It was already the end of November in the second year of Hongzhi, and the weather was getting colder.In the courtyard of Shu Fanguo Yamaguchi Castle, it is said that a citrus tree planted by the late Ouchi Yoshitaka himself is covered with golden fruits, full of fragrance.Perhaps it was lured by the aroma, there were so many birds in the yard.Zheng Liang stood in the warm sun of the yard, staring at these birds for a long time.

With the advent of winter, this year's autumn harvest has finally come to an end.Although northern Kyushu suffered a small drought last year, and the Mount Aso volcano also erupted, the impact on the income of Roche's family in Kyushu was not too great.As for Nagato Country, Shufang Country, Aki Country, Bingo Country and other places on Honshu Island, as expected, their income has been affected a lot due to the war.

After an autumn harvest, after deducting the income left to the people and the salaries to the retainers, the Luo family's 300 million shi territory has collected a total of 100 million shi in taxes, plus the income of more than 140 shi in the warehouse before. At present, there are a total of more than [-] million stones of income stored in various warehouses of the Luo family.

Naturally, Zheng Liang could not immediately know about a conspiracy involving the Luo family in Osaka. Instead, because of the support of this batch of autumn harvest income this time, Zheng Liang began to implement a series of policies he had originally planned.The first is to order the official start of military expansion and military adjustment and deployment.At this time, when the autumn harvest is over and the people are stable, and the area occupied by the Western Kingdom is gradually stabilizing, the two cities that are still resisting, among them, the Huanglong City in the Changmen Kingdom have also been captured, and the recalcitrants inside Most of them were massacres, leaving only women and children as members of the Luo family slave farm.Now only the marsh city in Zhou Fangguo is still recalcitrant.Under such conditions.Naturally, it is conducive to the expansion of the Luo family's army and the development of the military adjustment plan.Among them, in the Nagato area, the castles that will be demolished include Katsuyama Castle, Jiuyu Mountain Castle, Kameyama Castle, Yada Castle, Qingjing Castle, Okabe Castle, Shinda Maru Castle, Huanglong Castle, Neijun Castle, and Eagle Mountain Castle. In the end, only Zhiyue City and Duchuan City, which were stationed by Luo's family team, remained.

For Zhou Fangguo, the fortresses that will be demolished include Zhushan Castle, Shouzi Mountain Castle, Jishan Castle, Youtian Mountain Castle, Wakayama Castle, Chausu Mountain Castle, Ide Castle, Takamori Castle, Mitake Castle, Hakkai Mountain Castle, Sanqiu Prison Castle, Lianhua Mountain Castle, Jindai Castle, Gumi Castle, Damo Castle, and Numa Castle will also be demolished after being captured by the Luo family. After the territory is completely stabilized.The Walled City will also be demolished.

For Anyi Country, the castles that will be demolished include Katsuyama Castle, Sakurao Castle, Nomi Castle, Maruya Castle, Arisaki Castle, Yano Castle, Kusatsu Castle, Jinshan Castle, Oolong Mountain Castle, Oiyama Castle, Akagi Mountain Castle, and Naojo Castle. Yamashiro, Hakusan Castle, Ryuoyama Castle, Takayama Castle, Kimura Castle, Katsuragi, and Taishan Castle, while Huixia Castle, Takamatsu Castle, Saizaki Castle, Chausuyama Castle, and Oda Castle are the permanent squadrons of the Luo family.While demolishing the various fortresses, Zheng Liang issued the last and more important order, which was the order to relocate the people and the rich.

The first target of the relocation order is the priests and other wealthy families of the shrines on Itsukushima.These guys are nothing, and Itsukushima is on the sea.It is easy to get out of the control of the Luo family, and more importantly.Zheng Liang also wanted to control the place of the shrine that was popular with the people this time, and hoped to promote the Shinto of the Luo family by opening the shrine on the island.Therefore, Zhengliang personally issued an order to forcibly disperse and relocate all the rich and original residents of the island to Kyushu to settle down. The refugees who had just taken refuge outside the territory of Luo's family settled down.From now on, Itsukushima and Itsukushima Shrine will be opened to all members of the Luo family as one of the places of worship within the territory of the Luo family.

In addition to relocating the powerful clans and citizens on Itsukushima, most of the original wealthy clans and citizens in Nagato, Zhoufang, and Anyi Kingdoms will also be relocated to Bungzen, Bungo, and Bungo in Kyushu. Go to the eastern part of Chikuzen country.At this time, these areas are vigorously resuming production under the auspices of his son Tang Wangmaru Luo Shi Teruliang.After the previous counter-insurgency was completed, the local area has quickly calmed down. After eliminating the forces of temples and shrines and some believers who conspired to rebel and re-seizure the land, a lot of land has been added to these areas.

And these vacant lands are mainly concentrated in the eastern part of Buzen Kingdom and Chikuzen Kingdom. Bungo Kingdom had already been cleared once when it was first occupied by the Luo family, so this time it was just clearing out some hidden rebels. .These vacant fields are just used to accommodate the wealthy families and people who have been relocated there.The specific local relocation and resettlement matters should be handed over to his son-in-law Luo Shihuiliang.As the heir of the Luo family, Luo Shi Huiliang performed well in the previous local pacification. After the end of the pacification, Zhengliang once again raised the management authority of his son, and handed over all the internal affairs and military schedules in the Kyushu area to his son, and stayed behind. It is to assist its management from the side.

And after the wealthy families and the local people in the Western Kingdom were relocated, a lot of land was naturally left vacant.Part of these lands will be rewarded to retainers and soldiers with military merits in accordance with the law, making them new local lords and officials. refugees.

Such an immigration strategy, on the one hand, is to avoid the possibility of retainers forming secret groups due to too concentrated territory, and to avoid different factions in the family; at the same time, it also weakens the latent power of forces such as Maori and Nizi in these areas, disrupting them secret arrangement.On the other hand, it is to quickly fill the emptiness in these areas by migrating a large number of forces belonging to their own, and at the same time speed up the local rule and control.

Of course, the purpose of such immigration is not only that.
