Chapter 9 Selfish Reform

In the end, Luo Dianguo, like many small countries in the southwest, did not escape being annexed by a larger and more civilized country, and a barbaric and backward country was annexed by an advanced civilization, Luo Yi felt that it was normal, this was inevitable.

Although history has also occurred backward and overthrown civilization, but they are all a minority, and they will not last long, even if they are like Dajin, Dayuan, and Daqing, who can say that the rulers at that time were not backward and corrupt?

Besides, whether it is Dajin, Dayuan or Daqing, their weapons and equipment, and the proficiency of war horses are not comparable to the rulers of the time, these certainly do not belong to the category of civilization, but they also achieved the ultimate in barbarism.

Although all this is inevitable, Luo Yi is still very sad, who let this laggard, his own Luo family also has a share.

When the new ruler came to power, his favorite thing to do was to exterminate the main members of the royal family who had ruled before, and to win over some people who were useful and would not be harmful to their rule, which has formed a standard process for thousands of years.

Luo Dianguo naturally went through this process, the core royal family members were killed and injured, and it was rare to survive one or two, just like Luo Yi's great-grandfather.

In order for his own people to survive, he kept splitting and splitting again, and almost integrated into all the ethnic groups in the southwest Yi, and finally like Luo Xiong, he thought he was a slave from birth, and he has always lived like this.

"The reason why your grandfather told your father these things at the beginning was that he didn't want me to rebuild the Luo Dianguo, but just hoped that future generations could live well.

If it doesn't happen to Ah Gota and her mother, the father must still be a hunter now, even if the father tells you these Luo family pasts, he doesn't want you to rebuild any Luo Dianguo, I just want you to know that the father cares about you very much, not your talent's wisdom.

When I adopted your adopted son, first, Ah Guo liked you very much, and secondly, I thought that you were a descendant of my clan from your surname, and suspected that your teacher was the great witch of my clan, although my father did not have the idea of restoring the glory of my clan, but he was not willing to leave any of his own clansmen.

Later, slowly, my father liked you more and more, and really regarded you as my own relatives, and my father knew that you couldn't be angry because I didn't tell you about Whiteface Mountain, can you tell me why? ”

"I don't like people groveling, I don't like people to be high and low, I don't think you like it either, Daddy, otherwise you wouldn't say that you don't like the family of White-faced Mountain.

Because there is no popularity here, there is a lot of resentment and unwillingness here, in a sense, Daddy is the royal family of Luodian, but Daddy, do you recognize this Luodian country? Do you recognize yourself as royal? ”

"Luo'er, what do you want to say, just say it."

"Then let me ask Daddy first, what was your original intention in establishing this force in the first place?"

"Avenge your mother, kill the damned Li Peng" Li Peng, Luo Xiong is boundless anger.

"Yes, the reason why we built our forces is because we were oppressed and bullied, and it has nothing to do with Da Luo Guo and Luo Dianguo, Daddy, you have lived a poor life since you were a child, and you know what it's like, so I don't need to bully people who are more miserable than us."

Luo Yi felt that he was very despicable, and used Luo Xiong's feelings for him to induce him to achieve his own goals, although the starting point and the ending may be beneficial to Luo Xiong, the guilt still lingered in his heart.

Huang Ling was at the entrance of the East Village, waited for a long time, and didn't see Luo Yi coming, just wanted to call someone to go to the Commander's Mansion to see what was going on, Luo Rong and Luo Yi ran over on the same horse.

"It's rude, it's too late, Brother Huang Ling, there's something going on today, I won't go, I'm going to leave tomorrow morning."

"Don't go, young commander, what's the matter! Worse than going to find iron ore. ”

Luo Yi also felt that this was a bit bad, but what he had to do now was much more important than looking for iron ore, and he knew where the iron mine was, and finding it would not be helpful to the pattern of the Vimo Department at this stage, otherwise he would have made up an excuse to find it before.

Now the eighteen villages are the reform, a total of more than 5,000 people, there are not many people who have lost interests, this stage is a special period, no one dares to get along with most people, now it is very suitable, I can't make up my mind before, now, do what I want to do.

