Chapter 632: Nostalgia 32

>,!

In Yizhou, the official road extends out on the side of the dirt road.

Li Fugui, who is like an arrow, was burdened by this heavy burden and walked on the slender ridge in small steps.

And I can't wait to see the women and children at home.

The price of participating in the war as an auxiliary service is that two shallow new scars have fallen behind the roots of the ears and in the inconspicuous places under the armpits.

It's a bit embarrassing to say, his injury was not because of fighting on the battlefield, but because his feet slipped and fell out when he was carrying things in the city, but he was finally injured in the line of duty, and he used ointment to stop bleeding and dissolve stasis, instead of the toner and plant ash that can be seen everywhere.

and a half-new standard large-brimmed hat, which was a memento given by several seriously wounded soldiers who were dragged down the city by him in the rain to pick up their lives.

There's also a little brass button-like thing. This is a junior duty badge that can be pinned to his chest to reward him for his contribution to the Battle of the Fort.

Therefore, the simple pattern and words of the fortress number written on it have long been smirked all the way by him, and the oil shine is shiny repeatedly.

also because of the halfway encounter with the enemy and the additional assistant chores who participated in the defense, so he finally got the signature to calculate the strength, and Kop was a lot more than others.

Because he missed the batch and in order to save money, he did not spend a few more big money with others, and took the public carriage and horse with the public, but chose the last section to walk back with both feet, at most some soles and thirst-quenching water.

And in the big bag he carried, in addition to a few vouchers representing unequal work, there were a lot of miscellaneous things. He was greedy for a cheap price difference in the small market at the mouth of the river, and exchanged a few ration tickets as a personal subsidy.

Among them, in addition to rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, cloth and other daily necessities. There are also a few gadgets that come with a bargain, such as a worthless bamboo whistle, a cup made of half a white tin can, and a piece of red and bright cloth, which are small gifts for a pair of children.

He still remembered the scene of these two little children, looking at the fire in the eyes of other people's children, but they could only pick at the mud lumps and use them as playthings.

There are even a few extra large and small cans,

These canned meat substitutes were extra personal items given to him by the old non-commissioned officer who guarded the fort, which could be used to quench his cravings and open meat throughout the winter. Dig a spoonful every once in a while, put it in the pot and fry it, that fragrant one is even if it is a festival every day.

A canned canned sugar fruit is for women. Among the expired munitions disposed of, she chose the largest and cheapest one, but she had never tasted ripe fruit and sugar in her life, and she just killed two birds with one stone.

Although you do this, you are likely to be scolded by the woman for being a loser after you go back, and then you are reluctant to eat and hide it secretly, take it and sell it sporadically for a small supply ticket, or exchange it for a few eggs or something, to make up for the body and hard work of adults and children.

He thought so ramblingly, even if the sky was gradually gloomy, it could not affect his heart in the slightest, as if he was carrying a bird, and he couldn't wait to fly home immediately.

He suddenly sneezed heavily, and felt his body suddenly tremble. It made him a little nervous, could it be that he was too tired.

Then, he noticed the chill and biting chill in front of him.

But inadvertently, in the sky, a little bit of white crystal, fluttering and falling between the ridges and ditches.

"It's snowing......"

Li Fugui felt a little cold and moist touch caught with the back of his hand, and muttered to himself

"Snow ......"

The sound of little girls cheering in the courtyard, the cat Schrödinger being tossed around, meowing in the background.

As I was looking at the newly added markers on the chart, I couldn't help but smile knowingly, the most significant of which was the Huaishui area in the south.

After all, in any era of ancient and modern times, China and foreign countries, population has always been one of the most important indicators of strength and one of the most important resources of a country or regional power.

And according to the territory of Sizhou, the latest round of exile registration. There were already more than 30,000 people from Huainan,66 who had come to Sizhou voluntarily or involuntarily with the "help" (drive) of the local army and entered the territory of Sizhou through a limited passage and pre-demarcated areas for labor and resettlement.

In addition to repairing the water conservancy embankment nearby, it is mainly used to artificially transform the water and tidal flats left after flooding in the strip-like strip along the Huai River dozens of miles wide. Prepare and lay the foundation for agricultural production in the coming years.

Even if you can't grow rice and wheat, you should try to find a way to plant sorghum and millet, or durable jicama, or even whether it is mulberry, tea, sugarcane, moso bamboo, or even trees, you must try to come in handy.

