Chapter 914: Guan Long's Ghost End

"Shaanxi imperial guards, archers have not experienced any experience, eliminate the elderly and weak and cannot serve, and then subtract the recruited knights, about 150,000. It is planned to be granted official fields in Shaanxi and Shuofang according to households, and a household has granted fields ranging from 200 to 1,000 mu of dry land, and make them live in the countryside, implement the township agreement, and use military officers as gentry..." Su Che sat high in the middle hall of the Zhengshi Hall, and took the memorial sent from the Shaanxi Transportation Office in Jingzhao Prefecture first and read it in a low voice.

In the memorial, Su Chi reported that Wu Haogu and the general generals of the Western Army repeatedly discussed for more than ten days before the final case was actually the "Agreement for the Reorganization of the Army" reached by Du Junmaster and the Western Army generals.

The ancestors of the Zhao family had a glass of wine to release military power. In Zhao Ji's generation, another agreement was introduced to sack the soldiers, which was quite a contractual spirit.

According to the agreement reached, the Western Army can obtain resettlement posts, including archers (archers have been granted land), not including knights, and there are a total of 150,000 households! It is divided into three levels: gentry, sergeant, and villagers.

The gentry is a military officer family with officials in the Western Army. It is the leadership of the town of the military army. A household can grant 1,000 acres of official land, and can also receive official salary, money, land, etc. as usual, and can also obtain official positions in the military government first.

The village soldiers are appointed by miscellaneous military officers and cavalrymen (not selected as knights) in the Western Army. They are the backbone of the town of the government soldiers. A family can grant 500-600 mu of land. If they hold military positions, they can also receive military salary as usual.

The villagers are the homes of ordinary soldiers and archers in the Western Army. They are the main body of the homeland of the palace soldiers. One household can grant 200-250 acres of land.

According to the "Agreement", all land granted by the government soldiers, whether granted to gentry, villager or villagers, is the nature of the land under the military government. It is not private, cannot be sold, nor can it be divided and inherited. It must be recorded in the name of the head of the household, and the head of the household is in principle the serving person shall be the head of the service.

Except for the family of difficult and wounded shade, all land-giving households must serve and meet certain standards to maintain land-giving standards. The standard of land-giving refers to whether the official position and the number of land of the service personnel matches? If the gentry family cannot produce military officers, their status will decline and they must pay back part of the land.

There are four types of service. One is to serve as an official, that is, to serve as an official. Whether he is a military officer or a military position, he can be granted land. If he is not a military officer, but later becomes a military officer, he can also be granted land according to the standards. In addition, they can enjoy all the treatment of officials as usual.

The second type is "Long March", which means that the miscellaneous military officials and cavalry who served for a long time can retain land and receive salary.

The third situation is that the "official soldiers are active in service", which means they are imprisoned in the military camp all day long, with a term of five years! There is no military pay, but no other expenses are borne, and the reward can be received.

The fourth situation is "military service in the reserve office". After serving five years of active service, the Tianfu soldiers must serve 20 years of reserve service. During the slack season every year, at least one month must be spent to serve in the military office and train to prepare for war. If they are still recruited to the army and serve in active service and then reserve to enter the active service, they must pay full military pay.

As long as one person in the land-giving family meets one of the four conditions above, he can continue to retain the land. He does not have to pay any rent and taxes. He and his wife are exempt from all corvee labor for life.

If no one in the land-giving family meets the above four situations, it depends on whether there is "hard" or "harm". If so, before the heirs become an adult, the family can not only maintain all the original treatment, but also receive rice and grain from the military mansion on a monthly basis.

If there is no "hard shade" or "harm", then there is no need to retain the land!

In addition to granting land and exempting labor service, there is also a privilege to grant land and military soldiers, that is, children can receive free rural education.

The so-called "country school" is actually a basic school plus a simplified version of the Six Arts Academy to teach simple Confucianism, literature, mathematics and battle formation art (that is, the queue and martial arts on the battlefield). When graduating from the township school, you can also choose the best to enter the Kaifeng Infantry Academy and Jiehe Knights Academy! As long as you enter these two military schools, you will be admitted immediately and you will be an official after graduation!

Moreover, Kaifeng Infantry Academy and Jiehe Knights College will also reserve a certain proportion of enrollment places for the Tianfu soldiers. This is actually a discount for the Western Army generals. It is unlikely that they can get enrollment places by relying solely on rural education, unless they have amazing talent.

In addition, in addition to about 150,000 soldiers from the Tianfu Army, the computer room of the Sixth Route of Shaanxi will also pick out 5,000 knight families from the Western Army. The treatment of knights is far greater than that of soldiers from the Tianfu Army. The land alone has 2,000-2,500 acres! Moreover, the whole family can be exempted from corvee (enjoy the treatment of officials), the children can receive better education, and have the opportunity to serve and protect the emperor. Of course, the opportunity for promotion is not comparable to that of ordinary soldiers from the Tianfu Army.

"This Wu Chongdao is still good at doing things..." Su Che finished reciting the memorial and said with a smile, "The Western Army has been solved now! 200,000 people will be sorted into more than 30,000 regular new troops, 120,000 reserve troops and 5,000 knights. The expenses may be greatly reduced!"

