"Your household department will check the inventory, how much grain, oil, salt and cloth can be used in Gannan at the moment?" Li Shouhan found a few directors of the official room, and asked about this number.

Several principals were confused, not knowing what their father-in-law was asking about this medicine, so they couldn't help but secretly exchange glances. There are also those who have a fast brain, knowing that their big horses have won a battle in northern Jiangxi and Jiangxi, threatening the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. Could it be that the lord wants to break through in this direction? Occupy the favorable geographical environment upstream, and then go down the river to recover Nanjing?

His mind was spinning fast, and a series of numbers were reported in his mouth.

Li Shouhan listened and nodded. In the past few years, the operation of Gannan has seen results. Today's inventory in southern Gan can meet the consumption of at least four months of Shi Lang's nearly one million off-duty personnel.

"Within three months, how many materials can be transported to northern Jiangxi? From Guangdong and Nanzhong? Along how many rivers are you transporting through? Especially farm tools! ”

Li Shouhan's purpose is very clear, he wants to take advantage of Shi Lang's favorable conditions that after a series of wars, a large area of land in Jiangxi has been abandoned, and in some places there is basically a wilderness within a radius of dozens of miles, plus more than 200,000 strong men from Jiangxi, Huguang, Anqing and other places captured by Shi Lang, to build tuntian and big farms in this area! At the same time, taking advantage of this time to minimize the disturbance, water conservancy facilities in various places were built, rivers were dredged, rivers were dredged, roads were repaired, and pontoon bridges were erected in suitable places on rivers. And so on, all of which require a large amount of money, food, and materials to be invested in advance. Moreover, in addition to materials, all kinds of agricultural tools and tools are also in demand.

Providing these supplies to his son-in-law is not a big problem in his opinion. However, it is rare to have a problem with transportation. Therefore, he must first determine how much grain there is in the southern Gannan region and the day when the grain and materials that can support the rear will arrive.

When he saw Shi Lang's idea of preparing to build a large farm in Jiangxi, such a thought suddenly popped up in his mind, "This good son-in-law of mine won't make any Shihou big rent, right?" ”

In the history that Li Shouhan understands, Shi Lang can be regarded as more praise than depreciation after recovering Taiwan. For example, he never killed the descendants of the Zheng family for the revenge of his father and brother, but treated them kindly. What has been criticized more is that he occupied the land that had been reclaimed in Taiwan and set up the so-called system of large rents.

Shi Lang himself built 56 estates in Taiwan, and nearly half of the land in southern Taiwan was plundered by him as his own, named "Shi Hou Rent Farm". The total area of Shihou rent pastoral is about 7,500 Jia, and the rent amount of each Jia is two to three stones, which is called "Shihou big rent". In Fengshan and Chiayi, there are 10 Shihou rental halls, and 6,000 stones of grain and 2,000 taels of silver are sent to the Shi family in Beijing every year. This is why his son Shi Shilun is the Qing official in the romance "Shi Gong Case", who is not a complete Lord Shi, and single-handedly appeased the big Qing official of the golden dart Huang Tianba. The family has money, has the capital to be a clean official, and is from a marquis's family, so there is no need to worry about the official career, so naturally there is no need to scrape the ground to honor the boss and fill his pocket. However, this incomplete Lord Shi and his right-hand man Huang Tianba are not positive characters in several other commentaries. One is a cool official who kills the people of the green forest to suppress the righteous people who resist the government, and the other is a scum who betrays his friends and seeks glory. Anyway, let's see for yourself!

Shi Lang wants to build a large farm in Jiangxi, solve the food problem of hundreds of thousands of troops, and at the same time restore production and stabilize society, which cannot but be said to be a good plan. Even if Li Shouhan was a little worried in his heart, he couldn't show it.

"Erya, how much land do you plan to occupy in Jiangxi in the future? Remember to pay your taxes?! He could only warn his daughter with a little bit of ridicule.

"Father, if I want to occupy an area, write a letter to Uncle Xu in Yin Shang's hometown, and thousands of miles of land, mountains, forests and rivers will be mine. Why bother with this idea in this place where Jiangxi is still full of wars? Li Huamei scoffed at her father's words.

