Sweep the World

Chapter 601: : A widow needs at least 100 million people

The Zhang clan made some contributions to China. After the Sima imperial family took the lead in fleeing south of the Yangtze River, they have been fighting hard against the Hu people. Until Zhang Chonghua took the throne, they respected the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty as Zhengshuo. . Fastest update

Respecting the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty for Zhengshuo is indeed a kind of contribution. No matter how the Zhang clan is secretly engaged, it still belongs to the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The idea of ​​"unification" allows the nation of China to maintain unity and continue to pass on.

There are quite a lot of ethnic groups on the earth. The history that can be traced to the above-mentioned five thousand years of AD, many ethnic groups have been glorious for a while, but these ethnic groups quickly disappeared in the long river of time, even if there are descendants left, but those The descendants will no longer think that they are the follow-up of someone, but will be exposed to a new culture and become a new nation.

The Yanhuang clan began to fight and grew from the source of the Yellow River. After the Xia and Shang dynasties, they continued to compete with Rong, Di, Yi, Man, and Yue for living space, before they had Ji Zhou's basic board.

In Zhou Dynasty, the royal family surnamed Ji divided the ministers, with the intention of letting those courtiers defend the royal family. Those courtiers who were entrusted out, the conditions they encountered at the time were actually extremely bad. Not only did they have to withstand the attacks and conquests of various foreign races, but they also had to face extremely harsh environments. The Zhou clan of Ji surnamed was divided into three thousand, and most of the vassals were perished in the hands of foreign races. Those princes who were able to persist and develop after the Zhou clan moved east to become the kingdoms of the early Spring and Autumn Period.

Regardless of what kind of thoughts Ji surnamed Zhou had to entrust the ministers at the beginning, the big entrustment really achieved one point, that is, to fight for more living space for the ethnic group.

The entrustment of the princes expanded the living space of the same seedlings, but it would be difficult to say what it would be like without Qin sweeping the wasteland. After all, after hundreds of years of different countries, such as the Qin, Zhao, Yan, and Koreans , Chu people... etc. People from different countries have their own professions. If there is no Qin dominates the world, and the countries have become independent after a longer period of time, it is conceivable that even if they have the same ancestor, they will definitely become different nations.

Qin made a great contribution to the rule of the world, and the subsequent vehicles with the same track, the same text, and the weights and measures have created the foundation for the national kneading. If there is no such thing, I don't know if there is a Chinese nation?

Qin's contribution is indelible, but it is the Han Empire that gives the Chinese Hmong a sense of pride.

It was the prosperity of the Han Dynasty that gave the nation a booster, with the continuous expedition to break the nation and the prosperity of the tribe, the rest of the nation began to have the title of "Han", waiting for Chen Tang to hold the banner of the marquis and the head of the Zhanzhi branch. , The sentence "Though a strong man will be punishable even if the criminal is far away" supports the backbone of the Han people, even when the Han Dynasty is destroyed, they are still fighting against the aliens, and there is a legend of "the country is destroyed by the weak, and the only Han is destroyed by the strong". In later generations.

How much influence did the great achievements of the Han Empire have? It was the incompetence of the Sima royal family that lost the Central Plains. In order to gain support, Liu Yuan, a Huns, could only call out that he had Han blood and made a notorious "emperor".

The first national title that many foreign nations thought of establishing countries was "Han". As a result, there were Liu Yuanhan, Li Shoucheng, Liu Zhiyuan, Liu Zhiyuan, Liu Chongbei, Liu Yin, and Nanhan. There are only so many countries that have truly established themselves side by side, and even more have been named but have not succeeded in establishing a country. The Han King is also a top prince in all dynasties and generations.

The military prosperity of the Western Han and Eastern Han Dynasty really had an unimaginable impact. It was until the Yang Jian reign of the Zhou Dynasty, and the slogan was to restore the dignity of the Han family and rebuild the glory of a strong man. It is no exaggeration to say that Yang Jian spent his entire life restoring the status of the Han people, and he was also the founder of the imperial examination. Although the Sui Dynasty was short-lived, its contribution to ethnicity was not low at all. Even after 2000 AD, it still enjoyed the rest of cuteness.

Liu Yan’s vision of seeing things is different from that of many people today. He has a clear concept of nationality and knows how big the world is. Of course, he has the heart to build an everlasting empire, but he wants to make the Han family a place of focus. The Miao have a larger living space, and it is best if there are Han people everywhere on the earth.

