Chapter 304: Ganzhou's Return

Chapter 304: The Return of Ganzhou (Page 1/1)

Zhang Xinchen said: "In the city of Ganzhou, all the residents have moved out, and the Ming army will requisition the entire city. ”

The city of Ganzhou is very large, and now there are people of all ethnic groups living in the city, and Zhang Xinchen wants to drive everyone out of the city, which naturally causes everyone's dissatisfaction. When even a representative replied: "General Zhang, the city of Ganzhou is large, and there is a special barracks in the city, and the general only has 10,000 soldiers, so why do you need everyone to move out of the city?" "The representatives of the other tribes also felt that it was too much to drive everyone out of the city.

Zhang Xinchen looked at the representative and smiled: "It's just 10,000?" This is the most elite soldier of my Ming Dynasty, and I said politely, you will come back with 100,000 soldiers, and I am afraid that we will be killed in one day. ”

This is Chiguoguo's threat, and the representative of Hui heard the anger in Zhang Xinchen's words, but he was even more angry in his heart. Isn't it yourself who should be angry now? You have driven us out of the city, where are we going to settle down, and how are our possessions to be moved out of the city? Our temple is in the middle of the city, how do you tell us to pray?

The representative of Huihui said angrily: "The meaning of General Zhang's words seems to be that he wants to kill all the Huihui in Ganzhou. In that case, we are willing to fight. We can make up 100,000 soldiers, but I'm afraid that the whole of Ganzhou will be in ruins by then. ”

Zhang Xinchen laughed and said, "It's been a long time since I've seen such a tough person. Then please set a time and place, let's kill for a while, those who win will live in Ganzhou, and those who lose will all die. ”

The representative of Hui Hui originally just wanted to threaten Zhang Xinchen to let him know that Hui Hui was in charge of this place in Ganzhou, and he didn't want this Leng Touqing to really want to fight with Hui Hui, which would be troublesome now.

Gansu Town has a rare rice planting area in Northwest China, which is mainly distributed in the Ganzhou area. There is abundant food here, but the Mongols and the Wasu people and the Tibetan Tusi in the Kham area are mixed together, and there are often conflicts, so that the Han people here flee back to the interior in large numbers, and the escape of the Han people makes the Hui Hui become the main planters here, although they are not as good as the Han people's planting technology, and they are not as attentive as the Han people, but compared to the Mongolian Washu and Tibetans who do not know how to grow rice at all, it is still very good. Hui Hui has been breeding here in Gansu Town for many years, because they can farm, and other ethnic groups have not embarrassed them. Now seeing that Zhang Xinchen dared to threaten them, as soon as the envoy entered, he was excited, and he clamored to fight the Mingren. In his mind, if he returned to the country and no longer planted rice, the food problem in Ganzhou and even the entire Gansu town would become a big problem, and Zhang Xinchen should not dare to face this situation. But he had forgotten who he had learned the technique of returning to planting.

The words of the representative of Huihui have already been spoken, but Zhang Xinchen seems to have no scruples about the chaos in Ganzhou at all, and he must first eliminate Huihui. He looked around, hoping that someone would come out and go around, but he saw that the representatives of the other ethnic groups were looking down at the ground, and they had no intention of getting involved in the dispute between the Ming and the Huihui.

Finally, his brain turned quickly, and he said loudly: "Emperor Taizu once made a hundred words of praise for the imperial system, and the Ming royal family also issued an edict to allow him to return to live in the Ming Dynasty, and General Zhang cannot slaughter Huihui." ”

Hui Hui was not discriminated against in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang did praise the imperial saint hundred characters, but Hui Hui was not treated preferentially in the Ming Dynasty. The reason why Gansu towns come back so often is only because they can do some work that only Han Chinese can do to a certain extent, and they are not very respected, and they are not as important as they think. Zhang Xinchen was annoyed that Hui Hui dared to bully the Han people in Gansu Town, and then saw that Hui Hui was so tough that he immediately issued an invitation to fight. He actually understands that it is impossible to really kill this place, not whether he can kill it or not, but that this matter is too big, and even the emperor will not be able to protect him at that time.

At this time, seeing that the representative of Huihui had no confidence, he said happily: "Since you don't dare to fight, then General Ben's suggestion should be listened to." ”

The main residence in the city of Ganzhou is Huihui, and the Mongols and Washuang people prefer to live in tents, so Zhang Xinchen wants to expel the people in the city, and they have no opinion. Since the Hui people had softened, the representatives of the other two ethnic groups naturally had no opinions, so the matter was decided.

Zhang Xinchen re-measured the land in Ganzhou, announcing that all fields would be taxed according to the 30% harvest. This is actually good for renting land in the mainland for cultivation, but the Hui people don't pay taxes at all on weekdays, and at most whoever occupies Ganzhou will give one percent of the output, and now it has suddenly increased to three percent, and the Hui people feel that the Ming people are too greedy.

And Zhang Xinchen drove out all the people in Ganzhou City, vacating a large number of houses, because most of the people living in the city were Huihui, which made the Huihui even more dissatisfied. Then there is a return to start a tandem, ready to concentrate on concentrating on the greedy Akito.

The Hui knew that it was impossible to defeat the Ming by force, just look at the results of the Mongols and the Wasang. So they came up with a solution, that is, no longer planting fields, and sent a representative back to Hui, saying to Zhang Xinchen: "Because the tax is too heavy, we can't afford to return to Hui, so we will hand over the land to General Zhang, and ask General Zhang to choose another meritorious." ”

Zhang Xinchen was surprised: "If you don't farm the land, won't the land be wasted?" Besides, if you don't farm anymore, what will you live on? ”

The representative said proudly: "We have savings back home, and we are very good at business in addition to farming, so thank you for the general's concern." ”

Zhang Xinchen asked: "It can't be that all the returns will stop farming." ”

The representative of Huihui said with a smile: "The biggest feature of our Huihui is unity, and if one family does not plant, all Huihui will not farm." ”

Zhang Xinchen smiled and said: "Then please let the representative go, this general still has to worry about farming, so he won't send it away." ”

The representative said with a smile: "Then I hope that General Zhang will find someone to farm the land as soon as possible, and this agricultural time will be almost over, and a delay will be a matter of a year." After saying that, he walked away.

Zhang Xinchen said to the guards: "Send a message to Governor Hong, immigrants from all over Shaanxi can come to Ganzhou." ”

Shaanxi Governor Hong Chengchou had already carried out propaganda to immigrate to Ganzhou in the relatively poor Yan'an and Yulin Prefectures of Shaanxi, and in the official propaganda materials, Ganzhou was known as the land of mulberry and hemp, the land of fish and rice. The mountains and rivers here are beautiful, the land is flat, and it is suitable for growing crops such as wheat, rice, oilseeds, beans and so on. All those who are willing to immigrate to Ganzhou, adult men are given 50 mu of land, and women are given 20 mu of land, both of which are fertile land that does not have to pay money to the imperial court to buy land, and there is no need to pay taxes on land in Ganzhou for five years.
