Self-established as the king of Shu, but after all, there is still a nominal court, as a crossing clan, although he believes in the principle of strength, the most basic drama still has to be done.

Just when everyone solemnly knelt down to pay a visit, Yang Xuan also basically sorted out the key points of future governance.

With a sad face, he looked at everyone: "Everyone, everyone is really hurting me today, since ancient times, there has been no good end for the ministers, but in order not to end up like Yue Fei and Han Yanxuan, it is more for our billions of Han compatriots to live, and now they are being roasted on the fire by everyone, you are really harming me." ”

Qian Bangqi, Liu Changlin and others showed their faces, in their opinion, the best way is to coexist peacefully with the imperial court, the monarch and the ministers are safe, they advocate bribery and self-defilement, please let the lord rest assured, they didn't expect to do such a thing as being outstanding under their noses.

Now they are complaining in their hearts, thinking that Jiang Dingzhen, Ren Su, Feng Youqing and others are traitors, making the reputation of the adults humiliated.

Jiang Dingzhen, Ren Su and others were happy, these people were originally Ming ministers, once surrendered to the Liukou, in the eyes of Qian Bangqi Liu Changlin and others, there is a big loss, and now they are successful, who in the world will care about their past behavior, they can also openly say that the Ming Dynasty officialdom is corrupt, the local ingenuity is plundered, the people live in hardship, and they have taken a detour in order to save the country and save the people.

In the end, he finally met the master, was loyal, exhausted, and left a name in history.

In history, many founding ministers are like this, just like Qin Shubao, Cheng Zhijie, Wei Zheng, and Xu Maogong in the Tang Dynasty.

Now the adults are talking about harming him, which is undoubtedly the opposite, and the real meaning is to tell everyone that since you want to stand up, then now everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, sharing weal and woe.

Seeing that because of the support of this matter, there are two factions formed, although the number of opponents is small, but the Ming Dynasty has been founded for more than 300 years, and it is even more difficult to clear the opposition forces.

After thinking about this, Yang Xuan talked about his ideals, as a traversing clan, he has no other skills, and of course he has brainwashing skills.

Talking about his own background, when he was a child, the government was tyrannical and expropriating, the government officials were clever and robbed, and the local gentry bullied the kind, and he studied the sages and sages hard, hoping to be able to serve the officials and benefit the locality.

Starting from his failure in the imperial examination, he can obviously win the main list, but some corrupt officials actually change to the deputy list on the grounds of being young, in order to better hone the other party.

Starting from his own divorce, the world is cold, but there is still a righteous way among the people, and many students who have never met in the past are eager to show righteous indignation and moral support.

.....

By talking about past experiences, it is to arouse everyone's sympathy and arouse everyone's sympathy.

After that, it is to justify themselves, some people make rumors, slander themselves to eliminate dissent, and we need to look at the actions of these dissidents.

Li Zhanchun, Yu Dahai, and Pi Xiong occupied the place, expanded the army by tens of thousands, and took advantage of the local area, forcibly conscripting the people.

Liukou entered Yunnan and threatened the rear, if the defense of the expedition was unstable, how could he go into battle to kill the enemy and defeat the enemy?

In the end, it is my own ideals, to restore justice in the world, to eliminate the great evils of the world, to expel the Tartars, and to restore China.

Even though opponents may have some or the same opinion on the specifics, the results are evident in general, especially in the area of domestic reform.

Now the three salaries are abolished, and the levy and conscription in other places are abolished, and the endowment for fertile land is no more than 6 liters of rice per mu, and the endowment for dryland fields is no more than 6 liters of wheat per mu, which is lower than in the peaceful years of the past.

In the past, the local government advocated the co-governance of the gentry, but allowed the ruffians and gentry to control the place, they set up checkpoints in various markets, forcibly levied merchants, they bribed officials, became the official silver, but rarely handed over to the imperial court.

The establishment of township offices and the abolition of local ruffians and gentry to collect business taxes not only greatly increased tax revenues, but also strengthened local control.

......

Yang Xuan talked eloquently, and some people sobbed even more when they remembered their past encounters, at least this remark can basically soothe the dissatisfaction of opponents and keep the other party from making any radical moves.

