"Your Majesty, do you really want to relocate the people of Weibo?" Yanying asked and changed to the Fenfang Palace in Shangyang City. Song Le, the minister of Zhongshu, asked with a serious face.
"My decision has been made," Shao Shude said with certainty.
He knew very well that Song Le was not against him, but wanted to confirm his ideas again, because this was a very important national policy that involved all aspects and could not be careless.
What's more, does the matter only stop at Wei Bo? Not necessarily.
"I understand." Song Le sat on a chair and said, "But your Majesty, do you know that in the world, there are gains and losses?"
"Song Qing, it's okay to talk." Shao Shude stretched out his hand to indicate for him to continue.
"Immigration costs are not small. If there are only 10,000 households, each place can maintain it. With 20,000 households, it will be difficult to meet the needs." Song Le said: "If there are five people in a household, it will require 20 grains a year.
After immigrating, you need to give enough food rations in the first year, reduce it in the second year, and ease it in the third year. Just give a small amount. I sent someone to look through the records of Heyang, and found out that a common family started from it.
By that time, they can be self-sufficient. Including rations and seeds, it will cost about one hundred dendrobes. If there are 10,000 households a year, the annual cost will be more than three hundred thousand dendrobes. If there is a real shortage, immigrants can collect wild vegetables, fruits and vegetables, or they can
It can be used as part of the food supply, but twenty-five hu of dendrobium a year is the minimum."
Shao Shude listened quietly.
Song Le has governed many places, such as Guanbei, Heyang and other places. He has dealt with front-line immigration affairs for a long time and has a strong say in this matter. In other words, he is an expert and his words have great reference value.
"Chen Xi's town in Heyang and Menghuai Prefecture can be said to have been developed by immigrants." Song Le continued: "At that time, the people in Huazhou mainly relied on relief from the river, and the Tibetan people relied on the food gifts they received from the army to survive the most difficult times.
In the first two years of the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty also immigrated to Xiangyang with Deng and Deng in the Tang Dynasty. The amount spent should be the same, which is very different. If His Majesty wants to relocate the people of Weibo, he must make a good estimate of the bearing capacity of the local states and counties. Not only
Not only the cost of immigration, but also the cost of garrisoning.”
"How many people are there in Xiangzhou now?" Shao Shude turned to ask Pei Shu, the Minister of Household Affairs.
"Your Majesty, the seven counties in Xiangzhou have experienced wars for a long time and were transferred to various parties. When Zhao Kuangning moved to the town,..." Pei Shu cleared his throat and said.
"Just tell me how many people there are." Shao Shude interrupted.
"In the first year of Jianji, there were more than 41,200 households and more than 209,000 people." Pei Shu replied.
Of course, preparations must be made in advance for such a high-level inquiry meeting. In fact, some junior officials from the Ministry of Revenue also participated in order to prepare for the sage's inquiries.
"I have been immigrating for several years, but there are still only such a few people?" Shao Shude sighed and said: "Okay, no need to explain more. Zhe Zongben was fighting in the south, and it is normal that the household registration is not abundant. Two hundred thousand people, that's okay
It is enough to resettle 10,000 households. No, part of the food and grass must be allocated to support Wei Sheng's army in the war, and the people have to perform corvee labor. Five thousand households are enough to support the sky. What does Song Qing think?"
"Your Majesty, this is what I want to say." Song Le replied: "Xiangzhou could have accommodated 10,000 households of immigrants, but the war in the east of the Han Dynasty continued and the consumption was huge, so it could only accommodate 5,000 households. If the Han Dynasty stopped,
The Eastern War——"
"This matter can be discussed later," Shao Shude said.
"Where are Tang and Deng Sui Sanzhou?" he asked again.
"Deng and Deng followed three prefectures and seventeen counties, and now there are more than 93,200 households and more than 420,400 people." Pei Shu replied: "In the past five years, a large number of people from Guanxi and Han Dynasties have flowed in, and they have also effectively saved the families of soldiers, so the growth is extremely rapid. This is
The three prefectures also need to support Han Dong's war expenses, roads need to be built in the town, and the newly moved Xiangwei people will not be able to be completely self-sufficient until next year. It may be difficult to move the people of Weibo here."
