Since the implementation of the Qing Dynasty's apportionment into the mu, on the surface, it seems that the tax and silver will indeed increase in theory, and the number of hidden households is decreasing, but the money has not been collected, and for the people at the bottom, they have not felt the real benefits.

Zhang Tingyu knew some of the tricks in this, although there was a division into the mu, but because the gentry were not included in the category of tax collection, then after the following, something different appeared.

For the officials of the states and counties below, asking them to collect taxes from the gentry is equivalent to asking for money from themselves, which is naturally not in line with the principle of preferential treatment of the gentry, but the current tax is not calculated according to the capitation, according to the land register, the population can be hidden, but the land cannot be hidden, so the extra batch of silver has to find a way to hand it over.

After all, the taxes of the Qing Dynasty were collected by the gentry, and there were too many tricks that could be played here, such as changing the gentry's fields to the inferior ones, and the peasants' fields to the upper grades, so that they could collect more money as a matter of course.

The problem is that it is impossible for Zhang Tingyu to talk to Yongzheng, because he himself is a gentry family, and there is no reason to sell his interests, and there are such characters in this court, so it is impossible to put this point on the surface, and even Yongzheng will turn a blind eye when he knows it.

If Yongzheng continues to dig the corners of the gentry, I am afraid that the next day the big guys will have to rebel, after all, the Qing Dynasty is still the first, as long as the money can be received, the people will be wronged.

"The paving into the mu must be fully rolled out, and the New Army of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty is still waiting for the rice to be put into the pot."

Since this is the case, Zhang Tingyu had no choice but to sigh and follow the ministers to receive the decree, if this matter really develops to this point, I am afraid that the gentry will not object too much, after all, this meat is cut on the people's bodies after all.

Seeing that these Hanchens finally relented, Yongzheng was also very proud in his heart, and even had a little more contempt for these Hanchens, in the final analysis, they were all dogs of the Qing Dynasty, and they usually barked just to beg for a piece of meat and bones, if the master turned his face, these Hanchens would not dare to call.

I have to say that the emperors of the Qing Dynasty really understood the mentality of Hanchen, as long as their own wealth can be guaranteed, the death of these other poor legs will not hinder their eyes, but after this matter is resolved, Yongzheng will have the heart to report good news to everyone.

"Yue Zhongqi's department has news that Xining has been taken, Ta'er Temple has also been breached, Chahan Normen Khan and other great lamas have been executed by Nian Qianyao, and other rebellious lamas and monks have also been suppressed, and the epidemic in the northwest of the Qing Dynasty has almost won a big victory!"

The ministers didn't know this news, and they were also shocked at the moment, originally thinking that the rebellion in the northwest of Luobzang Danjin would continue for many years, but it was won so easily, but it was a little surprising.

Yongzheng was also quite proud in his heart, after all, he insisted on sending troops to the northwest, and Nian Qianyao and Yue Zhongqi were both promoted by themselves, which fully showed that he was still very qualified as an emperor, and as for Chu Wei not being quelled, it was completely the responsibility of the emperor.......

Prince Yi Yunxiang also stood up at this time and said loudly: "Luo Buzang Danjin has sent an envoy to my Great Qing Dynasty, and I want to ask for and protect myself, and I only hope that my Great Qing Dynasty's iron hooves can stop in Xining." ”

Xu Yuanmeng, as a university scholar, immediately said: "This battle cost countless food and salaries, and the military salary allocated alone has reached 10 million taels. Now that Luo Buzang Danjin has already claimed peace with his ministers, the servants thought that they might as well agree to it, so as to concentrate their military forces in Shandong and Henan to resist the northward advance of Chu Rebellion. ”

When Yongzheng heard Xu Yuanmeng say this, he felt a little unhappy in his heart, how good it would be to take the opportunity to beat the water dogs, if it was really a peace negotiation, what should I do if it starts again in the future?

"Hmph, Luo Buzang Tenzin wants to negotiate peace, how can this capricious villain let him continue to stay in the northwest? Yue Zhongqi, who was ordered to be young and young, continue to quell the rebellion to the end, and take back the head of Luo Buzang Danjin to me! ”

With the head of Luobzang Danjin, Yongzheng's prestige will also go further, and when the time comes, with this good medicine for external development, he may be able to digest the pain caused by internal reform.

