Zhao Wuxian bowed down to Zhang Mengtan and bowed solemnly, "Tonight's incident, thanks to Meng Tan!" You are the first credit of Dinglu, but you only got a small housekeeper and a farmhouse, I really wronged you. ”

Zhang Mengtan hurriedly avoided returning the courtesy: "This is what the minister wants, the lord can listen to the words of the minister, and act the minister's policy, and the minister is too late to be happy, how can he complain!" ”

That's right, everything tonight was actually discussed in advance by Zhao Wuxian and Zhang Mengtan, and a part of the double reed was temporarily played.

In the past two months, Zhao Wuxian has been distressed about how to divide the merits after Dinglu, and people's hearts are unpredictable. At this moment, Zhang Mengtan took the initiative to ask for a meeting, advocating not to divide the more than 100 miles of territory.

"Concentrate the land and the people in the hands of the sovereign, and when defending against the enemy, it can be struck out like a fist, and if it is divided, it becomes five fingers of its own. There is a doctor here, a feudal lord there, although it is the loyal heroes who get the city, but everyone has selfish intentions, once they are called up to contribute money and strength, they will not do their best. “

"What Meng Tan said is exactly what I want!"

The two coincided, Zhao Wuxian was very pleased, yes, although the course has changed, the young Zhang Mengtan is still the one in history who said "the past is not forgotten, and the future is the teacher". After the siege of Jinyang, Zhang Mengtan consolidated Zhao Zong, so he advised Zhao Xiangzi to limit the fiefdom and fame of his retainers, and he even did not hesitate to give up his first merit, abandon his territory and power, and take his family to avoid seclusion, until Zhao was besieged by Qi, Chu, Wei, and Han, and did not come forward to relieve the siege.

Historically. It was his sacrifice that allowed the Zhao clan to complete the final step of turning the feudal family into a centralized country!

And now, Zhang Meng talks about his indifferent temperament to fame and fortune. prompted him to be in the country of Lu, when Zhao Wuxian was facing a difficult situation. The same choice was made.

Zhao Wuxian said again: "But if you say this openly, I am afraid that the soldiers will be cold and the ministers will be disappointed......" "The same thing is said in different ways, the effect is very different, and the subordinates have a suggestion, it is better to ...... like this"

So there was this performance tonight, Zhao Wuxian thanked Zhang Mengtan for his sincerity, and Zhang Mengtan's intention to give the reward also came from the heart, so everyone didn't see the fraud. On the contrary, I was very moved.

After setting up such a moral model as Zhang Mengtan who made great contributions but shirked the reward, the rest of the people couldn't boast about their merits and asked for this and that, and Zhao Wuxian's plan could be slowly unfolded.

The two sat opposite each other and began to discuss family and state affairs, Zhao Wuxian said: "Meng Tan is right, the beauty of imitating the Zhou family's division of the feudal system is very good at first glance, but it conflicts with the Qi family and the way of governing the country, and the heroes are named hereditary lords, which is not conducive to the integration of the Lu State. And it is easy to cause the confrontation between the Jin people and the Lu people. In the long run, there will be endless troubles, the Zhao family's small sect will be big, and the Lu ministers will rebel. I don't dare to forget these lessons! ”

"What is the Sovereign going to do?"

"I thought about it. People who aspire to be blessed can be roughly divided into four categories. Let me start from the bottom to the top. ”

"The main body of the warriors was recruited from the Song and Lu professional soldiers, and they originally joined in pursuit of land and money. Just do what you want. "Do you want it?" "That's right, I want to establish the system of awarding military merit in the form of a written law and implement it in the territory!"

