Sweep the World

Chapter 1021: : The whole world conquering Han (12)

For the whole world to attack Han, it seems that the matter is very big, but in fact it is really a big event, but there will still be an order in which things happen.

The countries instigated slave riots first in order to plunge the Han Empire into internal turmoil.

Subsequently, the overseas territories of the Han Empire were also attacked one after another. There were attacks in order to obtain gunpowder, and more to attack them while the garrison had no excessive precautions.

If you want to break out of a national war with a country, the first choice is naturally to provoke that country’s civil strife. Even if it cannot be subversive, it will inevitably make it difficult for that country to take care of the outside world for a while.

Before the internal turbulence has been dealt with, it will be even more difficult for the country to concentrate all its forces on the outside.

Perhaps during the period of dealing with internal turbulence, the country will also cause greater internal crisis, which is equivalent to external forces using the smallest price to obtain the greatest benefits as much as possible.

More than two months have passed since the first slave riots occurred in Wuyang County, and the slave riots one after another did cause considerable losses to the Han Empire.

The slave itself was the property of the Han Empire. Every time a slave died, it was equal to the loss of a part of the property. The slave riots also caused damage to the place, and then the ongoing projects were forced to stop.

"For two months, the statistical loss is that more than 300,000 slaves were lost and the property loss caused was not less than 40,000 yuan." Ji Chang looked rather haggard: "The main reason is that the location of the slave riots is not The construction site is the workshop and the factory, so there is such a high loss of property."

It's all in riots, and it's impossible for slaves not to destroy them. They destroy almost everything they catch, and they don't have any scruples if they can set fire to them.

The effectiveness of the suppression of the garrisons in various places is not slow, even the slowest will arrive on the same day. That is, the arrival of the army does not mean that the destruction of slaves has ceased, and subsequent engagements will cause further destruction.

Forty thousand dollars is four hundred thousand gold coins.

In the Han Empire, one thousand five baht coins were exchanged for one silver coin, and ten silver coins were exchanged for one gold coin.

Looking at the loss of five baht money is quite a lot, and it is not so painful when it is replaced with gold coins.

Liu Yan didn't care about the loss of property. The total annual tax revenue of the Han Empire exceeded 3 million gold coins at the lowest time, and even reached 7 million gold coins at the highest time.

Because of tax benefits, commercial taxes accounted for about 45%, and honors and honors accounted for about 15%. Except for 8% of agricultural taxes, the rest are miscellaneous taxes.

Liu Yan calculated in private that only the Shaofu’s commercial activities accounted for 60% of the 45% of the total tax.

The taxes in the Han Empire were not one size fits all. There were high taxes on luxury goods, that is, luxury taxes.

For example, for the jadeite transaction, for every transaction concluded, the amount of tax that needs to be paid is 400 times the agricultural tax.

The taxes paid are so many, the profits that can be generated are definitely more than the taxes paid. The Han Empire can receive taxes of several million gold coins every year, so the business quota must exceed tens of millions of gold coins, but it is not. I know if it has broken 100 million.

Regarding property losses, Liu Yan cares about how long it will take to recover after being destroyed. He suffered more losses from the government than the people, and he actually held a happy attitude.

If the official loses, it loses. If the private individual loses, it may cut off the livelihood of a certain family, and even affect dozens of hundreds or more families.

After the loss, it must be rebuilt, and the official rebuilding will inevitably stimulate an increase in domestic demand. On the premise that there is no need to build more official facilities, the destruction and reconstruction is actually good news for the people.

"What are the people's attitudes towards what happened?" Liu Yan attaches great importance to this: "Is there any public opinion investigation?"

How could Ji Chang ignore this aspect and replied: "Sampling surveys of the people in Guanzhong did not cause a large-scale panic. He was indignant about what happened."

It has been nearly a decade for the Han to stand up and take control again. As the principals in the family, almost all of them have gone through the years of raging Hulu. For them, the turmoil that occurred this year was actually a trivial matter, and there really was no panic in their hearts.

"Your Majesty." Ji Chang felt it necessary to say good news: "Slave riots everywhere. Before the garrison arrived, people in many places took part in the suppression spontaneously. In some places, the riotous slaves have been suppressed without waiting for the arrival of the army."