Luo Yi turned around and said to Luo Rong: "Second brother, these brothers, you help arrange it, Huang Ling and I have something to do." ”

"Okay, you go! I'll arrange it, brothers, come with me. ”

Huang Ling looked at it, a group of teenagers were taken away by Luo Rong, and said a little angrily: "Young Commander, if there is anything, it is not good to decide what is good and change it at will." ”

Luo Yi said embarrassedly: "I know, but even if we find iron now, within two or three months, it won't be of much help to Eighteen Villages, so I think we should change our strategy."

This crisis is also an opportunity, an opportunity for us to unify Vimo, you say that looking for iron is more important than this. ”

Huang Ling said incredulously: "Really, there is really a way. ”

"Yes, but it is very difficult to implement, it will damage the interests of some people, these people include you and me, of course, I can't look down on this benefit, I think you can't look down on it either, but there must be some fools who are different from you and I think, so I need the support of your Huang family."

Huang Ling was confused, what do you mean that you can't look down on, I can't look down on it, and you have to ask the Huang family to support it, shouldn't you go to your father? When can I be the master of the Huang family and unify the Vimo Department, this idea is good, but is there really a way to do it?

Huang Ling said: "Young Commander, just say what I can do!" If you want the Huang family to support you, you should go to my eldest brother or father, you are looking for the wrong person if you look for me. ”

"Hehe, that's right, it's you, let's go to your house, you should have a study! You'll know what's going on then. ”

I also do a reform of Fan Zhongyan once, but I will definitely not be a saint like Fan Zhongyan, "The worries of the world are worried, and the joys of the world are happy." "I don't want to worry about being happy, except for Daddy and Ago, whoever stands in the way will die.

What Luo Yi has to do now is to let everyone know that Luo Xiong has a son named Luo Yi in the Eighteen Villages, so as to prepare for the next reform.

Due to the population restrictions of the eighteen villages, almost every family has joined the army, and the beneficiaries are only the first to follow Luo Xiong's group of people, and the rest are Huang He's new recruits in order to expand the army, these people do not have much benefit, they are just forced to join the army, their families still grow a lot of fields, get very little food.

What is the nature of human beings, Luo Yi knows too well, since they are all enslaved, what is the difference between being enslaved by the superiors of the Eighteen Villages and the enslavement of other forces, even if there is, it is only the depth of enslavement, how can it be possible to expect these people to work hard for it.

When everyone is the beneficiary and what a terrifying power it erupts, Luo Yi knows very well that this is the case with fighting local tyrants and dividing the land, and the same is true when fighting small Japan, when everything is based on their own interests, the energy that people can explode is terrifying.

Huang Ling held the wolf's hair, and wrote straight, from Luo Yi said that he wrote the first "National Equalization Law", his sweat has not stopped, this law summarizes, how to equalize the land, tax collection, forced labor, management and many other livelihood issues.

Huang Ling was amazed by Luo Yi's wisdom and strategy, but he was also afraid of the consequences of the implementation of this law, which would harm the interests of many people, and the most damage was the current ruling class of the Eighteen Villages, and their Huang family was no exception.

Huang Ling didn't know what the reaction of the eldest brother and father would be when they saw it, but he didn't regret participating in the setting of this law, although he didn't know what would happen in the future, he was inexplicably excited in his heart.

Luo Yi watched Huang Ling finish writing all the details, and did not mean to stop, and put on a piece of yellow straw paper again, signaling Huang Ling to continue, "Primary Administrative Organs", town mayor, deputy town mayor, town finance chief, household registration minister, town health chief, village official, village head......

Luo Yi directly copied the staffing that a town should have in the future, but due to the backward conditions here, the number of personnel has decreased a lot, and even a simple hospital cannot be set up, and the conditions are not enough at all.

Luo Yi didn't know if Luo Xiong would fully support him, he was too young now, and many things were inconvenient and unqualified, but Luo Yi didn't plan to let go of any small details, a village chief was spontaneously recommended by the villagers for such small details, and he also asked Huang Ling to write it.

Looking at Huang Ling, who hadn't sweated since he started writing, Luo Yi smiled and quipped: "Vimo in July, isn't it too hot, Third Brother Huang, what's wrong with you?" ”

Huang Ling, who had written the last word, wiped a handful of sweat and said with a bitter face: "Hey, hey! My young commander, you can kill me, do you know how many people's interests will be damaged once the "National Equalization Law" is released?

