Chapter 64 The core of welfare benefits is the military field

(0064)

[Today's fifth update is 15,000 words, this is the first update, please collect it, please recommend it~~~~]

All the matter of "equalizing the fields and exempting the tax" was left to the relevant personnel of Shengxia Zong to be responsible for it. Zhang Zhun plunged into the expansion of the guard team in Fushan. This time, the expansion of the guard team was quite large. Of course, he had to do his best to do every detail in the middle to ensure that the combat effectiveness of the guard team continued to improve, rather than decline.

The organization of the Ming army was basically a five-five system such as gangs (10 people), teams (50 people), associations (150 people), whistle (750 people), and battalions (3,250 people). The numbers in brackets are all combat soldiers, not including officers and auxiliary troops. In addition to officers and auxiliary troops at all levels, the force of each battalion is basically around 4,000. Why is it said to be similar to the five-five system? It is because each association only has three teams.

Zhang Zhun's meaning is that from beginning to end, the 55 system is implemented, and each association still manages 5 teams. In this way, the number of soldiers in each association increases to 250, the number of soldiers per sentry increases to 1,250, and the number of soldiers in each battalion increases to 6,250. Of course, this is a matter of the future. The current guard team has increased from the original eighty to about four hundred, and the number of soldiers under it is still under the jurisdiction.

After adjustment, the Fushan Institute guard team has a total of nine teams. The original eight teams have been expanded to eight teams, namely Yang Qianqiang, Yang Zhiyuan, Yang Hongwen, Yang Junjie, Hao Linyong, Yin Fengyi, Zou Mingjia, Li Jiaxi, and the team deputy are Zhang Yatie, Wu Xinshui and others. The biggest highlight of this expansion is the addition of a musket team, which is led by Yang Zixuan.

The original mate commander and sergeant commander became team commander, team deputy, and the original escort soldier, and naturally became new mate commander and sergeant commander. According to the standard equipment, each team is not counted as officers, and there should be 50 soldiers. In fact, each team is not full, and there are vacancy. The one with the largest vacancies is naturally the musket team. These will be slowly replenished in the future. Four hundred people are out of production, which is almost the limit of Fushan Institute.

On the morning of April 22, the seventh year of Chongzhen, the young and middle-aged people who were determined to join the Fushan Institute's guard team gathered at the Hongshitan training ground. If they wanted to join the guard team, they had to pass Zhang Zhun's assessment. Early in the morning, the Hongshitan training ground was in a solemn atmosphere and people were rushing. At a glance, they were all black heads.

Peng Feizai was also among the people participating in the assessment. No one had a stronger desire to join the guard than his desire to join the guard. The one who followed him was nearly 100 young and middle-aged men in Maojiatun. If he could not be selected by himself, he would not be able to raise his head in Maojiatun in the future.

In addition to these young people, there were many fellow villagers gathered around Hongstone Beach, pointing and pointing at each other, which was very lively. Either they were the parents of these young people to see if their children could pass the assessment, or they just came to watch the fun. Because there was no idea where the news was circulating, the guards were about to hold a grand flag-raising ceremony.

Before this, the flag-raising ceremony of the guard team was exaggerated by Lin Bin and others, and it was unprecedented. Everyone couldn't help but run around and see it, which was a sight to open their eyes. When they went to Liaodong to fight the Tartars, many people in the Fushan Institute participated. They really wanted to see what the difference between this flag-raising and the Ming army's sacrificial flag.

In fact, even the elders and fellow villagers of Yangjiatun were allowed to watch the training of the Yangjiatun Guards at close range for the first time. In the past, the escorts were closed and no outsiders were allowed to watch. Last time they just admired the flag-raising ceremony and did not see the real training of the escorts. Now it is different, Zhang Zhun announced that this morning, there will be training demonstrations to allow everyone to see the combat effectiveness of the escorts at close range.

Sure enough, early in the morning, the guards conducted half an hour of assassination exercises. Eighty people were divided into multiple groups to show everyone the assassination skills. Although they used bamboo guns wrapped in cotton cloth to cover up the murderous aura of the bamboo gun, the powerful and clean assassination movements still shocked the audience. Yang Kaide and others were very satisfied. Even the Tartars might not be able to resist, let alone some units of the Ming army like tofu?

In addition, Yang Zixuan's team also showed the power of muskets. The three Lumi guns became the most dazzling star on the training ground. At a distance of 100 meters, the three Lumi guns concentrated on shooting at a piece of limestone, which smashed the limestone. Not to mention the accuracy for the time being, the destructive power alone is terrifying. Even Yang Kaide and others who have been to the Liaodong front line have never seen such a powerful musket.

"If we had such a powerful musket before..."

Many elderly people who survived from the Liaodong frontline couldn't help but mutter to themselves.

