On the post road, the stagecoach galloped, the letters were constantly exchanged, and the secret envoys met on the road.

After a series of intense back-and-forths and various confessions, the four towns of Jiangbei were the mainstay, and the Shi Kefa Shi Ge Department, which was the supervisor of Yangzhou as a scholar of the Jianji Palace and the secretary of the military department, was called on, and a huge group force based on the officials and gentry from all over Jiangbei was rapidly formed. In addition, they wrote to the imperial court in their respective names, asking the cabinet and the general's office to approve and implement new policies in various parts of Jiangbei.

Of course, maybe it was a clerical error when writing, or maybe it was to pat Hongguang Tianzi on the back, and the new deal was written as a benevolent government.

Of course, these handsomes and gentry in Jiangbei are also unusually fast.

This side has just been played by the imperial court to demand the implementation of the so-called "benevolent government" in various parts of the Jianghuai River, and over there, all kinds of "benevolent government" methods have begun to be in full swing, like wildfires burning cities.

"According to the new political and legal system of the imperial court, from the second year of Chongzhen, the arrears of money and grain must be collected! If you dare not pay, demolish the house! Morning glory! Men in the yoke! Women are sold as official slaves! ”

"It's time to hand over the donation! In order to recover the north of the Yellow River, recover the Beijing Division, and eliminate the Tartars and thieves, all places will levy and donate money. Levy per mu, each mu of land, in addition to the positive tax, add five buckets as a recovery donation! All cash dollars! Shops everywhere will be charged according to the standard of 5 out of 100! Those who dare not to pay will be punished as thieves! The family wealth is confiscated, and the head of the household is killed! Ding Zhuang is in the army! Women sell! ”

In villages, towns, and cities, there were people sent by officials and registered gentlemen, who worked tirelessly to sound gongs and shout, urging those villagers to pay the "money and grain in arrears" that had already been paid. They are all small people, and who has that kind of Taoism, which can be in arrears to the imperial court under the urging of the wolf-like tax collectors?

As a result, the thatched huts and huts were demolished, and the bricks, tiles and timber were brought to the market for sale. The only chickens and ducks they had, the farming tools they relied on, and the cattle that they raised with their neighbors and relatives were sold together.

The people's grievances suddenly rose. Countless people who had their houses demolished, their farm tools taken away, their rice tanks swept away, and those who were forced to pay the high amount of money and grain they had to pay began to curse Liang Guogong and Ma Shoufu, who were implementing the new policy in Jinling City in the south of the Yangtze River. There are many old ladies in the countryside who worship the tablet of Liang Guogong, and they bow three times in the morning and dusk, and a stick of incense in the morning and evening. It's not that he prays for a long life, "The living receive incense, and we just want him to die!" This dead beheading is short-lived! ”

However, another Yin Wind and Ghost Fire burned even more viciously and viciously.

"Did you hear that? Jiangnan is going to send a checker to the Qing army. ”

In the barracks, many people gathered in one place with mysterious expressions, basking in the sun in the corner, catching lice, and exchanging all kinds of gossip that they had heard.

The Qing army mentioned here is not the Qing army under the command of Dolgon. Rather, it is to check the meaning of the army and check the army.

"Qing army? I'm afraid of a bird! Didn't you come to our camp to clear it? Is it Lord Yushi or the Ministry of War to test the merits of the Ministry of War this time? "Some people don't care, this kind of thing is also a commonplace official article.

"Neither! It's the people sent by the general, Liang Guogong, and his old man's line! Not only the minister, but also a brigade of soldiers and horses! ”

This news immediately made the faces of the audience change. From the previous carelessness, it quickly became a look of having to pay attention to it, and even a little frightened.

This is probably the same state of mind that people worship and fear when they talk about a terrifying power. For example, when people talk about tigers.

"You come to the Qing army as the old man of the Nanyue Army, and our generals and marshals can still deal with the imperial history of the imperial court like before, so it's a big deal for us to drive away the women who were snatched and abducted in the army, and the women who were captured from the rogue bandits, cut them down, and sold them, so that the adults and gentlemen can't see that there are women in our army accompanying them?"

