Laihu'er's face changed, and he hurriedly said: "Dashuai, this ......"

Yang Su waved his hand to stop Lai Hu'er from continuing: "Come to the general, this is a military discussion, everyone has the right to speak, listen to Wang join the army and finish speaking." ”

Laihu'er bowed his hand and retreated: "Yes." ”

Wang Huaqiang was secretly happy in his heart, Yang Su's statement was obviously beneficial to himself, but then Yang Su had to say that Yang Su was also satisfied, otherwise he would turn his face and treat himself for the crime of disturbing the morale of the army as Lai Hu'er said, and maybe he would cut himself directly.

So Wang Huaqiang carefully went through the words again in his heart before he said: "Dashuai, this rebellion in the south, to put it bluntly, is that those big sergeants who owned a lot of land and tenants in the Southern Dynasty were unwilling to lose their vested interests and incite the people to rise up and make trouble.

Therefore, by taking advantage of this southern rebellion, killing a group of these southern scholars who took the lead in making trouble can deter ill-intentioned people on the one hand, and on the other hand, after the death of these people, the fields will be returned to the state, and there will be a large amount of land that can be distributed.

Since the founding of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it has been more than 300 years since today, the isolation between the north and the south can not be bridged in one day, which also requires a large number of immigrants from the north to the south, and the southerners can be integrated.

At that time, the policy adopted by the Eastern Jin Dynasty court was not to seize the land of the southerners and forcibly give it to the northerners, but to make some kind of compromise and set aside a part of the territory of the southern clans, as the overseas Chinese counties of northern immigrants, such as Jingkou is called Nanxuzhou, and Guyu is called Nanyuzhou, which is how it came.

Recently, the general has been thinking about this issue, and if we want to completely solve the rebellion in the south, the key is to strengthen exchanges between the north and the south. This is also the reason why the army had to return north every time after the south was pacified, because the soldiers were reluctant to put down roots here, and the imperial court did not have enough policies to attract them.

Therefore, the general thought that after the culprit was eliminated this time, there would be a large number of ownerless fertile land, which could be implemented in Jiangnan according to the Juntian Law at the beginning of the emperor's ascension to the throne of our dynasty, and better conditions should be offered, such as 100 to 120 acres of land per ding, and 30 acres of mulberry and hemp fields. ”

Yang Jian's Juntian Law was formulated together with Gao Xi when the Sui Dynasty opened the country, and in the hometown of the Northern Dynasty, it was 80 acres of land for each Ding (adult male, 21 years old, and stopped after the age of 50), called Lutian, which returned to the state after death, and the people had no property rights, and 20 acres of Yongye Tian could be passed on to their descendants. In return to the state, each ding had to serve the country for one month of conscription (later changed to 20 days) every year, build cities and open rivers for the country, or serve as a soldier and a civilian man.

At that time, the population of the north reached more than 4 million households, nearly 20 million people, in order to make room for the people so much land, Yang Jian from the aristocracy and bureaucracy, the Yongye field of the prince of Yipin was only reduced to 100 hectares, the Yongye field of the first grade Jingguan was only 5 hectares, and each product was 50 acres, and the Yongye field assigned by Wang Huaqiang and his younger brother was only 2 acres last time.

In contrast, the laws and regulations of the Southern Dynasties were extremely lenient on these local scholars and powerful people, and the fields occupied by large families were often thousands of hectares, and some super families occupied hundreds of thousands of hectares of fertile land, compared with a large number of people in the Southern Dynasties who had no land to plant, and could only rely on these large families for generations to become tenants and tenants, and their descendants had to work for these large families in various fields, and the proportion of taxes paid was more than double that of the taxes handed over to the official families.

In Wang Huaqiang's view, the battle of Pingnan seems to be a counterinsurgency, but in fact it is this kind of production relations in the south that really needs to be pacified, although Yang Jian has issued an order not to levy taxes in Nanchen's hometown for ten years, but in the south, in addition to making people memorize the "Five Religions", he also asked officials from all over the country to measure the land, and prepared to implement the Juntian Law as in the north, which is the fundamental reason why the scholars in the south can not bear it anymore and incite the people to revolt.