According to Shi Lang's plan, he planned to organize the strong men who had just been captured in several wars, and mix the strong men from various departments and localities into different categories, with a team of 100 people, to go to the countryside that had been destroyed by the war and became a haunt of tigers, leopards and jackals to carry out reclamation. Among them, based on the strong men, the older ones in the Nanyue Army, or the veterans who are not suitable for fighting with the army after being injured, are the leaders, and some veterans in the Shun army are the backbone. In this way, a force that unites soldiers and peasants is formed.

However, the results of preparing for the establishment of such social organizations or armed forces are obvious, but the initial investment is also huge. These people were served and lodging before the harvest, and the seeds, farm tools, ploughs, and cattle needed for cultivation all needed to be continuously transported by the Nanyue army. This is why Li Shouhan asked the people of Husi in advance how many farm tools and grain were stored in southern Gan and the Liangguang area.

As long as these material aids can support the late rice harvest, Jiangxi can be declared the territory of the Southern Guangdong Army from now on. At that time, Li Shouhan believed that according to the experience of the Nanyue Army in cultivating wasteland in the past, with a place like Jiangxi, not to mention supplying the hundreds of thousands of people in Shi Lang's hands, even if there were hundreds of thousands of horses, Jiangxi would be able to afford to supply.

However, problems that can be solved with money, food, and materials are not problems.

The problem that Li Shouhan was annoyed about was that Shi Lang, his good son-in-law, didn't have the intention of asking for instructions beforehand, so he did such a big thing as the incorporation of the rest of the Dashun Army. After the facts are formed, apply to him for filing. This can't be regarded as getting on the bus first and then making up the ticket, this is clearly the same as telling you that I'm in love after giving birth to the child!

Not to mention how these hundreds of thousands of Shun troops should be organized, how to give official positions, and how to supply military salaries and materials. Don't forget, they are the Great Shun Army, and there is a Tang King who is in charge of the country under the banner of the Ming Dynasty under the banner of Li Shouhan. In those documents and archives in the imperial court, the various documents about the Dashun Army are all of the same caliber. They are a group of traitors who forced the Ming Emperor to death, stirring up the Ming Dynasty and leaving only half of the country now. Everybody gets it!

But now Shi Lang has contained such a large group of people under the banner of the Nanyue Army! How should he, Li Shouhan, fight a lawsuit with those civil officials in the court?

He also told Li Huamei this worry unabashedly.

"Father! If you want me to say, the Ming Dynasty has fallen to the point where it is today, it is to give this group of civil officials and thieves too much face! If when you entered the king of Beijing Qin, you were as strong as when you pacified the rebellion of the Tusi Sultan in various parts of Nanyang, and after entering Beijing, you first took advantage of the aftermath of the great victory to kill him happily in the court, and killed these dog thieves who peed into their pants when they saw your shadow, and had nightmares at night when they heard the name, will they still give us all kinds of constraints?! In their eyes, you have been weak and deceitful! So, you give one step and they take three steps. You take three more steps, and they'll take nine steps! Until you have no way to give in, there is no way to retreat! However, it's a big deal for us to retreat to Nanzhong to be our soil emperor, regardless of whether his surname is Zhu or Li! However, the country of the Ming Dynasty was buried at the hands of this group of dog thieves! ”

"This one said that the Daming country was destroyed by Li Zicheng, the other said that the Daming country was destroyed by Huang Taiji and Nurhachi father and son, and the old Wang next door said that it was destroyed by the great eunuch Wei Zhongxian. However, in the end, it was all ruined by these civil officials! Don't forget, when Nurhachi was the general of the Dragon and Tiger, they were in high positions in the imperial court, and when Li Zicheng was still his post in northern Shaanxi, they were all in the Ying Dynasty, and when Wei Zhongxian was in power, they were busy repairing the ancestral hall for Duke Wei. How is it so good, mistakes and accusations are someone else's, they are always at the core of power, but they are holy as the lotus throne of Guanyin Bodhisattva?! ”

"Our Nanyue Army has suffered from eating these pickled things over the years, and is it less idle than this group of dogs? To be honest, the lord, the county lord is right, the current Ming court has fallen into such a tragic situation, and this group of dog thieves is inescapable! You, cowardly concession is also indispensable! ”

I don't know when, Li Peiting and Li Peilin appeared in the courtyard, standing quietly in front of the pillar. Fang Cai's impassioned words came from the mouths of the two brothers.