First of all, it's your Luo family, Commander Luo Xiong can say that this attention is from his son, but what about Deputy Commander Luoba? Next is your relatives, and then the entire Gu clan, our eighteen villages are a force headed by the Gu clan, and you say how big a hole you have stabbed. ”

Of course, Luo Yi knows that how many people benefit from doing this, and how many people's interests are damaged, what he has to do is that after the reform, you will benefit as much as you have the ability.

Those who are good at archery can join the army, those who can do business, those who are good at learning will enter the office and teach, and the craftsmen will continue to do their own skills, and those who can farm will never be allowed to eat idle food, unless they are lonely and widowed, and they are disabled special groups. (Writing is required, not discrimination)

After drinking tea, Luo Yi looked at Huang Ling with a smile and said, "You have been talking for a long time, but it seems that you didn't talk about your Huang family!" I know that your Huang family's acres of land seem to be only less than my family's and Uncle Ba's's. ”

Since writing "Primary Administrative Institutions" Huang Ling has not been as nervous as at the beginning, hearing Luo Yi's jokes, he said with a smile: "My Huang family, what else is there to say, you wrote your own suggestions in the lower corner of "Administrative Institutions" I, I think my eldest brother and father read it, and they should not have objections to the "National Juntian Law". ”

Luo Yi smiled and said: "You are wrong, if you are drafted in these two articles, I guarantee that your father will definitely beat and scold you as if he has never seen these two drafts."

How many people's interests have been harmed in the "National Equalization Law", and in the "Primary Administrative Body", I suggested that your father be the first mayor of the town, and your eldest brother is the minister of finance, do you think it is feasible? ”

After listening to Luo Yi's words, Huang Ling's hair stood up, sweat flowed from his forehead, and he suddenly understood that who had the final say in the Eighteen Villages, if it was really drafted for these two articles, Huang Jiawei would also be in danger.

Huang Ling lost her voice and said: "You want to harm the Huang family"

As he spoke, he was about to get the two drafts that had been written, Luo Yi hurriedly blocked them, and now this guy must have wanted to tear up the two drafts, so he hurriedly said loudly: "Huang Ling, you stop for me, do you think it makes sense for me to do this?" Hold the pen, do you think you're done? ”

Huang Ling also calmed down, knowing that he cared about it, but whoever knew what he was doing might kill his own family would do so, Huang Ling saluted Luo Yi and said, "Young commander, Huang Ling Meng Lang." ”

"Meng Lang's is me, Third Brother Huang forgive me, let's continue, the people and the government are here, what should be next?"

"Army" Huang Ling blurted out.

"That's right! Army, every force, or country, army is indispensable, out of self-preservation or if you want to expand your territory, the army must exist, okay, now I say, you write, together, create a miracle. ”

Can there be a miracle, Huang Ling doesn't know, he only knows that now he has to write according to what Luo Yi said, otherwise the first two copies, which he thought were shocking, would be wasted, and it was still possible to kill his own family.

Luo Yi also has a general understanding of the army establishment of the Eighteen Villages, most of which are Huang He's copy of the military system of the Great Song Dynasty, of which the Tuntian soldiers are one of them, which can be described as extremely chaotic, the army was originally used to fight or guard, and the Great Song Dynasty was destroyed by Jin because of the weakness of the army.

Luo Yi directly copied the military system of later generations, squads, platoons, companies, battalions, regiments, brigades, divisions, and armies, in view of the strength of the eighteen villages, barely enough for one battalion, and made some new titles, such as village guards, town guards, etc., but town guards, village guards Luo Yi hopes that some retired veterans will do some police work in later generations.

There is a military system, naturally military ranks are indispensable, and the administrative agency is now the largest is the mayor, Luo Yi did not set the grade, but the military ranks are still all listed, soldiers, soldiers, lieutenants, colonels, and generals at all levels.

Each rank is refined, and two higher ranks are also set up, general, marshal, and list the positions suitable for each military rank, how many soldiers and horses are commanded, and this "national army military system" is finally completed.

