Chapter 329: Dispute

Dong Zhao's so-called Qu Shuai's thunderous anger is just an exaggeration after the news was spread falsely. But on this day, Zhang Chong did have a dispute with Du Man, and it was related to the foundation of the Taishan army.

……

"Who told you to divide the land again?"

At this time, Zhang Chong, who was still jubilant, was full of surprise and dissatisfaction when he heard what Du Man had just said.

He never expected that this time he would divide the land around Mount Tai again without informing him, and this time the object of the division was the object of Zhang Chong's grant of land four years ago.

After a year of separation, Du Man is darker and more mature.

In the face of Zhang Chong's questioning, he did not panic, but explained:

"Ah Chong, you may not know much about the situation. Four years ago, we began to divide land in the Taishan area. But now, four years later, the original land has begun to concentrate in small parts again. In this way, now there is a mediocrity again, and there is a strong and weak again. And in this way, isn't it contrary to our original intention of dividing the field back then? ”

When Zhang Chong heard this, he suddenly said:

"So, you've redivided these people's land?"

Du Man nodded.

It turned out that after the division of land in the Taishan area, the vast majority of people had their own land and began to live a good life that they had not thought of.

But then comes differentiation.

People are virtuous and foolish, even if they stand at the same starting line, they will have different choices.

After some people have land, they work hard to increase their harvests, and their lives become richer and richer. And even if some people have land in their hands, their idleness in the past has not changed, and they still do not produce and leave the land there.

At first, these people only rented the land to those who worked hard, and did not work themselves, so they lived on the little rent. But this kind of tight life can't withstand a little turmoil, and some people start to sell their land directly because of expenses such as weddings, funerals, and weddings.

In this way, new land annexations, albeit slowly but unwaveringly, began to emerge. And the earlier the region is divided, the more serious this phenomenon will be.

After knowing this trend, Du Man, who had always carried out Zhang Chongjun's idea of land, decisively began to redivide the land in several areas where the phenomenon of annexation was serious in order to prevent the emergence of new heroes and powers under his rule.

Du Man knew the consequences of this, which would inevitably greatly hit the production enthusiasm of the people in the Taishan area. Because even in Du Man's view, his behavior is to maintain an absolute fairness, but in the eyes of the low-level leaders, this is a regular cutting of leeks.

Since the result of hard work is that the land is redivided, it is better to maintain food and clothing, and it is best to not go up or down. Therefore, since the re-division of the fields, the production in the Taishan area has come to a standstill, and there is no more growth.

Du Man told Zhang Chong about this, and naturally felt that something was wrong. But he didn't think it was wrong to equalize the land again, but he was thinking of ways to increase yields while maintaining a static average.

Listening to Du Man's words, Zhang Chong really had a little headache.

He is not full of headaches, but headaches about the conflict between ideals and reality.

In fact, Du Man was right, wasn't it just for the time when everyone had land and everyone was warm? This is also their righteousness and ideal.

But do you say that Zhang Chong's support is full? Not!

It's not that Zhang Chong has lost his ideals, but that he understands what the reality is at this stage.

With the confrontation between the Eastern and Western Han Dynasty, the Taishan army gained an excellent period of development. In the eastern and western courts, there is no winner or loser, and no one will lose his strength to conquer him.

This is the same as when the captain of the transport team fought in the Central Plains War in the future, he had no time to take care of Jiangxi.

Therefore, Zhang Chong must vigorously develop cultivation warfare in this excellent development period. Since we want to encourage people to farm, in addition to maintaining external security, we must also give everyone hope.

And now, if the school is full of that, and the land is divided equally again for the sake of the ideal, then who can produce with peace of mind? After all, those who have no permanent birth have no perseverance.

Zhang Chong thought very clearly: At this stage, it is still necessary to take the development of agriculture as the first priority, and the division of land is only a means rather than an end.

But Zhang Chong was thinking about how to convince Du Man, because after all, this matter involves righteousness.

After thinking about it, Zhang Chong said:

"Aman, do you think that without us, the ideal of everyone having land to grow will still be realized?"

Du Man shook his head, of course not.

In fact, this is also the place of Du Man's pride, since he has a complete understanding of the present world and the future, Du Man has more and more a sense of mission, that is, my Taishan Army is the promise of God to bring the balance of prosperity to the world.

This self-sacrificing mentality has always been to be confident that they will be able to get through the future no matter what the sinister situation happens.

So Zhang Chong continued to ask:

"But at this stage, what we need is food. Without food, it is unstable, without food, our Taishan army can't be maintained now, let alone fighting. And when we divide the fields among the people, they let them give us food. ”

This statement was a little different from what Du Man thought, he frowned, and questioned:

"So, whether this grain is received from Qianshou or from Haoqiang, we don't care?"

