Chapter 175: The Collapse of the Song Dynasty
At the time of the expansion of the territory, Daliang Qianzhuang was also set up in various state capitals, and the people could save money for free, or mortgage money, with a monthly interest rate of one percent. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The land was divided equally, and the old dilapidated households had land, but many of them had no money to buy farm tools, and some even couldn't afford seeds.
The establishment of Daliang Qianzhuang gave the people a place to borrow, and the interest rate of Qianzhuang was much lower than that of the people, and the people were naturally happy.
The establishment of Daliang Qianzhuang was also praised by scholars, this law was lower than Wang Anshi's Qingmiao loan interest rate, and Daliang Qianzhuang was clearly positioned as a business name, and had nothing to do with the performance of local officials, but local officials had to supervise the operation of Qianzhuang, so that local officials would not force the people to borrow money for the sake of political performance as Wang Anshi did when he changed the law.
Although there is no interest on saving money, with Shi Jin's prestige, there are still many people who go to the money bank to save money, especially those who are in the army, under the influence of the officers from Liangshan, the soldiers are used to saving their salaries and silver in the bank.
The money obtained by Daliang by killing the corrupt officials and gentry of the Song Dynasty no longer has to be pressed into the treasury, and more importantly, it gives Daliang a new source of finance.
Tax exemption for a year can certainly allow the people to recuperate, but it is also a test for the imperial court.
Daliang, like the Song Dynasty, implemented official management of salt and iron wine, and the output of salt solution in Hedong and pig iron in Hebei far exceeded the domestic needs of Daliang, and the burning knife wine brewed by the imperial court was exported to Liao and Jin.
The land in Shandong and Hebei is also very fertile, although it cannot supply the world, but it is enough for the girder to be self-sufficient.
After the land is divided equally, the girder does not inhibit land annexation. It's just that the imperial court will meet local officials to try their best to ensure that the people will not be forced to sell their land due to natural disasters.
For those who did not want to engage in agriculture and changed to other livelihoods to sell land, the imperial court also supported it.
In fact. As soon as Daliang finished dividing the land, many people sold their land, because they were already accustomed to doing other livelihoods, and they did not want to watch the sky to eat, and they scavenged in the soil.
Although the country has not been established for a long time, the territory of Daliang is thriving.
The Western army also repelled the Western Xia after more than three months of hard fighting, but in order to appease the Kansai Fanbu. The Song Dynasty had to give a large sum of money, plus the military expenses for internal and external wars, and the Song Dynasty lost Tokyo again. Without the accumulation of the past, it can only be taxed by the people in the territory.
Su Yuanjing and others also proposed that the imperial court borrow money from wealthy families in various places and repay it after the taxes were collected, but a large number of officials objected. In the end, the Song Dynasty could only collect taxes in advance from the people in the territory. Moreover, because of the overspending on military spending, the tax burden has also increased a lot.
For a time, the resentment in the Song Dynasty was boiling.
After the end of the war between the Western Army and the Western Xia, Daliang immediately sent 100,000 troops to attack Huainan Road.
After fighting Fangla and Tokyo, and fighting hard with Western Xia for three months, the Western Army has been crippled and can only defend Kansai. There is no ability to fight.
The Song Dynasty could only rely on forbidden armies from all over the country, but wherever the soldiers and horses of the Great Liang went. The people, who were already unwilling to bear it, responded.
Without the support of the people, the forbidden army of the Song Dynasty was even more vulnerable.
The girder was like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, and in less than a month, Lin Chong led his troops to the Yangtze River.
Zhao Ji and other monarchs and ministers fled to Jingzhao Mansion when they heard the news.
For this reason, the ministers of the Song Dynasty had great differences.
Su Yuanjing, Zong Ze and others hoped that Zhao Ji would sit in Jiangnan and rely on the Yangtze River moat to block the soldiers and horses of the Great Liang, otherwise if Jiangnan was lost, the taxes of the Song Dynasty would be greatly reduced. If the strength of the Great Liang Dynasty is eliminated, the national strength of the Great Liang will completely overwhelm the Song Dynasty.
