The first "literary prison" of the small court of the Han army came to an end, when Wu Weiye was released from the cell, the Shilin in northern China invariably breathed a sigh of relief, of course, this is not to say that Wu Weiye's influence is very huge, in fact, although Wu Meicun was an important member of the "Restoration Society" that year, and wore the hat of loyalty and righteousness of "cherishing the homeland", but since he renegade from the Qing court Hanlin editing, this Qinggao halo was taken away by himself, In the eyes of many Confucians similar to Gu Yanwu's rank, it is a little disdainful, and after this arrest, the reason why Shilin supported him was mainly because this person is indeed the most outstanding literary scholar of today's era, and it can be said that no one in the world can compare with him in terms of poetry, so many far-sighted Confucians have to consider this issue from the perspective of cultural protection. It is a great pity not to say it.

The second reason is that Shilin hopes to use the Wu Weiye incident to test the cultural scale of the Han army. In fact, the political purpose behind Wu Weiye's case is also very simple, basically anyone with a brain can see the meaning of the Han army bureaucrats "killing chickens to show monkeys" - since this year, the Han King Lin Feng's pro-unified army has bloodbathed Liaodong, the rise of the Han Dynasty in the north has been unstoppable, aside from other factors, from a military point of view, throughout the entire Yellow River Basin, this elite army under Lin Feng is almost an almost invincible existence, whether it is the remnants of the Qing court or Yang Qilong's peasant rebel army, Or the Mongol iron cavalry of Horqin and Zhunger could not destroy the Lin Han Dynasty in a short time, so how to enter the ruling class of this northern empire became Shilin's greatest concern.

This time, a group of bureaucrats represented by Wu Zhirong of the Han Army Metropolitan Procuratorate made a challenge on the "Yuanyuanqu" is actually the first step of the imperial declaration - as we all know, the Tartar court has basically finished, so here we can't help but remind the people, now the master riding on the head of the people has been replaced, everyone's eyes are a little brighter, the great Han King His Royal Highness has basically had the spirit of the king, saying that the emperor is just around the corner, and any act that dares to challenge or is suspected of challenging is a violation of the current lawIn a sense, this kind of activity, like orders such as "keeping braids" or "cutting braids", is part of the maintenance of feudal rule, and there is no qualitative difference in maintaining the authority of the dictatorship, putting aside the aura of ultra-nationalism that hides it.

Gu Yanwu's visit to Lin Feng this time was for the purpose of communicating and compromising with Shilin and the emerging empire. After meeting Gu Yanwu, Lin Feng spent a lot of time during this time to understand the mainstream of contemporary culture, although he had learned this kind of embryonic free thought in middle school textbooks, but now it is obviously not so enough after real contact, in the end to deal with exam questions and govern the country are two things that are out of ear, in fact, in his impression, traditional Chinese scholarship has always been quite unified in this aspect, so since there is no debate, it should naturally be very monotonous, the so-called" From the perspective of the King of Han, since the ass absolutely commands the head, of course this system is very perfect, and Lin Feng certainly does not want to jump out of who will make irresponsible remarks to him when he plans to collect taxes or start a war.

Forced by the current situation of political and military struggle, it is certainly very inappropriate to pull Gu Yanwu and Huang Zongxi out and behead them, not to mention that these two people are famous all over the world and have many disciples, even if they kill all their relatives, it may be difficult to achieve the goal, so how to stifle this kind of democratic thinking in the embryonic state has become very technical, and it seems that ideological and cultural thinking should still be based on the use of ideological and cultural means as much as possible.

Through the extensive investigation of Wang Shirong's intelligence system, Lin Feng found that the academic thinking of the current era is very vague and contradictory, which really surprised him, because in the education he received, this era is absolutely dark, as we all know, the achievements of the Chinese in humanities and sociology in these centuries are really lackluster, at least the history books mentioned this aspect is either Montesquieu or Voltaire, but now from the collected intelligence, this concept seems to be in danger of being subverted, As far as Lin Feng now knows, this vague idea of democracy is definitely not one or two in today's China, but occupies a considerable part of the market, although there are radical conflicts between them, but except for the doctrine of Huang Lao Zhuangzi, most of them wear a Confucian hat.

