Chapter 254: Soldiers

, fight for Wei

After a peaceful banquet, Yang Zheng, Lu Zhi, and Du Yu got together.

Yang Zheng said his idea of reducing taxes and dividing fields to attract the people of Yongliang to Xiping.

The cultivated fields of the land of the river and the pastures of the West Sea should be more than enough to feed millions of people.

The total population under Yang Zheng's rule was only about 160,000.

After thinking about it, Lu Zhi said: "Hehuang's fields are not a problem, the problem is that if the tax is reduced, the military government is afraid that it will not be supported, and the general will expand the army to 50,000, and Xiping has just been pacified for less than two years, and the foundation is not solid." ”

160,000 people support 50,000 troops, and the pressure is very great.

The equipment, training, and food of the soldiers are all money.

Moreover, Yang Zheng also plans to provide 1,500 armor horses, this thing is a gold-swallowing beast.

The war horses are all good horses in a hundred, and the soldiers are also strong people, people eat meat, horse materials, and the equipment used are all high-quality products.

At present, there are only about 700 cold-forged armored cavalry in the army, less than half.

Lu Zhi's words were like a basin of cold water poured on Yang Zheng's head.

Ideas can be imaginative, but to do it, you have to be down-to-earth.

"The battle lasted for a month and a half, with 25,000 regular troops, 23,000 horses, 60,000 slaves, 17,000 men and women who escorted grain and grass, 2,000 livestock, and a total of 532,700 stone of grain." Lu Zhi manages the rear and knows a lot about the various consumptions.

"So much?" Yang Zheng was surprised.

This consumed almost half of last year's harvest.

It's really not a good family, I don't know how expensive firewood and rice are.

Du pre-said: "I read military books in the early years, and I have a record of Juyan Hanjian, and the soldiers have three stones and three buckets of rations a month. ”

Lu Zhi smiled: "That's the food of the soldiers, as well as war horses and livestock. ”

The soldiers' food was usually one or two wheat cakes, sprinkled with some salt for a meal, without meat and fat to supplement calories, and consumed a lot of food.

Yang Zheng suddenly realized that it was not a matter of attracting the people of Yongliang now, but that he was about to be unable to open the pot.

Xiping can not support it, firstly, because seventy or eighty thousand slaves sweat like water in the fields, and secondly, they have taken over Feng Qi's channels, and they have made a lot of profits from private salt and war horses.

But many of the slaves were still a year or two away from reaching the five-year period, and they were to be returned.

Grain is a strategic material, and the demand is large, and the imperial courts of the three countries are very close, and it is difficult to get it through trade.

In fact, all the problems are that the west flat bottom is too thin, the expansion is too fast, and the rear can't keep up.

Lu Zhi took a sip of tea, "Oh, you are not a poor man, the old man has a lot more gray hair." ”

Yang Zheng smiled awkwardly: "There is Uncle Lao." ”

"So the policy of tax reduction and field division should be postponed, at least for five years, Xiping does not have this strength." Lu Zhi put down the teacup, closed his eyes, and tapped the wooden table.

That's pretty much what it means to send off a guest.

Yang Zheng's surging ambition just now fell to the bottom in an instant.

A penny is hard to beat a hero.

Qianghu's current obedience is based on being able to eat, and they will be supplied for two days......

In the past, I was worried about no one, but now I am worried about food when there are people.

How difficult it is to do things in the world.

Du Yu was also a little disappointed, "So I won't bother Lu Gong." "Bow your hands and prepare to leave.

Yang Zheng was a little unwilling, this is obviously a broad road.

You solve the problems of the times,

can dominate this era.

In the poor and weak China of later generations, didn't the great man overthrow the three mountains with the power of the people at the bottom?

Yang Zheng's mind was spinning rapidly.

There is so much to learn from history.

The tuntian system was used in the Han Dynasty, so it was given to the Western Regions.

Later......

"Government military system!" Three words popped out of Yang Zheng's mouth.

Lu Zhi and Du were puzzled.

"The integration of soldiers and peasants, dividing the fields into the house, training and fighting in the spare time, farming when busy, no taxes are charged, if there is a war, it will be called, and the soldiers will prepare their own grain, grass and ordnance to assemble!"

There is no shortage of land in Xiping, and the army is raised with land to reduce the burden of protecting the Qiang Mansion to the greatest extent.

The land is there, and it can't be distributed to the people of Yongliang, so it's better to give it to the soldiers.

This is actually a reduced version of the government military system, and it can also be regarded as a strengthened version of the Han and Wei Tuntian systems.

and keep the soldiers in the ridges.

The Tuntian system of the Wei State went astray, and the Tuntian soldiers were miserable, not only sweating, but also bleeding, and all the income from cultivation went to the officials, and they worked for nothing all year round, which was almost the same as that of slaves......

The enthusiasm of the soldiers can be imagined.

