Chapter 364: Maybe it's land reform

Jiang Feng led an army of 7,000 soldiers, minzhuang and slaves, and smashed the 60,000 Mongol troops in the Taining Weitar River valley outside the Guan, beheading nearly 30,000, and the remaining Mongol troops were completely scattered and almost fled to the steppe.

The Bandi Khan of the Watt Spur Department became the Great Khan of the whole Mongolia for just over a year, and he completely lost this status, and even did not have the power of Western Mongolia before, and the tribes on the steppe lost a large number of people and property because of this expedition, and they could only disperse into many small tribes to start nomadic again, and even the strength to raid the south was insufficient.

However, because of the defeat of the Tatar Mongols and the Mongols this time, the population of the steppe has decreased a lot, and the corresponding per capita possession of materials and grasslands has also increased, so the herdsmen can get by.

The life of the herdsmen has little to do with the situation in Mongolia as a whole, and the Mongolia, which has been fundamentally wounded, has no strength to invade the Ming Dynasty in the south for sixty years, and the demand for slaves outside the Guan, and the captivity of the people on the steppe, will not allow them to recover at all.

The Ming army in the pass is still in a nervous move, their task is to defend Liao Town, Jizhen, that is, Liaoning and Beijing Division North Zhili area, since it is a dead defense, naturally for the battle outside the pass is not clear, not to mention that the battle there takes place in the semi-closed river valley.

When the troops from Shaanxi arrived at Beijing, it was already snowing, but fortunately, Shaanxi was also a bitter cold place, and the camps and facilities in the Beijing camp outside the city were relatively good, and they quickly settled down.

The Beijing camp is now garrisoned by Liaozhen, and the Qin army from afar here is outside the capital, so the emperor naturally wants to give an order to comfort him, and he also sent the eunuchs around him out of Beijing to reward. The nobles and ministers of the Jingshi, especially the backstage of the Jingshi merchant group with a large number of manors outside the Guan, are not in a good mood these days.

Their manor owners outside the gate or the relatives and cronies sent over were all panicked and ran back from the gate, many people brought news, saying that Jiang Feng was preparing to intercept the army of the Tile Spur in the Taal River Valley, that was less than 10,000 soldiers and horses to deal with the other party's 60,000, no one thought that there would be any miracle, he was distressed about the foundation he had managed with great difficulty, and at the same time gritted his teeth and prepared to agitate the imperial court to the Northern Expedition.

Even if those estates of oneself pay taxes to the imperial court, even if those estates become the emperor's imperial estate, it is much better than falling into the hands of the Mongols and not making money at all.

There are still hundreds of thousands of people and more than 10,000 soldiers in the Incheon River Peak, which is a big piece of fat, not only a huge fleet, but also a large estate that produces cane sugar, this is a real cornucopia, and when the situation is completely calmed down, will these things be swallowed.

After Jiang Feng was sure that the battle between himself and the tile spur was finally won, his reinforcements arrived, and Jiang Feng was also angry in his heart, this reinforcement came to no avail. Basically, he came to the battlefield after the results of his battles were determined, what was the use of that.

However, he also misunderstood his subordinates, thinking that everyone knew that the Mongol soldiers were close to 60,000, so Zhang Liang, the officer led by the Jiang family's army, did not dare to slack off, and brought 4,000 men, a regular army of half musketeers and half spearmen, as well as ten cannons, the smallest caliber was three pounds, the largest was six pounds, and there were sufficient supplies.

With an army of this size, don't expect any outstanding marching speed, and as a result, after Jiang Feng completely drove the army of the Watt Thorn out of the Taal River Valley, the reinforcements reached the edge of the valley.

Jiang Feng's killing can be said to be full of blood, many corpses are left at the bottom of the Taer River forever, and after many years, they dare not fish and eat fish in the Taer River, because if you taste it in the fish belly, you will find a certain part of the human body, and there is a raging forest fire, although a large number of uncut trees were burned by the fire, but the same large number of corpses provided abundant nutrients to this forest.

A few decades later, the trees grew more luxuriantly, but it became a forbidden place, because the so-called Taal valley has become synonymous with hell in the minds of the nomadic peoples of the steppe.

Because the battle was over, most of the senior generals of the Tile Spur tribe didn't even know what kind of army the other party was in the Ming Dynasty, and who the generals were who the leaders were.

