Chapter 236: The Current Situation of the Nine Towns
The rolling stream is clear, and the passing water flows eastward.
Since the emperor and queen traveled to the southeast continent, it has been eight months now, although the emperor does not sit in the town and the capital town, the eight towns are still performing their duties, and the internal affairs, construction, military, and politics are handled in an orderly manner, and the short period of eight months has been earth-shaking changes.
As an important hinterland among the eight towns, Shuzhen has priority access to resources from all parties, and is the most rapidly developing town among the eight towns. Huang Zhong, the commander of the Shenyu battalion, traveled with the emperor to other states, and the post of general praised due to the ban, during this period, 60,000 new soldiers were recruited, and the well-trained elite soldiers increased to 40,000, totaling 60,000 elite soldiers.
In the Changyun army, with Guan Yu as the main general Ma Chao and Zhang Fei as the deputy general, 30,000 elite soldiers were newly recruited, mainly spears and broadswords, that is, they were good at riding and walking, and they belonged to the comprehensive type of soldiers who could be used in cavalry and foot warfare. Another special unit, the Holke cavalry unit, remained at 20,000 men due to special reasons, and did not increase or decrease.
The Holke cavalry needs a special mount "Holke Turkey", and there is no specific cultivation method in the Tang Kingdom, and it is in the experimental stage, but the 20,000 Holke cavalry has been greatly improved after the training of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Ma Chao and other fierce generals.
Zhuge Liang was an all-round Taishou, in addition to the substantial increase in military combat effectiveness, other internal affairs such as agriculture and economy in Shu Town were also steadily improved under his management, reaching the task standards assigned by Tang Xiaobai when he left.
Under the management and management of Yuan Tongfei Yi and Mi Fang, at the time of this year's autumn harvest, the grain output increased by 35 percent compared with last year. The variety of various types of food has also been expanded, from the basic needs of wheat, millet, rice, and beans at the beginning, to the needs of hemp, cotton, bamboo, and other daily necessities.
At the same time, Fei Yi also proposed to Yuan Tong, the Taishou "planting industry is on the right track, when the development of the breeding industry" important development plan. Divide the fish pond in the area of the branch of the Qinghe River in Song Town, and select 12 kinds of fish suitable for breeding through the way of selecting fish and fish fry, and put them into the fish pond together, with a preliminary estimate of 20 million catties per year, which is enough to meet the daily needs of the current population of the nine towns.
It has also divided into chicken farms, pig farms, cattle farms and other animal breeding sites that can be raised at present, and they have been able to harvest after breeding. Of course, the chickens raised here are the big gray chickens that Tang Xiaobai ate at the beginning...... For a time, Song Town became an agricultural town with the fewest soldiers, the weakest combat power, and the broadest land.
Song Zhen Taishou Yuan Tong has advanced ideas and long-term vision, and he has integrated many of Tang Xiaobai's ideas into the management of Song Town. The so-called promotion of economic development with agriculture means that he contracted out all the tasks of breeding and planting, so that ordinary people could have their own farms and land, and also promoted the agricultural assistance plan, which was respected by the people of Song Town.
In this way, all the people in Song Town have entered the state that everyone has land and everyone has land, and they no longer farm for the country, but for themselves, which has mobilized their enthusiasm for work.
Wu Zhen is as leisurely as ever, and the people living here enjoy the peaceful life, but they will hear the sound of shipbuilding coming from the military base at sea every day, and they are very proud to see the warships coming out of the base.
But when it comes to military development, it must be Wei Zhen.
Wei Zhen is too guarded by Cao Cao is a military maniac, he handed over all internal affairs to Xun Yu, and plunged into military construction, although Wei Zhen only has a Xuan Barracks to guard, but this Xuan Barracks is the strongest comprehensive ability in the twelve arms of the Tang State, in the construction of Cao Cao's thunder means, there are currently 60,000 Xuanjia cavalry alone, and there are as many as 100,000 Xuanjia infantry.
A proper steel lion, the number of soldiers is more than the people of Wei Town.
Many people may not understand why there are more soldiers in a small town than the population of the common people, and the reason is nothing more than Cao Cao's small means.
He remembered what Tang Xiaobai said at the beginning, conscription is not about terrain distinction, but whether it is suitable, if it is suitable, it is okay to go to other towns to recruit soldiers.
So, he personally wrote a notice, the content of which is vigorous and heroic, from guarding the family for the country to living for the heavens and the earth, which makes people feel full of pride in their hearts, especially the military salary promised later is more than two or three times that of other military camps, which makes it easy for people to impulsively sign up for the army.
He posted notices to all parts of the Nine Towns, even Jingzhen did not let go, and later after the deputy general of the Dragon Shadow Army who stayed in Jingzhen personally went to the Taishou Mansion of Wei Town to sleep with him for one night, he did not post notices in Jingzhen.
If Tang Xiaobai was here, he would definitely cry and laugh, he had seen psoriasis with small advertisements, and he had also seen small advertisements begging for children, but he was so big, he really hadn't seen anyone who posted small advertisements to recruit soldiers, especially the person who arranged this was Cao Cao......
Oh, yes, there's another place he can't stick into, and that's Shu Town. At first, Zhuge Liang also asked, Cao Taishou, there is a word in your name, but what about your discipline? Later, Zhuge Liang was not polite, and since then, all the soldiers sent out to post small advertisements will disappear as long as they enter the range of Shu Town, and when they are found, those soldiers are unwilling to return to Wei Town.
Although he didn't know what tricks Zhuge Old Pifu used to confuse his mind, he couldn't say anything, looking back, the 140,000 Xuan Soldiers Camp was enough for him to train for a period of time, so it stopped.
Dragontown, under the management of the SSSR-level god Curry, has bred ten dragons, three in the juvenile stage, three in the growth stage, three in the domestication stage, and a fully mature dragon that is currently serving as his mount. Although Dragon Town is the slowest in all aspects of the Nine Towns, it has to be said that the potential of Dragon Town is also great.
Ming Town, Qin Town, and Tang Town do not have too many characteristics, everything is developing according to the original plan, except for the great improvement in combat effectiveness, the growth in other aspects is not obvious, and it belongs to a relatively mediocre town.
On the whole, the current strength of the Tang State has reached a realm of rebirth compared with when Tang Xiaobai was there, and the total number of troops in each town is 350,000, and this force is already invincible at this stage of the show.
However, although the Tang Kingdom has a tiger and wolf army and has such a strong combat power, there are still some people who like to do something self-righteous.
