"Absolutely not!!"
Hearing what the turtle said, Dodoro and Sharba were only stunned for a moment, but Philip shouted directly and looked at Xiaya with a panic-stricken expression on his face.
Dodoro and Sharba were a little dazed, and glanced at Philip - Philip was originally an outsider, and after careful calculation, he still had some old grudges with Xi Ya, so although Sharba didn't have much good looks for Philip along the way, Even Dotara had a polite expression on his face, secretly guarding the former head of the Silver Python Warriors.
At this moment, when Xia Ya said something, Philip immediately refuted it face to face, and Sharba was the first to be upset, and said in a loud voice, "I don't think it's bad! This farming system is always messy. When he was in the army in the early years, General Adric I also said that the peasant-military system is not good, I think, just abolish it!"
Although Dodoro didn't say a word, he looked disapproving from the look on his face.
Philip sighed. Sharba's question was very rude, and the look in his eyes was quite unfriendly. His eyes flickered, he hesitated a little, looked at Xiaya, and said solemnly: "My lord, I know that you and several of you have prejudice against me, but I am now a waste person, and I have no intention of harming you anymore. At this moment, only you are willing to protect me, how can I do it? What did you do to harm you? If you fall, where can I find a big tree that I can rely on?"
Xia Ya didn't move, touched Xia Ya and stared at Philip: "Tell me what it means."
Philip sighed and looked at Xiaya's expressionless face, but he suddenly felt a little fear in his heart, and then a wicked thought suddenly appeared in his heart: Why should I break this truth to him? He abolished my hands, if I don't break him, and take the opportunity to encourage him to be so messy, maybe I will cause him a big disaster. When the big disaster strikes, won't I also take revenge
But this kind of thought just flashed in Philip's mind, remembering that he is now a half-crippled person, and that there have been many enemies over the years. Although Xia Ya abolished himself at the beginning, he was the first to ambush him before. Moreover, he was chased and killed by traitors a few days ago. If Xia Ya hadn't shot, he would have already died. People have experienced so many things, and their mentality is also very different from before. The evil thoughts in his heart gradually dissipated, but he recovered a bit of his natural conscience.
He pondered for a moment, his eyes were frank, and he slowly said: "Sir, you are right, this farming system is really not good, it can even be said that it is a sore on our Byzantine Empire, this sore is not cut off, it will be It will slowly suck the blood of the empire, the heavy burden and waste of armament will crush our country bit by bit. If you want to say abolition, if you put it in your heart, I naturally agree with it! But… This is something you can't do!"
"Why?" Xia Ya asked lightly, neither happy nor angry.
"The system of farmers and soldiers, the system of military districts, the two systems are combined into one, in fact, they are one, regardless of each other! More than a hundred years ago, the empire established the 'Tema system', and the two most fundamental of this system are: agriculture Soldiers, and military districts!
The root of the farmer and soldier lies in the field, and the field used by the farmer is divided from the territory of the empire, so that the farmer and the soldier can farm on the spot, and use the field to support the soldiers, and they are self-sufficient! Farmers in leisure time and soldiers in wartime - this is the foundation of the peasant-military system. On the other hand, the military district system was formed on the basis of the peasant-soldier system. As a result, batches of military districts appeared in the empire. The military districts set up governors, and the peasants and soldiers and the farmland in the jurisdiction area were in the hands of the financial, military, and political power... In the end, the fifty-four military district governor groups of the empire were formed, and today... um, to say a taboo word, formed today's pattern of the military and the royal family. "
A flash of clarity flashed in Xia Ya's eyes, and she said solemnly, "Go on."
"Yes." Philip wiped his sweat: "So, the peasant-military system is the military district system, and the military district system is equal to the peasant-military system!" Speaking of which, Philip gathered up his courage and looked at Xia Ya with bright eyes: "I dare to ask your lord, After you abolished the peasant and military system in More County, what should you do with the land that was originally turned into farmland?"
"The land is naturally owned by the county, and it is distributed to local farmers for cultivation on the spot, and distributed according to the state leased land." Xia said quickly.
"Okay! It doesn't matter. The land was cultivated by peasants and soldiers before. Obviously, they left their identities as peasants and soldiers and cultivated as pure peasants. In fact, it didn't change much." Philip said here, next to him Sharba said dissatisfiedly: "There has been no change, it's just a change of name, I see those mud-legged guys, they can't talk about 'soldiers' at all, they are just a group of farmers."
"It's just a different name..." Philip sneered, he saw that Xiaya seemed to take his words very seriously, facing Sharba's accusation, he had the courage to hard-top, and said slowly: "But do you know? I know, sometimes, it is a 'name', which is the key to everyone's success!"