The things he thinks are different and he has a broader vision. In fact, when Liu Yan faces an enemy of the same ethnicity, he will adopt a more moderate approach, especially because he thinks that the enemy contributes to the ethnicity. To be extremely cruel.

As far as Liu Yan is concerned, the world is really big, so big that even the most enemy of his clan, it’s okay not to be completely wiped out but to be driven to a certain place. I even hope that those who are driven away can gain a firm foothold, even if it’s been forever. As an enemy, it is better than some alien races to occupy those places. The love of midsummer, the love of the three princesses

Liu Yan firmly believes that under the environment where the idea of ​​great unification is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, even if his generation indulges in the enemy's kin, the next generation will inevitably "recover" those "wanderers" who have drifted away. Besides, he deliberately indulges sometimes, and he will certainly not hesitate when it is time to close the net, and may not have to wait for the next generation to do it.

Regarding whether or not to accept Zhang Zuo, the ministers who accompanied Liu Yan on the expedition gave their opinions in words one after another the next day. I don't know if they have communicated privately, but they have no objections, just how to accept them, what treatment should be given after acceptance, and some details have different opinions.

Zhang Zuo is not the King of Liang now. He faked Zhang Chonghua’s edict and called himself a general. He had no name to represent Zhang’s Liangguo and surrendered the whole country. He could represent himself, and he might also bring those counties and counties that were willing to obey.

Zhang Chonghua, the well-known Liang Wang of Zhang's Liang country, is in Xiangguo, just like the heads and brains of the defeated and captured countries and forces, he is in imprisonment.

After Zhang Chonghua failed to go on a hunger strike, he began to use non-violence and non-resistance. He has always adopted a non-cooperative attitude, which is considered to be a more spineless person in the minds of all the captured heads.

The so-called heroes and enemies of the enemy, it is a good thing for those who have the backbone to be their own people, but the enemies with the backbone will look annoying. What Han wants to get is a Xiliang that has not been greatly destroyed, but also does not want to. Too many people were killed in the process of destroying Zhang's Liang Country, so Zhang Chonghua's non-cooperation was really an obstacle.

Should Han's population now exceed 20 million? As of five years before Yuanshuo, the statistical population was more than 9 million. The large gap in the ratio of males to females shows that it is within the scope of the statistics, including Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Yuzhou and most of Sizhou, most of Jizhou, Part of Guanzhong does not count those states and counties that were originally under the rule of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, under the rule of Li's Cheng Han Dynasty, and newly occupied.

Due to the insufficient relationship between government officials and the serious hidden population in the localities, it is not easy to count household registration now.

Murong Yanguo conducted a census in 342 AD. It only took a year to collect reliable statistics. At that time, the data obtained was 370,000 households, according to a household with five persons. To calculate it is 1.85 million people. The reason why they are so easy to do when they count the population is that they have the foundation to organize the households before, and it is also related to the military law of the war during the war. (When Qian Yan went south to attack Ran Wei, he drew a soldier from one household, and his total force was close to 400,000.)

Countries like Shijie Zhao, the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Li Chenghan, Tuoba Daiguo, Zhang Liangguo... etc. simply cannot do it if they want to count the population. In addition to the incompetent officials, the local authorities are powerful. The concealment of the population is one of the obstacles.

Of course, the Hu people regime generally does not recruit the Han people, even if the Han people are recruited, they are only used by the people. This habit was maintained until the Northern Wei Dynasty. It was because a large number of Hu people and young men were consumed in the years of the war. The Hu people’s regime really could not draw out more Hu people and young men as soldiers. Turning to the young and strong Han people, otherwise there is a clear division of labor, the Hu people are responsible for the war, and the Han people are responsible for the production.

It must be said that after the Hus took the initiative to break the boundaries between the conscripts and the production classes, the so-called family of military commanders also appeared. By the time of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the family of military commanders had developed to a stage sufficient to influence the country’s transformation. One of the countries, and the so-called "pillar country" is actually a family of military commanders.

A large number of veterans from Han State went to the local government to serve as grassroots officials. The statistics of the population were handled by them. In the past few years, the reason why Han State has been pursuing local tycoons is because of those who are unwilling to be ruled by Han. More It is unwilling to turn over the occupied land and the population under control.

The clean-up of tycoons has been done since Liu Yan founded the country. It was after the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was formally annihilated that local resistance gradually decreased. By the five-year period of Yuanshuo, there were not many daring opponents, and the speed of population statistics was also increased. Increase faster.

