Thanks to the impression given to later generations of Celestial Empire people by the famous generation of civil officials who were so bad that they were worse than, it was an inevitable phenomenon that the Celestial Empire people distrusted civil officials. \ Then there is the existence of a country's army to ensure the immortality of the country, even if the military really has some bullshit, the information about the army is actually in a closed state, and it is not known to ordinary people at all, which makes ordinary people have a better impression of the army.
In fact, no matter how greedy the civil officials in a country are, or even if they do something angry and resentful, they are not as powerful as the army.
Once the army is eroded, the country will enter the stage of having a country without defense, and the invasion of foreign enemies will cause the country to be destroyed.
If there is a rebellion in the army, it is not as simple as the people living in poverty, it is the country that is in flames.
As long as he is a ruler with a normal mind, he can tolerate the corruption of civilian officials, but he will never see the corruption of the military, everything is nothing more than that civilian officials have no military power, just a few officials can easily clean up the corrupt civilian officials, once the military is involved, there is no trivial matter.
Although Liu Yan has become a king, his long-term cultivation of thoughts will not change just because of a few years, and he still needs to encounter some events to wake up.
The rulers of all dynasties would not overfeed the army unless they were forced to do so, and what they did was to keep the supplies at the military's disposal at a minimum, so that even if there was a real rebellion, the army would lack supplies and could not fight for a long time.
As a ruler, Liu Yan has not yet become a king in the real sense, and he can't be cold-blooded and ruthless, because he didn't miss the army before he crossed, some of his actions are really too inclined to the military.
It's not that no one in the Han Kingdom sees the risk of the army mastering a huge amount of materials, it should be said that anyone in the center can see it, but for the time being, no one has advised Liu Yan.
No one has stated the reason for the powerful relationship, which is a bit complicated, Sang Yu, as the imperial envoy, personally went to the counties to inspect the counties, and in just three months, he found out a large group of magistrates who had done all the bad things, which really made the central civil service system blush and difficult to speak.
Third, the country is about to enter the stage of internal affairs development, and because the military is unable to start a large-scale war, there is no place for fire, and anyone who jumps out may be hated and attacked by the military.
In fact, there is a reason that even civil officials can't argue, as long as you are a civil official, the above to the three emperors and five emperors, let's talk about modern times, as a civil official, as long as there is oil and water, there must be someone who stretches out his hand, it is the kind of inevitability that no matter how big the risk is, someone will reach out, the difference is big greed or small greed.
It's not that the military won't reach out, any group will be a pest, the problem is that the military will definitely have fewer people than civilian officials because of their sense of honor and discipline.
Ji Chang positioned himself as the king's loyal dog, and if others didn't dare to say it or didn't want to say it, he had to say it even if he was stubborn.
After the end of the court, Liu Yan went to the apse to sit for a while, waiting for someone to meet in private, talk about some things that are not good to say in the Han court, and there may be someone to make a small report.
"What should I do if the military is corrupt" Liu Yan didn't think about this problem, and as soon as he heard Ji Chang say it, he had to put it on the table: "The materials are managed and dispatched by the military, but they must be supervised by the central and local teams. ” "The army keeps a huge amount of supplies," Ji Chang said a little open-mindedly: "I'm afraid something unspeakable will happen." ” Having said that, no ruler in the past dynasties was willing to let the army have enough supplies, even if the supplies were too much for the treasury to hold, but the practice was to limit the supplies to only three months, in order to jam the army's logistics, so that the rebel army could not be fed and could better suppress it.
The army of the Han State was created by Liu Yan, and he was absolutely powerful in the military, so he really didn't worry that the army would break out into rebellion, so when he heard Ji Chang mention that the army might break out into rebellion, the expression on his face was very weird.
Ji Chang was afraid of Liu Yan's complete confidence in the military, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw a strange expression on Liu Yan's face.
He will not say that some materials should be kept and deployed by the civilian system, and Liu Yan has already made a final decision at the court meeting, and it is a serious matter to discuss how to supervise it.
To carry out a nationwide infrastructure construction, first of all, there must be a reserve of grain, Ji Chang had already found Yu Yi before he came, as a group to colonize the Indochina Peninsula is headed by the Yu family, at least nominally each family respects the Yu family, so if there is any problem, just look for the Yu family.
Even if it is only the nominal leader, Yu Yi is still afraid of becoming the leader, for fear that Liu Yan will have any bad opinions, and then it is equivalent to erecting a signboard that will be attacked.
