Huang Yutan smiled and said, "Don't forget that the gentry in Xiguan can check the land, and the gentry in Tianshan can be naturally as well. The Northwest Army has now controlled Mingsha City, and the Quick Horse sent people to Mingsha City, so he ordered the Northwest Army to keep all the accounts of the Tianshan Ministry of Revenue Department Office. Then, using these accounts can make a big fuss."

Mr. Gan kept silent, and finally said: "I will send someone to Mingsha City immediately to block the Tianshan Ministry of Revenue Department. The things inside will not make anyone move at all."

"It's time for General Gan." Huang Yutan bowed to Gan Hou, and then continued: "As far as the officials know, the gentry in Tianshan actually have two accounts, one is the public account in the government, and the other is the private account they collected themselves. The number of public accounts and private accounts is absolutely different. Public accounts are open accounts, and taxes are paid to the government according to the number of land ownership in the public account, but the number on the public accounts is much lower than the number they actually own."

Most of the people present also knew this trick.

"In order to pay less taxes, the gentry actually owns at least 30% to 50% more than in the public account, and some people even have more than twice as many." Huang Yutan sighed: "For this reason, the taxes paid to the court every year are actually lacking a lot, and the benefits of those extra land have become one of the major benefits of the gentry and officials."

Chu Huan touched his chin. He had no idea about the tricks in the middle before, but before Xiguan began to implement the equal-field order, he conducted a large-scale inspection and knew the tricks in it.

"Zhu Lingyue launched a rebellion. Now that Xiguan has no leader, the court has a lot of things, and there is no energy to pay attention to the northwest for a while, so the Chu governor naturally should not let him come forward and share the worries of the court." Huang Yutan smiled and said with a smile: "Since that is the case, the Chu governor can also conduct land inspections in Tianshan. According to the official account, the land occupied by the gentry and wealthy families will be collected into the official position. If there are 500 acres of land in the account of the Ministry of Revenue, but in fact there are 800 acres, and so the more than 300 acres of land, it will naturally be directly collected into the official position.

This is not to take away the property of the gentry, but to confiscate unknown land. The gentry and wealthy families naturally cannot speak. In this way, the gentry and wealthy families of all sizes of Tianshan can confiscate large areas of land. In addition, under the Tianshan Mountains, areas with a radius of hundreds of miles are used as horse farms. Chu Du Da could depose the Tianshan Horse Farm and change the horse farm to fertile land. As far as the officials know, the climate under the Tianshan Mountains is pleasant, and the horse farm is actually the most fertile land, and can be used as the equal field order."

Pei Ji smiled and said, "Good idea, Lord Chu, Lord Huang, has made plans for a long time, but he has tried his best to ignore it. In my opinion, the land of the Tianshan Horse Farm, plus the land that has been collected by the officials, must be very large, and can be used as the allocated land for the equal land. As long as the equal land is implemented, the people of Tianshan will be happy and cheered, which is naturally what people want."

Huang Yutan smiled and said, "Everything is decided by the Chief Chu. If it is really implemented, we don't have to send many troops into Tianshan. We only need to send a portion of officials who know how to operate the equal field order... Well, we can let Wei Wuji and Wei go to Tianshan to deal with the equal field order in Tianshan, and we can also give another order to implement the equal field order in Tianshan. The degree of cooperation of local officials will also determine the future assessment. In this way, local officials in Tianshan may also actively cooperate with the matter."

"Okay, that's it." Chu Huan said simply: "The juntian ceremonies in Xiguan have been implemented in a general way. There is no need to be over-used in the future. We can let Wei Wuji go to Tianshan. Before the imperial court issued an order, Wei Wuji will temporarily handle the affairs of Tianshan, focusing on the juntian dict, and at the same time appease the people's hearts."

Xu Shao couldn't help asking: "Tianshan Horse Farm is the largest horse farm in the northwest today. If the Tianshan Horse Farm is deposed and the horse farm is changed to a fertile field, there will be no truly large horse farm in the northwest." Xiang Chu Huan said: "Duke Chu, the number of horses captured from the Tianshan Army this time is no less than 10,000, and in the future, there will be a salt horse trade with the people of Xiliang. If nothing unexpected happens, the number of war horses in the northwest will increase one after another. In this way, there must be a vast horse farm for stocking."

"Qingyuan Horse Farm is not completely abandoned." Chu Huan immediately said: "You can send someone to repair the Qingyuan Horse Farm and restore the Qingyuan Horse Farm. Moreover, our governor will take out some of the money to expand the Qingyuan Horse Farm. The area of ​​Qingyuan Horse Farm is not large enough. In the future, the Northwest Horse Farm will use Qingyuan Horse Farm as a base to build the largest horse farm in the northwest, and it is no problem to keep 30,000 or 50,000 horses in it." He smiled and said: "General Xu, when it comes to the horse farm, I have another matter to you."

"Du Chu ordered!"

"Among all of you, you know the best about war horses, so it is most appropriate to give it to you. This governor is preparing to order that in order to avoid bandits purchasing and robbing war horses, the three northwest war horses gathered together to Qingyuan Horse Farm, and a special military horse office was set up. The Military Horse Office established a general manager. You will be the chief manager of this military horse office." Chu Huan said seriously: "The responsibility of the Military Horse Office is to not only gather the war horses that can conquer and fight well in the northwest, but also like the cavalry of the Tianshan Mountains, and there are tens of thousands of war horses left outside. You must retrieve all the war horses, and you will also raise and train good horses to be used to suppress bandits in the future. Can you take on this responsibility?"