......"In fact, this is a system that has long been implemented in the army, and military soldiers can be rewarded according to their meritorious deeds. Let me make an analogy, those who have made a third-class meritorious service can exchange their meritorious service for ten acres of land and a house, and at the same time, they can also be promoted for meritorious service and enjoy more military salaries. If you don't want to be promoted, you can get the corresponding money. Second-class merit, first-class merit increases in turn, and you can also get subordinates. ”

"Wonderful!" Zhang Mengtan praised: "Such a placement, not to reward relatives and reasons, but to eat hard work and meritorious service, the morale will be greatly increased, and the soldiers will be happy when they hear the battle." In the long run, the military soldiers married wives in the Lu country, took root, and became generations of soldiers with land and land in the villages, and their descendants will be the most determined group of people who support the Zhao family, so that they can compete with the xenophobic Chinese! ”

In fact, the first batch of soldiers had reached the three-year contract with Zhao Wuxian, and most of them chose to stay, and only a few chose to leave and return home. Those recruited from the Song Guoxin, Zhao Wuxian half-deceived them to sign a five-year long contract, and the military soldiers of Lu nationality had to serve until they could not be able to retire. Fifteen from the army, eighty years to return, this is professional recruitment!

Zhao Wuxian said with a smile: "Meng Tan, you still always stand in the perspective of the Jin people, don't completely oppose the martial arts and the Lu people." Because sooner or later, the number of military soldiers will be expanded, and more and more Lu people will be accepted at that time, and after the veterans of the military soldiers become grassroots military officials in the Yi soldiers and pavilion soldiers, and each brigade is assigned two judges who record the rewards and punishments of meritorious deeds, this system of awarding military merits can be implemented in the right army. ”

Zhang Mengtan sighed: "The scene of 10,000 people rising up and fighting hard for the meritorious field house is really unimaginable......"

Zhao Wuxian's subordinates, Tian Ben, Yu Xi, Mu Xia, Wu Jing and others, were originally low-class people in society who were born in ridges and acres and were subordinate to concubines, and they relied on their ability and merit to get to this day step by step. As long as Zhao Wuxian gave a little propaganda and these people set an example, this system would soon be able to gain the trust of the low-level soldiers of the Right Army. On the battle array, they are no longer apprentices fighting soy sauce, but tigers and wolves fighting for the money of the field......

In the Lu State, which was "Shiqing Shilu", when selecting talents, including military generals, except for the grassroots scholars who had risen through the outstanding performance of the township archery, they mainly followed the line of "respecting relatives and respecting" and were mainly selected among scholars and doctors.

The feudal lords at all levels in the cities and towns were officers at all levels in wartime. The military exploits on the battlefield are all recorded in the name of the lord, and whether the benefits will be distributed to the people under his command depends on the personal discipline. Generally speaking, ordinary people, no matter how much credit they have made in the war, are regarded as obligation, and military merit does not change their quality of life and social status.

However, military merits are awarded to the field, but the promotion is different.

Zhao Wuxian intended to emulate Qin's military merits and confer knighthood, but he was still young, and the title was only a secretary. Don't talk about any twentieth knights, even tenth-rank lords can't spread out. In the Spring and Autumn Period, the first merit was put forward early. It will be sprayed wildly by the moral gentlemen, so that the opponent has an excuse to kill and beat. Therefore, it can only be implemented in disguise......

But just like this, it is enough for the veterans under his command to become the first batch of military landlords in Lu State, and they will start from the grassroots level and make Lu State change! Military merits can be conferred on the field, which can quietly and effectively strike at the privileges of the old nobles of the Lu State, stir up the ups and downs of the social hierarchy, and wash away the stagnant and timid folk customs.

If this goes on for a long time, maybe ten years. Maybe in 20 years, the country of Lu may change the image of the weak old state of Lile and turn into a warlike and meritorious country!

……

The two ministers talked in vain, and the candlelight gradually melted, but the more the two people in the hall talked, the more excited they became.

Once upon a time, they deduced the battle formation in front of a chessboard in Xintian, talking freely about their ambitions and the current situation of the princes, and now, the time has finally come for the former teenagers to really take charge of a country.

