Slogan: The main idea is, wait for the noble and the humble, and get free food. Equalizing the fields and freeing grain. "Welcome King Chuang, King Chuang will not pay for food when he comes."
Since the occupation of Luoyang, Li Zicheng gradually changed the past mobile operations to a military strategy of dividing his troops to defend each city he won. In the first month of the sixteenth year, Li Zicheng defeated Chengtian (today's Zhongxiang, Hubei), under the banner of "suppressing the troops and bringing peace to the people", distributed leaflets "No Conquest for Three Years".
During the uprising, the rebel army put forward the slogan "Equal land and no grain" in response to the concentration of land rights and heavy taxes in the Ming Dynasty. After Xi'an was captured, he called for "equalizing land between the rich and the humble" and "no conquests for five years." In Henan and other places, the song "You don't pay for your work and you don't pay for your food" is spread everywhere. "Equalizing land and exempting grain" was not really implemented, but individual local officials had implemented measures to change feudal land rights. For example, in some areas, the local government of Dashun tacitly allowed farmers to carry out spontaneous struggles to seize land. The rebel army also implemented the policy of expropriating the rich and powerful families in order to solve the problem of military pay and relieve the poor. However, under this slogan, plundering of civilians and harming innocent people also occur from time to time. The rebel army also implemented the policy of buying and selling on equal terms to protect industry and commerce. After the rebel army entered Beijing, citizens were ordered to continue business as usual. There are endless merchant ships sailing on the Jifu Canal in Shandong.
Purpose: To overthrow the rule of the Ming Dynasty and establish a feudal empire.
