Chapter 244 The honor is as much as a dog
Cha Jie went to Yangzhou with a lot of grief and anger...
They actually have no other choice.
Once the Red Turban Army crossed Congshan Pass, the result was that the unlucky people in Huizhou rose up, and at that time it was not just their little field that was divided.
You should know that the money Hui merchants earned outside must be transported back to their hometown cellars.
Compared with the maximum of only about three million taels, the silver buried in the cellars of those aristocratic families is probably more than ten times more than ten times more.
They are also scared!
And Marshal Yang finally took the prisoners back to Nanjing.
Amid the cheers of crowds, Kaiyuan Bo, who returned triumphantly, went straight to Chengtian Gate. His Majesty the Emperor personally greeted him in front of the door and performed the style of the people's emperor again. Now he is very skilled in acting this. In fact, during Yang Feng's expedition, His Majesty the Emperor often left the palace with the imperial concubine, comforted the people among the people, visited the wounded soldiers, and even the imperial concubine brought the palace maids to serve as amulets for the soldiers...
Full of recruitment styles!
Although the people understand what he is like, it is still very touching to be like this as an emperor. In short, His Majesty the Emperor is still deeply respected and loved by the people.
But that's all.
After all, it has only been three years, and the people clearly remember that over the past twenty years, it was him who had caused those corrupt officials to exploit themselves.
The people are not stupid.
After all, without Marshal Yang, it is impossible for such a good emperor now.
Listen to Marshal Yang and then respect and love His Majesty the Emperor. This principle cannot be wrong, just treat him as a good tablet.
And His Majesty the Emperor actually understood this, but he firmly believed that as long as he continued to do this, the Holy Lord and the King would always get what he wanted. Besides, what else could he do if he didn't do this? He had nothing else to do except be close to the people! Could it be that he was confused with the imperial concubine in the palace every day, just like the Qing Dynasty described him, it would be fine if he could do that? In short, His Majesty the Emperor now takes the people as his main job, and he is so close to the people that he takes the imperial concubine to the nursing home to cook for the elderly and widowed.
At this moment, facing Kaiyuan Bo who returned in triumphantly, Your Majesty even excitedly recited a poem in public to commemorate Kaiyuan Bo's achievements, and then announced that he would be awarded the title of Kaiyuan Bo. The original Kaiyuan Bo was obviously not enough, and he was promoted to the title of the Marquis of Liaodong County, and not just him. The two veterans who made contributions to the rebellion were also awarded the title of the county magistrate, and the three young ones were Qi Jin, Mao Guoqi, and Chen Yan.
Yang Feng’s confidants Feng Shan and dozens of others were enthroned by the county.
There were even more than 200 middle and lower-level officers who were named county men.
The Ming Dynasty restored the fifth-class title.
In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang was a fifth-class title from the beginning.
The titles originally established by the Ming Dynasty were precisely the seventh grade, including Duke of the State, Duke of the County, Duke of the County, Duke of the County, Duke of the County, Duke of the County, Male of the County.
But there were no two in the last two when the seal was sealed.
But it is not about abolishing. The official government has also discussed the memorials of the title until the end of Hongwu. In other words, it was not officially abolished in the late Hongwu period. As for how it disappeared later, it was obliterated in history. However, if it was followed by the Taizu system, these two titles could be granted.
Moreover, the new title system is given to formal fiefdoms, but it must be outside the border.
Therefore, Yang Feng's title of Liaodong County Marquis was actually granted ten thousand hectares, that is, ten thousand hectares of land outside the Liaodong Frontier. He could go outside the walls of Liaodong and open up the land wherever he liked.
Ten thousand acres.
A big landlord with one million acres of land!
And there is no need to pay taxes, but this is not required to be paid, and no one needs to pay taxes when opening land. New land can never afford to be found, which is Taizu's iron rule.
However……
Have you asked if the fried flowers agree or not?
Have you asked Ye He's a mantra if he agrees?
Asked...
Well, if Marshal Yang really asks, they will really agree. Marshal Yang is best at this.
This policy is to focus on the mentality that mosquito meat is also meat, and to give these generals and even those middle and lower-level officers who have made merits an authorization. If you have sufficient martial ethics, just go there. If you have this authorization, it is not just about land reclamation. The land in this authorized area is yours. Everything on the ground is. In short, as long as you believe that your martial ethics are sufficient, you will go there after retirement.
At that time, Yang Dashui will take the lead.
There should always be someone taking the bait, after all, there will be no major landlords in the mainland in the future.
What if someone is going to have this taste?
A title!
Of course, there is nothing else.
"The country has established titles to reward honors, and your lords are scattered like sand. It is a strange story in the world when a young man named a county."
Xiong Tingbi said speechlessly.
The lowest status of the title in this round was an ordinary soldier, and he was also a surrendered soldier. That is, Gu Si, who captured Tanhua Duke alive, and he was conferred the title of the man in Luntai County.
A hundred hectares are actually sealed.
So he can go to Urumqi to open up tens of millions of land.
I just don’t know whether the people from the Yarkand Khanate agreed or not.
Although this possibility is extremely small and there is no possibility for at least ten years, as a hereditary county man, he has obtained the iron coupon and the county man has the fourth-rank official robe. Just wearing this set of equipment can completely satisfy his thoughts of glorifying his ancestors. For this reason, he even changed his name to Gu Luntai.
But to the gentry, it seems like a monkey-like man.
"Yes, a title is a reward for honors. Isn't he capturing the commander of the always-winning army alive? Capturing the enemy's commander is certainly enough to be a county man. If you were also captured at that time, then the person who captured you alive would also be a county man."
Yang Feng said.
Xiong Tingbi was depressed.
This topic is really annoying!
"Goodbye!"
Then he bowed farewell to Yang Feng in a very aggrieved manner.
Tang Xianzu didn't say much, and silently bowed to Yang Feng.
They were released. To be precise, Yang Feng paid the fine for them, and they could leave, but after they returned, they still had to pay the money back. Yang Dashuai believed that they would not be liable for the debt, but in fact he was telling him that he would send a message to Zou Yuanbiao, who was in charge of Hongguang. Next, both sides could re-enter the ceasefire. The Red Turban Army would not continue to attack outward, but they would not provoke war again. The rest, such as shipping, trade, etc., were all based on previous examples.
They will accept it.
In fact, they were like a frightened bird, and they were hoping that Yang Feng would truce the battle.
Yang Feng had to start dividing the fields in this vast newly occupied area next. This territory is much larger than before. Basically, there are six whole prefectures and some prefectures and counties, especially Changzhou Prefecture, one of the core tax centers in the past. Although there are some cadres trained before, he is still uncertain whether it can be completed in the next few months to the beginning of spring.
This is a big project.
So during this period he needs a peaceful external environment.
However, as long as the land reform in this area is completed, as far as the current Ming Dynasty is concerned, it is impossible for anyone to stop him.
Xiong Tingbi and Tang Xianzu boarded an upward merchant ship and left Longjiang Pass Wharf in a slight silence.
