    ,

    The city of Nanjing in the Ming Dynasty was very large, and the outer city wall framed the entire Zijin Mountain.  Guanyin Gate, Qilin Gate, Shangfang Gatethese are all gates of the outer city, leaving only one place name in later generations.

    ? If you look at the outer city walls, there are large tracts of farmland and mountains in Nanjing.

    So, should we keep the cultivated land in the city, and should we distribute the cultivated land to nearby farmers?  In other words, are these people who are included in the outer city considered urban residents or farmers?

    During the flood relief period in various places, the magistrates of Shangyuan County and Jiangning County in Nanjing came to find Zhao Han with many doubts.

    Zhao Han convened the officials of the Governor's Mansion to discuss repeatedly, and decided to count the farmers first, and the land that should be divided is still divided-in fact, it has already been divided.

    When the urban population continues to expand, land will inevitably be gradually encroached upon.  At that time, the population on the land will be relocated to the north to divide the land, and those who are willing to stay will be directly converted into citizens.

    "There are still some vagrants in the city who lack stable livelihoods," Zhao Han ordered, "post notices to recruit 1,000 people to work. Volunteers come and pay the wages. First, clean up the ruins of the Nanjing Imperial City. When the flood recedes,  Then recruit craftsmen and handymen to slowly restore the Nanjing Imperial City."

    The two county magistrates took orders to leave.

    Pang Chunlai asked: "The governor plans to make Nanjing the capital?"

    "It's true, let Beijing take it easy." Zhao Han sighed.

    Beijing's population is also in the millions.

    In the middle of Ming Dynasty, the surrounding vegetation was cut down.  During the Hongzhi and Zhengde dynasties, residents had to rely on Xishan coal for their living firewood, and the emperor could only open his eyes and close his eyes when his ancestral graves (dragon veins of the imperial mausoleum) were dug up all day long.

    The ecological environment over there is extremely fragile, and there are several sandstorms every year.

    Not to mention water transportation, it is a waste of manpower and material resources.

    ?Don¡¯t talk about food grain going by sea, Zhu Yuanzhang also used sea ships to transport military food at first, and Zhu Di also used sea ships to transport horses from North Korea.  There were several shipwrecks, the entire fleet capsized, and such things were never mentioned again.

    Zhao Han himself may be able to insist on shipping, but who knows what future generations are?  Being fooled by ministers with relevant interests, it is estimated that he will have to take the Grand Canal again.

    Zhu Di established his capital in Beijing to deal with Mongolia.

    With the continuous development of guns, railways may be built in the future, and the Mongolian grasslands no longer pose a big threat.  Then why go to Beijing to eat sandstorms?

    ?Leave two hundred years to restore the ecology around Beijing, so that the people there can live a better life.

    Another most important reason is that after the war and famine in Beijing, the population may not be much left.  If Zhao Han decides to set his capital in Beijing, he will have to forcibly relocate rich households and common people to enrich the city of Beijing, just like Zhu Di.

    Toss around!

    "Nanjing is also fine," Li Banghua said after careful consideration, "but we have to go on an expedition to the grasslands and take root firmly in Hetao."

    In addition to Hetao, there is also the Songliao Basin. Both areas can be farmed, and they have been in the state of half-cultivation and half-grazing in the Ming Dynasty.  As long as these two places are in control, the grassland and the Northeast are no problem, but before the advent of the railway, the cost of transporting food in was relatively high, and it took at least 30 years of painstaking efforts to stabilize it.

    Zhao Han looked at the map repeatedly: "The flood prevented them from crossing the river. Let us send troops to Jianghuai, at least in June. By that time, Zhang Xianzhong may have captured Yunyang. Our army went north to Jianghuai, and Li Zicheng went north to Shanxi. Zhang Xianzhong had no other choice."  , it is estimated that he will go west to Sichuan. According to reports, there are uprisings everywhere in Sichuan, and Zhang Xianzhong may easily enter."

    "The eight thieves are not bad. Over the past year, they have been promoting good governance in Hubei. It is not a bad thing for him to take down Sichuan." Li Banghua said.

    Zhang Xianzhong no longer went to get involved in Tongcheng, the chief military adviser would not be Wang Zhaoling, and no one would fool Zhang Xianzhong into killing indiscriminately in Sichuan.

    Today, Zhang Xianzhong proclaims himself the "Great General of Dingguo", and his military advisers are ranked in order: Liao Zhifang, Xu Yixian, and Pan Duao.

    Especially Liao Zhifang and Xu Yixian, one of whom carried "Datong Ji" with him, and the other who boasted of being Zhuge Liang all the year round, they were all admonishing Zhang Xianzhong to implement good governance.

    So Zhang Xianzhong started to do what Zhu Yuanzhang did, throwing a large number of soldiers who had no combat effectiveness into "military settlements".  He also recruited refugees everywhere and carried out "civil settlements" in various places.  At the same time, he began to train soldiers and restrain the military discipline of the troops. Although the military discipline is still very bad, it is much better than that of the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.

    These policies are considered good governance in the chaotic north.

    Although the people in Juntun and Mintun were similar in status to serfs, they still regarded Zhang Xianzhong as a living Bodhisattva.

    Really, killing a few people less so that the common people can farm safely is already called good governance in the north!

    ?people!  "

    Another group of scholars came over. Since Han Wenjing ordered the arrest, these Datong scholars did not dare to carry their swords.

    "General, please go to the city to appease, we have already contacted all places." The scholar leader stepped forward and cupped his hands.

    Fei Ruhe cupped his hands in return: "Thank you, everyone."

    As for Wang Changyin who was kneeling on the ground, Fei Ruhe didn't even bother to take a look.

    Xu Ying had made contact a long time ago. Once the army arrives, Yangzhou will definitely be taken.  Just like Wang Changyin's cowardly prostration and kneeling, how can it be like the internal response developed by Xu Ying?  He must have come out halfway to claim credit!

    After experiencing a military disaster, there was no chaos in Yangzhou city.

    Gan merchants and Huizhou merchants took the initiative to maintain order, and their common enemy was Western merchants (Shanxi, Shanxi).  As long as Zhao Han wins Yangzhou, they can drive the Western Merchants out of Yangzhou even if they don't rely on political power!

    If Zhao Han came to Yangzhou City in person at this moment, he would definitely feel emotional.

    What a rich and beautiful city, 800,000 people were killed in history, and the massacre lasted for ten days, and the entire city of Yangzhou was almost wiped out.

    In this time and space, "Yangzhou Ten Days" will definitely not appear again.

    The news of taking Yangzhou lightly did not cause any disturbance in Zhao Han's heart. After all, it had been planned for several years, and now it is just ripe.

    Another military situation from the north made Zhao Han sigh.

    Wu Sangui surrendered, and the Manchu Qing occupied Songshan Fort, completely turning Jinzhou into an isolated city.

    The outer city of Jinzhou has been lost, and the satellite cities have also surrendered, but Zu Dashou still sticks to the inner city of Jinzhou.

    Zu Dashou was a little scared, he had feigned surrender once.  He killed the general who advocated standing firm, surrendered with his son, and left his son as a hostage, claiming that he was going to cheat the city.  Then he was gone forever, and his son was gone, which made Huang Taiji feel bad.

    How can a person who feigned surrender once dare to surrender easily again?
