Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 325

"Officials, there are already [-] soldiers in Hejian County. Maybe the Fei Army is about to expand."

"According to the standard set by the government, there are more than [-] recruits in Hejian County, which meets the standard." Yue Fei said with a little embarrassment.

Zhao Huan predicted that the number of qualified soldiers would exceed his expectations. He thought that there would be about [-] qualified soldiers to burn incense, but Yue Fei told him that there were more than [-] qualified soldiers.

Armored in clothing, wielding a five-stone crossbow, fifty negative arrows, put the dagger on it, crowned and wearing a sword, win three days' food, and travel a hundred miles in the middle of the day.

Zhao Huan slightly changed the standard of Wei Wuzu, but this standard is still an extremely high standard for the Imperial Army of the Song Dynasty.

It will take five days to complete this day by day, with light armor.

As a result, Yue Fei told him that out of the 10 people recruited by the prefectures to Hejian County, [-] soldiers reached the standard, which made Zhao Huan look at Yue Fei suspiciously.

There was a precedent in the Song Dynasty for empty pay, and Zhao Huan knew about it a long time ago.

Could it be that?
It shouldn't be. When Yue Fei was under Zhao Gou, he had never been paid for nothing in his life. The situation at that time was hundreds of times worse than it is now, and Yue Fei could hold the bottom line.

Now it should not be emulating the old practice to engage in corruption.

But this is a total of [-] soldiers, which is the strength of six standard divisions!
It doesn't look like a lot, but if you count the auxiliary soldiers on the battlefield and the civilian husbands responsible for transporting military supplies, there are at least 20 soldiers and civilians.

With the strength of six divisions, can he, Zhao Gou, still jump to this day?
"Are there really so many soldiers up to the standard?" Zhao Huan asked incredulously.

Yue Fei nodded and said: "The general wrote a letter, this is the establishment, and there is a list of officers at all levels. There is also a box of rosters, which have been confirmed and meet the requirements of the new army that the officials said. A total of [-] the rest."

"So after the final assessment, it will exceed [-]. And it must be exceeded. Officials, what should we do with these people who exceed?" Yue Fei asked.

In this matter, he originally wanted to raise the standard, but this standard is actually very strict.

It really can't be higher. In Yue Fei's view, the highest limit of ordinary people is just that.

After all, not everyone is a strongman.In the end, I had to hand over this issue to the officials.

Zhao Huan was very hesitant. The [-] flying army had already stretched the finances of the Song Dynasty treasury, and they wanted to spend money from internal funds?
"Zhao knows, how much money is there?" Zhao Huan turned his head and asked.

If there is no money in the internal funds, then the extra 3 people can only make other arrangements.

"Official family, if the official family hadn't returned the silver donated by the Wa Kingdom to the national treasury, we would still have tens of millions of guan in our internal funds, but now we only have 9000 million guan." Zhao Ying's face was full of depression.

Originally, Ping Qingsheng brought a boatload of silver, if it could be returned to the internal funds, Zhao Ying could change the method to turn the 800 million silver into 2000 million yuan, and fill the internal funds.

It's a pity that the officials returned the silver to the treasury, which made Zhao Ying extremely depressed.

Zhao Ying with only 9000 million pens?Do you know that this is a lot of money!
Zhao Huan didn't pay much attention to this idiot Zhao Ying. If you have more money, it's just a number.

"In the accounts reported by the province last time, the 55 Flying Army's estimated monthly salary is 110 guan, and the monthly ration is 20 shi, right? If it is [-], the monthly salary is [-] million guan, and the monthly ration is [-] shi."

Zhao Huan did the math and felt dizzy.

The money in his hand, 9000 million guan, seems to be able to support it for a long time, but you must know that Zhao Huan does not just want to support this flying army.

The Qin Feng Army, Yongding Army, and Yongxing Army still maintain a scale of 20, defending the Jinren and Xixia in the border areas. Although the treasury is now able to make ends meet.

