Survival on the road, I have a prompt system Chapter 1432 Divide the fields
After more than a month of fighting, Mu Tianbo and Mu Jiansheng finally captured the entire territory of Yunnan Province.
The momentum is huge, like thunder rolling.
The surrounding Qing troops were so frightened that they didn't dare to move around, they only dared to hide in the county seat, terrified all day long, for fear that the next moment, the Ming army would come to kill them.
They didn't understand that the entire Central Plains had already been occupied, and Emperor Yongli of the Southern Ming Dynasty had been executed. How could the Ming army become so vigorous like a new wave of people.
They don't understand it, and the people in Yunnan Province don't understand it even more.
But they know that the current Ming army is different from the previous one.
Not only did he not do anything wrong to the people, but he also took the initiative to help them redress their grievances and punish those local tyrants and evil gentry.
As ordinary people, they don't understand too many principles, and they will go with whoever treats them well.
Now, the Ming army is obviously better than the Qing army, so they will naturally hope to restore the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty.
As for the Qing army? What kind of **** is clearing demons, get out of the Central Plains quickly.
Those people originally thought that this was the end, but they didn't expect that there was an even bigger surprise waiting for them.
Wang Shuisheng was originally a dutiful farmer. The family relied on the savings of several lifetimes and had a few acres of Susukida to barely survive.
As a result, one year's harvest was not good, so he went to the rich man's house to borrow 3 dou of millet, and agreed that he would repay 4 and a half dou in the next autumn harvest, but when he returned the next year, it became 14 dou.
Wang Shui was too angry to reason, but was beaten up by the rich man's family servant, and he lay on the bed for three or four days before he came down.
Just being beaten was fine, and the rich man even filed a lawsuit in the lobby.
The county magistrate also took advantage of it, and even sentenced Wang Shuisheng to enter the house to commit murder, intending to assassinate the rich man, confiscate all Wang Shuisheng's properties, and compensate the rich man.
If it weren't for his family, Wang Shuisheng would have committed suicide.
He was working in the field that day when he suddenly saw a few children running over: "Uncle Shuisheng, why are you still plowing the land here? Hurry up, the rich man has been arrested, and everyone is complaining about their grievances at the entrance of the village. Hurry up and say Maybe your Tian Neng will come back."
"Really?" Wang Shuisheng couldn't believe it.
That rich man's hands and eyes are open to the sky, and he has an inseparable relationship with the county magistrate. Can this person be arrested?
"It's at the entrance of the village, you can see it when you look at it."
Several children dragged Wang Shuisheng to the entrance of the village.
Sure enough, the rich man was escorted by a group of people in dark blue clothes. Standing at the entrance of the village, a group of villagers who had been bullied by the rich man were telling how they were bullied.
Wang Shuisheng thought he was wrong and rubbed his eyes vigorously.
That's right, the one being held is the rich man Wang.
"Is this the manifestation of the gods and Buddhas?"
Wang Shuisheng almost knelt down.
What followed was more like a dream. Not only did Wang Shuisheng get back the land that should have belonged to him, but he also got a piece of land from the wealthy Wang's family.
Not only did he get it himself, one in the whole village counts as one, he got them all.
In addition to getting the land, those grenadiers in blue also told them the good news, that is, all corvee service, land tax and land tax will be exempted in the future, and the food tax will be replaced.
Only when they sell food, will they collect taxes according to the commodities, and they also have tax benefits compared to other commodities.
If they only eat and don't sell, they don't have to pay a penny.
However, there is also a condition for these, that is, they only have the right to use the land and have no ownership, and cannot conduct land sales without permission. Violators will be severely fined.
Abandoning wasteland at will will also be severely punished.
If you are unable or don't want to farm, you can apply to the village to hand over the land and distribute it to other people for farming.
If the imperial court needs it, their land can be expropriated unconditionally, but corresponding compensation will be given.
The reason why Han Yu left such a line, in addition to avoiding land mergers, was mainly because he planned to build roads and railways in the future.
Roads and railways are the blood vessels of a country. As long as the roads and railways are connected, his ruling effect can be extended to every corner of the empire along the transportation network.
When building this thing, it is inevitable to pass through fields. With this decree, land acquisition will be more convenient in the future.
It's not like neighboring countries, where a railway can't be built for decades.
When Wang Shuisheng and the others first heard that the ownership of the land was not in their own hands, they still felt a little uncertain.
I always feel that something is missing, and I feel unsteady.
However, the benefits Han Yu gave were real.
Just being exempted from hard labor was enough for them to be excited. In the past, when the farming was slack, they had to fight against the government for two months of corvee, not to mention a penny, and they had to bring their own dry food.
You can go if you don't want to, but you have to pay.
Now, it's free.
Moreover, not only is it free, but in the future the imperial court will not only pay the wages, but also take care of the food. According to the standard, there will be meat every day.
They can use these two months to do odd jobs and subsidize their families.
Although the Qing Dynasty said that it would never increase taxes, the land tax was a lot. Although UU Read Book www.uukanshu.com nominally owned the land, as long as it was cultivated, it had to be paid to the court every year.
However, with Han Yu, it's all free.
As long as the grain is not sold, there is no need to pay a penny of tax.
Selling food is also taxed as much as it sells, which is much lower than before.
In addition to not being able to buy and sell casually, it seems more suitable than owning the land.
Therefore, after some internal weighing, Wang Shuisheng and the others accepted these decrees.
In order to protect the interests he has gained, Wang Shuisheng sincerely hopes that Han Yu and the Ming court can always rule here and never leave.
As for the Qing court, go as far as you can.
After learning about the treatment of the Grenadier Corps, some families directly brought out the surplus labor force from the family, hoping to send it to the Grenadier Corps.
This treatment is much better than the bitter farming.
If it weren't for the possibility of losing their lives, many elderly farmers even wanted to hand over their fields and their families to join the army.
All of a sudden, Han Yu had more than 100,000 soldiers.
After some screening, Han Yu expanded the Grenadier Corps to ten legions.
Each legion has 10,000 people, a total of 100,000 troops.
In addition, two cavalry regiments, three logistics regiments, and militia regiments in various towns were formed.
At this time, Han Yu had 120,000 soldiers.
Remember, this is a soldier.
In ancient times, it was said that there were hundreds of thousands of troops, but it included farmers who transported luggage, and the proportion of real soldiers was not too much.
Watching my team grow like a snowball.
Han Yu is full of confidence. He feels that his mission in this world has the hope of being completed.
Now that he has gained a firm foothold in Yunnan Province, the next step is to step out and sweep Jiangnan.
