The beggar emperor at the end of Ming Dynasty - Chapter 547

Although the number of professional soldiers of the Qin army may be about 600000 in the future, the number of national guards and reserves is absolutely huge.

In order to reduce the burden on the imperial court, Qin Huan of the National Guard planned to implement the conscription system, that is, there was no pay for food and shelter. In the future, all men over the age of 17, who were not disabled, must serve in the military for two years.

Except for the only child, students studying in public schools and those who have been assigned jobs, no one can be exempted.

In other words, as long as you are not the only child at home and have not been admitted to middle school, you must be a soldier for two years after you reach the age of 17, even the prince is no exception.

As for the National Guard, Qin Huan also made clear provisions. In addition to equipping a small amount of fire guns for training, for the time being, it was mainly sabers, spears and shields, and military uniforms and hats were mainly cotton.

Two hundred are stationed in lower County, three hundred in middle County, four hundred in upper county and five hundred in Sanzhou.

Zhili Prefecture stationed 1000, Xiafu stationed 12000, Zhongfu stationed 1400, Shangfu stationed 1600.

There are 4000 Independent States, 5000 small provinces, 6000 central provinces, 7000 large provinces and 10000 central provinces.

The size of counties, prefectures and provinces is divided by the number of people. In this way, the number of national guards in a province ranges from 120000 to 56000. These national guards are mainly responsible for maintaining local public security and disaster relief.

All the National Guard troops must be stationed in other provinces, which are also managed and trained by the military and political yuan. At the same time, they accept the dispatch of local commanders. However, if they want to go out of the province, they also have to be ordered by the Marshal’s house, and the Grand Marshal of the yuan Marshal’s house is concurrently held by the emperor.

In order to better manage the National Guard Army, Qin Huan also learned from the guard station system of the Ming Dynasty. Each province set up a command department, with a young general as the command envoy, each Zhili Prefecture and prefecture set up a guard command department, with a colonel as the guard command envoy, each county and Sanzhou set up a county command department, and a young school captain as the county command envoy.

All command departments are directly under the jurisdiction of the military and political yuan.

After two years of military service, national guards can choose to retire or sign up for the field army examination. After passing the examination, they can be transferred to the field army.

The field army is paid. Ordinary soldiers have a minimum of 52 per month. Of course, the field army also has to retire.

All the dynasties in China will learn from the lessons of the previous dynasties. The hereditary system established by Lao Zhu, let alone Qin Huan, a modern man, even the ancients, may have to be abolished.

Qin Huan also stipulated the retirement system of the field army, that is, those who have not been promoted to a junior colonel at the age of 30, those who have not been promoted to a senior colonel at the age of 40, and those who have not been promoted to a junior general at the age of 50.

Of course, after retiring, school captains are generally transferred to National Guard officers in various places, and their ranks remain.

The general will not retire, but retire. After the age of 60, all the generals will be transferred to yuanshuai mansion to provide for the elderly. Unless there is a war, they can no longer lead the army.

This system is very similar to that of the Song Dynasty, but it is essentially different, because the Marshal’s house is often sent by the marshal who commands the generals. As long as there are strict military laws, the combat effectiveness of the army will not be weakened, as was the case in the Warring States period.

After careful consideration, Qin Huan cancelled the militia system. It was not good for all the people to be soldiers, so he planned to take another way, that is, in addition to gonghou’s uncle and son-in-law, add another scholar.

This scholar does not mean a scholar or a title, but is equivalent to a symbol of status and an honor.

Scholars are divided into two types: Knight and warrior. Similarly, scholars are divided into lifelong and temporary.

Lifelong taxis do not need to be assessed. They are paid a salary of one or two silver a month. They are only granted to retired soldiers who are injured and disabled on duty. Once granted, they will enjoy it for life.

Temporary warriors and knights need to be assessed. Anyone can participate. Knights mainly assess strength, physical fitness and reaction speed. Knights mainly assess equestrian and immediate archery.

Of course, after the popularization of knowledge in the future, we will have to take a written examination of some military common sense. Each province will set up an examination room, which will be examined by the Royal people. Each person can take the examination three times a year, one time at a time, or three times in a row.

After passing, it is granted a short sword, symbolizing the identity of a scholar, and a special bank account. The Royal Bank will directly distribute one or two silver to these accounts every month for a period of two years.

Before the deadline, these warriors and knights need to come again to take the exam. Only after the bank receives the data passed the exam will it continue to pay, otherwise it will not pay money on the account.

The service life of each warrior and knight is more than 20 years, and will be changed from temporary to lifelong. At this time, there will be no need to assess. There is also one or two silver to take every month. Moreover, when the emperor recruits soldiers to join the war, he can choose not to enlist, but temporary soldiers and knights must enlist.

There are several advantages. First, it can improve the martial spirit of the whole people. Once the war starts, there will be plenty of high-quality soldiers, and it can also compensate those retired veterans and disabled soldiers.

Moreover, the salaries of these warriors and knights are all paid by the royal family. These people are bound to become the strongest supporters of the royal family. If anyone wants to overthrow his descendants in the future, they have to ask millions of scholars around the world whether they agree or not.

As the saying goes, every dog butcher who is loyal to justice is always a scholar. This sentence is absolutely a wise saying.

Take a look at Daming. He also raised scholars for more than 200 years, but he raised a group of white eyed wolves, which not only pit the old Zhu family, but also the whole China.

He was also a supporter of Qin Huan, but he was a supporter of warriors and knights. He believed that as long as there were these warriors, no foreign nation would want to destroy China.

With Qin Huan’s imperial edicts, the whole land of China was boiling. Especially those strong guys were excited. They were gearing up, or lending or borrowing money to go to the provincial capital to study.

Qin Huan also selected a group of soldiers and female officers from the imperial palace guards to form an assessment team, went to the provinces to set up assessment offices, and stationed them for a long time.

It was not until all these military and state affairs were arranged that Qin Yu looked beyond the great Qin Dynasty.

Early in the morning, sun Wang and brother AI nengqi went to the palace in fear. Along the way, sun’s back was wet. Now the second son has gone back to the northwest. He doesn’t even have a petitioner. He is really scared to death. If it weren’t for a lot of wives and children, they all want to kill themselves directly to avoid humiliation and suffering.

At the gate of the palace, they happened to run into Zheng Sen, Zheng Zhilong and his son, who had just been released from the prison.

Zheng Sen is better. Zheng Zhilong’s legs and feet shake all the way. He is worse than Lao sun.
