Wang Yue did not stay any longer, and then prepared to set off and return...

This time he was not ready to complete the unification.

There is not enough time at all.

He didn't know that the Jurchens could go south at any time, and the time he left in the south was only two months at most. Not to mention solving the places like Guangdong, Guangxi and Sichuan, he didn't even have time to take down Jiangxi. He just came to arrest the great painter and went back to trial. Now that this has been completed, of course he had to go back to fight the Jurchens as soon as possible. As for the next battle in the south...

That's what my subordinates do.

In fact, there is no need to be too anxious. He is preparing to suspend the situation and maintain the current situation for a while, because judging from the current situation, the south has not yet fallen.

Or it is not enough publicity.

From the fact that Chen Go's soldiers could still follow him to resist stubbornly on the battlefield, we can see that most of the people in the south at that time did not know what Wang Yue did in the north. Otherwise, no matter how strong Chen Go's personal ability was, it would be useless. After all, he was a weak old man. His performance was indeed surprising, but the key was that those soldiers did not regard the ever-winning army as liberators. Otherwise, let alone Chen Go, even if it were Yue Fei, he would not be able to stop the soldiers' rebellion.

This is actually very normal.

This era of information transmission is very primitive. It is impossible to let the people of the south know about the changes in the north in less than two years so far. Not to mention in such an era, even if there is already a primary media system in eight hundred years, it will take twenty years and a propaganda team like the Long March to truly form a destructive and destructive one.

In fact, twenty years are not enough, and there are still a lot of unknowns during the War of Liberation.

He needs to continue to promote.

For internal wars like this, true bloody battles of force are always the last option.

The ideal way is to promote, promote, and then promote until everyone knows his policies, and then gently push them.

Then it will naturally fall down.

This method has the least collateral damage. For Wang Yue, it is no surprise that he will unify the world. It is probably his enemies who know it, but how to unify the world while avoiding death as much as possible is the most important thing. Every population of this era is precious. Large-scale wars can indeed solve the problem within two or three years, but this process will cause a large number of deaths, and this death does not simply refer to the killing.

The famine caused by war destroying agriculture, the plague caused by more deaths, and the lack of ability to deal with disasters after the collapse of order will make people lose their lives sharply in this process.

This is not in Liaodong.

It is a pity to die on either side of this war.

Since he already has an absolute advantage, why not take the approach of smaller losses and spend a few more years in some more gentler and minimal collateral losses?

Anyway, I'm not afraid of my opponent turning around.

They no longer have the ability to turn over, and now they just grit their teeth and hold on.

so……

"Lu Tixing."

Wang Yue looked at the civil servant in front of him.

The latter sat there silently looking at the picture of the Ming Wang Pingzi hanging behind him. The five large characters like silver hooks and iron strokes of the great painter's pen were so eye-catching.

This is the execution of Lu Zai from Liangzhe.

Hangzhou is the road system of Liangzhe Road, and Zhu Jie also served as the Liangzhe Pacifier. After he was captured alive and executed in the city, the Liangzhe official who fled to the south bank of Qiantang River was headed by Lu Zai, and he organized a defense line with Yuezhou as the core to prepare to resist his southward journey.

However, Wang Yue did not go south, but instead ordered him to come with the hand edict of the great painter.

Lu Zai came very happily.

I guess he also knew that Wang Yue would not kill him.

"I heard that Lu Tixing's youngest son is only two years old, so why are you not afraid of your death and your mother left? "

Wang Yue said with a teacup.

Well, his youngest son is actually Lu You, this is Lu You's father, so don't think that Lu You's old age is a poor man. He is a genuine family, a landlord, and has been a soldier for generations. His grandfather, the Left Secretary of the Shangshu, and the Left Secretary of the Shangshu after Yuanfeng's restructuring, was lower than the Prime Minister. Among the three provinces, the chief and deputy prime ministers served as the Minister of the Secretariat, and the left and right servants in the Shangshu Province were also part-time jobs in the prime minister, but the actual person in charge was the Left Secretary, who was a real important minister, the center of the court, one of the consuls, and was above the Six Ministers, and was the same as the Privy Council, and a second-rank official.

And his father is this Lu Zai.

Before Nandu, he was the deputy envoy of the Northwest Road Transportation of Jingxi Road. He fled south together during the escape tide of southern officials in the north, and was appointed by the great painter as the senator of Liangzhe.

His family is from Yuezhou. One of the main families in the Song Dynasty, Yuezhou was headed by the Lu family.

"If the king succeeds, I'm afraid there are not many orphans and widows in the world, and there are not many family members of the government."

Lu Zai sneered.

"Lu Qing is careful!"

The great painter in handcuffs shouted.

His handcuffs were opened in Yue Fei, so even if Wang Yue asked to open them, Yue Fei would continue to wear them if he didn't open them. Yue Fei's attitude towards him has become increasingly disrespectful to him recently. He rarely opens them for him in daily life. Anyway, it is just a symbolic one, not much weight at all, and the chain is very long, which is enough for him to do daily activities.

Wang Yue raised his hand and signaled that he didn't mind, and the great painter quickly smiled gently.

"How could the family cry all the way?

Indeed, I admit that my reforms will harm some people, and even cause some orphans and widows, but the people who benefit a hundred times the same as these people. The landlords did lose most of their land, but if they did not resist, their wealth could be retained, and they could even be distributed to the land according to their population. All they lost was the rights of the people.

But they are still rich people.

I just don't allow them to use land rent to exploit the poor, and step on the poor's bodies and clothes and food, but I don't allow them to earn in other ways.

They can do business, they can mine, and they can make wine. Although they are still open to those major cities, they are just for the convenience of management. For places like Liangzhe, Hangzhou, Yuezhou, Mingzhou, and Xiuzhou are all available. They can do whatever they want in these cities, they can smel iron, make wine, and even tea has been opened. I closed a small door for them, but I opened a big door for them. If they accept it, then they can continue to have a good time.

But they didn't accept it, so they could only cry.

How could the family cry all the way?

I will not continue to make more poor people cry in order to take care of a few fainted gentry.

Orphan and widowed mother?

Haven’t you filled the roadside gullies like those famine-fighting people?”

Wang Yue said.

"Where is right or wrong?"

Lu Zai said.

He already understood that Wang Yue asked him to come and gave an ultimatum, and not just to Liangzhe, but to the entire Jiangnan gentry.

Wang Yue must divide the land.

But those who surrendered could preserve their property, and they used the opening of the official industries in the past to compensate these gentry. They handed over the land, but could turn to industry and commerce, and he completely opened the door of industry and commerce that was originally only half-open to them.

As for not surrendering, there is only a dead end.

"Right and wrong? Is it right to charge 60% or 70% of the rent?"

Wang Yue said.

"Are all gentry like this? Many people have built bridges and roads to benefit one area, and many people have helped the hungry people in the time of disasters and famine. Are all fish and meat in the countryside? The king blames all gentry for being rich and unkind among the gentry. Is this the right thing?"

Lu Zai said.

"I just tried Zhu Xie in public. Look at this thick book, which is all his crimes. So, will Lu Tixing dare to gamble with me? Let us arrest all the fifth-class households in a county and put them on the public trial stage, so that local people can report their crimes. If more than half of them are innocent, Wang will lose. I will stop dividing the land in this county. If more than half are guilty, then we don't need to say more. You can disband the army immediately and accept my army's entry. So do you dare?"

Wang Yue said.

Lu Zai shut up immediately.

Who dares to play this gambling game? It is at least a death sentence. It is also a top local family. It is still clear what the situation is. If you play like this, those poor people can dig out all the evil deeds of their ancestors. Then they will not only die, but also die indestructible.

This move is very vicious.

It can almost be said that no gentry can withstand it.

"Look, you don't even believe them yourself!

But I am not interested in getting involved with you now. The Jurchen army has gone south and I have to deal with them. So I will order all troops to stop marching and maintain the current control area. During my journey north to deal with the Jurchen, you can think carefully about how to choose. When I come back, you must make a reply. Accept my reform plan, and then your wealth can be retained. I will completely open up the official industries of the prefecture city, open up the original bans such as private mining, and not accepting it means starting a war again.

Of course, you can also take advantage of my chance to go north to counterattack, echoing the Jurchens from north to south, but that is a crime of treason, and I will not show mercy for the crime of treason.

I also told other places for me.

The conditions I give you are the same.

Including those from Zhenjiang and even Zhao Shu, as long as you accept my reform plan, you can all be pardoned, otherwise it will be war.”

Wang Yue said.

"The Jurchens went south?"

Lu Zai looked at him in confusion.

"Yes, then do you want to take advantage of this opportunity? After I went north, there was only one brigade of the two prefectures in Hangzhou and Xiu. In addition, the original imperial camp after 20,000 was reorganized, the actual defense was less than 30,000. Even the navy will return with me. You have the opportunity to recapture the two prefectures in Hangzhou and Xiu."

Wang Yue said with a smile.

"The Lu family in Shanyin is not yet in rank with the Hulu, but the lower officials just didn't expect the king to be so honest."

Lu Zai said arrogantly.

"Then you missed the best opportunity."

Wang Yue said.
Chapter completed!
