Chapter 653: Foresight
"Exemption from Endowment and Grace Order" is a big killer weapon that Lu Yun and Lu Xin have repeatedly discussed. The root of this is that the gate valve gives up part of the interests of the territory in exchange for the maximum cohesion of the people's hearts and the stimulation of the combat effectiveness of the tribe.
At the beginning, as soon as Lu Xin proposed the plan of "Exemption from Grace Order", it was met with opposition. The top and bottom of the valve believe that this will cause the income of the valve to drop sharply and affect the interests of the children of the land valve. However, Lu Xin took advantage of the three fires of the new official to promulgate the decree with the support of the deacons and the Council of Elders.
And in order to reduce the resistance, he also played a slippery head. Prior to the promulgation of the Decree of Exemption from Grace, it was announced that the decree would be applied only to the army of the land lords. Because at the beginning of the year, the army of the Lu lord was only about 20,000 people, and in the eyes of the clansmen, it was not very influential, so the opposition was finally suppressed.
But the people in Beijing never expected that the power of the "Waiver of Grace Order" was so terrifying, and as soon as it was released, the people of Huguang enthusiastically joined the army. In just half a year, Lu Valve's army in Huguang expanded from 10,000 to 80,000. This is still because the original foundation of the land lord army is too thin, and there is a serious shortage of qualified officers and skilled veterans, and expanding to 80,000 in a short period of time is already the limit, and any more will only backfire and affect combat effectiveness.
Therefore, there are the same number of young people who cannot join the army, and one by one they are mournful and heartbroken, so they can only obey the arrangements of the valve to work in mines, armor and blacksmith shops.
Now, Lu Xin is going to expand the "Waiver of Grace Order" to these people, can you imagine how much motivation they will be inspired?
But in this way, Huguang's income from the field will be cut off......
Although the fiefdom of the land valve is the largest of all the valves, the lake is vast and sparsely populated, and the population is only less than 300,000 households. If 80,000 troops and more than 100,000 craftsmen were exempt from tax and favor, almost every household in the entire fiefdom would no longer have to pay taxes and serve, and Lu Valve would have to pay a large amount of rewards upside down.
If Lu Xin had directly proposed this plan, it is estimated that even Lu Xiu and others would not support him.
But the current situation is different, and the land valve has reached the point of life and death. Everyone knows that if they don't become strong as soon as possible, they will inevitably be wiped out and swallowed up by others in the upcoming world chaos. Therefore, the expansion of armaments at any cost has become a plan acceptable to all.
Sure enough, there was no doubt that a group of high-level Lu Valve's proposals would be Lu Xin's proposal, and it was a foregone conclusion that the "Decree of Exemption and Grace" would benefit the entire Huguang.
Lu Xin and the senior management carefully deliberated the details of the promulgation, and the meeting did not end until the second half of the night.
"After you go back, you have to take advantage of the recent situation to break open and crush the children of my land lord, and say that the strong man broke his wrist in an extraordinary period for the survival of my land valve clan." In the end, Lu Xin still told the high-level officials uneasily: "Let them not just stare at their own little money and monthly rations, if my Lu valve falls, everyone will be finished together." ”
"Rest assured!" Lu Yi patted his chest with a smile and said, "Our son of Lu Valve's son has been reading sage books since he was a child, can he not even understand this truth?" I don't believe that after hearing about the deeds of the people of Huguang, they can still be their arrogant people with peace of mind? ”
"Hehe, yes, the lord of the valve, the old and young masters of our land valve are also bloody," Lu Jian also smiled and said: "Just taking advantage of the chaos of the Xiahou valve, we also asked all the parties to set up a guard team and step up the training, which will be of great use in the future." ”
"Yes." Lu Xin is actually very aware of the behavior of the disciples of the gate valve, but this kind of words must not come out of his mouth. On the contrary, he also encouraged the Great Elder: "Uncle, this matter will bother the Elders, let it go." ”
"Okay, let's get rid of this old bone, and we also have to help the valve pull the team up." Lu Xian and the others stood up to cheer up their spirits and held a meeting for most of the night, which was really difficult for these old people.
"Everyone, please go back and rest." Lu Xin smiled and sent everyone out of the Three Fears Hall and said, "Delay a little longer, and the sky will be dawn." ”
"Yes......" Everyone saluted to the lord and said goodbye.
。
Seeing a group of high-level figures disappear into the night, Lu Xincai turned back to Lu Yun and smiled: "You see, how important the means and timing are." ”
"Yes......" Lu Yun nodded thoughtfully, half a year ago, he didn't dare to imagine that this "Waiver of Grace Order", which had dug the foundation of the gate valve, would actually be implemented so smoothly in the land valve.
Yes, he and Lu Xin drafted this "Waiver and Grace Order", the purpose is not only to improve the combat effectiveness of the land lord, they also have more far-reaching and grander plans-
The "Exemption and Grace Order" will reinvent the combat effectiveness of the land valve, so that the land valve will have the strength to compete with the upper three valves in a short period of time - in this way, in order to strengthen their own strength in future wars, some people will definitely follow the reform of the land valve. The first successful side of the reform will be greatly improved, and will continue to force all gate valves to implement similar reforms.
In this way, no matter who takes over the world in the future, it will no longer be possible to maintain the control and oppression of the current gate valve over the people. Once the ruling base on which it depends for survival is lost, the gate valve will naturally gradually die out. Although there will be more big families who will continue to call for wind and rain, they will never return to the current suffocating era of privilege.
In the past, Lu Xin asked Lu Yun what his plans would be after his revenge was successful? This is Lu Yun's answer to Lu Xin.
And Lu Xin has designed the most feasible roadmap for Lu Yun, and has taken the most critical step by taking advantage of the right time, place and people!
"I really hope that Xiahou Valve can give us a little more time," Lu Yun sighed lightly, this was the first time he didn't want Xiahou Ba to break with the Initial Emperor too quickly. "At least wait for the new deal to be implemented in Huguang and let our combat effectiveness reach a higher level."
Obviously, Xiahouba's unexpected response this time also made Lu Yun seriously reflect, is he a little anxious?
"How can everything be as it should be?" Lu Xin put his hand on Lu Yun's shoulder, looked up at the bright starry sky and said, "For those treacherous and cunning guys, we can't do everything. Adaptability is also important. ”
"Hmm." Lu Yun nodded and said: "Thinking about it this way, it's okay if Huangfu Yu didn't do it yesterday, we can prepare a little more fully, and we have a greater certainty in the future." ”
"Yes." Lu Xin looked at Lu Yun deeply, and said seriously: "You are not alone, how much power is standing behind you now?" How many people have entrusted their lives to you? Don't just think about taking risks and revenge, you must always think about the big picture. ”
"Hmm." Lu Yun nodded, and suddenly coughed a little embarrassedly: "Father, when will you have time to go to the Money Villa?" ”
"Uh......" Lu Xin was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed and said, "Of course." I've been so busy lately that I've forgotten about it, isn't it almost the end of the day? ”
"It's going to be a baby next month." Lu Yun turned his head away and avoided Lu Xin's gaze in shame.
