The news of Li Chao's great victory in Hebei had just come back, and then there was good news that Li Ji had defeated Desire Valley in Daibei and killed 8,000 in battle.
And the regent of the crown prince, on the first day of the early dynasty, swept Liu Xun in the imperial history to the end, and asked hundreds of officials in the world to write suggestions for the new policy, and at the same time announced the 100-mu threshold of the two tax laws on the same day.
This string of news made Xiangyang City upside down.
The old party was united in their unanimity, and they were eager to force the palace to go all the way.
Without the vanguard of Liu Xun, coupled with what the prince proposed, the old party felt that there was no need to use such drastic means and that there was a chance to repeal the new law.
Of course, it is not excluded that many people were frightened by the prince's methods.
Liu Xun's chicken killed really scared many monkeys.
With the announcement of the edict, the people were more rejoicing.
This two-tax threshold allows many people not to pay taxes.
Even if you pay it, you can't pay much.
Compared with the original, the burden of the two taxes has been directly increased, and this time the burden has been greatly reduced.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince is good."
"Benevolence."
"For the sake of us and other small people."
The people praised it.
At the same time, various yamen also ushered in a wave of people's upsurge.
These people are here to handle household registration, to be specific, to divide households.
Datang did not oppose the rule that the people should divide their families, but on the contrary, encouraged them to do so.
Generally speaking, families with many brothers are encouraged to divide the family with the eldest son, while the younger son lives with his parents.
Of course, when the parents are old, these other sons also have to be supported.
It's just that although the original court encouraged, there are still some families that are everyone, three or four generations of a family, maybe four or five brothers live under the same roof and live together.
It turns out that there is another advantage to doing this, and the collection of taxes and miscellaneous fees is sometimes levied on a per household basis.
If there are many people, it is also a household, and if there are fewer people, it is also a household, so of course, the less the household, the less money it will pay.
But that's no longer the case.
Now the prince has said that the two tax laws have been changed.
The regular tax has not changed, it is still taxed according to Ding, but the two taxes have been changed.
The tax threshold for each household is 100 mu, and there are no two taxes under 100 mu.
It turned out that there were three or four generations of the same family and several brothers.
A family may have four, five, or even five or six members, and after paying the regular tax, they will also pay two taxes.
Now the new standard, if the family is separated, then calculated, in fact, after each small family becomes a household, there is no need to pay two taxes, so basically it cannot meet the standard of more than 100 acres of land.
Large households have to pay two taxes.
After the separation, the small households don't have to pay.
The common people are actually very good at calculation, and they can also calculate such simple arithmetic.
Then the edict was issued, and everyone rushed to the yamen to change their household registration, and every family was divided.
The yamen had already received the official letter from above, and it was very happy to do so.
For the imperial court, in fact, small households are also more beneficial, and small households will reduce the control of the patriarch of the big family over the family members, which is also conducive to the control of the local government over the people.
Of course, in the long run, there are more than such benefits, but these are not something that ordinary people can understand.
The most important thing is that the atmosphere in the DPRK has changed.
The old party's unity has collapsed.
Although it cannot be said that the old party's opposition to the new law has been resolved, at least it has given this matter more room for maneuver.
In Li Shimin's imperial study, after listening to the report of the eunuch Wang, he laughed proudly.
"The prince is very good, beyond my expectations, this way of doing things, decisive, steady and ruthless, very much my demeanor, hahaha."
Although the prince's words made the court lose the two taxes of hundreds of people, it was nothing to Li Shimin.
The vast majority of the land in this world is actually in the hands of a very small number of people.
Ordinary people do not pay two taxes, and the loss of the imperial court is not large, as long as the two taxes of those large households are guaranteed, the imperial court does not lose much.

The most important thing is that the two taxes were unanimously complained about by everyone in the world, but now, the vast majority of the people in the world support it.
Although he personally rejected Li Chao's suggestion of a 100-mu threshold, even now, he was actually right at the beginning.
Things are different now.
The original purpose was to implement the new law of two taxes, and if it was not levied on the common people, only large households were levied, this law might not be implemented from the beginning.
And now after the implementation, it has begun to be revised again, and it is not wrong to no longer levy two taxes on ordinary people.
The two tax laws have been implemented, which is a fait accompli, and this is just an adjustment.
The prince asked officials to give their opinions on the new law, in fact, this is the most delayable way to delay time, there are so many officials in the world, how much time will it take to wait for them to play.
And how much time will it take for the imperial court to read all the concerts of these officials.
It takes at least a few months, or even more than half a year, to go back and forth.
"I don't know what happened to Li Chao now" Li Shimin said with a smile on his face, the performance of the prince in charge of the regent greatly exceeded his expectations, and while he was proud of the prince, he was also very grateful to Li Chao.
Without Li Chao, there would never be such an excellent prince today.
"Li Xiang can defeat 20,000 Goguryeo cavalry head-on in the field with 20% of volunteers and 15,000 officers and soldiers, which proves Li Xiang's super high command ability.
