Xiangyang Prefecture, Nanjing, Song Dynasty.

The priest He Li followed a small yellow gate and walked in the red city. Because of the large number of red bricks, almost all the buildings inside and outside Xiangyang City were red. The buildings inside and outside the city were taller, and they were often three-story "high-rise buildings". The streets were wide and straight, and the ground was covered with stones.

Walking in Xiangyang City, where there are no residents and many places are still under construction, He Li couldn't help but think of Tianjin. The architectural styles of these two cities are really close. However, the urban area of ​​Tianjin is larger, and the industry and commerce are very prosperous, so it seems a bit messy.

The inner city of Xiangyang is relatively small, and everything is orderly. Although it is small, it also exudes a majestic atmosphere everywhere, and it has a majestic demeanor that the emperor stays in and stays.

Although He Li didn't know much about military affairs, he could also feel the sturdiness of this red city. The tall and sturdy walls, the face of a triangular horse like a sharp arrow, the unremarkable moat, and the outer city built along the river. All of them showed that this city would discourage all enemies.

Compared with the defense of Xiangyang Prefecture City, Kaifeng Prefecture City is simply an unprepared city. There are many ways to capture Kaifeng Prefecture City, which can be written as a whole book "Siege Military Arts".

And this Xiangyang majestic city, at least in the view of He Li, the top scholar who has only read a few new military stories in Songyang Academy, cannot be compromised.

It seems that the emperor wants to regard Xiangyang as his family, but it makes some sense...

"Stand up...right, look forward...!"

The sudden loud voice of command interrupted He Zhuangyuan's thoughts. He turned his head and looked in the sound, and saw that in a clearing field outside the Xiangyang Palace City, there were a large number of soldiers wearing red war jackets, marching in a row amid the officer's commands, which looked very neat.

"Master, these people are..." He Li whispered to the little yellow gate walking in front of him.

"They are all clans," replied Xiao Huangmen. "I originally thought that following the official family south to Xiangyang was just a formality, but I didn't expect that I was caught and trained. It was really hard."

He Li was a little embarrassed to treat Zongzi as a military general.

"They will?"

The little yellow gate laughed and said in a gloating tone: "If you don't train well, you will be beheaded! You killed a few days before you arrived in Xiangyang Mansion..."

"Behead!" He Li shook, "They are Zongzi!"

"So what about the Zongzi?" Xiao Huang's sect, "The government let the killing, but there are still people who cannot be killed?"

As he spoke, Xiaohuangmen looked up at Xuande Tower in Xiangyang Palace City, "The official family is now watching Xuande Tower. No one is not good at practicing well. Even if you don't behead your head, you can't escape with a military stick... That's really a hit, sticks will be bloody!"

It turns out that Zhao Ji was personally supervising Zong Zijun!

He Li thought to himself: Who said that the official family is incompetent? Building a powerful city in Xiangyang and cultivating elite soldiers of the clan are clearly the heroic ruler of a generation!

The emperor was frowning at this time and stood on the Xuande Gate Tower. Seeing the thousands of sects below, they were all powerless in training. They were far inferior to the former warriors back then. How can they defend the Song Dynasty in the future? It seems that they still need to be trained strictly!

To be honest, Lord Zhao Daxiong was also forced to do so. Last time Yelu Yanxi almost entered Kaifeng Prefecture. If Xiangyang Prefecture is not built, there may be no place to hide in the future!

The Lianzong Son Army was also forced... The imperial guards were not reliable, and the new army could not be reliable, and it was not enough to rely entirely on Zhaoyi's army. After thinking about it, Zhao Ji had no choice but to rely on Zongzi.

They are all brothers from the Zhao and Song dynasties and are in the same country as the country. Is it reliable? Of course, Zhao Ji never thought of letting Zong Zhengjun go to the field to fight, as long as they can serve as the defenders of Xiangyang.

There is a sub-10,000 sect, plus the same number of Huaixi and Guanzhong soldiers recruited, and they are trained with new officers, which should be able to protect the Xiangyang city...

"Your Majesty," Liang Shicheng's voice sounded in Zhao Ji's ears, "Chenwulang, He Li, chief clerk of the Honglu Temple, please see him."

"Oh, Xuan." Zhao Ji frowned, "I summoned him on Xuande Building."

"Here."

Liang Shicheng bowed, turned around and left, heading down Xuande Tower.

Zhao Ji actually hated He Li very much, so he waited for He Li to be punished after returning from Tianjin in a dim manner. Beheading is not allowed, but arresting him in the Imperial Prison to drink chicken soup does not violate the ancestral system...

But who would have thought that the chicken soup from the Censorate Prison would not be used anymore!

Although He Li did not say that Wu was good at ancient times, he had a relationship with the Dongliao Kingdom, which was dependent on Zhou. He also made an agreement with the Prime Minister of the Dongliao, and the Dongliao first sent 60,000 troops to attack Linhuang Prefecture, the Song Dynasty and the Western Liao Dynasty, and the Liang Kingdom sent troops to attack Datong after the main force of the Jin army left Datong.

This plan is beneficial to the Song Dynasty no matter how you look at it, and you have a great grasp of success. Therefore, Zhao Ji had no reason to send He Li to the Censorate Prison for a soup... Not only could he not be allowed to go to the Censorate for a soup, but he had to be promoted.

Moreover, because this guy is the top scorer, the starting price is high. He was given to Rulin Lang, who was among the fourth ranks, from the beginning. He made a contribution to the last time and was transferred to Chengwulang, the Chengwulang among the Beijing officials. Now he has to be promoted to Chengfenglang, who is above the eighth rank... Even if he has a degree, he will be able to become a court official in a few years!

