Chapter 513: The Peacemaker

The so-called Nanjing Raiders were unfair from the beginning.

After the target shooting exercise, the long-awaited battle of Nanjing, as Li Xiangqian sent a letter to many bureaucrats and gentry in the city, "The autumn wind and autumn rain are just in time for the supplement, and now there is a hot pot table, the delicacies are everywhere in the world, and the gentlemen are invited to taste them", and the atmosphere became strange.

The difference is that when the officers and soldiers in the city saw the "peacemaker's" all-destroying prestige, they all seemed panicked, and the veterans in the city's barracks were not many veterans, and they could still stay in Nanjing City at this time, all of them had no confidence in themselves and did not have any heart.

There are more than a dozen gates in the outer city of Nanjing, the most important at present, the defense of the north gates, is naturally the top priority, but after seeing the power of the peacemaker, no one is willing to guard the north gate, and finally only a few broken houses, were promised to guard the night on the woman, only to inspire some morale, more than a dozen people do the bow of the bird, looking at the river in the distance, once there is a wind and grass to plan to flee from the desert, it is also the responsibility to the people.

Considering that the direction of the elder army's main attack should be in the north of the city, they desperately tried their best on the city wall in the north of the city, and ordered a soldier to keep vigil every other section, in short, just outside the city, it cost countless money.

The reason why there has not been a large-scale runaway behavior is not because of how loyal and fearless they are, but because they are extremely disloyal and have no courage, and they have long been frightened.

With the help of the sand table, Xiao Tianjian could clearly understand the defense of Nanjing City, so he was very aware of the current weakness of Nanjing City, so he was not very anxious to launch an attack on Nanjing City, but after he arrived, he waited for the army to arrive.

With the help of drones, Li Xiangqian can clearly understand the defense of Nanjing City, and even those who are scurrying around in the courtyard like ants on a hot pot can also see it clearly, Nanjing City's current weakness, but is not very anxious to launch an attack on Nanjing City, but after he arrived, he played.

The old-fashioned gift is naturally gratifying, compared to the delusion of the hillbilly who tried to send away the imperial capital with some money and women, Li Xiangqian got a lot of real treasures, Song Banshu and Tang and Song Dynasty calligraphy and painting porcelain are not fresh, as for those stunning girls, they are not fresh.

Of course, one thing that made Li Xiangqian happy was that someone came to bribe and give gifts with the Gonghe Tongbao.

This is a real good news, although the Republic Tongbao has the most powerful reserves in the world, began to be implemented around the imperial capital, but also carefully, with materials can be shopped at any time, to ensure credibility, a lot of bad silver, gritted teeth and exchanged, although at the beginning some people were unwilling to receive, by the Ming government forced pit, but after forcibly pushed down, these people can buy very good goods, so this is all happy!

The economic radiation of the imperial capital is still very useful, you need to go to the imperial capital to purchase, you can't have the silver two of the Ming Dynasty, you have to exchange it for the republican Tongbao first, and then deposit it in the new money bank of the imperial capital, after getting the passbook, you can Shi Shiran go to a few merchant houses to order, this aspect of the transaction has been completely fake, go directly to the warehouse to pick up the goods.

In this process, people gradually recognized the value of Gonghe Tongbao, and when they brought the goods back to Jiangnan for sale, they also brought Gonghe Tongbao back.

Due to the chaotic political situation in Jiangnan, some people naturally put the idea on coinage, and soon, the republican Tongbao that maintained its value began to be gradually sought after.

Of course, Zhang Xianzhong, who ran away from afar, also made Li Xiangqian very sad, he really wanted to bring Zhang Xianzhong's move down and get it overseas, whether it was sent to Central and South America or India, it was all the best choice.

However, this Zhang Xianzhong has experienced all kinds of big fights in the Northwest Righteous Army, and what others say is basically regarded as a fart, and it is even more common to promise to regret the promise, and looking at the various words of the presbyterian council, I can't believe it.

Especially the "Peacemaker", anyone who has seen the power of this weapon will not want to come into contact with the Presbyterian Council.

Li Xiangqian threw the gift list on the table, with a smile on his face, judging from the situation of the gift list, it was much more ideal than they expected, and there was no situation where a large number of Confucian students ran away, which more fully showed that most of the officers and soldiers in the city actually had no fighting spirit for a long time, and they didn't even want to run, so it seemed that Nanjing City was heavily guarded, but the real situation was already disheartened, like a broken hornet's nest!

