Otherworldly Castle Era

　　 Two days later, there will be a meeting. Although it was only a minor meeting, because it was during the reform period, the minor meeting became a major meeting.

　　 At the North Korean meeting, Zhang Juzheng, in front of all the people in the Palace of the Central Committee, formally proposed a tax reform proposal.

　　 After the approval of Yang Song, the tax reform plan was passed quickly with the second agreement of the military division Liu Ji and the administration of Xun Yu.

　　 Of course, no one raised objections during the process. Among them, Yang Zhong, who was in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, raised the most objection.

　　 "Enlighten the Lord! The minister thinks that this plan is entirely aimed at the king, so the minister disagrees with this plan." This is what Yang Zhong said when he publicly opposed it at the Palace of Parliament.

　　 It’s not that Yang Zhong didn’t know that after the implementation of this reform, there would be great resistance to Xia’s finances.

　　 He is now Yang Song's chief steward. Yang Song has so many properties under his control. From his point of view, these tax plans are all directed towards the king's private property.

　　 In this way, Yang Zhong certainly has to oppose it. If he doesn't oppose it, isn't it because someone else is on the highway, and he, the chief of internal affairs, is incompetent!

　　 But in the end, with Yang Song's consent, his objections were of no avail, and the curtain on tax reform came to an end.

　　……

　　 "Enlighten you! The minister has a proposal for army building." Li Jing stood up and proposed: "The minister suggested that the whole army be reorganized."

　　 Yang Song asked solemnly: "Does it need to be like this?"

　　 Li Jing knew what Yang Song was asking, and replied: "Only in this way can we eliminate the dissatisfaction of the army and the generals."

　　 Yang Song nodded secretly, this is a good way.

　　 During this period, Yang Song and Li Jing and Liu Ji have repeatedly discussed the reform of the military many times. Although the military reform has been set, because of the special nature of the military, there has been no time to start.

　　 Zhang Wei and Yu Shu are still easy to handle, and they can be transferred back with a piece of king order. However, the elites of his hundreds of battles could not be wasted on the city guards.

　　 And the positioning of the army that Huo Qubing is about to command is a cavalry brigade that has always been full of cavalry, but Zhang Wei has only one battalion of light cavalry, which is far from the size of a brigade.

　　Warhorse is enough, that is, fighters who have not been trained in place, especially the warriors.

　　How to arrange the extra infantry? Where can the vacant fighters be filled? So things about the army didn't get stuck.

　　 "But this number is not enough, right?" Yang Song immediately asked Li Jing.

　　 Yang Song didn't think about this method, but no matter how it was reorganized, there were only 7,000 fighters. There was a gap of more than one brigade of fighters from the goal of three brigades and two battalions.

　　Three brigades: the conventional infantry brigade under the command of Di Qing and Lu Su; the cavalry brigade under the command of Huo Qubing and Liu Qi; and the city guard under Zhang Wei.

　　 The two battalions are Yang Song’s Janitor and Jinyiwei. The two battalions also had only half of the soldiers.

　　 "Yes, even if the reorganization is to be carried out, the whole army will still have a gap of 4,600 people." Li Jing replied with a fist and immediately suggested: "Therefore, in order to fill such a big gap, the minister proposes to implement a compulsory military system!"

　　 "For this reason, the minister suggested that a new army be built. The soldiers of this army are not elite soldiers, but conscripts." Li Jing said the solution to the shortage of soldiers.

He continued to explain his method: "Soldiers enlisted in the compulsory military system only need to serve for three years. During the period of service, those who perform well can supplement the Progressive Brigade or the Cavalry Brigade. Those who perform well can enter the City Guard. The messengers will retire directly. And during the conscripts’ service period, they can also guard all important domestic military points."

"The conscription of conscripts is held once a year, with rotations every three years. In a few years, there will be more and more elite fighters in Xia's country. There will be more than three brigades, five or ten, and the future will be satisfying." In the end, Li Jing quite felt that more is better.

