In the winter of the second year of Tianwu in the Great Wei Li and Tianwu, the eldest prince of Northern Liao, Yelu Shenwei, led 200,000 Tianlang Army to defeat Nalan Shu in the Northern Dazhong of Taizhou. The 500,000 army was forced to retreat to Wangjianhe. Xiao Zhenshan's tribe took the opportunity to withdraw back to Linhuang Mansion and would continue to send troops to chase Nalan Shu after the rest. Xiao Zhenshan's tribe was also slowly advancing eastward, sweeping away the rebels of the small tribe one by one. It is currently located in the lower reaches of the Nur River, close to the Wei tribe in the East.

At this time, in the palace of Princess Dongxia, "Nalan Shu was defeated and has retreated back to Wangjianhe. What should I do next?"

The man in the mask was tightly wearing a big cotton jacket, "Well, tell him to continue to retreat north. Cross the Hei Shui tribe and station at the junction of the East Xing'an Mountains. Do not enter the primeval forest. It is best to wait in the south of the mountainside."

Wanyan Xiu had no idea what he meant at all, "Why must he be in Brun Mountain? Isn't it OK to have a dead wood mountain? If the front line is too long, Nalan Shu will be in great danger."

The man shook his head, "The Mount Dead Wood belongs to the Dongxia Plain, which is only one thousand miles long and is limited in coldness. Mount Brun is different. It is 2,500 miles long and 500 miles wide, and the primeval forest is even more surprising. It is the season of heavy snow, and you can only rely on perseverance to destroy the Tianlang. The Northeast Plain is not suitable for fighting cavalry with the Northern Liao Dynasty. Nalan's technique goes deep into Mount Brun, so is it not dangerous to the Tianlang Army? If you want to do big things, you must know how to sacrifice."

"How to destroy them?"

Seeing that her attitude changed so quickly, the man was not thinking about enlightening her, and stood up and walked to the map beside the wall. He stretched out his hand and said, "For others, the Bruns Mountains are too dangerous, but don't forget that these can only be considered ox-haired in front of the Far East Army, and it is not worth mentioning. The weather is bad and the supply is difficult. Xiao Zhenshan retreated to Linhuang Mansion to rest, and Xiao Zhenhai is still busy suppressing the rebellion. Do you think this battle would be higher if the Far East Army was the main attacker in this battle?"

Wanyan Xiu was still a little hesitant, "If Xiao Zhenshan finishes rest and goes north to rescue, what will happen then?"

"There is no choice, so I can only take the 500,000 troops of Nalan Shu to take over. How much can I live? I can't stand it... Then I'll die all!"

"Haha! I always thought that your heart was kind, but I didn't expect you to be even more cruel than me. I wonder if you can still be cruel when you attack Wei in the future?"

"Hmph! If you want to destroy Bei Liao, I only have this strategy. Whether you need to use it or not."

"What? You get angry when you mention the Great Wei? Such a good strategy must be used. I, Dongxia, have a population of nearly 20 million. At worst, I can change the policy after the war and force the military service to re-recruit hundreds of thousands. You can drink tea slowly. I will go to Xiaojia to take a look these days. I am not at home, so worry more about Liang'er."

"Why are you going there? If the 200,000 army still cannot defend the Liaoyang Prefecture, he might as well leave the voluntarily."

"I am just a brother, so can't you say something nice? He admires you so much. Every time I see me, I have to ask if my brother-in-law is doing well. It turns out that he is still a waste in your eyes. No wonder he has such a bad relationship with Wei Jingmin. He deserves that all the people in the Wei Dynasty want you to die."

"Get out, it's not your turn to do with Wei Jingmin."

"Hmph! I'm too lazy to care about it."

...