"Your intelligence department has done a really good job, I didn't expect you to secretly contact so many officers and generals, for their worries, you can reply to them, so that they don't have to worry, I can guarantee that they are not to blame for what they did in the past, for their family and family, as long as they surrender, they will be given the best protection, their surrender to the country and the people is a great achievement, in addition to the above conditions, everyone will give a certain degree of reward, if they are willing to lead an overseas colonial army, Go to Tianzhu, then I can arrange for them, send them to the military academy for training, and make other arrangements after training, and keep their original treatment!

As for their families, you also reassure them that as long as they are willing to surrender, we will immediately send people to their homes to transfer and protect their families in advance to ensure that their families will not be harmed by the local government!

And for those who are still waiting to see where the wind is going, we should strengthen contact with them, inform them of our policies, and strive to make them turn against us, even if they don't want to surrender, let them run away and become rich.

At present, there are too many people who have died in China, so let's die as few as possible! Now, overseas is full of patches of fat land, but it is occupied by a group of weak chickens, don't you feel distressed. ”

Li Xiangqian is actually very aware of the trouble in Nanjing City, the trouble in Jiangnan, although the defenders in the city can't withstand the gasoline bombs of the Elders' Church even if they resist with one heart, but although the elder army is sharp, it is not easy to take Jiangnan.

Therefore, in these days, what he is most worried about is not the matter of the elder army attacking the city, on the contrary, how to govern after the battle, how many cities in the south of the Yangtze River, once they surrender, the bureaucrats who have mixed in, without the support of the new civil servants, will inevitably be in chaos.

In this case, even if Shi Kefa shouts and fights back, it is others who think that he is a madman, and Shi Kefa is a person, not to mention his moral value and character, his political power and dominance are really embarrassing.

On April 17, the Qing army entered the camp 20 miles away from Yangzhou, and the next day the troops came to the city, and from April 19, from Li Benshen, Yang Chengzu, Liu Liangzuo and others began to surrender, and on April 24, the surrenderers were numerous, and the Qing army opened artillery strikes, and the city was broken at night.

The imperial capital personnel who were active in Nanjing City were caught by Shi Kefa, and he roared and killed, but no one listened to him at all, and he was quickly released as ordinary businessmen.

Shi Kefa's efforts did not achieve very good results, and there were still many people in the imperial capital, and even started to operate in the open place, some of them even hid in the camps of some officials and soldiers, and many people hid in various capacities.

After receiving the invitation, Shi Kefa was full of hideousness, due to the change of history, the Council of Elders had no interest in Yangzhou, but was very fond of Shanghai, a barren place, and what shocked him the most was that his own family went out to buy, and also used the so-called salt and various products produced in the imperial capital, and his Yulu, even some of them became a republican treasure.

The most terrible thing is that all this is not forced to use, but an active act!

You must know that he is not ignorant about the affairs of the imperial capital, and Shi Kefa has collected the news there in great detail through countless friends and children.

Beggars were not allowed to appear in the imperial capital.

The price of grain in the imperial capital has been incredibly stable for many years.

In the imperial capital, even if it is a peddler and a pawn, the standard of living is not worse than that of ordinary wealthy families in Jiangnan, and it is very advantageous in eating various non-staple foods.

All of this made him feel incredible, and he felt that if Da Ming could master these methods, couldn't he continue to do so.

However, something that scared him appeared.

That's hair.

When those elders between demons first appeared, the image of their short hair was very scary, you know, I Daqing asked people to shave their hair, and they also left half of their hair to comb and braid their hair, and these so-called elders were all shaved.

Fortunately, except for the men who were arrested to serve as soldiers, the imperial capital basically would not allow them to shave their hair without permission, and on weekdays, they also paid attention to the freedom of dress and hairdress.

However, it can't stand up to the subtle propaganda of the elders, and the reasons for their rationalization of shaving hair are also formal and incredible.

First of all, those who are soldiers should wear new helmets, pay attention to the treatment of head wounds at any time, and it is inconvenient to have long hair.

