Sweep the World

In fact, it is not a dispute between civil and military affairs. It is a kind of "throttle" that Han has stopped from a large-scale war. For example, the military that wants to make contributions has lost its stage. People have repeatedly emphasized internal affairs, provoking rebellion among those who are already lost.

It’s said that the army must be able to stand loneliness for a while, but as long as the moment of becoming a soldier, who doesn’t have a heart to serve the country, train and train day after day, can’t wait. The opportunity to play one's role is of course good for the country and the nation, but it is really unavoidable for the soldiers to lose.

For a long period of time, the Han army was really engaged in large-scale wars. The thirteen standing legions were either on the battlefield or on the way to the battlefield. At that time, the samurai were happiest. They had enough stage to express themselves, and they could seize the opportunity to seal their wives.

After the Battle of Yan, the scale of the Han's foreign warfare declined repeatedly. There were only two standing armies against the remnants of Murong Xianbei and Tuoba Xianbei. In the northwest, there was only one standing army that guarded the original Zhang’s Liang State, and dealt with the remnants of Qiang and Di people in the west. It is also just a standing army. In the Indo-China Peninsula, there is simply one standing division. If there is no invasion of the Gupta dynasty behind, almost nine standing troops are in the nest stage.

"If the army does not fight for a long time, it will lose its blood." Xu Zheng does not feel that he is moaning without illness, and he has nothing to hide from Xie An, who is also a member of the military: "It's only less than a year, although there is no military equipment and training. Several standing armies that have been abandoned and have not moved for a long time have really experienced a decline in combat power."

It is not difficult to understand that no matter how elite troops are, they cannot maintain their combat effectiveness all the time. After the troops are in peace for a period of time, soldiers will inevitably relax their mentality and extend to all aspects.

Furthermore, Han has to deal with large-scale natural disasters, it is difficult to fight in a short period of time, and the voice of building internal affairs is too loud, causing even the military to think that it is difficult for itself to express itself. As an army, it needs to be vigilant and vigilant. Once the desire to fight is worn away, just relying on training will basically not have much effect. What is needed is to pull the battlefield goodbye to see the blood.

Xie An still supports the call for building internal affairs. It's very simple to have this kind of thinking. He is not a simple military commander, and he has his own understanding of how to govern the country.

The force of a country is built on the basis of sufficient logistics, that is, the national strength of the country is the guarantee of military force. A country without sufficient national strength, even if it can prosper for a while, will not be destroyed in madness, or the country will not live because of the people. Fall into turmoil.

Most of the few people who followed Liu Yan and rose to the end of the Wei Dynasty did not have a good background, and quite a few people did not receive a good education. They became ministers of a country and would do some knowledge "tuition", but a lot of knowledge is really not dependent on " "Tutorial" can figure it out.

Like Xu Zheng, he has always experienced that he does not need to worry about the army’s logistics area. It is enough to think about how to lead the army to defeat the enemy and win victory. Even if he knows the importance of food, he will not think deeply about the army’s food Where does it come from.

It's like Xie An. He has been taught a lot of knowledge since he was a child. He clearly and understands that the army is not an independent individual. The army is part of the entire country. No output from the people means that the army has no logistics.

Why does Liu Yan need to accept the aristocratic family while he doesn't like the aristocratic family? It is because illiteracy cannot govern a country. Knowledge and vision determine the height of a person. People who lack knowledge will not know how to govern the country, and people who do not have enough vision can hardly lead the country on the right path.

Of course Xu Zheng is not illiterate, but he came from a small family, and his knowledge is really not comparable to that of aristocrats. He is still a lieutenant, and where he sits on his **** is destined to guarantee the interests of the military.

Although Xu Zheng didn't say it clearly from the beginning, Xie An really understood what Xu Zheng wanted to express, which is to speak together as a member of the military, such as the increase in troops on the A-3 battlefield.

Xie An has more concerns:

For a long time, Liu Yan has been generous enough to the military. If the military is still ignorant, he thinks that as long as he unites, he can change the king's will, no matter how good his temper, the king will inevitably take measures.

Xie An explained his understanding to Xu Zheng.

