In addition to promoting and rewarding soldiers, subsidizing martyrs, and conferring a large number of knighthoods...
Fei Chun, who was in charge of the transportation of logistics materials, was granted the title of Duke Baoguo of Jin Dynasty.
Fei Ruhe, who was in charge of the war situation in Hebei Province, was the Duke of Jin Feng Town.
Li Zheng, who took charge of the war in Liaodong, was granted the title of Duke Xiang of Jin Dynasty.
Pang Chunlai led the cabinet, worked hard and made great achievements, and was granted the title of Duke of Liao by the Jin Dynasty.
Li Banghua assisted in the administration with meritorious service and restored the title of Marquis of Jishui.
Xu Ying arranged for careful work and meritorious service, and was granted the title of Marquis of Qianshan in Jin Dynasty.
Lu Xiangsheng, who fought consecutive battles, captured cities and territories, and took the lead in opening up the situation in Liaodong, was awarded the title of Wei Ningbo.
Wang Tingchen, who annihilated the main force of Hauge outside the Great Wall, was granted the title of Liaobo.
Zhang Tieniu, Fei Yinggon, Jiang Liang, Huang Shun, Jiang Dashan, Li Dingguo, Cao Bianjiao and others all received awards.
Even Huang Yao, who collaborated with Fei Yinggon to regain Guizhou last year, although he did not participate in the northern battle this year, was still cleaning up and consolidating the territory of Guizhou and southern Sichuan. However, he was also awarded a reward and was changed from the Marquis of Chengdu to the Marquis of Guizhou.
Although they are both marquises and there is no distinction in rank, one-character marquis is definitely more prestigious than two-character marquis.
The same is true for Zhang Tieniu. He did not perform any extraordinary feats in this battle, but he was able to defend Tianjin effectively, so his title was changed from the title of Marquis of Yizhou to the title of Marquis of Ji.
Li Dingguo got a count, and Cao Bianjiao got a viscount. Anyway, there will be wars in the future, and the title will be gradually improved, so why let them have junior qualifications.
When Wang Hui fought against the Yellow River, he fought bravely and fearlessly, and was awarded the title of Uncle Gangyi by the Jin Dynasty.
Yang Zhenqing, who had repeatedly made extraordinary achievements in Liaodong, was granted the title of baron this time, but it was not a hereditary title.
The titles of most other generals are hereditary and reduced. After three generations, they are reduced by one level. As long as they are not all short-lived ghosts, they are reduced from dukes to civilians, which is enough for their descendants to be famous for two to three hundred years.
Of course, apart from increasing the land limit and granting land in one go, there is no special treatment for the titles of the Datong court.
This year, an inventory was carried out in the south to reclassify land levels. Upper fields, middle fields, and lower fields cannot be changed anymore to prevent the noble class from fishing in troubled waters.
Zhao Han gave more than 40 titles at once and finally stopped searching.
The Duke only granted four titles, which was really generous.
After all, Fei Ruhe is young and can continue to fight. Whenever he is crowned king, he will be transferred back to Nanjing and serve as a central military minister in the Governor's Mansion.
"Your Majesty, please establish Liaodong Province." This is what Pang Chunlai said.
Li Banghua hesitated to speak. Due to Pang Chunlai's face, he wanted to object but did not speak out.
Zhao Han smiled and said: "Mr. Li Ge, please speak frankly."
Li Banghua said: "North Zhili and Liaodong have been severely harmed by the Tatars. Natural disasters and wars have only subsided for many years. I feel that it is too early to establish provinces. We can set up administrative officials, but temporarily place them under the jurisdiction of Shandong. Shaanxi is also under the jurisdiction of Shandong.
So, since Shaanxi is connected to Gansu, Shaanxi and Gansu can be made into one province."
"allow!"
Zhao Han had already thought about this and said: "When the population of North Zhili and Liaodong returns to one million, provinces will be established. By then, North Zhili will be changed to Hebei Province, and Liaodong will be changed to Liaoning Province."
.Shaanxi and Gansu will also wait until the population recovers before they are separated."
