During this period of time, Fei Qian was not idle in Guanzhong. After completing a phase of military operations, he decided to focus on internal affairs for a period of time and climb up the technology tree.
Of course, the first problem must still be farming. Because farming is almost equal to food and grass, and equal to soldiers.
The Chinese nation follows the agricultural route, so farming is naturally the stable foundation of the entire society, and the level of agricultural output depends largely on the progress of agricultural science and technology. Although Fei Qian has been doing this, in fact there are still
There is a lot of room for improvement.
The agricultural book of the new calendar with the twenty-four solar terms is currently being edited and engraved. It will begin to be disseminated in a month or two. This will play a very important role in improving the knowledge of farmers and promoting large-scale agricultural production.
Of course, there will be some minor adjustments according to the differences in climate in various places, but such an agricultural book can be said to be a pioneering work, at least in the Han Dynasty, it was an act that benefited thousands of families.
Many travelers seem to have returned to ancient times and have either mentioned agriculture in passing or not mentioned it at all. They do not consider regional differences at all, nor do they consider the cultivation between states and counties such as Sichuan, Shu, Guanzhong, Yuzhou and Youzhou.
The difference between Zhuang He and Zhuang He is as if these ordinary people can fill their stomachs by relying on gold, silver and copper from commerce...
Fei Qian has attached great importance to agriculture since he was in Pingyang. He even cheated at that time, well, it should be called mutual cooperation, and let the Southern Huns bear part of the animal power. Although it is a bit bad to use untrained oxen and horses to plow the fields, it is better than
Manpower is faster and more convenient, repairing water conservancy and transferring earthwork is also more effective than manpower.
At that time, there was a shortage of cultivated land in Bingzhou, so during the period when Fei Qian was in Bingzhou, he kept control of the overall military strength and did not dare to engage in military warfare, because the soldiers consumed too much money and food, and it was really unaffordable to have too many soldiers...
Of course, if we just follow the model of the princes in other places, regardless of quality, and only focus on quantity, even if the population of Bingzhou is sparse, we can still attract 30,000 to 40,000 people with a sweep. Who can't recruit strong men? But if it really is
That was done at that time, regardless of the quality of the soldiers. Now I am afraid that there will not be the prosperity of Bingzhou Pingyang, and agriculture will also suffer great damage.
This can be seen from the current situation in Yuzhou. When Yuan Shu arrived in Nanyang, there were plenty of warehouses. Yuan Shu waved his hand and bought, buy, buy. Even the surrounding yellow scarf barbarians fell at the feet of Yuan's father. However,
Wait until all the money is squandered...
Until now, with the two major grain-producing areas of Guanzhong, Sichuan and Shu, as well as the additions of Hanzhong and Hedong, plus the growing Yinshan area, Fei Qian could loosen some of the restrictions on soldiers and begin to expand the number of troops.
.
Now as a whole, Fei Qian's ordinary troops stationed in various places are mostly infantry, with only a small part of cavalry. The total number is about 40,000. Most of these soldiers are scattered in various counties.
, large counties have about one thousand, and small counties have about a few hundred. Only in prefectural areas, there are permanent mobile troops ranging from 3,000 to 5,000. Most of the troops and horses in these defensive areas are used to ensure local security.
, wipe out some bandits and bandits, etc., the combat effectiveness is average, and the logistics support is also average. It is better than before, but it is much worse than the real mobile field soldiers.
The treatment of soldiers stationed in the local area is one level higher than that of the troops under the command of various generals. These troops indirectly obey Fei Qian's command and dispatch. They usually move with the generals who command them, becoming the central force in regional operations, or
The locally trained teaching team is the core force during combat...
The ratio of infantry to cavalry in this part is about two to one, or three to one. Some generals prefer more cavalry, while others prefer more infantry. Each one is different. The overall number is 28,000.
People around.
As for the ones with the best treatment, naturally they are the soldiers and horses directly under Fei Qian, such as heavy armored infantry and heavy armored cavalry. These guys, including their men, their horses, and their attendants, consume money and food like water, and each time they report it for liquidation.
It always makes Fei Qian's body hurt so much, so only Fei Qian can support him, and ordinary generals really can't afford it. This group has the smallest number of people, with a total of only more than 8,000 people, plus about 4,000 attendants and assistants.
In terms of soldiers, there are 12,000. They are usually not used. They are used as direct guards and as a weapon on the battlefield.
