After breakfast, Zhu Yuanzhang and everyone finished the morning training of the Wolf Breaking Army.

What Zhu Shu and Zhu Hui still made Zhu Yuanzhang very satisfied.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his big hand and directly gave Zhu Shu and Zhu Hui a ten-day vacation.

And after Zhu Yuanzhang himself sorted out the government affairs for half a year, he began to solve the problem of General Chen Han.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang took Jiangzhou, he won a huge victory.

But the trouble that brought Zhu Yuanzhang made Zhu Yuanzhang almost burned.

Now Zhu Yuanzhang’s generals, two percent of the battles will be Chen Han’s generals.

Among the soldiers, more than thirty percent of the soldiers were Chen Han’s surrenders.

Can they easily betray Chen Youshu and surrender to Zhu Yuanzhang, but they can’t easily betray Zhu Yuanzhang and surrender to others?

And those people who originally belonged to Chen Han, can they really agree with Zhu Yuanzhang’s rule?

For this reason, Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Ji, Song Lian, Yang Xian, Hu Weiyong, Gui Yanliang and other great Confucians, citing scriptures and classics, quarreled and shouted for a long time, and did not argue with any good strategies.

Zhu Yuanzhang’s mood became even worse.

Everyone kept arguing until Zhu Biao and Zhu Shu Zhu Hui were completely and happily rested for ten days.

Until the end of Zhu Biao’s ten-day holiday.

Zhu Yuanzhang finally made a decision and set a lot of new policies.

Let’s start with the military.

Zhu Yuanzhang transferred the most prestigious generals to Zhongshu Province to preside over the national military reform.

Shao Rong was the political affairs of Pingzhang of Zhongshu Province, Xu Da was the right cheng of Zhongshu Province, Tang He was the left cheng of Zhongshu, Chang Yuchun participated in politics for Zhongshu Province, and Deng Yu participated in politics for Zhongshu Province.

These five people were responsible for the mobilization and arrangement of the army throughout the country, so that the total army of nearly 300,000 people in Wu State was condensed, like an arm.

Let’s talk about civil affairs.

First of all, the salt law was established to tax the purchase and sale of salt in the territory, twenty taxes one.

Secondly, the establishment of tea law, Wu country is the main production area of tea. Merchants had to pay money to receive tea in the county where the tea was produced before they were allowed to trade in Wu.

Finally, the Baoyuan Bureau was set up to mint the treasure money of the Great and Zhongtong, which was parallel to the copper coins of previous generations.

But when Zhu Biao rested and went to find Zhu Yuanzhang, he found that Zhu Yuanzhang was not much happier, and he was still sitting at the table with a sad face.

“Dad, isn’t everything settled? Why do you still look frowning? ”

“Biao’er is coming?”

Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Biao coming, with a little smile on his face.

“Rest?”

“My son is resting.”

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he pointed to the chair beside him and motioned for Zhu Biao to sit down.

After Zhu Biao sat down, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke.

“In fact, whether it is military reform or the previous civil affairs reform, it is just a heavy burden for us, and it is not tricky.”

“Biao’er, do you know what is the most troublesome thing for us?”

Faced with Zhu Yuanzhang’s question, Zhu Biao thought for a while before answering.

“It’s a land issue.”

Land was the lifeblood of the peasantry, and at the same time, it was also the foundation of the emperor.

With land, there is grain, there is grain to recruit troops, if there are soldiers, you can grab territory, and if you have more territory, you are the emperor. This is a big idea that everyone can understand.

Everyone will talk about the big principle, and it is not so easy to really use this big principle.

For example, now, after years of conquest, on the one hand, the fields are deserted.

On the other hand, there are displaced people. Then, recruiting displaced people to reclaim the famine has become a top priority.

There is a question here: who is the displaced person who has opened up the wasteland? This field has its original owner! If this original owner returns and the displaced people want to return the land, then who is willing to open up the land? If the land is not returned, how will those original owners who fled accept it? This land is not stolen and robbed, it is impossible to say from the truth.

Not only that, but what do the propertied people under Chen Youshu and Zhang Shicheng think? Isn’t Zhu Yuanzhang equivalent to offending the gentry of the world?

For another example, how to deal with the large landlords in the territory of Wu Kingdom, or the powerful and powerful?

These people hide a lot of land, what should they do?

If they are strict, they may directly rebel, and even secretly communicate with Chen Youshu and Zhang Shicheng. Loose for them, there are not enough taxes, and they cannot raise troops for war.

The last and most crucial one, the treatment of Zhu Yuanzhang’s soldiers is indeed too low!

They have military salaries, but if they die, Zhu Yuanzhang will not care about their wives and children.

And the Wolf Breaking Army is only not afraid of life and death, isn’t it that Zhu Biao assured them that he would also raise their children when they died, giving them logistical support?

“Biao’er really knows us best!”

Zhu Yuanzhang was immediately happy.

“Biao’er, is there any way you can solve the land problem and maintain the military spirit?”

After hearing that Chen Youcheng arrived in Wuchang, he began to improve the treatment of soldiers.

Now Zhu Yuanzhang’s army is also unstable.

These are the two issues that Zhu Yuanzhang is most worried about, one is land, and the other is the military heart.

When Zhu Biao heard this, he seriously thought about it.

“Father, there are only two aspects of the land issue now.”

“First, encourage the displaced people to open up the land, is the land cleared by the displaced people or the original owner? This problem is best solved. We can guide the displaced people to clear the land. The land cleared by the displaced persons should not only belong to them, but should also be exempt from any taxes for three years. As for the original owner, a deadline can be established, such as five years. From now on, five years later, if the original owner comes back to ask for wasteland, even if there is a title deed, the government will not recognize it. The original owner will come back within five years… Wouldn’t it be enough to re-zone him a wasteland and let him clear the wasteland? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Zhu Biao’s words, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

“Okay, Wu’er is smart!”

Zhu Biao’s method solves the problem of who the land is, and can also vigorously promote the people’s enthusiasm for land reclamation.

As long as you open up the land, the land is yours, and the state exempts you from taxes for three years.

“Second, Haoqiang hides a large amount of land and population, we can slowly figure it out, we don’t do not check its land now, but directly negotiate with Haoqiang the amount of tax to be paid every year.” In addition, Hao Qiang is responsible for all the expenses of the local post station. When the officers and soldiers passed near where Hao Qiang was, Hao Qiang had to deliver enough food and grass and civilians to the army. ”

“When your father’s great business is completed, the son will also have a way for them to obediently hand over the land.”

“Good! All right! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Zhu Biao’s words and applauded one after another, he faintly had this idea in his heart, but it had not yet taken shape.

Now that he was said by Zhu Biao, he only felt that Zhu Biao had a spiritual rhino with himself.

“As for the issue of military heart, does my father know why the Wolf Breaking Army would rather die than retreat, and the fear of military rules is more than death?”

Zhu Biao thought about it and still raised this question.

What Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao wanted to do, it was not enough to rely on the 5,000 Broken Wolf Army, and Zhu Biao had to raise the fighting level of the entire army.
