Compared with Nanyang Town, the Longwang Temple construction site is smoother.

There were more than 100 guards in total, or the kind that lacked the most actual combat, only guarding the craftsmen, and the combat effectiveness was afraid that even the ordinary jailers were not as good as the ordinary jailers, and after being quickly surrounded, after only one round of gunfire, more than half of the guards were directly wounded and killed, and the rest knelt down and surrendered like more than 2,000 craftsmen and officials.

And the only squire who stood proudly was also quickly escorted to Zhang Zhen because of the eye-catching official uniform.

Song Shilang saw Zhang Zhen and said angrily: "It's actually you?!" It's a shame that Lord Shangshu and Zhang Yushi value you so much, and they want to sign a joint name... Yes! ... Protect you, you are not good at progressing, and you are doing this rebellious deed! It's really infuriating! ”

was kicked to the crook of the leg, even after kneeling, Song Shilang still roared continuously.

Zhang Zhen sneered: "In the past, adults treated each other politely, and Zhang Zhen didn't want to embarrass Lord Song, but! Don't talk nonsense if you don't know what's going on! ”

As he spoke, he asked, "My tenant rents me three acres of land, do you know how much tax I have to pay?" More than 1,400 catties of grain! This is still on the surface, and it is even more to take advantage of the fact that no one is taking care of it, and robbing hundreds of catties of grain in general, which is more than 2,000 catties of grain and three acres of land! This family of four injured the pillar of the family, the only man! Crying blind old lady! He also kicked a child of a few years old to death! If I didn't make a move, I don't know how miserable it would end! It's not an exaggeration to say that the family is ruined, right?! It's just because of the greed of the officials down there! Greedy!! ”

Zhang Zhen said hatefully: "If you want the people to be obedient to the people, you must let the people have food and clothing even if it is not good, right?" After working hard for more than half a year, the harvest was looted to make the people's fat and people's ointment, and he also took the lives of his family members, regarded the people as fish and meat, and bullied them wantonly. ”

Song Mei was stunned after hearing this, he only heard about the amazing harvest in Wanghu Village, and he didn't know what happened to him, so he was angry in his heart and hated: "This is the evil of the local officials, and it is just a few black sheep, but if it is found out, it will definitely be a serious crime!" When I read the books of the sages, the vast majority of them are still good officials who love the people like sons! You can also be regarded as eliminating harm for the people, it is understandable, and you can stop it lightly, I hope you can do it yourself! ”

"The vast majority? Good officer? Hahahaha! Zhang Zhen said with a smile: "If as the adults said, the vast majority of them are good officials, and Li Chuang, Wang Zhang Xianzhong, etc., can still be powerful again and again?" There are millions of followers at every turn, but those who stutter can continue their lives, who dares to rebel? It's not that the government is forced to do it, but the officials are forced to rebel against the people! In such a situation, how can adults have the face to say that the vast majority of them are good officials? Like Lord Zhang Guowei, if there is a second place in the Ming Dynasty, it will not be like this! ”

At this time, the king of Chuang, Li Zicheng's soldiers in Kaifeng have been spread to the canal line for many days, since the city of Luoyang was broken, another ancient capital is in danger, or the ancient capital of the Eight Dynasties, dozens of millions of rebels are attacking the city day and night, no one knows how long this Kaifeng can support.

Zhang Zhen's words, Song Shilang was speechless, and I didn't know how to refute it for a long time.

For Zhang Yushi, this Song Shilang also really admires.

Compared with the collusion of other officials in the open and secret, and the small abacus of various interests, the people Zhang are just tendons for the people's life, for the sake of the people.

Not to mention the Chongzhen period, there are only a handful of such good officials, even since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

Song Shilang admires and admires, it is absolutely impossible for him to do this, he can't do it at all! He believes that even no one else can do it.

In addition to Zhang Guowei, those who claim to be honest are either for promotion or to raise hope, and the purpose of raising hope is ultimately to be promoted, anyway, it is all about interests, so how can there be a second place?

He can stay in Nanyang to build this Dragon King Temple, why not raise hope?

