226. Translation and translation, what is a surprise!
Twenty years ago, when it was just announced to be separated from the Great Zhou, Beibing Town was still only a small city, although the entire northwest and the whole of the northwest were nominally under the jurisdiction of Beibing Town, but in fact it was not recognized by everyone.
Until the city defense war with the Great Zhou that shocked the world, Li Yueming led the Xingyue Army to confront the entire Great Zhou with the strength of the two places in the northwest, and finally defeated the invincible Great Zhou army in embarrassment and fled, all the way back to the front line of Fulong Pass, and did not dare to rise again.
Only then did the Xingyue Army officially become famous among the countries of the world. At the same time, he also subdued the Great Zhou and Great Qin, which were eyeing the surrounding people, and thus harvested more than 20 years of precious peace in this troubled era.
After Li Yueming himself, as well as dozens of reincarnated people from the Xingyue Army and countless people of insight up and down, under the hard work of decades of hard work, Beibing Town has undergone earth-shaking changes compared to the past.
After the first round of reforms, now the Star Moon Army has finally completely digested the oil and water brought by the last war.
The land controlled by Beibing Town borders Yuwang's territory to the east, connects with the remnants of the 100,000 mountains at the end of the land to the west, encompasses the marginal tidal towns such as Dingyuan City to the north, and extends to the south outside the Fulong and Fuhu Pass.
The actual territory spans nearly 10,000 miles from east to west and thousands of miles from north to south. Although seventy or eighty percent of it is wasteland unsuitable for human habitation and cultivation, the extent of this territory alone is staggering enough.
At the same time, because Li Yueming attaches great importance to production, he not only sent capable personnel to study high-yield crops, but also spared no effort to vigorously promote them after the research was completed.
Therefore, the grain production of North Glacier Town has also been growing explosively in recent years. According to Tian Liang's preliminary statistics, from the completion of the first ten-year plan to the completion of the first ten-year plan, the grain output of Beibing Town and its 23 first-tier towns and 32 second-tier towns has increased by five times!
!! Because this increase is too terrible, in order not to be noticed by other countries, Beibing Town took the initiative to hide this data, and also collected all the excess grain circulating in the market through various channels.
I am afraid that the details of the grain production in Beibing Town will be spread to the outside. As a result, it has been unjustifiably coveted by other countries.
At present, the total population of Beibing Town and the towns under its actual rule has exceeded 20 million, and if you add some innumerable people scattered in other small towns and villages, the total population may have exceeded 30 million.
This population may not be much compared to when there were no wars in the Northlands. After all, when the Qin army had not yet opened up the 100,000 mountain roads, there were nearly 20 million people in the north alone.
However, what the Xingyue Army inherited was the land that had been destroyed by the Qin Army! After the first ten years of war, the people in the northwest were disturbed by the Qin army with elite cavalry at every turn, resulting in no way to sow seeds even though they had grain in their hands, and there was no harvest every year.
As a result, the number of people in the Northland alone has plummeted by about a third. In addition, after the Qin army broke through the twelve cities in the Northland, it was another burning, killing and plundering, which caused the population of the Northland to fall even more precipitously.
By the time the Xingyue Army took over, the number of registered people in the two places in the northwest was less than 8 million, and even if there were still many refugees who had not been counted, it would be 15 million at the top.
In other words, the population of North Glacier has grown by more than 15 million in just two decades. Every household has at least one child.
The reason why we were able to restore so many people in just 20 years has a relationship with the high-yield grain promoted by Li Yueming.
After all, it is easy to say that it is easy to let people have children, but it is indeed difficult to say that it is difficult. The people want to give birth, but after giving birth to a child, they have to stutter, right?
Population growth can only be so rapid if their lowest needs are met. This is also the main reason why Li Yueming put the increase in grain production and the restoration of population in the first 10-year plan and made great efforts to implement it.
Without food, the population cannot be supported. Without a population, it is impossible to support the army. Without an army, it is difficult for one person to stand up to a country.
Naturally, there is no way to complete the difficult hidden mission. Now, after the completion of the first 10-year plan, the people who are gradually getting richer in their pockets have gradually developed trust in Beibing Town and Li Yueming, and the second five-year plan will be much easier than the first plan.
Li Yueming only needs to promulgate the policies jointly formulated by the high-level of the Xingyue Army, and he doesn't need to do any special publicity, and the people of the entire northwest and northwest will take the initiative to start studying it.
Their enthusiasm was so hot that it even exceeded Li Yueming's own expectations, and the policies of conscription and strengthening the people in the second ten-year plan were generally supported by the people.
As for the policy of strengthening the people, the people basically have no special concept. After all, most of them can't read a single word, and if they can know the documents announced by Li Yueming, they have to rely on the readers to read them to them.
In this case, it is a bit too difficult to expect them to know what knowledge is power.
But they don't understand the meaning of the policy of strengthening the people, but they understand the meaning of strengthening the army! In the past countless years, the imperial court and the Zhenbei army would go to the Guanwai to recruit soldiers, and if they could not recruit soldiers, they would even be forcibly conscripted.