At present, only a few manors close to Liao Town have a manor owner guarding them, and the rest of the places are left guards, and half of the guards are guarded there. Without a leader, the guards are also insufficient. Outside the gate was like a vacuum, although the guards under Jiang Feng's command had only been led by Jiang Feng for a month.

However, they have all been broken up and trained according to the establishment of the Jiang family's army, and the original situation of forming gangs and factions according to the different manors they came from has disappeared, they are only soldiers of a hundred households under the Jiang family's army at this time, and because of Jiang Feng's strength and strong deterrence, they dare not make any abnormal moves.

According to common sense, after the battle is over, Jiang Feng should send these guards back to their respective manors, and Jiang Feng did so, but the guards did not go back according to what manor they served in before, but completely according to Jiang Feng's own instructions.

Zhang Liang brought 4,000 soldiers, except for the 1,000 soldiers who were left to defend Huifeng Manor, the rest of the people were scattered into large and small troops, and followed those guards to various manors.

The people and guards who participated in the battle this time were all granted fields, and 100 mu per person was not too small a amount, as for how to be satisfied, Jiang Feng did not want to continue to expand the territory and develop those wastelands and swamps further north, but directly divided the land of the reclamation manor outside the pass and distributed it to these warriors.

At the same time, it was announced that as long as he was outside the Guan, no matter how he had a relationship with the former lord of the manor, whether it was a master and a slave or a master and a slave. All of them are judged according to civilians, and their land can be allocated by the Jiang Army.

In fact, this is already a declaration that the rules of those manor owners are completely innumerable, and in the past, the various reclamation estates outside the gate basically divided their interests among each other according to the size of the backstage of the Jingshi merchant group in the gate, in fact, their guards were more used to defend and suppress the labor in the manor, rather than for external use.

Even if everyone is outside the Guan, a place where there is no royal law, most of the small families and the real foundation are in the Guan, and there is no transfer at all, and many people are not ready to transfer at all. Therefore, a manor with a background of Shangshu is naturally much stronger than a manor with a backstage of a waiter.

However, Jiang Feng's entire foundation is in Korea, Yizhou and the sea, he has the army and armed forces in his own hands, after he announced the disposal of the Han people outside the Guan, many reclamation manors were caught off guard, first, their manor owners have long been hiding in the Guannei, and secondly, now Jiang Feng's own troops outside the Guanguan are already 6,000 people, and these 6,000 are real elite soldiers, if you count the regimental training and the people, I am afraid there will be more than 10,000 people.

The guards sent by various manors for reinforcements followed Jiang Feng for a few days and trained for nearly two months, and they were completely broken up, and after the bloody battle, they also had feelings for each other, and the reason why they decided to fight with Jiang Feng was that after the battle, the Jiang family army naturally would not let the people and guards who fought together do it in vain, and a lot of gold and silver were brought out.

The amount of real gold and silver that Jiang Jiajun earned from the sea trade and sugar was quite a lot, and the large amount of gold and silver plundered by Spain and Portugal in Europe, and the gold and silver mines of Japan all flowed to Huazhou in Jiangfeng in large quantities, and then circulated to Jiangnan in the Ming Dynasty and exchanged for various handicraft products.

Since there is no shortage of money, of course you will not feel distressed when you initiate a reward, a large amount of gold and silver will be sent down, and there is also the order to grant land, this attitude is also clear, as long as you follow Jiang Feng or represent your center, you can get your land and become a small landlord.

If you are still loyal to the previous lord of the manor, you will not lose your gold and silver this time, but those lands will be gone, and these guards who come to the gate are all for money, and who can give more money to whom, whose fist is loud and who listens to whom.

The current Jiang Feng showed extremely strong combat power when he fought against the Tile Thorn Mongols, and when he rewarded him, he gave a large amount of money, and if such a force did not follow closely, would he still be able to do it right, so these people were the most resolute people who carried out Jiang Feng's land distribution order.

It turned out that those guards stationed in the field watched their original companions come back to distribute the fields, and some of them were desperate to follow the people of the manor owner and wanted to do some resistance, but they often didn't need to do anything, as long as those people announced Jiang Feng's order, those Han people who had been slaves for half a year and were miserable would spontaneously welcome people in, originally to come to Guanwai for food, who would have thought that they would come to Guanwai but even lose their personal freedom.

Now that the Jiang family army has come to liberate them and give them land, isn't this a savior that fell from the sky, and there is no reason not to provide for it.