According to Wang Shirong and other professionals, this thing is likely to be from the time of Zhang Juzheng of the Ming Dynasty, and it was compared from the personal ability of the emperor and the minister, to be fair, this comparison does have a certain degree of scientificity, because the emperor is transmitted through **, with great uncertainty, and politicians are a very professional industry, so the comparison between the two is indeed clear at a glance. This argument can be verified in the comparison between Zhang Juzheng and Emperor Mingshenzong, and the fact shows that a well-functioning cabinet is indeed much stronger than an emperor who is not sure whether he is wise or not, so many Confucian scholars have taken it a step further here—if the emperor did nothing like Emperor Shenzong or Emperor Wanli, put the country high in the imperial palace, and handed over the country to a group of virtuous and powerful ministers to manage, and then the work of the Tianxia Shilin was widely supervised. So shouldn't the country be in a better shape?!

Under the influence of this trend of thought, the "Donglin Party" appeared quickly, first a group of famous scholars took the lead, and then a large number of grassroots scholars have participated, flourishing throughout the country, pointing and pointing at the government of the Ming Dynasty, and calling it "Qingliu", but the emperor also quickly realized the threat of this landlord class liberalization to the imperial power, so he immediately cultivated the "eunuch party" to confront and suppress, it is clear that this ideological war brought a huge disaster to the entire empire, when the Ming Empire collapsed, Neither side emerged as a winner.

This problem became more complicated in the hands of Lin Feng, in fact, before he took over, his predecessor Manchu Dynasty was simply terrible in this regard, among which the regent Ao Bai was almost idiot, he simplified this complex problem, in short, it was solved by massacre, and its manifestation was the "literal prison", in the past few decades when they entered the Central Plains, they were basically a steel knife in one hand and a big cake in the other, focusing on nationalism and democratic ideas to carry out crazy suppression, Desperately consolidating the vested rights and interests of the handful of primitive chieftains of the Eight Banners, the representative of which is the case of "History of the Ming Dynasty", which borrowed a big hat to uphold orthodoxy and wantonly slaughtered progressive scholars, killing nearly 10,000 scholars before and after, and killing democracy in the bud to the core. At this moment, with the rise of the Han military group represented by Lin Feng, and with the relaxation of the brutal repression of the Manchu Dynasty, this democratic idea immediately rebounded violently, and began to have a tendency to further combine with ultra-nationalism.

Gu Yanwu and Huang Zongxi are their representatives.

Of course, as far as the entire Shilin is concerned, they are not considered to have an advantage, and there are also a lot of Confucian scholars who maintain tradition, in the end, Zhu Yuanzhang has used the eight strands of literature and scholars for nearly three hundred years, and the dull-minded fools still account for the majority, so these radicals can only use Confucian Confucius and Mencius as a cover, and interpret the Four Books and Five Classics separately, in an attempt to redivide the functions and powers of "Ming Jun", "Virtuous Minister" and "Scholar".

After understanding the actual situation, Lin Feng made a natural choice, to be honest, he and the situation are very different from Zhao Kuangyin, the Han Army Group was created by himself, whether it is the army or the civilian system, he has absolute authority, and the guy who seeks to seize the throne is very different, there is no need to compromise with any Shilin, but as a latecomer, of course he understands the great power of this kind of thinking, in fact, he absolutely does not want China to have a Cromwell, And this kind of ideological struggle is certainly a long-term and arduous battle to pull the ground, and as far as the current situation is concerned, this so-called "democratic thought" itself is also a mess, scholars from different camps debate and attack each other, and fight fiercely with each other, Lin Feng has absolute confidence to divide and win over this group of rookies - in fact, Lin Feng does not intend to blindly resist their views, the so-called take their essence and remove their dross, take Huang Zongxi's doctrine as an example, what is "revitalizing industry and commerce" and "opening the way" Lin Feng absolutely raised his hands in favor of this, and as for "returning the government to the people" or "abolishing the imperial examination", "opening schools" and engaging in supervision, it is very avoidable.

This territory was cut out by Lao Tzu with a knife and a gun, when a cow is a horse and swallows his breath, sweats and sweats like a dog, these bastards take a big hat of "democracy" and take it without saying a word, really I am a turtle bastard?!

In Lin Feng's memory, in addition to a bunch of fools in North America, many countries on this planet are engaged in imperial and dictatorship, and they have not seen it anymore, they are still thriving, and they are not seen by His Majesty the Tsar and Wilhelm II, they are all in the electrical revolution and still take the lead, if it is not for the world war, who dares to say that people's positions will collapse? ! It can be seen that the so-called "democracy" is mostly a howl of deception, and it is likely to be crooked.

