Sweep the World

Ji Chang, who was judged as old-fashioned, was looking at the paper slips that he had just sent from the General's Mansion with a sad face.

These documents are about the damages of the Han Empire overseas, including a large number of Han Chinese who were detained by various countries, otherwise the General's Mansion would not be sent to Zhongshu Province.

The Han people have developed too fast in recent years, and they have set foot on the land of Europa.

A large number of businessmen or people who like to travel, they are in a foreign country.

This time the Persians and Romans took the lead in building an anti-Han axis, pulling a large group of countries into the so-called anti-Han axis. The war broke out too suddenly, and countries quickly or slowly took action against the Han people in their own countries. , There are not many Han Chinese who fall into the hands of various countries.

Similarly, after the outbreak of the war, the Han empire began to arrest the anti-Han axis people. A large number of people were arrested. Even the group of nobles from various countries who went to sea were caught back, including Yulian and Keshe. Yas was a member of the royal family of both Rome and Sassanid.

In the seventh month after the war broke out, the army of the Han Empire had already hit within two hundred miles of the Sassanian border. The first to pay the price of destroying the country for this war was the Hunite. .

"The mobilization is no longer limited to the Guan and the northwest." Sang Yu said sadly: "Shandong and the southeast have also begun to mobilize."

Those places are probably the former Guanzhong Zhili, Liangzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou, and Yangzhou. Among them, Jizhou and Qingzhou, Guanzhong, and Yangzhou are densely populated. After the mobilization order was issued, although only young people who had served in the county military service were recruited, Young people are restricted to 20 to 30 years old, but they can still mobilize at least half a million troops within a year.

"We must prepare a large number of military uniforms for the spring, summer, autumn and winter seasons, as well as an exaggerated amount of bedding and daily necessities, as well as supporting equipment..." Ji Chang said a little annoyed: "There is no shortage of national money, but...there is a shortage of manpower."

Today's Han people are in a state of restlessness. They already know that dozens of countries or tribes form alliances, shouting slogans to destroy the Han Empire and launching wars.

Han people who are about 20 years old or above basically have gone through that dark period before they straighten up and behave again. Most people just live a life with safety and security, even a good life of prosperity. Never tasted it.

The government just announced that it will focus its energy on restoring people’s livelihood, launching major projects to provide jobs, and increasing the supervision and reform of workshops and factories to ensure the treatment of workers. As a result, what anti-Han axis has emerged? !

The government decided to castrate the slaves before. Many people are still depressed about how to castrate the slaves. Once the castrated slaves can't work for a long time, then the slaves can no longer give birth to new slaves.

To be honest, even if the government offered generous compensation, more than 70% of those with slaves opposed the castration of slaves.

It turned out to be bad. First, there was a large-scale slave riot, and then an anti-Han axis appeared. Two consecutive events proved one thing, that is, there should be no other races in this world!

The military is naturally happy with the passion of the people. They love and long for war, but they also know that they must not be disgusted by the people.

Under this general trend, civilian officials are no matter how unwilling they are, and they have to put victory in the war as the first priority. It is too disheartening.

"A large number of young people enter the army, and there is bound to be a shortage of civilian labor." Ji Chang sighed sadly, and then continued: "The big man has been encouraging more births and more childbearing. Every household has babies or children. There is an auxiliary strategy. The man in the family leaves the house to serve, leaving only the woman to take care of the elders and the children. How to maintain production?"

Ji Chang did not mention slaves. The castration of slaves was already underway in various places, starting with official slaves. Once the official slaves were castrated, it was the turn of the privately owned slaves to castrate.

Slaves who are castrated will inevitably lose their ability to work. At the same time, they are also destined to not receive meticulous care. Some will die during the castration, and they will die if they lack a good environment to heal their wounds.

After the slave riots, the remaining slaves, both official and private, are probably more than 8 million left. According to some related estimates, once full castration is completed, only 6 million will remain.

Just castration will kill one or two million people? This is not an exaggeration at all. It is mainly due to the lack of veterans who are proficient in castration, and the lack of disinfection, the training environment behind the wounded, and food problems.

"Increase the capture of slaves on the black continent..." Sang Yu opened his mouth and said, "If the coastline is gone, it will go deep. There are many blacks on that continent, and they should have captured millions."

