Chapter 420
Wang Hou, a traveler, issued an order that was extremely backward, and even retrograde to the Western Zhou Dynasty.

Franchise!

One hundred veterans, according to the relationship between superiors and subordinates, he divided a large area from Lianjiao City to Jinzhou Isthmus into five county territories and one hundred county male territories, and entrusted these lands to these veteran families for generations .

This is very similar to the enfeoffment system of the Zhou Dynasty when it was established, and it is similar to the enfeoffment system used in the Western Middle Ages. As the lord of this piece of land, political, economic, and even judicial power are all formulated by this family, but they go up to the upper echelon. The lord has tax and military service obligations, and is bound by a higher level of feudal law.

Moreover, after this meal, Wang Hou made a special oath with these enfeoffment veterans. As the price for accepting enfeoffment, the target of their allegiance for generations must be Wang Hou and his heirs!

It's not that Wang Hou watched too many Western movies, on the contrary, he really didn't look at the West too much, his eyes were always on his ancestor Xi Zhou!

I have to admit that there are too many disadvantages of the enfeoffment system, but I have to admit that this is also the fastest and most cost-effective way to save administrative costs. All dynasties have stopped in 90 years, even if it exceeds 300 years, almost all After being cut in half and entrusted with enfeoffment, the Zhou Dynasty shared the country for 790 years, surpassing all dynasties.

In particular, one thing Wang Hou likes is that during the Western Zhou Dynasty resume, he also hit the Central Plains in the center of Henan from the Qishan Mountains in the Shanxi Pass in the later generations, such a lump of land.

However, the enfeoffment of the king of Zhou spread its branches and leaves. In the Warring States period, no matter how many countries the world was divided into seven countries and eight countries, they were sent to Yanshan, south to the two lakes of later generations, Zhejiang and Jiangsu of Wuyue, all became the land of Huaxia, and they were still in the Central Plains before. The dog Rong, Shan Rong, Baidi Chidi, Dongyi in the east, and Jingmanba people in the south were all annexed by the Chinese ancestors, or they were beaten and fled south to north, or For example, the descendants of Chi You, those Miao Yao Jiuli, and the Qiang people who gradually entered the plateau in the west.

The territory has expanded by an unknown number of times!
Although Wang Hou is a time traveler, even if he wants to be with the tortoise, whoever dies first with Sima Yi will live a hundred years if he dies, but if he dies before he dies, he will divide the lands in Liaodong that do not belong to the Chinese civilization circle in the form of enfeoffment Expand out, and then form a trend in the Central Plains. The powerful clans, the peasants who can't survive, take up arms and go to the north or south to conquer a piece of territory that belongs to them, regardless of whether these territories are still subject to his leadership, Wang Hou, Whether it belongs to the unified Central Plains dynasty or not, it is just his Chinese civilization.

Just like the later generations, the British and European immigrants established the countries of the old America, Canada and South America. Even if they are independent, they are still a civilized family, wearing a pair of pants, and gossip about China at every turn.

It is Wang Hou's dream to take advantage of this era to expand the circle of Chinese civilization, and this dream even surpasses the struggle for hegemony among dynasties.

However, ideals are lofty. In order to realize ideals, the means should be dark. The rule that Wang Hou is about to establish is not an ideal country!

At this stage, Wang Hou still wants to firmly control the Liaohe River Basin in his own hands. The Central Plains Dynasty used the Confucian gentry and landlords as the most basic ruling class in the countryside. Wang Hou used his own army veterans as the grassroots ruling family. Veterans are similar to the knight class in the West, the taxi class in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and then the refugees or prisoners of war who migrated from the Central Plains are the middle class of self-cultivating farmers, who have their own small pieces of land. It also includes those wealthy Han Chinese.

The only thing that is special is the urban residents. While the countryside is ruled by the Baron Viscounty, he also has to build a series of commercial cities in the territory, and use commercial trade to communicate with the independent territories under his command, so that they will not become scattered. .

Wang Hou believes that Xunzi's human nature is inherently evil. He is incapable of creating a world of great harmony in this era. After all, no one is enslaved and exploited at the bottom of society, and he cannot arouse the desire to conquer from ambitious and capable people.

Of course, there is another very important point. Even if the social structure created is quite backward and dark, class barriers are not indestructible, and everyone has room for advancement.

Just like Mu Huali, one of the four heroes under Genghis Khan, who was born as a slave, he was named king by Genghis Khan because of his bravery and intelligence. No matter how low the Mongol army came from, as long as they made meritorious deeds on the battlefield, they would have Opportunity to become a Taiji nobleman!

Therefore, all the Mongolian tribes conquered by Genghis Khan quickly twisted into one rope, and fought against the outside world without fear of death. Khwarazmo even went westward to Baghdad, and even the Khalifa of the Russian Empire, which had been fighting against the Western Crusaders for more than 45 years, was rolled up in the carpet and trampled into a meat paste by the Mongolian army's iron hooves.

Wang Hou's future regime must also learn from the bandit group established by Genghis Khan. Now he will rob Gongsun Yan, conquer the entire territory of the Gongsun family, and then go to Goguryeo, go south to Sanhan, and go west to rob Xianbei. How far to grab!
As for the subordinates who don't want to be serfs or shepherds, no matter what race you are, you will take up weapons and fight for me.

but!The ideal is full, but the reality is still very skinny!Great plans and great achievements are only on paper now, and if you want to realize this ideal, you have to do it bit by bit!After the fealty feast, with the map in hand, these veterans took their family members or old comrades to see the territory with an attitude of carrying out orders. They planned to build up the farm and the viscounty one by one. , It will have to be next spring when the ice and snow melt.

And after sending them away, Wang Hou, the future commander-in-chief of the bandit leader, will have to wait on the leader. After all, Mr. Cao is still his boss now. Even if the wings really harden one day in the future, Mr. Cao will still Isn't he his husband?
Cang Cao, a group of masters who just graduated from Laoshan College, was unlucky. This one was desperately trying to figure out how much food, materials and manpower it would take to build these large and small territories. food.At Lianjiaocheng Port, the two brigades of the Reserve Corps, who had just been transferred back from the front line of Jinzhou, were again transferred to the port tired and vomiting blood, to carry the rations of the Han army going out of the fortress for Wang Hou.

At the beginning of December in the 11th year of Jian'an, more than 20 large Qingzhou ships filled with grain raised their sails high while the masts creaked in the cold, and looked back at the bridgehead Lianjiao City, which is still ugly now, with hope. Turning around suddenly, Wang Hou suddenly sniffed the big snot hanging from his nose, and shouted orders with extraordinary air.

"Serve the leader! Raise the anchor and set off! Achoo!!!"

 Ahhh!The number of chapters is written wrong, and there is no way to change it!
