Looking at the list of people, Wang Yue pondered for a moment and said, "Now the number of people in Liangshanbo is not too much, but too small. I have something for you. ”

Du Qian said: "I don't know what is going on?" ”

Wang Yue said: "The two of you, one with hundreds of soldiers, disguised up, secretly went to Shandong and Hebei to solicit, but anyone who is willing to come to Liangshanbo will be given five acres of land each." For every one of the people I recruit, I will give you a silver tael. ”

When Wang Yue first said it, these two people didn't think so, thinking that Wang Yue was really doing something redundant, and even thought that Wang Yue might be entertaining them, but when they heard the back, the two couldn't help but be overjoyed.

The two of them didn't have any big ambitions, and they came to Liangshan to fall into the grass in order to rob it. Rob the treasure, but rob it. It is not easy to rob treasures, people in Shandong Province know that Liangshanbo is not a good place, and the general business travelers are detours, and in a few years, the two of them have only accumulated a few hundred taels of silver.

And now, as long as they can bring back a few hundred people, they will be able to catch up with their accumulation of several years. If they could bring back thousands, tens of thousands of people, wouldn't they have tens of thousands of family property?

At the moment, I was overjoyed, and I couldn't wait to come here with thousands or tens of thousands of people tied up right now.

Wang Yue saw the expressions of the two and said, "There is one thing I want to remind you, you must not use force. Originally, we said that as long as we came, we would give five acres of land, and the people were tempted to come back naturally, but if we used force, I was afraid...... In this case, if I find that one of the people was forced by you, then I will deduct one hundred taels of silver from you, so remember, we must persuade the people of Hebei and Shandong to believe in our sincerity. ”

When Du Qian and Song Wan heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned, Wang Yue's words broke their minds that they wanted to forcibly kidnap the people to go to Liangshan, but even if they persuaded them verbally, they believed that they could make some people come to Liangshan.

After leaving here, Du Qian and Song Wan both laughed.

Du Qian said: "There is such a good thing? It's unbelievable...... In the past, we robbed houses and houses, and we were desperate with our heads, and we couldn't get much silver, but now as long as we bring a common person to Liangshan, we will have one or two pieces of silver, which I think is really like a dream. ”

Song Wandao: "The current big leader is a well-known figure in the rivers and lakes, and it is said that he has already had hundreds of thousands of family properties...... It is much better to follow such a big leader than to follow Wang Lun. ”

Wang Lun was mean and stingy, when he went down the mountain to rob in the past, 90% of the gold and silver belonged to Wang Lun, and the rest were divided by the three leaders of them. Now that they compare, both of them think that Wang Yue is better.

Du Qian said: "Since this is the case, I will go to the area of Cangzhou Mansion in Hebei Province and solicit people there." ”

Song Wandao: "I'll go to Qingzhou Mansion and Jeju Mansion to go around, and when the time comes, we will recruit more people than anyone else." ”

The two laughed again, and at that moment they each brought 200 minions, dressed up as ordinary characters in the rivers and lakes, and went down the mountain to complete Wang Yue's task.

Wang Yue then sent a letter to Xuanhe to relocate the people of Dongping to Liangshanbo.

You must know that the people are the foundation of a political power, and without the population, no matter how good the system is, it is impossible to become strong. Wang Yue needs at least a million people to establish a base area.

With the people, after Liangshanbo can be self-sufficient, he doesn't have to rob his house, so that he can really get rid of the identity of bandits and make this place truly become a "regime".

In the following month, Wang Yue understood and controlled Liangshanbo on the one hand, and on the other hand, he discussed the issue of Liangshanbo's military system with Lin Chong.

Speaking of the arrangement of troops in this era, Wang Yue is naturally far inferior to Lin Chong, but Wang Yue comes from modern society and has many advanced opinions in his heart, but these are better than Lin Chong.

"Brother, do you know how the military system of this dynasty is different from that of Emperor Qin and Han Wu and the Tang Dynasty?" Wang Yue said.

"This ...... I don't know, so I asked my brother to tell me. Lin Chong said.

"During the Qin Emperor, the Han Dynasty, and even the Tang Dynasty, all the young men of the country were obliged to accept the signs, and when the country needed it, they had to join the army, take up arms, and fight for the country. The current dynasty implemented a conscription system, and the first soldiers were selected from the homeless and hungry people, because the government of this dynasty believed that after the young and middle-aged people among the displaced and hungry people were removed, it was impossible for the remaining old and weak to rise up against the imperial court. As soon as these people became soldiers, they immediately turned into soldiers, and their descendants were all soldiers, and they did not have to work from now on, and were supported by the imperial court, but the imperial court's salary was generally not paid, and even if it was issued, there were many deductions, which was not enough to support the family, so these soldiers went to do some small business, or went to be tenant farmers, and the officers did not dare to let the soldiers come to train, so as not to arouse public anger. And whenever there is another disaster in some places, soldiers continue to be selected from the homeless and hungry people, so that the size of the army of this dynasty is getting bigger and bigger, but the quality is getting worse and worse. Many people are soldiers from birth, remain soldiers until they die of old age, and have never touched a gun a few times in their lives, but they have to go to war in war. They are just inheriting their father's profession, and they can't do it if they want to. Wang Yue said.

"Listening to what you say, the military system of this dynasty is far inferior to that of the Qin, Han, and Tang dynasties?" Lin Chongdao.

"It's natural...... The problem of redundant troops in this dynasty has developed to the point where it is difficult to improve, there are more and more soldiers, but the combat effectiveness of the soldiers is getting worse and worse, and the court consumes more and more gold and silver on the army...... Unless there is a change of dynasty, this problem will not be solved. Wang Yue said.

Lin Chong was silent for a moment, sighed, and nodded in agreement with Wang Yue's opinion.

"So, brother, in the future, I Liangshanbo will not be able to implement the system of this dynasty. We want to implement the conscription system of the Qin and Han dynasties, and all young men in Liangshanbo are obliged to join the army, and must be called up, and when the service period is up, they can leave the army and become ordinary people again. Wang Yue said.

"However, there are only a few of us in Liangshanbo, where do we recruit from here?" Lin Chongdao.

"I have sent Du Qian and Song Wan to various places in Hebei and Shandong to recruit people, and I am moving the people from Dongping. At that time, the number of people in Liangshanbo will increase, and the conscription system will be truly implemented at that time. Now the conscription system is just an idea in my heart, and there is still a lot to be improved when it is actually implemented. Wang Yue said.

For example, the scale of conscription, the selection of soldiers, the length of service of soldiers, the bereavement pension of soldiers after they die in battle, the preferential treatment measures for soldiers after returning to their hometowns, and so on, all these must be carefully studied, and problems encountered in the course of implementation must be corrected immediately, and it will take at least several years to thoroughly improve them.
