After listening to Zhang Tingyu's words, Xu Yuanmeng couldn't help but sigh, of course he understood the true meaning of these words, naturally no one could stop what the Manchurian Eight Banners wanted to do, and the Han Eight Banners might be able to cooperate, but other Han people were different, for them, loyalty to the imperial court and anti-Qing and Han restoration were just a choice between a thought.

Of course, this can't blame Yongzheng and Baqi for having such thoughts, but who made the Han people too obedient? Especially after the annihilation of the three feudatories, the Qing Dynasty has never felt so like an arm, no matter how bad the trouble was, there is always no second official shop in the world to choose from, and the big guy wants to be an official, except for defecting to the Qing Dynasty, there is no other good way.

But since the uprising of the Han Army, this era has really changed. The Han people have a choice, and they also start to compare. They will weigh the Qing Dynasty and the Fu Han army together, and compare it to nothing else, just who can give more money.

No matter how much the Qing Dynasty preaches the Manchu and Han families, the big guys will not really go to their hearts, and if they want to buy people's hearts, they can only rely on real silver, but now the Qing Dynasty is short of silver, and they have to hold on to the banner people, so naturally there is no way to buy the Han people.

Then the problem comes, the Qing Dynasty did not have silver to spend on the Han people, but the Fu Han army did! Don't care how exaggerated this verbal thing is, but the Fu Han army has really taken out millions of taels of silver, and there is no so-called Eight Banners to divide the lion's share, all the money is Han Chinese, why are the Han people unwilling to take refuge?

"But the current imperial court is really difficult to come over..... Heng Chen, you are the great order of the household department, you should know better the current Qing Dynasty's family background, although the household department has paid tens of millions of taels of silver on the surface, but the tens of millions of taels are all paper, but it has not yet become silver! ”

Xu Yuanmeng had a little distress on his face, although he knew that today's banquet was not a good one, but there was no way to shirk it, it was really a dilemma, and it was difficult to weigh it.

Zhang Tingyu frowned, he naturally knew the current situation of the household, what Xu Yuanmeng said was indeed true, the original debt was filled in the books, but most of the silver that was in deficit became IOUs, and the remaining part of the silver collected was also spent in front of the previous things.

"Brother Shan, these days are all staring at the north and south....... Whether it is Jingshi or Wuchang, after all, it is a thought, after all, my Qing Dynasty is still cheering up, and the people's hearts are not completely separated, but the key at the moment is that the unity of Manchu and Han is not only to say it, but also to do it! If the emperor treats the Han people like this, the Manchu and Han families will be broken after all! ”

"Hengchen, be cautious!" Xu Yuanmeng sighed, "The emperor has his own considerations, how did he clean up the Eight Masters Party last time?" That's not something that can be persuaded in a few words, it is the emperor who stabilizes those banner owners, and only by stabilizing them can I stabilize the country of my Qing Dynasty! Today's world has made it very clear that this meat will either cut the Han people, or cut the Eight Banners! How else can the emperor choose? ”

In order to clean up the Eight Masters inside and outside the court, Yongzheng promised many things to the Eight Banners, and those things have not been given enough, if you want to cut the meat of the Eight Banners, you can only kill yourself.

Zhang Tingyu also realized that he had lost his words, and immediately sighed and looked out the window, only to see that snow particles had fallen outside, covering the ground with a thin layer of ice.

"Brother Shan, if you can cut the flesh of the Han people to get through the difficulties, the lower officials will not frown at all! But now that I have done so, there is no other way...... A Chu rebellion is not terrible, it is terrible to be a Chu rebellion all over the world! ”

In this winter, Emperor Yongzheng's heart was as cold as the ice outside the window, his face was extremely solemn, and he was speechless for a long time with one hand behind his back.

Xu Yuanmeng knelt on the ground and said what Zhang Tingyu said word by word, and even those disobedient words were said thoroughly, without the slightest concealment, but the more he talked about the back, the more cold sweat on his body grew.

"Daqing, is there really no way to do it now......."

Yongzheng sighed, and moved his whole body, which is simply the truest portrayal of the Qing Dynasty today, starting from the household to pay off the debts, to the fight against the Eight Masters Party, and now, he Yongzheng seems to be one step at a time, gradually unifying the power within the Qing court, but the entire Qing Dynasty is now more and more regressed a few steps.

