, the Liangzhou army can be invincible!
The family is strong and strong, and the people are called like livestock!
On the other hand, the lord of his own family loves the people like a son, and takes the people as the foundation, and the family, the powerful and the princes under him...... How to compete with the Liangzhou army?
As long as there is a leader, who will not follow the people who have been oppressed for a long time? ’
"Kong Ming!
What is the rule of the rulers in various places? ”
Moving his gaze to Zhuge Liang, Li Mu's expression became solemn, "Do the non-governmental and official supervision agencies in various places play their role?" ”
"The civil supervision agency set up by the lord is really useful!"
The number of officials who committed the crime was already in Zhuge Liang's mind, and Kong Ming told it eloquently, "Within a year......
beheaded officials, nine;
dismissed officials, 34;
Seventy-three officials were demoted.
Among them, more than half of the criminal officials were reported by the private supervision organs.
Compared to the official watchdogs, those officials with bad intentions ...... It is even more afraid of non-governmental monitoring institutions. ”
The Liangzhou army was full of civil and military forces, and their hearts were shocked!
At the beginning, when their own owners set up a private supervision agency, they did not have such great expectations.
"At any time, the phenomenon of officials protecting each other will not be eliminated! It is still necessary to reuse the private supervision agency!
Only by letting more and more people ...... Officials who participate in the report and are corrupt can be a little less! ”
Looking around at the civil and military forces, Li Mu said in a deep voice with a murderous face: "The problem of governing officials cannot be relaxed at any time!"
Whether our policy of benefiting the people can be conveyed to the people depends on the relationship between the people and the decision-makers... These are the officials!
But any official who knows the law and violates the law, no matter how big his background is, no matter how much credit he has...... No mercy, no mercy!
Kill what should be killed, avoid what should be spared, and surrender what should be lowered!
Fa and Zhang's generation is their end! ”
"Wait, obey the orders of the lord's army!
We will live up to the trust of the Lord! ”
The Liangzhou army was civil and military, and their expressions were full of solemn voices.
"Fa and Zhang's generation, as well as those powerful families, for themselves, for their children and grandchildren...... Embezzled and plundered so much property.
In the end?
It's not like he's gone to extinction! ”
Li Mu's eyes were slightly closed, looking around at the civil and military forces, his body was already murderous, "Their corruption and plundering are not for their children and grandchildren!"
This is in ...... Harm their children and grandchildren!
The whole clan was wiped out, and even the basic family incense could not be passed on, what did they get?
We also have to educate our children and grandchildren, don't do it, be a fool like Zhang, or a damn person!
Don't let the people's butcher's knives get to our necks! ”
It is impossible to eradicate corruption at any time, and we can only do our best to curb and reduce corruption.
"The lord is wise!"
The Liangzhou army was civil and military, and their hearts were solemn, and they said in unison.
"This year's imperial examination...... The result? ”
Taking a sip of tea, Li Mu looked at Zhuge Liang expectantly.
"My lord!
The number of participants was more than four times that of last year, with a total of 4,382 people. ”
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "The children of ordinary people still account for the vast majority.
After the township examination and the general examination, a total of 268 people were admitted, and all of them were assigned to work in various counties. ”
The imperial examination under the rule of the Liangzhou Army, for the time being, only has two levels: the township examination and the meeting examination, and the palace examination has not yet been applied.
"That's good!
As long as more and more students ...... If you can identify with the imperial examination, more people will be willing to read and hyphenate.
In this way, the talents under the rule of the Liangzhou Army will be endless! ”
Li Mu nodded with a look of joy on his face, and said loudly: "These students are just officials, they need to be exercised, and they also need to be inspected!"
It would be wise to send them to the counties below!
The situation in which the family is strong and controls education and becomes an official will eventually be gone forever! ”
The Liangzhou army is civil and military, nodding and saying good!
"Second brother, Kong Ming, Yuan Zhi......"
Li Mu looked around at Zhao Yun, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, and Jiang Wan, and asked, "Have you seen the household registers and field registers of Jing, Yi, and Jiaozhou?"
Recruit troops from it, how much can you recruit? ”
Zhao Yun, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, and Jiang Wan nodded in unison.
"My lord!
In the three prefectures of Jing, Yi and Jiao, there are more than 9.9 million people. ”
Zhuge Liang groaned, and then, he said loudly with a solemn face: "The recruitment of 500,000 troops from it will not affect the normal production of the people."
Bright thought ...... To exterminate the princes of the Kwantung region, it is only necessary to recruit more troops...... More than 300,000. ”
Zhong Wenwu thought about it.
"Big brother!
At present, there are 400,000 people in the eight major armies of our army, 50,000 in the water division, and 10,000 in the Wuxi barbarian army! ”
Zhao Yun seemed to have made up his mind, and said loudly: "Recruit more than 300,000 soldiers, a total of 800,000 people......
It will definitely be able to wipe out the princes of Kanto in one fell swoop! ”
Pang Tong, Xu Shu, Xu Huang, and Zhang He said in unison: "I'll wait for what Zilong and Kong Ming said!"
"I'll wait, second!"
The Liangzhou army was civil and military, thought about it, and said in unison.
"That's exactly what I wanted!"
Li Mu looked around at the civil and military circles, nodded very approvingly, and then, said loudly with a solemn face: "With 800,000 people, both offensive and defensive, and attacking in multiple ways, we will definitely be able to level the Kwantung princes in one fell swoop!"
Sweep away the wolf smoke of the troubled times as soon as possible, calm down as soon as possible, and return the people to a bright future! ”
In fact, with the current 460,000 soldiers and horses, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Gongsun Zan in Kanto can also be pacified.
However, if there were 800,000 people, it would be smoother and faster to pacify the princes of the Kanto region.
The sooner you settle down...... The less the people suffered; Only a unified country can concentrate all kinds of resources more effectively and develop better.
The great unification of the dynasty is not only Li Mu's long-cherished wish, but also his lifelong pursuit!
