Chapter 212 Khotan Double-Headed Eagle

The goose-feather-like snow finally fell. At this time, it was still in the third Little Ice Age in history, and it would not ease until the car god was about to burp.

However, this ice age happened to be the period when the Fergana Basin developed most rapidly.

Thanks to the topography of the basin, the temperature in the Fergana Basin at this time is one or two degrees higher than that in Anxi and Hezhong. Don't underestimate this two degrees. It will have a huge impact on agricultural production.

"As the saying goes, auspicious snow heralds a good year, but these years, there has been heavy snowfall every year, but we have never seen a good year.

But this place is really nice, it’s already December, and it’s only snowing like this, if it’s in Suiye, it’s probably like this falling a few months ago. "

Guo Tiance walked in with a lot of documents that needed to be reviewed. He looked at the heavy snow outside the window and sighed a few words in front of Zhang Zhao.

"My lord, Yu Supu has been buried according to your request, but what about his family?
Especially his eldest son, who is already 13 years old, the puppy has a grudge!When a certain man sent Yu Supu's body back, his eyes were terrifying! "

Zhang Zhao knew what Guo Tiance meant. In this era, it is normal for the winner to have everything and the loser to keep everything.

After Zhang Zhao entered the city of thirst, more than a hundred people from Yusupu's tribe were still alive and well. In the eyes of Guo Tiance and others, the king was a little too kind.

"Hmm! It seems that not only those killers, but even a civil servant like you, Guo Tiance, think that XX is too benevolent for a woman.

Well, let's follow the rules and raise them for another month. When the spring starts tomorrow, all the adult men will kill the flags! "

Zhang Zhao thought about it, and felt that there was nothing inhumane or inhumane to say. Since it is a rule, then don't break it.

If this Yu Supu Tang'er had done nothing evil, maybe killing him alone would be enough, but it's a pity that he didn't have that life.

Moreover, this guy cut off the nose and ears of the Khotan envoy, and he has already been on Li Shengtian's blacklist.

"By the way! Are there any outstanding wives and concubines among Yu Supu's?" Guo Tiance nodded and was about to go out when Zhang Zhao stopped him again.

Guo Tiance hurriedly looked at his heart, for fear that Zhang Zhao would think he had other impressions.

"Yu Supu's wife is old and decrepit, but the two newly married wives are both rich local families, one of them is beautiful, and the other is not bad, so I will inform Captain Pan to send her to the king's room .”

Guo Tiance replied cautiously, in fact, Yu Supu's wife is not ugly, but she is indeed a bit older, and she might not be 33. The two newly married concubines are quite beautiful, but Guo Tiance is not used to talking so much.

"What nonsense!" Zhang Zhao raised the writing brush that was not dipped in ink on the desk and threw it at Guo Tiance, and the brush hit Guo Tiance's head with a thud.

"Take good care of Yusupu's wife, concubine and daughter, and send them back to Shule together to the Great Sage Emperor."

This is Zhang Zhao's usual method, so that now everyone knows that King Zhang swears at you, kicks you, and scolds you a few times, which just means that King Zhang treats you as one of his own.

Sure enough, Guo Tiance, who was a little cautious just now because of the sensitive topic, let go immediately, and he patted his head.

"Your Majesty, Queen Cao may not be too happy, right?"

Uh, it seems that everyone knows about Cao Jinniang's reputation of being jealous, but Zhang Zhao knows how to measure it.

"Let's do it. The Great Sage is holding his breath. If you don't send Yu Supu's wife and concubine, Uncle will think that someone is eating alone again!"

Fuck!This is something a courtier can hear, Guo Tiance was startled, and hurried out in three steps at a time.

Zhang Zhao grinned. It turned out that Cao Yuanxin strictly restricted the people around Li Shengtian. There was indeed a reason for jealousy, but more importantly, it was to ensure her and Li Congde's status.

Ever since Zhang Zhao and Li Congde were made to be in-laws, Cao Yuanxin actually gave up on this aspect and continued to restrict Li Shengtian.

She even let her biggest rival in love, Li Shengtian's queen, be willing to let go, and the other women are nothing.

And Zhang Zhao also had his own considerations. The distance between Bahana and Khotan was more than a thousand miles, so it was unreasonable not to find a few rich local women for Li Shengtian to be queens.

Regarding the governance of Bahana, Zhang Zhao had already discussed it with Li Shengtian before sending troops.

After completely occupying this place, most of the most fertile farms will become Li Shengtian's private Wangzhuang, and a small part will be distributed to Zhang Zhao.

When leaving, Cao Yanmian was finally pregnant. If she gave birth to a son, the part belonging to Zhang Zhao would be granted to his son.

It is said to be a small part, but in fact it is not small. There are at least three 400,000 mu of good fields, and Li Shengtian will get more than 700,000 mu of land.

This is not much. You must know that in later generations, the Fergana Basin where the Khanna Kingdom is located has a total of nearly 20 million acres of arable land with sufficient water sources.

In this era, Zhang Zhao roughly calculated that there are at least about 7 million mu. If we reclaim the land, we can get 10 million mu no matter what.

As for most of the rest, they will be granted to various Amozhis from Khotan.

