In Kaifeng Prefecture, the personnel adjustments of the two prefectures have been completed.

Today, the Political Affairs Hall was led by the newly appointed Prime Minister and the Grand Secretary of Jixian Academy, He Zhizhong.

The emperor still did not pay tribute. After the prime ministers saluted to the empty imperial throne in the Chuigong Hall, they gathered in the Political Affairs Hall to discuss the important political affairs that should be dealt with today and the country's future major policies and policies.

"The rice fields in Taifu Temple have been included in the latest account book for the capital inspection of hidden fields. A total of more than 3,000 hectares of hidden fields were found, and more than 5,000 hectares of land with different land taxes! It is really shocking!" He Zhizhong Gao sat in the main hall where Cai Jing once sat, and took the hot report from Taifu Temple first. "He Li also reported that the land of the capital is prevalent, and the land of the people is 97 or 100,000,000,000 farmers have no size of land, so they become customers. Most of the remaining farmers only have a few acres of thin fields, which are not enough to make a living, and they have to rent gentry fields. He also said that in the long run, the country will not be a country... I wonder what you think?"

Ci Xiangjiyi gently turned the teacup in her hand and said in a serious tone: "He Wenzhen's words are reasonable, and the style of annexation in our dynasty is indeed too much."

These days, Ji Yi has tried hard to dress herself up as a "progressive" and has a close relationship with the retro party. She also recommends the four people who have not yet been awarded official positions among the six retro gentlemen, and acts like a big use of the retro party. The Prime Minister He Zhizhong is also confused. Ji Yi is a famous "vulgar official". Since he was appointed, he has been working for profit. He is also a wealthy and gentry. The land under his name is definitely one of the top officials among the officials today. How can he pretend to be noble?

He Zhizhong frowned and said, "Remembering this, it is a practice of the state's ancestral system. If it is changed suddenly, it will cause shock to the Shilin and the world will be uneasy!"

"What Dazai said is very much. However, nowadays, the common people are in poverty, and many of them have become refugees, so they cannot help but think of some solutions. Why not first divide the more than 3,000 hectares of Gyeonggi Road to the extremely poor farmers who have no land and no land on Gyeonggi Road so that they can live in peace."

What!?

Divide land to the poor!?

This time He Zhizhong was not shocked, even the prime ministers of several "new party" or "restoration party" were also shocked.

Tong Guan, who had just returned from the northwest, held his only beard and said, "According to He Wenzhen's report, the real estate obtained from Qingtian should be awarded to the government soldiers, and each household should be given 30 acres. More than 3,000 hectares can be awarded more than 10,000 households. That would be more than 10,000 soldiers!"

Ji Yi smiled: "Can the 30 acres of land near Kaifeng Prefecture support a soldier? Brother Daofu, don't joke. Almost all the land near Kaifeng Prefecture is dry and not fertile at all. Unless it is the contoured vegetable fields, you can make more money.

Otherwise, if a mu of land is hard to cultivate, the average income is only a few buckets of stone, and more than 100 kilograms. How much can a 30 mu of land be obtained? It is only more than 40 stones. How much can a stone be obtained? How can a soldier be supported?

Moreover, a good family business cannot help but have many descendants! Now, 30 acres of land are granted, and it will be divided into three parts in just over ten or twenty years. What kind of soldiers are there to raise?"

It is indeed not enough to raise a soldier in 30 acres of dry land. In Yan land, Wu Haogu raised a soldier in 150 acres of dry land, which was four times more!

Moreover, the Zhou State was the first republic, which was different from the loose Song State. The Zhou State was at a time when it was "its rise was booming", holding high the banner of the world as the public, being a citizen and a parliamentary, both of whom were serious and united.

Therefore, the inheritance system of the eldest son of the vocational field (actually one son) can be strictly implemented. It can ensure that 150 acres (100 acres on black soil) of the countryside will not be inherited by property.

At the same time, it can also ensure that the country soldiers who are unable to serve and who have lifelong citizenship can enjoy the country for life. If they cannot serve, they must pay taxes. If they are disabled (must be injured in the military), they can be exempted from taxes.

However, in the actual implementation process, as long as the soldiers of the government have heirs to serve, they will not enjoy this exemption.

Because the heirs of lifelong citizens only have the status of temporary citizens, their treatment has dropped a lot. They must accumulate years of hard work and be promoted to military achievements, so they must serve early to ensure promotion to lifelong citizens.

If you can be promoted to an officer with all your merits, even the lowest-level officer can become a knight class, and the land you receive will be awarded more than ten times more!

Even if you cannot become a knight, military merits can be used to exchange for a generous bounty.

Considering the probability of the Zhou Republican Army winning the foreign war, joining the army is definitely more cost-effective than sitting at home and lying on his parents...

The situation in the Song Dynasty was completely different. The 200 mu of land in the northwest (the land in the northwest is too poor, and the 200 mu is far from the 150 mu of Yan land, but it is much better than the 30 mu of Kaifeng Prefecture) has only been passed down for how many years? How many Western Army, and the land in the Shuofang Army sold land in the ritual (the land of the government cannot be transferred in theory)?

The military soldiers in the northwest, where the military head generals are very powerful, can't even keep their land, so they can't even think about it near Kaifeng Prefecture, where wealthy families gather.

Therefore, Ji Yi did not fully adopt the suggestions of the retro six gentlemen, but instead proposed a more politically correct way to divide the found hidden fields to the terrestrial sluts!