Most of the time, the people are quite complaining about this, after all, the army recruits every year and recruits young men from the family, who are strong laborers, and often take care of the whole family.
Not only is his life at risk, but he doesn't get much paid. Therefore, if it were not for the disaster year when they could not even eat enough, the people would be extremely reluctant to conscript.
But now, when I heard that the Xingyue Army was going to be recruited. But the people of the entire northwest and the two places are all flocking to it.
As soon as the information was announced, the young and middle-aged laborers who lined up at the gate of the Xingyue Army even surrounded the entire Xingyue Army headquarters in Beibing Town.
In order to preempt a position for a physical examination, there were even people who fought hard. Looking at such a lively scene outside the barracks, Rao is Ding Yi, Tian Liang and others were well-informed, and they all felt a little staggered.
Under normal circumstances, it is not easy to recruit troops. Sometimes they even have to go from house to house.
For example, as soon as the news came out, hundreds of people rushed to line up to send their families to join the army, but it was rare.
And that's why it is. Tian Liang, Ding Yi and others also made a brief summary. The important reason why the Xingyue Army can be so popular in the northwest is that the policy of the Xingyue Army is too close to the people.
The slogan of conscription is not to defend the country, but to protect the people. Although the salary for the soldiers to join the army is not much, but they will never be less than a penny, if they die because of the war, even if the poor pants of the Xingyue Army are gone, they will try their best to pay out pensions to the soldiers who died in battle.
And in the future, the Xingyue Army will also help the families of the fallen soldiers to tide over the difficulties from time to time. In addition to completing daily drills, the vast majority of the rest of the time of the Xingyue Army is spent helping people build houses, reclaim farmland, and star canals.
Such a situation is simply not possible in other countries. The reason for this is undeniably partly because Li Yueming, the main commander, has super political literacy, but the largest part is not on Li Yueming, but because of the existence of their group of reincarnateds.
The ultimate goal of the reincarnated is the same as Li Yueming's, which is to do everything possible to build the Star and Moon Army better and achieve the goal of unifying the world.
For this reason, the reincarnated ones don't care about other powers or fame and fortune at all. I never even thought about what happened after my death.
Every policy that Li Yueming promulgated after discussing with them was aimed at the majority of the people, and as for the interests of the reincarnated ones themselves, they were completely ignored at this time, and they were not considered at all.
Several items are stacked on top of each other. The internal politics of the Xingyue Army are clear and prosperous. After all, the high-level people don't dare to take it, and even if the people below want to take it, they have to weigh it carefully, of course, there are those who are bold, but most of them died very miserably.
The unity of the whole body greatly ensured that the decrees of the Star and Moon Army could be consistent. …… No matter what the world is, the emotions of the people are always very simple.
Who is good to them and who is bad to them. It's never about how to say it, it's about how to do it. Deception may be able to prevail for a while, but after all, no one is always a fool, and in the end, only sincerity can obtain sincerity.
The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes. The establishment of the Xingyue Army was directly full after less than a week, and the people who were still unsatisfied even offered to let the Xingyue Army continue to expand the number of troops, after all, only when the number of troops was large, the Xingyue Army could have the strength to ensure that they would not be bullied by Da Zhou or Da Qin.
Therefore, they wish that the Star Moon Army would collect more talents at this time. A group of high-ranking members of the Star Moon Army couldn't laugh or cry when they heard this.
However, Li Yueming has no plans to expand the Xingyue Army in a short period of time, after all, some things can be fast, and they can be achieved quickly, but some things must not be fast.
The army is like this, too many conscripts at one time may cause the combat effectiveness of the entire Star Moon Army to drop significantly, and it may not be able to recover for several years.
The Xingyue Army was able to grow in the gap between Great Zhou and Great Qin not because of the huge number of troops, but because of the spirit of being well-trained and fearless of death.
This spirit was cultivated by Li Yueming after he wasted his strength. The number of recruits should not be too large to dissipate this hard-won will.
Therefore, in the first year of conscription, no matter what others think, Li Yueming only recruited less than 50,000 soldiers according to the original plan.
In fact, by this time, the entire northwest and the two places had basically recovered their vitality, had recovered from the burning of the war, and began to become more and more prosperous.
This is already a fairy day for the people who have lived in the bitter cold land of the northwest for generations, and they are already very satisfied with everything in front of them.
However, I didn't think that this was only the beginning of Li Yueming's reform, and the real highlight was still to come. After the conscription is completed.
The Xingyue Army began to build the school palace in the large cities of Beibinghe, Zhenbei City, and Zhenxi City non-stop, from the enlightenment class to the world governance class, and began to publicize the significance of the construction of the school palace to the people in the northwest and the benefits of reading and writing.
If Li Yueming had carried out such a reform a few years ago, it is estimated that there would have been no noise in the entire northwest and northwest.
After all, they haven't eaten enough, who has the time to do something that they don't have? Even if he has time, isn't he fragrant with a few acres of land?
But now, because the grain production is still abundant, some people with better family conditions have been liberated from the yellow earth, and some people have tried to try after the construction of the school palace.
After all, not only does it cost money to listen to classes in the school, but it also has a place to shelter from the wind and rain, who can refuse the temptation of white prostitution?
