The amnesty plan drafted by Du Siye was already on Guo Song's desk, including all the prisoners and prisoners of war under the Jin Dynasty's command, as well as the more than 10,000 prisoners of war mining in Lanzhou and the more than 40,000 Hui people stranded in Yunzhou.

During this time, the new khan of the Hui Dynasty collected captive Tang Dynasty slaves from all over the grassland, came to Yunzhou to exchange prisoners of war, and had completed the exchange of more than 100,000 people, but more than 42,000 people were still stranded in Yunzhou, mainly because the Hui had no slaves, and the two sides could only conduct a second round of negotiations and exchange materials for prisoners of war.

Guo Song pondered for a moment and said, "Hurry up and invite Pan Changshi to come over!" ”

Not long after, Pan Liao came in a hurry, Guo Song invited him to sit down, and ordered the tea boy to serve tea.

Pan Liao said with a smile: "Congratulations to Your Highness for getting another noble son." ”

Guo Song smiled bitterly and said: "The child was born prematurely, congenitally insufficient, I am very worried that he will die young, I am considering implementing an amnesty, and there are some things I want to discuss with Changshi." ”

Pan Liao nodded, "The humble position fully supports His Highness's amnesty decision, does the amnesty also include prisoners of war?" ”

"This is what I want to discuss, at present there are two places for our prisoners of war, one is in the Lanzhou iron mine, and the other is the Huifu prisoner of war in Yunzhou, I want to hear the advice of Changshi."

Pan Liao thought for a while and said: "The Lanzhou Iron Mine is easy to solve, change the prisoners of war into miners, three times a month, they don't want to stay, then re-recruit, there is no problem in recruiting miners, it will not affect the mine." ”

Guo Song nodded, "What about Yunzhou?" ”

"Yunzhou is currently Zhang Qianyi is in full charge of negotiations, and there are also Hui negotiation envoys there, His Royal Highness can immediately finalize the negotiation plan and ask it to be completed within three days, so that the amnesty will be issued after three days, and it will not affect the Yunzhou prisoners of war, and it will become an amnesty in the real sense."

Guo Song took a few steps and said slowly: "Then let Hui Hui provide timber, this requirement is not too high, and the two sides signed an agreement to release the prisoners of war in advance!" ”

Within an hour, a letter eagle with a red letter box tied to its leg flew to Yunzhou, and inside was Guo Song's handwritten warrant.

On the afternoon of the next day, Sima Zhang Qianyi, who was in charge of negotiations in Yunzhou, and An Chong, the special envoy of the Hui Hui, reached an agreement that the Tang army would release the last 42,000 prisoners of war, and that the Hui would deliver 100,000 pine trees to the Tang army in the next year.

On the day the agreement was signed, the Tang army announced the release order to the Uighur prisoner of war camp, and the camp was full of jubilation, and they would be taken back to the royal city by Uighur soldiers one after another.

Zhang Qianyi immediately reported to Guo Song with an eagle letter, and early the next morning, Guo Song officially promulgated an amnesty decree and an abolition order, under the rule of the Jin Dynasty, all prisoners, prisoners of war, and official slaves were released, and at the same time, the discrimination of household registration was abolished, and special household registrations such as slave registration, music registration, craftsman registration, and military registration were abolished, all of which were regarded as civil registration.

It is not very difficult to implement the abolition order, the key is that it contains the abolition order, which is related to the vital interests of many large landowners, Guo Song did not force it, but discussed and made representations, tried not to harm the interests of everyone, and adopted the method of redemption and voluntary abolition and compensation.

Redemption was relatively simple, with each slave being redeemed by the government for ten cents, and by voluntary abolition, the government would compensate him in terms of taxes and honors.

The abolition decree has been discussed for a whole year, and finally a unified consensus has been reached at all levels.

As compensation, for each slave released by the owner of the manor, he will receive a ten-year tax exemption on one hectare of land, and more than ten slaves will be released, and the owner of the manor will also receive a knighthood, up to the county duke, and hereditary inheritance is allowed.

In addition, the slave changed to an employment relationship with the owner of the manor, the slave was free, the income was increased, and the key was that the population controlled by the Jin Dynasty would increase by three percent, which was not trivial for the expansion of the strength of the Jin army.

Guo Song's abolition decree caused an uproar in the world, there were supporters, scolded, and questioned, but Guo Song recovered the Western Regions, expeditioned back to Hui, and almost destroyed the country, his prestige was in full swing in the world, so when he launched the abolition order, abolished the status of slaves, scolded and scolded, questioned and questioned, but no one dared to challenge him with action.

