Chapter 86: Fan Wencheng's dilemma
Those craftsmen are generally blacksmiths, carpenters and the like, and it can even be said that the Qing can survive in the past, and the blood and tears of these craftsmen are almost their lifeblood.
In the "research" work that a certain descendant of Baoyi Yan was excited about for a certain year, this kind of thing of turning thousands of people into slaves and killing them if they can't complete the number and standard of work is a kind of "decisive" and "heroic" approach, which is a real generation of emperors, and really has to live for another 500 years.
Of course, as for what the craftsmen who starved to death think, no one cares.
But anyway, you can calculate it compared to the cost.
The Ming Dynasty wanted to manufacture weapons, although the comprador system was also disgusting, but in the later period, it was also improved, in any case, it was given to a group of craftsmen to work with money, even if it was exploited again, the Ming court always had to pay a sum of money.
However, here in Shengjing, it is not the case that it is full, and there is no need to mention the salary, and whether it is an archer, (the bow smith district in Shenyang in later generations comes from this, of course, some people are not ashamed but proud, just ...... Blacksmiths, or other craftsmen, are unpaid, and live a daily life of toil, and if they don't do well, they die, and they barely survive by exchanging a few standard daily tasks for a little food.
It can be said that thousands of men with iron weapons around them, strong and full of anger, once they find out, those terrible beasts that were originally suppressed above their heads have suddenly been wiped out, and in front of them, only the elite old and weak are left, and their ambitions will be established at once, and, most terrifyingly, their job is to make weapons!
Of course, there's a big blind spot.
The lions in the circus, when they need to perform, or even when they are ridden and photographed by tourists, there is always a person with a stick and whip to scare them, in fact, when the lions become adults, they can already use their strength and body to resist their owners, why not?
Because of the memories of childhood, I am still the weak lion pack.
But a lion is a lion, and the one who fears slaves the most is the slave owner.
No matter how many later generations of Baoyi praised this kind of slavery, but Zierharang fully knew that if thousands of strong craftsmen went berserk, what kind of destructive power would it have, and after looking at Kong Youde coldly, Kong Youde shuddered and said: "The slave will go, if those cheap people dare to say no, the slave will know how to do it." ”
Zilharan shouted, "Bow down, press him down." ”
Ao Bai tightened his muscles with bad intentions and followed.
Looking at the people who left, Zilharang sighed, and then glanced at Hauge, who seemed to be eager to try, and a few other old or incompetent clansmen, and suddenly said: "Dolgon seems to have really had an accident, how many days have passed, and there is still no news, and the Han barbarians who are walking have arrived, and not a single cavalryman has come back to report the news." ”
Hauge said: "I have long said, how can I send troops in this early spring, the horses have just passed the winter, and they are already hungry and thin, and they must wait until the autumn when the grass grows and the horses are fat. ”
Zilharang glanced at him discriminately, and said in his heart, if it weren't for the humanity of your big tongue, if it weren't for the fact that you couldn't be a man and offended people, would your father not give your eldest son enough troops to command, so as to support you as the emperor? Otherwise, when Dolgon leveled you to the end the other day, why didn't anyone speak for you?
Isn't it your big mouth, do you think you know that you can't send troops in the spring, you look at the others who said it first, two goods, if you don't want that Dolgon to open a killing sect's head, if this head is opened, you can't tell who the next one is, anyway, Dolgon doesn't have a son, let him play, although Zilharang himself knows that he is a puppet, but he is also a puppet who understands, the Ming Dynasty is in the civil war, divided and divided, even if it is unified, don't want to bring down Shenyang for many years, He originally thought that this time Dolgon could march into Shanhaiguan as he claimed, at least seize the gate of the Liaoxi Corridor, so that it can be attacked and defended in the future, if the opportunity is good, Dolgon boasted that he would take the opportunity to take the imperial capital, plunder all the hundreds of thousands of people in the imperial capital, and plunder the wealth accumulated by the Ming Dynasty for a hundred years, well, of course, what Dolgon said in the end, if he can, occupy the imperial capital, and let everyone enter the imperial capital......
Zilharang didn't believe in these things, in his opinion, the most he could do was to lay down the Shanhaiguan, and he was satisfied, but what he never expected was that he was actually beaten to the point of annihilation.
At this time, it was definitely not a moment of infighting, I thought about it, and said: "Nephew, don't complain about these, you go to find a few really reliable men, find a few batches of horses, and go to Shanhaiguan to visit, what happened, no one believes it, what is the big flying house flying in the sky, and the gods flying down?" The gods really care about mortal fights, why did our ancestors destroy Da Liao, we have been fighting in Liaodong for so many years, and we have not taken care of it. ”
Although Hauge has been pushed by Dolgon to the end, he is still the eldest brother of Emperor Shunzhi in the end, and he still has some influence, and he can still find a few people, and he ran out in a hurry when he got down, and he couldn't see it at all, this was sending him away, don't get in the way.
Jierharang looked at Fan Wencheng, this old guy is still very powerful, Jierharang has always been very jealous of him, "Master Fan, I know that you have given most of the horses in the horse farm to the regent, so please go and check how many horses we have, the following things, whether it is to support them, or to pick them up, or in case...... But we can't do without these horses, and without them, we are lame and blind. ”
Saying that, he actually stood up, shook Fan Wencheng's hand, and said: "I'm also a person who is about to enter the ground, what else can I do, isn't it all for the little cub in the family, no matter how bad our brothers were before, we have to find a way to get through this hurdle." ”
Fan Wencheng is already dozens of years old, and it can be said that the Ming Dynasty has treated him well all his life, an eighteen-year-old Xiucai, who received silver for several years, and then directly took refuge in XX a few years later, and then became a hero who knows the times in some literati groups composed of coats.
But Fan Wencheng also knows what is at stake, the strategy he supported to capture Shanhaiguan failed, and now Dolgon does not know whether he is alive or dead, and Kong Youde, who came back, also brought back an absurd, flying house flying in the sky in the fight.
