The garrison system was not first created by Cao Wei.
As far back as Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, there was a tradition of opening up wasteland in the border areas. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were also some open up wasteland in the Sanfu area.
However, most of these were military camps.
Therefore, Baili Ming's suggestion of building a large scale civilian settlement was like an earth-shattering existence to the three of them.
Amidst his shock, Zhou Yu hurriedly said,"
"Sir, what do you mean by large-scale settlement?”
Sun Jian and Sun Ce also hurriedly said,
"How should we do this?"
Hearing this, Baili Ming said,
"The so-called civilian settlement is the land that our army finances to open up. This land belongs to our army and all transactions are prohibited.”
"And these lands are used to receive refugees. The refugees only have the right to use them, but not the right to buy and sell them!”
"All the refugees who are settled by our army, those who use official oxen will get half of the harvest. If you use the private cow, we'll split it 30 - 70."
"Each village will have a Field Lieutenant under the direct management of our army.”
"If we implement this plan, the more refugees our army accepts, the greater our grain harvest will be!”
"At the same time, because these lands belong to our army, any aristocratic family that wants to occupy them will have to think twice!”
"In this way, while the refugee problem is solved, it can also solve the problem of our army's food supply!”
At this point, he smiled at the three of them and said,
"Isn't this the best of both worlds?”
When the three of them heard this, their spirits were lifted.
Even Zhou Yu's eyes lit up.
This strategy was really brilliant!
Although this would block the path for the aristocratic families to take in refugees, it would not cause any resistance from the aristocratic families.
At the same time, the local army had a plan, which was also a rare pioneering work!
This was equivalent to taking these lands as the private property of their army. Anyone who wanted to touch this piece of cake would have to consider how many heads they had!
Moreover, with these two foundations, the effectiveness of the land army was not inferior to the Qin country's farming system.
As long as there was an army, there would be a stable source of food, and this stable source of food would feed the army.
To them, this was killing two birds with one stone!
Thinking of all this, Zhou Yu stood up excitedly and bowed to Baili Ming,"
"Mister's plan is really a great plan for governing the country!”
"If we do this, the refugees can be treated and our army will be strong!”
"Yes, I am!"
Sun Jian sighed with emotion when he heard this.
"I didn't understand when Ruo Zhong mentioned the people's village just now. Now that I hear it, it's really a great killing weapon!”
"I didn't expect that Ruozhong's talent in governing the country is rare in the world.”
As he said that, he looked at Baili Ming with increasing surprise.
The military advisor was really amazing. Not only was his resourcefulness and military strategy amazing, but even his governance was far inferior!
What a talent for the Prime Minister!
Even Sun Jian himself didn't realize that, in a sense, his mentality was gradually changing.
As his power grew, his mentality was slowly changing from a traditional general to a fierce and ambitious person in troubled times.
And his view of Baili Ming had gradually changed from a genius who could fight wars to a person who could help him govern the country.
The difference between the two could be described as heaven and earth.
To put it simply, he had slowly become a warlord who had conquered the world.
Of course, he couldn't notice this difference now.
His only thought now was whether he should really add this part-time job to Baili Ming.
It was such a pity that a great talent like the military counselor was just idle in the army!
With this thought in mind, he quickly smiled at Baili Ming and said,"
"Ruo Zhong, since you proposed these strategies, why don't you take over after our army takes over Yangzhou?”
However, when Baili Ming heard this, he hurriedly shook his head and said,"
"No, no, my lord's suggestion is absolutely not allowed!”
He smiled bitterly and said,
"Putting forward these strategies is feasible, but implementing these policies is a difficult task!”
"I can't do it alone, but even if I can, I can't do it in two places!”
He naturally knew that Sun Jian had good intentions, but he wasn't willing to do something that would offend someone and not get him any benefits!
And just as he said, it was too tiring!
With his current status, he did not need to prove himself through such achievements.
"This... That's a problem!"
Hearing this, Sun Jian frowned and said,"
"If Zhong is unwilling to do this, who else under me can do this?”
Here, he discovered another problem with his subordinates, which was the lack of talent to govern the country.
However, Old Sun had always had the same attitude towards such problems. If he could not solve them, he would look for the military counselor.
As he thought about it, he looked at Baili Ming and said,
"Military counselor, do you have any recommendations?"
"There are candidates!"
Hearing this, Baili Ming smiled and said,"
"It's just a little difficult to invite!"
As he spoke, he smiled at Zhou Yu and said,"
"Gongjin, do you know that there are two wise men surnamed Zhang in Jiangdong?”
Hearing Baili Ming's question, Zhou Yu, the know-it-all of River East, pondered for a while before saying,"
"Are you asking about Mr. Zhang Zibu and Mr. Zhang Zigang?”
After thinking for a while, he nodded and said,
"If it were these two gentlemen, they should have such talent!”
Sun Jian listened to the two of them and was a little confused for a moment.
"Who are the Zhang Zibu and Zhang Zigang that Military Advisor and Gongjin mentioned?”
But once he spoke, Sun Ce found an opportunity to interrupt.
"Father, I know these two gentlemen. Both of them are from Xu Prefecture. They are currently living in seclusion in Lujiang Stone Pavilion to avoid the war!”
"It is said that one of these two gentlemen is good at governing the country, and the other is good at military strategy.”
"Originally, he had the opportunity to become an official in the court, but he refused repeatedly. He is very famous in Xu Prefecture!”
"Oh?"
Sun Jian's eyes lit up when he heard that."
"I didn't expect such a wise person to live in Lujiang!”
He quickly looked at Baili Ming and said,
"The wise men that Ruo Zhong mentioned must be these two gentlemen!”
"That's right!"
