In the council hall of the village city, the retainers are participating in the assessment.

"As for the remaining people of the original Qianxi clan and the rest of the tributaries, the territory will be confiscated, and they will also be scattered and distributed to various parts of the Luo family's territory, and when the time comes, you will assist Dongxiang Heiji in handling this matter." A word from Masahiro decided the fate of these people.

"Your Majesty will definitely do his best for the Luo family, and then die." Yuancheng Temple Xinyin immediately leaned over and said. He was moved and terrified. Touched, his family got the orthodox inheritance of the Qianyu family. Although this was only decided by the lord of the country privately, with this righteousness, and the Qianxuan clan was also busy, this was almost an ironclad thing, so he was very moved. Frightened, worried about the orphans of the clan and the rest of the tributaries who would be scattered throughout the Luo family's territory. Although the lord of the kingdom will certainly arrange everything for them, when they arrive in a new place, they will soon live in peace again. But once these people are scattered, it is almost impossible to gather together again, and the end result is that the clan equivalent to them is almost wiped out. It's a slow way to exterminate the race.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel creepy, the head of the family's move was too vicious. At the same time, I am glad that I was on the right team in the first place. Although according to the law of the territory, the family's strength and income will be severely reduced, but at least the clan will be preserved. If the territory is confiscated and becomes state-owned, it will be okay for the family to get one-tenth of the tax revenue from it anyway, and there is no problem in maintaining the family's survival. And as you have more merits, you will inevitably have more fiefs, and as long as you let the clansmen manage these territories well, the tax revenue will inevitably be a lot. It's about the same as when they used to own the territory entirely.

"Well, the territories of the original Qianyu family will also be rewarded to you." Masara thought for a moment and continued.

Just as Enjoji Shinyin thought, it was through the law of the territory that Masahiro weakened the armed power of these wealthy clans themselves. If you think about it, you can see that according to the territorial law, the wealthy clans only have the right to manage their fiefs and have no ownership (the ownership is all collected by the lord, and the lord is fairly distributed according to the actual situation of each lord), which is equivalent to working for the lord. What was the most taboo during the Warring States period? It's a cutting domain. There is only nominal management. without actual ownership. Moreover, this administration must be governed according to the laws of the territory. Doing so is tantamount to reducing the territory of those wealthy families.

At the beginning, the Hao family may not dare to speak up because of the strength of the Luo family, but there must be something mustard in their hearts, and even antipathy. If it is more intense, it will even rise up. Therefore, the political conscience should be slow and excessive. So Masato came up with a solution. That is, although the vacancies who forcibly demanded their submission to enforce the laws of the territory. But it will also increase their fiefdoms, so that nominally their territories will be expanded, and the taxes will be converted back. The actual income is about the same as the previous income, if not more, at least they are psychologically passable. But the discerning person can still see that the most important territorial ownership is still in the hands of the lord, and their so-called "lords" are just managing the territory on the basis of abiding by the laws of the territory. Moreover, its own military strength has also been greatly controlled. So there will still be people who are dissatisfied.

But Masato was not afraid at all. First of all, Zhengliang's pacification policies are only aimed at the wealthy families who have defected to Chengcheng. As for those wealthy clans who rebelled and failed, Masahiro would not hesitate to scatter them and distribute them to various parts of the territory, or even exterminate them directly.

And for these wealthy families who defected, what if they also rebelled?

In this regard, Zhengliang is not afraid.

According to the territorial law, after surrendering, the force of these wealthy clans is required to be limited to a maximum of fifteen followers, and the remaining excess strength will be arranged for disposal, and this law is implemented immediately after the surrender of the wealthy clan. There is no room for delay. Otherwise, it will be regarded as a rebellion and will be defeated.

In addition, after the confiscation of the land ownership of the wealthy clans, the real beneficiaries of the land were actually the people of those lands. When the land is redistributed, the people in charge of the distribution (basically the people of Roche who have retired for various reasons) will tell the people. It was the lord of the kingdom who personally arranged for these territories to be distributed to them, and in the future, they only had to pay the agricultural tax once a year. In short, they will continue to indoctrinate that what they get now is what the lord of the country has given them.

What is the basis of the rebellion of the Hao family? These are the people. As long as these lords don't support them. Then they will only have to rebel with those die-hard kinship samurai and Ashigaru. And there are actually not many people in this part, which is conducive to counterinsurgency.

And Masahiro also wished that these wealthy clans would be able to rebel immediately. In any case, the fewer such tycoons in the territory, the more secure his rule will be.

