45 Expansion

The generals are all rough men, with straight intestines, and whoever has strong combat effectiveness and can win battles, they will be convinced.

Therefore, the foundation of Lu Xiaoxuan's life in the army is her strong combat effectiveness.

Whether it is the deterrent power of holding a bow and arrow within 200 meters, or the strange power she inherited from her grandfather, it has become Lu Xiaoxuan's capital.

Lu Xuan, Qiong Guogong, known as "Little Lu Bu", is not a waste of fame, in the case of one against one, she rarely meets opponents.

In particular, when she was in charge of the more than 20,000 people in the left front army, she adopted some modern training methods, and she also had the materials supported by her own son, the army discipline was better, the pressure on the supervising team was not so great, and sometimes she could copy knives to cut down a few enemy troops, and for a time she became the most powerful unit in the whole army.

After the destruction of Xiangyang Mansion, Lu Xuan successfully achieved a goal, that is, to stop the regular practice of the army entering the city and plundering for three days, she personally led the army into the city, and sent down the cloth, salt and sugar brought by Lu Ying.

Then he took the lead in setting up camp and sleeping tents in the city, and did not occupy the houses of the common people.

On top of that, under the impact of heavy rains this year, the Yellow River burst its banks.

If the Yangtze River is a violent mother river, the Yellow River is the mother river of frequent domestic violence, both rivers are the mothers of the children who grow flowers, but the force of beating the children is terrifying, the light is the outbreak of epidemics, the farmland is ploughed in vain, and the family is ruined.

At present, the Yellow River is still in the territory of Beimeng, it is violent, the combat effectiveness is extraordinary, Beimeng can no longer want to beat Xiangyang back, only hurriedly send a letter of peace, otherwise Beimeng's finances will not be able to hold up first.

However, after having a general understanding of the average quality of the ancient army, Qiu Yu also had his doubts: "With only the food and salary you brought over, can Aunt Lu control so many people from looting?" Can a soldier be so obedient? ”

Lu Ying said: "It should also be used to deter by force, such as pulling out a tree or something, my grandfather has pulled out a tree before to scare people who are not convinced by him." ”

Qiu Yu: ...... What kind of monster is your grandfather?

Force is the basis for most policies.

Lu Ying can easily push down things such as tax reform and paid forced labor, but other counties on Qiongya Island are not so good, and even their government is actually not very in charge, and it is the landlords and gentry who take people to do these things.

Anyway, even if they change to other places, it is normal for the landlords and gentry to levy additional conscription outside the government to build their yards, build houses, dig wells and open fields.

As for whether the landlords and gentry give money when they are conscripted, here Qiu Yu can popularize an ancient hot knowledge↓

In the hearts of the old men, the common people are just a kind of big animals that can talk.

Giving money to livestock? That's really a duck with its eyes open, but a duck doesn't close.

This is why no matter how tyrannical Qin Zhanying is written in the history books, he still has a lot of fans in later generations, because after the big guy studied between the lines of the history books, he was surprised to find that this guy is more than the civil officials!

As for the real Yingying, it's even more surprising, he really treats people as people!

After a long-distance business trip, Lu Ying will also give people a holiday, but this is more like the tradition of the old Lu family, even if it is a feudal landlord like Lu Fang and a top local hero, he still maintains the simple three views of "I am a person, and I am surrounded by people", which is probably related to the history of their family.

Not to mention anything else, Qiu Yu asked about the tax system of Qiongya Island, and found that the Lu family presided over the payment of a fixed tax amount every year, and they would intercept the rest to raise a water army.

Isn't this stepping on a horse just a pounce!

Lu Ying heard his low voice and responded: "It is indeed a buy, this time I met with the emperor, he was very friendly to me, but I am afraid that we still think that we have done a good job, and the taxes paid to him are much more than the taxes given by the officials, and the order in the South China Sea is also well maintained." ”

The so-called buying is a kind of tax system that has been popular in the DPRK, that is, the government outsources a certain tax system to a certain group.

The taxes of Qiongya Island and the safety of the South China Sea were bought by the emperor to the Lu family.