The Han Empire has been carrying out the "two-quarter military training". Every summer and winter, various places will gather young men and women for military training.

In the Han Empire, it was extremely normal for the people to hold weapons.

Some foreigners who came to the Han Empire once suspected that they had come to a large barracks, wondering why the Han people had at least one dagger on their bodies, and the hanging of a sword or a knife at the waist was even more normal.

The types of weapons that the Han Empire banned civilian possession were mainly strong bows and crossbows. For melee weapons, the people were encouraged to purchase them on the contrary. The prohibition on armor should be stricter. If the common people have a pair of armor, it is fine, but if they have a few pairs of armor, it is a crime.

In fact, that's the case. Every year there is a "two-quarter military training", and then to prohibit the people from holding weapons, isn't that a contradiction?

"People..." Liu Yan didn't know whether to be happy or worried, and asked, "Are the casualties high?"

In the two-month slave riots, the casualties of the army were less than a thousand people, and most of them were still not serious.

People who spontaneously participated in the suppression, everyone has weapons, but not everyone has armor, and armor is not as good as the military, and the casualties are more serious than the military. According to statistics, there are 1,017 people killed in the battle. , More than 8,000 people with minor or serious injuries.

"Those who died in the war are treated as if they were killed in a national war." Liu Yan was naturally relieved by the bloodliness of the people: "Dahan people dare to fight, so how can the whole world attack Han?"

Ji Chang did not encourage the people to participate in the war privately. He believed that it was the duty of the army to go to the battlefield. If the people were enlisted into the army, there would be nothing. The responsibility of the people who were not enlisted was to carry out production in the rear.

There are two sides to everything. It is a good thing for the people to join the war spontaneously, but if they have a better organization, some casualties can actually be avoided.

"Your Majesty." Ji Chang frowned slightly and said: "Shang Shuling suggested that the whole country enter a state of war, but the minister thought it was too early."

The so-called state of war across the country does not mean that everyone is fighting on the battlefield, but that a large number of troops have been recruited. At the same time, the production system has begun to focus on the production of military materials.

Ji Chang, who has been the prime minister for several years, is very clear that if the whole country enters a state of war, what he did in the previous two years will be useless, and the country's economic planning will inevitably become deformed.

In the current Han Empire, some production relies on machinery, but most of its production is actually relying on hands. If it really starts to mobilize, the number of troops will increase sharply, which means that the number of people will decrease.

As long as it is a normal country, it is not a compelling moment. There really is no country that will easily switch from a normal system to a wartime system.

"At present, the troops from all parts of the Northwest have moved to the Western Regions. The same is true for the Guanzhong Garrison." Ji Chang is an order from the Central Committee and should not interfere in military affairs, but the country's transition to the war system is really too big: "Anxi Dufufu There will be five standing armies within a month at the latest, and the local can recruit 100,000 auxiliary troops, so there will be no worries."

Anxi Duhu Mansion originally had only one standing army, but it had the right to enlist local Han Chinese as auxiliary soldiers.

The last time Li Kuang presided over the war with Hunite, only two regular divisions were dispatched. Only 50,000 people were recruited, and they were matched with a Western Region servant army of about 250,000.

In Ji Chang's view, in the face of the global attack on Han, the Han Empire should adopt a defensive stance, take a look at which countries have taken action, and then strive for those countries that have not done it.

In this way, the Han empire needs special attention to the northwest and other overseas territories, and the rest is to focus on the domestic.

The Han Empire usually maintains a standing army of fifteen, and a firearms division was newly formed last year.

The current Habayashi army and the other two standing armies are in a reloading state, but aren't there still thirteen standing armies that can be used? Especially that firearms master was in the Captain's Department of Junji Mountain not far behind Anxi Duhu Mansion.

"Li Kuanghui has four standing armies under its jurisdiction." Liu Yan didn't count the auxiliary troops temporarily recruited: "Including the firearms division transferred from the Junji Mountain Captain's Department."

The firearms division’s organization has been reformed. There is no longer a corps leader, but the organization above "W" has been retained. At the same time, the personnel organization has also undergone new changes. The five-five system is used. The squadron is one squadron, the five squadrons are one squadron, the five squadrons are one regiment, and the five regiments are one division.

