Chapter 1304 - Reform and Reform Paste III
Veterans of the forbidden army are of course easy to dismiss, but what about officers?
The forbidden army has not recruited new recruits for many years, so the camp is full of elderly people. However, there was a steady stream of officers coming in, and the government offices at all levels in the army were also maintained, as if there were really soldiers with them.
There are always tens of thousands of these officers and junior military ministers who have no official status, and they consume a lot of wealth every year, but they can't do anything. It's like raising tens of thousands of gold-swallowing beasts!
If they are not dismissed, only the soldiers are dispersed, and there will not be much money saved at all.
However, to dismiss the officers, it will touch a huge interest group. Don't think that this officer interest group with few soldiers is easy to bully, they and the officers of the New Army are actually one. Most of them come from various generals' families, and if they are dismissed, it will be equivalent to moving the cheese of the officers of the new army.
Now the officers of the New Army are already a little unruly, if they are provoked again, there will be trouble, but the troubled times of the five dynasties of Tang Ji will come again.
"When Zhou Xiangmi Youren met with me yesterday, he said that he hoped that the two countries of Song and Zhou would seal Nanyang!" Ji Yi said slowly, "Practice the law of Xia Jun and the people in Nanyang." The children of the Heavenly Family and the Martial Family are the kings of the countries of the South Seas. Since there is a king, there must be a minister, so it is better to select a young, strong and ambitious person among the officers of the forbidden army as the prime minister of the kings, and assist the kings to open up the territory in the South Seas. β
Will this work?
The officials in the government hall looked at each other, and they were all frowning.
He Zhizhong said: "Going to Lingnan to be an official is regarded as a dangerous road, Nanyang is still in the south of Lingnan, it is a place of miasma, who is willing to go there to be an official?" β
Ji Yi smiled and said in his heart: Isn't the true appearance gone?
He said: "The princes and ministers do not mean that they are about to go to Nanyang to serve as officials, you can let them go to the kings' palaces to serve first."
A palace arranges 200 officials, and if there are 20 palaces, won't 4,000 officials be arranged?
In addition, didn't the official family set up the Nanjing Zongzi Army? It can also go further and set up a left-behind department in Xiangyang Prefecture, Nanjing. is also accompanied by the fictitious six ministries and nine secretaries, all of whom are called to be laid off military attachΓ©s and ministers. At least 3,000 officials can be placed...... Won't 7,000 officials have a place to go? The rest of the officials can always arrange it if they think of a way. β
"But with this arrangement, the number of officials has not decreased, and the expenses have not been reduced much!" He Zhizhong just shook his head, "If you want to seal the kingdoms in Nanyang, you will have to increase the expenses of each royal palace, and you will have to use troops in the future...... Remember, now is not as good as money before the change. β
"You have to spend the money you have to spend!" Ji recalled, "Today, we will first discuss the restructuring of the new army, the establishment of the king's palace, and the sealing of Nanyang. The question of money will be discussed later. β
There are really a lot of places to spend money!
In addition to what Ji Yi and He Zhizhong said, there are two big weddings to do. One is the marriage of Princess Qingde, and the other is the wife of the king of Donghae County. With Zhao Ji's extravagant personality, how can the two weddings cost tens of millions, right?
In addition, the construction of Xuzhou City, which Pan Xiao'an is responsible for, is also a project that costs a lot of money. Spread to this year and next year, no matter how many millions.
If the military reform and the sealing of Nanyang are to be launched at the same time, the deficit of the Great Song Dynasty this year and next year may be unbelievably large.
He Zhizhong shook his head, "It's been almost 20 years since the military system reform was repeated!" There's nothing to talk about. It is nothing more than delegating power to battalion officers and educating officers with schools...... There is no objection to this. β
He Zhizhong has no objections, and others naturally have no objections. Even if this matter is passed by the assembly, it is only to determine the general direction, and whether there is money to implement it will have to be discussed later.
"As for the Great Seal Nanyang ......" He Zhizhong frowned, "How to divide the seal?" Is it really a priority? Isn't it a bit reckless? β
Ji Yi shook his head, "This is what Mi Yuanhui proposed...... If we don't seal it, Zhou Guo will go to divide it. At that time, the south of the Great Song Dynasty will all be surnamed Wu! β
Alas, I have to follow ah!
Instead of you colonize, I should colonize!
There has to be competition for such a thing as colonial aggression!
Otherwise, how could the Europeans rob half the world?
The vast continents of Asia, Africa and Latin America are placed there, and if you Spain does not invade, he Portugal will attack! If you don't want France, he's not welcome...... So don't let anyone go, there is no "country that does not levy", you don't levy others! Even if you really don't want to conquer, you have to conquer a few colonies in order to fight for your breath, otherwise how can you be embarrassed to say that you are a great power?
Now Da Song is in the same trouble. Those surnamed Zhao don't engage in colonial aggression, and those surnamed Wu don't eat them all. At that time, the Great Song Dynasty will fall into the siege of Wu Zhou, but it will be too dangerous!
Therefore, the two governments quickly reached an agreement on whether to engage in colonial expansion into the vast Nanyang region - that is a must!
β¦β¦
Yuqing Daode Palace.
Zhao Ji's cultivation was once again interrupted by annoying mundane affairs.
This time, the results of the meeting jointly performed by He Zhizhong, Ji Yi, and Zhang Shuye were particularly annoying.
