Chapter 601
"Since you're here, let's rest for a while," said Zhang Zai.
The people of Qingzhou felt worthless, wronged, unfair and uncomfortable for Wang Ju. However, after hearing about this, Zhang Zai clearly knew that Wang Ju could not really resign and become a commoner. Whether it is a good emperor or a bad emperor, the current government family is a good emperor who wants to do something and can really give his disciples a free time at home?
At most, how to deal with it in the end depends on the game between multiple parties.
However, Zhang Zai also wondered: "Why do you want to offend Duke Wen?"
My students know that this student is weird, scheming, and has a long-term view of things.
So when I started buying a bamboo paper workshop, I looked for friends, found friends from the Gao family, and asked Wen Yanbo to write poetry.
Now that Fu Bi has gone down, Han Qi is in Hebei for retirement, Wen Yanbo has become the real boss of the court. It is very irrational to Wang Ju punish Wen Yanbo.
Wang Ju said: "My teacher, after the disciples won a great victory, they knew that there would be people in the court that would be very dissatisfied, and they were even more worried that they would take the initiative to hand over the Hengshan Mountain, so they used some tricks. However, they wanted to deal with Sima Guang at that time. However, they did not want Sima Guang to be demoted to Luoyang to prepare books. Without Sima Guang, Duke Wen had to take the lead. As a result, he took it on his own."
"No wonder."
"However, it's okay, because the concepts are not consistent, it's just a matter of time."
"But we can't just blame Duke Wen. Some of the new laws of Duke Jiefu are indeed very bad, just like the horse protection law implemented now."
In the early Song Dynasty, there were still people who could see the Song Dynasty cavalry, especially the Battle of Suicheng led by Li Jixuan, Wei Neng, Yang Si, Yang Liulang, Tian Min and Qin Han. The Song army was almost all cavalry, and even this battle became a real cavalry battle.
The shadow of cavalry was also seen in the other victories. Yang Ye's cavalry in the Battle of Yanmen, the battle of the city, the battle of Tanghe, and the battle of Xuhe were mostly achieved through the cooperation of cavalry and infantry.
However, the cavalry seemed to disappear from the Song army. Even in the Battle of Qingzhou last year, Wang Ju was not picking out the cavalry alone because of the small number of cavalry and many of the cavalry's lack of cavalry skills, and did not select the cavalry like the Battle of Yanmen.
There are three reasons. The first is that Xixia is independent and loses one of the most important horse sources.
The second article turned out that the Song Dynasty was not crowded, so the imperial court had enough land to buy ranches, just like the Guangping Supervisory Ranch raised five or six thousand horses and occupied more than 15,000 hectares of fertile land in the three prefectures of Xing and Zhao. No matter how much the cost was, it was at least good horses could be raised. However, as the population increased, the various pastoral supervisors were gradually occupied by powerful people.
Article 3 The official's pretext has gradually increased the cost of raising horses, and even many horses have increased their mortality rate because they are not responsible for raising horses.
Therefore, Wang Anshi introduced the horse protection method.
The five-way volunteers and Baojia (referring to the Volunteer Army and Baoding) listen to them raising horses. If there is a large family property, two horses are allowed. The horse supervisor will give the horses or the government will pay for the horses, and they will not be forced to marry them. And just in case, the number is also limited. Each of the five-way routes in Shaanxi must not exceed 5,000 horses, and the Kaifeng Prefecture's territory must not exceed 3,000 horses.
Baojia and Yigong can catch thieves while horses are used, but they cannot exceed 300 miles. Kaifeng Prefecture's horse farming is exempted from 250 bunches of food and grass, and additional money is also given. Five roads raise horses to avoid annual discounts and payments (that is, the taxes and taxes other than the two taxes).
Each ten households above the third grade is one insurance policy. If the horses raised by the insured household die, the full price will be compensated. Each ten households of the fourth grade is one community, and if the horses die, the half price will be compensated. The government sends people to check the fat and thin horses every year.
Why do you do this? Ye Qingchen once investigated that the herds and prisoners raised 30,000 to 40,000 horses, occupied 90,000 hectares of land, spent a million chunks a year, and also caused a large number of deaths.
Now the people raise horses, and only some heavy taxes are exempted from the public. In this year, a lot of money will be saved without occupying land.
When horses are contracted to households, the people dare not raise horses to death at will, so the mortality rate of horses will decrease.
