Chapter 643: A New Round of Army Expansion
"My lord, now we have a total of 3.35 million people in the four counties of Liaodong, of which about 1.2 million have joined less than a year."
Sun Qian reported a set of data, this set of data is very critical, more than one million people less than a year, that is to say, this more than one million people, at present, can not be produced, and Liaodong needs to continue to support.
However, Liaodong has formed a mechanism that will not support them for a year in vain, but will arrange them to work.
Liaodong, which is rich in reserves, has also been exhausted by this group of people.
"My lord, now that the four counties have begun to collect a large amount of taxes, aside from the expenditure of resettlement of displaced people, there can be a large surplus every year, of which commercial taxes have accounted for forty percent." Sun Qian took the notebook and continued.
Sun Qian read over the income and several expenses, and if there was no resettlement of displaced people, Liaodong could indeed have a large surplus this year.
It can be said that these surpluses can be used to support the army, and it is no longer a problem to raise an extra 15,000.
It took a lot of money to settle the people before, but this money was completely taken from the money that Ye Chen had collected back, so Liaodong's finances were still very good.
With financial support, the expansion of the army is not a dream.
"How many of the college's students are in the administrative system this year?"
The students of the academy are not many engaged in government affairs after graduation, and many of them also enter the business system and enter the workshop.
"My lord, this year, the college has provided more than 400 talents of all kinds for me in Liaodong, and sixty percent of them have entered the government at all levels." Sun Qian replied.
Ye Chen nodded, talents are absolutely very important, Liaodong is remote, and there are few talents, so it should be cultivated more.
Ye Chen inquired in detail about all aspects of Liaodong, went to each county in detail, and had an in-depth understanding.
Later, only about 30% of the large number of displaced people were arranged in Liaodong County, and most of the others were placed in the other three counties, so that the remaining three counties could also be developed.
There is Shenyang City in Xuansu County, this strong city, there are more than 200,000 people nearby, and it is already a veritable strong city.
Once it is really necessary to start a war in Shenyang City, and the people enter the city, as long as the reserves in the city are sufficient, they will not easily fall if the enemy attacks.
At the same time, Wangping City has also been built, and at the same time a large number of people have been settled, and the cities with the people are Jiancheng and Xiongcheng.
Just having a strong defense, not enough people to defend is useless, and at the same time, a strong city also needs a large number of people to constantly make blood.
Ye Chen understood this very well, and placed a large number of people in key cities, enriching not only the defense, but also the economic foundation.
There is a big city to rely on, to enrich the population, in the future will naturally form a prosperous big city, when the time comes, the business will be developed, it will form a good economic foundation, and continue to produce hematopoietic capacity.
Most of the arrangements of the four counties in eastern Liaoning are focused on some key nodes, and the scale is formed first.
"Well, the schools everywhere must continue to invest, and we will need more and more people in the future." After listening to Sun Gan's report, Ye Chen said.
"Don't worry, my lord, now we have a large number of gentlemen, as long as the school is established, we can open it." Sun Qian said.
A school, the most important thing is to have teachers, in recent years, a large number of talents have been cultivated, and it is no problem to assign to junior schools in various places.
The junior academy does not teach advanced knowledge, so there is no need for many advanced talents, and these gentlemen from the junior academy also have to keep learning, they can study by themselves, and then take a certain amount of time every year to study in the senior academy, so that they can continue to improve.
In terms of talent training, Ye Chen did not hesitate to invest, and now in the senior school, a group of talents have gathered in various disciplines, so that they can continue to study and learn, and all kinds of knowledge will be naturally enriched.
"After listening to the report, Liaodong has made great achievements, and this achievement is the result of everyone's joint efforts." Ye Chen praised them, as the master, how to control the majesty is very important.
Several people were also very excited after listening to Ye Chen's words, Liaodong's achievements are indeed remarkable, and they are participants, and the sense of accomplishment is not in their chests.
"Then, next, Liaodong has reached another critical juncture, now the whole world is in chaos, all the princes have begun to expand their military strength, attacking each other, we must also keep up, otherwise sooner or later we will be annexed."
Ye Chen stopped, looked at a few people, and then continued: "The world will be united for a long time, if there are dozens of princes today, only one side can win in the future, although the name of the Han Dynasty is there, it has long been extinct, even if we want to rule the people, our families, wives and children, we have to fight with them." ”
Ye Chen said that the Great Han had perished, and several people were shocked, although everyone understood very clearly that this Great Han had already existed in name only, but the emperor was still there, so they subconsciously avoided this problem.
In the past, Ye Chen did not openly want to stand on his own, and he had always respected the Han family on the surface, but today, he no longer planned to let the Han family be under his hands.
We must come out of the shadow of the Han family and boldly overthrow this decadent dynasty.
For example, among the princes today, there are no longer a few honorable Han rooms.
The Han family is just a tool for them to utilize.
"My lord, I understand that the princes are in a war of annexation, and sooner or later the world will be unified again, and if we lose, how many of you here will have a better time." Guo Jia took a deep breath and immediately came out to support Ye Chen.
Tai Shi Ci and Zhao Yun reacted, and immediately echoed Ye Chen.
Guan Yu naturally did not suspect Ye Chen, he had been with Ye Chen for a long time, and he had come with him all the way, Ye Chen had an antipathy, he had already known it, and he didn't feel wrong.
After everyone expressed their positions, Ye Chen nodded with satisfaction.
This statement is very important, if he doesn't make a statement, Ye Chen can't trust him, and it is impossible to be half-hearted after making a statement, that will be spurned by the world.
"Well, with your support, great things can be done." Ye Chen waved his hand and achieved today's goal, and then he could do the next thing.
"Although my Liaodong army is strong, its number is scarce, so from today onwards, we will immediately recruit more than 10,000 soldiers, and the number of soldiers who can fight in Liaodong must reach 30,000, and another 20,000 people can stay behind to defend the city."
Expanding the army, there are several generals here, there is no one who does not support it, as a general, how can there be a small army.
Sun Qian and Bai Feng have no objections, and now Liaodong has a solid foundation, with 50,000 soldiers and horses, and it is completely raised.
Ye Chen began to assign tasks, and several generals were assigned tasks, and recruiting and training depended on them.
"Bai Feng, you immediately follow what is written above and build enough weapons and equipment." Ye Chen handed over what he had written along the way to Bai Feng and asked him to arrange it.
Now Bai Feng is still re-managing Yuxian, which is an equipment manufacturing center, an economic center, and a cultural center, all because there are a large number of workshops here, and the high-level school is also located there, and it is also the most important port in Liaodong, so Ye Chen handed over the task to him.
Bai Feng took it, looked at the content on it, and couldn't help but take a deep breath, and secretly said in his heart that Ye Chen was generous.
