Chapter 0129 The rubber smoothbore gun with a range of 200 meters stunned Huan Zheng and Zhu Yuanzhang!!
After eating and drinking, Lan Yu and others opened the nightlife mode of Xi'an Province.
If the group of officials who stayed in Yingtianfu knew that Zhang Zhen, Shangshu of the Tangtang Hubu, actually followed Lan Yu's gang of Huaixi Xungui to call brothers and brothers in Xi'an Mansion, eating and drinking, I don't know what kind of expression it would be!
On the other side, Zhu Li also accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, and took a large group of people to wander the streets of Xi'an Prefecture.
The old man said that to see the nightlife in Xi'an Province today, Zhu Li naturally arranged it properly!
The group all changed into civilian clothes, plus this is Xi'an Mansion, Zhu Li and they don't show up often, but no one on the street can recognize their identities.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao naturally liked this feeling of being close to the people, and they were even more happy!
"What is the population of Xi'an Prefecture today?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the grand situation on the street, and couldn't help but ask Zhu Li on the side.
"Just before the New Year, I counted once, counting the floating population who came to Xi'an Prefecture for business, there were about 2.8 million people."
"Resident population registration, in more than 400,000 households, 2.2 million people!"
Zhu Li explained with a smile.
"So, the floating population coming to Xi'an Prefecture alone is as many as 600,000?"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was still surprised!
You must know that Yingtianfu, as the land of Jingshi Division, the annual floating population size is only a hundred thousand!
The total population of Yingtian has not exceeded one million so far!
Although the reason why the population of Xi'an Prefecture is so large is mainly due to historical problems, and the original population is large, but so many floating population is what Zhu Yuanzhang did not expect!
"That's right, there are probably tens of thousands of them alone!"
"In addition, there are many caravans of floating population, this part accounts for the majority, and many of them have arranged people to stay here in Xi'an Prefecture all year round!" Convenient for business! "
Zhu Li continued to explain.
"Lao Jiu, you told us before that you want to abolish the yellow book system, have you ever thought about how to manage the population of so many Daming?"
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang directly mentioned the issue of the abolition of the yellow book system.
When Zhu Biao on the side heard this, his ears immediately pricked up.
He was also curious about what kind of method Lao Jiu would have to solve this problem!
"Simple, make a household registration book for each household and make an ID card for everyone!"
Zhu Li directly moved out the set of later generations!
"Family register and ID card?"
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao couldn't help but glance at each other, obviously both looking a little confused.
Zhu Li patiently explained the concepts of household registration book and ID card directly to the two!
The household registration book is the overall statistics of a household, while the ID card is to prove the identity of the individual!
In addition, when the floating population arrives in the local area, they can use their own ID card and apply for a local residence permit!
Only if you have a residence permit, you can register for work in a non-domicile place!
After three years of residence permit, you can also choose to transfer your family registration directly!
As long as the government registers this information clearly, it will naturally be able to calculate the size of the local permanent population and floating population!
Count the number of people in the household registration book or ID card, or the number of people with residence permits, and you can count them!
And this set of methods has been first implemented in the Northwest Territories, and the current effect is quite good, everything is in order!
"What if someone tampers with or falsifies an identity document?"
After listening to Zhu Li's method, Zhu Biao felt that this method was indeed quite good, but at the same time, he also raised questions!
"Then there must be a corresponding punishment and strict investigation system!"
"The patrol team in the city will check the identity of the foreigners from time to time, including every household registration book and ID card is registered in the official office of the place of residence, and the personal ID card will also be stamped with the official seal!"
"Those who forge official seals and tamper with their ID cards will not only be jailed for yourself, but also sit together with your family members who were originally on the same household registration book as you, and will not be hired by enterprises for at least five years, and lose all policy and welfare support."
"To put it bluntly, if you commit an incident alone, everyone in your family has to follow you unlucky!"
Zhu Li explained with a smile.
"So it is!"
Zhu Biao nodded abruptly.
"So how do you distinguish between household registration? Daming's yellow book can at least distinguish the class of farmers, farmers, industry and commerce, and identify their identities, do you have such a registration in this household registration book and identity card? "
Zhu Yuanzhang asked again at this time.
"Nope! According to this set of methods of children, there is no household registration division such as agriculture, industry and commerce, the most important thing is only divided into two types, one is urban hukou, and the other is rural hukou! "
"The urban hukou can get all the basic resident benefits in this town! Rural hukou, on the other hand, has more land allocation! There are no fields in the town hukou! "
"That's the only difference!"
"Of course, city dwellers can go to the countryside to rent land from farmers, or contract land, and this requires money!"
Zhu Li explained with a smile.
"Welfare? What benefits? "
Zhu Yuanzhang asked in surprise.
"For example, education welfare, local urban hukou education in the school is free!"
"Medical benefits, you can enjoy the medical subsidies of the government!"
"For example, if you originally need to spend 100 yuan to see a doctor, the government subsidizes half of it, and you only need to spend 50 yuan!"
