Chapter 241

When all the people in Kaifeng were counted and compiled, there were almost 200000 single people, 500000 families with relatives, and it is estimated that there are 200000 households left, that is, 700000 households.

According to 5000 households in a county, Qin Huan planned to set up as many counties as he could in Nanyang Prefecture and Ruzhou until the land was divided.

For the time being, the rest of the people can help dig ditches and repair canals, continue to eat big pot rice and unified management, and continue to divide land after laying more sites.

The garrison in each county will also recruit young men from them.

Qin Huan had made it clear that he didn't have time to delay. Qian bin and a group of scholars begged for nothing, so they had to go down and do it.

The officials of various departments and the heads of counties, counties, towns and townships are completely appointed by Qian bin himself. He can report afterwards. As long as he wants the results, he doesn't want the process.

After leaving all the affairs of government affairs to Qian bin, Qin Huan devoted himself to the construction of the army.

After reorganization, the total number of people in five towns, plus Pro Wei camp, women's camp and four departments, is more than 100000.

The gap between infantry soldiers and firearm soldiers in each town is small, and there are only many logistics battalions, so there is no need to recruit new soldiers.

Qin Huan just set up a recruit office under the general staff to recruit 20000 young recruits for one month's basic training, and then assigned them to all counties.

The second is how to settle those engineering camps and rear camps. The Chinese army has collected more than 100000 craftsmen and their families and nearly 300000 women.

These women include large wives and concubines rescued from the north, young ladies and servant girls, village women, small concubines and servant girls liberated from large families in Henan, and the original tens of thousands.

Among these people, in addition to 20000 young women who were selected into the lady camp, only a small number of village women and concubines were married, and others were still eating a big pot of rice.

It is impossible for him to assign these people to the 200000 single men. There is no such cheap thing in the world. He eats and drinks for nothing and has to find them wives. Therefore, at least one or two years of work should be done first to build roads, dig ditches and mines.

It's not enough to assign them all to Chinese soldiers. Who is willing to work hard to fight when they have wives and children?

After all, Qin Huan dared not give them the land, let alone women.

Therefore, the Chinese army in the future will not engage in blind dates, but will make military sounds and reward gold and silver.

Those who have reached the age of 30 and have not been promoted to captain will retire and be arranged to serve as county captain in each county, or engage in other logistics work. The same is true for the disabled.

At that time, these people can take the money to take office, buy a house, marry a wife and get a salary every month.

Only those who are above the team leader and reach the age of 30 will arrange blind dates with those women before they retire.

In the future, the Chinese army will gradually eliminate the older soldiers, go to work as county captains and captains, and recruit young and energetic young men.

More than 100000 craftsmen and their families remain in the army, as do women. They are non staff members of the Chinese army.

In order to accommodate them, Qin Huan set up seven offices under the logistics department to manage these craftsmen and women.

They are the Ordnance Department, which is specially responsible for making cold weapons, and has jurisdiction over weapons factory, armor factory and helmet factory.

The firearms Department has jurisdiction over fire gun factory, ammunition factory and artillery factory, which specializes in making fire gun and thunderbolt bamboo.

The Quartermaster's office has jurisdiction over quilt factories, shoe factories, etc., which is specially responsible for making military uniforms, military boots, belts, etc.

The military medical department is responsible for training female soldiers who save the lives and heal the wounded, making gauze, spirits and drugs, and recruiting some military doctors who are good at traumatic injuries and a small number of who know how to treat plagues and internal injuries.

The war horse department, as its name suggests, is responsible for domesticating and breeding war horses. For the time being, it can only allocate 2000 horses.

The breeding department is responsible for raising pigs, ducks and chickens, and providing meat and eggs for the army. Qin Huan plans to set up several farms for centralized breeding.

The transportation department is responsible for building carts and transporting grain and grass items.

In this way, hundreds of thousands of craftsman women, old and weak, women and children, have something to do, and can improve the logistics system of the army to achieve self-sufficiency.

Capable wives are in charge of management. Literate concubines and servant girls help. Village men and women go to breeding, go to quilt and clothing factories, and shrewd women go to rescue the dead and heal the wounded. Old people go to weave helmets to make cotton armor, blacksmiths and carpenters to build weapons and forge artillery and fire guns.

In the following days, the whole Chinese army was busy reorganizing and establishing various departments.

Although the soldiers have some emotions about not dating in the future, they think that they can be an official as long as they stay up to the age of 30, and their wives and children can live a stable life on the hot Kang. They can get military pay every month. Instead of making a noise, they are more looking forward to it.

The key is that this is the worst treatment. Once the enemy is killed bravely and promoted to captain, the king will win the world in the future. If he can't say, he will also be knighted, his wife and children, and he won't be afraid of injury and disability.

Therefore, the morale of the whole Chinese army not only did not decline, but rose again, because there were no worries at home and saw their own future.

After the first town was reorganized, Qin Huan immediately asked Hong Ying to recover Ruzhou and replace Cao Bianjiao.

The other four towns stayed near Nanyang for training and running in. Qin Huan put his mind on the gun factory and planned to develop new suifa fire guns and forge Fran machine guns.

He envisaged that there should be three kinds of troops in the future, one is the full firearm force, the other is the mixed arms of semi firearm and semi cold weapons, both of which are field troops, and the last is the cold weapon force, which belongs to the place where the second-line troops are stationed.

King Qin was busy fiddling with his army. Even Zhang Yan forgot everything. The gentry in Nanyang mansion were fried.

The Chinese army wants women's money and food. They can bear it. After all, if the money and food are gone, they can earn and plant again. If the servant girls and concubines are gone, they can buy again, but the land is their lifeblood and their bottom line.

With land and status, you have everything. Without land, what will you take to raise servant girls and concubines and protect the courtyard with servants in the future?

In the past dynasties, even if anyone came, they didn't do it like the Chinese army. It was unbearable to confiscate all their land.

Originally, a large number of gentry were waiting for the imperial examination to pick up scholars and win over them after King Qin announced the opening of the government, so they were ready to ask the children of the clan to change their names and go to the examination at that time. Who would have thought that they would wait for such a result.

Most of the hundreds of scholars who took refuge in Qin Huan were children of poor families. The reason why they took refuge in the Chinese army was that they could sit in luxury houses, beautiful concubines, thousands of acres of fertile land, seal their wives and children, and be rich for thousands of generations like those big families in the future.

Therefore, although he dared not resist Qin Huan's words in the open, when he arrived in various places, he acted with the local gentry.

Every day, he took people to measure the land outside the city. As soon as he met a servant to make trouble, he took the opportunity to retreat back to the county. In the evening, he secretly went to a big family for a dinner.

As a result, more than three million people just sit and eat every day for half a month. Not only did the land not be distributed, but all villages and towns were not established, and even the village head of Wu was not elected.
