With the singing of the war song, Li Jiancheng ordered Li Jing to start the military parade, Li Jing waved the flag, and the military parade officially began. www.biquge.info Of course, the casualties will be the largest in the whole army. Li Jiancheng deeply believes in one sentence - that is, the fertile race, its heart must be different, these grassland people, now the Central Plains is still quite strong, so they behave like a dog, but once they decline, then they will pounce on the Central Plains like wolves, bite their former owners into pieces, and eat not even bones. Moreover, the skin color and appearance of these people are very different from those of the Central Plains, and Li Jiancheng believes that he does not yet have the divine power that can turn barbarians into Zhuxia. Preparations were not made to completely integrate a race of blood and skin color into the Central Plains. The leaders are Hou Junji and Xue Wanche, Hou Junji has been guarding in Longxi for many years, Xue Wanche is a native of Youzhou, therefore, Hou Junji and Xue Wanche's riding skills are the best among Li Tang's generals. Subsequently, followed by Xie Yingdeng's Divine Arrow Battalion - the duty of the Divine Arrow Battalion is to do cover work behind the forward battalion, after the forward battalion rushes through the enemy formation, the Divine Arrow Battalion then goes up, using bows and arrows to increase the enemy's casualties, of course, there is another meaning, that is, standing behind the forward battalion to supervise the battle. This was followed by Li Tang's large army, all of which were strong and strong, more than eight feet tall, composed of infantry, cavalry, and baggage soldiers, and the infantry was divided into armor soldiers and Mo sword soldiers. And these soldiers and horses were commanded by Li Ji, Wei Chi Jingde, Qin Shubao, Chen Yanjin, Qu Tutong and others, and also covered Xiong Kuohai, Xu Kuoling, Wei Shuyu, Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui and other young generals, Li Jiancheng asked Li Jing curiously:

"The equipment of these infantry is newly developed!" Li Jing nodded:

"Yes, Your Majesty, these infantry are divided into armor soldiers and Mo sword soldiers, and the armor of the armor is the Mingguang armor of Xinsheji - now the armor of our army has completely abandoned the armor of the Wei and Jin dynasties, and has evolved into the Tang Thirteen armor represented by the Mingguang armor, the Mingguang armor is a kind of plate armor with shiny chest guards, which is very gorgeous, and the weight is lighter, but the defense power has been greatly improved. Mingguang armor uses a hood to protect the head, and there are ear guards on both sides of the hood that roll upward, and some of the pockets are also decorated with a neck neck that hangs down to the back of the shoulders; The cuirass is generally divided into two pieces on the left and right, with a longitudinal bundle in the center, and a round guard on the left and right, or a raised arc-shaped pattern; The shoulders are covered with shawls, and the arms are covered with arm guards; Waist tie, under the belt there are two knee skirts to protect the thighs, and the calves are wrapped with "hanging legs". The structure of this armor is very complete. Also, the knife of the Mo knife soldier has also been improved, the Mo knife, the long knife also, the infantry holds, the ancient chopping horse, the knife weighs fifteen pounds, also known as the machete, seven feet long, the blade is three feet long, the handle is four feet long, and the iron drill is used. The horse step waterway is salty and available. The wrestlers hold it, and those who use the waist force to spin and cut the block are all powder...... It is mostly used for cavalry operations, and its power is huge. The shape of the Mo knife is diverse, the main battle knife of the long soldier, the shape has an upgraded version of the chopping horse sword, there is a detachable handle, and there is a three-pointed two-edged knife with a long handle and a particularly short blade, which originated from the Western Han Dynasty chopping horse sword, and absorbed the shape and smelting technology of the Han Lu Mo knife and the long knife of the Six Dynasties. The Mo knife is extremely sharp and has an excellent slashing effect, and is mainly used to slash enemy cavalry in war. Each of these Mo sword soldiers had a bow and 30 arrows hanging on their waists, and a long-handled Mo knife and a spear were crossed behind their backs. The armoured soldiers also had a bow, 30 arrows, a spear, and a heavy sword with a broken handle. Li Jiancheng nodded happily, and Li Jing continued:

"Your Majesty, the baggage soldiers will be equipped with six pack horses, but because of the lack of horses, they will be replaced by donkeys, and there will be two pieces of curtains, iron horses, shovels, chisels, baskets, axes, pliers, and armor beds, one pot and one fire drill, one salt bag, and three horse reins. There is also a rice tool! Ensure that the whole army has military rations to eat! Li Jiancheng smiled:

"Good, good!" When all the soldiers and horses were inspected, Li Jiancheng watched the drill of the sergeants, under the command of the officers and soldiers who led the team, Li Jiancheng watched the equestrian performance, bow and arrow riding and archery and formation drills, and Li Jing also showed Li Jiancheng a secret weapon:

"Your Majesty, please look!"

"Hmmm! What is this!? I saw Li Jing take out something like a radish in his hand. Li Jing explained to Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty! This thing is called a fire drill, it is hollow, when fighting, pour oil on the fire drill, light a fire, and throw it directly into the position of the eastern Turks, which can ignite a large area of grassland! Li Jiancheng said in his heart - isn't this a primitive grenade! Li Jiancheng was overjoyed and felt that the day of entering the grassland would not be far away, so Li Jiancheng said loudly:

"Soldiers, I am very relieved to see you alive and vibrant, you are serving the country, I don't say anything else, I know that you are all people along the Great Wall and in Guanzhong, and your parents, brothers, sisters, and relatives must have been killed by the Turks! I tell you directly that the Turks are all devils of the steppe, and if you don't kill the devil, the devil will kill you. So, all of you who survived touched your crotch, is your bird still there? Shouldn't you avenge your parents and relatives who gave up their lives and left you behind? Li Jiancheng's words evoked painful memories for many people. Li Jiancheng continued:

"I won't let you do it in vain, don't worry, when you come back, I will definitely reward you!" After hearing Li Jiancheng's words, the soldiers and horses present cheered loudly - Li Jiancheng knew that although those soldiers could let those soldiers go to work for their lives with family feuds now, if there were no special benefits, such as houses, seats, tickets, sisters, land and other things to motivate them, who would work for you! At this time, Mingyu's father-in-law came to Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty, Lord Xue Lin, the head of the household department, and Lord Huang Wenqing, the waiter, have already arrived."

