Compared with other roads, the civil affairs of Qinfeng Road are quite harmonious, even if there are many people under the rule, there is no such bad incident as a village because of the forced promotion and merger. Of course, this kind of harmony is not without a price, but it is accompanied by a large amount of money and grain investment, which has brought tangible benefits to the people of Fanhan who have accepted the policy. This kind of investment is not a purchase, but a real change in the production and living environment in this area, which will make their lives better and better in the long run.

But in fact, whether it is in military or civil affairs, Qin Fenglu does not spend much money compared to other types. When the other roads kept asking the imperial court for money and grain, Qin Fenglu had a large amount of surplus, and the warehouse was full of various materials.

How much money is spent and how much is done depends not only on the amount of money spent, but also on the efficiency of spending money, and this is the difference in the level of governance in different places. What Xu Ping has always done with his money, he can't do it with two or even more other ways. Without him, no official would be willing to spend so much energy on management like Xu Ping.

Every political matter in Qin Fenglu has a detailed plan and summary, and the gains and losses must be listed after one thing is done. The merger of accounts for the village is not a hula la implementation, but a detailed plan has been made in advance, where to start, how to gradually roll out, and where to end in the end. How much money will be spent in this process, how much materials will be used, and how much manpower will be invested must be calculated clearly at the beginning. If there is any discrepancy with the plan in the process of doing it, adjust it according to the actual situation at any time and update the plan. The garrison of Qin Fenglu, where it was stationed, where the grain and grass materials used came from, where it was stored, and what actions it had, everything was clear. The materials required by the garrison are always prepared in advance according to the plan to minimize unexpected incidents. Even if he went to fight Zhuoluo City, there was no rush to dispatch the people to transport grain, which all depended on proper planning.

The losses caused by a one-time emergency can be very huge, and the sudden action of the army can consume the savings of the whole year in less than a month. For example, the two roads of Yanyan and Huanqing, because Fan Yong asked the armies to relieve the siege of Yanzhou, they exhausted their savings. The surprise delivery of grain requires the requisition of people, and the treatment is particularly harsh, so that the people complain everywhere, and the dead and wounded people on the way to transport grain, and the donkeys, horses, and camels that are completely abolished, will overdraw the military potential along the way. On the contrary, Qin Fenglu has planned clearly from the very beginning, where to transfer the materials used by the garrison in daily life, where to establish material reserves at which key nodes, where to deal with emergencies, and how to transport them.

Diligence can make up for clumsiness, as long as things are done seriously, not in a blind toss, there will inevitably be good returns. The reward for Xu Ping's serious work is that his actions on Qinfeng Road, regardless of military or civil affairs, are the largest and most among the several roads, but there has never been a shortage of materials, and there has never been a military and civilian grievance, and there is more and more room for doing things in the future. The biggest problem Xu Ping is facing now is a serious shortage of manpower. He needs people to do things, and he needs a lot of manpower to do this, but Qinzhou is still a border state army in the end, and officials in the interior are unwilling to come, which is a little difficult.

