Chapter 523

In the Han Dynasty, it was better for the people who had their own land. They only needed to support the court and the princes. However, if there was no land, they also had to support the landlords and wealthy families on this basis. What did Dong Hu give them?

Ten taxes per.

The land tax in the Han Dynasty had changed several times, but the difference was thirty tax one, which was much less than Dong Hu's ten tax one. However, if other taxes were included, the fiefs of the princes were not much different from ten taxes in terms of value. However, the people could bear taxes of ten taxes, but they could not bear taxes of ten taxes, but the reason was that the Han Dynasty lacked copper, and the people could bear taxes of ten taxes of ten taxes, but they could not bear taxes of thirty taxes with copper coins.

When Dong Hu told the people of Chenliu County that "one tax" would be "one for ten taxes", it meant that he was preparing to adopt the "three types of" military raising system, namely, implementing the garrison system in Bingzhou, implementing the government military system in Liangzhou, and implementing the recruitment system in Luoyang.

The system of the military and military garrisons are all based on the fields of soldiers. Although there are some differences between the two, the internal things are the same. Both must ensure that the fields for the soldiers are not lost. Only by ensuring that the fields of military garrisons and military garrisons are not lost can the combat effectiveness of military garrisons and military garrisons be guaranteed. The recruitment of soldiers is based on sufficient taxes and sufficient military expenditure.

Dong Hu has a different soul in his body. He knows very well that no matter which model he adopts, as long as he can meet the conditions for a "strong army", it will be enough to build a powerful army. The reason why he uses three forms at the same time is mainly because of the small population and the actual reason for the external environment.

Bingzhou, Liangzhou and Luoyang are all the same. There are insufficient populations, but the defense needs of the three places are different.

There is an external Xianbei enemy and a potential Wuwan people in Bingzhou. In addition, it also has to defend against the thousands of miles of grassland. Without foreign enemies in Liangzhou, it only needs to stabilize the internal security, while Luoyang needs to face the pressure of 20 to 30 million "enemy".

Bingzhou was short of population and had a large defense. If you want to die, you need everyone to work together. Therefore, all the people north of Yanmen Pass were all assigned to military households, and there were troops to cultivate and raise their own fields. Although the fields were divided, they still had no real separation. They still implemented a wartime economy. Everyone cultivated and harvested wheat, grain, and cloth into the treasury and then distributed them in a unified manner, which was similar to eating a big pot of rice.

There is no way to go in Bingzhou. It has too few people and too large defense. There are many soldiers who need to guard the border all year round. If the wartime economy is not implemented, the 100,000 soldiers in Bingzhou will collapse immediately.

Liangzhou is much better than Bingzhou. There are no foreign enemies in the southeast, west and north, so there is no need to maintain a large military organization. It can completely allow the people to farm, do business, work, and herd sheep freely... On the one hand, the tuition and tax are abolished, and the tax is also abolished, and only the "thirty taxes and one" low tax is used to support the people. On the other hand, the "five hundred acres" of land are used to maintain the permanent soldiers in the country, minimize the burden on the people, and at the same time maintain a certain number of permanent soldiers.

The external environment of Luoyang and Bingzhou is similar, and they both have to face a powerful foreign enemy. Compared with the Xianbei people and the Wuwan people, the princes of Guanzhong are stronger, but he has not been able to copy the practices of Yanmen County. The reason is that he needs to compete with prominent families for the people's hearts.

Just in terms of the private property of the people, there is no big difference between the people of Yanmen County and the tenants and slaves under countless families. The people of Yanmen County also do not have much private property, and all the outputs are taken to support soldiers by Dong Hu. This is no different from the fact that the major families take away all the outputs of tenants through high tenant rents.

After working hard for a lifetime, but in the end, nothing is left. Why should the people support you?

The people's hearts are beneficial. Gather with them whatever they want and do not do anything they hate.

The people are not stupid. Can you not know if you have money or not in your pocket? So Dong Hu can't do things like Yanmen County in Luoyang. Only when he lets the people in Jizhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, etc. see the real benefits, the people in the Central Plains will run into his pocket. But the reality is that any state in the Central Plains has millions of people, and any state is more people controlled by Dong Zhuo and Dong Hu's uncle and nephew.

Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Quan, who have never used dozens or millions of troops to fight? Faced with such pressure, Luoyang must maintain at least one hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and only so many soldiers can protect itself.

If there are 100,000 troops, if 30 taxes are taxed, how many people will be needed to support them?

Dong Hu repeatedly considered this issue when he was in Xingyang. In the end, he felt that Luoyang and Yanmen County, Liangzhou were very different. Whether it was the temporary "big pot rice" or the lower "thirty-one tax", these were not very suitable. Only by increasing some taxes to reach the "ten-one taxes". Even so, the soldiers in the army needed to farm themselves to make up for the lack of money and grain.

Yanmen County is a tax-free area, Liangzhou is a low-tax area, and Luoyang is a high-tax area with a "ten taxes and one" and it has a sense of layering. If the people feel that the survival pressure in Luoyang is too high, they will flow from high places to low places like flowing water, and there is no need to drive away by force. The people will enrich their borders driven by interests.

Of course, he believed that even if the "ten taxes" were high, in addition to the abolishing of the verbal taxes and even more miscellaneous taxes, the "ten taxes" were definitely much lower than the "thirty taxes" in the states and counties in the Central Plains.

No matter how low the taxes are, we need to force the people to catch them at this time. At least we have to harvest the wheat in the fields of Luoyang, right?