Zhao Ji, who was facing He Li with his butt, looked quite scary after hearing the top scholar's words!

Just as Zhao Ji was thinking about sending He Li a prone to commit crimes, He Li took out another memorial book and raised it high above his head: "Your Majesty, Chengwu Lang, He Li, the chief clerk of the Honglu Temple, has a memorial."

And book?

"Bring it." Zhao Ji said.

Liang Shichen took He Li's memorial and handed it to Zhao Ji with both hands.

Zhao Ji took the memorial and opened it to see the topic, and his face changed.

Because the title of this memorial is "Breaking a repression and reunification of land"!

This incident made a big fuss... Zhao Jixin said: Why did he be so wise as an emperor who was just a mistake and called a madman to be the top scholar?

Suppressing mergers and exerting equal land! This kind of thing cannot be done with a good article. A square field tax law that measures land and checks hidden fields has been tested and eliminated three times, and even the absolute king Wang Anshi cannot push it! What's more, it's equal land?

Zhao Ji was already happy for He Li, and turned around to look at He Li with a serious face, "He Qing, do you know the "Fang Tian All-Tax Treaty"?"

"I know," He Li replied, "this is a new law formulated by King Shu in the fifth year of Xining."

"How is your "Booking and Announcement and Average Land" compared with the "Fang Land and Average Tax Treaty"?"

"Incomparable," He Li said, "The Treaty on the Square Field Taxation is to accumulate wealth and collect more taxes. However, suppressing mergers and implementing equal land is not to collect more land taxes, but to embrace troops to the people and implement the system of government troops."

Zhao Ji was amused and crying, "The equal tax on the square land is not enough, wouldn't it be even more difficult to suppress the equal tax on the same land?"

"Your Majesty, there is no successful precedent for the equalization of square fields, but there are examples to follow the method of suppressing the equalization of fields. Not only did the previous dynasty have precedents, but there are also successful examples in today's world."

"Oh? Where did it work?"

"The Northern Zhou, Eastern Liao, and Western Liang can all suppress the merger and equalize the fields. How can I not be able to do this in the Song Dynasty?"

ah?

Zhao Ji was stunned. The land system implemented by the Northern Zhou, Eastern Liao and Western Liang was an equal-land system? The land of a country was allocated to Wufu, and ordinary small farmers could not find half a mu of land...

"Your Majesty," He Li said, "The land laws practiced by the Northern Zhou, Eastern Liao and Western Liang all have the same origin. They are owned by the land state, and they are granted land to join the army, and 80% of the country's land is raised. Although it is not a dictatorship, it is also considered a method of equalizing land. For land annexation, it is strictly prohibited, making it almost impossible.

Although there are unfair aspects of this method of equalizing land, it was successfully implemented in the Northern Zhou, Eastern Liao and Western Liang. It has not been heard of causing a change."

Didn't cause a change? Zhao Ji thought to himself: The change is huge! It's just that you, the crazy top scorer, don't know it!

The Zhou Kingdom encountered the rebellion of the Great Yuan Kingdom of the Bohai Sea, while the Xiliang Kingdom was a long-term melee between the Tianli Buddhism, Buddhism and Tianfang Buddhism. As for the Dongliao, there have been many Buddhist turmoils in the past two years!

Although these accidents have different signs, they are ultimately for land competition.

But the knights of the Three Kingdoms were so good at fighting that they suppressed them all...

Moreover, the knights and soldiers of the Zhou Kingdom, Dongliao and Xiliang, and the forces of rebelling and rebelling together did not belong to the same sect, with only the Buddhists who rebelled in Dongliao. However, Empress Dowager Xiao of Dongliao had the strong support of Wu Haogu, and several monks were not opponents at all.

If the Song Dynasty wanted to conduct Juntian, the landlords who strongly opposed him stood in the court! How could Juntian continue to be implemented?

Moreover, the population of the Zhou Kingdom, Dongliao and Xiliang was relatively small. Dongliao and Xiliang were sparsely populated and wide.

The Zhou State, which has the largest population (not counting the affiliated Dongliao), means a million households, seven or eight million households. Moreover, the Zhou State has developed industry and commerce, with less than 100,000 households and nearly 500,000 households in Tianjin alone. The farmers who really need land are more than 6 million. The whole country has more than 90 million mu of arable land, with an average of more than 10 mu of people.

In the Song Dynasty, the population of over 100 million, and the maximum arable land including hidden fields (estimated) is more than 500 million mu. The per capita arable land is almost one-third of that of the Zhou Kingdom... How should the land be equal?

Although Zhao Ji believed that the matter of equalizing the fields was not feasible in the Song Dynasty, he did not immediately reject He Li's memorial. Instead, he said with a gentle voice: "The matter of equalizing the fields is very important. I am outside and it is difficult to make a decision. You can first submit the two governments to the Kaifeng discussion. After I return to Beijing, I will make a conclusion on the results of the two governments to discuss. I will be transferred to another official position and serve as the chief clerk of the Siong Temple. I will first go back to Kaifeng to attend the two governments for consultation. In addition, when the two governments gather to discuss the Jin war, I will also attend it."

Zhao Ji dug a hole for He Li! He asked him to discuss with the two prefectures and sects who are the two prefectures and sects? Everyone is a big landlord!

Go to discuss Juntian with a group of big landlords, what is the difference between trying to get a tiger?

You, the crazy top scholar, are waiting to be bitten to death by the censor! It seems that it won't take too long, so you should go to the Censor Prison to have a soup...
