Chapter 84: I'm Scared!! (Ask for the first order, ask for a monthly pass)
"Today, the two cities of Huanggang and Haozhou have 20,000 soldiers and excellent weapons and armor. There are more than 80,000 people, 40,000 in Huanggang and 40,000 in Haozhou. ”
"The ordnance and equipment in the warehouse can be equipped with another 30,000 troops, and bows, arrows and arrows can be used for a year. Now the equipment is cast, and it can be equipped with 3,000 troops per month. ”
"Grain reserves, 40,000 stones. And it can produce more than 50,000 stone of grain in one season! ”
"This is the army's military food, now the people of the two cities have a field, has basically met their own food, according to the calculation, after the autumn harvest next year, the people of the two cities can double the amount of grain, and mainly rice."
"At that time, the taxes of the people of the two cities will be able to raise 50,000 soldiers!"
"At the same time, in accordance with the requirements of the people of Qi, the implementation of vegetable planting and animal husbandry among the people, according to the official registration, chickens, ducks, fish and pigs and other meats, as well as the output of various vegetables, can meet the daily diet of 10,000 people."
"In addition, according to the requirements of Lord Qi, vigorously discover commerce, all kinds of shops, minerals, and grain merchants in the city, and their taxes are enough to meet the needs of various government expenses......"
Listening to Shi Caiying's report, the people at the table stared at each other with big eyes.
Even though some of them don't understand these things, they can still understand the words.
Nowadays, all kinds of government expenses can be met by relying only on commercial taxes.
The people grow grain, which has met their own needs, and can even be sold.
The army reserves have reached 40,000 stones!
And you can harvest more than 50,000 koku in one season!
What kind of concept is this, only these 40,000 stone of grain can meet the rations of more than 70,000 soldiers in Huanggang, Haozhou, and Chuzhou for a year!
There are also chicken, duck and fish......
They couldn't have imagined these things before.
Xu Da is a big boss, and he doesn't understand this, but he only cares and says: "Master Shi, what do you mean by this, from today onwards, we can eat these chickens, ducks, and fish casually?" ”
Xu Da pointed to the wine and food on the table, and looked at Shi Caiying with anticipation.
Shi Caiying didn't know how to answer, so he only smiled and said, "If the marshal agrees, it will naturally be possible." ”
got Shi Caiying's confirmation, Xu Da was excited.
Turned to look at Qi Heng and said, "Brother Qi, it's amazing!" What we never dared to hope for in our lives, you actually achieved it for us! ”
Deng Youde, who had not spoken on the side, originally thought that the age difference between the two was not much, and he thought that he could compete with Qi Heng in the army with his ability, and subconsciously regarded the Qi brothers and Mr. Qi in the mouths of the brothers around him as his competitors.
But now, when he saw those earth-shaking changes on the city tower, as well as Qi Heng's exploits in the past half a year, he realized that what Qi Heng did was already a level higher than him.
Just when he was thinking about how to lead his troops to a big victory and make meritorious contributions, Qi Heng only relied on the two thousand soldiers and a dilapidated Huanggang City that he gave him at the beginning, and found that it was on such a scale as it is now.
Who still doesn't know that this year's monthly food is money, and if you have money, you will have soldiers, and if you have soldiers, you will have strength, and if you have strength, you can do whatever you want.
Now the grain production and reserves in Huanggang and Haozhou can completely double the troops!
And, as soon as these soldiers enter the camp, they can be equipped with standard weapons and armor!
Thinking about the clothes on each soldier when they just came back, and then thinking about the equipment of the soldiers in the city, I suddenly felt like a poor relative entering the city.
At this moment, he originally felt that he had become a general at a young age, with 5,000 troops, and he was the best in the entire Huaixi, but a sense of frustration suddenly rose in his heart.
But often Yuchun, as usual, sat on the side cooperatively, didn't speak, just listened quietly, like an idiot, anyway, he couldn't understand, and nothing could get into his mind.
Listening to Shi Caiying report these data, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally knew very well what these data represented.
If it had been in the past, he would have rewarded those who had made meritorious contributions, and he would not hesitate to praise them.
But at this moment, from the time he entered the city, everything he saw had exceeded his expectations, and even beyond the scope of his cognition.
In the final analysis, he is just a mud-legged general who has just gotten rid of hunger and walked out of Guo Zixing's hands with the big wave of Mingjiao's anti-Yuan.
Let him lead his troops to fight, and he can also attack the city and break the village.
Even under the original structure of the Yuan court, it was not difficult to make it work normally.
But what he saw now.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it was a political miracle that happened at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.
When they entered Huanggang City, the scene that was almost cannibalistic was not forgotten.
It's only been more than half a year, and according to the usual farming experience, even if there is manpower to plant, the first harvest may not even be ripe.
What about now.........
Without knowing it, he Zhu Yuanzhang thought that he had entered Jinling, the central town of the six provinces in the south of the Yangtze River.
I think that Haozhou City was just like this before the disaster, right?
He, Zhu Yuanzhang, is a pragmatic person.
He would not be blinded by the great interests in front of him, and he was even a little afraid.
He is the commander of the righteous army, and now Qi Heng's top boss, in the future, how should he use this person, and how should he let such a person be under his command.
Having such a subordinate who can surprise from time to time is a great thing for any person in power.
But once this subordinate's ability exceeds the expectations of the superiors, and even exceeds Zhu Yuanzhang's cognitive range now, then this is not a good thing.
On the contrary, it is torture.
When one of your subordinates surpasses him in all aspects, and even does not understand some of the methods, the excitement will only turn into panic.
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang's heart was like this.
The principle of loyalty and righteousness he adheres to tells himself that this is our kindness, our good brother, and no matter how powerful he is, it is the blessing of our righteous army.
But the panic in my heart is real.
He was scared, he was really scared.
What he was afraid of was not that this good brother who had saved his life several times would kill him and disobey him.
He, Zhu Yuanzhang, is not so small.
What he was afraid of was that his embarrassment would be exposed, and what he was afraid of was that his talent and shallowness would be seen by the subordinates present.
Although he has been trying to learn all kinds of knowledge and read all kinds of books in private.
But hard work doesn't mean having ......
At this time, all the eyes of everyone in the audience were focused on Zhu Yuanzhang.
They all knew that Zhu Yuanzhang, as the coach, should have spoken at this time.
But looking at the silent Zhu Yuanzhang and his strange expression, everyone was stunned.
wondered what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking.
Among the people at this time, only Shi Caiying and Shen Wansan saw a clue, but they couldn't be sure.
And Qi Heng, who was sitting next to Zhu Yuanzhang, was clear about Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts.
