As soon as Zhang Kewang heard this, his heart was half cold.
What kind of temperament is the father-in-law, he knows best as a son-in-law.
Zhang Xianzhong has a perverse personality, moody, and will kill people when he gets angry. Regardless of whether it is an old brother who has been with him for many years, or a newcomer who has just joined, as long as he annoys Zhang Xianzhong, he will be immediately ordered to be executed.
Even Zhang Xianzhong's four righteous sons are sometimes pointed at their noses and scolded by Zhang Xianzhong. Zhang Dingguo, Zhang Wenxiu, Zhang Nengqi, including him Zhang Kewang, which one has not been scolded?
Once, Zhang Wenxiu was scolded by Zhang Xianzhong in front of a group of generals because he had less food, and he didn't save face at all.
Therefore, the Great Western Army went up to the four "princes" and down to the ordinary generals to live in fear, for fear that they would accidentally commit Zhang Xianzhong's taboo.
This Liu Jinzhong can also be regarded as an old man who followed Zhang Xianzhong to fight the country in his early years, and he is very brave and good at fighting. But there is a problem with this guy, that is, underestimating the enemy's rashness.
It's okay to encounter the Ming army with poor strength, but this time he went to attack Hanzhong to face the Eight Banners of the Qing Army.
Azig left thousands of banner soldiers in Hanzhong in order to be optimistic about the southern gate of Shaanxi.
Liu Jinzhong rushed over like this, but he was in the hands of Azig.
"Father, please calm your anger. General Liu also underestimated the enemy for a while, so let him spare this time. ”
In any case, Liu Jinzhong is also a fierce general, Zhang Kewang couldn't watch Zhang Xianzhong order him to be executed, so he gritted his teeth and pleaded with Zhang Xianzhong for him.
Zhang Xianzhong's eyes widened like cowbells, his cheeks bulged and bulged, and he finally let out a breath after holding it for a long time.
"That's it, since Wang'er you intercede for him, let's spare his life. However, capital sins can be forgiven, but living sins are unforgivable. Let's Lao Tzu want to write a holy decree and order someone to send it to Suining, and teach Liu Jinzhong, the turtle son, a good lesson! ”
Zhang Kewang was overjoyed when he heard this.
As long as the father-in-law doesn't kill Liu Jinzhong, it's fine. As for scolding, it's nothing, and it won't lose a piece of meat.
"Hmph, don't say that Tartar is really a hard nut to crack. But sooner or later, we will have to tear off a piece of meat from him. ”
Zhang Kewang answered, but he knew that Zhang Xianzhong was just talking.
Compared with Li Chuanglai, his father-in-law lacks the ambition to set the world, and only thinks about guarding his own one-third of an acre.
If the father-in-law really planned to compete with Li Chuang and Ming Ting for the world, he would not have chosen to enter Sichuan.
Sichuan enjoys the reputation of the land of abundance, rich in products, and completely self-sufficient.
Because the Shu Road is dangerous, it is very difficult for foreign enemies to get in.
But in the same way, limited by the size of the territory, it is also impossible for Shu to supply an army of hundreds of thousands. Thinking about the Shu Han of the Three Kingdoms, didn't Zhuge Liang lead the army to the Northern Expedition several times in vain?
Wars are fought for money and food.
Sichuan alone can't scrape together enough money and food.
Unless the Qing army really wants to attack Sichuan, the father-in-law should not take the initiative to friction with it.
Zhang Kewang reported a few more government affairs to Zhang Xianzhong, and then withdrew from the palace.
Now Zhang Xianzhong has thrown all the government affairs and miscellaneous affairs to Zhang Kewang to manage, and the burden on his shoulders is very heavy.
In comparison, the other three righteous sons Zhang Dingguo, Zhang Wenxiu, and Zhang Nengqi are much easier. They were only responsible for commanding the troops to fight the war, and Zhang Kewang was responsible for logistics and supplies, as well as grain and straw.
Zhang Kewang was walking out, and suddenly saw Zhang Dingguo coming, so he raised his voice and asked, "What, you also came to find your father-in-law?" ”
Zhang Dingguo nodded and said, "I have important military affairs to report." ”
Zhang Kewang reminded: "Father-in-law is not in a very good mood, you should be careful." ”
Zhang Kewang didn't pay much attention to what Zhang Dingguo reported. Among the four brothers, the division of responsibilities is very clear, and Zhang Kewang only needs to be responsible for handling internal affairs.
Zhang Dingguo said with a smile: "Thank you big brother for reminding me." ”
The two staggered shoulder-to-shoulder.
After leaving the palace, Zhang Kewang came to his mansion to deal with government affairs.
Faced with the thick stack of newspapers piled up on the bookcase, he shook his head helplessly.
The Great Western Army is good at everything, but it is too short of people to manage the government.
He once suggested that Zhang Xianzhong open a branch in Sichuan, but he was rejected.
Zhang Xianzhong felt that the imperial examination was useless in troubled times. In troubled times, whoever has a hard knife can win the world.
Zhang Kewang had no choice but to give up after persuasion failed. Now the evil consequences have gradually been revealed, and the generals sent by Zhang Xianzhong to all parts of Sichuan are generals. These people can fight, but Wenzhi doesn't know anything. In the past six months, I have not received much tax money, and it has also provoked a lot of popular uprisings.
The Great Western Army also controlled the area near Chengdu relatively well, and there were often turmoil in Suining and Baoning.
Zhang Kewang was so anxious just to deal with these things that he sometimes had no time to take care of the big plan of reclamation.
However, the matter of reclamation always has to take time out to deal with it, which is a major matter related to the fortunes of the country.
The reclamation policy implemented by the Great Western Army or Zhang Kewang in Sichuan is actually very similar to the military reclamation policy implemented by Zhu Yuanzhang in the early Ming Dynasty.
The so-called military tun means that the land belongs to the army and is cultivated by soldiers.
The advantage of this is that it can ensure the maximum output of land and support an army of tens of thousands.
However, there is also a big problem with this, that is, the rights and interests of ordinary farmers are not guaranteed. Take the vicinity of Chengdu as an example, the land in this area has been classified as ownerless wasteland by Zhang Kewang, and all of them are classified as Juntun.
In fact, a considerable part of this land is owned and belongs to local farmers.
But Zhang Kewang didn't care about this.
In his opinion, the interests of the Onishi Army are the most important.
Relying on the confiscation of the gold and silver of the Shu Palace, the Great Western Army supported it for more than half a year. But there will be a day when all this gold and silver will run out, and you must prepare for a rainy day.
At present, the tax policy of the Great Western Army in Shu is very chaotic, and there are very few taxes received from hand.
Under such circumstances, the military cantonment must be strictly implemented.
Every grain of rice and every grain produced must be put into the government treasury and allocated for use in a unified manner.
The amount of food eaten by each soldier and auxiliary soldier every day is strictly calculated and distributed to ensure food saving to the greatest extent.
The people have nothing to eat? Then you can join the army.
As long as you join the Great Western Army, you can participate in the military cantonment, and you will naturally have food.
As for the families of those people, they will also become military dependents, although the military dependents may not have enough to eat, but they can survive to some extent.
If you don't want to join the Great Western Army, then it is not something that Zhang Kewang can manage.
Life and death are up to you.
Of course, Zhang Kewang also knows very well that this military model can only be used in times of war, and what the people hope for from ancient times to the present is to have a piece of land of their own, and it is very unpopular to kill them.
But right now, even with gritted teeth, he had to do it.
Because if you don't starve to death those people, it will be the soldiers of the Great Western Army who will starve to death.
