Chapter 262: Cultivating and Training
In addition to the food shortage in the cities, the most fundamental thing in local reconstruction is local tun farming, and to solve the problem of tun farming, the most important thing is that the cultivators have their own fields, the displaced people are controlled, and the local areas are peaceful, and only in this way can the common people immediately return to the fields to cultivate.
The army has been dispersed to various places to suppress bandits and plough.
In the past, more than 30% of the CD Plain was the king's field, more than 30% was the official field and the guard's tuntian, and the people's free field was only 30%.
Zhang Xianzhong entered the Kou, many people fled the famine, and a large area of land was wasted.
In recent years, the weather has been relatively smooth, and the weather has not been as abnormal as in previous years, and the fertile land of the CD Plain will only take a few years to restore the prosperity of the old days as long as the people return to the fields and continue farming.
Last year, the volunteers entered Sichuan, and the people began to return, and everyone also planted wheat, peas and other grains in the fields in the autumn of last year.
But at the end of last year, the Tartars entered Sichuan, and the strikers once approached CD City, and many people began to flee again, and now that the Tartars have been driven out of Sichuan, everyone will naturally come back to cultivate the land.
Riding horses to the countryside to inspect, but often find large areas of land wasted, looking at the local upper-displaced people, the place needs large-scale farming.
Now the volunteers have dispersed to various states and counties, one to carry out cantonment farming, and the other to exterminate bandits.
After years of turmoil, local bandits are very rampant, although these people are very rude to the people, how can they be opponents of the army.
Often, there are two or three officers and men of the brigade (sentinel) in each county, and they pay the fees under the leadership of the general and deputy offices.
In the perennial campaign, Yang Lin felt the importance of grassroots generals.
In the past, when I was in northern Sichuan, the outposts (brigades) were sent to the local area to assist in suppressing bandits, or hunting fierce beasts in the mountains.
Now these generals are placed on one side to take on the heavy task of suppressing bandits, which is equivalent to exercising everyone's ability to lead troops independently, rather than simply obeying like the old army. (This is also the method of training the personal ability of the generals of the Red Army and the Eighth Route Army, and everyone often leads the team to train independently, fights guerrillas, and accumulates over the years, and of course trains a unique method of leading troops)
In recent years, the wind and rain in Shunqing Mansion in northern Sichuan have been smooth, and the place is also peaceful, some people have food stored in their homes, and the officials beat gongs and drums to the place to encourage everyone to go to the CD Plain to cultivate.
In this way, although nearly 10,000 people were recruited, everyone helped the old and the young to come to the CD Plain to cultivate, and only the government needed to divide the territory, and there was little need for government subsidies.
However, those displaced people are different, and most of them adopt the models of official tun, military tun, and min tun.
The so-called Guantun Juntun is mainly aimed at those displaced people and captives who have no surplus grain and are penniless, and the government provides cattle and grain for tun farming, and the land is completed in the tun, and the government is exempt from taxation in the first two years, and collects four times the tax of the people in the third year.
More of them are mintun, the villagers rely on their own strength to carry out tun farming, the first three years of tun land do not pay any taxes, on the contrary, the government yamen can also loan two loads of grain per household, and return four loads of grain within three years.
Yang Lin rode a horse early every morning to inspect the porridge shops inside and outside the city, and many people took the grain relief from the government to plough the food, and now there are not many homeless people on the streets.
After half a month, seeing that the place had settled down, Yang Lin rushed to Dujiangyan in the north with a cavalry brigade to organize the rebuilding of the water conservancy project.
Along the way, Yang Lin encountered three military cantonment sites, the so-called military cantonment sites, which were assigned to various regiments and camps, and then the department organized prisoners to carry out cantonment farming.
This time, there were more than 10,000 Manchurian and Mongolian Eight Banners, 50,000 Green Battalion soldiers and horses, and more than 20,000 forced laborers.
Just like the forced labor from the local area when the protagonist first crosses, most of the laborers who were forcibly captured were ordinary farmers in Sichuan and Shaanxi, and everyone had no power and no power, and those who were separated and ruined were forcibly taken to the barracks by the Tartars, one by one, they were originally from a bitter background, and of course they had empathy for these captives, and for those who were willing to go home, they were all given twenty catties of rations and two coins of silver, so that everyone could return to their hometowns in groups over the mountains and mountains, so as not to ruin their families.
Even so, because the Tartars occupy various passes, there are still more than 3,000 captured strong men who are unwilling to go back, and for these strong men who do not want to go back, the government will lend them grain and ploughing cattle for farming.
If the wind and rain are smooth, and the grain and cattle expenses owed to the government are paid off in one or two years, in a few years, life will be completely well-off.
Therefore, the enthusiasm of the people in Mintun and Guantun is quite high, and everyone is more motivated, and many people get up early and go dark in the hope of cultivating more wasteland and harvesting more.
Most of the people in the official camp are the people who were forcibly captured by the Tartars, and they were the displaced people collected by the government from all over the country, and the soldiers and horses of the captured green battalion helped the Tartars to kill ordinary people because of their help, and they were all under the supervision of the soldiers, which was the so-called military camp.
This time, a total of 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Green Battalion were captured, of which 2,000 were selected into the army, and the rest were scattered to all parts of Sichuan for military cantonment, often about 3,500 people in a county, and everyone carried out cantonment under the supervision of the army or the county yamen barracks.
50% of the income from the military cantonment goes to the prisoners themselves, while the other half goes to the government barracks and the army, so as to subsidize military supplies and reduce the burden on the local army.
Compared with Mintun and Guantun, the exploitation of Juntun is very large, a bit like a labor camp in the past, and a bit like a landlord's manor, these Juntun prisoners are completely tenant farmers of the landlord's family, and everyone's enthusiasm for labor is not very high, and many ordinary soldiers have a lot of complaints in their hearts.
