Chapter 601: The Widow Needs at Least 100 Million People


The Zhang clan made some contributions to China, and after the Sima royal family took the lead in fleeing south of the Yangtze River, they had been trying their best to resist the Hu people, until Zhang Chonghua succeeded to the throne, and respected the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty as the Zhengshuo.

Respecting the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty for Zhengshuo is indeed a contribution, no matter what the Zhang family does in secret, it still belongs to the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty in name, and it is the idea of "great unification" that recognizes the "great unification" of the same ethnic group, and it is precisely because of the idea of "great unification" that the Chinese nation can maintain unity and continue to pass it on.

There are quite a lot of peoples on the earth, and the history that can be traced back to the seventh millennium BC has been very great, but these peoples quickly disappeared in the long river of time, even if there are descendants left, but those descendants will no longer think that they are the successors of someone, but will come into contact with a new culture and become a new people.

The Yan and Huang clans began to fight and grow from the source of the Yellow River, and after the Xia Dynasty and the Shang Dynasty continued to compete for living space with the Rong, Di, Yi, Man, and Yue, they had the basic plate of Ji Zhou.

There is a Zhou generation, and the royal family surnamed Ji divides the vassals, with the intention of letting those courtiers defend the royal family.

The conditions that those courtiers who were divided out of the feudal system at that time were actually extremely bad, not only had to endure the attacks and conquests of various foreign races, but also faced extremely harsh conditions.

The Zhou family surnamed Ji was divided into 3,000 feuds, and many of the vassals were those who perished in the hands of foreign races, and those who were able to persist and develop were the kingdoms of the early Spring and Autumn Period after the Zhou family moved eastward.

No matter what kind of ideas the ministers of the Zhou Chamber surnamed Ji had at the beginning, the big division of the feudal system at that time really achieved one thing, that is, to fight for a greater living space for the ethnic group.

The feudal princes expanded the living space of the same Miao descendant, but it is not easy to say what would have become if it had not been for Qin to sweep the Liuhe Eight Desolations, after all, after hundreds of years, different countries, such as the Qin people, the Zhao people, the Yan people, the Han people, the Chu people, and so on, each of the people in different countries has their own self-names.

If there was no Qin to dominate the world, the countries would have been independent and independent for a longer time, and it is conceivable that even if there was the same ancestor, they would definitely become different nations in the future.

Qin has made great contributions to the unification of the world, and the subsequent cars with the same track, books and texts, and weights and measures have created the foundation for the national kneading, if there is no these, I don't know if there is a Chinese nation Qin's contribution cannot be erased, but it was the Han Empire that gave the Chinese Miao people pride.

It is the military strength of the Han Empire that has added a dose of strength to the nation, and the prosperity of the continuous destruction of the country and the death of the clan with foreign conquests has allowed the rest of the ethnic groups to begin to have the title of "Han people".

How much impact did the great achievements of the Han Empire have on the fact that the Sima royal family was incompetent and lost the Central Plains, and the Hun Liu Yuan could only shout that he had Han blood in order to gain support, and he also engaged in a notorious "imperial Han".

The first country name that came to mind when many aliens established a country was "Han", and as a result, there were Liu Yuan Han Kingdom, Li Shoucheng Han, Liu Zhiyuan Later Han, Liu Chongbei Han, and Liu Yin Southern Han.

There are so many countries that have really become a situation and established a country, and there are even more who have taken a name but have not succeeded in establishing a country, and the King of Han is also a top prince in all dynasties and generations.

The military strength of the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty really had an unimaginable impact, and it was until Yang Jian Dynasty Zhou that the slogan was to restore the dignity of the men of the Han family and build the glory of the strong Han Dynasty.

It is no exaggeration to say that Yang Jian spent his entire life restoring the status of the Han Chinese, and he was also the founder of the imperial examination.

Although the Sui Dynasty was short-lived, its contribution to the ethnic group was not low at all, and even after the second millennium AD, it was still enjoying the rest of the Meng.

Liu Yan's vision of things is different from many people today, he has a clear national concept, knows how big the world is, and of course has the intention to build an eternal empire, but he wants to let the Han family and Miao people have a greater living space, and it is best to have Han people everywhere on the earth.

Thinking about things differently, with a broader vision, Liu Yan actually takes a more gentle approach when facing an enemy of the same race, especially when he feels that the enemy has contributed to the race, and there is less ruthlessness to kill them all.

