Xiaoguangong

Chapter 356 It's Not Dangerous

"So... now Liangzhou is initially settled?"

Guan Ping looked at Chang Diao with a smirk on his face and Pang De who bowed to the ground with a respectful face in front of him, and heaved a long sigh of relief.

Their rations were in an emergency, but Pound delivered a large amount of rations, which greatly eased their urgent need.

Most importantly, both Pang De and Cheng Gongying came.

These two people had great prestige, and their surrender greatly improved the combat effectiveness of Guan Ping's soldiers and horses, allowing him to let go of all his previous concerns and start threatening those wealthy families to hand over more land and food.

In the past dynasties, the court with more official land can gain absolute advantages. The land annexation in Liangzhou is not too strong under the influence of the war. Guan Ping just used this army to make some changes.

"Turning the fields?" When they heard that Guan Ping was going to farm the fields, everyone turned pale with shock and felt sorry for them.

Farm farming is one of Cao Jun's characteristic tyranny. Most people know Yunshan's identity, and they also know that Yunshan has always been quite disgusted with it. Unexpectedly, Yunshan would take the initiative to do such a thing now.

Is the next step to expropriate widows?

Guan Ping smiled bitterly and said:
"Where did you go? There have been farming activities in the past, but Cao Gong made it look bad, which caused people's resentment. Granting land to the people is a benevolent government. Why should it be so.

These lands are still owned by the imperial court, and they are granted to the common people to farm and pay taxes and corvee. This can reduce the sale of land and keep the good land in their own hands. There are only a few people in Liangzhou who planted it for us, and there are fewer people who farmed it for those wealthy families. If you want to incite the Qiang and Hu to cause chaos, you have to have talents. "

"With no one to farm for them, their power will naturally gradually weaken. With the land, those Qiang people will not continue to rebel. In the future, they will gradually accept everything from the big man and become the people of the big man. After a few decades In [-], Liangzhou was pacified, so we don't need to fight here."

All contradictions are human-earth contradictions.

There are not many people in the land of Liangzhou, but the land here is not as good as that in the Central Plains. The crop yield is not high, and it cannot support too many people. Qiang Hu rebelled many times.

Farming is not the best way in the long run, but it is the most effective way in the short term.

Anyway, there are only so many people, if the hidden population of these wealthy families is willing to plant official land, Guan Ping does not believe that anyone would dare to take them back.

In the era when there was no large-scale machinery and equipment, even if those rich families had a lot of land, they would throw it away if they couldn't plant it. At that time, Guan Ping could gradually receive it in his own hands in the name of reclaiming wasteland. Cooperation can prevent one's own weakness.

Pang De thought to himself that this idea is very good, but he is only a defeated general, and his soldiers are regarded as a group of captives who surrendered. I am afraid that there is no such good opportunity to get such benefits.

"General Pang." Guan Ping said.

"There will be a crime." Pound hurriedly saluted.

"You are familiar with the lands of Liangzhou, so I will entrust you with the work of cultivating the fields.

If anyone refuses to obey the order and obstructs us from reclaiming wasteland, he will be killed.

Well, before the Xingguo War, Agui had been destroyed, and the soldiers under Chang Junshi worked hard, and the land of Xingguo was reclaimed by Chang Junshi, but Chang Junshi was afraid that he would not want to live in Xingguo for a long time. The matter of reclaiming fertile land here, let General Pang bother , During the production and payment of taxes, I will distribute the taxes to the Chang Jun Division, so you don't have to wait to pay them. "

"As for the corvee...Liangzhou has just been pacified, and the tax should be light. Reclaiming wasteland is a big deal, enough to withstand the corvee. These places...uh, what's wrong with you, General Pang?"

Pang De stared blankly at Guan Ping, unable to say a word for a long time.

What is the purpose of joining the army?
Of course not because Pound likes to kill people, nor is it because Pound has any great ambitions.

He first joined the army purely for food.

It's not just him, ninety-nine percent of the Liangzhou army is there for food.

The local Hao clan and a large number of Qiang and Di tribes occupied the best land, and the officials of the Han court were inappropriate one by one, which led to corruption in Yongliang and Liangzhou, and the lives of the people were miserable.

Beigong Boyu was indeed an uprising at the beginning, and he really wanted to lead the people to fight for a piece of the sky, eat food, and not starve to death, so that he could sweep Yongliang in an instant.

As for his brain operation later, it was a frequent mistake made by uprising leaders who had no overall view, and he cannot be completely blamed.

