Wang Shouren said: "The establishment of the standing army is based on the fact that the imperial court recruits troops and supports them. The students think that there are still some things missing."

Fang Jifan felt that the tea in his hand was not so hot, so he took a sip of tea lightly.

He knew that Wang Shouren had a lot of things to think about, and since he came up with an idea, it must be the result of his deliberation.

"However, based on this alone, it is far from enough to recruit talents into the army. People say that a good man does not serve as a soldier. The military households at the beginning were too miserable, and they were like pariahs. Now It is so difficult for Zi to change the concept of people in the world."

Fang Jifan agreed, nodded and said: "This is the truth, what can Bo An do?"

"No." Wang Shouren said: "Ordinary people need to solve a problem when they enlist in the army. This problem lies in promotion. With promotion, people have hope and desire. After making meritorious deeds, they are sent to the lecture hall to study, and besides being promoted to military officer, they also plan to divide the soldiers into three classes, and give them different treatment according to their seniority, military age, and meritorious service. For example, in terms of salary, some The benefits are also like giving a sum of money when they need to be resettled when they are disarmed and returned to the fields."

"In this way, the soldiers may not feel that they have the opportunity to make great contributions and become military officers. But at least they are more aggressive in the army."

Fang Jifan looked at Wang Shouren strangely, this Wang Shouren was really ice-snow smart, very like himself, he just came out of the same mold, huh? Is he really Wang Hua's son?

Fang Jifan said cheerfully: "I'm in charge of this matter. I will go and tell His Majesty when I meet tomorrow, and His Majesty will keep it and agree."

"There is one more question." Wang Shouren seemed to feel ashamed, coughing: "This question, the students have been thinking about it for a long time, hey...speaking of it, it is still related to the issue of expansion, teacher, as you know, most people in this world , all have prejudices against warriors, although... the soldiers recruited now are not military households, but the mentor... freezing three feet is not a cold day, warriors are treated poorly and despised by others. It has existed in ancient times, and it is true now Recruiting soldiers everywhere, if only a few thousand people are recruited, that's fine, no matter how you say it, the world is so big, you can still recruit many people, but now... the army is going to expand, this time, it's not thousands, but tens of thousands In the future, it may even be hundreds of thousands. Recruiting soldiers on such a large scale, the Ministry of War has already found it difficult. If we don't solve the problem, I'm afraid...the standing army..."

It turns out...Wang Shouren also had times when he was in trouble.

Fang Jifan laughed when he heard this, he paused, but looked at Ouyang Zhi: "I am here to test you as a teacher, you are the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, tell me how to solve this matter? "

Ouyang Zhi was silent for a long time, and said, "Give me the money."

"How much is enough?"

This time, Ouyang Zhi fell silent.

Yes, how much do you have to give to ensure that you are attractive to good families?

Ten taels a year is not enough, so twenty taels, thirty taels, fifty taels?

This is not the way to solve the problem at all.

Ming Dynasty court can spend one million taels of silver to raise 100,000 people, why should it raise 50,000 and 30,000?

The Ming Dynasty had a vast territory, and the army it recruited could not be thousands or tens of thousands, but tens of millions.

To recruit soldiers and horses, money must be given. It may be enough to guarantee their family's old snacks. No matter how much, the court can't afford it.

Seeing that the pair of teachers and brothers were silent, Fang Jifan said haha: "This matter, let's find a way for the teacher, hey... the disciples are not good enough, as a master, it is inevitable that you will have to worry about it. Don't be ashamed." , the teacher said Xu Jing."

Wang Shouren gave his mentor a strange look.

Seeing his teacher's calm and relaxed look, he couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart.

This question, to put it bluntly, is a prejudice of hundreds of years.

Since the Song Dynasty, suppressing warriors has become the national policy of every generation of emperors. After all, before the Song Dynasty, warriors relied on their military exploits to show off their power, separate the regime, and offend the superior.

The entire history from the end of Tang Dynasty to the beginning of Song Dynasty is a history of warriors killing their own emperors. The emperors, the soldiers and horses and horses, did it. This is by no means empty words, but the most real history.

Because of this, starting from the Song Dynasty, the prejudice and guard against warriors have never been relaxed.

As a result, the status of warriors has reached an outrageous level.

A civil servant of the seventh rank can scold a military officer of the third and fourth rank face to face. If military officers are like this, then...ordinary soldiers are even worse than pigs and dogs.

The military households in Ming Dynasty are the worst, and their treatment may not be much better than that of beggars.

Under this long-term habit, as Wang Shouren said, if you want to recruit tens of thousands of people, you will definitely be able to recruit them. If you recruit tens of thousands more, although there are good and bad, it may not be impossible. Large-scale recruitment, then...

Don't think about it!

Because, in this world, there are always a few dizzy guys who join the army when they have nowhere to go. It is also possible that someone fell into Fang Jifan's evil spirit and entered the army.