In the past six months or so, Wang Huaqiang has already figured out this matter after analyzing and understanding the people's conditions in the southern and southern dynasties, as well as exploring the legal systems of the northern and southern dynasties.

Yang Su obviously also thought about this problem, after hearing Wang Huaqiang's words, his face softened a little, and his voice became softer: "Wang joined the army, do you know that the people of the Southern Dynasty have become accustomed to relying on these powerful people, and they only know that there are landlords, but they don't know that there is an official government, and you have destroyed the living habits of the people of the Southern Dynasty for hundreds of years, can they accept it?" Also, the soldiers of my army, are you so sure that you are willing to stay in the south? ”

Wang Huaqiang knew that he must be resolute now, Yang Su obviously also studied this, and it was to induce himself to explain the benefits to the generals, these generals only had military merits in their eyes, and the living standards and social order of the people of the Southern Dynasties had nothing to do with them, and to persuade them to agree with their views, the only way to give them real benefits was to give them real benefits.

So Wang Huaqiang smiled and said: "For the people in the south, you can kill those Haoqiang clans who instigated the uprising, and give their fields to these people, 80 acres of open land per person, give them visible benefits, plus ten years of rent free, naturally no one will rise up to make trouble."

As for the officers and soldiers of our army, their families are in the north, and they can leave a part of them to guard this place after the pacification of Jiangnan, and the conditions given can be opened to 100 or 120 temples and fields, and 30 to 40 acres of Yongye fields, which are also rent-free for ten years.

In the two or three hundred years since the north and the south were separated, communication between the two sides was a big problem, and the southerners regarded most of us in the north as monsters who drank blood and ate human flesh, and if we northerners could not live with them here for a few years for a long time and let them change this understanding, there would continue to be such rumors.

The last general is brave, after pacifying the south this time, presumably the marshal will leave some generals here for a long time, and the imperial court should also send some officials to take office here, this time there should not be a bicycle to come, each assassin will have a little hundreds, more than thousands of pro-soldiers, when the time comes, you can divide the land here for these people, arrange for them to marry and have children with local women, and stay in Jiangnan for a long time, so that as long as the term of one or two assassins expires, presumably Jiangnan will be completely pacified. ”

Laihu'er's pupils contracted suddenly, and he pointed at Wang Huaqiang, and his voice was raised an octave: "Wang joins the army, you are a quartermaster who doesn't understand anything, so you are here to make a big fuss, the generals' pro-army troops often have fields in the north, and many people already have families, you let them go to the south where they are not familiar with the land to open up the wasteland and farm, not to mention the problem of water and soil adaptation, even if they are willing to stay, what should they do if they stay in the fields of their families in the north?"

Also, even if the imperial court stays here and sends a general to temporarily control it, it is only a matter of one or two years, how can it be permanent here, even if you take 10,000 steps back, if you stay here for eight years and ten years as you said, you will always have to leave, and when these civil and military officials are gone, their pro-military troops have taken root here, how do you want them to go? What general can throw his own generations here? ”

This said to the hearts of everyone in the tent, many of the generals who went out this time are from the family of Guanlong who have been generals for generations, and everyone's personal guards are family slaves who have been handed down from their grandfathers, everyone came to Jiangnan to get promoted and make a fortune.

Laihu'er's provocation really worked, and the generals present glared at Wang Huaqiang angrily one by one, if it weren't for the handsome tent here, with Yang Su pressing, I'm afraid these people would have rushed up and scolded indiscriminately, and even let this quartermaster who didn't look so strong taste his own Great Sui Iron Fist.

Wang Huaqiang expected this reaction before he said this, he was not in a hurry, looked at Lai Hu'er with a smile, arched his hand, and said: "Come to the general, you may not have heard the meaning of the last general, if you have a family in the north, you can take your wife and children over, and if you don't want to take root here, you can also go and stay for two pennies, and if the court makes an order to let us stay here, then can you and I go?" ”