"Oh! Well, immediately upload them to the audience! ”

"Yes!"

"Minister Xue Lin see Your Majesty!"

"Minister Huang Wenqing see Your Majesty!"

"Flatten! Xue Aiqing! Huang Aiqing! What do you think of the secret message I have given you? Xue Lin and Huang Wenqing glanced at each other, and Xue Lin spoke first:

"Your Majesty, the bond you mentioned, the minister and the officials of the household department have discussed, now that our dynasty has been established for less than fifteen years, and Your Majesty has just rectified the finances, and the finance of our dynasty has just improved a little, if this bond is issued, I am afraid it will be a little ......" Li Jiancheng just gave Xue Lin, the secretary of the household department, and Huang Wenqing, the head of the household department, a few days ago, and now that the northern expedition is imminent, the problem of military spending has been temporarily solved, but the entire treasury is about to be emptied, so after the end of the war, the rewards of the army soldiers and the pensions of the dead and wounded soldiers, The court can't take it out, the generals are easy to handle, and when the time comes, it will be easy to deal with a few titles and a few levels of official positions, but those Qiu Eight Masters will not care about you at that time, once there is no money to reward and pension, those Qiu Eight Masters are likely to mutiny. As a result, Li Jiancheng wanted to raise money in the form of bonds—bonds are nothing new on earth.

In fact, during the Peloponnesian War in classical Greece, Athens and Sparta had already begun to issue their first original bonds in order to win the war.

However, in the end, all the bondholders defaulted......

This made all those who bought the bonds, mainly the major temples, to be pitted with tears.

Since then, the bonds of the Euro 6 world have disappeared for a long time.

However, the European 6 people are good at playing and are naturally good at finance, and soon after, during the Macedonian Empire, a kind of Dongdong called the package tax system appeared.

The specific method of operation is that the state sells the tax amount of a region, for example, a certain city-state in Greece to a private person, and then all the taxes of this city-state are collected by this person, and it is his ability to collect as much as he can...... This method was also used by the Mongol Empire in later generations, but Li Jiancheng was not ready to use it, because the Mongols sold the tax revenue to the Vultures merchants, and the Vulture merchants spent a little bit of the principal, and then used the privileges granted by the Mongols to collect everywhere, causing many people to die. Therefore, Li Jiancheng decided to issue Li Tang's first batch of bonds. Huang Wenqing continued to Li Jiancheng:

"Your Majesty, the bond thing, I'm afraid that the people of Chang'an don't understand Your Majesty's painstaking efforts, and I'm afraid that the minister will form the old road of the White Deer Coin during the period of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty." White Deer Coin - A currency issued during the period of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty Liu Che, this White Deer Coin is, as the name suggests, is a one-foot-long deer skin. But its value is so high that it scares people to death! The cheapest is also worth a gold! The most expensive is worth 3,000 gold! But in the beginning, the value of this White Deer Coin was very strong! So much so that many people have begun to counterfeit White Deer coins. There are even lieges who forge white deer coins to make profits. It's a pity...... Because there was no equivalent to support it, the White Deer Coin eventually avalanche. Since the tragedy of the White Deer coin, the credibility of the Han government has been reduced to zero, and since then, the people have not accepted any other currency except five baht coins and gold. Also, the treasure money incident of the Ming Dynasty made Li Jiancheng more vigilant. In fact, the treasure banknotes of the Ming Dynasty still have a certain credibility in the first few decades, and the currency value is very strong. During the Hongwu period, the difference between consistent treasure banknotes and consistent copper coins was not obvious. The people are also accustomed to using treasure money. But alas...... For the same reason - the treasure banknote has no equivalent support, and there is no reserve, coupled with the prevalence of counterfeiting, the Daming treasure banknote continues to depreciate, and finally becomes a pile of waste paper! Since the abolition of the treasure banknote, the Ming Dynasty has fallen into a deepening financial crisis, and finally died of poverty! Before Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself, it is said that even the dragon robe on his body was patched...... Of course, in addition to countless failure cases, there are also successful cases in Chinese history. For example, the flying money in the late Tang Dynasty was a success.

The so-called flying money is actually a kind of acceptance check. Since you deposit money in a local government, the government will issue a voucher for you, and then you can use this voucher to withdraw money from other places. The so-called '100,000 yuan around the waist and riding a crane down to Yangzhou' is talking about the era of flying money. And Feiqian is the predecessor of Jiaozi and Huizi in the Song Dynasty. Whether it is Feiqian in the Tang Dynasty, or Jiaozi and Huizi in the Song Dynasty, in fact, there is no equivalent as support at all, let alone reserves as a means to deal with the run. It is purely supported by the credibility of the country. But because of the reliability of acceptance, it was a great success. Through these examples, Li Jiancheng knows what to do:

"Two Aiqing, I am well aware of your concerns, and I have already thought about them." Xue Lin and Huang Wenqing looked at Li Jiancheng, waiting for Li Jiancheng's next instruction.