Zhang Chong looked at Du Man, and he was really a little incomprehensible.

I don't know if I haven't seen him for more than a year, how did Duman, who was originally a little conservative, become more radical than him? And just now, is he questioning me?

Trying to put aside some bad feelings, Zhang Chong explained:

"The matter of dividing the fields is not a simple matter, it involves all aspects. How to divide and how to divide is not static, it has to serve us at different stages. ”

"For example, in the early days in the Taishan area or earlier in the Xue family's wall, why do we divide the fields? In addition to practicing our ideals, the more important one is to break up the control of the Han family in the local area. ”

"Break the strong and divide the fields. Change the relationship between places in this way. The heroes who relied on the Han family were defeated, and the children who supported our Taishan army stood up. In this way, we can fight stronger and stronger, and fight more and more. ”

Speaking of these, Zhang Chong also criticized Du Man:

"And if you're doing this in the Taishan area, who will follow us. In the end, even those who originally supported us will oppose us, and even fall to the side of the Han family. ”

Du Man snorted:

"So all this is just an imperial trick? In order to give you the means to win the world? ”

Zhang Chong frowned and said angrily:

"Duman, what's wrong with you, why do you think of me like this? You think it's all my trickery? ”

Du Man also felt a little speechless, he was busy apologizing, but was stopped by Zhang Chong, only to hear Zhang Chong continue:

"It's not a matter of means, it's that any ideal that is divorced from reality will fail. Since you are trying to transform reality, but you don't care about the development of reality, how can this transformation succeed? ”

"I'll tell you plainly. Our land policy is not uniform, but for the whole day. At the present stage, we must be inclusive, crack down on evil and strong in the process of dividing land, and seek land for the vast number of poor people. And then let everyone work hard to produce. ”

"All this is after we defeated the Han family and won the world. Without these, your so-called ideals are nothing more than empty buildings. ”

Zhang Chong said very harshly, but Du Man heard a different taste.

He raised his head and looked at Zhang Chong fiercely:

"So this is all before the world, but after the world?"

Zhang Chong laughed and said inexplicably:

"Then wait until the world comes."

So the conversation between Zhang Chong and Du Man ended, and the dispute between the two became the so-called thunderous anger in Dong Zhao's mouth.

The aftermath of this is this.

The transfer of Du Manxin was soon announced, and he was transferred from the Taishan area to all the government affairs of the shogunate president. There is also a resolution.

That is to say, many people in the base areas have an absolute concept of wealth and poverty in the work of presiding over the division of farmland. I think that whoever is richer and has more surplus food at home is a big deal. But at this stage, it is necessary to let the leaders of the base areas work hard to produce and let them all live a good life.

As soon as this resolution came out, and then compared the previous arrangements for Duman, many people who understand it will naturally understand, and know what Qu Shuai values most now.

Zhang Chong, as the head of several armies, could no longer be as arbitrary as in the past, and in addition to meeting with Duman, the other staff of the shogunate also sought rulings on different matters.

In his position, solving problems is not to solve this one problem, but to serve as a rule for a class of problems.

For example, this time on New Year's Day, Taishan Taishou Cai Yong and Juncheng Zhuge Jue both came. The two of them not only came by themselves, but also brought their own group of people.

With the visible decline of the Han Dynasty, and the Taishan Army became stronger and stronger, and all policies were in line with the people's will, Zhuge Jue's attitude became more and more loose, and now he almost regarded himself as a member of the Taishan Army.

This time, Zhuge Jue brought a family to Yecheng, which was his greatest optimism about the Taishan Army.

This time, Zhuge Jue also came with a case, which is also a case in which he and Cai Yong have a big difference, so Zhang Chong needs to rule here.

Zhuge Jue said that there was a person named Lu San in Ying County, who had been idle and tenant with people before. Later, the Taishan army came and began to divide the fields on a large scale in Ying County.

Not only Lu San himself, but also his father and uncle got a share of the land.

But later, Lu Sancheng was addicted to gambling, not only sold his own land early, but even sold his father's land while his father was critically ill. Later, Lu San's uncle reprimanded Lu San for being unfilial, and later Lu San stabbed his uncle to death by mistake.

At that time, it was Cai Yong who was in charge.

With a realistic attitude, Cai Yong finished investigating the case, but he missed it, and it can be forgivable according to the law. That is, Lu San will punish the corresponding Su according to the crime.