After he retorted Sharba, he looked at Xia Ya, sat on the horse and bent over to salute: "Sir, I just said that the peasant-military system is the military district system, and the military district system is the peasant-military system! The peasant and soldiers are disbanded, and the land is returned. Country... Then, where do you put the military region? Without the land, no farmers and soldiers, then the military region seems to be unnecessary! Since the military region can also be disbanded, then those governors and generals who have inherited the inheritance of the time, don’t they also Can I quit my job and go back to retirement?"
Xia Ya was stunned, bowed her head and frowned, thoughtfully.
Todoro on the side suddenly interjected: "But we just abolished the peasant and military system in More County. More County is not a military region, but an administrative region directly under the central government of the empire. There is no military region governor here. It's just our own business in the county."
Philip shook his head and looked at Dodoro with disdain: "This is a hole."
He simply looked directly at Xia Ya's face and took a deep breath: "Sir, if you don't believe me, then please think about the simplest question!"
"what is the problem?"
"You see the drawbacks of the peasant-military system, and not all others are blind! If you want to come to the Prime Minister of the Empire, His Majesty the Emperor, and the wise man Caviehir next to His Majesty the Emperor, they are not people without knowledge." Philip Leng Leng said: "Don't they want to dig up this sore? If it is so simple: just abolish the peasant and military system in the administrative region of the empire, without jeopardizing the status of the governor of the military region... Is it really not harmful?"
Xia Ya was speechless.
Is it really not dangerous? Does it really matter
I am afraid that even a three-year-old child understands the nature of it.
All beginnings are hard! But once everything has a beginning, there will be a follow-up later! This is a hole. Once the hole for abolishing the peasant-military system is opened, what will it mean for the huge warlords? It means that the royal family has finally made a knife to them!
This is a "nominal" problem!
Since the peasant-military system can be abolished, then the military district system also has the possibility of being abolished!
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for the warlords to allow the royal family to agree to abolish the peasant-military system - even in a small remote county! Because they know very well that this hole must not be opened!
What if Xia Ya was really arrogant and tough
If he really did this and forcibly abolished the peasant-military system in More County, then the emperor of the imperial capital would wake up laughing until he fell asleep, and he must have fallen in love with this turtle who helped him lead the way.
But then, Char will definitely become the public enemy of the warlord's henchmen! In the past, he was quite disliked by the military, but he was just not pleasing to the eye, and occasionally gave him a small shoe to wear. But if he dared to take the risk of the world and make an act of abolishing the peasant-military system, it would be equivalent to digging the roots of the warlords to settle down!
How could the warlords tolerate him? ! From now on, Char will be the mortal enemy of life and death in the eyes of the warlords who have hundreds of thousands of troops in the fifty-four Tema military regions of the empire!
Even, taking 10,000 steps back, Xia Ya really did this, maybe the emperor might not be grateful to him, but would think that he stabbed himself in a hornet's nest! Once a strong counterattack from the warlord party is provoked, it may lead to a rebellion! This is definitely not impossible!
Xia pondered for a while, and Dora's cold voice came from her mind: "This guy is right, you son of a bitch, you should use your brain more!"
"Then what should I do." Xia Ya frowned: "I thought it was a beautiful job, but before I took office, I found out that there are thousands of mouths waiting to be fed, and I don't want to pay all of my net worth."
He didn't ask Philip what he said, but subconsciously asked Dora in his mind. After he said it, Xia Ya realized that he had made a mistake. Philip saw Xia Ya asking the question, thinking that Xia Ya finally paid attention to his opinion and asked Looking for his own strategy, he hesitated for a while, looked left and right, there was no one in the wilderness, and lowered his voice: "Sir, since it can't be abolished... why don't you learn how those military governors do it."
※※※
These words are utterly heart-wrenching words!
When Philip said these words, although his face was calm, cold sweat broke down from his back. He was taking a risk to win Xiaya's attention to himself! Since he has already made up his mind to rely on the protective umbrella of Xia Ya, he is a cripple and naturally worthless in terms of martial arts, so the only thing he can do is the knowledge he has accumulated as the head of the Silver Python Warriors for many years. experience, and a cunning mind.
The Governor of the Military Region? Learn from those warlords? ! This is blatantly provoking the relationship between Char and the royal family!
When he said this sentence, Philip was also short of breath, for fear that the next moment, the uncle in front of him suddenly drew his sword and shouted: "I am a loyal minister of the empire, you dare to provoke my loyalty to the empire! "Then with a sword, he beheaded himself under the sword...
Even if someone else killed Philip, he would not dare to say such words, but he observed secretly along the way, it seems...
This Lord Xia, doesn't seem to have much respect and loyalty to the center of the empire.
Philip is gambling!
If the bet is won, Xia Ya will treat herself differently in the future, at least treat herself as half of her own.
If you lose the bet... Hmph, as a crippled person, what else can't afford to lose!
