Chapter 524: Shunmin and Diao Min

The regimental training soldiers did not show much excitement because of this......

"You don't believe me?"

Yang Xin said.

"Hou Ye, the little ones all know that Hou Ye is the master of the blue sky, who is really the master of the people, the last time Hou Ye was relieved of the disaster, the small ones all watched, if it wasn't for the Hou Ye forcing those big households not to raise the price, they could triple the price of rice in that famine, and the small ones could still have enough food at home all up to Hou Ye.

But Hou Ye is not the Son of Heaven!

The Hou Ye also has to listen to the court, and the court naturally listens to those big families.

Even if the Hou Ye wants to divide the field, what can the court not allow the Hou Ye to do, the last time he copied those families, didn't he keep hanging? Moreover, in the past two years, many of those lands have been seized by other big households, and the yamen does not care, even the father-in-law in Suzhou.

Even if Hou Ye really wants to be good for the people, Hou Ye can't openly disobey the court, right? If a holy decree summons Hou Ye back, do you still expect others to continue to divide the land like Hou Ye? If the Hou Ye has the right to call the shots, of course the small ones listen to the Hou Ye, which tenant doesn't want to divide the land? But this world belongs to the Zhu family after all, and the Hou Ye has to listen to today's son after all. ”

The weaver said cautiously.

The rest of the soldiers also chimed in, and it was clear that they were not stupid.

Yang Xin is not an emperor.

He said that the field will be divided? When the time comes, there will be no more, a holy decree will be solved, the emperor will call him back, and then let someone else lead the troops, so can he still resist the decree and disrespect?

If someone else led the army, who would be like him?

In the final analysis, the surname of this world is Zhu instead of Yang, and this kind of thing is too big, and it is not for him to call the shots at all, the emperor only counts when he says it, and the emperor must be with those gentry.

Zhaoyi City is the common people themselves rebelled, and the official army can not stop it, although the legend is that Yang Xin is Yang Feng, but Yang Xin did not openly join in the later period, it was the group training of those gentry who could not beat others, and even Shen Tingyang was almost captured alive in Jiangyin, or relied on Yang Xin to mediate the final truce between the two sides, including in Yixing.

The gentry really can't beat it.

Only then was forced to admit the reality, if the gentry could fight and directly counterattack to recapture Wujin, then Yang Xin could really go to the battlefield?

But now it's different.

Xu Du has already taken half of Zhejiang, and those gentry have already told the emperor that they will break up in two if they are in a hurry, so it is impossible for the emperor to continue to condone Yang Xin.

Divide the entire north of the Qiantang River?

Did the emperor want to force all the gentry in the world to rebel? It's impossible to think about.

"I don't need you to believe it now, you will."

Yang Xin said.

This result also surprised him.

However, this is also normal, most of these regimental exercises are close to the clans of those big families, the same is true for tenants, and domestic slaves are also contributed, to put it bluntly, they themselves are the basis for the gentry to control the place.

Tenants are not the same as tenants, the landlord will rent the best land to his close tribesmen, and even provide relief to them in case of famine, while those in the distant branches will get a mix of good and bad, but still guaranteed to eat. The bottom of the real tenants is those with different surnames, and this kind of clan-based pyramid structure is the Jiangnan countryside, so Zhu Yuanzhang likes to escort the whole clan away at once, because he knows that this is the most effective solution.

At this time, the family could fight against the imperial court with an order from the local government, but no one cared about Zhu Yuanzhang when he wanted to resist.

But Zhu Yuanzhang is the emperor.

He is the emperor, he has the right to kill whoever he wants, he can do whatever he wants, his twelve crowns are enough to make the people listen to him, but Yang Xin is just a minister.

What about his love for the people?

At best, it's just an enhanced version of Hai Jui.

Hai Rui hasn't been able to change anything, his enhanced version has changed a little, but Da Ming can't really change it by relying on the enhanced version of Hai Rui, so for these people who are not really to the point of not being able to eat, they would rather wait and sit and watch. When you can fight, you can fight, if you can't fight, you surrender, you won't die if you surrender anyway, and those gentry won't deal with their families because of this, and it's not that they haven't fought for the gentry.

"Master Hou, what are you talking about with these cheap bones, they are used to living a good life in Jiangnan, and they will be sober when they go back and live in northern Shaanxi for a few years."

Li Jin said.

They don't have that problem.

One is that they believe in Yang Xin, the role of those instructors is still obvious, and these instructors from Yang's family are almost all fanatical followers of Yang Dudu, and their almost religious propaganda coupled with personal experience is enough to make these soldiers from northern Shaanxi believe in Yang Xin.

The second is from northern Shaanxi.

They have experienced too much hunger and cold since they were children, and the desire and happiness of people in a piece of land with a few buckets per mu and a few stones are different, the latter will not eat Guanyin soil no matter how bitter it is, and the former will have to eat Guanyin soil if it is a little famine. These soldiers from northern Shaanxi, their desire for happiness makes them not let go of any opportunity, whether Yang Xin has the ability to do it or not, they are willing to follow and fight, they have no room to wait.

