: No court

"The Art of War. Changes": "If there is something to attack the city, if there is something to fight for the land, if there is something to fight for, if there is something to accept the king's orders.

After expressing his determination to conquer Wei with the generals, Chen Kefu talked with Li Benlei and other generals, which ended the chaotic night.

The morning bell in the city has already ringed, and a new day has arrived. When the generals dispersed, Chen Kefu asked Mao Xi and other generals to stay and discuss it separately.

For Chen Kefu, Su Wei stayed in Liaodong but was just a deaf ear, purely a decoration. In Liaodong for so long, Su Wei was very aware of it. Without Chen Kefu's embarrassment, he himself did not leave the mansion all day, drinking tea every day and watching the singing and dancing of Goguryeo female slaves.

But in a few days, Yang Guang's son, the prince of Liao, and thousands of officials, would arrive in Liaodong. These people did not dare to do anything, and they needed to deal with it carefully. Especially knowing that this Liao king was not an honest master in the past, and his arrival made Chen Kefu worried.

"Mao Bo, how has the local baojia system been implemented in Liaodong?" Chen Kefu looked at Mao Xi, who is now in charge of Liaodong's internal affairs. Although Yang Guang was in the county system, the central government sent officials. However, water and earth flooded and soldiers were in charge, Chen Kefu had expected this. The lords and nobles of the Liao people were all captured by Chen Kefu, and even the family forces had been disbanded and moved everywhere.

Chen Kefu sent people to implement the Baojia system in Liaodong in order to gain actual control of the local government. Even if the imperial court has sent a complete set of officials, it is difficult to gain real power in the local government. The lower class is occupied by Chen Kefu's men. After the imperial court officials took office, they will find that they can do nothing except those names and government offices.

In the past, local governments mostly relied on local aristocratic landlords and gentry forces, or clan forces to carry out local management. But now, all the conditions are gone. When they came, they just found that their rights had long been undermined. Especially in Liaodong, behind these people was Chen Kefu.

"Don't worry, we sent more than 30,000 civilians and retired disabled veterans to serve as Jia Zheng, Bao Zheng, and Li Zheng in various places. We have basically captured the entire Liaodong area. Those imperial officials who have just sent will not be able to sort out the affairs of the yamen without a few months. When they want to truly master the place, they don't have a year or two, so don't think about it." Mao Xi said with a smile.

Chen Kefu nodded with satisfaction. He wanted to use the Baojia system to replace the original local forces and weave a big net in Liaodong that obeyed him.

"How is the distribution of fields? Have the Liao people allocated fields?" Although Goguryeo militarily pacified Goguryeo, Goguryeo is a country that has been around for hundreds of years. It is not realistic to completely assimilate them, so they can only come slowly. But at least, they must be honest and not let them cause any problems in Chen Kefu's backyard.

Another civil servant from Chenjiazhuang said, "Don't worry, your highness, we have complete documents and documents from the Goguryeo people. The fields in various places have been measured, and all the Goguryeo people have also been re-divided. The fields divided by the Goguryeo people are half of the people immigrated to the Sui people in Liaodong, and those who have no land now temporarily rent our fields and will only belong to them five years later. Most of the Goguryeo slaves were divided into workshops and mines, but a small part was divided into our military farms in various places to farm. Everything is normal, and spring will begin in a while. At that time, we will rent all the immigrants and Liao people's farm tools, seeds, and oxen to ensure the completion of spring plowing!"

"The Marshal's strategy is indeed good. He killed all the nobles in the past. Now these Liao *** are mostly landless. Now we have not only given them freedom, but also given them land to plant. For them, this is much better than the Goguryeo era. Everyone is very happy. Although the Liao people complained about it when they moved, they have basically calmed down now. Especially the land reclamation order you issued by Marshal, only one-third of the land you reclaimed must be paid to the government, and the remaining two-thirds will be owned by them and exempted from taxes for five years. Now many Liao people have begun to reclaim land, and even the Han people who immigrated from all over the country have also begun to reclaim land."

Chen Kefu smiled and said, "Live, let's reclaim, there are so many wastelands in Liaodong. I'm happy to reclaim as much as they are willing to. If there is more land, there is more grain, and the grain is the foundation. Mao Bo, is our Liaodong still sufficient grain reserves?"

