Chapter 259 Prodigal Liu Mang
"Hero Palace?!" Wherever there is the easiest place to get information, it is naturally Lu Bu. Lu Bu really cared about his cheap son-in-law, although Lu Bu did not deliberately monitor Liu Mang's every move, he was also very concerned about Liu Mang. When Liu Mang attacked Shouchun, Lu Bu had wanted to take his Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry or let Gao Shun lead the camp to help, but he didn't expect that this kid would set Shouchun one day, so Lu Bu gave up this idea. Now some of the orders issued by Liu Mang really gave up Lu Bu's headache.
For example, the hero hall issued by Liu Mang. He built a hero hall on the main hall of Shouchun Palace, and recorded all the city management army and black chess soldiers who died in battle, even Wei Xu and Song Xian. What would the soldiers under Lu Bu think? It was the same Lu Bu army! Although Liu Mang was semi-independent, it was still different from Lu Bu army! It was the same Lu Bu army, why could they enter the hero hall and enjoy worship after they died in battle, but they couldn't do it? Lu Bu is now under his command of Bingzhou Wolf
The cavalry and the camp also suffered a lot of casualties. Do you have to burn names one by one? This is a lot of workload, which is better. After all, it is enough to arrange people to go on. The key is that Liu Mang treats the soldiers who died in Shouchun. This is what really makes Lu Bu trouble. Everyone who died in battle is rewarded with fifty acres of fertile land and one gold. Lu Bu has been killed in Bingzhou Jiuyuan until now. The number of people who died in battle is unknown. If they were rewarded like this, Lu Bu would have gone bankrupt long ago.
Now that Liu Mang is playing like this, he, a father-in-law, can't do it if he doesn't follow him! So Lu Bu has a headache. Although all the soldiers in Lujiang have been killed, the fertile land is also a masterpiece. There are many rewards.
"Lord! The matter of the Hero Hall!" Chen Gong directly entered the conference hall. He also received news. This is really the first time in the ancient times. People either worship gods or ancestors. There is no precedent for worshiping soldiers and worshiping the fallen generals. Especially in this Hero Hall, there is a low position for civil officials. As long as civil officials who devote themselves to their lives and die, they can enter the hall. Even Chen Gong can't stand such temptation.
"You know too!" Lu Bu rubbed his temples. Lu Bu was no longer the stubborn person he was. He no longer relied on his own force too much. No matter how strong a person is, he is still a person. Only with a strong comprehensive strength can he be truly powerful. "What should I do if you say those rewards on the public station?" Lu Bu was this headache.
"Haha, lord, you're a little worried!" Chen Gong said to Lu Bu with a smile. In addition to learning more about the Hero Hall, he also helped Lu Bu solve these reward problems.
"Worry too much?" Lu Bu was a little confused. "You must know that there are hundreds of thousands of people who have followed me, Lu Bu over the years!"
"Yes, there are hundreds of thousands!" Chen Gong was also a little moved. Chen Gong followed Lu Bu when he was from Yanzhou, and even if Chen Gong passed by Chen Gong, there were no less than 100,000 soldiers. He lost 70,000 troops in Xuzhou alone. Others fought against Liu Bei, Yuan Shu, and Cao Cao that time was not a big battle! If they really counted one by one, it would be really difficult to deal with.
"But lord, the families of those who follow the lord who die in battle are no longer there!" Chen Gong said to Lu Bu. The soldiers brought by Lu Bu from Bingzhou were basically not married, so they did not need pensions if they died in battle. There are also Xuzhou soldiers. Most of the Xuzhou soldiers were killed in Xuzhou. Even if they have families, they would not be rewarded in Xuzhou. It was Lao Cao's territory. After the difficulties, it was Chen Deng's army in Guangling, and there were many deaths. However, Chen Deng brought out many people without any concerns, so there were not many people who really needed pensions, and only the Wolf Cavalry in Bingzhou and the Cang Camp were there! There were also some soldiers summoned in Lujiang. The families of these soldiers needed pensions, and the other soldiers needed to rectify their names so that they could enter the Hall of Heroes.
"In this way, these will be left to you on the public station!" Lu Bu is now basically a hand-off manager. In addition to training soldiers, Chen Gong is the leader in other small and big things.
"Yes!" Chen Gong smiled bitterly. He was busy now. The reconstruction after the Lujiang War, the equipment of newly added personnel, and summer harvest and summer seeds were all for Chen Gong to be busy with. Now he has to add such an errand.
