Chapter 91 Population
(Thanks to Haiyang Tianming, ~Titan~ and the head of the old head of the Taibai Sword Sect for rewarding...... It stands to reason that I should be more grateful, but I don't have any manuscripts for the time being, so I can only owe it first...... )
Where can Aputuo still tolerate this messenger's nonsense, and shouted: "Hurry up and lead the way, or I will eat you first!"
This messenger cried bitterly in his stomach, and knew that although this Aputuo was powerful, if he went to Jiaozhi alone, he would die!
It's just a pity that this guy doesn't have enough heads. At the moment, I am even more blinded by greed, but it is useless to say anything!
At this time, Liu Shengzhi also had some slight exclamation: "There are so many people in Jiaozhou...... No wonder ......"
No wonder it wasn't able to be completely digested by Middle-earth in the end...... It was completely lost during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms......
Of course, Liu Shengzhi would not say this last sentence in front of Du Ai.
"Yes, Zhenjun!" Although I don't know why Liu Shengzhi didn't let people call him the Son of Heaven. But Du Ai is still as good as a stream.
He said: "When Emperor Wu Yuanding opened Jiaozhi County in the sixth year, there were 92,440 households, 746,237 mouths, and 10 counties.
It has been reproduced so far, although there have been several wars. However, there has not been a population decline as much as that of Middle-earth, and by now, the population of Cochin County has exceeded 2 million. There are more than 270,000 households recorded by the government alone......"
Liu Shengzhi nodded, naturally understanding what was going on. According to the ratio of five members of one household in ancient times, 270,000 households is 1.35 million people.
Du Ai said that there are more than 2 million, and naturally there are indigenous tribes that are difficult to count between the mountains and forests, plus some wealthy families with hidden populations.
Therefore. To say that there are more than two million people is definitely not an exaggeration. It's not good that it's conservative!
Liu Shengzhi's eyes were almost red, no wonder Lin Yi was obsessed with Jiaozhou. Even before Lu Xunna escaped overseas, he still wanted to come to Jiaozhou to loot a handful of people.
It's really surprising that the population of Jiaozhou is too much!
Although you know, two million people are nothing in modern time and space?
But you must know that the Han Dynasty swept the north and counted all the Hu and Han populations in the entire north, and there were only more than 10 million people in the calculation...... And the simple Han population does not even have 10 million......
Although Jiangzuo has been in peace for so many years, the population is thriving. But after Sun En's ransacking, Liu Shengzhi originally expected that it would not exceed five million.
But. I didn't think of it. If nothing else, Cochin County alone has a population of 2 million, although most of them are native. But population, it's population, it's wealth!
In addition, when Nanhai County was built in the sixth year of Emperor Wu's Yuan Ding, it also had a population of 90,000. And for so many years, there has been no major upheaval. The population has also exceeded half a million.
In Yulin County, it was 70,000 in the past, and now there are 300,000 or 400,000.
Cangwu County was 170,000 back then, and now there are nearly 1 million......
Ri Nanjiu is really hard to say, he has just been ransacked by Lin Yi.
But it's just a casual one. It's really scary, the population of Jiaozhou alone is probably more than five million!
It would seem, the population of the entire Jiangzuo. economic potential, all kinds of aspects in such an era. has completely surpassed Jiang You.
It is no wonder that in another time and space trajectory, the early period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties. In the Liu Song era, almost all of them were fighting against the north!
Even Liu Yu was still preparing for a new round of the Northern Expedition before his death, until Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty, Liu Yilong, a fool who governed the country in a way and had no way to use troops, Yuanjia Northern Expedition, returned in a fiasco.
It is inevitable that Liu Shengzhi will complain here, does he use "Song" as the name of the country, he is okay with governing the country, but he will not use soldiers to fight?
It can even be said that even after the unification of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the power of the Southern Dynasties has never been under the north.
Until Xiao Yan, the monk emperor, died by himself, and invited Hou Jing, the general of the universe, back, after causing trouble in Jiangzuo, after large-scale civil strife. In the end, the strength of the Northern Dynasty began to surpass that of the Southern Dynasty, and finally in the Sui Dynasty, the world was unified!
And in this period of time, even if Jiang Zuo's strength has not been completely integrated, it is far above the north.
It is no wonder that in another time and space trajectory, as soon as a military strongman like Liu Yu emerges, he will immediately be able to swing the Northern Expedition and beat the Hu people like dogs......
Behind this, there is naturally the support of the strength of population and financial resources, not without cause!
But in any case, having such a large population at once has solved one of his biggest headaches for Liu Shengzhi.
If you want Xia Jun to destroy the people, it is not possible to divide and colonize without the support of a huge population base...... The core area of Middle-earth is still not filled......
However, now that there is such a large population, it can be regarded as a big problem for Liu Shengzhi.
In this way, Jiangzuo's population is far beyond Liu Shengzhi's estimates, and it is absolutely not difficult to have a population of more than 10 million.
If you give Liu Shengzhi a surprise, it is not impossible to reach 20 million.
"Zhenjun, although there is such a large population. However, there are not many soldiers and horses in the counties of Jiaozhou. Now there is a lot of turmoil in various places, if there is a war and a disaster, under the chaos of war, I am afraid that the people will not survive one out of ten!"
Du Ai couldn't help but remind Liu Shengzhi.
Although Jiaozhou has a large population, it is about to war. This kind of ancient war is quite striking for the decline in population.
When the time comes, after the war, half of them will survive, which is something worth laughing at.
The peak of the population of the Eastern Han Dynasty is recorded in the third year of Emperor Huan's eternal life, with a household of 1,677,960 and a mouth of 56,486,856......
It was already the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty of the Second Emperor Hengling, plus the hidden population of the powerful clans and the fugitive population, all kinds of calculations, more than 100 million is not unusual.
And at that time, basically Jiangzuo had not yet been developed......
Let's look at how much of Jiangyou's population is left after a hundred or two hundred years of war...... This amount of population decline is staggering.
In another time and space, the population of the Northern Wei Dynasty was only a little more than 10 million more than ten years after its unification......
This is Du Ai reminding Liu Shengzhi around the corner, although he doesn't know what Liu Shengzhi's idea is, he has to clean up the Immortal Dao at this time.
But if there is a real war, the situation will be very difficult to control!
Liu Shengzhi laughed and said, "Du Taishou can rest assured, the army of the Han family will arrive soon...... It won't be more than ten days!"
When Du Ai heard that the Han army would be able to arrive in ten days at most, he immediately felt relieved.
Although he didn't know why the Han army had such a fast speed. But you don't joke, although the Liu Shengzhi in front of him is not called the Son of Heaven, he will definitely not talk nonsense casually......
As long as it takes ten days, he Du Ai will be able to stabilize the situation no matter what. (To be continued.) )
