Winchester opened the door to welcome the Ming army, and Ying Ming also voted for me and rewarded him with his own promise.

The army obtained the identity certificate of the nobles from the obtained baggage, and then sent troops to search the property, real estate, and church property under the leadership of the people.

On February 25, 12th year of Wanli, under the witness of Huangming Banner, he registered his first household registration for the people of Winchester in history.

There was a little problem when searching the church's property, but Wei Si, who came from Puli County, was very versatile and was very skillful in doing these things.

"The general, in accordance with the land documents of the nobles, wealthy merchants, and monastery, seized 23,720 hectares of land, of which 4,350 hectares were completed on the evening of February 28 to the eight thousand seven hundred households under Winchester's rule and issued a land deed."

Wei Jinzhong entered Ying Ming's residence in Winchester and informed the general of the news.

This is like the Ming army's yamen in Pulixun. It was also the mansion of a noble man. The past owner was a new nobleman who had property and then titles. He built a three-story stone mansion, and there were also large areas of manor fields around it.

Now Ying Ming has taken a fancy to it and has become the base of the Eastern Army here. Stables and camps have been built outside, and the lower two floors are used for the offices of more than a dozen soldiers who have been converted to local officials.

When Wei Jinzhong reached the third floor, Ying Ming had just completed today's work and was leaning against a chair holding a gold-plated armrest armour with an iron clip to clamp the small lead cake on it one by one.

His left part of the iron arm was deformed by a page hammering in the battle of Puli. Because there was no suitable craftsman, he later found such a plate armor in the trophy and wore it on his arm. He could tell that the workmanship was fine just by looking at the pattern.

He was hit by a pistol at close range, but there were only a few small lead cakes on the arm armor, which were of very reliable quality.

Hearing Wei Jinzhong's words, Ying Ming put down the plate armor guard in his hand and said, "Well done, but have you dealt with the people who oppose the Ming army's confiscation of church property?"

Wei Jinzhong raised his hands and laughed, responding: "It's done, it's easy to handle it."

In Ying Ming's puzzled eyes, Wei Jinzhong explained: "I bypassed those prestigious people, gathered the people in the neighborhoods and villages outside the city, and told them that the confiscated land was distributed to them."

"They opened the city, and this is the reward of our court. There must be rewards, and no one can change it."

"But after the distribution, the land belongs to them. If they want to take the land deed and take the monks to the yamen, I will go through the procedures for them to donate the land to the monks."

"Even if there is no monastery, the monks are still there, and it will not be affected."

As he said that, Wei Jinzhong had a sly smile with a small idea on his face: "No one objected."

This is Wei Jinzhong's experience in fighting in Pulissi. In terms of knowledge, if Wei Jinzhong, a semi-illiterate in the Ming Dynasty, was compared to primary school graduation by elevating the way of learning, then the people of England would at most not be able to drop out of prenatal education, regardless of their knowledge and cultural level.

They are far from being so playful.

Ignorance is susceptible to incitement and disparity. When people are gathered by the incitement power, they are indestructible; but once they are divided, the crowd will become powerless mobs.

The inherent thoughts made them unable to accept the confiscation of church real estate and property by the Ming army. Although they did not resist because of this, they could easily become a soil for breeding resistance.

If part of the land is first distributed to the people as promised, then the power to donate the land to the church is handed over to themselves.

At least according to Wei Jinzhong's experience in the west, people often have extraordinary dedication when dominating things that do not belong to them, but once these things are specific to what they hold in their hands?

Ying Ming raised his eyebrows: "It looks good, are those monks still in your little yamen?"

"Here, the yamen has been in charge of food for three days. At first, they were quite happy. They couldn't sit still after staying for two days. They wanted to go out to find the people to ask for land, but I didn't let them go."

Ying Ming lowered his eyes and slowly shook his head: "They are not pious."

In response to his question, Wei Jinzhong shook his head very quickly and seriously: "They are extremely pious. These lands were given to the gods, so they are not given to the monks, because the monks used to have so much land and were obviously undevoted."

Ying Ming was stunned for a moment, smacked his lips dryly, thinking that if Wei Jinzhong explained this, there would be no problem.

"They are nothing great. In a few days, they probably should come back to their senses." Wei Jinzhong smiled and said, "I left them a mouse hole for them to wait for them to drill."

"What rat hole?"

Wei Jinzhong held the tongue-shaped wanded on the thumb of his left hand in his right hand and laughed: "The yamen has allocated land for all the people, but has not given the monks. Are the monks considered the people? They probably should have to find the yamen to ask for their own land in a few days."

"At that time, let them choose whether to be the emperor's people or the believers of God."

Wei Jinzhong narrowed his eyes, raised his thumb and then raised his index finger, and said, "He wants to be the emperor's people, so he gives him fifty acres of land; if he wants to be a believer of God, he sends him to the newly built City God Temple outside the city to serve the old temple to pray."

The counties in Puzhou followed the consistent advocate of the Dongyang Banner Army that, under each capture, the surrendered towns set up the City God Temple, and the highest military commander conferred outstanding performances during his lifetime as the City God, and guarded the city with heroic spirits.

There are now 144 City God Temples in the entire territory of Ireland, and there are 43 City God Temples in a corner of the state of England. Each City God Temple is set up according to the jurisdiction and the number of soldiers who have died in battle.

Usually, there are only one magistrate and two generals in small villages with less than five hundred households. The town of Thousand Houses has a magistrate and two generals. The more, the city god has a magistrate and another three magistrate and seven magistrate.

The most are Puli and Dublin, both with the City God, the Judge and the Twelve Divisions, and there are also shackles, and the four generals of black and white.

All the Chenghuang Temples in various places have selected loyal elderly people from Ailan Kingdom as temple blessings, and selected servants from prisoners to take good care of the incense of the Chenghuang Temple.

In fact, each City God Temple is also a cemetery of the Ming army. The fallen Dongyang Banner Army will be buried in the City God Temple on the spot. Some of the Makino Army also had this plan before the war. After the death, Ying Ming found a place to build a tomb for them.

The Eastern Flag Army erected monuments and the Makiya camped soldiers planted trees.

Although Ying Ming is still a hundred miles away from London, the City God Temple in Lun County has been arranged, and twenty-four divisions will be set up, and six generals of Black and White Impermanence will be included.

Ying Ming felt that it was not bad to ask the monks to serve the old temple.

However, before Ying Ming could smile, Wei Jinzhong had already winked and whispered: "General, I have found a few beautiful women in the family of the criminals in the city. Tonight..."

"well."
