The health system and the prefectures and counties operated in parallel. This was the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. If someone was lame, they would naturally fall.
For example, the Jiangnan Coastal Guard Station collapsed, leading to rampant Japanese invasion; the Nine Border Guard Station collapsed, forcing the court to fund troops, and the finances collapsed.
Isn't the reason why the Manchu Qing Dynasty rose because of the decay of the Liaodong Guards Station and its inability to suppress it in time?
South Zhili was divided into two, and there were countless trivial matters, but the most important one was the military household guard station along the coast.
At the emperor's suggestion, the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion could only compromise and was forced to spit out all the guard posts.
Naturally, its land, population, household registration, weapons, buildings, etc. also need to be recalculated.
As part of the compromise, the forts, piers, beacon towers, etc. were also converted into money and compensated for the military households.
Of course, in order to prevent these people from seeking life and death, local state and county patrol officers and tax card officers will also give priority to them for employment.
Although it is very troublesome and cumbersome, it is indeed a necessary step, and it is also for the future promotion to the whole country to learn from experience and serve as a template.
According to cabinet estimates, if the health centers are reorganized, there will be at least 45 more counties in Jiangsu and Anhui provinces.
They were all restructured from Qianhusuo and Weisuo, so there was no need to rebuild the city, which was extremely convenient.
If those military households were not lost, theoretically there could be nearly 100,000 more civilian households, but it is a pity that there is no such thing.
According to estimates from various places, the losses caused by the war were huge. For example, almost all the guards in Huaibei were wiped out, and there were only about 50,000 military households.
What's more funny is that in order to ensure fairness, the Fifth Army Governor's Office and the local government asked the emperor to send Jin Yiwei and the Military Justice Department to the accounting supervision.
Of course, the advantages of the military household system are also very obvious. If I had to make an analogy, it would be better to call it military colonization.
For example, the development of Yunnan, Guizhou, Shaanxi, Liaodong and other places was thanks to the efforts of military households.
But if it is located in a prosperous area or inland, there will be endless troubles.
In this way, since he is going to destroy the military household system with his own hands, it means the destruction of the local military system formulated by Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang.
"There are no military households in Jiangsu and Anhui provinces, so local guards must make arrangements in advance."
As he sat on the throne, looking at the cabinet ministers sitting half-assed, Zhu Yixi asked for their opinions.
Without military households, local guards would not be able to arrange to fill the vacancies.
"Your Majesty, in the opinion of my veteran minister, the garrison system implemented in the Huguang area is extremely feasible."
Zhang Shenyan is a relatively old-fashioned person. In comparison, he is a conservative and conservative person. He has established regulations to use and maintain them to the maximum extent.
The emperor nodded slightly.
The garrison system is also called the garrison system. When we were in Huguang, the place was divided into eight, four war zones and four major garrison areas.
War zones have greater autonomy and are integrated with military and political affairs, but their geographical area is narrow. For example, the Jiujiang war zone that Bai Wang guarded at that time consisted of only one city in Jiujiang and two counties, Huangmei and Susong.
As for the guard area, as the name suggests, it means to guard. Soldiers and officers are generally disabled soldiers, and their main role is to maintain local security.
Moreover, after the autumn harvest, the garrison must organize local young men to conduct training for at least half a month, so as to hide the troops from the people.
However, although there are many advantages, the disadvantages are also obvious, that is, the number of people is too small.
There are only about ten thousand people in a province, and each province has at least sixty or seventy counties, so at most there are about two hundred people in each county.
"The defense costs too much."
Unexpectedly, Yan Chongxin immediately rejected the proposal: "The garrison in Huguang costs about 800 yuan each, and they also have to pay for food, clothing, etc. Although it is only half of the Beijing camp, it is really too high."
"And if it is implemented nationwide, the sentences will inevitably be expanded, and I am afraid that the court will not be able to afford it."
Now, the salary for the Beijing camp has increased to 1,500 yuan, and the garrison is half that, which is 800 yuan.
Although the defenders are not as good as the combat soldiers, they are still elite models. They have horses, firearms, and training from time to time. The cost is only slightly less than that of the combat soldiers.
In this case, it can be used as a substitute in wartime, but in peacetime it is overqualified.
To defend the whole country, we need at least one million soldiers, which means we have to support another 500,000 Beijing troops. Who can bear this?
The emperor quickly shook his head: "The district system cannot be implemented, but it can be implemented in border areas such as Gansu and Shaanxi. Forget about the inland areas."
After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Yixi still made reference to the system of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
The Ming Dynasty Guards and the Qing Dynasty's Green Camp were very similar. They were both hereditary soldiers. The only difference was that the former was given land and the latter was given money. In the end, both collapsed.
The saying of the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty is true.
There is no doubt that the hereditary system is the simplest and cheapest recruitment model, but it is also the easiest to collapse.
However, from the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties, the military systems in these dynasties were all hereditary, which is fucked up.
But there is no way, the children of soldiers must be better than ordinary people.
"Five hundred for the city and two thousand for the capital. It is set up as a patrol camp. It is based on the system of the garrison, and the pay is generally the same."
"There are three hundred people in each county. It is called a patrol camp. The salary is half of that of the defenders, but food and equipment are included. They are responsible for arresting thieves and assembling knives and guns. Forget about firearms!"
To put it bluntly, we should rely on the prefectural and provincial capitals to suppress the rioters. The county government is still responsible for arresting thieves and bandits. Three hundred people are enough.
"In addition, the local provincial capital has a general soldier to guard its capital, and the local captain is responsible for patrolling the camp, and each of them performs his duties."
"The officers of the patrol battalion and the patrol battalion are all sent from the Beijing camp and selected by the Ministry of War."
As for the hereditary system, it will definitely not be adopted, then it can only be a recruitment system:
"The provincial governors will add a recruitment and training department to recruit young men under thirty as soldiers and send them to the local areas."
"Whether it is a patrol battalion or a patrol battalion, the age limit is forty-five. Once the age is reached, the army will be dismissed and new people will be recruited to ensure a continuous flow of living water."
"If you are homeless, you can work in the kitchen and take care of chores. You don't have any money, you can only eat."
Listening to the emperor's eloquence, the cabinet ministers fell silent.
Huang Zongxi and Zheng Sen, who wrote the daily notes, had words of admiration on their faces.
Regarding the change of the system, this is the most turbulent and exciting thing, because it changes the fate of millions of people and the system that has existed for hundreds of years since the resurgence of the Ming Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, a thousand troops are easy to obtain, but a general is difficult to find."
Zhang Shenyan felt that the emperor was too radical, so he had to say: "Recruiting troops is easy, how can we get officers?"
"In the past, under the military household system, officers were hereditary, so the military naturally deteriorated."
Zhu Yixi folded her hands behind her back, looking confident and with extraordinary momentum:
"The health center is a pool of stagnant water. The past exquisite work has become a decoration. I will not use it."
As he spoke, he looked at the three people with bright eyes and said, "Since there is a Wen Jinshi, why not a Wu Jinshi?"
