Chapter 209: Liquidation and tax exemption for 3 years

It is easy to win two cities, but the rural areas have not been so smooth. Because both cities belong to the count. However, in rural areas, there are many small lords, such as the baron or something, but also the knight lord, or the jazz manor.
Although the Sexner family had fallen, those barons, knights, and jazz, etc., did not immediately surrender. They held onto their castle and manor, and asked Marin to maintain their original status and territory, or they would not surrender.
But Marin was unwilling to accept their capitulation. Why? Because these people have divided the land, he will seal the land in the future. Where can I go to find the land?
Although, there is still much to be reclaimed in East Frisian Wasteland. However, those little nobles who had previously loyal to the Sexner family occupied a lot of good ground. Especially in the agriculturally developed County of Lair, many fertile lands were divided up by the Seksner family and other small nobles.
You know, the agricultural county of Lyle, according to the information of the former palace minister Jeffrey, has 50,000 acres of arable land, which has 100,000 acres and 600,000 acres.
However, these cultivated lands were in the hands of the Sexner family and the lower nobles who were loyal to them. You know, in the Wadden Islands, Marin was desperate and used all the resources, but he only reclaimed more than 10,000 Yougram. A county in Lyle County has 50,000 Ugram land, and most of it is fertile.
Not only that, Jeffrey also told Marin a very important message-Lyle County was the territory of the Uckner family who had betrayed the Brock family. It is precisely because of the wealthy agricultural counties like Lyle County that the Uckerna family has the confidence and strength to rebel. Even now, many of the little aristocrats in Lyle County were followers of the Uckner family, and now followers of the Sequner family.
Therefore, the little aristocrats in Lyle County, more or less, have resentment with the Bullock family, which also gives Marin enough excuses to annex their territory. Of course, Jeffrey and a few officials who surrendered Marin early had some land in Lyle County, and Marin would not move. Since accepting their surrender, they will no longer be deprived of their land.
For the fertile land of 50,000 Yougram, Marin was so resolute that he decided to use the excuse of "liquidation of old grievances" to investigate the little nobles in Lyle County and take the opportunity to deprive them of land ...
Therefore, Marin directly sent 2,000 soldiers and horses to the countryside of Lyle County to combat the little nobles who resisted. At the same time, Marin also sent 100 cavalry, responsible for intercepting the little nobles who wanted to escape, so that those little nobles would not become Marin's identification opponents after running out.
As for the countryside in Orich and elsewhere, Marin was not so coveted of those lands. However, the total arable land in several other areas is also quite a lot, which is not less than that in Lyle County, but relatively barren.
For other places, Marin's attitude is different, especially in Orich County. Because, Orich County was the home base of the Brock family. According to a report sent back by Schwartz, many people in the area are still loyal to the Bullock family.
For Orich County, Marin's policy is to crack down on the loyalty of those Sexner families and confiscate their property and land. The targets that were hit were mainly the new aristocrats who were captured by the Uckner and Sekner families after the collapse of the Brock family. Marin does not recognize these books.
At first, he served in the Bullock family, but later he took on some of the nobles of the Sequner family. Marin did not move their land and continued to appoint them, but he would also take precautions.
However, there is another kind of people in Orich County. They used to be loyal to the Brock family, but after the Ukner family rebellion succeeded, they were deprived of the nobility and became civilians because of their loyalty to the Brock family. And these families, because they were once aristocratic families, have inherited knowledge.
After that, Schwartz inquired that there were nineteen such families in Orich. When Marin heard about it, he immediately signed the first Earl order-the title of owner of the 19 families. In addition, from the cultured children of these 19 families, we select talents, train them, and act as reserve officials. If it can be good, direct the officer.
Marin is too lacking in talent now, so it was overjoyed to learn that these 19 families existed. There are dozens of scholars in 19 families ...
For other regions, Marin's attitude is also very clear-after the fall of the Bullock family, the newly registered nobles of the Uckner family and the Sequner family were abolished and deprived of property and land. As for the nobles that existed long ago, if they surrendered, they would temporarily retain the noble status. If you don't surrender, destroy it directly, then confiscate the property and land ...
