Chapter 0894 - Lack of People! There is a shortage of people!

When Kou Ji's voice landed, the personal officials and his entourage had already disappeared into the Liaoyang Mansion City Lord's Mansion.

Koji didn't chase them down, nor did he send someone to bring them back.

Whether it is a personal official or a personal follower, it is the part of the Kou Mansion.

The lives of Kou Ji and Kou Tianci father and son are not only related to the rise and fall of Kou Mansion, but also to the rise and fall of their respective families.

Therefore, their only mission is to protect the safety of Kou Ji and Kou Tianci's father and son.

For the safety of Kou Ji and Kou Tianci's father and son, they will also disobey Kou Ji's orders when necessary.

Just like on the mountain outside the capital before, Kou Ji had to help the soldiers defend against the enemy, but the personal servant officer ordered the entourage to take Kou Ji down.

Now, too, for the sake of Kou Tianci's safety, they chose to disobey Kou Ji's orders.

It was only in this kind of thing that they dared to speak out loud to Kou Ji.

For when they speak, they have put life and death aside.

They are not afraid of death, and they will not hesitate to sacrifice their lives for Kou Ji and Kou Tianci's father and son.

But they were afraid that Kou Ji and Kou Tianci's father and son would have to worry about their lives.

Koji couldn't blame them.

There is no way to completely erase their good intentions.

In addition to helping the master's family defend against the enemy, the ministry will also help the master's family block the sword and block the sword.

Koji is also a beneficiary of this rule.

Previously, when he was in Western Xia, Li Deming sent someone to assassinate him, if it weren't for the desperate efforts of the tribes, he would have been cold.

"Forget it, let them go. At that time, if Tianci can't suppress those clansmen of the Kou clan, I will let the tribes go to deter them, and if not, I will send the old guards of the patrol horse guard to the fiefdom. The patrol guards on the Wonsan side also dispatched a part.

At that time, with heavy troops in hand, and the fief is high and the emperor is far away, it is difficult to restrain the secular etiquette.

If the people of the Kou clan really want to make trouble, they will be punished severely.

Cao Yong and Wonshan are not fuel-efficient lamps.

They have been helping me do things for more than ten years, and I let them toss on their own for the rest of my life.

Whether they are kings or hegemons, or expand their territory and become emperors.

Let them go.

Leaving them a family is considered a reward for them. ”

Kou Ji muttered alone, sighed, and returned to the chair in the main hall with his hands behind his back, sat down, and took care of his business.

As Kou Ji said.

Di Qing is not a dumbfounder.

After Kou Tianci and Zhao Run were sent to Di Qing's army, Di Qing was also stunned for a long time and thought about it for a long time.

Eventually, Di Qing threw the two of them to the scout camp to help the scouts' firehead soldiers.

Although the scout camp in Di Qing's army is very dangerous, there are also safe places.

The Gunmen are the safest place in the scout camp.

On weekdays, he is responsible for boiling water and cooking for those scouts.

Now he is in charge of boiling water for the captives to get rid of lice with the other fireheads.

The fireheads of the scout battalion also have a chance to go into battle, but not much.

The prerequisite is that the other scouts in the scout camp are dead before the fireheads will go into battle.

As long as the scouts in the scout camp still have something, the fireheads can only cook in the camp in peace.

Although Di Qing is loyal and brave, he is not the kind of rigid person.

In public or private, Di Qing would not send Zhao Run and Kou Tianci to get into danger.

Yu Private, he is Zhao Run's uncle, Kou Tianci's uncle, the elder of the two little guys, the two little guys are under his hands, it's too late for him to protect them, how can he let the two little guys go to death.

If his son appeared in the army, he would not hesitate to throw his son into the most dangerous place in the army.

But the son of his brother and the son of his sister, he did not want to throw them into the most dangerous places.

Even when the two little ones are in danger, he will fight hard for the two little ones.

In the thinking of the ancients, relatives and friends entrust their heirs to you, that is, trust you, and your whole family can die, but the heirs entrusted by relatives and friends must not have anything to do.

