Chapter 637

Shijie Zhao, Li Chenghan, the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Zhang Liangguo, Tuoba Dai, Murong Xianbei, are these countries weak? Which is not a mercenary at least more than 100000, but they were successively attacked and destroyed by the Han state. It can only be said that they are not weak, but the Han state is too strong.

As a result, as long as the countries of Koguryo, Baiji, Silla, Jiala and the Japanese islands are at the national level, there is no weaker than a single family.

Once the four gate valves south of the Yangtze River asked for money and people. Whose strength is not several times stronger than Sang's?

Sang Yu can recruit so many families because he has the identity of one of the three princes of the Han state, and then his family has relatively good strength after the war in the Central Plains. If sang Yu is not one of the three masters of the Central Committee, in fact, let alone thinking about expanding the family strength, he should be terrified all day.

After the establishment of the Han state, not too many families were destroyed. Those who worked for the Jie nationality in the Central Plains did not wake up in time. They were basically cleaned up, and those who responded slowly were also greatly weakened. The south of the Yangtze River has been hit hardest. The once four major gate valves are no longer beautiful, and countless people have lost their homes.

Liu Yan's recovery of those families whose land exceeds the bottom line is not for people, but for all families. Those who can own a large area of land have an identity in the Han state, that is, aristocracy.

Take the present-day 20th class barons of the Han state as an example. The higher the title, the more legal land under the name. No matter how much land they owned before, none of the non nobles in the Han country after the "rectification" owned more than 3000 mu of land in the "basic plate". The nobles who legally owned the most land are now ran min, but they all earned it by relying on military achievements on the battlefield.

It doesn't matter how much land the sangs owned before. They took the initiative to reduce it as early as during the "rectification movement", because Sangyu was also a vassal and received legal land rewards. If the family is taken as a unit, now the number of land is the largest among all families.

Excluding the development land outside the "basic land", the Sangshi family holds 7000 mu of land. 7000 mu of land looks like a lot, but before the establishment of the Han state, which aristocratic family did not hold tens of thousands of mu of land, there is a big gap.

Owning land does not mean that the strength will be strong, but how many tenants need to be mastered. In the people-oriented era, someone can form an armed force. Taking the episode as the core, coupled with tenants with relatively high loyalty and dependence, no matter how many passers-by are temporarily coerced, it is also a mob.

Sang sent 3000 troops to the Indo China Peninsula to participate in the development, and 6000 are ready to participate in the development of the northeast. Considering the force that the nest must leave, the armed forces of the whole family are about 15000, but these can not be put in the open.

Are there many private armed forces in 15000? In the territory ruled by the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there are many aristocratic families that can organize 15000 troops. Even the weakest Huan gate valve among the four gate valves can arm an army of about 50000 people, and the most powerful Wang family can pull out more than 100000 people.

Of course, it's one thing how many troops each family can pull out, and the combat effectiveness can't be guaranteed.

No one knows when Liu Yan began to restrict private armed forces, but there are no relevant restrictions. Now, those aristocratic families with tens of thousands say they will be destroyed. It can be seen that family armed forces and state armed forces cannot be at the same height.

When he returned to the residence, sang Yu shut himself in his study and kept thinking and calculating. According to the statistics, Sang's own armed forces, together with some allies who would follow the way to the black, should be able to gather up an armed force of 50000 or 60000 people.

[so what?] sang Yu thought that the more he thought, the more sweat he would sweat, and the more shaking he would be: [the king expelled the tartar prisoners and restored China, which won the hearts of the people, and his control over the military is tight. Also... The mysterious guard is endless...]

Before, anyone who could change the dynasty created space for development and growth because of the general trend, and then the original rulers made heaven and earth angry, otherwise there was no chance to climb to the top.

Sang Yu didn't want to accumulate strength to usurp the throne, but he knew one thing very well. Cao Cao just wanted to help the Han Dynasty at the beginning. After the strength accumulated to a certain extent, even if he didn't want to, he would be pushed by his followers to do it.

Is the Han dynasty ruled by Liu Yan the Eastern Han Dynasty? No one can tell.

