Chapter One Hundred and Thirteen The Strategy of the Country
Ke Mo was stared at him and said with a wry smile: "Kaohsiung, the situation is hopeless. You must know the current affairs of life. There is no Goguryeo anymore, only Yan. If you don't know the number of days, you will be in vain to save your life."
After saying that, he took out the sheepskin roll and said loudly: "You twenty-seven people have committed heinous crimes, and the crimes cannot be punished. The king has issued an order: all those involved in the assassination will beheaded, and the family will be confiscated and their families will be slaves."
Kaohsiung's face became darker and he no longer made excuses.
On that day, a group of twenty-seven people beheaded, and their families became slaves. As for family property, when Deng Zhong broke through Kaohsiung Mansion, there were not many gold, silver and jewelry. However, as a wealthy family, their granaries were sufficient and they were as if they were a mountain.
This made Deng Zhong ecstatic. The thing he lacked the most was food, and he immediately ordered people to leave.
When twenty-seven households were beheaded, 5,265 relatives of each tribe were slaves, and the confiscated food and grass were terrifying, which was much more fulfilling than the treasury in the Maruntu Palace.
Gongsun Xiu was in a good mood. He cleaned up all the chiefs and settled down all of a sudden. After all, what he feared the most was between the leaderless and the unsubmissive kingdom. He also realized that Kemo was a rare talent, and immediately put him in the Anton Protectorate's Mansion, and at the same time he used the old officials of the previous dynasty to govern Goguryeo with the Han people.
He understood that moving inward population is not a matter of day and night, and it must be gradually promoted. After all, most of Liaodong is wasteland now, and it will only take two years to develop. Even if you have the ability to move in a few years, the cultivated land is not enough to carry a large population, and it will eventually lead to hunger. The land in Yan is a large area, but it lacks development. It can only be slowly developed and then relocated step by step until it integrates into each other. At present, the Hu-Han government is governed together to retain the officials below. After all, Goguryeo is also a talented person. If you have outstanding abilities in the future, you can also be transferred to Yan as an official.
This is also very different from the method of the Tang people controlling Goguryeo. "The Andong Protectorate was re-established, and the chief tyrants were promoted to be appointed as the governor and governor, and the commander was ordered to be governed by the officials of China. Rengui became the Protector and the general was the general."
As for the land owned by the lords and powerful people, a small part was left to farm for the Anton Protectorate's Mansion according to the plan. The Yan army could farm during their idle time on the border. As for the large area of land, it was distributed to ordinary people. The former slaves were promoted to civilians and taxes were reduced. In the past two years, the King of Dongchuan had levy taxes and donated various taxes to the Goguryeo to make the people live in poverty, which directly conquered people.
Gongsun Xiu arranged for Lun to come to the Andong Protectorate to govern, and ordered him to set off from Yan State immediately, and he could take charge of his duties here.
The incorporation of Goguryeo into the territory brought him considerable benefits, not only solving border problems, but also expanding the territory and a large population.
Deng Ai smiled and said, "After this battle, the actual population of Da Yan should be 650,000."
Gongsun Xiu put his pen on his desk and asked: "The population of the powerful families is quite large and powerful. There are only one Liu family, and there are nearly 10,000 people, not to mention other powerful people of all sizes. Gu roughly believes that the population of Yan State should be more than 500,000, but only after hiding the population, only 350,000 registered people are left."
In a modern developed society, there are inevitably black households and people who cannot count, let alone the Three Kingdoms period 1,800 years ago. In this notice, it is basically a slow society where people are closed and slow, walking or riding horses. It is difficult to count the actual population. Even if it is more than 500,000, it is just a rough estimate, not an exact number.
Deng Ai said a little in a deep voice, of course he knew the existence of this problem and frowned: "The family has been in the forefront of the people of the family for a long time. It is not advisable to suppress the powerful people now, so as to avoid chaos inside and outside. It is better to wait until the inside and outside are stable before doing this."
The meaning of powerful people refers to powerful people who often threaten, harsh or cruel people who are weaker than themselves.
If you really want to become a wise wise ruler, you must suppress the powerful. This is the epitaph of the road to a wise ruler.
The Han Dynasty is a very obvious example. Although the Western Han Dynasty and Eastern Han Dynasty were both Liu's emperors, there were basically differences in politics. Liu Xiu established the Eastern Han Dynasty and quickly abolished the various systems that Wang Mang learned from the Zhou Dynasty, and decided to restore the Han tradition: Wuzhu coins and 30 taxes.
When Liu Bang first won the world, he even gave land to the whole nation. However, when Liu Xiu became emperor, he had no land to give land. A large amount of land was held in the hands of the landlords and powerful men in the previous dynasty. He was directly the family of a certain queen or the empress dowager, and he could not blatantly learn to "attack the local tyrants and divide the land" like a peasant uprising.
Deng Ai has been deeply engaged in military farming for 20 years, and has a very good understanding of the living conditions of the lower classes and the advantages and disadvantages of the policies of each dynasty. He explained: "Emperor Gaozu of Han was granted a large amount of land in the world to a hundred acres, and taxed it according to 15 taxes. By Emperor Wen of Han, he changed it to 30 taxes."
Gongsun Xiu nodded and frowned, "But there is a problem here: most ordinary people do not have a hundred acres of land, and they cannot cultivate a hundred acres of land. One thirty tax is collected according to the tax of one hundred acres. If there is a bad harvest or a famine, taxes will be collected based on the tax of one hundred acres, and mixed taxes will be added, which will easily turn the people into refugees, or directly invest in the powerful's disciples and become vassals."
Deng Ai raised his head and said softly: "Yes, Emperor Guangwu also wanted to grant land, but there was no land to grant land. He issued a land diligence order to measure the land in the world. The people found that the people were as large as a few acres, and the most were twenty or thirty acres. The few who could have a hundred acres were pitifully small, so they had to pay taxes according to the actual number of acres."
Gongsun Xiu understood that the emperor did not start with the support of the powerful, so he gave the other party preferential treatment later. The powerful clans have always annexed population and plundered wealth, which has greatly harmed the central government's finances. Although Liu Xiu issued a decree to investigate the fields, he found that there were many obstacles.
"Zizhi Tongjian" records the beginning, process and resistance of the field order: "The emperor said that the land in the world is not actually occupied by itself, and the household registration is also increased and decreased, so he ordered the county to inspect and inspect. Therefore, the governors and prefects were mostly deceitful and tricked people to collect the fields, and they gathered the houses in the fields, and fell inside, and the people covered the road and cried; or were generous and generous, and invaded the weak. At that time, the county sent envoys to report the matter. The emperor saw that there was a letter in Chenliu's letter and looked at it: "Yingchuan, Hongnong can ask, Henan, Nanyang cannot ask." The emperor asked the officials to ask the interests of the officials.
