People say that when a cannon fires, gold will be worth tens of thousands of taels. There are probably two completely opposite meanings: one is that the war is very expensive and the burden is heavy, and the other is that the war is rich.

For the Xia dynasties of all dynasties, this sentence is more about being inexpensive.

For example, when 100,000 soldiers are used to fight, how many civilians are needed to be recruited, how much food and money are allocated. All aspects of the problem involve. Often, if you win, you will lose money and lose even more if you lose.

To put it bluntly, the deep-seated reason behind this is that social productivity cannot keep up.

The establishment of a dynasty began at the beginning, with 1,800 people, 30,50 spears and big swords, following a wise master, the stronger he fought, the stronger he became, the richer he fought, until he gained the entire Shenzhou. This can be seen as a process of making money in war.

However, at this stage, it is already the peak. After the peak, it will decline. After the country is established and the territory is established, the foreign wars of feudal dynasties are often no longer aimed at expanding territory and making war wealth, but are mostly a war to resist foreign aggression and eliminate external hidden dangers.

So the harvest is gone, only efforts are given.

The reason is social productivity - because in terms of social productivity at that time, the dynasty could no longer rule a wider and larger territory. Once war exceeds the upper limit of social productivity, there will be no profit.

Therefore, when the Xia Dynasty was at its peak, many victories were won. Logically, the country should have expanded accordingly, but it did not. For example, how many years had the war against the barbarians in the northern grasslands been fought? After that, after the battle, the army was withdrawn without any actual benefits and abandoned them like a piece of grass. So the land was returned to the enemy and continued to fight when the enemy became stronger.

If there is a strong social productivity as a backing, for example, during a foreign war, there is no need to mobilize too many civilians, the time for transporting materials can be greatly shortened, and the cost will be greatly reduced.

Mobilize 100,000 troops and recruit countless civilians. In a war, the number of participants in direct combat is actually several times or even ten times. The food and grass that needs to be allocated must be allocated according to the standard of several times and ten times, and then deduct excessive losses during the long transportation, allocate civilians to destroy the civilian ecology, etc. How can the war be profitable?

Emperor Wu of Han defeated the Xiongnu, but the Han Dynasty also weakened accordingly. Emperor Yang of Sui attacked Goguryeo three times, causing the country to be destroyed and the family to be destroyed. Li Shimin, who was behind, did not make much good decisions.

Imagine what would happen if there were railways, trains, and planes at that time? If there is any information on the frontier, you can reach the center in an instant. What would happen? What would happen if you could not finish eating the food production? Will the land you have captured be abandoned like a piece of grass?

Absolutely not.

Of course, this is still early for Ying Yi.

At this stage, Ying Yi was in the first stage of making money in war. Therefore, after the Northern Expedition destroyed Ming and took over Hebei, his profits far exceeded his efforts.

In Ying Yi, these are two aspects.

The first most intuitive thing is the harvest of wealth, such as gold and silver, population, and land.

The second is the great gains related to humanitarian programs and real spirits at a higher level.

As for wealth, just talking about gold and silver. If there is only one capital, the value of gold, silver and jewelry seized is more than 150 million taels of silver. If converted into new coins, it is 15 billion yuan.

This is just pure gold and silver. Other additional items, such as houses, shops, grain, and various materials, will be quadrupled.

As for the population, the statistics have not been completed yet. However, the total population in the entire Hebei land is expected to be more than five times the total population in Henan, that is, more than 35 million people. This is the lower limit. The actual population should exceed this number.

As for the land, there is no need to say more.

In terms of human energy and the capture of true spirits, the harvest is even more visible.

Ying Yi

Physical: 16

Soul:11

True Spirit: 8

Root nature: No

True Spirit Number: 310000

Humanitarian number: 10000000

Humanitarian List Quota: 5000000

Number of people on the list: 100,000

This is the general data.

Why do you say it is general? Because in addition to Ying Yi’s own data, other real spirit numbers, humanitarian qi numbers, quotas and number of people on the list are all continuing to increase.

After Henan, Ying Yi's human energy gained reached millions. After the Northern Expedition to destroy the Ming Dynasty and defeat the Eastern Barbarians, it instantly increased by five or six million, and it grew rapidly in the process of clearing out various places, and it had already exceeded tens of millions at this time.

Correspondingly, the humanitarian list quota has exceeded five million.

This is extremely terrifying. In other words, Ying Yi can list the names of five million people on the humanitarian list to benefit them and completely control them in Ying Yi's hands.

Ying Yi was short of the quota at the beginning, and even the army could not be on the list. But now, the quota of vacant places has exceeded the number of people who can be on the list.

After the military expansion is completed, after the Hebei ground is completely cleaned and a complete ruling institution is established, it should be able to exceed 300,000 people on the list, but compared with the vacant quota, even one-tenth of the number is not enough.

For Ying Yi, the number of people on the humanitarian list is definitely enough. The number of people on the list will definitely be controlled below a level line. Because this involves the issue of feedback from the true spirit - too many people on the list, and the number of people on the list is absolutely insufficient, it is difficult to reflect the benefits of being on the list.

True Spirit Number is the energy source of major solutions and is the most important thing.

Ying Yi also thought about this issue quite deeply and got some vague inspiration from the great characters, but it cannot be realized for the time being.

If you can only obtain the true spirit number by killing, this is not the way to heaven. Killing, even if you kill all other creatures on the earth, the true spirit number will always be exhausted.

Fortunately, Ying Yi has received enlightenment. The time should not be far away from the second way to obtain the true spirit.

After July, with the smooth progress of the purge and the smooth follow-up of the Madison Yuan and the Imperial Court, all related new policies gradually rolled out, and Ying Yi began to gradually delegate power.

The general direction has been established and is on the right track. Ying Yi should also be relieved from the complicated affairs.

On the first day of the seventh month, Ying Yi issued a royal edict, and moved the former dynasty Emperor Chongzhen and his concubines to the outside of the palace, and gave him the "Mingfu" to live there. He also gave him 100,000 yuan in money and 1,000 acres of land. He gave him eunuchs who were willing to continue to follow Zhu Youjian, such as Wang Chengen, and placed the family properly.

Ying Yi was not harsh on Zhu Youjian. After the Ming Dynasty was destroyed, Zhu Youjian was no longer the emperor's emperor, but lived under Ying Yi's rule as an ordinary citizen with a special status. He was given a thousand acres of land and 100,000 summer coins, which was not harsh and generally favored.

Ying Yi also made corresponding arrangements for the original palace maids and eunuchs in the palace.

Naturally, if Daxia is established, there is no need for the eunuchs to continue to exist. However, the existing eunuchs cannot be abandoned at will. These people are released without a support for life, and are even discriminated against and harmed. Therefore, Ying Yi planned to use this group of eunuchs for the time being, after all, they are very familiar with the etiquette and rules in the palace. However, after the establishment of Daxia, it will not continue to increase.

Ying Yi does not discriminate against eunuchs, but he does not like it. In comparison, palace maids are always more pleasing to the eye than eunuchs, right?

In the future, female officials will definitely be the main ones in the harem.

The resettlement of Zhu Youjian has come to an end for the time being. When the Daxia Yuan Dynasty is established, the final conclusion will be made.
Chapter completed!