[why did the king not restrict private armed forces?] sang Yu didn't wipe the sweat on his face, but felt that he was weak for a while: [is it because he doesn't care at all, or because he needs families to explore abroad?]

Seriously, Liu Yan really didn't restrict who can't engage in private armed affairs. He just gave him the treatment of how many episodes and personal soldiers he legally owned according to the system of the 20th Lord. The problem is that the quantity that has been legally owned is certainly illegal!

[is it a game?] sang Yu collapsed directly and lay down: [the king wants to see how many private armed forces can be organized by each family?]

It is not the ancient pre-Qin period, the school can not have a huge armed force, and the nobles can legally have a huge private force. Since the establishment of the Han Empire, anyone who dares to train troops privately will be wiped out, without exception.

"No!" Sang Yu wanted to sit up. He did it many times before he succeeded. He shouted to the outside, "come on!"

Soon someone outside made a noise and was told to call the family elders for a meeting.

The sangs family is not the only one holding the clan elders' meeting today. It is all the people who went to the brothel to participate in the discussion just now. Today, they were all startled by themselves and began to hesitate to move so much to expand their family.

That night, Liu Yan got the record of what the ministers talked about, read it and threw it aside.

The starting point of Restricting Private armed forces is to prevent anyone from challenging imperial power, killing one and killing one. It is a bloody deterrent.

Of course, Liu Yan also thought about whether to limit it. He thought carefully and decided to deal with it vaguely. He is not a person who wants to shut the door after dominating the world. What he wants is to open up endlessly. The strength of the state is not enough. It is also an item to lure the people to do it by themselves. Even it is more important for the people to develop their own development.

As long as he didn't fool around in China, Liu Yan really didn't consider destroying some families. He also hoped that those families could independently explore the territory of ah San. He also hoped that all families could go outside to open branches and leaves. Therefore, some things that should be ignored were ignored.

Lying with the report on what the ministers said was the official document sent back by Ji Chang from Yandi.

Ji Chang didn't know what he thought, or who reminded him. He specially wrote an explanation about why he let 20000 Tuoba Xianbei go.

Liu Yan didn't care about the fact that 20000 people of Tuoba Xianbei ran away. He was very clear that it was time to enhance the strength of Tuoba Gu. Otherwise, Murong Xianbei would easily destroy Tuoba Xianbei, which was not in line with the interests of the Han state.

As for Murong Xianbei's failure to attack Tuoba Xianbei, it was the two Xianbei who joined forces to attack Rouran or donggaoche. Anyway, how things developed was beneficial to the Han country.

"Should this be the structure?" Liu Yan has been writing and painting with a charcoal pen for a long time, trying to recall the structure of the waterwheel: "it should be like this."

It has been confirmed that there is a local drought in Liangzhou, and it is only a matter of time before it spreads to Guanzhong. Then it should be the hinterland of the Central Plains, which can't tolerate Liu Yan's carelessness. In previous years, he had ordered to sort out the irrigation system, but this alone was not enough. He had to do more, and the waterwheel was one of them.

In fact, the structure of the waterwheel is not complex, and it will not be too difficult to build. Its function is to transport more water sources to the desired place with the least labor force.

"Send this drawing to the workshop." Liu Yan pointed to the drawings on the table and ordered Cui Zong: "order the workshop to build one first and carry out field tests."

Cui Zong stood and looked for a long time. He was probably able to guess what the paintings were. Gong Jing saluted and went out with the drawings. Soon he became a trot.

Liu Yan wants to make a waterwheel in a day and a half, or he has enough leisure and energy to do it in the near future. He not only wants to make waterwheel, but also wants to do some convenient farming tools, but he doesn't have much "goods" in his mind.

[what kind of Plowshare is the most labor-saving?] Liu Yan is a little confused. He lives in modern times and has access to a lot of information. The problem is that electronic products are the mainstream and what agricultural products are like. He really doesn't pay much attention: [take your time... Take your time. Now all metal plowshares are not popular. Try all metal plowshares first.]

What's funny is that Liu Yan didn't think of what kind of Plowshare is the most convenient to use, but he was deeply impressed by such a thing as the thresher. It can even be said that he can recall what structure it should be. How to draw it has to be repeated, and whether it has the corresponding effect has to be tested repeatedly.