First, the new army must be trained, and it must be trained in a bold way! At least 320 battalions have been trained in the country, all of which have to be recruited, and their equipment must be on par with the Republican Army of the Zhou State.
The second is to build a feudal country in the South and Western Oceans, at least 20 countries!
Third, it is necessary to pilot the suppression of mergers and acquisitions and the equalization of land in China......
This is really the three fires of the new official, which burned Zhao Ji unstable.
"This, this, this ......" Zhao Ji looked melancholy, "320 battalions are recruited, 20 feudal countries are to be recruited, and annexation and land are all ...... How much does it cost? Ji Qing, does the imperial court have so much money? β
yes, is there so much money?
It's not Zhao Ji who wants to ask, He Zhizhong and Zhang Shuye also want to ask. Not to mention whether it costs money to suppress annexation and equalize land, even if there are 320 battalions and 20 feudal states, the amount of money that has to be spent is unimaginable!
"Back to Your Majesty," Ji Yi was not in a hurry, "The imperial court doesn't have that much money now, but there will definitely be a way to get it in the future." β
"What's the solution?" Zhao Ji asked with interest.
"I don't know now." Ji Yi replied.
Don't know now? I don't know what kind of young master you should be? Zhao Ji rolled his eyelids, and he had an urge to send Ji Yi back to Jiaozhi Country.
"But someone knows." Ji Yi said again.
Zhao Ji hurriedly asked, "Who knows?" β
"Wu Haogu, the head of the Zhou State, knows." Ji Yi said lightly, "The military expenditure of the Zhou State is indeed less economical than that of our dynasty, but its national income is only one-seventh or eight-eighth of that of our dynasty." With this bit of wealth, how can the Zhou State build a feudal state in Nanyang? β
"Wu Haogu must have a way!" Zhao Ji said calmly, "But what should I do?" β
"Copy!" Ji Yi's answer was very simple.
"Copy?"
"If there is any way for Wu Haogu, I will copy it."
Ji Da said with a smile: "Those who can make a fuss know that they want to steal Chen Yan in other people's old texts and copy from east to west." In fact, the same is true for changing the law to become stronger, and the law of other countries can be used as a teacher. Nowadays, the new army, new schools, banks, commercial markets, etc., of our dynasty, have many references from the Zhou State.
It is the retro school that claims to 'suppress mergers and acquisitions, and line Juntian' is also partly taught by the Zhou State. Therefore, when the Zhou State finds out the financial route of feudal Nanyang, the ministers will copy it as appropriate! β
Pretty reasonable...... It's just that I don't know if Ji Yi's Tanhua was copied?
Zhao Ji thought about it carefully, and actually nodded and said: "Then I will wait for the Emperor to play, first decide the big policy, and then find a way to copy it...... Oh, let's go in search of wealth.
But how should this new army be trained? How to seal Nanyang? Can the two governments have detailed rules? β
"There are no details yet." Ji recalled, "Your Majesty, since the quasi-ministers and others have played, it is not too late for the ministers to slowly formulate the detailed rules." β
Is it to slowly make the rules or to plagiarize slowly? Zhao Ji thought to himself.
Ji Yi went on to say: "The feudal and military training matters are very important, and we should not act rashly. It should be thought over and over again. Therefore, the minister suggested that the government affairs hall should be set up to select new talents who are good at government affairs, military affairs, and finance, and formulate detailed rules and regulations on a full-time basis.
Moreover, feudal Nanyang is not a matter of my Great Song Dynasty, and I must also discuss the division of territory with the Zhou State.
As for curbing mergers and implementing the Junta Law, a special Junta Administration should be set up and implemented on a trial basis in Gyeonggi Road. β
Not to mention, the discipline and treachery are quite disciplined!
Adulterers are usually very capable, otherwise they can only be rape, not be a minister.
Ji Yi is now the battle phase of the traitor, so as soon as he makes a move, it is extraordinary. At least he fooled up and down, and they all thought that he had a way, even if there was no way, he would copy a way to come out!
Actually, Ji Yi really has a way. And his methods are not all copying, at least on the issue of colonization in the South Seas, he has a way - he has already led two colonial movements, of course, there are many lessons and lessons, how can there be no way?
And his method is the collusion between officials and businessmen!
Colonial expansion is not something that can be done by bureaucrats alone, even if a feudal monarch is added. There must be businessmen involved and play a huge role, otherwise the efficiency is too low, the cost is too high, and you will wait for the loss!
Of course, there are only businessmen, and no officials are not good.
Without an official background, it is impossible to generate sufficient authority, and it is difficult to establish a strong political power overseas. Without political power, there would be no way to carry out such things as establishing military bases, opening schools, systematically indoctrination and conquest of barbarians.
Therefore, Ji Yi's method is the "Sin Chew model", which establishes a semi-commercial and half-official, autonomous colonial stronghold as the center of the feudal state......
But Ji Yi can't take out this set of methods rashly, otherwise he will be impeached by the imperial historian and embarrassed, so he can only wait for Wu Haogu to copy it first, and copy it into the international advanced experience, and Ji Yi will introduce it again, and others will have nothing to say.
And this kind of development path of copying and borrowing from each other is the benefit of the model of the nations, if there is only one unified country, there is no copying!
When the Great Zhou State of Wuhao Gu formulated the rules for dividing the Nanyang vassal states, of course, it also had to find out the lessons and lessons of the Nanyang Protectorate, the Jiaozhi State, and Su Shi's pioneering activities on the island of Taiwan......
