But Emperor Zhu was not particularly satisfied with the plan proposed by Liu Heming.

There is no other reason. It is simply because the war work has been done by those short-skinned men in Japan. What else can the Ming army do? If the Ming army does not go to the front line to fight, should we, the emperor, command a group of short-skinned men to fight?

Just as Emperor Zhu was thinking about how to go out for a while, Liu Heming continued: "Just to flatten the entire small ball, the number of existing troops in our Ming Dynasty is somewhat insufficient. I think another million army should be recruited."

The lack of existing military forces in the Ming Dynasty is obvious, because neither Emperor Zhu nor the Ming court could spend all the tax revenue on military expenditures.

On the contrary, Emperor Zhu and the Ming Dynasty have always used the bulk of taxes to use in infrastructure, social studies, literacy and other aspects, and have actually allocated military expenses to the Governor's Office of the Five Army, which is even less than one-tenth of the taxes to be paid next year.

The insufficient military expenditure allocated to the Governor's Office of the Five Army naturally means that the number of Ming troops will not be large. There is naturally no problem in ensuring the safety of the Ming Dynasty, but if it is said to open the entire small break ball, it will not be enough.

Emperor Zhu nodded, and was about to say something, but Liu Huaiwen, the Minister of Revenue, who was in charge of the Ming Dynasty Treasury, shouted first: "Three billion! The Ministry of Revenue only has the 3 billion dragon yuan military expenditure to allocate, and there is no extra penny!"

Just after he finished speaking, Liu Huaiwen felt something was wrong, and Liu Heming's face turned dark with a speed that could be done with the naked eye.

Three billion dragon yuan, which is converted into silver is 300 million taels.

Suppose a soldier’s monthly military salary is 100 dragon yuan, a million soldiers’ monthly military salary is 100 million dragon yuan, and a year is 1.2 billion dragon yuan.

This only calculates military pay, not other costs that the army needs to spend.

For example, the standard ordnance of the Ming soldiers includes a firing gun and a bayonet, and supplies include a kettle, two sets of military uniforms in spring and autumn, two pairs of military boots in spring, summer and winter, a battlefield first aid kit, and others include a lot of bedding, towels, washbasins, ammunition required for training, etc.

Adding up these messy things, each soldier will have to spend an additional 100 dragon yuan or even higher. If it were the Imperial Guards and Soren Camp stationed in the capital, the ammunition cost needed to be paid will be even more rolling.

If you add food expenses...

In other words, 3 billion dragons can indeed be used to recruit millions of troops, but it is only enough to recruit millions of troops and complete training. However, if this millions of troops pushes the entire small break ball, that is pure and nonsense.

Zeng Cheng and other bigwigs suddenly came back to the taste. Emperor Zhu even looked at Liu Huaiwen and asked: "Is Uncle Huaiwen's 3 billion dragon yuan available this month? Or can it be allocated this year? Or can it be allocated for a total of 3 billion dragon yuan available this time? "

Liu Huaiwen said: "These 3 billion dragon yuan can be allocated to the Governor's Office tomorrow, but this year can only be allocated so much. If the full opening of the small ball will end this year, then the 3 billion yuan is prepared for the entire war. If we still fight next year..."

Speaking of this, Liu Huaiwen's face became a little ugly: "Another 3 billion can be allocated next year. If you squeeze out the budgets of other departments, you can probably squeeze out another 2 billion."

"That is to say, an additional military expenditure of up to 5 billion yuan will be allocated next year, but railways and other infrastructure will have to be slowed down slightly, and the construction period will be delayed at least one month."

Emperor Zhu nodded, turned his head and looked at Liu Heming and asked, "By your calculations, how long will it take for this small-bang-breaking war to end?"

Liu Heming thought about it secretly and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I think this small break-up game will not last more than two years. First, no other country can afford to delay it, and second, there is not so much Dingkou for consumption."

Emperor Zhu nodded again, and after a nod, he began to knock on the table slowly, and was constantly thinking in his heart.

