How many soldiers can be recruited in a month during the Three Kingdoms period

How many soldiers to recruit, you have to see whether it is a national recruitment or a private recruitment. Liu Bei relied on Zhang Shiping's funding to recruit two or three thousand people. How much was spent, it is not clear.

Cao Cao once scattered his wealth and recruited 5,000 people. How much was spent, it is also not clear. However, Cao Song used 10,000 yuan to buy a Taiwei to do it, and after buying the Taiwei, Cao Cao's funds were stretched, so he could only scatter his family wealth, which showed that there was not much left in the family.

If Cao Cao had 5,000 money left in his family, then 5,000 people were recruited. How much is 5,000 dollars worth? He Zeng of the Western Jin Dynasty had 10,000 yuan for a meal, which shows that labor is not very valuable.

Especially during the war years, when prices soared and displaced people were everywhere, after Cao Cao built Tuntian, he also paid these people wages and supported them, and they were happy to join the army.

How many people can be recruited in a month, it depends on where it is, if you are around Luoyang, it is good to recruit 10. In Yuan Shao's Jizhou, it is okay to recruit two or three thousand. Jizhou, with 100,000 armor, 10 years of valley branches.

The world's most valuable capital. Yuan Shao was just a Bohai Taishou ten years ago, and he counted 10,000 for him at the beginning of the army. After ten years of conquest, Zhang Yan, Kong Rong, and Gongsun Zan were eliminated, and with the addition of consumed and continuously recruited, the number increased by more than 90,000.

Recruit 10,000 people a year, more than 900 people a month. That's a monthly, every year, once in a while, there must be 5,000.

How much can be recruited in a month, it depends on which period of the Three Kingdoms, if it is "white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles", it can only attract air. Later, the economy of the north recovered, and in a large county, occasionally recruited people, about 2,3 thousand.

Money and food, the people's heart, is the key, you have to ask Zhuge Liang how much you can recruit.

According to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

At the height of the Wei state, the army was around 80-1 million.

In the heyday of Shu, the army was around 400,000-500,000.

At the height of Wu's heyday, the army was around 300,000-400,000.

In fact, it is the author's own brain supplement + imagination.

According to the records of the Three Kingdoms.

The population of the Three Kingdoms period was less than 10 million at the time of the return of the Three Kingdoms to Jin, that is, about 6 million in Wei, about 2.3 million in Wu, and more than one million in Shu.

According to the records of Shu, Deyizhou, after Hanzhong, Shu reached its peak, about 300,000 households, the population did not exceed 3 million at most, after the loss of Jingzhou, there were a lot less, there were about 200,000 households on the sky, that is, 2 million people, except for women can not be soldiers, in addition to 0-13 years old can not be soldiers, the total number can have 70-800,000 is about the same, according to the principle of five Ding one in the late Shu Kingdom, the army can have 15 to 160,000 people at most, but this number is the limit number, Any more nations will perish naturally.

Because agriculture in ancient times had to be cultivated by a large number of people, otherwise the country would collapse if there was no food, so in ancient times, wars had to be carried out after the autumn harvest and before the spring ploughing.

According to this inference, the army at the peak of Shu was about 200,000 people, and after losing Jingzhou, it was up to 150,000, and Zhuge Liang's continuous conquest led to a decrease in the elite population of Shu, and Jiang Wei's Northern Expedition was generally 3-40,000 people, plus this number of those left behind, and there were 6-80,000 troops at the end of the period.

The army of Wei at its peak was about 35-400,000 people, and it was 250,000 in the later period.

The number of troops of Wu after obtaining Jingzhou should be more than that of Shu, about 200,000, and 100,000 at the end of the period.

Wei and Wu are not as miserable as Shu, most of these two countries are seven to eight strong men who are drawn to join the army to fight, and they are not as frequent as Shu's sword soldiers, and most of the time they are in the defensive stage, and ** is also smaller.

Wei: The total number of troops is about 40-450,000, 6-70,000 in Yongliang on the western front, 100,000 in Jingyu on the southern line, 100,000 in Xuyang on the eastern front, and 10-150,000 in Luoyang and its strongholds.

Shu: The total strength is about 10-130,000, 50,000 in Hanzhong on the northern front, 2-30,000 in Yong'an on the eastern front, and 3-50,000 strongholds in Chengdu.

Wu: The total number of troops is about 200,000-250,000, and they are mainly deployed in strongholds along the Yangtze River such as Misukou and Nanjun.

Indefinitely, there are many fewer battles, and there are more soldiers who have been raised for more than ten years, at most once, the Battle of Chibi, Cao Cao's 800,000 army, may actually only be 600,000.
