At this time, outside Lujiabao, like other soldiers, Ning Yabai, who was wearing armor inside and a loose linen robe outside, pulled out the long sword at his waist with a cold expression and said loudly: "Now we are not soldiers, just a group of thugs who kill people without blinking.

As long as there is anyone alive in the fort, I will kill all of them, and not a single one will be left. Kill! ”

With Ning Yabai's order, more than 3,000 soldiers from the northwest disguised as rebels shouted together to kill Lujiabao in front.

Looking at Lujiabao, which was besieged by a large number of soldiers, Ning Yabai showed a cruel sneer.

There are always some self-righteous and intelligent people in this world who think that what they are doing is very secretive and will not be discovered by others.

I didn't know that the Lu family's small actions of trying to find out the secrets of the salt works had long been seen by their Ning family.

These people didn't know that in order to keep the salt factory secret, the Ning family not only sent heavy troops to guard the salt farm, but also sent a large number of spies to infiltrate the people to monitor the movements of other clans and officials at all levels.

The reason for this tension is that these new salt farms in Jiujiang have now become the most important source of income for the Northwest Army.

In particular, the salt farms that use the salt pan method are the top priority. Anyone who wants to snoop on the secrets of the coveted salt works will become the Ning family's sworn enemy.

The Ning family has always had only one way to deal with their mortal enemies, and that is to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, leaving no one behind.

Lu Jiaqian shouldn't, shouldn't, just moved his brains to the salt field, which they brought on themselves.

Almost at the same time, many families in Jiujiang Mansion, including the Qi family, the Tian family, the Su family, and the Hu family, were attacked by the "chaotic people" at the same time.

This is not only the case for the various families in Jiujiang, but also in other prefectures such as Zhangnan, Huaixing, Zhangzhou, etc., where civil unrest broke out: many local families were attacked by the "chaotic people" who suddenly appeared, and countless people were killed and injured.

In addition to these clans, which have been in possession for many years, the various prefectures and cities where riots have occurred have also undergone great changes.

For some reason, there was an internal commotion among the rioters, and hundreds of "rioters" armed with sharp knives suddenly attacked the leading mob, stabbing to death several mob leaders in an instant.

After succeeding, the "rebels" armed with sharp knives did not leave there, but joined together to carry out a bloody massacre of other mobs.

The ruffians and hooligans among the mob have no ability to resist at all under the hands of these extremely powerful "rebels", so they can only be slaughtered.

These people are like wolves entering a flock of sheep and killing people with impunity, and no one dares to stop them.

Others screamed in fright and fled in fright after witnessing their companions being stabbed and slashed alive by these "rebels" armed with sharp blades.

However, these "rioters" armed with sharp knives did not let them go, especially those thugs who did a lot of evil, and at this time they became the target of those people's key pursuits.

This is a living massacre, known in history as the "Autumn Rebellion".

Because this day happens to be the day when Dawei holds the autumn festival.

There is no exact number in the history books as to how many people died in this civil uprising, but historians generally believe that it will not be less than 100,000, because almost all the famous families in various places at that time were slaughtered.

Among them, Lujiabao in Jiujiang was the worst, and none of the thousands of people in the whole clan were spared, and no one survived.

Although everyone knew what was going on, no one dared to talk nonsense at this time.

Especially those who were lucky not to be attacked by the "rioters" and survived, the families who survived were even more frightened and trembling like quails.

They didn't expect that the world-famous Northwest General would play his cards completely out of common sense, and even let his soldiers disguise themselves as rebels and kill them, and they would shoot so ruthlessly.

It is said that the Lu family was really killed until the chickens and dogs were left, and there was no way to live.

Other families who also participated in inciting civilians to rebel behind the scenes were not wiped out, but they also suffered heavy casualties and ruined families. All the adult males were killed, and only the women and children survived.

This Ning family is really ruthless! If you don't make a move, you will kill people like numbness.

They really have a hard time talking about it now, because it is not the Northwest Army that did it, but those "chaotic people", and there is no proof of death in this matter, and there is nowhere to shout if they want to cry out for injustice.

As for how those chaotic people came to be at the beginning, they naturally knew it in their hearts.

The reason why these families survived was only because they didn't get too involved in the matter, otherwise they would have ended up like the other families.

Under these circumstances, the work carried out by the north-western authorities in various parts of the north-east to measure land and inventory hidden households has been remarkably smooth and has not encountered any obstacles.

……………………

"Have you heard? The government issued a notice saying that the new land could now be claimed, and as long as it had been cultivated for five years, the field would belong to the cultivator, and the land tax would be calculated according to ordinary fields, and they could be bought and sold at will. ”

"Did you hear me wrong? There is no such good thing in the world. ”

"It's true, when I was in the market today, I heard the clerks of the yamen read these notices at the gate of the vegetable market, and explained them to the villagers. That's what I heard.