Anyway, we lack everything in Huaxia Shenzhou, but there is no shortage of hot-blooded men, if we go wrong, the people of insight in the future generations will definitely come out to make a revolution, then it is better to hand over this arduous task to a stronger buddy, Lin Feng thought comfortingly, anyway, this emperor Lao Tzu is decided, and the road of autocracy and dictatorship is also decided, even if there are a little sequelae, it doesn't matter, it's not only the seventeenth century now, it's still a long time, the great holy and selfless heroes have more opportunities, Whether it is democracy, progress or revolution, there are still hundreds of years to play slowly, but Lao Tzu will not accompany him. After I die, I don't care if he floods.

After firming up his thoughts, His Royal Highness the King of Han threw the great thinker Mr. Gu Yanwu to your hotel to raise, neither received nor slack, anyway, good wine and good meat will never be treated badly, no matter what, this talent is good or not, and it is a good signboard in Beijing. Now Lin Feng's whole body and mind have been devoted to the construction of the army, and after experiencing the ideological struggle, Lin Feng also understood a truth, these days, his father and mother are not as good as the cannons, as long as the army is controlled in his hands, there is nothing that cannot be solved.

At this time, the year 1685 was coming to an end, and the General Staff of the Han Dynasty was extremely busy, and in addition to the large number of newly recruited recruits who needed to be rigorously trained, the General Staff would also undergo the severe test of the first Spring Festival vacation. In last year's military reform, the Han army had a small military movement, although it was severely suppressed in the end, but it also fell into a by-product of vacation, in the current military system, the Han officers and soldiers share a fourteen-day vacation benefits, one is seven days of "agricultural leave", and the other is seven days of "annual leave" -- as we all know, the army is no more than other institutions, and must maintain a high degree of vigilance under any circumstances, especially in the current period of cruel war, So the implementation of this system has become very difficult, in fact, at the very beginning, for the implementation of this system or not there has been a fierce debate within the General Staff of the Han Army, from the Chinese tradition, soldiers belong to the cheapest war consumables, and the social status is also terrible low, there has always been no welfare at all, the so-called "when I was young, I left home and went back, and the country voice did not change my sideburns", it was definitely not a waste, and it was normal for teenagers to be pulled into the seventies and eighties before they could retire and go home. Therefore, this leave system of the Han army is definitely a revolutionary move in China's military history, so it is impossible to find any reference in history, and a group of staff officers of the General Staff really feel embarrassed by this.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the military pressure of the Han army is also very heavy, in addition to the Guards Corps directly under Lin Feng, the field troops everywhere except for Ma Ying and Wang Dahai are suspected of insufficient troops, and the Han army currently does not have any second-line corps to rotate, so if the vacation system is implemented, then this military defect will be even worse, just imagine, if the enemy army on the border takes advantage of the Han army's vacation to launch an offensive, it will definitely be a disaster. In fact, as far as Lin Feng knows, since the beginning of winter, the officers and soldiers of the Han Dynasty have been looking forward to this only opportunity to take a vacation, so that they can go back to see their wives and children, if they can't meet this "little" wish, then the resulting negative impact can be imagined, not only will they lose the trust of the army, but also their morale will be greatly hit.

After much deliberation, Lin Feng finally made a final decision in a heated debate that this system must be implemented. Just kidding, if the military regulations have become child's play, then how will the team be brought in the future?! What's more, this system is also from Lin Feng's "Chrysostom", so this issue is likely to rise into a political event - the so-called "monarch has no jokes", as a monarch but can't fulfill his promises, then what prestige is there?!

After making up its mind, the General Staff Headquarters had to dispatch a large number of staff officers to count the places of origin and the distance traveled back to their hometowns by soldiers and officers, and to draw up the most rigorous schedule of rotational leave, and the supporting rewards and benefits must also be arranged in place, so the military logistics work related to this was also quite huge and complicated.

According to the emergency order issued by Lin Feng personally, Zhangjiakou, Chengde Rehe and other border cities began to buy cattle and sheep from the Eastern Mongolian tribes in large quantities, and the Jinhui Chamber of Commerce in Beijing also received a large number of orders, this time Lin Feng was determined to do this matter vigorously, this reason is actually very simple, if you want to let tens of thousands of officers and soldiers under his command as cannon fodder to die, to create an iron army that cannot be dragged down, not bad, it is definitely not possible to spend a lot of money, and the king of Han asked himself if he has the ability to create any glorious revolutionary ideas, Then we can only adopt all kinds of humane means to envelop and buy the hearts of the military.