To say that the most aggrieved official in the entire Ming Dynasty is none other than him Song Shilang.

The two imperial courts of the Ming Dynasty, the six and the others, are all in the center of power, but the Ministry of Industry and the Guozijian are always pressed by the Southern Court.

Guozijian is also helpless, it is rich in the south of the Yangtze River, the literary style is prevalent, and there are more splendid chapters.

The famine in the north for many years, the sharp decline in population, and the troubled times are not conducive to the students and students to study, which is tantamount to adding insult to injury in the literary officialdom, but fortunately, the northern prison has become accustomed to being pressed by the southern prison of Jinling, and it is such a passive situation, although it is aggrieved, but also resigned.

But the Ministry of Industry is very different, this is one of the six ministries, in addition to the cabinet, this is the pinnacle that Wenchen can do, and it can best represent the wind direction of officialdom.

Compared with the incomparable strength of the Ministry of Soldiers of the Beijing Division, the power of the Ministry of Rites and the Criminal Department of the Ministry of Rites is overwhelming the Nanting, and if the Ministry of Household is shameless, the Ministry of Industry is dark and suppressed.

The lifeblood of the Ming Dynasty is the Grand Canal, the Longjiang Shipyard in Jinling occupies the convenience of the location, the convenience of material purchase, and the stability of the south, the most gathering of craftsmen, compared to the Qingjiang Shipyard under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Beijing Division, that is to occupy the time and place of the people, the ship is naturally impeccable, whether it is the government or the people, the south ship is the first choice.

Another main business of the Ministry of Industry, the production of firearms, is not as good as the south, but it is better to die, that the old man who returned to his hometown, the former Nanting Ministry of Industry Lang Bi Maokang, after the Shi also compiled the military illustration, which made the Nanting Ministry of Industry unparalleled.

In the past six years since the book was rigid, the Ministry of Industry of Nanting has been rewarded by the emperor every time, from Shangshu to ordinary officials.

And on the side of the Jingshi, there are generals who are constrained, except for the Shangshu Lord Liu Zunxian, who is as stable as Mount Tai because of the Qing Dynasty, since the eighth year of Chongzhen, the servants of the Ministry of Works have changed like a horse.

Perhaps the only fig leaf for the successive servants of the Ministry of Industry is a flint gun called the self-generated fire system on the weapon diagram, although the musket is not afraid of rain and snow, even if it is used by strong men, it can be exhausted in two or three times, extremely impractical, and has become a laughing stock in the government and the opposition.

Song Shilang was unwilling, but he couldn't refute it, and looked at Bei Zhu in shame, but he saw something abnormal at this shocking glance.

It is also the joke of the self-generated fire system, every time it is used as a talking point, it has penetrated into the hearts of all the officials of the Beijing Division of Industry except for Lord Shangshu, at first glance, seeing that the musket has no arquebus, Song Shilang was instinctively stunned for a moment, and then laughed bitterly at himself.

Song Shilang sighed: "Pity me, Song Mei I, who is famous, was defeated by such a waste gun as the self-generated fire system, so what kind of shame do you have to see Your Majesty?" Come on, sword, let me cut myself! ”

Zhang Zhen blinked and smiled after hearing this: "I don't know where Lord Song got the confidence?" Can you look down on this gun? ”

Song Shilang laughed and said, "Hahahaha!! The most impractical thing in Bi Maokang's "Illustrated Description of Weapons" is this self-generated fire system! Also flint shot without fear of rain and snow, I bah! Even if you are born with a wrestler, you can't use it, three or two times and you are exhausted, isn't it a waste? The Manchu Dynasty and the civil and military are disdainful, and they don't want to pick up people's teeth and wisdom in you, ridiculous, ridiculous! ”

Zhang Zhen knew before crossing that the Ming Dynasty invented the flintlock pistol before destroying the country, but did not improve and make a large number of armed Ming troops, which should be the most regrettable thing at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

At this time, it sounds like it is because of the dispute between the north and the south that the Ming Dynasty missed the last opportunity to rise.

Zhang Zhen said with a smile: "Since the adults look down on this gun so much, I wonder if Lord Song has the courage to show the target?" ”
