It was not surprising that Meng Yuan adopted a new fiscal policy, because these measures were all repeated of the same old tune, and there was nothing new, and the implementation of the state monopoly to obtain a stable source of taxation was still adopted by many dynasties and even modern times. Many morale boosts have also been used to raise monopoly taxes to solve the country's financial difficulties.

However, when the radical fiscal policy of raising the monopoly water monopoly on a large scale was adopted, it was often the country that suffered great national difficulties, and there was no way to do it, but it also marked the end of the imperial court. The consequences are also extremely serious, because the monopoly is related to the people's livelihood and is an indispensable thing for life, and raising the tax amount will increase the burden on the people, which is very easy to arouse the opposition of the people and lead to national shock.

Originally, the state taxed commercial activities. But such a tax, no matter how much it is raised, will not satisfy the emperor at this time. So the tax was levied and the money was calculated, and a new source of tax revenue was opened. The so-called silk rope is a silk rope that strings money, a string of 1,000 yuan, and 20,000 yuan, that is, 20,000, 20,000. The calculation is levied on real estate, how many houses, how many horses, how many vehicles, the government stipulates it, and let the people pay it themselves.

Of course, the people are not stupid, who will take the initiative to pay? But the government has a trick, and to report it is to denounce people for hiding their wealth and not reporting it. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was the first to use bad tactics, stipulating that if anyone did not pay, or underreported, others could report to the government, and after the complaint, the government could confiscate all the property of the family and distribute half of it to the informant.

At that time, the court lieutenant in charge of the criminal law was Du Zhou, a famous cool official, who sent people to the county to do the work of calculation. So the complainants are all over the world, and there are no middle-class families. Those who accuse others of their ill-gotten gains will also be sued in the blink of an eye. For a time, the court obtained hundreds of millions of people's wealth, tens of millions of slaves and maids who were confiscated, hundreds of hectares of land in large counties, and hundreds of hectares in small counties. For a while, it became a way to make more money than the iron and salt official camp.

However, the people are those people, and the property is the property, and if it is emptied, it will be gone. Therefore, such a fiscal measure is tantamount to overdrawing the country's revenue for decades, and the consequences are self-evident. For the country, economic activity is sluggish, financial resources are depleted, and development has come to a standstill, so the only way to do this is to introduce more drastic policies to rein in money, and the result is that the heavens are angry and the people are resentful, and if there is an external threat under the internal strife, there is only one way to perish.

'Reckoning Order' can be called the way to self-destruction. Therefore, as soon as Zhao Hao's words came out, it immediately caused the whispers of the officials, and he did not stop them, but let them talk about it, hoping that they could understand something from it and realize that the decisive victory is not only on the battlefield. It is also possible to weaken the enemy's strength by economic means, so that the enemy's finances will collapse, and the civil strife will not stop.

Zhao Yu saw it further, Meng Yuan restored the system of the king out of the town in the Han land, and in his opinion, it was even more dead. In the past, at the beginning of the Mongol and Yuan dynasties, the system of the emperor leaving the town was also implemented in the Han Dynasty to manage administrative and military affairs, but it was convenient for war to fight, but it was also easy to form local secession. Therefore, Kublai Khan quickly returned the administrative power to the province after pacifying Jiangnan, and the military power was vested in the Privy Council.

Zhao Yu thought that Zhenjin was now restoring the power of King Zhenzong to control the military and government in order to deal with the severe military situation, hoping to use the army of the kings to resist the attack of the Song army, and then seize power after the situation improved. But he thought that Zhenjin was dreaming, and the current Great Yuan Dynasty was no longer the Great Yuan Dynasty of the past, and Zhenjin was not Kublai Khan.

Kublai Khan, as the founding emperor of Mengyuan, was able to seize the throne of Khan among many brothers and complete the unification of the dynasty. With soldiers and money in hand, you can send troops to conquer the Quartet, and you can use money to settle the many kings of the grassland.

But what does real gold have? is just a nerd who was cultivated by Han Confucianism, who has no achievements in military affairs and no political opinions. In addition, he was still timid, and he was scared half to death by Kublai Khan's words, so he hung on his life. After inheriting the throne of Khan, what followed was also a mess, the kings of the foreign domains were not satisfied, and there was a war with the Great Song Dynasty. As a result, after only two years of succession, Jiangnan and Lianghuai were lost, the money bags were gone, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were lost, and the cronies' troops were basically disabled.

In the case of the decline of the central government, the old system was restored, and the kings of the steppe were led out of the Han land. If you have no soldiers and no money, you can't suppress the old kings and opposition forces by force, and you can't entrap the kings and the old Han marquis without money, so it's equivalent to inviting a group of wolves in. The imperial court has no money, so it can only rely on the kings to raise it themselves, so it will inevitably get out of control administratively, and the army is the tribal army of the kings, which is no different from private soldiers. As a result, the imperial decrees were not passed, and the kings went their own way, gradually forming a trend of separation, and the court was hollowed out.