In order to prevent Huang He, Luo Xiong and others from arbitrarily arranging military ranks, Luo Yi wrote on the paper: "Luo Yi suggested that Luo Xiong be the battalion commander, the rank colonel, the company commander of Luo Ba, the rank of major, and the third-class sergeant major of Luo Rong. ”

Luo Yi copied the things of the later generations, and he didn't feel much, but Huang Ling felt how shocking this was, these military systems, military ranks, and military strength were obviously not what a Vimo Ministry could carry, so what Luo Yi wanted to do was almost self-evident.

Huang Ling couldn't help but be stunned, from writing "Primary Administrative Institutions", he knew that Luo Yi's ambition was not small, and now it was a military system, and the military rank Huang Ling basically affirmed that Luo Yi wanted to build a country.

Jianguo has to be so ambitious to think of something, and Luo Yi is only eight years old now, and the Eighteen Zhai Alliance is only one of the weakest forces in the small Vimo Department, but he personally participated in the drafting of the three articles, and he didn't feel that this thing was impossible, and he finally knew where he was excited and where he came from.

Luo Yi didn't know that he had ignited the blood of a teenager, the revolution was actually like this, a madman, with a group of fools, and then turn these fools into madmen, and then this group of fools led more fools until the revolution won or failed.

Fan Zhongyan's madman's revolution was a failure, although the seeds of his madness were left behind and spurred by Wang Anshi, but in the end, Wang Anshi fell into infamy.

Luo Yi doesn't know if his revolution will succeed, but before the revolution starts, keeping Daddy's family business is the key, and if he keeps it, there will be a revolution.

Seeing that Luo Yi was laying paper and grinding ink again, Huang Ling hurriedly picked up the pen, thinking that he was going to write something new, Luo Yi said with a smile: "No need, I'll just come." ”

Taking off a soft hair from the pen holder, Luo Yi began to describe on the paper, he hadn't held a pen for too long, let alone a brush, this thing didn't come to this era before, and it was not used once in a few years, except for occasionally going home for the Spring Festival to write Spring Festival couplets, it could be used once.

When I came to this era, I only saw the pen and paper today, and I couldn't even see half a piece of paper in Alubai Village, so I didn't need to say the book, there was no direct thing, and there were more than 700 people in the village, although Luo Yi, who joined the army, didn't know it completely, and I didn't see a literate person who didn't join the army.

Huang Ling originally thought that Luo Yi felt that writing by himself meant different things, but now he naturally wrote a lot, and it didn't matter who wrote it, but he didn't expect that Luo Yi was not writing any new theories, but painting.

A very big plum blossom, it took a lot of effort, Luo Yi finally drew it, put down the soft hair, mentioned Huang Ling used the wolf hair and began to mark, the heart of the flower is Lu Bai Village, the four petals are white-faced mountain, muddy green, cat and cat chong, Adou Zhai.

Huang Ling never thought that the villages around Alubai Village would be like this when united, he knew the surrounding terrain, a plum blossom was very vivid, but why did he never think of it?

Luo Yi put the troops in the eighteen villages to garrison, all placed in the flowers, on the petals of the white face of the mountain, marked out his own vision of Shuanglong Town, the petals of the four villages marked population, just the total population of the eighteen villages, everything is done, and write a big italics above the flowers "Shou".

Huang Ling understood, but he didn't ask, now he is very tired, physically and mentally exhausted, from entering the study to the present six or seven hours, he was shocked by what Luo Yi said, plus he had written 10,000 words, if he wasn't still shocked and excited, he would have crawled down tiredly.

Luo Yi was also very tired, but he wasn't tired, but this young body, after talking in the afternoon, his cheeks were sore, and his throat was as uncomfortable as if it was inflamed, but he still endured the pain and said: "Third Brother Huang, come on, sign and draw, I still rushed back to have dinner with Daddy, and my sister-in-law has also come to the door for a few moments, if I didn't think that I was small, I guess I would want to rush in." ”

Huang Ling said with a smile: "If your throat is uncomfortable, don't speak, like a duck that has been pinched by the neck, it sounds strange and uncomfortable, I know that you will definitely do this, come on." ”

Saying that Huang Ling printed his own seal on the three drafts and plum blossom patterns, Luo Yi didn't have this thing, so he could only write his own life words first, some fat little palms, pressed cinnabar ink, and pressed small palms on the names.

