Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 180 Someone sued me?

Inviting Wang Ruohai to take a seat, Wang Xiaolie said: "I went to Dengzhou for punishment, and nothing happened. I came to Xinye today, what happened?"

Wang Ruohai did not speak, but handed over the pleading paper in his hand.

Wang Xiaolie just looked at the paper, held it in his hand, and frowned.After a long time, he said: "How about raising the desire for punishment?"

Wang Ruohai said: "Zhang Jun is your favorite general, everyone knows it. I want to kill him, but unfortunately I don't have any soldiers in my hand, and I don't have any people to use. But the government doesn't care about killing good people like this, so how should I deal with it? To the people!"

Wang Xiaolie sighed.Said: "If the matter is true, it is impossible to ignore it."

Wang Ruohai sneered: "A small man traveled hundreds of miles to sue me. After observing, he thought the matter was false? If I hadn't had no soldiers and no rights, I would have gone directly to the Xinyang Army and executed Zhang Jun!"

Wang Xiaolie waved his hand: "Putting punishment, don't say such angry words. If the matter is true, how to solve it is the most important thing. After receiving the complaint, you should ask the person who complained, what is the situation of the Xinyang Army now?"

Wang Ruohai said: "Why ask me for observation? Zhang Jun is your favorite general, is there anything you don't know?"

Looking at Wang Ruohai, Wang Xiaolie felt a little helpless.Said: "Xinyang Army is different from other states. The road here is far away. I really don't know many things. You don't have to worry about the sentence. If what is said in the pleadings is true, I will never cover up Zhang Jun. Now the most The important thing is, how much can you believe in this matter? If you believe it, I will transfer Zhang Jun back and confront the person who complained. But if the people exaggerate the truth, wouldn’t I be ridiculed when I transferred the general back? Such a big thing , at least have some certainty."

Seeing Wang Xiaolie's sincere attitude, Wang Ruohai's tone softened: "I asked Ge Xiong, who made the complaint, and judging from his words, the matter is probably true. Moreover, Zhang Jun is not only against the Ge family, but according to Ge Xiong said, the whole army of Xinyang Army, all wealthy families, will not be harmed by Zhang Jun!"

Wang Xiaolie held his forehead and thought for a while.Said: "Okay, I believe in imposing punishment. However, in this extraordinary period, it is impossible for you to go to the Xinyang Army to try the case. In this year, Zhijun was arrested, and the entire Xinyang Army was in chaos. Why don't you wait a few minutes? On that day, I transferred Zhang Jun back."

Wang Ruohai looked at Wang Xiaolie, saw that his expression was normal, and finally agreed.In these states, without Wang Xiaolie's consent, there is no way to try the case, so he can only agree.As long as Zhang Jun comes back, Wang Xiaolie can't shirk.

Wang Xiaolie wanted Wang Ruohai to live in Xinye for a few days, how could Wang Ruohai be in that mood?I went back to Dengzhou the next day.

On the same day, Wang Xiaolie dismissed the Guanghua Army, leaving only Qiande County and incorporating it into Xiangyang Prefecture.Yu Huan was ordered to replace Zhang Jun, and Quan knew the Xinyang Army.Zhang Jun was ordered to wait for Yu Huan to return to Xinye immediately after arriving in the Xinyang Army.Together with Niu Gao and Shao Ling, he will concentrate on military training in the future.

After sending out the order, Wang Xiaolie sat in the study, feeling helpless for a while.Yesterday Wang Ruohai came with the pleading paper, and Wang Xiaolie believed it.When it was difficult a few days ago, only the Xinyang Army had enough money and food in several states.Where did Zhang Jun get his money from?Too busy at the moment, Wang Xiaolie didn't bother to investigate this matter.Now that I think about it, I'm afraid that this method was used to get it from the people under the rule.

Now that there is a shortage of money, Wang Xiaolie's method of governing the region is to attack the powerful.But blows are blows, not indiscriminate blows.The tyrants attacked are mainly those who have great power in the local area, control the local economy, and influence the implementation of government orders.Zhang Jun's method is obviously to expand this policy, and anyone with money will be attacked.No distinction, no reason, no discrimination.

This is not the later generation's attack on the local tyrants to divide the land, and it cannot completely collapse the social order.Even if it is the land tyrants who beat the local tyrants in later generations, it is the local tyrants who are attacked, not the landlords.However, in the era before the founding of New China, it was difficult for normal landlords to survive, and there were very few big landlords in the countryside who were not blood-stained by the people.However, in places with few people and a lot of land, such as the Northeast, the same policy will not be effective, and it will be difficult to win the support of the people.

