Dai Cong didn't care about things like the whole army, non-offensive, and the League of Nations.

Because the fate of the Song State is not decided by the local nobles of the Song State, this is already a sure thing.

What Dai Cong is more concerned about is how much money the Mo family is prepared to help build an alliance, which is very critical and important to him, and it can be regarded as the first major event that can win the hearts of the people since he took charge of the Song Kingdom.

Many landless farmers stayed in Shangqiu, including many who lost their land by annexing land by various illegal or legal means.

These people are the destabilizing factor in Shangqiu, and Dai Cong wants to solve them, at least so that he can get the support of a part of the people.

But he had no money and no ability to organize reclamation.

Dai Cong has read some books of the Guanzi School, and the Guanzi School's views on the economy are based on the premise that the government will naturally do nothing about the economic Tao, for example, in the famine year, it is necessary to encourage the rich to consume and carry out infrastructure construction.

The Guanzi school believes that the sum of social wealth is sufficient, and the important issue is distribution, if the rich can build a large number of buildings, build houses, and even carve firewood for cooking in a famine year, so as to promote the reverse circulation of wealth.

However, the wealthy families of Shangqiu did not have such great strength to consume so much labor, and the consequences of a large number of landless and unemployed people gathering in the capital, Dai Cong understood very well in his heart.

Who is the rich now? Dai Cong thinks that Sishang is a wealthy man.

To build a league, you need money and people. People can use money to buy food and clothing, they can suspend their anger, and they can keep the capital stable.

Although the money spent on the construction of the league is not much, and the number of people who can be cashed out for work is not large, at least it ...... This is the first "thing for the benefit of the people" since Dai Cong became the chief of the Inquiry Yuan, and it has made a good start.

The subsequent conscription of the standing army, the construction of water canals, and the construction of roads connecting the commercial agriculture in the eastern part of the Song Kingdom to the Sishang water transportation network were all discussed by the Mo family with him in advance, and they could all quickly alleviate the contradictions.

For example, the conscription of the standing army is similar to the later Song Dynasty's integration of disaster victims into the army, as long as it is properly trained, it can also have sufficient combat effectiveness, if half of the musketeers of Europa in later generations are scum, and half are transported from all over the country by human traffickers, combat effectiveness is not a problem.

As for the construction of water canals and the construction of roads in the eastern part of the Song Kingdom, the Mo family was also happy to pay this money.

The ambition of the Mo family is the world, not the non-attack on the country, sooner or later it will be cultivated, and it will be part of the world in the future.

The second is economic interests.

The third is that the Mohists are not short of currency now; The Song Kingdom is not short of grain and cloth now; The reason for the aggravation of contradictions stems from the unfair distribution of wealth and the intensification of wealth and poverty caused by the private ownership of the means of production, as well as the problem of reverse circulation.

By the way, it can also quickly make the currency of Sishang become the legal tender of the Song Kingdom, collect more precious metals such as gold and copper, and rely on grain, iron, precious metals and handicrafts as the standard fund is enough to ensure the credibility of the currency.

It is said to be a coalition platform, but when it was built, it could actually be used as an acropolis fortress for future defense.

Coupled with the subsequent immigration and the policy of attracting immigrants to the Hongze Lake District, many of the contradictions that arose in the eastern part of the Song Dynasty under the overall liberal economic policy of doing nothing could actually be alleviated by the vast buffer zone of the Northern Jiangsu Plain.

It's just that Sishang should first focus on the demand for labor in Sishang industry and commerce, and vigorously alleviate the shortage of industrial and commercial workers and the demand for industrial and commercial workshops to expand their production capacity under the expansion of the market, and wait until it is stable before sending the remaining population to become homesteaders.

Although the policy of farming and warfare can quickly win the world, the consequences are also severe.

Ploughing and warfare were progressive under the feudal system of aristocracy elsewhere, but it was reactionary in areas where the germination of industry and commerce had already emerged.

Sishang did not have enough cadres and enough capable personnel to set up farms with no manor owners, farms with concentrated land and concentrated populations in northern Jiangsu.

