Chapter 522 Capture the Farmland and Warn Zhu Zhanji

Cochin has been in war for many years, and many fields have been barren. Hunting "Δ Wenwang WwΔW. "Lie Wen. CC

However, the state capital is at least where the chief secretary is located, so the situation has improved a lot.

This morning, the prisoners each got a bowl of clear porridge, which surprised them a bit.

But after finishing the porridge, an interpreter came in to speak.

"His Royal Highness King Han of the Ming Dynasty issued an order that everyone must work in order to eat, and now all come out."

The captives had no problem hearing it, except for fools these days, who would let the captives eat and drink for free!

When they arrived at a wilderness in the outskirts, Fang Xing was already waiting here.

The timid ones worried about being buried in fertile land when they saw cavalry cruising around.

"Send the message."

Fang Xing looked at the open space around him, and felt that God was too unfair to Daming.

"There is a lot of arable land in Jiaozhi!"

Many of the plains here are deserted, and no one thinks about opening a few acres of land.

Huang Fu watched the interpreter begin to pass on the message, and smiled wryly, "Some coedoed men are lazy, and they just plan the land casually. If it wasn't for God's favor, most of them would starve to death."

"Fifty people form a team, if one escapes, the whole team will be killed!"

"There is a reward for reporting, and it is the same crime not to report if you know the truth."

"Those who cannot complete the prescribed work every day will have no food!"

"His Royal Highness Daming Han Wang and Daming Xing Hebo promise you, as long as you work honestly, after three years, you can take over your family and become householders of the Daming Army from now on. You have a bright future..."

"..."

Watching the interpreters shouting at the top of their lungs, Fang Xing said to Huang Fu: "Cozhi men are lazy because there are women working. If they don't work, they will have nothing to eat. Their laziness will naturally heal without medicine."

Huang Fu was taken aback, vaguely feeling that Fang Xing had no good intentions.

"I have a lot of bachelors in Ming Dynasty,

In this way, the memorial will be written later, if the bachelors come here, all the wives will be arranged, the grain tax will be exempted within three years of farming, and houses, cattle, and seeds will be provided. "

Is that all right?

Huang Fu felt something was wrong, but he couldn't find a reason to refute it.

Fang Xing smiled: "As Daming's Uncle Xinghe, Fang is obliged to think about those who cannot find a wife. As for those who have intercourse, does that have anything to do with us?"

Huang Fu's body trembled slightly, and he finally knew why Fang Xing wanted to betray Confucianism.

"I'm just a person whose interests are paramount, but this interest can only be Daming's interest."

Huang Fu is a nice person, and he didn't alienate Fang Xing just because he admitted that he would set up his own family.

"Of course you can't kill too much, but you can't be fraternal enough to treat people of other races as Ming people... Oh! No, sometimes even for the sake of the so-called face of the country, treat those people of other races preferentially."

"no?"

Huang Fu felt that no matter how confused the civil servant was, he would not do such a foolish thing.

Fang Xing said noncommittally: "If it weren't for the preferential treatment, how could His Majesty order the Japanese tribute to be rescheduled?"

Fang Xing saw that the captives had started to collect tools and were ready to go to work, so he sighed: "Look, first warn Lian Zuo, and then set a goal of reuniting with their families in three years, these captives will be honest immediately."

"Blindly being tough will collapse sooner or later, but if you are too gentle, you will also collapse. After all, the human heart is a bottomless pit that cannot be filled!"

"Knife and gun in hand, gentle words in mouth, soft and hard, this is the kingly way, and it is also the long-lasting way."

The cavalry patrolled around, and the captives brandished tools to open up wasteland. The sun shone on this fertile plain, which made people feel full of vitality.

This is the beginning of enlightenment!

You have to have food first, and then you can talk about enlightenment.

Fang Xing saw that the overall situation was settled, so he said: "Master Huang, there are cavalry guards here, and the rest of the cultivation will be handed over to the Chief Secretary. I hope to see the output soon."

Huang Fu nodded, watching Fang Xing with complicated eyes as he headed towards Dongguan City under the guard of the cavalry.

What kind of person is this?

He was born in Confucianism, but in the end he chose to stand on his own.

He is decisive in killing and cutting, but at the same time he is not lacking in strategy.

And he takes the long view!

But such a great talent, why is he not tolerated by Confucianism?

Huang Fu was confused, but Fang Xing suddenly realized.

