contend

Chapter 595
Fengsa, Taiyuan, Huayin, and Lantian four army towns, each with a strength of [-] to [-] troops.

Almost one hundred thousand troops dispersed.

Yang Zheng's Qin State inherited the old system of Cao Wei and adopted the strategy of the Chinese army cooperating with the local government soldiers.

There are [-] elite infantry and cavalry in Chang'an, and about [-] government soldiers in all places.

In every county in the interior, there are [-] soldiers in charge of guarding the place.

For example, Hequ, Xiping, Jincheng, Tianshui, Longxi, Nan'an, Anding, Fufeng, etc., and the seven counties of Bajun, Guanghan, Shujun, Qianwei, Yuejuan, and Zangang in central Shu were also like this, while Nanzhong was basically in a state of restraint, and the government Only control some elite areas, garrison heavily, rule the local area with the powerful, and promote Sinicization, Qin can reduce investment in these areas.

The current state of Qin does not have the ability and energy to invest in these areas, and people are needed everywhere, so these areas can only be delayed.

And some important frontier areas, such as Luntai, Gaochang, Dunhuang, Zhangye, Jiuquan, Wuwei, Shuofang, Beidi, Jiuyuan, etc., each had three to four folds to deter the grasslands and the interior.

Finally, there are strategically important places to plant, such as Taiyuan, Dingxiang, Yunzhong, Fengsa, Jingzhao, Hanzhong, and Yong'an, where Zhechongfu gathers.

About [-] government soldiers are obviously not enough.

The future is a battle for the destiny of the East and the West. It is not surprising that Sima Zhao implemented the land occupation system, administered a dose of strong aphrodisiac to himself, and created an army of 50 million.

So military expansion is necessary.

In Yang Zheng's mind, there are about 20 government soldiers, and the Chinese army will also expand to [-].

Among them, Guanzhong gathered [-] government soldiers and [-] Chinese troops. In addition, there were [-] Chinese troops in Taiyuan, [-] Chinese troops in Shuzhong, and [-] Chinese troops in Hanzhong and Guzang.

The estimated population of Qin State is about 500 million.

500 million people support 30 troops, the burden is not big.

Moreover, the 20 government soldiers do not need the support of the central government. They are given land, no land tax, and no corvee. They support themselves, and they bring their own equipment, horses, food and grass when they go out...

In other words, Qin only needs to support one hundred thousand Chinese troops.

This is the significance of Tuntian Division.

It is like using slaves and farmland to raise a [-] army, as well as the taxes to be paid to govern the people, and the commercial tax in the Hexi Corridor. In addition, the three major ranches in Liangzhou, Hehuang, and Hetao are also supporting the [-] Chinese army.

From Yang Zheng down, the whole country practiced frugality and curbed the trend of extravagance.

The Qin Palace was also rebuilt on the basis of the original Zhengxi General's Mansion. The scale is not large, and the eunuch also directly took the old man Liu Chan...

There are not so many carnivores and interest groups in Qin State. Relatively speaking, the burden on the people is not as great as that of Jin and Wu.

Yang Zheng can also make the [-] Chinese Army take the path of elite soldiers.

60.00 cavalry, 30.00 infantry, [-]% wearing leather armor, [-]% iron armor, [-]% cold forging armor, cavalry strives to have three horses per man, and two horses per infantry.

A total of 26 war horses.

The focus of Qin's consumption is not on the soldiers, but on these war horses.

If you want to maintain your physical strength, you have to prepare fine materials for them.

However, over the past few years, Mobei horses have reproduced wantonly in the three major ranches, which relieved a lot of pressure.

Mobei horses do not have strong explosive power, but they have strong endurance, are cold-resistant, easy to feed, and can be fed grass, and intensive feeding is better.

Mobei horses accounted for [-]% of the army, and the proportion was still increasing.

Hehuang horses and Liangzhou horses with strong explosive power are used for heavy riding and fine riding.

"Taiyuan, Huayin, and Lantian are narrow, not enough to support [-] Chinese troops and more than [-] government soldiers." Wei Guan said after thinking for a long time.

Yang Zheng's idea is very good, but there are problems in its implementation.

It is indeed a lot of pressure to squeeze the [-]% Chongfu into places like Huayin and Lantian.

1 government soldiers, that is, 1 families, need 240 million mu of land, not to mention Huayin and Lantian, even Taiyuan is under great pressure.