"By the way, I'll send Han Yang a letter, asking him to add Chen Deng's father Chen Gui in the Cultural Hall of the Heroes!" Who said that Lu Bu can't be a human being and doesn't understand people's hearts? It's just that Lu Bu was too proud of his own force before, but now when Lu Bu is old, he naturally thinks of others.
Chen Gui, it can be said that most of Lu Bu lost Xuzhou was due to this old man's credit, but for Chen Gui's son Chen Deng and to win Chen Deng's heart, Chen Gui also entered the Hall of Heroes. In this way, Chen Deng would be even more grateful to Lu Bu!
"Hero Palace?!" Another thing that is paying attention to Liu Mang is Zhu Ge. Zhu Ge now has his own victory or defeat in Jiangxia and Zhou Yu's Jiangdong naval army, but overall, Zhu Ge is still more profound. After all, Jingzhou has a higher foundation, and Zhu Ge's wisdom is here. With the help of Wenpin, Li Yan and Huo Jun and others, he is also very popular. Wenpin has a trend of being Zhu Ge as the main one.
What Zhu Ge now has Liu Mang's recent moves. Liu Mang occupied Shouchun and burned his friend Feng Chu once. Zhu Ge didn't know how to evaluate it, because although Pang Tong was in Nanyang, Zhuge Liang also knew that Pang Tong was not bad in his heart, and Pang Tong was so smart that smart people like to interact with smart people. Therefore, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were very good at personal training, and even borrowing arrows on the straw boat was a strategy revealed by Zhu Ge inadvertently in his conversation with Pang Tong. This skill really used all the right time and place. Once successful, it would be a classic battle. Unexpectedly, Pang Tong used it in the Huaihe generation. As expected, it really became a classic battle, because the name of Braised Little Turkey in Huainan made Jingzhou Shilin laugh so hard that he was out of breath. Pang Degong's face turned red at that time.
Who made Feng Chu famous by him, Pang Degong? Jingzhou has Wolong Feng Chu. It can be assured to the world. This is a complete self-promotion. The advertising behavior is the same as those hype people in modern times, but Feng Chu Pang Tong and Wolong Zhuge Liang are really talented and knowledgeable.
Now Feng Chu Pang Tong is called a little turkey. There is Feng Chu in Jingzhou? But turkey! Pang Degong's face was slapped by Liu Mang, and finally a braised little turkey came. It was really embarrassing to throw it to grandma's house!
Fortunately, Zhuge Liang, the Wolong, also came out of the mountain. Now he helped Liu Biao in Jingzhou stabilize the situation and made the Jiangdong navy stand in a hurry, which dispelled people's further jokes. Otherwise, the bragging title of Pang Degong would have been spread.
After the famous dishes in Huainan, this Ming Gong really didn't stop. The information stated that Liu Mang's reward for the soldiers who died in battle was really high to a certain extent. Each person and each household had 50 acres of fertile land and a piece of gold were added. The tax collected was only three levels. He was so generous that he almost gave it away for nothing. You should know what the normal tax was! That was seven or eight. Once someone scored five in ten, he would be a good person. He was a good official, and now Liu Mang only had 30% of it, which was vain.
It’s a gift! Now there are few people who are killed or injured now, and it’s hard to tell how many people are killed or injured. Once the territory is larger, the number of people who are killed or injured in such a big battle will not be 10,000 or 20,000. What should I do if this reward is done at that time! For example, the battle between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao in Guandu is now in the battle. Once Yuan Shao died, there will be tens of thousands of people, and Yuan Shao even suffered hundreds of thousands of casualties. If you follow the reward like Liu Mang, it will be difficult for Yuan Shao to raise all the rewards even if he sells himself. Although this skill can win the hearts of soldiers, it is not a long-term solution.
As for this hero hall, Zhuge Liang also had a little excitement in his heart as Chen Gong. He was also thinking, if my plan was really successful, would he have Zhuge Liang's position in that hero hall?
"Hero Palace?" Everyone has different opinions and attitudes towards things. Zhuge Liang and Chen Gong were excited. In the eyes of Sun Ce in Jiangdong, this was a kind of disdain for "sensationalism!" In the eyes of Sun Ce, heroes were evaluated by future generations, and they were not determined by himself. What is a hero? Could it be that the hero who works for you, Lu Bu, is the hero? So what have the rest of the world become! Rebels? Rebels?