In the past, Ji Chang was very disgusted with the rampant use of slaves. It was only because of the insufficient number of Han people. In addition, he believed that the use of Han people in some dangerous projects was very inappropriate, and he never expressed any objections.

If the use of the yellow-skinned foreign slaves can still make Ji Chang feel that there is no hindrance to his observation, with the rapid increase of white-skinned slaves and dark-skinned slaves, he has begun to have his own actions, that is, he will move where it is dangerous. Slaves of white skin and dark skin used to express their attitudes by reducing the number of these two skins.

"Two loves?" Liu Yan walked into the court and saw Ji Chang and Sang Yu silently lost: "Is this elegant today?"

This is a scenic spot on the edge of the Qinling Mountains. According to legend, the first emperor built a palace here long ago in the pre-Qin Dynasty, but it was destroyed by war behind it.

Since the first emperor can choose to build the palace, it can be seen that the scenery is definitely good.

Nowadays, Chang'an has a population of more than 1.2 million. Various facilities in the city have been built on the basis of a huge number of slaves. Road planning and construction have been completed, and the construction of the periphery has begun.

People in the city always need a place to go outing outside the city, usually on the outskirts of the city. They like to climb mountains and wading with the sentiment of Zhu Xia. It was temporarily changed to a barracks.

The second and officially designated first firearms division of the Han Empire will be fully equipped with firearms here and be familiar with the operation of firearms.

Seeing Liu Yan appearing, Ji Chang and Sang Yu stood up and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty!"

"Do you have no idea about the war?" Liu Yan understood that, otherwise, what did the two of them come here for? He walked over and sat down on the stone chair, and said, "I just received Li Kuang's battle report, and the more than 300,000 enemy troops in the Penchi River have collapsed."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Ji Chang and Sang Yu both showed expressions of overjoy. In their estimation, that war would take a year or two or even longer. I really didn't expect the results to come so soon.

"The Anxi Guardian Array cut more than 100,000 and captured 120,000. The Romans and the Sassanian troops invaded eastward, and only more than 3,000 Persians regained their homeland." Cai You said beamingly, looked at Liu Yan and added Said: "His Royal Highness Shen also made great contributions in this campaign. He understood the Roman conspiracy and personally supervised his subordinates to deal with it properly. Li Duhu greatly appreciated His Highness Shen."

"Don't put gold on his face." Liu Yan said that, but the expression on his face was very pleased: "I am very happy that the eleven-year-old kid can do his job well."

"..."

As ministers, they were very happy and pleased to see Liu Yan, but they looked disapproving, wondering whether they should be silent or flattered?

"Liu Shen is already on the way back to Chang'an." Liu Yan looked at a unit that was practicing quadruple shooting, his eyes rested on the eldest son Liu Ming: "I put one son on the battlefield, and the second son will do it too. Join the army in the war."

"Your Majesty is Ming Jun!" Sang Yu first said with respect and respect, but then hesitated: "It's just...His Royal Highness..."

"He is also my heir." Liu Yan looked at Sang Yu and said, "As a prince, I should have done something for the big man."

The three ministers fell silent. In fact, they did not approve of Liu Yan's arrangement for Liu Ming to enter the military, and they clearly expressed their opposition several times.

The reason for their opposition is quite simple. It can be said that Liu Yan let Liu Shen go to the army for training. It can also be said that Liu Shen gains the favor of the military. It has the meaning of letting Liu Shen establish his own team.

Liu Yan’s behavior was seen by the ministers as sending a signal to Liu Shen as a prince to train, but later even Liu Ming was arranged to enter the army, or as a soldier, so they were a little confused. Up.

"Holy." Ji Chang's name is different from His Majesty, it is the name of the patriarch: "The minister still opposes Prince Ming's entry into the army."

"I know your worries." Liu Yan really knows it. It's nothing more than worries that Liu Ming will have his own team, and he thinks it's a way to get rid of chaos. He still said: "Zhu Xia has had a system of enfeoffment since ancient times, and ministers have entrusted towns and nations, and the princes and kings are also the same. I have laid such a country and rewarded the monarchs. As long as the princes are not too absurd, in the future It will also have its own country."

