Chapter 42 Millions of military households, food and clothing

Hearing that a group of people, regardless of civil and military, all shouted to kill Xie Jin, Xu Jingchang's heart was like blowing a song of a hundred birds and a phoenix, happy!

It seems that I am not the only one who is hated, Xie Jin has also fallen into this pit.

Such a good play is really rare, I'll just take a handful of fried pine nuts next time.

Xu Jingchang was dedicated to watching the play, but others did not have his calmness, and the important ministers of the court shouted to kill Xie Jin, and Zhu Di called Xie Jin.

Ask about recruitment.

When Xie Jin heard this, he was also stunned, it was really beyond his expectations, but Xie Jin was not afraid at all, he, a talented man who was famous all over the world, spoke sharply, and there was no difficulty in fighting the ministers alone.

"Back to Your Majesty's words, the minister's proposal to recruit troops is after careful consideration, and it is by no means a mouthful, and I also ask Your Majesty to learn from it."

Zhu Di nodded, "Since that's the case, you can talk about it." ”

"Yes!"

After Xie Jin agreed, he cleared his throat and said loudly: "The military family fled, and there were not enough soldiers in the guards, which was the case in the last years of Hongwu. In the fourth year of Jingnan, more than 100,000 soldiers and horses were mobilized from Beiping, Daning and other places, and as for the soldiers from all over the south, more troops were mobilized. In the past four years, countless soldiers have died on the battlefield, and countless people have fled, and at this time, the guards in various parts of the Central Plains have become useless, and the soldiers and soldiers cannot be drawn out at all. In this case, why can't you propose to recruit soldiers? ”

Xie Jin talked eloquently, Xu Jingchang had a smile on his face, of course he knew these things, but this was nothing, Xungui didn't agree at all.

Zhu Neng was in charge of dealing with North Korea, so he was not there, and Qiu Fu carried the banner of opposition.

"Bachelor Xie, you are talking nonsense, the soldiers and soldiers are all loyal and brave people, since Emperor Taizu, they have been loyal to the country, killing the enemy before the battle, fathers, sons and brothers, all fighting for the country. You are now going to recruit soldiers, good men are not soldiers, you are recruiting nothing more than rascals, bastards and outlaws on the street...... When these people enter the army, won't my Ming Xiongbing become a thief with an army? Do you want Daming to learn from Zhao Song? ”

Qiu Fu is full of firepower, and this lethality is really not low.

Xia Yuanji, the head of the household department, also stood up, "Your Majesty, Emperor Taizu raised millions of soldiers, and he did not spend the imperial court on grain and rice, all of which were the work of the military households in Tuntian. Now Bachelor Xie is actually going to recruit soldiers...... Where does the money come from? Is the recruited soldier to be granted land? Are they military or civilian? If you are a citizen and unfortunately injured and killed in battle, how should you be compensated? Do they need to be like a military household, and then send a soldier from home? ”

Xia Yuanji asked sharply, "Bachelor Xie, do you have a strategy to deal with these things?" ”

Xie Jin was speechless for a while, and could only say: "These things can be discussed in the same way, and there is nothing difficult to solve." ”

Before his words fell, Liu Jun, who had just taken over as the secretary of the Ministry of War, couldn't hold it back, "Your Majesty, Xie Jin is corrupt and corrupt, he doesn't know the importance of the government, and he is trying to change the ancestral system and disturb the morale of the army. Before His Majesty entered Beijing, this person had made an appointment to martyr the country, but only Wang Gen died, Xie Jintian was shameless, and he has survived to this day, but he has bewitched the saint and corrupted the law of the country. Like such a villain, the minister is unwilling to set up a court with him. ”

While speaking, this military secretary actually raised his fist and was about to pounce, wanting to stage the traditional art of the Ming Dynasty, and hoe rape at the beginning!

Seeing that the military department has done it, the rest of the princes are not polite, such a good opportunity must not be given up.

Xu Jingchang was watching a play, but seeing that the literary drama was going to become a martial arts drama, it didn't seem to be a good thing to kill people.

And it seems that he still started this matter, and it's not good to make a big fuss.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Xie is a counselor of the General Political Department, I was overlooked for a while, and the discussion of recruiting troops did not come out of the General Political Department, and I hope that the big guy will be aware of it."

Xu Jingchang stepped forward to protect Xie Jin.

Liu Jun was stunned for a moment, his predecessor fell into Xu Jingchang's hands, where did he dare to be rampant.

"Xu Tongzheng, you, you won't shelter the traitor, right?"

"Don't dare." Xu Jingchang said: "The general situation of the General Administration Department is only responsible for accessing government affairs, and will not formulate major strategies without authorization, and even if there is, it must communicate with various ministries and government offices in advance. There is such a big controversy, and it will never come out. This is mainly due to my lax restraints, and I am willing to be punished if the officials under my command make mistakes. ”

After speaking, Xu Jingchang turned around and said to Zhu Di: "Your Majesty, please resign from the title of crown prince, and the meeting of the General Administration Department will no longer be presided over by the minister in the future, and I hope that Your Majesty will approve it." ”

Zhu Di was stunned, Xu Jingchang took all the mistakes and took the initiative to ask for punishment, which made Zhu Di puzzled.

What tricks does this kid play?

"Xu Jingchang, I just thought about it, and it doesn't seem that recruiting soldiers is useless, what do you think about this?"

Xu Jingchang was shocked, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "Back to Your Majesty's words, millions of military households are tied to food and clothing, and they cannot be changed lightly. ”

Zhu Di frowned, and couldn't help muttering: "Millions of military households, millions of military households!" ”

He finally nodded and sighed, "Okay, this matter is not discussed, let's retreat." ”

Everyone retreated one after another, but Xie Jin was embarrassed, and his face changed again and again...... Before Zhu Di entered Beijing, he and a few friends shouted that they were going to die for the country, but they turned around and went to meet the new monarch.

This is a disease in Xie Jin's heart, for fear of being poked out.

As a result, Liu Jun was executed in public, and he was scolded as a traitor, which really tore off the face of this talented man.

If it weren't for Xu Jingchang's protection, maybe he would have to take an old punch, which is really embarrassing.

"Xu Tongzheng, I have something to say." Xie Jin caught up with Xu Jingchang in a few steps, and said in a low voice: "After the Jingjing, a large number of young people were displaced from various places, and most of them were people fleeing from the famine, gathered in various cities, chaotic, and had nothing to do. Isn't it a good thing to recruit soldiers for military purposes? The lower official had only proposed it in the General Administration Department, and it would have caused such opposition from the courtiers, and the lower official was really wronged......"

Xu Jingchang didn't wait for him to finish, so he waved his hand to stop him.

"Master Xie, do you have flowers in your home?"

Xie Jin was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "I planted some camellia trees." ”

"Okay, you can go home and take care of the garden now, I'll give you a vacation, and I'll talk about it when the limelight is over."

After saying this, Xu Jingchang was unceremonious, turned around and left, leaving Xie Jin, alone in the wind...... What's wrong with him?

The next day, Xu Jingchang arrived at the General Administration Department again, and as soon as he arrived, the three university scholars led by Yang Rong stood in a row, just like elementary school students.

"Okay, let's also discuss, the four-year Jingjing disaster, which has caused so many people to be displaced, the military households collapsed, and many idle young people in the city, how to deal with it, in order to be foolproof and have the best of both worlds."

After Xu Jingchang finished speaking, he looked at Yang Rong, Hu Guang, and Yang Shiqi.

The three men looked at each other, and none of them dared to speak.

Xu Jingchang smiled, "Master Hu, if I'm not mistaken, that night, it was you who drank with Xie Jin and Wang Gen, right?" ”

Hu Guang's old face turned red, and he didn't dare to deny it, so he could only say: "That's a momentary drunken talk from a lower official, just a drunken talk." ”

Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "It's not in the way, people must be loyal, but they must also see the general trend clearly, don't mess up the dignity and humility, break the rules, if you can do this, you can still use it, and you can even entrust it to big things, what do you think of the two Yang bachelors?" ”

After a pause, Yang Shiqi immediately moved forward, "What Xu Tongzheng said is extremely true, and the general administration department should obey orders, and the horse is the first to look forward." All obeyed the orders of the envoys. ”

A faint smile appeared on Xu Jingchang's face, "We all act in accordance with the rules of the imperial court, one person counts the short, two counts the long, and the three stinkers are Zhuge Liang." When you encounter things in the future, don't be smart, and discuss everything together, don't you say? ”

The three of them nodded hurriedly, "Yes, the envoy of the government is taught." ”

Xu Jingchang smiled again: "Actually, let me say that the idea of recruiting soldiers is not wrong, but there is always an ancestral system in the way." At present, it is to prepare for going to the West, supervise the construction of military ships, and purchase merchant goods...... If we can draw up a proper charter and do a good job of going to the West, increase the income of the imperial court, and reduce the idlers on the street, we can get more in one fell swoop, and weigh it up and down, this is the virtuous minister of the old Cheng Mouguo, don't you say? ”

Several people looked at each other, bowed down and praised: "The general political envoy is high!" ”
