Chapter 10: Settle people's hearts with the land and settle the peace
"Tuntian is a combination of soldiers and civilians, the collection of ownerless people, and the cultivation of wasteland, so as to supply military rations and provisions, from this point of view, the status of these so-called ownerless people is not high."
"If you want to recruit agricultural officials, you must have a generous reward, so you can only recruit Tuntian guests with exemption from military service and conscription as a reward that year."
"With such a system, when there are millions of displaced people in our hands now, there is no need for special rewards," Zhang Han said straight to the point.
"Because they are not only ownerless people, but also sinners who disturb the law and order in Yanzhou, and their surrender is not what they want, if they are defeated and surrendered by the Ming Gong, these people will be completely exposed to the wilderness now."
Xun Yu frowned when he heard this, and his lips moved a few times, but he couldn't help but didn't speak.
Cao Cao thought about it meaningfully, but his face was happy when he heard the words.
He understood Zhang Han's implication, if he said it ugly, these millions of returned thieves and outcasts could not be used as populations and as cattle.
There is no need for special rewards, but instead of capturing them for military service or exile to the frontiers, they are cultivating wasteland and planting farmland.
Isn't this benefiting the people? This in itself is a gift!
After all, you can eat a full meal.
"If it's not special, it's a division with the status of the local people," Zhang Han rubbed his hands seriously, his speed of speech was relatively slow, because he was not good at arguing eloquently, so every sentence was thought out as much as possible before he spoke.
"In this way, the status of the cantonment people will be reduced, but it will be better than the fate of the soldiers, and some people will work with peace of mind for the time being and obey the military placement."
"Women and children, the elderly, children, etc., mainly by hand, weaving straw sandals, straw mats, and sericulture as their business, and placing them elsewhere, so that their families can perform their duties."
"The original 300,000 surrendered troops, not to mention dismissal, in the name of selection, selected elites from them to enter the camp for training, and the rest were used as military reserves."
"Set up a detailed agricultural officer to record the merits of the tuntian every year and observe his words and deeds. Those who are diligent and hardworking can divide the land, reward them with gold and silver coins every year because of their merits, or make them start a family and settle down as a people. ”
In this way, the people can have hope, they can seek food and clothing, their daily work can enrich their hearts, and they will naturally be stable if they have a place to go in their spare time. Well...... They would even be grateful to Dade because Ming Gong had allowed these displaced Qingzhou thieves to survive. ”
"That's the general idea."
At the same time, people with families work separately, so that acquaintances can live in one side, and worry about each other. This will ensure peace and order.
Speaking of which, Cao Cao and Xun Yu fell silent at the same time.
From Zhang Han's words, they heard something different from what ordinary people said.
This plan not only solves the problem of food and clothing in Tuntian, but also makes the people have no time to think about it through fatigue, and when they have leisure, they will miss their families, or they will miss rest and will not cause more trouble.
The establishment of a division of land and people, give them hope.
The next is to take food and clothing as the boundary, so that the people have a way to live.
And for the 300,000 soldiers of the thief army, it is not said to be dismissed, but selected.
If you are selected, you will be elite, and if you can't be selected, you can only be a Tuntian guest, which is extremely important to them, and for Cao Cao, it is no different from dismissal.
These words made Cao Cao feel appreciative again.
Although he really wants to be like Xun Yu, empathize with the survival of the people in the world, and think about whether he will be sorry for these migratory and tired people, and appease the people with the greatest benefit.
However, Cao Cao's empathy failed.
After listening to Zhang Han's words, he even felt a trace of excitement, and the ideas buried in his heart in the past jumped into being, like notes drawn by a bosom friend, and when he heard the tune in tune, he naturally wanted to sing a heroic poem.
Of course he understands the reasoning of this theory.
But it is the first time that such a detailed classification and thinking one by one have been set.
Therefore, I feel that Zhang Han is a bit strange.
His starting point seems to be very high, not like he sees himself as a "small official", nor a "general", nor a "sage" who worries about the country and the people, because these people always have the people in their hearts.
