The territory captured in Zhao Kaishan's ruling area is very particular.

Before the war, the local economic ecology was part of the landlords and gentry, Meng'an Mouke households accounted for part, and ordinary people under the government's management accounted for part.

This structural model barely maintains a balanced relationship in three aspects.

After the war, everyone expelled the Meng'an Moukehu and this part of the land was vacant.

During the war, landlords, gentry and civilians will inevitably suffer some losses. In the chaos, there is no sword in the chaos, and no one can die, but he can only admit that he is unlucky.

So another part of the land was vacated.

These two parts of the land are the spoils of the Restoration Army.

At the beginning, Zhao Kaishan didn't care about how to divide these spoils, but just did it according to very primitive conventions, and whoever defeated them would be the one who would be.

If you fight, you will be yours, I will be yours. We will not owe each other. If you continue to listen to my orders, I will not give you anything extra. Just take care of your own.

Not only other generals, Zhao Kaishan himself would also happily take the lead in seizing land, farms, tenants, and eating very fiercely.

Not only Zhao Kaishan himself, but also the rest of the Zhao family, who also rushed to seize the land.

In this process, the entire Zhao family, who had benefited from the dividends of the uprising, expanded to more than 200,000 mu of land, and the number of tenants increased several times, making them full of energy.

Later, the uprising was on the right track. Su Yonglin believed that this was not a normal phenomenon and believed that the Restoration Army should not do such a bandit-like thing, so he persuaded Zhao Kaishan to prevent him from doing this, otherwise he would bring the Restoration Army into the ditch sooner or later.

Zhao Kaishan thought about it and thought it made sense. So under Su Yonglin's administration, Zhao Kaishan promulgated a public land system in the Restoration Army ruling region.

The meaning is very simple. The unowned land that was captured is all public land, and no one can occupy it at will. Instead, it must be fully counted after the war, and then the rebel leaders will be uniformly distributed according to everyone's military achievements.

Those who have great military achievements will get more, while those who have little military achievements will get less.

The land that every person who makes meritorious service can obtain every time he makes meritorious service has an upper limit. After the upper limit is passed, it will no longer be granted and cannot be superimposed to an infinite extent.

In this way, after the land of military achievements is settled, a part of the land can be replenished in the public land account. This part of the land will be calculated based on household registration and the number of labor force will be awarded to the displaced civilians in the war.

Give them land, let them farm, let them live and work in peace, exempt them from taxes for a certain period of time, encourage them to engage in agricultural production, and then pay taxes, thus becoming a loyal fan of the Restoration Army.

In this way, the economic order within the Restoration Army ruling can be slowly established.

This is a system designed by Su Yonglin for Zhao Kaishan according to the actual situation of the Restoration Army at that time. While meeting the needs of those who have made meritorious service, it also safeguards the interests of the lower-level people to a certain extent, allowing everyone to share the dividends of the uprising.

If it can continue to operate, it will be very meaningful for the advance of the Restoration Army.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as expected. Not long after this system was formulated, Su Yonglin and Sun Ziyi were excluded by Zhao Kaishan and went out to develop independently.

So from the beginning, this system was just a sign of appearance, with only a shell, and no real inner self.

There is a system, no one is willing to implement it, and no one is willing to truly abide by it.

Who would like to use a knife to cut the flesh from himself and give it to others for food?

Such people are either engaged in Ponzi schemes or proletarian revolutionaries.

Neither of Zhao Kaishan nor others were, they were just simple landlords, only interested in land and power, and of course they would not attack themselves.

After the uprising, Zhao Kaishan naturally did not harm the local landlords and gentry, and even wanted to win over those who helped, and we all shared the benefits occupied by the Meng'an Moukehu.

The lower-class people were completely ignored, and it was their best treatment to be able to join the army and serve as soldiers.

Moreover, sometimes people's desires have no end. If the amount of public land that is not enough to fill their desires, they need to take a part of the land of the common people to satisfy their own desires.

Anyway, their thoughts are very outdated. Of course, I have the final say in the territory I have built up, and everything is up to me.

