"The military service system of my Datang is the government military system, which is characterized by the integration of soldiers and peasants. The government soldiers plough the land in peacetime, train in the agricultural gaps, and serve in the army in wartime. There are advantages and disadvantages to this system.

The advantage is that the army is not prone to rebellion. They usually work as farmers at home, but they only gather together during the war, the first they don't know their comrades, the second they don't know their officials, and they still have land at home, so they will not easily participate in the rebellion. In one, when the government soldiers participated in the war, the weapons and food were all provided by themselves, so the financial pressure on the imperial court would be reduced a lot. I don't know if I'm right? ”

After dinner, Fang Xuanling and Li Yi returned to the study and began to talk about the military service system, this kind of thing, Fang Xuanling did not let Fang Yizhi participate, he was not qualified.

"Hehe, you kid sees things very thoroughly, but this is just the surface!"

Li Yi smiled faintly. "The surface is enough, the details are not my consideration; My obligation is to help you analyze the problem. Just like the government military system, you can know from the surface just that his shortcomings are obvious. One. The government soldiers are farmers in peacetime and soldiers in wartime. As a result, the soldiers lack training and their ability to coordinate operations, and it can even be said that the soldiers do not know the generals, and the generals do not know the soldiers, and to put it more profoundly, the troops lack cohesion and centripetal force. The most important thing for an army is to have spirit, without this, it is too difficult to win a battle.

Second, the self-supply of weapons and food seems to share the financial pressure of the imperial court, but it will inevitably cause the logistics management of the team to be extremely messy, and even cause the situation that the weapons do not agree or the quality of the weapons is not the same. ”

Li Yi actually has a lot to say, in fact, the biggest shortcoming of the government military system is the annexation with land, but it is still too early to say this, and there is no point in it, even if it is said for a while, it will not be solved, and it will only increase the panic.

Fang Xuanling's eyes were full of light, how could he not know what Li Yi said? Although it is not so thorough, but it also understands the key, but for the Tang Dynasty and the emperor, the government military system is indeed the safest military service system.

"Boy, you also said that there must be disadvantages in everything, and it is better to give than to give!"

"Hehe, I didn't say that the government soldier system is bad, I just said that it is flawed, so since it is flawed, we have to find a way to improve it, right?"

Fang Xuanling suddenly became interested. "Oh? Tell me about it? ”

"There is a lack of training in the government soldiers, and once the farming is busy, the court encounters war, and the court recruits soldiers. So, let's change our thinking!

Nowadays, there are ten provinces in my Tang Dynasty and more than 350 state capitals. If you want to set up a national logistics system, each state capital must have at least three to five dart bureaus, and each dart bureau can raise about 50 to 100 dart masters and executioners, so that the whole Tang dart bureau will have at least 50,000 dart masters and executioners, and more can reach 200,000. In this way, it will be possible to reach one-third of the number of government soldiers. Think about it, if the object of the government soldiers is changed from the peasants to the dart master and the executioner, that is, the dart master and the executioner are the guards in peacetime, and the soldiers in wartime or patrol training; As for the government soldiers, they are farmers in peacetime, and they are dart masters or executioners in wartime, which not only ensures the combat effectiveness of the army, but also allows the farmers to have an extra income, and can also ensure the loyalty of the dart bureau.

And the most important thing is that the number of dart masters and executioners is not much, only 100,000 to 200,000, which can be used as elite soldiers, if it is a small and medium-sized battle, they can completely deal with it, and if it is a large battle, then all the people are soldiers; Both the dart master and the executioner belong to the lifelong professional system, so once there are soldiers in the imperial court, they can be quickly gathered together in a short time, and there is no embarrassment that the imperial court cannot recruit soldiers! ”

The more Fang Xuanling listened, the more excited he became, according to Li Yi, it became a combination of the government military system and the conscription system, the advantage of the conscription system is that in order to join the army to make money, officers and soldiers will usually work hard to exercise their skills, so that they can get a good position when recruiting, so as to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army, but it cannot guarantee the loyalty of the army, because the focus of the conscription system is money, whoever has money, who can recruit soldiers;

And if according to Li Yi's method, what the dart master usually does is to kill people, why protect himself, he will naturally work hard to train the ability to kill, so as to not only ensure the loyalty of the army, but also ensure the combat effectiveness, this is simply a perfect combination.

"Good boy, haha, it's really yours, go, go into the palace with the old man!"

Fang Xuanling said, and was about to pull Li Yi out.

"Why are you going?"

"Enter the palace?"

"What are you doing in the palace?"

"Nonsense, of course you are dedicating this plan to Your Majesty?"

Li Yi pursed his lips. "Don't go!"

"Why?"

"Hey! You are always quick to forget, Your Majesty and I only fought during the day, let us meet at night, are you not afraid that we will fight? ”

Fang Xuanling's eyebrows widened. "What nonsense? How can national events be compared to such child's play? ”

"Yes, this is child's play again, and I don't know who was in a hurry just now!" Li Yi couldn't help but slander.

However, Li Yi also admitted that if he talked about business, Li Er would never talk about anything else, and in terms of governing the country, Li Er was absolutely serious.

"Slow down, you've always heard!"

Stopping Fang Xuanling, Li Yi smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle Fang, I have said everything I can say, and I don't know the rest; This military service system is extremely complicated, and there are many rules and regulations, and if you want to realize what I said, this land system is the main problem, but I don't understand any of this, and even if I go, I can only stare dryly, so I mean you can find an opportunity to discuss it with Your Majesty and other adults, and after you have a conclusion, I am making additions, wouldn't it be better? ”

When Fang Xuanling heard it, it was really like this, dealing with government affairs is not something that can be solved in a few words, the content involved is extremely complex, and it is not something that can be changed if you want to, and these things don't have a few years of administrative experience, so it's really useless for Li Yi to go.

"In that case, that's fine, but you'll have to talk to me more!"

"That's fine!"

The two sat down again, and Li Yi continued.

"In fact, I have said what should be said, the detailed plan of the dart bureau I have already given you, I just say one point, the next step in the development of the business alliance is to establish a national logistics channel, at this point, I think you can cooperate with the dart bureau, one is responsible for safety, one is responsible for transportation, so that the division of labor can be clear, but also can contain each other. And with the support of the business alliance, the development of the dart game can also be faster. I even think that the dart bureau can be the same as the business alliance, and the power can be attributed to the imperial court, but the management can be operated by the people, or directly merged into the business alliance, so that the two complement each other and are better managed. ”

"Yes! Not bad! It's an idea! ”

Immediately, Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly. "You kid, it's really tiring to death, I just got a circular economy, I don't have any eyebrows, and now I'm playing a dart game, you really want to exhaust me!"

"Hehe, it's a bit more complicated in the early stage, but these are all complementary to each other, and when you sit at the end, you will find that all the things we are doing now come together and are a circular economy in itself."

Fang Xuanling's eyes lit up slightly, and he immediately smiled and said nothing.
