Chapter 0372 As soon as the cannon sounded, there were ten thousand taels of gold

After making it clear that 'I can't help with this, the captain will do it himself', only a few hours later, the general of the cavalry, Li Ji, received the order from the captain Zhou Bo.

——In accordance with the edict of His Majesty, the general of the chariot and cavalry, and the governor of Pyongyang!

Almost at the same time that the news was received, Zhou Bo's notice in the name of the central government of the Han Dynasty was also posted on the city of Pyongyang.

The content of Anmin's notice was jointly drafted by Prime Minister Chen Ping and Neishi Wang Ling before the army set out, and was sealed by Liu Ying, the son of heaven, with a nod and a seal, sprinkled with thousands of words, and the content was extremely detailed.

But if you summarize it, it is the following points.

First, from now on, the entire Korean Peninsula from the west and north to the East China Sea in the east and south will be officially included in the territory of the Han Dynasty!

The Korean tribes such as Mahan, Chenhan, and Zhenban sent an envoy to Chang'an in March of spring at the latest, and asked for ministers to be canonized by the Han; If you don't fulfill the promise, you will be seen as rebellious!

Second: All the people of Korea, regardless of their official position or rank, shall be pardoned for their earlier sins;

When encountering Han Jia and Han Banner on the way, you should avoid the road and give way; When you see Han officials and Han generals, you should kneel and worship.

Anyone who has a sword and goes to the Han soldiers, Han generals, and Han officials will be regarded as thieves and beheaded!

Third, the 'Pyongyang Governor' was set up in 10 miles north of Pyongyang with 10,000 troops, the 'Eastern Commander' was set up in 300 miles east of Pyongyang with 10,000 troops, and the 'Huì) Commander was set up in 200 miles south of Pyongyang with 10,000 troops.

All the captains of Pyongyang, the eastern governors, and the guards are not allowed to approach with swords and armor for ten miles, and those who violate them will be immediately beheaded!

Fourth: order the people of North Korea to go to the Pyongyang Governor, the Eastern Governor, and the Huhao Governor's Office as soon as possible and nearby, register their household registration, and make up their names;

By autumn and September at the latest, the people of Korea should work and work according to their household registration; Those who do not have a household registration are regarded as 'Yi', and they are not guilty of arrest or killing······

When the news broke, after a brief panic in the city, Pyongyang took the lead in entering the orderly process of 'making up all households'.

At first, the uneasiness was written on the faces of every North Korean who walked out of their homes and came to the registration office.

But it soon became clear that this 'family with the same name' did not seem to cause any harm to themselves.

The 'registration offices' outside the Joseon royal palace are all equipped with former local officials without exception to provide translation work for the local people;

And next to the groveling translators, there sat a tall and burly Han general, but not fierce.

These people have serious faces and cold tones, and even cover their mouths and noses from time to time, feeling contempt for the locals who emit a stench on their bodies;

But in any case, not a single Han army general has attacked any of the people of Pyongyang for any reason.

On the contrary, it was the selflessness, ruthlessness and arrogance of the Han army generals, and even a faint disdainful temperament, which made the people of Pyongyang feel inexplicably at ease.

As a result, instead of suffering any losses, the people of Pyongyang who came to register their household registration received pieces of wooden desecration that were not exquisite, but were incomparably precious.

On the top of the wooden blocks, the names, places of origin, physical characteristics, and family structure of the people of Pyongyang are written.

Looking at the North Korean men, they were satisfied with the hukou Mu Du in their arms, trotting to their respective huts, and standing on top of the city, they only felt a good mood.

In the original plan, Zhou Bo, the Tai Lieutenant who was in charge of the 'affairs of the people', also led most of the Han soldiers who participated in the battle on the second day of the destruction of Pyongyang, and embarked on a long journey back to the DPRK······

·

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!"

"Liaodong is a great victory, the thieves of Weiman fled without a fight, and its capital Pyongyang is self-defeating.

In the middle of winter and October, the battle report of the great victory of the Eastern Expedition was finally delivered to Chang'an, the capital of the Han Dynasty.

And for such a seemingly unremarkable victory, the ministers and officials showed unusual excitement.

- Win without a fight!

No matter how weak the place is, no matter how great the disparity in strength between the two sides is, before a 'war to destroy the country', it will always make people feel extremely excited to subvert their society without bloodshed!

Of course, if it was just to destroy a North Korea, then the Han courtiers and officials would not be happy like this.

The truth of the matter is that from this war to subvert the Wei family's Joseon Society, almost every Han courtier saw a possibility that made people unable to suppress their joy······

"This is all the soldiers' lives, and the ministers and ministers Cao work together to achieve this great victory."