But after all, Fang Jifan didn't have the technique of lowering the head of a group, so he couldn't let everyone fall into evil.

Wang Shouren thought of many ways, but it was too difficult to improve.

This concept, just like the thief in the heart advocated by Wang Shouren, is the deepest feeling in the hearts of people all over the world.

The thief in the heart is easy to break the thief, but difficult to break the thief in the heart!

But the mentor, it seems that he didn't take this matter to heart, he just said casually that he will take care of it himself.

This shocked Wang Shouren.

In fact, many times, Wang Shouren always felt in his heart that his mentor didn't seem to have seen him read any books, and he was idle all day long, or else he was eating, drinking and having fun.

He is different from other disciples. Other disciples will never have any doubts about their teacher.

But if Wang Shouren had no doubts about Fang Jifan just because Fang Jifan was his mentor, then he would not be Wang Shouren.

Wang Shouren can think, and the more he thinks, the more he feels like he has entered a dead end, because his teacher is really unfathomable, or maybe his teacher...maybe sometimes it is really a blind cat meeting a dead mouse.

Of course, whether the teacher is capable or not, this cannot change the fact that Wang Shouren is Fang Jifan's disciple.

Now...Wang Shouren couldn't help thinking, my mentor...can really solve this problem easily? If so, how can the hundreds of years of prejudice, the thief in the hearts of thousands of people, be broken?

Fang Jifan didn't know what Wang Shouren was thinking about, but he said: "It's getting late, Bo'an, go wash the dishes, wash them clean, and don't think blindly while washing the dishes."

Wang Shouren got up and cleaned up the dishes.

Ouyang Zhi realized later, when Wang Shouren took away the bowls and chopsticks, he said: "Junior brother, let me do such rough work."

He spoke towards the void in front of the door.

Fang Jifan stared dumbfounded, is Ouyang Zhi mentally retarded or clever?

…………

The next day, Fang Jifan entered the palace and drew up a charter that Wang Shouren had mentioned yesterday.

Both Liu Jian and Li Dongyang were there.

So Zhu Houzhao seemed to be a bit more polite, and said solemnly: "Divide the soldiers into three classes? Why didn't I think of it, hum! Wang Bo'an made me so angry, I returned his charter to me, I can always figure it out myself Such a method."

Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao sympathetically: "Your Majesty, you are cheating."

Zhu Houzhao wanted to say something, but when he saw Liu Jian and Li Dongyang looking at him speechlessly, he hesitated to speak, so he coughed: "I'm just joking, do you take it seriously? Hmph, it's really... really... this regulation is wonderful." Extremely, Wang Boan really deserves to be my minister of the Ministry of War, this man is very talented, what I want is his whimsical ideas, this matter, I have granted permission, and the Ministry of War will implement it according to the regulations."

Fang Jifan breathed a sigh of relief.

Neither Liu Jian nor Li Dongyang said anything.

At their age, they will never put forward their own ideas easily unless they are really annoying.

Zhu Houzhao then said again: "Old Fang...Fang Qing's family, you seem to have something else to do."

"Oh." Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty is really a sage. You can tell at a glance that I still have something on my mind. I... I have nothing to hide in front of Your Majesty."

Liu Jian and Li Dongyang: "..."

Based on their many years of life experience, they have now begun to enter deep thinking.

If he was not mentally handicapped, this pair of monarchs and ministers would be a perfect example of a foolish monarch and courtiers. If you look at it horizontally and vertically, it looks like it no matter how you look at it, but they...why can they do so many practical things?

Zhu Houzhao didn't care about the two masters, but he was happy and said with a smile on his face: "Speak, tell, what's the matter?"

Fang Jifan said: "There are still some difficulties in recruiting soldiers. Ordinary good family members refuse to join the army. They don't believe what they say. Your Majesty... Now the standing army is preparing to expand. This is a top priority. Your Majesty has always been wise, and I think I already have an idea." gone."

Zhu Houzhao was stunned.

Why didn't they join the army?

Isn't it good to be a soldier?

Why do I have an idea? I have a mace, believe it or not, I am going to smash your sky cap.

"Zhen...Zhen..." Zhu Houzhao swallowed back the words that he almost blurted out, and said instead: "Look, they refused to come, so they ordered the local government to punish those strong men who refused to join the army."

Liu Jian, who had been listening silently, almost vomited blood when he heard it, and hurriedly said: "No, no, if this is the case, there will inevitably be complaints. Your Majesty, if you force it like this, then what is the difference from the former military households?"

Zhu Houzhao was speechless for a while, but after a long time, he said, "So Master Liu has an idea?"

Liu Jian: "..."

Zhu Houzhao looked at Li Dongyang again: "Master Li already has Zhizhu in his hands."

Li Dongyang: "..."

Zhu Houzhao glanced at them angrily, and said, "Old Fang, tell me."

"Your servant!" Fang Jifan said calmly.
