Chapter 328: Henchman Xiangling
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Liaodong belonged to one of the Seven Heroes of Yandi, after the rise of the Sixteen Kingdoms, after the attack of the Sui and Tang dynasties, Goguryeo was completely integrated into China, the Han Dynasty placed four counties, and the Three Kingdoms was Changli County.
For a long time, Liaodong has always been a place where many ethnic groups lived, and the population once reached its peak during the Jin Dynasty, and the Han population of the entire Liaodong during the Yuan Dynasty, including the mature women who changed their surnames to Han, was about 500,000.
At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Red Turban Army entered Liaodong, and the Yuan army competed with each other for the people, four years of melee made the population of Liaodong decrease sharply, the Ming Dynasty was established, and the registered population of the Han people counted by the government did not exceed 100,000, and most of these Han people called themselves Liao.
At that time, a large number of Han people fled to the Korean Peninsula for refuge and settlement, and due to the defeat of the war, the Yuan Dynasty generals Naha and Yesu coerced a large number of Liaoxi people to move north.
In order to prevent the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty from going south, Zhu Yuanzhang issued an order to forcibly relocate 80,000 households in western Liaoning to enter the customs, and more than 200,000 gold people and more than 100,000 people from Beiping Prefecture were scattered to various places, and the Han people in various provinces were relocated to enrich the north and eastern Liaodong.
The construction of Dingliao Zuo, Dingliao Qian, Dingliao Central, Dingliao Hou, Dongning, Jinzhou, Xiazhou, Gaizhou, Haizhou, Liaohai, Shenyang Central, Shenyang Zuo, Shenyang Right and other thirteen guards, once made the original generation of indigenous Han soldiers less than 20,000, the rest are enriched from the Guannei Han people.
Zhu Yuanzhang's decision was undoubtedly very wise, since the Song Dynasty, the Han people who lived in Liaodong, the ethnic hybrids were ruled by the Xianbei Liao Jin Yuan for hundreds of years, and the imprint of their own nation has become increasingly blurred, and they don't care who they are fighting for.
The Han people who immigrated to Liaodong were mainly military households, just like European immigrants in the Age of Discovery, all of them belonged to armed immigrants, and about 100,000 people migrated one after another.
In the 28th year of Hongwu, after the Ming Dynasty completely defeated Naha, it obtained nearly 220,000 soldiers and civilians, and more than 60,000 people fled north of the Songhua River due to surrender, and most of them entered Korea. A small part was plundered by the Jurchens, and later the DPRK voluntarily returned tens of thousands of people.
The surrender of Nahachu made Liaodong basically stable, the establishment of Duoyanwei made most of the Mongol tribes lay down their arms and honestly live as nomads, and the Jurchens went south in order to live a better life and avoid the Mongol butcher's knives north of the Great Khing'an Mountains, which made the population of Liaoxi, which was once uninhabited, grow rapidly.
At present, the total population of Liaodong cannot be counted at all, but the number of ethnic minorities accounts for about a quarter of the total population, and there are more than 400,000 people with Han people as the main body under the rule of the government, and every household is a military household, which can mobilize more than 200,000 soldiers.
Zhu Yuanzhang's painstaking management. Left a precious legacy to his descendants, and the reason why Emperor Yongle was able to set up a name for future generations is no less than the Nuer Gandu Division of the Andong Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is based on the merits of Emperor Taizu.
The rise of the Manchu Qing Dynasty has many inevitable and accidental factors, and there is nothing wrong with Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di's father and son's strategy in Liaodong, they all conform to the existing conditions, or respond to Xu Hao's old saying, future generations have no future, who can complain?
Today, the area actually occupied by the Han people in Liaodong is expanding every year. And every year, there will be a steady stream of Han Chinese migrating to enrich the population. After Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, the number of guards increased to 19, with a total of more than 80 thousand households and a standing army of 130,000 people. The Tuntian army was 60,000, and the power of the Ming Dynasty had an absolute advantage in Liaodong.
