Chapter 890 The Way of Governing the Army

After all, any mistake that relies on coercion to oppress the people is contrary to the nature of human hearts.

It's fine when there is little war. Once the labor burden of military households is too heavy, the military households under Cao Mengde's command are likely to flee or even mutiny.

Cao Cao naturally understood this principle.

But there is no way, the economic strength of Wei State is much worse than that of Da Chu.

He could not give such good treatment to the soldiers, so he could only make this bad decision.

The soldiers under Yuan Shu are a bit like professional soldiers.

They have high incomes and good treatment, and they are honored to serve as a soldier by one person.

Only this military system can train a series of amazing combat forces such as the Shenwei Army, Qilin Guard, Feixiong Army, Yue Family Army, etc. on a large scale.

Other princes could not do it at all.

At most, they trained special troops of several thousand people under their command.

For example, when Gao Shun followed Lu Bu, the number of people trapped in the camp was only one thousand.

Cao Cao's tiger and leopard riders were also thousands, and he could not afford to support them if he had too many.

The military strategy that Xi Zhicai just praised as "shaking the past and shining the present" was the system of military governance summarized by Yuan Shu.

The system of military service began in the Western Wei Dynasty and flourished in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

In layman's terms, this system is to select strong soldiers among the people and give them land.

Let these soldiers farm in their daily life, participate in military training in their spare time, and call them to serve as soldiers in wartime.

The military system of the government can not only save military expenditures in Da Chu, but also strengthen agricultural development.

The most important thing is that the soldiers trained in the Mansion Soldier System are not bad in combat effectiveness.

The ancients were still very simple, and most people’s pursuit was to have a warm kang with wives and children.

After becoming a military soldier, Da Chu distributed land, land, and money to them, and gave them taxes and fees.

These soldiers of the government will immediately become small wealthy families in the village.

After becoming proprietors, in order to survive from the battlefield, they will definitely spend huge sums of money to buy armored war horses, and will be much more serious when training.

Such troops will certainly not be under the elites of Han, Yan and Wei.

Yuan Shu’s strategy was to retain the existing professional soldiers, and then add the government soldiers. The two methods were used in parallel to pull up a unit of millions of people.

With a million troops, plus the top advisers, generals and commanders, isn’t it easy to deal with the other Three Kingdoms?

Even if the war started at the same time, Yuan Shu would have the confidence to beat them.

Yuan Shu smiled and said:

"Since the aspirations recognize this military system, it should be a feasible strategy.

After a few days, I summoned Mr. Liu and others to implement this policy."

Xi Zhicai shook his folding fan and nodded, admiring his king's military talent.

"By the way, I have something strange to tell the king this time."

"What is Zhicai saying?"

Xi Zhicai thought about it and said to Yuan Shu:

"My subordinates recently discovered several missing persons when dealing with Shouchun government affairs.

I didn't pay much attention to this matter, because people disappeared from time to time.

However, recently, such cases have become more and more frequent and the number of people has become more and more frequent.

Those who are missing are young women and young men, which has to be alert."

Yuan Shu's heart sank. As the capital of the Great Chu State, Shouchun had so many missing cases under his nose, which was obviously premeditated.

Yuan Shu asked Xi Zhicai:

"Can the Ancient Ministry investigate this matter?"

Xi Zhicai replied:

"My subordinates thought these cases were strange, so they asked the commander of the Ancient Ministry to investigate secretly.

The Anbu discovered that these missing people had one common characteristic, that is, they all went to Yiyufang on the commercial street."

"Where is Yiyufang? It's similar to Yihonglou?"

Xi Zhicai replied;

“Some similar.

However, the actors performed in Yiyufang include men and women, and most of them are alien races.

Moreover, their prices are very affordable, and ordinary people are completely stressful when spending.

Therefore, Yiyufang is very popular in the commercial street and is crowded every day.”

“That’s interesting…”

Yuan Shu secretly thought in his mind that every inch of land in Shouchun's commercial street was valuable, and it would be quite expensive to open a store there.

Therefore, whether it is a brothel like Yihonglou or a hotel like Wanshan Restaurant, it is all hosting large customers with consumption power.

This Yiyufang pays such a high rent but provides services to civilians. Do they have money and nowhere to spend charity?

Yuan Shu thought about it and said to Xi Zhicai:

"In this way, let's go to this Yiyufang tomorrow to see what's going on."

Yuan Shu thought that he would take Guan Yu around the commercial street anyway, so he might as well go to this Yiyufang to take a look.

If the missing people in Shouchun are really related to this place, then I will order the Yiyufang to be uprooted.

The next day, Yuan Shu came to the courtyard where Guan Yu and Dian Wei lived early.

Before he could enter the courtyard, he heard the sound of fighting inside.

Yuan Shu walked in and saw Guan Yu and Dian Wei Zheng fists and fight fiercely.

What's going on? Why did these two people still attack?

Yuan Shu discovered that Dian Wei's pair of iron halberds were placed on a weapon stand.

If you don’t use weapons, it should be a question of Guan Yu, otherwise Dian Wei would do his best to suppress Guan Yu.

"Stop it."

Hearing Yuan Shu's words, the two of them quickly stopped and stood aside.

Yuan Shu glanced at the two of them, Dian Wei was sweating all over his head, and he looked at him with a little fear.

Guan Yu also had blood and blood, and his blushing face seemed to drip out of water.

"Tell me, what's going on.

Didn’t I tell you that you are not allowed to do it?”

Dian Wei stammered and replied:

"Last night, I talked with Guan Yu, no, I talked with Brother Yun to the night.

When we were having fun, Brother Yun said that the heroes in the world could surpass him in just one palm, and the rest of the mediocre people were all those who put on the bidding and sold their heads.

I also followed him and said that I was invincible in the battle between old and old.

But this guy... Brother Yun insists that my old Dian can't beat his brother Zhang Fei.

Who can tolerate this?

I will discuss with him and prove that I am better than his brother named Zhang Fei!

Lord, I’m useless even with an iron halberd, so it’s not considered bullying Guan Yu.”

Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Sword had long been confiscated by Yuan Shu, and he was bare-handed and fistless at this time.

Guan Yu was not as easy as the Qinglong Yanyue Sword on the weapon stand, so Dian Wei simply did not compare weapons with him, but only fists and feet.

Dian Wei said so much, Guan Yu just snorted coldly:

"My brother Zhang Yide took the general's head among thousands of troops, just like taking objects from a bag.

Although you have some courage, you are far inferior to him."

"you…!"

Dian Wei was about to have an attack, but he was interrupted by Yuan Shu and said:

"Okay, evil is coming, don't you see Guan Yu's body hurt?

What are you chasing with a disabled person?

I will take Guan Yu to Dachu Medical College in a while and ask Dean Hua to treat him.

It’s not too late to compete with him when his injuries heal.”

Dian Wei said in a muffled voice:

"The king is right, I, Lao Dian, shouldn't take advantage of others' danger."

Dian Wei turned his head to Guan Yu and said:
Chapter completed!
