A native of Shunqing Mansion in Rui Yingrui, after claiming to be the Three Kingdoms Zhou Dynasty, he was quite domineering, and the sentry reported the two pillars of incense kung fu before he entered the camp to meet.

Bowing his hand, who knew that Chen Yingrui actually slapped the case a few times: "Bold fanatics, why don't you bow down and kowtow to your boss?" ”

Yang Lin forcibly suppressed his anger and said: "Back to the garrison, the last general performed the Ming military salute, and the Ming law decrees that the lower-level generals only need to give their hands to the higher-level generals."

I don't know what dynasty the army led by the general, why did the last general bow down and salute? ”

Obviously stunned, Chen Yingrui said angrily: "Of course, in our army, you will act according to the rules of this general, since you are my general, of course you will follow the orders of this general." ”

Yang Lin raised his head and arched his hand: "Although the last general is a general under the general, the last general and the general belong to the Ming generals, since they are Ming generals, they should abide by the laws of the Ming Dynasty."

If the general blatantly violates the "Ming Law", the general, as a Ming general, should have no subordinate relationship with the general.

Dare to be a general, do you have the law to disobey and dare to openly violate the Ming law set by Hong Wuye. ”

Chen Yingrui was quite annoyed, his chest rose and fell, and he forced the anger in his chest and said: "This general is a rough person, I don't want people like you to have a lot of flowers, this general only knows how to be loyal to the court, and I don't want to argue with you about the "Da Ming Law".

As the saying goes, there are no weak soldiers under a strong general, what kind of face do you have as a weak scholar to serve as a thousand generals in our army? ”

The surrounding generals laughed when they heard this, Yang Lin forcibly suppressed his inner dissatisfaction, shook his head and said: "What the general said is true, there are many brave generals in the garrison tent of the last general, if the last general expects it to be good, the martial arts in the tent are far better than the number of ten people."

Dare to ask Lord Garrison, since your skills are not as good as others, why don't you abdicate and make way for Xian? ”

Chen Yingrui was stunned for a moment, and laughed for a long time: "There are no weak soldiers under the strong generals, and there are many capable people in the old man's account."

You ask the generals here, who of them dare not listen to the old man's orders? ”

Yang Lin arched his hand and replied: "Although the last general is not as brave as the garrison, but on that day, Yang Wei, Long Zhijiao and several other general banners did not know how to defeat the garrison lord's five hundred elite soldiers.

The last general is not talented, so that the garrison adults laugh. ”

On the same day, Yang Lin was in the cell of Shunqing Mansion garrison Chen Yingrui led five hundred soldiers to be defeated by Yang Wei and others, this battle has been a great shame, and now I heard the other party mention the inner nest fire again, it can be imagined, Chen Yingrui was furious, and he was about to attack, and Feng Youqing, the right guard next to him, held down and admonished: "The garrison is a famous general in Sichuan, Yang Qian has also become famous recently, the two generals should not be surprised, and the two generals should abandon their previous suspicions to protect local peace." ”

Yang Lin arched his hand and said: "What the right garrison lord said is exact, besides, we are all Ming generals now, and we have the ability to go to the battlefield to see who has made the most meritorious contributions, instead of sarcastic to each other."

Feng Shoubei, now that the local tyrants are entrenched in Bazhou, they may make a comeback at any time, and the general will be busy with official business, and he will meet again when he has time in the future. ”

Immediately, ignoring how Chen Yingrui roared above the hall, he turned around and left the camp.

Looking at the Jialing River flowing eastward in the distance, everyone was sad and miserable when they talked about being dismissed, and they all bluntly said that the world was as black as a crow.

Yang Lin said with a smile: "Brothers, it is not in line with the etiquette system for a local person to serve as a local judge, and the dismissed officials are also being cleaned up, and you adults have nothing to blame." ”

Having said that, everyone sees the benefits of the government's direct collection of commercial taxes, Shen Wansan has a cornucopia, and every commercial port is actually a cornucopia, through which the financial problem can be solved and local apportionment can be exempted.

At this point, everyone felt that the government was in a difficult period of direct collection of commercial taxes, and the flame of innovation that was really melancholy was extinguished as soon as it was ignited.

Seeing that everyone looked so heavy, Chen Huaixi arched his hand and changed the topic and said: "Brother Ruzhen, in Japan and China, you talked about the strategy of exterminating the local tyrants in northern Sichuan, saying that there are three points of military and seven points of politics, and now that Brother Tai has been removed from the state judge and civilian position, how can you achieve these seven points of politics?" ”

Yang Lin arched his hand and said: "If you want to exterminate the local tyrants, you must train elite soldiers, and this time I will go back to train more than 1,000 elite soldiers, and I will use one as ten on the battlefield to collect them."

Although everyone is the way of government, as the saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and the most important thing to stabilize the place is to solve the financial problem first. Since the uprising of the victims in northern Shaanxi, why has it intensified, why it has endured for many years, the most important thing is money.

The imperial court had no money to relieve the victims, no money to exterminate the Liukou, no money to prevent the Liaodong Jiannu, the emperor was forced to levy three salaries in desperation, and the local government was apportioned layer by layer, coupled with the clever seizure of the officials, so the field endowment and Ding Fu were several times that of the positive endowment, so the Liukou intensified, and the state affairs were so difficult.

