Chapter 614: Homecoming
As soon as the order decided by the Handan side was issued, the veteran general Lian Po immediately set about solving the refugee problem......
The Shangdang refugees in the camping camp near the border city were stunned one by one! Their group of refugees had to go to Yunzhong County, which was hundreds of miles away, and such an arrangement was really unacceptable!
"How? How did the refugees react? The old general Lian Po looked at his subordinates who had returned from the front, and said to each other!
"Back to the general, the refugees are all saying that Yunzhong County is still far away from home, and they all want to stay here, and after the Qin division retreats, it will be easy for them to continue to rush home......"
For such a result, Lian Po looked at Lu Buwei who came with him! I am afraid that it is not such a simple matter to let this group of Shangdang refugees rush to Yunzhong County!
"Well, that's so! Then I'll go and see it myself! After hearing the words of the soldiers, Lü Buwei bluntly went out from the tent......
Going away with Lu Buwei, the old general Lian Po is indispensable! When the two of them arrived at the tent outside, many of the refugees were weeping tears from the soldiers, hoping not to go to Yunzhong County......
After seeing this situation, Lian Po looked at Lu Buwei! Let's see what he can do to solve the current problem!
"Everyone, be still! Please listen to me, I am Lu Buwei, the secretary of Zhao State, and I am here for you to go to Yunzhong County! Lu Buwei walked out from Lian Po's side, and immediately revealed his identity in the face of the refugees!
As soon as they heard that Lü Buwei was the official in charge of where they were sent, the group of refugees bowed and said on the spot:
"Doctor, I don't want to leave my hometown, I just want to wait here for a few days, and after the Qin division retreats, we will rush back to Shangdang County......"
"Yes, my ancestors have been rooted here for generations, can I come back this time when I go to Yunzhong County?"
"Yes, yes! I don't want to rush to Yunzhong County......"
……
The following chattering and arguments kept going, so that Lu Buwei, who wanted to open his mouth to speak, spoke several times, but was interrupted! In the end, Lü Buwei shouted loudly to stop these enthusiastic refugees!
"Ladies and gentlemen, there is now a war going on in the land of Shangdang County, at least a few months or more than a few years, and you will definitely not be able to go back! In addition, no one can be sure whether the Shangdang County will be able to regain it from the hands of Qin Shi......"
When Lu Buwei said this, all the refugees in the room showed gloomy expressions! They really feel the pain of not being able to return home......
"Today's plan, you can only go to Yunzhong County. My king has an order, but those who go to Yunzhong County, regardless of men, women and children, can receive a piece of fertile land! ”
Lu Buwei's move is definitely to slap you in the face, and then give you a sweet date to taste! And after hearing Lü Buwei's words, all the Shangdang refugees fell into deep thought......
On the one hand, it is the land that gives you fertile land, and on the other hand, it is the homeland in dire straits! This group of refugees from the land of Shangdang County was also difficult to judge for a while......
In fact, this period was in the period of collapse of the slave society! Although the "Ida System" has been destroyed, it is not possible for people everywhere to get a share of the land......
Suddenly, someone says divide your land, and it's according to the head! Such a good thing naturally made the people in the land of Shangdang County a little moved......
Therefore, after Lü Buwei spoke, no one from the Shangdang refugees in the room continued to speak out and argue......
After seeing this situation, Lü Buwei continued: "Now that Qin Zhao is fighting in Shangdang County, even if you return to your homeland in the end, it is difficult to guarantee that Qin Shi will not come back!" And the land of Yunzhong County, where the land is fertile, and there is a new waterway built by our king, after a certain period, the land of Yunzhong County will be richer than the land of Shangdang County......"
Having land is good for everything, and the foundation for which you are fighting! Most of the refugees here are mainly women, and they look at the young children in their hands one by one, and their gloomy eyes suddenly reveal a warm look......
Even though they were destroyed here, the children under their knees did not deserve such consequences! As long as they go to Yunzhong County, then the next life will be a new beginning......
"Then, how much land can we give when we go to Yunzhong County? Is it really a free gift of land? ”
The person who asked the question was nothing more than an unkempt old woman, and behind her, a little boy of four or five years old looked at Lu Buwei with big eyes!
"It's true, as long as the Shangdang refugees who go to Yunzhong County with Dr. Ben, they can get a piece of fertile land! And the area of land obtained will never be less than that of a field! ”
The land of Yitian mentioned by Lü Buwei here is a name for the land area under the "well field system"! The square field of 100 steps long and wide is called a "field", and the acre of a field is 100 acres!
In "The Biography of Gu Liang: The Fifteenth Year of Xuangong", there is a saying: "The ancients are 300 steps away, and the name is Jingtian", "The Jingtian is 900 acres, and the public field is one." ”
As the name suggests, the "Ida System" divides the land into squares and is shaped like the character "Ida", so it is called "Idada". Under the "well field system", a well is divided into nine squares, and the surrounding eight fields are cultivated by eight households, which is called private field, and all the harvest of private fields belongs to the farmers; In the middle is the public land, which is cultivated by eight households, and all the income goes to the nobles of the feudal province.
They each kept the best part of it (i.e., the flat land near the river, with the mountains facing the sun in the background) in thousands, tens of thousands, or tens of thousands, called "public fields". Because of the large area of the public land, it was also called "Datian", which drove the slaves to cultivate it collectively!
And what Lü Buwei just said is that the land of Yitian is given! Most of them, the refugees from Shangdang County, have cultivated rented land, and now they can get a piece of land of their own, how can they not yearn for it?
"I'll ......"
The old woman who was asking in front of Lu Buwei thought about it for a while and decided to go directly! And as soon as she made a statement here, countless Shangdang refugees who were still waiting and watching spoke out one after another:
"Ah, I'll go too, this is a field of land!"
"Yes, I've been helping the lord's family farm for ten years in Shangdang, and I can finally have a piece of land of my own......"
……
Seeing that countless refugees came to express their attitudes, Lu Buwei stepped down! The purpose of his coming here this time has been accomplished!
Lian Po looked at Lu Buwei and solved the dilemma in front of him in a few words, and said with admiration: "He is worthy of the king's attention, and after a few words, he will solve the dilemma in front of him!" ”
"Haha, the general praised it falsely! All of this was specially instructed by Neishi before he came, and I, Lu Buwei, am just rumors! Lu Buwei said humbly!
Looking at the Shangdang refugees who enthusiastically signed up, Lu Buwei suddenly remembered something, and said busily: "Oh, by the way, General Lian, this time, the king asked me to say something to the general!" ”
As soon as he heard that it was what Zhao Wang said, Lian Po asked inseparably, "What's the matter?" ”
"The king said, let the general find the male among the refugees in Shangdang County and continue to serve for my Zhao State sergeant!"
"Haha, the doctor went back and told the king that I had let men of the right age enlist in the army early in the morning and serve in front of our army!"
"General, when the king intended, among the refugees of the Shangdang, the age of entry into the army should be lowered, and all men over the age of fifteen should be rushed!" Lu Buwei said bluntly!
"This ......" For King Zhao's proposal, Lian Po was a little hesitant! During the Warring States period, all countries were soldiers, and men were only enlisted in the "fu nationality" (enlistment army) at the age of seventeen, and they could not be exempted from military service until they were sixty years old. Now, King Zhao has lowered the age of "Fu", which is ......
"General, this time these refugees are going to the land of Yunzhong County, there are too many men, lest there be more trouble......" Lu Buwei faced Lian Po's hesitation, and immediately explained!
"Well, Lian Po received the order......" Hearing Lu Buwei's words, Lian Po was finally ordered to do it......