This makes him never shirk when he can cooperate with Liu Yan, and he definitely doesn't pretend to be forced when he can keep a low profile on various things.
Before Ji Chang found it, Yu Yi was mentally prepared to the greatest extent, Ji Chang only asked a few words, and he said that even if all the monkeys in the Indochina Peninsula were starved to death, he would ensure that he would scavenge as much food as possible and return home.
It has been almost two years since the Han people entered the Indochina Peninsula, and they have a good idea of how much the local production capacity is.
The last time we talked about the food issue, Yu Yi contracted a share of fifteen million stones as soon as he opened his mouth.
Fifteen million stone grains sounds like a lot, but in fact, the amount is really huge.
Based on the unit of measurement of the two Jin Dynasty, one stone is 160 catties of the modern unit of measurement, so it is converted to 2.4 billion catties, and the unit of measurement according to Liu Yan's plan is 1.2 million tons. 1.2 million tons of grain is not a small amount, but if the number of people who eat it is spread to 17 million people, if it is not suppressed, it will be enough to eat for about three months at most.
If there is no supplementary food, the ancients let go of eating, and the young and strong can eat a pound of food.
With only 1.2 million tons of food available to 17 million people, such a country must be a pill in every minute, so even if Indochina can really provide this amount of food, it will be a drop in the bucket.
"If the Central Plains really doesn't harvest, it's just to calculate the output of the south and then settle the taxes" Ji Chang blinked his eyes for a while, and said with difficulty: "At most, about 40 million stones" With the original territory of the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the official tax farming of the country ended before the destruction of the small court, and it was considered to be the top of the sky if there was 20 million stones a year, and the double in Ji Chang's data was that the southern family was destroyed a lot, and the cultivated land that the family had originally concealed surfaced.
Liu Yan's arithmetic was quite qualified, and he tacitly calculated to get a figure of 4.4 million tons.
This time, he kept blinking his eyes, frightened by the grain available to the whole country, and was stunned for a while before asking: "How is the grain reserve of Dahan now?"
Ji Chang opened his mouth and gave the number: "The contract is thirty-five million stones." ” There will be this number, first, Huan Wen killed in the south, and collected it from the exterminated families; In addition, there is the accumulation of taxes every year, which naturally includes the looting on the Indochina Peninsula.
"Last year, the consumption of the Han Dynasty was available for statistics, totaling 70 million stones, of which seventy percent was used for war, and the rest was supplied to the people."
Ji Chang felt a terrible pain in his crotch when he mentioned this, the army has always been a big consumer of food, and when a war broke out, he opened his mouth and kept swallowing food.
He had some things that he had to say clearly: "The Han Dynasty drove out Hu Lu in order.
The counties in the east of Mountain 1 recovered early and resumed production first.
The rest of the Central Plains rely on the central grain supply market for the majority. ” Liu Yan has a very good idea of this mentality, and only a very small part of the grain can be stored when it is harvested or bought, and more is directly mobilized to supply all parties, and as a result, the grain in his hand is extremely worrisome, and there is no way to store any strategic reserve grain at all.
The Central Plains has been repeatedly plagued by the Hulu of various ethnic groups, the sharp reduction of the population is one of them, the Hulu is really turning the Central Plains into pastures, most of the farmland opened up by the ancestors of Zhuxia is deserted, it will take time to restore farming, there is a lack of sufficient labor, the irrigation system is almost none, and then there is a lack of production tools, which has caused great problems to the resumption of production.
Over the past three years, the center has repeatedly emphasized the need to dredge the existing irrigation system, and the local people who can move, whether they are forced or employed, are doing this work, and a large number of slaves are also being put into this work.
Most people are working with enthusiasm, thinking that the repair of the irrigation system should be all over the fertile fields, but God does not want people to live in peace at all, and the Central Plains has ushered in a drought, and the drought will inevitably follow the plague of locusts.
Even in modern times, there is no very good way to deal with drought, even if the drought is detected in advance, even the reservoir water storage is not of much use, and the water from the reservoir will not be absorbed or evaporated by the stratum at all, and the water from the reservoir must have the same subsystem to be transported to the place where it is needed, and the only thing that can be remedied is to use the water in the area where there is no shortage of water to use the water conservancy system originally built to transport it to the past.
The South-to-North Water Diversion Project is used for this purpose If you want to build a system for distributing water, that's not something that can be done in the era of machinery.
