Chapter 285: I can't afford to mess with you (2)(2/2)

Then, Xu Huizu looked at Xin Yande, "Xin Tongzheng, do you know that the vassal kings have been deposed?"

Xin Yande nodded without saying a word.

"This number has not yet been counted as the soldiers and horses that the vassal kings have expanded privately over the years!" Xu Huizu lit the thick military list and continued, "You may not understand military affairs. The northern border has been disarmament and integration and re-dividing the garrison. Now it seems like it is a cost of money, but often look at it from afar. If these hundreds of thousands of people are missing, will the people be less burdened?"

Xin Yande thought about it seriously and nodded.

This account is not difficult to calculate. Even if you spend 10 million silver dollars now, it is better than spending millions of dollars in these bottomless pits every year. Moreover, the older and weak are getting worse, and the more you eat, the more you eat.

"Tell me again, how to resettle these people?" Xu Huizu said again, "The land on the border will be sent to war soldiers in the future. Will there be so many land to resettle these people who have been lifted out? There are also the troops that the vassal kings have expanded privately, where will they go?"

As he said that, Xu Huizu's eyelids twitched violently, "Xin Tongzheng, do you know that these people are soldiers! Even if they are old meat and even mobs, they will be soldiers when they pick up the knife. Even if they are given land, they will not be farmers at ease!"

"What should you do? What should you do if you ask the emperor to do? If you can't place them well, there will be even bigger troubles. They are soldiers, and they can kill people by picking up a knife. What should you do if you ask the emperor to let us military men?"

"Everyone knows that people will die when fighting, and the emperor doesn't want to fight, and I, Xu Huizu, don't want to be a person who launches war and causes the loss of life."

"But for more people to live better, there is no way to fight, right?"

"As you said, the people need a way to survive. Do these people who have been soldiers for half their lives do not need a way to survive? Who can guarantee that they will not cause trouble and they will be good people obediently?"