This is a policy based on reality. The population is too small to establish a province, and the finances have to support a whole team. It is really unnecessary.
As for Gansu, Ningxia, etc., during the Ming Dynasty, these places were under the jurisdiction of the military department of Shaanxi.
After Tian Younian took office, Song Yingxing had already joined the cabinet as prime minister. He suggested: "We should speed up the immigration from the north and expand the new areas. The population must be enriched, otherwise the border will be unstable."
Li Banghua said: "Although the southern provinces have large populations, they cannot withstand continuous immigration. What's more, the three provinces of Fujian, Guangdong and Zhejiang are still immigrating to Taiwan, Qiongzhou and Luzon. Large-scale immigration in these years not only consumes the court's money and food, but also
Let the southern provinces be depopulated."
Zhao Han said: "It's not that there is a population shortage in the south, but it is certainly not as large as before."
"It can encourage childbirth," Pang Chunlai said. "First, if a man is twenty and a woman is eighteen and unmarried, an additional Dingkou tax will be levied; second, for a period of twenty years, no matter whether it is a boy or a girl, all children who are twelve years old will go to the government
If you report your registration, you can get five taels of silver."
Zhao Han couldn't help but laugh and said: "Marriage between a man and a woman is entirely voluntary, so there is no restriction on them. When you reach the age of twelve, you can be rewarded with one tael of silver when you register for registration. This can not only stimulate fertility, but also allow the people to take the initiative
Twenty years is too long to register your children, so let’s make it fifteen years.”
China under the rule of Zhao Han was much better than the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Historically, the population in the early Qing Dynasty was very bad. The Qing Dynasty officials did not care much about it. They only issued policies to encourage immigrants to reclaim wasteland. When implemented, they completely let it go. In a hundred years, the population was not even high.
It has doubled several times.
Let’s not even talk about Sichuan in the early Qing Dynasty. It was uninhabited for thousands of miles. Let’s talk about Shandong in the early Qing Dynasty.
To what extent was the population shortage in Shandong in the early years of Kangxi? Tenants could eat at the same table as the landlords, but the landlords had to coax the tenants and did not dare to treat them harshly, otherwise there would be no one to help farm the land.
After detailed discussions with the cabinet, Zhao Han finalized the immigration plan for next year.
Sichuan will immigrate at least 100,000 people to Shaanxi by the end of next year. Jiangxi and Hunan will each immigrate 50,000 people to Hebei. Southern Jiangsu and Anhui will each immigrate 30,000 people to Liaoning.
Although Liaoning Province has not yet been formally established, the administrative divisions have been basically finalized, that is, the circle surrounded by the Liao Great Wall. It basically coincides with the territory of Liaoning Province in later generations, except that Jianchang, Jianping, Chaoyang, Beipiao, and Fuxin are missing.
, Zhangwu, Xinmin, and Changtu. Most of these places are now occupied by Mongolian herders.
Li Banghua pointed to the map and said: "The remaining mountains in the eastern part of Yanshan Mountain and the edge of the grassland here. I asked the people in Liaodong, they can all farm. The Mongols here are also half-cultivating and half-grazing. The Great Wall is not strong enough to defend, Liaoning Province
The territory must be expanded beyond the Great Wall. Order the frontline soldiers to quickly conquer these areas. Next year, one-third of the immigrants from Liaodong will move there to cultivate. Han people and Mongolians should be mixed, and intermarriage should be encouraged, supplemented by education.
merit."
What Li Banghua meant was to make the territory of Liaoning Province exactly the same as Liaoning Province hundreds of years later.
This is not a coincidence, but for political and military purposes.
The Mongolians there can be completely assimilated because they have long been part-cultivating and part-grazing. Especially in mountainous areas, there are more Mongolians who make a living by farming than by herding.
As early as the early Ming Dynasty, the residents in those places were actually mainly Han people, and some areas were under the jurisdiction of the Duoyan Sanwei.
