Chapter 1448: Under the Emperor, All Ants
Donglai County, Shandong Province, Penglai Palace.
Feng Lishi presents the recital of Sun Wuji, the head of Baekje Province.
"Sage, Baekje-do has begun in full swing."
Shan Xiongxin had already sent troops to escort the first batch of Baekje royal family and aristocratic officials to the Central Plains, and the sea ships were full of 100,000 people to the west.
If these 100,000 people were to encounter a storm on the Yellow Sea, the original upper ruling class of Baekje would have been wiped out. However, this kind of thing cannot happen, so many ships are capsized, and the imperial court has suffered a lot of losses. Besides, those Baekje elites did not come to the Central Plains to enjoy their blessings.
In fact, the port of Qingdao is now home to countless slave traders, all eagerly awaiting the entry of these ships.
After those people arrive in Qingdao, there will be some young and beautiful daughters of the royal family and nobles, who will be sent to the emperor's palace, and eventually, the emperor will keep a few, and then give the rest to the vassal kings, princes, and ministers.
Others don't have such good luck.
They can only be reduced to slavery.
Attractive young women may be sold as concubines to scholars or merchants, while those who can speak Chinese and write Chinese characters may be sold as servants and the like, but the rest may only become grooms, coachmen, or manor slaves, mine slaves, etc.
Whether these people were once descendants of the royal family or children of nobles, they are now only left with one identity, slaves.
In the eyes of those slave traders, they were just goods, equivalent to a sum of money.
It is difficult to return to the homeland, and everything in their hometown, status, reputation, wealth, and everything has nothing to do with them.
The winner is the king and the loser is the loser, and the one who dies can only be reduced to slavery.
The emperor's expression was calm.
The emperor is ruthless.
In the eyes of the emperor, hundreds of millions of living beings in the world are his people, and there are too many people. And the people of the enemy country are not even the people, they are just poor ants in the eyes of the emperor.
"It's going well, isn't it?"
"The eldest grandson said in the chapter that the five counties have been fully implemented, and now the counties and townships are mobilizing the poor people to fight the local tyrants and landlords to collect the land, which is very smooth."
Pull a batch of buckets, this trick really works very well.
For the imperial court, the enemies of Baekje's rule were not all the common people, but only a small part of Baekje.
As long as they are distinguished, then there will be fewer enemies.
"The vast majority of Baekje people did not have a good life in the past, and most of them did not even have a place to stand on a cone, nor did they have an inch of their own land. So as long as we give them some benefits so that they can live better than before, then they will naturally support us. ”
In the face of food and clothing, these people at the bottom have no family, country and race, and they can't understand this, they only have what is in front of them, and there is no poetry and distance.
Whoever is the emperor is the same.
The eldest grandson Wuji exempted them from debts and paid them land rent, although they were still tenants, but the rent was much lower than before, and after there were no other burdens, these Baekje people were able to live better than before, and even had food and clothing.
The imperial court skillfully took the land of the original Baekje landlords and re-leased it to the people of Baekje by fighting the local tyrants and landlords, but the rent was reduced.
This means that the people at the bottom of Baekje have been separated from the middle and upper class landlords in Baekje.
They became a pair of mortal enemies.
The new benefits of the people at the bottom of Baekje all come from the powerful landlords, and it is impossible for them to go with these landlords and powerful again, and coming together means that their new benefits will be gone.
The number of landlords is small, although they are rich and powerful, but now that the Baekje court has been ended, they can only use the people below, but the people are cut off from them, which means that they no longer have the strength to turn over.
Luo Cheng looked up.
"How's the immigration preparations?"
"So far, more than 100,000 people have moved to their hometowns in Baekje, mainly from Shandong, Huainan and Hebei, but now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, immigration has been suspended. After the year, a second group of immigrants will be organized, and the second group will also have about 100,000 people. As long as everything goes well, 100,000 people can be moved over every month, and by the end of next year, at least 1 million people will be moved. ”
"Did Baekje receive it, and can it be properly accommodated?" Luo Cheng asked again.
