On the east and west sides of Bangjong-eup, in addition to the ditch, there is a road parallel to the ditch, and the dirt road is not compact, but it can barely be seen as a road, because the ground is higher than the land on the north and south sides.

Li Xie and his entourage mainly rode horses, but Li Xie himself was too heavy to carry ordinary horses, so he could only drive.

In the car, it was convenient for Li Xie to inspect the land condition of Fang Zhongyi.

"This dirt road is also going to be renovated, which road did the students supervise before?"

"It was the one that went to Shenyi, and two thousand lifu were organized, and the advantage of the boat was borrowed, and it was only forty miles that was built. From Fang Zhongyi to the west, you can see it after passing Zhongxize. ”

"Zhongxize is not landfilled?"

"Hold water."

"Hmm."

In the car, Li Xie nodded, and continued to observe the extension of the road with a telescope.

"There's already a sentry box?"

"Five miles and one post, ten miles and one pavilion."

"How many people can you manage?"

"A group of sentry boxes can control the settlements within ten miles, and the people and savages are now obedient and obedient, and there is no sign of restlessness."

"Is there a three-way thing between the sentry boxes?"

"No, the borders have been confirmed."

The crocodile who replied pointed in one direction, "Shou Li, please look, the ditch with willow branches in front of you is the boundary between the two nearby guard boxes. With this as the boundary, the sub-districts were divided according to the land struggle of the nearby settlements, and after almost pondering. ”

"Well, that's good!"

The sentry box is organized, but it is all played by crocodiles and brave men who have been injured and retired. Although he is disabled, because of his high salary, a pavilion chief can support at least two squads of volunteers.

With the prestige of crocodiles and brave men on the ground, plus the righteousness of two squads, it is enough to deter the local natives.

The settlements of the Yi people and the wild people are not big in the Jianghuai area, and the chickens and dogs are scattered and dense, and it is enough for the pavilion chiefs to stabilize the situation in the countryside.

The hot spots and explosive points under Li Jie's rule are nothing more than those few, excluding the Yi people and savages, and the rest are the remnants of the nations.

For the princes, how to treat the remnants of the nations is a more troublesome matter.

But for Li Jie, it just happened that he wanted to win over the Yi people and the savages, but the remnants of the countries were not.

Therefore, the princes were more resolute in killing the people and savages, but Li Xie was more resolute in killing the princes and nobles.

Anyway, most of the noble breeds are not willing to be used by him, and those who can be used by him are generally unlucky people who are marginalized in their hometowns.

As for the Yi people and savages, it is not that Li Xie wants to liberate the productive forces and develop the productive forces, it is purely these that are the largest part of the population, he has so many projects to implement, so many workshops to start, so many mines to excavate, and he can't use the remnants of the countries to go, so how many people are there?

Li solved the simplest account, the amount of earthwork for the development of land in Guanghuai and the irrigation canal, to say the least, is 3 million cubic meters.

This is only the amount of irrigation canals, including buildings, fortifications, river embankments, workshops, etc., and the amount of earth and stone is by no means casual.

Not only must there be a bureaucratic team that is in line with Huaishui Bofu, but there must also be a sufficient population base.

If you want to talk about the quality of the population, it is really good in the Gusu Wangji area.

Can it be used by him, and can it be used by hair?

He is now out of the way, and he is fighting to death by the mountains in the Gusu Wangji area, and he is also thinking that after everything is stabilized, a wave of killings will directly take away these scumbags.

When the time comes, the elite population of the entire Jiangnan region will fall into his hands.

Different from the turtles on both sides of the Huaishui, because of the existence of old monsters, all cities in the south of the Yangtze River have very rich experience in river engineering, regardless of the Chinese people and savages.

In order to increase the output of land, Wu invested a lot in water conservancy facilities.

It may not be very large, but the total amount is the first in the past 100 years.

Those who have experience and those who have no experience are two kinds of people who are very different.

The former sets rules and regulations to implement, which is much more efficient, and as long as the supervisor plays normally, the project can be carried out in an orderly manner.

The latter is difficult to say, because of the language barrier and the lack of information, many Huaiyi heard the accent of Wu Guo, and immediately frightened the whole village to run away.

The legend of the old yokai from decades ago is still popular now, limited by the shortcomings of poor traffic, and it is here.

Up to now, on both sides of the Huaishui River, there are still many terrifying legends of "Gou Chen Lai" and "Gou Chen Zhi".

Not to mention the children now, even the parents of the children have grown up listening to this story, this kind of folk foundation makes Li Xie have to consume more costs in it.

So there is no way, one is to prevent Huaiyi from commotion, and the other is to prevent Huaiyi from running away, relying on the water network composed of artificial ditches, natural rivers, etc., plus road posts, in order to suppress the natives in place and not run around.

can only let time prove that he is not a big monster who eats people.

It's not the same as Gou Chen.

The effect is great, but the payouts are also extremely touching.

Five miles and one post, ten miles and one pavilion, that is, President Li is not bad for "money", and if he is replaced by Chen Guo and Song Guo, just such a post system is enough to make them financially bankrupt.

Compared with the decentralization of power in the countryside, Li Jie's post system is simply thankless.

But one thing to say, the effect is a hundred times stronger than the tradition of the land of summers!