When Chen Kefu first occupied half of Liaodong, he had nearly 10 million stones of grain. Later, he took down the entire Goguryeo, especially after killing all the noble lords, 90% of the entire Goguryeo fell into his hands. Now he has nearly 20 million stones of grain, which is equivalent to nearly 90% of the largest Huiluo warehouse in the three major warehouses of the Great Sui Dynasty. He has surplus grains, but his heart is not deserted. It is because of the food that Chen Kefu dared to immigrate to various places without hesitation to Liaodong.

"Marcedes to worry, in fact, after this war, we had a large number of cattle, sheep and horses. Except for horses and cattle as war horses and farming and transportation, all sheep were used for consumption. With the supplement of these meat, the food was not consumed quickly. In addition, we had long been following the marshal's instructions and purchased grain with all the caravans who came to Liaodong for trading. Now a large amount of food is transported from all over the place to Liaodong every day. Wheat, millet, beans, rice, grain, beef and mutton and other foods are constantly transported to Liaodong. The food transported every day has far exceeded the food consumed. Among the seven major cities in Liaodong, we each established a granary to prepare for another 20 million stones of grain reserves and another 20 million stones of grain."

Before the troops move, food and grass will go first. If you rebel, then the food must be prepared. Although there are chaos in the Central Plains now, there are still many places with food. In addition, the homes of landlords and gentry of aristocratic families basically stock up on a large amount of food. As long as Chen Kefu is willing to pay the price, no matter how famine is, the omnipresent grain merchants will transport a large amount of food. The key is that the price he has to pay is higher.

The Great Sui Dynasty never lacked food, but the government lacked the inaction of the government. The grain in the three major granaries of the Great Sui Dynasty contained 30 to 40 million stones of grain, and the governments in various places also specially built charity warehouses. The grain in these warehouses was donated by the people and landlords and nobles in the good year. Once the disaster year, these were life-saving food for the poor. In addition, some warehouses were closed, and the government specially hoarded grain to calm the price of grain when the price was too high.

The reason why so many people starved to death later was that there were too many robbers and rebels from all over the country, specializing in attacking granaries. The second was that the government refused to release grain. For example, at the end of the Sui Dynasty, although there was grain in the three major granaries, traffic had long been interrupted with various places, and even if there was grain, it could not be transported out. According to official historical records, some of the grain in the granaries of the Sui Dynasty had been war-torn until the time of Emperor Gaozong of Tang. They could all be reached by the third emperor of the Tang Dynasty. It can be imagined how much grain the Sui Dynasty had reserved during the prosperous times of Kaihuang rule.

Now, Chen Kefu has to buy food from the granaries of big grain merchants and landlords at all costs. As long as there is grain, even the bitter and cold Liaodong will become a paradise in the eyes of those hungry people everywhere at the end of the Sui Dynasty.

Grain does not have to be produced, it can be bought or robbed.

"In addition, the secret coin making furnace we set up in Beisha City has also been opened. At present, according to the Marshal's proposal, we not only minted five good meat coins day and night, but also opened two special furnaces, respectively, minting gold coins and silver coins. Each silver coins are worth 100,500 gold coins, one gold coins are worth 100,000 gold coins. Our current scale can be used to cast five-zhu copper coins in a year, one million silver coins, and one hundred thousand gold coins." Zhang Bo, who was also from Chenjiazhuang, said and took out a string of copper coins and a few gold and silver coins.

Crushing coins is actually a very simple process, and many merchants and nobles even have furnaces to cast in their homes. However, private money is a big crime. Yang Jian ordered that those who dare to cast coins privately will search their homes and behead them. However, now, the money system in the court is becoming more and more chaotic, and various copper coins mixed with lead and other substances flow into the market. The copper coins made by the government can make a lot of profits because of the melting of copper coins, which lead to less and less good money and more white money.

The imperial court even issued various iron coins that were one to five and one to ten, which seriously interfered with the order of business. The commodity trade in Liaodong is now very prosperous, and the daily transaction volume is very large. Since Chen Kefu opened the Sihai Money House, he had to exchange various copper coins every day. There was even no money available, and everyone could only barter. Seeing this situation, Chen Kefu simply asked Mao Bo and others to mint the money privately.