What is a typical modern person like? It's the kind of person who sees a lot of things and knows a lot of information. Unless he is very interested, he won't really study it and become a halfling who knows a little about everything but doesn't have much practical ability. It is no exaggeration to say that Liu Yan is a half hearted person who knows something.

After the settlement of Murong Yan state, the Han state had no countries that urgently needed to be eliminated. Liu Yan focused on the military in the early stage, and soon recovered the old land of the Han family. However, the situation of domestic people's livelihood is really bad.

Whether a country's military is strong or not is related to all aspects. If Liu Yan had not had golden fingers, there would be not only systematic forces that can "summon" repeatedly, but also buildings that can produce military equipment. It is really impossible to arm too many troops.

Even if Liu Yan has golden fingers, he has not encountered difficulties. There have been several food shortages, and he still relies on fund-raising and robbery on the Indochina Peninsula to scrape up food.

Of course, Liu Yan knows that robbery can not rob a stable powerful country. Robbery can only maintain a temporary prosperity. The real strength of the country depends on the strong domestic production capacity.

In order to make the fastest and most effective recovery of productivity and the national output really can't support it, Liu Yan has made a plan. The number of the forbidden guards in the future must be kept to the minimum. It's time to get more farmers to cultivate.

The efficiency of systematic farmers in agricultural production is much higher than that of normal people, which can effectively make up for the vacancy of grain output, but it can only be supported first, not the root of solving the shortage of grain output, but also the restoration of normalization of national internal affairs.

There will be a severe drought in the Central Plains in the next few years, which will be a heavy blow to the restoration of people's livelihood. Liu Yan doesn't know how long the drought will last, and he doesn't even have enough judgment on the ensuing locust disaster. What he can do is to try his best to prevent it.

Seeing that the Central Plains will suffer disasters, the state will become dependent on the south of the Yangtze River, which is why Yangzhou's population migrates outward and does not move to the north of the Yangtze River. We all know that we are going to suffer a disaster. How stupid should we be to move people from the south of the Yangtze River to all parts of the Central Plains?

The next day, Liu Yanzhao gathered the ministers to discuss again about the drought in the Central Plains. He found a strange situation. The ministers looked like they had not slept all night. They all wore a big black eye, and occasionally showed fear when they looked at themselves.

"Talk, talk." Liu Yan didn't ask those people what was going on. He directly mentioned: "how much food can the South store in two years to support the north?"

Cai you and Tian Shuo looked at each other. Their responsibilities are interrelated. One is in charge of the output of mountains and rivers, and the other is in charge of farming. Liu Yan asked what is within their responsibilities.

After the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was destroyed in the south, Huanwen was killed for a while. Although it was aimed at those aristocratic families and big families, it should be said that no influence was false.

After the Han Dynasty brought the south of the Yangtze River into its rule, the output of the South decreased by 30% in two years compared with that under the rule of the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It's hard to say what will happen this year.

Tian Shuo did not prepare in advance. He calculated in situ for a while, and then replied tremblingly: "should there be 1.7 million stones for the north?"

Cai you also gave a similar number. He later said a method: "each family went into the wilderness and collected a large amount of grain and fodder. There was also a partial resumption of production for the Central Plains."

The Indo China Peninsula can basically achieve three crops a year. First, whether the food is delicious or not, the output is really good. It depends on whether the families are willing to sell it.

Liu Yan looked at Yu Yi, who was in a trance.

Yu Yi or Cai you pulled his clothes to react, because just now he was distracted and didn't know what Liu Yan was doing. For a moment, he was really flustered.

Cai you moved his standing position and whispered, "how much food can the colonies provide for China?"

"Report to the king, you can supply thousands of stones." Yu Yi found that he didn't finish his words. Everyone looked over and said slightly guilty, "there should be 14 million stones regardless of the cost?"

Liu Yan was shocked. He knew that the food production in Indochina Peninsula was rich, but he really didn't expect that all families could come up with so much. Yu Yi seemed to say that it was provided free of charge. He couldn't help thinking about whether the food production in Indochina Peninsula was beyond his expectation. I really didn't think that the ministers scared themselves and were almost scared to death by themselves.