It's the war in Handong again! Shao Shude is helpless.
But to be honest, he didn't really want to move the Wei people to Tang and Deng. He had already gone there so many times. Although they were all family members of the military service, and everyone in Weibo shouted for beatings, they were not his basic base after all, and it would take time to digest.
Yes, it is really not appropriate to send people to that frontier in the short term. Moreover, it seems that there is no spare capacity unless the war in Handong stops and the army goes north to Luoyang to feed.
"Can we allocate grain and grass from Henan Road?" Shao Shude asked again.
"If your majesty can recuperate and recuperate after capturing the entire territory of Weibo," Song Le said, "the war in Weibo has been going on for a long time. More than 100,000 soldiers are fighting endlessly, and 600,000 people are transferring supplies, which consumes a lot of money. Henan will be restored.
Three years later, I just breathed a sigh of relief and the balance is not much."
Shao Shude thought about it secretly and felt that the situation was not as serious as Song Le said. His words were exaggerated. The core was to persuade him not to fight in other ways. But it was not unreasonable at all. After thinking about it, he said: "Today
At the end of the year, we will focus on dealing with the affairs of Wei Bo. After capturing Bozhou and recovering scattered military towns and counties, we will retreat and rest. Henan Road may be able to recruit concubines, grain and grass and transfer them to Xiangyang. What does Song Qing think?"
"Your Majesty is wise," Song Le praised.
"Your Majesty, I think that the people of Weibo can be relocated to Xiangyang, but it should not be too many. Five thousand households a year is enough." Chen Cheng, the assistant minister of Zhongshu, said: "Ezhou is located on an important thoroughfare, but it has been deserted for many years. Maybe it can be used."
"Is Du Hong here?" Shao Shude shouted.
"Your Majesty is here." Du Hong, the Privy Councilor of the Beiya Privy Council, immediately came out of the queue and responded.
"I heard that when Du Qing was in charge of Hubei, he searched for hidden households and recruited refugees. The land of seven counties was peaceful, and the number of household registrations reached nearly 100,000." Shao Shude said: "From your perspective, it is possible for northerners to adapt to the water town of Zeguo?"
"Your Majesty, the seven counties of Ezhou had nearly 20,000 households and more than 84,000 people in the eighth year of Tianbao. During the Dashun period of the former Tang Dynasty, despite the war, the number of households had reached 100,000. Most of these 100,000 people were from Henan.
The original people of Ezhou——" At this point, Du Hong sighed and said: "They have all been harmed by the Chao and Cai thieves."
"How many people are there in Yuezhou?"
"The five counties in Yuezhou are under the control of the Deng brothers. I don't know the truth." Although Du Hong is the governor of Eyue, he is actually the leader of the alliance. He did not lie, he really didn't know.
"I estimate that there are still 50,000 to 60,000 people." Du Hong added: "When Deng Jinsi was in charge, he vigorously searched for hidden households, conquered water bandits and river bandits, and compiled barbarian households. The household registration was restored, but it should not be
It will be more than 60,000."
Shao Shude laughed dumbly.
Deng Jinsi was originally a bandit, but after he became the governor, he vigorously suppressed bandits. This is really the bottom determines the head. Moreover, the bandits he suppressed may not be real bandits. In troubled times, many people formed strongholds to protect themselves, and the court had no choice.
Those who controlled these manpower were unable to obtain household registration. Deng Jinsi wiped them out and indeed gained a lot of people.
However, the populations of Hubei and Yue are really outrageous.
During the Ming Dynasty in later generations, Huguang had a reputation for being well-known all over the world. Even though it has not yet been effectively developed, the area from Wuhan to Yueyang has a population of only 100,000. This is a bit fake - of course it may not be fake, editor
It is true that the household population is only over 100,000, but it is also true that there are no good statistics on the refugees.
The imperial court's control in the south was really problematic.
Zhe Zongben settled his family in Ezhou, and had no interest in local government affairs. He has not even checked his household registration and land area, which is actually a bit derelict in his duties.
