sheepskin for melon

Ai Pass is a rather dangerous pass in Zhiqiu. I thought it would be a tough battle, but I didn't expect that the people inside would directly sacrifice the city without a single soldier.

After the army moved in, the first priority was naturally to guard the border and keep the people safe. Uncle Zhuangzi looked at Tan Yushu and said, "Now that we don't need a single soldier to attack the city, how can we burn the treasury?"

Tan Yushu laughed: "This time we will not burn the treasury, let's discuss the crime, and post a notice tomorrow, no matter where you are, anyone who has a grievance can come to my yamen to file a complaint."

Uncle Zhuangzi immediately understood what he meant. Since ancient times, the government and businessmen have colluded, the rich and powerful have no scruples, and there are few people who do not oppress the common people.

In ordinary times, those who commit crimes against the master by using a slave to sue their master will be given a higher crime, and the people dare not speak out. Now that General Tianwei, who is not from his own country, is in charge, he will naturally speak and act without restraint, and he will be able to collect a lot of criminal evidence soon. They copied and confiscated the property of the big family.

On the one hand, he collected the wealth of Zhiqiu into his own hands, enriched his armaments, and rewarded the officers and soldiers of the Yong Kingdom; Tian Yifen, the vast number of tenants, thanked General Tianwei as if they were grateful to their reborn parents.

So even though in fact, Tan Yushu was doing looting and looting, everyone regarded him as a good person, even the people in the robbed country thought he was a good person.

There are not eight hundred people who can't do this kind of thing. Uncle Zhuangzi looked at him, wondering if he had been deceived by him inadvertently before.

Tan Yushu: ...

Isn't he doing it for the country and the people? Why is Brother Zhuang looking at him like that?

He explained solemnly: "Recovering the land is a necessary move. Land is the foundation of a country. Only by mastering the land rights can a country be truly mastered. Otherwise, even if the eighth prince who has half of Dayong's bloodline ascends the throne, it will be futile. Those who have land now are probably looking forward to the permanent presence of Dayong's army."

Uncle Zhuangzi sighed: "The poor people have worked hard all year, but they don't even have a piece of land to stand on. They dare to kill the general for a sheep. Those who give them fields will naturally get their support. However, there are so many poor people. , Brother Simei's move broke down Zhiqiu's regime from the root, and it is better than a hundred thousand troops. Brother Yu is really convinced by you this time."

Tan Yushu hastened to be humble, he won the award, he won the award, he was lucky enough to travel to another world, read classic cases of up and down 5000 years, and copied many ready-made answers before summing up this set of tactics, don’t admire it just because of this Call him Simei...

And there is one thing that maybe even Brother Zhuang didn't notice, that is, although he distributed the fields to the people for cultivation, he didn't issue the deeds of ownership, and the ownership of these fields was still in his hands.

On the one hand, this is to firmly restrain the people of Zhiqiu so that they will not cause chaos, and the other is that he wants to try to nationalize the land ownership.

Dayong's land system is private ownership, and it also allows arbitrary transactions.

Still the same sentence, any system has its meaning when it is first established. For example, the private ownership of land, at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, has stimulated the enthusiasm of the people to cultivate wasteland. Finally, the economy was also driven to the top.

But in later generations, almost all the land that can be reclaimed by manpower has been reclaimed, and private ownership has lost its original advantages. Slowly, it has also caused a very serious problem, that is, the proliferation of land mergers.

Some people may still be very innocent. Why should I not be allowed to merge the fields I bought with my own money?

The problem is that when land mergers become the norm, the means of mergers may not be just.

Whenever there is a natural disaster and there is no grain harvest, groups of businessmen will flock to the disaster area to drive up the price of grain and buy the land from the people at a low price.

Even if there is no natural disaster, your land is unfortunately favored by the landlord. With his power, there are countless "reasonable" means to get it.

Of course, rich people are not necessarily all bad people. Some people really rely on their own efforts to make a fortune and buy land. If they blame the suffering of the poor people on them, they will definitely hurt them by accident.

So what really needs to be blamed is the inaction of the imperial court, because this is a problem that needs to be regulated at the national level.

Tan Yushu used to be very confused, Dayong's problems were so persistent, where should he deal with this mess?

And a series of studies in modern times made him suddenly wake up——

Start from the bottom, from the vast majority of poor people, from the land.

The modern system of public ownership of land and household contract management has greatly inspired him, allowing the people to have the right to use the land, but without the right to ownership and disposal. Without losing the economic mobility of the land.

However, Dayong's current social structure has solidified. It is not easy for the big households to spit out the acquired land, nationalize it, and redistribute the land. No one else will tell him, and his clan will not listen to him.

Moreover, with the current situation of the court, it is still a question of whether it will be returned to the country or returned to the government in the end.

Unless he is determined to "dare to teach the sun and the moon to change into a new sky", the process must be slowed down, and he cannot offend all the dignitaries all at once.

In Dayong, he had to cook the frog slowly, but in Zhiqiu, he could do it directly.

Although everyone knows that the eighth prince is just a puppet, in name, Dayong still recognizes the status of the independent state of Zhiqiu.

He could take advantage of the fact that Zhiqiu belonged to Dayong, but not completely belonged to Dayong. On the grounds of strengthening control over Zhiqiu, he implemented another system in the territory of Zhiqiu openly and aboveboard.

So Tan Yushu smiled at Uncle Zhuangzi: "Brother Zhuang, I've been thinking about one thing these days, what do you think?"

"Brother Simei, please tell me."

Tan Yushu: ...

Trying to ignore the small problem of title, he continued: "After the big victory, I think anyone in the army who wants to stay on the hill can stay, and they will also be allocated land and their families will be allowed to move. Yong's soldiers and Zhiqiu's people are in the same place, regardless of each other, and after several generations, they are a family, and with land, the garrison can better serve the Duhufu."

