Chapter 213: Separation of Soldiers and Peasants
When the sun dawned a little, Ma Liang immediately summoned 200 security chiefs and officially announced the "Juntian Order".
As soon as the order to convene was issued, the chiefs quickly assembled in place, and for a while, before the main tent, there was a crowd of people, and it was very lively.
But seeing Ma Liang holding the "Juntian Edict" that Liu Bei had just given him, he said loudly:
"The King of Hanzhong is grateful for everyone's trust in him, and he is ready to give the big guy a Juntian order in Hanzhong!"
As soon as he said this, people were shocked or suspicious, and immediately boiled.
"What is Junta?"
"Is it to grant the land or to rent the land?"
"My family has fifty acres of land in Nanjun, so you won't even give me this amount, right?"
"If it's better to be in my hometown, it's not easy for me, the chief of security, to explain to the villagers!"
Facing the doubts on the court, Ma Liang made a downward posture with both hands.
He stayed with the people and accompanied him all the way, and he had already established a high prestige.
After only a few moments, the noise in the field suddenly stopped. The chief guards all kept silent, only looked at the front of the stage with a pair of eyes, and waited for the following.
Ma Liang shook the silk cloth in his hand and said with a smile:
"Whether it is to grant the land or rent the land, the villagers will know the details when they listen to the last two sentences of conscience."
He unfolded the silk cloth and recited aloud the words that he had read several times.
Thanks to the fact that this "Juntian Order" was drafted very easily and easily understood, and there was no difficult meaning between the lines, the chief of the security department listened with their ears up, and they could generally understand it.
It is nothing more than that the imperial court wants to grant land to everyone, but the granted field is divided into two kinds: Yongye Tian and Kou Tian, Yongye Tian can be passed on, and Kou Fentian must be returned to the government after his death.
Everyone said that although not all of them are private land, both men and women have the right to divide the land, so together, each family must have a lot of private land.
Although the land must be returned after death, if the family imports it, the government will still grant it to Xintian when he becomes an adult.
In general, these fields are still in their own hands, and in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, they will have more babies.
However, this kind of field system is new, and the chiefs are still a little unfamiliar, and when Ma Liangnian finishes, they begin to talk to each other and whisper.
Seeing this, Ma Liang said loudly: "If the villagers have any questions, you can ask them, and they should be answered for the big guys." ”
But when he saw a middle-aged man, he suddenly stood up and asked:
"Mr. Ma, what is the difference between Yongye Tian and Fenkou Tian, except that one does not need to be returned, and the other needs to be returned?"
Ma Liang raised the "Juntian Order" and replied:
The text makes it clear that the fields to be returned to the government must not be planted with mulberry elm jujube fruits, so as not to affect the government's re-granting, and the planters will be judged as violating the order. There's nothing else to taboo, you see? ”
"Master Shema, the villain understands!" The man showed a look of sudden realization and thanked his seat.
There is the first person who begins, and the second and third people come unhindered and come in a steady stream.
Then another man who looked like a farmer stood up and asked:
"My brothers are all good at farming, and the court has a lot of land, but if it is not enough to plant, then what?"
Ma Liang smiled and replied:
"You asked this question very well, Tian, the more the merrier, who doesn't want more?"
"In fact, each household gets a share of Yongye land, and the government is not forbidden to buy and sell. If you don't have enough land at home, spend money to buy it. ”
"If you don't have money, you can also go to the military county to serve in the military, and the court will grant you land according to the duration of your service and the merits you have made during your service."
The crop man was surprised:
"It's natural to serve the government, I don't want to be able to divide the land again, the king of Hanzhong is really kind!"
His words aroused him for a while, and the guards couldn't help nodding their heads, and they all responded:
"The court really treats me well."
"Just do things well, it's not a delusion to save a hundred acres of land for Xiaohuzi!"
