In the official hall of 100 households, Liu Yan is looking through a few reports, Chen Xun, Zhang Yi, Shen Tuo, and Wang Bo have successively sent to rectify the situation of the dun army in various places, and now the progress of the fire road pier and tunbao everywhere is very smooth, the original old and weak dun army has been eliminated, and the first commander of the local army is strictly training the remaining dun army.

At this time, Liu Yan was particularly concerned about the Huangshan Dun in charge of Shen Tuo, and according to the content of the report, Shen Tuo rectified the Dun Army in accordance with the "Infantry Drill Code" sent by Liu Yan, and made a lot of progress.

The number of the dun army of Huangshandun has not only increased to more than 50 people, but also the training level has also improved a lot, at least much stronger than the dun army of the surrounding Huoludun, which can be regarded as the existence between the ordinary dun army and the Dapanbao dun army.

"Well, it seems that this Shen Tuo is not only a brave person, but also a good leader of the troops, and he can be reused."

Liu Yan immediately thought of the dun army that had been eliminated in Wangjiazhuang, and the number of people was also more than 100 people, plus the more than 50 dun troops in Huangshan Dun, which was just enough to gather a sentry of men.

"It seems that the matter of the Huangshan Dundun Army forming a separate outpost can be put on the agenda."

Liu Yan was thinking about it here, and suddenly heard Yue Ming's voice coming.

"My subordinates have seen the captain!"

Liu Yan looked up and saw the chief flag officer Yue Ming walking in, and said with a smile: "Is there something wrong with the chief flag Yue?" ”

Yue Ming respectfully clasped his fists and saluted, and then said in a good time: "My subordinates came here today to recommend a talent for adults. ”

"Oh?"

What Liu Yan likes to hear most now is to discover talents in all aspects, after all, the talent base under his command is still too thin.

"Mr. Yue sat down, I'll listen to the details."

"Yes."

After Yue Ming sat down, he said: "During this time, my subordinates rectified the amount of cultivated land in Wangjiazhuang, and found a person named Zhang Lei, who was originally a small flag official in Wangjiazhuang, but he was quite good at Tuntian, not only proficient in arithmetic, but also very good at farming. The reason why the subordinates were able to quickly rectify the amount of cultivated land in various places this time was because of the assistance of this Zhang Lei. ”

Liu Yan said with a smile: "Okay, since there is such a talent, it can't be buried." ”

Yue Ming nodded in agreement and said: "The adults can recruit Zhang Lei to the test, if the adults think that this person is useful, the subordinates are willing to give up the responsibility of Tuntian and concentrate on the important things of grain and grass for the adults." ”

Liu Yan was very satisfied with Yue Ming's move, no matter what Yue Ming thought in his heart, at least from the performance, it seemed that he was not greedy for power.

So Liu Yan said: "In this way, you go and recruit Zhang Lei, I will talk to him in person, if I can, I will send a document today to promote Zhang Lei to the chief flag officer and serve as the official of Wangjiazhuang Tuntian." ”

Yue Ming was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Liu Yan to have such courage in employing people, and he was directly willing to give the official title of a chief flag officer.

"The adults are so broad-minded, and the subordinates really admire them!"

On the same day, Yue Ming took Zhang Lei to the Baihu official hall, Liu Yan looked at Zhang Lei, and saw that Zhang Lei was tall and thin, with some dark skin, but it gave people a feeling of being capable. A pair of big hands are covered with calluses, according to Yue Ming, this Zhang Lei is busy in the fields on weekdays, and he is incompatible with the rest of the small flag officials and chief flag officials, and no one has been caring about him in Wangjiazhuang.

So Liu Yan asked the two to sit down, and chatted with Yue Ming and Zhang Lei for a long time, and said secretly in his heart: "This Zhang Lei is a practical person!" ”

Subsequently, Liu Yan appointed Zhang Lei as the official of Wangjiazhuang and the rank of chief banner.

Zhang Lei's excited tears welled up, he had worked hard in Wangjiazhuang for many years, and now he finally met Bole, from an unknown small flag officer, promoted to the chief flag officer, and he was also responsible for the things he was good at in Tuntian.

"The subordinates must be smeared with the liver and brains of adults, and they will not hesitate!"

Liu Yan helped Zhang Lei up with a smile and said, "I don't want you to be stupid, as long as you reclaim more cultivated land and manage the military camps in various places, you want to let the people of our Wangjiazhuang have a bite to eat, understand?" ”

Zhang Lei's heart was moved, and he bowed to the ground again: "The adults have the people in their hearts, and they are rare good officials. ”

After Liu Yan promoted Zhang Lei, he directly pulled Zhang Lei and Yue Ming to have a small meeting.

Although it is said to be a small meeting, the things discussed by Liu Yan and the others are not small at all.

"After the sorting out of General Yue's banner, there are now more than 38,500 mu of cultivated land in Juntun in various parts of our Wangjiazhuang, with an average of more than 2,300 households in all 100 households, and the average cultivated land that each household can get is only 16 or 7 mu, which is not enough to support the family."

Liu Yan looked at Zhang Lei and said: "So the main task of you, the official in charge of the tun, is to reclaim the wasteland as much as possible, and to open up all the wasteland that can be reclaimed in Wangjiazhuang and Tunbao, at least 50 acres of cultivated land for each household!" ”

A household is allocated at least 50 mu of cultivated land, which means that there must be at least 120,000 mu of cultivated land.

With such a difficult task, Zhang Lei couldn't help frowning slightly, but then said loudly: "Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will definitely be able to do it." It's just that the reclamation of military camps of this scale is bound to cost a huge amount of money and food, which ......"

