The Wei Empire's household registration was not just a farmer.

With the previous policies to support the development of industry and commerce, the number of urban residents in towns has also increased, and many people have begun to choose to operate industry and commerce, not just agriculture.

Because most people engage in commerce and handicrafts, but not in agriculture, the population mobility is relatively high and it is inconvenient to statistics and conscription, so the military service system is non-compulsory for these people.

However, in order to prevent future changes, some people use obtaining urban household registration and engaging in commerce and handicrafts as a means of evading military service. Mr. Guo has made suggestions on the population engaged in these aspects.

The proportion of taxes imposed on these industries should be increased.

After the formal military service system is launched, tax preferential policies for commerce and handicrafts must be abolished and upgraded to a point that exceeds the agricultural tax.

In addition, all kinds of government servants are given priority to recruiting people who do not have farmers' household registration to participate.

If the household registration of the relevant industry does not allow children to serve in the military, an additional service exemption tax is also required to pay a son of appropriate age for three consecutive years.

And until the age of forty, one extra military exemption tax will be paid every year.

This tax is based on the amount of family property and annual income.

This type of household registration is counted by the Ministry of Civil Affairs every year, and then submitted to the emperor. After the emperor confirms it, it is issued to the Ministry of Finance, and the Imperial Ministry of Finance personally implements the tax increase collection, and local governments are not allowed to intervene.

Of course, if this type of household registration actively registers for the children to serve in the military, they can be exempted from exemption from service, conscription tax, and can also receive rewards for reducing commercial taxes.

In short, the traditional means of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce and the military service system are mutually exclusive and restored together, and support policies for private commerce and handicrafts should be changed.

Farmers who were previously widely supported by agriculture and tossing small businesses were also assigned to commercial households, and the tax ratio would change.

For the empire, the most important thing is always agriculture, then commerce and handicrafts.

Agriculture is not only related to the basic foundation of the empire, but also to the source of soldiers and the empire's control over the grassroots. It is a red line.

Because no one can skip eating.

Focusing on agriculture and suppressing commerce is not a bad policy. The basic spirit and principles will continue to apply until human productivity has undergone a revolutionary leap.

And at least in this current era, this is a necessary policy to maintain social stability and cannot be shaken.

Business can support it, but there is no concession on tax issues. They must control their scale and size, and must never allow them to develop to the point where they erode the agricultural field.

Otherwise, once commerce and agriculture compete for population and land, the basic structure of the empire will be shaken, the foundation of the Wei Empire will be completely destroyed, and taxation and military will be powerless.

At that time, the huge territory and military defense system of the Wei Empire will be fragmented.

The ruling area that was finally expanded and reached was about to be retracted to the level of the Thirteen State of the Han area.

This is something that Mr. Guo absolutely does not allow.

Every inch of land he seized has economic or strategic value, and cannot be abandoned at will.

Therefore, he firmly implemented the policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce.

At present, at this time when business development is quite prosperous in this place, it is time to draw the blood of business to feed back agriculture.

The son of an official undoubtedly needs to join the army, whether civil or military officer, nobility or general bureaucrats.

Each household must have at least one male member to serve in the military service, which is a rigid rule.

It's a different matter if you don't have a son. If you have a son, you have to deliberately conceal it. After being found out, there will be a confinement order for three generations to not be allowed to take the imperial examination, which is used as a punishment.

In order to maintain and consolidate such a new military system, Mr. Guo took great pains to formulate various policies.

In order to maintain the strong military force of the Wei army, it can be considered that the military service system belonging to the Wei Empire was formulated based on the military service system of the Western Han Dynasty.

In addition to the military service system, Guo Peng also formulated a police system, and then prepared to further transform the force responsible for urban public security into a police force, so that the urban public security management force and the army would be completely separated and there would be no related connections.

These will not be officially implemented until later, but they do not prevent Mr. Guo from starting to formulate practical systems now.

Mr. Guo, who suppressed the resistance of the scholars and finally stabilized his position and evolved into a true emperor, finally had the mind and energy to do something else.

For example, promoting disarmament and regularization of the military.

If this task is to be completed, the war between Yizhou and Liangzhou must be completely ended.

The military camps in Yizhou and Liangzhou did not complete the disarmament plan because there was still a war to fight.

Yizhou wanted to attack the four counties in the south and Liangzhou wanted to attack the countries in the Western Regions, which were all important tasks, so Guo Peng also sent 20,000 Central Guards to Yizhou and Liangzhou respectively to strengthen the military strength of these two units.

According to the difficulty, at the end of the seventh year of Yande, Guo Peng ordered Le Jin, the governor of Chengdu Daying in Yizhou, and ordered Le Jin as the main general to lead the 80,000 Wei troops in Yizhou to launch an attack on the four counties in Nanzhong, ending the non-staff history of the four counties in Nanzhong.

Guo, who is good at ending history, just ended the history of his disciples and former officials and the second monarchy. Of course, we must go further and end the non-staff history of the four counties in Nanzhong.

The Yong family joined forces with some other local tyrants and barbarians in the Southern Central to form a joint autonomous body to fight against the power of Wei Central. From about three or four years of Yande to now, Guo has not been able to free up his hands to deal with them.

Of course, the main reason is that the road has not been repaired, the transportation in various parts of Shu is not connected enough, and the 80,000 troops need too much material to fight. The rear must be very difficult when fighting, so the order has not been given.

Le Jin led the army to stay in Shu for several years, and only built roads. He trained troops to death without anything else to do, so that the army could get used to the climate and mountain fighting in Shu.

At the same time, I also sat with Man Chong to watch the changes in Luoyang.

Over the years, one big news after another has been transmitted from Luoyang to Shuzhong, and one by one made the two of them feel frightened and moved. They feel that if they were in such a whirlpool center, they would definitely not get any benefits, and they might even be unlucky.

Especially this major change from the sixth year of Yande to the seventh year of Yande scared Man Chong and Le Jin very much.

"I'm fine. I'm the leader of the army and don't care about government affairs. Look at the fact that there are only a few people who lead the army in the past few years. Just take care of your hands, feet and mouths, but you can't be the official. Who knows when something bad suddenly happens?"

Le Jin felt very grateful that he did not become a civil servant but a military general. The more he went back, the more he felt that he was lucky and the more he felt that it was right not to participate in government affairs.

Man Chong's insights have become more.

"Now think about it, it may be a good thing for Your Majesty to not let me go back to the Central Committee for so many years. Although staying in Yizhou is not as good as Luoyang, it has avoided those things that are unexplained. The key is that no one of us has ever thought that Your Majesty could do these things..."

Man Chong was frightened by the large-scale means of decisively suppressing scholars and implicating 30,000 to 40,000 people in one go.

He felt that he would not have such courage and courage no matter what, and he would not have thought that the scholars would be today.

At that time, he didn't know about this and expressed his support for Guo Peng's decision was something that he should have done as a long-time confidant.

Although he had doubts, his keen sense of political smell still helped him.

He didn't dare to imagine what would happen if he opposed the abolition of the imperial examination.

But he wouldn't do this after all. As an old official from Guo Peng promoted him, he couldn't do that.
