When Zhang Jiayu didn't enter the house just now, the three people in the house were discussing this issue, and now when Zhang Jiayu mentioned it, the governor Liu Siyun said: "Teacher, what Master Zhang said is very right, these Qiu Ba don't study and don't know how to be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, and if they don't beat them, I'm afraid that there will be repetition in the future!" ”

Yu Yinggui had led troops to fight before, and knew that these Qiu Ba who were soldiers were rude, righteous and shameless, but he didn't agree with such unreasonable suppression as Zhang Jiayu.

"I also agree with what the two adults said, but now is the time to employ people, if the suppression is ruthless, it is inevitable that the two Jin Wang will have two hearts!"

What Yu Yinggui said is precisely the eternal problem of ancient China, the problem of warlord secession. Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism, Confucianism has become the belief of intellectuals, and intellectuals who have received Confucian education have also taken the idea of great unification and loyalty to the monarch as their own responsibility, which also objectively ensures the continuity of imperial power, so the emperors after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty are fully promoting Confucian education for their vital interests. Confucianism finally reached its peak in the Sui Dynasty, and Confucianism became the national norm for the selection of officials by the state, and also contributed to the fact that China did not become a small country divided by hundreds like Europe.

However, there are a thousand advantages to the officials selected through the imperial examination, but one of them is not good, the military capability is insufficient, and it is inconceivable that a country will not have the guarantee of force for long-term peace and stability. The Tang Dynasty used the system of temperance envoys, that is, the establishment of temperance envoys in some key parts of the country, and the grasp of military personnel and finance in the jurisdiction. In this way, of course, the combat effectiveness is strong, if the Central Plains Dynasty declines, the various festivals will immediately become a major problem for the Central Plains Dynasty, as is the case with the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty and the warlord secession in the late Tang Dynasty.

In the Song Dynasty, he learned the lessons of the Tang Dynasty and concentrated all the elite troops in the capital, forming a situation of strong cadres and weak branches, of course, this is good, there are no available soldiers in the hands of the generals, but in this way, there is no Ningri in the border pass, and in the Song Dynasty, except for Song Taizu, there is no emperor who has fought a few beautiful battles.

Then in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang absorbed the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty and came up with a guard system. But Lao Zhu is just a peasant, and he doesn't know that there is no political system in this world once and for all. The guard system was already inappropriate in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and there was no way to make a conscription system, but this returned to the old road of the Tang Dynasty, and the generals had power in their hands, and it was inevitable that they would not have two hearts after a long time. However, the Ming scholars came up with a good solution, which was to prevent the soldiers from studying. In the eyes of these stinky old nines, if you don't read, you won't threaten them, and it's useless for you to fight the red-headed documents we sent, plus there were indeed a few handsome literati in the late Ming Dynasty, such as Sun Chengzong, Hong Chengchou, Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting and others, so this set can be used.

But in the Southern Ming Dynasty, things completely changed, and the four towns in Jiangbei were able to lead troops to threaten intellectuals, and they could also influence the abolition of the emperor, which made intellectuals who had been awesome for hundreds of years feel deep fear.

So today, Zhang Jiayu said that he was afraid of the recurrence of the disaster of the four towns in Jiangbei, and the other three people in the house all thought it was true.

Zhang Jiayu saw that the three of them listened to it, and hurriedly said: "Three adults, Nanchang was burned down by King Jin, most of the city was burned to the ground, and hundreds of thousands of people were displaced. But there will definitely be a saying about the matter of Nanchang in the future, although the Nanchang fire has nothing to do with the three adults, but the three adults are the superiors of the two kings, and there is still some joint responsibility, even if it is the elder of the pavilion, it will not be able to get rid of the relationship! ”

Zhang Jiayu's words were like the whispers of the devil to bewitch the three of them, yes, although the fire was lit by those two bastards, but they couldn't escape the relationship. Thinking of this, Liu Siyi, who had just been promoted to the governor of Jiangxi, said: "Lord Zhang, do you have any good plans?" ”

"Hehe, in fact, His Majesty the Emperor also knew that the situation in Nanchang was urgent at that time, but such a major event as burning more than 100,000 people must require one person to carry the black pot, and the three adults are naturally impossible, the king of Nanchang County is a relative of Ma Ge Lao, so naturally he can't move, and only Wang Deren has no roots and no power, and Wang Deren is a thief, and he has done a lot of things like slaughtering the city, so it's better to let him carry it!"

Jiang Yueguang and the three of them are not old ladies who eat fasting and chant Buddha, of course they love to do this kind of thing that harms others and benefits themselves, sacrificing Wang Deren and making everyone happy, this kind of business is too cost-effective.

Jiang Yueguang looked at Yu Yinggui and Liu Siyun without speaking, and knew that they also agreed. Jiang Yueguang stood up and said: "Lord Zhang, there are still many things in the city, we have a great responsibility, so we won't stay with you for a long time, tomorrow Lord Zhang will arrange a trip to the city after the new army, I will discuss what to do next!" ”

After Jiang Yueguang finished speaking, he got up and took Yu Liu and the others out of the city to return to the city. After Zhang Jiayu came back, he smiled secretly in his heart: It's done. After these three people return home, they will definitely give the emperor a table, and put the basin on Wang Deren's head, and when Wang Deren's head falls to the ground, Jin Shenghuan will be left alone in Jiangxi, and His Majesty the Emperor finally does not have to worry about the warlord tail.

