Chapter 739
The princes, princes, ministers, civil and military officials who were invited to court were still whispering, with little voice, but from everyone's faces, no one was willing to stand up as a leader because no one had ever raised his head.
Li Sifeng went to Ji Meng Yi and the three Shangqings sat upright in their seats, each looking at the tablet in their hands as if thinking about countermeasures.
Chen Xu also sat on his own big bearskin chair, looking at his eyes and nose, his heart... and taking a nap.
"Chief Dashu, since you have proposed a disarmament plan, can there be a specific way to resettle these abolition soldiers?"
Qin Shihuang's eyes fell on Jiang Bu.
Jiang Bu stood up tremblingly, stammered and blushed, bowed and said, "Your Majesty! I only felt from the two wars of conquering the Hungarians and Hu. The slow-moving old-fashioned infantry was not very useful, so I proposed a plan for disarmament and specific arrangements... I have never thought about it. Your Majesty can ask all the lords of the three provinces and six ministries, and they will definitely get a good placement strategy!"
Many officials from the three provinces and six ministries raised their heads instantly and rolled their eyes at Jiang Bu viciously.
This is so shameless about putting the plate. It is obviously a plan proposed by your dog god.
Qin Shihuang nodded slightly, as if Jiang Bu's answer was as expected, so his eyes turned on Wei Liao, the head of the Ministry of War.
Wei Liao had to stand up and smile and bow with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, disarmament is of great importance and requires caution and meticulousness. If Your Majesty decides to abolish the Northwest Army, it is necessary to discuss countermeasures slowly after the three provinces and six ministries. You must not act too rush, otherwise you may leave trouble!"
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of War is right. Disarmament requires a complete solution. It is better to slow down than to hurry!" An official from the Ministry of War stood up and posted it to his boss.
"I and others agree that disarmament is related to the safety of the country. Please do not worry too much!"
A large group of officials stood up in an instant in the court.
Now, the best way is, after all, the 300,000-strong army of the imperial court is still unaffordable.
Moreover, the Qin Dynasty's economy is slowly recovering and developing, and perhaps this matter will be left in two or three years.
Whether to sever the military or not is the emperor's business, but once the order to sever the military is in a state of disarmament, it will instantly become a matter for the three provinces and six ministries. Once the military soldiers have a mutiny due to inappropriate resettlement, I don't know how many officials will be insured.
Chen Xu looked at the large group of officials who stood up and couldn't help but thrust his face a few times.
Lazy politics, this is the most typical lazy politics.
The matter is not up to you. The officials of the Qin Dynasty have begun to transform into a group of real bureaucrats, never caring about people's livelihood, and are so short-sighted that they are almost helpless.
But obviously the emperor is not a short-sighted person. Instead, his eyes had already crossed the Western Regions and landed in a vast world thousands of miles away. Therefore, he shook his head with a solemn expression: "I have thought deeply for a long time. The threat from the Northwest Hungary and Hu has been eliminated. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers should also return home to enjoy the military rewards they deserve. 40,000 new horsemen are enough to guard the northwest border. I think the matter of disarmament is imperative. As long as it is properly placed, you will still think of a proper placement for me!"
The group of ministers who stood up sat down with shame.
This time, the mass irrigation top patch has been obviously ignored.
Li Si and Feng Quji looked at each other, and then Feng Quji stood up, "Since Your Majesty is determined to abolish the Northwest Army, I think it can be modeled after the plan of dividing the surrendered soldiers of the six countries last year, and the differentiated and resettled according to the military merits and titles. Those without military titles will be dismissed and returned home. They will be given money, grain and even compensated for land and real estate according to their military merits, and will be reborn as civilians, and farming and doing business!"
"Well, Feng Xiang's words are reasonable, but how should anyone with title be placed? Please come up with countermeasures!" Qin Shihuang nodded slightly.
Feng Quji's face was a little distorted. He held the tablet in his hand and pondered for a long time and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, who is difficult to resettle now, it should be the top priority. All land and real estate are easy to say, but the salary is difficult to compensate. According to the recent mobilization of the Northwest Army in the Ministry of War to check the military list of the Northwest Army, the number of titles is no less than 100,000, and the salary of the sir is low. The county can also raise money and grain to settle on its own. However, the military title above the doctor is equivalent to the official. According to the law related to the salary of the Great Qin army, the same official position must be given. I have never had a good method for several days. Your Majesty forgives the crime, and the old minister does not know what to do!"
After a slight commotion in the court, there was a whisper of discussion.
What Feng Quji is talking about is the biggest obstacle to disarmament.
Because the laws of military merits of the Qin Dynasty have long been mature and the regulations are extremely detailed. As long as the military title is taken away from the crime, once the military title is discharged, there will be generous rewards and resettlement. For example, if you have only a fourth-level military title in Qinghe Town, Liu Po, was appointed as the police station director, which is equivalent to the position of police station director. You can dominate the town, and those with lower titles can serve as the head of the pavilion and the father of the pavilion, and they can be named hunters again. They do not need to farm fields like civilians to pay a large amount of grain tax.
