Emperor's Resurrection Tournament: Li Shimin single-handedly cleans the Tumu Fort!

Nanjing Imperial Palace.

Liu Chan hesitated a little.

"Kill the rich gentry and harvest the fields?"

"Your Majesty, exactly. Sun Chuanting nodded.

"Taizu set the method of military households and tuntian as early as the founding of the country.

But with the increase of time, the tuntian fields in various places were encroached upon by the rich gentry.

The name of the sergeant on the list is just a name, and it has become a tool for some people to eat empty wages. "

Since he has become the secretary of the Ministry of War, Sun Chuanting is concerned about this kind of thing.

Meticulous investigation and questioning were carried out, and it took months to figure it out.

Behind those rich gentry are all officials of all sizes in the imperial court.

Or rather, it's all family.

"Do you have to kill the rich gentry who invaded Tuntian?"

Liu Chan will not kill lightly unless he has to.

The other party shook his head and arched his hand.

"Your Majesty, you must kill!

Because of the commercial tax silver, it adds up to three or four million taels a year.

If Wei Zhongxian could go further, it would only be five or six million taels.

Relying on this money alone, it is difficult to protect yourself. "

Sun Chuanting's purpose in building an official army was naturally to sweep away the peasant rebel army and the Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin.

"Five or six million taels is not enough. "

Liu Chan has also seen a lot of excerpts from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry recently.

A regular pawn costs fifty taels a year.

Five million will provide for 100,000 people, as well as armor and weapons, and so on.

Even though there are craftsmen in Nanjing, ready-made tools and places.

It can be built and costs a lot of money.

In particular, firecrackers and cannons are much more expensive than pawns.

"Your Majesty, these people are full of evil, they should be killed. "

Sun Chuanting persuaded him, and he was holding Shang Fang's sword, and now his murderous spirit was getting heavier and heavier.

After pondering for a moment, Liu Chan agreed.

"You can kill, but every rich gentleman has to die under the law of the Ming Dynasty. "

"Your Majesty, this requires a lot of manpower. "

"It's just right, let the children of the poor family who have been promoted recently go to exercise.

Real gold is not afraid of fire, you can take a look at their respective abilities.

If you do well, you will be promoted. "

I have to say, it's a good way to kill two birds with one stone.

Liu Chan is thinking about how to make the recruited poor children grow up quickly.

After all, they have a lot to learn.

"As for the subsequent division of fields, let the new officials have a good experience.

Be sure to assign it properly. "

"Yes!"

Under the emperor's order, the vast inventory of the fields began.

Starting from the vicinity of Nanjing, the encroached Tuntian was found one by one.

Mandarin Palace.

The Nanjing household servant came with a thick stack of folds.

"Your Majesty, the Tuntian that has been invaded by ninety percent has been cleared out.

All the rich gentry involved were exiled from their homes. "

Looking at the numbers on the fold, Liu Chan's mood changed a lot.

In this way, the Jiangnan range is enough to raise 10.83 million elite soldiers.

But it didn't take long for a series of bad news to come.

"Report, Houjin has broken through Datong and marched towards Shanxi!"

"Report, the operation to encircle and suppress the rebel army in northern Shaanxi failed, and the officers and soldiers suffered heavy casualties!"

When he heard the first bad news, Liu Chan was mentally prepared.

After all, Huang Taiji has been eyeing Datong for not a day or two.

However, the second bad news made him completely unexpected.

No matter how weak the officers and soldiers are, they will not suffer heavy casualties in the chaotic army!

"Your Majesty, more than 100,000 officers and troops have been wiped out in northern Shaanxi.

The rebel army is getting bigger and bigger, so please prepare early!"

Sun Chuanting was far away in Nanjing, and he was anxious about the court in the north.

Jiangnan hasn't developed yet, why did Jingshi kneel!

"Where are the rebels now?"

Sun Chuanting pointed at the map.

"Your Majesty, go on with this momentum.