What if Yang Xin can't cash it out?

With this strong army now, you can go back to northern Shaanxi and do it yourself.

It's a big deal to learn from the Red Turban Army.

Go back first and make trouble by yourself, and then with the help of Yang Xin, force the imperial court to admit the reality, there are hundreds of thousands of young people in northern Shaanxi who can join, and the current imperial army in the northwest is not enough for this army to clean up by itself.

These soldiers knew it.

Yang Xin will definitely be blocked by the imperial court and even the emperor by doing this, as long as he doesn't want to rebel openly, it will be difficult for him to continue, but he doesn't want to rebel openly, these soldiers will replace him.

The Red Turbans have set a good example.

Since the Red Turban Army was able to rely on the first group of peasants, who did not even have many muskets, and used their spears to scare the surrounding gentry into powerless resistance, why couldn't they, the elite soldiers? If the Red Turban Army was really set up in northern Shaanxi, and then threatened Xi'an or Taiyuan, what else could the imperial court do? What else could the emperor do? Either they agreed that Yang Dudu would preside over the division of land for them, or they would continue to involve more places and let the entire northwest be in flames, and eventually more places would raise the banner of the Red Turban Army.

They had already figured out what to do.

They weren't prepared to count on Yang Xin.

You are a strong army, why do you have to count on others? A good life never falls from the sky, and if you don't strive for your own good life, you want to rely on others to reward you? Don't even dare to pick up a knife or gun and still want to divide the field? It is said that these Northwest men are not so docile and need to use knives and guns to realize their ideals, they will not mind killing people and setting fires.

"How's your injury?"

Yang Xin said.

"Back to Master Hou, a hole was pulled under the ribs, and it was already wrapped, but he was hit with a hammer on his back, and he almost broke the bones, but the small body was strong and resistant."

Li Jin hurriedly said.

His hammer smashed in the back of the heart, the force of the impact shocked the internal organs, at the beginning it was indeed almost wasted, but after relieving himself, he was able to walk on crutches by himself, in the end, he was strong, he was originally a fierce general's physique, after being a soldier, he exercised every day when he was full, and now he has a muscle, and the ability to resist blows is still enough.

"Recuperate with peace of mind, continue to take your soldiers with you after you recover, but give you a promotion to make up for it!"

Yang Xin said.

Li Jin hurriedly saluted and thanked him.

"Master Hou, the little one has an uncle who is a post officer, and he has killed and injured some brothers this time, so he must recruit a group of new soldiers, and the little one wants him to be a soldier too."

He said.

This time, more than 200 Dangkou troops were killed.

In fact, in the battle of the phalanx era, there were generally not many casualties, and the Battle of Lüzen, which can be called a major battle at the level of the general decisive battle in the European theater, invested 50,000 troops on both sides, and the total number of battle deaths in the end was only more than one-tenth of the total. And the vast majority of deaths were actually in the cavalry pursuit after the rout of the formation, but this time the Dangkou army was the victorious side, and this problem did not exist at all. There were also 300 wounded, 100 of whom had completely lost the possibility of continuing the battle, and according to the rules of the Yang Dudu, they and their families were to go to Xincheng as the Yang family's households.

All of them.

Therefore, the family members who were injured or killed in the battle with Yang Dudu were all taken over, which is also the main source of population growth there over the years, and it is also the main cultivator of the 400,000 mu of land that the Yang family has reclaimed.

The same is the main worker in those factories.

This time, the total loss was 300 people.

These are definitely recruiting new soldiers, and recruiting new recruits must also be from northern Shaanxi, in fact, not only Li Jin, many officers have begun to want to get their relatives from their hometowns, after all, they really have a bright future in the Dangkou army.

"Your uncle, are you old?"

Yang Xin said.

"Back to Master Hou, he is actually a few years younger than the younger one."

Li Jin said.

"Then let him come, there is no future as a post soldier in the current situation in northern Shaanxi, and after coming over, I will be a personal soldier for you in the face of you!"

Yang Xin said.

"Xie Hou Ye cultivates!"

Li Jin said excitedly.

At this time, Luo Rucai had already sent the first disaster report in northern Shaanxi, and the heavy snow had caused serious losses to all counties in Yan'an Prefecture, but it had not yet reached the level of a large number of starving people, mainly because of the large number of sweet potatoes planted in the local area in recent years. After all, this is summer, even if it snows suddenly, the ground is warm, and those underground sweet potatoes will not be affected, but they will only freeze some leaves, and the weather will grow better immediately after the snow is watered. Even some of those who were cut out of production began to cut seedlings from these sweet potatoes to replant, and in June they suffered a snowstorm, and then after planting seedlings, they could harvest almost a crop of sweet potatoes in October.

I'm sure I'll plant more next year.

After all, this one has been tested by famine.

As for the families of those soldiers, they have already begun to distribute money and food, and none of them will starve to death, and now the whole of northern Shaanxi is full of voices singing praises to the Hou of Hejian.

"Work hard, and have a good future for you in the future!"

Yang Xin patted him on the shoulder and said.
