The effect of attacking the local tyrants and dividing the land was extremely good. In just three months, the attitude of the Korean people towards Liangshan had changed from hostility to support.
In countless cities and villages in Goryeo, large portraits of Wu Dong are hung, with words such as "Great Leader", "Red Sun", "Our Dear Father" written underneath.
In March, the busy farming season has begun, but a group of Liangshan soldiers still came to various villages to do propaganda work. This time they mainly talked about Liangshan's tax policy. Liangshan's grain tax is only 10, and when encountering droughts and floods, it is
All food taxes will be reduced or exempted.
Under such a policy, the Korean people welcomed Liangshan's arrival more and more, and supported Liangshan more and more.
The only people who are not welcome in Liangshan are the landlords and rich people, but these landlords and rich people have all been overthrown. As long as the family is rich, no matter whether you have done bad things or not, all have been overthrown, and all their properties have been given to those
Poor and lower-middle peasants. Their number accounts for a very small proportion of the total population of Goryeo. Even if they hate Liangshan, there is nothing they can do.
"Brothers and sisters, under the leadership of the great leader, the Red Sun, our Korea has become a red Korea! We have land, we have property, and we only use 10% of the grain tax every year. From now on
We can all live a happy and healthy life! However, we still face threats! Those landlord bullies may stand up at any time and take back our land and property! So we must form our own army and unite closely with the great leader
In front of us, fight these landlords and bullies to the end!"
In early March, Liangshan suddenly started such propaganda.
"Yes, those landlords still have their own armed forces. It is said that they are in the mountains everywhere! These reactionaries, they attack the Liangshan army, attack our liberators and patron saints! So we must set up an army to protect ourselves." Below.
There is a public opinion.
"Do you want to join the army? In order to prevent the landlord bullies from retaking our property and land, I am willing to join the army." Someone said loudly.
Even though they had defeated those landlord bullies, in only three months, the poor and lower-middle peasants still had a strong fear of those landlord bullies. Therefore, under Liangshan's call, they were very active in joining the army.
, eager to join the army and defend the "revolutionary achievements".
So, from the March period, Goryeo began a vigorous recruitment campaign. Because it was "the red Goryeo founded by the red sun to protect the great leader," this Goryeo army was named the "Red Guards." 3∴
35686688
In just one month, the number of Red Guards reached 100,000.
These Red Guards are extremely determined in their thinking. They have to carry out the so-called "remembering the bitter and thinking of the sweet" activities every night, recalling the sufferings of the past and being grateful for the sweet life brought by the great leader. However, they have not yet undergone formal training.
Therefore, the combat effectiveness is extremely limited.
The Koryo Legion has sent officers to train these Red Guards, hoping that one day these Red Guards will be able to go to the battlefield and contribute to Liangshan.
In just three or four months, Goryeo has undergone earth-shaking changes. Although some of the Goryeo people in the past were bloody, most of them were as insensitive as the Song people. Now, almost everyone in Goryeo is immersed in a kind of fanaticism.
Emotionally, everyone is striving for the "bright future" described by the great leader.
In that "bright future", everyone will have food to eat, everyone will have clothes to wear, there will be no poverty, no hunger, no war, no death, and the widowed, widowed, lonely, old and weak will all be supported. It will be like heaven.
It was the season of warm weather, and Wu Dong took Li Gang to inspect various places to see the conditions in various places.
Wu Dong was warmly welcomed by the Korean people wherever he went. Everyone who could see Wu Dong's face had tears in their eyes. It was simply unbelievable.
"Grand Governor, in just four months, Goryeo has turned into this! If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, if you had told me this before the war, I definitely wouldn't have believed it!" Li Gang exclaimed.
"Because no one in the past dynasties has adopted our policy, we were able to quickly win the hearts and minds of the people of Goryeo and transform from invaders to liberators," Wu Dong said.
Throughout the dynasties, the rulers relied on the landlords and gentry, so those rulers would never allow the poor and lower-middle peasants to overthrow the landlords and gentry. Because if the landlords and gentry were overthrown, the foundation of their rule would also be overthrown. Even those who rebelled
They may have relied on the poor people at first, but when they actually came to power and became emperor, they would also rely on the landlords and gentry. For example, Wu Dong had already become the ruler of Goryeo, but he never led the poor and lower-middle peasants to defeat the landlords and gentry.
Therefore, Wu Dong immediately won the support of the vast majority of Korean people. Coupled with Liangshan's strong propaganda ability, Wu Dong quickly became the "great leader", "red sun" and "father of the Korean people". Just like in later generations.
The great figures are the same, but one is at home and the other is abroad.
"Grand Governor, 100,000 Red Guards is not a small number. We should control it well," Li Gang said.
"This is natural. I have decided to let these Red Guards go to the north in the second half of the year at the latest to have a good relationship with the real woman.
"Ah! But in that case, the Red Guards have not undergone long-term training, so they will definitely not be a match for the real woman, and they will definitely suffer heavy casualties by then." Li Gang said hurriedly.