Recently, Xu Hao has been pondering Liaodong and found that the imperial court's policy towards ethnic minorities is too lenient, and he can quickly unite his heart in the early stage. After that, it will become a problem.
There were 30,000 Koreans and more than 20,000 Jurchens, and the Mongols were not counting the people under their rule. Compared with the death of the Han people, the military households have been in the army for generations. In addition to farming and weaving, they also had to bear heavy taxes and labor, and they had to provide logistical supplies during wartime, and even if they did not fight, the male members of the family had to serve as reserve soldiers, which was too heavy. It is also because most areas of Liaodong do not have yamen, and because of the independence of the guards, in the long run, military households will easily become the private property of officers.
The imperial court's policy towards the Korean Jurchens can be described as easy to enslave, let them be autonomous, only one person is drawn for every five dings as an army, and the murder and crime guards are often beyond the reach of the whip, no wonder there are often people who sigh that "it is better to be born in Liao than to walk in Hu", which is why the Manchu Qing Dynasty was able to develop and grow the fundamental reason, too many people in the middle and late Ming Dynasty would rather be slaves than be subjected to multiple exploitation and oppression by the court and officers.
"Abolish the military household system, the policy is tilted towards the Han people, and it is necessary to set up prefectures and counties in Liaodong, move the mature women to Guannei, attach importance to commercial acquisition and taxation to replace and reduce the burden on the peasants, and so on to do everything that should be done, and leave no regrets before dying."
Xu Hao finally made a conclusion, but unfortunately it is easier said than done, and there will be too many problems and obstacles in actual operation.
However, Xu Hao believes that there is no need to rush to abolish the military household system for at least twenty or thirty years, because now is the period of rising national strength, which will save the state treasury countless money. In the past 20 years of the Hongwu Dynasty, Liaodong has reclaimed more than 20,000 acres of farmland, planted rice, wheat, soybeans, cotton and other food crops, and produced more than 40,000 stones a year.
Moreover, military households cannot be abolished in all places, and some areas still need to be retained, just like the Xinjiang Production Corps in later generations, which cannot be one-size-fits-all.
Suddenly, Xiangling smiled and smiled, and three months was enough time for her to come out of the grief of her parents' death.
"Here you go."
Xu Hao looked at the paper handed over by Qianqiansu, and joked with a smile: "If you want to say that this big family is the worst of the maids who pull the fiber from the media, often I have a leg with my son first, so I have to drag my own lady into the water together." ”
Xiangling immediately said unhappily: "I'm the girl's son, I help steal the incense and steal the jade and count the others, if you want to have a next time in the future, can't you, hum!" ”
Xu Hao smiled and said: "I just had a feeling for a while, don't you know that you and Musk Yue Xiangyu are the most loyal to me, now that Xiangyu is not here, Musk Moon is looking at Qingwen's traitor in everything, and your sister has also become Madame's eagle dog, who else can you count on to do some bad things?" ”
"It's good to know." Xiangling raised her little face proudly.
"But you have to be careful, you have to be a low-key person, I will leave you with a confidant, don't let them gang up to ask for guilt, and send them to other places." Xu Hao looked at the paper while jokingly, "It's asking me to go over at night to do that shameful thing." ”
Xiangling's face immediately turned red, and no one on the left and right couldn't help but whisper, "Is it really comfortable to do that?" ”
Xu Hao looked at the curious baby who was exhaling like an orchid, and said mysteriously: "Of course, when you listen to the corner on weekdays." Don't feel anything in your body? ”
"I don't sue you." Xiangling's face became more and more ruddy, and she suddenly asked, "When will you comb Zhiqing and Sister Qingwen?" I always go to find my grandmother to satisfy my hunger, but the people around me don't care. ”
Xu Hao sighed: "This is for himself, right?" I really don't know what I have to do to make your sister die-hard to follow. ”
"Phew! Ask while knowing the answer. Xiangling was knocked out of her thoughts, leaving a slightly resentful look, and hurried away with a red face.
