In the Spring and Autumn and Warring States without women

When Qin Bi heard this, he already understood Xia Yu's meaning, and said: "No."

The son Qi who has been promoted to the position of secretary of agriculture and chief historian Qi came out to report and said: "Qi reported to the country, last year the government issued a decree to redesignate the fief directly under the monarch, change the city into a county, set up county magistrates, county magistrates, and county judges. Now the ranks of the counties have been determined. This year, the national government decrees to promote rice and promote the system of agricultural nobility. Large rice farmers can get nobility. Other places are fine, but in Guzhu County and Lingzhi County, the people are quite different. from.

Hearing this, Situ Ye laughed, looked at Gu Zhucun and said with a teasing smile: "Oh, Taifu's hometown, your folks don't give you face."

Gu Zhu Cun'a was a bit embarrassed, he touched his nose and said nothing, Gu Zhu Cun'a's family ancestors were born in Gu Zhu Cun'a, but they have lived in Jidu for several generations, Situ Ye teased Gu Zhu Cun'a, in fact, there was something It's biased.

If you want to say that the Lone Bamboo and the Lingzhi are all branches of the Shanrong, if you go up, the Shanrong attacked the Yan State led by Tu Heren, surrounded the capital of the Yan State, and almost destroyed the Yan State. He led an army to save the situation. Duke Huan of Qi helped the country of Yan retreat from the enemy, and he wiped out Guzhu and Lingzhi, the tribes of Shanrong who were closer to him. Since then, these two places have become the territory of the country of Yan.

But even though it was merged into the Yan Kingdom, after all, there are still some Shanrong survivors in these two places. The customs and customs are very different from the ritual and music civilization of the Central Plains princes. Although they were afraid of being beaten and had no courage to rebel, but because of the bitter cold The State of Yan has never put much thought into its management, so it is inevitable that the people in these two places have some different thoughts and do not follow some of the laws and regulations of the State of Yan. , that’s all, but it’s not going to work now, because Xia Yu is now in charge of the government.

The two counties of Guzhu and Lingzhi are on both sides of the Luan River, and the land is fertile. As long as the farming method and farming equipment are improved, and the method of slash-and-burn farming is no longer used, these two places can be turned into temporary granaries for the country of Yan.

It is temporarily because Xia Yu has a bigger plan in mind, which is to annex the entire Northeast. You must know that as the granary of future generations, the Northeast is mostly plains, with fertile black soil and abundant water sources at the source of the Three Rivers. An area suitable for growing rice, and as we all know, the yield of rice per mu is much higher than that of wheat.

Of course, this process is not easy, not to mention the Donghu and Shanrong who are now entrenched here, even the dense virgin forests and mountains are enough for people in this era of extremely low productivity to drink a pot, but these are in hand with a huge database. In the eyes of Xia Yu, who can be described as a perverted existence in the times, it is not a problem.

In the first year after the Yan State moved to the country, after sorting out the state affairs and settling the people, Xia Yu began to divide and reform the fiefdoms directly under the monarch in the second year. In the school palace, Qi Yu was appointed as the order of the school palace, and all kinds of craftsmen were trained, including those who practiced farming and mulberry, weaving, salt making, building, casting soldiers, etc., and then promoted it by the newly appointed county magistrate.

These county magistrates were appointed at the beginning, so they were naturally eager to show off, and what Xia Yu taught could really benefit the common people, so they naturally spread quickly.

When Xia Yu first entered the country of Yan, he sent his subordinates to sneak into various countries to do business. Many of these people gradually became successful in various countries. The family members are all in Xia Yu's hands, and they dare not disobey. Xia Yu ordered these people to promote Yan's special products to other countries, such as the newly developed Yan brocade and sea salt.

All these things made the treasury gradually fill up rapidly.

At the same time, Furen personally presided over the training of the national government to strengthen the army, reform the military system, promote cavalry and infantry, and reduce the number of chariots.

Xia Yu also promulgated a decree to force the people to separate their families and encourage them to have children. Those who have more children will be rewarded, and those who refuse to separate their families and have no children will be punished heavily to increase the population.

All these things, if it weren't for the fact that there were almost no great nobles in the Yan Kingdom at this time, and the extinction of the monarchs, it would have been almost impossible.

Without the constraints of the emperor, the low-level scholars and officials of the national government do not have the attachment of the emperor, and can only "work" for the emperor, and the implementation of government orders is extremely smooth.

In the third year, Furen personally led the army to wipe out the remnants of Chidi and Beidi who invaded the northern part of Yan State, and plundered countless warhorse populations.

The government of the country showed its thunderbolt methods, and the effect was effective. The country of Yan made rapid progress, and in just three years, it stabilized the turbulent hearts of the people after the relocation, and the national strength recovered quickly.