"Gone"

Seeing that Luo Yi was leaving, Huang Ling hurriedly pointed to the two masterpieces and said, "These? ”

"Give it to Huang Lao, he is the wise man of the Eighteen Villages, we can do all this, whether it will be successful or not, only God knows, sleep well tonight, we will set off tomorrow, and see you tomorrow."

Huang Ling was a little stunned, and she didn't even keep Luo Yi for dinner, but just looked at the four pieces of ink that had not yet dried through the big paper in a daze.

"Official, official"

Huang Ling's wife Liu Luan shouted several times, and Huang Ling finally came back to her senses and found that Luo Yi had left and the door of the study was wide open.

Liu Luan looked at her husband who was a little tired and said: "Official, the young commander has left, I don't know how the official can be so tired, the concubine will ask someone to prepare hot water, and the official has eaten dinner, bathed and went to bed." ”

"Luan'er doesn't need it, you go out first, I'll come after a while, and after dinner, I'm going to find my father."

Liu Luan is also a woman of the Han family, although she is not a lady, but the Liu family is also a rare family in the eighteen villages, a literate family, she has studied "The Female Ring" since she was a child, although she feels sorry for her husband, she is still smart and does not ask too much, hurriedly out of the study, and gently closes the door.

Watching his wife go out, Huang rolled up the three copies he wrote and tied them with hemp rope, as for the plum blossom picture painted by Luo Yi, because the ink was uneven, the ink was not completely dry, so he could only wait for dinner to get it.

White-faced Mountain Commander's Mansion, Luo Xiong looked at Luo Yi, who was talking awkwardly and with a tired face, and said, "I heard that you went to Huang Xiaosan's house, how could you be so tired?" ”

"Daddy, it's okay, it's just that I talk too much and my throat is a little uncomfortable, so I'll be fine tomorrow. Oh, by the way, we have to leave early tomorrow, and we have been delayed for a day, but we don't dare to delay, we should leave early, so that we can find some iron for the eighteen villages to come back early. ”

"Don't be too tired, the sky can't fall, there is Daddy on top, you are still a child, do what you can, eat!"

Luo Yi slept soundly this night, I don't know why, he often appeared in dreams of cluttered things, but he didn't appear.

This night the yellow crane did not close his eyes, since the youngest son sent three drafts, a plum blossom picture, seeing that his son was tired, he had to let him go back to rest first.

Huang He first took a closer look at the plum blossom map, the layout of the troops above, has been the new population of each village, the sentry posts around the villages, a plum blossom picture looked at an hour, and also understood the "guard" written by Luo Yi, this picture is to move all the people and troops of the eighteen villages to, the villages on the plum blossom pattern, guard, keep this plum blossom.

After understanding the meaning of the plum blossom diagram, Huang He looked at the "National Juntian Law" and was more and more surprised, he was a Song person, naturally knew Fan Zhongyan's change of law, he knew the difficulty, he was not Huang Ling, what he saw was a deeper level.

Bearing the weight and putting down the "National Juntian Law", Huang He Cheng was quiet for a long time, and looked at the "Primary Administrative Organization", although Huang He was sophisticated, but he almost finished reading it with Huang Ling's expression during the day, and saw Luo Yi's suggestion, but Huang He was not like Huang Ling, and it took a long time to find out that this would be a disaster for the Huang family.

Huang He almost immediately thought that Luo Yi wanted to harm the Huang family, and then laughed dumbly, if Luo Yi wanted to harm the Huang family, this drafting would not be on his desk, so the answer he wanted was in "The National Army Military System".

Huang He finished reading "The Military System of the National Army", which was also a rooster's song, and the military system Luo Yi basically moved the top configuration of a country, and refined it a lot, and the number of words was also the most in the three drafts, Huang He deduced while watching, and a few hours passed like this.

Huang He looked at the white belly of the fish outside the window, and then looked at the already low candle on the candlestick, and said with a sigh: "Luo Xiong! What kind of monster did you pick up for the Eighteen Villages, come back! ”
