Chapter 628 The appeal of the Han Dynasty is not so strong

Whether it is Dong Zhuo or Niu Fu, it is absolutely impossible to return it to the people after snatching the money and food. They can only support the soldiers in their hands.

Da Ya said "five million" money, but in fact it was not that much. It was just that Da Ya spent on the exact amount of money to make everyone shut up in public. I am afraid no one knows how much it was except Da Ya.

The soldiers can't control so many soldiers. If they are plundered and confiscated by the general, they can't get a penny. But if they are sold to Da Ya, they can get a lot of colorful money. It's much easier to hide paper money than to hide heavy gold and copper. Of course, Niu Fu and Li Jue are not fools. They wouldn't think that even the guys who have to take off their clothes will really be so willing to suffer losses.

It was snowing in the sky, which was not a good day for hunting, but it still couldn't stop the enthusiasm of a group of generals. A group of children wrapped like rice dumplings were even more fun.

Niu Fu got the desired result, but it was not important. What was important was that he wanted to use the money and grains in Da Ya's hand to stabilize the upcoming famine in Hanoi County. Before Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, he had been supervising the money and grains in the army. He knew very well what the consequences would be if the people in Hanoi were gone. When others were quite interested in hunting, he kept pestering Da Ya and making Dong Chong's face droop and displeasure.

But no matter what, Daya didn't want a great famine to happen in Hanoi and agreed to provide porridge and relief to the people without food in various counties in Hanoi. Correspondingly, Niu Fu and Li Jue must admit the land deeds and land in Da Ya's hands, but this is an extremely huge number.

Whether he wanted to or not, Niu Fu finally agreed. Of course, Da Ya also took a step back, and the tax on 30 taxes was still paid as usual, but the tenants under the name of "Dong" only paid land tax.

After the two sides reached a compromise, although Niu Fu failed to get more, he also gained some results. Before the hunting was over, he ran back to Taicang to check the amount of food that needed to be transported. It was not until Niu Fu left that Dong Chong was a little unhappy to leave and mutter.

"Sister Da Ya, the freight fee given by the Grand Master is too small. We will lose 300,000 stones of grain!"

Just when Dong Chong was unhappy, Xiao Dong Bai led Dong Ning and ran over. There was a lot of snow on the two of them. After Da Ya repeatedly patted the snow on her son and daughter-in-law, she looked at Dong Chong.

"The left and right hands are just exchanged, and it takes less than 200,000 stones of grain to transport one million stones from Hedong County."

Dong Chong was stunned, then suddenly patted his head and grinned.

"The Grand Master was jealous of us and we got a lot of benefits. We wanted to suffer losses, but we forgot that we didn't need to transport grain from Luoyang at all!"

Da Ya just smiled and sighed inexplicably.

"If the family has lost money, the people can survive, but if they have no food, many people will starve to death. Let's leave the food that our uncle robs in Luoyang, and stay in Hanoi to save many people."

Dong Chong frowned and said, "Sister Da Ya, do we really want to help Niu Fu and others?"

Da Ya thought for a while and said, "If we don't interfere, where will the people escape after a famine in Hanoi County?"

"The first choice is Jizhou, followed by Yanzhou, Luoyang, and finally Shangdang County and Hedong County."

"Escape into Jizhou and Yanzhou will make the Jizhou Governor Han Fu and Yanzhou Governor Liu Dai increase the number of people. Because of the brutality of his uncle and Niu Fu in Hanoi County, the people who escaped will become more panicked, and will put us together in a hostile and hatred side, which will be unfavorable for us to stabilize Hedong County and fight for Hebei in the future."

"If you escape into Luoyang, although it seems that many people in Luoyang have increased, and you can reclaim more land and pay more taxes, this is only temporary. Once the princes of the Central Plains fight, countless refugees will inevitably be generated. The refugees will instinctively flee to more stable and wealthy places."

After checking whether his son's hands and feet were soaked in snow, Da Ya let go of his unhappy son again. He couldn't help laughing as he watched his son hide in Dong Chong's arms for protection.

"hehe……"

"We have been in Luoyang for a short time. The people of various counties and countries are still very hostile to us. But as time goes by, as we give the people lower taxes and more security, once the world is in chaos, there will definitely be many people coming into Luoyang for survival, with 100,000,000,000... or even more than one million people coming in. Therefore, Luoyang cannot add too many people now, and let more people go to Liangbing, but are the people of Henei County willing to go to Bingzhou?"

Dong Chong nodded silently. Whether it was Dong Zhuo or Dong Hu or his brothers, they were all considered as Liangzhou Army. Dong Zhuo condoned tens of thousands of soldiers to loot in Henoi County. The people of Hanoi were so angry that they were so angry that they had to flee to Bingzhou on a large scale. Even Luoyang would not have many people willing to escape, and most of them would have escaped into Jizhou. After understanding these, Dong Chong understood Da Ya's intention...