Generally speaking, some key games are accidentally out, which will only make the people be ruined worse than anything else, such as medical education or something...... Qiu Yu heard Lu Ying talk about the emperor's attitude towards him, and he didn't know if the emperor knew that Lu Ying was his nephew, but even if Lu Ying was his own nephew, he could buy all the taxes collected to the Lu family, and the administrative level of Emperor Cheng'an could be imagined.

As for

Why did later generations of people who studied history not complain about Emperor Cheng'an in this regard, it is estimated that it is because after Qin Zhanying ascended the throne, Qiongya Island automatically belonged to Dayu, and all political power was taken back, and Qin Zhanying was not a person who complained about his uncle, and as a result, he left a good reputation for Emperor Cheng'an.

Qiu Yu: Thinking about it this way, Dayu has experienced the messy faint sect and the Cheng'an Emperor who is not good at governance, and when he developed to the fourth generation of emperors, he was able to meet Yingying, which was definitely the outbreak of national fortunes, but unfortunately it exploded in those years, and then Huaizong brought the national fortunes down to the bottom.

Qiu Yu combed Lu Ying's hair and fought in the courtyard for a while, while Lu Ying was snorting fans.

After eating Huxiang rice noodles, Lu Ying included them in her standing menu, and it seemed that she agreed with the taste of this Huxiang breakfast.

Sucking and sucking, Yingying's breakfast today is marinated powder, that is, mixed with coarse rice noodles with marinade, plus beef, peanuts and chopped green onions, peanuts are fried fragrantly, the marinade is just right, the rice noodles are scalded so that the taste is neither soft nor hard, and there is a faint rice fragrance.

The recipe is still dedicated by Qiu Yu, he has long found out that Lu Ying prefers heavy flavors, saying that he will be more energetic after eating.

Thinking that this child has low blood pressure, and high-salt foods can raise blood pressure, Qiu Yu can understand him very well, but out of love for the child's kidneys, he still told Yingying: "Don't eat too much salt." ”

Yingying: "I know that everything has to be just right, and after that, it will be bad." ”

Because the coconut ripening season had already been picked and sold, Qiu Yu told Lu Ying that he wanted to buy some coconuts.

Lu Ying reminded: "Don't go to the northeast of the island, there is a serious disaster, Wenchang County is still rebuilding, you go to the south." ”

Qiu Yu responded: "Okay, don't worry, I buy coconuts every year, even the coconuts on Wanlong Island are also on time, and they are all ripe." ”

Lu Ying thought for a while, and then said, "Forget it, don't go, just wait here, I'll help you get the coconut, you just give me the money." ”

When Qiu Yu was puzzled and was about to ask what was going on, Hua Meijing brought her son to ask Lu Ying for peace, and Hua Meijing said that she hoped to return to her post in advance to recuperate for the little master.

Lu Ying asked, "Why did you come back early?" Rested enough? ”

Hua Meijing said respectfully: "My subordinates are hard-boned, and I haven't been too tired along the way, not to mention that serving Young Master Sun is not a very tiring job, as long as I cook a good meal, I want to come back early." ”

Lu Ying nodded, and looked at Zhang Hua again, he knew that this young man must have something to say.

"Let you do a free clinic in Wenchang, and the free clinic is over?"

Zhang Hua held a volume of booklets and handed it over: "Yes, in the name of free clinic, his subordinates assisted Wang Xiancheng to verify the Dingkou of the Wenchang generation, and now there are a few medicine boys there." ”

Lu Ying: "Are the people okay?" ”

Zhang Hua replied: "It's all good, except for the natural disasters that can't be retained, everything else is good, the government has distributed vegetable seeds, and borrowed some people from Ding'an County to teach soil and fertilizer, ready to make up for the loss of fields in a wave of typhoons, Wenchang has good water and soil, and it is also appropriate to raise chickens and ducks, and Lord Qian said that he can also support a batch of chicken and duck seedlings in Wenchang County." ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Hua's face revealed some joy, he is a doctor who hangs the pot to help the world, he has traveled all over the world over the years, not to say anything, but in fact, he saw the people living numbly like cattle and horses, and his heart was numb, and even felt that everything should be taken for granted, and everyone should be so bitter.