Uncle Zhuangzi's eyes brightened slightly. This is indeed a good idea. On the one hand, it will gradually turn the hill into Dayong's territory, and on the other hand, it will also reduce some of Dayong's burdens.

There were many troops in the Yong Dynasty, but it was not a good thing. The problem of redundant troops has always been a big problem that plagued the court. The annual military expenditure can empty the national treasury.

But disarmament is not enough, because Dayong has a system of vagrants created by land annexation, and they go to serve as soldiers to consume energy. If the soldiers are laid off, they will directly become refugees and can only be raised. Now there are suddenly more resettlement methods. .

These soldiers do not have the problem of leaving their homeland, because most of them have no soil. It is scary to leave their hometown and migrate to a strange place, but with their own land, they have nothing to fear.

Seeing that Uncle Zhuangzi had no objection, Tan Yushu continued: "However, when people from the two countries work together, there must be many difficulties, and a person with outstanding ability is needed to coordinate the overall situation, so I ask His Majesty to let Brother Zhuang be the guardian and take charge of the overall situation. Come on, Brother Lao Zhuang can only continue to be stationed outside."

This is of course what it should be. In fact, Uncle Zhuangzi is much more comfortable outside than staying in the capital. At least he can really do something. The only downside is that he can't see his wife and children.

Hey, I really hope to calm down soon, maybe I can take them over.

Tan Yushu patted him on the shoulder to comfort him for a while, and immediately told him the specific policy of "one country, two systems".

Uncle Zhuangzi listened quietly at first, but then he was gradually dumbfounded: "Where did you come up with these things?"

Tan Yushu said honestly: "When I was in friendship with the eminent monk Du'er, I occasionally got something."

Uncle Zhuangzi: ...

"Can you introduce me to the eminent monk Du'e?"

……

Before the battle was over, Tan Yushu and Zhuang Zishu were already thinking about how to govern other people's countries.

The steps of attacking the city, harvesting fields, and dividing land were carried out in an orderly manner. All the strong men of Zhiqiu were captured, so wherever he went, Tan Yushu would leave a large group of soldiers to help the people cultivate the fields.

But that's it, Tan Yushu's team is getting bigger and bigger.

Because many soldiers who surrendered, seeing the bustling scene of land division, joined them and prepared to lead them to "liberate" their hometown.

As for the Yongguo officers and soldiers staying behind, Tan Yushu has done most of the work along the way, which is to promote "socialist values" to them every day, strict military laws, commendations and rewards, and finally brought them some "people's soldiers" demeanor.

Adhering to the principle of "common people are parents, don't use common people's needles and threads", and also help cultivate the fields. They have a high voice among the people and are very popular.

Sometimes, the satisfaction brought by emotional value is beyond people's imagination. Under the adoring and trusting eyes of the common people, these soldiers really give birth to some sense of responsibility that General Tan said, "people's soldiers" should have.

But in this way, wherever they go, they will settle down in one place, and the marching speed will naturally be much slower. In terms of the progress of the siege, they will completely fall behind Bei Rong.

After conquering another city, Tulu Khan occupied the city lord's mansion and celebrated with his subordinates. The luxurious ruby ​​bead necklace on his chest made his huge body even more majestic and inviolable.

Some of his subordinates congratulated and said: "The Central Plains army is really finished. Our Beirong army has already approached Suguan, and they are only halfway through the fight. They still want to compete with us for the road to gold. They are overestimating their capabilities, hahaha!"

The others immediately laughed and praised Tu Lu Khan loudly for his youthful swordsmanship, his wisdom and martial arts, and Tu Lu Khan narrowed his eyes in satisfaction.

Boluo Xiuzan, who was sitting on the side, frowned: "Father Khan, the leader of the Central Plains soldiers is the young general from Qingzhou. Don't underestimate him. The people from Zhiqiu are not his opponents. I guess the reason why he marched so slowly is to Let us and Zhiqiu both lose, so that we can reap the benefits of the fisherman, we really shouldn't act too hastily, we should release Chen Jingsi's main force, and fight him for a while..."

Before the words were finished, there was a sneer at the banquet: "Listen, is this our invincible sun god? Second brother, are you really afraid of being beaten by that young general from the Central Plains in Qingzhou?"

Boluo Xiuzan: ...

"It's not a question of being afraid..."

But the eldest prince interrupted him: "People in the Central Plains are good at defense but not good at attacking. As long as we attack Suguan, the golden road will fall into our hands. We have a strong pass to prove. What are those Central Plains people afraid of? Don't you want to Let them take it first, and then fight for three years with no results?"

Hearing what he said, the other sons of Tulu Khan also snickered.

Anger finally appeared in Boluo Xiuzan's brown eyes. The eldest prince was taken aback by his expression. Just as he was about to say something, Tulu Khan stopped their fight and said with an amiable smile:

"Bharashuzan, I don't like verbal arguments. If you want to prove yourself, tomorrow you will take down Suguan yourself to prove your brilliance as a child of the sun, instead of arguing with your brother here."

There was a backlog of anger in Boluo Xiuzan's heart, but his father's order was hard to disobey, and in the end he could only obey: "My son takes orders."

Tulu Khan finally showed a satisfied smile.

……

The Bei Rong army launched a fierce attack on Suguan, while Tan Yushu was still managing the captured territory slowly. Because he was too leisurely, sometimes everyone even forgot that he was fighting now.

He was indeed using the Northern Army to divert firepower. His old opponent Po Luo Xiuzan was not a fool, so he should be able to guess.

But for something like Yangmou, even if you know it is a pit, you have to jump into it, because the moment you fall into it, you can't help yourself.
