Chapter 64 Policy Framework
"With the vast majority of the forces of the local wealthy families in Taishan County swept away by us, I feel that we urgently need to deal with our current three problems now!" Liu Tai looked at Chu Yu coming over, and said straight to the point.
"General Liu, please!" Chu Yu said very respectfully.
Liu Tai said at this moment: "First of all, there is the contradiction between limited land resources and a large number of meritorious soldiers.
The second is the contradiction between the idea of slave soldiers and the idea of reviving the Han dynasty.
and the contradiction between the land-owning Xuzhou soldiers and the landless old soldiers.
How, what are your thoughts? ”
Chu Yu was called by Liu Tai, and he was still thinking about what Liu Tai was looking for him.
But he didn't expect Liu Tai to ask such three questions as soon as he opened his mouth, which made Chu Yi stunned, and his mind didn't even turn a corner.
Liu Tai also waited patiently for a while, and Chu Yu said one by one:
"Returning to the general, the contradiction between the land-owning Xuzhou people and the landless old soldiers is easy to solve.
It's not that they don't want land, it's that they don't have family to cultivate it.
Therefore, the female slaves obtained from these wealthy families were allowed to be rationed to the soldiers, and when they got married, their land was cultivated by healthy women, and naturally we had a greater sense of belonging. ”
"This is a way to help the soldiers start a family......" Liu Tai heard Chu Yi's words and nodded thoughtfully!
"As for the servant soldiers you mentioned, I don't think they have any idea of restoring the Han family or defending the Jin court.
They are slaves to other wealthy families, and they are slaves like us, and there will be no disloyalty! ”
Chu Yu listened to Liu Tai's words and didn't understand, to be honest, he didn't think there was anything wrong with using these people.
When Liu Tai heard this, he looked at Chu Yi deeply, but he was a little helpless.
This guy came from a high-class family in the Jin court, and he would not have any objection to the use of slaves at all, and even took it for granted.
Chu Yi looked at Liu Tai's helpless look, but he obviously understood that he had lost points in his answer.
But Chu Yi is a really capable person in the end, especially when he encounters problems, he can always find a solution.
At this moment, Chu Yu said: "In fact, you can manage them in the way of military training.
Although they were born as slaves, it is impossible to say that they did not want to live a happy life with enough food and clothing.
Even if they don't seem to you to be suitable warriors, they can be managed in the way of a legion.
After all, when Emperor Wu of Wei came to manage the Qingzhou soldiers, didn't they all manage them in the way of military tuns! ”
Cao Cao's tuntian system was not implemented for a long time, and for Chu Yu, although he didn't know what Liu Tai expected of these slave soldiers, he just wanted to manage them, and if he looked for a case to find a solution after all!
That's the benefit of a long history, and if you look around historically, you'll always find some plausible solution.
It's a big deal to tinker with it a little bit and transform it into a system that suits the environment.
To be honest, any policy ultimately depends on the resources in the hands of the rulers and the strength of their implementation, and any system is only a way to allocate resources effectively.
"Tuntian system ......" Liu Tai heard Chu Yi's words thoughtfully, in Liu Tai's view, the Tuntian system was a wartime system that Cao Cao came up with to expand the tax base and plunder the wealth of the people.
In this kind of system, when there is a war everywhere, the people can naturally endure any hardship in order to survive.
After all, being alive is the most important and greatest thing.
But when the environment is relatively peaceful, the government is seriously exploited, and the people feel hopeless to continue to work, so they naturally resist this system.
Of course, the biggest reason why the tuntian system will be resisted by the scholars should be that the tuntian system itself has gathered many people who were not originally on the hukou and re-registered them in the local hukou.
To some extent, Cao Cao not only occupied the land of the scholars, but also absorbed the hidden population of the scholars.
This system was naturally abandoned by the scholars who gradually grew in Cao Wei, and then the Jin court of the scholar dynasty even proposed the land occupation system, a new system that helped the scholars to occupy land and hide the population.
Under the land occupation system, it is a confusing question of how much land and population were occupied by the gentry.