Speaking of which at this time, Luo Buzang Danjin really regretted it in his heart, he didn't expect that although the Qing Dynasty had repeatedly suffered defeats in Huguang, it had become a bit wolf-like in the northwest, and he also overestimated the strength of his army, after all, they were all some disciples of the Yellow Sect of the Great Lama of Xining Taer Temple, Chahan Normen Khan, and the preaching was okay, and the skills of fighting were a little more fashionable, and he was grabbed and beaten by Yue Zhongqi, who was eager to climb up.

It's just that no matter how much Luo Buzang Danjin regrets it, it won't help, although he has sent an envoy to Nian Qianyao to sue for peace, but the other party's attitude is obvious, he doesn't want to talk about it at all, just blindly beats, plus the Mongolian original Zhubeile, Beizi, Gong, Taiji, etc., who held a wait-and-see attitude, also began to beat the water dogs, and led more than 100,000 rebels to submit to the Qing Dynasty, which can be regarded as a complete step.

In this case, Lobzang Danjin began to lead the rebels to the west, while the Qing army, under the leadership of Yue Zhongqi, regained the lost territory along the escape route of Lobzang Danjin, and soon took Zhenhai, Shenzhong, Nanchuan, Xichuan, Beichuan and other places, until Guolong Temple stopped.

Guolong Temple is the largest monastery of Tibetan Buddhism in Qinghai today, also known as "the mother of the monasteries on the north bank of Huangshui", its lofty status is self-evident, the most important thing is that the temple is located in Tibet through Qinghai to Inner Mongolia all over the passage, the strategic significance is very extraordinary, it has become the important place of the confrontation between Luo Bu Zang Tenzin and the Qing army.

After Luo Buzang Danjin fled west, he did not ignore Guolong Temple, but in the name of apologetics, he called on the monks of the whole temple, as well as the Duowa steward of Guolong Monastery, the steward of Jiayi, and the Aban Wenze, etc., to garrison the Hala Zhigou to resist the arrival of the Qing army.

After getting this news, Nian Qianyao in order to prevent a long delay in change, then ordered Yue Zhongqi and the forward to lead the Sultan to march quickly, and at this time Yue Zhongqi only had 3,000 Qing soldiers in his hands, and the rebels in the Hala Zhigou started a big battle, captured three mountains one after another, and destroyed ten camps of the rebels, which opened the main road to Guolong Temple.

The war drums rumbled non-stop, Yue Zhongqi was dressed in iron armor, and commanded the three thousand troops under his command to repeatedly rush and kill, although these Qing soldiers had gone through hard battles all the way, and the casualties were also heavy, but now when they arrived at Guolong Temple, they suddenly became highly moraled, the reason is very simple, Yue Zhongqi has promised that as long as Guolong Temple is taken, they can be allowed to not seal the knife for three days.

Under such a promise, the Qing soldiers almost fearlessly charged the temple, defeating the rebels of Guolong Temple, and now there are only more than 3,000 people left, hiding in the cave behind the temple to resist stubbornly.

"Bang ......."

The shotgunners of the Qing army stood in a row, and then lit the arquebus, these shotguns were from the firearms battalion, so the quality was not bad, only to see rows of projectiles were fired, and then rows of rebels fell to the ground, and the remaining rebels were not willing to continue the fierce battle with the Qing army, but withdrew to the cave.

Adjutant general Song Kejin saw the power of the guns and guns, and beat the rebels back into the cave, and the guns lost their effect, so he took a battalion of Qing soldiers and soldiers, pulled out his waist knife and fought with the rebels in the cave, but the area in the cave was small and could not be deployed.

After a while, Song Kejin escaped from the cave with people in a very embarrassed manner, but less than half of the hundreds of Qing soldiers he brought with him were left, and all of them were wounded, which was really a little down.

Yue Zhongqi snorted coldly, "A group of rats are hiding in the cave, do you think that everything can be fine?" Come on, pile up firewood and grass at the entrance of the cave, and smoke them all for me! ”

When the people heard this, they immediately went to cut down a lot of firewood and grass, and piled it up at the entrance of the cave, because it was still early spring, and the firewood and grass were all rained, but it was best to use it to make a fire, and soon a large amount of smoke was produced, and it rushed towards the cave.

The rebels of Guolong Temple were already holding their breath in the narrow cave, but now when the smoke came in, they were a little unbearable and rushed out of the hole, only to wait for them were rows of muskets, and many Qing soldiers with spears and waist knives were slashing and killing, and more than 3,000 people were covered in the hole.

