Gao Jie, also from the so-called 13 families and 72 battalions of the Shaanxi People's Army, his report number was the Harrier over the mountain, but he surrendered to the Ming Army earlier.

Compared with Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai, Wang Guangen and others, Gao Jie can be said to have completely changed his mind and become a new person. Every time you fight, you must take the lead and fight to the death.

Why! To put it bluntly, it's worthless. When this person was a thief, he was once subordinate to Li Zicheng's subordinates, and one of Li Zicheng's concubines, Xing, was in charge of military resources, and paid food every day. (Anyone who has watched the Water Margin knows that Yan Qing was also frightened when she encountered the seduction of Master Li.) Boss woman, is that so easy to touch!? ）

The hatred of killing one's father and taking one's wife has been inseparable since ancient times. Even according to the records in the history of the Ming Dynasty, the peasant army killed their wives at every turn to show their determination and abandon their burdens. However, the bosses can kill their own women themselves, and it seems that there is no saying that their brothers can kidnap the boss's women! Li Zicheng was put on such a big green hat by Gao Jie, and it was inevitable that he would be ridiculed among the brothers in the same camp, how could he give up with him? The generals of the other battalions can repeat it repeatedly, only he can't. Because, he has a bad reputation among his old companions, and there is no way back. This is also the reason why Gao Jie fights bravely every time he encounters a thief.

After years of fighting, Gao Jie also had irreconcilable contradictions with thieves because of his bravery, and exchanged the blood and head of his old companions for the position of deputy general. Subordinate to He Renlong's subordinates.

Among He Renlong's subordinates, Gao Jie, Gao Ruli, He Yong, Dong Xueli and other more than ten generals are relatively estranged from He Renlong, plus Gao Jie's own background and military exploits. Therefore, in Sun Chuanting's heart, he is a person who can be entrusted with important tasks.

Only beheaded He Renlong and his confidants, appeased General Yu, and ordered Gao Jie to take over his army, then an army could be determined.

Sun Chuanting's arrangement. Quite thoughtful indeed.

Looking at He Renlong, who was still in high spirits with him for a moment, he was raised his head with the tip of a gun at this moment, and he couldn't help but feel that Niu Chenghu and the others were all frightened, afraid that the next one would be himself. "Damn Sun Deaf, you are really ruthless!" Although he cursed in his heart, he was worried that He Renlong's fate would be his example. Now that you are in the midst of a dangerous city, ask yourself, how are the hundreds of personal soldiers who have brought into the city those new recruits who are silent but fighting against the enemy like farmers harvesting crops?

Hold your own troops. Relying on the soldiers and horses in their hands to threaten the imperial court, extort military salaries, and loot states and counties, they are all willing, but if they really want to join thieves and follow thieves, or raise troops to rebel, it is not for idlers to make up their minds. They can threaten the imperial court and make the officials throw themselves into the trap. But when it really comes to that point, it comes to the end. Many people often don't have the courage to do so, especially for them who are in high positions.

So it's a delicate balance, and the so-called hemp stick beats the wolf at both ends of the fear. However, now, this balance was shattered by Sun Chuanting without hesitation with brute force! Don't you just have some soldiers and horses in your hands? Lao Tzu has more soldiers and horses than you, and they are still very much, Lao Tzu just doesn't eat your set! Let's see what you can do with Lao Tzu!

It turns out. These people are all donkeys from northern Shaanxi, leading them backwards. When it was impossible for them to threaten Sun Chuanting, they had no choice. When they felt a sharp sword hanging above their heads, and Sun Chuanting could send them to see the madman at any time, they all immediately turned into good babies. Frightened, he knelt in front of Inspector Sun.

Governor Sun taught these arrogant soldiers a good lesson, and left a deep impression on the commanders and generals of the towns, who were either afraid or timid.

Looking at these generals and lieutenants kneeling at his feet, Sun Chuanting felt a heartfelt relief! It's a bit of a joy to know today!

