"General Qin, the total amount of arrears of grain tax we have collected is more than 200,000 stones, and 50,000 taels of silver, how should we deal with this field grain?" Chen Daquan is no longer Qin Yiming's leader, but Qin Yiming's subordinate.

"In addition to the two guards and two guards except for the Xianling Guard, each household will be given two stones of grain, and all the rest will be kept, and all the silver money will be used to update weapons and equipment, and each guard must distribute two sets of clothes in spring and winter a year, and the food of the soldiers in the guard must be improved!" Qin Yiming said.

De'an Mansion, Chengtian Mansion, and Hanyang Mansion are all in the sphere of influence of the Hindu Left-behind Division, with two guards and two institutes, with more than 20,000 soldiers, of course, the actual number is not so much, and the number of military households is nearly 200,000 people, most of them are extremely poor, Qin Yiming's first thing to do is to let the military households of these guards reach the level of food and clothing, as long as the tuntian is recovered, this goal is basically achievable.

"I will transfer the backbone from the De'an Thousand Households and assign them to each guard station, so that they can imitate the experience of the De'an Thousand Households and build other guard posts, and in the future, all the soldiers of the guard will have to participate in training every day, and only if they exercise well on weekdays can they have combat effectiveness on the battlefield!" Qin Yiming continued.

"Yes, yes, yes! Mr. Qin is right! "Chen Daquan is the actual leader of the Xingdu Left-behind Division, the Hindu Left-behind Division has been in his hands for more than ten years, and every year is not as good as a year, and now Qin Yiming wants to make it stronger, of course Chen Daquan will not say anything, and he is very supportive in his heart.

"The commander of Chengtianwei has made Huang Zhifeng have been cut down, this Chengtianwei group of dragons has no leader, Lord Qin, do you think you want to arrange one?" Chen Daquan asked.

Qin Yiming nodded, this is a good opportunity to grasp the guards, taking advantage of this Qingtun, he can give a big change of blood to those uncontrolled guards, in order to better control these guards in the future.

"Let Ai Wannian go to Chengtianwei as a commander!"

"Okay, I'll prepare the official document and token."

After this matter reached Jingshi, even Chongzhen felt that Qin Yiming had gone too far, the prefect of a place, he said that he would kill it, Chongzhen regretted it a little, this Shangfang sword should not be given to Qin Yiming, this Qin Yiming was too murderous, but thinking back to the original intention, plus some follow-up news of Qin Yiming came to Jingshi one after another, in the end he still chose to believe Qin Yiming, so he withstood the pressure of Wenchen and left all the impeachment recitals in the middle.

"This Qin General Soldier, although he has enveloped the people at the bottom, but in this way, he has offended all those landlords and gentry! The dignified prefect of Chengtian Mansion, he took my Shangfang sword and cut people down, and the scholars and doctors were all offended by him, I am afraid that it will be difficult in the future. Chongzhen muttered.

"Your Majesty, General Qin said in his answer that he wanted to pay a real salary, but he didn't expect it to be done! Now these rebounds are inevitable. Wang Chengen said softly.

Chongzhen nodded, looked at the mountains of folds on the table, and said with a wry smile: "This impeachment fold is sent to me like a snowflake, this Qin Yiming is a martial artist, he can't turn around at all, it's too brutal, I gave him Shang Fang's sword seems to have hurt him, with Shang Fang's sword, he did it so brutally, but those people in the local area, Yang Feng Yin disobeys, don't do the facts, otherwise, with his head, it is estimated that he can't fight those local civil servants who despise military generals." ”

Wang Chengen said with a smile: "Hehe, this Lord Qin is also rough and fine, cunning, when we were in Beijing, we have seen it, I heard that this time Huang Renjie framed a commander under General Qin, but he was still dumbfounded by General Qin's sophistry. ”

"Anyway, he relied on his Shang Fang sword, and even the state capital dared to kill, this is indeed outrageous, he is just a general soldier, he also dares, if he continues to get used to it like this, I am afraid he will become the next Yuan Chonghuan! Also, will the ministers of the DPRK and China think that I instructed him to do this? Well, I still have to give an order to reprimand! Chongzhen said worriedly.

"But the emperor, Chen Daquan made an excerpt, saying that General Qin had cleared up the arrears of taxes and grains over the years, as much as 200,000 stones, more than 50,000 taels of silver, and now the tuntian cleaning in the three mansions is unusually smooth, and no one dares to stop it."

"Hehe, the prefect's head is hanging there, who would dare to resist perfunctorily."

"There are all kinds of entanglements of interests here, and indeed only a person like Lord Qin can do this! If Lord Qin can really train a strong army for the emperor, and it doesn't cost the court's money, then everything is worth it! Wang Chengen's words spoke to Chongzhen's heart, and this was his true original intention.

"Forget it, let him mess around! It just so happened that Zhang Xianzhong's army was making trouble in Jianghuai, Chen Hongfan and others were a bunch of rice buckets, and they had been defeated repeatedly, and he also needed to come out and lead troops to suppress the bandits and quell the rebellion! At this time, you still have to protect him. In the future, the excerpts about the impeachment of General Qin will be left unpublished, and let them make trouble. ”

Just when the reform of the three prefectures of Huguang was vigorous, Qin Yiming received an order from the Ministry of War, and Qin Yiming was transferred to lead the troops of Huguang, open Henan, and attack Zhang Xianzhong's department.

