Chapter 430: Treatment for Joining the Army

"What? Your Majesty, this is unacceptable~! ”

Hearing Meng Li's words, Tian Wei's body below trembled, and he hurriedly came out and hugged his fists and said.

It is really simple and abnormal to say that the emperor said this, but it is extremely difficult to do it.

If Qin Qingzhuang, who enthusiastically joined the army, was treated according to the soldiers of the Han army, how much food and silver would need to be paid to them in this regard, after all, the treatment of soldiers by the Han army can be described as a rare and generous in the world, and such a large expenditure is really a little difficult for the current Han Dynasty, of course, if you want to pay it, you can still take it out. However, this training is not for the Han people, but for the people of the former Qin who were still attacking some time ago, you spent money and grain to cultivate the young and strong of the people, not to mention that it is not easy to use, what if there is a mutiny?

After all, not to mention that everyone has the heart to restore the country, but they must still miss their motherland in their hearts, if someone has a heart to climb the heights, the young and strong people cultivated by the Han court are not all wedding dresses~!

What's more, there is another point, that is, before joining the army, Qin Qingzhuang's family members were all treated like the families of the Han army, and here, it is another large amount of money and food expenditure~!

Let's not talk about the usual trivial matters, but the following points can make the newly formed government offices in various parts of the former Qin Dynasty bear a big burden.

[1. If there is a man in the family who joins the army and has no son, the local government should support him for 18 years. 】

This alone can make those young people who live a very hard life in ordinary times enthusiastically join the army, after all, no matter how much a man works to support his family, it is very tiring, compared to the family after joining the army, three meals a day are guaranteed. This is really too straightforward, and this may cause a sensation in some of the poorer places in the former Qin. Then it caused great economic pressure on the government, which was not wealthy. 】

[2. Anyone who has a man in his family who has joined the army and has a wife and children before joining the army. The government must be responsible for teaching their sons to study and continue to study until they reach adulthood.

After all, reading at this time means being talented, it means being able to be an official in the future, and it means that the family may be able to become a master in the future, and at this point, it will cause a fluster.

[3. Whenever there is a man in the family who joins the army. In addition, when there are other sons in the family, the government pays one year's food according to the local living standard, and then as long as the man is in the army, he will pay half a year's food. 】

This point will attract the madness of those who have many children in the family, after all, a man eats a lot of food, and it is not easy to raise a son at home, so sending one to be a soldier seems to be very worthwhile.

Moreover. After the man in the family died in the war, the family was treated as an honorary family, and that treatment was on a higher level.

Plus a few other benefits, as long as you choose to be a soldier. Then it will definitely not be a loss, the sergeant regulations of the Han Dynasty are so generous, which is probably related to the national conditions of the Han Dynasty.

Originally, the treatment of the soldiers of the Han Kingdom was good enough. As a result, after Meng Li became the emperor and stabilized the regime, he added some more. The treatment after joining the army makes the young men who are now living a rich life excited, not to mention how big the gap between the rich and the poor is. There are still remnants of the former Qin territory of slavery~!

It can be said that as soon as Meng Li's holy decree is issued, then the grand occasion of the former Qin conscription can be expected.

"Yes, Your Majesty, although we have occupied the former Qin, and there is no chaos in the suppression of the generals in various places, but if such a large-scale training of the people of the former Qin, there may be any major turmoil~!"

It seems that Meng Li's order has gone a little too far in the hearts of the ministers below, so it has attracted rebuttals from one minister after another.

"Your Majesty, now that the territory of Qianqin has just been pacified, it would be a bit too early to use the money and grain of our imperial court to cultivate the youth of Qianqin~!"

"Your Majesty, so much money and food is used for our young and strong Han, it must be much more cost-effective than these young and strong people of the former Qin, and my big man is not without so many young and strong~!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, otherwise, it would be better to lower the reward for joining the army on the side of Qianqin and adjust it to be higher than the original reward for joining the army of Qianqin~"

……

One by one, the ministers were all having a headache for the emperor's order, and Meng Li didn't have a backache when he stood there and spoke, but if this was to be carried out, the Han Dynasty, which was already quite wealthy, would immediately face a link of hemorrhage of money and food.

However, everyone is looking at the situation in the blue continent today, if it is to recruit Han people, there will definitely not be so many remarks, but recruiting the young and strong people of the former Qin, when they think of their wealth to cultivate young and strong combat power for others, the ministers below are a little reluctant.

"Hmph, I said it, I will naturally do it, otherwise, how can I make my soldiers feel my idea of treating everyone equally~!"

Looking at the painful expressions of the ministers below, Meng Li frowned and said resolutely. Of course, what he said was still very particular, it was only his soldiers who treated everyone equally, as for the treatment of the people of the former Qin and the people of the Han Dynasty, then Meng Li could only smile~

Moreover, if he did so, it would be very helpful to increase his prestige among the people of the former Qin and solidify his image of supremacy among the people of the former Qin.

Such a high-level treatment of the young men who joined the army in the former Qin will make other former Qin people envious and increase their sense of belonging to the Han Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, who will train you after recruiting so many young people?"

Guo Jia also frowned and thought below, but he would not question the emperor's order, but was thinking that there must be two or three hundred thousand soldiers and horses for such a recruitment, so who will bring these soldiers and horses?

After all, the war has just ended, and now that the generals can't pull out their hands, isn't it a little inappropriate to recruit so many soldiers?

"This, I have my own arrangement~!"

At this time, Meng Li didn't want to directly say the names of these ten generals, after all, it was a little difficult to give this order just now, and if he said this order now, it was estimated that it would attract the opposition of the ministers below.

After all, it is okay to recruit the soldiers of the former Qin, and let a group of generals who have just surrendered to train, which is a bit unspeakable~

In this case, take a group of generals who don't know the details to train a group of former Qin people who are still opposing the Han just now, how can this be a little unreliable~!

Even if it is Meng Li, if he doesn't know the situation of these ten generals, he will think that this is a fantasy~ (To be continued......)
