The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

Land reform has given Xinming and even the Chinese people the wings of flying!

The previous intensified land mergers have been significantly curbed. More farmers have obtained land. There are even social rumours that more than 1,000 acres of land will pay 15% of taxes, and more than 5,000 acres of land will pay 20% of taxes. Let the landlords be frightened.

When the boots landed, the court did not increase taxes, but announced that the land that was not cultivated within five years would be nationalized for free!

Due to the pressure of immigrants from the southeast and construction immigrants in the northeast, landlords cannot raise their rents, otherwise the farmers would rather immigrate. Whoever wants to plant this land can plant it!

Land reform must be accompanied by "imperial power to the countryside." Only when the court's tentacles extend into the countryside can land reform be successful. After all, a township government is located in the countryside and they specialize in this kind of affairs. The management of local officials can be compared.

It is impossible for farmers to carry out major projects on their own. The newly established township government can develop the rural economy, open up roads, develop water conservancy, level the land, and conduct unified management, popularize agricultural planting knowledge, and increase productivity.

Schools have also been established, and literacy has begun to be carried out in the vast rural areas of China.

Medical stations have been established, and doctors have made outstanding contributions to rural public medical care and health and epidemic prevention.

The township government can not only deploy and mobilize labor and resources for large-scale infrastructure construction and rural industry, but also open the way for ordinary farmers to participate in politics and grassroots autonomy.

You must be literate and the people will be able to develop the wisdom of the people before you can take the next step.

In addition, the township government can strengthen population management. The chief of the township has been in the village for many years, and others can't do anything tricky. After a long time, they can see it at a glance.

In this large-scale land reform and imperial power to the countryside, there have been repetitions, and some people have falsified, but there was no major commotion, affecting the society, and shaking the country's foundation. This reform was completed unhappily!

What the imperial court encouraged was that each owner should not occupy more than 100 acres of land, which is more than double the tax.

Encourage childbirth. The original tax on land that does not exceed 100 acres is twenty one tax. If the child has a minor child, the land tax is zero!

There is no such discount for land of more than 100 acres. The determined court is to vigorously curb land annexation. The biggest problem in China is the land problem. If hundreds of millions of farmers have no land, no ruler can sleep well, even Yan Changwu. .

In some places where there is a lot of land, the imperial court encourages large grain growers to contract, and two-thirds of the grain produced is sold to the state for tax exemption.

Of course, everything is crossing the river by feeling the stones, and the overall effect is still good!

In fact, Yan Changwu didn't bother with such a huge change. He took a seat in Nanjing, and the situation of the entire Daming became stable immediately. This is the ability of the founding prince!

He focused his attention on the Ming army facing off with the Khalkha cavalry in the north.

...

Daming Ming's defense in the north is very perfect. In 1368, the Ming Dynasty was founded and nine great monarchs were established to govern all the guards in Monan. After Yongle, Monan Zhuweisho was gradually abolished or moved inland, leaving only the nine important towns. The important town of Nine Frontiers means Liaodong Town, Jizhou Town (Tianjin Moxian), Xuanfu Town, Datong Town, Taiyuan Town (also known as Shanxi Town or Shanxi Town) on the northern border defense line extending from the Yalu River in the east to Jiayuguan in the west. Sanguan Town), Yansui Town (also known as Yulin Town), Ningxia Town, Guyuan Town (also known as Shaanxi Town), Gansu Town are nine important border defense towns, which are known as "Nine Border Towns" in history.

During the Jiajing period, Ming Ting added Changping Town and Zhenbao Town to the northwest of Beijing. During the Wanli period, Shanhai Town was separated from Jizhou Town, and Lintao Town was separated from Guyuan Town.

The Nine Borders was an important battle line for the Ming Dynasty’s defensive battle against the remnants of the Mongolian forces. After that, Mongolia declined and the Tatars rose. The battle was mainly in Liaodong Town. The Ming dynasty lost many teachers, but in the end the Tatars were defeated.

Then the Khalkha cavalry in Mobei went south, and the towns and towns on the nine borders began to become important. The imperial court strengthened the defenses of the towns and replenished soldiers, and the border line became lively.

