Liu Zeqing said as he slapped his thigh, looking overjoyed.

Of the few things he did, only Zhou Yanru's things were relatively simple, which could be regarded as an act of repaying his kindness.

It is also very difficult for the imperial court, after all, Zhou Yanru is the case personally decided by Emperor Chongzhen, and he is the first assistant who was punished, and his family property was confiscated as military salary, so Liu Zeqing asked for the return of military salary and took care of Zhou Yanru's family.

This is tantamount to overturning the decision of Emperor Daxing that day, which is disloyal to the courtiers and embarrassing to King Fu, the newly enthroned emperor.

The imperial court could only pinch its nose and agree, and the father and son of the Hou family were separated, which was a split between Liu Zeqing and the Donglin Party.

When he was in Shandong and Huai'an, Liu Zeqing, in order to gain a foothold in Huai'an, was extremely welcoming and stammering with the Donglin Party.

After the establishment of the establishment, Liu Zeqing formed a military and political alliance with Ma Shiying and others, and naturally wanted to completely cut off the Donglin Party.

The two ends of the first rat will not make the Donglin Party forgive Liu Zeqing's betrayal, but will offend a powerful faction like Ma Shiying.

Although in fact, Ma Shiying could no longer restrain his subordinates, and when he was established, even Huang Degong did not notify Ma Shiying in advance, but the martial artists in each town made a decision before informing Ma Shiying of the result.

Ma Shiying also knew the opportunity, and immediately took the lead in supporting it, and as a result, he achieved his current status as the first civil minister.

The weakest must be the Donglin Party, which is indecisive and contentious internally.

Shi Kefa and others also never expected that this dynasty has been controlling martial arts with literature for more than 200 years, and the record of military generals in the Wanli period is that civil officials need to hold a bow in their left hand, press a sword in their right, and worship them in green clothes and hats like slaves, otherwise they will be impeached for rudeness.

In military and government affairs, they are all civilian officials, not to mention supporting major affairs.

No one thought that under the evolution of the country, the generals could no longer be suppressed at all.

Zheng Longfang couldn't help but be surprised when he heard these words.

is so arrogant, will it end in trouble?

Perhaps seeing the jealousy and fear on Zheng Longfang's face, Liu Zeqing stopped smiling and said coldly: "You don't have to worry about anything, the Son of Heaven is what I support, shouldn't I enjoy happiness in Huai'an?" But if you have some conscience, with this merit, as long as Lao Tzu does not rebel, the wealth of this life should be allowed to me! You don't have to think too much, train the soldiers, garrison the counties with peace of mind, pay for food, don't make the soldiers hungry, don't lose the money and food to Lao Tzu, this is your serious errand! ”

"Yes, Dashuai!"

And every man bowed down according to the old custom, and then promised by the old salutation.

Liu Zeqing didn't mind, and waved his hand, which was to order the generals to retreat.

After the generals retreated, Liu Zeqing took the drawings in front of him again and discussed them seriously with the Qingke who was proficient in garden architecture.

……

Li Huajing and Liu Zhigan were ordered to come out together, and neither of them felt that the errand in front of them was difficult, but they were more relaxed with their expressions.

Li Huajing was originally a camp officer of the Chinese army, and this position is not a henchman among henchmen, and he can't sit on it.

Most of Liu Zeqing's family soldiers are in the hands of Li Huajing and Liu Zhigan, which is the foundation of Liu Zeqing's life, and the main barracks established with a large number of family members as the core is the most elite part of Liu Zeqing's department.

There are hundreds of families in the main barracks of more than 3,000 people, most of them are middle and lower-level military attachés, and almost all the soldiers are wearing armor, although most of them are cotton armor, only a few are iron armor, but this armor rate is already a rare elite division in the Ming military camp.

In the Chinese army, there are more than 1,000 families, most of whom are from Caozhou, and the rest are also from the vicinity of Caozhou.

They are all Liu Zeqing's well-fed confidants, all of them are strong in martial arts, and there are many who can shoot immediately.

When the Qing army entered the customs a few years ago, Liu Zeqing soldiers did not dare to fight, and later the Qing soldiers retreated, but he took these families to plunder in Shandong and other places, expanded his family team with a large number of acres of land and gold and silver, and equipped the regular barracks, it is because of this that Liu Zeqing jumped from an ordinary general to a strong town general.

When Li Huajing was ordered to go out, he brought 300 soldiers from the main barracks, and at the same time brought 100 soldiers out of the Chinese army.

More than 400 people surrounded the designated area of the mansion, and then the soldiers went from house to house to clear the people.

A large number of soldiers rushed into the houses like wolves and tigers, and ordered the people in the mansions to go out only with their belongings, and those who dared to delay or disobey orders were beaten with guns and scabbards.

Li Huajing and Liu Zhigan rode horses and watched from a distance, and the people who gathered around to watch were afraid that there were thousands of people, but the two young generals didn't care at all, but just sent some soldiers to separate the onlookers from a distance.

The guest soldiers have been stationed in Huai'an for a long time, and everyone has a good understanding of the temper of Liu Zeqing and these guest generals, but no one dares to talk about it at will outside, but if you see the hearts of many Huai'an people, I am afraid that you can only see the raging fire.

These Shandong soldiers are too hateful!

Forcibly seize the localities, set up tax cards, and demarcate areas to collect grain.