Although Alexander and Paul III discussed calling on other countries on the Little Break to attack the Ming Dynasty together, don’t forget that there are many countries on the Little Break that are tied to the Ming Dynasty like France. Once the film is fully opened, these countries will be the help of the Ming Dynasty. If Alexander, Mahmoud II, and Franz II choose to attack the Ming Dynasty from land, they will have to face attacks from France and other pro-Ming countries.

It is not possible to attack from the sea.

The Ming Dynasty not only had a large number of overseas military bases, but also the important maritime roads such as Old Port, Lan Fang, and Tianzhu were also controlled by the Ming Dynasty. In addition, the Ming Dynasty's warships were about half a generation ahead of England. Once a naval battle occurred, the English navy under George III would have to be passively beaten.

This time, the small break-up kicked off the film, and the Ming Dynasty was basically invincible, and it could slowly spend time with Alexander and Paul III.

On the other hand, England, Sand Goose, Ottoman and other countries that want to attack the Ming Dynasty dare not continue to waste such a waste.

First of all, the Ming Dynasty has been lying on other countries in the small ball and sucking blood over the years. The economic conditions of those small countries have long been ruined, and being able to support them for one or two years is overestimating them.

The second reason is what Liu Heming mentioned.

There are not so many Dingkous to consume!

This is the most unsolvable problem. Apart from the Ming Dynasty, no country on the entire small ball can face this problem directly - although it is said that the economy is fighting in war, the problem is that no matter how good the economy is, it must be someone, right?

The Ming Dynasty now has a population of more than 500 million. Even if it is more than 300 million, there are women and 200 million men. Only 20% are young and strong of the right age. Only half of these 20% can go to the battlefield. Then the Ming Dynasty also has a total of 20 million young and strong who can fight.

And what about the other countries? It is hard to say whether the population of their entire country is 20 million.

Even if the Ming army was completely destroyed, the technology tree of the barbarians of Europa was directly pointed to the level of level equal to the Ming Dynasty, and the battlefield exchange ratio was as high as one, and Alexander and George III could not afford to change - if the number of casualties was so large that their own country could be in chaos first!

Therefore, for the monarchs of Europa countries such as Alexander and George III, this war of breaking the ball in full swing would be best ended in two years or even one year.

Thinking of this, Emperor Zhu couldn't help but smile and shook his head, and then turned his eyes to Song Yucheng, the Minister of Works, and said: "Song Qing, if we want to build the railway in the Ming Dynasty, how many labors will it take?"

But what Emperor Zhu didn't expect was that Song Yucheng not only failed to give a clear answer, but even secretly complained that it was almost the same? What does it mean? Your Majesty? Can the construction of railways in the 18 provinces of Han require as many labor as the construction of the entire Ming railway? Can the repair of single-line railways require as many labor as the rest of the railway?

Besides, even if the Ming army is invincible in the world, you can catch a lot of workers by any country, but after you catch them, you can't support them? Will you have to spend money to support them? No matter how much money you save, these workers cannot pile them all on the same construction site at the same time, right?

Also, the territory of our Ming Dynasty is increasing every year, Your Majesty! Every time an extra piece of land is released, the Ministry of Industry needs to plan an extra piece of railway, and the number of labor required will also increase simultaneously...

After secretly complaining, Song Yucheng bowed and replied, "Your Majesty, if we build all the existing territory of our Ming Dynasty, the labor force will probably be 100,000, and the construction period will be 30 years."

Emperor Zhu, who had just wanted to say "I will catch you enough laborers this time" after Song Yucheng said this and felt helpless.

Now all the mouths on the entire small break ball are only more than one billion. Song Yucheng is so good. If you open your mouth, you will be a hundred million workers?

Do you think I look like a laborer?

After couldn't help but curse a few words in his heart, Emperor Zhu simply raised his finger and knocked on the table, saying, "Then the farce will end within a year."

Liu Heming was stunned and couldn't help but bow and asked, "Your Majesty, if it is to end within a year, I'm afraid that it would be a place where England, Shagee and his army come?"