The rebellious army is about to sweep Henan, and Jiangnan will be in danger at that time. "

Liu Chan, who heard the words, was not good.

Henan only needs to go four or five hundred miles to the south, and it is Nanjing.

Jiangnan, which has just been purged of the head of the army, is not almost undefended?

"Your Majesty, please make a decision early!"

Sun Chuanting arched his hand and said.

Liu Chan looked at the huge Jiangnan, and 100,000 soldiers were completely insufficient to defend it.

Each province had 20,000 troops, and the borders could not be filled.

At least 300,000 or more will be needed to keep the rebellious army out of Jiangnan.

Otherwise, you will fall into a vicious circle.

The rebel army attacked the city, but the officers and troops could not pay food and wages, and were defeated by the rebel army.

Even more unable to pay food and wages, and the combat effectiveness was weakened again.

"Let me think, let me think. "

Liu Chan looked at the increasingly difficult situation and couldn't help but feel tired.

It's too hard, isn't it?

A few days passed.

The reason for the defeat of the officers and troops has been transmitted.

"The Jingshi court is now divided into two factions, opposing each other's internal friction. "

In short, it is Donglin and other clear streams that have started a war with the former eunuch party again.

This time there was no emperor restraint on top of his head.

The battle began to heat up, and the two sides fought inextricably in the court.

The military department and the household department are naturally difficult to stay out of the matter.

As for the specific reasons for the defeat of the official army, it is easy to understand.

As long as it is proposed by the other party, whether it is right or not, whether it is beneficial to the country or not, all are opposed!

Give the salaries of the officers and soldiers in northern Shaanxi, oppose!

Give the officers and soldiers in northern Shaanxi a heavy burden of food and grass, oppose!

Give Liaodong's military salaries, grain and grass, oppose!

Against! Against!

The two factions can no longer care about the danger of the country, and both want to kill each other first.

I feel that only my own side can save Da Ming in danger.

Listening to the funny and absurd things that kept happening in Jingshi, Liu Chan only felt that he was leaving.

It's just too wise!

With this group of insects, how can you govern the country well!

"It's ridiculous, it's all for his own selfishness, and he doesn't care about the country!"

The ministers here in Nanjing have sprayed the people in Beijing.

"Shameless, shameless!"

There are some things in there, it's ridiculous!

Putting aside the Jingshi, the thorny problem was placed in front of Liu Chan.

How to deal with the rapidly deteriorating situation?

At the current pace, there will be 100,000 troops in Jiangnan a year later.

But there will be more than one million rebels in the world!

The men and horses of the Houjin will also invade the Central Plains on a large scale.

Due to the vast territory of the Ming Dynasty, these two people may not meet immediately.

After all, a Beizhili is enough for Houjin to eat.

The Jingshi court, which is fighting with each other, is almost useless.

The decree was almost confined to the territory of Beizhili, and it was difficult for even Liaodong to control the order.

"Your Majesty, I hope to make a decision as soon as possible!"

The waiter of the Ministry of Rites arched his hand and said.

"Your Majesty, make a decision early!"

Dozens of ministers, including Tobe Shiro, knelt on the ground one after another.

Even they saw how critical the situation was now!

After a long time, Liu Chan's gaze on the dragon chair became firm.

Said lightly.

"Today, there is only one way to keep Jiangnan. "

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was pleasantly surprised.

It's better to have a way than no way!

"Your Majesty, what can you do?"

"Any way can be done, as long as you can hold Jiangnan.

There will be opportunities in the future!"

But without waiting for the ministers to be happy, Liu Chan said leisurely.

"What Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng do for their rebel army, we will do it!

All the land in the south of the Yangtze River will be confiscated.

Raid all those gentry and landlords who are full of evil!

In this way, we will have enough money and food to recruit troops.

Don't say 100,000, that is, 200,000 or 300,000 horses, we can afford to raise them!"

As these words came out, the entire court fell silent.

Even the most radical Sun Chuanting, hearing this method, his heart was pounding!

This is also too radical!