The plan that Wu Haogu and the Western Army generals discussed seemed to have given the Western Army a lot of privileges and discounts, but in fact they still suffered a loss.

The original Western Army had at least tens of thousands of people after deducting archers, and they were all imperial guards! It was only a bunch of big-headed soldiers (not officials), and a year of military pay, military rations, uniforms, and rewards were added together. It was impossible to deal with it without more than 10 million.

Now it has been integrated into 30,000 active-duty standing army and 5,000 knights, and most of them are not paid. The annual expenditure of personnel (not officials) is as high as 2 million yuan. I saved more than 8 million yuan at once!

Zhang Shangying frowned, "Is it a little cruel to cut 200,000 to 35,000 yuan? What if there is anything, is this little force enough?"

"Enough!" The answer to the question was Zhang Shuye, the Tongzhi Du Junji. He was not qualified to participate in the two governments' gatherings.

However, no one of the big men of the two prefectures led the army and did not understand the situation of the Western Army. So when the Chongzheng Palace asked for an order today, Su Che asked for an order to transfer Zhang Shuye to the two prefectures to participate in the meeting.

"These 35,000 are the essence of the Western Army. They are all war soldiers, and 5,000 of them are armored cavalry!" Zhang Shuye said, "If you really want to fight, you have to be equipped with auxiliary soldiers, that is, the 70,000 army."

Is it a lot of 70,000?

The civil servants and officials who were sitting in the city still didn't know that they had never been to the battlefield and had never brought soldiers. They could not truly understand the principle of "good military service, not much". Moreover, they did not know that there were generally 20% or 30% of the vacancy in the army, and the regular military soldiers were mainly vacancies who did not pay, and strict management could eliminate the vacancy.

This is a real battle for 35,000 soldiers!

"In addition," Zhang Shuye said, "Northwest is not only the Western Army, but also the Shuofang Army and the Lingzhou Army.

The Dujun Magistrate calculated that the Western Army could probably sort out 6 generals, and the Shaanxi Sixth Routes and One General can ensure that there is no danger. The Shuofang Army and the Lingzhou Army can also refer to the Western Army for organization and set up the Tianfu Army. This will not only allow the two armies to obtain reliable troops, but also immigrate to the real border."

Although Wu Haogu was gone, the Dujun Pilot Department was still operating normally. While the Western Army had made significant progress in reorganization, the opportunity to reorganize the Shuofang Army, Lingzhou Army, and even the Eastern Army was also begun to be formulated.

Zhang Shu said at night: "Dujiyisi believes that the Shuofang Army has four generals to be awarded the Tianfu Army, and the Lingzhou Army has one general to be awarded the Tianfu Army, which is enough to be used."

Su Che nodded and said, "That is, 11 generals with 55,000 people, and 5,000 knights, a total of 60,000 people, which should be enough."

"There will be more knights. A group of Shuofang Army and Lingzhou Army will also be placed in the Shuofang Army, and there may be 7,000 knights." Zhang Shu said at night, "Hebei has more than 3,000, and it may reach 5,000 in the future. In this way, there will be 12,000 armored cavalry nationwide, which is enough to fight against the Great Liao."

"Oh." Su Che just nodded. He had never thought about how awesome the 12,000 armored riders were! Moreover, these 12,000 pieces could also play wall-type charges and wheel attacks...

"How do the five generals of the Shuofang Army and the Lingzhou Army be formed? Are there so many immigrants?" Zhang Shangying thought of more practical questions.

"There is already a solution." Zhang Shuye said, "You can select strong soldiers from the governments who served in Shuofang and Lingzhou to grant fields and identities. Choose hundreds or thousands of people a year, and then you will get all the people in a few years."

"What about the Eastern Army?" Jiang Zhiqi, the head of the Privy Council, asked, "There are still more than 100,000 imperial guards in Hebei and Hedong, and they cannot fight. Do you need to rectify them according to this method?"

"That's certain." Zhang Shuye smiled, "Xiaoguan thinks that when Wu Chongdao finishes the Western Army, he can still let him rectify the Hebei Army... As for the Hedong Army, Xuguan can let Zhong Ruowen take a trip."

Of course, Zhang Shuye didn't want Wu Haogu to return to Kaifeng Prefecture. In fact, this was also the consensus of the two prefectures. They had no way to get rid of Wu Haogu and his school of practical studies now, but there was still a way to block him outside.

Su Zhe smiled and said, "We can let Wu Chongdao be the ambassador of Hebei's appeasement and control. This title is enough. The serious coach is a serious official. A serious official... The Hebei army is harder than the Western Army, and it is enough for him to work hard for several years."

After all, the Western Army was an elite soldier who fought for a long time, while the Hebei Army and the Hedong Army were just ordinary people, and a considerable number of them were "urbanized", which was different from the Western Army generals who were squinting in the mountains.

It is feasible to give fields to the Western Army, and the same method will definitely make the mess in the Hebei Army and the Hedong Army.

But Wu Haogu must have a solution, but he has to work hard for many years... When Wu Haogu was dragged down by the Hebei army, Su Che could let go of his hands and feet and make his big plan in Kaifeng Prefecture.

Yes, Su Che is also very thoughtful! His idea is to save traditional Confucianism through imperial examinations and rural reforms, and save the situation of sharing the world with scholars and officials.
