Travel through the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 87 Governing Youzhou ([-])

"Tatatatat..." "Brother, this road is really wide. Even if we have ten horses walking side by side, it won't be too crowded."

"Well, well, but at this time, there is no shortage of land, but there is a shortage of people. You didn't look at it, but there are still a lot of barren fields in our five counties of Youzhou. It's the traffic rules to keep to the right, so that I don't understand, you said, we all walk on the right, so who walks on the left?"

"Stupid, I want you to learn more from the master, but you just don't care. Look to the left, is there no one walking? When you walk back, isn't that the right side!"

"Look at you, look at you, I'm just telling a joke, do you think I really don't know, our lord, who is that, but the general who subdued Lu Bu, look at that Yuan Shao who is four generations and three princes, He can't command General Lu Bu, can he? General."

Two soldiers rode horses and galloped along the main road of Youzhou, and from time to time they would say hello to the acquaintances who came from the opposite side. In fact, this road was also a county-level road designed by Yang Yu. The first-grade road is the widest road connecting the locations of the various counties. The width of this road can accommodate ten carriages in parallel. Moreover, in order to prevent the so-called wind and sand in later generations, Yang Yu planted some windproof trees on both sides of the road. Trees, and even some green buffers.

Especially for the maintenance of the road surface, Yang Yu contracted the road surface to the people in the fields next to the road. Sometimes, they will be exempted from part of the tax. Naturally, if the road surface is not well maintained, there will be penalties, and they will be heavy.

However, in order to prevent border disputes, Yang Yu implemented a strategy of passing three feet, that is to say, on the boundary line, passing the opponent three feet is also the responsibility of this side, and the three feet of this side is also the responsibility of the opponent , This is the six-foot boundary. If there is any problem with the six feet, then the two families will be punished together.

This three-foot strategy is not only used on this road, no matter the size of the road, it is divided in this way. If it is a public land boundary, there will be a three-foot strategy. However, only some major roads will be tax-free, and some There is no such thing as tax exemption for rural roads, but if they are not well maintained, they will still be fined.

In addition to the road surface, Yang Yu also built complete water conservancy facilities. The water source in this era, but the one thing that makes Yang Yu most happy, is that there are many rivers in this north, and the water flow in the rivers is very rich. In this case, this water conservancy facility will have two parts, one is the water supply channel, the other is the spillway, and even in the city, in his spare time, Yang Yu is still arranging to dig some deep open channels, perhaps For these water conservancy facilities, Yang Yu should also speed up the process of finding coal and developing cement. You know, urban open channels can be set up, but some closed sewers also need to be set up, and the water that can flow into the sewers must be installed. The smell will not be very good.

Similarly, there are corresponding trees on the side of the canal, that is, on the embankment, Yang Yu also arranged for people to take care of the problems of trees and grass, and he plans to start from now to form a good rule for them, but, Whether it can be passed on is beyond Yang Yu's control.

As for the tax exemption, for Yang Yu, his tax collection is already very heavy, but compared with the taxes in other places, this place is still relatively light, and, because of various plans, As long as they are not lazy, under Yang Yu's rule, every family will achieve a relatively good standard of living. Yang Yu predicts that within three years, he will allow the people under his rule to eat meat every day. Everyone will have boots to wear, and everyone will have fur coats to wear.

Due to the small population, Yang Yu made some changes to some grassroots structures, such as five households and one army, and ten households and one tenth only kept five households and one army, in order to prevent some things like foreign spies from happening. However, this regulation is still loose. It only requires that when one of the five households wants to travel, he must greet the other households and communicate with the other households. Ask for leave with Li Zheng, tell him what to do, the general route, and, also, the outsider will report in time.In this way, if something happens, it can be found out in time.

What's more, one mile per hundred households has been retained, but the position of Li Kui has been changed to Li Zheng.However, the pavilion was cancelled, that is to say, the errand that Liu Bang was in back then was gone under Yang Yu's rule.

So, what is it on the inside? It is directly changed to a township, a township within a hundred miles. However, this hundred miles is still not so standard. It depends on the size of the ground and the convenience of management. In some places, It is also possible to form a township with more than ten li, and in some places, it is possible to have a township with more than 100 li.

In addition, Yang Yu did not abolish the unique three-elder system in the township, and he also had reservations about the township assistant who assisted in tax collection. However, this township assistant was directly sent by the state pastor, that is to say, maybe, The old man does not register with Zhou Mu, but the Xiang Zuo registers with Yang Yu. Even, maybe, the Xiang Zuo will come directly from Yang Yu's academy.

Also, in the village, Yang Yu set up a bandit arresting office alone. This so-called bandit arresting office is staffed according to the number of people controlled by the township, and it is managed by the scout office. It's just an internal intelligence department.

As for the settings above the county level, Yang Yu didn't make any changes. Now a lot of changes have been made, and in some places, it's better to keep the original state, but don't be too alarming. not good.

Like, something that is about to happen, Yuan Shu proclaims the emperor. Now, the intelligence personnel under Yang Yu have got the exact news that Yuan Shu will proclaim the emperor in the coming year, and the Marshal proclaiming the emperor will naturally make everyone The princes of Lu glared at him, but without Lu Bu's participation in the battle with Yuan Shu, would he perish as in history? Yang Yu can only wait and see.

In fact, this is also the story of an early bird, and this is still an early bird with no ability.

As far as the counties are concerned, Yang Yu naturally still keeps the names of these five counties here, and even mentions them frequently. However, the prefects of these five counties have always been vacant, and even some officials in the counties, Not at all, that is to say, under Yang Yu's rule, the county is facing the State Shepherd's Mansion directly. , It is better to let them specialize in martial arts. You must know that there will be many wars in the future, so you can't let them put down their profession and do unprofessional things.

However, for the sake of city defense, Yang Yu set up an additional city defense county lieutenant in each county, that is to say, the militiamen from each county will take turns to go to the county, obey the command of the county lieutenant, and be on duty for city defense work.

In this way, once a foreign enemy invades, they will defend first, and a large number of civilian troops, as well as the main army, will arrive later and win the defense.

"My lord, the scheduled time is up. Shall we go down together to observe and compare, and see if some things are effective?" On this day, Ju Shou, Chen Gong, and Liu Hui couldn't wait to invite Yang Yu to go down and observe Cai Yan together. doing things.

What did Cai Yan do? Lijiu has already spread among the wives in the state. There is no need to observe and compare this, and there is no comparison.

What needs to be observed is the effect of raising pigs and fertile land. Although this fertile land is promoted throughout the prefecture, not everyone believes in it. Only Cai Yan does the most here. Today, I want to observe this something.