To guard against the establishment of slaves in Liaodong, to pacify the rogues, to exterminate the local tyrants, the most important thing is to solve the financial problem, and the most important thing is to abolish the apportionment of the government at all levels.

Let's think about it, if the government does not apportionment at all levels, the yamen is lightly endowed, and the common people have a way to live, who is willing to lick the blood from the knife edge of the rogue and the local tyrant and die at the end of the world. ”

Thinking of the government's apportionment, the officials urging salaries, and many poor people avoiding taxes and becoming homeless, everyone sighed for a while, and Xichong Xiucai Ma Mingluan choked and said: "Brother Ruzhen, you are a civil and military all-rounder, you say, what do you want to do?" ”

Thinking of the reform experience in his previous life, Yang Lin had already paid attention to it in his heart, and arched his hand: "Everyone, you don't need to be too pessimistic, although the officials oppose it, it is because the vast majority of local squires do not know the benefits and do not stand up for it in public support."

If everyone sees the huge benefits of recovering the right to expropriate the business endowment in the hands of the powerful and powerful, when the local squires and ordinary people stand up for help, even if one or two corrupt officials openly oppose it, what is the use? ”

Seeing that Yang Lin was not discouraged, everyone applauded loudly, and asked one by one what they wanted?

Yang Lin was also quite happy, that is, taking advantage of the opportunity of training soldiers in Pengzhou, that is, to first recover the right to collect taxes from Haoqiang in the towns and towns that he could control, that is, to exempt all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes in the areas under his control.

Yang Lin said with a smile: "Everyone, everyone knows that good things don't go out and evil things go thousands of miles, if the local squires and ordinary people see such great benefits, don't they spread it by word of mouth?"

As long as everyone supports and the climate is formed, even if we don't make trouble, I think the gentry and common people in other places will demand that the government abolish all apportionment. ”

Everyone applauded loudly, Fan Mingshan looked worried, and said: "Ruzhen, Governor Lord Chen and Lord Daotai Long are rare officials. But if you think about it, now that they don't even support the removal of you from office, even if the local squire petitions in the future, what is the use? ”

Thinking of the various interest groups in his previous life and the innovative actions in the past, Yang Lin seemed full of self-confidence, and said loudly: "Everyone, think about it, what kind of people are the governor and the Daotai, how can they not know the benefits of recovering the rights of local merchants?"

But everything has a bright side, although it is beneficial to recover the right to expropriate business endowments from the hands of Haoqiang, there is no doubt that the interests of these Haoqiang are damaged.

In addition, there are also yamen officials and local officials, who can get different amounts of money every year, and now they are reclaimed by us, how can they be willing to fail?

They gathered together, spread rumors, and forced the governor and the Daotai to depose me in an attempt to regain the power of Shangfu.

In my Ming Dynasty, the local government nominally pays attention to the co-governance of the officials and gentry, and the real local co-governance is not those of us who are scholars, but those yamen officials, those local ruffians and hooligans who collude with officials and officials, and the local heroes and powers.

From this point of view, the collection of the right to collect commercial taxes from the hands of local ruffians and local tycoons has destroyed the local governance structure of our Ming Dynasty, and although the governor and the Taoist lord are honest officials, they do not dare to take the liberty of destroying the local gentry co-governance structure, so they are forced to dismiss the post of governor of our state.

Even so, the two adults did not follow the wishes of these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and the knowledge deposed me from my civilian position but promoted me to my military position, and I am now the general manager of Pengzhou Shouyu, so I can continue to implement the new policy with the support of everyone, and directly collect commercial taxes in the local government in the name of military training.

Ladies and gentlemen, as long as we work hard, we have to make achievements, and we want to tell you that as long as the levy of commercial taxes can ensure the silver taels needed for military training, there is no need to apportionment to the common people, as long as we do this, I believe that the governor and the Daotai will never see the benefits, I don't believe that in the future, the local squires and high-ranking officials of the court will always oppose it. ”

While the vast majority think this is too scholarly, a few are infected.

On the same day, Gu Xiancheng fought for the crown prince Zhu Changluo in the Wanli Dynasty and won the Mingshenzong Zhu Yijun and dismissed the official and went home to rebuild the Donglin Academy, and then used this as the basis to form the Donglin Party, and finally affected the political situation of the court at the end of the Ming Dynasty. (In this way, it can be seen that the Ming Dynasty was different from the Qing Dynasty, and the scholars of the Ming Dynasty could openly form associations and form parties.) ）

Ten years of trees and a hundred years of people, it is not easy to change the atmosphere, when Gu Xiancheng retired to Donglin Academy, who knows the trend of Donglin Party members today?

Although some people are eager to try, most of them also know that it is difficult, Fan Mingshan thought for a while and said: "Ruzhen, Gu Xiancheng and others are the people who founded the Donglin Party after the high school jinshi, I can't wait for a tribute student, and people are soft-spoken."

Ruzhen, you are still young, why don't you continue to study hard, as long as you can take revenge in your chest in the future. ”

Yang Lin shook his head and said: "How to save the people of Li from fire and water, I should encourage you together." Now the world is turbulent, there are Liaodong Tartars who have entered the Koujing division many times, and there are Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong's local thugs who have troubled China, although Yu knows that the period is difficult, he should follow the example of Yue Wumu and Qi Wuyi, and devote himself to the army. ”

Everyone was full of complaints, looking at the water of the Jialing River flowing eastward.
