Chapter 86: The Journey in the Army (5)
In this time and space, there are yeoman farmers and wage farmers.
Although they are all peasants, their lives are very different, one is relatively free, and the other is not free.
However, yeoman farmers were the main source of tax revenue for the Han regime, and they were the main bearers of military service, and the proportion of yeoman peasants determined the strength and weakness of the Han Dynasty!
At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the traverser Wang Mang reformed the ancient system, implementing the Wang Tian system (land state ownership), private ownership system (no buying and selling of slaves and maids, eliminating slavery), and the Wujun Six Officials system (the ancient version of the planned economy: assessing prices and regulating the market), etc., with the intention of destroying the interests of the Shizu group and rebuilding the homesteaders system.
Once it comes to the interests of the magnates, Wang Mang instantly changed from "the reincarnation of the Duke of Zhou" to "usurping the Han State ~ thief", reigning for 16 years, and also frantically fighting with the world's magnates for 16 years, and finally couldn't resist Liu Xiu, the son of the plane, and was killed in failure.
And Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu, with the help of the power of the world, vigorously reused the world, so that he could quickly dominate the world, but the disadvantage is that the world's powerful are like clouds, the imperial power is sidelined, and the people are reduced to more than half of the employees.
In order to solve the problem of land annexation in the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu ordered all counties to measure land and verify household registration in the fifteenth year of Jianwu, as a correction of land reclamation, population and taxation, but it caused a rebellion from powerful surnames in various places.
"Qing, Xu, You, and Hebei are especially felt!"
"The surname of the county and the commander of the army are all together!"
This is still fifteen years after Guangwu dominated the world······
In the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he did not dare to do it because of the obstruction of the military class, and fifteen years later, Emperor Guangwu made a move against the local tyrants in the world, but it still attracted a rebellion in the world!
At this moment, Liu Xie thought of these things, his little face turned white, I came through it, do I have to be like the ancestors, do I have to be like the ancestors, and do all kinds of grace to the world, and make half of the people in the world slaves!!
With a blue face, Liu Xie summoned Xiao Yi: "Prepare a set of plainclothes for me, I want to go out on patrol in microclothes!" ”
If you want to understand the people's livelihood and suffering, you must go deep into the grassroots, I can't be like Nalu Aigong, born in the deep palace, long in the hands of women, I don't know sorrow, I don't know worry, I don't know labor, I don't know fear, I don't know danger!
After changing his clothes, Liu Xie turned over and got out of the car, summoned Zhang Liao, who had taken off his armor and was wearing civilian clothes, and other pro-soldiers, and came to a farmhouse compound, where he saw an old man basking in the sun leisurely.
When I walked in, it was an ancient old man holding a scepter, his face was pale, but he was full of energy.
"I'm bothered, but I have something to ask, I hope the old birthday star can tell me bluntly!"
The old man opened his slightly squinted eyes, looked at the plump and jade-like young man in front of him, looked at the dozens of brave men with him, knew that this was a nobleman, and hurriedly said: "What questions does the son have, please tell me directly?" ”
"Excuse me!" Liu Xie bent down and bowed, then walked to a stone pier next to him, regardless of whether it was dirty, and bent down to sit.
glared at the old man Xun Yue who wanted to follow, and waved his hand to repel Xun You and Zhang Liao, because what happened next was not known to them, and it was not visible in the history books and passed on to future generations.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Xie asked, "I heard that the Son of Heaven has released grain, and every household has a burden, why do you see the people who have migrated westward suffering?" ”
"A load of grain can feed each family for a few months, but after a few months, when there is no land, they will go hungry."
When the old man talked about today, the old man's face was full of joy, and then he hung his head and sighed: "Today, he loves the people like a son, but there are traitors in the court, and there is nothing to be done!" ”
"Who knows that the Son of Heaven will not grant land?" Liu Xie threw a bombshell.
Grant the field! When the old man heard this, a clever man got up, stared at Liu Xie with his eyes, and said: "For hundreds of years, since Gaozu gave the field, no Han family emperor dared to do this!" ”
"Back then, Emperor Guangwu was eloquent and strategic, and he only dared to do the field, but he still attracted a rebellion in the four states!"
"Today, even if you have the heart, you are powerless. Forget it, we haven't thought about giving land all these years! The old man said, sighing weakly with his eyes.
"The vicissitudes of heaven and earth have been hundreds of years, who can say clearly?" Liu Xie's eyes were determined, and he seemed to have made up his mind: "Look at the old birthday star, he is also a reasonable person, and there is still a question below." What is the geometry of the family here? How much do rich businessmen have? What is the geometry of hired farmers? ”
The old man scratched his gray silver hair, thought for a while, and said, "This son's question is difficult for the old man to answer for a while. ”
"But it's a rough idea!"
"The people of the family here ran a batch a year ago, and another batch ran a month ago, and now it is estimated that there is not much left."
"And the land of the family was left to local relatives, but there was no land deed!" The old man said the word "Tian Qi" very much.
"Most of the wealthy businessmen are engaged in the business of buying and selling, and they have been running around all these years, and I don't know how many?"
Then he said with a sad expression: "The life of a farmer can still be lived, but the farmer is bad!" I was bullied hard, and I didn't have a way to say it~~~"
The old man said so much, Liu Xie only heard one sentence, the family ran away, and Tian Qi was also taken away!
