Chapter 179 Military Retirement Assessment


Chapter 179 Military Retirement Assessment

When Liu Jian and others heard this, they did not dissuade His Majesty.

Your Majesty, if you want to do something about it, go ahead and do it.

As long as it is not completely unrealistic, they are still willing to believe it. After all, His Majesty has never truly failed.

“As for martial arts training, I already have the best candidate.

Just ignore it for now. "Zhu Houzhao showed a smile and said.

Everyone was a little curious, but they didn't ask any more questions and said yes.

"The social studies in Jin area must be started as soon as possible.

The Ministry of Rites and the Cabinet will determine and prepare the teaching materials, teachers, etc. for social studies as soon as possible.

There is also a sociological environment, and officials in Shanxi are ordered to do their best.

Children are the future of my Ming Dynasty. "

"The social studies have been organized first, and the county schools must be ready next year. Students from the county schools can be recruited openly first. As long as they pass the assessment after five years of social studies, they can enter the county schools. , choose a course to study. "

"Finally, you don't need to worry about the Imperial College affairs. You don't understand those professions anyway.

I will find someone to handle it. "Zhu Houzhao said seriously.

"Yes. "Everyone was helpless.

Then they all went to work.

Zhu Houzhao was not idle. He found the old man and said directly: "Old man, I want to create a basic martial arts and pass it on to all soldiers in the army.

Wait until these soldiers learn it and retire. After that, they will be able to teach all the social studies children in the Ming Dynasty.

Not only that, after the soldiers in the army have learned this basic martial arts, the outstanding ones can teach more advanced martial arts. br>These soldiers who have learned more advanced martial arts can serve as martial arts teachers in the martial arts county school after they retire from the army.

Hahaha, I'm so awesome, I came up with such a good idea. ”

Zheng Gong just thought for a moment and understood what Zhu Houzhao meant.

He had no idea of ​​saying anything more, he just focused on this basic martial arts.

“According to His Majesty’s wishes, this basic martial arts is, most importantly, suitable for children to lay the foundation.

The best way is to combine the Thirteen Postures of Tai Chi and Arhat Quan.

The Thirteen Postures of Tai Chi focus on understanding, while Arhat Quan focuses more on perseverance and body.

The combination of the two should be balanced and suitable for most children to lay the foundation.

For soldiers, it is also a good way to keep fit. "Mr. Zheng pondered, and immediately gave a method.

"It's just as I thought, old man, let's create it quickly. "Zhu Houzhao was overjoyed and said proudly.

Zheng Gong would not expose it, so he smiled slightly and nodded.

Half an hour later, Zhu Houzhao ran away alone, leaving Zheng Gong alone to continue thinking.

The reason is of course that Zhu Houzhao is too busy.

The matter of the Imperial College and the issue of the discharge of military lieutenants should also be finalized.

These all need to be solved by Zhu Houzhao himself.

Two days later, the Cabinet and the Ministry of Rites issued another memorial to formulate detailed settings for social studies and county studies.

Social studies students start enrolling at the age of seven and learn three subjects.

Classics, arithmetic, history.

Those with excellent academic performance can study in county schools.

The county school offers six subjects of knowledge, and classics and history are required.

There are also four subjects: medicine, business, mechanical studies, and craftsmanship. You can choose any one to study.

County school requires six years of study.

Those with excellent grades can enter the Imperial College for further study.

His Majesty said that he would handle the matter of the Imperial College, so Liu Jian and others said nothing.

After reading the memorial, Zhu Houzhao called Liu Jian and others, and after some debate, he was convinced.

Let’s decide this first, and after the teaching materials are ready and the teachers are in place, it will be officially implemented in Shanxi.

Of course, there are still many problems before this.

The remuneration of teachers, and the way out after learning the knowledge of these subjects.

Let’s not talk about the former. Relatively speaking, more people prefer to take the imperial examination to become an official.

Except for business studies, which can now take the imperial examination, the other disciplines cannot take the imperial examination.

In this regard, Zhu Houzhao did not make it too clear. He only said that he would not leave them with nothing to do anyway, and made a strong decision.

After deciding on this matter, the Ministry of Rites became completely busy. Even if it was just a Jin place, it would be enough for them to be busy.

Zhu Houzhao's mind turned to the basic martial arts and retirement issues of army officers.

A few days later, Zhu Houzhao and Zheng Gong joined forces to create a new basic martial arts.

Compared with the Thirteen Postures of Tai Chi and Arhat Boxing, this boxing method is a bit mediocre, but it is definitely more suitable for most people.

Cultivation to the point of perfection is enough for ordinary people to fight against each other, one against ten.

This will lay a good foundation for the subsequent practice of inner strength, mental skills, or physical training.

Zhu Houzhao thought about it a lot and named it Shengwu Boxing.

Subsequently, he called Li Jing, Gu Xichao, Zhou Shanmin, and several princes again. After several discussions, he determined the issue of the retirement of the army officers and soldiers.

From now on, new recruits must be discharged after eight years in the army.

If you don’t want to retire, that’s okay, show the corresponding strength.

As long as you have enough strength and pass the assessment, you don't need to retire.

From now on, there will be an assessment every five years, and the assessment results will determine whether to progress, retreat, or even be discharged directly.

