Chapter 465: Separation of Military and Political Affairs
Lu Shi was already shocked by the methods that Wu Tao and Mr. Li had explored and implemented.
I really didn't expect that there are these super-era talents in the cottage, where is this general thing, but it has come to the forefront of the times, I can't help but admire, standing in the middle of the ground and saying loudly: "This is to give us the base to give us the future, open up a broad road, and deserve a heavy reward." ”
This remark made Mr. Li embarrassed, and said respectfully: "The military advisor has praised it falsely, this is all the support of Wu Tao and Chen Che brothers, and the most important thing is the support of the third uncle, and now it needs the approval of King Chuang." There was a watery smile in his eyes.
Lu Shihaha smiled and said, "How can you not approve such a thing that is beneficial to the base area?" Not only to approve, but also to promote your experience in the whole base, in fact, all our current policies are just crossing the river by feeling the stones, there is no sages to learn from, only the courage to create among us, it may be right or wrong, right, we will promote, wrong, we correct. ”
All the people in the cave were impressed by Lu Shi's judgment, yes, what everyone is doing is an unprecedented cause, and they are really like King Chuang's words, crossing the river by touching the stones, which is very appropriate, but when touching the stones, there is King Chuang in front, so what are you afraid of?
Compared with the blind obedience of others, Zheng Hao stood up and applauded. For him, every path of inquiry is an attempt.
In fact, in this world, like Zheng Hao, it really makes Lu Shi feel a lot of heart, because some people are deviant because they are unwilling to be lonely and want to make a difference, such as Zheng Hao. A person like him, in the dreary officialdom and life, does make a person like him who is not willing to be lonely, want to make a desperate gamble when he thinks he needs to seize the opportunity the most.
Zheng Hao agreed with Mr. Li's approach, which immediately caused a discussion in the cave, of course, most of the caves did not understand the economy, but knew that the harvest of silver money, commercial taxes not only did not affect agriculture, but stimulated the development of agriculture, which was not expected by everyone except Lu Shi, including Chen Ce and the third uncle, but the facts were clearly placed there, and people had to admit it.
"What else do you do? Let's talk about it together. Lu Shi stood still and asked solemnly.
Seeing the solemnity of King Chuang's question, Wu Tao stood up and brought the loan matter together with the methods agreed upon by everyone. On the one hand, it is the method of bank mortgage loans in later generations, but on the other hand, it is combined with the reality of people's simplicity and honesty now, and it is really almost seamless.
Chen Ce is even more from the essence of a literati, believing in the principle of human nature and goodness, and applauds such a method.
So, everyone began to discuss it together, but it was only revised in the details, and finally Lu Shi asked Chen Ce and Guo Tianxing (of course, it was also in vain) for their opinions, and decided on this matter.
Zheng Hao was the first to apply for a fund of 20,000 yuan from the third uncle, but don't blame Zheng Hao, it is true that Ganquan did not seize a penny, played a few small villages, and did not get much, and they were all invested in the construction of Zhiluogou, and they did need financial support in the cottage.
The third uncle was already wealthy at this time, and looked at Lu Shi, who smiled and said, "This matter is decided by the godfather, but don't ask me." ”
With Lu Shi's consent, the third uncle smiled and said to Zheng Hao: "King Chuang has approved, we will do so, give you a fund of 50,000 yuan, and send skilled masters from the old camp to help you guide the people of Zhiluogou to build windmills, terraces, and small agricultural machinery." ”
Zheng Hao was overjoyed, stood up and thanked the third uncle.
The third uncle waved his hand and said: "Don't be too happy too early, my 50,000 silver, by the end of next year, I will recover 55,000, if you can't recover these, it will be deducted from your food." ”
Zheng Hao patted his chest and said, "Third Uncle should rest assured, he will not only give you 55,000 silver today next year, but also give you an iron-clad straight Luogou." ”
Guo Tianxing shouted: "Okay, brothers, write down this, and at that time, you will be rewarded according to the base, of course, it is still subject to the acceptance of King Chuang." There was laughter in the cave.
Lu Shi stopped everyone and laughed: "Don't go off-topic, Mr. Zheng's matter will be told to listen to us, or Luochuan matter." Luochuan civil affairs has reached the benchmark of our learning, which I might as well be, but the military is to be strengthened, after all, this is the granary, the population base, is our top priority, but we have limited manpower, but we can't take care of it for a while, but what can we do? "Lu Shi is really depressed.
The power of the base areas is growing rapidly, but it is obvious that the strength cannot meet the needs of growth, especially what Lu Shi has always thought about is that the military strength cannot exceed the capacity of the base areas, plunder can no longer become the most important means of breaking into the army, and production is the last word for future development.
"My bottom line is that within our sphere of influence, every twenty people feed a full-time soldier, which is within our maximum capacity, and any more will affect the construction of our base area."
