Chapter 266: Radical

As soon as Du Yu came back, he was busy.

It is also to settle Qianghu captives, and it is to divide pastoral areas.

Of course, he is most concerned about the government soldiers.

"The subordinates thought it was not appropriate for each soldier to divide a hundred acres of land."

"Oh?" Yang Zheng is also aware of the problem.

His military system is almost copied from the Tang Dynasty.

Naturally there are many loopholes due to memory limitations.

"A person has not cultivated it, but ten acres, the harvest of the middle field, the harvest of the death year, but two stones per mu, more than five or six men and women of a family, a hundred acres of fields, the soldiers are unable to cultivate, there are many fields, the soldiers have no enterprising heart, their minds are thrown into the fields, their intentions will fall, and the combat power of the government soldiers will decline." The head of Du pre-analysis is the Tao.

Yang Zheng wiped a cold sweat.

Thankfully, it's just been divided.

Soldiers are also being transferred.

Lu Zhi also mentioned this problem, but only briefly mentioned it, and then went to reclaim the fields and build a dock fort.

Yang Zheng thought that adding ploughing cattle and iron farming tools would solve the problem, but he didn't expect the relationship to be so deep.

This also faintly shows that Du Pre's talent is higher than Lu Zhi's.

Of course, Luzhi's strength lies in building the framework and governing the people.

Little is known about the military.

There are many policies in history that have good intentions, but when they are implemented, they gradually become sour.

"How much field does Yuan Kai think is appropriate?"

"Ten acres is appropriate." Du pre stretched out a finger.

Ten acres of land, twenty stone grain a year, and a family of five are just enough for Hukou.

However, many of the soldiers in Xiping were converted from slaves, alone, or only wives and children at home.

Ten acres of land is enough for them to barely eat.

Ploughing cattle and farming tools are in the hands of the Ojichong Mansion and are used uniformly.

There is nothing else in Xiping, and there are still a lot of ploughing cattle.

Last time, Shuzhong asked for the purchase of 1,000 ploughing cattle and 3,000 horses.

It is not difficult to cultivate ten acres of land.

"And then according to the size of the military merits, reward the land?" Yang Zheng still knows this set of military merits.

"Exactly, if the tiger and wolf are hungry, they will be fierce, and if they are full, they will fall."

The government military system gradually evolved from the "government households" of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and was continuously improved by the Western Wei Dynasty, the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and reached its peak during the Taizong period of the Tang Dynasty.

Yuwentai's government military system and Tang Taizong's government military system are of course not the same thing.

Everything in heaven and earth is in flux.

You have to learn and apply it.

"If there is no Yuan Kai to remind me, I will almost make a mistake." Yang Zheng gave up his hand to Du Pre.

Du Yu also returned the salute, "The lord can propose the government military system, and he is already a person through the ages, and it is his subordinate duty to check for omissions and supplements." ”

Yang Zheng's old face was red, but he was still a little fluttering when he was praised by Du Pre, and said with a dry smile: "It's just that if you are poor, you will think about change." ”

"If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be able to do it for a long time, which is the most reasonable." Du Yu sent it again.

Yang Zheng coughed and diverted the topic, "What does Yuan Kai think next?" ”

Xiping is thriving, and naturally everyone is thinking about Xiping and their own prospects.

"The bottleneck is still food and population. ”

Xiping has a population of nearly 200,000.

Attracted by the tax cuts for the division of land, the people of Yongliang migrated to Xiping one after another, but with the arrival of Hu Fen and Deng Ai's vigilance, the migration was blocked.

Of course, even if it is completely liberalized, there will not be many people anymore.

Perennial war, Yongliang's population has decreased sharply, and no matter how much taxes are reduced and land, the effect is almost the same.

What's more, a large number of people are controlled in the hands of the nobles.

Yongliang Tuntian also controlled a large number of Tuntian guests.

"What is Yuan Kai's plan?" Reason: Yang Zheng also knows that with a population of 200,000 to raise 50,000 soldiers, the Three Kingdoms have not played like this.

YY

The sixteen Ochichong prefectures took on 24,000 soldiers, but there were still nearly 30,000 soldiers to support.

Moreover, there are many cavalry under Yang Zheng.

I had planned to build a heavy cavalry force of 1,500 people, but I found that I couldn't do it at all.

Heavy riding at least one person and two horses, one horse fighting, one horse carrying weight.

It is definitely not enough to eat grass alone, but also to eat bean and wheat essence to enhance physical strength.

The investment of a war horse is almost five times that of a soldier!

Up to now, the number of horsemen is only seven hundred and sixty-one.

And this thing is also expensive, and the daily maintenance cost is not small.

Horses have to be eaten well, and so are people, there is meat all at once, and each of them is a big man with a face full of meat.

Yang Zheng also does not plan to increase the number of armor riders.

The reason is very simple, you can't afford it.

With light cavalry and infantry armor to fight, not to mention sweeping the world, it is also one of the best combat power in Yongliang, which is enough.

"Completely solve the problem of Qiang, burn Dangqiang, and Zhongqiang!" Du Yu's eyes lit up faintly.

