Chapter 1354

In addition to the emperor's mind, in addition to increasing the labor force and taxpayer population, Xiao Ruxun also has a deep hope for the equality of all beings.

He hoped that these once-existing untouchables would no longer exist, and there would be no distinction between high and low.

The untouchable system, like religion, deprives a large number of working people of the possibility of engaging in normal labor and increasing the number of taxpayers. Abolishing it will bring great benefits but no harm.

The new Daqin needs to be separated from the past, and those things in the past should just disappear with the wind.

Cooperating with the actions of liberating untouchables and land reform, Xiao Ruxun also formally promoted the policy of distributing people to mu, abolishing the poll tax levied since the Western Han Dynasty, devolving some taxes to the land, taxing land, and no longer taxing people .

At the same time, Xiao Ruxun also abolished the "consumption and envy" tax increase that began in the Han Dynasty, and ordered that tax collectors shall not collect other taxes on the grounds of consumption in addition to the statutory tax from then on, and if found, they will be severely punished.

The resulting reforms matched the further development of commercial taxation. While increasing the court's tax revenue, it greatly reduced the burden on the common people.

With the promotion of policies such as the liberation of the labor force and the promotion of policies such as the sharing of din into the mu, the revenue of the treasury has greatly increased, ten times that of the previous Ming Dynasty, and the imperial court has a great degree of freedom in doing things. Confidence, this time to give extra meals to the 20 troops, that's it.

But this is not enough, Xiao Ruxun wants to make the cake bigger, bigger, so he introduced wool looms from the UK to start a brand new industry.

He wants to send more ships to sea to find more unowned land to exploit. All in all, although Daqin is very big, it still needs more land and money.

And with a wool loom, you need enough wool.

Where does Mao come from?on sheep.

Where do sheep come from?on the prairie.

Where did the prairie come from?

in the hands of the enemy.

Whether it is economic, political or military purposes, Hetao must be wiped out, and the northern grasslands must be taken.

Zhao Hu's action is not only to win the military initiative, but also to win the pastoral area for the people of Daqin. In the future, when the sweater industry spreads out, this is the pastoral area prepared for the people of Daqin, where they can graze.

The same is true for the northern grasslands, which are also pastoral areas for the common people. At that time, the grassland will be rented to the common people at a low price, and they will go north to herd sheep, produce wool, mutton and milk, and the government will arrange people to buy them, and open a green channel to sell to On the land of China.

In the future Little Ice Age, the sales of woolen sweaters will definitely not worry.

In addition, it is also very important to further open up the European market and the markets of Southeast Asian countries. Southeast Asian countries, including North Korea and Ryukyu, are already full of Daqin merchants doing business. Some are spies in the Huangzhuang system, and some are Simple folk businessmen.

But the same thing is that the goods of Daqin are very popular in the local area, and are widely loved by the upper-class nobles. As for the merchants of their own countries at the bottom...

They don't seem to be too willing to take care of it. They all pay taxes. Daqin merchants pay a little more. It seems that there is no problem in handing over the business to them, right?

They still don't know what an economic colony is.

But it doesn't matter, they will have a chance to know, and, once they go, they will never return, Xiao Ruxun will deal with them in the same way that the United States deals with Latin America.

Although it is not the land of Daqin, it is better than the land of Daqin.

A large number of supplies were transported to the border, and a large number of civilians received a call-up order. Unlike before, this time Xiao Ruxun also used a large number of strong men from the Japanese country to undertake the task of transporting food, trying to reduce the burden on the people of his country, and pass this burden on to the Japanese.

The people of this country have only been able to truly recuperate since the second year of Longwu, and it has only been more than four years so far. Although there has been a lot of population increase, they are far from fully recovered.

Xiao Ruxun carried out his policy of caring for the people and passing this burden on to the Japanese.

A large number of Japanese people shed blood and tears to transport a large amount of food and grass to the border areas where troops were dispatched, and continuously delivered all kinds of materials, and then gathered there, were guarded, and waited for the war to start, and went north together.

As for whether he can come back, it really depends on the opportunity.

As for whether he will escape, it is hard to say. First of all, looking around in the vastness of the prairie, knowing the direction is a problem, and there is no food or drink, and death from starvation and thirst is very likely. Besides, , Xiao Ruxun didn't care too much about whether they would escape, at least the people who guarded them would definitely not let them go.

Time passed slowly, and at the end of July in the sixth year of Longwu, Xiao Ruxun once again received the news that Qi Dayong led an army to defeat the captives, and Zhao Hu led an army to defeat the Mongolian and Tibetan coalition forces.

Zhao Hu, in particular, performed outstandingly. He beheaded more than 3 people in World War I, annihilated more than [-] coalition forces, wiped out the main force of the resistance forces in Dasima and other places, and then led the army to attack wantonly.

He wiped out the ten thousand households of the former Mingfan people set up in that area one by one, beheading many people and capturing many people.

Bu Shitu, the leader of Tumote, was beheaded by Zhao Huzhen and lost his life. The 8 or [-] people in the entire tribe did not escape, and many died. In this way, the forces of the northern captives were wiped out by Zhao Hu.

And the power of Tibetans in Qinghai was also wiped out by Zhao Hu's fat meal, which severely deterred the rebel forces of Tibetans in the snowy area of ​​Qinghai. The resident intends to use this as a base to facilitate future immigration.

After this battle, all the northern captives in the area around Qinghai Lake were wiped out.

Zhao Hu led his army to continue to penetrate to the west, but along the way there were no large-scale, organized and threatening enemies that could threaten the Qin army.

Qi Dayong led the army to advance by land and water, and wiped out countless captives. Basically, all large-scale tribes were wiped out by him in various ways. Fish and shrimp are not a threat.

It can be said that the battle of double set and the battle of Qinghai has achieved a basic victory, and the next step is to clean up the work, and it is only the end of July, and it is not even August.

After learning the news, the staff headquarters was elated, and they finally had a more intuitive feeling about the combat capabilities of the Qin army.

The combat ability of the Qin army has been tested in actual combat, and the former Ming's confidantes were beaten on the ground like bullying children, while their own losses were very small.

After several battles, the number of Qin soldiers who died in battle was only [-], and many were injured, but most of them were cured.

Throughout August, Zhao Hu and Qi Dayong led the army to wipe out the remnants. When encountering basically extremely cruel and bloody massacres, they showed no mercy at all, and even captured very few prisoners.

For Xiao Ruxun's side, after getting specific references, he had a deeper understanding of the combat capabilities of the Qin army, and he became more confident about the Northern Expedition a few months later.