As for the other governing class, there are quite a few people who are interested. After all, in the propaganda, no matter who enters, as long as they enter this class, if the follow-up grades do not collapse, they will have the opportunity to become an official of the Xingyue Army and Beibing Town.
It's still very attractive to the public. The first two classes recruited quite a few people. As for the final specialty class, it is for adults.
In order to encourage more people to study, the town of North Glacier has implemented an examination system. Whether it is a craftsman or a common man, if he wants to get a higher salary and more tax deductions, the easiest and fastest way is to go to the academy for special training.
According to the individual's strengths and hobbies, the Academy will select teachers to lead the apprentices to learn. After the construction of the three types of school palaces was completed, and the students were recruited to start their studies.
The first few years didn't attract much attention. It wasn't until the first batch of students graduated from the academy that the entire northwest and the two places suddenly found that the times had suddenly changed.
In order to guarantee immediate results, let everyone know the benefits of the establishment of the school palace. Therefore, the first batch of teachers in the Academy Palace are all beings who strive for excellence, and they are basically directly responsible for the reincarnations.
For example, Ding Yi taught soldiers to fight, Tian Liang and Huang Lier taught farmers how to farm more scientifically, and Wang Biao and others taught craftsmen how to improve their skills.
Who are these reincarnated? Those are all ruthless people who have traversed dozens or hundreds of reincarnation worlds. Not to mention omniscient, but the vast majority of skills are quite proficient.
Under their teaching, the people who listened to the lectures in the school palace were naturally lying in the school, and their skills were rising.
A few years of learning down. After the initial shock, all the students who entered the school felt as if a new door had been opened in the world that they had never touched before.
It turns out that the crops in the cultivated fields also have so many special habits, and the original steel smelting also has so many skills and regularities, and it turns out that marching and fighting have to pay attention to so many details...... Until then, these were things that only a few people were able to grasp.
Even a book wouldn't be as clear as the reincarnation's story. But after the school was launched, this door was opened to all the people in the entire North Glacier Town.
After finishing their studies, the apprentices ignored the disturbances of the outside world, and even ignored the inquiries of their families, and in the eyes of countless people in the outside world who were puzzled and puzzled, they began the road of creating miracles.
The same field, in the hands of a farmer who has learned to cultivate in the school, can yield 500 catties per mu. In the hands of farmers who have not learned to farm, they can only produce 400 catties per mu.
The same piece of iron can be refined into a peerless divine weapon that blows and breaks hair in the hands of a blacksmith who has learned to smelt in the school, but in the hands of a blacksmith who has not learned smelting, he can only chop wood and cut trees.
For the same soldier, a soldier who has learned to march and fight will always be more responsive to orders than a soldier who has not learned.
Such a bizarre phenomenon caused a sensation. Just like when the army was first recruited, the people around several large towns surrounded the school set up by Li Yueming overnight, and countless people wanted to see what could create such a magical picture.
The school was overcrowded both inside and outside the school because of this. Heads hungry for knowledge scrambled to squeeze in.
According to incomplete statistics, when Li Yueming launched the second ten-year plan, the people in the entire northwest and northwest did not know a single word out of ten.
By the end of the Second Ten-Year Plan, with the exception of the elderly who were not quick to think, nine out of ten people in the two northwestern regions had already received the education of the enlightenment class and were basically able to recognize the vast majority of the written language.
Such progress is cross-generational. Many reincarnated people cooperated with Li Yueming to create this unprecedented miracle.
…… After the end of the second ten-year plan. Li Yueming, who had been practicing in the big tent of the Chinese army, woke up briefly.
After a brief look at the development of Beibing Town in recent years, a smile appeared after a while, and said to Li Ruxing, who was holding Erlang's legs next to him: "Second sister, we will soon be able to surprise everyone!" Li Ruxing retracted his long and straight thighs when he heard this, yawned boredly, and said: "You think too much, there may be people who pay attention to Beibing Town on weekdays, but at this time, the six countries are fighting everywhere, and even Da Zhou is at war with Daqi, so he has no time to take care of himself, how can he still be in the mood to listen to the gossip of Beibing Town?" In this regard, Li Yueming smiled, and a few snow-white teeth looked very harmless to humans and animals: "Because of this, they should be even more surprised!" This time, Li Ruxing did not have Li Yueming's demolition, but rarely echoed: "This is right, after all, who would have thought that the Xingyue Army, which was still pressed and kneaded on the ground by Da Zhou twenty years ago, would have the power to sweep the world so soon?" [In other words, the best app for reading aloud and listening to books, change the source app, .huanyuanapp to install the latest version.
The words fell, and the two were silent for a moment at the same time, and after a long time, they looked at each other and smiled. Obviously, both Li Ruxing and Li Yueming are very satisfied with the current reforms in the northwest and the northwest, and both believe that on the road to reunification that has already begun, the Xingyue Army, which was originally backward in strength, has unknowingly walked ahead of the other countries.
It depends on when the other countries that have already played out their dog's brains will be able to find out about this, and maybe the Star and Moon Army will be able to give them a big surprise when the time comes.