If they did, wouldn't they have become rebels?

Regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one, seize all the land and kill the gentry landlords!

Then use the captured gold, silver, grain and grass to quickly recruit troops!

"Your Majesty, this law is really, really!"

Some ministers, the concept is still stuck in the past.

Subconsciously, I have to refute this approach. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

But soon some young officials realized that this method was really feasible!

Now the military leaders in Jiangnan have been purged, and all the men and horses are in the hands of the emperor.

What, you say it's a rebellion?

How can the emperor's order be called a rebellion?

Those who dare to resist are rebels. []

Grab them all and behead them all!

The ministers who were promoted from the cold family stood up one after another at this moment.

"Your Majesty, I think this plan is feasible!

However, it is not possible to kill all the rich gentry and landlords, according to their usual crimes.

Those who are full of evil are beheaded and raided their homes, and those who commit lesser crimes are only raided their homes.

Those who have a good reputation can properly keep their family property as an example. "

Even if it is an unjustifiable robbery, officials can delineate it.

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal.

All wealthy landlords should not be treated equally, and their crimes should be investigated more slowly.

In this way, the people will be more convinced. "

"300,000 horses can be recruited and trained in advance, and the raid can be carried out at the same time.

At that time, military salaries and food salaries can be delivered on the spot. "

"You can temporarily transfer all the money from the household department to the Ministry of Industry.

Expand the production of armor and weapons, and when the house is raided, there will naturally be enough money to transfer to other affairs. (bicb)"

"It's best to raid the house at the same time, and transfer all the people and horses outside the city.

Feel free to go in and quell the rebellion.

The local official uniforms are also subject to censorship and guilt. "

The ministers from poor families stood up one by one to offer suggestions.

Liu Chan's ideas will be constantly improved.

After all, the four words of rich gentry and landlord have nothing to do with them at all.

Anyway, it has nothing to do with me, watching the rich people around me being punished.

Not to mention how happy!

The protest voices of some of the old ministers were immediately drowned out by the new ministers promoted by Liu Chan.

Three or four hours of time.

The emperor's act of rebellion, nay, to clear the land, was perfected and written as a holy decree promulgated.

Nominally, the imperial court did only two things.

The first is to conduct a major examination of the rich gentry and landlords in the entire Jiangnan area, and all the guilty will be punished according to the law!

The second is to conduct an inventory of the entire land in the south of the Yangtze River, including its ownership.

Let Liu Chan, the emperor, have to sigh that Wenchen is Wenchen.

It is clearly a robbery in broad daylight, and it can also be whitewashed by them as an upright act!

In the first two hundred years, such things should have happened a lot.

In short, a mighty "rebellion" ordered by the emperor began.

The entire Jiangnan area has begun to review and clear the land with great momentum.

Countless children of poor families have changed from a state of poverty to officials in the court.

There are no complicated imperial examinations, and there are no layers of selection examinations.

As long as the talent level is high, all of them have the opportunity to be appointed officials.

As long as they are literate, they may be appointed as a clerk.

After that, it's time to take office, and according to the ability to do things, quickly promote or demote.

Some were dismissed on the spot, but many more became real officials.

Even if it is nine products, they are so precious in their eyes!

It's like a carp jumping over the dragon gate!

A cold carnival has begun.

Liu Chan, the emperor, has a status in the hearts of these people, and he is chasing the three emperors and five emperors!

After all, according to their original trajectory, let alone being an official.

Even the lowest-level officials are difficult to be.

Now, Liu Chan has given all of them a chance to turn over.

So that they can change their lives against the sky.

The degree of allegiance in my heart naturally goes without saying.

......

The huge shaking in Jiangnan can even be said to be a large-scale bloodshed.

Jingshi was also quite surprised.

Jingshi Administration.

Since Liu Chan, the emperor, was there, many people still often paid attention to Nanjing.

However, from February of the eighth year of Chongzhen.

The arrival of strange news made the courtiers of Jingshi wonder if there was a problem with the post station.

