Chapter 1062

Under Yanjing City, the gap in the city wall that was bombarded by cannons the day before yesterday was temporarily blocked with countless sandbags. Widths of black smoke still circled over the Kufang, which several Khitans were entrenched and resisting, and the Nanjing Palace City.

Inside and outside the city, under the city, there were still traces of fighting and looting everywhere. These traces were not all left by the two armies of the Song and Liao dynasties. In the early morning of the day before yesterday, the southern wall of Xijin Prefecture was bombarded with cannons. After the soldiers of the Song army attacked the city, the Yanyun families, who were originally waiting and waiting, immediately abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and stood on the side of Wu Haogu, which represented advanced productivity.

This situation is completely different from the fact that Guo Yaoshi led his army to attack, and after attacking Yanjing City, he still encountered stubborn resistance and was finally driven out alive.

Because Wu Haogu started to work with the Yanyun families ten years ago, not only bound the economic interests of the Yanyun families with Tianjin, but also the route he carried out was very different from the traditional Song Dynasty's use of literature to control the martial arts, but used the large warlords to coax the small warlords. He took out the Jiuzhou in the Jiuzhou, a prefecture in Yandi and distributed it to the Yandi families as a reward for their abandonment of darkness and turning to the light.

In this way, the families of Yan were chosen in the Liao Kingdom, and the people who sold the country and sought honor to be won by the Song Dynasty were hereditary observers. The interests were still guaranteed, and the world was prosperous for profit! It was necessary to ask others to sell the country and sought honor to be won.

Finally, the biggest difference between Wu Haogu and Guo Yaoshi is that Wu Haogu holds the truth and is best at convinced by reason.

Even the thick walls of Yanjing City were convinced by the "Four Truths" and fell down obediently. Who dared not to accept the Yan family? Whose castle is stronger than Yanjing City? Whose private soldiers can fight against the Khitan government troops? Whose family is more prosperous than the Han family in Yutian? Now every family in Yutian City is mourning, and every household is bringing filial piety!

The benefits that should be given are also given, the "chicken" that should be killed are also killed, and the "reasons" that should be explained thoroughly. These monkey spirits naturally know what to do.

So as soon as the Yanjing city wall collapsed, the armed uprising of local tyrants and evil gentry in Yanjing began.

Not all the local tyrants and evil gentry in Yan have rebelled, and some are just keeping themselves behind closed doors and acting like they are not involved.

For example, the Li family of Xijin Prefecture is Yelu Yan, who beat the Privy Councilor who rolled dice to win the Privy Councilor. Although they were emerging wealthy families in Yan, their foundation was still a little short of their background. The children of the clan did not have much force, and they also gained too many benefits from the Liao Kingdom, so there was no possibility of changing the family.

Wu Haogu would not kill them all, but just confiscated the land and private property of the mansion in Yanjing City. Their property in Tianjin is still sacred and inviolable!

In fact, Wu Haogu didn't want all the wealthy families in Yanjing to join him. They all surrendered to him. Where did he confiscate the land?

In this era, land is the combat power!

It is actually not realistic to completely abandon the feudal military service system linked to land and adopt the mercenary system or the compulsory military service system.

After years of military practice, Wu Haogu has realized such a reality that he, a capitalist, cannot do without feudalism!

Because of the employment relationship, it is not as strong as the dependence relationship formed by the title of the title. Moreover, it is not an era of queuing up and shooting. Wu Haogu's "golden finger" is not enough to build a modern army.

Even though he had the "Cannon of Truth", the core of his army was still thousands of knights with 1,500 acres of land.

The knights must have a manor to maintain them. Small farmers or urban merchants with only a few dozen acres of land cannot play with horse riding, archery and wall-style charges.

Therefore, what Wu Haogu wants now is not only a Yanjing city, but also a considerable amount of land. Then allocate this land to heroes who can act as knights or as soldiers of the field. Through the granting of this kind of land, a solid feudal dependence relationship can be established. At least in the lifetime of Wu Haogu, these knights and heroes who took the land would still work hard.

Of course, if you have to work hard, you can't give too little land. 100 acres is just a reward for infantry auxiliary soldiers. The infantry's main soldiers can get 200 acres, while a knight is 1,500 acres! If you are an officer who graduated from the Knight Academy, then 1,500 acres is just a starting price. According to the official position and the size of the credit, you have to increase the price.

For example, Brother Zhao Zhong, Murong Mu, Ximen Anguo, and other great heroes who took their family to join Wu Haogu, are directly in the land of a state!

And such as Ma Zheng, Zhao Jiaren, Huang Zhisheng, Zhang Xizai, Su Dalang, and He Tianran, who do not have a military family as their background, there are also tens of thousands of acres of manors!

As for Wu Haogu himself, of course he had to encircle a large area of ​​land. It was not that he needed to collect rent, but as a tool to motivate and buy subordinates in the future.

Therefore, Wu Haogu led his army to capture Yanjing City, in a sense, was also the beginning of a "land reform". However, this land reform was not of socialist nature, but of feudalism. The purpose was to establish a feudal order in Yan territory with Wu Haogu as the core.

