Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 5036 The problem with this sub...

Military management is stricter and more efficient in most management methods, but relatively speaking, military management is more restrictive and goes against the free and loose personality of human beings.

However, this is a feudal society. There is a choice between having enough to eat and being free. The easy way is of course militarized management.

The Ministry of Industry under the name of Sun Qian said it was a state-owned construction group. In fact, it is okay to call it a militia. Everyone has no experience. The most complete management policy for large groups with reference experience is of course Barracks.

Therefore, at the end of the second century and the beginning of the third century, the large state-owned enterprises run by Chen Xi were basically reduced by referring to the militia regulations. Large state-owned construction groups like Sun Qian even had a certain queue for drills every day. Otherwise, why would Chen Xi I will rest assured that Sun Qian will deal with those local chiefs who do not accept Wanghua in the mountainous area of ​​western Sichuan.

These people can't beat the regular army, and there is absolutely no problem in changing their armor to hunt miscellaneous fish.

If all these are counted, not to mention 200 million, 500 million are available, but these people cannot be transferred at will. These are the core strengths for Chen Xi to truly ensure the stable operation of the industrial chain. If the war is really fought, such people need to be transferred. At that time, the people's livelihood in the country must have been in decline.

Huangfusong didn't know about this, but Huangfusong knew about Chen Xi's treasury after treasury collection. Huangfusong was not too sure about other things, but the standard chain armor in his collection definitely exceeded 60. Well, this is It was calculated by Huangfu Song's treasury near Yecheng.

In Huangfusong's view, 60 armors, armed with 100 million troops, is no problem at all!In terms of coordination with other miscellaneous legions, the 200 million army, the Han Dynasty can make up.

Therefore, when Huangfu Song said this, some emperors heard the people say that they used gold poles, and they used yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, right, and perfunctory.

You guys really underestimate our Han Dynasty, it’s not me who blows it up for you, Chen Zichuan does the logistics for me, I can blow these guys across from you together!
"Finance Officer, we want to arm an army of 200 million..." Severus asked habitually, and Pompianus, who was standing, fell down on his seat when his eyes went dark. The daughter-in-law quickly reached out to support her, Severu curled her lips in displeasure, and I just asked, and you pretended to be dizzy before I finished speaking.

"Okay, don't make it difficult for the financial officer. It is not easy to maintain the current legion steadily." Caesar rarely persuaded a few words, even he felt that Severus's legion was too large. Outrageous, the Roman eagle flag and the barbarian army add up to more than 30. This is a standing army, but they are all paid for food. It’s not bad that Pompianus didn’t give you a strike.

"We need to weave two more eagle flags and six auxiliary soldiers." Severus replied habitually, and Pompianus, who was pretending to be dead, jumped up. Didn't we agree to weave only one eagle flag? Flag, three barbarian auxiliary soldiers?Why did it double.

"The eighth is not counted. It is necessary to grant citizenship to the returned brave men, and then give them the origin of the eagle flag, so we will make another 23 eagle flags and three auxiliary soldiers?" Severus said seriously. Pompianus explained.

Severus was really good to Pompianus, so he explained it anyway, and replaced it with someone else, I am the first citizen of Rome, explain it with a hammer, and execute it!
But it doesn’t work for Pompianus, and Severus is not stupid. He is just because of his military background and understands the difficulties of soldiers, so he pays soldiers more. It doesn’t mean that he doesn’t know how much he is paying. .

The military expenditures of the five good emperors were directly reduced to scum by Severus. Without the timely allocation of funds by the financial officer, Severus might really need to pay out of his own pocket like the official history.

Incidentally, this is also why Severus' time was the pinnacle of Roman military affairs.

As an emperor, when the government was unable to fulfill its promise, he paid everything out of his own pocket and plundered it from the Rest of the War. The part that belonged to the emperor was used for most of the next ten years except for the construction of new buildings. Yu distributed the rewards to the soldiers.

It doesn't matter whether the Senate supports such an emperor or not. The soldiers and legionaries really support it. Caracalla has done so many deaths, and in the end he was able to pass on Severus' inheritance. His father's reputation among the generals and soldiers.

In this life, Severus's payment for the soldiers can be carried out smoothly while maintaining the normal operation of the government. A very important point lies in the listed trade between the Han Dynasty and Rome, which has solved the problem of Severus to a great extent. Lu's military spending.

Originally, Pompianus’s idea was mainly to engage in silk, to curb the infinite appreciation of silk, because in the first century, Rome’s annual expenditure due to smuggling silk from various channels could reach or exceed [-] million Seth Tess.

