There is also another advantage in moving outside the Zhechong Mansion, that is, the land annexation of the Central Plains is now serious, and the court does not establish a land system but does not suppress annexation, and even encourages annexation. The important reason is that since Zhenguan, the court has made great achievements in developing foreign wars, and the court urgently needs to immigrate to the border.

There are a large number of newly conquered lands in the border areas, but no one immigrated to cultivate them.

The Central Plains have fewer land and more people, and the people have fewer land, and the farming income is low. The people are poor and poor, so how can the court receive more taxes? Not to mention that when people are poor, society will become unstable.

In recent years, the imperial court has formed not only not to suppress annexation, but also to encourage annexation. The fundamental reason is that the imperial court wants to drive the poor people in the Central Plains to the border to immigrate, and give them land again there, so that they can become landlords and guard the border for the country.

As for the land in the Central Plains being merged by the royal family and the nobles and powerful people to develop a manor economy, they generally used the Hu Man captured by foreign wars as slaves to manage these lands. Manor-made slaves were operated with high productivity.

Anyway, the Tang Dynasty had completed the tax reform long ago, and it was no longer the tax system that used to be granted land and taxed tax. It was not afraid that the people would invest in landlords and hide their household registration under the manor economy. After all, now it is based on land acres, and taxes will be imposed as much as the land there is.

The land is a manor model or a scattered farming model for the people. The total amount of land has not changed and the tax revenue is not small. Moreover, after encouraging a large number of people with little land but no land to immigrate to the border land, the land in the newly conquered areas of the border was granted to the new immigrants. After the tax reduction and exemption of taxes for the first few years, these lands became new tax sources.

The tax base has been greatly improved.

Therefore, it is also land annexation. In the past dynasties, the annexation would desperately prevent and crack down on it, because the annexation would bring about a large number of landless farmers. Under the tax system of previous dynasties, the people were important taxpayers and an important source of taxation for the state's finances and taxation. Once they lost their land, they would be unable to bear the national taxation, the state's finances would go bankrupt, and even the people would go bankrupt, and the dynasty would end.

But the new policies since Zhenguan are not afraid of these.

Because the past model of taxation based on D was changed, the new two-tax law that used land tax based on a mu, household tax based on households and other properties was changed, plus various industrial and commercial taxes, as well as disguised indirect taxes such as salt, sugar, tea and wine, it doesn’t matter whether the people farm or not, whether they have land or not.

There is no land tax, and there is no money-free household tax.

There is no need to worry about not having land. After all, there is a great rise in industry and commerce, and there are many opportunities to work in factories and make money. Moreover, there is a tenant and renting bill. If there is no land, then renting land for landlords. The court has laws that stipulate that tenants are also good people of the country. They are no longer the same dependents as the landlords. Tenants are no longer the tenants that have the final say in their own hands. They can’t even decide on the rent and tax, or even replenish rent at will.

The land rent is rented for every six years, and the lease rate is subject to the highest limit of the court. At the same time, the lease expires, and tenants also have priority renewal rights, etc.

To put it bluntly, in the Tang Dynasty, there was no dependence between landlords and tenants. The basic rights and interests of tenants were protected. Without their own land, there was no need to worry about being stucked by landlords.

Besides, if it really doesn't work, you can still immigrate to the border. If you don't want to be a tenant in the Central Plains, then go to the border to be a landlord.

If you have money, you can do your own business. Anyway, there is nothing to discriminate against industry and commerce now.

Now the prime ministers in the court also took this and proposed to move the Zhechong Mansion outside. Now the military fields of Zhechong Mansion in the mainland can be reclaimed, and they can be sold or rented. This can get a lot of money and can be used to fill military expenditures.

Then, in the border areas, the Zhechong Prefecture is re-adjusted and deployed as needed. For example, if the Western Regions are the first priority level, then one hundred Zhechong Prefectures will be deployed there and one hundred Zhechong Prefectures will be deployed there and one hundred Zhechong Prefectures will be deployed there and one hundred Zhechong Prefectures will be deployed there and one hundred 80,000 or 90,000 or 100,000.

Next is the southwest region, where Tonghai, Yongchang, Erhai, Lishui, Piyue, southern Tibet, and Xichang are everywhere, with barbarians and inconvenient transportation, so a large number of Zhechong Prefectures must be deployed.

Behind these three border towns, Saibei, Helong, Jiaozhou and other places, they must be secondary. Twenty or thirty Zhechong Prefectures are deployed, and 20,000 to 30,000 people are enough.

For other places such as the two capitals, it is enough to maintain a hundred Zhechong Prefectures each.

As for the areas in the south of the mountain, Jianghuai, Hebei, Lingnan, are relatively prosperous and peaceful, so each deploys eight or nine, ten Zhechong Prefectures, and ten ten Zhechong Prefectures, which is enough to have ten thousand people.

After re-adjusting the military focus, more than 70% of the Zhebu Mansion moved out.

The most deficient thing on the frontier is territory, and the best land can be given priority.

For example, in the Western Regions, Gaochang, Tingzhou, Suoye, Yili, Qinghai, Dayuan, Shule, Khotan, Kucha, and Yanqi, there are very fertile plains and oasis, which are suitable for farming and herds. At that time, 100,000 soldiers from the Western Regions, hundreds of Zhechong Prefectures can be given priority to encircle military fields in these places and granted them to Anxi Prefecture soldiers to settle down.

