As the old saltman said, the rain soon stopped that day. ※

In the next few days, Ji Ping was not idle, first the news of Guan Yu breaking the enemy came from Pujindu, and then two days later, the news of Xu Huang and Dian Wei breaking the enemy also came from Fenglingdu, Hebei County.

Since then, Guan Yu has been stationed in Puban County and Pujindu, Xu Huang has been stationed in Hebei County and Fenglingdu, and Dian Wei, who rushed to support, led the Tiger Battalion to retreat.

Ji Ping exterminated the stewards and soldiers of the Lintao Dong clan and the Wuwei Hu clan stationed in Yanchi on the same day, and easily seized the 40,000 stone grain, 200,000 yuan of money and 100,000 stone of salt stored by the two families, which they had looted everywhere and were going to be transported to Dong Zhuo in Guanzhong, but they were intercepted by Ji Ping.

In addition to the Dong family and the Hu family, there are also two local families in Hedong, the Wei family and the Fan family.

On that day, Ji Ping ordered Dian Wei to kill Wei Gu and Fan Xian, and collected their family soldiers, in order to prevent the two families from rebounding, Dian Wei came back and attacked the two dock forts and copied their family funds.

The Wei family and the Fan family are one of the most powerful families in Hedong County, especially the Wei family, who have been dealing in grain and salt for generations, and are the richest families in Hedong County, with a lot of grain.

With only these four families, Ji Ping obtained nearly 800,000 stone of grain, plus the storage of each county, which was enough to feed 100,000 people for half a year, alleviating the food shortage crisis after immigration.

This made Ji Ping breathe a sigh of relief.

In addition to 800,000 stone of grain, 6,000 catties of fine iron, 8 million in money, nearly 20,000 hidden tenant farmers and ordinary people, 100,000 mu of fertile land, and 400 head of cultivated cattle were also confiscated.

Among them, Ji Ping specially ordered the soldiers to dismantle the forts of the two houses, which was the beginning of his elimination of the power of the forts in Hedong County.

However, except for Wei Gu and Fan Xian's diehards. For the remaining thousands of clansmen of the Wei clan and the Fan clan, Ji Ping did not rush to kill them. Instead, they were left with enough food and 200,000 dollars for a year.

If the Wei clan and the Fan clan did not change, they would also be the people under his rule. He will leave them alive.

Such a move made those families and local Haoqiang, who were originally nervous and wait-and-see, breathe a sigh of relief.

It's just that for the rest of the Wei clan and the Fan clan, Ji Ping also skillfully used some means, he left the annual grain and 200,000 yuan, regardless of the original descendants, rich and poor, and far and near, all of them were evenly distributed to each family, breaking the distribution method that they had become accustomed to, rich and poor, making it difficult for them to form a group.

For the 800,000 stone grain and 8 million money he received, Ji Ping asked Lu Zhi to arrange soldiers to garrison Zhang Liao, Guan Yu, Xu Huang, Xun Di and other places for three months. All the remaining grain was stored in the granary of Anyi, which was kept for the military salary and relief of the people, and the money was deposited in the government treasury for land reclamation, canal digging and salt field construction.

The 6,000 catties of iron were taken over by the eunuchs of Shang Fangjian, and Anyi originally had an iron official organization and a set of smelting equipment, and after Ji Ping occupied Anyi, he naturally took over.

However, he didn't plan to use the 6,000 catties of iron to cast weapons, but to cast farm tools, and Ji Ping was determined to build Tuntian and Yanchi first. Otherwise, the follow-up will be powerless.

He ordered Bi Lan to be Shang Fangling, and several disciples taught by Bi Lan took the original blacksmith to take full responsibility for the creation of farm tools, and at the same time purchased ploughing cattle from all over the country. Prepare for Tuntian.

The food problem was temporarily solved, and militarily he completely controlled half of Hedong County south of the Fen River, and Ji Ping was not in a hurry to attack the Pingyang counties north of the Fen River. Instead, he began to implement his way of governance from the southern part of Hedong County.

He studied and pondered all night with Lu Zhi, Yuan Ji and Liu Bei summoned from Hanoi, and other subordinates, less than half a month. Various decrees were promulgated one by one.

The first decree was the military, which was the basis for Ji Ping's implementation of the Yiqiē decree. Without military strength, he may not even be able to keep Hedong County.