"Is that so?" Xu Zheng obviously didn't think so much before. As soon as Xie An reminded him, his forehead broke out with cold sweat: "Anshi reminded it so."

Xie Anneng could only say so much, even if he knew that Xu Zheng, who was a captain, only needed to express his demands to the emperor, there was no need for a "popularity", and he would not talk more to Xu Zheng.

The two rode around for a while, and it was already early evening when they returned to the camp.

The camp was built at the foot of a mountain, with a stream on the side and flat grassland on the other sides while backing against the foot of the mountain. It was very in line with the standards for the establishment of a camp by the Zhu Xia army.

Liu Yan made this inspection to personally check the situation of the counties in Guanzhong.

Today Guanzhong has a larger population in Chang'an. The population of Chang'an has migrated from various places in the past two years. The rest of the counties are truly ten-house and nine-empty because of the continuous wars in the past.

After the Han state designated Chang'an as its capital, the government and military in the early days had been calling for the people who had taken refuge to go out of the mountains and forests. It cannot be said that it had no effect, but the effect was very limited.

When there is no war, people will not stay where they are. They will drag their families and hide in the forest when they realize that the war is about to break out. Then, as soon as they hid, many people broke the news. They may have died while migrating, or they did not know the changes in the outside world at all, which led to the end of the war for decades, and the new country entered the prosperous age that they thought. Local governments will still report to increase the population who have just stepped out of the mountains.

There is an obvious example. Liu Bang won the final victory in the struggle between Chu and Han. He established the Great Han and his descendants created the rule of Wenjing. However, in order to retaliate against the Huns during Liu Che’s reign, it was necessary to increase the population, government and government. The folk rangers keep going deep into the mountains and forests, always being able to catch a considerable number of wild men out.

From Liu Bang’s founding of the country to Liu Che’s war against the Huns, it took six to seventy years to get so many people out of the mountains and forests. It can be imagined how many people hid during the outbreak of the war.

The official household registration is to register the people according to their heads, usually at the age of eight, not when they are born. That's because babies are extremely prone to premature death.

The people who have not been registered by the government are the hermits, or savages. The Central Plains dynasty did not speak humanity to the hermits and savages, that is, the law did not protect the hermits and savages. Killing the hermits and savages did not To be considered illegal, it is that neither the hermit nor the savages have paid a small amount of taxes for the country.

Any dynasty that has just founded a country will try its best to force or attract the people in hiding. It is a source of taxation for the country and a means of increasing the source of troops.

The Han country established by Liu Yan is doing what all dynasties and dynasties have done, doing everything possible to find out the people in hiding, so that they can become a part of the country in the true sense.

The population is increasing every day throughout the country. In some places, the increase is much higher, and in some places, the population is very small. The counties in Guanzhong belong to the small part.

"You still have to migrate from all over the country." Ji Chang said bluntly: "Since the big Han is the capital of Guanzhong, the population of Guanzhong is related to the stability of the big Han."

To put it bluntly, it is still a way to strengthen the weak branch. Not only the capital city of Chang'an must have a sufficient population, and the more people in Zhili, the better. Whenever a source of troops is needed, the more the better. Comprehensive suppression of the region.

There were almost no people in all counties in Guanzhong. There was Qiang chaos in the northwestern region of the Eastern Han Dynasty until the later period. The number of Han people decreased and then they simply lost control of the northwest at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, whether it was Cao Wei or waiting for the establishment of the Sima family. In Jin, the control of the northwest has not actually returned to the center. The Han people inhabiting this land have become a very small number, but the number of Qiang and Di people has increased again and again.

It’s too long to talk about it, just say that Ran Min founded Ran's Qin State in Guanzhong seven years ago. The first thing they did after the founding of the nation was the expansion of the Latin army, and then they fought hard with Shi Jie and Zhao Guo. Later on, the Qiang and Di people were repeatedly killed and killed. Until Ran Min went out and returned to Liu Yan, the Han people in Guanzhong were dead and those who could not be found. Less than 200,000 left.