He coldly glanced at the people in front of him, and motioned to the military and political secretary beside him to start reading out the amount of money and food that each ministry should receive according to the number of soldiers and horses registered in the military register. Next to it, the copywriter opened the collar with his hands and feet, and the generals of each department would go to the treasury to withdraw money and grain according to the number on the collar.

On the one hand, He Renlong, who did not listen to the greeting, had become the head hanging on the high pole, and on the other hand, there was a large amount of military salaries, grain and grass received from the Inspector. This scrubbing made these generals completely die of their heart to confront Sun Chuanting.

"All towns and battalions have received their salaries and must make up the shortfall within ten days, and the governor will send personnel to the battalion to check at that time. If there is still a vacancies, the ministries will reduce their staffing! The reduced salaries will be used to train and support new soldiers! ”

"The thieves are in endless chaos, Your Majesty is anxious every day, and my generation has been blessed by the country, dare not to share the worries of the saint with all my heart? In the future, military discipline should be the first priority, and those who dare not obey military orders will be severely punished by the Governor and the sword, and will never be lenient! ”

"It should be the responsibility of our generation to comfort the worries of the saints and to relieve the suffering of the people! He is a dragon, ignoring the emperor's grace, it is not a pity to die, pass on the order of the governor, and pass the heads of these thieves to the three sides, and those who dare not serve the country will end up like this! The generals need to be warned! ”

Speaking of this, he was already full of voice, everyone in the hall was listening with their hands down, not daring to look up at Sun Chuanting's face, after listening to his lecture, they all said neatly: "The teachings of the governors, the last generals and others must be kept in mind, and they must die for the court." ”

"This governor doesn't want you to die for the court, you just need to obey the orders of the court!" Sun Chuanting changed his tone, and glanced at everyone present rather sadly, his eyes were no longer as sharp and cold as Fang Cai.

"You have followed the governor to compete with Li Chuang, Cao, Xian and others for many years, chasing the north, and even beating the rebellion many times to the point that only dozens of horsemen are left! It can't be said that soldiers don't need to die! It can't be said that the officers and soldiers can't fight! However, why is it that in the blink of an eye, the rebellion can engulf tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of displaced people? ! ”

"It is precisely because of natural and man-made disasters that the people cannot live! Then provided Li Zicheng with countless soldiers, so that he could make a comeback again and again! Even if there is no Li Chuang, there will be Zhang Chuang and Zhao Chuang! ”

After a slight pause, he breathed a sigh of relief, and tried his best to make his complexion a lot easier, "Li Chuang and the others can be defeated without worry. And all it takes is one win! However, my Ming official army cannot be defeated once! If you lose, you will be devastated! ”

If someone else said this in front of the generals, these military leaders would have to sneer in their hearts, make some loyal and righteous expressions on their faces, and only think that what he said was! But not right now! A human head of He Renlong. It has set an example for everyone, and also served as a good cornerstone for Sun Chuanting's status in Shaanxi and in the entire trilateral region.

"At that time, the governor of the three sides, Lord Yang He, once said, 'The thieves of the Three Qin Dynasty are extremely poor and hungry, and they have nowhere to live. If you want to disperse the thief, you must give money to make a living, and then it will be dissolved. After the dissolution, it is still necessary to be placed, and the cattle must be given to the cattle breed to return to the agriculture and resume the industry, and then it is called the real placement. If so, the thief has the joy of life, has no heart to die, and will be caress as soon as he is, and the situation will be established, and the situation will be suppressed. And so did the Governor! The so-called people have no food and become thieves, soldiers have no food and become thieves, and thieves lead to the erosion of the world! The Governor is determined that instead of raising the soup to stop the boiling, it is better to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle! Give the good people a life to live, and not make them take risks and be willing to be thieves! ”

Historically, those who have been literate must have weapons. Now that Sun Chuanting has a strong army in his hands, he can naturally promote his so-called literary affairs very well! He decided to start with taxes, tuntian, etc.!

