Chapter 1255: South or North?
"Trouble?" Zhu Cihong frowned, "How big can it be?" Will it cost the rogues a lot? It's not going to be on our turf, is it? ”
That's a problem!
White Lotus Sect!
This is a professional rebellion that has given the Ming Dynasty a headache for more than 200 years, the most recent rebellion of the White Lotus Sect occurred in the second year of the Apocalypse, the leader of the White Lotus Sect in Shandong gathered people to revolt in the Caozhou area, and broke through many prefectures and counties. This White Lotus uprising began in May of the second year of the Apocalypse and was basically over until September of that year, affecting most of Shandong and dealing a serious blow to the reactionary rule of the Ming Dynasty......
Now Zhu Cihong is the general leader of the Ming Dynasty, and he doesn't want to see the White Lotus Sect's uprising spread from Dashun to Daming.
Didn't the Qing Dynasty still have a big uprising in the Sichuan-Chu White Lotus Sect in history? Don't go to Daming Hongxing in advance to make trouble!
"Your Majesty," Zhu Chunjie replied, "The White Lotus Sect should be able to make a little noise in the territory of the Liukou...... The White Lotus Sect is a spark seed, and it can only light a fire when it encounters dry firewood. The Liukou pressed the Sichuan people too tightly, and it was only a matter of time before they made a fuss. However, although the White Lotus Sect can make trouble, it will not cause too much damage to the Liukou. ”
"Won't cause much damage?" Zhu Cihong asked, "Why is that?" ”
Zhu Chunjie said: "Because although the Liukou have lost the hearts of the Sichuan people, their strength is still there, and they are still at the peak, and they are not at all subverted by the White Lotus Sect and others." ”
Zhu Cihong nodded, he knew that Zhu Chunjie's analysis was reasonable, although the White Lotus Sect, a group of trouble-making guys, had a lot of trouble during this period of time in the Ming Dynasty, but their combat effectiveness was really not good, even the Ming Dynasty in the year of the Apocalypse could use the weak brigade to suppress them, not to mention the powerful rogue.
"What's the point if it won't cause much damage?" Zhu Cihong seemed a little hesitant, he was still very wary of these rebel professionals.
"Of course it's interesting," Zhu Chunjie said with a smile, "If you don't make a lot of trouble, you can get a lot of trouble for Liukou...... Since ancient times, most of the troublemakers have caused trouble in the places where people gather, and the places where the servants gather are the most likely to cause trouble. Now that the rogues and we are fighting in Shaanxi, the logistics and transportation will inevitably be difficult, and the people will inevitably be resentful and resentful for their hard work.
Secondly, the supply of grain and cloth on the ground of the Liukou is relatively tight now, and if the White Lotus Sect makes another fuss, it will inevitably exacerbate the supply shortage, and the silver and copper coins of the Liukou will not be able to buy much.
Moreover, once the White Lotus Sect makes trouble, it can also let the Liukou clean up this group of demons for us, these Xiaoxiao will make trouble sooner or later, if they don't make trouble now, they will make trouble in the future, it is better to let the Liukou destroy them for us. ”
This is a knife to kill! What a ruthless spy! Zhu Cihong glanced at Zhu Chunjie approvingly, this guy can be regarded as growing. This is how it should be dealt with the rebel professional households of the White Lotus Sect! Let them taste the iron fist of the dictatorship of the Dashun Soldiers!
"I have to let the Liukou wipe out all the White Lotus Sects in Sichuan!" Zhu Cihong said calmly, "Cults harm others and themselves, and if they make a big scene, the losses will be amazing!" ”
"Your Majesty Shengming!" Zhu Chunjie said, "There is another thing, we also need the White Lotus Sect in Sichuan...... It's our Daming's 'rent-free, free-of-service, free-service, and scientific expeditions to welcome the Daming' have to be uploaded through them on the ground in Sichuan! Otherwise, how would the people of Sichuan know this? ”
Zhu Cihong nodded: "This is also true!" ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Pan Yuchen, the governor of Dongchang.
"Your Majesty," Pan Yuchen of Admiral Dongchang knew that Zhu Cihong was asking himself the latter question, so he replied, "There are also some White Lotus Sect members on the imperial court's territory, but their strength is limited, and they can't reach the level of exposing rebellion, they are just cheating money and fooling people." ”
The vigorous White Lotus Sect on the ground of Dashun is to a certain extent related to the weakening of the three religions of Confucianism and Taoism, especially Confucianism!
Although Dashun did not destroy Confucianism, he did not support Confucianism, and he did not particularly support Buddhism and Taoism, and even strictly limited the number of monks and Taoists, and confiscated a large number of temple properties through Juntian.