But Zhao Ji was frightened by the momentum of the Liang soldiers and horses, and felt that the Jiangnan Forbidden Army was unreliable, for fear of being captured by the Liang soldiers and horses, and just wanted to go to a place where the Western Army was guarding.
Wang Hao, Cai You and other "Nine Thieves" were also afraid of falling into the hands of Da Liang, and constantly bewitched Zhao Ji.
In the end, Zhao Ji still fled west to Jingzhao Mansion, leaving the eunuch Tan Zhi to command the Jiangnan Forbidden Army to deploy defenses along the river.
When Tong Guan fought Fangla, Tan Zhi was the envoy of the two Zhejiang systems, leading the troops together, and he was also somewhat familiar with Jiangnan affairs. But Zhao Ji and Junchen fled, how could Tan Zhen, the eunuch, have the heart to defend it.
Speaking of which, the Jiangnan Forbidden Army has some combat power. When Fang La rebelled, he slaughtered all the officials and the forbidden army, and the Jiangnan forbidden army was basically recruits, and then Zhao Ji went south to Jiangning Mansion and ordered the forbidden army of the state capitals to rectify, and the Jiangnan recruits bore the brunt of the drills, and the drills were also very strict.
It's a pity that as soon as Zhao Ji fled, people's hearts were scattered.
The Daliang naval army easily defeated the few naval forces of the Song Dynasty on the Yangtze River, and the vanguard led by Wu Song crossed the river and easily defeated the soldiers and horses deployed by the Song Dynasty.
After the army crossed the river, it was even more triumphant.
The state capitals looked down on the wind.
The rule of the Song Dynasty south of the Yangtze River collapsed rapidly like a multi-bony nomi card, not only Zhao Ji did not expect it, but Shi Jin also did not expect it.
Every day, there was good news from Jiangnan, and Shi Jin could only continue to send recruits who had been trained in the capital for three months to the south and garrison the state capitals.
After the founding of the Great Liang Dynasty, Shi Jin set a military system, and all recruits must be trained in the capital for six months before they will be assigned to various places and discharged from the army for three years.
Training in the capital can ensure that the training of recruits is strictly enforced, and the emperor can also inspect from time to time to increase the loyalty of the soldiers to the emperor. After three years of retirement, there is no need to worry that the soldiers and horses in various places will be corrupted and unable to go into battle, and in case of emergency, the veterans who have been trained by the Great Liang can be summoned from the people.
Of course, the premise of all this is that the military salary is generous, and a large number of Ding Zhuang can be attracted to join the army, so as to ensure the smooth rotation of soldiers and horses.
Shi Jin was very confident in Daliang's finances, so he dared to formulate such a military system, not only because the imperial court controlled the monopoly of salt, iron and wine, and the profits were amazing, but also because the money village was a profiteering industry.
Low-interest loans can attract most of the world's loans to the bank, and after the money invested by the imperial court is not enough, it can take out some meager interest to attract the people to save the money, and use the money of the people of the world to earn the money of the people of the world, and there is no need to worry about the financial problems of the Liang.
In fact, Shi Jin wanted to give some interest to the people who saved money from the beginning, but Xiao Jiasui felt that paying interest would make the people worry about whether the imperial court was going to embezzle the money they had saved, and when they wanted to use it, they might not be able to take it out, but they didn't dare to save money. In addition, the imperial court also had a large amount of money from the Song Dynasty treasury and corrupt officials and gentry, which was enough for the money bank to operate for a while.
However, the speed at which Daliang expanded its territory, or the speed at which the Song Dynasty collapsed, exceeded his expectations, so the soldiers and horses sent to various places were also trained for three months.
Now the recruits of Daliang are the recruits of Shandong, Hebei and Hedong, and the people of Liangshan have become generals from thieves and guns, which has also inspired the Central Plains boys to have a dream of making contributions on the battlefield since ancient times, and young people from all over the country have joined the army.
At the same time as the recruits from the north went south, Huainan and Jiangnan also continued to recruit troops, and 1,000 people were sent to the capital.
Groups of recruits can be seen from time to time on the post road leading to the capital, which also ensures the safety and smoothness of the post road.
