Three hundred and sixtieth chapters do what counts

In view of the fact that the territory of Dengzhou Prefecture has less than 3,000 households, after returning to Dengzhou, Dayong issued his own orders to Song Guanglan, the former Dengzhou Road, Wang Zheng, the Supervisor of the Army, Wu Weicheng, the prefect of Dengzhou, Jia Mingjie, the Tongzhi, and Song Cheng, the magistrate of Penglai County. .

This order ordered these former Ming officials to move the scattered victims to the vicinity of Dengzhou Prefecture within one month, so that the Jinzhou Army could relocate and rescue them nearby.

It was difficult in the past to let people leave the place where they have lived for generations. It is said that it is hard to leave the homeland, but everyone always has an inexplicable affection for the land where they grew up. Even many people who go to work in other places will do so before they die. Let his descendants move his bones back to his place of origin for burial. This is the return of the fallen leaves to their roots.

If it were changed to the past, Dayong would definitely cause a huge uproar if he moved the people away from the land where they were born and raised, and even if it was not done well, it would cause a civil uprising. But now, there is no need to worry about this. When those who once surrendered When the former county officials of Dengzhou Prefecture of the rebels told the victims that there was food in Dengzhou to help them, those people who were lucky enough to survive the rebels' butchery knife moved to Dengzhou with their young and old. They proactively allowed those people who were in name only to live in Dengzhou. The Ming officials were a little surprised.

We should also be grateful to Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng. It was they who eradicated the powerful gentry in those places in order to plunder property, leaving the remaining people without a backbone and a lack of spokespersons. Winter will begin in two months. Under such circumstances, they can only obey the people sent by the government to move to Dengzhou. Otherwise, once the weather turns cold, they will not be able to survive in the ruins. For these people, the Dengzhou food promised by the officials is the only way to survive. It is the biggest factor for them to migrate voluntarily. In addition, there are other incentives.[

With the food obtained from Laizhou, Dayong is not afraid of the large number of people coming to Dengzhou. Now he is only afraid that the people are unwilling to come, or that there are few people coming, and they will not be able to have any effect. In order to enrich the population of Dengzhou, on the one hand, Dayong tries his best to bring the surviving people to Dengzhou. The people who came down moved to the capital city of Dengzhou; on the other hand, they constantly sent people to nearby areas to make announcements to appease the people, and to persuade the people hiding in the mountains and countryside to come to Dengzhou.

Dayong's idea on how to resettle these victims is simple and effective: food plus land.

Dengzhou Prefecture has mostly hilly land and not much fertile land. Basically, the fertile land is occupied by the landlords and gentry. Apart from being tenant farmers of the landlords, ordinary people can only cultivate thin fields with poor harvests. Therefore, their income is meager and their life is very difficult. difficulties. Most of the time, ordinary people go out to sea to fish to supplement their families' livelihood.

Of course, going out to sea for fishing is very risky. There is a folk saying that seven out of ten will return, which means that out of ten young men who go to sea, only seven will come back, and the remaining three will definitely die on the sea. But compared with the meager harvest from the land, Going out to sea to fish is still very tempting to the poor. Those young and strong people would rather die in the vast sea than to keep their wives and children in their bellies.

The massacre of Dengzhou by the rebels helped Dayong to some extent. In Dengzhou, where there are ten rooms and nine empty houses, everything Dayong wants to do can be carried out conditionally, and there is no fear of any opposition forces. It has become a matter of course to take out the fertile land that originally belonged to the big families and distribute it to the people who migrated. Even if these big families still have one or two descendants who survive by chance, they have also lost the right to own these lands. If all the gentry are killed, their mouths can be tightly shut. If they don't understand, Dayong won't mind destroying them humanely again.

In the final analysis, Dayong, who did not belong to this era at all, was instinctively resistant to the land annexation of this era, and was hostile to the big landlords who lived a prosperous life by exploiting the poor.

This kind of resistance and hostility would definitely make the Jinzhou Army passive in other places, but in Dengzhou, Dayong can do whatever he wants.

Farming was Dayong's idea from the very beginning. He wanted to allocate the land to the victims, and he also wanted to announce a tax-free policy for the victims. This was certainly because he did not have the power, but also because he did not want to do this at all.

The policy of farming was implemented several times in the Ming Dynasty for more than two hundred years. The military households in the guardhouses were actually the people living in the farming. Today, the farming system has been completely corrupted. Anyone who understands can see the shortcomings. But Dayong

But he insists on farming in Dengzhou. He is not unaware of the long-term disadvantages, but at the moment, farming is imperative because he must make Dengzhou a food logistics center for the Jinzhou Army as soon as possible. This is like a planned economy.

With the continuous progress of society, the planned economy is obviously not suitable for the national conditions, but at least in the beginning, the planned economy is enough to allow a country to develop rapidly.

Whether the fields will be divided into households in the future is a matter for the future. There are many difficulties at hand. It is unknown how far the Jinzhou Army can go. Naturally, Dayong is worried about the future.

Fuck your mother, fuck your mother, wherever you go.

When it was announced that farming would be carried out in Dengzhou, there was no objection from the top and bottom of Jinzhou. Farming was carried out in many places outside the customs. This was also a means of self-reliance. Those who had been demoted because of their reputation had no objection at all. Anyway, this was Dengzhou.

The land near the state capital has been turned into main farmland. Whether it is farmland or distribution by the Jinzhou army, how much does it have to do with them? What they are worried about now is whether Shi Dayong will become theirs anyway as he said when he entered the city.

prove.

The task of moving the people to live together was entrusted by Dayong to Song Guanglan, the former Dengzhou Dao. This person was a Jinshi in the 42nd year of Wanli. In the second year of Tianqi, he was appointed as the Tongzhi of Jinan Prefecture. After Denglai was appointed governor, he became the prefect of Dengzhou.

Then the road was changed to Dengzhou Road. After the rebels captured Dengzhou, Song Guanglan lost all hope. He wanted to commit suicide and die for his country, but was saved by his concubine. Later, he did not know whether he was obsessed or repented, and he even wanted to die again.

I just want to survive.

Among the officials in Dengzhou who surrendered to the rebels, Song Guanglan was the highest-ranking and most famous.

After Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng captured Dengzhou, they originally wanted to bring Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, to the forefront and use his reputation to recruit rebels. However, Sun Yuanhua would rather die than obey, so they started with the former Dengzhou prefecture and county officials. After coercion and inducement, Song Guanglan

The No. 2 figure in Denglai became Kong Youde's partner and accepted the post of governor of Denglai appointed by Li Jiucheng.

It is definitely wrong to say that Song Guanglan has no spine, and it is also wrong to say that he has spine, because after the rebels entered the city, his first thought was to commit suicide to serve the country. After being rescued, he took up the post of governor of Denglai under the coercion of the rebels. Therefore, it cannot be arbitrary.

It is impossible to say that Song Dynasty had no backbone, but it cannot be said that Song Dynasty was a loyal minister.