"I once promised Zhao Kuangning to attack and destroy the Deng clan in Yuezhou." Shao Shude said: "Forget it, the war in Eastern Han Dynasty is suspended. I ordered Zhe Zongben to return to Ezhou, take a short rest, and then attack Yuezhou. Wei Bo's side,
The armies were rotated and kept calm. After the summer harvest in Henan, the masters were recruited to allocate grain and grass to be shipped to Hubei Road."
Hubei Province was once the first to make an argument when promoting administrative reform, but it has not yet completed preparations, and its actions are indeed slow.
"Zhongshu is drafting an edict. I want to establish Hubei Province, which will temporarily govern the seven states of E, Yue, Ying, Fu, An, Huang, and Qi, and govern Ezhou." Shao Shude said: "Ren Qiang Quansheng will be the governor of Hubei Province.
I am in control of the overall situation. I will serve as the commander of the capital from ancient times and form soldiers from all states."
Qiang Quansheng used to be the Military Envoy. After Li Yanling left office, he managed the Military Envoy Yamen well.
In front of scholars, he is a warrior. Among warriors, he is a scholar. He is also a veteran of Yuan Cong. Although his ability is average, he is more loyal than anything else. He is the right one to serve as the governor of Hubei Province.
In ancient times, Zhe Cong was a member of the Zhe family. He was the former governor of Dengzhou and now the governor of Huangzhou. His military ability was actually very good, and he repeatedly made meritorious deeds under Zhe Zong. But success also destroyed the family, and failure also destroyed the family. From ancient times to the present, Zhe Cong was a member of the Zhe family.
If you don't jump out of the small pond of Zhejiajun, even if you have great ability, it will be delayed.
But don't think he is stupid.
Many people have vaguely guessed that Zhe has been keeping an eye on the Weisheng Army since ancient times. This army has been fighting for many years and currently has 27,000 infantry and cavalry, which is actually a lot of money. He may be hoping that Zhe Zongben will
After his death, he was able to take over as the envoy of the Wei Sheng Army and control this army.
Shao Shude has received several small reports, and he knows his little thoughts clearly.
This time, letting Zhe Chonggu serve as the commander of the Hubei Province was an appointment that shattered his dream. The meaning of the blow was very obvious: don't think about what you have and don't have, and just shine in your new position, then you are still yourselves.
People can still be trusted.
Officials from the Zhongshu Provincial Department immediately began to draft the decree, which was reviewed by the provincial officials on the spot. Shao Shude made comments and then sent it out. It took less than half an hour, which was extremely efficient.
Yan Yingwen was really happy with this kind of high-level meeting that convened the heads of major departments and the officials involved. However, this kind of organization similar to the Military Aircraft Department is illegal and a serious violation of the prime minister's power. It cannot be more
Open, it cannot be permanent. Shao Shude has no interest in permanent establishment. The people are too tired, too much power has been taken over, there are too many memorials that need to be reviewed, and the decisions made may not be in line with the actual situation. After all, you are not a professional, grasp the general direction
That’s it.
"Unknowingly, the topic of discussion was completely sidetracked." Shao Shude put down his brush and said with a smile: "I have decided to immigrate 30,000 households to Hubei Province, of which 20,000 households are from Weibo Prefectures and 10,000 households are from Guanxi. Everyone
What do you think?"
"Your Majesty, after the Deng clan in Yuezhou is defeated, the Weisheng Army may be transferred northward and a Forbidden Army stationed southward." Chen Cheng added: "The Privy Council has been fighting for the country for many years, and it is time to return to Luoyang to live a life of leisure and wealth.
Already."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at him with side eyes, but Chen Cheng didn't realize it at all.
"Yes." Shao Shude said: "The Privy Council will discuss this matter and report it to me."
This is the final word.
The saints all agreed, and they had nothing to say, so they all said: "Your Majesty is wise."
"Let's just come here." Shao Shude said: "We will continue to discuss things in the afternoon. Anton Mansion and Qingtang are more difficult, so we need to think about it in the long term."