In addition to basic military fields, in order to encourage these government soldiers to conquer borders, more land can be given to officers as job land. If soldiers make meritorious contributions, they can also be awarded the land of honor, or even the territory fiefs, allowing hereditary.

Anyway, there is no cost to award land now, but these are problems that can greatly change the lack of sufficient motivation for the soldiers of the government since Zhenguan. Making meritorious service in war can not only be promoted or awarded, but also be awarded titles. Isn’t this attractive enough?

Think about the King of Qi of Anguo. Luzon, the overseas territory of the world, is a treasure island in the South China Sea. It is filled with gold and silver. It is his inner fiefdom, Wu'an Prefecture, which also has a population of one-third. Qin Lang has a tax of at least 100,000 households and 200,000 households.

Who can understand the benefits of this kind of worldly territory? After all, it has been more than 30 years since Zhenguan to this day. Even if most worldly territory is far inferior to that of the Qin family, it still has a good profit.

Lai Ji and his team planned to adjust the military focus of the Tang Dynasty in this way.

Change the military situation on the frontier, increase the combat effectiveness of the border troops, and even reduce the military expenditure pressure on the border troops.

If the troops in the palace move to the border, grant military fields, and grant meritorious land, and establish military garrisons, the border troops will be able to support themselves. When the border troops are stable, the court will be able to move more new immigrants to develop in the past. Only with a stable border situation will there be stable tax returns, etc.

At that time, we would not expect that the border areas could still have tax revenues to be paid to the national treasury. As long as the border troops could maintain the military expenditure and even solve most of them, it would have already lifted a heavy burden for the court.

After all, over the years, the imperial court's military expenditure has been getting higher and higher.

"The court's ruthless kings are so cruel!"

Through these words, Qin Lang even smelled the smell of land grabbing. It was not the border army, but the nobles and powerful people in the Luoyang Dynasty wanted to encircle the Central Plains.

Sixty or seven hundred thousand troops moved out, and their families and relatives would free up a considerable amount of land here, especially the military fields in Zhechong Prefecture, Central Plains, but most of them were the most fertile fertile land in various parts of the Central Plains that had occupied at the beginning of the founding of the country.

For example, the most fertile fields on the edge of the Baiqu on the Guanzhong Plain were all irrigated land. At the beginning of the founding of the country, Li Yuan used it to resettle the Yuan Cong Imperial Army who followed him to raise an army from Taiyuan.

This involves millions of hectares of fertile land in the Central Plains. After this migration is freed, it will be a huge cake that will definitely fall into the hands of the nobles and powerful people.

At that time, the military fields would become noble manors. They did not even need to rent them, but they would directly accumulate slaves and cultivate them. The groups of fertile fields in the manors would be more efficient in planting.

Especially Qin Lang could imagine that these manors would only plant grains of basic area according to the laws of the court, and then the rest of the land would be used to plant cash crops, such as mulberry, cotton, linen, and even tea.

Once this new military system is passed, in addition to the migration of the government troops, the court will also encourage many farmers with fewer land in the Central Plains to move to the border. Even if fewer and fewer people are willing to move now, as long as they are careful, they can still find a solution.

After a new wave of edge movements is launched, how many new vacant areas will be vacated in the Central Plains?

For these nobles and powerful people, their pursuit of land is endless, because investing money in business these days will also bring risks. However, although the land has low returns, it is the safest investment. Not only does the land have profits every year, but the land itself is a good thing that can always maintain its value and even fill in the value.

What's more, the manor economy is very popular these days. If you grow cash crops, do some processing, or have some supporting breeding, you will basically not lose money.

The more land, the greater the profit.

Especially for the land in the core areas of the Central Plains, because there are more choices in these areas, such as growing economic crops, cotton, mulberry, or tea and medicinal materials, and even developing breeding for pigs, ducks, cattle and sheep, growing vegetables, etc., the huge population of the Central Plains and close to those cities, the land will have higher output benefits, which is difficult to own in the wilderness of the border.

Agricultural planting in border areas has little income and is even inconvenient to transport it out.

Wei Chang previously suggested that Qin Lang take advantage of the opportunity of the imperial court to develop border areas and use money to develop it. The model is to use policies to snatch land and occupy mines first, and then use slaves to farm, mine, and develop colonial models, and ignore everything else. This is more difficult and money-saving than the development of the Qin family's colonial strongholds overseas.

After all, if the Qin family wants to expand the development of the colony itself, they have to invest in infrastructure, social management, and maintain an army, which is very expensive. Now the Qin family goes to the border areas conquered by the imperial court to operate, and there is no need to worry about the others.

Now it seems that the nobles and powerful people in the Central Plains are also shrewd and are promoting the reform of the new military system, moving out of the Zhechong Mansion, restructuring the Governor's Office, and immigrating to the Central Plains to become borders.

This will not only occupy more fertile land in the Central Plains, but also promote the court to continue to fight foreign wars, allowing them to obtain more cheap sources of slaves, and even border wars, and bring them more military supplies order business.

This has become a business.
