Chapter 12: The Opponents Who Begin to Assemble (3)
Zhang Hongfan lowered his eyes slightly and walked into the Golden Palace. Since the Battle of the Yellow River, Zhang Hongfan has gradually developed such a walking habit. In the past, he was not like this, if not to talk about raising his head high, at least he looked at it naturally.
After abandoning 17,000 infantry under the onslaught of the Song army and escaping, Zhang Hongfan was reluctant to raise his eyes to see people. This is a battle that makes Zhang Hongfan feel that he can no longer hold his head up. The 17,000 people were soldiers from near Zhang Hongfan's hometown, and they were Zhang Hongfan's headquarters soldiers and horses. abandoned them, and the blow to Zhang Hongfan was greater than Zhang Hongfan himself imagined.
Stood quietly and listened to the meeting in the court. Zhang Hongfan sometimes felt that the discussion in the court was not as angry as it was before the Battle of the Yellow River. At that time, there was a kind of self-confidence in the Dayuan monarchs and ministers, and there was no opponent of Dayuan in this world. As long as the army is sent, there is no problem that cannot be solved.
Now, even if someone says that, it's only for small and remote countries.
"Order Dali and other places to pay tribute to each of the 1,000 craftsmen."
"The small country of Goryeo dared not to pay tribute and send troops to fight. Ali Hague, order you to go to Goryeo, and capture 30,000 local people. ”
"Hao Ren, how are the preparations for the affairs of the government soldiers?"
"Back to Your Majesty. There are already about 20,000 households that can serve as government soldiers. Each household has one ding, and two horses are brought. ”
Hearing this, Zhang Hongfan couldn't help but raise his gaze and look over. I saw that Hao Ren was replying to Kublai Khan's questioning. The matter of the government soldiers has been said several times in the court before, and the government soldiers must be local wealthy families. However, Hao Ren opened his mouth with one ding and three horses. In this Hebei, will there really be 20,000 families who can afford two horses? Zhang Hongfan was very unbelieving in his heart.
"Your Majesty, if it were according to the previous roster, there would naturally not be so many. If local officials were to measure the land and verify the population, there should be such a number. Hao Ren replied.
As soon as these words came out, all the ministers stared at Hao Ren. Zhang Hongfan is also one of them, and he begins to wonder if Hao Ren is crazy. Measuring the land and verifying the population is tantamount to a new round of robbery. If we do this, we may be able to gather enough for 20,000 households. However, Zhang Hongfan would never support Hao Ren's suggestion.
"So it was ordered." Kublai Khan said calmly.
"Your Majesty, no!" Yao Shu, the old Prime Minister of Zuo, came out tremblingly to express his opposition. Seeing him speak, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Yao Shu has always been a adviser to Kublai Khan, and he is highly respected in the Great Yuan. Yao Shu lived up to expectations and said: "The veterans of the Great Yuan Division are tired, if they are so exhausted. The country really can't afford it. ”
Hao Ren had long known that he would be met with fierce opposition, so he said without hesitation: "Prime Minister Zuo didn't listen to what I said seriously. As I said before, under the government soldier system, if you fight again, it is no longer the army that is recruited, but the government soldiers. If the government military system had been used earlier, probably the prime minister's clan in Luoyang would not have ended up in annihilation. ”
As soon as these words came out, Zuo Prime Minister Yao Shu's face turned pale. The Song army did not slaughter cities, which was completely different from the Mongols. But in this bloody era, the Song army's tolerance was only directed against the Han Chinese. Even among the Han Chinese, traitors are by no means protected. Because of Yao Shu's identity, his clansmen in Luoyang were classified as traitors.
Hao Ren didn't mean to deliberately attack Yao Shu, and now mentioning Yao Shu's matter is just to be used as an introduction. The ten thousand households of the family said solemnly to the civil and military ministers in the court: "Wherever my Mongolian army goes, the city will raise troops to resist, and after the city is broken, the city will be slaughtered. Wherever the Song army went, only the Han people remained. The people in the court don't have to leave anything to chance, if Dayuan is not there, you and other people will be slaughtered. Your family property will also be divided among the local Han people. ”
The first half of the sentence did not move Zhang Hongfan much, and the last sentence was like a morning bell and a dusk drum, like lightning and thunder, which instantly hit Zhang Hongfan's heart. Thinking of the envy and jealousy of the Zhang family by the poor people around his manor, Zhang Hongfan was full of fear for the future of the collapse of the Great Yuan. The fall of Dayuan means the fall of the Zhang family!
"In this case, the government soldiers are not fighting for Dayuan, but for you. You know that Zhao Jiaren engaged in land state-ownership in the Song State. All the land was no longer privately owned, but belonged to the Song court. Those people could take land from the imperial court to cultivate, just like the Tang Dynasty's equalization system. Everyone, I want to ask you, your homes are all thousands of acres of fertile land, after the Song army arrived in Yandi, even if it was just to buy the hearts of the people, would they let you go? ”
Hao Ren had a strong liking for the Great Song Dynasty, or he had a strong liking for the Great Song Dynasty's Zhao Taiwei and Zhao Taiwei's ideas. Therefore, when talking about the land state-ownership policy of the Great Song Dynasty, Hao Ren explained the interests of the middle very thoroughly.