Watching the carriage get off and withdraw along the way, Yang Lin felt when he would change this road into a gravel road, and when would he pave the stone ladder into a broad avenue that was convenient for the carriage to walk?
Looking at the main project of Dujiangyan composed of fish mouth, flying sand weir and treasure bottle mouth, Yang Lin was moved by the wisdom of the ancients.
But looking at the water of the Min River flowing through the fish mouth and flying sand weir, and looking at the river water left from the mouth of the treasure bottle to the CD) plain, Yang Lin suddenly had a strange idea, whether he could make better use of the river water flowing into the CD) plain.
Just like when I was a child, I saw that the next brigade built a 5,6-meter-high dam on the river, and built a small ditch next to it, and the water rushed on the shaft to drive the bearings to rotate quickly, so as to achieve the purpose of quickly crushing rice.
Don't underestimate this kind of technology, just like when I was a child, I saw a stone mill with rice at home, and I heard my grandfather say that it takes half a day to eat a bucket of rice every time, plus a lot of rice shells are not clean, which is very tooth-consuming, so many people in their fifties have lost their teeth all over their mouths, and they can't eat this, and they can't eat that.
Yang Lin, who knew that his specialty was limited, of course did not do the Dujiangyan project, as if he did not dare to move Dujiangyan when the development of civilization in the 21st century was so high.
Inspired by this, in order to guide irrigation, Yang Lin just asked people to build a few waterways in the precipitous places downstream of the water inlet, and then press the bearing, and impact the bearing through the water flow, and the bearing drove a rolling bearing of rice to quickly roll rice and wheat.
Most people are ignorant, and after talking for a long time, someone finally got the hang of it, isn't this a commonly used waterwheel? In the past, it was erected, but now it is laid flat at the bottom of the water outlet, waiting to be driven to reel the rice.
After seeing that someone understood, Yang Lin was also quite happy, everyone sat down to draw, and the craftsmen promised to cast according to the requirements, and if there were any problems that could not be solved, everyone would discuss and solve them.
Seeing that he finally had the opportunity to eat polished rice, Yang Lin was quite happy in his heart, of course, those who did not cross did not know the hardships of ancient life, and the square rice of the past was not clean at all.
The biggest advantage of being an official is that he doesn't need to bow down to everything, and decides what things to give money to arrange people for craftsmen and masters to build, and Yang Lin takes this opportunity to inspect various places.
From time to time on the road, we met some homeless people, everyone helped the old and the young to rush back from a distance, and saw many people crying on the ground in their hometown from a distance, and the old tears were all over the place.
There was a lot of discussion about the signs pointing to the traffic arteries, and many people couldn't believe that all this was true, which was really good for the displaced people.
All males are divided into 10 acres of paddy fields and 20 acres of dry land, and can choose to carry out official tun and private tun.
It can be said that the government provides cattle, grain seeds, and houses for lodging, and the people only need to contribute to the official settlement.
As long as the land is cultivated in the area allocated by the government, half of the tax will be levied in the first three years, and the tax will be collected normally after three years.
It is completely different about Juntun, most of them are participated by prisoners, Daxi troops, and local bandits and hooligans, and the harvest is divided equally with the government, but the ownership of the land in Juntun belongs to the government.
Whether it is Mintun, Guantun or Juntun, they are much more generous than in the past. Although Yang Lin's reputation for being light and thinly endowed has already spread, everyone still can't believe it when they see such a slogan.
When the people fled the famine, they packed up more gold and silver, collected the ancestral tablets on the road, and everyone had a little more money and two, and after seeing the decay of the CD), Yang Lin not only allocated food from all over the country to stabilize prices, but also distributed the captured buffalo and horses to the people of Tuntun, so many people chose Mintun and did not want to choose Juntun.
No, this day Yang Lin rode a horse to the ground 10 miles away, bent up his trouser sleeves, and came to the field to plant rice under the eyes of everyone, this is a strange story, although everyone says that farming and reading people, but in the feudal society, a governor, a general who commands tens of thousands of troops actually went to the field to plant rice, everyone felt incredible.
And those prisoners who participated in the tun farming, the soldiers who participated in the tun farming, one by one, admired it even more, Yang Lin stretched his waist, smiled and said to the CD) prefect Wang Guangxian next to him: "Wang Governor, tell the brothers that the daily training in the military camp is called training, and now everyone working in the field is also called training."
In this way, the brothers can know that our military salary is not easy to come by, the villagers have paid the imperial grain for frugality, we have military salary, and we are planting rice now, just to thank the villagers, everyone said, right? ”
When I heard it, I claimed that it was.
Yang Lin smiled and looked at everyone: "Oh, isn't the heavenly immortal match between Dong Yong and the Seven Fairies a good story for the ages?" Everyone, I changed this Tianxian match to a military and civilian match, do you think it's okay? ”
When everyone heard this, they all smiled.
Yang Lin immediately sang: "
Men and women in the world are pairs
Men and women weave good faces.
The existing Tartars invade the house,
Kill my parents and burn my house.
You want me to be a slave and a slave
After death, you have to see your ancestors with a rat's tail
To protect the family and home
You come to me as a soldier to farm
You are loyal to your country
Kill the enemy and make meritorious service to return home
I have worked hard for my country
Half of your military merits
You and I are like mandarin ducks,
Flying in the world
This is two days ago Yang Lin found a few people to arrange, after a lot of deliberation before the case, everyone saw Yang Lin singing loudly, and also sang together, although the lyrics are not the best, but compared to those mountain songs, it is much better than eighteen touches.
After a busy day, I felt sore on my back, drank a bowl of porridge in the farmhouse, and then returned to the city on horseback.
