Chapter 706: Today's King Qin is simply not as diligent as King Qin

When everyone saw Li Ke in the court, everyone was stunned.

His Royal Highness King Qin, who said that he would not go to court for two months, is actually going to court?

Seeing Li Ke, Cheng Yanjin couldn't help but raise his head and look at the sky in the distance.

"What do you mean?!" Li Ke asked with a glaring look at him.

"It's okay, I'm just going to see if the sun is still rising in the east today." Cheng Yanjin looked at the fish belly white in the east and said.

"Remember your words." Li Ke sneered and said.

"What's wrong? Your Royal Highness King Qin, you don't want to learn martial arts from the old man, right? Cheng Yanjin laughed twice and said.

"Your Highness, it's not that the old minister looks down on you, you can't beat him in terms of martial arts." Wei Chi Jingde next to him immediately spoke.

"Compete with me, and if you win, I will transfer you to the Tang Baling Peninsula to garrison for three years. Can you beat me? Li Ke said with a sneer.

Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chi Jingde immediately turned pale, bent down and saluted: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin, invincible in the world; Superior in force and proud of the crowd. ”

"Yo, it's kind of rhyming." Li Ke raised his eyebrows and sneered.

"Your Highness, you are joking, where do the old ministers dare to compete with you, they all say that they are afraid of being weak and strong." Cheng Yanjin said quickly.

"Huh." Li Ke chuckled twice.

Li Jing next to them was a little blind, these two old men are too shameless, and the faces of our generals have been lost by you.

"Your Highness, the weather is good today." Fang Xuanling over there couldn't help but speak.

He hasn't finished reading the piece of music that Li Ke gave him, and it is about the content of the split of the six departments, mainly the issue of duplicating powers and increasing the functions of the six departments, and it is estimated that there will be at least a dozen departments after the split.

Today, His Royal Highness actually came to the court again, won't there be anything new? Your Highness, I haven't slept with my wife in my old room for many days.

Li Ke raised his head and looked, well, the sky is clear, and there is already a fish belly white in the east.

"It's pretty good." Li Ke nodded, his face unchanged.

Just kidding, my hard-working men have no choice but to work.

Now that I'm working, can you people be idle? That's actually good, as long as it's busy, as long as everyone has enough things to do, no one has the leisure to intrigue.

Very good.

Everyone looked at each other, and His Highness didn't say anything, this ...... How do you feel that something big is happening today!

When Li Shimin came over, he was not surprised at all when he saw Li Ke, yesterday Li Ke was able to leave the little lady in the Qinglou and run to the industrial zone, which proves that the matter is not small, otherwise he would not have left at all.

Li Ke is here today, which really shows that the matter is not a trivial matter.

After announcing the previous dynasty, Li Shimin spoke: "You Aiqing have something to do and play it directly." ”

Everyone: "......"

Everyone's eyes subconsciously looked at Li Ke, and the meaning of that gaze was one: Your Highness, you came first?

Li Ke was as good as a stream, stood up without changing his face and said: "Father, the son has something to do. ”

Li Shimin was in a trance, good guy, when was the last time Li Ke was so serious?

"Say."

"Yes, Erchen drafted a reform plan yesterday and asked my father to look at it." Li Ke said directly.

"You read it directly, since you have gone to the court, this proves that you must have thought about it, say it directly, and discuss it in the court." Li Shimin said.

"Yes, the plan drafted by Erchen is "Promoting the Reform of the Tang Army to Modernize and Strengthen the Army".

"Father, today my Datang has an unprecedented situation, whether it is from the people, or from the Tang court, or from military weapons and other aspects, my Datang is ahead of all dynasties and generations, and now the Datang army is facing unprecedented challenges, so it is time for us to promote the modernization and reform of the army, make the army more in line with the modern situation, and increase the combat effectiveness of the Datang army." Li Ke said seriously.

As soon as Li Ke's words came out, all the generals present were shocked, which was closely related to them.