What is different from Sun Ce's disdain is that Zhou Yu also felt a little excited, but his excitement was not that he wanted to join Liu Mang's Hero Hall! You should know that he and Liu Mang's Lu Bu army were enemies, and Zhou Yu's excitement and smile were that he saw something. "Bo Fu, this Hero Hall is a strategy to attract people's hearts. His Royal Highness of Shu is really good to use it!" As soon as the Hero Hall came out, Liu Mang's subordinates would inevitably work together. Everyone would work hard for Lu Bu army and live for the Lord. Not only would the lord help you take care of your family, but he could also enter the Hero Hall, leaving his name for future generations to admire and enjoy the incense. This is designed for you when you die! Naturally, it is easy for your subordinates to work hard.
But the basis of all this requires you to have money. According to the current calculations of Lu Bu’s army, Lu Bu’s army has 5,000 Bingzhou wolf cavalry, 5,000 camps in Lujiang, 5,000 Taishan Army, Guangling Army, and 5,000 garrison troops. There are 20,000 garrison troops in total, which is 40,000. In the hands of Liu Mang in Shouchun, there are 5,000 urban management troops, 5,000 black chess troops, and more than 12,000 Ganning naval troops, and 8,000 garrison troops, and 30,000 people here!
The total number is 70,000 people. According to Liu Mang's reward for the soldiers who died in battle, there are fifty acres per person. If 70,000 people calculate how much it is, I'm afraid there are not so many fertile land in Lujiang and Shouchun! What is Lu Bu using to get the reward for his command?
If he has no faith in his soldiers, it will be really difficult to command the troops. Moreover, his taxes are only charged three levels. Lu Bu's army is ready to drink the northwest wind! Sun Ce has already collected the taxes to the seventh level in Jiangdong, but even so, Sun Ce's army's food and grass are still a little short of money.
Liu Mang's plan could only be to lift a brick and shoot himself in the foot.
"The Lu Bu Army in Yangzhou is no longer worth worrying!" Zhou Yu smiled very happily, and there were really people who dug their own graves.
There are really many people in the world who think so. Liu Biao in Jingzhou is laughing. Cao Cao had just returned to the camp and only 2,000 troops were left. All the others were killed in battle, but even this brought Yuan Shao's 100,000 naval troops closer to hell. He admired Liu Mang's Hero Hall, but he also frowned for the pension of the soldiers who died in battle. He originally planned to imitate the Hero Hall and build one on this Xudu. Because the 30,000 soldiers were really killed in battle for him, Cao Cao saw with his own eyes that a Cao army soldier had been penetrated by several sharp blades through his chest, but he still grabbed an enemy and dragged him into the water. Even if his arms were cut off and his legs were cut off, he still bit the enemy and the enemy with his teeth. Isn't such soldiers worthy of respect? They should not be respected by men and horses!
So Cao Cao was also planning to build such a heroic palace in Xudu. Moreover, there were many generals who had been killed for Cao Cao over the years, such as Dian Wei, his eldest son Cao Ang, his younger brother Cao Chun, and Li Dian. These people Cao Cao wanted to establish a spiritual throne for them to worship, but the kind of pension from Liu Mang's army really made Cao Cao feel bad. If Cao Cao was following Liu Mang's pension, it would not be enough to lose everything!
How many wars did Lao Cao fight? From fighting the Yellow Turban Army, then fighting Dong Zhuo, and Zhang Miao, Tao Qian, Yuan Shu, Liu Bei, Lu Bu, and Yuan Shao, now the casualties and soldiers were almost hundreds of thousands. If we really counted according to that, Lao Cao really wanted to lose all his money. Not to mention the fertile land he rewarded, he could not bear the tax. So Lao Cao was not going to join the pension column, but if the pension was not added, then what's the use of imitating this hero palace to build a place of worship!
It's just a joke that the soldiers will definitely compare when the time comes. Look at how much pension a person was killed in Lu Bu's army, but we have nothing. The world is not worried about the inequality but the unevenness. It's angering to compare people.
Also, Lao Cao was preparing to see the joke of His Highness Liu Mang, the King of Shu.
So many princes are laughing at the joke! And our Shu King Liu Mang continued to throw a bomb. He issued an order. As long as the people who arrived in Shouchun were rewarded with one acre of fertile land, children were rewarded with half a acre of fertile land, all of which were given for free, and only four levels of taxes were collected. However, there was a prerequisite, that is, you must cultivate the seeds given by Shu King Liu Mang on this field, and you must cultivate it for five years before it can be considered your field. These fields are not allowed to be bought or sold. If you have urgent matters, you can only sell them to the government, that is, Liu Mang's army, and no other people are allowed to buy or sell land.
What kind of dictate is this? It really makes the people of the world confused. The land can be bought and sold freely. If the land cannot be bought and sold, where will the land be born? You must know that agriculture is the main focus at this time! If the family has spare money, everyone will buy land. Only with land can the descendants not starve to death.
