Chapter 1: Training Anmin Town Tongzhou

Section 10 Divide the land into households

It has been more than ten days since Liu Yunwei received the holy decree, and during this time, Liu Yunwei led everyone to focus on checking all the land in his hands, and completely found out the situation of the 100,000 displaced people. Liu Yunwei plans to divide all the land into the hands of the displaced people before and after the spring ploughing, and organize the spring ploughing as soon as possible, so that he cannot delay this year's agricultural time, otherwise he will continue to bear the livelihood of these 100,000 displaced people in the coming year, which will be a very heavy burden.

After careful investigation, Liu Yunwei summoned Master Chen, who was specifically responsible for this matter, as well as Lu Ying and other thousands of general managers, to the Chinese army's big tent and began to discuss specific land distribution matters.

Master Chen held a thick scroll in his hand and said to everyone: "General, ladies and gentlemen, after statistics, there are more than 102,300 displaced people under our rule, about 19,000 households, and the rest of the population are homeless; Among the displaced population, there are about 38,000 young men, about 41,000 strong women, and the rest of the population are all old people and children. ”

After finishing speaking, Liu Yunwei said: "These displaced people will divide their fields into households in the future, and they must divide their fields according to households!" Therefore, those who are single and homeless must start a family as soon as possible, otherwise they will not be able to get land. ”

Zhao Kaishan said suspiciously: "But eldest brother, the eyes are about to start dividing the land, where can those single people go to find someone to marry?" ”

Everyone laughed in a low voice when they heard this, causing Zhao Kaishan to roll his eyes for a while. Liu Yunwei also smiled and said: "It's okay to let those single male and female homeless people get married in pairs, or marry Tongzhou locals!" Tell the homeless people that they will not be given land if they do not have a family, and set a deadline for them. I believe that it will not be long before the displaced people will find a way to start a family on their own. ”

Zhao Kaishan was still a little unconvinced, and said, "Is it really okay?" Can those people really start a family on their own in a short period of time? ”

"Don't underestimate the wisdom of the people, and don't underestimate the attractiveness of the land to the people." Liu Yunwei said: "If we can get enough land to support their families, those people will do everything they can to work hard." ”

Everyone nodded when they heard this: for the people, especially the peasants, the importance of land is self-evident, and the history of China for thousands of years is not a process of peasants' pursuit of land? When a dynasty can meet the peasants' demand for land, the whole of China will be quite stable, and it will become strong and powerful with the support of hundreds of people; Otherwise, the land of Shenzhou will be full of smoke, and the dynasty will be opposed by countless landless peasants, and will eventually be overwhelmed by millions of peasant armies.

Liu Yunwei was very clear about this point, so when the Hanwei Army had not yet been reorganized, the generals who had built weapons and armor had not yet been prepared, and the latest structure of the Hanwei Army had not yet been decided, Liu Yunwei first took out the matter of dividing the 100,000 displaced people into households and took it as the primary problem to solve. Whether this matter can be perfectly resolved is directly related to the success or failure of subsequent matters.

Liu Yunwei looked at everyone, and then said, "Master Chen, let's talk about the land situation in our hands now." ”

Master Chen nodded and said, "General, ladies and gentlemen, after this crackdown on corruption, our Hanwei Army has confiscated more than 8,000 acres of corrupt officials' fields (more than 800,000 acres). After all these displaced people become families, there will be about 25,000 households, and according to the general's intentions and the quality of the land in Tongzhou, a family can support a family with 15 acres of land, and there will be a lot of surplus grain. I wonder if the general thinks this plan is feasible? ”

Liu Yunwei thought about it for a moment and said: "Yes, just divide it according to this amount, but when dividing the land, you must make it clear to these displaced people that from now on they must become the military households of my Tongzhou Town, otherwise they will not be able to share the land." In addition, there are about 400,000 mu of land left that have not been allocated, and all these lands must be measured clearly. Next, when our Hanwei army is reorganized, it is impossible for all of these 180,000 prisoners to become battalion soldiers, in that case, our army raising costs will be too huge, and the imperial court cannot afford such a high military expenditure; When the time comes, I will turn most of the captives into the Weisu Army and implement a military cantonment in our Tongzhou Town, so as to be self-sufficient and serve as a reserve force for our Hanwei Army. ”

Everyone felt that Liu Yunwei's words were feasible when they heard it, and Lu Ying said: "It seems that we have really done the right thing to crack down on corruption this time, not only solving the livelihood problem of 100,000 displaced people, but also solving the land with the army." ”

Yuan Mingxuan also said approvingly: "Yes, it's still the little general who is decisive, otherwise we will be at a loss, without these lands, how can we settle these homeless people and prisoners?" You must know that if there is no land to cultivate, these exiles and captives will become two mountains, and it will not take long to completely crush our Hanwei army. ”

Everyone thought so.

