The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire Chapter 294: South Korea’s future

After all, the damage of the war was too great, even if it stops now, the villagers hiding in the mountains gradually come out, and production is slowly beginning to recover, but after all, the effect is not great!

According to the statistics of these officials, the current population of each of these eleven counties, through their efforts to collect and re-edit the records, is mostly only three or four thousand people per county.

Moreover, among these counties, most of them are women and children, old and weak, and few young and strong.

More serious, that is, South Korea still faces a serious problem. These many counties, including the Sancheon County just regained, and South Korea. Many counties and counties fell into famine, the people's homes had no surplus, and the localities were hungry.

These countless people open their mouths, waiting for the South Korean government's relief. If you leave them alone and let them fend for themselves, then South Korea will really exist in name only.

Even if these people are old and weak, they are at least some people, belonging to the exploited and ruled. If they don’t even have them, then South Korea doesn’t even have the basis for ruling. If the country does not rule the country, it will completely become a dead place.

The eleven counties regained had a total of 40,000 people, and the original more than ten counties in South Korea, after the raging of Qin and the exploitation of South Korea, the population was not retained much, on average one The county seat has only three to five thousand people.

With the dispatch of local officials again, the ruling foundation was once again established, and the demographics were restored again. It is concluded that in Korea, excluding the capital, there are only 80,000 people in the 13 counties and counties.

As for the capital of South Korea, due to the shelter of some refugees and the original population base there, despite the war and famine, another group of people starved to death.

So after all, it still maintains the level of 250,000. Although it is not as good as the previous 300,000, but in this world, it can barely be said to be a big city, worthy of his status as a kingdom in Korea.

Today, Korea’s national statistics show that there is only a population of 370,000 left, and the land has almost doubled, and many lost land have been regained.

However, the population obtained was only 1/3 of that before the war, and the young and strong men were almost wiped out. After the war subsided, all parts of the country, whether they were newly recovered or the original places, were restored to stability.

In order to consolidate his authority and maintain his own rule, King Han received only more than 20,000 soldiers and horses after re-recruiting a batch of new recruits, and most of them were fourteen-five-year-old children and fifty-sixty-year-old men. .

These new recruits rebuilt and regrouped an army with the 1,000 elite veterans left in Korea after the previous war ended. Obtained an ordinary soldiers and horses of about 25,000 people who were barely visible.

This is the foundation of South Korea’s rule today. It is obviously insufficient for 25,000 people to guard more than 20 cities in South Korea, and to resist the coercion of enemies from all directions.

Such a small number of people is enough to maintain law and order and rule.

However, South Korea is not in a desperate situation, he still has a way out.

In the current Sanchuan County of the Qin State, there are still twelve counties left, all of which are shrouded in the pass. They have not been affected by the war and maintain a complete production and economic system.

And most importantly, because Sanchuan County belongs to the old capital of the Zhou Dynasty and the homeland of South Korea, the scope of the conscription by Qin Guoqiang is not very large, only a little bit.

Therefore, in the entire Sanchuan County, among the 13 counties, except for the three Zhou dynasty homeland military training, many young men were forced to conquer. In the remaining ten counties, there are many young and strong, and the population is also relatively large.

In the entire Sanchuan County, after the intelligence detected by the spies is returned, after analysis by various parties, it is estimated that there will be a population of about 300,000 to 400,000.

Moreover, there are a lot of young men. If you count those fourteen to fifty or sixty years old, you should be able to recruit about 100,000 soldiers and horses.

Now the coalition forces have repelled the State of Qin. Next, as long as the Yu State is on the battlefield in the middle and dispatches him 50,000 to 60,000, he will be able to summon the army of Zhao Wei and Chu State.

At that time, there will be an army of five to six hundred thousand.

The Qin State cannot send the same number of troops.

In the current state of Qin, after the collapse of the battlefield on its own side, the rear has been faintly unstable, the barbarians in the Quartet are ready to move, and the survivors of the Six Nations in the country have different thoughts.

The local suppression also involved part of Qin's military strength. Now that it can actually be sent on the battlefield to confront the coalition forces head-on, I am afraid that even 300,000 will not be enough.

So in the current situation of Qin State, Yu Guo had a discussion with the other two countries, and finally concluded that Qin State should not dare to fight head-on Bashu's basic site, dare not to watch from the east.

Sancheon County, which was abandoned, is the closest to South Korea. And in the early days of the war, South Korea's contribution was not small, and this alliance was initiated with South Korea as the starting point.

So the rest of Sancheon County as compensation ~IndoMTL.com~ all to South Korea should not cause much response.

What's more, today's South Korea looks like it will be subjugated at any time, which really arouses the vigilance of other countries.

In the situation as it is today, neither the Qin State, the coalition forces, or even the Qi State hiding behind it will not allow a Warring States Seven Heroes to destroy Korea, which has been called for hundreds of years with them.

This is the situation. South Korea is destroyed. Then their demise will have a beginning and a sign, and they are extremely afraid of this result.

They are afraid that they will become the next South Korea, so they resolutely attack any country that dares to destroy any Sengoku Seven Heroes. For this, they can put aside all prejudices and unite. (=half-/float*-sheng+)www.banfusheng.com

It has nothing to do with emotions, hatred, but life and death.

So, in fact, in the current situation, even if the imperial kingdom does not propose to support South Korea, other countries will also propose that they are not like South Korea's demise.

And South Korea has acquired Sancheon County, plus some leftovers around it, will also become a big country with nearly fifty cities and thousands of miles of land.

And the population of South Korea will also return to more than 700,000, close to 800,000, and soldiers and horses can also return to about 150,000, of which about 30,000 are elites composed of young and strong.

Although most of them are old and weak, and their combat effectiveness is not very strong, it is not bad to be used for defense and to frighten others.

After all, 30,000 elite soldiers, and 150,000 soldiers, sound different. Who is more scary? Needless to say, all understand.

So, in the current situation, we can barely maintain this fragile balance, tacitly understanding each other.