But after all, it is a big matter to establish himself as a king, Li Zicheng sent to meet Emperor Chongzhen when he besieged Beijing, hoping to split the soil and seal the king, and now he is doing such a thing as a minister, what does the court think, what do the officials think, what do the soldiers think, what do the people think? (In history, Sun Kewang, the leader of Daxi, almost openly broke with the Yongli court because of the division of the king of Qin)

Face is given by oneself, although the court is ruthless and unjust, but face always has to be enough for the other party, and whether the other party receives it or not, that's another matter.

The next day, the main officials met, and Yang Xuan said with a worried face: "Everyone, I am forced by everyone to set myself up as a king, although I have no choice, but there is a court, no matter what, I also need to report to the court, so that the princes of the court can understand my difficulties, and don't let His Majesty the Emperor doubt it." ”

When everyone heard this, they thought that this was the right way, but they had different opinions about the dispatchers.

Qian Bangxin, Liu Changlin and others believed that important ministers should be sent to dredge up and ease relations with the imperial court.

Jiang Dingzhen, Ren Su and others disagreed, believing that since the wood had been completed, it was impossible for the imperial court to agree, and only one or two messengers were needed.

Seeing that everyone was almost arguing in the hall, Yang Xuan's eyes lit up, which was almost the same as yesterday's supportive statement.

After thinking about it, Yang Xuan quickly made a decision to take Liu Changlin and Zhang Lang as the main and deputy envoys to go to Zhaoqing, and no matter what, he had to obtain an edict from the imperial court, which was recognized by the imperial court and was named the king of Shu.

Please seal the county lord Zhu Shuying as the princess of Shu, and her son Yang Wu as the prince.

Feng eldest son Yang Wen is the Marquis of Peng, inheriting his original title.

Please decree that Yin Chengqi, Li Dingguo, Cao Xun, He Zhen, Fan Mingshan, Chen Yingzong, Chen Huaixi, Feng Youqing and others be made earls......

In order to boost morale, Yang Xuan announced that as long as he could recover the Central Plains and the Second Capital, he would ask the imperial court to seal the land in the future and become a real prince. (Yungui is located in the southwest, the place is remote, there are many local toasts, everyone sees that one by one toast is like a local emperor for the blessing of power, life is extravagant, has already been tempted.)

Just like many parents in the previous life, there is nothing to work hard and complain, and I hope that my children will be safe and secure in the future.

In ancient times, many parents worked hard for themselves and did nothing, just hoping to leave a permanent birth for their offspring. (Just like the author's ancestor Yijie Buyi, who moved from Huguang to northern Sichuan, after several generations of operation, finally had a thin yield, and insisted on dividing a part of the land into public land before the death of the immortal, for future generations to study).

Although there are also a few people who think that the southwest is remote and the land is barren and unwilling to live here, Yang Xuan has made it clear that in the future, he only needs to choose one or two descendants to live in the fiefdom.

Everyone was overjoyed, especially Feng Youqing and others secretly congratulated themselves on participating in the support. ）

After Liu Changlin left, Yang Xuan asked Jiangding Town to act as the governor of Guizhou, so as not to slack off in government affairs.

In order to strengthen local control, Yan Bizu, Jin Weixin, Gong Ming, and others were sent out to serve as officials or in the army.

While actively adjusting internal affairs, Yang Xuan did not dare to be modest about major military affairs, and after five days, by mid-December of this year, the situation of the Qing army was basically ascertained.

Jierharang led his troops into Hunan Province, including Jierharang's Manchuria inlaid with blue flags, Luckedhun's Manchurian Zheng Red Banner, Liu Zhiyuan's Han army inlaid with yellow flags, Tong Guolai's Han army defeated flag, Dingnan Wang Kong Youde, Xushun Gong Shen Yongzhong and other departments, plus Xu Yong and other Zuo Liangyu troops who had already surrendered to the barbarian Qing Dynasty, its strength exceeded 70,000, which can not be said to be not strong.

Everyone gathered in front of the sand table, studying the current situation, Yang Xuan pointed to the sand table with a baton, and said, "The road we have to kill is nothing more than these few."