This is also an obvious matter.

The area of ​​the small ball is not big, but it is not small. Although the Ming Dynasty is directly bordering with Shagee and Ottoman, it is afraid that the army will have to go through land to start a year or two. When they arrive at the place, they will start a stable place after the film is opened. I am afraid that this time will take several more months?

More importantly, there may be many countries that want to attack the Ming Dynasty. It is not realistic to divide troops to attack so many countries. At least one year is far from enough.

Therefore, the best solution is to allow Alexander and George III to tangle other countries on the ball, let them attack the Ming Dynasty from the sea, and then defeat it from the sea.

Only in this way can the Ming Dynasty end this war within one year.

However, what Liu Heming did not expect was that Emperor Zhu actually sighed and said with regret: "After Alexander and George III were struggling to break the ball into other countries, our Ming Dynasty's military bases overseas will be dispatched directly."

"Those who are closer to Sand Goose attack directly, while those who are closer to England will attack directly. In short, they will attack who is closer to whom they are closer to, and directly help them change their dynasty."

"In this way, this war can be completed without a year."

Liu Heming was suddenly confused.

According to Emperor Zhu's way of playing, this war can indeed be resolved in less than a year.

As the saying goes, the snake is not good enough. The military bases of the Ming Dynasty overseas are mainly distributed in the Europa area. It is quite convenient to try England and Sand Goose, Ottoman and Habsburg. They use these sticks to kill monkeys and chickens. On the small break ball, the other countries can only kneel down and shout long live.

The problem is that this does not match the original plan.

He was passionately planning to use the Ming Dynasty to fight the entire small breaking ball alone, and even planned to push the entire small breaking ball to tie. Why did he suddenly transform and play the trick of capturing the thief first?

Looking at Liu Heming's confused look, Emperor Zhu couldn't help but sigh again and said hatefully: "The Ming Dynasty still needs labor!"

"I believe that the Ming army has the strength to push the entire small ball with a tie, and I also believe that the Ming Dynasty can kill all other countries. The problem is that I cannot push the entire small ball with a tie now."

"So, I can only use England and Shagee to kill the monkey and the others to warn the chicken."

Speaking of this, Emperor Zhu's voice even became a little resentful: "The barbarian army is all young and strong, and they are the best candidates for labor. If all of you were killed by the capital, wouldn't our Ming railway be delayed..."

Liu Heming was very sad.

Today, another day of losing a lot of generals and lords...

I don’t care whether to kill the chicken to warn the monkey or kill the monkey to warn the chicken.

However, just when Liu Heming was secretly hurt, Emperor Zhu continued to knock on the table and said, "After killing the monkeys and those chickens are scared to be honest, your five army governors' office will name them one by one and bleed them."

After Emperor Zhu said this, Liu Heming couldn't help but bow and asked again: "What does Your Majesty mean?"

Emperor Zhu snorted coldly and said, "I have said just now that our Ming Dynasty still needs labor."

"I really can't kill monkeys and chickens directly now, because the more I kill, the more workers our Ming Dynasty will lose."

"But I don't plan to let them go - I can't kill them together, so I will kill them slowly. If I kill one or two in a year, I believe that the Jinyiwei can find sufficient reasonable evidence."

...

Just as Emperor Zhu was thinking about how to get out of this anger, Alexander, who had just returned to the sand goose, felt like he was husky.

At the beginning, Alexander and the bearded artists agreed to share Polish cousins ​​together, but in fact, the bearded artists took over the Polish cousins ​​alone and Sand Goose killed the Ottoman.

This agreement was implemented very well at the beginning. The bearded artist did send troops to Poland and the Shage did use troops to fight against the Ottomans.

Even though Sha Ge was later made a human being by the Ming Cult, Alexander still did not regret the promise he had made.

He even had the courage to confuse George III, Mahmoud II, Franz II and others to attack the Ming Dynasty.

But I never expected that before Alexander and George III and others went to win over the other countries separately, the Austrian bearded artist started attacking the Sand Goose without saying a word!
Chapter completed!
