For people in this era, it's good to be alive, but there may be too many requirements.

At least for them, it already takes a lot of courage to ask questions to the Lord. If it's not something that you really care about very much, how can you ask Guogong about some trivial things.

Therefore, after Zhang Mingwei asked, no one asked any more questions.

After waiting for a while, Zhang Mingwei said to them, "I don't dare to say anything else, but I will guarantee you your military salaries for the Jingying camp, the Yongwei Battalion, and those of you who moved to Jinggi to guard the Great Wall; Your tuntian will be implemented according to the regulations of the time of Taizu, and whoever dares to encroach on or embezzle it will be severely punished without credit......"

Hearing this, these middle and low-level officers couldn't help but be overjoyed, and looked at Zhang Mingwei one by one, and their eyes really melted Zhang Mingwei. The yearning for the future has become incomparably longing.

However, Zhang Mingwei has not finished speaking"...... In addition, in the future, when there is a war, there will inevitably be clear rewards and punishments, and there will be no deductions or arrears. I said this, if you don't comply, no matter who you are, you can go to the Jinyi Guard Yamen to report it. ”

There was a very strange phenomenon at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and it was also a place that many descendants regretted.

It is that the Ming army is often defeated, as if it has not been fought at all, and it is the worst army. However, as soon as they surrendered, they often became extremely brave. The reason for this is not that they suddenly turned into Gundam, but that it is a problem with the system.

When they were in the Ming army, they were not well fed and clothed, and they sold the weapons and armor they relied on for their lives, or they simply sold their wives and sons.

Even if they make desperate achievements, they will be deducted and taken by their generals, no matter who they change, they can be very brave in such a situation.

However, at least the Jianyu at this time, compared with the Ming army, has much more clear rewards and punishments, which must be admitted.

In particular, the slave chieftain Taiji and the regent Dolgon after him were very good at buying people's hearts, and they often reused the Ming army that had taken refuge in the past. Although Jianyu has no money, the Ming Dynasty has money, and the spoils of war stimulate those soldiers who surrendered to fight with their hearts.

Compared with these two compartments, it is strange that the Ming army can be undefeated against Shang Jianyu!

Of course, some outstanding people on the side of Daming naturally have an understanding of this situation. However, under the general trend, who can change? Believe it or not, as long as someone dares to take this head in the court, they will inevitably be attacked by other people, and in the end they will either go into the field or be ruined.

Only a traveler like Zhang Mingwei, who is familiar with this period of history and has the greatest trust of Emperor Chongzhen, can he kill a piece of light in this dark court at the end of the Ming Dynasty and break it with force.

Otherwise, Zhang Mingwei's strategy of first securing the inside must be to tell Emperor Chongzhen that he can't implement it.

First, if you don't have money, you won't say it, and second, the Liaodong generals will definitely oppose it, and the officials who speak for the Liaodong generals in the court will also oppose it; The local officials in the third Gyeonggi region will also oppose it, and their officials in the court will oppose it; Even those who were originally paid to Liaodong and could pick up a layer of wool would oppose it if they had no chance......

The party struggle at the end of the Ming Dynasty was quite famous, and in the court, it was no longer for official business, and it was debated on a case-by-case basis; But for the sake of selfish interests, impeach you today, impeach me tomorrow, how many things can you do under such a rhype?

However, now, with Zhang Mingwei's identity and the strength he showed in the court, there is no problem in coercing inside and outside Shanhaiguan.

After announcing this national policy that the outside world must first be secured, and these middle- and low-level officers representing the various health posts were meaningless, Zhang Mingwei retreated to the stage to drink tea and moisten his throat.

Subsequently, Yan Yingyuan, Jin Zhensun, Zhang Luofu, and other generals standing behind Zhang Mingwei and Zhu Yujiao saluted Zhang Mingwei with their fists, and then strode down the stage and came to the front of the stage to announce that these middle- and low-ranking officers had come forward to receive their arrears.

There is no introduction to them, so basically no one knows them. However, those who can stand behind the princess and the princess and do this kind of thing again must not have a low status.

Therefore, when these middle and low-ranking officers in Liaodong stepped forward to receive their arrears, they also kept these generals in mind.

What they didn't expect was that they didn't receive the silver, but only some notes with their names and the amount of silver coins stamped with the seals of Zhang Mingwei and Princess Kunxing.

When they were surprised, either by Yan Yingyuan or simply by the eunuchs who issued them, they bluntly told them that they would take these notes back, and then, when they moved inward through Shanhaiguan, they would exchange these notes for silver. In doing so, it is to ensure that each soldier receives his or her fair share of salary, and that no one else will be deducted.