And Yang Zheng's government military system gave a lot of benefits to the soldiers and stimulated their enthusiasm.

Of course, there are also huge problems with the government military system.

For example, in the future, the territory will be expanded, and the place where the soldiers will be gathered will be too far away, and once they go back and forth, they will not be able to afford to eat and drink, and they will also delay the agricultural time.

There is no one way to solve all problems.

There are many problems after the government military system, but it is very suitable for the current situation in Xiping, with many soldiers, many land, many enemies, and a weak foundation.

A thing that has gone through the Western Wei, Northern Zhou, Sui, and Tang dynasties and existed for more than 200 years must have its merits.

The system can be improved step by step.

The tuntian system and the government military system have also undergone many improvements.

Emperor Hongwu's guard system is actually a disguised Tuntian system......

The two or three years after the Battle of Poqiang will be Yang Zheng's most valuable strategic development period.

The key is that if you develop, others will also develop.

Others are richer than you, have food, have people, have a family, and have a large number of talents......

If you don't surpass them in the system and overtake in corners, with the current situation of Xiping, it would be good to be able to mix up the valley.

The biggest possibility is that after Sima Shi and Sima Zhao brothers sit down in the country, they will not enter Wu Shu and unify Guanzhong to solve their own worries first.

A single Deng Ai is so struggling, let alone the entire Wei Kingdom!

Yang Zheng didn't dare to guarantee that he would win every time.

As long as it is defeated once, all kinds of contradictions in Xiping will also surface.

After Lu Zhi and Du premeditated, their eyes lit up at the same time, "Wonderful strategy! ”

Lu Zhi paced back and forth, "This strategy can solve Xiping's current predicament, and Xingyun has great talents!" Now that Jincheng County is newly obtained, the government military system can be piloted! ”

The government military system, coupled with the dock fort, is simply a sharp weapon for defense and offense.

was praised by Lu Zhi, Yang Zheng's old face turned red, wasn't this forced?

If Xiping fails, others may surrender and launch a mutiny, and they can continue to be the official of the Sima family.

It is certain that he will be exterminated.

Don't end too badly, Sima and his son can be regarded as professional households exterminating the clan.

And now he is no longer alone, he has a wife, children, and loyal subordinates.

Du pre-said: "Although this strategy is good, the center still needs to have a certain number of troops to quickly respond to the situation!" ”

Yang Zheng nodded and said, "This is natural, there are 12,000 people in the guard battalion. ”

The combination of the government military system and the conscription system is enough to deal with most of the problems of this era.

12,000 elite soldiers, from the Xiping offering.

Lu Zhi and Du looked at Yang Zheng with a hint of awe in their eyes.

Yang Zheng was a little at a loss, "There are still many problems with this policy, which can be standardized and improved one by one according to the current situation of Xiping." ”

Lu Zhi arched his hand and said: "Don't worry, the general will definitely figure it out in detail." ”

Du Zhen said happily: "Since it doesn't cost money and food to raise an army, tax reduction and land division to attract the people of Yongliang can also be carried out at the same time." ”

In the final analysis, development is about population, and a system without population is in vain.

Lu Zhi smiled and nodded.

"There is Lao Lu Gong in the government military system, and the younger generation will subdue a few Qiang tribes in the west, and go back when they go, and then they will figure out this system with Lu Gong." Du Pre's enthusiasm was completely ignited.

The literati all have the energy to study. UU reads books

Du Pre was quite famous, and finally defected to the Sima family in history.

You must know that at that time, after seeing the face and methods of the Sima family, many celebrities were unwilling to be officials and lived in seclusion in the bamboo forest, which is how the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest came.

Lu Zhi suddenly bowed his hand to Yang Zheng and said, "My subordinates recommend a son in the house to the general, and you can go with Yuan Kai." ”

"Oh? Who can be recommended by my uncle? Yang Zheng was a little curious.

"Zhou Zhi, although he was born in a poor family, he is excellent in martial arts, and he has wisdom in battle." Lu Zhi, who has always rarely praised others, actually praised people.

Isn't this the striker who wiped out Wu?

When the wind rises, it will swell.

The battle of breaking the Qiang opened up the situation of Yang Zheng, and the elite people from all over the world naturally came to vote.

After a while, Yijian'er was summoned by his subordinates and bowed in front of Yang Zheng, with a loud voice, "Zhou Zhi to meet General Yang!" ”

Yang Zheng looked up and down, this person is no more than twenty years old, majestic and powerful, and he is also from a poor family, Yang Zheng was very happy, helped him up, untied the refined ring knife around his waist, and gave it to him, "A good knife increases heroics, if you can get my uncle's fancy, you must have extraordinary ability, promote you to be a captain, and listen to it under Du Changshi!" ”

"Subordinates take orders!" Zhou Zhi solemnly took the ring knife.