Soldiers out of Longdong, soldiers out of Guanzhong, these two roads Zhuge Liang has walked, the road is difficult and dangerous, very difficult to walk, not to mention the alliance between the Barbarian Qing and Mongolia, if we enter the Guanzhong Plain like this, in the face of tens of thousands of Barbarian Qing Eight Banners, so there is no doubt about defeat.

After the success of the Eastern Expedition, I controlled the south of the Yangtze River, relying on the taxes of Jiangnan, Huguang, Guangzhou, and Guangxi, with many soldiers and a wide range of generals, and sufficient food and salary, so that even if the Tartars had the advantage of cavalry, it would be difficult to defeat me.

There are no more than three roads to the east, and the most beneficial to us is, of course, along the Han River to go out of Xiangyang, or along the Yangtze River to go out of Kuizhou, so that there is Han River and the Yangtze River to ensure the transportation of the army, and the second disadvantage is to send troops out of Gui (state).

This road was not only a difficult and dangerous road, but also because the warlords fought for many years, the people were not able to make a living, and it was difficult to supply the army with military rations.

And the best decisive place for the Tartars is, of course, Guanzhong, followed by Xiangyang, followed by the Jianghan Plain, and the worst is in Huhu (South?).

Why is this so? The main reason is that the Tartars have just occupied Huguang, the people are not convinced, the local waterways are staggered, which is not conducive to the Tartar cavalry to fight, the weather is hot, the Tartars will return to Jiangbei in the summer to escape the heat, and there are long supply lines. ”

Everyone is a veteran of leading troops to fight, although everyone has no opinion, but there are many benefits for soldiers to enter Guanzhong and Longdong.

In order to persuade everyone, Yang Xuan thought of the temperature, took the thermometer, Yang Xuan explained: "Everyone, I have a thermometer here, this is a Westerner's thing.

It's the wax moon now, and the water is here, and if it's summer, the liquid swells, and it's here.

In other words, the Tartars are very unaccustomed to the climate, and the deep ravines and ravines on the way make it even more difficult than fighting in the far north.

If we can attract the main force of the Barbarian Qing to fight in the south, then our troops will go out of the Three Gorges, and we can order the naval army to blockade the Yangtze River and prevent it from crossing the river, which will be of great benefit to our annihilation of the Tartars and the victory of the Huguang battlefield. ”

When Wang Xiang heard this, he exclaimed again and again: "My lord, it turns out that there are so many things to pay attention to in the war, in the past, we only knew to charge forward with our heads covered, but now it is really an eye-opener, this is probably in the midst of strategizing." ”

Yang Xuan smiled and said: "Everyone, don't worry, I won't hide my secrets, and when the time comes, I will train the personnel above the rank of general in the army."

Of course, the battalion and below rely on courage, best like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

But the higher you go, if the expulsion of the Tartars is successful, whether you are a staff officer now, or you are already a deputy general or a general soldier, you may be in charge alone.

Ladies and gentlemen, I have made up my mind, Li Dingguo will march out of Liping, go north after capturing Jingzhou, and seize Yuanzhou together with Guo Chonglie's 3rd Town, which goes south.

This time, we have to prepare for a decisive battle with the Tartars in Yuanzhou, and send troops to the lake (the taste of the south, so that the Tartars can't stop, so we have to send heavy troops to garrison the lake (south. ”

Everyone was happy when they heard this, this time the volunteers were violent, it was just a strategic feint, was this too much fuss.

But this is to make a big fuss, that is, to make the Manchus feel that the main direction of attack of the Volunteers is to defend the empty lake (south, so that the Manchu defense forces are scattered.

In order to achieve the goal of luring the enemy south, Yang Xuan personally wrote a personal letter to Jierharang, hoping that he would not become the ghost of the knife after Bu Haoge, Luo Luohun, and Nikan, and hoped that he would be able to push out the lake (south.

Everyone laughed, and Qian Bangqi smiled: "My lord, isn't this a little too good, although our volunteers are strong, but the Tartars are overwhelming, and we are not sure of victory." ”

Yang Xuan smiled and said, "Oh, of course I know this, I'm afraid that the Tartars will leave, this battle is not easy to fight."

In other towns, all departments have been greatly expanded this year, and everyone must train diligently, and everyone is ready to fight at any time. ”

When everyone heard this, they all claimed yes.
