Chapter 445: Liu Rushi, dare to speak out

Chapter 445 Liu Rushi, dare to make a statement

Liu Rushi is still wearing men's clothing, looking very handsome and more capable. She originally likes to wear men's clothing. During this period, she has been interviewing folk customs outside to understand the situation at the grassroots level. Successful men's clothing helps conceal her identity. Seeing Zhang Zhun come back, Liu Rushi was a little nervous and said happily: "Master."

Zhang Zhun nodded and said casually: "Do you have many ideas? You can't wait to tell me?"

Liu Rushi said nervously: "Yes."

Zhang Zhun nodded and said with a smile: "Okay! I'll give you three days to let you speak freely!"

Liu Rushi was overjoyed.

Throughout the spring of the eighth year of Chongzhen, Liu Rushi walked around various places in Laizhou Prefecture, went deep into the grassroots of various industries, and learned a lot of real situations. These situations turned into beautiful reports and sent to Zhang Zhun's desk, allowing Zhang Zhun to understand the most real situations at the grassroots level wherever Zhang Zhun was. Judging from the reports she sent, most of them were affirmative. However, a considerable number of reports had objections.

At the beginning, Liu Rushi was still relatively obscure and was a little worried about causing Zhang Zhun's displeasure. Later, he found that Zhang Zhun was not unhappy, and made subtle adjustments to the policy based on some of the situations. She felt that Zhang Zhun was supporting her work, and the later report was more straightforward. If there were any bad things, it would be pointed out directly. Now, it has developed to have a face-to-face conversation with Zhang Zhun.

Well, this is Liu Rushi's style. If you say that she is a little woman, she doesn't look like her. The role of a good wife and mother is actually not suitable for her. She looks weak and gentle, but has her own insights. Poetry and songs are just tools for her to hide her talents. Her real talent is in her view of the world.

Perhaps she had an unpleasant experience in the past, and now Liu Rushi looks much sharper in terms of looking at people and things. Of course, she also has to be more braver than before. Her perspective on problems is also quite novel. She will not easily believe other people's remarks.

Liu Rushi said nervously: "Master, I'm brave enough to tell me..."

Zhang Zhun smiled and said, "How could he be so serious? He still dared to speak out?"

Liu Rushi's nervous mood gradually calmed down a little, and he whispered: "Yes."

Zhang Zhun curled his smile and said straight to the point: "I know you have some opinions on Juntian Shixi. Let's first talk about Juntian. Any opinions and suggestions you have, you can say them straightforwardly, and don't hesitate."

Liu Rushi said respectfully: "Yes."

She said slowly: "I'm leaving outside..."

Zhang Zhun said, "In the future, you should call yourself me. You are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are not allowed to call you. Now, I think you are my military advisor, and our status is completely equal."

Liu Rushi's face turned slightly red, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited. He said respectfully: "Yes, lord. I was walking outside and saw some bad phenomena, mainly related to the military field. Military field can be hereditary, and some people try every means to occupy the best land. In order to achieve their goals, they will take various unconventional measures. Even if the original people are unwilling to give it to them, they will use violence to intimidate them. Or they pretend to be someone's relatives and rob them."

"The master will definitely not know these things, nor will Liu Hang and others know. Liu Hang and others are officials and cannot reach the real people. The people who are doing business are all officials, and only these officials are contacting the people. No matter what policies the master has, they must be truly implemented and the final handling are these officials. Therefore, it is very important whether the moral character of these officials is as good as the discipline constraints."

"When I walked downstairs, I learned that many officials were in secret and had many opportunities to do things. For example, if they got the benefits, or if they were in kinship with someone, they would be more partial when allocating military fields. If they had good relationships, they would be better. If they had bad relationships, they would be less. If they had family members in the army, in order to get the best land, they would be more bribed these officials."

"Master, you know that the military field is above the civil field. The "Juntian Order" must be implemented before the "Juntian Order". If that piece of civil field is taken aback, it will be replaced according to the relevant provisions of the "Juntian Order". In other words, as long as you take the name of the military field, you can seize the best fertile land. If the other party does not give it, it is a violation of the "Juntian Order".

"In Aoshanwei, I witnessed something with my own eyes. There was a family named Lin. He had a son who was in the army in the Chuangziying camp. He fell in love with a good piece of land next to him, and wanted to replace the other party's land and take it for himself. The people of the Yang family were unwilling to give it to him. So the people of the Lin family found officials and used the excuse of "Junior Field Order" to force the best land of the Yang family, but returned to the Yang family's five acres of poor land."

"After the Lin family got the five acres of land, nothing happened. He transferred the five acres of land to someone else and earned five taels of silver. Then, he colluded with the officials who allocated the military fields to fall in love with another family's five acres of land, snatched it up with the same means, and then transferred it to someone else. I secretly investigated it. Just by taking advantage of the military fields, he transferred the fields five times and earned more than twenty taels of silver."

"Master, I don't know if there are many such things, but I think such things are destroying the honor of the Hu Ben Army and destroying your honor. "Juntian Ling" is too special and gives many people room to do evil. You can believe Liu Hang, Wang Mingyu and others will not seek personal gain, but you cannot guarantee that the people below will have the same heart. I believe that the adults are deeply touched by the ability of officials at all levels in the court to make money."

"It was a good thing, but it turned out to be a bad thing. The purpose of the rebellion of the master was to destroy all the privileged classes. Unfortunately, now a new privileged class is established. People with military fields can easily gather together to form a new class. Now the number of people in the Hu Ben Army is still small and military fields is still small. The number of people in this class is not large, and the things that have been done are not many, and it is not serious. But what will happen in the future?"