"For example, when buying a house, you can enjoy an installment mortgage!"
"This is the welfare of the urban hukou!"
Zhu Li directly said some of the existing welfare policies.
"It means that the government pays for subsidies?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's brows immediately furrowed.
"Indeed, in addition to the taxes paid to the state treasury every year, the government will also have a fixed part of the fiscal revenue, which is used for the distribution of these benefits!"
"As a result, the people's lives are better, their pockets are more bulging, the economic benefits will naturally rise, and the taxes will be more!"
"The extra tax revenue will take out a part to subsidize the people, and such a benign development can develop the economy and people's livelihood at the same time!"
Zhu Li talked to Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, he naturally had a way to deal with this problem, and he knew that Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely ask!
"So it is!"
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded abruptly.
Soon, the topic was revealed.
Zhu Li accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao to see the night scene of Xi'an Mansion today, and then went directly back to the palace to rest.
After all, he had to rush back to Hanzhong Mansion early the next morning.
Early in the morning, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao both got up early.
This time, Zhu Yuanzhang's entourage directly stayed outside Xi'an Prefecture, and the supply problem was naturally the Hanzhong army on Zhu Li's side was responsible, and there was no need to worry about it, and Zhu Li specially brought eight hundred Hanzhong elite light horses to guard all the way, and there was no need to worry about safety at all!
In the northwest land, the old man has to bring tens of thousands of people as guards when he travels, that is really hitting him in the face of the Han King Zhu Li!
What's more, there are Jiang Ying and hundreds of brocade guards accompanying him!
Together with Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial car, four luxurious carriages, plus a lineup of all the accompanying horses, from Xi'an Mansion to Hanzhong Mansion, that is, the morning and sunset, you can arrive before the sun sets!
The team set off again for Hanzhong Province.
And Lan Yu and a group of Huaixi Xungui, riding on their horses at the moment, looked at the eight hundred elite Hanzhong light horses in front of them, with a shocked look on their faces!
Is the armor rate of this Hanzhong army so high?
Not to mention that all the personnel are armoured, the war horses are all good horses of the Western Regions, and it is not a problem to travel hundreds of miles a day!
There are many war horses that are still unique to the grassland region, and as a great general, Yu Mu can recognize the difference between these horses and Daming's existing war horses!
Not to mention the rest, the war horses raised in the Western Regions and the grassland region are much stronger than Daming's!
I heard that the Hanzhong Army is the system of all-staff cavalry, it seems that it is not wrong!
Moreover, this cavalry is also divided into light cavalry and heavy cavalry!
Among them, heavy cavalry is the most precious, because the war horse will also be covered with battle armor, he can be said to be a half-horse!
It seems that there are really a lot of iron tools in this Han!
And there must be a lot of blacksmiths, otherwise it would not be possible to supply so many armor and weapons!
Not only did Lan Yu notice this, even Zhu Yuanzhang, after seeing the Hanzhong Army, he couldn't help but notice this aspect!
He was still thinking about the sharp firearms that Lao Jiu could create later, but looking at the current equipment on the Hanzhong Army, it seemed that there was no shadow of those firearms, not even the fire bolts of the Ming Dynasty, which made Zhu Yuanzhang full of questions!
"Old Jiu, let's see that the equipment used by your Hanzhong army seems to be far from the imperial court army?"
"Why not equip the army with firearms?"
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but ask.
"Father Emperor doesn't know something, when facing the Tatar cavalry, the firing range is insufficient, and it is especially troublesome to reload ammunition!"
"If you really want to use the fire bolt against the enemy, the ammunition here has not been loaded, and the people's war horses may have rushed in front of you!"
"So the Fire Bolt is not suitable for the Hanzhong Army!"
Zhu Li explained with a smile.
"Oh? So what do you think of to replace the fire bolt? "
Zhu Yuanzhang's heart suddenly moved, thinking of simply guiding the topic to a sharp firearm such as a flintlock gun.
Zhu Lixin said that there are naturally things that replace the fire hammer!
Flintlock guns and rifles are already under development, and it won't take long to produce them, but the problem is that before the old man's attitude towards him is determined, he naturally can't easily show such a hole card!
"Naturally, there is!"
"The children specially developed a repeating crossbow, this kind of crossbow and the long bow equipped by the imperial army is different, can install six arrows at a time, and does not need to rely on brute force to shoot, after the crossbow is loaded, riding on horseback, can be operated with one hand, very convenient!"
Zhu Li said, and directly asked Geng Qing to take a repeating crossbow used by the Hanzhong Army and demonstrated it to Zhu Yuanzhang!
At the mention of the crossbow, Yingzheng, who had been hidden in Zhu Li's body, couldn't help it!
As we all know, the former Great Qin Empire had two weapons that were the most developed!
One is a sword, and the other is a crossbow!
Speaking of swords, the enthusiasm of previous dynasties for swords, I am afraid that no one can compare to Qin Shi Huang to win the government!