For Liu Yan, the world is really big, so big that even if it is a fellow clan as an enemy, it is okay to drive it to a certain place without completely destroying it, and even hope that those of the same clan who are driven away can gain a firm foothold, even if they have always been an enemy, but it is better than some alien race to occupy those places.

Liu Yan firmly believes that in an environment where the idea of great unification is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, even if his generation connives, the next generation will inevitably use all means to "collect" those "wanderers" who are wandering away.

Besides, he deliberately indulges sometimes, and he will definitely not hesitate when it is time to close the net, and he may not have to wait for the next generation to do it.

As for whether to accept Zhang Zuo, the ministers who accompanied Liu Yan on the expedition expressed their opinions in writing the next day.

I don't know if they have communicated privately, but there are no objections, but how to accept, what treatment should be given after acceptance, and some details have different opinions.

Zhang Zuo is not the king of Liang now, he pretended to pass on Zhang Chonghua's edict to call himself a general, and he has no name to represent the surrender of the whole country of Zhang's Liangguo, and he can represent himself, and may also bring those counties who are willing to be obedient.

Zhang Chonghua, the rightful Liang king of the Zhang family, was in captivity in Xiangguo, just like the leaders of the countries and forces who were defeated and captured.

After Zhang Chonghua failed to go on a hunger strike, he began to non-violently and non-resist, and he has always adopted a non-cooperative attitude, which is a relatively backbone among all the captured heads.

The so-called hero of his own enemy, if he has backbone, it is a good thing, but the backbone of the enemy will look annoying, what the Han Kingdom wants is a Xiliang that has not been destroyed by a large scale, and he does not want to kill too many people in the process of destroying Zhang's Liangguo, so Zhang Chonghua's non-cooperation is really an obstacle.

The current population of the Han Kingdom should be more than 20 million before the five years of Yuan Shuo, and the population of the statistics is more than 9 million, and the large gap between the proportion of men and women is shown within the scope of the statistics, including Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Yuzhou and most of Sizhou, most of Jizhou, and Guanzhong, and does not include the original Eastern Jin Dynasty under the rule of the small court, the Li family under the rule of the Cheng Han and the newly occupied states and counties.

Due to the lack of government officials and the serious hidden population in the local area, it is not easy to count household registration now.

Murong Yanguo did a census in 342 AD, and it only took a year to count relatively reliable data, and the data obtained at that time was 370,000 households, which is 1.85 million according to the calculation of five people in a household.

The reason why they are easy to do when they count the population is that they have the foundation of the previous household arrangement, and it is also related to the military law of drawing in wartime.

When Qianyan went south to attack Ran Wei, he drew one ding as a soldier for each household, with a total strength of nearly 400,000 Countries such as Shiqi Zhao State, Eastern Jin Dynasty Small Imperial Court, Li Chenghan, Tuoba Dynasty, Zhang Liang State and other countries could not do it at all if they wanted to count the population.

Of course, the Hu regime generally does not recruit Han soldiers, and even if it does transfer Han people, it is only used as a people.

This habit was maintained until the Northern Wei Dynasty was broken, that is because a large number of Hu people are consumed in the annual war, and the Hu regime really can't draw more Hu people to serve as soldiers, so it can only turn its attention to the Han people, otherwise there is a clear division of labor, the Hu people are responsible for the war, and the Han people are responsible for production.

It must be said that after the Hu people took the initiative to break the boundary between the conquest class and the production class, the so-called military general family also appeared, and by the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the military general family had developed to a stage that was enough to influence the country's change, for example, Yang Jian of the Zhou Dynasty was one of the "Pillar States", and the so-called "Pillar Kingdom" was actually a family of military generals.

In the past few years, the Han State has continued to purge the local tyrants and powers, including those who are unwilling to be ruled by the Han State, and more are unwilling to hand over the land they have encroached upon and the population under their control.

The cleanup of Haoqiang has been done since Liu Yan's founding of the People's Republic of China, and it was only after the official destruction of the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty that the local resistance gradually decreased, and there were not many people who dared to resist in the fifth year of Yuan Shuo, which also increased the speed of the statistical population.

"Eighteen million, no more."

