Chapter 82, open the slave gate, and coat the new army

"The Ming army's method of military training, I have also seen it, it is nothing more than strict discipline, orders and prohibitions, and strict queues, this set is not unusual."

Qianlong said.

Nothing unusual, indeed.

Because since ancient times.

To have a strong army, we must train strong soldiers. 、

It's nothing more than these routines.

However, Fukangan shook his head when he heard this, and said: "This is only the surface, and it does not fully explain the reason for the strength of the anti-Ming war. ”

"What else is the reason?"

Fukangan pondered for a moment and said: "One is a generous salary, the second is that everything is fair, and the third is a ladder to the sky. ”

When Qianlong heard this, he pondered for a moment,

"What is a good salary, what is justice in everything, and what is a ladder to the sky?"

Hearing this, Fukangan took a deep breath.

"The so-called generous salary, is the treatment is rich, Zhu Yi returned from Europa, it is said that his Daohua firm is one of the largest trading houses in Europa, and he himself is also a wealthy businessman, so the recruitment of soldiers and horses is very large! It is said that he has a policy of substituting land for salary, and he will be given 10 acres of Ueda when he enters service, and 30 acres will be given after 10 years of service, and he will be rewarded for meritorious service. If you are a soldier for ten years, you can get at least 40 acres of paddy fields! ”

Qianlong gasped when he heard this.

"Where did Zhu Yi get so many fields?"

Fukangan looked at Qianlong, bowed his head and said: "In Guangdong, the main thing is to confiscate the fields and properties of the children of the Eight Banners..."

Qianlong's face froze.

"Contrary to the Ming Dynasty to gather troops with a generous salary, it is no wonder that tens of thousands of elite soldiers can be obtained in a short period of time."

Qianlong said.

"All things are fair, what kind of doorway is this?"

"Holy Lord, if you want to say that the military salary is rich, the soldiers of the Green Battalion are actually not bad... But as far as I know, most of the Green Battalion soldiers receive only a fraction of the salary they receive on the books..."

"Military attachés at all levels are greedy for ink, eat empty quotas, and accumulate arrears of military salaries, so as to become the norm."

Qianlong nodded, but he didn't react much.

Because this was the norm in the Qing Dynasty.

The magistrates of the Qing Dynasty had very few salaries.

If not greedy.

I'm afraid I won't even be able to sustain my life.

So the officials of the Qing Dynasty.

They all have to be greedy.

The system of the Qing Dynasty was a system in which the nobles of the Eight Banners and the Han bureaucrats worked together to squeeze oil and water from tens of thousands of Han people.

If not.

How could the Qing Dynasty get the support of Han scholars?

Eight Banners and Han scholars share the interests of the whole country together.

Only then can the Qing regime be stabilized.

In order to make the Qing Dynasty as solid as a rock.

Even if there is a popular uprising.

The local Han people can be suppressed by practicing bravery.

"Isn't there such a thing?"

Qianlong asked.

"The salaries at all levels of the Ming Dynasty are extremely generous, and when the salaries are paid, they need to post announcements to inform the whole army, and the officers are not responsible for the payment of military salaries, but the logistics department of the army in the Ming Dynasty remits money to each sergeant's account through Daohua Bank."

"In this way, we can put an end to the problem of eating empty salaries and drinking soldiers' blood."

Qianlong League said solemnly.

"That's... What about the ladder? ”

Qianlong asked.

Naturally, he knew what it meant to climb the ladder.

Chao for Tian Shelang, twilight to the Tianzi Hall.

It's a ladder to the sky.

Fukangan sighed.

"This is the biggest difference between us and the Ming Dynasty, whether it is the Green Battalion or the Eight Banners, most of them are hereditary military officers, and the merits are only promoted internally, the Green Battalion can only be a Green Battalion officer, due to the hereditary military attache of the Green Battalion, it is difficult for the soldiers at the bottom to have a chance to rise, and they can only rely on looting or rewarding to motivate morale when they fight, which is naturally inferior to the Ming Dynasty."

"There is an army and navy officer academy in the reverse ming, and soldiers who have been rewarded for meritorious service can be recruited exceptionally and become reserve officers, and they will be rewarded with titles and fields for meritorious service, and the channel for promotion is very smooth."

"Naturally, everyone is fighting to be the first, and the morale is high."

"On the other hand, the Eight Banners and the Green Camp...."

Fukangan did not continue.

But Qianlong understood what he meant.

The military attachés of the Green Battalion and the Eight Banners are mainly hereditary.

There are intermarriages with each other, and the relationship is intertwined.

Basically, it has a monopoly on almost all positions.

The people below are going to come out.

It's harder than climbing to the sky.

Especially on the side of the Green Camp.

Many of the children of Eight Banners can't find an errand in Eight Banners, so they will let the elders in the family participate in activities and be placed in the Green Camp as officials.

So.

The low-level soldiers of the Green Battalion want to get ahead.

It's even more difficult.

If you want to be rewarded immediately, climb up one level at a time.

That's basically unless there's luck against the sky.

Otherwise....

But Qianlong didn't have much to do about it.

Because this problem has been appearing since the time of Kangxi.

When the three feudal clans were leveled, the Eight Banners were not very able to fight.

At that time, it relied on the green camp, and.... A little luck.

Wu Sangui died suddenly, and the situation was reversed.

Otherwise, if Wu Sangui lives for a few more years.

I'm afraid that the Qing Dynasty will have to retreat to Liaodong to live a hard life at that time.

"Holy Lord, this Zhu Daohua is a great enemy that the dynasty has not had for more than a hundred years, it is impossible to exterminate it with the current Green Battalion and Eight Banners alone, and a new army must be established!"

"The New Army? How to form a new army? ”

As soon as Qianlong heard that a new army was to be formed, he frowned.

Fukangan has thought of the methods and dishes he has come up with along the way.

"First of all, we must expand the Eight Banners!"

"Expand the Eight Banners?"

Qianlong's brows furrowed even tighter.

"If there are too many Eight Banners, how can the country afford it."

Qianlong shook his head again and again.

The children of these Eight Banners all have hardcore crops.

to the Qianlong Dynasty.

The hardcore crops of the children of the Eight Banners have already eaten up the finances of the Qing Dynasty.

To relieve stress.

The Qianlong Dynasty had already guessed the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty several times and narrowed the number of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty.

And in order to delay the increase in population within the Eight Banners.

The Qing Dynasty carried out many policies to suppress births.

The first is that the Manchus and the Han cannot intermarry.

The flag man can only marry the flag man.

So.

It is more difficult for many low-level bannermen to find wives - because it is not monogamous now, how can the young women in the Eight Banners first follow the nobles at the top, from the emperor to the iron hat kings to many belles and bebezels, after the selection is completed, it can be the turn of the lower-level bannermen.

So.

Many low-level banner people can't marry wives, and some even if they can marry wives.

The age is generally in their twenties.

It is a policy-related late marriage and late childbearing.

The second is the Eight Banners garrison policy, the strong men of the Eight Banners are all transferred and rotated, leaving them little time to make small Eight Banners at home.

Some of them are unlucky, they are transferred from Beijing to Guangzhou, and they will be stationed for a few years and then go home, so this daughter-in-law will definitely not dare to give birth during this period.

Otherwise, how can this be explained.

So for more than a hundred years.

The population of the Eight Banners of Manchuria only increased to just over one million.

In the past 100 years, the population of the Han people has doubled or tripled.

But even if this is more than a million Manchurian Eight Banners.

The Qing Dynasty was almost unable to afford it.

Now we have to expand the Eight Banners again.

How can this Qing Dynasty withstand it?

"You can recruit the heroes of the northern green camp to enter the Eight Banners to make coatings, and start from coatings."

"Coating?"

"That's right! Just establish a coating army, recruit strong men from the north into the Eight Banners, make coatings, and when the coats are done well and make contributions, they can be carried into the Eight Banners. ”

Fukangan said with his fingers crossed.

"Wrapping, Eight Banners Armor, Vests, Assistants at all levels, generals, and co-leaders. This is a ladder to heaven, which can certainly greatly motivate the morale of the battle. ”

"That's a solution!"

Qianlong felt that what Fukangan said made sense.

Don't think the name is ugly.

In fact, in this Qing Dynasty.

You want to do coating.

I don't have the qualifications yet.

Bao Yi is a noble servant of the Eight Banners at all levels.

For example, He Shen was born in Qianlong's coating.

Being a noble servant of the Eight Banners is definitely an opportunity that many people dream of in the Qing Dynasty.

Now we have to expand the Eight Banners.

Widely recruited coating.

The slave door is wide open.

After meritorious service, he can also turn over from the coat to be the master.

Just think about it.

It's all a little exciting.

Qianlong knew that Fukangan's method could certainly play a role in motivating the coating battle.

But this expansion of the Eight Flags and the recruitment of coatings are not so easy to talk about it.

First things first....

Where does the money come from?

........

"Expand the Eight Banners, recruit coatings? That's a good idea. ”

"The battle of Guangdong shows that the green battalion is unusable, and the Eight Banners are the pillars of the country, so you can't just take it out and fight against the Ming, this trick is a good way to build a new army."

Fukangan's idea, Qianlong also thinks it is very good.

Therefore, Qianlong invited He Shen, Sun Shiyi and others to discuss and discuss.

What kind of charter is this to build a "new army".

First of all, how will this money come from?

"Your Majesty, the slave has just calculated, if you take the new 50,000 new army to calculate, the new 50,000 army, to be equipped with flintlock guns, but also to imitate the reverse Ming flowering bullets, the manufacturing cost of the flintlock pistol is fifty taels of silver, 50,000 guns are two million and a half million taels of silver, the mortar against the Ming is actually a kind of mortar, it is easy to prevent, as long as the barrel is thickened, and then the gun cart is built, although it cannot be carried with the mortar of the reverse Ming, but it can be used to push the cart away, In this case, the cost of a vehicle-mounted mortar will cost 600 taels of shadows, and if it requires 1,000 cannons, it will cost 600,000 taels of silver. ”

Heshen counted the time here.

Qianlong was already frowning.

He Shen looked at Qianlong's face, and continued to count.

"There are also howitzers against the light, the shells are led with wooden supports and intubation tubes, and we can also imitate similar cannons, that is... Even the weight of the cannon is much heavier, but it can also be used, and the cost of such a cannon is 3,000 taels of silver, and it takes 300,000 taels of silver to build a hundred. ”

"In this way, 50,000 new troops will cost 3.4 million taels of silver just for ordnance."

"Counting other expenses, I'm afraid it will start with four million taels of silver."

Four million taels of silver.

This does not take into account the cost of subsequent expansions.

Just 50,000 new troops will cost 4 million.

50,000 new troops are obviously not enough, and if they are to be expanded to 100,000 or 200,000 in the future.

Wouldn't that be doubling the cost?

After the endless coma, Shi Yu suddenly got up from the bed. If you want to watch the latest chapters, please download the Star Reading app and read the latest chapters for free without ads.

He took a big breath of fresh air, and his chest trembled.

Confused, incomprehensible, all kinds of emotions come to my heart.

Where is this?

Then, Shi Yu subconsciously looked around, and then became even more dazed.

A single dormitory?

Even if he had managed to be rescued, he would have been in the ward by now.

And their own bodies...... How could it be that there was no injury at all.

With doubts, Shi Yu's gaze quickly swept from the room, and finally his gaze stayed on a mirror at the head of the bed.

The mirror reflected his current appearance, about seventeen or eighteen years old, and his appearance was very handsome.

But the problem is, it's not him! Download the Star Reading app and read the latest chapters ad-free and free

The previous self was a handsome young man in his twenties who had been working for a while.

And now, no matter how you look at it, this appearance is only the age of a high school student......

This change made Shi Yu stunned for a long time.

Don't tell him that the operation was a success......

The body and face have changed, and this is not a question of surgery or not surgery at all, but immortal magic.

He's a different guy altogether!

Don't...... Did you cross by yourself?

In addition to the mirror at the head of the bed, which was obviously not good in feng shui, Shi Yu also found three books next to it.

Shi Yu picked it up and looked at it, and the title of the book instantly silenced him.

"Essential Animal Breeding Manual for Novice Breeders"

Postpartum Care for Pet Animals

"Alien Beast Ear Girl Evaluation Guide"

Shi Yu: ???

The names of the first two books are quite normal, but what are you doing with the last one?

"Ahem."

Shi Yu's eyes were solemn and he stretched out his hand, but his arm quickly stiffened.

Just as he was about to open the third book to see what it was, his brain stabbed violently, and a flood of memories flooded back.

Icefield City.