Back in the city, Zhu Gaoxu had already found out Ma Qi's family property, and at the same time figured out the reason why this guy should be an internal response.

"Father has already issued an order to exempt half of Jiaozhi's contribution, but Ma Qi is obediently obedient, and secretly withholds the overcharged things. Mu Sheng is a little aware of it."

Mu Sheng watched Ruan Shuai's battle against the powerful clan in Jiaozhi, and was also responsible for putting out those sporadic rebellions, so he naturally learned what Ma Qi did from it.

"Why didn't Duke Qian report it?"

Fang Xing was very puzzled. Failure to report what he knew was a serious crime. Would Mu Sheng dare?

Zhu Gaoxu said disdainfully: "Of course he reported it, but Ma Qi was more courageous and directly intercepted and killed the messenger. After seeing the report, Ma Qi panicked, so he wanted to act first."

Ma Qi sent someone to contact Ruan Zenghua first, and then gave him a token.

"That He Jiawei was dragged into the water by Ma Qi, and later opened a way for Ruan Zenghua."

"There was a sergeant who wanted to report to Mu Sheng last night, but unfortunately he was silenced."

Tut tut! Ma Qi actually prepared to rebel from the beginning? What a decisive character indeed!

Fang Xing was a little dizzy looking at the harvest of the house raids: "This Ma Qi's appetite must be too big! There are so many things, and he doesn't recognize his family. Could it be that they are all buried in the coffin after death?"

Zhu Gaoxu shook his head, "I don't know, but this guy has already confessed that he still has a lot of property in his Jinling mansion."

"He knew that Mu Sheng would play the report again sooner or later, and he would die at that time, so he negotiated terms with Ruan Zenghua. He thought that he would burn the mansion down after breaking the city, making people think that Ma Qi was burned to death inside. .Then take your own people out and find a place to gather people to rebel."

"Rebellion? Just his few hundred people?" Fang Xing felt a little strange.

Zhu Gaoxu yawned and said: "At that time, Mu Sheng will definitely be dealt with. You and I will have to go back to Jinling sooner or later. He, Ma Qi, can easily recruit soldiers with the money. Then he will unite with a few families, ah... I'll go to sleep a little while."

Ma Qi doesn't understand military affairs, but he has a ruthless heart, and he also knows how to use benefits to win people over.

After returning home, Fang Xing wrote a letter to Zhu Zhanji, in which he analyzed Ma Qi's psychological activities, and finally concluded that: After the eunuch was stabbed, his mind was distorted, greedy, and crazy about power and wealth.

Does Zhu Zhanji know this kind of psychology?

Fang Xing put the brush on the pen stand. He remembered that Zhu Di started using eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty, but it seems that Zhu Zhanji started to favor eunuchs.

In the end, his son followed suit and favored Wang Zhen. After the Battle of Tumubao, he almost ruined the Ming Dynasty.

Yu Jia...

Fang Xing remembered that clever eunuch, this Yu Jia always smiled when facing him, and it was said that Fang Jielun was also kind when he brought food to the palace.

Watch what you say?

Or play with the wind!

Fang Xing tore up the letter and started writing again.

——Eunuchs are available, but they cannot be involved in military affairs, otherwise they will repeat the mistakes of the previous Tang Dynasty!

——From the former Han Dynasty to the former Tang Dynasty, every time in the middle and late stages of the dynasty, there will always be eunuchs with great power!

——The civil servants of the former Song Dynasty controlled the government, so it was the most low-key eunuch in the past dynasties!

...

In the late Tang Dynasty, those eunuchs could even abolish the emperor, but the bullies couldn't.

Fang Xing thought about it, and continued to analyze the system of the former Song Dynasty.

——Although the eunuchs in the former Song Dynasty were not visible, this was the product of the emperor at the expense of weakening his own rights, and it cannot be compared.

The way of balance! Zhanji, don't try to use eunuchs to balance the government, that would make things worse, drinking poison to quench thirst!

Eunuchs are untrustworthy, unreliable, unreliable!

Reliable eunuchs are not capable of competing with courtiers!

After sealing the letter, Fang Xing put it together with the family letter and asked someone to send it through the military channel.

Sitting in front of the window, Fang Xing looked at the blooming flowers and trees outside, and thought of Zhu Di.

Zhu Di reused eunuchs, but the government rarely allowed them to get involved.

But what about Huang Yan?

And Zheng He and others...

Does Zhu Di also need to use eunuchs to balance some forces?
