Chapter 277 The rigidity of the imperial legal system, Ying Zheng and Wei Liao have a heart-to-heart
Twenty-level military merits and title system!
Anyone in the army, regardless of his origin, will be rewarded according to the military merits he made. This is true even for the royal family of the Qin Empire.
Those who have not made military achievements in the royal family shall not be included in the clan’s clan’s regency or possess titles.
This is the foundation for the Qin Dynasty to be the best in the world and the foundation for the Qin Dynasty to annex the six kingdoms. But in the same way, as long as anything is beneficial, there will inevitably be disadvantages.
The same is true for the military title system of 20th level!
The twenty-level military merits and title system has become a step forward for the soldiers in the Great Qin Empire Army. After all, in the Great Qin Dynasty, you cannot be granted a title of marquis unless you have military merits.
It was only after the establishment of the Great Qin Empire that there was a change, and there were examples of civil servants who were granted titles to marquis.
Ying Zheng knew that the system of military merit and titles at the level 20 was the basis of the Qin army, and this would also lead to the strong military personnel in the Qin Empire. After a war, rewards would require a lot of land.
This means that the war cannot stop.
Once the war stops and the soldiers do not have land that rewards, their morale will naturally be degraded and their combat effectiveness will be severely reduced.
But even if he knew this, it would be useless. He could only watch that at this time, the system of military titles at the twenty-level rank cannot be abolished.
It can only allow war to be promoted, use war to attract the attention of the Qin Empire, and forcefully gather the entire Qin Empire into a force.
Nowadays, several reasons for the demise of the Qin Empire in history have been resolved by him, and the general trend has been alleviated.
The most fundamental reason for the demise of the Qin Empire was the sudden death of the First Emperor, and even more so because of the hasty incident, there was no time to arrange the funeral.
In addition, the descendants of the six countries never gave up the goal of restoring the country. They have been silently waiting for an opportunity to overthrow the Qin Dynasty, especially the descendants of the Chu State who have an irreconcilable hatred with the Qin Dynasty.
Now that he is still alive, he can suppress the entire Qin Empire alone.
In history, most of the army of the Qin Empire was on the frontier and empty inside. Now, the army of the Southern Expedition retreated to take charge of Chu, ensuring the stability of Chu.
This gave the Qin court a stronger vitality. Similarly, the major projects in the Qin Empire began to shift from simple corvee to hiring with money and grain.
This eased the sharp conflict between the common people and the court in the Qin Empire.
Ying Zheng knew in his heart that the biggest trouble in the Great Qin Empire is that the Great Qin Empire is a country that governs the country with the Legalist philosophy as its principle.
However, after unifying the six kingdoms, the original system began to become rigid, but the court was conservative and did not think about adapting. It governed a unified empire with the former wartime rule of law.
Reform is a must!
However, the Qin Empire today does not have so much energy, and the land reform will not end, and no ideas will be realized.
Change is a difficult process.
Especially since the Great Qin Empire became stronger because the Shangjun rule of law, once reformed, there would inevitably be many opponents, and even Ying Zheng had to be cautious.
...
The thought flashed in his mind, Ying Zheng picked up the wine cup and took a sip of the wine, and was silent for a while: "The expansion of the Qin Empire will stop one day. The system of military titles at the level 20 will sooner or later be a big trouble."
"This time Wang Ben crossed the sea and attacked Qizi Korea to prepare for the eastward crossing Yingzhou. The Foreign War Department heard news that there were a large number of gold mines on Yingzhou."
"Where is there, there is enough land in the county. I plan to send troops to occupy the ships in Daqin Tower after they have sufficient nautical experience..."
Speaking of this, Ying Zheng looked at Wei Liao deeply: "This world is so big that it is so big that it is unimaginable that even my life may not be annexed."
"Taiwei, I plan to use troops to the outside world soon, and fight against the Huns in the north to fight for a battle."
"I need the Taiwei Office to submit a combat report or a strategic plan to take into account all factors such as the environment of the Huns."
"At the minimum price, destroy the Huns and obtain the grasslands in the north, so that our Qin Empire can have its own vast horse farm. From then on, the cavalry will no longer be short of war horses!"
...
Ying Zheng has great ambitions!
At this time, he was almost exposed, and Wei Liao also clearly noticed Ying Zheng's ambition, which made him feel excited, as if he had returned to the glorious years when he had just entered Qin.
"Your Majesty, with the ability of King Ben of the Wuhou, he commanded 300,000 shipmen from the Qinlou to conquer Qizi North Korea, and it is no longer a problem. What's more, I have studied the map of Qizi North Korea."
"Our army can advance along the water and land. No matter which side has a problem in the year, there will be another army to ensure the attack and destruction of Qizi North Korea."
Wei Liao was one of the best strategic masters in the world. He used to not pay attention to Qizi and North Korea. As a person from the Central Plains, he naturally had a high opinion of himself.
But now that Ying Zheng wants to conquer Qizi North Korea, he will naturally pay attention to it. After careful observation, he found that Qizi North Korea's geographical location is a place that must be fought for by military strategists.
Especially when Ying Zheng wanted to travel east to Yingzhou, he could see from the amazing map provided by Ying Zheng that Qizi Korea was a huge springboard.
As soon as he thought of this, Wei Liao looked at Ying Zheng, and said word by word: "But Your Majesty, Tongwu Hou's attack on Qizi and North Korea was just a small test. Wo Ju, Shen Su, Donghu and other countries had to beware of it."
"Now, 30,000 elite Qin soldiers from the Northern Army have been drawn. Naturally, there will be no big problems in the Liaodong area. Now, the focus of the Qin court should be on land reform above the Three Jins."
"This is the biggest problem of the Qin Empire. Only by implementing land reform in the Three Jin areas will it be smooth sailing from now on."
The wine was filled with fragrance. Ying Zheng listened to Wei Liao's thoughts and kept building it in his heart. Nowadays, people must understand the matters of the Qin Empire, or those who stand high enough or low enough.
Among the entire Qin Empire, only Wei Liao, Wang Wan and others were able to talk about this with him.
"If the Three Jins have implemented land reform, they may be rebelling. If the imperial court does this, it will basically be killed. Naturally, they will not sit still and wait for death."
"Now in South Korea, the King of Han and the former Korean Prime Minister Zhang are basically uprooted. The only ones that threaten our Great Qin Empire are the royal family of Wei, Zhao, and affiliated families."
"But, with Marquis Wu Cheng leading 30,000 Qin soldiers in charge, I'm afraid they won't dare to act rashly!"
...
Wei Liao knew in his heart that Ying Zheng came here this time just for heart-to-heart talk and did not need to decide big things, not to mention that Wang Jian made a butcher knife made with the blood and lives of 200,000 old Qin people.
