Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

"We still need to calculate the cost?" Ma Chao looked desperate, "Isn't one of these things counted as one, and they are all armed? One point for more fighting is one point."

"It's completely useless for you to tell me that." Tacito said with a smile, "I'm envious."

Ma Chao nodded. As a cavalry regiment, how could Ma Chao not be envious of the opponent's mounts, seeing the opponent's top horses with a height of 1.85 meters, and then looking at his own horses that broke through the historical limit due to the alienation of heaven and earth energy. A top-notch Arabian horse with a height of 1.55 meters, Ma Chao silently deleted the word top.

In the future, this war horse is no longer worthy of being called a top war horse, and the opposite is the top.

"If you work hard to achieve the third talent, the financial officer will definitely equip you." Tachito said with a smile, "This is the war horse prepared for the parliamentary guard when the parliamentary guard was still a heavy cavalry. Now they are free-range That said, as long as there are three talents in cavalry regiment advancement, it will be approved to use, to be honest, these war horses are really delicious."

"If you think you can't afford it, you can sell it to me." Ma Chao said without integrity, "I want it too."

"It's impossible to arm you, but if you only need a small amount, it should be fine." Tachito thought for a while and said, "At present, we and the tenth are qualified to use it, but the tenth knight army, you know, They don't ride horses."

When Tachito said these words, Ma Chao had already constructed the shape of the tenth knight riding an ostrich and flapping its wings in his mind, which was really eye-catching.

"What's the situation in Italy recently? You came back from Yuan's house, so you went to the legions you mentioned?" Ma Chao drooled and changed the subject. I can't stop robbing.

"Yeah, those two have passed, but I think they both have problems. Are so many people really okay?" Tachito thought of the 12,000 people of the Fourth Lucky Legion and the second Patti. The 18,000 members of the runner-up regiment couldn't help but turn blue, they were too beastly.

"Who knows, if there is a problem, it's none of my business." Ma Chao said indifferently, "Is there any other fun in Italy?"

"His Majesty Severus seems to be thinking about economic issues recently." Tacito looked up into the distance, and followed Ma Chao to his resting place in Media, explaining the story of Italy to Ma Chao while walking.

"I just took it as a joke." Ma Chao mocked, Severus understands economics, so Rome may have to sit on the ground and blew himself up.

"Although what you said is a bit excessive, it does make sense." Tacito nodded. In fact, the entire Roman Senate had such an idea, and now they are begging Severus not to die, shouldering the responsibility of Rome. Economic Pompianus wanted to die even more.

"What is the New Economic Policy? Will it raise our wages, or will it increase the salaries of soldiers, or increase the overall military expenditure?" Ma Chao asked casually. The traditional performing arts of the Severus Dynasty that he has seen in Rome for so many years are given to him. Soldiers plus salary.

The remuneration of Roman soldiers is higher than that paid by Chen Xi to Han soldiers, dare you believe it!

"It seems to be because His Majesty Severus made an unannounced visit before and found that the country's economy is developing steadily and the people live and work in peace and contentment. After increasing the salaries of the soldiers, the soldiers have money to buy more things, and then the people of Italy become richer. Already." Tacito didn't quite understand this either, but Tacito roughly knew what Severu said.

Ma Chao was at a loss about this, he only knew that if Severus continued to send money, Rome would definitely be doomed.

In fact, all the elders of the Senate think so, only Severus himself does not think so. After Severus was persuaded by a group of elders with this theory, he did not increase the base salary of Roman soldiers for about a whole year.

This year Severus couldn't bear it anymore, so he paid bounties to the soldiers of the Roman Empire out of his own pocket. The people's livelihood is declining due to lack of money, and the country is even more prosperous.

So Severus believed that increasing the wages of soldiers was beneficial to the national economy. Although he didn't know how this conclusion was investigated, when Severus read his investigation report to the Senate, the elders of the Senate were crazy or not. You know, Pompianus was crazy anyway.

I finally relied on trade balance and state-owned industries to cover the country's economy, and you came to mess with me again. See, the deficit, such a big deficit, although I created it, no matter how you check it It's all deficits, please be a human being.

Severus doesn't understand economics at all, but he can see the reality. The reality is that Rome's economy is getting better day by day. Sending money by yourself is conducive to the happy life of soldiers and citizens, so Severus said that he wants to raise the average value of Roman soldiers again. salary.