This group of troops doesn't have to worry about themselves now.

But if he was a little careless, if something happened, Li Gang would have to ask Zhao Huan for money.

In fact, these 9000 million pens may seem like a lot, but the speed of spending them is still too fast.

You have to open up avenues of wealth.

But to support [-] flying troops, some money and food from the internal funds can also be afforded.

Zhao Huan suddenly felt a cold wind blowing into the palace, he shivered suddenly, it's only September, why is there a cold wind?
It was the dog days, and if it wasn't for the air-conditioning in Wende Hall, Zhao Huan felt that he would not be comfortable working every day.

Originally, the Hall of Wende was not very hot through the ingenious design, and with the ice from the ice mirror, the temperature of the Hall of Wende has always been okay.

But this gust of cold wind made Zhao Huan shiver.

What's going on here?
[Reminder of historical events: Mr. Zhu Kezhen's "Preliminary Research on Climate Change in China in the Past 5000 Years" and the graph of the oxygen-18 content of Greenland's ice layer both show that from the spring of 1127 to the autumn of 1279, the temperature in Zhongzhou experienced a relatively large drop in temperature , generally lower than the temperature of future generations, about 2°C lower, please pay attention. 】

What's going on with this system?Playing with the weather forecast for yourself?
Zhao Huan suddenly felt that his system was not a waste, but rather caring, and he felt a cold wind. He directly told himself that the temperature dropped sharply. Should he remind himself to wear woolen pants?

Wait a moment……

A 2°C drop in temperature?No kidding!
The result of the sharp drop in temperature is agricultural production, large-scale production reduction, increased natural disasters, and social unrest!
It will also lead to a decrease in precipitation, a decrease in the area of ​​farming, and a southward shift of the dividing line between agriculture and animal husbandry.

Fuck!Zhao Huan fell into an ice cave.

God!And it is a long-term natural disaster!
How can Ming Dynasty be gone?
There were countless uprisings in the late Ming Dynasty, which had a lot to do with the weather disasters during the Fourth Little Ice Age.

How did Fang La rebel?The direct cause was the Jiangnan earthquake in the second year of Xuanhe.

Although Zhao Huan looked at the graph, it was not as intense as the last years of the Ming Dynasty, and the temperature was a little higher, but it was enough to drink a pot by himself.

He was still thinking about building a flying army, but God gave him a big surprise.

"The quota of the flying army has increased, as many as there are, and all of them will be included in the flying army."

Zhao Huan finally decided to bring all the soldiers under his command.

The extra [-] flying troops must be taken into their own hands no matter what.Natural disasters are natural disasters, but Zhao Huan cannot artificially create man-made disasters.

Since Zhao Huan made a promise, it must be fulfilled, otherwise the emperor's reputation will collapse, then how will he conscript?

After passing the assessment, it is ten acres of land!Wouldn't it be self-inflicted to pass but not use it?
Zhao Huan didn't want more bandits to appear in Da Song.

Isn't that just doubling the consumption?As long as you can make money in a proper way, you will naturally not be afraid of this challenge.

As for natural disasters, there is no need to consider them.

People's lives will be better than when the weather is warmer, not worse.

In fact, the harm of man-made disasters is far greater than natural disasters, and the exploitation of the people by brokers and exiles is not more terrifying than natural disasters?
Especially this kind of weather disaster, as long as it is handled properly, it can fully withstand it.

Isn't it just the southward shift of cultivated land?
It’s really not possible to resort to military force, just fix the poisonous areas.

As long as the mind does not slip, there are more solutions than difficulties.

Zhao Huan was also stunned by this natural disaster and unexpected event at the first time, but after thinking about it carefully later, it was not a big deal.

As long as we can unite as one, what difficulties can we not overcome?

Zhao Huan suddenly felt that by taking advantage of the financial calamity to equalize the land, he actually transferred the threat and risks caused by natural disasters to all the people in the world.

In this way, the pressure is much less!
