Chapter 90: Tear down and start over
In Datong, Shanxi, a group of people gathered outside the General Soldier's Mansion, shouting to see Jiang Xuan, the chief soldier of Datong.
This group of people, dressed in silk and satin, are all landlords and gentry and businessmen in Datong.
They heard that the emperor was going to personally levy the land to the people, and the holy decree had already arrived at the Datong General Military Mansion!
With the Holy Decree, there is also Da Ming Bao!
Daming Daily said that the capital has really divided the fields!
Not only the capital, but also the North Zhili is also dividing the fields!
Daming Bao said that the emperor drove the emperor to divide the land to the people of the world!
What to say, the whole world is not the king's land, since it is all the king's land, of course the field is also the emperor's, so the emperor wants to contract the emperor's own land to the people.
It's worth it! So the landlords, gentry and businessmen of Datong gathered in Jiang Huang's mansion, and asked Jiang Huang to give an explanation and give them justice!
This Jiang Jiu was originally just the general army of Datong, and when Li Zicheng attacked Shanxi, he Jiang Jiu directly surrendered to Li Zicheng. If you don't surrender, you're a fool, so he doesn't learn from that fool Zhou Yuji, the general soldier of Shanxi, Li Zicheng has hundreds of thousands of troops, what to defend, Zhou Yuji's fool is beyond his strength, you see, Taiyuan was broken by Li Zicheng in less than half a month, not only killed himself, but also killed his family.
Jiang Jiu was different, without hurting a single soldier, he directly surrendered to Li Zicheng, and Li Zicheng asked him to continue to garrison Datong. Later, Chongzhen and Li Zicheng negotiated to make peace, cut Shaanxi and Henan, and left this Shanxi, and Jiang Jiu automatically returned to the Ming Dynasty.
And after Li Zicheng's toss in Shanxi, Jiang Huang fell and returned, and Shanxi Buzheng was the most powerful for him.
In the chaos of war, whoever has the power of the army is the boss.
At this time, Jiang Hao seemed to have become a soil emperor.
Naturally, the Emperor of the Earth would not let his interests be violated, and this meeting was planned by him.
Divide the field, divide the field on his Jiang Jiu's territory, this is worth it!
So Jiang Hao contacted his cronies, distributed the content of the holy decree and told those landlords, gentry and businessmen: Beizhili has divided the land, and the land and money have been confiscated and confiscated to those poor ghosts and people, and now the emperor is going to come to Datong and confiscate your fields together, you go to Jiang Zongbing Jiang to administer justice to you!
What is justice?
It is to let the emperor weigh and weigh, whether to divide the land to the poor ghosts and the people, or let these landlords, gentry and businessmen support him Jiang Hao to stand on his own!
In fact, as long as the emperor is not excessive, he Jiang Jiu will not have an opinion. Jin Yiwei came to Shanxi without saying a word to steal the eight Jin merchants and took away thousands of silver, did he Jiang Hao say anything?
But this time, the emperor is forcing people to rebel!
Divide the field, who has the most fields, of course, it is his Jiang Xuan! Who is the person who has lost the most, of course, it is him Jiang Xuan!
The landlords and gentry and businessmen gathered more and more, and when they saw that they couldn't control the situation, Jiang Hao asked the guards to let the landlords and gentry and businessmen in and let them go to the hall. These people came in and talked about it.
"Do you think Master Jiang's words can be useful?"
"If it's really Juntian, Lord Jiang loses the most, Lord Jiang has soldiers and horses, if Lord Jiang is useless to speak, then no one can speak for us!"
........
Jiang Hao looked at the landlords and gentry and businessmen in the hall, almost a hundred people, almost all the rich and landed people in Datong came, so he stepped forward and said: "Everyone please drink tea, they are all squires with heads and faces in Datong, but I don't know why everyone is surrounding my general military mansion today?" ”
One of the people in the crowd said, "Lord Jiang, how can we have leisure to drink tea!" ”
Another person in the crowd asked: "Lord Jiang, Xiaomin looked at the Daming newspaper and said that the emperor was coming to Datong to supervise the division of the fields, and he had already issued a holy decree, I don't know if there is such a thing?" ”
Jiang Hao picked up the teacup, took a sip slowly, and said: "There is indeed such a thing, the holy decree just arrived in Datong yesterday, and the official is preparing to summon the officials of Datong to come over to discuss how to maintain the order of this field!" ”
Landlord Liu said: "Lord Jiang, isn't this division of land just confiscating the family!" We are all honest people who abide by the law, why are we confiscated in a daze? ”
Squire Zhang also said: "Lord Jiang, the text in the Daming Daily only named the rebels and thieves as Li Zicheng, Zhu Yousong and Zhu Changshu. But the emperor came to Shanxi and asked us to divide our fields to those poor ghosts and people, and if we don't divide them, we will be chaotic ministers and thieves, how can there be such a truth in the world! ”
Li Yuanwai also chimed in: "Yes, Lord Jiang, the emperor took these savings that we have worked so hard to accumulate, and the emperor will divide them without saying a word, what is the difference between this and Li Zicheng's thieves!" ”
"Yes, Lord Jiang, when Li Zicheng passed Datong, he also asked us to donate some food, and the emperor directly asked for our field!"
"Master Jiang, you are the general soldier of Datong and the patron saint of Shanxi, you have to say a fair word for us!"
"Yes, Master Jiang! Dividing up our fields, isn't it our lives? When the man had finished speaking, he began to wail.
"Lord Jiang, although you are the chief soldier, in this troubled world, only you can protect the people!"
Seeing that the crowd was getting more and more excited, Jiang Hao was very satisfied, and what he wanted was such an effect. But the necessary excuses are still required, otherwise why will you obediently pay for food!
"Everyone has a point, I, Jiang Xuan, also have thousands of acres of land, let me divide it like this, I am reluctant, but I, Jiang Huang, am just a general soldier, and I can't do anything. In the capital, officials who were unwilling to confiscate were killed, and Cheng Guogong and even Guozhang were killed! ”
"Well, what is this going on.....
"Our old Zhang's family's Tian ......"
"What's the difference between this and raiding a house! The emperor didn't think about how to quell the thieves, but learned from Li Zicheng's thieves and thieves, this emperor, I don't accept it! ”
"I'm not convinced! It's the other way around! ”
"That's right! It's the other way around! ”
............
Beijing, Qianqing Palace.
Bailize: Your Majesty, you know that Jiang Jiu will rebel, why don't you prepare in advance?
Chongzhen: A little Jiang Jiu, I can summon him to Beijing, and then find a crime to kill him. But will my policy be promoted in Shanxi in the future? Will you be able to divide the field? No, there are also Liu Qianhu Zhang landlord Li Yuanwai, these are the head snakes! If these ground snakes are not removed, it is useless to make any preparations!
Bailize: Many officials in the capital are willing to confiscate in the end, and the emperor, you will let them live.
Chongzhen: In the capital, I have Tianziwei, and those landlords and gentry whose property has been confiscated dare not do anything. But in Datong, Shanxi, the military power is in their hands, and they will definitely not obediently obey.
Balizer: So many people have rebelled, and if you fight, you will have to die a lot.
Chongzhen: Daming has long been decayed, and only by completely changing and rebuilding can it be reborn! As for how many people will die, it depends on you Jinyi Guard, you try to publicize it, break into the soldiers, and let the soldiers and people of Datong know who they are rebelling against! The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have been oppressed by the generals for a long time, and the people of the Ming Dynasty have been oppressed by the landlords and gentry for a long time. ”
Bailize: Weichen must live up to the emperor's expectations and complete this matter!
