0639 Wang Faxuanhe, invincible in the United States
At the beginning of July, King Yong returned to Chang'an from Longshang, and the entire Chang'an City was a sensation, and the team that greeted him was all the way from the Jinguangmen in the west of Chang'an City to the suburbs dozens of miles away.
The changes in the situation brought by King Yongwang to Chang'an and even the whole of Shaanxi can be said to be visible to all. At the beginning of the year, when King Yong had just arrived in Chang'an, Chang'an City was still occupied by chaotic people, and there was no order at all.
The Turkic Khan in the north silently led his troops to Guannei County, and the Tubo in Longyou may also take advantage of the fire to loot at any time. At that time, the entire Kannai Province was in danger, and the people's feelings were even more panicked, and there was hardly any possibility that the situation would improve.
However, in the few months of King Yong's westward advance, he first quickly pacified the turmoil in Chang'an City, and then the army attacked the strong enemy, not only did the Turks flee alone, but King Yong personally went to Longxi and defeated the Tibetan army in Qinghai, completing the feat that the Tang Dynasty failed to do during its strongest period.
Up to now, the order of Chang'an City has gradually been restored, the people's livelihood is thriving, and the external troubles have all been calmed down, and the work of King Yong has been achieved. Therefore, when the people of Chang'an City learned that King Yong had returned, they were really happy from the bottom of their hearts to express their support and admiration for King Yong.
After passing Longshan, Li Tong took off his military uniform and rode a horse. When approaching the suburbs of Chang'an, I saw the people welcoming and warmly welcoming them, and I was both relieved and proud for a while.
As early as when Shendu decided to launch a coup d'Γ©tat, Li Tong's heart was always heavy and shrouded in a huge pressure. This pressure is difficult for others to understand, and it is difficult for him to confide out, that is, he is worried that the entire Tang Dynasty may be classified into a worse situation than in history because of his actions.
It was precisely because of this pressure that after the Shendu Revolution, he quickly withdrew from Luoyang, the capital of Shendu, and almost did not have time to enjoy the fruits of the successful coup, so he devoted himself to various affairs.
A great victory in Qinghai meant that all the aftermath work around the deep revolution had finally come to an end, and Li Tong was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. He was quite satisfied with the situation he had achieved with all his hard work.
Longyou's great achievements have made many people feel that King Yong's plan is profound and long-term, and he is not trapped in the stalemate situation of Shendu, but has the courage to forge ahead and create a new situation. Up to now, the situation of the Chang'an shogunate being divided and ruled by Shaanxi has been completely formed, and even the Shendu court has to affirm it in its name and position, and appease King Yong with Shaanxi Dao Daxingtai, an institution full of hegemony.
But these people don't know how much pressure Li Tong has been under in his heart in the past few months. Many people are dissatisfied with the status quo and want to change, but they don't have a clear plan for the situation after the change.
Li Tong is different, although he doesn't know what the future will look like, but he has a model in his heart as a comparison. Wu Zhou Chaocheng is indescribable, but in the original history, although the situation has been reversed several times, he has always stumbled into the real prosperity of the Tang Dynasty in the Kaitian period.
Therefore, Li Tong has higher requirements for himself, he does not expect that he can do it perfectly, but at least it should be stronger than the original period in history, otherwise his sacrifice will become meaningless.
Outside the Jinguang Gate of Chang'an City, there was already a sea of people, so that the shogunate had to send additional armor to guard the Jingjie here to control the situation.
When Yongwang Yijia appeared on the road outside the Jinguang Gate, the crowd inside and outside the Jinguang Gate was completely boiling, and people used all kinds of roars to vent the enthusiasm accumulated in their hearts, completely overpowering the Yubao propaganda in Yongwangyi's driving.
Li Yuanyuan, Yao Yuanchong and other dignitaries who stayed in Chang'an City also galloped forward, worshipping in the streets from afar, and shouted loudly: "Congratulations to His Royal Highness King Yong on his victory!" His Royal Highness attacked the strong enemy from afar, sowed the power of the foreign land, and the people in the Guan Nai bathed in this grace, and the grace was strong! β
Seeing this scene, Li Tong was also quite excited, and waved his arms to the crowd and the government officials in front of him on horseback, and laughed: "The Tang family established the country with might, those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me die!" This trip does not live up to the fathers and ancestors, and the common people, from now on, Wang Faxuanhe, invincible in the United States! β
"Wang Faxuanhe, invincible!"
With such a shout, Yongwang officially entered the city. After some enthusiastic catharsis, the people inside and outside Chang'an City gradually dispersed into the Baifang Street Song.
But soon, the people's sentiment was detonated by a decree, the content of the decree is "Shaanxi Road Daxingtai Open Border Register": From now on, Shaanxi Dao Daxingtai is under the jurisdiction of the prefectures in the registered households, special open border registration, all households above the double Ding can apply for registration, after the listing, the official cattle are rent-free, the household is given to a slave, and the servitude is removed, and only the household goes to the border to help the reclamation, and the service period is three months. After ten years of service, 100 acres of land will be granted.