Therefore, in the territory of Dashun, there was a situation in which the traditional three religions were weakened, and the White Lotus Sect, a rebellious religion with strong vitality, naturally took advantage of the weakness to enter.
Zhu Cihong, on the other hand, used the "Zi Treatise on Gewu" to promote Confucianism, and he did not cancel the super means of promoting Confucianism by taking the official examination and becoming an official, but replaced the imperial examination with a very small number of winners with a wider coverage of the official examination and the college entrance examination.
Confucianism, armed with the "Zi Treatise on Gewu", will of course suppress the White Lotus Sect and make it difficult for it to flourish.
In addition, although there were many poor people on the side of the Ming Dynasty, there were still some heads - although most people's struggles were difficult to achieve in the end, they were still allowed to struggle after all. Therefore, not too many people believe in the "struggle religion" of the White Lotus Sect......
"It's not allowed to cheat people out of money!" Zhu Cihong's tone was stern, "The Great Tomorrow Dynasty, Lang Lang Qiankun, how can you allow the White Lotus Sect to cheat Qian Mengren?" Be sure to impose strict sanctions! ”
Yes, there are so many ways to cheat money and deceive people, why do you have to engage in the White Lotus Sect? How scary it sounds, and more importantly, you can't cheat a few bucks, so you might as well go to California to pan for gold!
"Command!" Pan Yuchen called Zhu Cihong a "minister" instead of a slave, because the current Dongchang is not a yamen in charge of eunuchs in the inner court, and Pan Yuchen is not Emperor Zhu's domestic slave, but a physically disabled hero.
Zhu Cihong nodded, and said: "Liukou has always been insidious and cunning, and we can't be unguarded!" Don't be a rogue The White Lotus Sect on the ground hasn't risen, and there will be some chaos on the imperial court's territory! ”
"Your Majesty rest assured," Pan Yuchen said, "The minister must urge the secret agents below to take strict precautions and never let the tricks of the rogue succeed!" ”
Zhu Cihong thought for a while and said, "You can't rely on your Dongchang for this matter alone, you have to let the Criminal Department cooperate...... Sweep the big cities in the four rivers, two lakes, Fujian and Guangdong, catch a little more lawbreakers, and send them to the Northwest Army to serve to atone for their crimes, so as to save them from making trouble! ”
Now Zhu Cihong is not worried about the peasant uprising, his Ming Dynasty has run out of capital, the size of the city is getting bigger and bigger, and while industry and commerce are flourishing, the population is also gathering in large numbers.
If a large number of people are not well managed, they are prone to riots!
Now Da Ming and Da Shun see that it is a battle of life and death, and Emperor Zhu has to light a fire in Li Laiheng's backyard while also guarding his own yard!
......
When Zhu Cihong was pondering how to use yin tricks for the Dashun Dynasty, the Dashun Dynasty was caught in a battle between the north and the south.
This controversy was provoked by Li Dingguo, who had returned to Kunming from the front, and on his way back to Kunming, he gave Li Laiheng a recital, stating five reasons for opposing the southward movement.
First, the last time I went south to Tianzhu, I just took advantage of the unpreparedness and got lucky, and it was not so easy to go again, maybe I would fall deeper and deeper in Tianzhu.
Second, going south to Tianzhu will shake the morale of the army on the front line in Shaanxi, if everyone wants to go to Tianzhu to make a fortune, who is willing to fight hard with Zhu Ming in Shaanxi?
Third, the gold, silver, good horses, and orchids obtained by Tianzhu did not help Dashun's military strength much, but would cause the soldiers of Dashun Mansion to degenerate and extravagance, thus losing their combat effectiveness.
Fourth, Zhu Ming Emperor Zhu Cihong has moved to Wuhan, and he also announced that he will drive the expedition in person, and a great war between Shunming and Ming will start. At this time, Dashun must resist with all his might, and must not have the slightest retreat and turn forward, otherwise people's hearts will be confused!
Fifth, Dashun has always been based on the land, emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business, and making a profit. However, after returning from plundering Tianzhu, gold and silver were abundant, merchants ran away, the government soldiers began to despise the land, and the people began to neglect farming. In the long run, it will inevitably make Dashun lack food and clothing, empty of gold and silver, and useless!
Li Dingguo's five points immediately caused great controversy in Kunming, and supporters believed that Li Dingguo was the pillar of Dashun, and the suggestions put forward were all good policies for the benefit of the country. Those who oppose it believe that Dashun is now trapped in Sichuan and Yunnan, and it is difficult to resist Zhu Ming for a long time, and only by opening up to the south can he survive for a long time......