"The New Army of the Eight Banners must be trained..... If you don't practice the Qing Dynasty, it's gone..... But this person's heart also has to be grasped, if we don't grasp the hearts of the Han people, we can't sustain it anyway by relying on our Eight Banners, and there will be no chance to get out of the way when the time comes......"

A trace of fear flashed in Yongzheng's eyes, people in the world only knew that Chu Shun had no room to retreat, but the Qing Dynasty had no room to retreat. Once the country is surrendered, how will the Eight Banners Nation, which has only more than one million people, deal with itself?

Xu Yuanmeng sighed and said: "Zhang Tingyu's meaning is very simple, the Qing Dynasty can no longer put all the pressure on the Han people, in that case, the Han people want power...... If the dynasty wants the Manchu and Han families, they have to really show the sincerity of their families. If the Qing Dynasty can't give it, it's another Chu rebellion! ”

Yongzheng was silent for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Why can't I understand in my heart? Chu rebelled to play the banner of the Han people, how could there be a so-called Manchu Shangshu in the court of the Han people? ”

"If I want to restore the unification of the Qing Dynasty, I can't really expect the Eight Banners New Army to be invincible in the world, and in the end I still have to count on the hearts of the Han people...... This meat has to be cut from the body of the Eight Banners! ”

In the end, a trace of determination flashed on Yongzheng's face, he had already understood, all the luck and evasion now are useless, and even very terrible, because the current Fu Han army, what is most lacking is time, and what the Qing Dynasty lacks is also the time to change itself, it can be said that after one of the two sides finishes sorting out the interior, a new national battle will not be far away.

But this is in Xu Yuanmeng's ears, but there is a murderous aura, you know, cutting the meat of the Eight Banners is simply cutting your own meat! Today's Eight Banners system can be said to be the foundation of the banner people, and among the more than one million people in the entire Eight Banners, how many people have relied on the Eight Banners system to become scholars, generals, commanders, deputy commanders, staff leaders, assistant leaders, leaders, leaders, and guards.......

How many people have passed the system of the Eight Banners, and in just over ten years, they have risen directly from the Internal Affairs Office to the Cabinet, the Governor and even the local feudal officials, as for the local Taoists and prefects, there are countless people, and their efforts are very simple, that is, the origin of the Eight Banners.

In contrast, it is even more difficult for Han scholars to become an official than to ascend to the sky, not to mention that they have been crawling in the scientific examination field with decades of hard study, and it is even more difficult to get in, not to mention that Han scholars have to start from the grassroots level, and it is even more difficult to rise to a high position. In this case, the Qing Dynasty wanted to win the hearts of the Han people, and there was little way to do it.

The only way is to cut your own flesh to appease the hearts of the Han people in the world.

"Your Majesty, the servants think that at the moment of national disaster, the Eight Banners will be able to understand the emperor's good intentions......."

Xu Yuanmeng seemed to be talking in a dream, he didn't believe what he said, if the Eight Banners could really understand the emperor's good intentions, why would the situation be like this?

On October 28, the rain in Jiangnan seemed a little dense, and the weather began to become extremely cold, but for the current Fu Han army, it had initially completed its goal, that is, to swallow the entire Jiangnan.

Starting from the south of the Huai River, it has now become the land of the Fu Han army, and the prefectures and counties north of the Huai River have also occupied a lot, from Fengyang Mansion to Sizhou, and then to Huai'an Mansion, the city has been planted with the big red banner of the Fu Han Army.

Although in this process, many gentry in the south of the Yangtze River also took hostile actions against the Fu Han army, but in the face of cannons and muskets, these rural rich people naturally could not have the slightest impact, their soil enclosures were blasted, their families were slaughtered one by one, and the remaining property became the spoils of war of the Fu Han army.

But no matter how clean Jiangnan was, all he ate in his mouth were some scraps, which made Ning Yu feel a little unhappy. Fortunately, at this time, Ning Yu also began to free himself from the daily clutter, and he began to cast his eyes on Zhejiang and Fujian, where there was still a piece of fat meat, which was exuding fragrance, waiting for him to devour it.

"Dadu Governor, now the battle of Jiangnan has been completely victorious, and the remnants of the Qing army have now been wiped out, together with other rebels, our army has annihilated 58,000 Qing troops in these four months, captured more than 89,000 enemies, and obtained a total of 3 million taels of silver, and the fertile land is countless, roughly estimated to be more than 5 million mu......"

Dong Ce had a little excitement on his face, this time he made a fortune, the wealth of the south of the Yangtze River is really incomparable to other places, but the battle has made the current Fu Han army eat a belly.