In terms of overall quantity, compared to Yuan Shao and Cao Cao who easily commanded one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand, it is naturally much less, but the quality is much stronger. For example, it is like the same number of protoss units in the interstellar.
Humans and Zerg are not about population size, but simply the same number. Basically, if they fight head-on, a draw will be enough.
Of course, this is under the condition that the war will always only have one terrain, the plain, and the two sides will always only have the pure data of formation level A for comparison. In actual battles, there are many other factors, ranging from topography to as small as an iron on a horse's hoof.
Nail will lead to changes in the battle situation...
Therefore, the upper limit of agricultural development determines the upper limit of Feiqian's current number of soldiers. The upper limit of business determines the upper limit of Feiqian's potential military investment. As for the upper limit of industry, it naturally refers to weapons and other technologies.
The limit is reached...
The nobles in the Han Dynasty were not as aloof and repulsive towards business as those in later generations. Although they often talked about the smell of copper, they were very honest in their hearts. At the beginning of the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were quite a few wealthy merchants through marriages and attachments.
They took the initiative to form alliances with Confucian aristocratic families in order to get rid of their politically discriminated status. Therefore, there are very few wealthy families who do not engage in business, and there are also very few large businessmen who do not invest in politics. The reason why there is no such thing as Feiqian here
The Zhen family from Jizhou, or the Mi family who followed Liu Daer, took the initiative to seek refuge. That was because Guanzhong Bingzhou was already abolished and there were no big merchants...
However, several prominent surnames in central Sichuan have now sent their disciples to Guanzhong, and they have been posting up posts intentionally or unintentionally. It seems that they can no longer sit still.
Industry and commerce are not separated, because only with good products can business develop smoothly. Therefore, Fiji’s investment in industry is also very high, such as paper making workshops, oil pressing workshops, coal cake workshops, blacksmithing workshops, weaving workshops, etc.
etc., basically all involved, and it also triggered the copycat industry of many nobles. In the Han Dynasty, when there was no concept of copyright, as long as someone figured it out, someone would naturally imitate it.
Therefore, in Guanzhong, in Chang'an City, there are not only some noble surnames under Fei Qian's rule, but also some noble children from Shandong. Although they do not express their opinions, they will also introduce some new things that appear here to Fei Qian.
Pass it back in various ways...
In a sense, Feiqian's actions are also trying to seize the market.
Another important thing is the education and domestication of the Hu people. In this aspect, Fei Qian is relatively successful, just like the Southern Huns. If there are no changes or setbacks in the future, the Southern Huns will
They will be completely domesticated and integrated into China. By that time, the Southern Huns will also become Han people, and there will be no big difference.
In the next step, Fei Qian will gradually disperse and separate some Qiang and Southern Huns in the form of land rewards or encouragement of separation, leaving these Qiang and Huns completely helpless.
To form a unified whole, by that time, even if there are individual Qiang and Huns who want to return to their original appearance for some reason, they will not be able to find anyone, so that the entire education can be regarded as an end.
At the same time, due to the rich resources of bamboo in Sichuan and Sichuan, bamboo paper is no longer limited, and woodblock printing has also been greatly developed. Not only the "Yi" with a small number of words has been printed, but even the "Book of Songs" has been generally prepared
It's done, and it's about to be carved. Sima Hui is also very concerned about this matter, and a copy has been sent to Chang'an for Fei Qian to review.
For the Yi Jing and the Book of Songs, which are relatively uncontroversial scriptures, the children of the gentry are naturally in great demand. Even the Wang family in Taiyuan expressed their willingness to sell them in their bookshops...
However, the next step may not be so smooth. After all, taking Spring and Autumn as an example, there are three companies. Which one is the main publisher will depend on the subsequent evolution.
Such a prosperous situation has naturally attracted the attention of many noble families. It seems that under Fei Qian's rule, Bingzhou Guanzhong is no longer the barbaric and barbaric area where warriors once were, so it has attracted some people.
After traveling thousands of miles to Chang'an...
For example, right now, Fei Qian received a famous assassination.
"Zhuge Jin?"
Fei Qian pinched the famous thorn in his hand and couldn't help but want to say, where is your brother?
This is not the collecting place for Big Brother. Xu Ding came here before, and now Zhuge Jin comes here. Is it because so many people like Big Brother?
Historically, Zhuge Jin was naturally inferior to his younger brother. It can be said that among the three Zhuge brothers, even after removing the olive oil that Mr. Luo applied to the second brother Zhuge, there are also dragons, tigers, leopards, ahem, dragons and tigers.