He served as the governor of Shaanxi for several years, was familiar with all kinds of local affairs, and even made a bold and resolute effort to rectify Tuntian, killing a number of officials and gentry and generals who occupied Tuntian, which made Shaanxi's Tuntian quite a bit of a scene of turning yellow to green. However, now that he has been in prison for a few years, he has come out of prison, only to find that the tuntian that he had snatched out of the hands of the gentry and generals with a big blade had been occupied by them again.

As for paying taxes. It's even more useless to look good.

Shaanxi's taxation is based on the statistics of the fish scale book during the Wanli period. It should be 690,000 stone wheat in summer tax, 1.4 million meters of autumn grain, and a lot of silk cotton and mulberry in the northern provinces, second only to Shanxi.

In the sixth year of Wanli, Shanxi Tianfu converted a total of 2.1 million taels of silver, and the Inner Xia tax was more than 400,000. More than 1.6 million autumn grains. There are still many places in the Ming Dynasty, such as Shanxi, and the central treasury was transported more than 800,000 yuan in the sixth year of Wanli, accounting for 39% of the total tax, and more than 120,000 taels were retained. It accounts for 61% of the total tax paid.

The proportion of Shaanxi and Shanxi is about the same, of course, the two places are more retained, but also because of the need to supply grain and salary to the border towns.

Just like Yansui Town, their own grain is only more than 60,000 stone a year, and the political departments of Shaanxi and Henan have to transport 305,000 stone of grain and 500,000 bundles of grass a year.

Ningxia Town, Shaanxi Province also sent 130,000 stones of grain and 185,000 bundles of grass.

There are also Gansu Town, Guyuan Town, and Shaanxi Buzheng Division, respectively, to transport 310,000 stone of grain and 540,000 bundles of grass, as well as 380,000 stones of grain and 540,000 bundles of grass, and supply to the three sides, which is extremely stressful.

"At present, all parts of Shaanxi are short of food and salary, and the root of it is nothing more than natural disasters and man-made disasters! In the Governor's view, man-made disasters are far better than natural disasters! Therefore, when the governor left Beijing to resign from his majesty, he specially asked the Son of Heaven for a will! He bowed to the east as a sign of respect.

"The Son of Heaven allowed me to raise my own food and salary in Shaanxi. This governor intends to follow the example of Liang Guogong and his son in Shandong and other places, and practice the method of paying grain in one errand and one body! At the same time, clean up the situation of local deficits and tax arrears over the years! Don't let your soldiers fight with hunger and cold! ”

These impassioned words brought a greater impact to everyone present than killing the madman He just now! What the?! Lord Sun, you didn't become a madman yourself because you killed the madman He, did you?!

At present, the eight hundred miles of Qinchuan, the cream of the land, the essence of Shaanxi, most of the best watered land belongs to the Qin Wangfu and the major gentry and giants. These people, whether they are clan members or registered officials, have meritorious names on their bodies, and enjoy the privilege of not being poor and not paying food, and because of this, most of the good fields in this pass belong to these people. As for whether it was bought with money, or sacrificed, or encroached upon, or whether the original landlords could not stand the high amount of money and abandoned the land, these people took the opportunity to take it for themselves, and it is not known.

"Inventory of local arrears and deficits over the years? Officials and gentry pay in one garment? Think again, Governor! If this is the case, Shaanxi is bound to be in chaos! ”

Facts have proved that not only the military attaches who were present were scared to death, but also Feng Shikong, the governor of Shaanxi who had been cooperating closely with Sun Chuanting, was also really taken aback! It's okay to kill an arrogant military attaché, but it is the emperor's will. And the crime is clear, and the evidence is conclusive. However, in Shaanxi, the implementation of the integrated errand payment of grain, I am afraid that it will cause trouble! And it's the kind of catastrophe that kills the dead and the clan is wiped out!

