"Spread my will, all disaster-stricken areas will be exempted from tax for one year this year, and local governments will not delay in opening warehouses for disaster relief, but those who derelict their duties will be severely punished! Strictly investigate the businessmen who want to make a fortune by taking advantage of the disaster, and once it is verified, they will be beheaded all over the house! ”

"The ministers obey."

In Yang Yiqing's life, he has experienced more than one or two natural disasters, but there has never been one such anomaly as this catastrophe.

For the people, locust plagues and droughts are at most no harvest, but if there are earthquakes and floods, it means that the homes are destroyed and the dead are not counted!

However, every major natural disaster is destined to displace countless people, and in order to survive, they can only become homeless, begging all the way, and most of them die on the way.

This rainstorm lasted for more than half a month, and disasters continued to occur in various places, but there were not many displaced people in the capital!

You must know that once the tide of displaced people is formed, then the two capitals will inevitably bear the brunt, and then tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of disaster victims will staggering towards the two capitals, because the two capitals gather dignitaries, whether it is for a reputation or for political achievements, they will open porridge sheds, have a bite to eat, as long as they can not starve to death, then they can return to their hometowns to rebuild their homes after the disaster, and there is still a way to live.

But this time, the flood that swept half of the Ming Dynasty did not break out into a wave of displaced people, which really made the officialdom of the capital who had been prepared for disaster relief and even felt incredible as if it were facing a great enemy.

"This catastrophe can be controlled so quickly, completely depends on the efforts of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in various military regions to fight the disaster, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were swept away by the flood, some fell in the mud, and some died because of excessive fatigue, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty's benevolence is sown in all directions." Yang Yi said clearly: "Therefore, the soldiers use their lives, although they die, they do not regret it."

"It's official." Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "I believe that this problem has also troubled the princes for a long time, you are thinking, before the army is reorganized, why are it not uncommon for soldiers to ignore the lives of the people, and even cruel people and abuse of the people.

In the long run, how can the people have a good impression of the army, and even among the people, the army is a group of fierce gods and evil spirits, so that they are useless to deal with thieves and robbers, but they can aim their swords and guns at the people It is a good hand.

Don't say millions of such soldiers, even if they are tens of millions, what is the use?

I abolished the guard system, and you Aiqing disagreed, thinking that Emperor Taizu's policy of raising millions of male soldiers without spending money and food on the court was so far-sighted.

It's a pity that Emperor Taizu would have expected that the army of the Ming Guard would be eroded to such an extent a hundred years later!

Emperor Taizu wants soldiers, an army that can go to the battlefield and protect the place, Taizu has a spirit in the sky, if he knows that the army of the guard is so corrupted, and knows that the male soldier he expects has become a farmer and a bear, he doesn't know how sad it will be.

In my eyes, a soldier is a soldier, and an army is an army! The soldiers are expensive in the fine but not in the many, the anti-thieves in the last years of the dynasty, the anti-army is often tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands, but when they encounter elite soldiers, they will be crushed for thousands of miles with one blow!

What is the use of such an army, if the money and food of the imperial court can support a million out of production army, it will raise one million, and if it can only raise 200,000, it will only raise 200,000!

There are so many troops on the surface, but less than one out of ten can really fight, what's the use!

I reorganized the forbidden army, the border army and the Tianxia Guard, set up the Shence Army to garrison the border, established the Tiance Army to garrison the world, and established the Tiance Second Army to defend the capital.

However, at present, the major military regions have implemented a compulsory military system, with each military region having 30,000 troops, and it is precisely by relying on the military strength of various localities that the losses caused by this catastrophe have been minimized.

Compulsory enlisted soldiers have received complete military training, so that after being discharged from the army, they can strengthen their patrol and security forces in prefectures and even counties and townships.

Maybe the princes will still question it, saying that if these discharged soldiers are instigated, then they will form an extremely powerful combat force, and then endanger the country.

But I can only tell you that you are thinking too much......

Every qualified soldier receives systematic military education in the barracks, including but not limited to patriotic education, national righteousness education, and loyal monarch ideological education, they know that they are soldiers, and they are proud of being soldiers!

They know more clearly what mission they are carrying, and they understand what their responsibilities as soldiers are, which is to expand the territory, to protect the Ming Dynasty, and to protect the people, because they are my army, the guardian saint of the people, and the children of the people!

Therefore, the worries of the princes are purely superfluous, and you can even rejoice that these soldiers who have been discharged after receiving the education of the new army, they will always be soldiers if they have been soldiers, even if they are engaged in all walks of life after they are discharged from the army, but as long as the country is in war, they will be called back!

This is the true meaning of being able to raise millions of male soldiers without spending a penny of food in the imperial court, you Aiqing can understand! ”

"Ministers are taught!"

"The words teachable, my ears are about to become calloused." Zhu Houwei snorted coldly: "I haven't thought about teaching you anything, you have read the sage books all your life, and the subtle words and righteousness are much better than what I want to learn, and you are all the top readers of the Ming Dynasty, I just let you Aiqing know, don't use your old eyes to look at the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty in the future."

They are not inferior, they will become the patron saints in the hearts of the people in the future, they are the most admirable and lovable people! ”

This time, the ministers were silent.

"The cabinet sent a message to the governments of the disaster-stricken areas, asking all localities to do a good job in post-disaster reconstruction affairs, and the expenses should be paid by the local finances in advance, and if there is a shortfall, the Ministry of Finance will allocate and supply, and the officials of any department dare to use the disaster to fill their own pockets and behead!"

"The ministers obey."

Zhu Houwei waved his hand, and the eunuch on duty shouted at the top of his voice: "Retreat!"

Zhu Houwei was very satisfied with the fact that the military districts in various localities had indeed sent troops to control the disaster, and with this matter, as long as the army could not disturb the people and not abuse the people, then the army would soon be accepted and recognized by the people all over the world.

This is his ultimate goal, in Zhu Houwei's view, the soldiers themselves come from the people, but in the end they are rejected or even disgusted by the people, which is the biggest joke in itself.

In today's era, most people are kind and simple, their requirements are very low, and they are more willing to choose to believe and accept.

This is the same reason that he used commodities to promote the issuance of paper money in the people, and when credit is established, the people will naturally accept it.

The same is true of the army, if you want the people to recognize it, you must let the people know that the current army is indeed serving the people, and for this reason, you can not hesitate to sacrifice it, regardless of honor and disgrace!