Di Qing is a pure ancient, or the kind of ancients who are very well-behaved, so he has always followed this kind of thinking.

Yu Gong, Zhao Run, and Kou Tianci were not old enough to enlist in the army.

After the reform of the military system in the Great Song Dynasty, the age requirements for new soldiers to enlist in the army were very strict, with the minimum age not being less than 16 years old and the maximum being no more than 45 years old.

The only military affairs that the ministers can interfere in now is the age of the soldiers when the imperial court recruits soldiers.

In order to prove that they still have an influence on military affairs, they kept a close eye on the imperial court when recruiting soldiers.

When a young soldier or an over-age soldier appears, it is very likely that the ministers will make trouble in the Vertical Arch Palace.

It is precisely because of this that when the Ministry of War presided over the recruitment, it was very strict with the age card.

Not to mention that they don't accept it if they don't pass the age, even if the age is relatively vague or doubtful, they won't accept it.

Zhao Run and Kou Tianci's age did not meet the standard.

If Kou Ji hadn't thrown them into Di Qing's hands, Di Qing wouldn't have let them enter the barracks.

They were not old enough to enlist, so it was impossible for Di Qing to send them into battle.

Unless Kou Ji personally issued a document asking Di Qing to get the two of them to the battlefield.

Otherwise, Di Qing would follow the rules of the army.

Di Qing was doing things according to the rules, but Zhao Run and Kou Tianci were a little confused, the two little guys cheered each other up, encouraged each other, and entered the military camp with the determination to die.

Then Di Qing asked them to chop wood and boil water?

Even if you chop wood and boil water, you have to give those Liao people those smelly clothes that can smoke people to death.

The two little guys only worked for half a day, and they couldn't vomit straight.

It made the veterans in the army laugh.

Annoyed, the two little ones went to Di Qing and asked Di Qing to put them in the most dangerous place.

Then Di Qing showed them what it means to be a military order.

One man was beaten with ten sticks, and his buttocks were rotten.

On the first day of the barracks, the two little ones climbed into bed before they could adapt to life in the army.

After Kou Ji's personal officers and entourage rushed to the army, after learning about this, they rolled their eyes at Di Qing.

But they didn't complain about Di Qing.

Di Qing beat Zhao Run and Kou Tianci in accordance with military regulations, let alone them, even if Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji arrived, they could only say that they fought well.

Nothing else can be said.

The two little ones just lived in the army.

Kou Ji didn't pay much attention to it.

He didn't have time to pay attention.

After the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty entered the capital, less than one million people were captured.

However, the territory occupied by the Great Song Dynasty is enough to have three prefectures.

One million captives were distributed to the three provinces, and each province was more than 300,000.

It was then distributed to the counties, counties, and towns of the states, and it was almost empty.

There is no way to set up a village.

Because if it is further divided, there may be one or two households in one village and one township.

Nearly eighty percent of the land in Liaodi is in a barren state.

Seeing that the spring ploughing is almost over, there is no one to cultivate on the land, and no one to herd horses and sheep.

Kou Ji sent someone to the imperial court to deliver a letter, asking the imperial court to send some officials over, and then relocate a large number of people.

After the documents were delivered to Bianjing.

Zhao Zhen, Lu Yijian, Wang Zeng, and Zhang Zhibai looked at their hair.

"Although after Liaodi was brought under military control, the demand for officials became less, but in the land of Sanfu, there were more than 2,000 officials.

More than 2,000 officials, where can we go to find them? ”

Inside the Shikudo.

Zhang Zhibai looked at Zhao Zhen, Lu Yijian, and Wang Zeng with a bitter face, and said in a low voice.

Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng frowned and did not speak.

Zhao Zhen glanced at the three of them, and said lightly: "Now you don't complain about the king of the land, right?" If this trend continues, the speed of the imperial court's election of officials cannot keep up with the speed of territorial expansion.

If I don't make a king, they will have to stand on their own.

