Chapter 782: The Fourth Year of the First Yuan

In the fourth year of the first Yuan Dynasty, because of the participation of Gongsun Ying, the creator of the [Twenty-class Meritorious Lord System], and the foundation laid by the Qin State before, after the Yue State destroyed the Wu State, the Qin State also completed the reform of the military system immediately.

From the Qin court to the local garrisons, a military system independent of political affairs was established.

First of all, it was determined that the garrisons of all parties in Great Qin were determined, and all the formations below the rank of general, military salaries, grain, grass and baggage and other logistical matters were all handed over to the military department for settlement.

Sure enough, Qin Ting also set up a lieutenant, a left and right lieutenant, and the lieutenant was temporarily fictitious, and the right lieutenant was Qin Gongzi Yingcheng and Zuo Guowei promoted to general Ju Xin.

As for the local generals' system, the method of separating the generals is adopted.

From the bottom up, it is a tithe, with one chief and two captains. Ten tithes is a song, with one centurion and two Wushi chiefs. Five is a one, with a Wu Bairen general and two uncles. The five divisions are a battalion, with a total of 2,500 people, and the highest general in the battalion is the battalion general [裨General], and two captains.

The reason why the pentadecimal system is chosen is because once the number of people has reached a certain level, we must pay attention to the rules, as early as a thousand years ago, the ancestors have figured out the simplest and most effective rules, that is, when marching, they are deliberately divided into front, middle, rear, left and right soldiers and horses, and use them flexibly on the battlefield to prevent emergencies.

The battalion general is the supreme commander in charge of the men and horses of a battalion, and as for the many generals above the battalion general, they have the right to command the troops, but they have isolated the right to lead the troops, and the battalion general controls the drills of the soldiers of the battalion and the garrison arrangements on weekdays.

At present, the soldiers and horses of the Qin State are divided into two categories, one is the garrison army guarding the border fortresses, and the other is the garrison soldiers and horses of the subjective local security.

As for the border defense army, the tuntian system was implemented, that is, the acres of land in the garrison were divided into military fields, which were cultivated by the soldiers when there was no war to ensure their own food consumption.

Because of proper streamlining, the total number of garrisons and local garrisons in the Great Qin Border Pass is only about 200,000.

However, it is facing a more important problem, that is, Gongsun Ying, who assisted the Qin State to complete the reform of the military system, clearly pointed out that if it is not possible to [infuse poison abroad], the people in the interior of Qin will only engage in internal friction similar to private fighting!

In this way, Lin Yuyan also noticed that after hundreds of thousands of veterans who had obtained the military title were discharged and returned to the fields, the improvement of the status of the veterans could fight against the conflicts between the rich landowners in the countryside in the past was also intensifying.

As for the old clans who once controlled the various rights of Lao Qin, Lin Yuyan also abandoned them, and issued an explicit order, that is, the grassroots officials must calculate whether the acres of land of the local old clans exceed the regulations.

Yes, in the fourth year of the first century, Qin Ting had already made the last move against the old clan, that is, he stretched out his hand and inserted it into the clan land that the old clan regarded as forbidden.

The Qin court promulgated the "Mansion Farmland Mu System", as an edict to assist the Qin State to thoroughly promote the 20th rank meritorious lord system, and the mansion field mu system completely abolished the gap between the old Qin people, the Qin people and the Qin people.

Of course, even to this point, there is still no shortage of old clans that are not long-eyed, the old Deng Lao clan of the Tai clan, a clan in Nanjun County, faced with the old soldiers of the Xiangyang Army who responded to the Qin Court and returned to the field, after the issuance of the "Mansion and Field Mu System", they wanted to kill the chickens and monkeys, so that those mud legs in Ye County did not want to touch their own land, but they actually gathered the clansmen and merged with the old pawns who returned to their hometowns, and there were casualties on both sides.

This was indeed in response to the worries that Gongsun Ying had expected before, but after Lin Yuyan learned about this, he also knew that there were many old clans waiting to see how this matter would develop.

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Yuyan ordered that among the two parties ordered by the Prime Minister's Office to arrest them, the veterans who returned to their hometowns and retired from the army were acquitted, while the Tai clan of Ye County on the other side, Qin Ting did not have the slightest softness, and the whole clan was reduced to subordinates, and the clansmen who participated in the fire merger were exiled to the surroundings of Wuling, and the clan leaders and elders who organized the fire merger were all escorted to Wuling as ghost salaries.

The Tai family in Ye County is a branch of the Ji surname of the Hanshui Zhuji, and it is very implicated, and even Deng Hou Ji Xu was implicated and had to come out to intercede.

But Rao is Ji Xu, all of them were cut by the Qin court, so that the Denghou family, which originally had only 1,800 fiefdoms, was sharply reduced to half.

Seeing Qin Ting's tough attitude, many old clans finally didn't dare to make a mistake, and it also made these old clans who relied on the glorious bloodline of their ancestors realize that the nobility of their ancestors is no longer possible in the current Qin State!

Or enlist in the army, fight on the battlefield with perseverance, and make a name for yourself!

Or read and write in the admission room, be familiar with the laws of the Qin State, take the state and national examinations, and get the opportunity to be an official!

In this way, the "Mansion and Farmland System" was finally implemented under the tough attitude of the Qin Court, from the spring to the autumn harvest in the fourth year of the first century, a full half a year, almost the entire Qin Court can operate The small officials are involved in the last and most detailed step of the reform.

The refinement and restructuring of the 20-class meritorious lord system with the "Mansion Mansions and Acres System" as an auxiliary is also in the final step, which is different from Lao Qin in many ways, no matter how high the meritorious knighthood obtained during his lifetime, only the last title of [Gongshi] is hereditary to descendants.

The title obtained will also be converted into the corresponding gold and silver money and grain after his death, and distributed to his widow or children as a testament.

This means that in the future, the most important choice for the class of the people of Qin is their own talent and acquired efforts, and these innate advantages are naturally inevitable, but after all, they cannot determine the general situation.

In the fourth winter of the first year of the first century, everything was closed, and the most turbulent year of change in the Qin State after the first year of the first year of the first year of the Qin Dynasty finally came to an end.

In the Central Plains of this year, after the Yue State swallowed the Wu State again, the general army of 200,000 soldiers, out of Meili, and the Chu State fought for the ditch, the Chu State knew the intention of the Yue State, and also negotiated peace with the Yue State, drew the ditch and ruled, and agreed to fight together.

The Qi State that has experienced a long period of peace has long forgotten the cruelty of war, the Yue people are ferocious and not afraid of death, the cowardly Qi people are also afraid, the King of Qi is helpless, and it is the Yan State in the north that has been supported by the Qin State, and the national strength has risen sharply.

Qi had no choice but to return more than 20 cities south of Jicheng in Yan State, Rao is so, there are still nearly 100 cities in the homeland of Yan State that are still in the hands of Qi people.

This is the case for the Qi State, and the same is true for the Wei State, the new monarch of the old Qin Dynasty is more obvious than the previous monarch's desire for external expansion, and the King of Wei realized that the Zhongshan State of the distant attack is too far away, which will only divide the forces of the Wei State, and the Zhongshan State has been supported by the Zhao State to restore the country, and the Wei State is more disadvantaged in Zhongshan.

Therefore, before the winter of the fourth year of the first century, Wei also withdrew its troops from the territory of Zhongshan State, which had been occupied for six years, to Hexi County, in order to hold off the eastward trend of Lao Qin.