As for the deficit, Severus doesn’t understand this. In Severus’ view, the deficit is the deficit. Anyway, the country’s economy is obviously improving now, and the people are happy to live in peace. The books are red. The reality is very good. Why should I look at it Accounts, anyway, I do not understand.

Severus' god theory killed Pompianus, and even Severus said something more effective-the deficit seems to have no effect on reality at all. I think Rome has been bigger than me in recent years. It was much better when I first came here, and the accounts are really fake.

Although the process was a mess and the logic was chaotic, Severus still came up with the correct answer, yes, the books were false.

Of course, Severus said this just casually, he doesn’t care about the account, it doesn’t matter what the account is, anyway, except when he needs military expenses, Pompianus always has no money, and at other times Pompianus always seems to have no money. Even if he has money, even if he has no money, he can still borrow money.

Severus is not a fool. If it weren't for the treasury's ability to run horses every day, Severus would have withheld Pompianus' money for military expenses, but isn't it a pity that it can't be intercepted? Especially after Severus sent professionals to conduct various researches, and finally failed to find any money, Severus finally realized that if I can't do it, I can send money to the soldiers first, and Pompianus will settle it for me.

So the Senate is crazy now, and Severus once again proposed a salary increase plan. Pompianus said that if you can get a silver coin, you will win, and then Severus proposed to pay with his own money first. , and then the treasury repaid the debt, and Pompianus almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.

In short, this matter is now in a state of collapse. If other emperors would never do such a thing, it is almost a tradition for Severus to use his own money to pay soldiers. Lu also did this kind of thing, and this is just a reappearance of history.

Why was the military peak of the Roman Empire during the period of Severus, not the period of the Five Sage Emperors? It is impossible for an emperor who used his own money to distribute money to soldiers, and the soldiers did not support them desperately.

But this is very fatal to Pompianus. If Severus pays with his own money and waits for the treasury to collect the account, it will be really fatal, and a bunch of his plans will be over.

Of course, Pompianus can also make fake accounts, and continue to let the treasury have nothing except a little risk reserve fund, but Severus always turns around his workshop, which makes Pompianus very sad , The other party's intentions are obvious, if I can't get the money, I will barter.

This is very shameless, but it is very legal.

In this case, Pompianus is very passive. He now needs a new skill, which is to trick Severus into taking money to build an industry, and then the fairy jumps to evaporate all Severus' small money. However, this is unrealistic. No one can evaporate the money of a guy who is a military commander and emperor.

Therefore, when Tacito left Rome, Pompianus was still very miserable. Fortunately, his potential will be stimulated when he is pushed. After being pushed by Severus, Pompianus finally broke out. Human-level intelligence.

Although it is not complete, Pompianus and a mathematician performed detailed calculations and made a financial product that looks very good.

Severus only needs to invest a part of the money every year. In the future, this part of the money will not only be returned to Severus, but will also generate interest, and the treasury will inject assets of the same size in batches as military expenses. It can be said that Severus only needs to invest Money can benefit all soldiers, and they don't need such a large-scale investment as they do now.

This wealth management product successfully attracted the attention of Severus, and many veterans were also very interested in it. Pompianus wiped his sweat silently and barely escaped the catastrophe. As for whether he could Do it, Pompianus looked at the mathematical model he made at home, there should be no problem, and no matter how miserable it is, it will not be so miserable that Severus directly sends the money.

"Tsk, this is really possible." Ma Chao smacked his lips twice, and said with emotion, "By the way, where do you guys plan to go this time?"

"Of course it's Congling. I'm ready to meet Chi Yanghou's group of people. Back then we had a good fight, but we were thrown off by those guys. Now we can be regarded as catching up. It’s impossible not to meet him.” Tachito said excitedly, after all, it was Tachito, Li Jue and others who started the battle between Rome and Rest.

Ma Chao looked at Tachito up and down, looking at the other person is like looking at a mentally retarded person, you are now running to Congling with this cool appearance, isn't that a meat bun beating a dog, and you never return?

"What kind of eyes are you looking at?" Tachito said dissatisfied.

"It's nothing, I just think you're really cool." Ma Chao smacked his lips twice, and decided to put aside the dispute with Li Jue, and send a message to the other party, so that they can prepare to receive the five thousand shoulder-high one he sent over. Mi 85's war horse.