After discussing the matter of merging accounts into villages, Xu Ping said: "If it is not peaceful today, we often say that in order to cope with external and internal troubles and reduce the money and food needed by the forbidden army, we should use the army and the people. It is not necessary to divide the people into village soldiers, let them protect their armor, and teach them at four o'clock, but we should never forget this point when administering the local government. For example, when there is a lot of rain in summer, the people of Qinzhou are mostly in the valley, and they will inevitably face floods. What should I do if the flood really comes? You can't talk about it when it's raining, but you should plan ahead. If this plan is that the rain comes, what the big households here do, and what the big households there should do, this is not called the army and the people, even if the people here are not the people. What should I do? Like a war in the army, with the rain, send people to patrol the embankment and observe the water situation, like scouts in the army. If they find something wrong, where to report, what level of risk information to the village, what level of risk information to the village, what level of risk information to the village, and then to what level to report to the county, to what kind of state. Don't have no clue about doing things, no matter how big or small things are reported to the state together, then you can't do what you should be doing. Whether it is a village, a village, a county, or a prefecture, if the danger is confirmed, it can be dealt with at its own level, so it should be determined in advance. Where the embankment bursts, how should it be filled, how many people should be used, how should it be requisitioned, how much soil should be used to fill the embankment, and where should it be dug from. All such things must be planned in advance, and they will be carried out according to the order as if they were fighting a war in the army, which is called the use of soldiers for the people. Other canals, roads, and bridges are all the same, imitating the army to fight and act, and to do too much to form a habit, and to form a habit of firing swords and guns in wartime, according to villages, villages, counties, and prefectures, it doesn't matter if you don't know the ranks for a while, and if you teach and practice, you will be a complete army. The military system of the Qin and Han dynasties, together with the war, was often able to recruit and mobilize a large army in a short period of time, which is why it is so. As soon as the war ended, the swords and guns were collected, and they still went back to farming without delaying agricultural production. Fanhu relied on hunting to train the people to be familiar with warfare, and we Han people should use all kinds of projects and deal with various natural disasters to train the people to be familiar with military affairs. Serving the people is not to issue swords and guns to the people, which is not necessarily, but to familiarize them with the rules of warfare when they are administering in peacetime. Qinzhou's merging accounts into villages, arranging households and people, and even changing customs must be combined with this. You must keep this in mind when you make rules and regulations. ”

Shi Yannian, Fan Xiang and Zhao Ziying knew that this was the governing principle set by Xu Ping for him.

Now the forbidden army relies on recruitment, in fact, there is no problem with recruitment, and the most pitiful thing is that it can enter or exit. The war was fought together, and the army was recruited extensively, and the number of people was too large to support the finances, so we hurriedly found a way to end the war. But the war is over, the recruited soldiers are still in the army, and the money spent can't be lowered, and the court still has to be dragged to death. Where the soldiers come from and where the war is over is a question that cannot be avoided, and Xu Ping will need to face it one day in the future.

First tried out a set of systems in Qinzhou, which could quickly expand the army during wartime, and disperse people back to the people after the war, which was what Xu Ping had to do next. The requirements of cold weapon warfare for soldiers are not so evil, and swords, guns, swords, and halberds do not need to be familiar with ten or eight years before they go to the battlefield, and the most important thing is organizational discipline. Qualified soldiers are people with strong organization and discipline, not people who go on horseback, fight dogs, ride horses, and shoot hunting every day; this is the characteristic of an agrarian nation, and the military system should suit this characteristic. In order to expand the scope of recruitment of military personnel, the most important thing is to implement organization and discipline in the daily life of the people. In this way, not only can we recruit a wide range of people during wartime, but after the war is over, soldiers can also quickly adapt to the lives of the people, so that they will not be uncomfortable everywhere when they leave the environment of the army. Originally, there were not many Han people under the direct jurisdiction of Qinzhou, and most of the places were merged into villages for more than a year to expand the scope of the direct jurisdiction. It is easy to draw on a blank sheet of paper, and it is easier to try out new systems in these places.

Aside from the material foundations of science and technology and the economy, the military system has a great influence on the military capability of the country and the nation, and the influence of military culture is even greater. Integrating a suitable military culture into all aspects of the people's lives and enabling them to become familiar with military culture in peacetime is a way to fundamentally enhance military capabilities, and it is also a method that can benefit the millennium.

As an agrarian people, the Han people adapted to their own military system by having a high degree of organization and strict discipline, and tried their best to decompose military operations into precise and strict manners, and did them step by step. The more complex the military operation, the higher the level of knowledge required, and the higher the level of management required, the more the Han people have an advantage. By generalizing everything and withdrawing management and expertise from the army, the advantages of the Han people were abandoned. The decline of the forbidden army is the decline of civilization in the army.
