Linlang didn't know that she had managed so many scholars. After all, she left many things to the people below to handle. As long as she recruited the people she wanted, she couldn't personally interview everyone one by one. .
However, she also knew that some scholars should have come recently. After all, there were some positions where she had to deal with her. The knowledge reserves of those who passed the recruitment were obviously much better than those before. However, Linlang did not ask these people if they had any fame before. After all, she doesn't care about her body, as long as she can do good things.
As for the people she recruited, she knew that she would not get special preferential treatment. Anyway, they would still be given the benefits she wrote when recruiting, so she didn't go out of her way to tell her that she was a candidate or something like that.
Most of the people who will come anyway have already considered that Linlang will not give any extra preferential treatment, so those who come will not participate in Linlang's recruitment if they have not considered this, so they have told Linlang. They will not receive special treatment, and they are mentally prepared.
The reason why Linlang doesn't give special treatment to a scholar is because she wants people to help her with things. She prefers people who come from her own school and have similar values to her, rather than old-style literati who have many ideas in their heads. It has been fixed. If she treats them preferentially and attracts a bunch of such people, they will probably criticize her in doing things in the future. She is not troublesome enough, so naturally she will not give special preferential treatment.
A lot of time passed like this, and the fighting in the world became more and more intense, but no one came to fight Linlong for a while.
It's not that those people are kind, but because Linlang is very popular with the people, I think it's difficult to fight someone who is very popular with the people, so I don't want to fight. For the time being, I will only fight those who are unpopular with the people and want to resist the people under their rule. Such unpopular people can be easily beaten as long as they win the common people's internal and external cooperation.
In the end, there was a war again on Linlang's side. It was really because the surrounding landowners who had taken refuge with her wanted to harvest the grain that belonged to their fields but were not under her control, and then the other landowners refused to harvest it, causing the war.
It’s no wonder that people are angry. This year, more and more medium-sized landowners have taken refuge in Linlang. The reason why a large number of medium-sized landowners have taken refuge in Linlang is because they will pay less taxes when they come to Linlang. Large landowners who farm too much land cannot reduce the tax rate even if they divide the land among their family members. They have to pay the top tax, which may be more than what others pay under the rule. They generally won't come - the tax is all handed over to Linlang. , but the food was produced under their rule, and these landowners wanted to harvest it and take it away. How could these people endure it?
It would be fine if there were only a few scattered people, but over the course of a year, a large number of medium-sized landowners had defected to Linlang. Many of them had no land at all under Linlang's rule, and even their fields were far away from Linlang's Three Prefectures and they had defected to Linlang. Then he handed the harvested grain to Linlang. How could those around him endure it?
In particular, some people who thought they were doing a good job in governing the city did not massacre or confiscate the city. At most, they just looted the city for a few days when the army entered. In this troubled time, this was not bad, but in the end, they treated the rich and powerful people under the rule. Such a nice person, but the other party not only didn't appreciate it, but also went to Linlang's side, paying her taxes and money, but harvesting the crops under their rule. This was really unbearable and made them mad.
So some people just couldn't bear it. After one landowner's crops matured, they sent people to harvest them before that landowner harvested the crops.
The landowner was really angry now, because Linlang had promised before that he would seek justice for anyone whose crops were taken away for no reason, so the man sued Linlang, and Linlang actually lit up The army, oh no, the patrol, went off to demand justice.
Of course, Linlang didn't want to start a war lightly, so he was very nice and angry at the beginning and asked the other party to return the landowner's food.
But the people on the opposite side were not afraid of Linlang at all. The reason why that person dared to harvest the crops planted by the landlords under Linlang's rule was because they compared their own power with Linlang's and felt that they could defeat Linlang, so they dared to do so. Harvesting the crops of the landlords under Linlang's rule.
This person has the power of the Four Prefectures, and he feels that the territory is larger than Linlang's three prefectures, and his army is larger than Linlang's. In addition, the city is no worse than Linlang's. He feels that Linlang can't do anything to them, so he harvests them.
Now that it has been harvested, if Linlang comes to ask for it now, he will definitely not give it to her. After all, if she gives it to her now, why did she harvest it in the first place? Help others collect food?
Needless to say, Linlang must have killed them all.
Linlang didn't attack by force. After all, a lot of people would die if he attacked the city by force. Linlang didn't get the gunpowder to blow up the city wall - mainly because Linlang didn't want to increase the difficulty of conquering the world - so Linlang only surrounded the opponent's city, and then what? , if there are other three prefectures coming to rescue, she will surround them and call for help.
Of course, no one will come to save him.
So after being surrounded for a long time, these people couldn't hold it anymore and surrendered.
Because these people never thought that Linlang could surround them for several months! They originally thought that Lin Lang had come a long way and could only surround her for a few days at most. Who knew how many months they could surround her? !
——They didn’t know that, firstly, Linlang had prepared military rations, and each person brought enough to last at least a week; secondly, the reserve forces under Linlang’s rule quickly formed a rations team to deliver a steady stream of rations.
Those who deliver food in other places may be civilians, but those who deliver food here in Linlang are said to be reserve soldiers, but they are all trained in martial arts. If left with others, they are the best soldiers. Others dare not fight at all, so these people When transporting grain, no one dares to offend.
Since the grain road is fine, Linlang can surround these people for as long as he wants, right?
In fact, while she was surrounding here, she was also gathering points to call for reinforcements. After eliminating the people sent by the other three prefectures to rescue, she asked the reserve personnel to take over the other three prefectures.
After all, the other three prefectures are not the base camp of these people and are easy to fight. So now, this prefecture has become an isolated city. All other places have fallen under Linlang's control. Only this isolated city is left to hold on here. It is strange that it can survive.
In fact, Linlang is still surrounding this isolated city on the surface. In fact, he has already begun to govern these four mansions. After all, these four mansions, although the last mansion has not been destroyed, are just a city that has not been destroyed. The villages below have returned to Linlang long ago. .
It has been under treatment for several months, and it is strange that it has not been under treatment.
Now that the enemy surrendered, Linlang naturally dealt with it according to the old rules before. However, since the enemy leader was not dead, Linlang refused and asked him to leave with his soldiers.
Those soldiers, most of whom were the leader's confidants, were difficult to surrender, and Linlang didn't want to kill him, so he just let them leave.
As for the others, I believe that after staying under her rule for a long time, they will not want to leave. Even if the enemy leader sends people to encourage them, these people have lived a good life, but they probably cannot be encouraged.
