Interstellar Farmer

Lord, I would also like to ask, after the war against Siger is over, will the army retain its current strength or expand again?

Retention shows that Han really wants to cultivate and make a living for a period of time, because with half of Sige's territory and the secret inventories of some countries that can definitely be obtained, there will not be much problem in feeding these troops. Moreover, the territory will suddenly change. It is so big that it really requires so many troops to maintain its rule; and choosing to expand again shows that Han really wants to make persistent efforts to break out of Sige to seize larger and more territory. The consequences of the two options are completely different, which will lead to changes in more military and administrative measures.

Think so far! Well, Han Zhen said after thinking for a while: After this time, there will be no increase in troops for a long time. At most, the number of battleships will be kept at about 400 million, and the number of transport ships will be kept at around 400 million. At 600 million, I think that should be enough. What do you think?

Very good, very good! Du Guosheng immediately agreed. It seemed that he was a little frightened by Han Zhen's behavior before asking. Han Zhen's recent series of activities are typical of militarism, because today's Han family simply does not have the ability to support more than 300 million warships and nearly 400 million transport ships. It can be done after obtaining half of Sig's territory, but if Han Zhen If something like today happens again, it's doubtful whether Du Guosheng's heart can still bear it.

There are too many problems involved in military expansion. Du Guosheng is most concerned about the supply issue. As far as the current West is concerned, its financial resources are strong enough, but after manufacturing and owning more than one billion warships, with the efforts of the whole country, it can only last for fifty years at most. If it is in a wartime state , the maximum that can be guaranteed is only five years! This is also the fundamental reason why no country will expand its military strength without limit.

Don't think so crazy about me, I have a sense of proportion! Han Zhen accidentally saw what Du Guosheng was thinking, smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, As for the number of battleships, the Han family only maintains this number. ! The future development direction will be on the performance of battleships, while the total number remains unchanged, so that the performance of battleships will be greatly improved!

Perhaps among countries and forces of the same level and level, the more battleships the better, but this is not the case for the Han family. Its future enemies will be those seven-level powers whose battleship performance is too high. If it is bad, no matter how many battleships there are, they will be of no use; and when there are too many, supply, logistics, maintenance and other issues will be correspondingly very troublesome. It is better to use limited resources to build a small but high-performance force. It will be more cost-effective to come out.

Han Zhen has seen the world, and he has this understanding even more after learning some information about the seventh-level powers when he was in Mengkong. Generally speaking, a seventh-level power, well, let's take the Masuo Empire as an example, it maintains a small number of conventional warships, only about 200 million. When it enters wartime, it can expand the number to 700 million. Up to the sky. This number is not as high as West is about to reach, and the number of people required for a seventh-level battleship is very small, less than a thousand people - after using some high-end robots to supplement it, a few hundred people will operate the battleship. No problem at all!

But from another aspect, the performance of the battleships owned by the seventh-level powers and the battleships below the fifth level are two different concepts. This can no longer be offset by quantity. Even if the number of West's top four-type royal battleships is Reaching one billion, but in front of a cluster of 50 million Qingya battleships, there is no advantage at all, and it can even be described as vulnerable. There is still a big gap between level six and level seven battleships, but they are much stronger than those below level five. At least the huge gap in numbers can be offset, but level seven countries are not the only ones with battleships. When reaching the status of a seventh-level civilization, the real trump card is the ultimate weapon such as interstellar satellites. The strength of a seventh-level country no longer depends on the number of battleships, but on the number of satellites. A country with a fleet of ships With the existence of cooperating satellites, even if the number of level six battleships is ten times that of the opponent, there is no doubt that the final result will be victory for the satellite side.

It's useless. Han Zhen had this idea when he looked at the second-level troops now, and it became more and more intense. If the number of satellites was not too small, or if the number of first-level troops was too small, Han Zhen would not be able to defend the captured territory when entering the war. I really don’t want to arm this kind of warship anymore! The difference can only be seen through comparison, and Han Zhen felt particularly deeply.

The complete restructuring of the military department is about to start, and it will affect the whole body. Du Guosheng, the great butler, finally seized the opportunity to report his own government affairs to Han Zhen. This is even more cumbersome and impossible to complete in a short time. , even one or two years may not be able to solve all problems: such as personnel problems after the rapid expansion of various departments, management problems of newly acquired planets, acceptance of mining areas and subsequent supervision problems, factory restart problems, immigration problems Placement... blah blah blah.

