My lord, my lord, the emperor can't just abandon us like this!During the time of Emperor Taizu Gao, we were designated as military households, and it was not easy for generations. Why did the imperial court change the regulations and drive us out?Sir, although the villain is old, but in another year, the villain can be discharged from the army and let his son take over. Otherwise...or the villain will retire early. My son is very strong. He can fight, he can fight! "

Zhang Jun is now focusing on suppressing the bandits, and handed over the details of the military system reform to a few of his subordinates. Ding Yu and Tang Jie are listed as fellow commanders, second only to him. There are grievances in the church, but you can't leave them alone, and the fault is on your side. Therefore, Tang Jie, like Ding Yu, often leaves the commander's office to patrol the local guards and solve problems in time.

To say that reform is difficult, in fact, the most difficult thing lies in people's thinking.

The life of the farmer is worse than that of the tenants, so that some farmers often flee the guard with their families, but now that Xia Xun is going to find another job for them, some people feel panicked as if the sky is falling. The farmer’s rice bowl is not enough to eat, but it is an iron rice bowl after all, and the stick is solid in their hands. They are asked to contract and lease the land so that they can fend for themselves in the future. Some people inevitably feel uneasy about this uncertain future.

And some veterans who were originally soldiers, but now have no conditions to continue to perform their obligations as soldiers, are making more trouble. In their view, the households in Liaodong are not as rich as those in the pass, not to mention that the land is allocated for free. For them, although the officials of the chief envoy and the yamen have made it very clear to them, before the harvest comes, the guard will still take care of their food and lodging, and help them carefully analyze the income they get from farming. Not good, and they were out of the military at that time, and they could still do part-time jobs and do some business during the slack season. These subsidies plus the income from farming were hundreds of times better than being a big soldier.

But whatever you say, whether it is true or not, you will only find out next autumn. If you are stripped of the military household today, you will no longer be a member of the guard tomorrow. If something happens by then, who will guarantee it? Their future livelihood?With this worry, as long as someone complains and calls for grievances, there will be some people who seem to be right and wrong to follow suit. In fact, because the life of the farmer is not easy, not many of them really have a strong desire to resist, and they just confess instinctively. , yearning for reassurance and reassurance over and over again.

For this mentality, Wanshiyu, who has climbed up step by step from a small official, and many officials under him who were promoted from the local area, know it well, so they all help the generals of the guard, explaining, appeasing, and calming everyone down again and again. Emotions.But Tang Jie was not like this, Tang Jie reprimanded in a deep voice: "What are you shouting for? Children who cry have milk, don't they?" One sentence calmed down the soldiers complaining, Tang Jie glanced at them coldly With a glance, he said, "How many of you are farmers? The local farmers in Liaodong have enough land to support a family, but what about you? When Emperor Taizu Gao made great efforts to open up a large area in Liaodong. How much of the fertile land is now abandoned? How many fields are abandoned every year without planting, and the barren and long grass are no longer like wild land?

snort!You stubborn people, when you were in the guards, you just perfunctory and refused to work diligently to force the court to transport grain from the pass every year - if it weren't for this, the emperor decided to separate the army and tell you to fend for yourself? "

After reprimanding the farmer, he turned to the soldiers who were classified as farmers and said disdainfully: "Look at your virtues, the old, the disabled, and the disabled? Can you still fight? Your Excellency, the governor of Liaodong, yes If you want to fight big battles and establish big battles, can you rely on you trash to make it happen? The governor will clear you out so that the troops can be freed up to recruit young and strong warriors from Liaodong, understand? A group of trash who occupy the latrines and don’t shit. This is an imperial decree, this is a military order, if you dare to babble, I will cut off your heads!"

Tang Jie's words angered those veterans, and the farmer was fine with it. The most violent reaction was originally the dismissed soldiers. Tang Jie insulted them, and they became even more angry.

A slightly lame veteran rushed forward angrily, tore off his skirt with a "chi la", revealing several criss-crossing scars on his front, and said tremblingly, "Master Tongzhi! You say the villain is trash? I became a soldier at the age of 17, and I have stayed in Liaodong for more than 30 years. I have fought against Tartars, Jurchens, and bearded horse bandits in Liaodong. I worked it out for the imperial court, and now my lord says I’m trash, so I’m going to kick me away! It’s done, my lord, the villain has never resisted orders in his life, and today he will resist your imperial decree and your military order , you kill my head, you kill!"

The veteran took off his military cap, revealing his gray hair, and handed his head to Tang Jie.Tang Jie was annoyed, pushed his head away in disgust, and cursed: "You bastard, are you going to play a rascal with me? Come, someone, tie him up for me and whip him forty times!"

Tang Jie gave an order, and all the soldiers swarmed up like wolves and tigers. Those dismissed soldiers immediately blew up their nests and swarmed up to protect the old soldier. When they scolded each other, some people were holding knives and guns, and they were agitated, and they were about to stir up mutiny. Seeing this, Tang Jie was secretly happy. He was about to add another fire to completely turn these soldiers back, when suddenly an official ran over to the side. Son, the two hat wings flickered, and shouted anxiously: "Everyone, don't mess up, don't mess up!"

