In addition to the military training of students, Daxing Juntun was also an important means for Li Hui to develop the militia, and there were large tracts of wasteland in the northeast, northwest, and newly occupied Nanyang land that needed to be colonized; considering that the frontier was not as stable as the interior, and there might be a threat from foreign enemies, and that it was far more difficult to open up the wasteland than to cultivate "cooked land", Li Hui moved the long-established military cantonment policy again. The Juntun farms www.biquge.info are all state-run, so they are exempt from collective retention, and the Juntun farms are intensively cultivated (anyway, the main purpose is to open up the land rather than harvest, so the yield is not so important). Labor productivity is much higher than that of ordinary peasant households, and even if large livestock can only be used instead of tractors for the time being, it is not difficult to achieve 100 mu per household in dry land and 50 mu per household in paddy fields.

In fact, no matter how ripe the place is a year, each military tun only grows one season a year, and the rest of the time must receive military training except for necessary rest. Because the time is longer and more continuous, the peasant soldiers in the military cantonments can really be used as reserves, and the speed of training and formation after being recruited into combat units is much faster than that of student soldiers, and for a period of time, their number is also greater than that of student soldiers, after all, in the short term, China is not yet able to carry out compulsory education beyond the primary school stage, and the undeveloped arable land resources that are enough to fill in the two or three hundred million agricultural population are enough to support the long-term existence of more than 10 million military cantonments.

Unlike regular soldiers, who only serve for three years in peacetime, they are required to serve for at least five years, after which they can choose to continue until they reach the age of 40 or terminate immediately. Although it is impossible for them to have so much land to plant, the ratio of collective retention to agricultural tax is lower than that of ordinary homesteaders, and in addition, they are allocated good land, and their income is at least twice that of ordinary local peasant households, which is even more than those in the hinterland, compared with those peasant households in the interior who are only allocated three or five mu of land because of the narrow land and dense population.

Therefore, in addition to the initial recruitment of some labor, with the propaganda to make the peasants all over the country realize the benefits, the peasant households are all flocking to it, basically as long as they are willing to immigrate to the frontier, they will choose to be a military camp for a few years, the Chinese peasants are shrewd, how can they not see how to choose the greater benefits?

In addition to the military training of students and military tuns, all counties and townships in the country have established their own militia contingents, basically achieving one regiment in one county and one company in one township......

Naturally, such a huge system could not be fully built in a year or two, the number of cadres and weapons required was not ordinarily large, and considering that most of China's regular army was newly expanded, and there was no pressure to disarm like the general founding regime, it could not be expected to use demobilized soldiers to kill two birds with one stone, and the time required would naturally be longer. However, if the military training of military cantonments and students wants to form a scale, it is also not possible to achieve it within one or two years, and the first thing that the Republic of China must solve is the problem of expanding and training the regular army.

However, once such a magnificent militia system is completed, the Huaxia Republic will be completely invincible, and even if there is no longer the overwhelming advantage that it has gained because of the opportunity to upgrade weapons and tactics as it does now, China will no longer be afraid of any military threat from the outside, even if the whole world is the enemy!

Of course, having said that, even if he really had this ability, Li Hui would try his best to avoid this situation, and the reason why he did not hesitate to spend countless people, money, and resources to build a militia is not now, but many years later.

Due to China's world's largest terrorist volume, as long as the level of productivity is not completely crushed, theoretically there should be no opponent, but in history, those great unified dynasties in ancient China were rarely able to be so strong except in the early days of the founding of the country, and they were even more unbearable in the Song and Ming dynasties (the same is true for the Jin and Qing dynasties, but both dynasties have the natural defect of not daring to arm the Han people in large numbers, which is not as typical as the Song and Ming dynasties. ), the average combat effectiveness of the army (a small number of elite troops still have it, but it is an indisputable fact that the average combat effectiveness of the army is too low, and this is undoubtedly very abnormal. It is pitifully weak, especially in the late Ming Dynasty (not yet the end of the period), the population of 200 million actually has less than 10,000 qualified troops capable of hand-to-hand combat in the field (this is really just a qualified standard), which is simply better than the later generations of "more than a billion Chinese people, but they can't pick out eleven balls to kick well." "And incredible.

It is not surprising that these two dynasties will die in Hulu, whose population is only a few tenths of their own, and what is even more embarrassing is that when each dynasty perished in the past, heroes appeared in China, and a new powerful dynasty was created, and no loopholes were exploited by the surrounding aliens, but after the Song Dynasty, there were no heroes in the real sense at the end of the unified dynasty, and there could only be some mediocre people like Li Zicheng (relative to those real cattle people), who could neither unify the Central Plains to bring peace, nor could they defend China from being bullied by foreign races, It has to be when China has been in war for a long time, or has been brutally oppressed by foreign races, so that the vast majority of Chinese people are worse than dead, so that heroes can come out and recreate Shenzhou......

This kind of history made countless Chinese sons and daughters sigh in later generations, but Li Hui thought about the essence behind the phenomenon, "Since ancient times, there are no heroes who can compete in the Central Plains and even win the world, none of them do not have outstanding military talents, even if Liu Bang and Liu Bei are not good at military affairs, they are actually only relatively weak, and their generals can actually be ranked in the top few in the world at that time, Liu Bang has only lost to Xiang Yu in his life, One of the reasons why Yingbu, who can be regarded as a famous general at the end of the Qin Dynasty, dared to rebel was that he thought that Liu Bang would not be able to drive the expedition in person when he was old, which shows Liu Bang's strong military ability; Liu Bei is relatively inferior, but there are also classic examples such as burning Bowangpo. ”

It is worth mentioning that most of these people did not start to learn military affairs after they started the army, but they had a foundation before the army, because of the classical militarism system of the Qin and Han dynasties, even civilians had to receive a certain degree of military training, so these heroes and the soldiers and horses they started were not comparable to those rabble in later generations, and their combat effectiveness may even exceed that of regular officers and soldiers.

With such a foundation, the possibility of early death is greatly reduced, and there will be many talents who can eventually grow. The possibility of the emergence of big heroes and heroes naturally increases; And when the tradition of training militia completely disappeared, the later figures who could compete in the world (such as Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, Zheng Chenggong and others in the late Ming Dynasty) could only come from the official army or bandits, and this selection was too small......