Although they will soon be eliminated by nature in the imminent winter (such as various cases of death due to fatigue and illness).

But correspondingly, it can be expected that more people will run over for a period of time in the future, and this number will continue to grow.

In this way, in addition to the servicemen who belonged to the three armies and one guard, the household registration under Huaidong's rule once again exceeded the mark of about 600,000.

Among the overseas domains, it is also a typical first-class feudal domain, belonging to the high-end princely level.

Even the Ma clan that caused continuous turmoil in Anyuan Prefecture and the former Great Situ Makuo of the National Dynasty was only of such a scale, and it was the sum of more than a dozen feudal families of all sizes and subordinates according to kinship.

Of course, it is the approximate number of the generals of the Shichen family who have been divided into multiple ranks according to the Zhou rites, as well as the new and old naturalized people.

If you add in the local tame todo and feudal slaves, there may be an increase.

However, in the Central Plains, where there were once many operas, it is not very prominent, and it has not even been able to pass the original Qingxu Town, which was known as the first in Huaibei in its heyday, the old pattern and scale, except for the chassis and control.

This shows the heavy damage that war has done to the productive forces of society and the population.

Of course, these populations under Huaidong's rule basically refer to the people who can be directly and effectively managed through the relatively strict household registration system after the original military management and the restoration of the grass-roots administrative system.

Mainly because of the existence of the three-zone system, in the gradually shrinking third type of area, there should still be a certain number of hidden and exiled populations that have not yet been included in the registration and management due to remote location or other reasons, but the corresponding number is not too much.

It is almost a ratio of ten people raising one soldier, which is not a normal situation.

It was only because of the long-term supply and supply in the rear and the benefits of the sea trade that the family invested in it with all its might, that it was gradually maintained and stabilized, and it barely had the ability to be initially self-sufficient.

Therefore, there is also a significant lack of the foundation and foundation for time accumulation, and it is easily affected by external variables.

Among these household registration ratios, excluding women, children and children, who account for most of the majority, and a very small number of the elderly; The rest are almost all young adults between the ages of sixteen and forty-five.

However, even if there are so many young adults, it is not like they want to play strategy games, click on a few numbers or pull the mouse, and they can all be assembled and mobilized casually, and they can come in handy anytime, anywhere.

In addition to the manpower required to maintain daily order in the locality and the basic operation of the local cantonment farms, the basic operation of the mines, and the basic allocation of labor.

The rest of those who can move with all their might with the political apparatus at all levels and the simple military service system at the local level are probably only about 100,000 young and middle-aged people in a few prefectures of Yiyun and Xu, which are close to the front line.

And these people are not necessarily able to meet the requirements of military service, and most of them can only undertake logistical auxiliary service, as well as relatively short-term rotational recruitment.

Only one-third to one-quarter of the personnel, who have received simple military training in the daily semi-full-time period or for a short period of time during the off-season, can serve as potential reservists and replenishments for the front-line troops.

Then, it is necessary to start from the daily duties such as guarding and patrolling the second and third lines of the rear, and gradually adapt to the order and rhythm of the army's collective drills and training, before we can consider filling in the front line to come in handy.

Others, unless they are really forced to do so, or at the last critical moment, will never be disguised as murder, and they will be easily sent to the battlefield to serve as cannon fodder in the old army.

After all, under the rule of Huaidong, it was still a traditional processing mine outside farming, and the collective intensive economic structure had more transitional elements and the nature of rights and interests.

It is really impossible to compete with the nomadic hunting and hunting grassland tribes outside the Saiwai, and every winter and spring is the cruel natural elimination of life and death, so they can only play a wave of fragile nomadic economic structure and compete for the so-called mobilization efficiency.

Compared with the Northern Dynasty or the Great Liang of the National Dynasty, the model of industrialized mining workshops and government-run farms/labor camps has inherent organizational efficiency and advantages in overall mobilization and mobilization.

But it doesn't mean that I can be at ease, like the devil country who gambled on red eyes in World War II, and directly take all kinds of skilled workers that take time and cycle to cultivate, and send them to the battlefield to fill the trenches and make cannon fodder.

However, the higher the upper limit of the population that can be accommodated, managed, and resettled, the more layers of political organization there are, and the greater the period and cost of mobilization, which is something that cannot be avoided under the existing system.

The population from various new sources also meant that the population composition under Huaidong's rule was further complicated and diversified. In the short term, it undoubtedly increases administrative costs, but in the long run it is not without benefits.