After talking about the placement of the low-level soldiers. Zhao Wuxian also talked about the military officials who made more meritorious contributions, and only Tian Zhai was afraid that they could not be satisfied.

As the old team, the Jin people such as Tiger Society, Yang Tongue Rong, Tian Ben, and Yu Xi have no doubt about their loyalty to Zhao Wuxian, and they have never forgotten that the west of Taihang Mountain is their homeland. Many people's families are still in the Jin Kingdom. Zhao Wuxian planned to use Zhang Mengtan as an example to persuade them to "not return to their hometowns if they are rich and noble, such as walking at night in brocade clothes." "If the Jin family ministers are induced by Zhao Wuxian to assist the lord to return to Jin. Then what they are pursuing in the country of Lu is not a territory that cannot be taken away, but a vast land and many concubines. And then it's to get the Honorary Lord, and get more money.

Zhao Wuxian has millions of acres of food land in his hands, and he also controls the finances of Lu State, and the above desires can completely satisfy them. "Even, in order to prevent the military officials from losing their enterprising spirit, they can also seal a hundred food estates." Zhang Mengtan added a suggestion.

The so-called food eup, not the hereditary rule of the real seal, only take its tax fictitious, nominally the lord, but can only go to harvest grain, no right to govern the people, after the death of the scholar will be taken back. This situation is also generally practiced by the secretaries of the Jin State, and on the whole, the system of the Jin State should be advanced by the Lu State for a hundred years! In the Warring States period, the Sanjin Dynasty, like the Qi State, was also the core area of the outbreak of science and technology, culture, and thought. "Yes! In this way, the soldiers will not be chilled, and when they return to the Jin Kingdom, I will let them get their due status. “

Then, there are Zigong, Ran Qiu, Gong Xihua, Fan Chi, Zai Yu and others, in Zhao Wuxian's opinion, these Confucian disciples are the easiest group of people to dismiss......

They were born in the middle and lower classes of society, and most of them were civilians, and under the influence of Confucius's repeated resignation from the fiefdom, the disciples of the Confucian utilitarian sect held the idea of "learning and excelling", and had a strong desire for fame and power, but the ambition for the fief was not so great.

Headed by Zigong, these people seem to be treated politely by the lord, and they will be satisfied with the full fortune of Lu, these contented Confucian ministers are an important medium to help the Zhao family gain a firm foothold in the Lu country, and Wu Xian has to use these people while exchanging blood for the Lu country with military merits.

Zigong will be the pedestrian and the official in charge of goods and colony, Gong Xihua will take over the position of Confucius, Zai Yuhui will be transferred to Feiyi, and Ran Qiu is already the commander...... A group of poor men almost jumped to the doctor's class, and most of them were satisfied, and they deliberately avoided talking about the differences between Confucius and Zhao Wuxian, and worked diligently in their positions.

When it was time for the rooster to crow, the candle flame was about to burn out, and Zhao Wuxian had already slowly explained three different reward methods, and in the end, there were only some people who were insatiable and not very easy to deal with. "Those doctors who participated in the Xilu Alliance, Qin Yi, Gao Yu, Yi Yi, etc., and even my Yue family, Zhen Yi Zhen family, and the elders of various Yi clans, have now become real Zhao Qing vassals." "They felt that they had merit, so they had a bigger mind, Yi Zai and Sima wanted to be doctors, the lower doctors wanted to be middle doctors, and the middle doctors wanted to be doctors...... In addition to the title, I also want to be sealed, Xiaoyi wants to be replaced by a big yi, and one yi wants to increase to two. These people are accustomed to the system of the Lu State, and I am afraid that they will not be able to accept the military merit and the false sealing of the food estate. For these people, you can't kill them, you can't seal them, what does the lord think? “

Zhao Wuxian said with a smile: "It's very simple, I want to set up a county in Lu State, just merge Xiaoyi into a big county, if you don't want to be overridden by the county officials who have taken office as new officials, these people can only obediently move places!" ”