Once again, everyone had nothing to say.

They have indeed received generous awards. Everyone has their own country, and they have this kind of treatment. Are they going to oppose Liu Yan's assignment of a country to his heirs?

"I don't want some heirs who are longer than the deep palace to control the kingdom." This is the first time that Liu Yan expressed his clear view: "For those who are far away, they must have the ability to resist foreign races and even continue to expand. Talent. How can it not be cultivated?"

Sang Yu hesitated repeatedly, gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty should make an early decision on the candidate for the prince."

Ji Chang and Cai You turned their heads elsewhere. They knew that it was Sang Yu's one-man show, and they shouldn't participate in it.

Sang Shimiao, she now only has one daughter, and without a son, it means that she doesn't even have the qualifications to compete for the crown prince.

Sang Yu is now asking Liu Yan to set up a prince, and Liu Shen must have the most advantage. Liu Ming, who is arranged to enter the army, is only a slight threat even if it is threatened. It was equivalent to saying that Sang did not mix up.

Liu Yan now has seven sons. Except for Liu Shen, who was born to Empress Cui Wan, the rest are low-rank concubines in the harem, and the four concubines at the next level of the queen are all daughters.

Throughout the entire dynasty, I didn't know whether to lament Liu Shen's good destiny, or wonder if the rest of the nobles were disappointed. To say that the Han Empire really should have a clear crown prince, there is really no more suitable candidate than Liu Shen.

"I will think about it." Liu Yan stared at Sang Yu for about two minutes before speaking, and then changed the subject: "The war to invade the Sassanids will officially begin in the autumn of next year. In addition to several generals going, it will take another one. A suitable civilian minister. I decided to let Sang Qing go."

Sang Yu knew that this was a reward for expressing his attitude, and with a happy expression, he promised: "Your Majesty will not be disappointed!"

In the Han Empire, no matter how high the status, no matter how prominent the title, without sufficient military support, it is actually very illusory.

Many high-ranking officials and prominent lords actually accounted for a contribution from the dragon's merits, and then their support from the rear, stabilizing internal support for the war ahead, and may not have real military merits, especially those obtained on the battlefield.

Sang Yu is one of those people who have never been to the battlefield to gain military merit. He has always been looking forward to one day to make up for this deficiency, but after so many years, there has been no chance. He can be regarded as having it now, but he may not be so happy.

"Shang Shuling is in charge of the six departments..." Ji Chang said hesitantly: "Ping Xianghou went to the front..., the sixth department..."

Sang Yu looked at Ji Chang immediately, his face was very stinky.

"I am in charge of it myself." Liu Yan is to let Sang Yu go to the front line, and as long as he has a demonstrable feat, he will be summoned back, which is gilded in a pure sense. He first laughed heartily, and then said: "The big man didn't destroy those enemy countries, how can he be safe? The future big man, everything will be military."

That's a fact, not necessarily to destroy all the countries on the anti-Han axis, but the Persian Sassanian, which is the closest to the Han Empire on the world island, must be destroyed.

Ji Chang frowned further. He really feels that he can do whatever he is afraid of. He just hopes that the whole country will not fall into military control again~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Otherwise, the people's livelihood environment will only get worse and worse, and the country will not look like a normal country.

"I have been thinking about it for some time..." Liu Yan looked at the three of them, and finally stopped his gaze on Ji Chang: "Whether we want to establish a wartime cabinet."

Sang Yu opened his mouth, and still didn't say anything behind.

Cai You knew about this, and he gave a few comments.

The Han Empire has just changed from a system of three publics and nine officials to a system of three provinces and six ministries. Compared with the system of San Gong and Jiu Qing, the powers of the system of three provinces and six ministries are scattered, mainly for the consideration of imperial power.

If in a peaceful state, the powers are scattered and the efficiency of doing things is slower, it is actually a good thing for a big country, not a bad thing.

If it enters a state of war, then it will definitely not be possible to procrastinate, and it should be the state machine running at full speed, so that everything can be done as quickly as possible.

"Your Majesty." It was the first time that Ji Chang heard this news, and he said: "Chen...Chen..." He was against it, but he didn't dare to say that.