(To explain, the Xing Forest in Shandong, Brun is close to the Far East. Not to mention the bad weather, it is even more snowy and knee-breaking in winter, and the average temperature is tens of degrees below zero. Some people may ask, when the grassland battles, most of the supplies and weeding materials are brought by living creatures. How can the men with this mask be sure to defeat the Tianlang? In fact, under such harsh conditions, the fighting is no longer a combat power, and whoever has strong perseverance will win. The Far East Army has been stationed in the caves for many years and has been fighting for perseverance. It is obvious that the Tianlang Army is not an opponent. The low temperature environment of tens of degrees below zero is ice slag, and once the cattle and sheep carried by the Northern Liao Dynasty freeze to death, it is conceivable whether they can walk out of the primeval forest is a different story. Without nonsense, let’s see what happened after the old man returned to Yuzhou.)

———

In the late winter of the second year of Tianwu in the Great Wei Li, Liu Yi, the former Anxi Grand Martial Arts guardian, returned to Yuzhou.

At this time, in the Yuzhou Military Command, "Are Qiqi's meal ready? I'm almost starving to death by my husband."

"Quick! Hurry! Wait a little longer, it's time to get ready."

It snowed as soon as he crossed the mountain city gate. When he came back, he went to the Northern Army Subway to see the training of the new recruits. According to Yu Kun, the current recruits in the army have always maintained a total of 100,000, and each cavalry and infantry are 50,000. This is also what he explained when he was in the desert. The new recruits must recruit 100,000 in any case, and must be enough to supplement the damage to the desert. So far, he has no specific plan for the military service system. When he does not fight, he seems too much of the troops and too little when he fights. This situation is not very beneficial to Anxi now. After all, the military expenditure is too large, and military service reform is also imperative.

Looking at the military service systems of various countries in the mainland, they are different. The Central Plains have also revised many military service systems since ancient times to the present. In ancient times (before the Warring States Period), the Shang Dynasty and Zhou Dynasty were still in the slave stage. Soldiers were held by slave owners and civilians, while slaves did not serve military service only. In the late Zhou Dynasty, the military system was modified, and "maintained soldiers" and "second soldiers", which means formal soldiers and reserve soldiers. In the Spring and Autumn Period, the Central Plains' vassal states once again modified military service, allowing slaves to join the army as armored soldiers (soldiers who can wear armor), and the county conscription system appeared. During the Warring States Period, the various vassal states competed to expand the standing army in order to carry out annexation wars and began to implement the county conscription system. The Qin Dynasty swept six

After the merger, the military system was not modified, but followed the Warring States system and improved it. The military service system in the Northern Han Dynasty was a leapfrog reform. Anyone who was over 20 years old had to go to the government to register. From the age of 23, he had to serve in the military for two years, and he worked in local counties for one year, learning military technology such as cavalry and shooting. He was also called "main soldiers". In the second year, he would be dispatched to guard the imperial city or stationed in counties, called "Beijing Guards" and "Guards". After serving for two years, he would be transferred to the reserve army. Once he was summoned by the state, he would be exempted from military service. In the middle of the Northern Han Dynasty, he not only implemented the conscription system, but also implemented another "recruitment system", which is to recruit.

The meaning of recruiting men to join the army. The Great Jin also followed the Northern Han military system. In the late Jin Dynasty, due to the melee of aristocratic families and the three strong conquests, wars were too frequent, the population was severely reduced, and the recruitment system was difficult to implement, so it was changed to the world military system. The soldiers' families changed to "military households", and the military households joined the army for generations, with fathers passing by sons, and brothers returning to the younger brothers. After the Great Wei unified the world, due to the changes of the times, the military level of various countries generally improved. The emergence of hard steel and the military use of leather armor (hard steel on the chest is armored soldiers) of various ethnic groups in the grassland led to an increase in casualties. In each war, the damage was at least thousands and tens of thousands, and the supply of troops was too large. The Great Wei revised the military system again.

The "official military system" was implemented. That is, the military governments of each state managed soldiers. Regardless of whether they were regular soldiers or not, as long as they were ordinary people of the Wei Dynasty, they must go to the military government for training during the slack farming period. If there is any war, the military governments will prepare supplies on their own. The soldiers will lead their troops to fight. After the war, all the families of soldiers who died in battle will be exempted from taxes and the court will pay pensions. The last time the military service was modified was forty years ago, in the thirty-two years of Emperor Chengzong, due to the severe drought in the empire, the large families took the opportunity to collect the fields, resulting in the destruction of the equal-field system. The people did not go to the military palace to join the army for the empire, and the government system ended. After the rebellion of King Liang, Wei Yan took the throne and changed the government system to the recruitment system, which continued to this day.

