Bulgarian Empire

Ideas are beautiful, reality is cruel!

The most urgent task for the Bulgarian government is to calculate the military exploits as soon as possible, and then entrust a group of military service classes to the newly occupied areas to strengthen their control over the locality!

Originally, Ferdinand planned to engage in an agrarian revolution, but after calculating it was not cost-effective, he finally gave up!

Leading half a step is advanced, one step ahead is martyrs!

Ferdinand can't do dead things! Besides, if the land is divided, what will he use to buy the military spirit?

If everyone is treated the same, it will definitely be unfair to those who support Bulgaria.

People put their heads on their waistbands, you are born to death, but in the end you get the same treatment as those who have done nothing. What do people think?

Don't mention ideals and doctrines. These are all nonsense. Ferdinand knows why so many people are willing to support Bulgaria.

In addition to the hatred of the Ottoman Empire, the bigger reason is for profit!

The Ottoman nobles controlled almost all their interests, and the people at the bottom were always in an oppressed position, and there was no way for them to rise.

Bulgaria is an emerging country and there are too many opportunities for everyone to choose! And when the intelligence department pulled people, they promised generous returns. Otherwise, there would be no benefit. Who would work so hard?

Ferdinand knows that the core of the driving force supporting the continuous exhibition in Bulgaria is-fairness! Rights and obligations are equal, leaving ordinary people with a channel for rising!

Therefore, Ferdinand did not hesitate to confiscated the land of the Ottoman nobles and landlords!

But the next land allocation, in addition to supporting Bulgaria before, or helping the army or the intelligence department, you can get a share of the contribution according to the size of the contribution!

The rest is the soldiers who have made merits in this war! Including the local guerrillas, volunteers and ten temporary divisions recruited by Bulgaria, they are eligible to share the benefits!

Even so, there are not a few land to be allocated this time!

I don't know, I was surprised! According to estimates by the Bulgarian Statistics Office, the land to be rewarded this time is as large as nearly one million hectares!

The idea of ​​lowering the reward standard flashed through Ferdinand's mind. The credibility that he has built up over ten years can never be left behind for some small profits!

Anyway, these lands were taken from the enemy, and if you divide it, you will divide it. He won't hurt him!

Moreover, the Ottoman Empire was an agricultural country under the feudal aristocratic system, and the degree of land annexation was beyond Ferdinand’s imagination. The nobles controlled more than 80% of the land in the Balkans, but these are now cheaper than Ferdinand!

In terms of value alone, the land is enough to cover the entire cost of this war, and it is estimated that it will not be less than 8 million hectares!

Of course, this figure also includes a large number of mountains. The land in the plain area may only occupy six or seven floors of the total land!

...

After thinking about it, Ferdinand decided to confirm the rewards of the frontline soldiers first, and announce it to comfort the military, and the officers can suppress it!

"Order the troops to go directly to the public after verifying the soldiers' merits and rewards in accordance with the regulations of the Bulgarian Military Merit Award Regulations and in accordance with our pre-established standards!"

...

With an order from Ferdinand, all the troops began to get busy, and the verification of military achievements was very troublesome!

Entering the era of thermal weapons is enough, the simple use of grade memory is out of date. Bullets can kill the enemy hundreds of meters away, and artillery can wipe out the enemy several miles away. This part is difficult to count!

Therefore, collective military merit, based on the performance on the battlefield, is reasonably distributed, and it has become the mainstream of the modern army!

First Army Command, now the commander of the army Popov and Chief of Staff Petrov are beginning to worry!

In the past, in order to attract people to join the army, they came up with the most primitive and most acceptable judging criteria based on the number of enemies killed. The effect is very significant, but the sequelae are also very serious!

It is difficult to count military merits, there are too many disputes, and in many cases it is impossible to determine the specific merits.

then what should we do? Of course it is a fight, these can all be converted into fertile black land! The question is who should I give it to now?

Don't say that the military judge who counts the merits is not clear about the situation. It is estimated that even the person involved is still in the mind now, but he feels that it may be his own, so go and fight!

Anyway, it's the public saying that the public is reasonable, and the mother-in-law says the mother is reasonable! The military judge who counts the exploits is not Holmes, and he does not have such a strong detective ability!

...

"How's the battle statistics done?" Popov asked

Petrov sighed and said: "Except for the temporary division, all other troops have been counted!"

Popov asked suspiciously: "What kind of moth appeared in the temporary teacher?"

Petrov looked at Popov bitterly, and said: "You are the chief military officer. You don't need your participation in these troublesome things. No one dares to bother you! I'm miserable, and I'm harassed by them every day!

Up to now, the military performance statistics of temporary divisions have been carried out less than half, and now the people underneath are about to fight for their military achievements!