"The eldest grandson Wuji and Shan Xiongxin have a good partner, there is no contradiction, now the military government over there has been deployed, and the first batch of 100,000 immigrants are almost all placed in the five county towns and the county towns below. The next group of immigrants will be resettled on the county transportation line. ”
"What about the house? What about the fields, are they all ready? Is the ministry all the officials complete? In addition, after the immigrants passed, could each tunzhuang immediately establish a primary school, could it be equipped with a full range of teachers, and could it guarantee free education for three years of junior high school? ”
"I believe in the ability of the eldest grandson Wuji, and so far, everything is still going well. Moreover, Anton's Xu Shiji, who has begun to bear fruit in Andong in recent years, has now begun to help Baekje. ”
Luo Cheng said to him, "My teacher has already given me the seal of the beggar bones again, saying that he is old and has many injuries and illnesses, and he no longer has the energy to preside over the Privy Council." I originally wanted to stay, but according to the prince, during this time, the teacher was bedridden and couldn't get out. ”
The emperor sighed a little, Zhang Xutuo is also a fierce general in the world, when he was in Henan, he was simply the captain of the fire, extinguished countless peasant armies, once five thousand and twenty thousand, hundreds of more than 100,000, etc., but at the same time created an invincible myth, he was also injured countless times after all, and now he is old.
"I am ready to let Song Shuai take over as the privy envoy, and then transfer Xu Shiji from Anton to the central government as the privy deputy envoy!"
Song Laosheng's ability to fight may not be very strong, but he has always been Luo Cheng's deputy marshal before, he is old, and he is also the founding father, and now that Zhang Xutuo has left the Privy Council, Luo Cheng will let him take over.
The other two deputy envoys of the Privy Council, Zhou Dewei and Cheng Yanjin, are both talented generals, but they are not famous commanders. In fact, the most suitable person to take over as a privy envoy should be Li Jing, or Luo Yi, but Li Jing is still in Lingnan, although the situation in Lingnan is stable, but the slang bureaucrats have not really returned to obedience, and the imperial court is still brewing a wave of land reform and return, which is inseparable from a general like Li Jing.
"Then who will take over Anton?"
"How is Wang Junkuo? This guy is still quite capable. ”
"The minister resolutely opposes the use of Wang Junkuo to take charge of Andong Dao, and the saint must not forget that this person has rebelled before." Feng Lishi objected loudly.
"What about Chai Shao, he also has some skills."
"It's not proper, Chai Shao was originally Li Yuan's person, although he has made meritorious contributions now, but the time has not been long, and people's hearts are unpredictable."
Luo Cheng nodded, and thought about other candidates.
"It's better to transfer the entire Andong Dao Left Governor, transfer Duan Zhixuan to the right Governor, and then transfer Zhai Rang to the Left Bu political envoy, transfer Yu Scribe and Ren Right Bu Political Envoy, transfer Donglai Taishou Niu Fangyu to Anton Left Inspector, Honglu Temple Shaoqing Zhao Dekai as Anton Right Inspector. Hou Junji was appointed as the Taishou of Lelang County, and Yang Shidao was appointed as the Taishou of Daifang County. ”
Feng Lishi noticed that Xu Shiji was originally in Anton, and he was appointed as the governor of Zuodu and the Taishou of Lelang, and was given the title of Xuanfu envoy. But now, he has only been appointed as the commander of the Zuo Du, and he has not added the title of Xuanfu envoy, nor has he also served as the Taishou of Lelang County.
This means that Andong Dao will return to the decentralization pattern of the three divisions and yamen, each performing its own duties, and no one will add envoys such as Xuanfu envoys or economic envoys to override the other three envoys, and will no longer concurrently serve as Taishou and increase their power.
This change also seems to mean that the emperor believes that the current Andong Dao has officially entered the normal state, and there is no need for additional authorization.
"The minister immediately summoned the scholars to come and draft the edict!" Feng Lishi said.
The Emperor just nodded, and looked back at the case in front of him.
