The consequence of the 6-pound cannon being brought to the city wall was that it had to be filled with human life. Now, as long as the cannon is mounted, the firing position is set, and the shotgun is installed, and a large number of enemies who are fighting stubbornly can be swept down immediately.

The divine power of the great killing weapon is too horrifying and invincible!

The remaining imperial guards on the city wall were killed and blood flowed into a river, howling ghosts and wolves, fleeing with their heads in their arms, and they dared not turn around and look back.

When Li Zhongyi received the news that the four walls had been controlled, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. With the help of bronze artillery, whether it was a siege or a cruel street battle, it could greatly reduce the casualties of the troops.

Over the years, the more veterans who have been enlisting in the army, the more precious they are in the army, the more they are.

If a veteran who has been killed for a long time is less than one dead, it is difficult to supplement it in a short time. According to the objective rules summarized by Li Zhongyi for many years, it will take at least two years to grow from a new recruit to a veteran.

In an army, if a grassroots officer group with well-trained and rich combat experience is the core backbone force, then veterans are indispensable flesh and blood.

Yang Lie, the commander-in-chief of the front enemy, had already entered the city, and Li Zhongyi simply became the boss, got into the exclusive carriage, covered his head and fell asleep.

Before the battle was over, Li Zhongyi, the leader of the three armies, could actually cover himself with a thin quilt and couldn't wake up. It was really an alternative and weird thing!

Among all the armies of this era, who dares to act so recklessly except the Li family army? Who can relax so much?

In addition to being obsessed with the feeling of being powerful, Li Zhongyi is also a guy who likes to enjoy life, beautiful women, beautiful clothes, exquisite dishes, indulging in the mountains and rivers, etc., all his wishes.

If you are dragged down by mountains of documents and documents over the years and cannot even enjoy a good life, Li Zhongyi asked himself, even if you have mastered the world, what's the fun?

Therefore, as long as Li Zhongyi has some free time, he will think about improving the regulations.

After so many years of raising the horse to control the army and dismounting the horse to comfort the people, Li Zhongyi deeply realized that due to the incomplete regulations, there is still a large part of the military and government documents placed on his desk that have no meaning to be given.

For example, the great scholars and civil officials led by Kong Kun like to present the articles and flatter and say auspicious memorials every now and then.

In order to give people the good impression of being a civil servant, Li Zhongyi would also take it seriously at first. He always had to criticize the first half of the page and write a lot of polite nonsense.

Later, Li Zhongyi became more and more tired of such nonsense memorials, so he simply instructed Han Xianglan and Ye Xiaolan that as long as they receive similar nonsense, they would be archived and there was no need to send them to his desk.

To be honest, in terms of government affairs, Li Zhongyi is most concerned about the issues of curbing land annexation, compulsory military service, fair trials, reasonable levy of corvee labor and reasonable tax collection.

In addition, Li Zhongyi also attached great importance to a major event: local tyrants and bad gentry used natural disasters to lend usury, and then he ate the land of self-cultivated farmers without any capital.

The fundamental background of Wang Anshi's reform is actually the fiscal revenue of the Northern Song Dynasty court, which is an extremely serious crisis of underpaying income!

Therefore, the fundamental purpose of Wang Anshi's reform was not to beautified and resolve the people's difficulties, but to take the special interests that originally belonged to the scholarly class into the national treasury.

Blocking people's way of wealth is more hateful than killing parents. Therefore, after Wang Anshi offended scholars all over the world, he could only step down in disgrace!

After so many years of practical operations, Li Zhongyi has a deeper understanding of the so-called law of control and chaos.

The peaceful scenery with good weather, a mu of medium-sized paddy fields is worth more than ten cents, or even dozens of cents.

Once a natural disaster or a river breaks the dam, the self-cultivated farmers who had been barely living are forced to borrow money to live.

In this era, except for the Li Ji Money House, which was run by Li Zhongyi, most of the self-cultivated farmers could only borrow money from their relatives and friends, in most cases, they could only borrow usury from their villages or their hometowns.

Wang Anshi has been in the local area for more than 20 years, and he has seen this disadvantage very clearly. Therefore, after Wang Anshi took office, the Qingmiao Law and the Lending Law promulgated by Wang Anshi were all kind-hearted in terms of the original meaning of the legislation, and he really wanted to relieve the suffering of the people.

However, Wang Anshi's method of relieving the suffering of the people was a big mistake, and it was a mess!

The governments in various places were originally violent institutions dispatched by the imperial court to manage and suppress the people. What they did all day long was to deceive superiors and hide subordinates and get rid of them.