Because the horse-raising is Baojia Yisheng, there will be many volunteers and Baojia will ride horses, which will reserve a large number of spare cavalry for the court.
It looks really good.
But can it be taken seriously? First of all, you cannot take this seriously if you are not allowed to be forced.
Secondly, the government gave horses or money, which is another big problem. Now it is said that it is the boundary between Shaanxi Fifth Road and Kaifeng Prefecture, and finally Hebei also came. Then, where did the government give money? The people had to buy horses, which led to a rapid increase in horse prices across the country. But how much money did the government give?
Finally, it is raised by the people. Will the people use horses to cultivate land and to transport goods? So can war horses still run faster after carrying heavy loads for a long time?
Wang Fuzhi also mentioned this question.
He said that the new Xifeng law was that those who were already strong were green and square fields, and those who were both strong and those who were in a row were gradually discontinued. In the Ji, the treacherous ministers of Hui, the theory of the world was not strong enough to force the world to be implemented. As for later generations, people knew that they were abused, and there was no more to say that. The Yuanyou was abolished and could not be abolished. To this day, those who still had names and reality were still unrevolutionized, which was the meaning of the classics, which was Baojia; those who had different names but were the same, were exempted from military service and protected horses; among the numbers, the harm of protecting horses was the most fierce.
This is too heavy.
However, because the horse protection law continued to the Ming Dynasty, the people of the Ming Dynasty were also suffering. It looked very beautiful, and the people also wanted to exempt the tax on horse raising, so they raised horses one after another. However, due to business problems, the stallion died and the pasture land was converted. The horse raising people were not exempted from service. In the end, they were poor, hungry and exiled, which were all harmful to the horse protection law.
Raising horses is not because the pasture is not good enough, nor because people cannot raise them or cannot raise them. It is because when encountering drought, there is no food or grass, and when encountering harsh climates, they die from diseases!
There is only an official pastoral garden, so that horses can live in groups, play and play! The official family has special horse wranglers who can treat diseases. The official family has special pasture materials, which can be eaten in drought years or with feed. Compared with privately raising horses, the yield and quality are several times different from each other.
Since the Zhou Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, this system has been used. Han and Tang dynasties can be used to defend the border so many chariots and rides without worrying about their lack. Why should we lure ordinary people and get into trouble with them and difficulties? Those who implement this policy do not think that this policy is Wang Anshi, nor is it a policy that harms the country and the people. They are all competing to implement it one by one, and the disasters that are delayed are unsurpassed. Therefore, the method of protecting horses is the worst!
Of course. He spoke too fiercely.
But it also explains this problem. Only the government-run pastoral supervisor can raise war horses. Why? Because of the large area, horses can live in groups and play, that is, there is enough venue for them to run. However, in the hands of the common people, there is not enough venue for them to run and they are burdened. Even if they cannot raise horses, what will happen if this horse is on the battlefield?
However, this problem is many.
The reason why the Han and Tang Dynasties was that their capitals were all in Chang'an, and Guanzhong had pastures, and even Hetao, Hexi, was not too far from Chang'an.
But the capital of the Song Dynasty was in Kaifeng. The capital of the Ming Dynasty was in Beijing. No matter where it was released, it was too far away from the capital. How could the rulers feel at ease if they did not protect the capital? Therefore, this hurdle cannot be overcome.
Therefore, including Wang Ju and Ma Ce is not the root cause.
It can only be said that according to what he said, after contracting the herdsmanship prison to the people for breeding, would the war horses be or war horses be.
After thinking about it, Wang Ju said: "The key is to make money. If the Qingmiao Law does not have two profits, and does not force the levy. If the exemption law does not have leniency and left money, if the horse protection law really gives the people the money to buy horses and formulates more detailed regulations on compensation for dead horses, even if the horses raised by the people don't play a big role in the battlefield, it will indeed make some people ride horses. At the same time, these horses can cultivate land and transport goods..."
Not to mention horses, even long-lived turtles will die.
If you die without asking what reason and ask the people to compensate the government for money, many troubles will arise.
In fact, Wang Ju’s plan is clear at this point.
Isn’t it just money? If Wang Ju had a way to bring more income to the country and remove the disadvantages of these reforms, then this reform would undoubtedly be maintained and continued, and the Song Dynasty would develop more healthily.
But in that case, Wang Ju must become the leader of a certain sect, otherwise he would not be able to do anything at this time.
