The order is given,
Huo Qubing, who was stationed in the northern border, immediately led all the cavalry and horses in the army towards Linzi as soon as he received the news.
at the same time,
The two fronts, the eastern and southern fronts, also separated their cavalry separately and rushed to the gathering point.
Moreover, Han Lin was still in the territory, recruiting many soldiers again and sending them to the southern front to supplement Yue Yunfei's army.
Yue Yunfei was required to target the main force of the Song army to ensure that Huo Qubing had unimpeded access to the territory of the Song Dynasty.
As for other small countries such as Lu and Chen, Han Lin also sent envoys there.
Warn them to stay out of their own business.
Just stay home alone and don't have any evil thoughts.
Otherwise, the country will be destroyed!
The current Qi State has the confidence to say such a thing.
After a new round of conscription,
Today, the number of troops in the entire Qi State has exceeded 400,000.
In addition to the second-line troops stationed in Linzi and scattered in various places, the number of troops sent to the front line has reached 350,000.
It can be said,
This is the highest number of troops recruited by Qi State in the past fifty years.
For example, when Han Lin first ascended the throne, the entire Qi State had only more than 200,000 soldiers and horses.
A large part of them are patrol soldiers scattered in various counties.
There is no fighting ability at all.
Not to mention the four major camps in the capital.
On the surface, it has an army of 50,000, well equipped with sufficient supplies.
In fact, with Yuan Kang and others having no pay, the four major battalions could not muster a few combat-effective soldiers.
Now, Qi's military strength.
It can be said that this is the most powerful time for Qi State in the past fifty years.
Of course,
The reason why it is said is fifty years.
On the one hand, there was a generation of heroes in Qi State before that.
He led Qi State to conquer the north and south, and expanded a lot of territory.
On the other hand, Qi's foreign war achievements are not many, and in terms of the number of troops, it still implements an elite military system.
Unless it is a temporary call-up, the total number of troops will not be three to five million like other countries.
........
At the same time as this conscription was launched,
There is another thing that is different from before.
That is, Han Lin allowed that residents of other countries could also choose to sign up to join the army.
Although the flow of talents between countries is very frequent.
For example, a man named Yuan Ergou was born in the state of Wei.
But he felt that he had no future in Wei, so he defected to other countries.
Just like the previous reform of Hanlin's imperial examination system, many students and scholars from Qi State went to neighboring countries.
This matter is actually very common among all countries.
But,
Recruiting soldiers and horses is different.
Generally speaking, people from their own country will be recruited.
But after discussions between Han Lin and Guan Zhong, they decided to make some changes.
Mainly about household registration.
First of all, the household registration of the entire Qi State must be managed and collected uniformly, and special personnel must be assigned to strictly monitor it.
this point,
In fact, it was a large database that Han Lin negotiated with Guan Zhong after combining the current system of Qin and related modern systems of later generations.
The main purpose is to mobilize the country's resources effectively and efficiently during wartime.
In addition to basic household registration,
This time, all the information from the entire Qi Kingdom must be collected and organized.
For example, land area, mountains, seas, ponds, taxes, fiscal expenditures, horse administration, inns... and so on.
All data are organized and categorized in a unified manner.
Such a large database was actually first implemented by Shang Yang's reform.
So later on, Qin Shihuang built the Great Wall, Afang Palace, Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum and many other projects, but there was no cause for the famine because everything could be traced.
For example, let's organize an army of 100,000 to go on an expedition.
Where do these 100,000 soldiers come from, where do they get their weapons and equipment, how much do they need to pay for the soldiers, and where do they come from.
How much grain and grass must be mobilized along the way, which major grain-producing counties must be shipped from along the way, what is the inventory in each county, and how much can actually be supplied to the front line after accounting for the consumption on the road.
If this war lasts for a long time, where will the follow-up supplies be mobilized?
There are many other issues, none of which you need to worry about.
Everything is clear at a glance.
During the subsequent Chu-Han War,
When Liu Bang broke into Guanzhong, Xiao He immediately sorted out Qin's big data.
This also became the strongest backing for Liu Bang and Xiang Yu when they competed for hegemony.
After having such a large database,
All information about Qi State will be clearly displayed in front of him.
How many people are there in the entire Qi State, and how many troops can be sent out.
How much food can be produced each year?
How many inns are there and how much food can be sent to the front line?
In wartime, these can be mobilized quickly.
Han Lin also suddenly thought of this when it came to the conscription.
After discussions with Guan Zhong, various systems of the Qin State were refined and omissions were checked and filled.
Finally, it was implemented in Qi State.
As for the restrictions on recruiting soldiers, Han Lin also lifted them.
from now on,
No matter which country you are from, as long as you work or farm in Qi for more than five years, you can obtain Qi status.
From now on, he is considered a Qiren.
If you join the army, you can change your identity directly as long as you gain military merit.
nowadays,
As Qi's economy becomes more and more developed, the feasting and feasting life in Linzi City attracts countless people.
Under this situation, a large number of people from neighboring countries came to Qi every day.
Han Lin wanted to completely absorb these people.
Population was a resource in ancient times!
........
the next day.
While recruiting troops,
Some new regulations were also printed in newspapers and distributed throughout Qi.
Of course,
Regarding the establishment of a database, Han Lin will definitely not make a big deal about it.
This matter must be kept strictly confidential.
Han Lin ordered Jinyiwei and Dongchang to be specially guarded.
As for what was printed in the newspaper, it was only about the naturalization systems of people from other countries.
Ye Mansion.
Ye Qingqiu looked at the recruitment content in the newspaper, his face filled with unstoppable joy.
When I first got up,
Ye Qingqiu still had a dark look on his face.
Because of being disliked by Han Lin yesterday, I couldn't sleep well all night.
Even if you fall asleep, you will be woken up by anger.
There he gnashed his teeth and cursed Han Lin constantly.
Unexpectedly, there was such a big surprise after I got up.
Recruiting soldiers is a trivial matter.
But it also depends on the circumstances under which soldiers are recruited.
Today's Qi State is at war with Zhao and Song at the same time.
The war situation is tense and new soldiers have to be recruited.
Moreover, Ye Qingqiu also knew that many major projects were currently underway in Qi State.
Such as the nationwide road construction, Han Lin's palace, Jinque Tower, and the expansion of Linzi City.
Every project requires hundreds of thousands of civilian workers to work.
But even so, Qi State did not stop fighting on two fronts.
Now,
Qi State actually continued to recruit troops.
This kind of militarism, wasting people and money, will definitely hurt the Qi country.
It may even make the people complain.
How could Ye Qingqiu not be happy about this kind of thing?
Her state of mind now is completely different from the one she had when she was first reborn.
