Han Dao world

Chapter 862
When the Son of Heaven marched into Jizhou, he did not encircle Yecheng immediately, but carried out Dutian in the southern counties of Wei County, which caused a thousand waves for a while.

No one doubted the determination of the imperial court to save the land.

The degree of field must be measured, the difference is only in how to measure it.

It is not difficult to choose whether to cooperate with the imperial court to reduce losses as much as possible in exchange for more benefits, or to refuse to cooperate and be directly deprived of all properties by the imperial court.

All of a sudden, more counties and counties applied for the trial of Du Tian.There are various proposals, some of which are even absurd, but those who oppose Dutian have disappeared.

Liu Xie ignored these, and transferred them all to Situ's Mansion, which was handled by Yang Biao.

All his focus is on Jizhou, especially Wei County.

He wants to treat Wei County as a test field, a model, and then gradually spread it to Jizhou.

Anyone who has some knowledge of the history of land-to-household distribution in the early days of the reform knows how much benefit the laborers' enthusiasm can produce.Renting the land of a big landlord for tenant farming and cultivating one's own land are completely different things.

This change is visible to the naked eye.

The people who were assigned the land quickly started preparing for spring plowing. The whole family went out together before dawn, and they had to work in the fields for a while after dark.Even if they do nothing but sit on the ground, they feel happy.

Those who say that the poor are poor because they are lazy must blush when they see this scene.

When Liu Xie had a little spare time, he took the casual riders and officials around him to visit the people near Daying. In addition to investigating and understanding the implementation of the policy, he also let the people around him feel the changes in the morale of the people.

Many people did not really understand the significance of attacking Yecheng, nor did they understand why Liu Xie arrived in Jizhou and was not in a hurry to encircle Yecheng, but was busy promoting Dutian.

The longer the time dragged on, the more supplies the army consumed, and a quick decision was in line with the art of war.

Liu Xie wants to reverse this concept.

"This is a revolution, not just a war."

One day in Mengchun, Liu Xie stood at the head of the field, looked at the busy farmers, and said quietly to Zhuge Liang and others.

Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment. "The four peoples are all gentlemen, men and women are no different. Your Majesty has pushed the idea that the master can teach without distinction, and will surely usher in a new era. After five hundred years, when a new sage emerges, what else can there be?" What about changes?"

Liu Xie turned his head and glanced at Zhuge Liang, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.

"Maybe it's going to the nine heavens to catch the moon, and going down to the five oceans to catch turtles."

"Wuyang?" Zhuge Liang was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Liu Xie suspiciously.

Liu Xie smiled without saying a word.

-

"Boom!" With a loud noise, the judge overturned the case in front of him.

The pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the case were scattered all over the place, and the ink was in a mess.

The judge's face was darker than ink blots.

The emperor entered Jizhou, but he was not in a hurry to besiege the city, but to promote Dutian.His hometown bears the brunt, manors, fields, and all real estate are deprived of it, which is like ransacking the house.

Although expected, subtle changes in tempo can have an immeasurable impact, and even directly change the outcome.

The first is that the course of the war will be longer than he expected.

Although there is a large amount of grain stored in Yecheng, there is a limit after all.If the emperor is not in a hurry to attack, but to spend the fields first, after the autumn harvest, he may take food on the spot, and use the food in Jizhou to maintain the expenditure of the army, so as not to affect other states and counties.

Those poor people who had just acquired the land would not refuse the emperor's request for food. They would donate all the food except rations, and even spared no effort to support the emperor in fighting to win the final victory.

At that point, the emperor can almost indefinitely besiege the city until he runs out of food.

The Shandong scholar-bureaucrats he had placed high hopes on responded with a high probability that they would fail.

It doesn't involve their interests, so why should they support Jizhou at the risk of family ruin?
The judge, who was originally full of confidence, suddenly felt hopeless and confused.

Tian Feng came in from the outside, seeing the situation in the hall, he couldn't help but look at the judge sympathetically, bent down to pick up a mansion newspaper, and dusted it off.

"Zhengnan, you haven't fought yet, how can you mess yourself up?"

The examiner breathed a sigh of relief, waved his sleeves, and signaled the attendants to tidy up.He walked to Tian Feng's side. "Brother Yuan Hao, although the little emperor is young, he is very experienced in using soldiers. I was a little caught off guard by this move. Tell me, we still have a chance, right?"

"Whether there is a chance, you have no turning back." Tian Feng said unhurriedly: "Even if you are willing to surrender now, your property will not come back."

"Yes, but..." The judge hesitated to speak.

"What you are worried about is not yourself, but the morale of the army, right?"

The examiner nodded, a little embarrassed to look into Tian Feng's eyes.

He made up his mind to go all the way to darkness.But he was not sure whether the others would be shaken.If those people were afraid and wanted to surrender to the court in order to keep a livelihood, his troops would be much smaller all of a sudden.

"Don't worry, most of those who can come to Yecheng at this time are like you..." Tian Feng hesitated for a moment. "The same wishful thinking, and will not accept being satisfied with food and clothing like ordinary people. Moreover, even if they surrender now, they may not be able to retain a piece of land."

"Is it?"

"The emperor did this to prove that it is beneficial to save the land. But Jizhou is not Liangzhou, which is sparsely populated, nor is it the Central Plains where the household registration has been greatly reduced after many wars. There is not much idle land in Jizhou, which may not be able to satisfy the emperor. requirements."

"So at this time, he is more willing to kill us?" The judge's eyes suddenly became fierce.

Tian Feng smiled bitterly. "Zhengnan, you are too murderous."

"Is not it?"

"How many people are there in your Shen family? How many people support you? Even if there are [-] people, how big is the difference to Jizhou? For these lands that do not affect the overall situation, kill [-] people, Do you think the emperor is so cruel?"

The judge was also confused, and looked at Tian Feng suspiciously. "Brother Yuan Hao, what exactly do you want to say?"

Tian Feng waved his hand to signal the judge to be calm. "The Son of Heaven may not have the intention to kill people, but he certainly has the intention to warn the scholars and bureaucrats in the world, especially the veterans in the court, not to think that he is young and can be bullied."

"Who else dares to bully him?" The judge sneered. "After Zhang Jili's death, those old officials in the court are as docile as raccoon slaves. Who dares to protest? If so, he is still not satisfied. I really don't know what else those people can do."

Tian Feng sighed.

Jupei has a strong temper. He feels that the courtiers are as docile as slaves, but he doesn't know how much effort the courtiers have put in to fight for power with the emperor.In his eyes, maybe everyone should be like him, even if Yuan Shao died, he would not let it go, and coerced others to fight together, and he would die together, that is the real warrior.

But this is not bravery, but stubbornness.

Too much, he couldn't understand this sentence at all.

"Zhengnan, you can't ask everyone to fight against the emperor like you. Just as the emperor can't ask Liu Bei, Yuan Shu, and Sun Rui to be like him every step of the way."

The reviewer rolled his eyes. "You mean, Liu Bei, Yuan Shu, and Shi Sun Rui will be eager to march?"

Tian Feng was a little helpless.The judge only listens to what he wants to hear, but ignores what he really wants to say.

The trial match was overjoyed. "In that case, wouldn't I be able to defeat them one by one? Brother Yuan Hao, tell me, who will go to Ye City first?"