He ordered his subordinates, Zhang Liao, Guan Yu, Xun Di, and Duan Xuan, as well as Duan Jin, Gai Shun, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, Yang Feng, Shisun Meng, Zhang Yang, Xu Huang and other lieutenants, to strictly strengthen the training of soldiers, and formulated a drill code, which was very detailed.

Soldiers run and cross the country every day at dawn and dusk, mainly to exercise their physical fitness and running ability.

In the morning and in the afternoon, the formation drills and cavalry archery were carried out, mainly to practice the formation under the order of the banner and drum, and the coordination of the arms in the battle, including siege and field battles, and the specific items were reasonably deployed and arranged by the respective generals, but the order of the banner and drum was unified by the whole army, so as to maintain the command of the battle formation after the generals were killed or rotated.

The time at midday, noon and after dark is mainly for eating, learning military rules, reciting military discipline and resting.

In the early afternoon, he went to the county and township where he was located to help the people and the elderly, the weak, the lonely and the widow to do some work such as carrying water and sweeping the floor, so as to bring the relationship between the military and the people closer.

Considering the heavy training, Ji Ping arranged three days of rest and family leave for the soldiers every month, which were taken in rotation and cancelled during wartime.

At the same time, in order to encourage young and strong people to join the army enthusiastically and encourage soldiers to fight bravely to kill the enemy, General Ji Ping's salary was raised by 30 percent, and the taxes of military households were reduced.

At the same time as the treatment of soldiers and their families was improved, Ji Ping raised the qualifications for joining the army, and all the new recruits who failed to pass the three-month drill and did not have any skills were sent to their hometowns to continue farming, or served as patrols and guards for the county government and the county government.

At the same time, Ji Ping strictly affirmed the military order of "seven prohibitions and seven killings", and those who violated it were killed, and those who escaped from the battle were canceled from the preferential tax policy for their families.

What he wants to train is elite soldiers, elite soldiers who can be controlled, and elite soldiers who can gallop vertically and horizontally, rather than redundant and chaotic soldiers.

The second decree is to organize the households and the people, stipulating that the people under the rule of the county, whether they are farmers and businessmen, officials and poor people, must be registered in the state household register, written by the living and cut by the dead, and the name, age, place of origin, identity, appearance, land, family property, etc.

There are three types of accounts, main accounts, tun accounts and customers.

The main households are those who have land and houses, mainly including the rich and powerful and the common people with land.

Tunhu is the people of Tuntian.

The customers are those tenant farmers who have no land and are dependent on the powerful, that is, the land of those tenants, the land of people. He who receives the land of men, and who ploughs it.

The main household and the tun household shall pay the tax in accordance with the relevant provisions of their respective taxation regulations. The customer pays the lease to the dependent Haoqiang, and then the dependent Haoqiang pays the tax to the state on behalf of the dependent Haoqiang.

Organizing households has always been the most difficult thing to do. Especially at present, the situation of strong and strong people is rising, the forts and docks are contiguous, and the situation of concealing the household registration is extremely strict, in this regard, Ji Ping has taken a two-pronged approach and adopted some incentives and punishments.

Previously, he ordered the reduction and exemption of poll taxes such as oral and arithmetic taxes, and paying taxes on land was regarded as a means.

Those tenant farmers who could not afford to pay the heavy poll tax and had voluntarily attached themselves to the Haoqiang family are afraid that many of them will automatically leave Haoqiang. After all, once the poll tax is reduced, in comparison, Haoqiang's exploitation of them is probably heavier than the field tax collected by Ji Ping.

In addition, in order to encourage the people to declare to the state independently, Ji Ping deliberately improved the rights of the people, in addition to the most basic rights, gave the people the right to study and be officials.

This right seems simple in later generations, but it is definitely a very important right on the occasion of the Two Han Dynasty, because in the Two Han Dynasty. Only the "officials" have the right to be officials.

There are several criteria for the officials, one is that the occupation and identity they are engaged in are not the objects of the state's suppression or crackdown, such as the seven branches of the merchants, including the merchants and their descendants, and the households of medicine, engineering, witchcraft, and divination. does not have the right to be an official, and the second is to have the amount of property above the middle family, which was 100,000 in the early Han Dynasty. Emperor Jing adjusted it to 40,000, and there were many changes later.

