Chapter 223: The Secret Message
The change of the Yunyang Health Station shocked the entire Huguang Xing Capital Division, and even the neighboring health centers of the surrounding provinces were alarmed. For a while, rumors spread, people panicked, and there was a restless atmosphere everywhere.
However, Huang Daozhou and Yang Tinglin won the first battle, and after achieving great success, they became more and more determined to rectify and clean up. At the request of the two, Liu Jun had no choice but to increase the number of battalions originally drawn to them to three battalions, and to increase the intensity and speed of cleaning up and rectifying.
This time, at the same time, the five guards of Xiangyangwei, Jingzhouwei, Jingzhou Youwei, Kuizhouwei, and Fuchengwei were carried out at the same time, and at the same time, six thousand-household offices, including the Qianhu Office of Junzhou and the Qianhu Office of Zhijiang, were also cleaned up and rectified. In order to be able to make rapid progress, this time Yang Tinglin listened to Liu Jun's advice.
At the same time as sending troops to the various guard posts, they also issued a public announcement to each guard station, saying that they would not be guilty of the previous accounts of the guards, and that all the officers should hand over the occupied tuntian and exempt the military households from their debts, then the rectification group would not be held accountable for their past crimes of occupying the land and embezzling ink, and they would even be able to keep their property except for the encroachment on the tuntian, including the money they had embezzled over the years.
At the same time that the soldiers and horses of the nine-headed bird were stationed in the guard, they also brought the heads of the beheaded military attachés of the Yunyang guard, and passed on the heads of the guards, just like when Xiong Tingbi was executed by the imperial court in Liaodong, and then passed the head of the nine sides.
On one side is a toast, and on the other side is a penalty drink.
On the one hand, it is to hand over the tuntian fields and exempt the military households from arrears, so that they can not be blamed for the past, and even preserve their property. On one side, there are nine-headed birds and horses waiting around the side.
In such a state, although there is a lot of unwillingness, the final rectification is still unstoppable.
One acre of tuntian was cleared and registered, and then the soldiers and soldiers of the military station were also registered, and finally reported to Liu Jun, Huang Daozhou and others.
"These people are honest." Huang Daozhou looked at the pages of numbers in front of him, his face full of joy.
"These people aren't going to be that honest." Liu Jun flipped through the report. This time, the other six houses of the five guards of the Huguang Xingdu Division were cleaned up, and a total of more than 1.5 million mu of tuntian fields were cleared, all of which were 240 steps and one mu of unified standards, and they were basically mature fields, not wasteland and mountainous land. "You don't know that when the nine-headed bird went down to Qingzhang Field, he received countless bribes, they wanted to bribe our Qingzhang soldiers, and then they wanted to try to hide the acres of fields, even by changing the size of the acres. Or replace mature fields with wasteland and mountainous land to continue to encroach on tuntian. ”
"These moths." Zodiac Zhou hated the way.
Yang Tinglin said with a smile, "But they were disappointed in the end, the soldiers of the Nine-Headed Bird are really the best military discipline I have ever seen." A lot of real money was placed in front of them, but they were not moved at all, and in the end not only refused, but also reported truthfully. ”
During the Wanli period, Zhang Juzheng cleared the land of the whole country, and many such frauds also occurred. Many landlords evaded rectification by paying bribes, then reforming the big ones and replacing them with the ones that were ripe. Continue to encroach on the fields.
But this time, the landlords' tried and tested methods failed.
"Actually, not all nine-headed birds are like this, and some have received gifts, but after all, they are only a few. The Hydra soldiers supervised each other, and the black sheep were quickly identified. I've cleaned up the rat droppings, forty sticks each, and then I've got nine birds.
"You don't have to be so harsh. It is inevitable that there will be times when mistakes are made, give them a chance to mend their ways. Zodiac Zhou persuaded, the military discipline of the nine-headed bird is so strict, Zodiac Zhou is really rare, and he can't help but help persuade at this time.
"To maintain good military discipline in an army, it is better to be strict than lenient. If there is no strict restraint of military discipline and they are always given a chance, then these people will have the mentality of luck in the future, and in the long run, there will be no military discipline anymore. The embankment of thousands of miles is destroyed in the anthill, and it must be prevented. ”
Liu Jun gave everyone a good treatment, so that the soldiers could train and fight with peace of mind, without having to think about other things such as raising their families. For those soldiers who received gifts, although they were just new recruits and made mistakes for a while, Liu Jun still chose to reform, just to let everyone know that he, Liu Jun, would never allow those situations to happen.
"More than 1.6 million acres, a total of more than 40,000 tunding, each ding tuntian 40 acres, divided into more than 2,000 tunzhuang."
This time, a total of 31,000 households were cleaned up, and the number of tuntian fields cleared out was far less than that of Yunyang Weilai. Last time, the First Guard and the Second Institute cleared out nearly 800,000 mu of tuntian, but this time, the Fifth Guard and Six Institutes only cleared out more than 1.6 million mu. In fact, a lot of fields in Xiangyang and other places have been allocated to the clan vassal kings, and most of those guards were set up when the country was founded, after more than 200 years, there are many fewer fields, far less than the Yunyang Guards who are only more than 100 years old.
In the end, Liu Jun and others had to change the number of tuntian fields to 40 mu of tun tun, and finally made up 40,000 tun tun to grant land.
Although it is not as much as what Yunyang Wei has cleaned up, it is not bad, more than 1.6 million, plus the previous 800,000, that is 2.4 million mu, and the annual rent is 2.4 million stones. Yunyang has 50,000 soldiers, which can be completely self-sufficient, and there is even a surplus. ”
Even if rice is converted from grain, there is generally a 70% rice yield, and 2.4 million stone of rice can also be converted into nearly 1.7 million stone. Even if a soldier's consumption is higher than that of ordinary people, six buckets of rice a month is enough, at most seven stones a year, 50,000 soldiers, and only 350,000 stones a year.
