Chapter 1005 Liu Wu’s Sorrow
The world was in turmoil, and the Han army started a large-scale arms race.
In this state, the entire world suddenly calmed down, and every force was frantically expanding its army.
Expanding the army is not a simple matter. From the recruitment of personnel to the creation of weapons to the training of personnel, every step requires a lot of energy and material resources.
After all, a soldier doesn't just pull someone in randomly and give him a spear as a soldier.
Just like the Han army, they need to be strictly selected, then enter the recruit camp to start training for three months, and finally allocate their personnel according to their performance.
After these are completed, weapons and armor still need to be released.
You must know that the increase in military strength is not only in terms of personnel, but also in terms of food, medicine and other logistics support materials and logistics personnel, which are an extremely huge number.
Likewise, this is also an extremely huge consumption.
"We need to mint coins belonging to our Han army!"
At this moment, the Han army finally planned to put the matter of casting money on its own agenda.
"This is the template for the three types of coins formulated by the Finance Department!"
Liu Wu took the coins, which were three kinds of coins similar to Rakshasa Man coins, but mixed with the culture of the Han army, that is, there was a square hole in the middle.
“Exquisite is exquisite, but it’s not enough!”
The staff in the finance department were very curious. Isn't this enough?
In this regard, Liu Wu's metal currency in his previous life was used to prevent counterfeiting and prevent people from scratching the coins and moving them out.
That is to say, the square hole is cancelled, and then the periphery is serrated, and coins of different thicknesses and sizes are made into coins, which are used as the denominations for exchange.
Not only that, the proportion of lead in copper and silver also needs to be adjusted to prevent it from being taken away and melted.
As for gold, there is no need to mint gold coins. Instead, it is minted into large gold bricks and stored, and then banknotes are issued based on them.
Of course, this is only a rough plan, and many people still need to study the details.
However, the law has begun to be formulated, that is, how to punish those who damage coins.
In short, coins should serve the purpose of making it easier for people to communicate and use them, rather than being hidden or collected by thoughtful people to deliberately cause money panic.
"By the way, let's see if grain can anchor currency. Even if it can't be used as currency, let's see if it can be used as a temporary... Forget it, forget it!"
In short, the Han army needs stability in this aspect, but it also needs constant exploration and reform.
Correspondingly, when the whole world was frantically expanding its army, the Han army was not so grand.
The expansion of the Han army was completely orderly and carried out in batches. In fact, there was not much pressure.
Apart from anything else, the ordnance factory can complete the creation of weapons and armor without even having to spin, which can be said to be very easy.
As for the militia issue, the Han army first established its establishment and then gradually added it, step by step.
Correspondingly, the Han army fought against powerful people, fought against landlords, eliminated gangsters, eliminated gangsters, and divided fields and property.
Then the Datong Society was established, government agencies were established, and new schools were established.
Propaganda ideas, propaganda policies, etc.
In short, the Han army is very busy now, but not in military affairs, but in people's livelihood.
Among them, civil weapons institutes, etc. have begun to be established, and markets have also begun to be built, all to ensure that the people can live a good life.
Of course, militia training has not stopped.
Unless it is the busy farming season, at least one day of training is required every five days, and this day is a dream for organized militiamen.
Because I can take care of the food this day, I still have enough food, and there is enough salt or salted fish in the meal.
But even so, if the enemy's spies encounter such a thing, they will be frightened.
At the same time, the Han army also repaired roads, dug canals, built ponds and reservoirs and a series of other projects at other times.
Of course, these projects rarely take people hundreds of miles away from home. They usually work around villages and towns, bit by bit.
During work, it is not full-time, but half-day training and half-day work.
"The canal has been repaired!"
There is strength in numbers. In many places, water conservancy projects are not good enough. It is not that people are unwilling to build them, but that they need people to organize them.
As for the original Daqian court or the Rakshasa barbarians, they simply would not pay attention to this kind of thing.
If the fields that are too remote want to use water, they have to find their own way.
The Han army was different. They concentrated their efforts on major tasks and provided adequate treatment. Naturally, some people worked hard.
Because everyone understands that this is for themselves.
In this way, the first year passed without any commotion in the world. After all, a large number of young people were recruited, so there was no chaos.
As for the Han Army, when it was not suitable to carry out construction projects, they began a large-scale militia training.
For a time, the shouts of killing from the Han army were so loud that the three neighboring families were frightened and dispatched their troops frantically.
"They are afraid of us!"
Looking at the information from the intelligence personnel, Liu Wu put it aside with a smile, and then looked at how the recovered New Five Continents were doing now.
After one year of development, a total of 18 million acres of newly cultivated fields were created.
After the canals were dredged and the original fields were dug again, more fertile fields were added.
There are six reservoirs, but every village has ponds, and canals are crisscrossed with a total length of 4,000 miles, which can irrigate 1.2 million acres of high-quality farmland.
To this end, after a year of investigation, Han Army water conservancy staff have selected a large number of places suitable for building reservoirs.
By then, many canals and rivers will rely on these reservoirs and rivers to irrigate more land.
Liu Wu looked at the report and realized that thanks to this good year, the Han army's granaries were full, and there were enough reserves for winter militia training and the construction of reservoirs and canals in the coming year.
"Yes, these grain reserves are enough to feed all the people of the Han army for a whole year."
"Although the reserve is not enough, it has exhausted the current capabilities of the Han army!"
Liu Wu still sighed a little. As the area actually controlled by the Han army became larger and larger, the management difficulty was no longer what it used to be.
Just like today, many places have been destroyed. Although the fields have been divided and the people have become active, the actual situation is not like this.
"There's still no rush!"
Liu Wu sighed, the development of the Han army will become more and more difficult in the future.
"Industrialize, industrialize!"
At this time, Liu Wu was obsessed with industrialization, but his time was too short and he had not accumulated enough to make a big step forward!
The problem with all of this lies in one thing: talent!
It’s not that there are no talents today. There are also many talents in Taiping Dao Kingdom and Daqian, but most of these people are rushing to become officials.
Scientific research strength still needs to be cultivated by oneself.
Even those who choose to be officials must be trained by themselves so that they can reach high positions.
Otherwise, when the time comes, those people who reverse the course of history and wantonly criticize strange and obscene techniques will suffer the same sin!
