After finishing these affairs, in the blink of an eye, there was not much time left in the first year of Chongzhen, and it entered the middle of December. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At this time, although the southwest, northwest, and even southeast Zhejiang and other places of the Ming Dynasty were still in turmoil, the Beizhili Prefectures where the Ming Dynasty Jingshi was located ushered in a rare stable and peaceful atmosphere.

The purging of the Gyeongshi nobles and the abolition of the Gyeonggi Guards have been going on for more than a month in the Beizhili Prefectures, and now they have come to an end.

The former Chengguo Mansion, Yangwu Marquis Mansion, Funing Marquis Mansion, Linhuai Marquis Mansion, Xiangcheng Bo Mansion, etc., a total of 21 Jingshi Marquis Mansions, have been seized and raided, in addition to the death or beheading of these Princes, the rest of nearly 40,000 people of all kinds have been confiscated and exiled.

Some were escorted to Saibei, such as Rehebao, Balihan, and Sanzata, some were escorted to Dengzhou, and then transferred to Yingzhou Tunken, and many people were exiled to Dongfan, Qiongzhou, and even served in front of the Yungui army.

Drive all these vampires and parasites that were originally parasitic on the body of the Ming Jingshi out of the Jingshi, whether they are the immediate collateral relatives of the guilty nobles or the domestic slaves, and all of them will be exiled to the remote wilderness or outside the Saiwai, on the one hand, it can reduce the useless population of the Jingshi, reduce the pressure on the food supply of the Jingshi, and on the other hand, it can also enrich the newly opened territory of the imperial court.

Although these people are all slaves of the families of criminals, they are Han Chinese after all, and of course they are much more valuable than those remote and wild natives.

And those marquis and uncles who were not robbed of their families have suddenly become a lot more obedient, and they have learned the practice of the Dingguo Mansion, and sold the land of the guard house that was annexed by their fathers and grandparents when they were in power at a low price, and they have also learned to be a man with their tails between their legs, and they will no longer be as arrogant and lawless as in the past.

All of a sudden, whether it was in the city of Gyeongshi or in Gyeonggi Prefecture, the atmosphere and scene changed, and the original scene of noble and wealthy families and granges and wealthy families and slaves was rampant can no longer be seen.

What pedestrians see is a new scene of erecting monuments and demarcating boundaries and dividing fields and land.

Except for some of the officials of the 1,000 and 100 households of the guard who decided to stay in the system and continue to serve in the army, and then were ordered to go to the hometown of Yingju and Xingju Zhuwei, most of the other guards chose to take off their military registration and change to civilian households.

Now, these people, along with the original guards and military households in Gyeonggi, have been allocated their own land.

Moreover, some of them also used the Chongzhen silver dollars that were reissued when they were registered before, and bought the military fields that were previously occupied by the noble families who had not been raided.

These military fields will no longer be public land in the future, and although they will not be exempted from being granted private land in the future, these former military households who have received a share of the military land are still very happy.

After all, although it was exempted before, the benefits were all taken up by the noble family, and it had nothing to do with themselves, although they now need to pay the so-called public grain, but the land is their own after all, and the public grain is much less than the rent handed over to those noble families before.

Ten acres of land in Dingkou, according to the current yield of planting sweet potatoes, potatoes and stick grains, is enough for a family of five to eat. If there are two adult men in this family, then it is twenty acres, as long as you are not afraid of hard work, you can have more than enough food and clothing in a year.

In addition, in the land of Gyeonggi today, there are all kinds of industrial and mining workshops, and the slightly high-end iron smelting factories, gun factories, gunpowder factories, and mints are not easy to enter, while the rest of the coal mines, iron mines, lime mines, coke factories, charcoal factories, cement factories, brick factories, etc., are not thresholds, as long as you have the strength, you can earn a job there.

And those who sold the illegally acquired land at a super low price, and since then have no land rent income, it seems that they have quickly found another way to make money.

That is to invest in these industrial and mining workshops, such as Tian Guo, the father of Li Feitian, who was born as a businessman and has a lot of business acumen, Tian Guozhan Tian Hongyu, and now through his daughter, from the hands of his son-in-law, he has obtained the exclusive right to manufacture and sell the royal four-wheeled carriage, and has united several wealthy noble families to choose land and build factories, and is bent on selling four-wheeled carriages to all parts of the north and south.