"I've heard that! At this time, in addition to ordering the equipment of soldiers and horses, it is necessary to name and pay for it. However, before this roll call, after the soldiers and horses were checked, they had to act in accordance with the military discipline of Liang Guogong and his old man's Nanyue Army! ”

"Wait! What does it mean? Why should we act in accordance with the military discipline of the Nanyue Army before naming and paying salaries? Some people were puzzled by this.

"It's so simple! After all, the old men of the Nanyue Army are here, why do they still have to bring a large number of people? That is, it is necessary to strictly investigate military discipline, and we are worried that some people in the army will mutiny and chaos, and bring bullets to suppress the army! If you weigh yourself and think that you can beat the first brigade of soldiers and horses of the Nanyue Army, you can just make trouble. ”

"Don't talk about this useless! Of course we can't beat it! But why did the Lao Tzu rise up and mutiny? Didn't you say that you would pay the Lao Tzu? "A small leader at the general level, strangled a fat lice in his hand, and looked at the blood on his own body on his nails, and felt a burst of comfort in his heart." I let you eat Lao Tzu's blood, Lao Tzu wants your life! ”

"Why? Tell you, I've heard that the military discipline of the Nanyue Army is so harsh and harsh, it's not ordinary! ”

"Don't sell it! Let's make it clear! What salt class salt water, we don't understand! ”

"Good! For example, if you are the boss, you eat a lot of meat when you eat。。。。。 ”

"Nonsense! If Lao Tzu can't even eat a few more pieces of meat, what is Lao Tzu doing as this officer? It's not our turn to deduct military salaries, so at most, it's time to eat more meat! ”

"Good! According to the rules of the Nanyue Army, the officers deducted the soldiers' food, ate more and occupied more, and killed their heads! The well-informed press officer's smug look flashed in his eyes. Seeing the silence brought by the people around him because of fear, the soldiers around him were silent, and instantly led the topic to these soldiers.

"Those who are soldiers do not abide by military discipline, they rob things outside, they molest the big girls and little daughters-in-law, even if they rob the common people of a chicken, touch the hands of the big girls and the little daughters-in-law, and cut off their hands. I touched my chest and cut the hanging thing in your crotch! If you touch your face and hands, it's simple, just cut off your head. ”

"Also, all battalions and towns, going out to collect grain and grass, that is, going out to collect grain, is also not good! Collecting grain and grass will be counted as looting grain! Those who don't give money for food will be killed! All those who participated in the looting of grain were killed! When one team goes, they kill another. If a sentry goes, kill a sentry. Even if you are a battalion of soldiers and horses, you can't think of anything that you don't blame, and you will still kill all of them! ”

"What? Chop off your head at every turn? No wonder the Nanyue Army is so capable of fighting, and can charge against the cannons of the Tartars!? ”

"Donkey balls! The marshal and the general transported the grain and armor to the north of the Yellow River in a large cart and a small boat, in exchange for a boatload of silver dollars, why not cut off their heads? We little minions, bitter poor soldiers, grab a few chickens, make a big girl and a little daughter-in-law happy, and want to cut off our heads? Damn, is there still a heavenly reason?! ”

"That's it! His grandma's! Our Ming officers and soldiers are already aggrieved enough! If you really provoke Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will not be this Ming officer and soldier! ”

"That's right! There is no place to stay here, there is a place to stay! Don't leave the master everywhere, the master, the master will transfer the number to wear it, and go west to vote for Li Chuang! Shave your hair and cross the river to cast tartars! Anyway, they don't have so many things there that kill heads at every turn! Lao Tzu only needs to fight with his life! ”

Similar press conferences were held everywhere in the military camps of various towns in Jiangbei, and the resentment and curse words in the army were surging.

Both the military and the people are full of resentment. In this regard, Wu Feiluan was overjoyed.

The big squires from all over the Jianghuai region wrote letters one after another, sending their confidants and capable sons to discuss the grand event. The so-called restoration donation and recovery of the arrears of money and grain, not only did not damage the interests of half of their Chongzhen Tongbao, but allowed them to get a solid share of it.