At this time, China still has a small population and a large land, and the actual situation cannot be compared with that of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China.Except for a few big landlords with official status who occupy vast land, most of the small landlords are not very exploitative.The exploitation was so severe that the peasants went to reclaim the fields by themselves.

Local tyrants have the greatest impact on the local area because they control the local economy and affect the governance of the central government.Merely occupying land for lease is not considered a heinous crime.At this time, there is a large amount of idle land, and there is no need to deprive the landlords of the land, and the government can reclaim a large amount of official land.

Zhang Jun did such a thing, leaving Wang Xiaolie speechless.He didn't think about land reform, didn't want to attack the rich in society, but Zhang Jun decided to do it on his own.If he really wanted to wipe out the rich landlords, he didn't know what he would do.

What can be done?Zhang Jun cannot be allowed to act arbitrarily at the local level, but he cannot be punished too severely.Wang Ruohai could not ignore his opinion as a punishment.These days, Wang Ruohai has cooperated enough.We can only transfer Zhang Jun back and give him a light punishment to make him realize his mistake.Wang Ruohai also made an explanation, and there will be a long time to cooperate in the future.

It was almost July, Yu Huan was in the Xinyang Army, and Zhang Jun and his mother returned to Xinye.

Wang Xiaoli ordered people to prepare food and wine, and greeted Zhang Jun in the back office.

Zhang Jun sat down and saw that there were no serving soldiers around him.He got up and poured wine for Wang Xiaolie, and poured it himself.He raised his glasses with both hands and said: "I haven't seen the observation for many days, and I miss it because of my humble job. Borrowing flowers to present Buddha, this glass of wine is for the observation!"

Wang Xiaolie motioned for Zhang Jun to put down his glass.Said: "Do you know why I called you back all of a sudden?"

Zhang Jundao: "There are nearly 2 soldiers in Xinye now, and there are only two generals Shao Ling and Niu Gao. I'm afraid they won't be able to command them. Although the humble staff is young, they are quite familiar with military affairs. For more than a year, no matter whether it is study or training , are considered qualified. Observation calls me back, so it is natural to command the troops.”

Wang Xiaolie shook his head: "You are doing your part, thinking that you can be compared with Shao Ling and Niu Gao? If you need someone to come back to lead the army, I would rather call Cao Zhiyan back. To be honest, a few days ago, someone was raising a sentence The Secretary sued you!"

Zhang Jun was taken aback: "Is someone suing me? Suing me for what?"

Wang Xiaolie said: "Let me ask you, in the Xinyang Army, what have you done these days?"

Zhang Jun rubbed his head: "Observation, what did I do? In the Xinyang Army, I have enough soldiers and food, and the soldiers and civilians are safe. In addition to the 300 people in the headquarters, I have trained another [-] troops, and the food and grass are plentiful. What are you going to tell me?"

Wang Xiaolie said: "A few days ago, the other states were short of money, but your Xinyang Army did not. Where did the money come from?"

Hearing this, Zhang Jun laughed and said, "Of course the money and food come from the common people. The humble officer knows how to watch his temper, and he always treats the common people kindly and doesn't take anything from them. The humble officer also does the same in the Xinyang Army. All the money and food needed come from the local government. Here come the local tyrants."

"Are you sure they all came from local tyrants?" Wang Xiaolie was also a little helpless.This is a chaotic time, and many laws and regulations are useless.Even compared with the official army, what Zhang Jun did was not outrageous.In other places, it is foolish for people to complain.At this time, which Yamen will accept this kind of lawsuit?However, Wang Xiaolie is different from others, and always wants to create a feeling of peacetime.Zhang Jun's lawsuit had to be taken care of.

Seeing that Zhang Jun was still at a loss, Wang Xiaolie said, "I'll tell you the truth, there is Ge Xiong in Luoshan County under your rule, and he submitted a complaint to the criminal prosecution department. He said that you threatened the people and took their wealth by force. Wang Ti After the punishment was approved, you came to Xinye to find me, and then you were transferred back."

Zhang Jun's eyes widened when he heard this. He really didn't expect that he would be involved in such a lawsuit at this time.After all, Wang Xiaolie is a warlord who recognizes the court.The warlord army, the Xinyang Army under his own rule, is already a rare good place.Changing individuals is not only about robbing the people of money, but also forcing the people to join the army.If you do this by yourself, the people will sue you.In other places, people's lawsuits should not pile up into mountains.
