For everything he did in Anton, Li Yu took the initiative to explain far more than his father and mother to ask about him. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

highlights Li Yu's youthful innocence and simplicity, after all, Li Yu is only thirteen years old, and age is the biggest cover in his heart.

Li Yu despised the ministers who participated in him with a childlike expression, saying that they were jealous of the virtuous and capable, and explained to Li Zhi and Empress Wu in a vivid way how he governed Andong after he led his army to quell the Goguryeo rebellion and fight against the Silla people.

He emphatically praised the advice of the governor of the palace, Shi Li Yuan, Sima Xue Jun and other civil officials of the Yan Palace, and raised food to govern the local area; Generals such as Xue Ne and Li Shangdan were able to fight well and were unmatched.

"It was with the assistance of these ministers that the child was able to pacify the Goguryeo rebels and deter Silla, otherwise he would never have dared to enter Andong with the young body of the son."

Li Yu was dumbfounded: "Father, to pacify Anton, Li Yuan, Xue Ne and other literary and martial arts are indispensable. Seeing that the New Year was approaching, because Anton had just decided, Silla was still eyeing him, and they did not go home for the New Year in order to stabilize the situation, and asked the eldest father to give rewards to the ministers who had made meritorious contributions to the country according to their merits. ”

"Hahaha, rest assured, such good ministers who have contributed to the country, I have already ordered the Zhongshu Province to agree on a reward according to the size of the meritorious service according to the document you sent earlier, and I will send an envoy to Anton to announce the decree and reward the meritorious soldiers after the year."

Li Yu was overjoyed in his heart, and his father's move was to recognize the civil and military ministers of the palace and the recruited soldiers who followed him to fight in Anton.

"I wonder what the eldest father thinks of the child's 'On the East Table of Public Security'?" Li Yu was still snuggled in the arms of Empress Wu, looking at his father expectantly and asked.

Li Zhi pondered, as far as Si Yang said in the table, from the Central Plains where there were many people and little land, the people who had no land and less land moved to Andong to the real border to consolidate Andong's policy. Although I agree with it in my heart, but the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the people of the world have suffered heavy losses, since the first emperor has been cultivating and resting, encouraging the world to gather so far, there are only more than 30 million people in the world. There is still a vast area in the land of Nuoda, which is sparsely populated.

Although he wanted to agree to the policy in his heart, the reality and the princes of the court would not agree.

Li Zhi was based on the fact that in the two years since the disaster, when the people were difficult to survive and the imperial court could not provide disaster relief, he acquiesced in Siyang's move, and although the Manchu civil and military had little to say, they did not interfere much.

Li Zhi shook his head helplessly in the hesitation of Li Yu's 'On Public Security'.

Li Yu was a little disappointed, but it was also expected.

Seeing that Si Yang in his arms was in a low mood, Empress Wu said with a smile: "Although the land of Andong was originally Huaxia, although it was occupied by Goguryeo for more than 300 years, there are still many Chinese people in the local area. ”

"Si Yang should be benevolent and righteous in governing the people, and you don't know which courtier's advice you listened to in Anton, and demoted a large number of local elites and captives who participated in the rebellion to slave labor, servants day and night. This is not a long-term solution, but a hidden danger. Li Zhi admonished.

"The child knows."

Li Yu responded in a somewhat depressed mood, but continued to ask unwillingly: "Father, you don't agree to immigrate to Shibian just because they are registered people, and it is related to the collection of taxes and land reclamation by the imperial court. If the child only moves the affected people in the affected states and counties, and the people in the world as slaves and slaves, is it permissible? ”

Seeing that his father wanted to benefit from this, Li Yu made persistent efforts and said: "The victims of the disaster cannot pay taxes to the imperial court, but they are easy to become displaced people and eventually affect local stability." Moving them to Andong not only solved the problem of the survival of the victims, but also used them to reclaim the land in Andong, and after a few years, they obtained countless fertile land to increase the taxes of the imperial court. And the slave Datang has never been recorded in the household registration, and it is owned by the families of the rich and the officials, and does not pay a penny or a meter for the imperial court. Some wealthy relatives even raised thousands of slaves to become local tyrants, and in the long run, it was not conducive to the imperial court's control of the localities. To avoid the wealthy and powerful accumulating slaves and gradually forming a trend of local separation, they did not promise to redeem most of their slaves from the government and move to Anton to be compiled as a citizen, so as to seek a hundred years of benefits for the imperial court. ”

Li Yu's words made Li Zhi and Empress Wu stunned, and after thinking about it, Si Yan's move was beneficial to the imperial court, and it added hundreds of thousands of people who paid taxes.

The Tang Dynasty still retained the remnants of slavery, and slaves were not counted in the household registration. In addition, the families of convicts were confiscated as slaves, and the slaves of the powerful, wealthy families, and wealthy families formed a large number of hidden household registrations that were not on the household register.

In addition, the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty, in order to avoid the war, the people who later escaped taxes and hid in the mountains.

In other words, the actual population of Datang is much larger than the registered population, and the number of people is estimated to be in the millions.

This point was in the Empress Wu after the emperor, the Khitan rebellion, the Tang army repeated defeats led to a shortage of troops, the Empress Wu ordered the recruitment of the world's officials and the people of the world slaves and brave people to redeem themselves into the army, as many as hundreds of thousands before and after.

In the end, Li Zhi nodded and agreed to Siyang's strategy, but Li Yu had to arrange how to move these people to Anton.

If it is a disaster victim, Li Yu recruits and volunteers to go, he still acquiesces as before. The displaced people who hid in the mountains could be recruited by Li Yu or ordered the local officials to arrest and forcibly move to Andong.

Among the slaves, in addition to the official slaves, Li Zhi could order the local government to transfer some of the official slaves to Li Yu's Anton Pioneer Group to Andong and organize them as people.

Most of the slaves in the world are owned by the families of the powerful and wealthy, whether it is the government or Li Yu to redeem them, it is difficult to afford the cost of redemption.

Li Zhi could only say that Si Yang figured out his own way.

"Father, why don't you promulgate a decree stipulating that all Chinese who are slaves in the Tang Dynasty voluntarily apply to the Anton Pioneer Group to go to Anton for reclamation, they can be exempted from slavery by the imperial court, and their master's family can compensate for Anton's land."

"This ......" Li Zhi was obviously moved, and the idea of exchanging a large amount of vacant land from Anton for the slaves of wealthy families was quite good, in fact, the imperial court had nothing to lose.

"Father, in addition to the heinous crimes, the criminals in the whole country are also handed over to me to deal with, right?"

Seeing that his father was moved by the immigration plan he really planned in his heart, Li Yu once again threw out the plan he had already thought of. Gather all the criminals in the country, form an army, and give them the opportunity to make meritorious contributions to become the advance team of colonial development, and clear the local land for Li Yu's colonial plan.

The criminals under the Tang Dynasty are not kind-hearted people, they are brave and ruthless, and most of them are wanted by the government for murders. Most of them belong to the typical people-scum-scum-scum category, and without the shackles of the law, they can simply be bold and do all kinds of evil. At the same time, they are also the best pioneers of a nation's foreign colonization.

You don't see that in the Age of Discovery, the main force of foreign colonization in the early days of European countries was all kinds of domestic criminals. Was it not the result of the tsar's drive by the tsar to annex the whole of Siberia to the east and become the largest country in the world's territory in the future, and the crime leaders led by a gang of thugs and bankrupt serfs to the east, burning and looting all the way?