In this way, when offering advice, no matter how you think about it, you must flaunt the suffering of the people, and it is all for their good.
The thieves in Qingzhou want to live, if they implement the government of the people, not only can they live with enough food, but also have the opportunity to start a family and start a business, and choose a sharp army, that is meritorious service!
After meritorious service, it is to leave a name in history.
This is what should be told to the pawn.
However, Zhang Han did not hide it, what he said was the essence of control, and at the same time planned for Cao Cao to achieve more long-term gains.
"Bo Chang, you said this plan so blatantly, haven't you ever considered the hardships of the people, the increasing exposure to the sun, and the death of migration?"
Cao Cao is not empathetic, nor soft-hearted, on the contrary, his compassion is not overflowing, but his eyes are becoming more and more calm, and now he is just curious about Zhang Han's heart.
Zhang Han arched his hand to the two and said: "I have thought about it, but I feel that death and injury are inevitable, the decree is good, it gives them hope, but it only secretly reduces their will to choose themselves, but this will is not not given to them, what did they do with it?" ”
Rebel.
No, rebellion is not something to criticize, what should be criticized is that they not only rebelled, but also failed greatly.
"After the defeat of the army from Qingzhou, he coerced the displaced people to go south to Xuzhou, and gathered millions of people to defeat Yanzhou again, so what else is there to say? It's not that they don't have a choice, but they're already living with the consequences of that choice. ”
"Ming Gong," Zhang Han arched his hand: "There are naturally people in my heart, and the decree will be implemented as much as possible, and after the grain and grass are collected, more people will naturally be able to eat enough, and after the wasteland is reclaimed and turned into fertile land, it will be enough to plant more people's hearts." ”
"Bandits are landless people, if they divide the land and the land, it is to open people's hearts, and naturally there is no need to talk about the words of the people at any time."
"Tuntian, Tuntian is the hearts of the people."
Cao Cao's eyes lit up, he suddenly sat up, his hands were lined up and folded in front of him, bowed down slightly, and smiled at Zhang Han: "Bo Chang's words really make me pause." ”
"Ming Gong ......"
Xun Yu didn't feel good when he listened, he supported this decree because it was the most feasible policy at present, but he didn't like Zhang Han's idea at all.
In fact, it can be whitewashed a little, on the grounds of thinking of the people of the Han Dynasty, to talk about this policy, even if it shows a trace of pity and excitement.
However, a gentleman does not force others, and if he knows it, he will stay away.
This Zhang Bochang is not simple.
He himself is not so empathetic, but the words he says are full of emotion.
For example, Tuntian, the people's hearts are solid, so the Qingzhou people follow, Xun Yu has no objection to this.
Xun Yu was surprised at the same time, but also understood that Zhang Han could whitewash his demeanor without elegant etiquette, which would definitely be criticized by other lords, but not here by Cao Cao.
……
"Tuntian, Tuntian is the hearts of the people."
Xi Zhicai learned Zhang Han's words in the military tent, and he came up as soon as he became addicted to alcohol. I feel that I have to drink a few cups to live up to the pride of this sentence.
"If you have a good heart, then you will implement the Tuntian policy, recruit strategists in the territory, first focus on Dongjun, Jibei, Rencheng and other places, and then promote it to all counties after there are achievements."
"Order," Xi Zhicai got up and looked at the guard who came to tell him, "I'll go and give the order." ”
Xi Zhicai got up and went out of the account, assigned the commander to inform the generals, and sent the general to the main account to discuss, and use his own troops to lead the people and divide the territory.
In this process, the generals were suspicious at the beginning, but later witnessed the gratitude of the Qingzhou refugees, and spontaneously requested the allocation of reclaimed areas, and gradually put their minds at ease.
However, after dividing the areas for reclamation, there are some new problems......
"If the reclamation is based on manpower alone, the cost will be huge and it will easily destroy the morale of the displaced people, so I think it is necessary to complete the government decree again in order to find a perfect way."
In the twenty-first meeting, Xi Zhicai threw out the important tasks sent by the military tuns from all over the country in the court, so that the civil and military could be discussed.