Feng Shikong, the word Jinglu, the original martial artist. Wanli forty-four years of Jinshi. Director of the Sentencing Department. Calendar members outside Lang, Langzhong. Shaanxi was sentenced to 180 people from prison. At the beginning of the apocalypse, he became the prefect of Zhending, and moved to the deputy envoy of the Jingcheng military garrison, and returned with worry.

In the second year of Chongzhen, he started to prepare for Gong's army, changed the original, and then returned to worry. Serve as a deputy envoy to the army. Move dense clouds. Deng Xizhao, the lieutenant of the town guard. He was impeached by the edict, and his subordinates were cut down.

Fifteen years of edict to promote border talents, with the recommendation of the former officials, to supervise the state army. King Qin's soldiers gathered all the capitals, robbed the public line, and cut off the woman for the first time. Shi Kong was furious and died with his pawn. Next year. Raise the world's virtuous officials, Zheng Sanjun recommended the teacher. June. Promoted to the right of the imperial history, acting as Cai Guanzhi governor of Shaanxi, and transferring troops and food.

Feng Shikong actually had some unintentional career and just wanted to spend time at home, but unexpectedly was recommended by Zheng Sanjun to come to Shaanxi to be the governor and manage logistics for Sun Chuanting. Raise wages.

The Li family's father and son implemented the so-called new policy in Shandong, but it made people angry. The impeachment recitals and the detainment papers were almost able to line up from Beijing to Nanjing. However, the emperor could only act as if he didn't see it, first, he was at war at that time. I can't afford to provoke these officers with troops. Second, the Li family and the Ming system are inseparable, and compared with the local Tusi, the degree of dependence on the Ming court is much lower than that of Qin Liangyu, the stone pillar Tusi. Therefore, even the descendants of the saint were full of resentment against the actions of the Li family father and son in Shandong, but Emperor Chongzhen also turned a deaf ear. The imperial historians were in a hurry, and the emperor dropped a sentence coldly.

"I can issue an order, and the father and son of the Li family will go to Beijing to ask for the guilt, and I can even issue an order to raid their homes. Wait for the one who dares to preach the decree? ”

Li Aiqing's father and son were in Shandong, exterminating the thieves and bandits, expelling the Jiannu bandits, and encouraging farmers and soothing the exiles. It is reasonable that the local money and grain taxes have been tightened, and the demand is more urgent and more. Let alone. "Chongzhen threw out a killer move, which made those who were regarded as crows speechless for a while." Which of the granges and farms of Li Aiqing and the Nanyue Army in Shandong and Denglai did not pay taxes on money and grain in accordance with the tax system he promulgated? ”

However, Li Shouhan, Li Huayu and his son can certainly show their strength unscrupulously in Shandong, and even the Confucian family in Qufu has to pay money and grain according to the tax system. However, the reason why they can do this is that there are hundreds of thousands of elite teachers behind them who don't need to pay a penny or a grain of rice, but, Master Inspector, do you have such a hard handle in your hands?

It is said that it is the saint's court, and it is the Qin Wangfu in Xi'an City at this moment, and it is difficult for you to collect their money and food for a grain of rice and a penny!

He thought of it and said it, but it provoked Sun Chuanting's loud voice and laughter.

"Qin Wangfu? They are nobles in the sky, golden branches and jade leaves. Naturally, the Governor could not be bothered. However, the Governor can come to the door to explain the benefits and disadvantages to His Royal Highness the King of Qin. Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai, Zhang Xianzhong and other generations killed King Fu Chitose in Luoyang, murdered His Royal Highness King Xiang in Xiangyang, and forced away King Zhou's family in Kaifeng. Just ask, are there any eggs under the nest? What's more, at present, the two of them are coerced by millions of people, and according to Guan Luo and Jingxiang, there is a faint tendency to be arrogant. With Heluo, Jingxiang four battle places, Guanzhong its hometown, Shimajia world, according to it can be dominated, is bound to go west to Tongguan. If the soldiers come to the city, aren't they afraid that the things of Luoyang, Xiangyang, and Bianliang will reappear in Guanzhong? ! ”

Such a naked threat made the civil officials below Feng Shikong cold, it seems that our master has been in the prison for a long time, and he has forgotten the way of loyalty and forgiveness taught by the saints. How can you state the benefits and harms to His Royal Highness King Qin like this? We should use the general trend of the world and the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period to persuade Your Highness, and ask Your Highness to take out money and food to reward the three armies.

