022 On the county town gall pottery

But when they saw the army behind him, the people began to believe it, and those soldiers, especially the two or three thousand sergeants in the front, had been motionless and silent since they first began to stand. Each of them has serious and solemn expressions, like statues.

If it's a few dozen people, two or three thousand people stand still for a long time, and the momentum is calm, that kind of scene is enough to shock!

What's even more surprising is that more than 2,000 people are in a row of six people, looking up like six straight lines into the distance, it seems that not only are the front, back, left and right equally spaced, but more than 2,000 people even have the same movements! Just like a whole, I have to sigh at the strictness of the discipline of this army!

Thinking that such a strong soldier would come to protect the giant deer in the future, the people of the gall Tao were worried about the pressure of the Black Mountain thief army.

Guo Dian is also a person who knows soldiers, but after a little look, he was immediately shocked on the spot!

After a while, Guo Dian came to his senses and said movingly: "It's really a tiger and wolf teacher!" No wonder the general was able to defeat the Dong thief outside the Tiger Prison Pass, the old man because of the strong neighbors of Montenegro on the side, he could not sleep peacefully every day, and often had a heart of worry, and now the general is sitting here, and the people of Julu have no worries since then. Then he sincerely took Wen Yuan's hand until he reached the suspension bridge outside the city.

Guo Dian personally held the seal ribbon household registration account book to Wenyuan, so that it was handed over, Wenyuan took the official seal wrapped in silk, although his face was calm, but his heart was like a tsunami, this is the first foundation he owned!

Wen Yuan helped the former Taishou Guo Dian to get on the horse, and the people of Gon Tao had long been amazed by Wen Yuan and his army, and the two entered the city in the cheers of the people.

After handing over the seals, Guo Dian led Wen Yuan to the Julu Mansion Treasury to check the materials and grain.

The Eastern Han Dynasty implemented the rent system, sub-rent and endowment, and the land rent was according to thirty taxes, and it was not changed to rent modulation until the time of Emperor Wu of Wei.

Given to Ding, including calculation, mouth, and more.

The calculation is a poll tax levied on people aged 15~56, and the tax rate is 120 yuan per person per year; The oral tax is levied on children aged 7~14, and the tax rate is 23 yuan per person per year; According to the Han system, all adult men are required to serve the government, and those who are unwilling or unable to serve in person can pay the government to hire someone instead.

In addition, the Han family implements a three-level leadership system of prefectures, counties and counties, after the autumn harvest in July every year, the people need to pay the fields and grains to the county government at the end of the year, and they also have to pay various taxes before the end of the year. When Wen Yuan was the magistrate of Xiaqu County, he had to rely on the state and county to support the money and grain, and after becoming a county taishou, he mastered his own finances, so that Wen Yuan had the ability to raise his own troops.

And in fact, at the end of the Han Dynasty, some county towns were in opposition to each other, and they did not pay the money and grain taxes at all, and they took their own expenses, just like an independent small court.

While listening to Guo Dian's introduction, Wen Yuan carefully looked at the household registration account book.

Julu County has 15 counties under its jurisdiction, which are the county of Gall Tao, Yang's, Yun (to Yuan Jiaxiao) County, Xiaquyang, Nanlu (to the mouth to go to the car + Yan), Ren County, Pingxiang, Nanhe, Julu, Guanggan, Quzhou, Guangzong, Guangnian, Zhangzhang, and Lieren.

According to the household register, Julu has 2,768,482 mu of land, 75,893 households, 357,526 mouths, and about 70,000 adults. The rest are elderly, weak, women and children.

However, this is only a record in the account books, although there have been no major wars in the past few years, but the Montenegrin army has been looting every year, and the population of Julu has fled every year, I believe that there is definitely no such number.

Wen Yuan guessed that at this time, Julu should still have 50,000 or 60,000 households, more than 2 million acres of land, according to calculations, the normal tax of Julu every year can get 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, about 30 million yuan, so half of it is handed over to the state capital, and there are more than 100,000 grains left, and more than 100,000 yuan of money.

Such a small amount of money and food is only enough to support six or seven thousand soldiers, no wonder Wen Yuan saw that there were only four thousand guards in the county town.

And now Guang Wenyuan himself has brought 3,000 soldiers from Xiaquyang, 5,000 state soldiers, a total of 8,000 military horses, plus the soldiers left behind in Xiaquyang, a total of more than 10,000, so plus the county and county guards, Julu City now has about 20,000 soldiers!

With more than 300,000 tired people to raise 20,000 troops, the burden can be imagined how heavy it will be, of course, if Wen Yuan increases taxes more, 20,000 troops can also cope with it, but Wen Yuan was so difficult in Quyang that he was unwilling to exploit the people, and now he has become a county Taishou and is even more unwilling to change his original intention!

Fortunately, before coming here, Han Fu allocated 100,000 grains and grass from the state city, which was enough for 5,000 soldiers to eat for a year, and the county government treasury also left 210,000 grains, more than 8 million yuan, and more than 4,000 horses, which could be supported for a while. There is no need to make a decision on money and food for the time being.

Out of the treasury, Guo Dian went to the arsenal again, there are more than 200 pairs of iron armor, more than 2,000 sets of leather armor, more than 3,000 guns, more than 1,000 halberds, more than 4,000 knives, 700 strong bows, 500 foot bows, more than 100 crossbows, more than 20,000 arrows, etc., the city is equipped with 16 stone crossbows, in addition to more than 30,000 catties of pig iron.

So many treasures are enough for Wen Yuan to arm thousands of recruits, but Wen Yuan is worried that the battle equipment will be damaged and replenished, and the troops will be bloated at this time, so he has no intention of moving for a while.

However, the more than 200 pairs of iron armor Wenyuan will not let go no matter what, he called Jiao Touch to whisper a few words, Jiao Touch was overjoyed, and turned around to call more than 200 foot soldiers who were not wearing iron armor, and with a wave of his hand, he happily moved these more than 200 sets of iron armor out of the treasury.

In addition to the iron armor, Wen Yuan also showed a strong interest in the crossbow in the library, after all, this kind of thing was a big killer at that time! The imperial court explicitly forbade the use of any group or individual other than the army, even if it was an army, it was not a ragtag army that could have it, just like Wen Yuan, who now only had thousands of strong bows or horn bows in his hands.

The main crossbows of the Han Dynasty are. Rhubarb crossbow, rhubarb crossbow, rhubarb force ten stone crossbow, rhubarb ginseng crossbow, among which rhubarb ginseng crossbow is said to be the most famous crossbow in the Western Han Dynasty, it may be made on the basis of the Qin Dynasty crossbow, and only a general like Li Guang in the army is qualified to use, Li Guang used this crossbow to shoot Zuo Xianwang and several other people, but Wenyuan's rhubarb ginseng crossbow needs great strength to pull, how did Li Guang use it at the beginning.

Classified by stone, there are more than ten kinds of "crossbows", "two stone crossbows", "three stone crossbows", "five stone crossbows", "six stone crossbows", "eight stone crossbows" and "ten stone crossbows".

The more than 100 crossbows in the Julu arsenal are two-stone crossbows, with a range of about 120 meters, and the stronger three-stone crossbows have a range of 189 meters!
