Chapter 89: It took seven generations of emperors to recuperate and recuperate before he established his title as a strong man.

[Similarly, in addition to the label of using talents eclectically, Li Shimin also has the label of being obedient to advice. 】

[This is how the famous Wei Zheng in history got his name. Wei Zheng had an upright temperament and always liked to speak out and give advice, and almost never spoke in a roundabout way. 】

[And Li Shimin happened to be a democrat, so he admired Wei Zheng very much.And he personally told him repeatedly: "If you have any opinions, you should express your feelings directly."]

[At the same time, Li Shimin not only said this, but also did this.Whenever Wei Zheng expressed any of the above opinions, Li Shimin would readily accept them. 】

[And I think that if Wei Zheng was not dedicated to the country, how could he list the many things that needed improvement? 】
-
Song Dynasty, the first year of Kaibao.

Zhao Kuangyin also had to admit that Li Shimin was indeed kind to others, did not avoid relatives or enemies, and he was very obedient to advice.

But if you change it to another person, it is very likely to be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives, which is considered a kind of cowardice!
However, Li Shimin was not that kind of cowardly person. An emperor who fought on the battlefield still liked to conquer in person. There was nothing they were afraid of in such a person!

It is difficult or impossible for ordinary people to imitate.

[In terms of various systems, Li Shimin followed the Fubing system, the land equalization system, and the renting system. 】

[The Fubing system is a military system that started in the northwest. After continuous improvement and local adjustments in the Tang Dynasty, it was expanded to the whole world, allowing the central and local armies to set up military mansions to command the world's soldiers and horses. 】

[At the same time, in order to ensure the number of troops in Guanzhong, the inner pass of Guanzhong where Chang'an is located has [-]% of the country's troops!We always adhere to the concept of sitting in Guanzhong and being able to visit all directions. 】

[At the same time, some people may ask how many soldiers there are?In fact, most of the soldiers in the government army system come from ordinary people, and they can also be used by ordinary people. 】

[The so-called return to the people means that they are allowed to farm the fields on weekdays. During wartime, the state will issue orders to assemble and conduct training. Of course, they can also receive military pay. 】

[This method not only saved the country's daily military expenditure, but also ensured that the country's economic and agricultural construction would not fall behind half a step. At the same time, Datang's military strength was also guaranteed. 】

[The land equalization system was realized on the basis of the government and military system. Under this condition, the Tang Dynasty divided the fields into Yongye fields and Koufen fields. 】

[Yongye fields are privately owned, while Koufen fields are temporarily leased to individuals and must be returned to the court upon expiration. 】

[On this basis, each of the middle men (men who are underage) and Ding men (adult men) will receive one hundred acres of land, including eighty acres of Koufen farmland and twenty acres of Yongye land;]

[Old men (over 60 years old), severely ill and disabled people will be allocated [-] acres of land; those with widows and concubines will be allocated [-] acres of land;]

[If there is no young man, and the head of the household is an old man, a seriously ill (serious or incurable disease) or a disabled person, each person will receive an additional twenty acres of Yongye land;]

[Miscellaneous households receive land the same as the common people. 】

[Taoist priests and monks teach you how to allocate thirty acres of land, and nuns teach you how to allocate twenty acres of land;]

[Those who are engaged in industry and commerce are entitled to ten acres of Yongye farmland and forty acres of Koukou farmland. Those in narrow villages with little land and many people do not receive farmland;]

[Official households receive half of the land received by ordinary people; ordinary women, tribesmen, slaves, and cattle are no longer included in the scope of receiving land]
-
Ming Dynasty, Yongle 16th year.

Zhu Di had to admit that this indeed laid a good foundation for the Tang Dynasty to increase its national power in a short period of time.However, this policy of equalizing land is destined to be unsustainable. The land is limited but the number of people will increase.

You know, in their early years, the Zhu family lived in an environment where the people were displaced and had no fields. So where did the fields go?

How many people were displaced at that time?
The fundamental reason for the peasant uprising is also that the farmers have no fields and no guarantee of survival!
If a large number of farmers lose their land, then the land can only be concentrated in the hands of the princes and nobles!

Zhu Di felt extremely bored again. The Ming Dynasty will still be corrupt in future generations. After his death, there will still be the home team of chickens and dogs and thieves. If you want the land of the Ming Dynasty to always be in the hands of farmers, then you can only let those greedy people keep an eye on the land outside!
[Similarly, what emerges from this system is rent modulation. 】

[The amount of tax levied is determined based on the number of men. 】

[The greater the number of people, the greater the taxes. The smaller the number of people, the taxes can be reduced or exempted, and the court will even provide some help. 】

[Under various stable systems, the Tang Dynasty finally recovered from the chaos of the late Sui Dynasty. Coupled with the continuous success of foreign conquests and the opening of the Silk Road, the Tang Dynasty's economy continued to prosper. 】

[From the most intuitive population data, we have to see that from 200 million households in the early years of Zhenguan to the period of the next emperor Tang Gaozong, the population has reached 380 million households, nearly doubling. 】

[Yes, those previous policies only allowed the Tang Dynasty to restore its national strength. What really allowed the Tang Dynasty's economy to flourish and the society to enter a prosperous stage was the external conquests and the construction of the Silk Road. 】

[Perhaps people did not think of it at the time, or it was difficult for people of that era to predict that the Tang Dynasty would completely reach its glory in just a few decades of Zhenguan. 】

[After all, the last historical dynasty that reached glory was the Han Dynasty. After Emperor Gao founded the country, he worked hard and recuperated for seven generations of emperors. It was not until the reign of Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty that the shame of the past was completely washed away and the foundation of a strong Han Dynasty was established. title. 】

[However, Li Shimin only relied on his own generation to accomplish things and achievements that could only be accomplished by other generations! 】

[Of course, his confident and open attitude was a trend and a social atmosphere during the Zhenguan years. What really made the country prosperous and strong was inseparable from Li Shimin's followers. The contribution of Zhenguan officials was undoubtedly huge for the development of this country. 】

[For example, in the 20th year of Zhenguan, Wang Xuance was ordered to go to Tianzhu, but he encountered civil strife in Tianzhu and a minister usurped the throne]

[The usurper Aronashun did not want to be involved by the Tang Dynasty. Once the Tang Dynasty’s army came, he would have no power to fight back]

[So I planned to use the army to completely bury Wang Xuance, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, and others here. 】

[However, Wang Xuance and others were not caught, and they took the opportunity to escape to Tubo. 】

[Here, they issued a call, gathered troops, and gathered troops. In just over a month, they got more than 500 Tibetan soldiers and [-] Nile cavalry, a total of more than [-] people. 】

[Wang Xuance led these two armies and galloped all the way to the capital of Tianzhu]

[It only took three days to break through the capital city of Tianzhu, beheading more than [-] people, and captured the leader Aronashun, as well as princes, concubines, civilians, men and women, etc. Ten thousand people, the gold and silver property were collected together, and sorted out according to the Credit distribution. 】

[In the 22nd year of Zhenguan, Wang Xuance presented many captives and property from Tianzhu in Chang'an, and Li Shimin named him the official official of the imperial court, with a rank of fifth rank. 】