"In the future, the master's team expanded, the number of military fields increased, the number of people in this class became larger and larger, and there were more and more misconduct. What should I do? Will all the fertile fields fall into the hands of the army? At that time, the soldiers have fields and swords and guns. What should you do if you want to be appointed as the governors? "

Zhang Zhun's brows slowly frowned.

Jiedushi!

This noun is so dazzling.

For any superior, it would be very uncomfortable to hear the name of Jiedu. If there were forces like Jiedu or similar Jiedu in the territory he controlled would mean that it would be shortly before his demise. However, if his army really had fields and swords and guns, what was the difference between it and Jiedu during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period?

Zhang Zhun is not completely unaware of the disadvantages of the hereditary military field. Before Liu Rushi, someone had already mentioned it in a tactful manner, but it was not as brave and systematic as Liu Rushi. He also went downstairs to investigate it personally, and there were real examples.

To be precise, there are many problems with the hereditary military fields, but after this large-scale expansion of the army. The original number of Hu Ben Army was only a few thousand, but now it has soared to more than 10,000. Due to the large number of soldiers, a large number of military fields have been distributed at the same time. In some details, of course, it is impossible to take charge of them all.

At the same time, after the Hu Ben Army controlled Laizhou Prefecture, the personnel became complicated. Some of the original officials were also retained due to insufficient staff. The bad habits they brought and the disadvantages of the hereditary military field were combined with everything, so the examples mentioned by Liu Rushi appeared. Although Liu Rushi mentioned only an isolated case, Zhang Zhun believes that similar things will definitely happen in other places. Don’t underestimate the wisdom of the working people, as long as you have the opportunity to gain benefits, the working people are still very smart.

Things that have fields and swords and guns can only happen to you. It is absolutely not allowed to happen to others, especially when it happens to your subordinates, which must be absolutely forbidden. If your subordinates have the possibility of becoming a military governor in the future, it will be even more unavailable.

But at that time, he had no money and no one, and wanted to encourage people to get up and kill his head, only the land was the cheapest and easiest to get. Snatching other people's fields and stimulating his own soldiers was a huge profit. Therefore, he issued the "Military Field Order". It can be said that the issuance of this law was completely in the need of war and did not take into account other factors.

As for now, the drawbacks of military hereditary have not been fully revealed, but have just been revealed. Zhang Zhun has not yet known what other drawbacks will be in the future. Therefore, Zhang Zhun has not yet felt the urgency of improving the military field. However, the example mentioned by Liu Rushi just reminded Zhang Zhun that the thousand-mile embankment was destroyed in an ant hole. "Military Field Ling" was originally a good thing, but if it turned into a bad thing, it would be more than worth the loss.

It is true that most soldiers' homes will not have too many ideas about where the military fields are distributed. However, a small number of soldiers' homes will not rule out that they want to use the loopholes in the military fields to obtain benefits. After all, everyone is driven by interests. As long as they find that a certain action is likely to make money, they will take risks. When this phenomenon of taking risks from exploiting loopholes becomes universal, it cannot be reversed.

For example, corruption among officials in the Ming Dynasty became popular, and it was well known, but the court could not reverse it. The reason was very simple. Every official was greedy, everyone around the emperor was greedy, and the emperor himself was greedy, how could you reverse it?

Military fields are to be hereditary, so we naturally have to seize the best fields. This is a very common idea. As for using military fields to seek benefits, it is a higher level of exploitation. In order to achieve this goal, if a person cannot do anything, several people must assist. In this way, an interest group will be formed. When this interest group becomes larger and larger, it will be difficult to deal with it in the future. If the army controls most of the fertile fields in the country, has land and guns in their hands, who can do anything to them?

Zhang Zhun believed that as long as he was still there, the Hu Ben Army would definitely not have any problems. The problem is, what will happen after he dies? At that time, no matter what political system the country adopts, it may not be easy to solve this group of people. The group of soldiers is very special. They have weapons and the largest violent machine.

For example, the current imperial court is also very painful for the system of the garrison, and it feels that the system of the garrison is useless and has no effect. However, no one dares to propose abolishing the system of the garrison. Why? It is because some people have guns and land in the garrison! If someone proposes to abolish the system of the garrison, the soldiers of the garrison will immediately rise up and rebel. This is a real rebellion, and it is definitely not as simple as raising money.

Liu Rushi proposed at this time, just to ask Zhang Zhun to prevent the problem from escalating.

Zhang Zhun pondered for a moment and said slowly: "What are some good suggestions do you have?"

Liu Rushi said without hesitation: "I think that from now on, the master will gradually cancel the hereditary of Juntian."

Zhang Zhun pondered and said, "The specific steps."

Liu Rushi said confidently: "First of all, we must limit the number of military fields and try not to expand the number of military fields. The concubine got some data from Liu Hang. The number of military fields currently distributed is only about 80,000 mu, and the absolute number is not large. As long as we do not continue to expand, it will be much easier to deal with in the future."

"From now on, those who join the army will no longer issue military fields and replace them with resettlement expenses. The master's army is becoming more and more powerful and has a greater influence. There will definitely be more and more people willing to join the army. Compared with other armies, the welfare of the Hu Ben Army is already very good and has strong enough attraction. Even if there is no military field, the master does not need to worry about the source of troops."

"In terms of daily meritorious rewards, silver can be directly distributed instead of military fields. The battle death pension and injury pension can also be distributed. The master is not very short of money now. If he is unwilling to receive the money, he can gradually replace it with civil fields. As long as the number of civil fields is several times more than that of military fields, I believe everyone will not resist fiercely."

Zhang Zhun nodded thoughtfully.