Liu Yan said: "You don't have to worry about money and grain, now the money and grain everywhere in Wangjiazhuang, including the money and grain transported from Dapanbao every month, are all in charge of General Yue Qi. You only need to draw up an expenditure plan for how much water conservancy facilities you will build, how many acres of wasteland you will requisition, and how many people you will requisition, and then report it to me. ”

Zhang Lei was overjoyed and said: "In this way, the subordinates can rest assured that they can be tuntian!" ”

Liu Yan said: "Even so, it is not an overnight matter to gather more than 100,000 cultivated land. I think we can start from the existing arable land and complete this task as soon as possible. ”

Yue Ming and Zhang Lei glanced at each other when they heard this, and both of them seemed to have guessed the meaning of Liu Yan's words, and their faces were a little unnatural.

Liu Yan ignored the faces of the two of them, but continued: "Yue Zongqi and Zhang Zongqi, you two can calculate the amount of cultivated land owned by the chief flag officials and small flag officials in Wangjiazhuang in this way, find out the cultivated land they have encroached upon, and return all of them to the hundred households within a time limit. I think that the time limit is ten days, and you will report it to me after you have found out, and then you will give it ten days, and let them clear the land that they have encroached upon. If anyone does not retire, he will be dismissed on the spot, and if the circumstances are serious, he will be severely punished! ”

After listening to Liu Yan's words, whether it was Yue Ming or Zhang Lei, there was a look of fear on their faces.

Zhang Lei, who had just been promoted to the chief flag officer, did not dare to directly refute Liu Yan's order at this time, but Yue Ming thought for a while, and still clenched his fists and said: "My lord, isn't this move a bit radical, it will inevitably damage most of the chief flag officers and small flag officers in the hundred households, and they will all be separated from the adults at that time!" ”

Liu Yan Zhengse said: "But this move will make the people of Wangjiazhuang's military households, as well as more than 1,000 dun soldiers with one heart and one mind, with their support, why am I afraid of a little anger!" ”

Yue Ming and Zhang Lei were immediately calmed by Liu Yan's righteousness, although the two of them were full of worry in their hearts, they were speechless to refute.

"I understand your concerns, but even so, this matter must be done. If we are afraid to do big things, when can we make the people everywhere in Wangjiazhuang worry-free? When will we be able to create a rich and powerful Wangjiazhuang Hundred Households! ”

Yue Ming and Zhang Lei were completely convinced.

From the next day, Yue Ming and Zhang Lei began to act, and Liu Yan specially ordered Miao Shao to mobilize a banner dun army to assist the two in order to let the work of verifying the military tun continue smoothly.

Miao Shao recommended Lu Ying, the little flag officer, and Liu Yan immediately approved it.

So Yue Ming and Zhang Lei, the two chief flag officers, plus Lu Ying, the small flag officer who led the troops, were busy in various places in Wangjiazhuang for more than ten days, constantly surveying and verifying the cultivated land of the military tun in various places.

At the same time, news also came out from the hundred households, Liu Yu, Sun Mingyuan, and the chief and the small flag officials everywhere were all panicked, and even Feng Changyi had encroached on hundreds of acres of cultivated land, and they were all worried these days, and several scribes around them couldn't stand the pressure.

In just a few days, Yue Ming, Zhang Lei, and Lu Ying collected the title deeds of more than 1,000 acres of cultivated land.

But Liu Yan was still not satisfied, and ordered Lu Ying to directly lead troops to the door, go door to door to ask for the title deed, and anyone who disobeyed was immediately arrested and imprisoned.

The ten-day deadline passed quickly, but there were still some officials who did not hand over the encroached farmland, including Liu Yu, Sun Mingyuan, and Feng Changyi, as well as two Huoludun A chiefs, and several small flag officials in Wangjiazhuang.

When Yue Ming, Zhang Lei, and Lu Ying reported the specific situation to Liu Yan one by one.

Zhang Lei, with the cooperation of Lu Ying, also counted the amount of cultivated land occupied by Liu Yu, Sun Mingyuan, Feng Changyi and others, and the land they encroached on was also noted one by one.

Liu Yan was very satisfied after reading it, so he asked, "In this way, have the three of you discussed, and how should these people be handled?" ”

Lu Ying was originally the old dun army of Dapanbao, and he was straightforward, and immediately said at this time: "My lord, my subordinates suggested that they directly send troops to surround these people's homes, search out the title deeds of the land they have encroached on, and then put all of them in prison for crimes!" ”

Zhang Lei hurriedly dissuaded and said, "Don't do this! Now that the adults have re-verified the military camp and confiscated the cultivated land occupied by the officials, it has already aroused a lot of dissatisfaction, and if it is used again, it may cause turmoil! ”

Yue Ming was also worried, and said, "In the opinion of my subordinates, my lord might as well call Liu Zongqi, Sun Zongqi and Feng Lingyi and talk to them again." ”

Liu Yan laughed and said, "I'll talk to them again?" There will be no results! ”

"Liu Yu, Sun Mingyuan, and Feng Changyi will not admit to the encroachment on cultivated land, even if you have the evidence, the result will be the same."

Yue Ming said worriedly: "In this way, I'm afraid there will be a turmoil in Wangjiazhuang because of this!" ”

Zhang Lei is even more worried about this, if he causes turmoil because of his verification of the cultivated land in Juntun, no matter who is right or wrong, Zhang Lei's heart will feel deeply guilty.

Lu Ying, on the other hand, was more excited, and even asked Liu Yan if he needed to mobilize people in advance to prepare.

Liu Yan seemed to have a plan, and said to the three of them: "How this matter goes, it depends on how Liu Yu and them choose." Wen Ce of the evidence you sorted out will be put here with me first, and you won't say anything to others after you go back, wait for my news. ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand."