"I don't dare to add my own body to this work."

Looking at the courtiers and officials and meritorious princes gathered in the greenhouse hall, congratulating in unison in front of him, Liu Ying only smiled lightly and politely, and lowered his head with a dark gaze.

For this war, Liu Ying did not feel very happy, or unexpected.

In the eyes of outsiders, or the ministers and officials of the DPRK and China, this battle may be a clear proof of 'God bless Liu Han', and it is a great victory worthy of the joy of the whole country;

But as the driving force behind this battle, Liu Ying already had a full grasp of the final result long before the war began.

The reason is very simple: in this battle, under the huge gap in strength between the enemy and us, Liu Ying, as the Son of Heaven, did not show even the slightest stinginess.

Before the war, Chang'an Chaotang Temple calculated: Wei Man, who occupied the northern half of the Korean Peninsula, would not have more than 5,000 troops under his command; Even taking into account the forced conscription of the people, the possibility of recruiting all the men who can fight is not more than 20,000 at most.

And in this 'war of annihilation', in which there was no head-on collision from beginning to end, in order to deal with Wei Man's 5,000 to 20,000 troops, the Han family invested more than ten times as many troops!

——In Guanzhong, the court recruited the good family of Guanzhong, formed an elite force of more than 100,000 people, and sent all of them to Hangu Pass!

In addition, Liu Ying deliberately issued an edict to encourage the civil forces in Kwantung to join the army enthusiastically, and the court should bear all the expenses.

In addition, the coach Zhou Bo, the deputy marshal Li Ji, and Yan Xiangluan Bu each relied on their personal charm to collect the 'heroes' in Guanzhong, as well as the second generation of the heroes who went out with the army, and the private armed forces taken away from home······

It is no exaggeration to say: In order to annihilate Weiman Korea, in this battle, the Han family gathered no less than 200,000 army troops alone!

In addition to these 200,000 people, in order to ensure that the war ended as quickly as possible, Liu Ying even mobilized the county soldiers of Qi and Chu to conduct amphibious landing operations, completely crushing Wei's determination to resist Korea.

For those who do not know the internal reasons and only pay attention to the war itself, such a battle process is naturally extremely exciting.

-- Hundreds of thousands of troops drove out of the swallow thistle, crossed the river to the east, carried out wanton activities outside the national border, and went straight to the enemy's capital; The sleeping troops moved slowly along the coast, leaving the coastline at a distance of several hundred miles from the strategic target, making a slight circle, and then suddenly appearing on the coast seventy miles from the city of Pyongyang······

It is no exaggeration to say that even the war simulation games of later generations rarely have such light-hearted content.

But no one knew that the perfect result of 'bloodless soldiers' and 'victory without a fight', and the 'self-defeating' of Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea, were all piled up by the Shaofu under the control of Liu Ying, with copper coins, cartloads and even boats and boats of grain.

There is no need to say anything else: since the army set out from Chang'an, in just over two months, more than 200,000 combat units alone have consumed nearly one million stone of military rations in Shaofu!

If this is the only item, it is better to say that the benefits of the government grain and rice of the Shaofu government are far less than one million stones a year; If only one million stones can destroy Weiman Korea, then for the Han court, this deal is obviously extremely cost-effective.

But the fact is: if you don't belong to your family, you won't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive······

——In order to send this more than one million stone of grain to the front line and hand it over to the combat troops, the Chang'an Central Committee also spent nearly one million stone at a cost!

These include rations and subsidies for grain carriers, as well as some unexpected consumption of grain transported by water.

So in fact, in just two months, the actual battle may not even be less than the 20-day battle of 'Destroying Wei's Korea', and the Chang'an Central Committee has already spent 2 million stone on military rations alone!

Coupled with the return of the large army and the disbandment of local forces in the Kanto region, it is simply impossible to smash in millions of stone of grain.

That adds up, that's three million stones.

In the people, 3 million stone of grain is enough for 10,000 households, and they will be fed for three years······

That's just part of the cost of this battle;

In addition to military rations, Shaofu also mobilized various materials sufficient for the more than 200,000 combat units, such as vinegar cloth, meat, dried fruits and vegetables, sauce, and winter supplies that were ready to be sent to the front line at any time in case of emergency preparations.

This investment is the real 'big head'.

-- 3 million stone of grain, according to the current grain price of '120 yuan and 1 stone' in Chang'an this year, is only 360,000 yuan, which is completely within the acceptable range.

However, in order to supply the army's supplementary food, meat, and winter materials, the cost of Shaofu's investment was as high as 150,000 yuan······

It is true that the winter supplies prepared in advance for the army by the ancestors did not come in handy;

The hundreds of thousands of sets of winter clothes and thick mattresses can be stored in Shaofu and taken out when needed in the future.