Baili Ming smiled and said,"
"I've heard of them before, which is why I've noted them down. These two aren't people who love fame and fortune, so it's difficult to invite them!”
"If my lord wants to invite you, you have to pay a visit personally!”
“嗐!”
Sun Jian waved his hand and said,
"What's so difficult about that?"
"Since you have such a talent, I will personally invite you!”
Then, he turned to Sun Ce and said,"
"Ce 'er, after we return to the army, you and father will personally invite him!”
"Alright!"
Sun Ce grinned and said,
"Father, don't worry. Even if you don't go, I can go!”
"I will definitely invite the two gentlemen to help father!”
"No need! I'll go myself!"
Sun Jian said in a deep voice,
"Right now, our army is lacking such talents!”
Looking at the father and son's enthusiastic appearance, Baili Ming nodded. With the father and son's attitude, there was no need to worry about Zhang Er not coming.
When Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong arrived, the pressure on him would be much less!
The military and political affairs might sound domineering, but in reality, it was a tough job!
Seeing that the two of them were talking fervently, he simply added icing on the cake,
"My lord, other than Mr. Zhang, our army still has a great talent!”
"Oh? There's even a genius?"
Sun Jian said,
"Who else?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Baili Ming smiled and said,"
"Gu Yong, Gu Yuantan!"
"Gu Yong?"
Sun Jian was stunned when he heard that.
"Isn't this the head of the Gu family that Gongjin mentioned before?”
"This person can also be used?"
"Of course it can be used!"
Baili Ming smiled and said,"
"Our army is here to restrict the aristocratic families, not to put an end to them!”
"Everyone, don't give up eating because of the trouble of the aristocratic families. When we use military talents, we don't look at family background and only choose talent!”
"Only talent?"
Sun Jian listened and savored it for a while. He was overjoyed and said,
"Ruo Zhong's words are clear words of governing the country again!”
"That's right. To tell you the truth, I've long hated the concept of family status. Our army should only use talents, regardless of the aristocratic families or the poor families!”
In between his words, he had decided on a general strategy for employing people in the future.
But at this point, he remembered something and quickly smiled at Baili Ming.
"Now that Ruo Zhong has already said the two problems and four solutions, I wonder if there's anything else?”
It had to be said that Baili Ming's performance today had already amazed Sun Jian.
However, he still hoped that Baili Ming could say more about governing the country.
Because this was his weakness.
Faced with Sun Jian's anticipation, Baili Ming smiled and said,"
"For the time being, there's still a problem!”
"That's what the lord said just now!”
"Because of the selection system, the great clans have the means to become officials.”
"If the children of the Humble Class want to be officials, they have to curry favor with the great clans!”
"Therefore, I have a suggestion!"
"Our army might as well follow the system of the Imperial College and invest in the establishment of an academy to recruit all the poor children who have the ambition but no money to enter the academy to train!”
"Our army will pay all the tuition fees for this academy.”
"However, there are two requirements. First, the person must be hardworking and second, after graduation, he must serve in our army!”
"With this Academy, our army will have an endless stream of talents in the future!”
He said this because he had another idea, which was to pave the way for the imperial examination in the future.
Because the imperial examination involved too many problems, it was better to train a group of people with a fixed interest through the school.
In the future, when the time was right, he would bring up the new talent selection system.
But even without this, this thought was enough to make Sun Jian ecstatic.
This was a good idea!
In this way, they could nurture talents that only belonged to them!
Moreover, the people they nurtured, regardless of whether they were talented or loyal, could be added with a layer of protection!
One could imagine that once this strategy was implemented, it might not be effective for three to five years, but after three to five years, they would not have to worry about talent!
Sun Jian slapped his thigh and said,"
"Let's do it. This academy must be established!”
Without giving Baili Ming a chance to retort, he pointed out,
"Ruo Zhong, you will be in charge of this matter!"
"Once the Academy is established, you will be the Chancellor!”
Afraid that Baili Ming would dawdle, he added,
"Ruo Zhong, you said that you don't want to govern the country, so it's fine. But now you have to do the Xing Wen Cult, right?”
Faced with Sun Jian's words, Baili Ming could only smile bitterly and say,"
"Forget it, I'll be the chancellor!"
Chancellor was the principal.
To him, it was nothing.
He could also promote some of his ideas.
As he watched the monarch and his subjects set up a large number of strategies to govern the country, Zhou Yu could not help but be secretly shocked.
One could imagine the impact this meeting would have on the entire world!
For a moment, he looked at Baili Ming and felt as if he was looking up at a tall mountain.
In just a few words, he had decided the strategy of the world. This kind of talent, even if he studied for a lifetime, he would still be far behind!
However, the more this was the case, the more a burning fighting spirit ignited in his heart.
No matter what, he was now considered one of Sir's students!
As long as he studied hard for a few years, he would definitely be able to command an army and govern a country like his teacher in the future.
Only by doing so would he not waste his ambition as a man!
Of course, Baili Ming, who was in the midst of making plans with Sun, did not know that he had inadvertently influenced Zhou Yu's ambition.
After everything was settled, he said to Sun Jian,"
"With these strategies, our army should be able to create some restrictions on River East.”
"However, before our army leaves, we have to do one more thing!”
When the other three heard this, they immediately followed him.
Sun Jian asked directly,
"Ruo Zhong, what is it?"
After asking, Baili Ming smiled faintly and said,
"Other than indirectly restricting them, our army also wants to directly attack these aristocratic families!”
"We must let them know who is in charge of Yangzhou!”
"Beat up the aristocratic families!"
Hearing this, the three of them revealed a strange look in their eyes.
If the previous strategy was a big policy, then this sentence now contained a hint of blood.
Obviously, the military counselor was ready to make a move!
