Chapter 82 Thousand Household System

The surging morning sun pushed aside the dazzling clouds, and the red light like fire poured down to the whole earth, burning people's skin and flesh into purple-red, and it seemed that a burnt smell could be smelled.

Bachelor Bass Porter sat in his own carriage, wiping the sweat from his forehead from time to time. In front of him was a smooth small desk with burnt yellow parchment and ink on it.

The surging memories flowed through his eyes like a rushing river. It was the scene when Kao narrated the system reform to him.

The hot wind from the north swirled along the forest and finally blew into the carriage, sighing beside the bachelor. After he sat for a long time, even though the space in the carriage was wide, he couldn't help trembling slightly.

Suddenly, he realized that he didn't have to sort out those rules and regulations. Perhaps he could record Kao's original words directly in order.

Thinking of this, the bachelor immediately picked up the feather pen on the desk, looked at the parchment in front of him with his dazzled eyes, and started to work.

"Wherever I go, I will abolish the original identities of local leaders such as bandits, governors, governors, nobles, etc., abolish slavery, and make everyone a free citizen. My people, all men, women, and children in the areas I control, must be registered according to their names, ages, identities, places of origin, appearances, and wealth.

"Wise old woman!" The scholar muttered, "This is really a difficult task. The khal also specifically mentioned that the Dothraki people have no surnames, and reforms must be made, so this must be noted. "

These ideas made the scholar feel quite worried. They would definitely have a huge impact on the existing system and break up the rights of the original nobles. However, he soon realized that what Monggo said was right. The new system after reconstructing and reshuffling would undoubtedly be able to effectively control human resources.

If it can be done, it will surely make the country prosperous. Amidst thousands of thoughts, the scholar did not stop writing with his feather pen. He continued to write:

"All tribes will be reorganized according to ten households, hundred households, and thousand households, breaking the old tribal organization. The composition of the thousand households must be a mixture of people from different tribes, and the original tribal personnel must not account for more than half of the thousand households. "

"The commander of the ten households is the head of the ten households, and the hundred households and thousand households are under the command of the governor. "

"The governor must be a meritorious person, and all must be recognized and directly appointed by the khal. The governor is ordered to manage the local area and must absolutely obey the orders of the khal. If there is dereliction of duty or rebellion, the khal has the right to replace or punish at any time. ”

“The governor has the obligation to pay taxes to the khal and lead troops to fight. The governor of a thousand households has the power to participate in military and national affairs. Governors at all levels must allocate pastures, collect taxes, assign corvée labor, and command the army in their jurisdiction in accordance with national laws and orders.

“Not all governors are hereditary. Only governors who have made special and significant contributions and have been officially appointed by the khal can become hereditary governors. They enjoy the right to be exempted from taxes, have exclusive spoils of war, graze freely, and have their households reduced and exempted from guilt.”

“The khal will allocate pastures for each thousand households. After that, the Dothraki people included in the thousand households must be fixed in the designated pastures according to their registered hometowns and cannot move at will. Regardless of grazing, stationing or going out, all thousand households must settle down in camps, and the governor will be in the center to manage and dispatch.”

“All men aged 15 to 50 must serve in the military and, at any time, according to the khal’s orders, they must provide their own horses, weapons, and food. The thousand households and the hundred households lead the expedition. All males, when mounted, are ready for battle, and when dismounted, gather to tend to the herd. "

"Above the thousand households, there is the ten thousand households. The ten thousand households are military commanders who command the armies of the thousand households under their jurisdiction and are not allowed to interfere with local administration."

"I will form a new blood guard as the guard of the khal, which is divided into two parts: the first is the central army thousand households, which are recruited from the whole army for their bravery and good fighting skills, and the best in riding and shooting, etc. The second is the guard thousand households, which are recruited from the sons of the leaders at all levels and those who died in the battle to serve. "

"If a blood guard escapes from the call or replaces someone else, he will be guilty and banished to a distant place and will not be able to return until his death."

"In addition to the call for In addition to the summoned personnel, my blood guards are allowed to voluntarily go to the khal's tent to serve as guards. Anyone who is strong and has a skill can be selected. If someone is willing to serve, no one can stop him. "

"Blood guards only guard me and protect the safety of me and my family. They are responsible for guarding and preparing for my trips and hunting. In wartime, they follow me to conquer all directions."

"If I don't go to war, blood guards are not allowed to go to war. If there is a violation, the soldiers who raise the army will be convicted and the leaders of the army will be beheaded."

"My blood guards are above the outer thousand households, and their families are above the outer hundred households. If there is a conflict between the outer thousand households, the hundred households and the blood guards, they are of equal status. During the fight, the thousand households and hundred households outside will be convicted immediately. If it is the fault of the blood guards, only the khal can punish them personally. "

"The distribution of spoils will be based on a strict system of merit and hierarchy. The most meritorious and the highest-ranking people will get the largest share. The dead will receive double rewards according to their share, one of which will be provided by the khal. If anyone can avenge the dead and take back their bodies, they can get the wives and concubines of the dead and all their property. "

At this point, there is no blank on a large parchment scroll. The scholar gently put down the feather pen, stood up tiredly, moved his numb body, and waited for the ink on the parchment to dry.

At this moment, a loud horn sounded suddenly, echoing in the wilderness. A team of cavalry galloped quickly on both sides of the road, shouting loudly:

"Prepare to cross the river, prepare to cross the river!"

The scholar's fatigue turned into excitement in an instant. He had not yet visited the stone bridge that did not exist on the map.

Moreover, this bridge played a key role in the war with Drogo. He wanted to draw it and record it as an illustration in his book.

He immediately shook his limbs, rode his horse and ran forward quickly. Soon after, he saw a broken stone bridge across the Varanna River.

The bridge deck was covered with dry moss, and the rushing river water hit the bridge piers, throwing out small whirlpools one by one.

Teams of cavalry rushed across the bridge quickly. The warriors crossing the river grabbed scimitars, spears, bows and arrows, ready to deal with sudden attacks that could happen at any time. The scholar deeply engraved this scene in his mind.

This is not the entire content of the reform, just a general description. With these, everyone should know what is going on. The rest will be hidden in the later chapters and written slowly.
