I have to say that Zhang Tingyu’s idea was simple and crude and no one had any objections.
"I have occupied these black soil areas by myself. I am worried that I will not be able to sleep at night. I am afraid in my dreams that the soldiers will rush into the camp and hang me up. I angrily scold me for being stupid!" Qi Xingyun said while looking at the black soil area with a smile. .
This is the most fertile place in the entire Liaodong County, and it is also the biggest gain from the attack on Fangyang City.
"How could that be possible?" Luo Fengtang said in surprise: "Before the emperor, the soldiers of the Daqi army were treated as lowly. Now the soldiers of the Daqi army are in demand wherever they go. They are grateful to the emperor, and the land they cultivate is The emperor divides it, but the emperor worries too much."
Qi Xingyun shook his head and said: "Luo Fengtang, you must always remember this sentence, people's hearts cannot stand the test."
Luo Fengtang nodded.
After Qi Xingyun finished speaking, he stopped talking and continued to stare at the sunset, his eyes bright and clear as if he was thinking about something.
Qi Xingyun suddenly made up his mind and said: "This time the land equalization policy in the black soil area still gives priority to the soldiers of the Qi army. One acre of black soil field will be treated as two acres of high-quality field, and it will be divided according to this regulation."
"Pass this decree on and let the soldiers know about it."
Luo Fengtang said with a look of embarrassment: "The Daqing incident can be postponed for two days. I think it is better for the emperor to discuss it with the courtiers. Originally, it is a good thing to recover Fang Yangcheng. The emperor should think carefully."
"I've been thinking carefully all afternoon, aren't I careful enough?" Qi Xingyun looked at Luo Fengtang and asked doubtfully.
He never thought that even Luo Fengtang would oppose his decision.
He just wanted to share the fattest part of the cake that the Daqi soldiers fought so hard to knock down, and give it to the soldiers who died in service. Is there anything wrong with this?
As the military director, Luo Fengtang actually followed the same tone as the courtiers, asking him to think carefully. He had been thinking about it for so long, so of course he had made up his mind.
"I think it was Elder Zhang Ge's idea that was good." Luo Fengtang said: "The soldiers of Da Qi don't want that much."
The soldiers of Da Qi, including the generals, were actually fooled by Da Qi's culture of emphasizing civility over military affairs.
The emperor's constant presence of divine grace is so unusual that they are not used to it.
The courtiers of Da Qi were not used to it either.
Qi Xingyun shook his head and said, "I'll think about it again. By the way, Qin Hanqing wants to negotiate with Da Qi. You go and bring Fei Xingwei back to me."
Qi Xingyun was ready to cut Fei Xingwei into pieces with a thousand knives.
Luo Fengtang took the order and left the city wall of Fangyang West City. The mottled city wall was full of large craters made by the shells of Daqi Shenwei cannon. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was devastated.
"Wang Yun, did I do something wrong?" Qi Xingyun asked doubtfully.
Wang Yun narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "I thought it would be better to invest in the internal funds."
Qi Xingyun pointed to the other soldiers who were cleaning up Fangyang's ruins in the black soil area and said: "I just did some work of waving flags to cheer. I didn't do any work. Why did I occupy this most fertile place? Just because Am I the emperor?"
"That's not fair."
Don’t worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality.
This sentence is very correct. People's hearts cannot stand the test. Qi Xingyun does not want to test the loyalty of Qi's soldiers.
After finally having a capable warrior, wouldn't it make the Han Kingdom laugh out loud if he failed to do so?
Qi Xingyun didn't want to do this kind of thing that would hurt his relatives and make his enemies happy.
Although he knew that the word emperor itself represented unfairness.
In Wang Yun's view, the emperor's pursuit of fairness was asking for trouble.
Originally, the black soil area belonged to the emperor, and everyone else would fill in the rest, and no one would have any objections. However, the emperor's insistence on giving it to the soldiers will naturally make the scholar-bureaucrats dissatisfied.
"Emperor, I think Mr. Zhang Ge is right. It is better to use internal funds in this black soil area. If it is distributed to the scholar-bureaucrats, the soldiers will have opinions. If it is distributed to the soldiers, the scholar-officials will have opinions."
"The soldiers of Da Qi fought bloody battles, and there is nothing to say about their bravery. However, the logistics of Da Qi and the turnover of grain and grass supplies also have a role in Da Qi's common people and scholar-bureaucrats. As the old saying goes, before the troops and horses are moved, food and grass go first. So. I also agree with Mr. Zhang Ge’s idea.”
Qi Xingyun looked at Wang Yun, shook his head and said: "You will naturally be happy when the internal funds are returned. Now you are in charge of the internal funds. Who would think it's too much money?"
"Those all belong to the emperor." Wang Yun said immediately.
The internal money stalls are getting bigger and bigger now, and the money is getting more and more. The more Wang Yun dares not to put his hands on it, he will lose his head.
"General Luo is a man of few words. Although he didn't say anything, the Heroes' Tomb of Wenwen Township now has the richest field in the black soil area, so the soldiers will inevitably slack off. This may be what General Luo is worried about. "Wang Yun continued to persuade.
Qi Xingyun looked at the boastful Wang Yun and realized that this guy was very interested in anything involving internal funds.
Confusing right and wrong, talking nonsense without blushing.
The addresses of the restaurants in Fangyang City have been selected, and the foundations have not yet been built. The merchants in Daqi have already tried to follow Wang Yun's path and want to have their own place in the restaurant.
"You don't know how to run an army, so don't talk nonsense." Qi Xingyun shook his head and said, "Where is Zuo Mingde? Let him come over. I will see him and let him go to Goryeo."
"What about the black soil area?" Wang Yun asked, watching the emperor look unhappy and run away without a trace.
Zuo Mingde came to the west end of Fangyang City anxiously and saw the emperor in a daze facing the sunset.
"After all these years, the emperor's demeanor is still the same as before. He is brave and handsome. I, Zuo Mingde, pay homage to your majesty. Long live your majesty. Long live your majesty."
Zuo Mingde first made a bowing ceremony.
Qi Xingyun asked Zuo Mingde to get up and talk.
"I originally didn't plan to let you continue to be the admiral in Goryeo, but I was thinking of getting you to do some errands like guard duty. I'm trying to protect you, do you understand?" Qi Xingyun looked at Zuo Mingde who was worried. expression, and said with a smile.
The eunuchs who went out to serve as deputy general managers of military affairs in Da Qi did not end well.
Upon hearing this, Zuo Mingde hurriedly said: "I have received divine grace, so I naturally know that the emperor is protecting me."
"But there is no suitable person to go to Daqi at the moment. It is better for you to be the admiral and take good care of Korea." Qi Xingyun directly told Zuo Mingde his arrangement.
On the Goryeo side, Zuo Mingde could only continue.
And this means that Zuo Mingde has become more dangerous. When Zuo Mingde returns from serving as admiral, will Zuo Mingde be able to withstand the criticism from Da Qi's courtiers?
Zuo Mingde bowed his head and said: "I am willing to do my best for the emperor."
"Do you know the risks involved?" Qi Xingyun looked at Zuo Mingde and seemed to have already planned to go to Goryeo to be an admiral. He answered quickly.
Zuo Mingde said with a calm face: "The life of the Korean people is very hard. The nobles are in power, and the people starve to death on the streets, but no one restrains them. The bones of Zhumen are frozen to death on the roads that smell of wine and meat. I feel that I am an admiral in Korea. , it’s a very interesting thing.”
Qi Xingyun nodded repeatedly, Zuo Mingde finally understood.