And Cheng Yanjin over there couldn't help but glance at each other with Yu Chi Jingde, His Royal Highness ...... I won't be really, I'll laugh at you, and you'll be really, right? Is it too late for me to surrender now?

"Go on, what kind of reform law do you say?"

"The current government military system has been reformed into a compulsory military service system." Li Ke said.

"What is compulsory military service?" Li Shimin looked at Li Ke suspiciously and asked, didn't you talk about the conscription system last time?

"The so-called compulsory military service system is worth saying that all Datang people who have reached the age of eighteen are obliged to join the army to protect their families and defend the country." Li Ke said.

"Isn't this still a government military system?" Cheng Yanjin subconsciously came out with a sentence.

"It's different, the government military system is provided by the soldiers themselves for food and seven things, but in the compulsory military service system, the people only have compulsory service, but all the food, clothing, weapons, armor and other things they serve are provided by the Tang Dynasty! And during the three-year compulsory military service period, there will be an additional allowance of 100 yuan per month. ”

"After three years, if you intend to become a professional soldier, the monthly salary allowance will be increased to 150 wen per month! After the end of the three-year compulsory military service system, a professional soldier will automatically become a squad leader, and all soldiers will have a non-commissioned officer system. ”

"There are seven ranks of non-commissioned officers, from the bottom to the top, they are corporal, sergeant, sergeant, sergeant, and sergeant-major. Each level of treatment will be improved. But note that all non-commissioned officers are soldiers, while officers are distinguished by captains, colonels, and generals. ”

"And the theoretical treatment of the first sergeant major should refer to the treatment of the full division level."

Li Ke told everyone about the non-commissioned officer and officer system, he did not move the officer system, captains, colonels, and generals are traditions since ancient times, and there is no need to change them, while non-commissioned officers are to give all soldiers a chance to get ahead.

Everyone instantly grasped the essence of His Highness's non-commissioned officer system, and gave an honor to some soldiers with extremely high merit, but who had no way to lead the troops because of knowledge and other issues, and also avoided the embarrassment of large-scale knighthood in the Tang Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to ask His Highness." Fang Xuanling next to him stood up directly.

"You say." Li Shimin nodded.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, last year's annual revenue of the Datang treasury was only more than 12 million guan, even if this year's Datang treasury will increase because of the commercial tax reform begun by His Royal Highness, but because there is no unified national development, even if the minister says more, the whole country will be calculated according to the income of the national treasury of 20 million."

"But the entire Tang Dynasty needs at least 600,000 to 800,000 troops to maintain national stability, plus grain, grass, armor, horses, clothes, bedding, etc., the funds needed to feed hundreds of thousands of people are probably close to 10 million, or even more."

"It's not that the minister disagrees with the reform, does the minister think that he should wait for the completion of the national commercial tax reform, and then carry out the reform step by step?" Fang Xuanling put forward his opinion.

"No, Datang's army, I'll cover this money." Li Ke said without changing his face.

Everyone was stupid...... You've got it?!

"Your Highness...... That's all for at least 600,000 people. Fang Xuanling was also stunned.

"I have calculated according to the quota of one million people, and the average military salary is 150 per month, and the military salary for a year is 1.8 million yuan. A set of Mingguang armor costs 80 guan, and one million people is 80 million guan, but this is a one-time expenditure, and the war horse has it now, and this part of the expenditure will not increase. Clothes and fabrics are made of fine linen cloth and other military uniforms, and I give a soldier a year a consistent money, which is only one million yuan. Grain per person is calculated according to 1 pound of grain per day, which is only 3 million stone a year, and I calculate it according to 5 million stone. ”

"If the armor is provided in 8 years, the current annual expenditure is 12.8 million yuan, plus 5 million stone grain, so that other training and so on will be lost, and I will add 15 million yuan per year plus 10 million stone grain per year, and I will pay out this money." Li Ke said without changing his face.

Everyone was silent...... So it is said that the gate valve family is rich, what is His Royal Highness King Qin called? God of Wealth?

Wait a minute? You're going to replace the Mingguang armor for a million people?!!!!