Speaking of which, since the Fu Han army entered Jiangnan, it was actually fighting against the Qing army in Jiangning, and after Fan Shiyi was arrested, there was no large-scale counterattack by the Qing army, but the real killers were those gentry in the south of the Yangtze River, who were not loyal to the Qing Dynasty and did not obey the Fu Han army, and just wanted to be the little overlord of their own world, which was unacceptable to Ning Yu.

Therefore, in order to get a clean Jiangnan, Ning Yu no longer cares about those so-called bottles and cans, in addition to the first division, several other main divisions, including the third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh divisions, more than 50,000 people were all engaged in the battle to eliminate these gentry, and only then did they win such a big victory.

Ning Yu had a smile on his face, "I didn't care much about the war this time, you did a good job." ”

Dong Ce listened to Ning Yu's rare compliment, and seemed very excited, he gave a military salute and said: "Governor, the fighting spirit of the army is available now, let's drive straight into Zhejiang and take Zhejiang!" ”

Speaking of which, now because of the help of Sun Wencheng, the ghost in Tianzi No. 1, the form of the entire Zhejiang is almost completely transparent for the Fu Han Army, which is a rare piece of fat for everyone, before Dong Ce, there have been many people who have asked Ning Yu to fight, and even the officers and soldiers of the first division want to further fight Hangzhou after occupying Jiaxing.

Ning Yu shook his head, "The situation in Zhejiang has developed to this point, and the armed attack has actually become a bit inferior...... You can surround it, but you can't hit it. ”

"What does the Metropolitan Governor mean, is it to persuade Zhejiang?" Dong Ce quickly understood what Ning Yu meant, but he was calculating in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.

"That's right, the situation in Zhejiang should be slow rather than urgent, slow rather than moving. At the beginning, I asked the first division to go to Jiaxing, in addition to responding to the Lu family, but also hoping to put pressure on Hangzhou. ”

Ning Yu stood up and paced slowly, sneering: "The purpose of sending Sun Wencheng back to Hangzhou was to sabotage the Qing court's regimental training strategy and transfer the Manchu and Han disputes of the Qing court. With Zhejiang's precedent in front, Yongzheng is afraid that he will not dare to use Han people anymore. ”

"In order to better promote the surrender of Zhejiang, I am ready to take the Governor Praetorian Brigade and the Seventh Division to surround Hangzhou with the First Division!"

Hangzhou City, now has been completely blocked, everyone is allowed to enter but not out, Zhejiang Governor Li Fu after the Lu family fled, he was a little more worried, that day he also went to the scene to check, the dead bodies everywhere only made Li Fu frown, but when he knew that there were less than ten people in the Han Army spies that day, he gasped.

After all, when Li Fu travels on weekdays, there are dozens of guards around him, which means that as long as the Fu Han army is willing to be ruthless, it is very possible to kill him...... Therefore, after returning that day, Li Fu not only added guards to himself, but also blocked the entire city of Hangzhou to ensure that everything was safe.

However, no matter how Li Fu blockades, there is one person in this city who will not be affected, and that is the current Hangzhou weaving Sun Wencheng. Since he was originally responsible for monitoring Jiangnan, he was very familiar with the situation in Jiangnan, and ordinary blockades couldn't stop him.

"The Metropolitan Governor has an order, and he plans to make every effort to promote peace...... As a last resort, he will not choose to storm Hangzhou. Ning Luo looked at Sun Wencheng in front of him from afar, with a trace of solemnity on his face. This means that their risk is actually much higher.

When Sun Wencheng heard the news, he only frowned slightly, and then stretched out, "The orders of the Metropolitan Governor, and the subordinates should obey them." But the key to this lies in one person. ”

"Li Fu?"

"It's not him, but Yang Zongren who is still lying on the sickbed, I feel that this person is not so simple, maybe he has realized that there is an internal response of the Fu Han army in Hangzhou City, just to be able to find out this internal response, he chose to pretend to be sick, in order to avoid our sight......"

Sun Wencheng said that later, but he became more and more firm in his thoughts, and he exhaled, "If you want to surrender with Zhejiang, you must kill Yang Zongren, otherwise this person may be caught off guard at a critical time!" ”

"Then kill him....."

Ning Luoyuan had a hideous smile on his face, everyone in the world has seen the assassination methods of the MIA, but if you really want to talk about assassination, the shadow is the expert.