(Smack!) A brick flew over the head of the author, who had habitually dragged on for a longer time. The angry reader pointed at the unkind author and rebuked, "Didn't you say that you should demand the payment of the money and grain? Didn't you say that you want to collect all the donations? How is it that these big squires, who hold the lion's share of the land, have made a fortune again? "The truth is like a layer of window paper, Master Tang of "Let the Bullets Fly" has already helped us pierce it." You have to let the gentry pay the money first and bring the people to donate money. The gentry donated, and the people followed suit. After the money arrived, the money of the gentry was returned in full, and the people's money was divided into three or seven accounts. In this way, the squires naturally got a cup of steaming meat soup firmly. A small piece of land belonging to the small landlords and yeoman farmers who were originally scattered in their own fields was swallowed with a compassionate heart. Let the fields in several counties become all the same. The land belongs to the family, and naturally, the peasants who depend on this land for their livelihood have since become tenants that these squires can kill and seize, oh! By the way, the big landlords in northern Jiangsu also have a special right, that is, the right to the first night of the black cauldron that the Mongols have carried for a long time. When the tenant's daughter marries, she has to go to the landlord's house for a few days. Let's make up the story in this story! We're cleaning up the Internet environment right now! Then what kind of plot is not allowed to be written. ）

This set of methods designed by Wu Feiluan and others, in fact, is worthless, to put it bluntly. In the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which was in the hands of the generals of the Eight Banners of Manchuria at this time, the original source of this set of methods can be found.

Dong Zhuozhi entered Luoyang, and praised Taiwei Peng as the captain of Pingjin, and moved to the school captain. Zhuo Zhonglang will Niu Fu Tun Shaanxi, and he will be in the auxiliary army. Zhuo was defeated, Fu died again, everyone was afraid, and the school captains Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and others wanted to disband, and returned to their hometowns. Xu said: "I heard that Chang'an wanted to punish the people of Liangzhou, and the monarchs abandoned the crowd and went alone, that is, a pavilion chief can restrain the monarch." It is better to lead the crowd to the west, where to collect troops, to attack Chang'an, to avenge Dong Gong, fortunately, to serve the country to conquer the world, if not, go ahead. ”

Pei said that it is true, but Li Dao, Guo Yan, Fan Chou, and Zhang Ji's disciples are all Dong Zhuo's henchmen, and Qu Kui is innocent, and the rest of the people are too late to die, dare to have other ambitions? Since Wang Yun was one year old, he could no longer be pardoned, and he wanted to punish the people of Liangzhou, so Li Dao and others gathered in the bee tun, and the corruption was out of control. The pawn was killed, and the Han died. Therefore, I say that the death of the Han family is not due to Jia Xu, but to Wang Yunyiyan. Although Yun has the merit of punishing Zhuo, he is actually one of the big sinners in the Han family.

Wu Feiluan and others' methods were just to take out Jia Xu's cold rice and fry it again, and then add the auxiliary materials of the Ming Dynasty and the ingredients from the Jianghuai region. The core content of this is that Jia Xu vigorously promoted and spread Wang Yun's "one year old can no longer be pardoned" and "want to punish the people of Liangzhou" in the old base area of the Xiliang Army, creating a mass base and public opinion against Wang Yun.

Wu Feiluan is also thinking about this.

Aren't you going to do a New Deal? I'm going to launch a more ruthless method of benevolence than you! Loot all the people's assets and make the people hate you to the core.

Didn't you point to the parade horses? I made a big deal of it in the army, saying how strict your military discipline was, and I didn't mention the various benefits and rewards related to your military merits and soldiers. Let the sergeants and junior officers mention you and scold constantly, and even threaten to mutiny.

The army and the people are all angry and scolding, but Liu Zeqing and Wu Feiluan are still worried in their hearts, they all know that the strength in the hands of the Liang Guogong in Nanjing City at this time is unfathomable, don't look at him now he is bent on being a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, but, who knows when he suddenly figured it out, he doesn't want to be Guo Ziyi, but wants to be Zhao Kuangyin or follow the example of the Ming Taizu, so can we still have a good one?

At the beginning, Li Huayu was able to hire the soldiers and horses of the Cao family to pacify the soldiers and horses of the Abatai tribe who were wandering all over Shandong. Such a method, if you change to another superintendent, I am afraid that I may not be able to think of it if I want to break my head!

So, everyone has to add another insurance to themselves.

Therefore, Wu Feiluan quietly sent his right-hand man, Liu Yuanqing, who is also a protégé, to Kaifeng early.