"As for the contradiction between the limited land resources you said and the sudden increase in a large population, it's really embarrassing~" Chu Yi complained, and then said,
"In fact, it is the simplest, Gou Xi in Qingzhou, so much land is definitely enough to divide Qingzhou.
If you lose...... Liu Huben: You definitely won't lose! ”
Liu Tai couldn't help but press his temples when he heard Chu Miao's words, I have to say, don't ask Chu Miao's solutions if they are in line with their own wishes, but they are definitely the solutions that can solve the problem!
It is undeniable that these have also given me considerable reference significance, and it was more or less a shame to deal with this matter by myself.
The head is full of modern tyrants, dividing the fields, and then continuing to fight the tyrants, continuing to divide the fields, and continuing to cycle indefinitely, until the world is completely divided into fields.
"We need to build an institutional framework to address this set of issues!" Liu Tai pressed his head and said seriously,
"I'll supplement it with your thoughts, and you can take it back and refine it, and then I'll hand it over to you to deal with?"
"My thoughts......" Chu Yu looked at Liu Tai suspiciously, but still nodded, "General Liu, please speak." ”
Liu Tai said decisively: "First of all, because the land in our hands is limited, or I think that giving all the land to the Xuzhou soldiers is an irresponsible act in itself.
So this time we're going to give 2,000 soldiers, no! One thousand Xuzhou soldiers divided the land.
It means that as long as there are military exploits, you can get land. ”
"50,000 acres of land......" Chu Yu calculated the number of land, and immediately understood Liu Tai's deduction for land.
It's really easy to motivate people to join the army with land, but not everywhere there is land for farming.
What's more important is that if this gives too much arable land, I am afraid that soon Liu Tai will be forced to continue the war due to the insufficient amount of arable land.
"Then, as you say, arrange marriages for the soldiers who have been following you, and settle the major events of their lives.
Especially if he is over the age of thirty, he can even arrange for him to settle down in Taishan County and grant him land.
I can also arrange for them to do some simple law and order work in the local area. Liu Tai said calmly.
"Huh? My lord, are you going to get rid of the soldiers? Chu Yu couldn't help but say when he heard Liu Tai's words.
"The soldiers were not dismissed, but these retired veterans were used to assist in the training of the soldiers who had arable land in Taishan County.
Then the best of the government soldiers will be selected to join our Tiger Army, which is officially out to fight. Liu Tai said slowly.
"Can you give it a try?!" Chu Yi nodded thoughtfully when he heard Liu Tai's words.
Speaking of which, the soldiers are also slightly classified, and the soldiers who have fields in Xuzhou will be arranged to become government soldiers, and they are also local county soldiers, mainly responsible for the maintenance of local security, defending the city and other original work of the original county soldiers.
Because they have a local industry, and those who have permanent production have perseverance, at least they are more willing to maintain local order than others! ”
Liu Tai pondered and continued, "And the soldiers who did not get the field will continue to be incorporated into the regular sequence of our army.
They will enjoy the benefits of the army, such as three meals, clothing, and knowledge, and more importantly, the soldiers will need to start distributing food as their salary.
Let these people make it their job to be a soldier and encourage them to hone their military skills!
In the future, when the land is conquered, a part of the captured land will be given to the good soldiers. ”
"How similar is this to Wei Wushu?" When Chu Yu heard Liu Tai's words, he said thoughtfully, "However, although the recruitment system to raise soldiers can achieve that the trained soldiers are quite elite, it is quite difficult to feed them!" ”
Liu Tai nodded, the most troublesome thing about the recruitment system is often to give money to be invincible in the world, and it means not to give money three shots, which can be regarded as worthy of the emperor.
But at least in the early days, as long as the rewards were sufficient, the conscription system itself was not a problem, after all, they were professional soldiers.
"I'll figure out a way to raise soldiers, at least we won this war and captured a large amount of food and materials from the wealthy clan in Taishan County, so we don't need to worry about these problems in a short time!" Liu Tai said.
If it weren't for such a large income, Liu Tai wouldn't dare to design like this.
As for what to do in the future, after having his own territory, Liu Tai feels that he can always think of a way.
Chu Yu could only nod, but felt that after he went back, he needed to think about what to do.