Corrupt officials from all over the country, even without the court's policies, must create conditions and make efforts to plunder.

What's more, Wang Anshi gave them a policy, which made them find a once-in-a-lifetime excuse to pick up chicken feathers as arrows. If they don't recite the good scriptures wrongly, how can these powerful monks eat and drink delicious food?

The so-called yamen’s eight characters are facing south. Don’t come in without any money. This is an absolutely profound and incisive historical summary!

Wang Anshi wanted the government that originally drank people's blood and sucked people's ointment to turn into herbivore animals, which was a huge joke.

Why was it prosperous in the early Tang Dynasty? The core point is that it is not allowed to serve as prime ministers without seizing prefectures and counties!

In other words, officials who have served as state officials and county officials are eligible to be elected as prime ministers.

The prefectures and county officials are collectively called herders. Even if they are greedy, they are at least familiar with the sufferings of the people. Not only that, the prefectures and counties are the best aware of the good policies of the court and how the crooked monks will deliberately be ruined.

To a large extent, this avoids the bad behavior of harming the people under the banner of relieving the worries of the people, but becomes a bad behavior of harming the people.

To truly curb land annexation and avoid intensifying social conflicts, there are several necessary conditions: First, and most importantly, officials who implement good policies must be spread throughout the prefectures and counties and have real power, that is, the selection mechanism for good officials must be improved; second, when self-cultivated farmers suffer from natural disasters, they can get long-term loans within five years with very cheap profits from Liji Money Houses in various places.

As long as these two things are achieved, the local tyrants and evil gentry in the prefectures and counties will not be able to make huge profits dozens or even hundreds of times through natural disasters.

After summarizing political gains and losses in the past dynasties, they only talked about land annexation, which led to self-cultivation farmers losing land, the country losing a benign tax base, and then the people could not survive, so they rose up and changed the dynasty.

However, few people can see it more clearly than Li Zhongyi. The usury exploitation of the bureaucratic landlord class using financial means is one of the main causes of the large number of self-cultivated farmers losing land and becoming serfs!

However, although Li Zhongyi saw this level, he had to choose to endure for the time being and did not restrict usury in the Pinglu area. If he did that, the enemy he would face would be more than just the imperial guards.

It is no exaggeration to say that Li Zhongyi really dares to ban usury immediately. Then, the military leaders of the world, the literati and officials of the world, and the local tyrants and evil gentry of the world will definitely unite and fight to the death with him.

With the current strong strength of the Li family army, it is indeed a predictable thing to defeat all kinds of forces. However, the entire Central Plains melee caused the prosperous Central Plains, and the other hand, there must be treacherous people leading the Khitans to the south. This is the worst choice, and what the wise don’t do.

The reason why Li Zicheng was driven off the dragon throne after he entered Beijing was actually very clear.

Li Zicheng wanted to change the dynasty, but the only one who died was the Zhu family. The civil and military officials and generals expected to continue to be officials after surrendering.

But unexpectedly, Li Zicheng did not restrain his subordinates and confiscated all the officials and gentry families in Beijing, which offended all the civil officials and military generals in the world and became the public enemy of the "people in the world".

As one of the representatives of the military general class, it became a natural thing for Wu Sangui to bring wild boar skin into the pass. How could Chen Yuanyuan have anything to do?

Fortunately, there is already a perfect reference system in Li Zhongyi's memory.

As a mature politician, Li Zhongyi chose to temporarily endure and build a united front with great fanfare in order to paralyze those so-called people in the world.

When Li Zhongyi truly grasped the military and political power of the world, he trained 300,000 elite iron troops, plus hundreds of thousands of village troops who were firmly controlled.

Hehe, by that time, those so-called people in the world had only two choices. Either give up the huge profits of financial usury and the privilege of legal land annexation, or they were killed before the army could be successfully launched!

Li Zhongyi slowly woke up from his sweet dream. After washing and changing clothes, he saw Chu Xiong coming over and whispering: "Master, that guy Liu Heyang has found a bunch of delicate beauties from somewhere, all waiting outside."

Li Zhongyi smiled silently, Liu Heyang was eyeing the title of Thousand House Marquis, and deliberately delayed the time for artillery troops to enter the city in order to seize the merits, but he was bleeding.

Liu Heyang sent the beauty to show his kindness at this time, hehe, do you treat him, Li as a fool?

Li Zhongyi knew very well that the beauties sent by Liu Heyang must be the little ladies of officials and gentry families in Bozhou City.