However, they didn't know that the Lumi gun had been available during the Wanli period and it was possible to be domesticated. Zhao Shizhen had mastered the technology of making the Lumi gun. It was only because of the corruption and short-sightedness of the court that he missed such sharp firearms. However, the key factor in the war was still people. No matter how powerful the firearms were, they could only be the leader of the transportation brigade when they were incompetent commanders of the Ming army.

After the training, Zhang Zhun announced that the flag-raising ceremony began.

The soldiers of the Yangjiatun Guards were dressed in neat military uniforms and gathered around the flag-raising platform. They straightened their waists straight, raised their heads and chests, showing their strongest side to everyone around them. The movements of the queue and the postures of the queue were enough to make Yang Kaide and others admire them. They did not have such basic skills back then.

Four energetic guard soldiers slowly entered the venue with bright red military flags.

The yellow hexagonal star in the middle of the military flag looks particularly eye-catching under the rising sun.

"Rise the military flag!"

"Sing a military song!"

Zhang Zhun announced loudly.

Amid the loud song of "Unity is Strength", the military flag slowly rose.

This common military song in later generations was plagiarized by Zhang Zhun without hesitation. After making a few subtle changes, it became the military song of the guards. Every day when the military flag is raised, there are also military songs that have to be sang in the morning and evening before the lecture begins. Zhang Zhun believes that this kind of spiritual indoctrination of repeated repetitions will help improve the mental outlook of soldiers.

The flag-raising ceremony was something that the military households in other villages in Fushan Institute had never seen before. For a moment, the audience was solemn. Whether it was the bright military flag or the loud military songs, it made everyone excited. Especially those young people who came to participate in the assessment were eager to try and wanted to become one of them immediately. Look at the military uniform and the military flag, how charming!

After the flag-raising ceremony, Zhang Zhun took the stage to speak.

Standing on the top of the station, Zhang Zhun glanced at everyone around him and announced the relevant benefits of the guards.

The first is one tael of silver every month, all the food, clothing, housing and transportation are free.

Second, each soldier in the guard team can obtain five acres of "military field" after joining the army. The service period of each soldier is five years. After five years, if he continues to serve, one acre of military field will be added for every year of service. The military field will not be recycled after the owner dies and will be permanently owned by his descendants or his family. The more people join the army at home, the more military field you will obtain. The longer the service period, the more military field you will obtain.

Third, the reward method for killing enemies and making meritorious contributions. The more enemies you kill, the more rewards you receive. The reward form is also military fields. Kill an enemy, you can get at least one acre of military fields. Killing an important figure in the enemy can get three acres or more military fields. The more meritorious contributions, the more military fields you receive.

Fourth, whether it is a battle death or a disability, there are military field subsidies. Those who die in battle are subsidized at least 20 acres of military field, with a maximum subsidy of 100 acres. Those who are disabled are subsidized at least 5 acres of military field, with a maximum subsidy of 50 acres. The higher the skill level of a soldier, the more military field they obtain after being killed or a disability.

The fifth one is that disabled people can also enter the injury retreat department and continue to use their remaining energy.

The sixth one is that the number of military fields is not subject to the upper limit of 50 acres.

"If you have the ability, you will chop up Huang Taiji. I will reward you with 3,000 acres of military land!"

This is what Zhang Zhun said.

There was a sudden warm applause from below.

"In the battle with Black Panther, we had three soldiers unfortunately sacrificed their lives, and five soldiers unfortunately retired with injuries! I now announce in front of everyone! Every sacrificed warrior can receive a reward of fifty acres of military fields! Every injured warrior can receive a reward ranging from ten to thirty acres!"

Deafening cheers sounded again below.

Lin Bin and others all left tears of excitement.

He had been told by Zhang Zhun before that according to the degree of disability, he would be rewarded with fifteen acres of military fields as his daily source of life. These military fields would never have to be taken back. In other words, his descendants would have all of these fifteen acres of military fields in the future. Lin Bin thought it was really worth it to exchange for fifteen acres of military fields for his descendants at the cost of one leg.

In fact, the core of the series of welfare benefits implemented by Zhang Zhun is "Military Field".

Juntian is relative to Mintian. According to the detailed rules for equalization and exemption of taxes formulated by Liu Hang, Wang Mingyu and others, the fields assigned by the people are called Mintian. After the owner dies, they will be taken out and redistributed. In the future, when the population is too large, they may need to be readjusted. However, Juntian is different. Juntian is hereditary and does not need to be taken out and reapplied. What is the initial amount and how much is it in the future.

If a certain piece of land is included in the military field and belongs to a certain person, then the land will always belong to this person. After he dies, the land will belong to his descendants. If there are no direct descendants, it will belong to his relatives. Others shall not invade in any way. The award of the military field must be approved by Zhang Ju.

The use of military fields as a way to stimulate combat morale was proposed by Zhang Zhun after careful consideration. For military households, giving land is much more attractive than giving silver. Many lessons from Guanning Iron Cavalry show that land is more attractive than silver. Moreover, if you give land, Zhang Zhun himself has little economic pressure, and the saved silver can be used for other purposes.
