115: Farm Reputation
The special customized version of "Historical Records" was used by Liu Jian to fool Liu Che and brush Liu Che's favorability.
At the same time, it is also to make this Liu Che think that he is indeed influencing the history of the real world, and not just the fiction creation of an online writer.
The difference between these two understandings will seriously affect Liu Che's subjective initiative as the protagonist of the world.
makes Liu Che think that he has indeed traveled to the Western Han Dynasty, and what he did in the Western Han Dynasty has really affected the development of later generations, which will add an urgent sense of historical mission to Liu Che.
On the contrary, if Liu Che knew that he was only the protagonist of a novel, he would probably start his journey to death.
Anyway, he's the protagonist, and it's impossible to die no matter how you do, so instead of living with a dream of sleeping and trembling, it's better to start dying happily.
Maybe when the time comes, Liu Che will have similar thoughts.
And Liu Jian used to brush up his prestige with something else.
Sweet potatoes, corn, potatoes, tomatoes, and high-yielding rice...... Liu Jian brought a lot of seeds of these high-yield crops to the Western Han Dynasty this time.
Relying on the capacity of Liu Jian's small space ring, it is of course impossible to use those seeds brought to promote large-scale sowing, and it is absolutely impossible at the same time.
This kind of thing has never been decided by the emperor with a pat on the head.
If you don't let the people below really understand the information about these crops and see the real benefits from them, even if they are ordered, there is a high chance that they will disobey them. What's more, some careerists most likely saw this as a perfect opportunity to deal a blow to Liu Che's new prestige.
However, it is completely feasible to let Shaofu build a test field in Shanglinyuan for trial planting.
It is conceivable that once the seeds of these high-yield crops are successfully planted, Liu Che's basic inventory will be completely stable, and even the large map of the north and south of the Yellow River east of Hangu Pass will become impregnable, and the 200 million registered population of the Western Han Dynasty can easily be fed.
200 million people, that is, the level of the middle and late Qing Dynasty.
It doesn't seem to matter much.
However, it must be understood that it is different from the Qing Dynasty, which practiced outright foolish politics and imprisoned rule. The military, economic and foreign policy of the Western Han Dynasty was quite open and enlightened, and at the same time, because it followed the ancient precept of 'no soldier is not taught and not conscripted', a fairly strict compulsory military service system was implemented.
All men were required to serve two years of military service, one year on the border of the Great Wall and one year on the county side. It is completely different from the later Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties that temporarily recruited bandits, bandits, villains, homeless people and ordinary people to go to the battlefield with little or no training.
In fact, the scale of the active soldiers of the Western Han Dynasty has not been large, but once they are about to fight, they can immediately pull out a very effective army, and the most critical reason is because the people of the Western Han Dynasty, from the nobles to the ordinary people, as long as they are adults, have basically served in the military and have received the least reliable military training.
really has a population of 200 million, even if it is a ratio of 1 per 100 draws, the Western Han Dynasty can burst out with 2 million well-equipped field troops in a short period of time.
In the era of the Western Han Dynasty, what was the concept of two million field army?
It is no exaggeration to say that it has really reached that point Liu Che pushed the Huns with one hand and Nanyue with the other, and by the way, he spat out and wiped out all the sticks and things in the island country, which was simply a matter of ease and without panting.
Even, if you really want to fight a war to destroy the country, it is not impossible to burst out an army of tens of millions.
It's just that the supplies needed by tens of millions of out-of-duty soldiers are really terrifying. Even if sweet potatoes, corn, and high-yielding rice were all popular, it would be impossible to ensure the supply of tens of millions of troops.
It's just that in this way, Liu Che's basic plate will be extremely stable. It can be said that unless he is crazy to die, the strength of the Western Han Dynasty in all aspects will inevitably be surging upward for a long period of time. And the prestige of Liu Jian, who made these high-yield crops, will inevitably rise with the tide, Zhuge Wuhou compares himself to Guan Zhong Leyi?
Is Guan Zhong Leyi very good?
Let him compare with his brother to see who is better?
Maybe Zhuge Liang's idol in later generations will directly become Liu Jian.
For Liu Jian, it was best for him to use this to brush up hundreds of thousands of brainless fans, and from then on, the problem of his lack of magic gold coins was solved at once.
Liu Xie thought in an instant that once these good breeds were successfully cultivated, they would become an incomparably powerful weapon in his hands, which could make the princes and nobles of the Western Han Dynasty wagging their tails at him and begging for mercy.
It can only be said that the ass decides the head.
Even if it is from the future, after all, he is sitting on the throne of the emperor, and Liu Xie's first consideration is whether the chair under his ass is stable enough.
"Brother, this time I gave you a golden thigh as thick as a Tyrannosaurus rex."
Liu Jian patted Liu Che on the shoulder and said: "If you think it's necessary, I'll get you a few generators and machine tools when you go back, let's not play any cavalry and infantry with the Huns, just go to the line and shoot the tactics, run over all the way from Yanmen Pass, kill and burn all the robbers, how happy." ”
said so, but both Liu Jian and Liu Che knew it.
They can't do that.
In the absence of productivity and mindsets, the cost of forcing a copy of the industrial revolution is extremely heavy.
Just look at the history books, the first and second industrial revolutions did lead to the progress of human society. But in the process of progress, the price paid is extremely cruel.
How many peasants died of hunger in European sheep eating people?
How many textile workers died of starvation due to the advent of the Jenny spinning machine?
Behind every new invention is the bones of the unemployed. In the Western Han Dynasty, this situation will be even more serious. From the historical perspective of development, these people are the outcasts who cannot keep up with social change. But sitting in Liu Che's position, you can't look at it like this.
These are his people.
If it was the Huns who were eliminated by history, Liu Che could not care.
If it was the Liehou Xungui who was eliminated by history, Liu Che would shed a few crocodile tears, and then what should he do.
But if the people who were eliminated by history were all small people who were promoted to fight, and they made Guanzhong and even the whole world complain, then Liu Che would not be able to laugh.
During the First and Second Industrial Revolutions, countless kings and queens who were guillotined were all lessons for Liu Che.
In any case, Liu Che doesn't want to follow in the 'footsteps' of these predecessors
Liu Che and Liu Jian discussed for a long time. In the end, it was decided to put these things on hold for the time being, and to work hard to do a good job in agriculture and to feed more people.
Build your own basic plate to stabilize and talk about other things.
But there is one thing that has to be made early.
Whether it is Liu Xie or Liu Jian, they all know that if there is a war against the Xiongnu, such a thing is no less important than a million army.
That's the wool loom.