Because of Marin's liquidation policy, many small aristocrats in the countryside resisted, and even many serfs followed suit. For a while, East Frisian was in a storm.
But Marin wasn't worried. East Friesland had a population of only 60,000. It would be difficult for all the strong men to gather and give them a good commander. But now, these rural nobles are fighting on their own, and the total strength of each family is generally not more than 100, which is very easy to clean up.
Marin first sent people to clean up the rebels with a large total number, and then compiled the remaining soldiers and horses of these rebels, and then took these surrendered soldiers and horses to clean up the others.
In fact, in several other counties, resistance was not too intense. Because, with Marin stubbornly to the end, it was only a group of young nobles newly registered by the Ukner family and the Sexner family. These people, there are only more than 20 in total, very well packed.
But Lair County is different. All the little nobles here are the objects to be cleaned up. Therefore, the entire county of Lyle County has become the battlefield of conquest ...
More than 70 local nobles formed a coalition against Marin. They brought together more than 2,000 people to fight Marin's army. Led by a dozen local knights.
However, these miscellaneous troops are really vulnerable. After Marin sent a third party from Frentzberg, firing a row of guns and laying down the dozen or so knights leading the other side, the heart of the other army was immediately dissipated. Then, when the army charged, the opposite side collapsed. Next, it's time to capture the captives ...
Then, all the deeds in Lyle County fell into the hands of Marin ...
However, so many small aristocrats were suppressed at once, people in East Frisian Land were heartbroken. Many people are worried that the new Earl Marin will aim the butcher knife next time ...
To this end, Marin decided to soothe the hearts of people, so as to avoid social instability ...
So, on November 11, the day of the legendary Singles' Day, Marin signed the second Earl order-starting next year, the entire East Frisian State will be tax-free for three years!
In other words, in the next three years, the owners, businessmen, fishermen, citizens, etc. of East Frisian will not need to pay any taxes to the count within three years. Of course, the pound tax for import and export, Marin specifically pointed out, still has to pay. In addition, the tithe of the church is not under Marin control ...
At the same time, in this document, Marin also announced that the liquidation has come to an end and will not continue to pursue ...
In fact, this liquidation made Marin obtain a total of 70,000 Ugram farmland, which is a huge gain. What else is there to say? Although it brought a lot of confusion, the soldiers under Marin were trained in place, and it was a crushing operation for the noble army composed of the little nobles in the countryside. So, all this is not a big deal.
Today, Marin's order announced a three-year tax exemption and stopped liquidation. It finally calmed the hearts of the people in the country. Even if there are still people who have rebellious intentions, they can't turn back the waves. Because those powerful nobles were basically washed by Marin. Moreover, there were two barons who did not mean to fight against Marin, but because they were too strong, they occupied too much land, and Marin made excuses to clean up ...
In East Friesland, Marin didn't need a powerful little lord, because that would weaken his power ...
As for the three-year tax exemption in East Friesland, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is actually not a big deal. Because Marin checked the information and found that the tax revenue of the entire East Frisian State was only more than 50,000 gold coins per year. Among them, more than 10,000 gold coins belong to the import and export pound tax obtained from Emden Port. In other words, other domestic taxes are only 40,000 gold coins per year ...
With so little money, Marin really despise. Because his salt sales income in Yancheng is more than several times this year. So these taxes are not very important. Even after tax exemption for three years, only 120,000 gold coins were lost. However, it is worthwhile to get the country settled down.
Sure enough, after the promulgation of this order, the society of East Friesland was basically settled with the hard work of Marin. In order to achieve the result, Marin spent money and hired a lot of loud locals to go to each village to publicize the content of the order so that everyone knew the three-year tax exemption.
This overwhelming bombing-type propaganda works wonderfully. Residents heard that after three years of tax exemption and suspension of liquidation, they were at ease ... Applying a sentence from the China News Network-"People have taken the peace of mind" ...
Next, Assistant Bishop Taylor went out and went to churches in several cities to preach and incidentally propagate. He seized the highlight of the three-year tax exemption and described Marin as a very wise lord.