The first annual leave of the Han army was very comfortable, in fact, when Lin Feng came up with this package, the officers of the Han army, including Zhou Peigong, were all dumbfounded, as far as the seventeenth century China is concerned, this set of benefits is simply warm and considerate to the extreme, it can be said that there is no one before and no one has come since, and it is by no means inferior to the traditional bus examination.

Under Lin Feng's plan, during this big vacation, the Han military government took advantage of the opportunity of losing fat and cheap livestock in winter, and purchased a total of 550,000 cattle and sheep in the areas controlled by Horqin and even Zhunger in Eastern Mongolia, and then slaughtered them collectively and transported them to various military camps, and each soldier will receive 12 catties of beef and mutton, 2 catties of wine, 2 catties of salt and 1 catty of sauce, in addition to receiving a month's military salary in advance, in order to facilitate the soldiers to travel in the ice and snow, the General Staff plans to put in a total of nearly 6,000 mules and horses of various types as a means of transportation. In addition, a large number of civilian houses were requisitioned on various official roads to set up military post stations for soldiers to rest, cavalry units were dispatched along the way to provide security protection, and for the sake of weather, each soldier returning home could receive two pairs of cloth shoes to keep warm on the road.

In addition to these equal benefits, the Han military government promulgated a labor order, where the Han military families, local yamen must send officials to the door to condole, those with minor children per household are rewarded with five taels of sugar, the elderly are rewarded with two catties of meat, the head of the local security village provides two hundred catties of firewood for each household, and the militia Ding Zhuang goes out to repair the house once, so that every Han soldier must have no worries, and at the same time, the military police and the metropolitan guards of the Metropolitan Procuratorate have come out of the nest to block all brothels and casinos in the territory of the Han army, and strictly prohibit any returning officers and soldiers from prostituting and gambling and squandering military salaries. The officers and soldiers were forced to use the money to appease the military families.

This large-scale labor army activity shook the entire north, when the news came out, the princes around the country were all worried, and the Qing officers and soldiers hostile to the Han army were also envious, the most excited was the Anhui garrison that had just surrendered to the Han King, in fact, this batch of lucky people did catch up with a group of clippers, Lin Feng did not have time to reorganize the green battalion army of this group of surrenders to Cheng launched this plan, in order to show that it is impossible to discriminate between people and buy people's hearts, so this good and bad troops also enjoyed a handful. The only regrettable thing is that the Liu Lusi Division of the Third Army of the Han Army's Infantry, which has been stationed in Anhui at this moment, has missed a good opportunity because of the relationship between military operations and the distance of the station, and more than 10,000 officers and men of the Third Army have missed a good opportunity and have not been able to enjoy this vacation opportunity.

In addition to the Third Army's Liu Lusi Division, the newly recruited more than 20,000 recruits were also deprived of the right to visit family leave, and when this decision was made, there was no backlash, in fact, more than 20,000 people have only been away from home for a month, if it is a bit unbelievable if it is immediately on vacation, so when the order is announced, everyone including the recruits themselves also feel that it is taken for granted, because there are veterans who are treated preferentially as an example, not only did not produce any negative emotions, but also morale is more high, Inspired by this warm and humanized military system, the cohesion of the New Army has also been greatly strengthened.

Since Lin Feng returned to the south, the Han military government has recruited a total of more than 25,000 recruits, divided into two groups, infantry and cavalry, mainly from the Ningjin, Nuergan and Suiyuan Chahar regions, mainly Han Chinese, training at Fengtai Military Station and Luanzhou and Shanhaiguan Military Station. Correspondingly, the troops of the generals in various places will also carry out a small-scale blood exchange operation, and a group of elite veterans and low-ranking officers with actual combat experience will be transferred to Beijing, and in addition to restoring the structure of the Second Guards Cavalry Army, Lin Feng will also expand the Third Guards Infantry Army to form a mobile strategic reserve force with more than 40,000 soldiers.

It should be fortunate that the long winter in northern China, in such harsh weather, the Mongol Dzungar Division, with the main cavalry as the main force, under the control of the Horqin Alliance, should have launched a fierce offensive against Shanxi regardless of losses, so that Lin Feng was able to seize the time to reorganize his army in these few months to deal with the large-scale war of 1686.
