Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and pondered.
There was always a reason why a huge empire would go from a prosperous era to a chaotic one.
Especially when he fell from the peak of the feudal society. He might be able to learn from the lessons and reasons.
He chose the best policies and used them on Great Qin.
He analyzed the reason behind the decline of the golden age and could not repeat it!
Now that Great Qin had just been established, he believed that his achievements surpassed the Three Royals and Five Emperors, and that he had single-handedly created the Great Qin Empire.
The autocratic monarch, the system of prefectures and counties, and the system of three dukes and nine ministers were like three carriages pulling the Great Qin forward.
And he was the coachman of the carriage!
As the First Emperor, he opened up the world and unified the universe, but he was also a little confused.
As a pioneer, he had to be careful with every step he took. If the carriage was too fast, it would be in danger of collapsing if it touched a small stone.
He couldn't help but be cautious.
Now that his descendants had created a more perfect system, it was impossible for him not to learn.
"Change the military system to a recruitment system? It's not suitable now."
Ying Zheng shook his head.
The so-called prefectural soldier system was that the common people would farm when they were busy, participate in military training when they were idle, and bring their own weapons, armor, and horses to fight in the war.
This was similar to the Qin Dynasty's farming system.
The advantage was that it could stimulate and alleviate the country's financial shortage, and it would not delay agricultural production.
The disadvantage was that the soldiers were of varying quality, and the weapons they brought were also uneven, with both good and bad.
As for the recruitment system, it referred to the recruitment of brave civilians as soldiers. The soldiers 'salaries were given by the state, and their food and accommodation were also provided by the state. Weapons and armor were also covered by the state.
The advantage of the recruitment system was that the quality of the soldiers recruited was extremely high. They were brave and fierce in battle, and they were not afraid of death.
The disadvantage was that the country had to pay the army every month, and they had to solve the problem of food, accommodation, armor, and weapons.
Over the years, it would be a heavy burden on the country's finances.
Only the peak of a feudal dynasty like the Kaiyuan era could afford to recruit so many soldiers.
Now Qin Chao didn't have that much money, so he could only give up.
"Chongzhen's guard system?"
Ying Zheng pondered for a moment, then nodded and shook his head.
The Ming Dynasty's Wei Suo system was simply to enlist the soldiers and generals who fought in the war into the military. From then on, all soldiers could only be members of the military.
The son of a soldier was still a soldier.
Once a military member went to the guardhouse, the whole family would be exempted from corvee.
The advantage was stability!
The disadvantage was stability!
stability meant decay.
A soldier's child might not be suitable to be a soldier. He might be able to become a High Scholar if he studied, but because of the military household system, he could only be a weak soldier.
In the long run, the strength of the soldiers would be worrying.
However, the top-down military management system of the Wei Agency was quite interesting.
All the guards were managed by the five military governors, so they did not have to worry about the army generals overpowering them. Moreover, the five military governors were restricted by the court because of the issue of military pay and food.
Ying Zheng secretly noted this down.
As for the military management system of the Song Dynasty, he was too lazy to even look at it.
The Song Dynasty's military achievements were too shameful, and it was impossible for them to have any outstanding military system.
He thought of the regional commanders mentioned in the video and secretly decided that in the future, the local officials would never be able to hold power alone.
Military, political, and financial were independent, but they kept each other in check.
In addition to the imperial court's imperial censors, they could stabilize the place.
The position of the imperial censor was not bad and could be established in the imperial court.
It just so happened that the imperial censors were too weak and could not control the Prime Minister at all. They could be strengthened appropriately.
On the other hand, it was the Grand Commandant who held the military power. This was a very important and sensitive position. Ever since Wei Liaozi, he hadn't set it up for a long time.
However, if a department similar to the five military governors was set up to replace the Grand Commanders, then the restrictions on military power would be much better.
There was also the imperial examination system. This was also a good thing. It was a pity that knowledge was hard to find in the world now. 99% of the people were illiterate. If the imperial examination was held, the court would probably be filled with people from the Hundred Schools of Philosophy.
This matter must be planned slowly.
That's right! There were also outsiders!
Ying Zheng suddenly remembered the root cause of the An Lushan Rebellion, and his eyes lit up.
It was An Lushan who had joined forces with the Khitans, Shiwei, and many other foreign tribes to rebel together, thus creating the eight-year chaos.
Those who are not of our race must have different hearts!
Ying Zheng opened his eyes and gave an order,
"From today onwards, members of other races are not allowed to hold official positions or enter the army. Those who harass the people will be beheaded!”
No matter what, the people of the Six Nations were all Chinese. They were all from the same origin. Why?
The An Lushan Rebellion could not happen in the Great Tang!
The civil and military officials understood that the First Emperor had given such an order because of the An Shi Rebellion. However, they did not like outsiders, so they naturally agreed.
"As Your Majesty commands!"
"There's more!"
Ying Zheng thought of the scene where Li Longji was obsessed with Yang Yuhuan, and smiled.
"The future emperors of the Great Qin Empire must not be overly obsessed with women.”
"This is the ancestral rule!"
The historical juncture of the Northern Song Dynasty.
Zhao Kuangyin's face was ashen as he looked at the yellow-robed man and the group of forbidden items in front of him.
These were all found in Zhao Guangyi's Jin Mansion.
Although he already knew that Zhao Guangyi had the intention to rebel.
However, even though he knew, he still could not endure the rage in his heart when he saw the yellow robe he had hidden with his own eyes.
"Men! Poison wine! Send Prince Jin on his way!"
He never expected that after he gave up his military power with a cup of wine, the generals did not rebel. Instead, it was his second brother, whom he had never paid attention to, who had the idea of rebellion.
Emperors hated betrayal the most, let alone the betrayal of their loved ones.
The next day, Zhu Di stretched and said in a good mood,"
"Haha, look at them. The only treacherous official of my Great Ming Dynasty is still ranked ninth, and it's even a monster that was sent down when Great Ming was about to die.”
"As the saying goes, when a country is about to fall, there must be a monster.”
"Our Great Ming is much stronger than the other dynasties. The other dynasties are all treacherous officials who appeared in peaceful times. Other than a traitor who died when our Great Ming was subjugated, there is not a single treacherous official on the rankings.”
Zhu Gaochi's fat face twitched violently. He hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and said,"
"Father, why don't you raise your head? The video has been updated."