Without solving the worries of the soldiers, how can they fight bravely on the front line?
Yang Zheng said: "If there is not enough land for the army soldiers, it will be allocated to the rear. If there is not enough land in Taiyuan, it can be allocated to Dingxiang, Yanmen, and Yunzhong. If Huayin is not enough, it will be allocated to Weinan and other places. If there is not enough land, the difference will be allocated by Chang'an. make up."

The food for the Chinese army must be provided by Chang'an.

The financial power must be in the hands, otherwise the Chinese army is not the Chinese army.

Wei Guan nodded.

In fact, after the population of Shuzhong moved to Guanzhong, these problems are no longer a problem.

"My lord, my concubine invites Your Highness to have dinner." A female official's voice came from outside the hall.

Before I knew it, the day passed and night fell.

Wei Guan cupped his hands and said, "I will leave."

Yang Zheng originally wanted to stay with him for dinner and continue the discussion, but Xia Houzhi was so courteous that he had nothing to do, so he must have a lot to say, so it would be inconvenient for outsiders to be present.

"Come here, escort Boyu back home." After the assassin incident, Yang Zheng was extremely concerned about security.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wei Guan cupped his hands and walked away.

Yang Zheng stretched his waist and returned to the Houfu.

Xia Houzhi took Yang Xu to welcome him with a lantern, and before he knew it, his son Yang Xu was already four years old.

Inheriting all the advantages of Xiahou's family, he was carved out of jade at a young age, and he is extremely intelligent.

"Ah Weng!" After a long distance, Yang Xu bowed his hands in a dignified salute.

Yang Zheng stepped forward quickly and picked her up.

"Xu'er met her husband, so the concubine took the liberty to invite her." Xia Houzhi also spoke strangely, and was quite formal. Normally, she often showed her temper as a talented woman, and when she disagreed with her, she just rolled her eyes arrogantly.

"What's a family talking about?" Yang Zheng laughed.

Xia Houzhi hesitated to speak, but smiled, her eyes were obedient.

It made Yang Zheng a little uncomfortable.

During this period of time, I was busy with equalizing the land, and I lived in the government office for food and lodging, so I really neglected my family.

However, Xia Houzhi and Xia Houzhi have been acquainted with each other for more than ten years.

With a move in my heart, I suddenly knew why she came here.

The boss Yang Yi has made outstanding military exploits and has his own wings in the army.

The second child, Yang Wu, was farming in Shuofang and had a good relationship with Yang Xiao, Yang Ji and others.

Even Yang Hong, the youngest, has a good relationship with Ji Kang, Yang Hu and other celebrities.

Xia Houzhi must have felt the pressure.

The power of Cao Wei fell to one side, and the root cause was that the battle for the heir apparent was too fierce.

Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and Cao Zhang.

Even Cao Chong back then died inexplicably.

After Cao Pi succeeded to the throne, he deeply felt the threat from his brothers and frantically suppressed the clan, causing the Cao family's talents to wither. Except for Cao Mao, none of them could come in handy.

We had to reuse external branches like Cao Shuang and Xia Houxuan...

But Cao Shuang's bullying of the royal family is not inferior to outsiders.

It is better to determine some things earlier, lest other people have thoughts that should not be raised.

It is better for the state of Qin and the clan if the status is determined earlier.

The same is true of Yang Zheng's assassination this time. If something happened to Yang Zheng, Qin would immediately fall apart.

"I was negligent." Yang Zheng stroked Yang Xu's head.

The little guy giggled.

Yang Zheng stared into his eyes and said half-truthfully, "What will Xu'er plan to be in the future? General, prime minister, or farmer?"

Although Xia Houzhi next to her was also smiling, her eyes were extremely tense.

"It's not good, I want to be the King of Qin just like Ah Weng!" The little guy said seriously.

Yang Zheng glanced at Xia Houzhi. Xia Houzhi must have taught this. A four-year-old child would not have such a strong logical ability. Yang Zheng gave the general, prime minister and farmer, and he chose the King of Qin himself.

Shaking his head, he said, "It's not easy to be king of Qin, it will be very hard. Is Xu'er afraid of hard work?"

"Not afraid! Father is not afraid, and Xu'er is not afraid either!" The little face was extremely serious.

The last sentence may have been taught by Xia Houzhi, but this sentence is definitely not.

Yang Zheng laughed loudly, "Okay!"

Xia Houzhi immediately beamed with joy, "Husband..."

In fact, as long as there is no problem with intelligence and character, abilities can be cultivated slowly. Yang Yi, Yang Wu, and Yang Hong all became talents from the youth camp, which shows that the youth camp is still good.

And the position of the son was originally his.