And Emperor Chongzhen's other miser father-in-law, Empress Zhou's father Jiading Bo Zhou Kui, has long seen the needle, and several other Xungui families who took the initiative to come to the door to join forces to invest in the construction of several coke plants, and now under the idea of a cement plant, mobilize their queen daughters to follow the Lifei Tian family, and want to get the new cement concrete firing formula.

In response to these new circumstances, the Chongzhen Emperor himself is of course optimistic about the success of the situation, and it is a thing worthy of encouragement for the relatives and nobles to divert their money and energy from the land and learn from the rich merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang to invest in industry, mining, and handicrafts.

As for the scope of Beizhili, other places other than Shuntianfu, Jizhou Mansion, and Yongping Mansion, such as Baoding Mansion and Hejian Mansion, as well as Lu Xiangsheng's Daimyo of Bingbeidao, Shunde, and Guangping, the reform of the guard house is also in full swing.

The system of guards in these places has already been in vain, and now there is a precedent for the emperor to kill the corrupt and desecrated nobles in Beijing and strictly implement the reform of the guard, plus an iron-fisted figure like Lu Xiangsheng, it is not difficult to implement.

Today's Lu Xiang has been promoted to the prefect of the Daimyo's Mansion, and also serves as the military envoy of the Daimyo, Shunde, and Guangping Prefectures, and has been recruiting people for nearly a year in the three southern prefectures of Beizhili, and the new army he has trained, that is, the "Tianxiong Battalion" named by the emperor himself, has already become an army.

Moreover, this Tianxiong battalion was also fully equipped with the ordnance and firearms eliminated by the three major battalions of the Beijing Division, especially the Shenji Battalion.

Although Chongzhen's current output is not enough to equip the Shenji Battalion and the first town of the new army, the emperor still sent 500 poles to Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Battalion, and ordered him to equip it with the Tianxiong Battalion led by his younger brother Lu Xiangguan.

Historically, Lu Xiangsheng was besieged in battle with the Manchu army in the place of Julu in Beizhili, and then died in battle.

Although Lu Xiangsheng was born as a literati jinshi, he unexpectedly has excellent martial arts, especially fine cavalry and archery, and is good at making big swords.

It is precisely because of this that Lu Xiangsheng led the troops with literati, but he was still deeply loved by the battalion sergeants, and later the thousands of Tianxiong soldiers he brought were besieged by tens of thousands of Manchu Qing troops in Julu County, Shunde Prefecture, Beizhili, even if the artillery was exhausted in the end, there were no reinforcements, and they did not surrender, and almost all of them died with Lu Xiangsheng.

The Tianxiong army in the original time and space, so it was able to maintain such a strong morale, which was directly related to Lu Xiangsheng's own method of governing the army by leading by example and taking the lead in everything.

After Lu Xiangsheng became the military garrison of the three prefectures, he quickly recognized the fact that the armament of the Beizhili Guard was slack, and immediately started a new stove, recruiting tens of thousands of young and strong people from among the hungry people who came to recruit Tuntian.

In May and June, taking advantage of the slack season after the cultivation was completed, from among the tens of thousands of young and strong, in accordance with the emperor's method of establishment and training of the Tianxiong battalion, the best of the best were selected, and 5,000 people were selected, which was organized into the Tianxiong battalion more than a year earlier than in history, and the remaining 5,000 people were also used as supernumerary reserves of the Tianxiong battalion.

For Lu Xiangsheng's training of the Tianxiong Battalion, of course, this Chongzhen Emperor is of course fully supportive, in addition to giving him a full military salary of 20 taels of silver per year per person in advance, he also selected a few from the military attachés who graduated from the martial arts hall in October.

Including the recently graduated wave of martial artists, there are also a few people who are going to be arranged by the emperor to go to the Tianxiong camp.

This is not to say that the current Emperor Chongzhen does not trust Lu Xiangsheng, but Lu Xiangsheng took the initiative to ask for it in order to show his heart to the imperial court.

Lu Xiangsheng, a humanistic jinshi, is now in the name of the daimyo prefect and the military envoy of the three prefectures, and has organized a Tianxiong battalion with a number of 5,000 people, so that the ministers and local officials of the central government and the central government will not have doubts.

Therefore, since he recruited tens of thousands of homeless young people to start training, officials in Shunde Mansion, Guangping Mansion and even Daimyo's Mansion have continuously written to the imperial court to accuse Lu Xiangsheng, such as indiscriminately opening the barren land of the guard, forcibly seizing the land of the family, destroying the old route of the Yellow River, and other various crimes have come one after another.