That person is Kaiyuan Tongpan Moke, Amu'er has been handed over to Zhang Jun, and he doesn't have much to do.

Due to the shortage of manpower in the chief envoy, there were no corresponding officials in place for many positions, so Wanshiyu also arrested him. He was originally an official of Kaiyuan Bingbei Daohu Section, and he often dealt with garrison soldiers. , is also familiar with their affairs, which is of great help to Wanshiyu.

Tang Jie saw that it was him who came, and knew that it was someone from Xia Xun's side, so he didn't dare to blatantly instigate, but just stood there angrily as if he had been offended.Every official has a different style of dealing with affairs. As long as Xia Xun doesn't catch him deliberately causing trouble, you can at most say that he does things in a simple and rude way, but you can't help him. The battlefield is here.

Mo Ke first greeted Tang Jie with a smile, then turned to the soldiers who were about to start a fire, and said loudly: "Everyone, don't get excited, this truth has been said a lot, why don't you understand it? Master Tang is also annoyed by your stubbornness No way, just a few words of reprimand, what's the matter, I've been a soldier all my life, if I'm really going to lose my life at the end of the year, if I'm convicted of inciting mutiny by the court, not only will I have bad luck, but what about my wife and children?"

Temporarily suppressing everyone's anger, Mo Ke said: "Your worries are unnecessary. Think about it, now the imperial court reopened the government office in Liaodong? Why did it withdraw before? Because there are no people to care about! Now Opening a government and building a yamen, will the people be missing? If the people have no way to live, can the government still stand? If the government does not have this spectrum in mind, it will not agree to the reform of the military system. After you change the military households to civilian households, As long as you work hard, are you afraid of running out of food?"

Mo Ke said to the angry veteran again: "Brother, you don't have to worry about cattle, birch plows, and grain seeds. As for the residence, no one forced you to move out before the new house was built. As for the land, the cultivated fields in the army are assigned to you. Tell me, this is not enough? Mr. Wan said, except for the distribution of agricultural tools and grain seeds according to the number of acres of land you contracted and the number of people in your family, and when taxes are set, According to the length of your years in the army, you will reduce it as appropriate, think about it, can you still starve your belly?" Mo Ke's words made sense and quickly calmed down the conflict.But similar things kept happening. Wherever Tang Jie went, it was like a torch approaching a dry firewood sprinkled with oil. It always caused incidents of one kind or another, and even caused several small armed conflicts.

Xia Xun knew about these things, but he didn't care at all.Recently, Xia Xun has been very leisurely, completely acting as a shopkeeper, handing over military affairs to Zhang Jun, and handing over civil affairs to Wanshiyu, while he himself suddenly became concerned about foreign affairs, culture and education.

Xia Xun often went to the government school to inquire about the teachings of the recruited gentlemen. Nowadays, some Confucian scholars in Liaodong, especially the learned and talented gentlemen from rich families, have gone to the government school to teach under Zhang Xitong's unremitting efforts. The civil officials who went to Liaodong made extensive publicity, called friends and friends, and recruited scribes from the customs to teach.In addition, Xia Xun's contacts with the leaders of various tribes have gradually increased, and they often come and go for banquets.

Since the return of the North Korean envoys, North Korea has taken a hard look at the northern part of the island. I am afraid that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty will change his mind and really take away all the territory except the land of Sanhan. As for the territory and areas west of the Yalu River and Tumen River The members, they didn't even dare to think about it anymore, they could only watch them fall into Daming's arms one by one with hatred and anxiety.

For these subordinate tribes, Xia Xun began to consciously induce them to engage in business, agriculture, and work while placing them nearby, and exhorted their children to go to government schools. With the presence of his prestige Governor, these matters It's going very well.

Tang Jie's reaction was expected, but he didn't want to care.If he had to come forward for everything, then what kind of official did he fight for Wan Shiyu and Zhang Jun?These two people, one in charge of the army and the other in charge of the people, are the two leaders of Liaodong. If they can't even get rid of a subordinate who has caused trouble, then they may encounter many problems in the future. Could it be that they will all go to Jinling to invite him? Can't solve it by coming forward?brocade essay finishing

Sure enough, within two days, Zhang Jun, who had heard Ding Yu, Mo Ke and other officials respond, transferred Tang Jie away and appointed him as an errand of monitoring and counting suspicious constructions in various places in Liaodong. The matter of reform has been raised.Tang Jie has not been idle because of this, he travels everywhere, and there is always turmoil in reform places, so he specializes in collecting negative news, secretly reporting to Qiu Fu, and rectifying black materials on Xia Xun, Zhang Jun, Wan Shiyu and others .

At this time, Zhang Jun's secret deployment of the anti-day sword and the beards has also begun to enter the stage of collecting the net... Ask for a monthly ticket and fight for the first place!
