King Lu knew what the Ming Emperor was afraid of, and knew that he could write a letter to ask Huang Han to bring troops to Weihui Mansion, but he was very careful and refused to give someone a handle, and the emperor issued a holy decree to send the "Red Banner Army" to come.

Huang Han did not dare to stay away from Houjiazhuang before the harvest, and of course he would not have an opinion on going to defend King Lu, and the "Red Flag Army" continued to crack down on nearby bandits and bandits, and the more than 200 miles from Houjiazhuang to Weihui Mansion were unimpeded.

There are activities in the mountains of the "winged tiger" armed forces controlled by the flag guards, and a large number of rogues are heading in the direction of Houjiazhuang, and Huang Han can get information a few days in advance, and the cavalry can change horses and gallop back to help, and they can arrive from Weihui Mansion City in one day.

The last time Qin Yanyi stayed in the palace with Huang Han for seven days, it was like enjoying a vacation, and seeing that the "Red Flag Army" had been ordered to go to Weihui Mansion to protect King Lu, she happily took the female soldiers to become the vanguard.

When Huang Han came to Weihui Mansion, he was retained by King Lu, and he often invited Huang Han to go to the palace to play chess, listen to music, and drink, which led to Huang Han's Go level skyrocketing.

This time, the "Red Banner Army" was ordered to guard the vassal country to defend King Lu, and the name of the garrison in Weihui Mansion was justifiable.

However, because King Lu refused to let the "Red Flag Army" leave the country, Xuan Mo lacked the most powerful army with the most combat effectiveness available, and several people and horses in front of him were repeatedly deflated.

Shanxi thieves kept coming from Yangcheng and Yuanqu.

More than 400,000 people have gathered in Jiyuan County, including more than 100,000 young and middle-aged people, 70,000 or 80,000 with weapons, half with armor, and more than 10,000 horse thieves.

There were so many rogues that Huang Han thought that leading the "Red Banner Army" to attack could only defeat them, and could not deal a fatal blow.

The result must be that most of the old bandits left the displaced people and fled, and there were too many displaced people who were coerced, leaving them how to solve the big problem of eating? If left unchecked, these homeless people will become outcasts.

The army is far away from Houjiazhuang, and it is also very likely that the heavily defended Zhangde Mansion will have a loophole due to insufficient troops.

Huang Han didn't think that the left-behind men and villagers couldn't hold Houjiazhuang and the "Zhongyi Fort", nor did he worry about a large number of casualties among the tun people who hid in the castle.

Instead, they knew that those rogues who had been beaten like headless flies had no goal at all, and if they invaded the territory of Zhangde Mansion, which was about to harvest in autumn, and wantonly destroyed it, causing the harvest to come to naught, it would starve to death tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people.

Farming is not easy to say, but even if hundreds of thousands of rogues run aimlessly in the fields that are about to be harvested, the losses caused are incalculable.

Therefore, King Lu enthusiastically retained, and Huang Han was so happy that he did not move, preparing to drag the autumn harvest grain into storage, and there was no worries for the time being, and then he gave Liukou a sharp blow to expand the results.

More than a month later, a few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the autumn harvest officially began.

In order to ensure that the people and peasants could return to the warehouse, all the cavalry and infantry began to patrol day and night, including the five new white pole soldiers formed by Zhang Fengyi who had just absorbed more than 1,000 Sichuan army routs.

The patrol of the "Red Banner Army" has a small characteristic, and that is because 11 military dog soldiers led two hunting dogs that had been trained for more than a month to participate in the operation, and the effect was very good.

Thieves who come out to steal things will always be discovered by military dogs, and the final outcome is, of course, to be sentenced to enter the brick kiln for labor reform.

There are 20,000 peasants and tun residents directly sheltered by the "Red Banner Army," with a population of more than 150,000, and the number of peasants and villagers who have cultivated land has reached 1 million mu, and this year's yield per mu of potatoes has reached a medium level, which is close to 700 jin per mu based on the market jin of nearly 600 grams in the Ming Dynasty.

The potato sowing area is 400,000 mu, which means that the output is enough to feed 500,000 people, plus the harvest of 500,000 mu of wheat and 100,000 mu of sweet potato, half of Huang Han's income is enough to mobilize more than 300,000 people to dredge the river.

The migrant workers who are supplied to the river do not need to carry out deep processing, but directly boil potatoes and sweet potatoes, and when they are thirsty, they can drink sweet potato tea casually, and they can choose to receive silver, copper coins, potatoes and sweet potatoes when settling labor remuneration.

Mobilizing a large number of ordinary people to carry hundreds or thousands of miles of rivers for grain and silver, the political impact brought by the "Red Banner Army" is not trivial.

Huang Han did not throw the emperor aside, and he had no intention of selling his reputation and reputation, such a project to benefit the people is a major national event, of course, the emperor has to make a decree.

The autumn harvest was still underway, and when it was estimated that there was much food at his disposal, Huang Han, who was in order to rush for time, went to the imperial court and asked His Majesty to mobilize the common people to pick up the river.

The "Red Banner Army" will take the lead in launching a huge project to dredge the Zhanghe, Weihe, and Nanhe Canals with the surplus grain from the local tuntian, which will last for nearly three months, and the exact time will depend on the change in temperature.

Huang Han described the current situation of the devastation and hunger people in the border areas where the Liukou crossed the border, pointed out that the common people are very likely to be hungry and think about change, and explained the great benefits of using cash-for-work to increase the amount of food available to the common people.

He emphasized that the cultivation of potatoes and sweet potatoes with the strong support of the elder Xu Guangqi had a miraculous effect, and a lot of grain was harvested, but the grain could not be given to anyone in vain, and a large project was launched to provide the hungry people with the opportunity to exchange labor for food, and the court and the people both benefited.

Huang Han is planning to work for relief, and he is ready to give this political achievement to the emperor, which is indeed a wonderful thing, because during this period of time, the Ming Dynasty was treacherous, and many spearheads pointed at the Marquis of Dongping.

Forced by the power of the Marquis of Dongping and the force of the "Red Banner Army", the landlords and landlords who had to bow their heads and take the silver to sign a ten-year land lease agreement did not necessarily swallow their anger, and too many landlords with a background retaliated against.

In just four months, the impeachment of the Marquis of Dongping, who took away people's land and property, and even infringed on the interests of the vassal kings and county kings, was piled up one foot high.

That's how the lack of people's hearts is! Many landlords saw that the crops in the area of Houjiazhuang were growing gratifyingly, and they could predict that the harvest would not be bad, and now the price of grain remains high, and these harvests mean twice or even more snowflakes and silver than in previous years.

In July and early August, the impeachment of the Marquis of Dongping reached its peak, and the landlords, who thought they had suffered a great loss, were anxious.

The emperor did not listen to the one-sided words, and sent Dongchang and Jinyi Wei to investigate, and found that the Marquis of Dongping did use his power to encroach on other people's ancestral fields.

However, there was a reason, most of those acres were abandoned because of the scourge of the rogues, and the Marquis of Dongping organized the displaced people in time to take no matter whose fields were planted with crops first, so as to ensure that there would be a harvest this year.

Such a way is to be discussed, the land belonging to others without the permission of the owner, Dongping Marquis sent people to cultivate without authorization, if everyone is like this, wouldn't there be no royal law?