The county magistrate of Chi County, Fang Kuan, and the military title of seventh level, can serve as five hundred masters. If he is equivalent to a lieutenant in the army, he can be considered an intermediate officer.
But for ordinary soldiers, the accumulation of military ranks to level seven is basically over, and it is almost impossible to go up, because the eighth-level public rank can serve as commanders, and can use buses to enter and exit. There are 300 households with fiefs, which do not require service and have entered and entered and entered and entered, and have entered the ranks of high-ranking ranks. The ninth-level military rank can serve as generals to lead troops alone to fight wars, enjoying the same treatment as doctors, and have 600 households with fiefs.
The biggest problem in relocating these middle and senior officials is not salary compensation, but fiefs and positions.
The 300,000 troops were dismissed, including at least a few thousand middle and high-ranking titles. The fiefs and fiefs could disrupt the grassroots counties and townships. If one or two high-ranking titles were placed in a county, the national tax revenue of the county would instantly fall.
Although I don't want to give it, I have to give it.
Giving the economic order that shakes the Qin Dynasty, not giving it will make the soldiers who have worked for the Qin Dynasty disappointed for more than ten years. If the country is really in turmoil in the future, these people may be a disaster, and the prestige of the court will plummet.
In addition to fief, the most troublesome problem is also the placement of positions.
According to the military title regulations, officials with a level 5 doctor or above are officials, but the officials of the Qin Dynasty have already been full of squats in one carrot and one pit. There are countless candidates waiting for the officials to be replaced. How to place hundreds or thousands of middle and high-ranking soldiers in the absence of a pit!
Countless people in the court were shaking their beards and shaking their heads.
Obviously, I don’t know where to think of a way to properly place the best of both worlds.
"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the disarmament will still be suspended!" Li Si stood up after a long silence.
"Your Majesty, what Li Xiang said is reasonable. Disarmament is not a good time now!"
Behind Li Si, another group of officials stood up and put on the sticker.
Qin Shihuang was very depressed and his face looked a little ugly.
At the critical moment, the civil and military officials in the court seemed to be of little use.
"Does Meng Qing have a good plan?" Qin Shihuang's eyes fell on Meng Yi, who was like a statue.
Meng Yi stood up expressionlessly, glanced at Chen Xu and said, "Your Majesty, why not ask the Marquis of Jingyang?"
"Yes, the Queen of Qinghe must have a good idea!"
The civil and military officials in the court lit up almost at the same time, and then they turned their heads in one go like a group of emperor penguins, and their eyes fell on Chen Xu like a flashlight beam.
Qin Shihuang shook his face slightly, then turned his head and looked at Chen Xu with a happy look, "Does the young master have any good plans?"
Chen Xu and Shi Ran stood up calmly, took out a few pieces of hemp pulp and paper from his sleeves like a jingling cat, bowing.
"Your Majesty, I heard the Great Sect's memorial on disarmament half a month ago, and I also felt that the disarmament would be of great benefit to our Great Qin. Therefore, I have been thinking about it for a long time and wrote a memorial on dismissing the Northwest Army. Today I will present it to Your Majesty!"
"Wow~" There was a clear commotion in the civil and military officials in the court, and many people showed expressions of joy, excitement, jealousy or incredible on their faces.
The CRRC Mansion ordered Su Yue to walk down the nine-story steps himself, took a few pieces of hemp pulp and paper from Chen Xu, and placed it carefully and respectfully on the imperial case in front of the emperor.
"Your Majesty, please read the memorial of the Marquis of Qinghe!"
"Marty of Jingyang is indeed my good teacher and friend. I have already prepared it. I am very pleased..."
Qin Shihuang smiled and nodded, and picked up a few pieces of hemp pulp and looked carefully. Soon the expression on his face became extremely strange, sometimes serious, sometimes relaxed, sometimes entangled and frowned.
Qin Shihuang actually looked at a few pieces of hemp pulp and paper three times, then twisted his beard and pondered for a long time, and then slowly showed a relaxed and refreshing smile on his face.
"My little...it's really a wonderful strategy. Since this, the matter of laying off the army is no longer a problem!"
"Wow~~" A more intense restlessness sounded in the court instantly.
Unexpectedly, Qinghe Hou had really prepared a good plan for disarmament.
Many people stood up and tiptoed and stretched their necks as if they wanted to see the content written on the mahjong paper in the emperor's hand, but Chen Xu, who was sitting nearest, was still several feet away, not to mention other ministers, who could not see anything clearly at more than ten feet away.
"Your Majesty, I wonder what a wonderful strategy the Marquis of Qinghe wrote. Can you read it out and solve the questions for me?" An official from the Ministry of Revenue couldn't wait to bow and ask loudly.
"Shi Cheng Liu's words are reasonable, and I would like to ask Your Majesty to answer your questions for me!"
Almost all the officials in the court stood up, including Li Si and Feng Quji.
Everyone was curious, feeling like a cat's paws scratching in his heart a few times.
Such a difficult difficulty was solved by Qinghehou in just a few pieces of hemp pulp paper. What method was used?
"Su Mansion, let me tell you about the placement plan of the Marquis of Jingyang!" Qin Shihuang handed the hemp pulp and paper to Su Yue with ease.