After being discharged from the army, ordinary soldiers will receive a retirement payment of twenty taels of silver.

The policy of exempting one family from corvee is gone, but if one has made merit, one can continue to exempt one family from corvee, and can even receive a reward every year, which is based on the merit.

Temporary merit is divided into three levels.

With third-class merit, the whole family will be exempted from corvee. Second-class merit, plus ten taels of silver every year from now on.

First-class merit, twenty taels of silver per year from now on.

Soldiers who are discharged early due to disability must have performed meritorious service and will be paid accordingly.

The same applies to those who die in battle.

Those who can survive the first eight years and stay in the army will definitely not be ordinary soldiers.

At least he is the flag leader, which is a different treatment.

Although it is necessary to retire in these eight years, it will definitely damage the strength of the army.

After all, eight years is enough for an ordinary soldier to grow into a true veteran and elite.

The retirement of such elite troops is a loss to the army.

Moreover, if Ming Dynasty still wants to conquer the world, it needs more veterans.

But Zhu Houzhao still did this for many reasons.

First, the army must keep flowing. This is what he understood clearly from Emperor Wu's Dragon Cavalry.

An army must have people leaving and people coming in to become stronger, otherwise it will be a pool of stagnant water.

Second, Ming children need basic martial arts teachers.

Retired Ming soldiers are the most suitable.

Third, the existence of martial arts ensures that real elite forces can remain in the army. No matter how veteran or elite the soldiers at the bottom are, if their personal strength is not enough, they can only retire and give way.

This is the cruelty of the army. The capable are promoted and the weak are demoted.

Fourth, we cannot let go of those veterans just because we are fighting in the world.

What Ming Dynasty lacks is never veterans, but good systems and strict implementation.

Fifth, soldiers also need to retire, and many soldiers are willing to retire.

After they retired, Ming Dynasty actually suffered no loss. They are still making contributions to Ming Dynasty. We must look at the overall situation.

There are many reasons, big and small, that lead to eight years of retirement and must exist.

Not just lower-level soldiers, but also officers.

If you fail the assessment every five years, you will not be able to stay in your original position.

After making this decision, Zhu Houzhao took out Shengwu Boxing, and all the new army began to practice this boxing.

Soon, the new army retirement system, officer assessment, and Shengwu boxing followed the will and came to the nine armies of the Ming Dynasty.

This naturally caused an uproar.

But no one dared to object or say anything, they just felt more pressure.

The new army became more lively, and the whole army began to learn Shengwu Boxing.

Zhu Houzhao couldn't bear it and came to Emperor Wu's Dragon Cavalry in person to announce the retirement and assessment system.

Yes, after thinking over and over again, Zhu Houzhao felt that Emperor Wu's Dragon Cavalry was no exception.

The situation of Emperor Wu's Dragon Cavalry is different. Each of them is strong enough to become an officer of the new army.

So you can retire voluntarily after serving in the army for eight years.

Also, after five years of joining the army, those who fail to meet the standards of Emperor Wu's Dragon Riders will have to quit the Emperor's Dragon Riders and can transfer to the new army.

Those who pass the Emperor Wu's Dragon Rider standard will have their personal strength assessed every two years.

The capable are superior and the weak are inferior.

Those who do not work hard and whose strength declines and cannot meet the standards of Emperor Wu's Dragon Riders will still have to be discharged from the army or transferred to the new army.

When Zhu Houzhao said this in person, Emperor Wu Longqi naturally had no objections or doubts.

There is just a sense of pressure and urgency.

Because many members of Emperor Wu's Dragon Cavalry have been in the army for five years.

There are also biennial assessments.

Except for a very few, no one wants to leave the Martial Emperor Dragon Riders, especially in such an elimination way.

“Brothers, I made this decision for a very simple reason.

The Dragon Knights of Emperor Wu need to become stronger and stronger.

Counting from today, two years later, veterans who participated in the war of establishing slaves and defeating the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty will take the first assessment, and the five-year enlistment assessment will be unnecessary.

For recruits who did not participate in these two wars, the five-year assessment will be held as usual. "Zhu Houzhao said loudly.

The veteran breathed a sigh of relief, and the recruit became more nervous.

"Yes. ”

The sound of Ying Hehe shook the heaven and earth.

After Zhu Houzhao left, the training and cultivation of Emperor Wu's Dragon Cavalry became even harder.

The changes that have taken place in the army have naturally attracted the attention of many people.

Especially Shengwu Boxing, people from all walks of life in the Ming Dynasty have obtained it, including those outside the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Houzhao didn't care about this, he had no hidden thoughts.

With so many people practicing, there is no way to hide it.

On the contrary, he hopes that more people will practice Shengwu Boxing.

In this case, Ming's power will be increased. For example, when recruiting new soldiers, the new soldiers will definitely be stronger.

After quickly deciding on the social studies and county schools in Shanxi, as well as the military discharge and assessment, Zhu Houzhao worked non-stop to prepare for the Imperial College.

He does not like the current students of the Imperial College very much.

After ordering Jin Yiwei to conduct a thorough investigation, he changed several Imperial College officials.

Then he formally issued an order to the entire Ming Dynasty.

Recruiting doctors, master craftsmen, and masters of mechanical arts to teach students in the Imperial College.

The Imperial College will open three colleges to train a large number of people to learn these three knowledges.
