Chapter 369 Military System Reform
For some reason, Ying Zheng was bewildered.
Ying Zheng realized that this Qin Dynasty had nothing to do with him.
It seems that it was all thanks to Mr. Tang.
If it weren't for Mr. Tang's arrival, perhaps I would never have been able to create such a great Qin Dynasty even if I spent my whole life on it.
The Qin Dynasty of today is far from what I had anticipated.
If it weren't for Mr. Tang's arrival, the Great Qin Dynasty would probably have ended up as Mr. Tang predicted.
The Qin Dynasty perished after only two generations!
Even under these circumstances, Ying Zheng still has his own troubles, which are the troubles of happiness.
He looked to Mr. Tang Yu, who had no choice but to seek his help.
"Since Xiao He's work is progressing very smoothly, he even has a small surplus in his accounts."
"But now I have another problem to solve."
"Oh? Is there really a problem in the world that you can't solve?"
"Your Majesty, please tell me in detail!"
Tang Yu looked at Ying Zheng with curiosity. He had no idea that Ying Zheng would be stumped by a question. What was the question?
Logically speaking, given Ying Zheng's decisive personality, if he couldn't solve the problem, he would have no choice but to eliminate the person responsible for it.
The only thing that made Ying Zheng hesitate was his mother, Zhao Ji, who was a difficult person for him to deal with.
“Mr. Tang, ever since your statue was erected, many men in our Qin have wanted to join the army and serve our Qin state.”
"However, the Qin state is currently reducing its military strength because it has collected all the weapons in the world."
"But nowadays, with so many people wanting to join the army, there's simply no way to allocate them."
"And even if they are assigned, there aren't enough places and opportunities for them to fight. What should we do?"
Ying Zheng was immediately caught in a blissful dilemma, while Tang Yu, standing to the side, twitched his lips and said...
"Is this a big deal? Is this a big deal?"
"Listen to this, is this even human language?"
The entire Qin state was in dire straits, and from Ying Zheng onwards, its previous kings had almost never fought a single profitable battle.
Each one of them is moving forward with their necks choked, struggling to survive in the cracks.
After all, only the Qin state could defeat six other states by fighting against one.
In this situation, Ying Zheng actually uttered such Versailles-like words, Tang Yu sighed.
"Your Majesty, since that's the case, why don't we change the Qin state's system after some time has passed?"
Is the system going to be reformed again and again?
Ying Zheng saw a hint of surprise in Tang Yu's eyes.
The other party had just come into everyone's view when they proposed to change the laws of the Qin state and modify its tax system, among other things.
Now they want to change the Qin state's system again. Shouldn't this system still be the system within the army?
Each one of them is breaking ground on the very foundation of the Qin Dynasty.
Each and every one of them is defying the Heavenly Gang!
Every single one of them is violating ancestral teachings!
Ying Zheng didn't care about any of that; all he cared about was the strength of the Qin Dynasty.
If it can make the Qin Dynasty strong, then what difference does it make if we overthrow the Heavenly Gang?
Simply following the rules and blindly adhering to them is of no use.
It will not make Qin strong at all; on the contrary, it will only hold Qin back.
After figuring this out, Ying Zheng suddenly understood.
He looked at Tang Yu, somewhat expectant of what Tang Yu was going to say.
After thinking for a moment, Tang Yu spoke directly to His Majesty.
"Your Majesty, if that's the case, then the enthusiasm of the people of Great Qin should not be buried."
"Once the basic productivity of our Great Qin increases and society becomes stable, it is equally possible to allow a minority to stand up and protect the majority."
"A minority protecting the majority?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. It's like this..."
Tang Yu told Ying Zheng about the military service policy in his previous life, as well as some related standard ratios.
Ying Zheng remained confused until the very end.
"My God! Mr. Tang—"
"The person who formulated this policy in your previous life was an absolute genius!"
"That's brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! This is an excellent idea!"
Ying Zheng never expected that there would be such a good solution in the world.
This not only satisfied the requests of those who wanted to dedicate themselves to serving their country, but also did not discourage them.
It can also help make the Qin state more stable and united!
This method is simply killing two birds with one stone!
Only a genius could come up with this solution!
"But Mr. Tang, how should this matter be resolved?"
Tang Yu sighed deeply upon hearing this.
"Ugh."
Time was still too tight. Tang Yu had actually been in this world for quite some time, almost a year in total.
However, there was no way around it; what Tang Yu and the others had done was indeed quite far-fetched.
If it weren't for Tang Yu, the time traveler, protecting them...
He possesses absolute military strength, visionary foresight that transcends his time, and a powerful workforce to back him up.
Then the Qin state would probably have collapsed even faster than in the original story, but fortunately none of these things have happened.
"No rush. Let's wait until we've harvested our potatoes and sweet potatoes twice before doing this."
"At that time, we will have the support of the people of Qin and enough food."
"If anyone dares to object, then we'll have no choice but to deal with them unilaterally."
Upon hearing Tang Yu's words, Ying Zheng nodded.
Yes, solving a problem is so simple, why is it necessary to solve the problem at all?
After visiting Xiao He's place, Tang Yu and Ying Zheng arrived at the government office that had been established for Qin's poverty alleviation program.
The two were curious, since Xiao He was doing so well on the front lines.
So what about the other people in this whole poverty alleviation program?
What are they all doing?
To everyone's surprise, the two were stunned as soon as they arrived.
They saw an official still fast asleep in the house.
The official was dressed in a black robe, and his hair was very messy, his head looking like a chicken coop.
He looked utterly dejected.
When Ying Zheng saw this, his face immediately darkened.
After all, these two were officials of his Qin Dynasty, representing the image of his Qin Dynasty.
If all other officials in the Qin Dynasty were in this situation, then the Qin Dynasty would essentially be finished.
"Get up now!"
He looked at the sleeping official and shouted at him.
The official was terrified upon hearing this and shuddered.
A look of fear instantly appeared on the face that had just been half asleep.
After he realized what was happening, the muscular lines on his face suddenly appeared.
He roared in the direction of Ying Zheng.
"Damn it! Who dares to yell at me?"
"Let me tell you, I'm going to take you today..."
He couldn't finish his sentence.
Because what he saw standing in front of him were Tang Yu and Ying Zheng, both with serious expressions.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.
Finished!
He never imagined that he would be caught red-handed by Ying Zheng and Tang Yu while he was slacking off at work today!
What's even more infuriating is that he also insulted Ying Zheng!