Looking at the so much silver poured on the table, thinking about the promise made by Guogong just now, and looking at the bright red seal on the note, no one dared to make trouble in the end.

Not to mention that under the surveillance of the soldiers of the Yongwei Battalion and the captain of the Jinyi Guard, did they have the courage to make trouble, even if the reason given here, they couldn't refute it?

Of course, the main thing is that they have hope. Those who move actively are more likely to enter the Beijing camp.

So, when they got these notes, they all obediently lined up. And at this time, there are eunuchs who are nagging them.

"You guys, it's really good luck that you met Guogong!"

"Tell you, if anyone dares to break the law, no matter who it is, the prince will make the decision for you. Have you ever heard about the refugees in Gyeonggi? For them, Guogong made a public announcement......"

“……”

In this era, no matter who you are, you are eager to have a blue sky.

When these eunuchs nagged these soldiers about what Zhang Mingwei had done in Beijing, all of a sudden, these soldiers couldn't help but have a new understanding of Zhang Mingwei.

I don't know which head is missing the root of the flag, or if it is some other reason, I actually muttered that the national prince also collects money. This made the faces of the officers who heard it change in fright. This kind of thing is so common, but you can't say it to your face!

When the eunuchs heard this, they were not angry, but replied with a sneer, "All officials in the world may be greedy for money, but the prince will not." You don't know, when Guogong was the refugee resettlement envoy in Gyeonggi, many people gave him gifts, and as a result, Guogong accepted all of them, but they were all used for refugee resettlement. Including the money that the emperor rewarded the prince, all of them were given to the refugees. And ......"

As he spoke, he pointed to the silver on the stage and said, "You military leaders are really rich, and you have given a lot of gifts to the prince." But the Duke of the Kingdom has spent all this money on you. Let me tell you, it is your blessing to meet Guogong! ”

Hearing these things, these middle and low-level officers couldn't help but be very surprised, and it was even hard to imagine that Daming would have such a clean official?

Of course, the reason why these eunuchs will nag these things is naturally allowed. If Zhang Mingwei's image is not good, then what he says will be discounted. For example, if he has always been perceived by these people as greedy for money, then his guarantee of money will be discounted.

However, now in their impression, Zhang Mingwei is a favorite minister who is very trusted by the emperor, not afraid of power, dares to take any identity of people, and he loves the people like a son.

Whether they believe it or not, in short, after these eunuchs introduced it, it is obvious that the mood of these middle and low-ranking officers has risen a lot.

In this regard, Zhang Mingwei and others, who were sitting on the stage resting, naturally saw it clearly. Zhu Yujiao saw it, looked at Zhang Mingwei, and kept smiling on her face.

Zhang Mingwei drank tea and found this, so he said indifferently, "If we want to complete this big thing, we can complete this big thing as soon as possible, so that we can free up our hands as soon as possible to deal with the war of Li Thief's attack on Kaifeng, we can only learn from Wang Po to sell melons." ”

"Poof", Zhu Yujiao immediately laughed when she heard this. But he immediately stopped it, and apologized a little embarrassedly, "Sir, it's rude." ”

Of course, Zhang Mingwei didn't care, but took this opportunity to say to her, "Actually, this matter reflects the importance of controlling public opinion." I was thinking that when we got back to Beijing, we would have to start with this. The major policies of the imperial court, as well as other matters, and the right to interpret public opinion, must be in the hands of the imperial court, not in the hands of those scholars. A good public opinion environment often makes the imperial court get twice the result with half the effort, such as the immediate matter, which is an example. ”

There are some words that Zhu Yujiao doesn't understand, but she understands the general meaning. I didn't expect that my laughter would lead to such a reason, Zhu Yujiao immediately became serious, and said sincerely, "Mr. 's words are very reasonable, and she has been taught!" ”

………………

After that, Zhang Mingwei has been busy with this matter, after all, if you want to go to the place between Shanhaiguan and Ningyuan City, which is more than 200 miles long, all military households and everything must be placed in the Guannei, which is definitely a big project, and it is definitely not a day or two that can be completed.

There are still some Jianyu in Jinzhou, which also have to be guarded against, and there are many things.

Although these Liaodong military households don't want to put themselves and their families in precarious danger, after all, this is the place where they have lived for several lifetimes, and they are a little difficult to give up when they are leaving, which will slow down the progress of the relocation.

Until the end of April of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, the soldiers and civilians of Liaodong, except for those who remained behind the city of Ningyuan to guard against the capture of Jian, all withdrew to the inside of Shanhaiguan. According to the classification of the original guards, there are camps within a radius of dozens of miles, and there are camps everywhere.

The next step is to select the soldiers and place the rest in the Kannai area. But before that, there are still a few things to do, and some people have to deal with them.