Just when everyone was thinking, a tall figure stood up in the middle of the field, and said in an urn voice:
"Ask Master Ma, my old Hu and Junhou have practiced the ability to kill the enemy, and they only have the strength to hold a gun in one arm, but they can't hold a hoe. When I was at home, I had my own tenants to help with the plowing and harvesting, but what should I do now? ”
Ma Liang recognized him as Hu Qujiang, who was the first to respond to Guan Yu.
Because of his prestige, this person was promoted to the chief of security; Even among the two hundred security chiefs, this person is also at the top.
Ma Liang also knew that there were many people in the field who were in a similar situation to him.
They were all middle-level generals in Guan Yu's army back then, good at fighting, accumulating merits, and rewarding, and they were considered small landlords.
These people do not need to work at home, as long as they practice martial arts every day, and their families and tenants take care of everything.
But at this time, when they arrived in Shuzhong, it was naturally impossible for the tenants to follow, so the above doubts arose.
Ma Liang knew that these people were all leaders in the army, and they were talents that the king of Hanzhong needed very much, and it was extremely important for the imperial court to solve the worries of these people.
He remembered the opportunity of Zhuge Liang's face-to-face teaching, so he replied:
"Hu Qu will only be relieved, if you have no time to take care of farming, you can rent the land to the villagers to cultivate, and collect some rent; It can also be handed over to the government for disposal, and the government will organize the young and strong people in the same village to form a commune, work in a unified manner, and share the income proportionally. ”
"In this way, you just have to work in the army with peace of mind, and the greater your merit, the more land you will get. Although the average harvest per mu is not as good as others, if your field is twice or three times that of other people's fields, the harvest will be considerable! ”
The truth of planting more and reaping more is probably still understood by everyone.
Hu Qu will clench his fists and say: "This is very good, the court has thought so carefully for us, my old Hu will sell his life to the king of Hanzhong!" ”
His words obviously won the hearts of the people, but most of the chief security guards followed suit.
"Good! Brother Hu said it well! ”
"With this ability, I'm afraid that I won't be able to earn a family business?"
"I have to let this group of recruits in Yizhou see how powerful our Jingzhou athletes are!"
*******
While Ma Liang was answering questions and solving problems for the chief of the guards, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang sat in the tent and listened to the movements outside one by one.
Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan lightly and said slowly:
"Soldiers are not expensive. On the surface, this policy can make the people return to their hearts, but in fact, it can also use the government to deploy pairs to improve the efficiency of farmers' farming, and then promote those who are good at fighting to leave agricultural production and work in the army all year round. From then on, soldiers are soldiers, farmers are farmers, soldiers and farmers are separated, and people make the best use of them. The lord can also collect 20,000 conscripts and 10,000 elite soldiers in one fell swoop. ”
After a pause, he said: "Moreover, the root of these soldiers joining the army is to obtain more Yongye Field, and there is no need for the imperial court to spend more money and reward, and it is really a strategy to kill two birds with one stone." ”
Liu Bei sighed: "I knew that Bo Yue had political talents, so he should have let him govern one side." Now that he has been transferred to Adou's side to serve, I'm afraid that he will be condescending. ”
Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "He is a shrewd person, and he should be able to understand the cultivation of the lord." ”
Liu Bei slowly bowed his head.
The two talked and talked, and gradually talked about the main general who would manage the 10,000 elite soldiers in front of them.
After all, these people are going to settle in Hanzhong, and the imperial court cannot directly govern it, so it is necessary to find a person who is heartfelt and reliable, and has a good leadership to manage it on his behalf.
Zhuge Liang said: "The minister recommended Guan Ping, the lieutenant general of the army, who has experienced a hundred battles and is known for his prestige; And he is the son of Yun Chang, who is the true inheritance of his father, and can make the soldiers serve his life. Liao Hua, Wang Fu, Zhao Lei and other old generals of Yun Chang can also be classified under his command as a foil. ”
Liu Bei thought about it, Guan Ping was indeed the best choice, Liao Hua, Wang Fu, Zhao Lei and others would definitely do their best to assist Guan Yu for Guan Yu's sake, so they nodded and praised.