Think about the manpower and time spent by the First Emperor in order to build Dujiangyan, and then look at how many deaths and injuries Yang Guang used to dig a canal in an acute manner, and it is clear that the process is inevitably scalp numbness.
If he could prepare in advance, Liu Yan would have gritted his teeth and done it, the big deal was to be mentally prepared to die hundreds of thousands of slaves.

The problem is that when he had that time, the Central Plains was not under his rule, and it was no longer enough time for him to dominate the Central Plains, and in the face of a large-scale drought, he could only do some small remedial measures, and the subsequent investigations proved that those measures were useless.
"There is no tax in the Central Plains this year, and it may be difficult to guarantee the needs in the south alone."
Ji Chang didn't say that the south should raise taxes, and the south was only included in the rule for less than two years, and it was the critical moment to clean up the hearts and minds of the people. ” Liu Yan was about to speak, and Cui Zonglai told Xu Zheng, Ran Min, and Huan Wen to ask to see.
The large-scale warfare that the military was waging has basically stopped, and most of the high-ranking generals who are in the middle of the war are not allowed to return to the center, and if they do not have the responsibility of supervising the cash-for-work work, they will inevitably have to be idle to go to the horse and the stage, and play cocks and dogs.
The three of them had just participated in the Great Dynasty Meeting, and they were wearing the corset of warriors, not military uniforms.
They entered the apse and approached the line, saluted Liu Yan respectfully, and then glared at Ji Chang.
"The prime minister is talking about the storage of materials" Ran Min didn't wait for Ji Chang to give any response, and said with a big grin: "We have discussed it a little, and we think that it is inappropriate for the military to keep and allocate materials, and it should be attributed to the Prime Minister's Mansion." ” Xu Zheng kept nodding his head, and said a little brightly: "It should be like this, it should be like this."
We and other martial artists can only kill people, how can we live so carefully. ” Ji Chang was stared at inexplicably and slightly annoyed just now, and after listening to Xu Zheng and Ran Min's words, he was a little stunned, and shouted: "Chang and the king discussed the Han Dynasty's reserve of grain, and never talked about it. ” The response of the three military bigwigs to Ji Chang was a burst of "hehehe", and the expression on his face was clearly to die or not.
Originally, the military was really engaged in murder, arson, and murder, and the management and deployment of herdsmen and materials were civilian affairs.
The speed of the Han army's recovery of various places is fast enough, and the Han State currently has a large number of military areas, even if it is a last resort in troubled times, but no matter how it is calculated, it is stepping on the boundary.
A large-scale natural disaster is about to occur, and the king must be prepared for disaster relief, as long as it has a relationship with the people from ancient times to the present, it seems that it is handled by the civilian system, and the military will only be allowed to enter under extremely special conditions.
It must be said that it is generally the civilian system that has messed up, and the disaster relief has made it impossible for the local people to survive and chaos has erupted, and the military has come out to kill people.
"Whoever does the work, who will do it."
Ran Min just wants to carry out the rough to the end, so he doesn't care whether the words are good or not, and whether he should say or not: "The king can rest assured that he has so many materials, but we are not at ease ourselves, so I ask the king to take back his life."
We thought about it carefully, thinking that relying only on the output of the Han Dynasty, how could there be not enough food, and we should go out and grab it, and we could grab as much as we could. ” Liu Yan understood that the three military bigwigs couldn't calm down, and the military was unwilling to use only two standing armies for the war, and what they wanted was a way to make meritorious contributions.
Ji Chang said weakly: "The Indochina Peninsula is a colony of various families" "Let's not go there and get involved."
Ran Min looked at Liu Yan flatteringly, and said shyly: "What is the Liang family and the Chen family, isn't there a large number of countries in the north of them, and the king also said that the Ganges River valley over there is a large grain-producing area.
Now that the Han is short of food, and the food at home is not enough, we feel that we should go and rob Ah Sanyi. ” Ah San's side is also the place where Liu Yan has designated to spread joy to the domestic people, that is, now he has some support for eating the Indochina Peninsula, and he can't stretch out his hand before digesting it, and it is expected to wait for several years or even decades.
"Didn't you find that strait" Xu Zheng also looked embarrassed: "The ministers think that if they are not familiar with cross-sea operations, they will not make a big move to destroy the country and destroy the clan, but it is very appropriate to plunder with appropriate troops." ” At this moment, Liu Yan looked at Ji Chang and felt that he should take a closer look