And Daqin's crossbow array is a resounding existence in history, invincible and unfavorable, almost invincible existence!
Whether it is a light crossbow, a heavy crossbow, or a repeating crossbow, Daqin has a dabbling!
It's just that many craftsmanship and technology are gradually lost later!
It was like the smelting technology of the pre-Qin dynasty, Master Ou Yezi forged so many swords at that time, but even after one or two thousand years have passed, no one can imitate such superb forging technology!
This is the loss of technology!
"Housheng, what is the range of your powerful crossbow?"
Yingzheng couldn't help but ask at this time.
"Hanzhong crossbow, with a range of about 280 steps!"
Zhu Li explained that 280 steps, which is about 160-180 meters away!
"So far?"
Ying Zheng was also taken aback when he heard this!
You must know that this is a powerful crossbow that can be shot with one hand, with a distance of nearly three hundred steps, even when he is at the peak of Daqin!
Although it is not a problem for many crossbows in Daqin to shoot thousands of steps, they are basically strong crossbows, heavy crossbows, and such a small repeating crossbow is absolutely impossible!
At this moment, Ying Zhengdu had doubts about Daqin's crossbow-making process!
But soon he was relieved!
After all, more than a thousand years have passed, and it seems that it is not unacceptable that the powerful crossbow invented in later generations can reach such a height!
"Before that, I saw that the imperial army brought by your emperor Laozi, and many people with a stick, what kind of test weapon?"
At this time, Ying Zheng remembered a thing that looked like a burning stick that he had seen yesterday when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang's accompanying army, and asked curiously.
"That is the fire bolt, which King Ben explained to the old man just now, the kind of firearm that has a range of only about a hundred paces and is very troublesome to load!"
Zhu Li explained directly.
When Yingzheng heard this, he was immediately speechless!
This imperial court army's fire bolt is actually not as powerful as the crossbow, and the range within this hundred steps is too chicken, right?
"This thing is indeed not as powerful as a crossbow, but this thing can be equipped by all members!"
"The pull of ordinary crossbows, recruits have not been trained for a period of time, don't even think about pulling away, let alone accurate heads!"
Many people have a misconception about archers, that is, they think that close combat can restrain archers, which is very wrong!
The physical strength and arm strength of the archers are quite amazing, but it is not a soft persimmon among the tens of thousands of troops, it is very good to have thousands of crossbowmen!
But what if tens of thousands of people are equipped with fire bolts?
Yingzheng also fell silent after listening to Zhu Li's explanation.
It seems to be such a truth, if tens of thousands of fire soldiers come to a volley, then it is really unbearable!
At this moment, after Zhu Yuanzhang checked the repeating crossbow equipped by the Hanzhong army again, he was also amazed.
But disappointment is inevitable!
This crossbow is good, but it's not the flintlock gun he wants to see!
"In addition to this powerful crossbow, are there other weapons that are a little sharper?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked impatiently.
"Back to my father, my sons and daughters are also recently developing a rubber smoothbore bow, which is a crossbow weapon that can be loaded with a foot pedal!"
"And the range of this rubber smoothbore bow has been experimentally found to be able to reach about 400 steps!"
Zhu Li nodded, the distance of 400 steps is more than two hundred meters!
At present, Zhu Li has already made a batch of them to equip the city's guard patrol, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in the future, which should further improve the range and power!
A smoothbore slingshot, also known as a slingshot gun, is with a butt, the pull is five times higher than that of a normal slingshot, and it requires stretching with your foot to load!
Smoothbore slingshot, and one called slingshot crossbow!
In the later life, the wooden slingshot that others played with when he was an hour later was made of two rubber bands, and Zhu Que now made it directly with eight rubber bands!
"Rubber smoothbore bow?"
"Is it made of rubber?"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was even more surprised.
This is really the first time he has heard of this thing, and he didn't expect that rubber actually has such a use!
"That's right, that's why the children let the imperial court plant a large number of rubber trees in Qiongzhou!"
"It's almost a year now, and the rubber trees have to be five or six years old before they can be harvested, but it's still too late!"
When Zhu Li talked about the problem of rubber, he was also a little helpless.
"Then all these glues you got before were obtained from Yunnan?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
"That's when the children were in the domain, so they let people take them to Yunnan to find a suitable environment to plant them, and that's it, and the yield is not high!"
"But wait four or five years, when the rubber trees in Qiongzhou have grown, then the problem of insufficient rubber will be alleviated!"
Zhu Li slowly nodded and explained.
"So that's what happened!"
"Then there are more!"
"Since Yunnan can, there should be many suitable places in the two Guangzhous, right? Turn back and plant in Liangguang and beg! "
Zhu Yuanzhang has also begun to plant rubber now, naturally thinking that the more he plantes, the better!
In this way, the father and son chatted all the way, and before the sun set that day, they finally arrived outside Hanzhong City!
Seeing Hanzhong City from a distance, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao's eyes couldn't help but show shock!