In the fourth year, which is now, both Furen and Xia Yu have made up their minds to implement the military and agricultural nobility system, completely changing the reward mechanism of the entire Yan Kingdom, so that the common people can get titles and land titles.

Outside, he wanted to attack Tu He, who had been feared by him for a long time. He took this piece of land to reward the sergeants, practiced the system of military merit, and let the common people of Yan Kingdom witness a fact with their own eyes - as long as they win the battle, the common people will also be defeated. You can seal the land and win the title.

In addition, Xia Yu further promoted rice seeds and implemented the agricultural nobility system. The people's grain payment exceeded the government's standard, and the title was awarded according to the amount.

Such a big event affects the whole body at one stroke, and it is related to whether Yan State can become strong, annex the Northeast, and regain lost land. How can Xia Yu tolerate the two small places of Guzhu and Lingzhi? plan

So Xia Yu instructed the bamboo slips memorial in his hand again and again, while saying: "Wu Bao."

Wu Bao came out and said, "Here!"

Xia Yu said: "How did you perform with the city-breaking cone that the Palace of Workers and Peasants gave you for trial?"

Wu Bao said bluntly: "It's not going well. If you want to practice breaking the city, you must have the city to be broken."

Yan State lost more than half of its land, and there are not a few decent cities left in total. Wu Bao's implication is that there is no suitable place to practice.

Xia Yu said: "Well, I heard that there is an abandoned city near Guzhu County. You should go there and practice your skills."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was in a cold sweat. This clearly meant to use military power to frighten the Lone Bamboo people, and to support the newly appointed county magistrate.

Speaking of this, Xia Yu also finished dealing with the mountain of bamboo slips on the table, and then rubbed her sore wrist while thinking: I really want to get out paper this kind of thing quickly, thinking this way, I turned my head to face the little girl. He Ze, who was busy in the kitchen, said, "Let's set the meal."

Convincing people, beating drums, and rushing the whole army, with flags flying, more than 1 people lined up according to their ranks, it is a sea of ​​people, it is very spectacular, the army is full of killing spirit, if the timid people stand here, their legs will be weak.

Convincing people is naturally not a timid person, and this kind of soldier who has been leading troops all year round is also used to this kind of oath scene.

After beating the drums, he looked at the soldiers of Yan State below, and said convincingly: "I am worried about the whole army today, and I think you all know it well. Recently, the government issued a decree on military merit. There are many rumors in the army. In the final analysis, everyone does not believe that the government is really Those who will give the title to the common people."

Speaking of this, Furen paused, looked at everyone, not just the officers, then he pulled out the sword at his waist, raised his hand to cut off his crown and cut off his hair, swore with the hair bun in his palm, and said: "Today, Ji Furen I swear by the dignity of the king, if after the defeat of the enemy this time, if our army does not follow the law to reward and confer titles and seals, I, who is surnamed Ji, will definitely die under the Yidi rebellion army, and there will be no place to die!"

People in this era pay attention to the inability to damage the body, hair and skin, not to mention that in this time and space, hair buns are also an important symbol of status. People with high titles are particular about what kind of crown they wear, and it also represents the difference between the inside and the outside. After making the poisonous oath, the soldiers were shocked and uproarious, while Sun You, who had been by the side, said excitedly: "My lord, you are the king of a country! How can you hurt yourself like this!"

Furen said indifferently: "So what if I am a king? Is there a king of the people in the world? I promised to confer titles on military merits, but the people don't believe it. This proves that my morals are not enough to make people believe me. It was my fault that the sergeant did not believe my promise of reward."

Furen has been very humble since he took over as the king, and he is not called lonely, but he is the king after all, and the king of a country swears oaths, or poisonous oaths, and his self-modesty is due to his lack of virtue, which makes his subordinates untrustworthy. The gathering place is an open ground, and the high platform where Furen is located is at the top of the wind, and the sound moves with the wind. All the soldiers heard Furen's words. Many soldiers, including the officers, were very moved, and they all marched and half-kneeled and said: "Dare to die!"

Many soldiers also said in unison: "We trust the king!"

There was a lot of clamor one after another, but fortunately, everyone expressed their loyalty and trust.

Qi Xun glanced at the soldiers in the audience, and thought: Although the methods are different, the monarch really deserves to be a general who has fought to a tie with his lord, and this method of encouraging people's hearts also has its own way.

After the instruction of the whole army was over, everyone went back to the camp to perform their duties, obey the people and account, but immediately heard a report from a guard: "Report! General Qi Lu has brought food and grass."

Convincing people to listen to the return, his expression remained unchanged, and he looked down at the strategy of attacking Tu Heren on the map that had been deduced halfway, and said, "Let him in."