If they don't stand on their own, the barbarians will rise again. ”

When Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng heard this, their brows furrowed even tighter.

Zhang Zhibai smiled bitterly: "There is no need to follow this trend." Now the speed of the imperial court's election of officials can no longer keep up with the speed of territorial expansion.

Even if the imperial court stops and does not expand now.

The speed of the imperial court's election of officials could not keep up.

With the continuous sinicization of our new territory, the yamen at all levels such as prefectures, prefectures, and counties are also gradually improving.

The number of officials in need is also increasing.

A month ago, Li Di, who was sitting in Hexi, sent a letter asking the imperial court to send 300 officials to Hexi to improve the government system in Hexi.

Li Di said that after several years of indoctrination in Xiliang and Suzhou in Hexi, the local people have become completely accustomed to the discipline of the laws of the Great Song Dynasty.

The newborn children, under the teaching of Mengxue, have become accustomed to writing Chinese characters and speaking Chinese.

Some places in Hexi are now no different from other places in the Great Song Dynasty.

It is necessary to improve the yamen in various places.

On the Xingqing Mansion where Wang Sui sits, Dongping Mansion and Xiping Mansion, as well as Yinzhou, Xiazhou and other places, the situation is similar to that of Xiliang and Suzhou in the west of Li Di River.

Wang Sui had long ago petitioned the imperial court to end the local military administration and restore civil affairs.

Therefore, Xingqing Mansion still needs a large number of officials. ”

After listening to Zhang Zhibai's words, Wang Zeng took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "If I am not bad as expected, by the end of the year, the territory occupied by the East China Sea Nuzhi and the Wei Room will also become the territory of my Great Song Dynasty."

More officials will be needed then. ”

The place occupied by the East China Sea Nuzhi and the Wei Chamber, if subdivided, is roughly equivalent to the land of the Four Prefectures of the Great Song Dynasty.

The Great Song Dynasty did not initially set the place occupied by the East China Sea Nuzhi and the Wei Room as a must-conquer place.

But he fought too fast, and he killed him by accident.

Since it was fought, there was naturally no reason to give up halfway.

According to the number and strength of the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty who have now entered the East China Sea Nuzhi and Wei Chamber.

The place occupied by the East China Sea Nuzhi and Wei Room will inevitably fall into the hands of the Great Song Dynasty in the end.

So Da Song must prepare in advance.

After hearing Wang Zeng's words, Lu Yijian finally spoke, "We have been preparing for a long time, but we didn't expect the Liao people to be so unbeaten.

The speed at which we selected officials could not keep up with the speed at which the Liao people were defeated and retreated. ”

Zhao Zhen said helplessly: "Now is not the time to talk about this, now we will first equip the officials of the three mansions that Kou Ji needs."

The rest of the place will be talked about when it is down.

As for Hexi and Xingqingfu and other places to ask for additional officials, let them wait. ”

Lu Yijian frowned, and muttered: "It's not that my Great Song Dynasty can't get together officials, the key is that after the newly conquered land was returned to military management, the demand for low-level officials has decreased sharply, but the demand for middle-level and upper-level officials has not decreased.

Low-level officials also need to make an exception to be selected from among some scholars in the private sector.

No matter how bad it is, it is okay to draw another group of people from among the small officials.

But middle- and upper-level officials have no way to make an exception.

It could only be drawn from the existing middle and upper-level officials of the imperial court. ”

The most difficult problem is the issue of drawing from the middle and upper echelons of officials.

The current officials of the Great Song Dynasty have been transferred several times.

Today, the yamen at all levels have been streamlined to an unprecedented level.

If you pull it again, something will happen.

Wang Zeng said in a deep voice: "We don't transfer officials from the imperial court, do we let Kou Ji find a way to equip the newly acquired land of Sanfu with officials?" ”

"No way!"

Lu Yijian spoke decisively.

If you really want Kou Ji to equip the newly acquired land of Sanfu with officials, then the newly acquired land of Sanfu may become the Kou family's private land in the future.