&

nbsp; But Lord Qian of Ding'an County is really a capable minister, yes, in Zhang Hua's heart, Qian Aquan, Chen Jun, Yang Tiansheng, Wang Zhouzhou and others have all become capable ministers and Qingtian masters.

Because after the natural disasters in previous years, the common people were going to starve to death, that is, they did not starve to death, and the forced labor of the post-disaster reconstruction could also exhaust them, and the forced labor could not die, but the seeds left at home would also be eaten up, and if there were no seeds to farm, they would have to borrow from the landlord in exchange for some seeds, and then the pawn wife sold his children and sold the farmland, and the family was ruined.

But what about this year? At least in the two counties of Ding'an and Wenchang, after the disaster, the people all have the food given by the government to eat, and the conscription is all under the repair of death row squads, Wenchang County is the hardest hit, but Lu Ying does not allow the official government to prostitute the labor of the people, and the official office is covered with food and accommodation! This is cash-for-work.

If there are seeds, it is also issued by the government, and you can borrow people to teach how to farm for a bumper harvest, and even send chicken and duck seedlings, to be able to do this, in Zhang Hua's heart, Qiongya Island is already completely different from the Central Plains, and can be regarded as a peach

Wonderful place in general source.

Then Lu Ying said: "Then you prepare, and then go to the meeting." ”

As soon as these words came out, the courtyard fell silent.

The situation on Qiongya Island is like this today.

From the mainland, you will go to the northernmost port of Qiongshan on the island, and countless maritime merchants have stopped here, Qiongshan City has naturally become the most prosperous city in Qiongzhou Prefecture, and it is also the place where the Lu family and the prefect of Qiongzhou stay, and the east of Qiongshan is Wenchang and the south is Ding'an, that is to say, the two counties surrounding Qiongshan are in the hands of Lu Ying.

Qiongshan is the base camp of the Lu family, and Lu Ying, as the future king of the South China Sea, wants to gather the power in his hands and take down the two satellite counties, although the means are cruel, in fact, they are still within the tolerance of everyone on the island, who calls him a descendant of the rain god?

And in the south of Wenchang County, it is Huitong County.

If Lu Ying wants to take this county again, I'm afraid that the landlords on the island will have to sigh in their hearts.

This kid doesn't want to stop if he doesn't take all the land on Qiongya Island, what is he going to do!

Qiu Yu raised this scruple, he didn't think that Lu Ying would lose, the Lu family's 6,000 sailors didn't eat dry food, if Lu Ying really wanted to do something, no one could stop him.

But he still felt that it was risky and that he had to think about it in the long run.

Lu Ying's face was puzzled: "The emperor has already bought Qiongya Island and the South China Sea to our family, why can't I show my strength and turn this island into what I like?" Qiu Yu, people who do big things can't hesitate. ”

Qiu Yu: "Then after you take the new land, you will need money and food to rectify the people's livelihood, right?" Where do these things come from? ”

Seeing that Lu Ying was silent, Qiu Yu suddenly remembered this child's style of acting.

If it is said that in the hearts of the landlords, the people are talking animals, in Yingying's heart, the landlords and gentry are also not people.

They are emergency food, and when they need it, they will be stabbed, and when they are not needed, they will be put there and wait.

At the same time, Lu Ying is also extremely aggressive, eager to expand as if deeply rooted in his blood, and now Lu Ying has determined the de jure status of the Lu family in the South China Sea, and has been filed with the emperor, so the time of the landlord came.

Seeing that Qiu Yu also fell silent, Lu Ying showed a cute smile: "Qiu Yu, you are the person who understands me, and you will definitely support me, right?" ”

After speaking, he twisted his small body and ran to find Lu Fang.