The names of dogs. The second brother Zhuge is naturally Wolong, the eldest brother Zhuge Jin is tiger, and the third brother Zhuge only has the promising title of Dog Leg.
Fei Qian held his head and pondered. Fei Qian had some understanding of this Zhuge Jin because of his relationship with his younger brother.
Perhaps he felt that his second brother had grown up and could become independent. Zhuge Jin also came to Jiangdong alone at about this time in history and met Sun Quan's brother-in-law Hongzi. Hongzi was surprised by Zhuge Jin's talent and learning.
Highly recommended to my brother-in-law. At this time, Sun Quan, who had just taken charge of Jiangdong, was in the midst of employing people. He kept Zhuge Jin as a retainer, first as a guest, then as a long history, and then as a lieutenant general.
As for Sun Quan's brother-in-law, the only thing he did in his life that could leave a mark in the history books was to recommend Zhuge Jin.
In terms of future generations, Zhuge Jin started working at the age of 25 or 26, and served successively as clerk, secretary, and assistant to the general manager of the Dahan Jiangdong Branch, and then stayed in this position until he was 41 years old. During this period in Jiangdong
The branch has achieved a series of eye-catching achievements, such as the Battle of Chibi, the Southern Conquest of Jiaozhou, the Battle of Hefei, the Battle of Ruxukou, the marriage of Sun and Liu, etc. There were victories and defeats, but in these years these events
Zhuge Jin's name did not appear in his list of meritorious deeds. It seemed that he had never come up with an idea that could be recorded in history, nor had he directed a famous battle...
At the age of 41, in order to celebrate Liu Bei's occupation of Shu, and at the same time to urge Liu Bei to quickly return Jingzhou that he borrowed from Soochow, Zhuge Jin finally took on an important task and went to Chengdu as an envoy. During the negotiations, he had not been with him for many years.
His younger brother Zhuge Liang only talks about business in public and never meets in private. The two brothers distinguish between public and private affairs, and their style of forgetting public and private affairs is legendary. But as for the results of this negotiation, haha, you know it if you think about it, otherwise it will be
There is no Guan Yu left to visit Maicheng. But even with such fruitless foreign affairs, after Zhuge Jin returned, he still did not receive any criticism or impeachment. This is another very interesting thing.
Later, Zhuge Jin followed Lu Meng to conquer Jingzhou and was granted the title of marquis, and then took over the position of the unlucky Lu Meng. Then he rose all the way up, won battles, was promoted, lost battles, and was still fine, and was promoted, and finally Zhuge Jin was promoted to the rank of general.
, leading the Yuzhou Shepherd. Of course, these officials were all granted by Sun Quan, not those from the imperial court...
It seems that Zhuge Jin is no big deal, so how can he be evaluated as a "tiger"?
Forget it, we have to meet him after all.
Fei Qian glanced at Pang Tong.
Pang TongΣ(っ°Д°;)っ
"Shi Yuan, Zhuge Ziyu is here, why don't you go pick him up?" Fei Qian chuckled and handed the assassin to Pang Tong.
"Why am I running errands again!" Pang Tong muttered in a low voice as he took the assassination.
"Who should go if not you?" Fei Qian laughed, "Your brother is married to Zhuge, so you are still married, shouldn't you go?"
Pang Tong sighed, said no more, and went out holding his stomach.
Not long after, Pang Tong took Zhuge Jin to the political affairs hall.
Fei Qian stood up and stood at the foot of the steps to greet him. He saw a young man following Pang Tong. He had a face like white jade, a square forehead, starry eyes and sharp eyebrows, and a dignified appearance.
Well, being from compatriots, the three Zhuge brothers naturally have good looks...
"People from the mountains have seen Hussar..." Zhuge Jin stepped forward to greet him.
Fei Qian smiled and helped Zhuge Jin up, and invited him: "We are all members of our own family, why should we be so polite... Come on, please take a seat..."
After the guests and hosts sat down, Fei Qian exchanged a few words of greetings, asked about the journey, Jing Xiang, what he had seen and heard, and then said: "What is the general situation in the world now? I wonder if Ziyu has any advice?"
Fei Qian's idea was, after all, this process is followed. Your brother has a Longzhong pair, so now it's okay to give him a Guanzhong pair. But Fei Qian didn't expect that Zhuge Jin smiled slightly and said something to Fei Qian.