"It doesn't matter if there are heavy casualties, it just gives us an excuse to publicize." Wu Dong said.
"An excuse for publicity?" Li Gang was a little confused.
"The real woman is threatening the red Korea. Every Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje person should take up arms and fight against the real woman to protect the red Korea." Wu Dong said lightly.
"This... this... the Governor is really a god!" Li Gang had to be convinced.
"When that time comes, the Korean people will consciously be united with us and fight with us against Real Person Nv. The more casualties the Red Guards have, the greater their hatred towards Zhenren Nv will be, and hatred is the most powerful thing in the world.
One of the weapons." Wu Dong said.
"Hey, Commander-in-Chief, aren't we being too cruel to the Korean people by doing this?" Li Gang finally sighed.
"There is nothing that can be done about it. The weak have always preyed on the strong, and there is no mercy. Especially we Han people are not qualified to pity others now. If we pity them, who will pity us? Will we wait until the foreigners completely occupy the Central Plains?
When the earth is destroyed, will we come again to beg foreigners to have mercy on us?" Wu Dong said.
In order to realize the complete rise of the Chinese nation, sometimes some cold and unnecessary means are also necessary. Governing a country has always been more than relying on kindness. Today, Wu Dong vowed to repay the favor in the future by taking advantage of the Korean people.
Of the Koreans.
Policies such as the current policy of cracking down on local tyrants, allocating land, etc. are actually of great benefit to the economic development of Goryeo. After farmers have obtained land, their enthusiasm for growing grain will definitely be greatly improved. In addition, with the reduction of grain taxes, Goryeo should not be able to do so in the future.
Will people starve to death again? This alone has benefited so many Koreans!
The two of them inspected various places in Goryeo and were extremely happy to see the Goryeo people from all over the country sincerely welcome Liangshan. It seems that in a short period of time, Goryeo has completely belonged to Liangshan. Even if Wang Ma is released now, it is impossible.
It poses a threat to Liangshan. And Wang Mao is now more and more afraid of Liangshan and has no intention of rebellion. He stays in his palace every day and is his "An Le Gong".
"Qing'er, has Xiu'er been given to His Royal Highness Prince Liang?" In the Hot Spring Palace, Wang Mara asked his servants. These servants were all eunuchs in the original palace and now followed him to the Hot Spring Palace.
"Your Majesty, it has been sent over," said a eunuch below.
Wang Ma frowned and said: "You remember, I am no longer Your Majesty! From now on, you will still call me Grandpa."
"Yes, sir." The eunuch said hurriedly.
"Qing'er, Xiu'er is so beautiful at the age of twenty-eight, His Highness Prince Liang will definitely accept it?" Wang Ma said to himself.
Qing'er and Xiu'er are his daughters Wang Qing and Wang Xiu. He is still worried about his personal safety, so he wants to give his daughter to Wu Dong. If Wu Dong accepts his daughter, then he will
Don't worry.
A few days later, news came from the palace that his two daughters had been rewarded to Yang Xiong, commander of the Fourth Army. After hearing this, Wang Ma was stunned, but Yang Xiong was there.
Liangshan's status was not low. After thinking about it, Wang Ma felt that this matter had some effect.
In early April, Yang Xiong came to the Hot Spring Palace to meet his father-in-law.
"Please get up, my dear son-in-law." Wang Ma looked at Yang Xiong and found that Yang Xiong was tall, but his face was sallow, and he was still handsome. He did not dare to neglect Yang Xiong, so he hurriedly asked Yang Xiong to get up and sit down, and then asked someone to serve Yang Xiong tea.
"Father-in-law, the Governor has told me that you sent your daughter to the palace just to save her life. The Governor gave me Qing'er and Xiu'er and asked me to tell you that as long as you live in peace and safety
If you stay in Kaijing City, Liangshan will never kill you. As your daughter-in-law, I will naturally not neglect you." Yang Xiong said.
"Okay, okay, my dear son-in-law, don't leave today, stay here for one night." Wang Ma was overjoyed and said.
"No, there is a military aircraft meeting tonight, so I will take my leave." Yang Xiong said.
"Military aircraft meeting?" Wang Ma was stunned and said, "I don't know what to discuss?"
Yang Xiong looked at Wang Ma with a cold gaze and said: "This is a major matter in Liangshan, you'd better not pry."
Wang Ma was taken aback and hurriedly said with a smile: "No way, I just asked casually."
He really asked casually, with his current status, how could he dare to spy on Liangshan's military situation? Isn't that asking for death?
"This is best. Father-in-law, please say goodbye!" Yang Xiong said.
Yang Xiong left the Hot Spring Palace and headed towards the palace. He was thinking about what the military aircraft meeting was discussing this time. He hoped that Liangshan could launch a new war, and then he could continue to participate in the war. The only thing he liked in his life was war.
, I just want to be on the battlefield all the time.