Yang Zheng was stunned for a moment, this step was a bit big, "The plateau is vast, and it takes energy to operate, isn't it worth the loss?" ”

Du Yu pointed to the huge cowhide map and said: "No, our army only takes its population to enrich Xiping, not to operate the plateau, only to occupy some fertile land, hold the shape, the big one builds the city, the small one builds the dock fort, set up the Zhechong Mansion, govern the Qiang with Qiang, feed the war with war, and do not spend Xiping a soldier and a grain, then within ten years, the plateau will be for me!" ”

"If the Qiang rebel, will we not help them to establish a state?"

The fusion is not so simple, the two Han Dynasty, Wei and Jin ruled the Southern Xiongnu, three hundred years before and after, and still not fed.

If the military and technology are spread out, it will be difficult for the Tibetan Empire to appear in advance.

However, since Du Pre put it forward, it must have been carefully considered.

"The Qiang people are different from the Xianbei, the Xiongnu, the Hu people, there is a plate of scattered sand in it, there is no legal royal system, the people are a little more and call themselves the Qiang kings, cannibalism, now Deng Ai is defeated, Hu Fen is coming, within two years, can not attack me in a big way, this is the time of day, two years later, this policy will be fruitful!"

After not seeing each other for three or four months, Du Yu seemed to have become more aggressive.

The scholars of this era, not the scholars after the Song Dynasty, can command the army when they get on the horse, and they can govern the people when they get off the horse.

Zhuge Wuhou, Sima Yi, Zhou Yu, Lu Xun, and Deng Ai are all like this.

Even Guan Gong praised the Spring and Autumn Period.

The scholars of the two Han Dynasty were more radical, and thirty-six horses were set in the Western Regions.

Yang Zheng kept thinking about the feasibility of this strategy in his mind.

The Xiongnu are so difficult to deal with, because they have been generous before, and there are still frustrated canal departments and captives who miss the glorious years of the Xiongnu.

But the Qiang people didn't.

The Qiang people are not a unified ethnic group, but should be regarded as a broad geographical concept.

From the Western Regions to the Plateau, from the Plateau to Shudi, from Hexi to Hehuang, and from Hehuang to Longyou, they are all regarded as Qiang Land.

After Yang Zheng's improvement, the government military system has actually become a system of awarding military merits.

There is a natural desire to expand.

The slaves had made meritorious contributions, or at the end of the five-year term, they were either transferred to the army or to be returned, and the land was to be distributed.

Of course, now there are few people in Xiping, and the whole power is on the rise, and the land is enough.

But what about later?

There will always be a time when the land in Xiping Jincheng will be divided, right?

And the population will continue to grow.

At that time, the ills of the Tang Dynasty will appear in Xiping in advance.

The general trend of the world will be divided for a long time, and the turbulent times will be rapid, and if you don't advance, you will die.

You don't mess with others, you want to be a dog guarding the land, but you can't stand others from messing with you.

Land, food, population, world!

Yang Zheng has embarked on a correct path of no return.

Either achieve brilliance, or die under the tide of the times.

"The Qiang and Han are of the same origin, my Qiang Erlang is loyal, this is a man and a place where the river meanders are rich and beautiful are in my hands, this is the geographical advantage! The time, the place, the people are all in my hands, not at this time, but when! Yang Zheng followed Du Yu's words and finished speaking.

Du Yu smiled and nodded, "The subordinates suggested that they should put another fold in the Poyan Valley in the southwest of the Great Elm Valley, and the river meanders to the five folds of the Chong Mansion, and gradually encroach on the plateau. ”

"If this is the case, then the Xuanyi Division should be the pioneer, recruiting a large number of Xuanyi Lang of the Qiang Department to enter the Qiang land first, preaching the benevolence and righteousness of our army and the leniency of our government! In this battle, the heart of the attack is the top, and the attack and killing are the bottom! Yang Zheng drew inferences.

Unconsciously, the tacit understanding between the two is getting higher and higher.

Du pre arched his hand and said: "If this is the case, it will not take ten years, and Qiangdi will be peaceful!" ”

Two days later, Du made a detailed plan.

The scouts went first, Xuanyilang was the last, and after the autumn harvest, the river meandered and rushed to the palace in turn.

Yang Zheng asked Lu Zhi with the plan.

Unexpectedly, Lu Zhi didn't look at it, "Xingyun can decide for himself, since he wants to do it, there is no need to hesitate, his subordinates will help him!" ”

"Thank you, uncle." Yang Zheng was a little moved in his heart, knowing that he was actually silently supporting himself, never exceeding the rules, never relying on the old and selling the old, and he had an excellent grasp of proportion.

Now that there is Lu Zhi's support, there is basically no internal resistance to this matter.

The garrison of the meanders had been patient for a long time.

Many people want to go one step further in their military exploits.

However, the river zigzag Chongfu has just been built in two places, and the commanders of Zhichong are Du Bin and Yang Jue, and the remaining two Yin Chun are temporarily concurrent.

The territory of Poyan Valley is still in Zhong Qiang's hands.