But in any case, this cost, Shaofu has already smashed it solidly.

In addition, after the war, the rewards of meritorious soldiers, casualty pensions and other follow-up expenses······

It is no exaggeration to say that this battle was not won by the Han family at all by fighting the battlefield, but by spending at least 200,000 yuan of huge funds and smashing money and grain to win!

With such a huge cost investment, Liu Ying is pleased with the final result, which is expected.

- In the future, if someone spends two dollars and wins a lottery ticket worth five million, it will definitely be a great joy worth running to;

But if it is a rich man who has saved hundreds of millions of dollars in the bank, bears the risk of bank bankruptcy, and is afraid for half a year before finally earning five million in interest, I am afraid it is not something to be happy about, or even something worth making people feel emotional.

To put it simply, it is that with a large enough investment, the corresponding or even uncorresponding, returns, do not make people feel too excited.

Even if the 'weak return' here seems so far away to ordinary people, it is so beautiful.

"That is, the Korean war has been decided, and the importance of the court should be the post-war matter."

After everyone vented their joy with the people around them with red faces, Liu Ying coldly broke out a basin of cold water and pulled everyone's hearts back to their eyes.

Liu Ying is very clear: why would a Korean battle make these heroes who have been in battle for a long time and have experienced the change of dynasty show such excitement.

- The situation in North Korea is too similar to that of South Vietnam······

North Korea is the rebel remnant Wei Man, and South Vietnam is the remnant of the former dynasty Zhao Tuo;

North Korea is cold and mountainous, South Vietnam is hot and humid, and there are many forests;

Korea and the Central Plains are separated by the muddy water, and South Vietnam and the Central Plains are separated by the five mountains;

The most important thing is that as far as the Han family is concerned, North Korea, like South Vietnam, belongs to the situation where the strength makes the small shoot unable to die, and the strength makes the big one unable to make a mistake, and it may accidentally shoot off, but it can not shoot to death, and it is extremely uncomfortable.

— like a fly, or a mosquito.

Therefore, in the past, the Han dynasty always adhered to the program of 'not fighting for the time being, and trying to maintain the harmony on the surface' for South Vietnam, in order to gain precious development time.

But a battle to destroy the Wei clan in Korea, which was like a child playing at home, and like an armed parade, suddenly gave birth to an illusion among these high-ranking and powerful people.

- Will South Vietnam, like North Korea, break when you touch it, or even if you don't have to touch it, as long as you blow lightly, it will disappear?

Combined with the similarities between South Vietnam and North Korea, the more I think about it, the more people think: Well, this should be the case!

Going up to the sky, that is, there are a few 'sensible' people who compare South Vietnam to a high-profile version of Wei Man;

But in the battle deduction in these people's minds, Zhao Tuo, who was 'slightly better' than Wei Man, was only limited to the extent that he 'might fight in the capital, instead of running directly'.

As an 'insider' who is really in charge of the house and watches the money and food go out like water, Liu Ying clearly knows that the problem of South Vietnam is indeed somewhat similar to that of North Korea, but it is by no means to the extent of 'another armed march of higher intensity' as these people think.

To put it simply: In a battle to annihilate Weiman Korea, Liu Ying's money bag flowed out more than 200,000 yuan;

As for South Vietnam, according to Liu Ying's conservative estimate, if they want to replicate the 'all-army attack' model of destroying Wei Manchu Korea, and quickly cut through the chaos through stud, the cost of the war will probably be between 80 and 1.2 million yuan.

This is also the reason why Liu Ying will take the initiative to speak and remind everyone to 'don't think far away, think about what to do with North Korea first'.

-- The cost of war in the feudal era was never simply 'how much money was spent', but how much social resources were spent and how it affected the relationship between supply and demand of resources.

The reason couldn't be more straightforward: food is a thing, it doesn't mean that if you have money, you can find the grandfather of the system to exchange it for an unlimited amount.

When the whole world's grain is withdrawn by the army in a short period of time, a visible part of the army's food will be followed, then it will inevitably be followed by rising prices and tight market supply.

Therefore, even Liu Ying himself really wants to swing his pen very much, smash most of the Shaofu out, catch Zhao Tuo's old turtle back, and put it in a cage to be raised as a baboon, Liu Ying must also calm down.

- For the current Han family, Zhao Tuo and South Vietnam are not problems that need to be solved urgently.

On the contrary: the digestion of North Korea, the 'land of new service', is the great difficulty in front of the Han monarchs and ministers at this moment······