Most of the things here can be solved by Han Zhen in one sentence: You can handle it yourself. If you want to mobilize someone to help you, then just mobilize them directly. Just give it to anyone such as Youli or Angman afterwards. Just send a letter! However, when it came to the implementation of the decree, Du Guosheng pointed out that the current family model had its shortcomings, and it was best to consider establishing a national system. Han Zhen did not dare to deal with it casually.

The Han family is a family. No matter how big it is or how similar it is to a country, it cannot eliminate the fact that it uses a family system to rule. Although Du Guosheng and others are prime ministers and Han Zhen's ministers, in essence , or within the scope of retainers; the name of the family and the name of the country will give people completely different feelings. The establishment of a country will create a strong cohesion, especially for other families who want to join the Han family, and can unite them well...

Let me think about it, I will come up with a resolution on this matter as soon as possible. After Han Zhen sent Du Guosheng away, he sat quietly in the command room of the flagship.

Du Guosheng was not the first to propose the establishment of a country, nor would he be the last. Wan Longjun proposed it more than 20 years ago, but the environment at that time was different from now. It does not matter whether a country is established or not. Influence, and using the name of the Han family to lead the rise of the Chinese clan would be more convenient and faster. In the following years, Ziegler, William and others also raised this issue, but Han Zhen also rejected it, thinking that the time had not yet come; but today, the date for establishing a country has come!

What the hell, why are you thinking so much! Just build a country, build a country, and it's time for the Chinese to establish a country! Han Zhen quickly figured it out, Well, the Chinese, what else is more beautiful than the name of China? Okay? Okay, it’s the country of China! As for the system, of course it’s the imperial system, the Chinese Empire!”

Han Zhen always acted vigorously and resolutely. Once he made a decision, he would start immediately. Of course, the establishment of a country cannot be established today or tomorrow. There are many things to do. At least it must wait until the interstellar satellite comes back and the military reorganization is basically completed. In this way, it will take at least three years. However, Han Zhen needs to formulate specific plans first. Next, the political system must first come up with a plan for discussion. No, the place Han Zhen went to was the Institute of History and Government. He first assigned them tasks and then handed them over to them for collection and processing.

Han Zhen knew about the founding of the country from the first time he went to West, so when formulating the family system, he paid great attention to dealing with one of the sources of chaos in the universe: the problem of the nobility!

All the nobles of the Han family can never have a territory that exceeds one-tenth of the area of ​​a planet; the combined territories of all subordinate families cannot exceed the area of ​​a planet based on the Earth as the standard; in terms of rewards, most of them are based on Share dividends are the main focus, and factory holdings also have very strict restrictions; in terms of private soldiers, any private soldiers that are not owned by the royal family must not exceed one-tenth of the planet's defense fleet, and a defense fleet with the largest number It will not reach 100,000; the military system is absolutely independent, and no family or force is allowed to interfere for any purpose. The only object of allegiance to the military is the Han clan chief, who will be the future emperor;...

These are all measures taken by Han Zhen to prevent the nobility from becoming too big. The problem of who makes the nobility grow too big is too difficult to prevent? Almost all the countries that Han Zhen knows today have the problem of big nobles losing their tails. Maybe in the few generations after the founding of the country, this problem was very small or even non-existent, but as time goes by and some confused emperors appear, this kind of problem will The situation will slowly emerge. The longer it goes, the more obvious it becomes. The final outcome will be either a comeback or a split. On this issue, the William family has done very well and has a lot to learn from. Although there were seven powerful families who rebelled last time, if the William family is given some more time, maybe these seven families will also become the William family. of attachment.

William can do it, why can’t he? Moreover, his conditions are better than William's, and the entire empire will be built completely according to his own intentions, killing this problem from the beginning! Although it is still unclear how many generations it can last, one thing is certain, that is, when he is in power, there will never be any nobles to cause trouble! What's even more interesting is that I don't know how many years my life span will be... Thinking of this, Han Zhen's face became a little weird, which made the researchers around him very uneasy when they saw it.