All the people nodded their heads, whether they understood or not, they all knew that the base area was not in other poles, and they all knew the ambition of King Chuang, an army that the people could not afford, only maintained by plunder, that was a rootless army, this territory expansion did have worries, and rest and recuperation was the king's way.
Wu Tao laughed at this time and said, "Don't be in a hurry, listen to me and tell me about Mr. Li's method?" ”
Lu Shi was very interested at that time, because Wu Tao and others gave him too many surprises and broadened his horizons.
At the moment, he said urgently: "Hurry up." ”
Wu Tao then brought Mr. Li's method of co-ordination of the surrounding cottages to 1510, and finally said to Lu Shi: "Now, we are in Luochuan alone, there are four military-level cottages and one team-level cottage, these cottages are no longer eating and drinking us for nothing, but they have become our peripheral armed forces with sincerity and convincing, as long as we have the construction methods of the base areas and the allocation of some livestock seeds. Please ask the third uncle and King Chuang for approval. ”
How can you disagree with such a good thing? Lu Shi clapped his hands and said: "It is so beneficial to the base area, it should be agreed, since this is the case, then they will be incorporated into the garrison of the base area and join the Geng Kui brothers, and at the same time, the cattle, sheep and rabbits grazing in the old camp have already seen results, and some can be allocated." Then he said with a haha: "It's just that everyone's opportunity to fight the tooth sacrifice will be delayed for a while, and everyone may be patient?" ”
Everyone laughed and agreed. Only Chunlan pursed her mouth, everyone knew in their hearts that girls cherish small animals, and they will separate the cattle and sheep and rabbits, of course they are unhappy, Wu Tao is funny but also comforting: "Captain Chunlan, don't be sad, how about doubling your reward at the beginning of spring?" ”
With such a promise, Chunlan showed her face
Lu Shi concluded: "Luochuan is not only the granary of Shaanxi, but also has the prospect of prosperity under the governance of Wu Tao and Mr. Li, and the matter is not bothering the two masters, I propose that the land of Luochuan be handed over to the Wu Tao brothers to be fully managed, and it is not appropriate to call it a county order, after all, there is a head of the imperial court in that courtyard, so how about calling it a governor?" ”
Everyone was envious and applauded.
This is the first party member in the base area to really delegate power and come out, which is the infinite trust of King Chuang and his brothers in Wu Tao.
Chen Ce's face was gloomy, Zhao Xing was anxious to stand up, Mr. Li straightened his body nervously, and Wu Tao jumped up in fright, shaking his hand again and again.
Wu Tao shouted, others were stunned, Wu Tao didn't know how to lift, only Mr. Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't pay attention to the fact that a little ink on Chen Che's record pen was dyed black in the trembling of his hand, and it was too late to record King Chuang's words.
Chen Ce also secretly breathed a sigh of relief during this time, slowly relaxed his tense body, Zhao Xing glanced at Chen Che, then put his hands in his sleeves again, and looked at everyone with a harmless smile.
Lu Shi asked Wu Tao with a stunned face: "Brother Wu Tao, why can't I think so?" ”
Wu Tao smiled bitterly, and solemnly gave the king and the commander of the general Shi salute: "The trust of the brothers, where does not make me grateful, but the younger brother is indeed limited in ability, and after studying with King Chuang for a while, he also has a lot of experience in military affairs, but in civil affairs is not as much as Mr. Li, for the long-term plan of the base, I dare not shirk the management of the next two military affairs, but I have no experience in civil affairs, if King Chuang does not hand over the Luochuan army and people to me, then it will not harm me?" Once I can't do it, won't it hurt the base area? Then I can only ask to go back to the old camp to be the secretary of the king, which is better than being embarrassed. ”
Lu Shi suddenly realized that although Wu Tao said it implicitly, it revealed a lot of information.
As the power of the base areas continues to increase, then according to this precedent, governors must be constantly dispatched, and then people who are not subject to the collective control of the headquarters will gradually appear in various places, and ambition is really impossible to prevent. At that time, he will not be able to end it.
Understanding the key during this period, Lu Shi smiled without a trace and said: "Brother Wu Tao is right, one person is too tired and hard to take care of too much, but I can't sympathize with my brothers." ”
Hearing this, Wu Tao was relieved and seemed to collapse.
"Okay, then let's do it, Wu Tao is still the military division of the Chuang Army, but he is also the governor of Luochuan, and he is specifically responsible for the military of Luochuan, and no longer supervises civil affairs."
Wu Tao stood up solemnly and said, "King Xie Chuang is compassionate. Brother, I will bow down and die as hard as I can. ”
Guo Tianxing laughed and said: "It's still the same sentence, they are all their own brothers, don't say dead words, next time, let's beat twenty lashes first." ”
Wu Tao's eyes were hot, and he only bowed and was silent.
Mr. Li hurriedly stepped forward and said: "A certain person is a little clever, but he doesn't know anything about military affairs, but civil affairs is my strength. ”
Lu Shi smiled and nodded, Mr. Luochuan and Brother Wu Tao, I firmly believe in your guarantee.