In general, for the rebellious wealthy families, Zhengliang will ruthlessly wipe them out. For the wealthy families who surrender to Cheng, they will be dealt with in the most gentle way possible, and will use various ways to compensate for their losses; For the wealthy families who cooperate, they will not only compensate for their losses in various ways, but also give more care. Zhengliang hopes that through this comparison, all the wealthy families will realize that only cooperation will get the greatest benefits.

However, this is a new land system, which is different from the land system currently prevailing in the Warring States, and when it is just beginning to be implemented, it will inevitably have all kinds of contradictions with these old wealthy families, so the initial stage is the most dangerous for the newly acquired territory. However, for the implementation of this system, Zhengliang's determination is very firm.

In order to ensure the smooth implementation of this system, Zhengliang mainly adopted several methods.

First, it firmly controls the ownership of the various armies and firmly pursues the direct management of the armies by the lord of the country. At present, the military strength of the territory is basically in the form of standing reserves, and these standing reserves, whether they are ashigaru or samurai, are uniformly selected and trained by the new barracks, without the intervention of any other wealthy clans, and try to ensure that most of the soldiers of each team will not concentrate the clansmen of a certain wealthy clan. Moreover, an ideological education system has been established in the army, and every recruit is instilled with the idea that the orders of the lord of the country are above all else, and they are soldiers belonging to the lord of the country, from the moment they enter the recruit camp. And for the generals, after they were divided by Zhengliang, they were actually considered a wealthy family. Of course, among them, there must be wealthy families born under the new system, and there are also wealthy families who surrendered under the old system, and in general, the number of wealthy families representing the new system will be more. Regardless of whether it is a new tycoon or an old tycoon, they are allowed to lead their fifteen followers to participate in the team. These retinues were not allowed to occupy any positions in the team, but only existed as guards for the generals. The general only has temporary command of the team, and has no ownership. Once the order of the lord of the country is down, no matter what the order of the general is, it must be based on the order of the lord.

Second, a large number of grassroots retainers were employed. Most of these retainers did not have any major family stumbling blocks, or their families were not in the territory of Masahiro, and there was no direct conflict of interest with Masahiro. The Zhengliang will promote them to become the power of the retainers of the wealthy families who represent the old system, and at the same time make them the new wealthy families under the new system. Of course, as the power and power of these retainers continue to increase, perhaps they will want more or breed other thoughts. But at that time, they suddenly found that they no longer had the foundation and resources to realize these ideas.

Third, increase the patronage of the people. Whether it is the source of the army or the source of various resources in the territory, it is actually inseparable from each of the people. In the existing system, in fact, each daimyo mainly relied on various wealthy families with different powers. The armies of each daimyo were made up of the armies of various wealthy clans. The daimyo will be heavily dependent on the allegiance of the wealthy clan, and if the wealthy clan betrays, the daimyo will get into trouble. Fundamentally, the daimyo had to rely on them because the Hao clan controlled a large amount of military power and resources, and directly controlled the people under their domain. In the future, Oda Nobunaga actually weakened such a relationship to a certain extent, such as establishing a standing reserve that was separated from the wealthy family, and then adding various favorable factors and historical factors, before it developed, and almost became a member of the world. However, at the end of the day, he still died of his own character and the control of the army by this wealthy family, and he did not get rid of this shackle even if he died.

Now, on the one hand, Zhengliang weakens the control of the various wealthy clans over the people under their lords (the land is given by the lord of the country, and it does not belong to the lord; The tax is also paid only once a year, and it is given to the lord of the state, not to the lord; The lord can only supervise and manage the agricultural and civil affairs of the territory according to the laws of the territory), and on the other hand, strengthen the control of these lords through various patronage methods. It is in this way that Zhengliang returns the resources and direct control of the territory to his own hands, and no longer relies too much on various wealthy families. Under this system, the influence of the various wealthy clans on the daimyo will be greatly reduced, and they will gradually change to the role of auxiliary daimyo.

Of course, perhaps Masahiro's idea is naïve, and it may even be stillborn. As it stands, there will be two dangerous periods if such a system is implemented. One is that at the beginning of the new occupation of the territory, once this system is implemented, it will inevitably have great contradictions with those old wealthy families, so it will inevitably be accompanied by all kinds of conflicts, and even the emergence of things that are completely pushed to reconstruction; Another period is that some wealthy families succumbed to the power of the Luo family, temporarily forbeared, and would attack whenever they had the opportunity. For the above two dangerous periods, Zhengliang took the form of carrots and sticks, appeasing with one hand and striking mercilessly with the other. As long as it lasts for four or five years, after the new system is completely accepted, even the wealthy families with different intentions will lose the foundation and resources to realize them.