Going to plunder can bring you prosperity and wealth, and going to plunder can make your family have no worries about food and drink. looting.

If they can be given enough land to cultivate, the imperial court can provide relief in time during the catastrophe, so that the people can survive, plus the trade on the Silk Road...

So whoever rebels is the one who is sick.

Pound sighed in a hoarse voice, then fell to the ground:
"Thank you, General. On behalf of Erlang from Liangzhou, I thank the General for his great kindness!"

The preliminary design has been finalized, and now it's time for Pound to act as a black-faced man, asking for food and grass to help the army.

Next, he thought of another question.

"Mr. Chang?"

"Well?"

"How did you say so much food came from?"

"I sent it?" Chang Diao said stupidly.

He said that he really didn't keep up with the rhythm at all, and he is still immersed in the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe—Chang Diao thought before that he would be at the forefront of the army, and if something happened to the army, he would hurry up It is also safer to escape to Jincheng and join Yunshan.

The soldiers in the rear did not listen to their persuasion, and were worried all the way. After rushing to Jincheng, they found that it was as calm and calm as the military commander had expected.

This greatly enhanced Chang Diao's prestige, further undermined Chang Diao's retirement plan, and made him feel quite a stomachache now.

Guan Ping knew Chang Diao's thoughts, he didn't want to stay in the cold place of Liangzhou at all, and Guan Ping was going to finish all this before, so he casually made a memorial to criticize Chang Diao's incompetence, and tried to get Chang Diao dismissed.

But Chang Diao's contribution this time is too great, it can even be said that he is on the top of Yunshan Mountain, so he can only skip this matter for the time being, and ask Chang Diao humbly if he knows the origin of this grain and grass.

But Chang Diao, the school commander, has all the information in Lu Hong's hands, and of course he doesn't know things that Lu Hong doesn't know, so he can only answer casually:

"Perhaps Ma Chao and Zhang Lu bit the dog, and maybe they intercepted some food from Zhang Lu and came back."

Yang Qiu smiled and said:
"How is this possible? If Ma Chao has the ability to steal Zhang Lu's military rations, Zhang Lu must come to seek revenge. If he leaves Hanzhong, how dare he go back?"

When Zhugeqian and Hao Zhao heard that Yang Qiu was so disrespectful to Chang Diao, they all looked angry, and Lu Hong even sneered:

"Then what does General Yang think? Do you know more about military affairs than General Chang?"

Yang Qiu rolled his eyes, saying that you can say whatever you want.

Guan Ping laughed and said:

"Don't hurt your temper. Of course, I believe what Chang Junshi said. If it is true what Chang Junshi said, I am quite happy.

Speaking of which, I first wanted to attack Hanzhong, but I didn't expect that Ma Chao and Han Sui would cause chaos afterwards. I came to Guanzhong, and now I'm here again.

Now Yongliang is at the beginning of peace, but Hanzhong has been hanging alone, and Ma Chao is still there. I am going to play the court and attack Hanzhong.At that time, I can ask Chang Junshi to plan something. "

All the generals nodded and said:
"There is only one place in Hanzhong, and with the joint efforts of Chang Junshi and General Yun, it will naturally be able to break through in a short time. Zhang Lu has a lot of food. When we fly to Hanzhong, we will surely win a big victory!"

Chang Diao: ...

I just said it casually, if others take it seriously, why do you take it seriously?

Can you still go back? Yongliang has settled down and wants to fight Hanzhong. It is impossible to fight Liu Bei after defeating Hanzhong, right?

Are you Guan Ping?
After slandering her, Chang Diao was also very helpless. Seeing the excitement of the crowd, she could only play tricks and say:
"Hmph, how can General Yun go there in person in Hanzhong? My subordinate Erlang has not done any meritorious service this time, so there is no need for General Yun to go, I can do it myself!"

Hao Zhao and the others suddenly showed ecstasy on their faces.

Before, they always felt that Chang Junshi was too cautious, which made them lose many opportunities to make meritorious deeds. They didn't expect that Chang Junshi was finally going to attack Hanzhong now, and the opportunity to make meritorious deeds finally arrived!

Chang Diao thought to himself that this time I will lead the army personally, and I must exclude everyone. The road to Hanzhong is very difficult, there is only one road in Qishan, hey, I will not take it, I have to take the small road, and I will suffer heavy losses. I ask for it myself Demotion, let's see who can stop me this time!
