Early the next morning, Wang Yongji, who thought that he had escaped death, set off to run errands and behaved very actively.

Soon, King Lu and Dongping Hou got along happily, and often listened to music and played chess together, and were known to too many dignitaries, and everyone also knew that Dongping Hou had given the tax that King Lu had received, and the specific amount of silver a year was also well-founded.

Back in Houjiazhuang, Huang Han immediately gave Chongzhen a note, attached a copy of the agreement with King Lu, praised King Lu for not competing with the people for the land and land rent, and asked the Son of Heaven to issue an edict calling on all princes to follow suit.

Next, there is a legal basis for dealing with the acres of land that are entangled with the prince, and the prince who agrees with this will be able to get this year's income immediately, and every year in the future, even if there are natural and man-made disasters, Huang Han will ensure that he pays on time.

Several princes settled the accounts and felt that they should not suffer too much, so they naturally admitted that such an income would fade their minds to deal with Dongping Hou.

Huang Han and the prince were able to negotiate the conditions, how dare those landlords who were waiting to jump out and make things difficult.

In the last 500,000 acres of land with landlords, a ten-year land rent contract was signed, and according to the upper, middle and lower grades, the land rent was paid according to eight yuan, six yuan and five cents, and five yuan of silver per mu, which was basically a harvest of one mu of land in a medium year.

The land endowment and land rent are all paid by the "Red Banner Army" in a unified manner, and they are also deducted from half of the harvest obtained by the "Red Banner Army".

Negotiated the conditions with the prince and the landlord, and planted nearly one million acres of land, including taxes and land rent, Huang Han needed to spend nearly 100,000 taels of silver every year.

Daming Tianfu is actually not high, and what forced the common people to a dead end was the exorbitant taxes and land rent.

Huang Han enclosed land to cultivate, paid the national tax on imperial grain, respected the right to land ownership and agreed to pay land rent, and did his best to do his right, if he could not let the tun households and farmers under his management produce with peace of mind, the next thing was to use a knife to kill people.

The "Red Flag Army" is repairing, and the bones of thieves such as King Gao Chuang, General Li Chuang, Eight Kings, Cao Cao, Xing Hongniang, Chuang Collapse and Lao Huihui have not stopped for a day.

However, the news that the Marquis of Dongping had killed Wang Zijin Liang and Wang Jiayin's brother Wang Jiayun spread all over Shanxi, Henan.

The rogues gave the "Red Flag Army" led by Huang Han an ugly name "Red Devil", implying that the "Red Flag Army" was a group of devils who wore red military uniforms and killed people without blinking.

Many rogues who entered Taihang Mountain heard that the "Red Banner Army" was stationed in Houjiazhuang, and no one dared to provoke them.

The rogues did not dare to plunder to the east, so they went south one after another, and fought with Deng Xi's Sichuan army in Lin County, and the thousands of men and horses under Deng Xi's command who had no fighting spirit were scattered.

Huang Han didn't know if Deng Xi had only the Jiading team left in his hands, but he could judge that the losses of the Sichuan army were not small, and it was possible that because many Sichuan babies knew that Houjiazhuang had hundreds of white pole soldiers who were also Sichuan troops, some of the scattered men and horses came here.

In the middle of this situation, Huang Han, Zhang Fengyi, Qin Yanyi, and Zhao Kun each personally led a general infantry to move to the Taihang Mountain and the Great Plains to collect the Sichuan army.

Minus the general cavalry who sent the displaced people to Tianjinwei, and more than 1,000 cavalry, of course, will not go up the mountain, but respond nearby.

Huang Han came to a place called Lao Ye Mountain to guard a mountain road and wait for the rabbit, and the people and horses from the west had to pass through here to be able to go down to the plain, otherwise they would need to go around dozens of miles of mountain roads to the north or south.

Hundreds of thousands of homeless people passed in three days, and the young men of the "Red Banner Army" gave them two miscellaneous grain cakes without exception to guide them to Houjiazhuang.

On the fourth day, a short man ran wildly in front of him with a big hound, followed by seven or eight soldiers with spears and knives.

"Brother, don't run, we are not rogues, we are officers and soldiers, as long as you are willing to leave that dog behind, we will not embarrass you!"

"Brother, are you stupid, that dog's leg is broken, how can he survive? You can't bear to do it, our brother did it for you, so that the dog won't suffer any more, and I'll give you a few pieces of meat when the time comes. ”

The person running in front of him ignored it at all, and ran wildly on the mountain road as if he were walking on the ground, although he was holding a big dog weighing dozens of pounds, the people behind him could not catch up.

This man only cared about running east, but he didn't expect that there were ambushes here, and the "Red Flag Army" would not kill people indiscriminately, at this time, Gu Kui shouted loudly and stood with more than 20 people.

"The 'Red Banner Army' is here, everyone must throw away their weapons and be interrogated, and officers and soldiers are no exception!"

The running man stopped, and found that there were dozens of people and horses in the way, and he didn't resist or raise his hands, he opened his mouth to speak, and almost made Gu Kui laugh.

"Can the military master give me something to eat, the small one can stand it, and the villain's 'winged tiger' has nothing to eat, I'm afraid it will be gone."

Gu Kui asked, "The big dog you are holding in your arms is called a 'winged tiger'?" ”

"Yes, it was desperately broken in order to save the little one and the rogue, and this morning the little one carried it down the mountain to find a man to save his life, but it was unfortunately seen by a few soldiers, and those soldiers wanted to eat my 'winged tiger'."

Of course, a few guards around Huang Han knew about the "winged tiger", and when they saw a big dog also called this name, you couldn't help but laugh when you visited me.

The strong man was still holding the dog and staring at the group of soldiers with vigilant eyes, and when he saw them burst out laughing, he thought that he was going to suffer, and said fiercely: "Don't come here, if anyone dares to move the 'winged tiger', the little one will definitely fight with him." ”

Huang Han saw that this man was interesting, and instructed the medical soldiers accompanying the army: "You run over to see if the dog is saved, if it is a broken leg, you can also use the method of giving people bones." ”

He said to Gu Jixiang again: "Open a canned pork for that man, in case the dog dies, let it eat a full stomach, so that the man will not have any regrets." ”

Gu Jixiang acted quickly, and it didn't take long for him to come to the man with a ceramic jar containing pork and say, "You are lucky to have met a good person with a bodhisattva's heart." ”

As he spoke, he used a small copper spoon to dig up a piece of canned meat made of pork, starch, salt, and spices and sent it to the big dog's mouth, but the dog looked at it but didn't eat it.

The man said: "Little brother, unless it is a living creature, the things thrown by strangers will not be eaten, let me come!" ”
