Chapter 869 (1/2)
When Tan Tuo heard that Yuxi wanted to enlist, he asked, ”princess, why do you want to enlist?” Conscription means war. The northwest is developing well now, but if the two years of fighting in the Northwest can be in vain. Once there is a war, the northwest will return to three years ago.
Yuxi said: ”conscription is the meaning of the Lord. I can't dissuade him from trying to destroy the northern captivity. ” Destroying the northern captivity is Yunqing's dream all along. In this regard, Yuxi is not easy to stop.
Tan Tuo frowned and said, ”the population of Northwest China is only half of that ten years ago, and there is not much young labor force. If we recruit another 50000 strong men, I'm afraid there will be unrest. ” Why there are so many wastelands in the northwest? Not only are taxes and levies fiercer than tigers, but also young and middle-aged people are less and less. All the young men were conscripted and died on the battlefield.
Yuxi said, ”I have an idea, don't know if it's feasible?” Yuxi's idea is to recruit troops from several neighboring provinces. Although it is said that the surrounding provinces have strict checkpoints, money can make ghosts push the mill. As long as they operate well, they can still recruit some soldiers.
Anziko said: ”princess, it's a good way, but is the cost too high?” Those corrupt officials are all hard to produce. What they need to spend is not a small amount.
Yuxi didn't take anziko's words, but continued: ”the banditry in Shanxi, Henan, Hubei and other places is particularly serious. Those bandits, I believe most of them don't really want to be murderers and outlaws. Many of them are also bandits forced to live. If you give them a chance, they may turn away from the dark! ” Yuxi not only wanted to recruit strong men, but also bandits from surrounding provinces.
Anziko's eyes were shocked. He didn't expect that the princess wanted to recruit those bandits. Many of these bandits are killing people. There must be many problems in recruiting such people.
Tan Tuo is also surprised that Yuxi will have such an idea: ”princess, it's not easy to operate. These bandits are hard to tame. Even if they are willing to join us, they are not easy to control. One bad thing is to cause trouble. ”
Yuxi smiled and said, ”it's the generals' business to tame these people. We don't have to worry about it.” Yuxi is not worried about whether he can tame these people. Before, they also recruited many bandits. Now they are not obedient in the barracks. So as long as the generals are strong enough, the bandits will be subdued even if they are fierce.
After hearing this, Tan Tuo knew that Yuxi had made up his mind, and his opposition was useless: ”since the princess is confident in taming these people, this method is feasible. In addition, this time we only need the strong and the young not the old and the weak women and children. ” These old and weak women and children come here, which is a complete burden.
Yuxi nodded: ”this is natural.” Now she is paying for people. Naturally, she wants to buy useful people. It is impossible for her to spend money to buy some cumbersome people back.
”In that case, there is no need for compulsory conscription on the northwest side,” anziko said Because every year there is war and every year there is death. No family wants their son to be a soldier.
Yuxi thought about it, and said, ”don't worry, the matter of conscription on the northwest side will come in autumn.” At that time, when the number of soldiers is small, they will enlist in the northwest. If the number is enough, there is no need to recruit again.
Yunqing is not in favor of Yuxi's idea. Yunqing is a general. He dislikes bandits most: ”there are so many people in the northwest. It's not a problem to recruit 50000 people.” Yunqing also knew it well before he proposed to recruit 50000 soldiers. The Levy of 50000 yuan is still within the people's burden. No matter how much, it may hurt your muscles and bones.
Yuxi said: ”if we really want to recruit, let alone 50000, even 200000 can be collected. But in this way, only the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are left in those villages, and the land that is hard to reclaim will be deserted again. ” Although there are millions of people in the northwest, only a quarter of them are young and middle-aged. If we recruit another 50000 soldiers, the number of young and middle-aged people will be even less. A large reduction in the number of young and strong years is not conducive to future development.
On eloquence, none of the three Yunqing is Yuxi's opponent.
Yuxi said, ”I know what you think. But I think it is enough as long as they can kill the enemy wholeheartedly after entering the barracks. It doesn't matter what you've done before. ” Of course, those who commit crimes and commit crimes and kill people like hemp cannot.
As a superior person, we should focus on the overall situation and not act on our own preferences. In this regard, Yuxi is doing better and better, while Yunqing is still in great need. However, Yunqing has one advantage, that is, he will listen to people's advice as long as he speaks reasonably.
After listening to Yuxi's analysis, Yunqing finally nods and agrees: ”this part of the people, I will bring it myself then.” Give it to others, Yunqing is not at ease.
The last thing Yuxi dislikes Yunqing is that he likes to do everything himself. As a person in power, if you do everything by yourself, it's not the same. But Yuxi said it several times before, but it's useless. Now, Yuxi doesn't want to talk about it any more, so he doesn't feel comfortable: ”although there are many things that can be said, there are many things to be done, but I'm worried about it for a long time. You can't stand it.”
Yun Qing said, ”don't worry about it. I can't be tired of this.” Yunqing is in good health and seldom gets sick once a year.
Yuxi secretly shakes his head. Fortunately, the government affairs are handled by her. Otherwise, Yunqing will be really tired to death.