This is also the main reason why Yang Xuedong had fully supported the annexation of land in Zhenzhou. Of course, he would not use the system of military troops anymore. Now, the military governments in various places have continued to use the recruitment system, and even he has always used the recruitment system. Because the Dongxia was deeply influenced by the Great Wei Dynasty, they would change the Central Plains. The Northern Liao still implemented the system of military troops. After all, grazing is different from farming, and the recruitment system is not suitable for the grassland.

The Northern Han smashed slavery, the Great Wei smashed the aristocratic system, and it seemed that he wanted to destroy those land families again! In any case, the equal land system must be implemented, and the poor cannot die of poverty or the rich. All the world is the king's land, and the king's ministers are the king's ministers, and what Wei Yan and Wei Jingmin dare not do are not difficult for him. Anxi focuses on commerce and agricultural issues, no matter how much he makes trouble, it will not have a great impact on Anxi.

As for military service, it seems that the system of government troops and simple recruitment systems are not suitable for Anxi. No matter how large the army is, the combat effectiveness is still a small part. The millions of troops in Anxi, and the only one who can really count the main force is the 200,000 black cavalry in Chen Qiu's hands. Of course, Murong Wudi's 100,000 gray cavalry is also good at combat effectiveness.

(Someone may ask here that the million-strong army has only 200,000 to 300,000 main force, so why do you need another 700,000 to 800,000 people? This is the idea. When the Qin Dynasty destroyed Chu, there were only 200,000 wars. Why did Wang Jian have to 600,000? The desert is so big, would the black cavalry turn around and leave after capturing the territory? Or would it be that the two or three hundred thousand to hit more than one million? They are all flesh and blood, and so much physical strength is used to destroy them? Besides, the elites have consumed it. How to fight the battles behind? The Golden Armored Army is not afraid of the sky or the earth, but can it win without the cooperation of the Black Cavalry? The Demon Legion of the Beisha is only 100,000, while the army of the Southern Expedition is as high as 5 million. The reason is here. The 100,000 army is only responsible for treating difficult and complicated diseases and breaking the strongest force of the enemy. Slightly ill and minor disasters still have to be used in other military branches. After all, the number of people is too small and the offensive strength is limited. Let’s not talk about nonsense, let’s talk about how he will modify the military service system.)

The current situation in Anxi, sometimes the difficulty in recruiting soldiers is because the people want to live a stable life after they arrive in Anxi, or some people are tired of fighting and do not want to join the army. Moreover, Anxi was at the limit in the early stage and had no reserve troops at all. At present, the 100,000 reserve troops in the army are still regular troops, but they are just regular troops that have not yet entered the battlefield (it will be launched sooner or later).

His idea is to implement a conscription system in addition to the recruitment system (with compulsory nature). All the people in Anxi, one son or more must serve in the military for three years, and be included in the reserve after the service period. The only son family also needs to serve in the military for three years, and will not be included in the reserve after the three-year period (if you have a conscience, you will come back, if you don’t have a conscience, you will be able to). Once the government recruits, it needs to respond actively.

The recruitment system remains unchanged. Anyone who volunteers to join the army can choose to stay in the army after three years, or they can choose to retire and be included in the reserve military service.