The words and practices of the beloved daughter, the eldest son-in-law, and the ministers of the humerus were like a slap in the face, beating Li Shouhan a little dizzy, "Could it be that what I have done all these years is wrong?" ”

"Exactly! Father! If you were willing to make a decision back then, our Nanyue Army occupied half of the south half of the Yangtze River, and defended it according to the Jianghuai, so that you could fight for the world with the Liao thieves when you entered, and you could protect the southeast half of the wall when you retreated! At the very least, the eldest brother will not die so aggrieved, so that now the eldest brother and sister are still fighting for his old Zhu family in Yimeng Mountain! We have so much money and food, can we fight for my old Li family? Is it true that the country of his old Zhu family is given by God and cannot be moved by others? ”

"The lord of the county is right! The money and food in front of it have been wasted in vain! Many of them were even taken by the shameless officers and soldiers to join the thieves, turned around, took our swords and guns, wore our armor, and had our grain and rice in their stomachs, and came to beat us! Li Peilin was a little indignant, for more than a year, he had seen too many officials and soldiers surrender from all over the country, and he had not even had time to change the flag, just put a white cloth strip on a conspicuous position and changed from the original town of the Ming Dynasty to the town of the Qing Dynasty army. The general soldier of the town is still the same general soldier, and the soldiers are still those soldiers, except that there is a white cloth strip on the banner, that is, the hair is shaved. Then he went south and killed him like a vicious god. This is quite similar to a certain army. The commander is still the commander, the commander is still the commander, and don't even shave your hair. At most, by adding the six-character mantra of "anti-communist and peaceful nation-building" to the military flag, you can turn into a soldier of the Peace Army. After a few years, these dignified soldiers of the "Xianhe Army" can stand up in the sun and accuse the government and society of all kinds of unfair treatment of these veterans who enlisted during the Anti-Japanese War as heroes who guarded Hengyang! Note that it is a "veteran who enlisted during the Anti-Japanese War", and the abbreviation is also a "veteran of the Anti-Japanese War". As for who to enter the team, who to carry guns to fight for, those volunteers and related organizations are selectively blind.

Li Peilin continued to pour out the pent-up anger in his chest, but his brother Li Peiting gently touched his arm, signaling him not to say anything more for the time being. Because at this time, Li Shouhan had already fallen into deep thought.

It didn't take long for Li Shouhan to wake up suddenly. He found that the two brothers of the Li family and his eldest daughter Li Huamei were sitting quietly beside him, with a few dragonflies on their bodies, and a few petals exuding residual fragrance on the placket.

"Brother Zong, you ordered the official office to send an edict to Shi Lang, the envoy of Jiangnan West Road, asking him to check all the departments of the Shun Army, based on the establishment of our Nanyue Army, and combine the characteristics of the soldiers and horses of the Shun Army. Preliminary, preliminary. He gave him eight towns and twenty brigades! The number of soldiers and horses must be filled in accordance with the establishment table! The shortfall was filled by the strong and good families he selected from among the soldiers and horses of the captive departments! At the same time, from among the various ministries under his command, capable personnel were sent to preach and teach in the above-mentioned ministries. Let the departments that come and go be familiar with the system of our Nanyue Army, and do not let them have a misunderstanding of our Nanyue Army bullying people! In addition, in addition to teaching the departments to master the system, the above-mentioned personnel must also teach the departments to be familiar with the tactics of our Nanyue Army, and to be familiar with the banners and signals! lest they not cooperate with each other in future wars, and they will not be rewarded and punished! ”

The instructors sent to the various departments of the Dashun Army are actually equivalent to yeast, and they will imperceptibly transform the Dashun Army step by step through the process of passing on the teaching, until they become the periphery of the Nanyue Army.

Moreover, once the remnants of the Dashun Army got accustomed to the supply system, food and salary standards of the Nanyue Army, and became familiar with the way of warfare, the generals had the heart of rebellion and planned to pull the team to try to go to him, and the subordinates would decisively give up on him, and even cut off the head of the leading officer to make meritorious service. The reason is very simple, looking at the four seas, who has the high salary and salary of the Nanyue Army? Who has a lot of artillery fire during the battle of the Nanyue Army, and if they are injured, they will be treated in a health camp, and they will have a pension to receive?