This expenditure was enough to support twelve to fifteen full-stacked Eagle Banner regiments in the past. Yes, this was the military expenditure of twelve to fifteen full-stacked Eagle Banners in the past.

Now I understand why Pliny the Elder scolded his mother in his Roman history. To make a digression, the cursing belongs to his mother. Pliny the Elder himself also wore silk, which seemed to be red.

This is a problem that people with lofty ideals in Rome have complained about, but no one can solve it. After the rise of Persia in the later period of official history, the price of silk and gold hang upside down. Simply put, one pound of raw silk and one pound of gold, even the Romans Endure the burst of mentality and continue to buy.

While cursing that those who buy silk are traitors, they are capitalizing on the enemy, while continuing to buy silk.

Therefore, the purpose of Pompianus was very simple at the beginning, that is, to negotiate directly with the manufacturer for the pricing power of silk, so that he can get the best production technology, and if he can’t, don’t let the channel blackmail him.

After resting the distributors, Pompianus reduced the price of silk to one-third of the original price, and after another negotiation, it was reduced to one-fourth.

This price satisfies the Romans very much, but it can’t stand the collapse of the Romans’ demand, and the drop is the price of the previous middle and lower level silk, the top and tribute grades, and it’s gone. Rome spends more money on this every year than before. Because Roman citizens have also joined the game of chopping hands.

If Pompianus hadn't quickly found a substitute and paid purely with gold and silver coins, Chen Xi's interest in trading with Rome would have plummeted.

However, this is where the Roman financial officer excelled. He learned new operations from national trade, and naturally created a trade balance.

This is also an important reason why Severus has been messing around for a year, and Rome has not only not gone bankrupt, but also has a surplus. The balance of trade is beneficial to both parties.

By the way, silk and jade are no longer the most traded goods between Rome and the Han Dynasty. These two things are more like luxury goods. Instead, the main products are sugar, olive oil, wine, vanilla, and rosin. , myrrh resin, frankincense, dried fruit, things like that.

It doesn't seem to make much money, but in fact, the shipments of these items are very large, and the nature of the trade is more like transshipment one by one, and both parties are quite satisfied.

However, no matter how satisfied he is, and no matter how much more than 1 million yuan can be left on hand every year, Pompianus is still very resistant to Severus' approach.

Even because of Severus's resistance to spending money indiscriminately, Pompianus learned to invest money in the industry as soon as he got it without a teacher.

However, because this hand was discovered by Severus not long ago, and it was intercepted in advance, so that the Ninth Spanish Legion and the Seventh Loyalist Legion had the money to change their horses, and Pompianus was forced to develop it. new skills.

That is when my money has not yet arrived, I first ask someone to borrow money to invest in the industry I need in an emergency, and then wait for the money to be born and let him take it away, I don't believe you can keep it!
To be honest, at this point, Pompianus is really just a step away from the door. Unfortunately, this kick in Pompianus's thinking may never be able to change, because once it is changed, Pompianus It will be the first step to find that it has become the biggest cancer in Rome.

Therefore, the two sides are currently in a stalemate over military expenditures. Pompianus has already begun to borrow money to develop the Roman economy. This has happened before, so the other senators don’t think there is any problem. At most, they feel that they should be careful not to take too much , In the end, Pompianus and Severus jointly cut the leeks or something.

But Severus was thinking that I have already approved your daughter-in-law to be the commander of the army. Isn't it right for you and your son to raise an eighth army and three auxiliary soldiers?The extra money from the Eagle Banner Corps is the military expenses you allocated to me before.

Pompianus said that it was the first time I saw such a shameless guy, and he broke his perception of the first citizen of Rome time and time again. Shameless, too shameless.

Huangfusong looked at it inexplicably and cursed, then Caesar crossed his hands and supported his head, as if he didn't know that the backside had become a vegetable market, and continued to chat with Huangfusong indifferently, the Roman Senate, you have to be careful Fair and just, isn't it normal to scold?Fights happen from time to time.

There is no way, the elders of the Senate now support Severus, and there is no behavior that is too outrageous to be dealt with, so the problem can only be resolved in the form of a vote. Everyone is a citizen, and we must respect the citizenship law. Vote!
Huangfusong stared at the scene in front of him dumbfounded. It's not easy for your internal affairs to be so chaotic, and you still have this fighting power. There's a fight, it's really a fight!

　The advantages and disadvantages of the civil system are the above. Although it is a fake parliamentary system, it is indeed a parliamentary system.