He also considered the selection of military officers. Forty years, the Great Wei Dynasty was unable to take into account cultural education due to national strength issues, which made the current cultural level of the people generally low, and illiteracy accounts for 99% of the 10,000 illiterate people. It doesn’t matter whether the lieutenant or the lieutenant commander is the position of brigade commander. It is necessary to have some culture. It is difficult to read military newspapers. How can I order wars? Otherwise, it would not have made the Anxi million troops lack such a senior general. A reorganized division in Zhenzhou and Monkey was the commander of the division. Logically speaking, there should be five brigade commanders below, but the reality is that there are only one. Baling, Zhang He is reorganized division, and his brigade regiment is under his command. The leader was Chu Ergou. Not to mention the Desert, the 300,000 troops under the Shi Army, and the brigade commander was only Lin Qiang, and he added the commander of Cui Zhi. Fortunately, the desert has a relatively concentrated force. If it is slightly dispersed, it may be difficult to dispatch. Chen Qiu's black cavalry only had Ji Hu, the commander of the division. The current situation is that the commander personally led the troops, otherwise there would be no way. A division commander used back and forth, with six reorganized divisions of the Tiger Legion, Shi Jun served as four divisions, Cui Zhi served as two. Eight reorganized divisions of the cavalry, Chang Xiong served as two, Ji Hu served as two, and the remaining four were all Chen Qiu served as one.

There is no way, who is a little bit of culture these days and is willing to come to join the army? A large gang, a chamber of commerce and other study masters are better than being a soldier. No matter how bad it is, he can find a wealthy family to manage the accounts. Now that he is back, he will handle this matter well after solving Yelu Shenwu.

Yang Kai, Yuzhou School, has built a lot, but it is all in the city. If it is not popularized in various small towns, it is still a drop in the bucket. Studying costs money. It is difficult for ordinary people to have so much money to let their children go to the city to study, or they can make up a few months of tuition to let their children go to school to recognize words. After the tuition fee, they can recognize words in a few words. If this problem is not solved, some Anxi will lack officers in the future, and administrative talents are probably not enough. After all, it is still a foreigner to take office in such a large territory. It is difficult to save the place outside without a little literary talent.

For the early training of officers, the result of his consideration was to first set up an Anxi Military Academy in the Northern Military Subway. The lieutenant and the supervisor of the lieutenant took turns to return to Yuzhou for training, without any expert in literary talent, and could understand the military newspaper and analyze the strategy. No matter what, a small part of it must be cultivated first. He will not be like the big bosses in the mainland. Those who are capable are all below, and the incompetent people will be promoted very high. The early stage was financial and manpower, and the impact may not be great, but the later stage is different. The weakening of financial and military sources and the loss of troops makes it difficult to ensure that a defeat will not have an impact on his own success or failure. Just like the article "The Battle of Tutuna Island" he read, it was just because of a big defeat, but it was the end of the destruction of the country in the later stage.

As for the popularization of schools, it seems that it has to be re-planned. The Anxi government does not charge the people's tuition fees, but those private schools are still collecting them. Moreover, the three meals and accommodation fees of children on the day of school are indeed a big burden for ordinary families. If all the schools and private schools in Anxi can be integrated into various counties and towns in the mainland, and the teachers can also be concentrated and distributed to the government to manage them uniformly, I don't know if it can achieve the efficiency. Or if the teachers pay higher wages and let them voluntarily participate in the Anxi education cause. Nowadays, the imperial war is fighting, and it is believed that the teachers in the mainland will not have a good life. How many students can go to study in the chaos? How many students are taught, and then the dozens or hundreds of students are not taught?

There is also the issue of scientific examinations. The Wei people value fame and reputation. If the civil war is not over, the scientific examinations will probably not be reopened. If Anxi wants to do this scientific examination, he has to raise his identity. The position of the PROC alone is probably not qualified. I just don’t know if Wei Jingmin will give it. Even if he gives it a marquis, he is qualified to find the court to transfer the scientific examination location. Wei Jingmin has no time to hold the scientific examination, so he can completely appoint Anxi to do it. After all, the rebellion was the Three Feudatories, and the one who seized power was the rule. Liu Yi is still on the side of the royal family. It seems that he has to talk to Wei Jingmin. Whether he is a king or a marquis, he will get the qualification first. The school must be built first, and a military institution must be built. Before going to the mainland, he must arrange for Lao Hu to handle this matter after the New Year.

(It can be seen from this point that it was so important to express my opinion to Wei Jingmin at the beginning. Now I just want the right to conduct scientific research and apply more to royal places in the future. Have a meal first and then discuss what happened in the future)

"Yeah! I haven't seen each other for a year, and Qiqi's skills have increased! Not bad, scrambled eggs with chili peppers, although they are spicy, but the taste is very good. OK!"

