Chapter 91 A generous move to divide the emperor’s land?

Zhu Youxiao listened for a while.

He felt that his speech was still too formal, and in Zhang Haogu's words, it was not down to earth.

Look at what Zhang Haogu said with so much energy.

One mouthful is a dog officer.

If these good officials turn into dog officials, you will suffer twice and suffer twice.

Why hadn't he noticed before that Zhang Haogu was so good at talking?

"The emperor is here?"

Zhang Haogu smiled and said: "How?"

"I also chatted with these bastards for a while!" Zhu Youxiao frowned and said, "I just feel that these words are never as insightful as what the master said!"

"The emperor spoke to them personally, just to give them reassurance!"

Zhang Haogu smiled and said: "I believe that they will also work seriously for their official positions!"

Zhu Youxiao nodded: "This is the only way!"

subsequently

Zhu Youxiao went to court.

After announcing the new policy of the court, all these candidates were incorporated into the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The person responsible for managing this group of candidates was none other than Han Lin.

Today, Han Lin has been promoted to the imperial censor of Qiandu, and is on the same level as Yang Lian, a fourth-rank official.

In addition, Han Lin himself now has to go to Yongding County to work for the victims.

This group of alternate officials is now mainly checking the situation of Xi Xian's return to the government to see if there are any omissions. The second step is to investigate whether officials from various places have contacts with officials in the capital, and whether the land reported by bureaucrats at all levels is accurate.

It is necessary to cut off the communication between Beijing officials and local officials, and to verify how much land these officials hold.

You are not allowed to commit corruption once you have received money from the imperial court, and you must honestly report your true situation.

However, these alone are not enough.

There is also the new army.

To form a fighting force.

Although the Taxation Department and Statistics Department were also established before.

However, real soldiers are still different from this.

The next step is to form an army in Yongding County.

To put it simply, it is to train a team that can fight tough battles.

And now Zhang Haogu is also thinking about the new army's program.

How to practice, how to train.

The second question is how to feed the new army.

The Ming Dynasty started with a garrison system. The soldiers in the camp were divided into two parts: garrison and field. The ratio was variable and rotated on a regular basis. The field was fixed and handed over grain to supply the garrison and officials. The goal was to raise troops without consuming national financial resources.

Zhu Yuanzhang once said proudly: "I can raise millions of soldiers without costing the people a grain of rice."

However, after Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty, it became common for guards officers to occupy the land of military camps and for private soldiers to cultivate it. Now, the land of these guards has long been divided up.

The current Ming Dynasty has a recruitment system. However, the recruitment system destroyed the concept of "separation of soldiers and commanders" of the early guard system. The cabinet must delegate military power to generals, which also led to the rise of this group of military families in Liaodong.

Zhang Haogu's idea is actually similar to that of Lao Zhu, the guard system, but it needs to go a step further, allocate fields to soldiers, pay them food and pay, and solve the worries of these soldiers, that is, logistics problems.

The training of soldiers is second, first of all, to solve their ideological problems.

Why go to war?

Behind you is the Ming Dynasty. If the Ming Dynasty is gone, then the land allocated to you and the education of your children will all disappear.

And it was the imperial court that really held the fate of these soldiers.

The advantage the imperial court gives them is that if something goes wrong with the imperial court, then these soldiers will have nothing. Naturally, they also protect the imperial court.

However, there is also a very practical problem now.

Where does the land distribution come from?

The land of the Wei Institute founded by Zhu Yuanzhang has long been divided up. However, if you really want to say that there is no land, Zhang Haogu doesn't think so.

There are two places with land. One is Jiubian. There is still relatively fertile land here. However, Jiubian is not safe. Although there are soldiers from the Ming Dynasty guarding the border, the Mongols and slaves will come in.

Burning, killing and looting.

Therefore, people fled to the mainland and went crazy in the mainland.

Zhang Haogu had this idea to open up nine borders, but this required the protection of strong enough force.

Then there's only one other guy.

There is a person who owns land and is a huge landowner. The most important thing is that this guy's land is basically near the capital.

This person is the carpenter emperor Zhu Youxiao.

When the emperor of the Ming Dynasty wanted to spend money, he had to go through the procedures one by one from the imperial household department. Every amount of money must be strictly reviewed and the accounts must be clear. If he spends too blatantly,

If you make money for enjoyment, you will immediately face a series of drool from officials.

Naturally, internal funds were born, and a considerable part of the income from internal funds came from the Imperial Village.

At first, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were relatively restrained. After Ming Xianzong ascended the throne, they confiscated the property of Cao Jixiang, the eunuch who had participated in the "Seize the Gate Rebellion".

However, the land obtained from the confiscation of family property this time was not returned to the state treasury, but was directly transferred to the imperial estate of Emperor Xianzong of the Ming Dynasty.

After taking the sinner's land directly as his own, the method of acquiring land became an important way for the development of Huangzhuang.

Then, the royal family began to annex land crazily. During the Hongzhi period of Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty, there were five Huangzhuangs in the Gyeonggi area. By Zhu Houzhao, the number had grown to more than 300, and the land area of ​​Huangzhuang had also increased from more than 12,800 hectares to more than 37,595 hectares.

pour.

As for the Zhu Youxiao period.

Zhang Haogu was doing calculations with a small abacus in the household department.

The Dog Emperor's Palace must have more than 8 million acres of land, which is about 800,000 acres in the Gyeonggi area.

This dog emperor took the lead in annexing land, and also wanted to make all civil and military officials take a warning.

What nonsense!

Zhang Haogu muttered in his heart, but he was thinking about what he had to say to get Zhu Youxiao to give the land to him honestly.

For a moment, Zhang Haogu felt a little ridiculous that he actually wanted to carve up the emperor's land.

If Zhu Yuanzhang were to be reborn, he would definitely have his skin peeled off.

Thinking about it, it felt wrong. If Zhu Yuanzhang saw this group of unscrupulous descendants, he would probably skin them one by one.

Well, let’s start with Ming Yingzong.

Zhang Haogu was thinking wildly and had countless thoughts in his mind, how on earth he was going to convince Zhu Youxiao.

After all, this dog emperor really has tens of thousands of acres of land.

Arrive at Nuan Pavilion

As soon as Zhang Haogu came in, he saw Zhu Youxiao excitedly saying: "Master! Master! Come on!"

When Zhang Haogu stepped forward, Zhu Youxiao said, "Master, look at this book!"

"Military Illustrations"?

Zhang Haogu was stunned for a moment, and Zhu Youxiao on his side said: "Master, this is a book that Wei Banban got for me. During this time, I was studying flintlock muskets, so this book is for me."

It provides a lot of inspiration, take a look!”

Zhang Haogu glanced at Wei Zhongxian and said with a smile: "Eunuch Wei has been working hard on state affairs!"

"Where, where, our family is working for the emperor, it's not too late to be happy!" Wei Zhongxian said very humbly.

Zhang Haogu glanced briefly and saw the author's name - Bi Maokang.