This is also the reason why they are willing to dispatch nearly [-] elite soldiers this time, because after the war, they will be divided into the Fergana Basin according to the number of troops sent and their military exploits, and their fief in Khotan will be gradually withdrawn.

In the end, there is still a small part, about [-] mu of land, which will be distributed to Zhang Zhao's soldiers.

Although his purpose of forming the Fengtian Army was to return east with him, but on the battlefield, it was inevitable that there would be some damage.

Those who died in battle are easy to say, Zhang Zhao has been strictly registered, and the pension and other things will be sent to his designated heirs.

But what about the injured?If these people are willing to return east, he will definitely be willing to take them with them.

But after returning to the east, Zhang Zhao will face more powerful enemies, and it is estimated that he will not have too many resources to give them.

But staying in the Fergana Basin is different. For example, if your leg is injured and it is not conducive to walking, then Zhang Zhao can directly seal you hundreds of thousands of acres of land according to the credit, and then find a wife from the surrounding locals .

In the end, the slaves captured from Tianzhu were divided into ten or so. The life of such a master is definitely more comfortable than returning to the east.

And it wasn't Zhang Zhao's thought of patting his head, but a wounded soldier had already made this request to him.

Why do people follow you and work hard for it?Isn't it just for food and clothing and even prosperity and wealth!

Therefore, the final political structure of Fergana is almost settled.

Due to being far away from the mainland of Khotan, Amozhi and meritorious ministers in Khotan can only be entrusted to this place. Zhang Zhao will also give up the fief of Polu Prefecture and transfer the fief here.

In the future politics of Khotan, there will be a situation where the emperor and the two kings coexist.

When the Crown Prince of Khotan becomes an adult, he will receive an official title of His Royal Highness, and he will use this title to go to the Fergana Basin to take charge of the emperor's private royal estate of hundreds of thousands of acres and handle all the government affairs of Fergana .

And the second king, Zhang Zhao, the deputy king, will be retained, and after Zhang Zhaodong returns, it will be passed on to his designated son.

But this son and his descendants will settle in the Fergana Basin, and will serve as the largest vassals in the Fergana region besides the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin, assisting the crown prince in governing this place.

In other words, Khotan had to implement the double-headed eagle management model because it was too far away to manage.

The entire Fergana Basin will completely become a real feudal model, tentatively designated as Prince (Crown Prince) - Deputy Prince - Hou - Bo - Amozhi - Burke - Governor seven levels.

The crown prince enjoys more than 800,000 mu of arable land and the corresponding fiefdoms of mountains, forests and grasslands, and the deputy king can get 400,000 mu.

Hou has a maximum of [-] mu, Bo has a maximum of [-] mu, Amozhi has a maximum of [-] mu, Burke has a maximum of [-] mu, a governor has a maximum of [-] mu, and a minimum of [-] mu.

But this is only the size of the fief, and they do not belong to each other. They all directly obey the crown prince.

Among them, the vassals of Amozhi and above can also seal out their own retainers in their own land.

In addition to paying a certain amount of tribute to the Great Sage Emperor every year, he must also obey the call of the kingdom, and send troops to fight with the Great Sage Emperor according to the size of the fiefdom.

In addition to these titles, a large number of landowners of more than a thousand to several hundred acres directly belonging to the Great Sage Emperor will be conferred, and these people will form the political foundation of the entire Fergana Basin.

Before the crown prince was a minor, Fergana was handed over to the deputy king to govern. After the crown prince became an adult, the deputy king returned the governance power to the crown prince.

After the crown prince returned to the position of inheriting the emperor of Khotan, the next crown prince was still young, and the deputy king would act as his deputy in governing power.

This is a political system that is extremely similar to the Japanese shogunate period, especially the Tokugawa shogunate period, with many problems and hidden dangers.

But there is no way, the distance between Shule and Kesai City is too far, nearly two thousand miles, and there are snow-capped mountains on the way, so it is impossible to establish an effective rule.

The alternate governance model of the Crown Prince and the Vice-Prince is also very problematic. If the Vice-Prince is cruel, it is not impossible for Yu Supu to cede land and stand on his own.

But generally speaking, the possibility is not too great, because the entire Fergana Basin is in the small cycle from Tianzhu to Chang'an created by Zhang Zhao.

The emperor of Khotan, located in Shule, holds the crucial trade route. If the vice king dares to rebel, he can cut it off immediately, and let the merchants go to Tianzhu.

All the hustle and bustle in the world is for profit. If this king wants to make a large number of feudal lords follow him to rebel, how much profit will he have to give?

If you can take out so many benefits at will, why should you rebel?

Of course, the most important thing is that Zhang Zhao's ultimate goal is to return to the Central Plains and build a unified dynasty.

As long as the Central Plains is unified, Fergana and even Suiye, who will rule and how the benefits will be distributed, will not be a matter of the Central Plains court.

At that time, the royal family of Khotan will be Zhang Zhao's son-in-law line, and Vice King Fergana and Sui Ye will be the sons, so what's there to argue about?

Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to go to Persia, the Great Plains of Ukraine, and Tianzhu to reap the benefits?
