Chapter 140: A blunt knife cuts meat
After reading the battle report in his hand, Jiang Chuan felt a little lighter in his heart. Although Baishan's method seems to be a little slow, cutting meat with a blunt knife will also make Gaizhou's tartars slowly lose blood and die.
If the Tartars don't send troops out of the city, it doesn't matter, anyway, clearing these villages outside the city is equivalent to cutting off the wings of the Tartars, in short, no matter what the Tartars do, Baishan will definitely gain.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chuan suddenly remembered that he seemed to have intentionally or unintentionally neglected the Tartar village near Liaoyang. Now that Liaoyang City has been defeated, it is time to consider how to deal with the Manchu and Mongolian slave owners in these villages.
In order to fully consolidate their rule in this region, these Manchu Tartars must be eliminated. Getting rid of these people is not only to get rid of potential threats, but also to win over those Han Chinese who are enslaved.
It's just that he hasn't figured out exactly how to do it for a while.
Jiang Chuan walked into the signing room with the battle report, personally wrote a reply letter to Bai Shan, and then handed it to Li Jian and asked him to send someone to Bai Shan.
He sat back down in the room, listed the next things he thought of next, and then wrote his thoughts under each item.
When I sat down, I found that what I had to do was to think more and more, and I wrote more than a dozen pages to almost write down what I was thinking, and when I threw down the pen and got up straight and walked out of the signing room, I found that it was already dusk, and there were patches of fiery sunset hanging in the sky, indicating that tomorrow would be another sunny day.
Seeing Jiang Chuan come out, Mu Yi, who was already waiting outside, hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master Hou, dinner has already been ready, see that you are busy, your subordinates don't dare to disturb." You take a break, and your subordinates have someone warm up the food before bringing it over. ”
Everyone knows that Jiang Chuan doesn't like to be bothered by some trivial things when he is focused, even if it is eating. At this time, if anyone bother, they will be unlucky.
Bai Mu, the captain of the pro-guard battalion, is not only Jiang Chuan's bodyguard captain, but also has to make a cameo appearance as a temporary assistant. Now that Bai Mu has returned to Erlong Valley, these things can naturally only be handed over to Mu Yi, the Sima of the Chinese army, to do it for him.
Jiang Chuan nodded and said, "You look at the arrangement." ”
Mu Yi breathed a sigh of relief, for fear that something would go wrong with his first guest appearance as a life assistant. Now it seems that this Hou Ye has no shelf in terms of living, and he is very good at serving, so he hurriedly agreed to arrange it.
A guard called a basin of clear water, Jiang Chuan stretched out his hand to find out the cold water, and didn't say anything, but began to miss the days when Qi Xuan took care of his daily life. However, he will not blame these guards, after all, these rough men are good at battlefield fighting, and women are more careful in taking care of people.
Washed his head and face casually with cold water, and then went to the back office of the county government, there is a small pavilion in the courtyard, simple and elegant, although the weather in March is still quite cool at night, but Jiang Chuan still likes to sit in the pavilion to blow the wind, and will feel comfortable and open-minded a lot.
After eating in the pavilion, Jiang Chuan returned to the signing room, and went over the things he had listed again by the light, and then washed and went to sleep.
Bai Mu went back very quickly, Liu Ji came very quickly, and when the sun was about to set on the second day, Liu Ji rushed to Liaoyang City with people.
"Strategist, you're really fast, I'm thinking about whether you'll be there tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." After Jiang Chuan heard the announcement, he came out of the county office to greet him, and when he saw Liu Ji with a dusty face, he laughed.
"The lord is called, and Ji doesn't dare to be unhappy." Liu Ji greeted him with a smile.
"But, my lord, I'm not here alone." After Liu Ji finished speaking, he moved away with a smile, Jiang Chuan realized that there was a carriage parked behind him, and he was stunned for a moment, although he had some guesses, he didn't say it, and looked at the movement of the carriage with a smile.
The curtain of the carriage was gently lifted by a plain white jade hand, and a beautiful figure leaned out of the carriage, not Qi Xuan but which one.
"Why are you here, it's a bumpy road, and the taste of riding a carriage is not pleasant, right?" Jiang Chuan was slightly stunned and said with a chuckle.
Qi Xuan's face turned red and she didn't speak, but Liu Ji said with a smile: "Miss Qi Xuan begged me to bring her over after she knew that the lord had summoned her." She has always been worried about her father-in-law fighting outside the world these days, and there is no one around to take care of her, for fear that her father-in-law is a little unaccustomed, so I had to bring her here. ”
Jiang Chuan was a little moved in his heart, and said to Qi Xuan with a smile: "You really think I am a greenhouse flower, unbearable to be tempered by wind and rain." When we are at home, we eat and sleep on the hot kang. When the war is outside, everything is simple, just eat and drink, and there is so much to take care of. If you can't endure this hardship, then it is better to take you to find a good place to be a farmer to be at ease. ”
The men are all good-looking, Jiang Chuan himself was still nostalgic for the good days when Qi Xuan was waiting for him yesterday, but today he started to brag seriously in front of others.
Qi Xuan didn't speak, just looked at her with a smile, with a hint of shyness, and seemed to be a little happy. However, in Jiang Chuan's opinion, it seems that what people are expressing is: "I don't speak, I just quietly watch you pretend." The old man blushed and said, "Strategist, let's talk inside." ”
As he spoke, he took Liu Ji and the others to the county office.
The group settled down, washed up, and had a meal. There are many houses in this county office, and the original officials and officials have all fled, and Jiang Chuan originally wanted to arrest these guys back, but there has been no trace, and he doesn't care about him.
When Qi Xuan came, she also brought several maids, and after eating, she took the maids to clean up a room for Liu Ji, and cleaned up Jiang Chuan's room again.
Jiang Chuan took the memo he had written in the past two days and talked with Liu Ji about the big things he wanted to do. After discussing it all night, the two finally settled on a few things to do at the moment.
First: Send troops to sort out the villages and settlements around Liaoyang, and those who are willing to submit obediently, those Manchu and Mongolian slave owners can save a life, but they must be deprived of all their family property and fields, work like the Han people, and give the seven transactions to the government. If they are unwilling to cooperate and surrender, then use thunderous means to clear them directly, and all the fields and property will be confiscated.
And for those freed Han slaves, all of them ascended the throne and made a book, restored their status as free people, and distributed land, seeds, ploughing cattle and other things according to the head, and began spring ploughing.
Second, the fields on the outskirts of Liaoyang must be organized for the people to start spring ploughing, and the government will provide seeds, cattle and other means of production. At the time of the autumn harvest, the grain income can be sold to the government, and this rent ratio is lower than the proportion stipulated by ordinary landlords, which is very attractive to the common people.
Third, for those ownerless wastelands, organize captives to reclaim the fields. Prisoners who work hard and who have performed well after one year can apply to join the army and enjoy the treatment of regular soldiers. If you don't want to join the army, you can be given the status of a freedman and be given land to become a farmer. If you cheat and deliberately do not cooperate, you will be whipped for the first time and beheaded directly for the second time.
Fourth, after the completion of spring ploughing, gather troops and prepare to attack Quang Ninh, and strive to take Quang Ninh City as quickly as possible.