According to the news sent back by the Six Gates, Li Xiang has continued to pursue the Goguryeo people, and I believe that Li Xiang will definitely be able to defeat the Goguryeo people, and maybe he will be able to wipe them all out in the pass. ” Li Shimin smiled, "It's enough for Li Chao to drive the Goguryeo people away." ” Thousands of miles away in the north.
East of Pingzhou.
In front of Yuguan, Yuhe.
During the Sui Dynasty, Pingzhou belonged to Beiping County, while Liaoxi belonged to Liucheng County.
Yuguan is the boundary between the two counties, and the Yu River, in the west of Yuguan, is the boundary river of the two counties.
Now, Yuguan and Yuhe are basically the actual border between Tang and Goguryeo.
Out of Yuguan to the east, it is the western Liaoxi that the Goguryeo people actually stole from them.
Night, deep awakening.
Yuguan, the door is closed, and there is a light on the close.
Under the city of Yuguan, the firelight is like starlight.
When the Goguryeo people came to kill, there were only 500 defenders in Yuguan, as well as the defenders' families.
Later, some soldiers were withdrawn from the vicinity into the city, and some government soldiers also entered the pass.
However, the matter was in a hurry, and there were still too few soldiers and horses, and they barely guarded the pass, but they could not intercept the westward advance of the Goguryeos.
At that time, the Goguryeo people only left 5,000 people to besiege Linyu Pass, and at that time, Yuangai Suwen was ready to make a wild march and sweep the thistle, so he did not besiege the city with the whole army, but left a part of the people to attack Linyu Pass, and then he took the soldiers and horses directly to the west, wanting to have a full flower.
But the result was that he neither defeated Pingzhou nor Jizhou, let alone Youzhou, and the 5,000 people he left behind did not defeat Linyu Pass.
The 5,000 Goguryeo people fought for more than a month, but the defenders were strong, and the Linyu Pass was indeed quite strong, and it could not be attacked for a long time.
Linyu Pass is actually not small, when Yang Guangdong marched, he built a forward base here, and also built a Linyu Palace in the pass, as his palace.
Stayed and lived in Sekiri.
Therefore, this Guancheng is indeed quite strong and large, but in winter, the Yu River is frozen, and there is a lack of danger.
West of the Yu River.
Wei Chigong took his 3,000 cavalry and hurried all the way through the starry night, and finally arrived in front of Yuangai Suwen.
"Yuguan is still lost" Looking at Guan Cheng, a smile appeared on Wei Chigong's tired face.
Li Chao gave him a very clear task, which was to stop Yuan Gai Suwen here.
And with 3,000 people, it is necessary to prevent more than 30,000 Goguryeo people from returning to the east.
The most important point is that it must be supported by Linyu Pass, and the Tang Army must be assisted.
Otherwise, what will they do to hinder them?
With Linyu Pass, it's different.
However, although the Linyu Pass was not lost, the fire of the tents under the gate also showed that there were a lot of Goguryeo people under the pass.
"Governor, are you waiting for dawn to attack?"
asked Yu Chi Baolin.
After days of hurrying, the cavalry was also tired.
It was not wise to venture out of the enemy camp with 3,000 tired cavalry.
Of course, Wei Chigong also knew what his son was considering.

To be safe, of course, it's better to rest for the night and attack tomorrow morning.
However, the current situation does not allow for this.
He looked at the sky and found the familiar stars.
It's the middle of the night, and it's still early in the morning.
"There will be heavy fog tomorrow morning."
"Dad, you can still look at the sky."
"As a general, how can you not know the time and geography," Wei Chigong said coldly.
Yu Chi Baolin lowered his head and said in his heart, you are also born in iron, how much astronomy and geography do you know, but he didn't dare to say this.
Wei Chigong pondered for a while.
"Let everyone dismount and rest for an hour, and after an hour, we will attack."
"Dad, it wasn't dawn yet."
"That is, when it is not yet dawn, when the day is dawn, the Goguryeo people under the city will also get up."
Wei Chigong was preparing for a surprise attack, and the raid before dawn, the Goguryeo army at that time, was familiar, and it was also the time when the military camp was at its lowest, and there would be heavy fog in the morning, which would be of great help to the raid.
"Yes" Yu Chi Baolin responded and turned around.
An hour was short, and the cavalrymen had no time to sleep, so they had to drink their horses and eat some dry food for themselves, taking turns to take a nap.
"Wake up, get up."
As soon as the hour came, the officers woke up their men.
The soldiers woke up with red eyes.
"Cheer up, it's time."
"Kill the Dog" "Kill the Dog" The cavalrymen came to their senses at once.
I don't know when it started, but it was foggy.
The fog was thick and the sky was not yet fully bright, so that the fingers could not be seen.
It was dark and foggy.
Wei Chigong turned over and got on his horse, this weather was not suitable for combat, but this weather would also paralyze the Goguryeo people in the battalion.
Holding up the horse lance, Wei Chi looked at the east.
Although it was dark in front of him now, he knew that Linyu Pass was there, and thousands of Goguryeo people were also under the city.
Defeat this Goguryeo army before he can enter Yuguan.
By defeating these people, he can stop Yuangai Suwen to gain more certainty.
"Departure" "Kill the Dog" "Kill the Dog" One by one, the knights got on their horses and headed east. t1706231537:
