310 Troops

On the eighth day of the lunar month, Lin Jianyue carried out a huge campaign to pacify the army in Baozhou.

During the entire Northern Expedition, the number of casualties was very huge, although Xuntian Xunwu was not issued for the time being, but the bereavement reward was indispensable, and Liu Bingyun took a large group of people to figure it out for several months.

Due to the temporary overconcentration of the population, there was a kind of abnormal prosperity in Baozhou, the army lived outside the city, and the city of Baozhou was almost uninhabitable.

Lin Jianyue knew that it was time to enter the capital.

During this time, Lin Jianyue did not do nothing in Baozhou, but was thinking about reorganizing the army and forming an army academy.

For a long time, it was actually Lin Jianyue who controlled the army independently, and with the continuous expansion of the size of the army, it was already a little powerless, and after ascending the throne, it was even more impossible to control, and the focus will also shift from conquest to internal affairs, and the establishment of the imperial military system is imminent.

Lin Jianyue recalled the military system of the Ming Dynasty in the history of the dream, although it was not very clear, he still knew it.

The Ming Dynasty adopted the law of guarding the military guard, that is, establishing the guard post in the whole country, controlling the key points, and the central government abolished the Privy Council and changed it to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, which was the highest military organ to control the military status of the national guard, and had the right to command the army but not the right to send troops. The power to send troops, such as conscription, suppression, and training, was held by the Ministry of War, and the army was transferred by the emperor's decree, and the generals were appointed, and the generals were appointed to lead the army, and the seals were returned. This separation of the right to command the army and the right to send troops is very reasonable, even in modern times, it is still done in this way, which shows that this method is very correct and reasonable, and it can also ensure that the emperor is in charge of military power and centralized power. However, the system of not specializing in the army and not private generals will greatly weaken the combat effectiveness of the troops, and the initial stage is fine, but the longer the time, the worse the combat effectiveness, and then there will be no way to see it, how can Lin Jianyue do this? Thousands of generations can't do it, but before the arrival of the industrial age, he doesn't want the Chinese nation to be weak and up-and-down, he wants to be strong all the time, always strong, even if it is not his Lin dynasty in the future, so he has to learn from some lessons and lessons of later generations.

The army of the Ming Dynasty is divided into two parts: the Beijing army and the local army, the Beijing army is the elite of the national guard, and the Beijing division is the main force of the conquest in peacetime; The local army is the ordinary guard, the border army and the militia, which are similar to the current garrisons of various roads, states and prefectures. The Beijing army and the local armies all practice the guard army system.

In the early days of the Ming Dynasty, the Weijun system played a huge role, maintaining a huge army in the era of low productivity, and well maintaining the centralization and imperial rule, but it was completely impossible after the middle and late periods, because the Weijun was not a full-time professional soldier, and the military households also had to supplement the military food to maintain their livelihood, and the standing soldiers only accounted for two or three percent. But this person can't control himself in the face of interests, and the fields and properties of many military households have been constantly occupied by the gentry generals and colonels for a long time, and their lives have not been settled, and their combat effectiveness can be imagined.

Lin Jianyue will not do it in the guard, he wants professional soldiers, professional main troops, but the cost of raising troops to maintain a huge army is terrifying, and the current economic model cannot support it, which is why Lin Jianyue planned to open the sea very early, and also set the policy of constantly expanding the territory and colonizing foreign races.

It is not good to know the soldiers, but if you know the soldiers, you will be private, and you will form a military group with a big tail, with a knife in your hand, even if the military and the government are separated, the country is large, the transportation is inconvenient, and the rebellion is still uncontrollable, and then the emperor has no ability to do nothing, it will be dangerous.

What to do? Lin Jianyue has two methods, the navy has already implemented them, and the army will also implement them, that is, to continue to establish army military academies, to receive patriotic brainwashing education before leading the army, and to gradually replace the middle and lower-level core generals in the whole army. However, senior generals and commanders of various army corps pay attention to their term of office, and they must not be in the same unit or branch of the same service for more than 10 years, and it is best to rotate every five years. If you are particularly powerful, you will be promoted to the central government, and in the event of a big war and a difficult battle, you will receive an order from the emperor and the military department to temporarily go out to lead the army, and return to Beijing after the battle, and continue to enjoy the life of a glorious and rich man.

And the military department is controlled by the literati, and both the literati and the military department are controlled by the emperor, Lin Jianyue did not expect his children and grandchildren to be able to fight like him, of course, he can fight the best, and if he can't fight, he must first learn to control people, control the government, and control the military academy, so as to ensure that the core power is in his own hands.

Lin Jianyue knew that in order to keep the empire invincible in the world forever, the current advanced armor weapons and bows and crossbows would not be long ahead, and the eventual popularization of firearms was an inevitable choice for history and human processes.

Lin Jianyue specially sent the Zhenfu Division to organize a department to the whole country and the world to understand, and was surprised to find that there is really no outside now, but this Ning Dynasty actually has it, but unfortunately it is made of hard bamboo tubes, and this gunpowder is the black powder used in fireworks, the power cannot be said, not to mention that you can't kill people, and you have to turn yourself over if you accidentally do it, so naturally no one pays attention to it. But Lin Jianyue knew that the direction was right, although he didn't know how to make a metal tube, how to shoot it, and how to make more powerful gunpowder, but as long as he started to pay attention to it, with the wisdom and ingenuity of the Chinese people who could have the four major inventions, he would eventually come up first, but he himself might not be able to see it.

Lin Jianyue roughly talked about his ideas with Wang Gui, Qin Zhenghao, Liu Bingyun and the generals of all parties, and no one objected, which completely changed the military system of the previous Ning Dynasty.

Lin Jianyue is not very clear, they are already surprised to be able to come up with so many things by themselves, they can only think that Lin Jianyue is worthy of being a person of destiny, what opinions and thoughts can he have for a while? And what the army did all the time was decided by Lin Jianyue, and he didn't seem to have the courage to oppose it.

There is another reason why Lin Jianyue knows that the empire is about to be established, and most of their minds are focused on the identity and power position they are about to determine, which is also the first test for Lin Jianyue.

Lin Jianyue has a general idea of the military system, and Lin Jianyue is a lot more relaxed, but he still doesn't have a clue about how to deal with the civilian system, no matter when the world is governed, it is necessary to rely on these people, and if the literati group is not well controlled, there will be big problems. Let's not talk about whether the world will be chaotic, and the imperial power will be hollowed out by accident, such as the middle and late Ming Dynasty and Ming Dynasty. But they can't all be turned into minions like the Qing Dynasty.

Lin Jianyue didn't ask Wang Gui and Liu Bingyun about this matter, but asked Qin Zhenghao to make a shelf first.

Lin Jianyue was a little ashamed, in this situation, Qin Zhenghao is a lonely minister, and it is precisely the lonely minister who is the best use.
