Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

When Guo Ye saw this, he said that, if he didn't say it, it would be too hypocritical. In the end, he offended Lu Chengqing, the governor, and even Kang Yueshan didn't bother to pay attention to him.

It is absolutely impossible to do things that do not please both ends.

Immediately, he gritted his teeth and took out from his bosom the thing that he had dictated and written by Guan Jiujiu, and handed it to him.

Seeing that Guo Ye didn't speak, Lu Chengqing handed himself a roll of rice paper with black ink stains on it. He was a little puzzled, but he still took it.Slowly opened the scroll with both hands, and took a closer look...

"Suggestions on how to use the waters of the Minjiang River to strengthen public security and increase taxes in the six counties of Yizhou"

……

What jumped into Lu Chengqing's eyes was such a blunt but straightforward title. He didn't delve into the way the title was written, but read it patiently and slowly.

The entire article is about [-] characters long, and Lu Chengqing can only sneer at it when it comes to whether the rhetoric is gorgeous or not.

But Lu Chengqing already understood the specific meaning of this straightforward article, and exclaimed in his heart:

This Guo Ye is really a genius!

At such a young age, I was able to think so clearly and far-reachingly. I could think of using the Minjiang River Basin surrounding the six counties of Yizhou to strengthen the six counties of Yizhou and turn them into a big fortress that will help each other. Checkpoints are set up in the waters of the Minjiang River to intercept passing merchant ships to collect taxes, and to allow passing merchant ships to willingly pay for the road.

Without him, he was responsible for protecting the Minjiang River along the way when he had collected the other party's checkpoint fees, and was not robbed by water bandits.

As long as there is a brainy businessman, he will be willing to pay a small amount of customs duties if the loss of merchant ships and goods ends up costing people and money.

Which is more important, has its own public opinion.

In this way, not only the local law and order will be eliminated, but the tax revenue of the Yizhou government will be increased, and more importantly, this is a political achievement, a solid political achievement.

Not bad, really good.

However, there are also some flaws in this messy and so-so proposal, that is, the kid Guo Ye volunteered to ask for the inspection department in charge of the six counties.

To put it bluntly, it is shamelessly asking for power, and it is not a small one.

He will not only serve as the inspector of Longxi County, but also concurrently serve as the inspector of Bashu, Wuzhong and other five counties.

Seeing this, Lu Chengqing also felt that Guo Ye was crazy, he was simply out of his mind, and he had never heard of anyone who concurrently served as the nine-rank patrol inspector of six county yamen.

Really unheard of.If his request is really granted, isn't this an official joke?To let other states and counties know, you have to laugh your ass off.At that time, his reputation as the governor of Yizhou will be ruined, and he will not be able to raise his head in the central Sichuan area.

But Guo Ye's plan really moved him too much.

At this time, he was like a mouse that was about to die of starvation. Seeing a big and fat piece of pork belly in front of him, he wished he could run over and grab it in his mouth. Unfortunately, the fat was on the mousetrap.

Contradictions, entanglements!

"Ha ha……"

Lu Chengqing put the scroll in his hand on the table, opened his mouth with a wry smile, and sighed to Guo Ye: "Guo inspector is young, but he has great ambitions. He wants to monopolize the position of inspector in six counties."

When Guo Ye heard it, he knew that Lu Chengqing's words were not a compliment, but a disguised form of hurting him.

But he knew that Lu Chengqing had more to say, so he remained calm and waited for the next sentence.

Sure enough, Lu Chengqing shook his head, pointed at Kang Bao, and said, "What you proposed is definitely a great thing, and I do my best to approve it. But what you asked for, let alone Kang Xiaowei's father, Even this official can't agree to you, it's difficult, it's really too difficult, there has never been such a precedent in the officialdom."

Geek!

Guo Ye's heart sank in an instant, thinking, numb, half dead from busy work, could it be that the effort was wasted?

In an instant,

The entire cabin fell into silence, Guo Ye's face was as deep as water and he said nothing, Lu Chengqing frowned and closed his eyes as if thinking hard, while Kang Bao scratched the back of his head, wondering what kind of riddle these two people were playing.

quiet,

The time for half a cup of tea is spent in silence...

Lu Chengqing had no choice but to rack his brains to recruit a son. Now that he was relegated from the capital Chang'an to a remote place like Yizhou in the middle of Shu, he really needed great political achievements to prove himself and aroused the attention of the Chang'an court again.

Some of Guo Ye's proposals are opportunities to bring him political achievements. Could it be possible to watch such a big opportunity quietly drifting past his eyes?

suddenly,

Lu Chengqing coughed lightly, breaking the silence, and mused thoughtfully: "Maybe we can change direction and find a compromise..."

Chapter 151

"what?"

Guo Ye's eyes lit up suddenly, and he blurted out, "What compromise?"

Lu Chengqing whispered: "Have you ever heard that each of the ten state capitals can form a certain number of regiments to train troops to protect the bandits and civil uprisings in the state?"

Regiment training?

Guo Ye was suddenly taken aback by this new term. He had heard of the Forbidden Army, Fubing, and Shence Sixth Army of the Tang Dynasty, including the feudal soldiers controlled by Jiedushi in the late Tang Dynasty.

But it was the first time he had heard of what this troop training regiment was about.

Seeing Guo Ye's expression of not knowing, Lu Chengqing thought to himself, no matter how many ghosts there are, he is still a nine-rank patrol inspector from a small place, who is ignorant and knows very little.

Then he turned his head and said to Kang Bao who was next to him, "Lieutenant Kang, you were born as a general and led the army. You must have heard of regimental training, right?"

When Kang Bao heard Lu Chengqing's question, he was overjoyed now. How dare this kid Guo Ye not know something?

Then he blinked his eyes at Guo Ye with complacency, and then returned to Lu Chengqing and said, "Lord Inspector is right, if you don't know what regimental training is, our old Kang family really has no face to hang around in the army." .”

Then he walked to Guo Ye's side and explained softly: "The regiment training soldiers are not part of the frontier army or the government soldiers, but an armed force under the control of the governors of various states. This army is not large in number and is mainly recruited from the people. About 150 households recruited [-] young men. These recruited young men are not registered in the military and do not go out of the state. For autumn and winter training, the state government is only responsible for rations of pickles, and does not pay the army."

I understand!

Guo Ye clicked his lips twice, and finally understood what the training regiment was doing.

Your sister, isn't it not much different from the militia reserve service of later generations, serving as soldiers in wartime and farming in leisure time, and unified military training in autumn and winter when farming is slack.

The militia, the militia, the people and the soldiers.

In the early 40s and [-]s, the militia changed its flavor, no different from the security forces.

In an instant, a certain red movie appeared in Guo Ye's mind, a box cannon slung over his body, a dog leg wearing a satin shirt and military boots, ran up to the little Japanese devils, one mouthful of a prince, I am the security team to work.

Fuck,

This is how the emotional group training is going on!

Immediately afterwards, Lu Chengqing said: "I have six counties under the jurisdiction of Yizhou, which are classified as medium-sized counties in Datang Prefecture. I can set up [-] regiments for training. If these [-] regiments are placed in the waters of the Minjiang River in the six counties, will they be able to serve as soldiers?" Starting to maintain the stability of the Baili waters and setting up checkpoints to collect taxes? Guo inspection!"