After explaining these thoroughly, Hao Ren made a summary, "The soldiers of the government are for the Great Yuan court. To keep the Great Yuan Court is to save everyone. Ladies and gentlemen, the Song State and the Han people in the north are not enemies, but the Song State and you are mortal enemies! ”
If Zhao Jiaren heard these words at the scene, he would definitely not be able to help but applaud Hao Ren's thousands of households. Because Wanhu tells the future from both a factual and a real perspective, and it is in a very high style.
Zhao Taiwei's enemies had never been Han Chinese, and if he had regarded the Han people in the north as enemies, he would not have exchanged the 50,000 captives with the Mongols. Similarly, Taiwei Zhao will not play anything lenient in this cruel era.
Of course, Taiwei Zhao didn't know about Hao Renwanhu's speech, and he was not interested in knowing. Towards the end of the year, Taiwei Zhao is arranging the resettlement of retired servicemen this year. In all areas where land reform has been implemented, tax bureaus have been set up. The Great Song Dynasty's policy of unified purchase and sales requires sufficient grassroots forces in various localities.
It is impossible for Taiwei Zhao to be incarnated, and his ideas must be implemented by such an organization. The purpose of the society is to gather like-minded comrades. Therefore, the work was handed over to the responsible departments, and Mrs. Zhao was giving lectures to the preparatory members of the society.
With the cultural level of the Great Song Dynasty, the comprehension ability of those who can become members of the society is not bad. The idea of opposing rentier resonated quite well with the members of the Society. talked about the negative performance of the rentier class in the surrender of Lin'an, and these reserve members thought it was true.
Zhao Jiaren drank saliva and rested. Looking at the excited expressions of the students after learning about many 'secrets', Zhao Jiaren felt some emotion in his heart. The reason why we can talk so clearly about the problem now is because the Mongols helped sweep away this rentier. Originally, Zhao Jiaren felt that the upper echelons of the Great Song Dynasty were incompetent at that time, and if he wanted to save the Great Song Dynasty, he had to solve these people first. It was really after solving these people that Zhao Jiaren discovered something else he hadn't thought of before. He once thought that the rentier class must not be incompetent, but now he found that in the face of national crisis, the individuals in the rentier class are not necessarily incompetent, but this stratum itself must be incompetent, and must drag the country into the abyss of destruction.
With such a new understanding, Zhao Jiaren's thoughts immediately flew and he wanted to sit down and write an analytical article.
However, a young member of the society walked up and asked a little timidly: "Taiwei, I am Fang Bo from Raozhou Mansion on Jiangnan West Road. After listening to what the Tai Lieutenant said before, I felt that my mouth was suddenly opened, but when I thought about it later, I felt that something was not right. ”
"Oh? Something is not quite right. Zhao Jiaren still has some expectations for the students who can ask questions.
"My family has 100 acres of land. If my family's land is taken away according to the state-owned state, it will be given another 50 acres, won't my family lose 50 acres of land in vain? If the state is useful, we should naturally offer it. But in doing so, I always feel that something is impersonal. Fang Bo was quite cheerful when he spoke, but in the end, his expression showed nervousness.
When I saw someone asking a question, naturally someone came up to listen. After these people heard Fang Bo's last words, some people couldn't help but shush: "Cut! Speaking of which, isn't it still your little bit of land? ”
Being attacked like this, the young Fang Bo's face was also a little unbearable, and he retorted loudly: "I said it all, when the country is in danger, I don't care about these lands. ”
"Don't argue yet." Zhao Jiaren interrupted such a battle of moods. When the young man calmed down first, he asked Fang Bo, "What factories have you visited when you came to Lin'an?" ”
Fang Bo hurriedly replied: "I haven't had time to visit yet, so I'll come to class directly." ”
"Have the other students visited the factory?" Zhao Jiaren asked the students.
"Nope." "I haven't seen it yet." The students also replied.
Zhao Jiaren turned his head to the cadre in charge of the itinerary and said, "Then adjust the course and first tell the overall situation of the current Great Song Dynasty." Then I took these people to visit the factory enterprise. ”
"Yes." The responsible cadre immediately responded.
Zhao Jiaren turned his head to look at Fang Bo, but saw that the young man had a puzzled expression. He smiled and asked, "But I don't know what kind of work you do?" ”
The club does not recruit students from simple students, and those who can come here must have serious jobs. Fang Bo replied, "I'm from the army. ”
"That means you haven't done anything other than farming and being a soldier?" Zhao Jiaren confirmed a little jokingly.
Even if he didn't feel any malice on Zhao Jiaren's part, Fang Bo couldn't help but hurriedly said, "I can sail the boat." Practiced in Poyang Lake. ”
Zhao Jiaren didn't want to make any comments on this skill. He said to the students: "Some of you have come to Lin'an from Jiangxi, some from Guangnan East Road to Lin'an, and some from Suzhou to Lin'an. I've heard the old saying, travel thousands of miles, read thousands of miles. When you leave home, you must have seen the same things as at home, and you must have seen things that are different from home. Confucius said that a gentleman is not a weapon. I think that Confucius never said anything about the things behind the gentleman's disobedience, that is, he has seen too many things in his life. Let everyone come here with all the hard work, if you can't let everyone see more things, wouldn't it be a waste of time! If there are any questions, we will talk about them after the tour! ”
