The rules of the Pacific Institution formulated by Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty had many innate problems.
Even though the Ming Dynasty was established less than fifty years ago, the military system of the garrison has not been completely corrupt, but there are already clues that are difficult to maintain. It is very clear that military households would rather become refugees after a long period of escape.
Zhu Gaoxu also understood this.
When Taizu established the Ming Dynasty, order must be re-arranged from all aspects. There are many things to do, and there are inevitably unreasonable things.
It’s just that future generations have to continue to repair and improve it, and it is obviously not possible to stick to the ancestral system.
At noon the next day, Zhu Gaoxu invited civil and military officials in the middle hall of the old courtyard, including noble ministers who accompanied the army, officials of the three departments of Peking, and generals of the border guards who went to Peiping to report their duties.
The generals were arranged to come to report to the official business in a few days after that.
The banquets here are naturally different from those given by the imperial palace in the capital.
Nearly, the generals of the border army had attended the banquet with perfect etiquette in the palace. Some of them followed Zhu Gaoxu to the northern grasslands during the early Northern Expedition of Wude, and were used to the scene of having dinner together in the central army's tent.
After the bowing ceremony in the middle hall, it was noisy.
The generals had a loud voice, which made the atmosphere very lively.
The wine and meat were brought up, and everyone raised their glasses to wish Zhu Gaoxu blessings and said some good things like longevity in a mess.
After three times, Zhu Gaoxu took the initiative to pick up the wine glass and watched the civil and military officials in the lobby.Everyone stood up one after another, and the noise finally calmed down a little.
Zhu Gaoxu spoke and said straight: I will say a few words.Foreign trade will be charged with the management of the Maritime Procuratorate. Generals of the Guards and their families will not be allowed to take care of these matters in the future.You should perform your own duties, and soldiers only need to train troops to defend their territory.The court would then send people to issue laws and set up yamen to specialize in border trading.
Someone was talking in a low voice just now, and everyone didn't say anything, and the central hall became quieter.
Zhu Gaoxu then calmed down his tone and said kindly: However, I think we should improve the treatment of soldiers in the garrison and try to be fair.In the future, the salary of military generals should be paid in full. The soldiers who guard and fight will generally receive military pay like the soldiers of the Beijing camp.The military pay may be less, but I will reward you according to whether the soldiers of the Ministry of Revenue are diligent in practicing and whether they are diligent in practicing.In addition, the imperial court should re-arrange military supply methods and ensure the prices of grain and salt in border areas.
Everyone echoed: The Lord’s kindness, the Lord’s wisdom... The Lord’s chaotic atmosphere soon returned to the main hall.
Perhaps because Zhu Gaoxu said all the good things later, everyone was no longer nervous.
The previous words can only warn a few people.
Those who engage in smuggling transactions with the Urianha and Tatars should only be a few who can get the benefits, and most generals don’t care.
Dry!At this time, Zhu Gaoxu raised his glass and said.
The warriors also responded one after another and drank the wine one after another.Zhu Gaoxu hung the wine glass in the air and signaled that he would put it down, then picked up the chopsticks and started eating the food.
Anyway, he had already said it very clearly and understood it.
In the past, due to reasons such as accumulated illegitimate problems and neglect, Zhu Gaoxu was not too strict at the moment when he was not dealing with those generals who made money illegally; but today he clearly expressed his attitude, and it will be up to the performance of those generals in the future.
In the noisy atmosphere of cups and cups intertwining, Zhu Gaoxu was still thinking about the issue of military pay.
He estimated that the troops of the garrison in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, which were truly rotating in the guards, remained between 300,000 and 500,000.
The military troops in the garrison were divided into military farming and garrisons. The majority of the military households farmed in each garrison were not required to pay military salaries when the soldiers were farming. The same was true for the soldiers in the Beijing camp.
If each person gives three jin of new coins every year (the value of newly cast copper coins is twice that of old coins), the court's fixed military pay expenses will increase by one million to one.5 million coins every year, which is the expense that the court can afford at present.
Zhu Gaoxu could easily think that the military pay could not be set too high. If you want to motivate the soldiers, you could use the form of unfixed rewards.
In order to avoid not being able to pay military salaries directly when finances are not good, making the soldiers even more dissatisfied, and even mutiny is possible.
At the same time, Zhu Gaoxu was still planning to carry out comprehensive reforms to the military supply system of the border army.It is basically like the iron plant of the Nanshang Office of the Reform Commission, starting from the supply of raw materials and labor.
The armor, weapons, salt and grain of the garrison were originally like the supply system of the imperial court, and were scattered short-term supply, which was very chaotic; the quality of the things was mixed, and the responsibilities could not be found out.
Zhu Gaoxu is preparing to set up a long-term transfer envoy to conduct centralized procurement scheduling.
Including the salt merchants who participated in the development of China and France (the merchants used the merits of transporting military rations and other support to the border in exchange for salt turbulence). They originally took the certificates directly from the border generals to exchange for salt turbulence, and this power should also be taken back to the transferee.
By transferring, salt or cash, the materials in the hands of the merchant are purchased uniformly.
The way to ensure the price of grain in the border is also very simple. Zhu Gaoxu remembers the government's past collection of grain and subsidies for cash.