What's more, in the process of reorganizing the troops and horses, the troops of the 20 brigades in these eight towns and towns, most of the officers at all levels had to be verified and appointed by Li Shouhan and Shi Lang. If you can't negotiate the price, then you can't blame me. Shi Lang is also a pirate for many years, and he doesn't know how to eat black at all.

The next first thing is that Li Shouhan wants to settle those civil officials in the court one by one.

Li Peiting and Li Peilin said goodbye, recalling Li Shouhan's decision to kill all the way, and they were a little happy. In their opinion, the resolute and resolute male lord of the year is back.

"Today's matter, if it weren't for the fact that the big county horse was in Jiangxi to contain the rest of Li Chuang's troops, coupled with the big county lord's storm, I am afraid that the lord would still be stuck in the so-called monarch and minister's righteousness!" Li Peilin was quite proud, thinking that his timing was just right.

"Not really. You only see the appearance, but you don't see what the lord thinks in his heart. "Li Peiting is quite disdainful of his brother's opinion." In fact, do you think that the lord will turn a blind eye to the hostility and constraints of the civil and military forces in the DPRK and our Nanyue army? Do you think that the lord doesn't have a little grudge against his old Zhu family? Even if it wasn't at the beginning, after the death of the eldest young marshal, this bit of anger was enough to burn down the Zhu family's rivers and mountains for the eldest young marshal to be buried! It's just that the lord is benevolent and doesn't want to bear a bad reputation. Now, the lord and his wife have put a good reason in front of the lord. I took in hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Shun army to expel the Tartars, and also to give these people a way to rehabilitate. If you want to keep these people out, and they turn around and join the Qing army, will you deal with them? ”

If Li Shouhan said that in the Jiajing period, or in the Wanli period, if you are the Duke of Liang Guogong, you have a super grade, and even a seven-grade in the court can jump out and spray white smoke from the ancestral tomb of Li Shouhan's family, this is still good. Just kidding, how can our officials on the right path do that kind of mundane thing of fighting and killing, we are all sitting firmly in the big tent of the Chinese army, drinking tea, playing chess and bragging, you are fighting flesh and blood in front of the battle and have a relationship with me half of Tongbao? If you win, it is my command strategy that is correct, and if you are defeated, it is you who refuse to give your life.

However, now that Emperor Chongzhen is dead, Emperor Hongguang has been captured, and the entire Ming Dynasty has to rely on Liang Guogong's guns, rice bags, and money to support it.

Sure enough, when Li Shouhan, the Duke of Liang Guo, presented to the Tang King of the Prison State in the court, saying that his subordinate Shi Lang was in Jiangxi to observe the situation, give people a way to reform, and take advantage of the great victory to absorb the remnants of the Dashun Army, and prepare to give official positions according to the establishment of the Nanyue Army, he glanced at the colleagues around him with his eyes, and also glanced at the Tang King on the main seat.

"When I'm done, who's in favor and who's against?"

Naturally, no one objected. However, the decency of the imperial court still needs to be taken care of. Therefore, a decree came to Jiangxi, and according to Li Shouhan's opinion, all departments of the Dashun Army were organized into eight towns and twenty brigades, all of which were equipped according to the establishment of the Nanyue Army. The appointment of officers and generals at all levels was to be made by Gao Yigong and other high-ranking officials of the Dashun Army and submitted a plan to Li Shouhan for approval.

However, Shi Lang, the initiator of the matter, was because he took in hundreds of thousands of horses without asking for instructions, and he also had the credit of Jiangxi's great victory to recover the lost land. The imperial court decided to give Shi Lang a three-level promotion, a two-level demotion and a dismissal from his post, and a self-redemption for his pre-military service.

More than a month later, when Li Shouhan returned to Guangzhou, there was a news that put him in an embarrassing situation in front of the ladies in the inner house.

"Mrs. Gao led the families of all the departments in Shunying, led by Li Laiheng, who had already passed Shaoguan and were on their way to Guangzhou. The various ministries of Shunying discussed that the family members would be placed in Guangzhou, and everyone would do a good job for the grandfather of the country. ”

However, the ladies in the inner house looked at Qi Muge's mother and daughter, Li Zhenli's mother and daughter, and then at Liu Rus, and were deeply suspicious of this matter. Read the latest chapter of "Winning 1617 Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
