Chapter 323 Li Zicheng, you have learned badly

Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance and Gu Junen were not in a good mood for the Chinese New Year, so they all walked in with frowns on their faces.

The reason for not being in a good mood is that there is no money to pay out the "year-end bonus". In the past year, the Dashun Army has been really hard, tired and dangerous. They rushed back and forth, fought so many battles, and died so many people. In the end,

Nothing was gained! Li Zicheng's "big boss" didn't make any money, and the guys below were empty-handed. As the New Year is approaching, ordinary soldiers in the army can feel better after each of them only received one tael of silver for food and wine.

It's not that this tael of silver is too much or too little, but that everyone wants land, a wife, and a share of the fruits of victory.

Although Li Zicheng paid homage to the ancestors of Xixia, he followed the Song Dynasty's thinking. He never thought about dividing the land and population among everyone. He only wanted to spend money to buy soldiers, and he thought about benevolent politics all day long.

The last co-owner of the world who thought this way has been ousted by his son! And Li Zicheng didn't have a son as capable as Zhu Cixiang, so he still dared to think like this. How can he not be anxious to death? But fortunately, Li Zicheng still has his eldest nephew Li Guo and Li Laiheng.

The eldest grandson.

Of course, these two people did not dare to rebel against Li Zicheng, but they jointly gave Li Zicheng a memorial that he had to pay attention to. The chief historian of the Tang Dynasty Palace in the Ming Dynasty also knew that Li Yan of the Runing Palace was poaching the old camp of Dashun Army! He also opened fire

After leaving Runing Mansion, Fengyang Mansion had 100 acres of land (dry land), with a monthly salary of 4 taels of silver, all-inclusive food and drink, and a high price of 50 taels of silver for bringing a horse to surrender. Hearing this news, Li Zicheng was very worried!

The old brothers under him have long been full of resentment, and all of them want to be landlords! Now the Ming Dynasty not only gives land, but also gives more money than Li Zicheng! Fortunately, the news in this era is transmitted slowly, and like later generations, Li Zicheng

Don't fight anymore. All the heroes under my command have gone to Nanjing to submit their resumes.

"No need to kowtow, come here, come and take a look at this." When Li Zicheng saw the three ministers about to kneel, he hurriedly waved to them and asked them to come forward to talk. He also handed over the memorial jointly signed by Li Guo and Li Laiheng.

"Your Majesty, I would like to wish you a happy New Year!" Niu Jinxing forced a smile, walked up to Li Zicheng, wished him a happy New Year first, then took the memorial, opened it and read it.

After he read it, he gave the memorial to Song Xiance, and Song Xiance gave it to Gu Junen after reading it. Soon all three of them read it again, and they all showed solemn expressions.

"Tell me everything." Li Zicheng asked.

"Your Majesty, this Li Yan, the red lady is so hateful! We should send troops to attack her!" Niu Jinxing and Li Yan had a bad relationship to begin with, and now they are each their own master. What else is there to be polite about?

"How is it possible to attack Runing Mansion?" Song Xiance shook his head, "Now Wu Sangui is stationed in Luoyang, Duoduo is stationed in Pingyang, Zhang Xianzhong proclaimed himself emperor in November, and defeated Ma Ke, where can we take action?"

Li Zicheng looked at Gu Junen again, and Gu Junen frowned, "Your Majesty Li Yan is doing well in Runing Mansion! Should we also learn from him?"

"Study?" Li Zicheng chuckled, "How can you have so much money and land to seduce the strong men under the red thieves?"

"Your Majesty, this is not what you want to learn."

"Then what to study?"

Gu Junen took a breath and said: "Your Majesty, we have to learn from the red thieves and divide the fields! We have to divide the fields for the soldiers. If we don't divide the fields, people's hearts will be scattered!"

"This" Li Zicheng was still hesitating.

Gu Junen stamped his feet, "Your Majesty! What are you worried about? The princes have confiscated tens of millions of acres of land to divide, and the Tatars are occupying houses in Beijing and forcing the people to work as slaves. They

What are our backgrounds if we are not all stable now? What else can't we do?"

That’s right! The prince of the Zhu Thieves is orthodox, and he still ransacked the house, confiscated the land, and divided it up. The Tatars didn’t care about the Manchu and Han families. They enclosed land and occupied houses without discussion! We bandits are thieves in the first place! They tortured and plundered military pay in Beijing.

Now that you have done all the things you don’t dare to do, what else is there that you don’t dare to do?

"Well, it's not that I'm afraid of scholars chewing their tongues!" Li Zicheng shook his head, "Well, I feel that the people are struggling to survive, and it's not easy. Now they are just a little better, and they have been divided into tenants and given to those vicious old camp soldiers. This is still

Didn't we just come out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den again? The purpose of the uprising is to save the people, not to harm them!"

When Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance, and Gu Junen heard these words, they almost despaired!

How can you, a rebel, brag so hard that you believe it? Did you rebel to save the people? Didn't you rebel because the emperor of the Zhu family owed you military pay and couldn't pay it? In order to overthrow the Ming Dynasty, how many people did you kill? How do you behave?

You must not forget your roots! Those who are rebels must not forget their roots!

"Your Majesty," Gu Junen was also anxious and said to Li Zicheng, "If you feel embarrassed to attack fellow Shaanxi people, just divide the fields in Xiangjing Prefecture first! We have been operating in Xiangjing Prefecture for two years, and our foundation is stronger than elsewhere.

Some.

Moreover, the land in Xiangyang is fertile, the rainfall is abundant, and the climate is relatively warm. There are no less than two million acres of irrigated land. Even the dry land is much better than the land in Shaanxi. The emperor is willing to share the land in Xiangjing, which can at least make tens of thousands of people

The soldiers have gained something!"

Niu Jinxing also said: "Your Majesty, Huguang is a good place. It is a land of plenty and plenty of land. The land is extremely vast. There are more than 200,000 acres of registered land, and most of it is farmland and paddy fields. Shaanxi is far behind! If we can manage Xiangjing

Okay, there is a way out."

"Retreat" Li Zicheng frowned, how could he be associated with "retreat" now? He has already returned from Beijing to Shaanxi, should he still return from Shaanxi to Xiangjing? This is really embarrassing!

"Alas!" Li Zicheng sighed, "That's all we have to do, but who can run Xiangjing?"

After thinking for a long time, Li Zicheng finally learned bad things! Because Huguang's retreat is too attractive, and his situation in Shaanxi is too difficult. Even if the Tatars don't come, it will be difficult for him to maintain it. Because the land in Shaanxi is too barren,

In the Ming Dynasty, the tax amount was only more than one million dan, what was it enough for?

"Of course it's Bohou," Gu Jun'en said. "Bohou's army is stationed in Nanyang, not far from Xiangjing."

Bohou's surname is Li, and now that Li Shuangxi is dead, Li Zicheng's bunch of concubines have failed to live up to their expectations, and their stomachs have not moved until now. So Li Laiheng, the son of Bohou Li Guo, is the only candidate to "Shun Taizong"!

In addition, Li Guo is still stationing tens of thousands of troops in Nanyang, all of whom are veteran soldiers! Now it happens that they are all brought to Xiangjing to participate in the "land reform." Once completed, Dashun's foundation in Xiangjing will be firmly established.

"Think about it, he is the only one left." Li Zicheng nodded, "Let Li Guo station troops in Xiangjing. Jun En, you gave me this idea, then you can become the governor of Xiangjing and preside over the redistribution of land!"
Chapter completed!
