In Yuzhou, the people in exile gradually joined the people, and the population that could be counted by the county increased day by day.

Pang Lin led the state department to inspect the county, the climate was increasingly arid, and the water conservancy facilities damaged by the war also needed to be repaired.

Unfortunately, there are many problems in Yuzhou, first of all, the lack of manpower.

The whole of Yuzhou is like a grassland with a complete free-range, and Pang Lin does not make any adjustments or interventions.

As the front line of the war, Yuzhou suffered very large losses, and a large number of people fled in all directions, and now because of the peaceful environment, the population who fled in the mountains returned to the villages and cities.

This population ...... It can only be used as a seed, and it is okay to mobilize these people to repair water conservancy, but if they are mobilized to fight, then they will definitely disperse in a hurry.

A difficult problem is placed in front of Pang Lin, and now Yuzhou's manpower and material resources cannot do the overall planning of water conservancy restoration.

The people of the counties were frightened and could not bear to be forced into labor, and the government had no surplus grain reserves, so they could only levy manpower in close proximity and organize them to carry out water conservancy work around their respective fields.

This is a last resort to build dams everywhere to stop the flow of river water, resulting in uneven water use between upstream and downstream in this increasingly dry summer. It also leads to uneven dams and water mounds, which will burst in spring and autumn, wash away fields, and cause greater agricultural harm.

At the same time, it is not necessarily effective to work the population.

Therefore, the whole of Yuzhou is completely in a state of recuperation, and Pang Lin does not do anything to deal with it, and the people of each county and county deal with the drought on their own.

Without intervening and allowing the people to recuperate on their own, more people who were hiding in the mountains and wilderness and the defeated soldiers could take the initiative to return to the farming area.

The more the government levies and distributes conscription, and the more it wants to make big moves, the more tired and resistant the people will become.

After all, Yuzhou will be beaten to rot or not, which will bring many governance problems to Pang Lin.

If Yuzhou is completely destroyed, it is completely possible to concentrate the people in fertile and well-supplied areas for planting.

However, if all of them are destroyed, no matter how rotten the county is, the people will still return to their homeland, and such villages have lost too many people, leaving a small population, that is, they lack resistance to bandits, and it is difficult to concentrate on resisting natural disasters.

The dotted population clusters also make it more difficult to collect, collect taxes, and govern.

But no matter how fierce the war is, these people still feel nostalgic for their homeland...... It shows that the normal administrative means are not able to relocate them.

This is also normal, a village has a population of 180 households, and two-thirds or more of the population is scattered and moved; The remaining one-third or one-quarter of the population will be the future owners and main ethnic groups of the village as long as they gain a foothold.

If you respond to and obey the migration of the government, you will be centrally managed; Then how much land the government gives, that is, how much land, is not conducive to future development.

Moreover, the common people do not necessarily like to expand agricultural production...... As long as their families do not starve to death, the people are not very interested in increasing the excess production, and they lack enthusiasm.

Even if agricultural production is reduced, the people who have been tormented by the war can accept it, and it is nothing more than eating in the wild.

If you work hard to farm and increase agricultural production, you won't get much benefit; Even an increase in agricultural production and an increase in the government's war reserves will push more agricultural population into the whirlpool of war.

The soldiers who came in the troubled times had their own concept of survival; The people are even more surviving in the cracks, and the concept of survival is very simple: just don't starve to death.

Under the torture of these years of high-intensity warfare, the people would rather gather, fish and hunt than farm.

The income brought by farming could not be reduced much, and it was mainly requisitioned by the Great Wei court and thrown into the war.

The Han court appointed officials, and the township community, pavilion, and county officials were almost still local old people, and many grassroots officials in the Wei State became officials of the Han court.

The imperial court has changed back and forth, and it is still those people who are responsible for collecting taxes and levying labor...... In the face of these people, the people are really resistant to labor.

Pang Lin really had no choice but to completely abandon management, put everyone into production, and then promote and adjust officials according to the grain production and production efficiency of each county.

Now the inspection of the county is only to expose the lawlessness and crack down on the officials who levy the common people for forced labor and carry out labor.

Completely abstain from voting, let the people recuperate on their own, and wait for this breath to ease up, and after the family has savings, then taxes and levies will be levied, and the people will be willing to cooperate.

Otherwise, they will scatter in a hurry and hide back in the wilderness.

In the wilderness, you are not a thief, and if you hide for a long time, you will do something that a thief does.

By the end of April, Pang Lin had made a circle around Yuzhou County before returning to Runan, the administrative office, and wrote official documents to Yanzhou Mumaliang, the Beifu Garrison, and the Imperial Court, asking for the transfer of Beifu soldiers to assist in suppressing the bandits.

There are many sources of bandits in Yuzhou, including the development of the Wei army who fled in the rout, the common people who evaded forced labor in the early years, and the heroes who broke the law in these years and became bandits with their troops.

Large-scale bandits will have some pursuits, and some will seek recruitment, reward and official position; Some people are still stuck in the past, wanting official positions and rewards, but also wanting to maintain control over their subordinates.

There are even more small bandit groups, who lack the negotiating skills and do not want to be co-opted and punished, so they have to continue to live tenaciously in the remote wilderness.

Yuzhou has not been completely destroyed, and there are small-scale population returns in all counties and townships...... With these local indigenous people, there is no turning back for small-scale banditry.

The local indigenous people naturally have memories and witnesses to the crimes they committed in the past.

The petty bandits surrendered and almost could not escape trial; Naturally, it was impossible for them to be sent to the door to be cleaned up, so they had to continue to live their own lives.

Yuzhou, which is already riddled with holes, urgently needs the grain harvested in the summer and autumn to rest its vitality, and naturally it cannot be harmed by bandits.

There are 12 battalions of Yuzhou soldiers in Beifu, which were originally to be transferred to Yuzhou as a security force in Yuzhou.

These government soldiers were reluctant to leave the collective of Beifu, which led to the lack of bandit suppression forces in Yuzhou.

The same problem was in front of Mu Ma Liang in Yanzhou, which was the front line on the border with Wei, and the people preferred to flee and continue to hide in the wilderness rather than return to the city to resume production.

The clouds of war loom over Yanzhou...... This also simplifies the way Maleonn works.

It's the same, the internal rebels and bandits are messy, and those who are sold at a price are sold, and there are those who simply eat a mouthful.

This kind of thing, Pang Lin will comprehensively sort out here, and the bandits will come to Yanzhou; Then find an opportunity to run back to the old base in Yuzhou, which is very troublesome to deal with.

The only way to do this is to unite and sweep together to deal with banditry within the borders.

What is a bandit? It is the prime of labor.

Beifu refuses to decompose, and the impact is multifaceted.

For example, now, it has affected the post-war recovery of Yanyu Prefecture, which is much slower than expected.

Because it is not possible to quickly and efficiently wipe out the bandits in the territory.

Pang Lin and Ma Liang's official documents were sent to Jiangdu almost at the same time, and dysentery in Jiangdu also broke out rapidly.

Since the beginning of June, the haze of dysentery has shrouded the inside and outside of Jiangdu.

When the news reached Xiangyi, Tian Xin was also relieved, fortunately, it was not hemorrhagic fever or anything else, just dysentery.

This is relatively easy to control and prevent, but it will have to suffer a little.