In the tenth year of Chongzhen, Zhang Xianzhong came out of Shizhouwei and united with Luo Rucai, with more than 200,000 troops, hundreds of miles of company camps, and attacked everywhere.

They advanced into Dabie Mountain, and then to the south to capture Fengjiadian, achieved the so-called Fengjiadian victory, annihilated more than 20,000 officers and soldiers, and then to the east along the river to take, the beacon fire reached Huaiyang, Nanjing shook, at this time Chongzhen realized the seriousness of the matter, before he mistakenly thought that after the death of King Gao Yingxiang, the thieves were not worried, where did he know that this Zhang Xianzhong suddenly had 200,000 horses, and was still advancing to the imperial capital.

Chongzhen listened to Yang Sichang's suggestion, appointed Xiong Wencan, the prime minister of military affairs in Nangi, Henan, Shaanxi, Huguang, Sichuan and other places, and assembled more than 100,000 heavy troops, which were respectively led by Lu Jiude, the eunuch of the supervising army, Chen Hongfan, Zuo Liangyu, Mou Wenshou, etc., and at the same time paid 2.8 million taels to encircle and suppress Zhang Xianzhong. The collection of 2.8 million taels was also made by Qin Yiming.

After the cunning Zhang Xianzhong knew the intentions of the officers and soldiers, he immediately turned around and returned to Henan, at this time Zhang Xianzhong was outside Nanyang City, Henan, preparing to wait for an opportunity to capture Nanyang City, Nanyang was in danger.

Xiong Wencan is a thorough civil servant, and the reason why he can be appreciated by the imperial court ministers and Chongzhen is mainly because of his political achievements in Fujian.

In the first year of Chongzhen, Xiong Wencan promoted the right to the imperial history, governor of Fujian, when piracy was prevalent, seriously affecting the security of Fujian, but the navy of the imperial court did not dare to fight, Xiong Wencan decided to divide and use after research, he advocated recruiting pirates, appointing the then great pirate Zheng Zhilong as the five tiger guerrilla general, after Zheng Zhilong, Fujian's naval strength increased greatly, Xiong Wencan let Zheng Zhilong conquer his former brother pirate Li Kuiqi, Liu Xiang success, Chongzhen six years, the Dutch navy attacked the Ming Dynasty, After Zheng Zhilong completely defeated the Dutch East India Company navy, he completely pacified the pirates on the southeast coast, and Zheng Zhilong became the overlord of the southeast coast, taxing past business travel, and quickly accumulating wealth that rivaled the wealth.

Anyway, the pirates on the southeast coast were pacified by Xiong Wencan, Xiong Wencan still has merit, if he didn't divide the pirates, the situation on the southeast coast is unimaginable, so in the eyes of many people, Xiong Wencan is a capable person, Xiong Wencan himself thinks so, he feels that his strategy of dividing and recruiting security is very effective, this time the court asked him to prime minister to suppress the bandits, and he is ready to use his own strategy to calm down the whole situation.

But at present, the effect is not very good, Zhang Xianzhong and others are not at all at present, because Zhang Xianzhong has won several battles in a row, and his arrogance is flourishing, on the other hand, the Ming army has been defeated several times, morale is low, and there is no progress in appeasing him for a while.

Qin Yiming made a vigorous and rapid progress in the Qingtun of the three prefectures of Huguang, and after collecting those tuntian fields and levying additional taxes, some people were happy and some were worried.

The general low-level guards soldiers, they are all extremely happy, they got the tuntian, which means that the future life is guaranteed, those landlords and squires want to resist, but there is no way to sue them, and they can't organize the tenants themselves, so in the end they can only choose to swallow their anger, looking forward to Qin Yiming's early death.

"Has all the work been implemented, has the food been distributed to the military households?" Qin Yiming asked Chen Daquan.

"Lord General Soldier, everything has been implemented, and the food has been distributed."

"Lord Qin, don't we still have a big gap in Pingli Fort, why do we want to send this money down instead of using it to subsidize the consumption of the De'an Military University Hall and Research Institute?" Yang Jiuyi asked.

"Haha, no, these grains and tax silver originally belonged to these guards soldiers, so they should be used on them, as for the silver deficit in Pingli Fort, you don't have to worry, this Qingtun movement may be too big, the entire Jingshi knows about this matter, thanks to this matter, the bonds of our De'an Mansion are also famous, and 500,000 taels have been sold short!" Qin Yiming said happily.

"What? How could this be? "Everyone was shocked.

Song Xiance said lukewarmly: "Don't be so surprised, 300,000 taels of the 500,000 taels were bought by the Kang family, with the leader of the Kang family, plus the emperor's attitude towards us is obviously supportive, so many people began to rush our bonds." ”

"Oh oh, it's still Miss Kang."

"En, I'm rich again, haha" Qin Yiming laughed.

"Report, Household Emergency Military Order!" Just as everyone was talking and laughing, a small soldier came in to report.

The military order was urgent, and Qin Yiming was asked to send troops to Henan to exterminate Zhang Xianzhong, Qin Yiming immediately issued an order, and within three days, he gathered more than 10,000 elite soldiers from Weiyangwei, De'an and Suizhou, and prepared to leave Wuyang Pass and set off to Henan.

"Thousands of households in Suizhou are as fierce as tigers, leading two thousand elite soldiers to report!" Outside Anlu County, fierce as a tiger shouted.

"Li Cheng, the commander of the Weiwei Guard, led two thousand elite soldiers to report!" Li Cheng also arrived.