On the whole, the standard of living of yeoman farmers at this time was much higher than that of hired workers in the cities, but at least they had something to eat.

There is a way to live, for Dai Cong, this is a great act, although the people also know that this is the operation of the Mo family behind the scenes, but at least he, the Great Yin of the Inquiry Yuan, will not retake the fate of the rebellion of the people in the capital.

Nowadays, the distinction between the country and the field has been broken, but the meaning of the people of the country was still the people who lived in the capital at the beginning, and when the majority of the population lived in the city and the surrounding cities, controlling the city was equivalent to controlling the foundation of a country, and in the troubled times of frequent coups, controlling the national capital was basically equivalent to half the success of the coup.

Dai Cong still understands this truth, so he is sincerely grateful for the Mo family's policy, at least the Mo family doesn't seem to have the intention of cooking rabbits and dogs, and he, the Da Yin of the Inquiry Yuan, can continue to do it for a while.

…………

In the southwest of the Song Dynasty, the old land of the Chen State, the prince who rebelled against the restoration of the Chu State more than ten years ago, the Chen County of the Chu State now, the Zhoukou Huaiyang of the later generations, the Yingchen of the decline of the Chu State, and the capital of King Chen Sheng after the unveiling of Daze Township.

In addition to the elite new army of Cheguang, who was absolutely loyal to the king of Chu, several nobles of the Qu, Jing, and Zhao clans, who were powerful in the court, also followed.

This tour was caused by the coup d'état of the Song State, and the King of Chu had to deal with some things personally, and Chen Caidi, as the pillar of the royal power of the Central Plains of the Chu State, was also the best place for the King of Chu to guide this major event.

The prince Liangfu went out on behalf of the king to patrol in Dongting Cangwu, and the prince Zang was in charge of the country in Yingdu.

The prince, the mound is enshrined in the shrine, and the one who sees the monarch is also the one who eats day and night, so it is called the mound. The monarch is guarded, there are rules to follow, from the army to the army, to guard the country, and the ancient system.

In addition to the crown prince Zang who stayed in Yingdu, there were several Shangzhu countries who were promoted because of their military exploits in the capital, and some of Chen Caidi's new troops who were allocated land were also near Yingdu, but some nobles with huge family power accompanied them, and the king of Chu was not at ease to leave them in the capital.

Chen Di is prosperous, even if he only experienced the war five years ago, but with the reason that some of the old nobles were loyal to the prince, the king of Chu implemented land reform in Chen Di, anyway, it was not the land of the king of Chu but the nobles, which was really drastic, which made Chen Di quickly restore its original prosperity, even better.

Or say, Chen was at the turn of Chu and Xia, and the goods of fish and salt were good, and his people were Duojia. Because of the fact that Chu and Xia won the championship and claimed to be barbarians, the exchanges between Chu and the Central Plains countries were mostly divided by Chu and Xia.

The earliest developed regions of the Central Plains, such as Zheng and Song, were all near Chendi, and because of the chasm, Chendi became an important passage in the Central Plains of Chu.

Coupled with the development of Sishang, the progress of Chen Cai's land reform, and the prosperity of Chen Di made King Chu very happy.

It's just that this joy is long-lasting, and now the king of Chu is scolding some nobles for their stupidity in the palace.

News came from the south that there was a popular uprising in Anlu, which was called an uprising according to Sishang.

Because of the rebellion against the nobles of Anlu, the people chose to revolt, seized a large number of weapons, so much so that they captured the entire city of Anlu, and claimed to establish "true equality", to divide the land of the nobles equally, and to curb the merchants who were dependent on the nobles.

Obviously, this uprising was influenced by the Mo family and the peasant theory, but if it is said that the Mo family led and controlled it, it is not, I am afraid that some local people spontaneously broke out after receiving some propaganda.

This kind of thing is not big, it is not small, and there are often uprisings and riots, but this time the reason why the king of Chu scolded him for being stupid is different from the original.

