Thanks to the impression that the famous generation of civil officials who were worse than **** gave the future generations of celestial people, it is an inevitable phenomenon that the celestial people did not trust the civil officials.

Secondly, the military of a country guarantees the existence of the country. Even if the military is really shit, the information about the military is actually in a closed state, which is not something ordinary people can know at all. Let ordinary people have a better impression of the army.

In fact, even if the civilian officials in a country are greedy, or even do some anger and grievances, they will not be as powerful as the army.

Once the army erodes, the country will enter the stage of having a country without defense, and the invasion of foreign enemies will cause the country to subdue. If there is a rebellion in the army, it is not as simple as the people’s livelihood, but the country is plunged into war.

As long as a ruler with a normal mind, he can tolerate the corruption of civilian officials, but he will definitely not see the corruption of the military. Everything is nothing more than civilian officials have no military power. Only a few government officers can easily clean up corrupted civilian officials. Once involved The military is no small matter.

Although Liu Yan has become a king, his long-standing thoughts will not change just in a few years, and what events need to be encountered to wake up.

The rulers of the past dynasties will not feed the army too much as long as they are not compelled to do so. What they do is to keep the military's materials at the minimum limit, so that even if the army does rebel, it will lack supplies and cannot fight for a long time.

As a ruler, Liu Yan has not yet become a king in the true sense, so he can't be cold-blooded and ruthless. Because of his nostalgia for the army before crossing, some behaviors are really too inclined to the military.

It is not that no one in the Han country sees the risk of the army holding a huge amount of supplies. It should be said that anyone in the center can see it, but for the time being, no one advises Liu Yan.

No one went to state the reason for the serious relationship. As the envoy, Sang Yu personally visited the counties and counties. In just three months, he uncovered a large group of local officials who did all the bad things, and really let the central civil service system. Blushing is hard to speak. Secondly, the country is about to enter the stage of internal affairs development. The military has nowhere to go because it cannot start a large-scale war. Anyone who jumps out may be hostile and attacked by the military.

In fact, there is another reason that even a civil official cannot refute. As long as it is a civil official, the three emperors and five emperors mentioned above, and the modern times are mentioned below. As a civil official, it is clear that as long as there is oil and water, there must be people who reach out. It is inevitable that someone will stretch out their hands, the difference is the big greed or the small greed.

This is not to say that the military will not reach out, any group will be pests. The problem is that the military will reach out for fewer people than civilian officials because of the sense of honor and discipline.

Ji Chang positioned himself as the king’s loyal dogleg. If others dare not say or are unwilling to say, he has to speak out even if he bites the bullet.

After the great dynasty meeting ended, Liu Yan, as usual, went to the apse to sit for a short while, waiting for someone to meet in private and talk about some things that were not easy to say in the great dynasty, and maybe someone would give a small report.

"Huh? What about the military's corruption?" Liu Yan didn't think about this problem. When Ji Chang said it, he had to put it on the table: "Materials are managed and dispatched by the military, but the central and local authorities have to set up separate sets. The team supervises."

"The army keeps a huge amount of supplies..." Ji Chang said a little bit freely, "I'm afraid something unspeakable will happen."

Having said that, no ruler in the past dynasties was willing to let the army control the materials, even if the materials were so large that the national treasury could not hold them, but the usual practice is that the supplies are only limited to the available range of three months, in order to jam the logistics of the army and allow the rebellion. The army lacks supplies and can be better suppressed.

The army of Han was created by Liu Yan. He is an absolute authority in the military. He really has no worries about the rebellion of the army. As a result, Ji Chang mentioned that the army might break out of rebellion. The expression on his face was very different. weird.

What Ji Chang was afraid of was that Liu Yan was completely relieved of the military, and he was relieved to see the strange expression on Liu Yan's face. He would not say that some materials should be kept and deployed by the civilian system. Liu Yan had already made a final decision at the Great Dynasty Meeting, and it was a serious matter to discuss how to conduct supervision.

To carry out a nationwide infrastructure construction, first of all, there must be food reserves. Before Ji Chang came, he had already found Yu Yi. As a group to colonize the Indo-China Peninsula, the Yu family was headed. At least in name, the families respect the Yu family. Just ask Yu for any question.

Even if it is only a nominal leader, Yu Yi still has a fear of becoming a leader. He is afraid that Liu Yan has any bad opinions. Then it is tantamount to erecting a sign that is under attack. Because of this, he never shirks when he can cooperate with Liu Yan, and never pretends to be forced when he is able to keep a low profile for various things.