At the same time that Zhang Jiayu and the four of them were discussing who to use to carry the black pot, Jin Shenghuan, the king of Nanchang County, didn't know that he had almost become a scapegoat, and was talking happily with Zhu Hai at this time.

As an old fox, Jin Shenghuan knew in a few words that Zhu Hai was a gentle person, much stronger than his bad pus-shedding father, and Jin Shenghuan also liked this sunny nephew Zhu Hai very much.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also a member of our ranks, how does His Highness feel about being a soldier?"

"I used to live in the palace, I really didn't know how difficult it was to be a soldier, there were only two of us left in one of our comrades-in-arms, and the others all died under the rain of arrows from the Manchu Tartars!"

Jin Shenghuan didn't expect Zhu Hongsan to be so ruthless, in order to train his son, he let him go directly to the front line to join the army, what if there was a mistake? Jin Shenghuan didn't know that it was also a mistake for Zhu Hai to be brought to the front line, and Zhu Hongsan was no longer a human being, and he couldn't let his own son die.

"Your Highness, what were you talking about in the room just now? I didn't know if I was in the house! ”

Zhu Hai smiled and said, "I didn't talk about anything, Mr. Jiang thought I ran out without permission and was teaching me in the house!" "Although Zhu Hai is benevolent, he is not a fool, just now those stinky old Jiu Ming in the house were pretending to calculate Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren, as a good student of Zhang Jiayu, Zhu Hai can say this to an uncle Wang who has just met.

Jin Shenghuan didn't say anything when he saw that Zhu Hai, and he didn't want to ask deeply, only chatting with each other. After a while, I came to the Yonghe Gate of the North Gate of Nanchang, this place is the main battlefield, although there is no Desheng Gate, there are corpses all over the field, but it is almost the same. The mountain of corpses piled up outside Yonghemen is about to touch the city, and it seems that if the Guangdong New Army arrives half a day late, Yonghemen's side will also be in danger.

Zhu Hai's first step was to pass through the Qing army's siege camp, now the Qing army has retreated, there is no one inside, but there are still some captured strong men cannon fodder, their homes have been burned, relatives have been killed, and now the war is over, I don't know where to go at all, only blindly wandering in the Qing army camp. If he encountered a wounded soldier wearing a Qing military uniform, he would go up to fight, and Zhu Hai saw with his own eyes that a wounded Mongolian soldier was bitten off by an old lady.

Because these cannon fodder were robbed of food by the Qing army, they had nothing to eat on their bodies, so they could only look for what they saw in the abandoned barracks and eat what they saw.

Xiang Rong'er followed behind Zhu Hai, seeing that these people were pitiful, and at the same time remembered the tragic situation of herself and her father Xiang Laosan's exile, and reached out and took out half a bag of oil tea from her backpack, which is a necessary marching dry food for the new army, and this bag can be eaten by one person for three days. Xiang Rong'er was hungry in the house just now, and she had half a bag left after eating a little, and now she was throwing it to these people.

Xiang Rong'er threw out this half bag of food with good intentions, but as soon as the poor woman picked it up, she was snatched by a strong man next to her, and then untied the bag and munched on it. Many other people around had nothing to eat, and when they saw that Xiang Rong'er had food, they all cast dissatisfied and kind eyes.

Jin Shenghuan saw these hungry people slowly coming up and knew that it was going to be bad, and he only came out with 500 personal soldiers, and now there are more than 100,000 hungry people in the camp of the Qing army, which will rush up and his life will not be guaranteed.

Jin Shenghuan hurriedly ordered his own personal captain, Jin Er, to speed up the march and get rid of the hungry people.

The hungry people in these large camps had been hungry for many days, and wherever they had the strength to chase after the galloping horses, they were quickly thrown away.

Jin Shenghuan didn't know what the relationship between Xiang Rong'er and Zhu Hai was, and he didn't dare to scold, so he had to turn around and say patiently: "This little friend, don't give food among the hungry people, if you don't make it, we will lose our lives!" ”

"But they didn't eat, and the government didn't care?"

Jin Shenghuan listened to Xiang Rong'er's innocent question, and said with a wry smile: "There is also a shortage of food in Nanchang City, not to mention these farmers who were captured as cannon fodder, the Qing army arrested them to let them die, so they can still prepare food for them!" ”

Xiang Rong'er opened her mouth in fright and asked, "Are these people going to be killed?" This... There are more than 100,000 people, how can they be killed! ”

"This young lady, you don't know, in order to attack the city, the Qing army gathered corpses into a mountain shape on the side of Desheng Gate, and then rode horses on it to attack the city, if it wasn't for your timely rescue, Nanchang would have been broken!"

Xiang Rong'er wore the Guangdong New Army uniform, but she could hide from an old pervert like Jin Shenghuan, Xiang Rong'er blushed after being told by Jin Shenghuan, and was about to ask what the corpse mountain was like. At this time, the horse team had already rushed through the Qing army camp, and the ten-meter-high corpse pile outside Yonghe Gate appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Zhu Hai and Xiang Rong'er participated in the decisive battle in the morning, they thought that being killed by the artillery of the new army was the worst, but they didn't expect to know today that there was such a cruel thing in the world.