When Zhang Liao and Pang De ran to Chenliu County to arrest people, he specifically instructed the matter of "10 taxes, one, distribution of land, and borrowing grain". However, he did not expect that on the road, there were people kneeling on their knees and shouting "king". At first, he did not care about the words of the "king" in the old man's mouth, but he thought that the old man knew him and knew that he was the King of Qiang and the King of Huwa, but when the second and third waves... the captives knelt on the ground and shouting "king"...

"snort!"

"Liangbian Qiangman are all uninformed bastards. It would be fine to call us Huwa King. Our Han Dynasty is no different king. If the people keep talking about the king, wouldn't they tell others that we are just a little rebel? When we see that boy Wenyuan, we must knock him hard!"

“It’s so muddy!”

Dong Hu ran to Kaifeng angrily and said in front of the generals that Dong Zhuo often said. Dong Chong was speechless, but he didn't care much about it.

"What the eldest brother said is, but he also knows who the right cavalry camp led by Wenyuan are from Liangzhou. They are originally from Qiang people, so they are not at fault if they speak out."

"You still said?"

Dong Hu stared at him, Dong Chong, Sun Niu, Hu San and others all looked indifferent. Seeing that they were all indifferent, could he not know what they were thinking? But Zhang Liao and Pang De had already spread the "king" out, and even if they were angry, they would be angry.

"well……"

"One of them, nothing is worry-free!"

Dong Hu pointed at Dong Chong fiercely and picked up another report...

"That boy Yuan Shao ran over..."

"High, you can tell me your opinion first."

Dong Chong said without any worries: "Whoever dares to come over, let's hit him, and he won't dare to provoke us again!"

"We Hei Niu are willing to be the pioneer!"

"Hu San is willing!"

Hu San fell another step, but Dong Hu looked at the generals led by Dong Chong with a speechless look, and then turned to Liu Bian who was staying honestly by the side.

"Brother Bian thought what should I do?"

Liu Bian looked at Dong Chong and others nervously...

“Where should I look?”

"What's wrong with you if they can still eat?"

Dong Hu glared, Liu Bian hurriedly clasped his fists.

"Do whatever you say."

“…”

Everyone was speechless, and Dong Hu smiled and waved his hand. Liu Bian hurriedly retreated to his seat.

"Zheng, immediately send Ling Wenyuan, Ling Ming and others to return to Kaifeng immediately."

"ah?"

"Ah what?"

Dong Hu glared at him, and Dong Chong hurriedly clasped his fists.

"promise!"

Dong Hu looked a little more serious, stood up, and looked at the many brothers one by one.

"Some wars are defeated even if they win."

"Why?"

"Because the foundation is unstable, or we have no foundation in the Central Plains!"

Dong Hu looked solemn.

"Whether admit it or not, today is a time when people in the world are in chaos. We have the elite soldiers and generals who defeat more than 100,000 thieves, but we do not have the ability to turn the tide, at least for now, there is no other reason, just because we are all Liangzhou beggars that others look down upon and the Dong family in Lintao in the mouths of scholars!"

"The thirteen states and one hundred and three counties in the world. Except for Liangzhou and Bingzhou, which we really control, no one will listen to us. Even if we kill the bastards who are rebelling, even if Han Fu, Liu Dai, Kong Yi, Zhang Miao, Zhang Chao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Qiao Mao, Bao Xin, Yuan Yi, Kong Rong, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan, Sun Jian, Zhu Yan and others are all skinned and cramped. Even if we kill all the 200,000 thieves, the rest of the states and counties will not listen to us. They will not recognize their uncle and prime minister status, but they will bow their heads to the court!"

"It will be the same as the old boy Han Sui back then!"

"I will become the Qiang people in Liangzhou who are rebelling!"

"They will not really recognize my uncle, nor will they truly recognize my Liangzhou army, but they bowed their heads to the court. Are they sincerely bowing their heads?"

"no!"

"They will wait like the old boy Han Sui, waiting for the next chance to rebel."

Looking at the brothers with a thrust breasts and a protruding belly...

"When will they truly bow their heads? It is the time when the people of the world recognize us."

"How can we make the people recognize us, and we can govern the world by recognizing that we should not do the same thing?"

Dong Hu pointed out the door.

"Nothing else."

"The elderly have a place to live, the strong have a place to use, the young have a place to grow, and the widows, widows, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans, orphans,

"The east wind blooms at night, thousands of flowers and trees blow down, and the stars are like rain. The fragrance of BMW carvings is everywhere. The sound of phoenix flutes moves, the light of jade pot turns, and the fish and dragon dances overnight..."

"After doing these things, you will be qualified to govern the world. You are the famous ministers in the eyes of the people!"

The hall was filled with heavy breathing...

"You are all my generals in Liangzhou. I know the most about my Liangzhou affairs. Beigong Boyu, Shaodang Lao Wang, Han Sui, Bian Zhang, Li Wenhou, Wang Guo, Ma Teng and others rebel. How many people are still alive today?"

"Beigong Boyu, was Shaodang Lao Wang killed by the court? Bian Zhang, was the kingdom killed by the court?"

"no!"

"What's the result of the thieves in Liangzhou gathered 100,000 thieves in a few months? The black cow just touched it lightly, and the 100,000 thieves collapsed in an instant, and they all became our prisoners."

When Sun Niu heard the lord's praise, he suddenly straightened his body. Seeing him like this, Dong Hu no longer smiled.