Anlu is on the edge of Yunmengze, at this time the huge Yunmengze has not yet been developed, when the Jin State broke through Lu Hun, a large number of Lu Hun's nobles fled, together with the nobles fled with many people, these people were placed here by the Chu State, it was called Anlu.

Anlu is backed by a tributary of the Yangtze River and borders Yunmengze below, and water transportation is developed, which also makes a large number of strange goods continue to be transported, including some muskets.

The local nobles and feudal lords of Anlu formed a private army that used arquebuses instead of bows and crossbows, which was said to be normal, but the bad thing was that one person could hold an arquebus, so that a large number of farmers in the fiefdoms were no longer apprentices as consumables but became projectile troops.

After this uprising, the people shouted slogans not only true equality, but also anti-aristocracy and not anti-king, asking the king to govern well, and to deal with the doctors and nobles who caused the people to levy heavy taxes that made the people miserable.

Originally, the projection troops of the Chu State were cultivated by the "village shooting" under the village community system, and under the village community system, in addition to continuing the tradition of redistributing land, the people also needed to serve in the military and labor, and they could survive without increasing exploitation.

Under the remnants of the clan communes of the old system, the land needed to be redistributed within the village community, and it was only gradually disintegrated, but under the low-intensity warfare of the old system and the era of vehicle warfare, it was possible to ensure that the population participating in the "village shooting" could select enough projection troops.

Township shooting is a folk custom, and it is also a kind of military system that selects and projects troops, and conforms to the feudal system and the village community system, and the clan era.

It's a circle.

If the poor can't afford to eat, they won't have the opportunity to practice village shooting, so most of the archer troops are the part of the people who are okay, at least not starving, and better than the apprentices. This group of people has no interest in "rebellion" and is often the backbone of the suppression of rebellion.

However, with the gradual disintegration of the village community clan and other systems, the dumping of a large number of handicraft skins and luxury goods in Sishang, the smuggling and selling of weapons and arms, etc., the township shooting system that originally conformed to the village community system and the aristocratic system also gradually collapsed.

With the collapse of the land system, the deepening of private ownership in the hearts of the people, and the aggravation of exploitation, how many people will have the spare energy to "shoot in the countryside"?

A crossbow is not the same as a bow, and even if a bow can be cultivated in batches, the cost is much higher than that of a crossbow, not to mention a musket.

The nobles needed more troops to assert their power against the central government, as the king of Chu had already trained a new army of firearms.

It all takes money.

The handicraft industry was underdeveloped, and it could only be started from the peasants in the fiefdoms.

In recent years, grain has not been worth much, handicrafts are not wanted by the Mohists, and the nobles want both more luxury goods and private servants, and the more money they collect, the more the contradictions will intensify.

When the conflict intensifies, more privateers are needed to maintain it, and more privateers spend more money.

The village archery system collapsed, and a few farmers who were proficient in archery could not be selected, so they needed to rely on muskets, so that the apprentices who could only be out-of-production soldiers could be defeated by one hundred to become musketeers in the hands of aristocratic private soldiers.

A riot left the local nobles helpless and had to flee in a hurry.

Under the original patriarchal system, scholars were out of production as samurai, one fighting ten; Some well-fed commoners were selected as the projection class with village shooting, and killing soldiers was like shooting targets. It was very difficult for the farmer to resist.

Many previous sub-national riots and coups were initiated by the locals of the national capital, because they themselves were the most important military force in a country.

Anlu is not the capital of the country, but after the emergence of gunpowder, the gap between the nobles and the common people was narrowed, and after the popular rebellion, the arsenal was seized, the nobles were driven away, and even although it was unrealistic, utopian, and limited, there was a "program" that had never been there before-the sage and the people cultivated together, the city was not the same, and everyone had private land.

This is truly unprecedented.

It was the aristocracy who led the people to revolt, and they could be regarded as aristocrats with a conscience, nobles who had been propagated by ideas such as the Mo family peasants, because the people were illiterate and were unlikely to know these truths.
