Chapter 203: Our Goal (2)
"Ladies and gentlemen, among you, there are people from Jingzhou, people from Youzhou, Yongzhou, Bingzhou, Yuzhou, and Youzhou...... People from multiple states. In the past, within the Han Dynasty, people in various states had bad debts with each other, and I didn't say that everyone knew it very well. But when I joined the Reconstruction Society, I had to let go of everything in the past. In my Fuxing Society, there is only one kind of person: those who work hard for the revival of the Han Dynasty! ”
"We will keep in mind the instructions of the Great Sima (elder brother). It will be a lifelong ambition to revive the Han Dynasty. ”
"Well, I would like to encourage you. Okay, that's all for today's affairs of the Reconstruction Society. Bo Yao, please tell us about our country's income and expenditure this year. ”
"Well, everybody. Yao first talked about the number of the sixth year of Jingyao (263, the year of Cao Wei's war in Shu). In this year, there were 280,000 registered households, 940,000 people, and 100,020,000 soldiers. There are 20 million acres of registered fields. In that year, taxes were paid, 580 million in money, and 4.5 million in grain. The export subsidy of Shu brocade is 130 million, the grain is 1 million stones, and the profit of salt and iron is 1.7 billion. ”
"The next three years of Yanxing are this year. There are 430,000 registered households nationwide, with a population of 1.44 million. Ninety-two thousand soldiers. There are 48 million acres of registered fields. This year's tax is 2.3 billion yuan in money and 9.6 million stone in grain. The export subsidy of Shu brocade is 600 million yuan, and the grain is 2.35 million stones. The tax revenue from salt mines, the income from iron and copper mines, and the income from money and interest amounted to 850 million. In addition, there are 4.5 million stone grain that Jiangyang Liquor Industry exchanged for our Han. To sum up, this year's income is a total of 3.75 billion yuan in money and 16.4 million stone in grain (compared with the income of the same year in the Jin Kingdom, the grain income is 60% of the Jin State, and the income of money is more than 20% of the Jin State. But the reason why the proportion of grain seems to be quite good, mainly because of the production of high wine and the large purchase of grain from Eastern Wu, in general, the national strength of Shu Han at this time is about a quarter of that of the Jin State). ”
There is no doubt that in the two years that Guan Yi has been in power, the achievements have been very obvious. The population of the most important people in a country has risen by fifty percent. The number of registered fields has more than doubled. Therefore, although Guan Yi directly reduced the field tax of Shu Han from fifteen taxes and ten yuan per mu to thirty taxes and one. But the government's real revenues have risen significantly.
"After spending various expenses such as officials' salaries, royal support, military salaries, maintenance of war horses, construction of war ships, and workers' salaries. The real income of the treasury this year is one billion and three million. 10 million stone of grain. Combined with last year's surplus, there is now a total of 4.5 billion yuan in the treasury and 14.5 million stone in grain. ”
What is this concept? Even if there is no harvest in Shuhan next year, Guan Yi can grit his teeth and survive it!
"We are waiting for the great Sima He! Congratulations to the Great Si Nong! ”
"Hehehe, congratulations."
"Ladies and gentlemen, after we have a clear understanding of our family background, it is very clear how we will do our work in the next three years. Well, folks, in addition to our regular work, there are a few things we will focus on next year. ”
"I'll wait for Da Sima's instructions."
"First of all, continue to check the household tax strongly! Ladies and gentlemen, the Han Dynasty has multiplied so much in two years, on the one hand, we captured nearly 200,000 people in the battle of Xindu and Yang'anguan two years ago. This is a great tonic. In addition, some giant beetles were copied from their homes, and a lot of people were released. There is also a serious inventory of household taxes for a year. In my official's opinion, it is unlikely that the population of my Han will rise so rapidly in the short term, but in any case, as long as we continue to work hard to check the household tax, even if we can only increase by one or two thousand people per year, it is still people! The official's thirst for the population now can be stretched out of his throat! ”
Zhang Zun was the leader, and all the magistrates present stood up together: "We will obey my brother's orders!" ”
"Good, what about the second thing. It is next year that the test method and the land occupation order will be piloted in Zitong and Brazil. In the future, what an official's performance will be, and whether he should be promoted or demoted, the first thing that the official will look at is whether the population of the county and the county has increased, and whether the registered fields have increased. Of course, in order to prevent some officials from falsely reporting their land for promotion, there are also necessary assessments, inspections, and unannounced visits. This matter is mainly the responsibility of Maotong (Chang Ji) and Chaozong (Du Zhen). ”
"I'll take my orders!"
"The third thing is the comprehensive rollout of the construction of Mongolian learning. Hehe, Xingzong, this official has prepared a million stone of grain for you this time. How's your side doing? ”
"Thank you, Da Sima. After more than a year of preparation, the teachers and teaching materials have been prepared. As long as the money and food on Da Sima's side are in place, Mengxue in various places can start work immediately. ”
"Hehe, about money and food, you ask Shulong (Li Xiang) for it. But let me tell you, Xingzong, these nineteen Mengxue schools (one in each of the nineteen counties except Fuling, Jiangyang, and Shu County) are secondary, but the quality of the houses must be absolutely safe. If something goes wrong here, hum~~~"
"Don't worry about Da Sima, Shulong and I have already taken the initiative to report to Maotong. During the construction of the 19 Mongolian schools, Maotong's subordinates monitored us throughout the whole process. ”
"Good, let's talk about the fourth thing. Expand! ”
Since the end of the great war two years ago, Guan Yi has supplemented a part of Shu Han's troops on a small scale (mainly Fuxingshe's own army). At present, the regular army of Shu Han has only 92,000 people, excluding the county soldiers who mainly play the role of maintaining law and order.