Before Ji Chang found it, Yu Yi had made the greatest psychological preparation. Ji Chang only asked a few words, and he stated that even if all the monkeys in the Indochina Peninsula were starved to death, he would ensure that he would search for as much food as possible and return home. .

It has been almost two years since the Han people entered the Indochina Peninsula, and they know how much the local production capacity can do. When talking about food last time, Yu Yi contracted 15 million shi as soon as he opened his mouth.

15 million stone grain sounds a lot, but in fact the amount is really huge. With the measurement unit of the two Jin Dynasties, one stone is one hundred and sixty kilograms of the modern measurement unit, then it is 2.4 billion kilograms, which is 1.2 million tons according to Liu Yan's plan.

1.2 million tons of food is not a small amount, but if the number of people eaten is more than 17 million people, it will be enough to eat for about three months at most without suppression. There are still a variety of complementary foods. Under conditions. If there is no supplementary food, the ancients let go of eating, and Qingzhuang can eat a catty for a meal.

There are only 1.2 million tons of food available for 17 million people. Such a country must be a pill every minute. Therefore, even if the Indochina Peninsula can provide this amount of food, it is a waste of money.

"If the Central Plains has no real grains, it will only calculate the output in the south and then settle the tax..." Ji Chang blinked his eyes for a while and said with difficulty: "At most about 40 million shi?"

Taking the original territory of the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the official taxable farmland of the whole country ended before the demise of the small court. A year of 20 million shi is considered to be the highest. Ji Chang’s data doubled that of the southern family. A lot of them have been destroyed, and the cultivated fields that the family had previously concealed have surfaced.

Liu Yan's calculations were considered passable, and he did a silent calculation to arrive at a figure of 4.4 million tons. This time, he kept blinking his eyes and was frightened by the food available to the whole country. After a while, he asked, "How is the food reserve of Dahan now?"

Ji Chang opened his mouth and gave the number: "The contract is 35 million shi."

There will be this number. One is that Huan Wen slaughtered in the south, collected from the families that were exterminated; the other is the annual tax accumulation, which naturally also includes the looting on the Indochina Peninsula.

"Last year, the big man can use statistics to consume a total of 70 million shi, of which 70% is used for war, and the rest is for the private sector." Ji Chang mentioned this and felt a lot of pain under his crotch. The army has always been a big consumer of food. When the war broke out, the food was continuously swallowed with wide mouths. He has to say something clearly: "The Hans had to drive out Hulu in order. The counties and counties in Shan 1 East recovered early and resumed production first. The rest of the Central Plains rely on the central government to adjust the grain supply market."

Liu Yan knows this psychology very well. When the grain is harvested or bought, only a small part of it can be stored, and more are directly mobilized and supplied to all parties. As a result, the grain in his hand looks extremely worrying, at all. It is impossible to store any strategic reserves of grain.

The Central Plains has been repeatedly scoured by the Husmen of various ethnic groups. The sharp decline in population is one of them. The Huhus are really turning the Central Plains into pastures. Most of the farmlands opened up by the ancestors of Zhuxia are deserted. It will take time to restore farming and lack of sufficient labor. , There is almost no irrigation system, and there is also a lack of production tools, which poses a big problem for the restoration of production.

In the past three years, the central government has repeatedly emphasized the dredging of the original irrigation system. Local people who are able to move, whether they are serving in servitude or being hired, are doing this, and a large number of slaves are also being put into this work.

Most people are working with enthusiasm, thinking that the irrigation system should be repaired and there should be fertile fields, but the sky does not want people to live in peace. The central plains ushered in a drought, and the drought will inevitably follow the locust plague. .

Even in modern times, there is no good way to deal with droughts. Even if a drought is detected in advance, it is useless to store water in reservoirs. The water that is not a reservoir at all will not be absorbed or evaporated by the stratum, and the water in the reservoir will also Only the same subsystem can be transported to the place where it is needed. What can be remedied is to transport the water from the area where there is no shortage of water to the water conservancy system originally constructed. (The South-to-North Water Diversion is for this purpose)

If you want to build a system for allocating water sources, it is really not something that can be done in an era without machinery. Think about the manpower and time that Emperor Shi used to build Dujiangyan, and then look at how many people were killed and injured by Yang Guang, who was impatient in digging a canal, knowing that the scalp numbness was indispensable in the process.