In addition, Zhenjin adjusted the policy this time, transferred the Mongolian king into the Han land, and selected the Mongolian elite into the cowardly Xue to exclude the Han people. This will inevitably encroach on the interests of the Han marquis in the past, which will cause their dissatisfaction, and further deepen the contradiction between the Mongolian and Han people, causing the Han people to be centrifugal and weaken their control over the grassroots. Under the harsh government, ordinary people will also have grievances, and when the two are added, there will be changes when there is a stir in the wind and grass under the resentment.

After the discussion of the officials subsided, Zhao Yu sorted out and interpreted the changes in the system of Mengyuan, and analyzed the consequences of the policy from shallow to deep. The officials listened quietly to the little emperor's explanation, and all agreed with his reasonable analysis, and at the same time understood that the current end of the Northern Expedition and the end of Bianjing seemed to have lost the opportunity to recover the old capital.

However, the Great Song Dynasty had already achieved military superiority, changed the posture of passive defense, and took advantage of the opportunity of the peace of Meng and Yuan to cease the war. From a long-term perspective, it can not only alleviate domestic contradictions, but also allow the people to recuperate and accumulate strength. And there is an excuse for the next Northern Expedition, and when Meng Yuan changes, he can raise troops again to hang the people and fight the crime, and drive Meng Yuan out of the Central Plains in one fell swoop and drive him away from Saibei.

The meeting, which lasted for a whole day, allowed the ministers to understand Zhao Yu's strategy, and no longer entangled in the issue of stopping the Northern Expedition, and reached a consensus on the strategy of operating the two Huai and consolidating Huaibei.

In the evening, Zhao Yu was not idle, and convened a meeting with the heads of various prefectures and counties to explain why Zhang Song was severely punished in the Haozhou incident, so that everyone could understand that although he did not make a principled mistake in implementing the imperial court policy, he could not deal with the problems arising in the implementation in a timely and effective manner, and underestimated the strength of the hostile forces, and did not give correct guidance to the people. As a result, it caused a big mistake and caused the people to flee in panic, causing extremely bad consequences.

Subsequently, Zhao Yu gave a clear explanation on how everyone grasped the policy of the imperial court. The Mongols left behind in Lianghuai should adopt a more lenient attitude, respect their own customs and religion, and not use coercive means to prohibit them.

In terms of their private property, it is necessary to resolutely confiscate those Mongol nobles and rebellious Han Chinese, but they must retain their property to maintain their basic life. And for ordinary Mongols, they can keep their property and distribute land according to the regulations, enjoying the same treatment.

The Mongols who disobeyed the management of the imperial court and plotted rebellion should be resolutely suppressed, adhere to the strategy of 'the first evil must be eliminated, and the coercion will not be asked', and divide and disintegrate the hostile forces, instead of adopting the method of bloody massacres regardless of priority, and eliminate them physically, and gradually assimilate them through various means of indoctrination.

In dealing with the Han people in the north who have immigrated here, it is necessary to promote the same roots and the same ethnicity, and to divide the north and the south, and it is not allowed to artificially divide them, and it is not allowed to use discriminatory words such as 'naturalization' and 'naturalization' in the issuance of proclamations and daily language, and it is not allowed to use means such as prohibiting intermarriage and trade to isolate the exchanges between the Han people in the north and the south, so as to achieve the integration of the Han people in the north and the south.

The next day, Zhao Yu convened the generals above the commanders of the various ministries in Yingtianfu to discuss the meeting, first of all, to summarize the gains and losses of the previous stage, the commanders of each department first explained how they planned and deployed, and then the commanders of the various departments participating in the war spoke one by one, telling the battle process and the use of tactics, and finally everyone analyzed the gains and losses, the use of strategy and tactics, and whether the coordination and cooperation of the various departments were appropriate, so as to sum up the experience.

As the formulator of the Northern Expedition strategy, Zhao Yu has been commanding on the front line, but he did not intervene without authorization, but more as a listener to understand the specific situation of each battle, and corroborate and compare with his own decisions and deployments, and then comment. He severely criticizes mistakes in command, and self-criticizes his own mistakes. And praise is not spared for those who have conducted well.

After summing up the summing-up, Zhao Yu ordered that the classic combat examples be compiled into a book and distributed to officers at all levels, so that everyone could learn to improve their command level. After that, he made arrangements for the next stage of military work, and adjusted the policy toward the enemy and the distribution of troops. It is necessary to cut all departments not to relax their vigilance because of the negotiation of peace and the cessation of the Northern Expedition, and still be ready to fight at any time, counterattack Meng Yuan may launch a new offensive.

On the third day of fasting, Zhao Yu was still busy, and he summoned the officials to meet separately to ask them about their work, either to praise, reprimand, or admonish. Anyway, the officials who came out of the audience were all frightened, they didn't know why the little emperor knew so much about what they were doing, and knew everything about them, as if there was an eye staring at them all the time, so that everyone was cautious, where would they dare to do it again, and there would be deviant behavior......