Qiu Yu looked at his back and sighed at Hua Meijing, Zhang Hua's mother and son, who were full of confusion: "Yingying means that he will not only fight in the future, but also take down other counties on Qiongya Island, Doctor Zhang, you should be going to set off with the army." ”

As Qiu Yu said, taking advantage of the fact that the people were oppressed very hard after the disaster, and it was most unlikely that the landlord would fool them into resisting the Lu family's naval army, Lu Ying pulled Lu Fang and happily said that the emperor bought Qiongya Island to their family, and in the future, everyone here will be surnamed Lu, and the other landlords should get out.

Lu Fang: Really? That's great!

The old man actually felt that Qiongya Island should be their family, after all, the Lu family had paid too much to defend the South China Sea over the years, including several of Lu Fang's brothers and sisters who died, but in the face of the imperial court, he had to acquiesce in the existence of the landlord and gentry, but if the emperor agreed with their rule, some things could be done.

In the end, it is the pirate king's family, and it is their instinct to expand, this instinct made Lu Fang and Lu Ying hit it off, and immediately summoned the Lu family's naval army, and notified the prefect of Qiongzhou and the counties and counties to hide at home and not go out, and then sharpened their knives and Huo Huo to emergency food.

Under the trend of interests, anyone will burst into action.

LΓΌ Ying even personally led his own soldiers (there were 200 guards in Wenchang in Ding'an, and 500 people who went to sea with the ship, a total of 700 people), and the task of conquering all the counties east of Qiongya Island was contracted.

The villain's first expedition took place, but his grandfather was extremely relieved to let him go.

A bloody storm was set off.

The most terrifying thing is that their efficiency is very high, and those landlords didn't expect the Lu family to suddenly attack, and they didn't even have time to gather the family to resist, so they were all taken down.

So Qiu Yu really doesn't have to go out to collect coconuts.

A few days later, Lu Ying, who had killed Qiongya Island, pulled all the coconuts that had been copied out, and stretched out his hand to Qiu Yu: "Well, give me money, if you give more, our family can also charter a boat to send you back." ”

Qiu Yu: "Do you still bring home delivery?"

”

Lu Ying still looks so cute and cute, and she can't see that his aggressiveness is so strong that he starts a war, like eating and drinking.

The child smiled: "What you said, if you want to improve your competitiveness in business, you have to serve more thoughtfully." ”

Qiu Yu looked at him, squatted down and asked, "Then what are you going to do next?" Tamanu Island is completely yours. ”

Lu Ying said as a matter of course: "Of course, the tax system on the island will be changed first." ”

To repeat again, Ying Ying is a child from the feudal ruling class, and his perspective on things is also from the position of a ruler, which is something that Qiu Yu and Lu Xiaoxuan both know.

Lu Ying is a fighter in the ruling class, and he does many things for his own benefit.

When Lu Ying told Qiu Yu that he wanted to change the tax, Qiu Yu knew that Lu Ying felt that he didn't have enough money in his hand, wanted to collect more taxes, and was unwilling to raise the taxes in Ding'an and Wenchang, so he had to make the plate bigger.

Abbreviation: Site expansion.

Qiu Yu even guessed why this kid didn't think the money was easy to get - he just sent so much money, food, salt, sugar, and cloth to his mother, no matter how much money Lu Ying's private house was, it would definitely hurt! He's in pain, so he's going to have to find something to make up for it from somewhere else!

All capitalists and exploiting classes have this virtue, and Lu Ying will be no exception!

Qiu Yu covered her face, squatted on the ground, and sighed deeply.

So why exactly? Obviously, Yingying exploits and enslaves everyone, but what he does is very beneficial to the people!

Teacher Ma, Teacher Lie, why haven't you been born yet, I really have a lot of questions for you to answer here!

Lu Ying saw Qiu Yu squatting with his head in his hands, and he also squatted down, but Qiu Yu squatting was a big lump, and he squatted down to be a small lump.

Xiao Tuanzi stretched out his hand and gently poked Qiu Yu's face, seeing that he didn't react, he hugged Qiu Yu's arm and shook it.

Qiu Yu only felt that his arm was partially wrapped in a soft lump, and he turned his head to look at Lu Ying's big moist eyes, and his heart trembled.

Forget it, Yingying is doing good things, and he's so cute, so let him go, and if a few emergency foods are unlucky to make Yingying happy, it's also good.