Liu Tai continued, "We carry out military tuning, but our military tun is different from the previous military tun.
We selected the best of the slaves to carry out the cantonment, and the results of the work belonged to the entire army, and after leaving enough food and clothing for the slaves, all the rest were handed over to us.
At least in this cantonment, we need to keep them alive, but only alive! ”
"This ......" Chu Yu was a little incredulous when he heard Liu Tai's words, this is completely different from his attitude towards other people.
"Of course, because it is a unified military cantonment, it is convenient for us to manage.
In the future, whether it is military history or veterans after being discharged from the army, they will be arranged to these military cantonments one after another.
Let them know that they can either study hard to become a minor official of the imperial court and assist us in grassroots management.
Either join the army, be selected to become a warrior in the army, and then get your own land, and even be knighted! ”
Chu Yu listened to Liu Tai's words, but he was a little dazed, because he didn't understand what Liu Tai wanted to do.
If you want to be kind to these slaves, you don't need to let them live in such a cruel collective house system.
If you want to completely stop treating them as human beings, but simply as slaves, then why give them hope and give them a way to rise.
Such a system design is full of incredible!
And Liu Tai knew that because of the establishment of the Shi dynasty, many Shi clans had basically regarded the people at the bottom as human beings, not to mention that they were originally slaves who served them.
Look at the so-called Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the merry and beautiful families basically said that their slaves would be killed if they were killed.
The most typical is Shi Chong's persuasion to kill beauties, for the sons of the family, they really don't treat the people at the bottom as people.
Because in their opinion, they are two completely different species, and maybe they are better than the alien race.
In the same way, the people at the bottom, or those who serve the family, do not see themselves as human beings.
It's like many people in modern times who have emancipated their minds look at Wang Sicong's daily consumption and can't wait to replace him.
And many slaves and people in this era do not feel ashamed that they can be the servants of top families, on the contrary, they feel more honored, and even show off in the environment in which they live.
So many people really hate why they can't be slaves, and even hate those who don't let themselves be slaves!
However, Liu Tai is not a great revolutionary leader, let alone a great ideological teacher, and he is not capable of and cannot achieve the personal liberation of the Han people, and even the productive forces of this era are not allowed to carry out the so-called liberation.
Therefore, what Liu Tai can do is to give up the willingness to help others and respect the lives of others.
If you want to be slaves, then be your own slaves, and if you take the world one day, then you will be slaves to the people of the world.
But if you can awaken your mind, and even want to climb out of the slave class, then Liu Tai also gave them two ways.
One is to study and follow the officials, and the other is to practice martial arts and study.
As for the rest, there are not many roads for the bottom, it is enough to have two.
Even if you are a small-town problem-solver, at least you have left the town, and even some more ambitious ones may be able to give back to the town in the future.
And these children who came out of the collective countryside will also follow this path in the future.
Chu Yi listened to Liu Tai's words, but after a while, he picked up Liu Tai's pen and paper and began to record in detail.
In the end, Liu Tai finished speaking and continued, "Coming here first is just an idea and framework, but if I want to further implement it, I need you to help me fill in and improve the entire framework."
To put it simply, we must have public land in our hands and private land in our hands, so as to increase the enthusiasm of the people as much as possible and make them support our rule in Taishan County.
As for the family, if they are willing to cherish the feather moral heirloom, I will naturally not touch them, and I am even willing to accept them.
But if they don't want to obey my philosophy, then they can only say that they don't want to do anything! ”
"I'll take it back and replenish it." Chu Yi looked at the framework given by Liu Tai, and couldn't help but look carefully and replied.
"Then I'll leave it to you, Mr. Chu." Liu Tai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Chu Yu answer this matter.
And the matter of government affairs, basically, after Liu Tai and Chu Yi finished discussing, they began to spread out tentatively.
The rewards for military exploits, the disposal of prisoners, and the arrangements for the local people were all dealt with one by one under the framework formulated by Liu Tai.
It can be said that Liu Tai and Chu Yu have almost become the busiest people in the entire Taishan County.
Taishan County, which had just experienced the war, gradually became prosperous and lively under the busyness of the two.