"Report, Your Majesty has rebelled in Jiangnan!"

The herald truthfully reads the above contents.

When a temperamental Wenchen heard this, he sprayed directly.

"Fart, whoever wrote the recital, he should be pulled out and beheaded!"

Oh, it was written by someone from my own side, so it must be justified.

Take a closer look and talk about it.

After reading it, the minister's eyes widened.

Holding the newspaper, he beckoned around.

"Oh no, Your Majesty has rebelled in Jiangnan!"

Sun Chengzong, the secretary of the military department who was passing by, kicked the other party to the ground.

"What nonsense!

I haven't woken up from yesterday's wine yet!"

Liu Chan has a very high status in his heart.

"Master Sun, come and see. "

With an innocent face, the other party handed the newspaper to the other party.

"Let me see. "

After reading it, Sun Chengzong's face couldn't be hung up.

Damn, Your Majesty has really rebelled.

Soon, the news spread.

The Donglin faction and the eunuchs, it was rare that there was no fight, and they sat together to discuss the matter.

"What did King Chuang do in Shaanxi and Gansu?"

"Kill the local defenders, and then kill all the rich gentry and landlords.

If there is resistance, kill them all.

Distribute part of the grain to the people, and use the stolen money, silver, and grain to recruit troops and buy horses. "

"What did Your Majesty do in Jiangnan?"

"Kill most of the military leaders and hold the military power of Jiangnan in your hands.

Then the wealthy merchant landlords in Jiangnan were examined, and all those who were guilty were beheaded and their homes were confiscated.

All those who resisted were killed as rebellion.

A part of the grain was given to the victims, and then the stolen money, silver, and grain were used to recruit troops. "

In such a comparison, the ministers of the Beijing Division found it impressively.

What Liu Chan did in Jiangnan, and what the rebel army did in Shaanxi, Gansu, Shanxi and other places.

There is no difference!

For everyone present, there was hardly much difference between the two sides.

All represent the land occupied by the other party, cannot collect taxes, and are almost independent.

Qian Qianyi, the minister who married a famous prostitute, seems to be one of the leaders of the Donglin faction at the moment.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you mean about this?

If Jiangnan's taxes are completely cut off, the household department will really have no money. "

His words silenced all the Donglin faction.

What to say, what can be said?

Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng occupied the south of the Yangtze River, and it was good to send a large army to encircle and suppress it.

But what about the emperor who occupied Jiangnan?

Did he order the officials and troops to encircle and suppress the emperor?

Nothing has happened in the past dynasties, let them meet.

A huge bug has appeared.

The most important Jiangnan, the place of taxation, and the grain production area, were occupied.

But the Jingshi Imperial Court couldn't even make any response to this.

Because it was Liu Chan, the emperor, who did it.

When they received the news, the officials of the Jiangnan local government.

Eight out of ten were punished on the spot.

Countless children of the poor family suddenly flooded the local government offices in Jiangnan.

There is no way to make Jingshi want to do anything.

It all happened so suddenly.

Make it impossible for everyone to react and parry.

"Lord Sun, why don't you have a fight with Your Majesty?

The Liaodong defense line and the extermination of the rebel army in various places all needed money and food.

Ask Your Majesty if you can bring a little more. "

The eunuch party and the Donglin faction all focused their eyes on Sun Chengzong, the secretary of the military department.

This one has the best relationship with the emperor.

The others have one count, and they don't have the face to ask for money or food.

After all, it hasn't been a year since King Rui broke into the palace to rebel!

"Old man, old man, try it. "

Under the burning eyes of everyone, Sun Chengzong could only nod helplessly.

It is a major military and political matter, and he, the secretary of the military department, is also duty-bound.

Liu Chan made such a big move in the south of the Yangtze River, and he must have collected a large amount of silver money and grain.

The ministers of the Beijing division were salivating when they saw it.

If you can send them all to Jingshi, the situation will take a sharp turn for the worse!

Just give it all to us!.
