    Has Li Dingguo surrendered?

    This was a bit beyond Zhao Han's expectation. Although he ordered to surrender, he didn't hold much expectation.

    If Li Dingguo does not surrender, he can lead his troops to flee to the hinterland of Henan, and go to accompany Luo Rucai who is entrenched there.  If he dares to stay, he will be surrounded by five regular divisions, and a large number of peasants and soldiers will also participate.

    It doesn't matter if you surrender, tens of thousands of horses!

    There are thousands of good horses equipped by the cavalry, and thousands of bad horses equipped by the cavalry-although those good horses are not much better than the horses in Jeju Island.

    After Li Dingguo surrendered, Huang Yao took over the entire Runing Mansion.

    The Datong Army occupied half of the Runing Mansion before, but now they swallowed it all up, adding to Zhao Han's burden.  Even Luo Rucai didn't like this dilapidated place, and even if they immigrated there, the drought continued and they couldn't grow any food.

    In the first three years, all taxes must be exempted, and in the next few years, taxes must be halved, so as to slowly restore vitality.

    Nanyang Prefecture is not far behind, but the drought is less severe and the population is larger.

    Both Runing Mansion and Nanyang Mansion belong to the territory of Henan Province, and Zhao Han occupied it purely for military purposes.

    Zhang Xianzhong's main force is gone. Although there are defenders in Hubei, most of the cities choose to surrender.  A small number of cities chose to resist, and some defenders fled and became bandits. The next step is to slowly attack the city and suppress the bandits.

    Also, encircle and suppress Zhang Xianzhong in the Dabie Mountains!

    Zhang Xianzhong's life was very difficult. When the Datong army occupied Yingshan and Luotian counties, his army rations were completely cut off, and he only had to rob the mountain people for food to survive.

    Many war horses also starved to death, but horse meat was often eaten.

    Li Dingguo rode into the mountain alone, and the Datong Army provided information, and it took him a month to meet Zhang Xianzhong.

    "Why are you here?" Zhang Xianzhong asked.

    Li Dingguo sighed: "The army was defeated, Bai Wenxuan surrendered to the enemy, and the fraudulent city blocked the way back. The enemy army surrounded them on three sides, and the boy didn't want to lead his troops to flee Henan, so he ordered the whole army to surrender."

    "Bai Wen chose this bastard!" Zhang Xianzhong gritted his teeth.

    Li Dingguo said: "Father also surrender, the King of Wu promised not to kill them all."

    Sun Kewang said: "Do you believe his nonsense?"

    Li Dingguo said: "Wu Wang can still be trusted."

    Zhang Xianzhong told Sun Kewang to shut up, and asked, "How does he want to deal with us old thieves?"

    Li Dingguo said: "Does father know about Dongfan?"

    "I've never heard of it." Zhang Xianzhong said.

    Li Dingguo said: "Dongfan is a big island with a territory larger than ordinary mansions. It is not far from Qiongzhou Island. There are Han people on the island, and there are also many raw people. What King Wu means is that we old thieves all go to the island.  Snatch the land from Shengpan."

    Zhang Xianzhong was furious: "I have been in the Central Plains for more than ten years, but I was asked to deal with savages!"

    Sun Kewang laughed: "I now believe what Zhao Han said."

    Li Dingguo said again: "The king of Wu asked the child to bring his father a message and went to Dongfan Island. As long as the land was snatched from Shengfan, it will belong to us. Regardless of paddy fields and dry land, each person can occupy up to 20 mu.  Each household can have up to ten people. In this way, each household can have 200 mu of land, which is enough to be a landlord on the island.¡±

    "Is two hundred acres considered a landlord?" Zhang Xianzhong said disdainfully.

    Li Dingguo continued: "After each person occupies 20 acres, they can continue to grab land from Shengfan. Regardless of whether the land is good or bad, grab ten acres of land and hand it over to the government for seven acres, and the remaining three acres are ours. In this way,  Each person can have 50 mu of land. More than 50 mu, you can continue to occupy land. For every ten mu of land you grab, you can get two mu. If it exceeds 100 mu of land, you can get one for every ten mu you grab.  Mu, and there is no upper limit."

    Zhang Xianzhong was angry and funny: "This is using us like mules."

    Lao Hui suddenly said: "In fact, this is not bad. One hundred mu per person, ten people in each family, this is a thousand mu of land. Have more children, divide the household registration, and continue to rob. Twenty years later, who  If there are no children and grandchildren, who is not a big landlord?"

    As soon as this remark came out, the old thieves looked at each other in blank dismay.

    Although he cannot be distinguished in front of others, it seems to be a good day to be a big landlord on the island and have many children and grandchildren.

    Li Dingguo said: "If the father is willing to surrender, the king of Wu promises to return his wives and concubines. But he can only take away one wife and one concubine, and the other concubines must stay and remarry others."

    After Zhang Xianzhong settled down in Hubei, he already had offspring, including one son and two daughters.

    However, wives, concubines and heirs do not matter to Zhang Xianzhong.

    Historically, Zhang Xianzhong decided to go out of Sichuan to fight against the Qing Dynasty. When he left Chengdu, he killed all his wives and concubines, and killed his only son.bsp;After the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the plague in the north subsided, and the drought in the north also eased.  On the contrary, the small imperial court of the Southern Ming Dynasty continued the drought, and the areas with severe drought were all transferred to the south.

    Hanyang Wharf.

    Zhang Xianzhong took one wife, one concubine, one son and two daughters, and twenty-nine old thieves with their families, and became the first batch of rogues to go south by boat.

    He looked back at the city, feeling a little lost, and soon hardened his heart.

    Surrender is forced to surrender, because all the troops want to surrender.  According to Zhang Xianzhong's own thinking, he wants to go out of the mountain and continue killing to his heart's content.

    Since he is not dead now, let's go to Dongfan Island, and he will definitely be able to make a comeback!

    He didn't dare to rebel, because it would be useless, but he thought he could definitely do it after earning thousands of acres of land.

    Zhao Han didn't care about this, the more land property Zhang Xianzhong had, the more property the government had.  What's more, Zhang Xianzhong is also divided into household registrations, and each household registration book can have up to ten people.  After the division of households, who will listen to him in the next generation?

    Li Dingguo stayed in Runing Mansion and joined the newly formed cavalry team. His position was the cavalry post of the Datong Army, commanding a hundred cavalry.

    The Datong Army still has only six divisions, but each division has been expanded to 10,000 people, of which 2,500 are dragoons.

    In addition, a new independent cavalry regiment was formed, with a number of 5,000, all of whom were armored cavalry, and Lu Xiangsheng served as the commander.

    The war horses mainly came from Zhang Xianzhong's surrender troops, which was also one of the main reasons why Zhao Han persuaded him to surrender.  The rest were collected by the people one after another, and some of the horses came from Jeju Island.

    At this moment, the Qing army had already entered the customs, drove Li Zicheng to Shaanxi, and quickly sent troops south to Shandong.

    Then, Huang Taiji contracted the plague