Now only granaries need to be built everywhere, and the grain of military soldiers is purchased and hoarded; at the same time, a maritime transportation line is established to transport more abundant materials from the south to the northern border, so that the government can provide enough priced food.
This series of ideas has increased the treatment of the soldiers on duty (military pay and rewards), and reduced the burden on military soldiers (paying money to purchase military food).The burden was passed on to the entire Ming Dynasty.
But Zhu Gaoxu believed that it was entirely necessary for the court to bear the big burden of border defense.
Taizu said back then that raising millions of soldiers is not enough to cost the people a meter or a meter. He has a good idea, but it will only cause the combat effectiveness of the garrison army to quickly deteriorate, and everyone wants to escape from military status.
The whole innovation must be carried out simultaneously.If you just spend money, the border will only soar due to currency input and lack of materials. Only a few profiteering merchants and colluding border generals will get cheaper.
The luncheon continued, but after that, it was the lyrics of the civil servants and the simple loyal compliments of the military generals, and Zhu Gaoxu almost didn't say anything more.
He was not unhappy, but wanted to make some generals more impressed by what he had only said today.
In the afternoon, Zhu Gaoxu retreated to the backyard and came to the study where he had stayed before.
Zhu Gaoxu wrote very well, but now he doesn't like writing things.It was just because his idea was a bit complicated that he wrote down everything and marked it with some black lines.
The domestic rectification is also closely related to the foreign vassals.To prohibit smuggling from border generals, they must open up trades, and even trade directly with the Tatar tribes, otherwise they will definitely not be able to resist.
The more forbidden things, the greater the benefits, and there will always be people willing to take risks.
Especially the three guards of Urianha, the Ming Dynasty did not directly rule them.
If the Tatars are banned from the materials, the Urianha people will definitely find ways to make a fortune in their current situation.
If you are too tough against the Urianha people, it is very likely to accelerate the alliance between the three Gurianha guards and the Korchin tribe.
Zhu Gaoxu remembered a certain era when the country issued a ban on alcohol, but it was the wine merchant who celebrated it.
The Tatars were willing to trade with the Ming Dynasty, and the situation turned around this year.
Although Arutai was for the purpose of conspiracy, he did send envoys to promise to be granted a title. If this matter continues to be promoted, then it would be legitimate to directly trade with the Ming and the Tatars.
In recent years, Alutai's operation has indeed been as fierce as a tiger. It not only provoked and tried to advance eastwardly, but also wanted to promote the alliance between the Korchin tribe and the Urianha tribe.
No wonder some ministers in the court were far more vigilant towards the Tatars than the Oirats.
But in Zhu Gaoxu's only knowledge of learning, he vaguely remembered that there was a very famous Tumu Fort incident in the Ming Dynasty and the major incident in which the emperor was captured. The mastermind was the Ola tribe.
With the insights and suggestions of some ministers in the court, Zhu Gaoxu also tended to believe that the Ola tribe may be gradually moving towards an upward period.
Arutai, the leader of the Asut tribe of Tatar, seemed to be a capable leader.However, the times create heroes, and even heroes are difficult to control the torrent of the general trend.
Zhu Gaoxu thought for a long time, and based on his previous judgments and his ministers, he roughly determined that it seemed that continuing to suppress the Tatar tribes as their biggest enemies at this time was no longer in line with the benefits of the Ming Dynasty.
It may be necessary to allow the Tatars to maintain a certain strength and become an important force to restrain the Oirat tribes in the west.
Zhu Gaoxu thought while writing hard.When he stopped, he suddenly noticed that someone seemed to be shaking outside the screen, so he spoke: Let's go in and say.
At this time, the eunuch Cao Fu bent over and walked in, bowed and said, "I saw that the emperor was busy, but I didn't dare to come in. I wanted to wait for the emperor to have time to talk about it."
Zhu Gaoxu took a look at the paper in front of him and realized that it was very sloppy and could hardly be recognized.
He put the brush next to the inkstone and looked up and said: It won’t take a moment, just ask someone to make a cup of tea.By the way, what did you do just now?
Cao Fu said: I will make tea now.Previously, Concubine Khan, Asari, wanted to see the emperor, and she took the initiative to see him. If the emperor did not want to see him, I would try to send her away.
Zhu Gaoxu said: Let her come and listen to what she wants to say.
yes.Cao Fu bowed, stepped back to the screen, and then turned around and walked out.
After a while, the palace maid Xiaohe came in first and brought a small bowl of tea.
She is a palace maid from the south. She seems to be accustomed to tea making there, and there is no tea in this bowl of tea.
Xiaohe first put a scarf, then put down the tea bowl, and said softly: Master, wait for a moment, be careful of being hot.
Zhu Gaoxu heard it very comfortably. This time he visited the Northern Tour, he had only two palace maids.
This palace maid who is not very beautiful and looks nearly thirty years old is not unreasonable to be chosen by Cao Fu for Zhu Gaoxu.
She was really gentle and considerate when doing some trivial things.
I surrender first.Xiaohe said tactfully again.
Zhu Gaoxu nodded and agreed, sitting there, waiting to see the Tatar Asari.
Even though the Ming Dynasty was established less than fifty years ago, the military system of the garrison has not been completely corrupt, but there are already clues that are difficult to maintain. It is very clear that military households would rather become refugees after a long period of escape.