However, there are also conditions for this claim to new fields, first of all, they must be adult good citizens, and each person can only claim three to five acres of land. In addition, during the five-year period of cultivation, the annual land income is as high as 50%. ”

"Gonarita Fu?! Isn't this about human life?

These five Narita taxes plus poll tax, average silver, fire consumption, Lianyong silver, cabinet fees, scale fees, lock fees and other miscellaneous taxes, aren't the past five years in vain? We eat the northwest wind, huh? It's really tricky. ”

"I thought the same way at first, but the clerks said that as long as you claim Xintian, you only need to pay the 50% field tax within five years, and all other miscellaneous taxes will be exempted.

For the sake of fairness, the government will also sign a contract with the people who lead the land, which is clearly written in black and white. ”

"Is there such a good thing? Only pay 50% of the land tax every year, and don't pay any other miscellaneous taxes? The eyes of the other villagers lit up, and they all gathered around to inquire.

"I guess so, at least that's what the book clerks say."

"If there is such a good thing, then we have to inquire about it. Bolts, are those bookstores still in town? ”

"Yes, I've heard that they will stay in town for a few days to explain the new policy to the villagers."

"I said in charge, why don't we go to town and inquire. It's good to ask. ”

"Okay, let's go now."

"Are you really going? Then I'll go with me. ”

"Then I'll go too."

In this way, a large group of villagers traveled together and rushed to the town to inquire about the new policy.

This phenomenon has occurred one after another in all prefectures and cities in Northeast China, causing great sensation and repercussions among the people.

People are forgetful, although there have been a number of shocking mob killings in various places not long ago, and the smell of blood has not completely dissipated.

But now, as soon as the villagers heard that the government had a share of land, many people selectively forgot about it and hurried to the city to ask what was going on.

A few days later, some of the more courageous villagers finally gritted their teeth and signed a contract with the government after inquiring clearly, claiming a few acres of new land.

This new policy is really too seductive, although it is said that 50% of the land tax will be paid every year for the past five years, but if you really don't have to pay other miscellaneous taxes, it will be about the same as the expenditure of ordinary homesteaders.

As long as you grit your teeth and plow for five years, you can get this field, and then you will take advantage of it whether you sell it or continue to cultivate it yourself. That's a few acres of land.

Seeing that some people began to claim Xintian, other villagers couldn't help but participate in the claim.

For a time, these new fields became extremely sought-after and were quickly claimed.

Many villagers who only found out about it afterwards, or who were too hesitant at the time and missed the opportunity, regretted it after seeing that Xintian had been claimed.

When listening to the people below say that Xintian's claim was going very smoothly, Ning Zhiyuan was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth with a smile.

This policy was proposed by Mr. Zhang Wenxuan, and he applauded at that time. This is indeed a good way to steadily increase the food supply.

In order to get those new fields, the villagers will definitely grit their teeth and gather these fifty fields in the next five years.

In addition to these new land endowments, the land under the name of those wealthy families must also pay a sufficient amount of land tax every year according to the regulations of the government, and it is no longer possible to use various tax avoidance methods to exempt the field tax as before.

In this way, the income of the official field, the field tax under the name of the family Haoqiang, the fifty percent of the land tax of Xintian, and the land tax of many small homesteaders, the output of these fields should be enough to supply the daily consumption of more than 200,000 soldiers of the Northwest Army and all war horses.

This is true self-sufficiency.

As for these new fields that were added out of thin air, they were naturally the encroached land that was taken back from the hands of those wealthy families.

Its number is as high as three to four percent of the local official fields, which shows how greedy those big families are.

Through this large-scale re-measurement of land and the policy of checking hidden households, the Ning family can be said to have gained a lot of gains.

Not only did they take back a large amount of the occupied fields, but they also snatched a large amount of various materials, including gold and silver treasures, from the dozens of families who were overturned by the Northwest Army, so that the treasury was full at once, and new warehouses needed to be built.

These families have been in charge for many years or even more than ten generations, and they have been looting in the local area for so long, so they are naturally all fat.

While Ning Zhiyuan was eradicating these sticks, the belongings they hid naturally accepted unceremoniously, making his net worth skyrocket in an instant.

What's more, these families all have a lot of food hidden in their homes.

With these grain stocks, the Northwest Army will not be short of food for at least a year or two.

Ning Zhiyuan is not a stingy person, while earning a lot of money, he is also very generous to distribute part of his property to various generals of the military, and even ordinary soldiers have all added a month's salary, which can be described as a great joy.

Chi Fei, who was also given a large amount of property, had a very subtle sense of weirdness.

It's like his father-in-law is a bandit leader, and he is a dog-headed military advisor in this bandit's den.

Because recently, my father-in-law, the bandit leader, successfully robbed a fat sheep and made a lot of money, so everyone, including him, a dog-headed military advisor, got a lot of stolen goods.

Since my father-in-law betrayed the court, the gangsterism on his body seems to be getting heavier and heavier.

Especially after doing this vote, his father-in-law's eyes seemed to glow like wolves from time to time when he talked about other families that still remained.

Was this his delusion?