Ko Ji's power is now amazing.

and add bricks and tiles to Kou Ji, if Kou Ji himself does not rebel, the people under him will also rebel.

Wang Zeng said in a deep voice: "I naturally know that it can't be done, so even if we grit our teeth, we have to find a way to get together the officials that Kou Ji wants." ”

Lu Yijian was silent for a while, and said, "Some doctors from Taixue and Guozijian can be appropriately transferred. The adjutants in the Sixth Department and other yamen can also be transferred. ”

Wang Zeng pondered and said: "The chief officials of each province cannot be moved, but the adjutant of each province can be transferred. After the transfer, no official filled it, so it was left vacant for the time being, and then slowly filled. ”

Zhang Zhibai groaned: "In this way, it can barely be equipped with enough officials that Kou Ji needs. But when it comes to doing things at the court and in the local government, I'm afraid it will become very difficult. ”

Lu Yijian sighed and said, "If it's difficult, it's difficult." It's good to get through it. ”

Speaking of this, Lu Yijian saluted Zhao Zhen, "The official family, several princes and princesses were born last year, and the official family did not celebrate with the whole country. It's better to add Enke again this year to celebrate the birthdays of several princes and princesses, what do the officials think? ”

Zhao Zhen stared at Lu Yijian and said, "I have already added it once." ”

There is a regular branch this year, and Zhao Zhen previously found a reason to add Enke again, and then adding Enke is the third subject.

The three imperial examinations were taken in the same year, which was a bit crazy.

Lu Yijian said solemnly: "My Great Song Dynasty is in urgent need of talents now, and it is reasonable to use some extraordinary means. ”

Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "Then add it...... The three subjects are examined together, and since the emergence of the imperial examination system, there has never been one. I don't know if the people will scold me for being a faint king. ”

Lu Yi said with a straight face: "The people of the people will only sing praises to the officials. ”

Zhao Zhen shook his head and smiled, and said, "That's how the official's business should be done." What do the three Aiqing think about the relocation of the people? ”

Lu Yijian spoke almost without hesitation, "When the household department inspected before, many extremely poor people were found. Officials can issue orders for local governments to send those who are destitute to them. ”

Zhao Zhen was stunned for a moment and said, "The people who are destitute don't seem to be ...... enough."

The new land of conquest, but not only Kou Ji proposed that Liaoyang Mansion and other places need people.

Bohai Mansion, Langya Mansion, and Gumeng Mansion are also needed.

The destitute people are not enough to stuff the teeth of these six mansions.

Lu Yijian hesitated for a moment and did not speak.

Of course, he knew that there were not enough people living in extreme poverty.

But the poor people are not moving.

The people in destitute people are really so poor that they have no place to stand.

The local government is too lazy to take care of them, and so are the local heroes.

In the past, the destitute people could not survive in poverty, and they would fall into the grass.

Now that the imperial court has strengthened the local soldiers, the grass cowards are beaten and cannot survive.

The destitute people can no longer go to the grass.

If it weren't for the imperial court's certain requirements for relocating the people, the local government would have sent the destitute people to Hexi and Xingqing Mansion long ago.

The local tycoons hardly use the destitute people as tenants.

They will only look for tenants for poor people who have a little bit of land.

There is no other reason.

When the poor people were tenants for them, something went wrong, and they could find a way to recover the losses from the poor people.

The destitute people have nothing, and if the destitute people have nothing, they can only consider themselves unlucky.

The usual tricks and grabbings in land annexation are like this.

The local tyrants took advantage of the fact that when the tenants were helping them to farm, there was a problem, and then the responsibility was put on the tenants, so as to get the little land in the hands of the tenants.

Therefore, the local tycoons generally do not use the destitute people, unless the destitute people sign a long deed with them like a deed of sale.

But the majority of the destitute people do not sign a long-term contract with the local tycoons like a deed of sale.

Once you sign a long-term contract, you will be forced to death by local tyrants.