"The sentry box is not there in Xucheng, right?"

"Xu Cheng? No. ”

"Well, that's good."

After Li Xie put the binoculars down, he confirmed again and asked, "Really?" ”

"On the orders of Shou Li, the sentry box was only arranged in Zhongli North City."

"Hmm......"

Li Xie was relieved this time, but he still had one more sentence, "The pavilion chief doesn't have the surname Liu, right?" ”

"Nope."

"Then I'm relieved."

If there is a pavilion chief surnamed Liu, who can stand this.

However, when I looked down at my carriage, it was not luxurious, it was very good, at least the pavilion chief surnamed Liu would definitely not look down on this kind of carriage.

Huaibei's sentry box system, in fact, was born from the earliest "Baisha Yongfu", between the "sand fields", there are hope buildings, public security armed forces, that is, "Baisha Yongfu" as the head, and then screen the warriors in the "sand fields" to absorb it, form a high and low match, and then remove the backbone of the "Baisha" armed forces.

Up to now, even if the internal fighting in Wu has become white-hot, the armed forces of "Baisha" can only rely on the brave men of Baisha in Jiangyinyi after all.

It's not that the "Shaye" doesn't want to organize their own armed forces, but it's a pity that the "Lord of the Hundred Sands" doesn't allow it, and the unlucky ones who are afraid can only pray that Baisha Yongfu can really ensure that they can continue to live and work in peace and contentment on this land.

However, it backfired, and as the struggle between the local wealthy families became more and more intense, it was natural to introduce savages for their own use.

In order to prevent emergencies, the upper-level personnel in the "Baisha" gritted their teeth and simply moved to the vicinity of Jiangyinyi, and the reformed settlements and villages were all listed under the name of Jiangyinyi, which means that they were naturalized in Jiangyinyi and completely managed by Jiangyinyi.

The most important point is that they are not yet able to become city dwellers, and only a small number of people who have taken out the savings of several generations can be resettled in the city of Jiangyinyi, because the city is obviously much safer.

In the current situation, no one knows whether the nobles of Gusu Wangji will go berserk, directly plunder the population, and then play dog brains on the shore of the five lakes.

The dead are not nobles, they are cannon fodder.

So no matter how much he is slaughtered by Jiangyinyi, for the sake of his life, for the ancestral infection body to continue to spread, this knife is a mistake.

If you can endure humiliation and steal your life, why don't you live?

When you die, there's nothing.

It was also because the upper echelons of "Baisha" gave up power that "Baisha Yongfu" further took over the rule of various sand fields.

While promising to provide security to the sand fields, it is clear that the sand fields also have their obligations.

For example, the annual protection fee is absolutely indispensable.

In the sand fields where there is no field, the income from fishing and hunting is generally handed over to one-third or one-quarter, because it can be bookkeed, so it is often concentrated until the time when the harvest is the most in a year, and it is done at one time.

For example, if there are still many geese or other birds in a sand field in the first half of the year, then when the autumn harvest is made, it will be caught at one time according to this quota.

The total amount is enough.

However, this kind of sand field, which lives on fishing and hunting, is often so poor that there is nothing to say, and in the end, it is necessary to rely on labor and forced labor to pay for the arrears of taxes.

And with cultivated land, it is normal to have four or six or five or five points.

Beans and hemp crops are generally five or five points; The output of rice is four or six points, four points is taxes, and six points is one's actual income.

During the tax collection season, Baisha Yongfu also had to act as a tax collector, and his majesty was established in an instant, not only as a matter of force value.

This whole set of practices in Jiangyinyi, after being streamlined according to local conditions, is the Huaibei sentry box system, also called the sentry box system.

It can be regarded as a transitional method, in order to quickly stabilize the Yi people and wild people in their place, and not let them continue to wander.

The after-effects of last year's flood led to the emergence of a large number of uninhabited areas, and if no one is managed and sown, even the best fertile land will become grasslands, woodlands, and swamps after a year.

Even the reason why the land near Fang Zhongyi has not been developed until now is because after last autumn, when the land can be burned and the vegetation is gloomy, just weeding is an extremely desperate job.

At this time last year, there was no end to the vast area of land in Huaibei, and there were plants and trees as far as the eye could see.

It is not so much the Great Plains as the Prairie, until now, the wild elk herd in the Yingdong area has not been killed by Li Jie, you can imagine how friendly the current ecology is to the wild animals in nature.

"Did Fang Zhongyi organize a hunting team?"

After confirming that there was no pavilion chief surnamed Liu, President Li relaxed a lot and cared about other things.

"Each pavilion chief has an organization, and the Yi people and savages have also produced men to act as servants."

"Well, that's good! Very good! ”

Organizing hunting teams can not only deepen communication with each other, but also obtain a certain amount of meat protein.

Let Li Xie keep filling it with meat, when will it take to get it?

With the hunting team, not to mention the high efficiency, but also the large wild animals in the territory are emptied, protecting agricultural production, hunting income, a little bit of distribution, can ease relations, buy people's hearts.

It's still that stupid way, leave everything to time, and time will prove that Li Xie is the best one.

As for Huaiyi, who said that he was an iron backbone, then President Li didn't mind knocking the iron bones and remelting them.