Liu Mang's order was originally set up to avoid forming a large landlord. Once the land can be bought and sold freely, the land he taught the people would be enfeoffed again soon, and all the land belongs to Liu Mang's army.
40% tax? Never increase the tax! This is the biggest joke among all jokes. A mu of fertile land can produce 400 kilograms of grain. If you pay the four floors, it will be 160 kilograms, which is one stone, and there are more than 200 kilograms left. An adult man only eats half a kilogram of grain a day. This is the rhythm of eating fullness, and these more than 200 kilograms are enough to consume in a year.
When can ordinary people eat enough nowadays? That is, when the year is getting better, they will not be full at all at other times. They can only use wild vegetables and bran and food to fill their stomachs, because the tax burden has been high as seven or eight layers!
Liu Mang's fourth floor has really become a joke. I'm afraid that once these fertile fields are activated, Liu Mang may not even be able to raise food and salary from his soldiers. A tax of one acre of fertile fields is only less than 50,000 yuan in the whole Shouchun. The result is that Shouchun is not enough to raise soldiers! This is still the time when the year is better, and if the year is not better, then Liu Mang will cry!
Of course, our King of Shu Liu Mang would not cry, because who said that Liu Mang was going to grow rice? He did not plant rice. The seeds he planted were brought back from the present world and were built in those books. In fact, to put it simply, sweet potatoes, the original name of sweet potatoes, is an annual herb. The leaves grow generally in oval shape, and the corolla comes in many colors, the most are pink, white, and purple. The parts buried underground are mostly oval roots.
Simply, it is also called sweet potato. This thing likes warmth and is afraid of cold. Low temperature is harmful to its growth. When the temperature drops to 15c, it stops growing. If it is below 9c, the potato will gradually be affected by cold damage and rot; within the range of 18~32c, the higher the temperature, the faster the sweet potato grows, and more than 35c is not good for growth. The appropriate temperature for root formation and expansion is 20~30c, and 22~24c is the most suitable. In the Huainan generation, the temperature is almost the same, so its rise is absolutely very good, and the moisture is also standard. The yield of the above and underground parts is very high, the stems and leaves are lush, the roots are well developed, the growth is rapid, the transpiration is strong, and the sweet potato needs a large amount of water. The relative soil moisture content is before growth.
It is best to maintain the period and later stages at 60-70%, and the middle stages are the peak growth period of stems and leaves and the expansive stage of potato cubes. The relative water content of the soil should be maintained at 70-80%. There are not many in the Huainan generation, and the water is the most abundant. There are four dams around Shouchun, which is for water diversion and irrigation. Liu Mang is preparing to use them. Sweet potatoes like light and warm, and are shade-tolerant crops. Inadequate light, the leaves turn yellow, severely fall off, and there are no leaves. Poor light is generally reduced by 20-30%. Sweet potatoes are short-day crops, and the sunshine hours per day are within 8-10 hours, which can induce sweet potatoes to bloom and bear fruit. The light in Huainan is absolutely sufficient, otherwise it will not form a cat forest.
Soil has strong adaptability to soil, good acid and alkali resistance, and can adapt to the range of soil ph4.2~8.3. It is distributed in Beijing, Shandong, Linyi, Henan, Tianjin, Hebei, the three eastern provinces, Inner Mongolia, Yunnan, Sichuan, Hubei, Gansu, Anhui, Fujian and other places.
Although Huainan has not been planted since ancient times, it is because Huainan can plant other things, so it is not planted. But now it is different. What Liu Mang needs is a large amount of military rations, as long as he can eat enough, he doesn’t need to eat well! This is the characteristic of ancient combat!
Sweet potatoes are divided into spring sweet potatoes, and summer sweet potatoes. Generally, spring potatoes yield per mu is 3,500 kilograms, summer potatoes yield per mu is 2,500 kilograms of red-skinned and white meat, with high yield and stable yield, and wide adaptability. The "Yu Potato King" has a high yield of spring potatoes, which can be as high as about 5,000 kilograms per mu. Spring potatoes can be planted in the south, and it can be planted in any area where sweet potatoes can be grown.
And in Huainan, it is the best place to plant all kinds of things, otherwise it will become a land of fish and rice in reality.
Liu Mang didn’t know how high it could be grown in the Eastern Han Dynasty without chemical fertilizers and pesticides, but it was still possible to have about two thousand pounds! The tax of two thousand pounds was really high to a certain extent! (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