It is hard to say what methods are used in this.

Zhao Kaishan himself needs the loyalty to him personally driven by local forces under this kind of interests to expand his power and expand his troops, so he turns a blind eye to this situation and doesn't care.

Therefore, the land granting that could have protected the interests of the lower-level people to a certain extent became a gimmick under the public land system.

Can see it, can't get it.

The number of public land in the accounts of the Restoration Army was very large, but it only existed on the accounts. It was written in black and white and saw it in practice, and it could not be seen, and it became Schrödinger's public land.

The lost people looked at the land and were eager to see it, but there were only two ways for them to be fleeing or entering the Restoration Army to serve as a soldier to eat food.

Don't even think about the land.

In addition to the area controlled by Su Yonglin, which implemented the new rural policies, carried out small-scale land reforms, and safeguarded the interests of the peasants, the dividends of the uprising generated during the entire uprising were all divided by the senior leaders of the Restoration Army and the middle-level leaders.

The upper level eats meat, the middle level drinks soup, and the lower level can’t even eat a little shaved.

Among them, the one who received the most benefits of the uprising was the military group of the Resurrection Army represented by the Zhao family, which obtained military merits, followed by the landlords and gentry who helped the local area.

As a result, a large amount of land fell into the hands of the senior leaders of the Restoration Army and the landlords and gentry. They obtained larger-scale land wealth through the uprising, their personal property expanded rapidly, and their personal happiness significantly improved.

However, the separation between the senior and grassroots of the Restoration Army has become even more serious.

Unless the soldiers from ordinary people are lucky and promoted to officers, they can still get a little scrap, and the rest can only shed blood and tears but get nothing.

All they have is a little salary, food that is difficult to fill their stomachs, and the pitiful pension after their death in battle.

The civilians are even more miserable. Apart from a little food, it is difficult to get even money. They also have to delay their own production in order to transport grain, which is not worth the loss.

The distribution of the dividends of the uprising was not as good as theirs, and the treatment of joining the army was very poor. Soon, their enthusiasm for the uprising was exhausted.

The enthusiasm aroused by Zhao Kaishan's propaganda slogans that learned Su Yonglin's appearance but could not learn the root cause dissipated.

The military group of the Restoration Army, as well as the landlords and gentry, who had gained benefits, were also immersed in the huge benefits they had gained, fell in love with luxury and lacked interest in continuing to move forward.

Coupled with Zhao Kaishan's amazing superb military command art, the Restoration Army went slower and slower, more difficult, and more conflicts became bigger.

When Zhao Yucheng was confused, he wrote letters to Su Yonglin many times, hoping to get some guidance.

Su Yonglin also seized the opportunity and mentioned many times that he paid great attention to allocating the dividends of uprising to the lower class during the uprising.

Of course, those who join the army will not say that they will give enough salary and food, and make military achievements and have additional rewards.

For those who help transport food, if you have money and food, you can give money and food. In special times, you can use something called white sticks instead of your expenditure. In the future, white sticks can be used to deduct taxes.

Then the land and household registration seized from the Jurchens are included in the statistics, and the farmers are allocated according to the number of labor in their families, registered and built their own economic base.

Only in this way can a military provide sufficient logistical support.

When the logistics is supported, the army will stabilize, the army will stabilize, and the local government will also stabilize.

This is a gradual process.

You have to make everyone feel involved, make everyone feel that their efforts are not meaningless, see real changes, and let the benefits reach every ordinary person, so that they can have uninterrupted enthusiasm for the uprising.

Only then will they join the army enthusiastically, support the uprising and protect the results of the uprising.

When you bind your own interests with the interests of the extremely large number of people at the bottom, you are almost invincible.

Su Yonglin took apart this principle and told it to Zhao Yucheng bit by bit, hoping that he could learn something.

Of course, Su Yonglin's original intention was to let Zhao Yucheng learn, but he did not let him practice it regardless of the actual situation.

As a result, Zhao Yucheng really tried to practice it.