A firearms division has nearly 35,000 personnel, which is equivalent to more personnel than the two standing armies.

In the future, once the standing army is reorganized into firearms divisions, it will basically be divided into four levels: A, B, C, and D.

The Class A division is composed of 35,000 people, with four standard rifle regiments, one standard artillery regiment and two major squads.

Behind the division level is still the designation of the army, corps, and group army. Three divisions are one army, and three corps are one corps. The group army is equivalent to the front army.

"Twenty years ago in Yuanshuo, Dahan had to have more than six firearms masters!" Liu Yan knew what Ji Chang was worrying about, and said with a smile: "Taian, now it is not that I want to be military and military, it is the countries that have to struggle with Dahan. what."

"The minister dare not." Ji Changcai didn't dare to say that Liu Yan was militant. If Liu Yan insisted that the whole country enter the wartime system, he would not dare to stop it, but he still had to do his duty as a courtier and express his worries: "Your Majesty, Dahan now has nearly 13 million children and nearly 6 million teenagers."

The so-called children are under twelve years old, and juveniles are twelve to eighteen years old.

There will be such an exaggerated number of children and teenagers because of national policy.

The Han Empire has always encouraged multiple births, and allocated an exaggerated amount of financial resources. There are assistance for two or more children, and rewards for three or more children. If a family has eight or more children, the husband will get the first level even if he is white. For the title, the mother will receive the title of "Great Mother".

The fact that a country has entered an absolute "rejuvenation" is not so normal anymore. Before, it could continue to start major projects because of the huge number of slaves.

Slaves everywhere are now in constant riots, and even if there are no riots, the project has stopped one after another.

Since slave riots have continued to occur, the monitoring and control of slaves must be improved infinitely. In the past, hundreds of people could guard 10,000 slaves, but now it takes a thousand people to guard 10,000 slaves.

It is conceivable that as long as the slave riots are not completely quelled, or even after they are completely quelled, the use of slaves in various places is absolutely cautious, and the manpower and finances used in this area will inevitably need to be increased.

Slaves rioted, but the established castration policy has not stopped. According to Liu Yan's intention, since some things have happened, they will simply carry out what they have done.

In that case, the slave riots probably did not stop for that day.

After all, as a man, who is not afraid of his *** being cut?

In the past, it was to admit fate or fear death again, knowing that he would be cut off, who wouldn't resist?

For a long period of time, a large number of projects will be suspended, and chaos will continue. For the Han Empire, this is undoubtedly a huge challenge.

Under this status quo, if we switch to the wartime system, it is inevitable that people's livelihood will stagnate, and even a certain degree of regression will occur. It will only be an unhealthy expansion of the military-related items.

"I understand." Liu Yan thinks that it is not necessarily a bad thing: "I know exactly what I am doing."

The current military industry is actually closely linked to the people's livelihood, but it is not as distinct as it is in the modern era.

Even if the Han Empire is about to enter the age of firearms, cold weapons are still the mainstream in the army, which is nothing more than a huge consumption of pig iron and steel.

In the current society, the lack of pig iron and steel will not cause fatal effects at all.

Once it is a large-scale army expansion ~www.wuxiamtl.com~, the first benefit will be clothing-related. And this is definitely something that ordinary people can benefit from.

"Taian." Liu Yan said soothingly: "What you need to pay close attention to is the discipline of children and young people everywhere. As long as this aspect is handled well, the big man will not be able to mess up."

The first nursery school was established in Yuanshuo in the seventh year.

The first elementary school was established in the eleventh year of Yuanshuo.

The Han Empire now has 8,727 elementary schools, 609 middle schools, and 74 high schools, but there is only one university in Chang'an.

Of course, this number is not enough, and it needs to be increased over and over again.

"I will not immediately transfer the country to the wartime system." Liu Yan wanted to feed the next Ji Chang a reassurance: "The big man is forced to be involved in the war this time, and must make the strongest counterattack, but they are not qualified. The big man fully transferred to the wartime system."

Ji Chang was immediately relieved. He just said that the real battle will break out on the side of the Western Regions. At most, there is one more Tianzhu Protectorate, which does not require the whole country to immediately enter the wartime system.