Mobile Corps, Commander Jiang Wei. Main station: Wudu County, Yinping County. Thirty-five thousand. Of these, seven thousand cavalrymen.
Hanzhong Corps, Commander Zhang Zun. Fifteen thousand.
Yongan Legion, Commander Luo Xian. Seven thousand people. Among them, there are 2,000 sailors.
Nanzhong Corps, Commander Huo Yi, 5,000 people.
Yulin Legion, Commander Guan Suo, fifteen thousand people. Of these, three thousand cavalrymen.
The Revival Corps, a total of 15,000 men. At present, it is commanded by more than a dozen students of Guan Yi, and the garrisons are mainly in Fuling and Jiangyang, mainly because it took the largest number of northern prisoners here.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's December now, and in two days it will be the fourth year of Yanxing. The official plan, early, in Yanxing five years. Late, no more than six years after Yanxing, the Northern Expedition will be launched. For the success of this Northern Expedition, we must deploy at least 120,000 troops. Leave at least 30,000 troops at home. Therefore, in the next year, the whole country will restore the strength of the army to the peak of the prime minister's time, 150,000! In other words, next year, we will increase our troops by 60,000! ”
When Guan Yi said this, the generals were fine, but the civil officials frowned: Do you want to use military force again?
Of course, Guan Yi knew that the thoughts of the people below were not uniform. But as a traverser, how could he make the mistake of being reckless? He knew very well: Shu Han, this time is just a sigh of relief.
"Zhongying!"
"Brother, please advise."
"I'll go to Shulong to draw money and grain, and Chengzuo has also prepared a burning knife of a few thousand stones for you. Your task is to go deep into the Qiang land and recruit the Qiang people to join our army. Food, money, wine, I can support you. But you have to keep in mind two things, first, don't buy the whole tribe, but just ask the tribes to buy their prisoners of war, or pay for their elite warriors. Second, as long as you can see it, and these people are willing to go with you, you must bring these people's families to the interior of my Han Dynasty to settle down. In a year's time, I will supply you with money, grain and wine, and you will return me a powerful Qiangdi cavalry! Questions? ”
"Well, the little brother has two requests."
"Speak!"
"First, ask my brother Long Zihui, the nephew of the Great General, and then assign him to me. Second, the elder brother probably guessed a few points, the source of this Qiang cavalry, the more miscellaneous the better! Therefore, in addition to recruiting in Wenshan County and Liangzhou in the Jin Kingdom, the younger brother also wanted to recruit some Yi people in Hanjia County, and at the same time, the younger brother also wanted to enter the West Sea (Qinghai Lake) to recruit some Tibetan and Tibetan people (the Tibetans had not yet formed a unified nation at this time). ”
"Very good, you fully understand the meaning of being a brother, it's all up to you. Go for it. ”
Well, next. "Meng Ming!"
"Da Sima, Mao Jiong is here."
"I went to Nanzhong this time, and I have already talked to Shao Xiangong and Xiu Minggong. With Xiu Minggong's 1,000 private soldiers as the backbone, rebuild a 10,000-strong Wudang Flying Army. You are from Yunnan, so this matter will be handed over to you! ”
"Whoa! Please rest assured that as long as the money and food can keep up, his subordinates will try their best to recruit those natives in the deep mountains to go down the mountain, so as to minimize the damage to the people's livelihood due to conscription. ”
Very good, they are all smart people.
"Ning Guo!"
"Da Sima, subordinate Yang Ji is waiting for orders."
"Jiangyang County and Fuling County are the places where my Fuxing Society started. In recent years, the number of hukou in these two places has also increased significantly. You go to Jiangyang, and there are 5,000 new spearmen. Go to Fuling, and there are 5,000 soldiers in the newly formed Mandarin Duck Array. In addition, I have already agreed with the Bu family that as long as we use our money and grain to recruit Wuxi Man from Wuling County and Tianmen County to come down the mountain, they will not interfere with our conscription. Go and levy 10,000 men for me, these two counties. ”
"Whoa! Da Sima, my Han is not short of money and food now, and it should not be difficult to recruit people. But the subordinates don't actually know the battle array......"
"Hehehe, don't worry about this, I have students Ai Fei, Li Xiang and others, who can be the commander. In addition, my guard captain Lao Ah is over seventy years old, and he really can't go to the battlefield, but not only can he not go to the battlefield, but my first guard, the fifty veterans who are not in trouble, should retire. This time, it will all be handed over to you, and you will be responsible for recruitment, overall planning, and logistical support. Training, all to them. This time, we have enough time to train, so we have to train them according to the standards of the Tiger Infantry Army or the No Difficult Army! ”
"Subordinates receive orders! Please rest assured that within a year, Da Sima will definitely return an elite! ”