The war developed to this stage, the lamas of Guolong Temple killed more than 6,000 people before and after, and there was no longer the slightest resistance force, and the Qing army was also very thrilling in this battle, heavy losses, thousands of casualties were almost the most fierce battle since entering Qinghai, just the waist knife of the officers and soldiers in Sichuan and Shaanxi, there was a shortage of three or four hundred.

After winning this battle, the Qing soldiers began to loot Guolong Temple on a large scale, and burned this temple to the ground.

Yue Zhongqi did not feel the slightest guilt in his heart, but proudly presented the battle report to Nian Qianyao, the general of Fuyuan, and told the story of the first battle of Guolong Temple in detail.

In February, after receiving the battle report, Nian Qianyao was also very excited, and soon wrote a recital to Yongzheng, saying that this victory was almost the biggest result of the Qing army since the pacification of the three feudatories, and the implication was naturally to ask for a reward.

Because Nian Qianyao was a bright and honest report this time, before the news entered the Beijing Division, Ning Yu already knew about the situation of this battle through the Military Intelligence Department, and his face became a little solemn.

"Your Majesty, now that the Qing army has won a great victory in the northwest, maybe Luobzang Danjin may not be able to hold out for so long, should we give some more support?"

After reading the secret report sent by the Military Intelligence Department, Ning Zhongyi, the deputy privy envoy, also had a bad look on his face, this Luo Buzang Tenzin was really a little useless.

In fact, before the Qing army entered Qinghai-Tibet, the Fu Han army at that time, out of the idea of holding back the footsteps of the Qing army, had actually sent a batch of captured Qing army shotguns to Luobzang Danjin through the secret channels of the military intelligence department to strengthen the opponent's strength. Of course, it was not only the Fu Han Army that did this, but also did it.

But the problem is that Luobuzang Tenzin is indeed not strong, and the battle of Guolong Temple almost wiped out his last hope, and there is not much point in giving support now.

Ning Yu felt that he had a headache, and now he was about to ascend the throne, but the Qing army had won a big victory, which was really a bit unlucky, so that Ning Yu thought carefully in his heart, whether to let the Fu Han army go north to fight another big battle, to defeat the arrogance of the Qing court.

"Forget about this support, after the battle of Guolong Temple, I am afraid that Lobzang Tenzin will not be able to fight...... But Lone is powerless to withdraw now, and it is indeed a little difficult to do. ”

Ning Yu could only sigh, the Fu Han army is now at a critical time, stepping through this hurdle and laying a good foundation, its significance is not comparable to the battle of Guolong Temple, so the matter of fighting may have to be a little later.

In fact, for Ning Yu, the last problem before the founding of the country, it is not completely unsolvable, at least for the current Fu Han army, there is still a chance, in addition to Ning Yu himself, there are also Ning Zhongyuan and the high-level ministers in the Fu Han army, the purpose is to write a book of the ancestral family law of Great Chu.

The so-called ancestral family law is naturally a joke, but in fact it is a constitution and the source of all laws.

For the feudal empire, the so-called ancestral family law is actually not a sure thing, at best, it is similar to the existence of a night pot, and it will be taken out when needed, and it will be kicked under the bed if it is not needed - so Ning Yu does not want this type of ancestral family law, even if this ancestor is himself.

Ning Yu, who has the insight of later generations, naturally understands that the ultimate fate of the feudal dynasty is to be driven into the garbage heap of history, especially in this eighteenth century, which can be called the last afterglow of the monarchy, and in another fifty years, Washington will raise troops on the North American continent against Britain and establish the United States of America, and in more than a hundred years, the monarch's crown will also fall one by one......

If it is just to overthrow the Qing Dynasty, Ning Yu will spend another two to three years at most to completely take the south, then he will be able to integrate the forces of the entire south, lead the army to the north, and completely take the Manchu Qing at that time, and then he can attack the White Lotus Sect and Zhu Yigui, and five years will be enough.

The problem is that the country taken down in this way is nothing more than changing the current Qing Dynasty to a signboard and turning it into a Great Chu, and its essence has not changed, such a feudal dynasty cannot afford the dream in Ning Yu's heart.

Only by establishing a constitution, integrating the current internal forces of the Fu Han Army, bringing all the interests to the table to discuss, and talking enough about scolding, as long as we can come up with something that everyone can accept, the foundation of the country will be stabilized.

Therefore, throughout the month of February, the Fu Han army will take out all the current things to talk, and take out all the interests for a final integration, and only when this "King James Great Chu Constitution" comes out, Ning Yu will officially ascend the throne as emperor in Nanjing.