After the Han state regained control of Guanzhong, the population was registered for the first time. The population was only a pitiful 120,000. It is unknown how many Qiang and Di people pretended to be. The number increased repeatedly in the following years until the sixth year of Yuanshuo. The registered population in Guanzhong is more than 300,000.

This year is the eighth year of Yuanshuo. Excluding those who have just migrated, the total population of the so-called 800-mile Qinchuan is only close to 400,000, which shows how sparsely populated the land is.

During the period when the Great Qin Dynasty unified the Six Kingdoms, Guanzhong had a population of about 4 million for a long time. According to some official records at that time, there were still a lot of places that were not used by the 4 million people.

"For the entire Guanzhong, the recruitable source of troops should be no less than 300,000." Ji Chang considers from the long-term perspective, and talks about the importance of the center's recruiting source of troops nearby: "Only in this way can it be called as stable as Mount Tai."

The backbone of a country must be able to suppress various places in order to deter all places from doing things to the greatest extent. Any country and any nation will have relevant considerations. It is not much to believe in administrative regions other than the central government. Relations are purely a safe state policy.

"Take ten households to raise one soldier..." Cai You quickly calculated: "That's three million households."

A household is a family, and the number of members in each family is not fixed. Some may be a couple only, and some may be father, mother, husband, wife plus a variable number of children, the number of members in an ordinary family Actually limited. That was the "separation of family" system in the Western Han Dynasty. Except for the eldest son of the family, the rest of the males became independent after they became adults and married. But it is only ordinary families that are really supervised, otherwise there would be no family.

"Zheng Guoqu and Chengguoqu and other irrigation systems have been restored, and new crops will be promoted. There is no problem with enriching 10 million people in Guanzhong." Ji Chang didn't know where the data came from, and said seriously: " There must be a population of this number."

Liu Yan recalled that in his memory, the population of Guanzhong in the pre-Han Dynasty was stable at about 3 million, but in fact it was not much different from that in the pre-Qin period. The population of Guanzhong in the Yang and Sui Dynasty was stable at around 3.7 million, and that in the Li and Tang dynasties. When the population was at its highest, it was 4.2 million. He remembered that the population of Guanzhong (Shaanxi) only surpassed that of the Li and Tang Dynasties until the Zhu Ming period after the Li Tang period, soaring to over 6 million, otherwise it was around two million in the rest of the period, and in some periods it was even worse. few.

As the prime minister of the country, Ji Chang strongly urged that the population of Guanzhong should be his job, and he obviously dared to say those words after research.

As the Central Minister, what they need is to be consistent with the Prime Minister, even if it will damage the areas outside Guanzhong.

In the seventh year of Yuanshuo, the central government has issued an official document to formulate relevant regulations on migration to Guanzhong. Similar to the migration of wealthy households in the Xian Han, it is more aimed at the rich and aristocratic families. There are countless families across the country who need to migrate to Guanzhong. In fact, It is also a means of maintaining stability for the country.

In the eighth year of Yuanshuo~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the migration for the wealthy and aristocratic families was already in progress. Those people who migrated did not receive compensation, but they would allocate as much land as they originally had. The need to reclaim the land will inevitably be a great loss of vitality.

The migration under the leadership of Ji Chang is aimed at attacking the wealthy and aristocratic families in one step, and while accumulating money for future internal affairs construction, it also leaves those people without the financial resources and materials to do things. The methods are a bit fierce or even disgraceful, but they are related to the country. It must be done at a time.

In fact, those who have suffered are counted among the officials of the central government. At best, they can leave some properties in their hometowns, but there are really not many left behind, which is equivalent to the need for a new life in Guanzhong like everyone else.

Liu Yan supports Ji Chang. It is impossible for Han to develop the whole country at the same time. It can only delineate a region for phased construction. Then there is no more important place than the capital area, as long as it is not the destructive looting of other regions. The construction method only affects some special group benefits, and it is also good for ordinary people in some aspects. For example, after the relocation of the rich and the aristocratic families, the land in the area is redistributed.

Ji Chang said to everyone: "Although we have a mature military management system, we are trying to prevent the wealthy and aristocratic families from being moved and new groups to replace them."