But Zhuge Jue, the county leader at that time, did not agree with this verdict. He believes that the murderer in this case caused the death of his uncle, which is contrary to morality and reason, and should be dealt with severely, and should be decided by beheading.

Hearing Zhuge Jue's remarks, Zhang Chong silently thought:

"I said where did Zhuge Liang's Shenhan technique come from in the future, it turns out that this is the tradition of your Zhuge family."

Of course, he knew why Zhuge Jue made this judgment, which was to maintain the patriarchal system of pro-Lunlun, and the patriarchal system is the core of regional stability.

Because in ancient times, it was difficult to maintain a large-scale bureaucratic team because of the difficulty of tax collection and the single source of tax. So many local affairs have to be decentralized. With the exception of a few necessary cases, most of the lawsuits are resolved by the local chief.

So, that's the equivalent of some degree of administrative outsourcing. The local patriarch is responsible for managing and restraining the clansmen and reducing the burden of government management.

The patriarchal system relied on the patriarchal system to adjudicate lawsuits. Therefore, to maintain the patriarchal system is to maintain local stability.

At this time, Zhang Chong was embarrassed again.

In addition to the division of fields in the Yecheng area, he also implemented the division of households. It is because he knows that the local tyrants are powerful and powerful, and it is these powerful clans.

If these people are not attacked, the division of the Taishan army is only on paper, and the local patriarch can take it back for them with a word.

But Zhang Chong had to admit that the current Taishan Army could not manage such a big situation. To put it mildly, now Zhang Chong doesn't know how many fields and how many dings he has under his rule.

It's not that no one is doing it, it's that there is a lack of enough accountants.

The brave men of the Taishan army carried a lot of buckets, but to find out what could be counted to a hundred, I am afraid that they could not find a hundred. It's not that Zhang Chong cultivated some literacy through the rampage.

Do you believe it, how much their Taishan army fought in the front, and the children of the wealthy families in the back could rely on one or two micro-arithmetic to enter the house, and then take advantage of it.

Therefore, Zhang Chong can only acquiesce to the status quo, that is, he does not plan to eat a fat man, and he does not expect a trick to order, and the world will change.

As he and Duman said, he divided the field into several steps. Zhang Chong also divided each base area into different levels and managed them separately.

Now under Zhang Chong's rule, there are areas in the upper reaches of Zhangshui, Heji area, Taishan area, central and southern Lu region, Laiwu Valley, and some scattered corners.

In terms of power radiation and importance, the Zhangshui, Heji and Taishan regions are the most important. The first two areas are garrisoned by large armies, which can implement the established policies well, while the latter is the basic territory of the Taishan army, and it must be handled well, because this is the heart of the army.

This is also the reason why Zhang Chong is dissatisfied with Du Man, most of the soldiers are the children of Taishan, and Du Man will divide the fields in the Taishan area, which will inevitably greatly affect the morale of the old brothers in the army.

For these three, whether it is the division of fields or households, or grassroots management, Zhang Chong regards it as the top priority. But for other regions, Zhang Chong only needs to maintain the situation and be able to recruit troops and collect grain.

This is not Zhang Chong's appeasement, but the result of rational consideration. Although whale swallowing is heroic, it can also choke to death, but it cannibalizes step by step, step by step, but it can go straight to the clouds.

So for Zhuge Jue's judgment, Zhang Chong nodded and agreed.

In this way, Lu San's fate was decided.

After this incident, Zhuge Jue said another thing, that is, he had been entrusted by Zhang Chong to sort out a detailed list of various forms of land with Taishan County as the object, and now it was time for him to hand over the results to Zhang Chong.

Looking at the stack of books that were brought up, Zhang Chong sighed that Zhuge Jue was really a capable official and a capable person.

Then Zhang Chong asked Zhuge Jue to go back to rest, and he himself wanted to read the book.

And this look is a day and a night.

The division of fields is not a simple division of fields, it is actually a change in the economic structure, and the original morality and patriarchy must be changed in turn. That is, there is a mismatch between the superstructure and the economic structure. But the problem is that Zhang Chong divided the field, but there were not enough theoretical and executive personnel, so these problems came out.

Although it was written, I don't want to take the land issue as smooth and natural in the spring and autumn period. It's as if the traverser only needs to divide the field, there will be no problems.

Of course, since it is, the story is primary. So these discussions are only a small part of the discussion, just to let the reader understand that this is a systemic problem, not a superficial effort.

Many of my readers are school students, and reading my book is certainly a search for a change, but I also want to discuss some in-depth issues, because I came from this age, and I know that if I can help them realize the real-world society, and have a deep understanding of society, then I think it is also meaningful.