In ancient times, when the imperial power did not go to the countryside, the local tyrants had the means to kill people but not pay for their lives.

It is precisely because of this that the destitute people would rather fall into the grass than sign a long deed like a deed of sale.

The imperial court will get these people to the newly acquired land of Sanfu, and the local heroes will not object, and no one will say anything.

But if the court moves the poor people and the meat on the plates of the local tyrants, they will definitely jump up and fight against the court.

It was precisely because of the consequences of moving those poor people that Lu Yijian did not mention the poor people.

Lu Yijian knew what the consequences of moving those poor people were, and Zhao Zhen also knew it.

Zhao Zhen saw that Lu Yijian was silent, so he muttered: "Can't you relocate some poor people to the past?" ”

Lu Yijian hesitated for a moment, and said frankly: "Finding a reason to gather hundreds of thousands of people from all over the country should have no impact." If you exceed a certain number, I'm afraid there will be big problems. ”

Zhao Zhen sighed and said, "A hundred thousand is a hundred thousand, it's better than nothing." ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Zhen said to Lu Yijian and the others: "The three Aiqing will handle this matter as soon as possible." Strive to send people over before the end of spring ploughing.

If the spring ploughing is missed, the imperial court will have to support the captives and the people who have migrated for a year.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of the imperial court were fighting outside, and money and grain flowed out like flowing water.

Add to that more than a million captives, and nearly a million poor people, and the cost will be even greater. ”

Lu Yijian and the three of them saluted Zhao Zhen together.

"The ministers know the severity, and they must deal with this matter as soon as possible."

Zhao Zhen waved his hand and asked Lu Yijian and the three of them to go down to do things.

After Lu Yijian and the three left.

Zhao Zhen sighed, "This is not enough for the people." Now that almost all of the forbidden troops are fighting outside, I can't use it if I want to.

Since Liaodi has been defeated, it cannot be wasted.

I'll send a letter to the fourth brother and let the fourth brother look at it. ”

Zhao Zhen made a decision, so he wrote a letter and left it on the dragon case.

Zhao Zhen's letter, Kou Ji couldn't receive it for a while.

After Kou Ji sent the documents to the imperial court, he took some wounded and retired soldiers in the army, led the prisoners, and began to divide land and houses in Liaoyang Mansion and other places.

Let the captives farm and herd sheep under the supervision of the soldiers.

During this period.

Kou Ji has also been keeping an eye on the military.

Several sides of the war, except for Di Qing's department, which has completely stopped.

Gao Chu Gong, Liu Heng, Zhu Neng, Chong Shiheng and others are still fighting.

Under the strong soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, whether it was the Liao people who fled into the Wei room, or the Wei people, or the women of the East China Sea, they were almost no opponents.

But Nuzhi and Wei Mu did not completely give up resistance because of the strong Song soldiers.

They were no match for the Great Song soldiers and horses on the frontal battlefield.

hid in the mountains and forests, and frequently sent small-scale soldiers and horses to harass and raid the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty.

Wei Room and Nuzhi sent it like this, which really caused a lot of trouble to the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty.

Such tactics are fundamental to the survival of all the tribes of the land.

In the face of the Liao attack, they used such tactics to deal with the Liao.

Every time the Liao people exterminated the largest tribe among them, they would retreat.

One of the largest was the Liao people's battle against Goryeo.

When the Liao people were conquering Goryeo, they once hit Kaesong, the capital of Goryeo.

Beat the regular soldiers and horses of Goryeo and threw away their armor.

Most of the royal family and nobles of Goryeo were slaughtered.

Goryeo can almost be said to be doomed.

At that time, Goryeo Xianzong used the tactics of raiding and harassment, and frequently harassed the Liao soldiers.

The Liao State was eventually forced to withdraw its troops.

Goryeo was thus saved.

Otherwise, I am afraid that a long time ago, Goryeo would have ceased to exist.

Today, the East China Sea Nuzhi and Wei Room borrow the same tactics.