If you include the part consumed during the war, then if it were not for the long battle, the soldier's military ration that year would only be about 500,000 stone.
Even if the cleaned-up tuntian is reduced by some unexpected factors such as natural disasters, it can basically earn about 1.5 million stone meters that year, and after deducting 500,000 yuan, there will still be one million stone left.
"These handed over grain can be divided into three parts, supply, staying in the province, and supplying the army. For example, we rented 1.5 million stone of rice this year, 300,000 yuan was handed over to the imperial court, 400,000 yuan was reserved for local provincial capitals, prefectures and counties, and the remaining 800,000 yuan was reserved for Yunyang to supply the army. Of course, the specific situation is divided according to this proportion according to the actual rent collected in the current year. Liu Jun said.
He knew very well that as soon as the rent figure of 1.5 million stone of rice was reported, there would definitely be countless people staring at it. Although the tuntian was rectified by them, the emperor also said that the tuntian was rented to support the Yunyang army. But in reality, there will definitely be people who will fight this idea. It is impossible to monopolize it, so it is better to take the initiative to come up with a carve-up plan and share the benefits equally.
The reason why Liu Jun made it into three points is not that the Yunyang army and the imperial court are equally divided, but also because of the fact that the Yunyang government should also have some food in its hands, so that it will not be in the event of a disaster, so that he can only desperately send more and more to the people, and the people will become more and more bankrupt, for Liu Jun, he is actually planning to slowly turn Yunyang into his base camp, of course, he does not want the local turmoil and instability.
With some grain in the hands of the government, the burden on the people can be lighter, and the localities can be more stable. In the end, he can also benefit.
"Next, I want to rectify Qi Huang and other guards, but these guards do not belong to the Xingdu Division, but to the Huguang Capital Division, and our jurisdiction seems to be somewhat insufficient." The Zodiac Zhou is fighting more and more fiercely, but at this time there is a problem in front of everyone.
The six guards and eight institutes they rectified before all belonged to the Huguang Xingdu Division, that is, under the jurisdiction of Yunyang Fuzhi, but now although Qihuang and other places are also under the jurisdiction of Yunyang Fuzhi, the Wei Institute belongs to the Huguang Dusi, so in a certain way, these Weishu offices in Yunyang Fuzhi that do not belong to the Huguang Xingdu Division are actually not under the jurisdiction of Yunyang Fuzhi.
When Liu Jun and the others hesitated, Jingshi came.
It was not only the eunuchs sent by the emperor to Yunyang who came, but also several holy decrees.
The most important thing is that the Huguang Political Envoy Department was divided into two, and two political departments were set up in Hubei and Hunan, followed by Yunyang, a special administrative area across four provinces, which was abolished, and Yunyang Fuzhi was actually changed to Hubei Political Division, and Nanyang Mansion in Henan, Shangzhou and Xing'an Prefecture in Shaanxi, and Kuizhou Mansion in Sichuan were also officially changed to Hubei.
The newly established Hubei Buzheng Department is very different from Yunyang Fuzhi, but for Liu Jun and others, this is excellent news. The Huguang Xingdu Division, the Xingdu Left-behind Division, and the Huguang Metropolitan Division were all merged into the Hubei Metropolitan Division.
For Liu Jun and others, this means that they can continue to carry out the rectification and clean-up work.
"Congratulations, Admiral!" Director Wang Kun smiled at Liu Jun and congratulated him, this eunuch originally came with the appointment of Director Shenyang when he left Beijing, but several eunuchs took a lot of people with them when they left Beijing, and they were extremely swaggering along the way.
As a result, they had just arrived in Henan, but there were changes in the imperial court, Yunyang Fuzhi was abolished, and a new Hubei political envoy was established, and the two capitals and thirteen Cheng announced the political envoy department of the Ming Dynasty, which became two capitals and fourteen provinces. The name of their dispatch also changed, and they gathered the people and horses who came to Yunyang to deliver the message, and rushed all the way to Yunyang.
"Congratulations to Hou Ye on his promotion to the military gate, and the two towns of Huguang and Huguang!" Lu Weining, the eunuch governor in charge of supervision, also came over to congratulate him with a smile on his face.
This time, Beijing issued several holy decrees to Yunyang, and all the officials in Yunyang were highly praised, such as Governor Zhu Dadian, Inspector Huang Daozhou, and Yang Tinglin, deputy envoy of the supervising army, all of whom received silver rewards and titles, but they were not as heavy as Liu Jun's promotion.
Zhu Dadian was changed from the governor of Yunyang to the governor of Hubei, and he was still a governor, but after Liu Jun changed from the general army of Yunyang to the general army of Hubei, he also supervised the military affairs of Hubei and Hunan, and the prime minister trained troops in the two provinces, and also took care of food and salary, which is equivalent to the governor of the two provinces of Huguang and Guangzhou.
Zhu Dadian's heart was sour, full of envy and jealousy. After hearing this reward appointment, he was jealous, but he was also completely dead to Liu Jun in his heart, he knew that his old fox couldn't fight Liu Jun's nine-headed bird.
"Hou Ye, Your Majesty asked our family to send a message to Hou Ye, long live Lord Hou hopes that Hou Ye can immediately send troops to Jiangbei to suppress the bandits!" The eunuch who delivered the decree was a half-old eunuch, and after the public decree, he gave Liu Jun another message.
"Immediately?"
"Immediately!" (To be continued......)