However, Niu Chenghu, Zheng Jiadong and others had a light in their eyes, and the actions of this superintendent were quite in line with their appetites. When they went to various places to extort prefectures and counties, they all used such similar reasons, that is, "Lao Tzu's soldiers can't fight, they can't fight, they can't fight, they are hungry and cold, you have to come up with money and food" to force local officials to reward. Unexpectedly, such a hooligan trick was originally thought to be used only by them old military sticks, but I didn't expect that a scholar like Master Sun would actually use it perfectly.

The next day, Sun Chuanting, the governor of the three sides, set up a full set of honor guards and led the civil and military officials in Xi'an City to the palace of the King of Qin to pay homage to His Royal Highness the King of Qin. To this His Royal Highness, he made it clear to his face that he would implement the method of one errand and one food in Qindi, and asked the prince to be sympathetic and take the lead in setting an example.

Of course, at this time, Zhu Cunji, the king of Qin, although he was a concubine, his temper was not small compared to several old Qin kings. When Sun Chuanting asked him to take the lead in paying the money and grain taxes, how could he pay them? This is what the so-called good wealth is hard to give.

Of course, when Sun Chuanting politely stated the interests to him by "presenting facts and reasoning", especially when he pointed out to him that once the surrounding terrain of Lixian City was besieged by Li Zicheng and Luo Rucai's army, it would be difficult for him to escape, and His Royal Highness the King of Qin suddenly hung his head like a defeated rooster.

However, it is an upside-down donkey.

"If you want to make Lone pay money and grain taxes, this matter is inconsistent with the ancestral system, and it is difficult to obey your fate!"

"However," Zhu Cunji's eyes rolled, "I just listened to what you said, defend Qin with Qin soldiers, and raise Qin soldiers with Qin land." There is some truth in it, since Lone is in Guanzhong, he can also be regarded as a member of the Qin people. The so-called responsibility to defend the territory. Although the payment of money and grain is not in line with the ancestral system, Lone is also willing to contribute a little to the people of Qindi, and it can be regarded as an example for the education party. ”

After several pretentious acts, Zhu Cunji, the king of Qin, expressed his willingness to "lend" a part of Sun Chuanting's money and grain in the harvest according to a fixed amount in the fields under the jurisdiction of Wang Zhuang for his training and warfare.

After another bargaining, the Qin Wangfu and the Governor Yamen reached a consensus on the amount of money and grain that should be paid for the Wangfu Zhuangtian. No matter what quality of land, it was "loaned" to the governor's yamen according to the standard of three buckets of grain and rice. And the Governor's Yamen issued a stamp stamped with the Great Anti-Seal as a receipt.

If you don't pay the grain and rice, you need to "lend" a silver dollar to the governor's yamen per acre of land.

Don't think it's not cost-effective to pay, who makes the price of grain in Guanzhong remain high?

"When the lower officials left the capital, the merchants in the capital suggested to the lower officials that if His Royal Highness was willing to plant cotton, they would be willing to buy it all. With students as a guarantor, they will not dare to make His Highness suffer! ”

At the dinner table of the ceremonial banquet of Sun Chuanting in the Qin Palace, Sun Chuanting appropriately gave Zhu Cunji, who was in pain, a good idea.

"Growing cotton? ……”

After leaving the Qin Palace, Sun Chuanting's new nickname quickly spread among the large and small mansions in Xi'an City!

"Crazy Sun!" (To be continued......)