Zhuge Liang said again:
"The current Yulin Zhonglang has thought about Mi Wei behind closed doors, and has repeatedly resigned from his old position, unwilling to go out to see things. But Yu Linwei has returned to Shuzhong with the people of Jingzhou. The army cannot be left without a master for a day, and the lord is asked to make a clear decision. ”
When Liu Bei heard this, he suddenly asked:
"After going back to visit Zizhong (Mi Zhuzi), his condition improved greatly; Lone also said that Mi Fang's matter has nothing to do with others, so he should not take it to heart, but he doesn't know why Mi Wei is still acting like this? ”
Zhuge Liang replied:
"Mi Wei once wrote to the imperial court, bluntly said that he was shallow in his studies, and it was difficult to take on a big responsibility, and he asked for another meritocracy, and his attitude was extremely resolute."
Liu Bei shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's not because of my lack of confidence, I'm afraid I won't be able to suppress these subordinates who have returned from a hundred battles." He is self-aware. ”
After a moment's thought, he said:
"Before the war, An Guo (Guan Xingzi) fought side by side with Yu Lin Lang, repeatedly beheaded the enemy generals, and made outstanding achievements, and he was also quite familiar with cavalry tactics, so he led the post of Yu Lin Zhonglang general. As for Mi Wei, wait for Gu to help him find an idle errand, that's it. ”
Zhuge Liang silently wrote it down.
At this time, Liu Bei suddenly said again:
"Ma Liang Ma Jichang's character and talent are all the best choices, and this time he has made great contributions. Lonely is willing to let him do the big Sima Mansion Cao Peng, what about Kong Mingyi? ”
When Zhuge Liang heard this, he was taken aback.
Peng is the highest-ranking subordinate member in the Great Sima Mansion, and he is divided into two Cao Peng, east and west, in charge of the personnel of the imperial court, and can be in charge of the appointment and dismissal of officials of 2,000 stones, which can be described as a high authority.
According to past experience, the appointment and dismissal of such positions were basically arbitrarily decided by Wang Qiangang of Hanzhong, and Zhuge Liang could not ignore him.
For some reason, today I suddenly asked for his opinion.
Liu Bei saw his reaction in his eyes and chuckled:
"The lonely age is high, the energy is low, and many things are beyond my strength, so I need Kong Ming to pick up the missing and fill the gaps, don't worry too much."
Zhuge Liang bowed slightly to show respect.
Since the king of Hanzhong asked, he calmly replied:
"I think so. Ma Liang is loyal and sincere, kind to others, and the choice of governing talents is also a momentary choice, which can be called a capable minister. With him in charge of the affairs of the Great Sima Mansion, the ministers can rest assured that they can go to Hanzhong and implement strategic strategies. ”
After a pause, he smiled again:
"Moreover, if Ji Chang is appointed as the great Sima Cao Peng and persuades Liu Zichu (Liu Ba) to go out of the mountain, it will be his duty, and he will not be able to delay it any longer."
******
While the two of them were talking, Ma Liang had already finished explaining the "Juntian Order" to the security chiefs present.
With a happy look on their faces, the chiefs turned back to their respective camps, preparing to transmit to the people under their jurisdiction layer by layer.
It's a very easy to understand, and it's really well paid.
However, after a while, there was a thunderous cheer inside and outside the camp, and there were people facing the direction of Jinguan City, shouting:
"Hanzhong Wang Rende!"
At the same time, the imperial court's edict rewarding Ma Zhong, Jufu, Lin Hang, and Shen Feng for their meritorious services also arrived in time.
Along with this, there were also a few private letters from Jiang Wei who entrusted Zhao Yun's relationship and asked him to bring it.
But see the letter cloud:
Zhujun Taijian:
Suddenly, I was very concerned. After hearing that Jun had returned, he planned to invite three or five acquaintances to talk about his feelings and comfort him.
I hereby choose to prepare thin wine in Jinguancheng Phoenix Terrace on March 30, and invite the platform to come.
Jiang Wei is sincere.