Wang Ju stayed in Hengqu, specializing in teaching mathematics, and recruited fifty disciples from the local area. These disciples Wang Ju will pay for food, clothing, and information, and give some compensation. But they have to stay with Wang Ju, specializing in mathematics, and assist Wang Ju in experiments, or calculations, just like trigonometric functions, etc., and must use a rough method to measure repeatedly and calculate one by one. Of course, with these data and some original experimental data, Wang Ju's math book can be continued.
However, the capital was in chaos at this time.
Hou Yuanli returned to the capital and said about the passage.
Zhao Xu was displeased at first.
This is also inevitable. Since ancient times, there have been several scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, who do not want to be officials. Only when the king is particularly stupid will ministers retreat to the mountains and forests.
Many people also wrote letters saying that Wang Ju not only took his credit, but also was unruly and looked down upon the king.
Therefore, I beg Zhao Xu to punish him strictly.
However, Wang Ju resigned and committed another crime. How to punish him severely?
And this is just what some people say.
Why do most descendants have two heroes in their hearts, one is Yue Fei and the other is Zhuge Liang. Not only is the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but at least the Romance of the Three Kingdoms has nothing to do with Yue Fei, but their fate is full of sorrow. Needless to say, Yue Anfei, Zhuge Liang was tired and anxious and died suddenly in Wuzhangyuan.
Therefore everyone feels sympathy.
The same is true for Wang Ju. Although he has not reached the point of devoted himself to his work, he is also an important official who risked his life to fight on the front line for the Song Dynasty.
Well, the victory in Qingzhou made great contributions and did not receive the rewards they deserved. In turn, they were abused by a group of officials in the court and forced to resign.
Especially some middle and low-level officials, they have not yet been involved in party struggles, so they all feel unfair for Wang Ju. Some officials are brave and write to the court. The emperor, why don’t you protect the Great Wall of the country, which is so poor in Xixia and spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy heads?
Seeing these memorials, Zhao Xu gradually woke up.
In fact, Wang Ju said it in a vague way last year that I was doing things for Your Majesty in front, but you should protect me well in the back. After all, I have not turned to the reformists and the old party, but I have not turned to the old party. I am an isolated minister and are vulnerable to attack.
And as time went by, Wang Shao also submitted a memorial saying that it was because of Wang Ju, and his morale was a little depressed.
Last year, it was considered to be officially operating Hehuang, but last year it only operated Gu Weizhou, which was later Gongzhou.
This year, Xizhou and Hezhou are officially launched, and it is not the base of Muzheng, so it is going to use troops.
Now a piece of news came out that if you defeat the enemy, you will not only fail to do it, but you will be a guilty person if you don’t do it well. Wang Ju is a scholar and a second-class Jinshi. It is difficult for the court to use punishment, but it will be replaced by a military general.
So under this situation, even if Wang Ju led a large group of generals and tempered many soldiers, Wang Shao did not dare to use troops to Xihe.
Therefore, Wang Shao vaguely hoped that Zhao Xu would issue an edict to give Wang Ju a fairness.
This is Wang Ju’s greatest reliance.
No matter whether Zhao Xu was happy about his resignation or not, as long as he used troops to Xihe, he would have to recover himself.
Zhao Xu had no choice but to write an edict in person, first reprimanding Wang Ju, and then adding Wang Ju. It was not a substitute, but a real and a scattered official. He was promoted to two levels respectively. He was promoted to the doctor of the Ministry of War.
The envoy of the Central Committee took the edict to Yanzhou, but Wang Ju had already left Yanzhou. The envoy asked where he had gone, but he had no questions, so he had to go to the house of Wang Ju, Zheng Baiqu. There was still no one. As a last resort, he had to ask the local officials to inquire, and finally found out that Wang Ju had gone to Hengqu. Then the envoy of the Central Committee came to Hengqu again with the edict.
When Wang Ju received the imperial edict, he first said thanking His Majesty for something, and then said: "Encourt, I have been tired over the years and want to rest. I forgive me for not accepting this edict."
It is difficult to get promoted, but it is also difficult to get Wang Ju back to become an official. As for promotion, I don’t care!
Wang Ju refused to give the order, and the envoy had to go back.
Wen Yanbo's face immediately became gloomy after hearing this.
Because he had a premonition that he would be in trouble.