"18 million, it won't be more." Ji Chang, Liu Yan, was talking about the census data gradually collected from various states and counties this morning: "Those places in Sizhou plus Bingzhou and Shuozhou are all with a declining population. , Even if you check for the omissions, at most 400,000 are counted, at most 500,000 in Shudi and Badi, and no more than 8 million in the south of the Yangtze River. "There must be something wrong with my posture in laying eggs.

Eighteen million people are not simply Han descent, at least five or six million are people who changed their ancestors... or are people of mixed blood, that is, they were originally Hu people. After the establishment of Han, some of them were early I finished the Sinicization by myself, and I was more afraid of being slaughtered and said that I was a Han, but Han did not pursue it at all. As long as I am willing to change my living habits, speak Chinese, and write Chinese characters, I can become a Han in addition to the Jie people. .

Liu Yan vaguely remembers some data...

The total population of Shijie Zhao at the end of the country should be about 10 million. This can be seen from the fact that Shihu will recruit a million army at every turn. It depends on how many households there are. Basically, a household has to have individuals to serve as soldiers or civilians, and the so-called army of one million is counted as even the citizens.

Of the 10 million people under Shi Jie's rule, the Han people are estimated to be three or four million. The Jie people themselves will not survive more than one million, but the combined number of Qiang and Di people is more than four million, and the rest are all miscellaneous. This tens of millions of people declined very rapidly during the war, and genocide broke out during the war. The number of Han people who died in the genocide alone exceeded one million, and the rest of the ethnic groups also suffered heavy losses.

Li's Chenghan did not conduct a census. The largest recruiting force during Li Shou's reign was a 130,000 army. It still adopts the popular calculation method of each household, and then there may be fathers, sons, and brothers. The situation where the younger brother is a soldier is counted, that is, the entire country has a population of about one million.

The long-term army of the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was about 200,000, which means that there are only about 200,000 households that have been officially filed. However, each family can have many trophies or private soldiers, which is quite obvious. A large number of people are not on the national household registration, they are servants or private slaves of the family.

"We did not have less cleanups in the South. There are only 270,000 people who have the first level of merit. And this does not include Zhu Barbarians and Zhu Yue." Ji Chang frowned, and said with some dissatisfaction: "It's not about General Zhengnan. Killing is wrong, it is because the method of killing is not considered."

Liu Yan was not a native of this era, and he didn't understand why so many people were willing to die with the family. He cut off 270,000 people when he heard that he was only related to tycoons, and he frowned involuntarily.

Each regime is divided into periods. Liu Yan only slightly remembers the peak period of the Eastern Jin Dynasty when there were more than 17 million people. As for the current number, I really don’t know.

In fact, the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty conducted a census in the years after Yongjia, and the population data obtained was 10.5 million, which is strangely reduced to less than 4 million in the following decades. The reason why the population has dropped by more than half is to think about the family's methods of hiding the population and you will know the answer.

"If Murong Xianbei is to be attacked..." Liu Yan showed a look of eagerness: "How much more population can be added to the big man?"

Ji Chang estimated that he knew Liu Yan would ask, and quickly gave the answer: "Looking at the severity of the war, if it can be attacked quickly, it should be able to get a population of more than 1.5 million."

"That's not 20 million~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Liu Yan pondered, even clutching his fingers, not afraid that Ji Chang would leak the secret, and whispered as if talking to himself: "Even if there are 20 million people. , The ones that really belonged to the Han descent are less than ten million, and the rest are Xibei goods... It will take me so many years to fully become a Han..."

Ji Chang felt that Liu Yan had fallen into trouble, and bluntly persuaded him: "The king, as long as you accept the rule of the big man and are willing to fight for the king, they are Han people."

Liu Yan looked at Ji Chang, looked at it for a while with an expression of'you don't understand', and then said: "Even so, 20 million people are not enough. The widow is very distressed now, and the soldiers are sharp enough. , I have enough power to open up a larger territory, but I am afraid that the land that has been smashed will not be used by the people. Dahan needs to increase to tens of millions in 20 years. The prime minister's first important task in the future is to find ways to increase the population of Dahan! "

Ji Chang was immediately stunned. He has been studying very hard in recent years. In the previous dynasties, the Eastern Han Dynasty had the largest population. The problem is that it took about two hundred years for the Eastern Han Dynasty to have 65 million people. Liu Yan actually wanted to be within twenty years. Increasing to 100 million, even if the right-age couples are fighting for their lives, can the country bear a series of ancillary effects? !