It is illegal to cast coins, but it is easy to cast them. This thing is not like the paper money from later generations, and there is any anti-counterfeiting technology. People with some power can cast this thing, and the key is the harsh criminal law of the court. As long as there is a few sets of coin furnaces and a few sets of coin coins, then as long as there is copper material, the coins will be cast like water. Chen Kefu sent people to mine, while collecting the copperware and melting them. Even the copper statues in some temples in Goguryeo were melted by him. The amount of copper coins is large and the copper consumption is large, so Chen Kefu simply cast gold and silver coins again.

In this era, only copper coins and silk were formal currencies, while other gold was rewarded by the emperor to the government and heroes. There were also those noble families who collected gold and could be used as transactions, but were not circulated. As for silver, there were fewer silver mines in the Central Plains at this time, and there were less silver than gold. Chen Kefu simply made gold and silver coins, rather than gold and silver ingots. A silver coin was equivalent to one hundred copper coins. These transactions were convenient and easy to exchange, and could promote circulation and commodity trading.

When the private money was minted, there was a Sihai Money House, which was constantly expanding exchange money house. In a short period of time, this private money from Liaodong had become the most recognized currency for all merchants. As the merchants flowed into Liaodong, the copper coins from the Central Plains were gathered into the Liaodong minting house by the Sihai Money House, where all kinds of miscellaneous coins were melted out and turned into coins minted in Liaodong again, and then flowed into the Central Plains together with gold and silver coins.

Mining, molten copper, minting coins, circulation, after this, Liaodong not only regulates coins and promotes commercial trade, but also has a more important point. While minting money at a high risk, it is actually a huge profit industry. If you mint money for a long time, the capital is only about 700 cents, and the profit of gold and silver coins is small, but if you mine yourself, the profit is even higher. Chen Kefu is so generous to the Liaodong. He will naturally not let go of such a huge profit industry. The continuous minting of money every day is equivalent to Chen Kefu making a lot of money every day.

Liaodong Wuzhu coins, Liaodong silver coins, Liaodong gold coins, Liaodong silver notes, Liaodong Sihai Money House, Liaodong Mine, Liaodong Money Making House, Chen Kefu established a complete industrial chain in Liaodong under the power of his hand, and it was also an industrial chain that could control the Liaodong economy.

There is food, there is someone, and there is money, and everything is under his efforts to control.

"Your Highness, although money and food are important, they are not the most important. What we really need is the military power in our hands. In a few days, the imperial edict will arrive in Liaodong. At that time, our troops will be divided into three. I wonder if Your Highness has already made arrangements?" Another Liu Bo said.

In troubled times, grass heads are kings. Only those with big fists are justified. No matter how rich or food you have, they can only make wedding clothes for others.

Of course, Chen Kefu could not make wedding clothes for others, so he had designed to make trouble for the Shiwei people before, in order to re-provoke the war, fortunately he had soldiers and horses in his hands. However, even if he fought with the Shiwei people, he would not be able to dispatch all the soldiers and horses to fight one Shiwei. The rest would still have to be divided according to the will of the court.

"The three systems of military soldiers, county soldiers, and garrison soldiers are different. In general, military soldiers must be scattered in various places to cultivate. The military soldiers must be stationed in major counties, while military soldiers must be stationed in nine critical passes in Liaodong. Therefore, military soldiers are relatively not very important. We can temporarily place new recruits in the army and some generals who have not found out the foundation into the military organization."

Chen Kefu preached seriously that he had not fully mastered the more than 100,000 troops. Now, this third-level military division plan can be used to disperse these troops to various places first.

"The county soldiers are soldiers stationed in the big cities of each county. This part is 21,000. The nine towns have 27,000 soldiers and horses. These soldiers control the most critical location in Liaodong. These places are the most important. The nine towns must all be our confidant soldiers."

"So my plan is that Zhang He, Liu Tiezhu, and Hu Hai's three armies will be transformed into government soldiers and dismissed from the army. Lu Shishen, Mao Yi and Chen Gui's three armies were divided into two, one of which was county soldiers, and the remaining most elite part was the nine town soldiers. My central army and the battalions of the palace were also transformed into government soldiers, but they did not need to dismiss the army. This time they would move with me to Fuyu and attack the Wei at any time. As for other Pojun martial arts lecture halls, the Staff Office of the Marshal's Office, the Special Service Office, the Investigation Office, the Police Office, and the Military Police Office, most of them turned into underground secret activities, and a small part continued to go north with the army."