If he can prepare well in advance, Liu Yan will just bite his teeth and do it. The big deal is to be mentally prepared to die hundreds of thousands of slaves. The problem is that when he had that time, the Central Plains was not under his rule. Waiting for him to dominate the Central Plains is not enough time. Faced with a large-scale drought, only minimal remedial measures can be taken. The following investigations have proved that those measures are not available. For birds.

"There is no tax in the Central Plains this year. It is only calculated in the South... I am afraid it is difficult to guarantee the need." Ji Chang did not say that the South will increase taxes. The South has only been included in the rule for two years. It is the critical moment to clean up the hearts of the people. It is obviously detrimental to the southerners’ renunciation of morality: “Fortunately, there is no large-scale warfare between the big men, and most of the army’s food consumption can be eliminated, and more food can be invested in large-scale work-for-work projects.”

When Liu Yan was about to speak, Cui Zong came to tell Xu Zheng, Ran Min, and Huan Wen to see him.

The military’s large-scale warfare has basically stopped, and most of the high-ranking generals who are serious about it may not return to the center. If it is not for the responsibility of supervising and working for relief, it is indispensable to go to the horse Zhangtai and play cockfights. dog.

The three of them had just attended the Great Dynasty Meeting, and they were wearing martial arts corsets, not uniforms. They entered the back hall, approached and lined up, saluted Liu Yan respectfully, and then stared at Ji Chang.

"Is the prime minister talking about the storage of supplies?" Ran Min didn't wait for Ji Chang to give any response, and said with a grin: "We discussed it with the military and thought it was reasonable for the military to keep the supplies and allocate them inappropriate. Belongs to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Xu Zheng kept nodding his head, and said openly, "It should be so, it should be so. I will only kill Yingye when I wait for the warriors, so how can I live so meticulously."

Ji Chang was just a little bit annoyed when he was stared inexplicably. After hearing what Xu Zheng and Ran Min said, he was a little surprised and called Qu: "Chang and the king discussed the reserve of the Han, and never talked about it."

The response from the three military leaders to Ji Chang was "hahaha...", the expression on his face clearly meant he didn't believe it.

The original thing, the military is really killing people, arson and killing people in the wild, herdsmen and material management, deployment, etc. are the affairs of civilians. The speed of the Han army's recovery to various places is fast enough. At present, Han has a large number of military areas, even if it is a last resort in troubled times, but no matter how it is calculated, it is going to cross the border~lightnovelpub.net~ a large-scale natural disaster is about to occur, the king wants To prepare for disaster relief, as long as it has a relationship with the people from ancient times to the present, it seems to be handled by the civilian system, and the military will be admitted only under extremely special conditions. What must be said is that the civil service system is generally messed up, and the disaster relief has made the local people unable to survive, causing chaos, and the military's appearance is to kill people.

"Who's work, who will do it." Ran Min wants to carry it through to the end, no matter how good his words are and whether he should say: "You can rest assured that you have so many materials, but if you don't worry about it, please ask the king. We took it back to our fate. We thought about it for a moment, and wondered how the food was not enough because we only depended on the output of the big man. We should kill and grab it, and we count as much as we can grab."

Liu Yan understood that the three big military leaders were unable to calm down, and the military was not reconciled to use only two standing armies for the war. What he wanted was the way to make merits and careers.

Ji Chang said weakly: "Indochina Peninsula is a colony of various families..."

"We don't go there to blend in." Ran Min looked at Liu Yan kindly, and said thiefly: "What about the Liang family and the Chen family? Are there a large number of countries to the north of them? The king also said, The Ganges River basin on the other side of Ah San is a large grain-producing area. Now that the big man is short of food and the food at home is not enough, I think we should grab a handful of Ah San."

Ah San is also the place that Liu Yan has designated for the domestic folks to spend fun in, but now it’s a bit supportive after eating the Indochina Peninsula. Before digesting it, he can’t stretch his hand over. It is expected to wait several years or even decades. .

"Didn't that strait be found?" Xu Zheng also looked like a thief. "The ministers thought that if they were not familiar with cross-sea operations, they would not destroy the nation's subjugation. However, plundering with suitable troops is very difficult. suitable."

At this moment, Liu Yan looked at Ji Chang and felt that he should take a closer look.