It’s not that he has a strong feudal thought, but that this is the reality of Northern Song society.

Tianjin Market and JD Market are indeed in the bud, but that is only in its bud and has not become mainstream.

Moreover, feudalism, which is linked to the closure and military service, is not incompatible with the "Tianjin Free City".

Because in a sense, Tianjin City is also a piece of land, but the target of the enfeoffment is not a family or individual, but an autonomous chamber of commerce. The obligation undertaken by Tianjin City is to provide troops and a large amount of tax revenue.

In the political and military system conceived by Wu Haogu for his "independent kingdom", the countryside in Yandi will provide force and agricultural and animal husbandry products, while cities represented by Tianjin mainly provide tax and handicraft products (including weapons, ships, etc.).

Of course, the city will also have the power of self-defense. Moreover, the ruling center of Wuhaogu will also be placed in Tianjin, rather than a castle located in the countryside.

It was precisely in order to build such a semi-feudal and semi-capitalist separatist regime that Wu Haogu now had to acquire a large amount of land available for distribution in Yan territory.

So he would not make things difficult for the Han people who wanted to leave Yandi and follow Yelu Yanxi, as long as they did not learn from the Han family in Yutian to resist stubbornly.

As for those Yandi tyrants who want to surrender to Wu Haogu, their hands must be covered with the blood of the Khitans!

This is called a letter of fame!

This is also the reason why there will be a day and night of hard battles after Wu Haogu's troops rushed into Yanjing City.

...

"Preserve the laws of heaven, destroy evil spirits, and divide the fields!"

Amid the cheers of the new army of the Hebei Xuanfusi (this is the official number) soldiers who were about to become the "Wu Family Army", Wu Haogu brought Zhao Zhongge, Murong Mu, Ma Zheng, Huang Zhisheng and others into the city under the escort of the fake army led by Wu Tian, ​​from the Danfeng Gate in the south of Yanjing City.

Within the city gate is the Danfengmen Street, which directly leads to the General Administration of Xijin Prefecture. On both sides of the street are filled with infantry wearing wart armor, all of which are infantrymen of the "Wu Family Army".

Now Yanjing City has been taken down!

The promise of dividing the fields is probably about to be fulfilled?

Except for some Tianjin Prefecture's civilians who don't care about farmland (prizes can be selected, and real estate in Tianjin can also be selected), most of the soldiers in Wuhaogu's army are from peasants, and land is their favorite thing!

Moreover, the prizes promised by Wu Haogu are very generous. It is not to use ten acres of 20 acres to deceive people. The auxiliary soldiers start from 100 acres, and the main soldiers get at least 200 acres. They are also exempt from taxes and labor service. As long as there are people in the family who can serve in the military (the system refers to Shaanxi’s Tianfu soldiers, who must serve in active service and back service).

Several guys dressed in Khitans, escorted by a group of Yandi tyrants dressed in various armors, arrived in front of Wu Haogu's horses. Several Khitans were tied with ropes, all bowed to the ground, and elected an "old bald man" and said, "I am a monk Yelu Eliduo, welcomes the royal army of the Song Dynasty, and resists stubbornly, and should be executed..."

"I?" Wu Haogu said in surprise, "How did you catch a monk and surrender?"

A strong man born with a big and thick family, who didn't know it was the powerful man who came forward to bow to Wu Haogu, "Don't be deceived by this old man. This old thief is the rebels of the Khitans. The commander-in-chief, the king of Lanling County, and Yelu Eliduo, who hid in Kaibao Temple and shaved a bald monk."

"Oh..." Wu Haogu nodded, "By the way, why do you call me the big brother Jieshuai?"

This name sounds a bit like a gangster!

"Because I am also a descendant of the Taiyuan King, named Wu Chaoyan, and I am a general and supervisor in the Khitan side. I heard that my elder brother was in charge of the northern expedition and wanted to surrender for a long time... I finally got what I wish today!"

It turns out that I met my family!

"Are you going to be the chief supervisor?" Wu Haogu asked with a smile, "Did you build a house or a machine?"

"I am a scheming man. I originally worked in Longyan Tieshan in Fengshengzhou."

"Okay." Wu Haogulian said two good things, but did not talk to the strong man named Wu Chaoyan. Instead, he smiled and asked Yelu Elido, "It's frightening to stay... I was ordered by the king to take Yan land north, just to restore the territory of the Han family, and it was not to kill you Khitans. Today, Yanjing has been taken, and you and the Khitans in the city are both guests of the Song Dynasty. When the situation is a little better, people will be sent to send you back to the grassland. If there are any Han people in the city who do not want to be Song people, they will also release them to the grassland."

Wu Haogu said politely, in fact, he wanted these Khitans and traitors to inform Yelu Yanxi that who took the lead in selling the country, who killed the Khitans the most fiercely, who was the first to attack the palace of Xijin Prefecture and captured many of Yelu Yanxi's beauties. They all had to report them to Yelu Yanxi one by one! The powerful Yandi who did such a bad thing could only follow Wu Haogu wholeheartedly...
