Chapter 199: Organization and Personnel
When Cheng Yang returned to Luofeng Village, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon, and he also did not go out to kill the demonic beast, but called Li Wanshan to his room to discuss what to do next.
In the evening, Yu Kai returned to Luofeng Village with his fox hunting camp. Cheng Yang summoned all the commanders of the main battle battalions over and held a meeting.
There are many things to decide this time, the most important of which is the expansion of the army, and the management of more than 100,000 people in each village.
The meeting lasted five or six hours, and it was almost 1 a.m. before everything was decided.
For the expansion of the main battle camp, first expand all the fighters who have been transferred from the main city to the main battle camp. Or now this main battle camp can no longer be called a war camp, but a war group. Because now the actual number of each team is more than 1,500 men, which is close to the establishment of two battalions. Of course, the number of personnel is even larger, and it is completely planned according to the full number of regiments, and the number of each regiment is more than 3,700 people, that is, the strength of five battalions.
Each regiment has one lieutenant and three deputy lieutenants.
The reason why the regiment is being brought out now is to facilitate its expansion in the future. It is equivalent to setting up the shelf now, and after the number of fighters increases in the future, the personnel will be directly added. In fact, if it weren't for Cheng Yang's high requirements for the army's combat effectiveness, these five major war regiments would be completely full now. However, Cheng Yang finally decided to temporarily only include the fighters who had been transferred from Luofeng Village.
In the future, after the formation of Dongshan Village and Xianghe Village, those who transferred or became naturalized in these two villages must also join the army, which is a dead order, and those who do not want to join the army can only join the territory by annexation.
Of course, now these warriors who have just been transferred from the three villages have also been attached to the territory of Luofeng Village for the first time, and they have also enjoyed the attribute bonus of the professional statues in the village.
Regarding the arrangement of this part of the people, Cheng Yang had already made a conclusion before. Basically according to their will, most of the people are engaged in life and occupation, and some of them form the armed forces of the subordinate stations, and this armed force will also be the reserve talent pool of the main army, and the expansion of the main army in the future will only be selected from the own armed forces of each village.
For the time being, the armed forces built by each village will also be organized as regiments, and each village can have a regimental strength. As for when it will be expanded in the future. It also has to be decided according to the number of mercenaries in the territory, after all, the armed forces of these villages, in addition to being responsible for cleaning up the surrounding demonic beasts, also have to maintain the safety and stability of the entire territory.
For those in the realm who don't want to be too constrained, but want to pursue a career in combat, becoming a mercenary is the best option for them. For these people, Cheng Yang will not stop them. Because for now, the consumption of mercenaries will be the main source of tax revenue for the villages.
Of course, mercenaries are not absolutely free, as long as they join the territory. Naturally, it is subject to territorial regulations. In addition to paying taxes, there is also a fee for the use of private houses, but so far, there are no surplus houses in any village for mercenaries to use. So for the time being, they only need to pay taxes.
For the farmers in each village, the management is also different. The peasants in the main city were employed. It's not that Cheng Yang doesn't want to do the same to other villages, but there are too many people engaged in the farmer profession now, and with the current salary standard set by Luofeng Village, he needs to pay 1o psionic points per day as a hiring fee.
Now Luofeng Village alone has more than 60,000 farmers, which means that Luofeng Village needs to pay 6o thousand psionic points every day for this.
Of course, this number sounds huge, but it's not a loss-making business. For example, a farmer has 2 acres of land in a first-class farm, and according to the experience of the previous life, if rice is planted, there is almost 1ooo kilograms of harvest per acre. In other words, a farmer can harvest 2ooo kilograms of grain in one season.
According to the current price of grain sold in grocery stores, each kilogram of grain sells for 1 psion, and a farmer can get 2,000 psions in one season. And the remuneration that Cheng Yang needs to spend every quarter is only 12oo points of psionic value, with a surplus of 4o%.
However, this calculation is based on the fact that under normal circumstances, if the price fluctuates, or if the production volume changes due to weather conditions, it will affect the earnings. Relatively speaking, Cheng Yang hired these farmers to work, which is equivalent to helping them take risks.
For those who grow their own grain, they only need to pay 2o% of their income each season as a tax.
This tax is an autonomous tax set by the liege, which is different from the transaction tax automatically collected by the realm, although the tax collected is also used as the province's psionic value, but it has a great degree of freedom.
Not only did these free peasants have to pay taxes, but so did the mercenaries. However, unlike farmers who pay taxes according to the harvest, mercenaries are taxed according to capitation, according to the current regulations of Luofeng Village, every mercenary attached to the territory of Luofeng Village needs to pay 1 point of psionic energy as a tax every day, and the tax is doubled for each small rank of strength.