At the same time, the propaganda power of the imperial capital, with hygiene as a breakthrough, found out that people are afraid of death, and said the power of bacteria, the so-called "if the hygiene is not good, it will be difficult to protect the small life", even the people in Jiangnan have passed it on by word of mouth, whether it is soap products or the legendary microscope, it is not an unfamiliar topic in Jiangnan.

But it's a proper change of summer.

In the end, Shi Kefa decided to go to the banquet, as long as he arrived at the banquet, he righteously accused the other party of how perverse, how to disregard human ethics, and destroy the sacred learning......

Qian Qianyi, Shi Kefa, Wang Duo, Zhu Zhichen, Zhao Zhilong, Liang Yungou and others are all famous ministers in Nanjing.

When they got on a small wooden boat and slowly approached Li Xiangqian's speedboat, they were amazed when they looked at the sea-going ship with a reflective exterior and obviously a metal hull.

The yacht is very tall, but at the stern there is a small ladder to get on and off the boat, and in fact it is also a place to swim in the sea, and the design here is quite reasonable, so they all climbed up slowly.

The yacht is divided into three floors, Li Xiangxiang is sitting on the floor of the second floor, there is a table converted from a launch pad, on the table is a lively hot pot, the small pot in front of Li Xiangxiang is hot, steaming, it looks unclear, and he is holding a pile of paper in his hand, but he is watching with relish.

Shi Kefa is relatively young, compared to the history of dying at the age of 44, now at the age of fifty, but in the past few years, he has worked hard, and his body may not be stronger than others, but he is also at the forefront.

Li Qian looked at these people, did not raise his head, and said: "A few days ago, there was a major progress in the interpretation of oracle bones in the imperial capital, and a batch of oracle bones of the late Shang dynasty were excavated. ”

"So what."

"Reading history books in the past few days, looking at the records of Confucius, I am a little puzzled, I want to ask you."

Zhao Zhilong immediately said: "The elder has asked something, and he knows everything. ”

"Peel through the whitewashed parts, what is Confucius?"

"Holy Teacher."

"It's a Generation ......"

Li waved his hand forward and said: "I have been reading history books in the past few days, this master, is not like you, in the six arts, the last two things, archery, the way of royalty, put it now, that is, can drive a tank car, can play with guns and machetes, do you say yes, and the recent Confucian students, don't think about shooting, royal, I'm afraid that in addition to the thin horse raised by himself, even a slightly stronger woman can't beat it, so, where is the problem." ”

"This ......"

Li Xiangqian said: "Confucius of the Jiagu Alliance said that there must be military equipment if there is a civil matter, and he made preparations in advance to stop the conspiracy of the Qi State to kidnap Lu Jun, and obtained a treaty that is more favorable to the Lu State, this is not a gentleman, and he is not stupid to ask Sanhuan to hand over power to the monarch as soon as he comes to power, and Sanhuan is against him, but Confucius is Ji Sun, March is not violated, in Ji Sun's view, Confucius is clearly in the same group as them, and it represents the interests of Sanhuan, at least on behalf of the interests of Ji Sun, So the Jisun clan was the first to take Fei Yi. When Sanhuan demolished his castle, Sanhuan did not suspect that he was harming himself, this, but a first-class conspiracy method, a first-class talent, you say, yes or no. ”

"What the elder said is very true."

"The rest of the things are even more interesting, well, I think for Sanheng, Confucius is not a humble gentleman, but a conspirator, you say yes or no."

"How can this be said, the master is trying to make compromises, just for the sake of it."

Li Xiangqian shook his head and said: "Confucius of Qi felt frightened after coming to power, and said, if Confucius is in power, Lu will inevitably be hegemonic, and if Lu is hegemonic and the land of my Qi is close to it, the land of my Qi will be the first to be annexed, so why not give away the land quickly?" The doctor said, please try to prevent Confucius from coming to power, if you can't prevent Confucius from coming to power and then donate land, is it too late? King Zhao of Chu sent someone to invite Confucius, and Confucius was about to go to return the gift, at this time Chen and Cai's scholars secretly planned that if Confucius was adopted in the Chu State, then our scholars in power Chen and Cai would be in danger, and the king of Chu wanted to give Confucius a fief of 700 li, but he was immediately stopped, and the ministers of Chu were afraid to stop it. ”
