Chapter 59: There are always traitors who want to harm us

It's still this schoolyard.

Countless men, women, young and old gathered, silently looking at the platform built in the middle.

There was a man shouting...

"I, Yang Feng!

Like your ancestors, they followed Emperor Taizu Gao from the south to the north, expelled the Tartars and restored China, and were also left by Emperor Taizu Gao in the north to guard the border and guard the Ming Dynasty like your ancestors.

But the place I left behind was a little far away.

In Kaiyuan, Liaodong.

Thirty thousand bathrooms.

Everything was good at that time.

No officer dares to withhold military pay, no one dares to fight privately, no one dares to kill soldiers, and no military households will not go hungry. Each soldier has fifty acres of land, and the remaining resident is twenty-five acres. A family of five can get nearly a hundred acres of land, and there is no need to pay taxes for the additional wasteland they reclaim. The wife and children who stay at home in battle have money and food, and there will be rewards when they win the war, and no one dares to withhold pensions when they are injured. As a military household, everyone is envied to be able to have enough food and clothing.

But Emperor Taizu Gao, Long Yubintian, began to change gradually.

The officers began to withhold money and food, and forced the soldiers to work for him. They made a coincidence to ask for money. They dared to torture soldiers and even found a charge to kill people casually. When they went to war, their wives and children were starved to death, and their casualties were all corrupt by officials.

The military households are getting harder and harder, and they have become inferior people that everyone looks down upon.

Generation after generation, we have become neither human nor ghost."

Yang Fengtai shouted with emotion with his left hand on his hip and his right hand on his face.

Like a mentor in a historical picture.

There was silence on the school ground.

This is the military households of the Three Guards of Tianjin and are also the main residents of Tianjin City. They were driven here by the Qi family army and the Navy camp.

But it was mainly about giving out silver. At this moment, Yang Feng was still piled up with 100,000 taels of silver in front of him!

The three guards in Tianjin are one or two taels of men, women, young and one or two taels of men, but they listen to him before receiving the money.

"It's so dark!"

Yang Feng shouted with a heartache.

Some of the military households on the school ground started to cry...

All he said was true.

At this time, the military households of the Ming Dynasty could basically be considered serfs of generals, and they were even worse than those real serfs. The real serfs were the righteous men in the gentry's family. The gentry could exploit them, but it was definitely not enough to kill them, but the generals of the garrison could really kill military households.

Because military households are military, they master military laws.

It's really dark!

"But now, the sun has finally come out. Look at this imperial edict. This imperial edict will abolish the three guards of Tianjin and I will supervise this matter. Today, I will officially announce the first decision made by the imperial edict in front of you. All the military households of Tianjin Three Guards have changed their civilian status, and all the land of the garrison you cultivated belongs to you directly. Next, I will clear these farmlands again and then issue you land deeds. Are you happy?"

Yang Feng roared as he waved the imperial edict.

The next moment, all the military households were screaming and cheering towards him, screaming and cheering...

"Master, Master, there is no such thing in the imperial edict!"

An officer was crying as if he was stupid.

Commander Ni can run away at this level. Anyway, they are all rich and the court has their own ways. They can be appointed as officials when they go to Beijing to do anything. Commander Ni is a third-rank official, but those thousands of households cannot leave.

What should Yang Feng do if they do?

They all make a living by exploiting military households for generations.

What do they eat without military households?

The cheering military households immediately calmed down.

Yang Feng looked at the fool with pity...

"Zhao Qianhu doesn't want you to live a good life. If you don't obey the order, what should you do?"

He shouted with a finger at the officer.

"Kill him!"

"He dares to resist the order!"

...

The next moment, the originally quiet military households suddenly turned into volcanoes that erupted.

Before Zhao Qianhu could wake up, countless military households drowned him like piranhas drowning his prey. At first, there were a few screams inside, but in a blink of an eye, there were no screams. Soon the military households cursed angrily and dispersed. Zhao Qianhu, who was finally exposed inside, was lying there like a ragged rag that had wiped the chopping board of a pig slaughter.

The remaining officers were trembling.

"Everyone, who else is questioning the imperial edict?"

Yang Feng asked.

The officers shook their heads without hesitation.

"Quiet!"

Yang Feng raised his trumpet and roared.

The military households immediately calmed down and looked at him with worshipful eyes.

"The second decision was to change the number of military households with nationality to one community, and elect the president himself. Each community set up a nursing home to support elderly people without children, teach children to study in a school, and treat diseases in a medical home. All three items were paid by the General Office!

The third item is that all silver, corvee labor, silver and other taxes are not required to be paid, and only one kind of land tax is paid."

Yang Feng shouted.

"The Great Marshal's Living Bodhisattva!"

"Master, I kowtowed you!"

...

The military households in front of them all cried and almost all knelt down.

"All get up, our Ming Dynasty will kneel down to heaven, earth, king, and teacher!"

Yang Feng shouted.

Of course, there are additional contents that will not be mentioned for the time being.

After the Qing Dynasty was finished, the land was divided and the court's counterattack this year was defeated, there was nothing else, that was, the surplus grain had to be sold to him. In addition, the militia, the silver, the silver, and the silver were not paid, but the land tax could not be based on the Ming Dynasty's people's land. The Ming Dynasty's people's land tax was pitiful, and the north was usually only one-twentieth.

Why do ordinary people still live so miserably at a tax rate of one-twentieth...

Twenty percent of fire consumption is not a tax!

It’s not like Brother Ma, but it’s good to ask officials to charge 80% of the fire consumption while boasting.

The same was true for not burning fire before.

Because there are other losses, 1.5 million shi of taxes are imposed, and there is also a record of 800,000 shi of loss.

"Master, Master, it's not good!"

Li Xin suddenly ran over in panic, interrupting Yang Feng's bewitching hearts.

"What's the matter panic?"

Yang Feng shouted.

"For some reason, the Ministry of War suddenly ordered us to rebel, and mobilized four armies including the general of Jizhen You Jixian, General Zhang Shijue, General Zhang Shijue, General Baoding Du Tong, Deputy General Yang Yuan of Shanhaiguan to fight towards Tianjin. Now Yang Yuan's vanguard has arrived at Liangcheng Station."

Li Xin said.

The military households were stunned and then started to cry.

I just saw the shadow of living a good life!

But the officers were happy.

"Why are you crying? You must be a treacherous minister. There are treacherous ministers in the court, and there are always treacherous ministers who want to harm us. Those corrupt officials are all in the same group and we cannot tolerate our lives in a good life, but we have the imperial edict. This is the imperial edict of the Emperor. The Ministry of War said that we were rebelling. Is the Ministry of War bigger than the Emperor? Do we listen to the Emperor of War? Those who want to live a good life will move. Your ancestors can follow Emperor Taizu Gao to sweep the world. Isn't the blood of your ancestors shed on you?"

Yang Feng yelled.