Xu Shao was stunned. Chu Huan said this, and if he handed over all the horse affairs in the northwest to him, this was not a small errand. He hesitated and said, "The last general... the last general can give it a try!"

"I don't need you to try." Chu Huan said in a deep voice: "I want you to do it well and take it all. If you need war horses or even cavalry in the future, I will ask you for it. If you can't hand it over, I will ask you for it. Tell me if you can take on this position?"

Xu Shao stood up and said in a deep voice: "I am responsible for this task. If I cannot complete the explanation of Duke Chu, I am willing to be military law!"

When Chu Huan heard this, he burst into laughter and the atmosphere was slackened. "Xu Shao, there are many good horse-raising experts in the northwest. You can recruit equestrian masters and ask them to help raise horses and train horses. This governor will definitely give preferential treatment." After a pause, he sighed: "This battle with the Tianshan cavalry was all provoked by Zhu Lingyue. Although Zhu Lingyue was extremely guilty, the Tianshan cavalry was just blinded by him. He can consult the Tianshan cavalry. If they are willing to serve the country and continue to be cavalry to suppress the rebellious bandits, our governor can give them a chance, and they will not treat them badly. It just needs your training."

In fact, everyone here knew that although the Tianshan Army was defeated and most of the Tianshan cavalry had lacked combat experience, Zhu Lingyue had tried his best for many years but did not fail to achieve success. In fact, after years of training, the basic qualities of the Tianshan cavalry were already quite strong and had a very tacit cooperation. Moreover, before the collapse of the battle on the horse farm, he also showed extremely tenacious fighting will. It is undeniable that if it were not for Pei Ji's strategy, these Tianshan cavalry who had experienced the war for the first time would have probably achieved a brilliant victory in the horse farm.

At least half of the 20,000 prisoners outside the city were Tianshan cavalry who dismounted and surrendered after collapse. Chu Huan thought in his heart that it was not easy to train cavalry. Zhu Lingyue finally trained a large number of cavalry. If he disbanded them at this time, it would be a pity that there would be some Mingzhu Mengcheng.

When Pei Ji heard this, he understood Chu Huan's meaning and said, "Duke Chu, the role of these cavalry is not just to suppress the thieves. Duke Chu should not forget that the thieves in the Western Liang people are undead. Now they are just because of civil strife and cannot pose a threat to us. But if they recover, they may not make a comeback. The people of Western Liang people are undead. Since Duke Chu is in the northwest and is in the defense of General Gan against the people of Xiliang, he cannot be neglected."

Chu Huan said solemnly: "What the General said is very true, the people of Xiliang must be guarded." He glanced at everyone and said: "Even if you have not seen the cavalry of Xiliang people, you have heard of them for a long time. Their cavalry is like the strong wind. Although they are our enemies, by conscience, their cavalry is indeed powerful. If there is no cavalry that can match it in the northwest, I am afraid...!"

Gan Hou finally said at this moment: "What the governor of Chu said is very true. The northwest border army once guarded Yanmen Pass. He thought that the pass could stop the Western Liang cavalry, but in the end, they were still captured. The soldiers in the northwest were not unable to fight, but one of the reasons for losing consecutive battles was that because the other side was mainly cavalry, so in order to shock the people of Xiliang and prevent them from coveting us, the northwest needed a powerful cavalry army as a backing."

Chu Huan immediately said, "General Gan said very much." He said to Xu Shao: "Xu Shao, I will leave the matters of cavalry to you."

Xu Shao looked embarrassed and bowed: "Duke Chu raised horses and trained horses, and even took back the war horses scattered in the northwest. He was determined to live up to the instructions of Chu Du. However... the Tianshan cavalry outside the city was in Tianshan, and they were left on the horse farm and stayed away from their hometowns. I was afraid they were not happy. Moreover... Duke Chu knew that although the cavalry was very powerful on the battlefield, the military expenditure required for raising a huge cavalry army was not a small amount. Keeping tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of cavalrymen was kept, not to mention anything else, and eating and drinking was a huge expense every year...!"

Pei Ji nodded and said, "Director Chu, what Xu Tongzheng said is indeed reasonable."

Chu Huan laughed and said, "That's okay. I have never thought that all the Tianshan cavalry can stay. This governor will immediately pass on a decree. Those who are willing to stay and serve the country will log them into the cavalry military list, their hometown, and record them in detail, telling them that as long as they are willing to stay, their families will be exempted from labor service forever. In addition, cavalry military households will only need to pay 10% of the tax within these three years. When the tax is restored after three years, the Tianshan cavalry military households can pay 20% less than ordinary people."

When Xu Shao heard this, he immediately looked relaxed and said with a smile: "In this way, they will definitely rush to stay."

"In addition, our governor will divide a part of the land near the horse farm and hand it over to your cavalry." Chu Huan said solemnly: "General Gan, when the border army is most difficult, stationed the border and guarded the pass and support his own strength. It is admirable. The cavalry you belong to can also do this. The land you have assigned will be organized by your cavalry to organize the farming of the land. When receiving the goods, you do not have to hand over a piece of rice to the government. All of it will be used as cavalry rations. At that time, you can distribute it evenly. Cultivating the land can allow them to exercise, and cultivate tacit understanding among soldiers, and cultivate both farming and training. What do you think?"

Everyone applauded, and Xu Shao naturally agreed very much.

"Of course, to build a powerful cavalry, the quality of the cavalry must be strong." Chu Huan said seriously: "Not all soldiers must stay. After the assessment, their physical and mental health are suitable for staying before they can stay. Xu Shao, you will be fully responsible for this matter."

Xu Shao bowed and said, "I will obey the order!"