But it was said that at this time, a nun came to Zhu Qiaoqiao's room, Wang Xuanqing and Mei and others sat and listened to her tell stories, this nun is called Jinghai is the host of the Jingxin Nunnery in the city, and she specializes in going from house to house to explain the anecdotes and romances between men and women for women, and it is also a secret fashion in the circle of noble ladies who do not have too many entertainment programs nowadays.
Jinghai was born in his twenties and was quite beautiful. Zhu Qiaoqiao quipped: "You are so young and peugeot, you can marry a husband who is anti-vulgar, and you can be regarded as having a lifelong dependence, why bother to do things outside the red dust." ”
Jinghai smiled: "Grandma doesn't know, it's too troublesome to talk about the word husband, but she can live freely and happily in this pure method." ”
Because they are very familiar with each other, they have no scruples about talking to each other, and Wang Xuanqing, who listens with a smile, secretly pays attention to every move of her beautiful aunt from time to time, and she has been intimate with her sister-in-law recently. I can't help but wonder why the third child is willing to let go of this touching delicacy close to his mouth?
Wang Xuanqing secretly said I don't believe you Xu Hao doesn't eat the grass next to the nest, there must be a ghost in my sister-in-law today, I just can't leave at night, but I want to see if you are close to me.
At this moment, Mei said: "What is this saying? Don't you follow the rules? That had a husband. Knowing the pain and knowing the heat to give birth to a boy and a girl, with a reliance so as not to be bullied, how dare you wild man stand up for you? ”
Jinghai smiled: "How difficult is it to find a wishful man?" In case you marry a rude man who has a rough temper, stinky body, and does not understand the amorous sex. or found a good man, and the fake man who regarded himself as a woman, a pedantic talent. A reckless man with the courage of a horseman, an old husband who is old? Amitabha! Even if he finally met a good man, who knew that he would be short-lived. Ah! Look at the stinky mouth of the poor nun, it should be beaten, and the grandmothers still hope to atone for their sins. ”
Wang Xuanqing frowned slightly and said, "It's okay, who will blame you for your unintentional mistakes?" ”
Jinghai hurriedly stood up and slapped himself a few times, and said, "Since you have no intention of saying the wrong thing, then the poor nun will tell a secret matter today." There is a beautiful widow living in a family I often go to, and she looks like a grandmother when she looks like a grandmother, and her demeanor is really not ordinary.
She has a treasure in her hand, called 'Thirty-six Palaces are all spring', which is twice as interesting as a man's thing, and then I asked for one after a thousand things, and the taste of having fun at night is really wonderful, what do you want to have such a good thing, and what is the use of a man? ”
Zhu Qiaoqiao sneered, and said with a roll of eyes: "Here is this usual trick again, take it out quickly, why are you hiding it?" There are no men in this house, so there is no need for your treasure to keep and use. ”
At that moment, Jinghai turned around with a smile and took out the baggage, opening it layer by layer, Wang Xuanqing and Mei's family are all from the past, and they don't need to look at it to know that it is nothing more than those spring paintings of Burmese Ling, which should have been there for widows for a long time, and they don't want to have it.
Zhu Qiaoqiao glanced at the delicate object in Jinghai's hand, and didn't take it to look at it if it was dirty, but said with a smile: "What are you?" I have something that I can't see in the daytime, not in the lamplight, and I can use it like a man's thing. ”
Jinghai was surprised and said, "Grandma has such a rare treasure?" Can you give some insight to the poor nuns? ”
Zhu Qiaoqiao shook her head meaningfully and said: "Your qualifications are still a little worse, my aunt can give it a try, Xuanqing doesn't know......"
As soon as these words came out, Mei's expression, who was a thief, couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, and he got up and said, "What nonsense? Let's go. ”
Wang Xuanqing heard the song and knew the elegance, and his whole body and mind were crisp for a while. (To be continued......)