At this time, Kaifeng had been abandoned by Li Zicheng's Dashun army and became the rear of Duoduo and Azig and others. Liu Yuanqing came to this Bianliang City in Tokyo, and the purpose is self-evident.

Although the two brothers Dordor and Azig were not as politically talented as their brother Dorgon, the regent of the city, they also had some progress and experience over the years. Moreover, the use of subjugation and internal traitors to conquer cities and fortresses that are impossible to attack is originally a family heirloom of the Aixin Jueluo family. What's more, in Kaifeng City at this time, there is also a big man who is responsible for recruiting people from the Ming Dynasty, the former Ming Ji Liao Governor, and the current Qing Dynasty Jinglu Hong Chengchou Hong Hengjiu is here.

As a result, Liu Yuanqing naturally received him cordially with Hong Jingluo, Duoduo and Azig.

Being able to get the reception of Hong Chengchou, who was already the crown prince at this time, the secretary of the military department and the right capital of the Imperial Palace, entered the inner court to administer military affairs, awarded the secretary of the academy, became the first Han prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, and also appeased the military affairs of the southern governor, and gave him the power to act cheaply, Liu Yuanqing knew that his mission would go very smoothly, and the interests of the Jianghuai gentry group behind him would also be recognized and supported by the Qing Dynasty.

When he was very surprised to see Prince Azig and Prince Yu Duoduo who were tied in the high hall, he was even more overjoyed. Everyone knows that these two are brothers with the actual family members of the Qing Dynasty at present, and they themselves are the banner owners of the Eight Banners of Manchuria, so their words naturally have weight.

Sure enough, when Liu Yuanqing, as the spokesman of the generals of the towns and the officials and gentlemen of various places between the Jianghuai and the Jianghuai, immediately won the appreciation and support of the three important figures of the Qing Dynasty, such as vigorously promoting benevolent government, inspecting and reviewing Liang Guogong's inspection and review of various military towns in Jianghuai, and making ideological mobilization in the army.

Originally! At this time, inside the opponent's camp, there is such a large force to dig the foot of the wall and tear down the pillars for the opponent, how can such an ally not treat it well?

"Our soldiers are strong, and the rogues will be eliminated in a battle, and it is appropriate for the advance officer to announce the king's decree, showing that this is a special time to destroy the thieves, not to slaughter the people, not to burn the house, and not to forgive the property. The prefectures and counties were still announced, the door was opened and surrendered, the officials were promoted, and the soldiers and civilians did not commit any crimes. If they resist and refuse, the officials will be punished on the day of the city, and the people will still be safe. Those who are the first to advocate internal response will be rewarded exceptionally. This is also a priority. ”

When Liu Yuanqing put forward his own request on behalf of the Jianghuai gentry, Scholar Hong, as the official in charge of this matter in charge of the Qing Dynasty, immediately expressed his position and solemnly reiterated the remarks he made when he entered the customs. As long as you continue to walk on the road of digging the foot of the wall and tearing down the pillars for Daming, then the broad and warm arms of Daqing will be open for you at any time.

"Scholar Hong is right! As long as you are willing to cooperate with the Qing Dynasty, respond to the people, understand the current affairs, and take into account the overall situation, when the Qing Dynasty soldiers and horses arrive, in addition to your own duties, and do not move the people, the regent will ask the current Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty to abolish the so-called new policy of the pseudo-reverse Hongguang Tianzi between the Jianghuai and the Jianghuai, and the system of harming the people can no longer exist in the world! Reinstate the system during the Wanli and Chongzhen periods, and pay tribute to those who read. ”

Duoduo's words, although rude and unliterate, were very informative, so big that Liu Yuanqing trembled with excitement.

Originally! He took the risk to cross the staggered front between several armies in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and slept in the snow and in the wind. Isn't it just that you can exchange it for a sentence from the Qing Dynasty, to ensure your life, property, net worth, and life, that the position of an official will not be moved, and that the chickens and dogs at home will not be shocked. However, now Prince Yu has made a promise on behalf of the regent that as long as you cooperate, in the future, the Qing Dynasty will follow the technical standards you like, oh no, it will be implemented according to the policy caliber you like. What bullshit New Deal, throw us into the Oriental Sea!