Ji Chang came to Liu Yan today, and what he said was about the census data gradually gathered by various states and counties: "Those places in Sizhou, plus Bingzhou and Shuozhou, are all population withering, even if they are checked and filled in again, at most 400,000 will be counted, at most 500,000 in Shu and Badi, and there will not be more than 8 million south of the Yangtze River." ” Eighteen million are not simply Han and Miao descendants, at least five or six million are those who change their ancestors or mixed races, that is, they were originally Hu people at all, after the establishment of the Han State, part of them have already completed the sinicization by themselves, and more are afraid of being slaughtered and say that they are a Han people, but the Han State has not pursued it at all, as long as they are willing to change their living habits, speak Chinese, and write Chinese characters, then they can be a Han in addition to the Qi people.

Liu Yanmo vaguely remembers some data The total population at the end of the Zhao Kingdom should be about 10 million, which can also be seen from the fact that Shi Hu had to recruit a million troops at every turn, depending on how many households there were.

And a household basically has to send someone to be a soldier or a citizen, and the so-called million army is even counted as a citizen.

Of the 10 million people under the rule of Shi Qian, the Han people are estimated to be three or four million, and the Qi people themselves will not die more than one million, but the Qiang people and the Di people together will exceed four million, and the rest are all miscellaneous Hu.

These 10 million people were reduced very quickly during the war, and during this period, genocide broke out, and more than one million Han Chinese died in the genocide alone, and the rest of the ethnic groups also suffered heavy losses.

Li Chenghan did not do a census, and the largest conscription army during Li Shou's reign was to produce an army of 130,000, which still adopted the popular calculation method of one household out of one ding, and then counted the possibility that fathers, sons, brothers, and younger brothers were all soldiers, that is, the whole country has a population of about one million.

The long-term army of the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty is about 200,000, so that is to say, there are about 200,000 households registered in the government, but each family can have as many troops or private soldiers as there are at every turn, which shows that a considerable number of people are not on the national household register, and are servants or private slaves of the family.

"We have cleaned up Haoqiang in the south, and there are 270,000 first-level meritorious service.

And this does not count Zhuban and Zhuyue.

Ji Chang frowned, and said with some dissatisfaction: "It's not that General Zhengnan is wrong to kill people, it's that the method of killing people is not considered." ” Liu Yan is not a native of this era, and he will not understand why so many people are willing to die with the family, and when he heard that the people related to Haoqiang alone had cut 270,000, he couldn't help frowning.

Each regime is divided into periods, and Liu Yan only remembers that the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty had more than 17 million people at its peak, and I really don't know how much it should be at present.

In fact, the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty conducted a census in the years after Yongjia, and the population figure was 10.5 million, but strangely in the following decades, it dropped sharply to less than 4 million.

The reason why the population is more than half is less than half, just think about the family's methods of concealing the population.

"If you defeat Murong Xianbei" Liu Yan showed a longing expression: "How much more population can we add to the Han Dynasty?"

Ji Chang estimated that he knew that Liu Yan would ask, and quickly said the answer: "Looking at the severity of the war, if it can be quickly defeated, it should be able to get more than 1.5 million people." ” "That's not 20 million yet."

Liu Yan groaned, and even wrenched his fingers, not afraid that Ji Chang would leak secrets, as if he was talking to himself, and muttered: "Even if there are 20 million people, less than 10 million of them really belong to the Han family and Miao descendants, and the rest are Xibei goods, it will take an unknown number of years for them to fully become Han."

Ji Chang felt that Liu Yan had gone mad, and bluntly advised: "The king, as long as they accept the rule of the Han Dynasty and are willing to fight for the king, they are Han people." ” Liu Yan looked at Ji Chang and looked at it for a while with an expression that you don't understand, before he said, "Even if that's the case, 20 million people are not enough at all."

The widow is now very distressed, the soldiers are sharp enough, and they have enough strength to open up a larger territory, but they are afraid that the territory they have defeated will not be used by the people.

The Han Dynasty needs to increase to at least 10,000 people within 20 years, and the prime minister's first task in the future is to find ways to increase the population of the Han Dynasty."

Ji Chang immediately looked confused.

He has been studying very hard in recent years, the largest population in the previous dynasties was the Eastern Han Dynasty, the problem is that the Eastern Han Dynasty took about 200 years to have 65 million people, Liu Yan actually wants to increase to 100 million within 20 years, even if the age couple is desperate, the country can withstand a series of subsidiary effects:
