Chapter 307: Killing Chickens and Monkeys
In the Ming Dynasty's household registration system, military and civilian registration were separated, and in the official definition, there was no such rule that anyone was superior to the other.
However, because of the tradition of scholars and doctors "cultivating and reading heirlooms", and the public opinion that "it is difficult not to be a soldier, and it is good to be iron, not to nail", so even if the people are poor to death, they cannot catch up with those military households who are tenants in the boss's house, and they have a little sense of pride psychologically.
This is also the importance of the right to speak, or in other words, the power of public opinion.
Therefore, after those two unlucky eggs were taken away from their military status, they would definitely not be able to enter the civilian household sequence, plus Xing Hongfang's "perception of the will", these two unlucky eggs would definitely be beaten into the lowly nationality.
What is a lowly status? Generations of slaves, pardon or not, no land and other things in the name, everyone scolds, the basic composition is the gang that committed a big crime or the evil of the emperor, after Emperor Taizong was martyred, he put a group of disobedient officials and family members into the untouchables, in Beijing under the Department of Le Hu and the like, in fact, it is a large collection of these people, and the business run by the untouchables in this part of Zhejiang is basically the male fishing and selling frogs, and the female being a matchmaker and selling x, it is not too miserable.
Of course, these are not the worst, after all, if you are thrown on death row, if you are a little good, you can meet the amnesty of the world and escape a dog name, but this kind of thing is pardonable, and even when the dynasty changes, it will not touch the real bottom.
In other words, these two unlucky people will not only be unlucky themselves, but from them down, their children and grandchildren will suffer.
The vicious curse of "life after life, male thieves and female prostitutes" directly became a reality at this moment.
Of course, Xu Shangyong will not feel the slightest sadness for these two unlucky eggs, under the class gap, the gap between the powerful and the ordinary guards, just like the gap between the commoners and the lowly, from a legal point of view, is fundamentally two species, and between the two species, especially between the two species at the top and bottom of the food chain, without interests as the hub, there will be no emotions similar to "rabbits and foxes are sad".
On the contrary, Yang Shangjing, who was standing on the high platform with a murderous face, felt a little concerned in his heart, he was able to decide the future belonging of the two guards at a glance, why couldn't others decide his life and death and future with a word? Once he was betrayed by the foreign dynasty and calmed the emperor's anger, I am afraid that it is really going to harm the nine clans, before that, the Jian'an Yang clan must fall into the well and make the clearest division with him, the hundreds of years of wealthy families will never decay because of a person's not.
"Military law is ruthless, so you still need to be cautious." With a complicated mood, Yang Shangjing slowly softened his tone, "Soldiers, when it is their duty to obey orders, don't say that Shangfeng Rang Er and others are in today's drill queue, that is, let Er and others strip naked and run wild in the snow, and they have to appeal after the execution!" ”
After speaking, Yang Shangjing shouted: "Do you understand?!" ”
A group of soldiers who were frightened by the cruel methods immediately clicked on one knee and knelt down: "Wow! ”
The voices of more than a thousand people, neatly drawn, were majestic, and Xu Shangyong, who was standing behind Yang Shangjing's side, slowly exhaled a breath, and a complicated light flashed in his eyes.
Yang Shangjing's move, in addition to helping him stabilize the morale of the army and help him establish authority, the most important thing is to thoroughly consolidate military discipline, in this era when the concept of clan is extremely deep-rooted, a person's death cannot cause panic in anyone's heart, the punishment of "razing the three clans" and "exterminating the nine clans", in addition to bringing the refreshment of the inner determination to the person who gives the order, the most important thing is to play a deterrent role.
With the education of his Wei Guogong's son-in-law, of course, he will not naively think that Yang Shangjing is just showing favor to himself, to put it bluntly, he is also the chess piece thrown out by the Xu family of Wei Guogong at both ends, or in other words, abandoned son, Yang Shangjing in this state, even if he pushes his official position to the end, and then kicks back to Nanjing City, no one will say anything, this approach can only point to one possibility in the final analysis, that is, Yang Shangjing has not given up on himself, and wants to rely on the errand of the military affairs of the governor's three mansions, before being sold to the head, Make himself an indispensable figure in the foreign dynasty, and even - he himself has enough backhands to resist the foreign dynasty's betrayal!
Thinking of this, Xu Shangyong couldn't help but gasp, his thoughts slowly drifted, and he even felt that he had glimpsed the heritage and foundation of a hundreds of years of southern wang clan.
At this time, Yang Shangjing turned his head and smiled gently at him: "Meritorious work must be rewarded, and punishment must be punished, since the establishment of the patrol and defense of thousands of households, what is most needed is to strictly enforce military discipline and prohibit orders. ”
The words were not very long, but Xu Shangyong squinted his eyes, and then bowed down to salute: "The last general thanked Langzhong!" ”
Obviously, Yang Shangjing is declaring sovereignty and showing his attitude - before he Yang Shangjing was sold by the bigwigs of the foreign dynasty, he was still the commander in the real sense of this army, which cannot be provoked, and it is absolutely not allowed to provoke, he can write to the Nanjing Military Department to reward him, and he can write to ask for severe punishment.
Yang Shangjing laughed, stretched out his hand to help Xu Shangyong up, and then said with a smile: "This official is here, it was a whim, and now that he sees what he wants to see, he is very relieved, he is very relieved, and the next thing will be left to you." ”
After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for Xu Shangyong to reply, he turned around and walked directly to the bottom of the high platform, Xu Shangyong just wanted to follow, but saw Yang Shangjing turn his head and waved his hand at him: "You can train here, the official is not far back to the city, and there is no need to send him off." ”
"Whoa!" Xu Shangyong replied in a deep voice, watching Yang Shangjing get off the high platform, then turned around, looked at the more than 1,000 soldiers standing straight under the stage, and slowly exhaled a breath, and before he knew it, his small clothes under his armor had been soaked with sweat.
"Young master, this ......" Xu Minying squinted her eyes and asked hesitantly.
Xu Shangyong shook his head: "You take someone to stand here first, and I will write a letter and send it to Nanjing." ”
After speaking, he himself got off the high platform, leaving Xu Minying alone to stand on it, and he couldn't help but be in a hurry about this matter, if Yang Shangjing really had a backhand here, the layout of the Wei Mansion that had just changed must be changed, otherwise, there would be no way to get the most generous return.