When I could hear him praise, Qiqi was also very happy, "Is it really good? I dare not stir-fry it too spicy, Xueer can't eat it. Hurry up, how about my husband trying these spicy and sour potato shreds?"

"Yeah, okay! Yes, why haven't Xue'er come back yet? When is it now?"

"I know that my husband will be home today and go to the city to buy New Year's goods early in the morning. He should be back soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a shouting outside the door, "Hurry, hurry up, carry two pig heads to the kitchen, move these vegetables to the well, I will wash vegetables and make fillings for my cousin in the afternoon, and make dumplings for my cousin to eat in the evening."

"Miss, where is this frame of charcoal?"

"Oh! Yes, there is charcoal, put it in the outer room first. This is for my cousin to warm my house. Don't be wet by the heavy snow."

Walking out the door, looking at Xiao Xueer who was busy. This girl has changed a lot over the past year and everyone knows that she has done housework. She shouted "Cousin" to Xiao Xue.

Hearing the scream, he turned his head, "Σ(?Д?")" Cousin?^_^ Cousin..." As he said that, he ran over and forced himself into someone's arms, "Cousin, I miss you so much..."

Someone laughed, "Hahahaha! It's pretty early for me, and I thought I couldn't delay the New Year, right? I rushed back. My brother is not at home this year, but Xiaoxue is mature."

Xiaoxue pouted, "Hmph! I think it was my cousin who was in love with picking up girls in the desert so she didn't come back, so don't lie to me."

"⊙?⊙Well? Who did you hear? I was busy with war all day in the desert, so how could I have time to pick up girls?"

Qiqi laughed secretly beside her, "Okay, my husband, we've known it a long time ago. They've been here for a few days, and you're still in the dark."

He was even more depressed when he said this. What did the two girls know? He was still kept in the dark? "No, Qiqi! What do you know? Why don't I know?"

Seeing that he didn't seem to be pretending, Qiqi explained, "A few days ago, there were two people in our house. A girl and an old lady in a wheelchair said that she would go home and have a look. The old lady also said that we should call him aunt in terms of seniority, because you call her that's the same for your husband."

Xueer also interrupted, "Yes, yes! Especially that girl, with her appearance..., golden hair, blue eyes, and skin is as white as the sky full of snow, and she is surprisingly beautiful. Sister Qiqi and I are afraid of standing next to her and feeling like walking on the snow... Alas! I can't say, I'm almost sad."

Xiaoxue's metaphor was like this, and he was a little surprised, "Do you look like the fairy in the snow?"

"⊙?⊙! It should be right! I really don't understand why her skin is so white? There may not be a woman like that in this whole Dongfang. It's really enviable and jealous!"

I understand, and the entire East? The entire continent may not be able to find a queen of the Goddess Kingdom, Kerke Shuchan, who is known as the Goddess of the Desert, and can get this title without strong capital? No wonder these two girls are so jealous. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, OK, where are Aunt Hua and Shuchan now?"

"Ah? Husband, do you really know them? It's over, Xueer and I are probably going to be abandoned! What should we do?"

He reached out and knocked Qiqi's little head, "What are you talking nonsense? Tell me where Aunt Hua and Shuchan are now?"

"?_?In the small courtyard on the north lakeside, the old lady is inconvenient in legs and feet. She doesn't want to stay in the inn, and the girl doesn't want to live in our house. Sister Yuming only returned to Yuzhou for half a year. The small courtyard on the lakeside is also empty, so I took them there."

"In the reservoir? OK! I'll go and have a look after dinner. _? Are you two lines? Qin Yuming knows both of you?"

"Ah..., I've known each other for half a year, okay? You just don't know."

"Oh?⊙! Eat and eat."

...

(I didn't expect that during his inspection at the Tingzhou construction site, Aunt Hua and Shuchan also ran over and arrived in front of him. No wonder they all changed their clothes at the gate of the Goddess Kingdom. It turned out that they were also coming to Yuzhou. It was probably because the Goddess War was over, Aunt Hua took her out to relax again.)
Chapter completed!