Those who couldn't hand over the money and food were first beaten and scolded, and then they were arrested and shackled, and the man was dragged to the yamen to beat the board.

If they still can't hand it over, they will directly send troops to the people's homes to loot and take away all valuable items.

If anyone resists and refuses, he will be killed on the spot.

In the past few months, I don't know how many ordinary people have lost their families or been forced to flee into exile.

Even the wealthy family is not having a good time, and there are countless cases of being robbed, or being robbed by guest soldiers pretending to be bandits, and robbing the children of the family to extort money.

The guest soldiers are even robbed openly many times, and they are not inferior to the rogue bandits in burning, killing and looting.

All the people in the Xuhuai area hated the guest soldiers, in short, no official gentry and ordinary people felt that these officers and soldiers were here to protect their own families, on the contrary, these guest soldiers were robbers who fought with open fire.

This is also one of the reasons why when the Qing army moved south, Xu Huai and Fengshou did not resist decently.

The Ming Dynasty lost all the people's hearts, the guest soldiers poisoned the place, and the shaving order was not issued, and the Huayi conflict had not yet reached the point of irreconcilability. At that time, the suggestion of the Han officials in the court was to follow the Han with Manchu, simply clear the people and grow their hair, and make it easy to obey, so that everyone would be a family and not a people. Tribe. spear and shield, and this new dynasty will be successfully established.

Or like the Liao and Jin before, the Liao people ignored the Han people's clothing and hair accessories, and the Jin people promoted shaving their hair for a period of time, and later gave up due to the fierce resistance of the Han people in the north.

The Mongol colonizers in China had a very heavy mentality, and it may have been like herders grazing, as long as there was a supply of milk and beef, the herdsmen would not interfere too much in the affairs of the herd.

Because of this, it has never intended to interfere with the people's clothing and hair accessories in China for nearly a hundred years.

Even so, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the influence of Hu Feng and Hu customs on China was not small, and in the early Ming Dynasty, the etiquette and official system were reformulated, the rules and regulations were reformulated, the prestige of Han officials was restored, and the hairstyle and clothing of Hu people were banned, and Zhu Yuanzhang also spent a lot of effort to turn it around.

The Manchurians are determined to make the Han Dynasty Manchu, not only to make the gentry and generals surrender, but also to fully grasp the people.

Then use the literary prison to suppress the Han people's thoughts, use the Eight Banners as the core, and use the Manchu to control the Han.

It was not until the Daoguang period that Lin Zexu was burdened with heavy responsibilities and set a precedent for the Han people to be sent to the Qin, and when it came to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, it was only when the Han people were appointed to supervise and supervise the people.

When the Qing army arrived at Xu Huai, the people. Tribe. The spear and shield did not rise, but there were deep local contradictions, just like Hebei, Shandong, Henan and other places that were ravaged by the rogue and Ming officers and soldiers, the Qing army fell in despair as soon as it arrived, and after many years, it was less likely to resist the uprising, and the reason for this is this.

As far as the current situation is concerned, if there is a Qing army, the guest soldiers are afraid that they will immediately become rats crossing the street, and everyone will only shout and beat.

A large number of people were expelled from their homes, because of the suddenness of the incident, many people were escorted from their homes with knives and guns by the guest soldiers with blank eyes holding their bedding and a small amount of valuables.

Some families were very poor, so they were wrapped in tattered bedding and simply wrapped robes, and even rice cans and noodle jars were pushed out by carts.

As for the beds and furniture, there is no way to move them.

There are some old people and the like, who are really ruined, even if they are beaten and covered with blood on their faces, they are also clinging to the legs and feet of the guest soldiers, desperately crying and begging, begging for mercy and allowing them to carry their furniture out.

There are also some who would rather die than move out, although they only have a small courtyard and a few dilapidated houses, and they are not worth much in a place like Huai'an Fucheng, but this is the root of their life here, once they move out, they have no money to buy real estate, they have no houses elsewhere, and there is no acre of land, which means that there is no place to live now.

"General, general, give me a way to live."

An old woman was like crazy, seeing Li Huajing and Liu Zhigan riding horses not far away, she didn't care about being beaten and her face was covered with blood, but she still struggled to crawl over.

Several guest soldiers didn't stop for a while, and let the old woman crawl towards Li Huajing and Liu Zhigan.

There was a long trail of blood on the ground, and several women and children were crying and crawling over, not knowing whether they wanted to persuade or to come together to intercede.

"Is this what you did?" Li Huajing has always been in a relationship with Liu Zhigan, and the two discussed going to the restaurant together to have a drink at night, as for the errand of the county Lafuzi, Li Huajing said that he didn't need Liu Zhigan to work hard, he could do it alone.

The two were talking happily, and when they saw the scene in front of them, the faces of the two young generals turned cold.

"Pull it down." Li Huajing said angrily: "They are all old errands, and they can't do such a trivial thing?" Pull me down and behead me, and see who else dares! ”

The pro-soldiers who got the order did not hesitate at all, the two of them set up the old woman, and bowed their heads with orders, the old woman was ignorant and didn't know what was going on, but subconsciously lowered her head according to the order.

In the midst of the exclamation, another soldier pushed the knife with a bowl in his hand, and the sharp blade pushed through the person's neck, cutting off the backbone, and a white-haired head had fallen to the ground, and blood gushed out wildly, staining the ground red.