Chengdu, for a few days, Li Shi, the Son of Heaven, scolded Guo Song for his unauthorized behavior, and even issued an order to abolish slavery without his consent, which is an order that will shake the country's foundation, and should be cautious, and even if it is promulgated, it should be promulgated by his own Son of Heaven Decree, what is a Jin Wang Decree?

Of course, it is impossible for Li Shi to issue such an order, and there are still a large number of slaves in his own imperial estate! Speaking of Huangzhuang, most of his Huangzhuang is gone, and the Huangzhuang in Guanzhong and Luoyang have been confiscated by Zhu Zhu, leaving only a few big Huangzhuang in the south of the Yangtze River.

Li Shi has been extremely dissatisfied with Guo Song in the past few months, the fundamental reason is that Guanzhong was defeated, he wanted to recapture Guanzhong, but the whole army was wiped out, losing more than 30,000 people, and Guo Song could obviously recapture Guanzhong, but he did not move, and if it dragged on, the people's sense of identity with the Tang Dynasty in Guanzhong really faded.

Li Shi was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, but he had no choice but to be angry in the palace every day, scolding Guo Song, making the palace maids and eunuchs tremble and walk on thin ice.

On this morning, Li Shi sent someone to find the right minister Zhang Yansheng and the left minister Cui Zao, and they scolded him for splitting his head and covering his face.

"That's your logistics? It's been two months, and the military department can't even recruit 10,000 troops, and now there are only 60,000 troops in the entire Tang Dynasty. Nanzhao riots, I can't send troops to suppress it, and Xichuan Jiedu Mansion has already existed in name only, with an army of less than 2,000, what can I do to deal with the invasion of Tibet? Do you raise the two of you to eat dry rice? ”

Zhang Yansheng and Cui Zao looked at each other, and after a while, Zhang Yansheng said with a bitter face: "The main reason is that the continuous defeat of the army over the years, the casualties are really heavy, and our pension is not in place, which causes the people to dislike the army, and the people here in Bashu are more comfortable, and they are generally reluctant to join the army. ”

Li Shi slapped the table and said angrily: "I don't want you to complain, I want to solve the problem, what if I recruit the army?" I asked for 100,000 troops, and you only recruited 7,000 men, and you said, how to solve it? ”

Cui Zao was silent for a moment and said: "The fundamental reason is the financial difficulties of the imperial court, before Weichen and Zhang Xiangguo proposed a solution to the lack of financial resources, all taxes are handed over to the imperial court, and the financial taxes of the imperial court are sufficient, so that we can come up with more money and food to recruit soldiers, not to mention 100,000 troops, 50,000 troops will definitely be recruited, but Your Majesty has always disagreed with our plan." ”

How could Li Shi agree? Commercial tax, shelf tax, tea and wine tax, etc. are all controlled by the Northern Ya, and there are millions of yuan of income every year, and most of them go into Li Shi's private treasury, if it is handed over to the imperial court, what will happen to his private income?

Li Shi would never accept this kind of plan that seriously harmed his vital interests.

After a while, Li Shi said coldly: "I know that you are fighting the idea of the inner treasury, I can't do it, the salt tax, the field tax, and the household tax have all been given to the imperial court, and you are still shouting that it is not enough, where are you spending the money indiscriminately?" ”

"Your Majesty, the imperial court's degree report is given to Your Majesty for approval every month, how much the imperial court earns, Your Majesty knows very well, Jiangdu's salt tax has not been transported for more than half a year, and the field tax cannot be collected at all, so the imperial court can only rely on the official land rent and rent and a little bit of household tax to barely support and maintain the most basic operation of the imperial court, but the expenditure of our army, the military salary will be 200,000 yuan per month, we have been in arrears for three months, the soldiers are going to make trouble, and there are hundreds of officials in the imperial court, and they have not paid the ....... this year."

"There's a problem with the field tax!" Li Shi interrupted them without hesitation.

"When I first arrived in Chengdu, I remember very clearly, there are still 10 million stone of grain in the annual court field tax revenue, why is it getting lower and lower now, last year it was only more than 3 million stone, this year's summer grain has been collected, but the field tax is less than half of last year, what is the reason for this? Obviously there is no disaster, why is it so low? ”

Zhang Yansheng sighed and said: "Your Majesty, there are many reasons, the key is land annexation, now the number of yeoman farmers is less than 20% when we first arrived in Chengdu, now there are no yeoman farmers near Chengdu, they do not pay taxes after the magnates annex the land, and the land annexation in the south of the Yangtze River is equally serious, the local tyrants have a large number of slaves, and they all have hundreds of armed villagers, and the local government does not dare to collect the field tax, without the homesteaders, of course, there will be no land tax." ”