After Zhu Di seized the throne, it was impossible for Zhu Yuanzhang to stick to the policy of the kings guarding the border. Coupled with some other reasons, he voluntarily gave up those lands and contracted the border defense in all directions. After the Tumubao Incident, the Mingbao Zong ordered the Ming Dynasty
The majesty was wiped out, so more and more Mongolians moved south, occupying the territory abandoned by Zhu Di.
Zhao Han never thought about killing all the Mongolians and Jurchens, but they had to mix with the Han people and receive school education. Mongolians who rarely or never herded herds, after learning to speak Chinese, had their own Chinese names, which were the same as those of real people.
What's the difference between Han people?
Even in the Ming Dynasty, there were many Chinese Mongolians and Chinese Jurchens in Liaodong.
Pang Chunlai lay on the map and took a closer look: "After these areas are assigned to Liaoning, prefectures and counties should be established. The sooner they are established, the better. If any Mongolian leader dares to resist, then troops will be sent to capture and kill him! Also, according to Wang Tingchen
Report that there are many Han slaves among these Mongolian tribes. All Han slaves will be released as civilians, and wherever they can farm, they will be given fields to the Han people. Where they cannot farm, they will be given pasture!"
It is indeed better to get it done as soon as possible, because the strength of these Mongolian tribes was greatly damaged by the war with the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
The Mongols who defected and dedicated the city in Liaoyang were all from that area of the Mongolian tribe. Their dedication to the city was true, but they had committed many crimes by robbing and killing Han people in the past, so there was no need to indulge in everything.
Not convinced?
Then you start a rebellion!
Li Banghua said: "In another five years, we will continue to immigrate to enrich the population and consolidate the imperial rule in Liaoning. At that time, we can send troops northward to completely conquer the Harqin and Horqin Mongolia."
In particular, one-third of the territory of the Karaqin Mongolia was included in the territory of Liaoning, so they did not dare to have any objections.
The Manchu Qing's rule over Mongolia was divided into three types: Eight Banner Mongolia, Inner Mongolia and Outer Mongolia. The Mongolian pastures were divided into pieces, allowing the various Mongolian ministries to check and balance each other, and allowing vested interest groups to suppress those who were not.
.
This approach was very effective when the Manchu army was strong, but many Mongols accumulated resentment.
In this battle, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties were defeated, and conflicts immediately broke out.
The Datong court directly established state counties. At least in arable areas, it was very useful to set up state counties. There was no need to follow the Manchu style.
As for the grasslands further north, we have to think of another way, maybe we can learn from the Manchus.
The tenth month of the lunar calendar.
The wheat in Liaodong has been harvested and put into warehouses, and a lot of it was distributed to the people, and a lot of military rations were left.
The distribution of land according to registered residence in Liaodong has been basically completed. Firstly, the population is small, so it is easier to count; secondly, people actively register and can allocate land after having a household registration.
Including Jurchens and Mongolians who are not classified as prisoners of war, Liaoning has a total population of 540,000 (over the age of 12). There are also more than 30,000 Jurchens and Mongolians who are classified as prisoners of war and their family members, and cannot be officially registered for the time being.
They were all sent to the mountains of Northeast China to mine. They could do labor camps to atone for their sins. If they were lucky, if they were still alive after working for five years, they could go to the government to apply for household registration and be allocated land.
There are also some slave slaves who have committed the most heinous crimes and are treated the same as prisoners of war. The rest of the slaves can be registered as citizens after one year of mining.
The above does not include the Mongolian tribes outside the Great Wall, otherwise the population of Liaoning should be more than 600,000.
By insisting on immigrating between 50,000 and 60,000 people every year, Liaoning's population will exceed one million in less than ten years, and by then it will be officially established as a province.
At this time, Li Zicheng's letter of surrender was sent to Nanjing: first, he requested that the imperial title be removed, and he was willing to unite the whole province of Shanxi to the Datong court; second, he requested that he be granted the title of King of Yinshan, and he was willing to lead his troops to the north of Yinshan to serve as a base for the Han family.
Open up the grassland territory; third, request the release of captured Dashun generals such as Li Guo and Gao Yigong.
(Today’s family gathering, only one update, sorry.)