Humph, I borrowed him Liu Heyang's eight hundred courages, and I would not dare to force the robbery of a good family girl from a small family.

If the moral preaching that is worn out is really effective, then there will be no "Decree" or military judges!

Li Zhongyi is a mature politician. He is not a verbal moral character. He knows the principle of wealth and gathering people better than anyone else.

The children tied their heads to their belts and followed Li Zhongyi to fight the country. How could they really be to equalize the rich and poor in the world, but let their families be poor and have to drink the northwest wind?

Therefore, on the basis of all seizures being returned to the public, after fair and objective assessment, Li Zhongyi would also allocate a certain proportion of money, shops, antiques and other spoils according to the military merits made by the soldiers.

However, the soldiers all knew that Li Zhongyi suffered from severe illness and especially liked to collect stunning beauties.

Therefore, because it is difficult to identify beauty and ugliness, the captured beauty can only be made after Li Zhongyi’s view.

Of course, there is a necessary premise that the spoils can only be obtained from the homes of officials and gentry. Those who dare to do whatever they want will be cut off their heads and become shameful prisoners of death.

Liu Heyang captured many beauties. If Li Zhongyi didn’t choose first, who would dare to overthrow it?

This is the same logic as the bandits’ hamlet. The good things are picked first by the King of Mountains, and then the spoils are divided in sequence according to the leader’s seats.

However, the Li family army's division of spoils was not based on qualifications or seats, but was determined by military merit. Even if the number of people who did not make military merits could only look at others' popular, drinking spicy food, and embracing the beauty with comfort.

This is also the driving force behind Liu Heyang's desire to seize the title of Marquis of Thousand Houses and plans to capture Fu Zhaoxin by himself and get the title of Marquis of Thousand Houses!

"Report, when you were sleeping, the maid next to Concubine Du Tai has been here several times. The young man asked her, she refused to tell me what she had to ask for a meeting." The report with a knife on her teeth made Li Zhongyi feel energetic.

Liu Heyang had just sent a lot of beautiful ladies, and Du Qinniang on the side sent people around him to find him. Hehe, weren't you worried that he would be confused and forget Du Qinniang behind his head?

The more Li Zhongyi thought about it, the more he felt that this idea made sense. Humph, Old Li next door was asked so easily, so it would be better to simply change it to "stupid Li".

"Come on, please come in and let me take a look."

Since he wanted to attract Du Qinniang's appetite, Li Zhongyi simply made a fake act and by the way, how beautiful is the so-called beauties in Bozhou City?

Li Zhongyi's random orders caused a special headache for his teeth and sword maids around him.

Everyone has different aesthetic views. Some people like Huanfei, some prefer Yanshou, and some people are happy to visit brothels.

The beautiful girl around Li Zhongyi is varied, including long legs, thin waist, big breasts, and especially good at serving men.

How dare the people below take action without authorization?

At this time, Chu Xiong, as the head of the guards, was forced to no avail by the eyes of everyone. He had to bite the bullet and approach Li Zhongyi, and said with a saliva like a mangy dog, "Master, the young people are all local buns from the countryside, where do you know what beauty and ugly are."

Li Zhongyi was amused by Chu Xiong's rogue appearance. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, showed an evil smile, and hummed, "I like a young lady with long legs, thin waist, white skin and talented skin. Well, it's almost the same as Han's kind, that's fine."

Han? Oh, it should be Han Xianglan. Chu Xiong rolled his eyes and racked his brains to recall Han Xianglan's voice, appearance, smile, he thought about it, but after thinking about it, there was only a vague impression.

Damn, even if Chu Xiong takes the courage of the master, he doesn’t dare to look carefully!

"Master, I'm so stupid. Do you need to add the conditions for a melon-shaped face?" Chu Xiong knew that Li Zhongyi was in a good mood, so he made a joke and made the master happier with a saliva face.

Li Zhongyi, the old man next door, can hide the relationship between Li Zhongyi and Du Qinniang from anyone, but can't hide it from Chu Xiong's eyes.

The reason is actually very simple. No matter where Li Zhongyi is, Chu Xiong, the follower, must be nearby and cannot be driven away.

Thinking back to the throne of the commander of the Crown Camp, if Chu Xiong was not flexible, had poor martial arts skills, had his eyes not bright, and his mouth was not closed, let alone promotion and wealth, he would have been slaughtered by various gods with many talents.

Li Zhongyi smiled brighter and brighter. Chu Xiong is worthy of being a forbidden ghost. He cooperated extremely well. Now he is waiting for Du Qinniang's mermaid to hook up!