In a word. The civil servants were a relatively wealthy class that not only owned land. Many of the families of officials also had slaves and maids, who were the main objects of the state's granting of land, knighthood, and inspection and appointment of officials, as well as the main bearers of taxes and forced labor.

The ordinary poor people did not have the right to study and serve as officials, and now Ji Ping gave them these rights, which not only encouraged the people to make up households, but also a beginning for him to break the monopoly bureaucratic system of the family and prepare for the next imperial examination.

These are all incentives, as long as the people make up their households, whether they are the main households, the tun households or the customers, the rights and status are equal.

Instead of having the right to study and serve as officials, the people in each county, county, and township are "compared to the people by the households" in August every year, that is, when the household registration is verified, once there are people who have left their homes and have no households, they must be severely punished, and those who deliberately and forcibly conceal their household registration must also be severely punished.

Wealthy families and families who hide more than 10 households should enter their homes and search them, pay fines according to the circumstances, and even exterminate their families if they hide too large their household registrations.

When Ji Ping proposed this punishment system, Lu Zhi, Yuan Ji, Cui Jun and Liu Bei were all opposed, they thought that once this decree was issued, they were afraid that they would immediately offend the world's families, but Ji Ping insisted on implementing it.

The household registration system is the foundation of the country, whether the household registration system can be thoroughly implemented, and often determines the rise and fall of a dynasty, he does not object to the use of tenant farmers and doormen by the big families, but there is a premise, that is, these tenant farmers and doormen must be registered and pay taxes in the state.

If there is a family under his rule who insists on going his own way, and tries to hide his household registration as before, hide in the fort, become his own family, and do not submit to the control of the state, then don't blame him for being ruthless!

Facts have proven that the promulgation of a government decree will inevitably be met with resistance from vested interest groups.

As soon as the decree was issued, the officials of the counties and townships either wrote to the officials or responded passively, and many officials disobeyed the law and delayed the work for various reasons, and in some places the powerful and powerful secretly colluded with the bandits and robbers to make trouble in the localities in order to show their resistance.

Ji Ping unceremoniously showed his fangs at this time.

He ordered the Tiger Battalion and the Shi'a Shadow Division to investigate everywhere, and directly brought some officials who disobeyed orders or disobeyed the yang to Anyi and put them in prison, and directly beheaded some officials who exploited the place and oppressed the people on weekdays, including some county orders and county magistrates, and sent them to the counties, which really deterred those officials who were still disobeying the yang and yin.

Ji Ping also arranged for some capable people in the Lu Zhi, Yuan Ji and Cui Jun clans to fill the vacant official positions, and promoted some low-level officials who dared to do things, and carried out a major blood exchange.

In particular, he now has a county official Jia Kui under Lu Zhi, although he was born poor and is only eighteen years old, only a little older than him, but he is quite capable, so he directly appointed Jia Kui as the county magistrate of Jiangyi, making him the ruler of the party, and also making many low-level officials look sideways.

In this way, the official pass was cleared.

As for those big and small heroes who secretly colluded with and supported the bandits and robbers, with the combat power of Dian Wei and the Tiger Battalion, exterminating the bandits and attacking the fort they thought were strong, it was only a matter of moments.

Ji Ping's bloody and ruthless methods really shocked the Haoqiang and the family of Hedong County, and after Lu Zhi and Yuan Ji came forward to negotiate, the Hedong Liu family, the largest family in the local area, and the Hedong Wei family, another ancestor of Wei Wei, first released the tenant farmers who were willing to leave their families, and the remaining tenant farmers were all reorganized.

As for the famous Hedong Pei family in later generations, it was just a small family that had not been developed at this time, and it soon organized a small number of tenant farmers.

For these attached families, Ji Ping was not stingy, and appointed Wei Qian, the head of the Wei family, as the county commander of the Yi family, and the head of the Liu family as the county commander of Hebei, and Pei Mao, the head of the Pei family, served in Chang'an, and Ji Ping appointed his son Pei Qian as the magistrate of Huize County.

The compromise of the Liu, Wei and Pei clans in Hedong broke the psychological defense line of other local tyrants, and in less than half a month, the tycoons in the southern counties and townships of Hedong County compromised one after another and organized the tenant farmers into households.

In this way, Qi Min took the lead in completing it under Ji Ping's strategy of combining civil and military use. (To be continued!)