Dealing with the nomads is no easy task. They have no problems with the horses and horses. They attacked the capital in the morning, arrived at Mozhou Town in the afternoon, and arrived at Shanhaiguan on the third day. They rounded the east of the capital, and they were in two of you. The leg can't hit him on four legs, he just hits your miserable state if he wants to hit you.

The Ming Dynasty seemed to have established a complete defense system against the Beiwei Post, but in fact the Mongolian army could maneuver back and forth between the fortresses and guard posts. The entire northern border defense in the Ming Dynasty was a big sieve, leaking water everywhere and venting everywhere.

The cavalry of the nomads was originally difficult to deal with, and the Ming Dynasty had to die on its own. Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to use the troops in the field as a defensive, and he would like to use the troops in the field to fight. The ideals are full, and the reality is very skinny. The princes, TJs, military officers, etc. stationed in various towns They are all vying to invade and occupy the farmland, and the military officers will farm for them, and the military officers will not bear the abuse, and more people will flee.

"There is a shortage of soldiers, and there is little food. The frontier army cannot achieve self-sufficiency in food. The court ordered the salt merchants to use grain from the border to exchange salt for lure. So the wealthy merchants summoned farmers to go to the border to open up wasteland. The granaries on the border are therefore sufficient.

However, in the Hongzhi reign of Emperor Xiaozong, Hubu Shangshu Yeqi asked the salt merchants to pay for the silver, and Taicang supplied grain for the border. Naturally, the salt merchants no longer controlled whether the granaries on the border were full, and the borders became deserted day by day. The price of food is getting more and more expensive, and it is becoming more and more difficult for the side military to use food.

After Wu Zong, it was commonplace for the side to pay the wages and the soldiers to flee. Things like this have become commonplace, and the preparation of the side is becoming a waste of time. Although the court has repeatedly assisted in sending soldiers, if it is not a drop in the bucket, or a tactic of adding fuel, it will not happen! "

"Now the imperial court re-implements the old system, so that the salt merchants can only use the grain from the border to exchange salt for the salt~www.wuxiaspot.com~ You see, the governor, there is the newly opened field for the salt merchants' funds!" , The prefect Fu Tianxi led the Beijing left-behind and Jiubian Governor-General Zu Dashou to observe the fields in the distance of the city.

This is the work Fu Tianxi handles, so he knows it very well.

"There is Master Laofu, this supervisor has benefited a lot!" The already gray-haired Zu Dashou humbly arched his hands.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!" Fu Tianxi bowed back in politeness.

The two people discuss the ranks of officials. Zu Dashou is the first rank of military attache, and Fu Tianxi is the fourth rank of civil servants. The new dynasty has a new atmosphere. Without the military system, the officials are big. They will not dare to be a prefect and a second-rank general like Qian Ming. Soldiers.

Zu Dashou would not underestimate Fu Tianxi because of his small official status. This Fu Zhifu was admitted to the gold list in the Ding Chouke Hall in the tenth year of Chongzhen (1637), and was given a scholarship background. He was a powerful scholar in the same year and was a scholar after Fu Zhifu. It's called Du Yinxi, and it ranks fourth in the five phases of the cabinet!

Du Yinxi climbed so fast, invisibly became the help of the same year. Zu Dashou is a veteran army leader who is sleek and naturally knows how to be a man, so the two cultures and martial arts complement each other.

The imperial court appointed Zu Dashou to preside over the military affairs in the north because of his stability, his veteran qualifications, and the ability to suppress the generals. It is not a problem to stabilize the place, but he is expected to lead the army out of the fort, and Fenglangjuxu cannot do it.

The two were patrolling along the city wall. Suddenly, they saw the plumes of smoke rising from the north, one by one, toward Jizhou Town. They were like dragons with teeth and claws, weighing heavily on the hearts of the soldiers and citizens of Jizhou Town. on.

The Khalkha Mongols are invaded!

The alarm bell rang quickly, and the people fled to the city one after another, discarding the supplies they had on hand, and running wildly, with only one thought: run away, and escape into the city is safe!

The smoke and dust rose, and a group of Mongolian cavalry went straight to Jizhou Town to the northwest of Zhou Town!