That's enough!!
"Thank you to the old birthday star for speaking out, and please tell those people who have moved west, stabilize for the time being, don't sign a contract, and have their own fertile land to cultivate in the future!"
Then, laughing, he vomited the depression in his heart and left: "I am gone!" ”
I'm gone!! I ······
After hearing this, the old man was still sitting, and quickly got up and bowed and worshipped, but was supported by the Son of Heaven.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, no one will sign those deeds of sale in the next few months! After all, there is food for the time being, but after a few months, the family is in difficulty, and I am afraid that someone will go to work as a servant farmer whose life is cheaper than a dog. ”
The Son of Heaven helped the old man back to his seat, and then said goodbye: "Thank you for reminding the old birthday star, I will not let the people be wronged!" ”
The policy of granting the field starts today!
"Hah! Ha ha!! Ha ha!!! ”
The Son of Heaven laughed wildly, strode out of the farmhouse compound, and the old man on the side retreated from everyone, trembling in the direction where the Son of Heaven went, kneeling three times and knocking nine times. Heaven is immortal!!
When I returned to the refugee place, I saw that Zhao Dafu, a tyrant in a brocade robe, had a black circle on one eye, and he had obviously been beaten, and the gorgeous clothes on his body were also torn, and the difference between before and after gave people an extremely strong visual impact.
Pulled a person over and asked, "Why is that guy the way it is now?" ”
The man looked at the boy in front of him, and replied: "Xiao Langjun doesn't know, that guy fell in love with a girl from another family, wanted to flirt, and was beaten hard." ”
"Oh, then why doesn't this guy get revenge? Why don't you report to the authorities? Liu Xie was slightly surprised.
In later generations, being able to be molested by local tyrants is something that many girls dream of. How much green tea was there back then, but while yelling at the local tyrant to hurry up and insert it~ I don't want to stop······
"How dare he retaliate, these refugees all moved west from village to village, provoking one person is like provoking a thousand; Besides, the local Duan County Shou has a lot of rejection of the family, and if he sues the Taishou Mansion, this guy is not as simple as being cut down, and he will be held accountable! ”
Liu Xie's heart was settled, and he put down the falling stone: "Thank you little brother for telling me!" ”
Returning to the dragon chariot, Liu Xie sighed in his heart: Han Cheng first Qin Yuxu, righteousness is not humiliated!
Han, because he is not far from ancient times, is simple and upright in nature.
It is a serious and serious people, with a true belief in dignity, loyalty, and duty, and even art contains a simple and atmospheric beauty.
The so-called Han Dynasty, the Son of Heaven has the responsibility of protecting the people and the country, the ministers have the righteousness of not dishonoring their mission, and the people have the heart of loyalty to the king and serving the country.
The hesitation of a tiger is not as good as the sting of a bee; The slenderness of the horse, not as good as the rest of the horse; Meng Ben's fox is suspicious, not as good as the mediocre man.
Hearing that there were immortals on the vast sea, the fleet of the Han Dynasty pulled anchor and sailed away, and even the Emperor of the Han Dynasty sailed on the waves several times.
Hearing that there were horses, wealth, and civilization in the far west, the people of the Han Dynasty continued to cross the endless mountains and deserts, and only then did Zhang Qian chisel the Western Regions for the famous feat of the ages.
Hearing that starting from Bashu, it can lead to the body poison and the Western Regions, the envoys, troops and merchants of the Han Dynasty crossed the mountains and mountains, and marched step by step with the tropical miasma on their heads, swallowing and Lan, descending to the Dian Kingdom, setting seven counties, and expanding the land for thousands of miles.
Hearing that in the far west, there was a country called Daqin, so Gan Ying made an arduous trek to the Persian Gulf, and the Han fleet sailed all the way to present-day India and Sri Lanka.
This is the big man, this is the fierce Han style! A spirit that conquers what you hear and see, and brute force that never gives up until you reach your goal!
You don't see it, the end of the Han Dynasty, the weak crown is the captive, please be long-tasseled; You don't see, Ban Dingyuan, the peerless light cavalry urges the battle clouds!
Chen Tang wrote to Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty: "Those who commit strong men will be punished even if they are far away!" ”
General Fubo Ma Yuan said: "The man should die in the border field, and bury his ears with a horse leather wrapper." ”
The destitute and destitute still have a sharp sword, "go out of the east gate, and do not return; Come to the beginning, sad and sad. There is no bucket of rice storage in Anzhong, and there is no hanging clothes on the shelf. Draw the sword and go to the east gate, and the mother in the house is holding her clothes and crying. ”
This is the heroic style of the Han Dynasty, how can it be because of the rebellion of the Three Kingdoms, and become the demeanor of the Wei and Jin dynasties; and then from the five chaotic flowers, to the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, timely fun, indulgence in sensuality, the absurdity of the world!
But! If I follow the example of our ancestors, with the help of the power of the world, I will dominate the world! And then put an end to the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms!
Correct! But half of the people of the world are still slaves, and the spirit of humility will flourish!
What else can Hermes-Epitek talk about?
How is the Han style still the same?
Thinking of this, Liu Xie clasped his hands tightly, raised his arms and shouted in his heart: In this life, I want to protect this strong national soul!!