The most important thing is that many times many bullets hit the enemy at the same time. Now we can't be sure who killed it. At this moment, for rewards, the soldiers are not giving way to each other! "

Popov thought for a while and said: "It seems that this primitive method of statistical warfare is now completely behind the times!

Or you can simply count the determined achievements and put aside all the controversial achievements, and talk about it later! "

Petrov nodded and said: "It can only be the case now, otherwise there will be no results after a few months!"

Sure enough, as soon as the result came out, it was a few happy and sad! Of course, you don’t need to think about controversial military merits. The army is a serious place, and it is absolutely forbidden to pretend to be leading military merits. If you don’t know it, no one wants it!

These don't affect everyone's mood now, this fair and open approach has even more convinced ordinary soldiers!

Those who are lucky may get a dozen hectares of land, and they are celebrating now; those who are lucky, oh, they don’t have to worry even more, they have already gone to see God now!

Of course, these lands are all in name. To obtain the land, you must return to the local area and find the government department to divide it on the spot.

It may take several months, but this does not hinder their excitement!

Even the one with the least harvest has at least a consolation prize. Basically, the collective contribution is made by everyone. If you don't get the land, you can get a bonus!

Facts have proved that Ferdinand’s measures are effective. As soon as the military awards were announced, he gained another wave of fans. All the rewards were given in the name of the king!

Anyone who has obtained the land has become an iron supporter of Ferdinand at this moment!

Ferdinand had to be fortunate. Fortunately, the Balkans are mostly backward agricultural economic systems, otherwise this military exploit will be abolished!

In order to be able to further control the new territory, especially in the Albania region with the least influence in Bulgaria, Ferdinand decided to introduce the "Military Service Difference Compensation Method"!

To put it simply, Bulgarian soldiers who have obtained military service are willing to go to Albania to obtain land, so they can get an extra piece of land. Because of their insufficient military service, they are allowed to pay for the difference!

Of course, this price is much lower than the market price! And in principle, the increased territory must not be twice as much as its own military field, otherwise it will not enjoy the half-tax treatment of military field!

This can be regarded as a change of direction to encourage immigration! No way, who said there are fewer people in Albania now? Most of the people have been deported, so you can't let the land go deserted right now!

Land in Bulgaria is not cheap now. Because the government holds a large amount of land and has not put it on the market, coupled with the conservative Bulgarian folk customs, many families regard land as their lifeblood. Choose to sell land!

This has resulted in the scarcity of land circulating in the market in Bulgaria. In addition, in order to curb land mergers, the government has set up a high land transaction tax, which has invisibly increased the land price!

In fact, the Bulgarian government had already planned to sell land to ease the financial crisis, but it was blocked by Ferdinand!

He knows that once the government sells a lot of land, it will inevitably cause major changes in the Bulgarian economic system!

Now the capitalists have no other investment channels, and they have to reinvest the profits gained into industrial production!

If you tell them suddenly, you can also invest in agriculture with stable returns. With the conservative atmosphere in Bulgaria, UU reading www.uukanshu. The com capitalists will inevitably allocate a large amount of funds to collect enough land. Then the funds invested in the industrial exhibition will definitely be greatly reduced, which is not in line with Ferdinand's vision!

Moreover, capitalists have entered into agricultural production. In order to pursue profits, they will certainly promote mechanized farming in an all-round way to reduce production costs. Then a large number of farm workers in Bulgaria will face unemployment!

With a decrease in industrialization investment and an increase in the number of unemployed farmers, it will inevitably cause chaos in Bulgarian society, which is not allowed by Ferdinand!

The government now holds a large amount of land, largely for the purpose of stabilizing and adjusting the demand for the industrial and agricultural population, as well as maintaining the population growth rate!

History has taught Ferdinand that the population growth rate of agricultural economic countries is much faster than that of industrialized countries, and the more industrialized countries, the slower the population growth rate!

So while advancing the industrialization of Bulgaria, Ferdinand is also looking for ways to preserve Bulgaria's small peasant economic model!

In order to alleviate the contradiction between population growth and land in the countryside, Ferdinand’s military award system is also a very important measure!

A large number of military elites have been moved out of their original homes, and the land will naturally be freed up, allowing more people to be settled!

So after promoting new agricultural technology, Ferdinand was overhauling water conservancy projects, but he did not fully promote mechanized agriculture!

Otherwise, when the time comes, millions of bankrupt peasants will come out at once, and Bulgaria will not explode!

This is also a successful example of Ferdinand borrowing from a certain country in later generations. When the industrialization develops, it can also encourage farmers to work in cities and solve the problem of lack of labor!

When the economic crisis breaks out, they can be allowed to go home to farm, alleviate social employment pressure and increase risk resistance!