Relatively speaking, this tax ratio is definitely much higher than that in the main city, because at present, many power leaders who control the main city can settle down in the main city by paying 1 point of psionic energy every four or five days.
From this point of view, the tax on mercenaries is lower than that of peasants, but in reality this is not the case. First mercenaries belong to a profession with a lot of consumption, whether it is to buy potions or repair equipment, they need to consume psionic value, and the psionic value they consume will create zĂ o taxes for the territory, relatively speaking, the tax income contributed by a mercenary is slightly higher than that of farmers.
In addition, due to the rapid increase in the population of each village, the previous village management model is no longer suitable for the current needs. According to the decision of the meeting, Cai Tiancheng, deputy head of Xianghe Village, and Liu Chengen, deputy head of Dongshan Village, were separated from the battle sequence and served as full-time deputy village heads. At the same time, the management system of the village should also be built as much as possible.
At present, whether it is Luofeng Village, the central village, or the other four villages attached to the station, in addition to the village administrative leadership team headed by the deputy village head, it is also divided into various departments, namely the Department of Household Administration, the Department of Defense, the Department of Civil Affairs, and the Department of Finance and Taxation.
Literally, it can be understood that the Department of Household Affairs is to manage various matters such as naturalization and job assignment; In addition, the Ministry of Defense is responsible for the formation, mobilization and task arrangement of the local army, in addition to the temporary responsibility of law and order in the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Defense, and implements relevant penalties for those who violate the rules of the territory; The Department of Civil Affairs manages matters related to life and occupation, as well as construction matters. In fact, according to Cheng Yang's plan, the Construction Department was directly made a department, but considering that the current construction task is not too heavy, it was first merged under the Civil Affairs Department; As for the final finance and taxation department, it is even simpler, it is responsible for the collection of taxes and the distribution of materials and psionic value.
The organization of each village is the division, and Luofeng Village, as the central village, belongs to the brain organ of the entire territory, in addition to the set of teams needed for the operation of Luofeng Village itself, it also needs a set of teams to manage the entire territory, and the institutional title of this team is the department.
Li Wanshan is now known as the deputy head of Luofeng Village, but in fact he is also the person in charge of government affairs in Luofeng Village's territory.
The subordinate stations, including Luofeng Village's own management organization, Cheng Yang didn't worry about it, but as the team of the entire territory, Cheng Yang had to spend some brains. For the time being, the heads of the other three departments have not yet been appointed, except for the Ministry of Defense, which is relatively easy to find suitable personnel to fill in. However, Cheng Yang also has a way, and directly let Li Wanshan go to the people to select suitable talents and serve as the director of each village and the deputy minister of the territorial department. After a period of observation, a suitable person will be selected to serve as a minister.
The person in charge of the military department, Cheng Yang selected Huang Yinghua, the deputy commander of the Snow Leopard Battalion, this Huang Yinghua is a soldier with A-level talent, an officer who has retired from the army, his ability is very good, and he is also very upright.
Although the responsibility of the military department is only to manage the local armed forces in the villages of the territory, the actual power is still very large. Considering the balance of power, Cheng Yang demanded that any cross-jurisdictional transfer of troops in the Ministry of Military Affairs must be signed by Cheng Yang or more than half of the members of the Military Yuan.
Speaking of the Military Academy, we have to say that the highest authority of the territory is formed, and Cheng Yang is naturally the supreme leader of the entire territory, which is undisputed. And under Cheng Yang, there are the Government Council and the Military Yuan. The top administrator of the Government Council is Li Wanshan, and within the scope of his authority, he has direct decision-making power. As for the Military Yuan, Cheng Yang personally served as the chairman of the Military Yuan, and the members of the Military Yuan were composed of the captains of the five main war groups and the heads of the Military Department.
However, the current Military Yuan, like the Government Affairs Yuan, is only a simple structure, and in the future, the Military Yuan itself will set up some non-combat departments, such as special agencies responsible for logistics, personnel and other work.
The departmental institutions have been formed, but now they are basically empty shelves, so next, the busiest is the household affairs department, because they are responsible for the naturalization and career distribution of personnel, and they know best what special abilities they have. Fortunately, although there is no person in charge of the household administration department now, Li Wanshan has led a group of people to register the territory personnel before, and there are many people who are more familiar with this aspect of the business, at least for the time being, they can push the work away.
After the meeting, everyone went about their own business. At present, both the people of the Government Council and the Military Yuan are not idle, and the people of the Government Council need to straighten out the affairs and enrich the organization, while the people of the Military Yuan urgently need to expand the personnel of their army because the main war group has just been expanded.
