“I will pass on my will that all the common people, rich people, etc. who donate materials for free will all be on the list. After the victory of the war next year, it will be doubled and vice versa!”

Liu Zhao thought for a while.

“Your Majesty is sympathetic to the people, has the whole world in mind, and the ministers and others bow to him.

Hearing that, Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi and the others all bowed down intentionally.

An emperor like Liu Zhao, who had a heart for the people of the world, let alone a lantern, he was sitting in a hot air balloon with Kongming lanterns to search the world for “Nine Eight Seven”, but he couldn’t find it in the history books!

Compared with the monarch and minister Yixin of the Great Han Kingdom, other countries are different.

Southern Song Dynasty.

Xiangyang City.

The demise of the Jin Dynasty did not touch the threat of Xiangyang City.

On the contrary, the situation facing Xiangyang City is even more severe.

This point, the local people feel very deeply.

“Didn’t the Jin Dynasty destroy the country? Why are there more and more troops near Xiangyang City?’

“Yeah, the conscription system is not only getting stricter, but also collecting more and more taxes.”

“Now you have to pay a head tax when you enter the city. What happened to our court?”

“Don’t you know? Although the Jin Dynasty has perished, another powerful country has risen again, the Han Dynasty! The Han Dynasty is more terrifying than the Jin Dynasty!”

“Yeah, the Han Dynasty is more terrifying than the Jin Dynasty, but what does this have to do with our people? Have you heard about the life of the people of the Han Dynasty? It is said that they don’t have enough to eat, and now they can eat every meal. Meat, and still go to school…

Yes, in the eyes of all countries, ten Jin dynasties are not equal to one Han Dynasty.

And it was helpless.

The people in the south who are used to it cannot be trained to become elite soldiers in a short period of time, while the people in the north are more heroic and the people are sturdy, and the people can pick up weapons and go to the battlefield with a little training.

In desperation, the Southern Song Dynasty could only adopt the method of using quantity to produce qualitative change.

Now the Southern Song Dynasty’s policy of drawing a dice is extremely strict, with one dice per household.

But this creates another problem.

The number of people is large, and the cost is also large.

The army is a bottomless pit in any era, not the creation of ordnance, and even the daily cost is an astronomical figure.

Now the Southern Song Dynasty has a population of more than 80 million.

A large family has dozens or even more than a hundred people, and a small family has about three or four people, so now the Southern Song Dynasty has a total of 10 million households. …

According to the policy of drawing one piece per household, the Southern Song Dynasty raised a total of 10 million people.

Of course, it does not mean that there are ten million troops in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Most of them are auxiliary units.

For example, transport soldiers who transport various materials, and craftsmen who build weapons and armor.

The transportation efficiency in ancient times and the efficiency of making weapons and armors were very low, so now the army of the Southern Song Dynasty is only five million.

There are probably not even one million troops who have been trained to go to the battlefield, and most of them are the troops who fought against the Jin Dynasty before.

Now, the front line of Xiangyang City has assembled 1.4 to 10,000 troops of the Southern Song Dynasty, more than the people of Xiangyang City. It is conceivable how much pressure the people of Xiangyang City have endured.

“General, we can’t go on like this on 4.8. If we go on like this, I’m afraid that before the Han army comes to attack us, we will collapse first!”

A general said with a bitter face.

In front of him are the current commander-in-chief of the Southern Song Dynasty Army on the first line of Jingxi Road and Xiangyang Prefecture, officials and privy secretaries who bear the decree, Beijing Southwest Road appeasement system envoy, Handong County Founding Duke, Xiangyang County Jiedu envoy, and general Yunhui from the third rank.