Liu Yunwei was also a little embarrassed to be praised by everyone, and after a few modest words, he said: "Okay, let's decide on the matter of dividing the fields into households." Next, Master Chen immediately mobilized manpower to start preparing for the specific division of land, and immediately posted a notice to limit that all displaced people must start a family within 15 days, otherwise they will not be able to get the land; At the same time, Lu Ying led the soldiers of the Feiyu Department to assist Master Chen, do a good job in the measurement and distribution of land, and set aside the land in Juntun; Lord Yuan, spring ploughing is about to begin, please take someone to count how many ploughing cattle, farm tools, and seeds are still missing from the homeless, and contact Li Ruhua Shangshu of the household department to make up for us as soon as possible, even if we need to spend money to buy it, the time must be guaranteed. ”

Lu Ying and Master Chen hugged their fists together to receive the order, and Yuan Mingxuan also said: "Little general, don't worry, after the statistics, I will personally go to the capital and make up all the required materials." ”

"With Lord Yuan and you, I am naturally very relieved."

After that, Liu Yunwei continued: "After relocating these 100,000 displaced people, our next thing is to determine the formation of the Hanwei Army, and I will carefully consider this matter." However, before that, the training of the officers and men of the various departments must not be relaxed, and the 180,000 prisoners must also be re-screened, and all those who are strong and honest and obedient are the first choice for reorganizing into battalions, and the rest will all be reorganized into cantonment troops; This matter must be carried out first, Wu Xing will take the lead, and the rest of you will assist. ”

Wu Xing and the rest of the people all clenched their fists and took their lives.

After Liu Yunwei finished arranging, he said to everyone: "Everyone, since Your Majesty values our Hanwei Army so much, for us to set up a special military town in Tongzhou, we must do some achievements, and we must not live up to Your Majesty's expectations!" ”

"I am willing to follow the general, train the army and strengthen the army, and defend the country!" The generals shouted loudly in unison.

In the next ten days, the entire Tongzhou camp and even the entire Tongzhou town were boiling, full of Hanwei soldiers measuring the land in the fields, and everywhere were teams busy transporting all kinds of tuntian materials. The homeless people in the camp are even more busy, the homeless people who have already married are full of joy waiting for the day when the fields are divided, and the homeless people who have not yet started a family are looking for the opposite sex everywhere, and they are very busy. With the assistance of the officers and men of the Hanwei Army, the 100,000 displaced people were rewritten and the 100,000 displaced people were changed from civilian registration to military registration and into military households in Tongzhou Town.

During this period, Liu Yunwei also led a team of Longxiang Iron Cavalry soldiers to patrol everywhere, constantly checking the progress of the distribution of fields to households, as well as the preparation for spring ploughing. When Liu Yunwei came to the field, looking at the endless farmland, his heart was full of joy and hope: "Great, with military households and land, and with reserve soldiers, my Hanwei army will be able to build a steady stream of strong troops!" In the future, you will be invincible against Jiannu! ”

And when Liu Yunwei came to Daying to inspect the situation of the homeless people, the originally lively scene instantly got out of control, and countless homeless people shouted Liu Yunwei's name loudly, as if they saw the Qingtian master, and surrounded Liu Yunwei and his party in the middle.

In the hearts of these displaced people, Liu Yunwei, who gave them the land, is their reborn parents! Because it was Liu Yunwei who did not drive these displaced people away like other officials after their homes were destroyed, but set off a storm of anti-corruption and killed corrupt officials to give them evil anger, and then gave them the land they coveted, this kindness is remembered by every homeless person. It is estimated that if Liu Yunwei raises his arms now, these 100,000 homeless people will gather and follow Liu Yunwei to the soup without the slightest hesitation.

When Liu Yunwei saw such a warm scene, he was also infected by the enthusiasm of the displaced people, and shouted loudly with everyone, venting the happiness in his heart.

"The hearts of the people are available! The people's hearts are available! With the support of these people and the followers of the whole army, I will definitely be able to defeat Jiannu! The day of revenge is not far off! Liu Yunwei's heart thought silently, his eyes were full of determination.

At this moment, a Bai general manager found Liu Yunwei through the crowded crowd and pulled Liu Yunwei to shout something. However, there were too many people around, and Liu Yunwei never heard what the Bai Zong said, so Liu Yunwei and the Bai Zong squeezed out of the crowd together.

After Liu Yunwei and others squeezed out of the crowd, the Bai Zong said it again, and Liu Yunwei heard what the Bai Zong said: "Mr. Sun Yuanhua has returned to Tongzhou!" ”