"My husband wrote that the people of Hanoi County are afraid and distrustful of the Liangzhou Army. We need to improve the people's attitude towards us and make them recognize us as much as possible."

"If the Hanoi people want to recognize us, our approach must be somewhat different from that of our uncle. If our uncle plunders the people, we must treat the people kindly."

Da Ya took Xiao Dong Bai's gift to her barbecue. Da Ya praised her with a few words of praise. When her son Dong Ning saw that his wife was favored by her mother, he also gave her black barbecue. He also received great praise. Dong Chong, who was sitting opposite the stove, smiled bitterly. I don't know whether it was his nephew who was smiling bitterly, or his brother and sister Da Ya's plan.

There is no harm without comparison. Although the first impression of people when interacting with each other is the most important, Dong Zhuo's indulgence has affected the views of the Hanoi people towards everyone in Liangzhou. No matter how hard Dong Buyi works, it is probably difficult to change the disgust of the Hanoi people. However, without food, people will die. No matter how disgusted or disliked the people, it is impossible to fight against their stomachs.

At this stage, it is particularly difficult to change the image, especially in places where you cannot fully control it. However, when all the princes fight against all the families and wealthy families in the territory, when wars are frequent, causing all the princes to increase taxes significantly, when everyone is no different from Dong Zhuo, the people who originally dislike Dong Hu will completely change their concepts and the people's hearts will be completely turned around.

When people later read "Three Kingdoms", they would instinctively believe that the "Han Dynasty" had unimaginable appeal, and this was right or wrong. The appeal of the "Han Dynasty" was mainly reflected in the countless "fixes" families of all sizes that had been supported by the Han Dynasty for four hundred years.

Almost every county in the Han Dynasty had a family of feudal marquis. These families not only occupied a large amount of land and enjoyed the high tenant rents and support of many tenants, but also enjoyed the fiefs of the people in the place. They themselves had countless wealth. Even if they were not greedy for a penny, they would have no worries about food and clothing. This treatment was based on the fief system of the Han Dynasty and the unconfused world. Naturally, they did not want to change everything that existed.

Whether it is Yuan Shao, Liu Yan, Liu Biao, Tao Qian, Gongsun Zan, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Quan, they were not determined to change all this, and naturally they had to keep silent about the "Han Dynasty" to gain the support of countless families.

Could it be that the "Han Family" mentioned by the wealthy families really have supreme appeal? Will the lower-level people still wholeheartedly support the Han Dynasty on the basis of bearing land tax, capita tax, additional taxes, high tenancy rents, and supporting the princes' fiefs?

not necessarily.

At least Dong Hu would not naively think that the lower-class people do not want to live a better life. The reason why the "Han Festival" in "Three Kingdoms" is so strong is because the lower-class people have no choice.

The world is as dark as crows. Cao Cao gave Qingzhou army the conditions for military farming to divide the money on the "Fifth Five-Year Plan" and military soldiers had to pay 50% of their income to farm. What kind of height will the rent of ordinary people reach? Shu Han was busy every year and the troops were arduous and labored to go on expeditions. Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan often used 100,000, 200,000... Where did hundreds of thousands of troops come from? Under the war, the people died in large numbers, but the remaining people had to bear hundreds of thousands of military supplies. What kind of life did the lower-level people do?

In the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, in addition to using hundreds of thousands of troops at the beginning of its founding, several wars of hundreds of thousands of people were used in the next few hundred years. The capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty would not exceed 20,000 troops. Even so, everyone complained, and the emperor had to live by selling official positions. After the chaos in the world, the princes of all walks of life were only one or two governors and prefectures, and every time they used hundreds of thousands of troops to fight, it would be strange if the lower-level people could live a better life!

People under such high pressure are really unwilling to live a life of low-priced free people? Do you really don’t want to change the dynasty?

Anyway, Dong Hu doesn’t believe it, and the people are neither stupid nor stupid. How can you not want to live a life of having enough food and clothing, a warm wife and children?

However, Dong Hu has not yet fought against Dong Zhuo. He is still a general of Dong Zhuo. The princes of various fields have not yet fought each other, just because he doesn't want to take this lead and doesn't want to become the chief evil in the world.

The main evil must be Dong Zhuo. If Dong Zhuo is not dead, all the princes will fight against Dong Zhuo in one rope. All the princes will be a great loyal minister who clears the king. The people in the world will tend to be various princes under the influence of countless families' discourse power, and will instinctively hate any general in Liangzhou, including Dong Hu and his troops.

Dong Hu knew very well that no matter what he did, he was a thug in the eyes of 99% of the people. Only after waiting for Dong Zhuo's death, all the princes started a melee and hegemony mode. Only after all the princes slaughtered the rich families in the territory and suffered the pain of war, would he choose a prince who seemed pretty good under the pressure of his belly and life. At that time, it was the time when Dong Buyi truly won the hearts of the people.

But pies will not fall out of thin air. If you do not take some measures and actions to protect the lower-level people in advance, why should the lower-level people support him?