　　 Yang Song frowned and listened to the explanation, but did not immediately agree to the plan. Instead, he asked Liu Ji: "Bowen, according to the second policy, how long will it take to fill up the existing establishment?"

"Back to the Lord, after the implementation, there will be no new recruits in the first year. Only from the second year will the first batch of outstanding soldiers be added to the existing establishment. The calculation is based on the size of one brigade a year. It takes at least two years to fill the existing establishment." Liu Ji replied.

　　 Yang Song got the answer he wanted, nodded, and asked Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, how many people will this Congress have by the end of this year?"

　　 "Enlighten you! The current population has reached 500,000, and it is expected to increase to 800,000 by the end of the year!" After Xun Yu answered, he was still a little bit impressed by the speed of this development.

　　 "What about in those two years?" Yang Song continued to ask.

　　 Xunyu smiled slightly and replied: "In two years, Yichen estimates that there will be at least 1.5 million."

　　 With a population of 1.5 million and an army of more than 15,000, the ratio of one to one hundred is a bit small, but it is more than enough for defense.

　　 Unexpectedly, Li Jing's vision was so long, and he had such a thorough view of Xia Guo's development speed. This is indeed a famous strategist!

　　 "Haha, let's do it according to the plan of the pharmacist!" Yang Song laughed, happy that he had so many outstanding talents.

　　 Li Jing also smiled slightly and said: "The minister takes the life!"

　　 Regarding the reorganization of the entire army, Li Jing has worked hard. He decided to complete this reorganization as soon as possible during the time when the enemy outside Shanhaiguan had no time to take care of the Xia State.

　　In his plan, he will accompany Huo Qubing and Liu Qi with Jun Ling to Shanhaiguan for a grand election for the whole army.

　　 Li Jing wanted to select the most elite battalion from the two existing brigades, transfer it back to Apocalypse City, and add it to Yang Song’s Imperial Guard and Jinyi Guards.

　　The remaining elites, according to the organization, first reorganized the infantry brigade, and they are responsible for guarding Shanhaiguan and defending Xia's borders.

　　 The rest can be assembled into Huo Qubing's cavalry brigade on horseback. The dissatisfied cavalry brigade was stationed in the former Shangdao City, where it trained and served as a backup defensive force.

　　 The last remaining seed will be taken by Zhang Wei to return to Apocalypse City with him as the seed of the city guard, and he will start to take up the post of his guard bureau and become his chief.

　　 And Li Jing will call back the soldiers who were disabled in the previous wars of Xia, and take these disabled fighters to start recruiting conscripts for recruit training.

　　 Originally, it was Yang Xin's responsibility to train recruits and recruit soldiers, but Yang Xin used to only manage and conduct simple training on militias.

　　 So there is no experience. This time, Li Jing led Yang Xin to demonstrate. After Yang Xin knows about this program ~www.novelmtl.com~, Yang Xin will train recruits, and Li Jing will lead the conscripts.

　　 There is no suitable manpower, so Li Jing, a strategist who specializes in overall planning, can only lead an army.

　　 After there are enough manpower in the future, the conscript army will also have to be responsible for special generals.

　　 In fact, there is another way to expand and reorganize the army, and that is to average the soldiers of the two existing brigades into three brigades, and then fill the three brigades with qualified conscripts.

　　 This way, the three brigades can have the power of one battle quickly, but in this way, the combat power of the three brigades is only the power of one battle. There is no guarantee.

　　 If it was normal, Yang Song would definitely have done this, but it was precisely because Xia Kingdom now has hostile forces, it is necessary to have a powerful army to provide guarantee for Xia Kingdom.

　　 Li Jing also didn't make this suggestion because he knew this situation.

　　 This method is to sacrifice the combat effectiveness of the two brigades in exchange for the time to quickly become an army.

　　 The current method is to sacrifice the time to quickly form an army in exchange for a powerful army.

　　 Time, Xia Guo is still sufficient for the time being, otherwise Yang Song will not carry out a comprehensive reform at this time-thanks to the team of assassins trained by Chen Ping.