If Wu Haogu knew about this, he might think that Ji Yi's soul also came from later generations and was mostly China in the 1950s and 1960s...

"Reminisce, how much land do you plan to allocate to the extremely poor farmers on Jingji Road?" Zhang Kegong asked with a frown.

His family is Kaifeng Generals, and he is a big landlord! There are also many hidden fields, and this time, the retro party members found a lot!

"How many acres can I divide?" Ji Yi smiled, "Please give each household a few acres."

"What is enough for a few acres?" Zhang Ke said, "I can get less than ten stones of wheat a year, and the maximum is five or six hundred kilograms of noodles. Is it enough for a household to eat? And I have to pay the tax and pay the grain!"

Ji Yi smiled: "It's enough for retro party members to work hard... More than 3,000 hectares of land must be divided into 50,000 or 60,000 households. We have to divide it carefully, so we can't let the treacherous charity be greedy. Let He Wenzhen and the others do it and build a yamen for them."

He glanced at Tong Guan, Zhang Kegong, and Zhang Shuye, the three bureaucratic landlords with household registration in Kaifeng, "These more than 3,000 acres are all watching the whole world!"

It turned out that Ji Yi wanted to use a yamen to host Juntian to block the Reju Party so that they would not cause trouble.

Now the retro party members take the initiative to move closer to Ji Yi. As a traitor who has been in the officialdom for nearly 20 years, of course, they will not push these special troublesome Qingliu out.

"What should I do with the military soldiers?" Zhang Shuye asked. "Will the military system be implemented without the land granted? If the military system is not implemented, what military system should be implemented?"

Ji Yi smiled bitterly and said, "The soldiers who are in Shaanxi can't maintain their support. Can they still build new soldiers? At least in China, it's impossible to do so. How can foreign vassals discuss again.

As for the military system, I think we still have to recruit soldiers honestly!"

Zong Ze reminded: "The imperial guards were recruited and they cannot be beaten at all!"

"That's because the recruitment of troops was not done well!" Ji Yi said, "We have to delegate power to the battalion officials below! Can a certain soldier be asked to be the leader? They are using troops and training, and it is impossible to let them do so. The Privy Council, the Ministry of War only needs to supervise the battalion officials, whether they have empty quotas, whether they have deducted military pay and rations, whether they have occupied service, whether they are lax in training, whether they have lost equipment and horses, etc. There are so many civil servants in the Privy Council and the Ministry of War, are they afraid that they are not reliable in their guardians of three or four hundred battalions? Don't ask the officials below to intervene. The Ministry of War and the Privy Council will send personnel to supervise and conduct random inspections, so that they can have clear responsibilities."

Although Ji Yi was a treacherous minister, she had accumulated a lot of experience as a commander and a supervisor in the local government for a long time. She clearly understood the disadvantages of the Great Song Dynasty military system.

Knowing that the problem of recruiting soldiers is that grassroots officers cannot make decisions. The Ministry of War and the Privy Council do not supervise the Ministry of War. The civil servants of the Privy Council should have fulfilled their supervision responsibilities, but they had to come to command the war. The power of supervision is scattered among the eunuchs, local governments, and the two governments. As a result, they constrain each other and no one really manages the matter.

The treacherous minister paused and said, "And don't recruit soldiers in the city. You have to go to remote areas to recruit soldiers. Only the remote areas can you send elite troops! Go to Shaanxi, Huaixi, Hedong, and Jinghu South Road to recruit soldiers. You cannot allow soldiers to take your family to live in the camp. The military camp should look like a military camp.

When you serve as a soldier, you have to be in the camp at all times and practice every day. You can’t live at home, so how can you fight?

If you don’t bring your family, you don’t have to make a bunch of messy things, and you will discount them all. The soldiers’ food and clothing are all paid by the military camp, and they just need to make money. And don’t work for decades. What’s the use of becoming an old man? At most, let them work for ten years, save some money and go back to their hometown to get married and have children."

The recruitment of soldiers in the Song Dynasty was really strange. Most of the soldiers were uncles with wives and children. It was okay for uncles, as long as they were in good health, they would not be unable to join the army. The problem was that those who served in the army could not bring their wives and children to the military camp! They would not become ordinary people who checked in to work with their families? The advantages of recruiting soldiers were not able to be used at all, and they became worse than those of the government soldiers who combined soldiers and farmers.

"Where is the money?" He Zhizhong asked, "Where does the money come from?"

"Dispel all the imperial guards!" Ji Yi said, "As old as he is, why are you still a soldier? If you disperse, you will be over. The money spent by the imperial guards can maintain 300 infantry battalions of the new army and 20 cavalry battalions of the new army. With 320 battalions, the court will not be afraid of Zhou and Jin!"

The 300 infantry battalions have a full 240,000 entries, and the 20 cavalry battalions have a full 36,000 people. The total number is 276,000 people. If you have a little more than enough battle, including the logistics and the soldiers of the yamen at all levels, it is 350,000.

With the average annual expenditure of 100 yuan per employee, it is enough for the court to have 35 million military expenditures on the new army. The Navy spent up to 15 million yuan, and a total of 50 million yuan can ensure the national defense security of the Song Dynasty in peacetime.

For the Song Dynasty court, whose annual income could be maintained at 70 million yuan, although this military expenditure was heavy, it was not unbearable.

At this time, Tong Guan suddenly asked, "But the imperial guards have dispersed, how do you arrange so many imperial guards?"