This is the first order issued after the establishment of Shaanxi Dao Daxingtai, which quickly caused heated discussions among the people.
This ritual is very attractive to the households around Gyeonggi. Chang'an has a large number of households, and it has been a narrow township for a long time, and the Juntian Order has long been in vain, and a large number of land is concentrated in the hands of large households, but the people still have to bear the burden of rent adjustment every year, and there are all kinds of military service.
Although the Chang'an shogunate had exempted a considerable number of miscellaneous envoys before, it still failed to fundamentally change the living situation of the people, and there were many people but few lands.
There is not enough arable land to give to the households, which makes a large number of households around Chang'an become tenant farmers, and even many idle Ding Li, even if they want to support their families with their own strength, but there is no labor at all.
The most direct way to solve this problem is to directly recover the land from the hands of large households, and then increase the number of registered households. However, this kind of reform that touches on the fundamentals has had a great impact on the social order, and the current Shaanxi Daodaxingtai has not yet made relevant preparations, so it can only adopt such a compromise plan to transfer the overly dense civil power in the Guannai to the outside and enrich the border prefectures.
In the first battle of Qinghai, the Tang army captured a large number of cattle, sheep and people, and the rectification of Zhuhu in the Jiuqu land of the Yellow River continued. Of course, the so-called rectification is mainly based on indoctrination by force.
In the case of King Yong as a backer, coupled with the cooperation of Longyou's military affairs, it rose to become a tyrant of Longyou in a very short period of time.
As a result, the population and livestock captured in Longbian increased dramatically, and the merchants who went to Longbian alone could not digest it at all, and could only be solved by the government.
Livestock and the like are just down, but with so many Hu people, how to deal with them is really a headache. Although the Longbian prefectures are also actively expanding the scale of reclamation, if all the Hu pawn labor force is gathered together on a large scale, it is also a hidden danger.
Therefore, the opening order announced by Shaanxi Dao Daxingtai is on the one hand to increase the proportion of Tang people in the border states, and on the other hand, it is also to digest those Hu pawns into parts.
A war without interests is an unjust war, and although the Tang Army's pioneering momentum is great, it can't always be closed to the people, who just cheer and shout six, and in the end, in addition to paying more taxes every year, they can't get any benefits.
Although the households registered in the Zhukai border have to bear the labor of one ding and three months of reclamation every year, in the local area, the official cattle are rent-free, and the household is given to a slave, and the production labor force does not decrease but increases. The disintegration of the Hunu into pieces and the dispersion into the countryside can also reduce some of the pressure of centralized control, so that the local government and the township community can participate in the control of these Hunu.
Even if the previous Chang'an shogunate wanted to make large-scale adjustments to the manpower of the prefectures and counties, it was still a bit unjustifiable after all, but now the prefectures and counties of Shaanxi are all under the decree of King Yong, and the implementation of the decree has naturally increased greatly.
At the same time, the promulgation of this opening order as a government decree of Shaanxi Dao Daxingtai can be regarded as determining the style of Shaanxi Dao Daxingtai, not to close the door to engage in internal affairs, but to raise the war and benefit from the war. Although it is not a militaristic model in which all the people fight, it is still necessary to maintain a bright rhythm in opening up the borders and expanding abroad.
Thanks to the great victory in Qinghai, the people of the entire Gyeonggi region are now full of confidence in His Royal Highness King Yong, so after a few days of short travel, more than 10,000 households have emerged in Chang'an alone.
There are many more households, although they also have the idea of participating, but they are still more or less hesitant, and want to make a choice after the initial results of the implementation of the order. After all, it is already difficult for small people to make ends meet, and any small change may bring unbearable consequences, so they are cautious about anything new.
For this order, the attitude of the Chang'an shogunate is to actively publicize, but mainly voluntary, for this reason King Yong even set up a special internal guard team, selected good family sons and senior former clothes of the society, divided the way to inspect the states, in order to put an end to the state and county faction forced to open the border households.
In addition to this order, after the Chang'an shogunate was upgraded to the Shaanxi Provincial Daxingtai, it faced a more serious problem, that is, the urgent shortage of officials. Although the chief officials of Zhuzhou County are still selected by the Shendu Imperial Court, the military assistants are directly appointed by Daxingtai.
The division of King Yong's rule does not mean that it is completely out of the control of the center of the imperial court, if you want to make a metaphor, it is more similar to an outsourced control model. The prefectures and counties of Shaanxi Province still pay tribute every year, but the imperial court will not control the specific administrative matters.
Therefore, it is also a top priority for Daxingtai to recruit troops and buy horses, including its own structural reorganization. For the next period of time, Li Tong has been busy here, and with the arrival of Lu Yuanfang, the ambassador of the army, in Chang'an, Daxingtai has a basic prototype.
