"Are you convicted?" In the Yanai of Jianghua County, Lin Qirong sat in the lobby and looked majestically at the squires who were kneeling on the ground under the hall. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Beside him, there were three other squires sitting on one side, watching nervously.

"Wang ~ Boss ~ Cabinet, Li ~ Old ~ Thief, Sun ~ Old ~ Thief, all come to tie the pen of the tired people (it turned out to be your secret)? Even Huang's hope and curse are tired enough, and the whole Karma is not happy (I, Wang Debang, curse your whole family not to die)! The young man who was pressed to the ground in the hall was Wang Debang, whose tongue was cut off.

He looked at the three squires sitting on the side, and immediately understood the trap in his body, the reason for the failure of the siege, and someone told him. Suddenly, his eyes were split, and his hateful gaze shot at the three of them. In particular, the shopkeeper surnamed Wang, who is his distant uncle, has followed his father in business for many years, and has been helping his Wang family run a grocery store by the south gate of the city, and he wants to betray their Wang family for some reason.

Shopkeeper Wang may feel guilty, got up and made a gesture to Lin Qirong in the hall first, and then turned to Wang Debang, and said, "Young master, no wonder the old king is ruthless!" It was your brothers who died of their own accord! In the past, the Manchu demon soldiers bullied us and other people all day long, but fortunately, the holy army drove away the Qing demons and returned my people to buy and sell fairly and live equally. Not only for the old Wang family, but also for the other side clansmen of the Wang family. The holy army is generous and benevolent, and has agreed, and none of the side branches of the Wang family are implicated. ”

"Tired (you)!" Wang Debang just wanted to get up, but was pressed to the ground again by the holy soldiers.

"Yes, your royal brothers have done their own evil, and you can't live! Wang Debang, and you fools who are loyal to the Manchus, honestly who else participated in the rebellion, and the provincial brigade commander and good people were angry? The other two squires sitting upright looked embarrassed, and they were extremely reluctant for Lin Qirong to let them sit on the side of the lobby.

But due to the situation, I had to do it. It's just that in this way, their identities are revealed, and they can only be tied to the Taiping Holy Army. Therefore, I want to pull more squires together, all of them defect to the Taiping Holy Army, and the thief ship on their waists will be on the board. Even if the government calls back, the law will not be responsible, and everyone will find a way together.

Lin Qirong saw that the squires in the hall were silent, his face sank, he was shocked, and asked: "In this case, they are all imprisoned, and the crime of rebellion will be reported to Daozhou, and within ten days, they will all be beheaded!" Come on, bring it down! ”

"Wait! Adults, the little people are guilty! The small people are guilty! The people are willing to join the Holy Religion and dedicate half of their family's wealth to the Holy Religion. I beg your permission! A shrewd squire, in a hurry, crawled out and pleaded.

"Well, that's right. Do you have any adult children? Lin Qirong asked.

"Xiaomin has three sons, all of whom are adults! There is also an eldest grandson, who is also seventeen years old. ”

"Well, the members of the Holy Church are like brothers and sisters, and everyone is willing to dedicate themselves to the Holy Church. In that case, you may send a son to join the Holy Army to defend the Holy King. In the future, perhaps the whole family will be exempted from half of the tax, the commercial tax will be reduced by 30%, and the Holy Religion will be protected! ”

"I want to!" When the squire heard that the tax might be reduced, he hurriedly agreed. Originally, the third son of the family was making a lot of noise to join the Holy Army and drive out the Manchus, but now he has been on the thief ship, and he can only go all the way to the dark.

Seeing that Lin Qirong nodded with satisfaction, the rest of the squires in the hall shouted one after another: "Adult, the villain is also guilty!" The villain is also willing to join the Holy Religion and dedicate most of his family wealth. ”

"My lord, the villain has 5 sons, and he is willing to send 4 of them to join the Holy Army! I only ask the adults to forgive the villain and the son's previous sin of blind obedience! "This squire has a good calculation, he and his son were arrested, and they died by others, anyway, the Manchu Qing Dynasty didn't give him any benefits, it's better to simply join the Holy Sect, it doesn't mean that he can be a big man, at least for the time being, he can keep the whole family safe.

Lin Qirong saw that these squires were willing to donate their wealth and send their children and grandchildren to join the Holy Army, and finally smiled with satisfaction.

He remembered that two days before he came to Jianghua, as a pawn chief, he also participated in the night classes taught by the Holy King himself in the previous sessions. In his lecture, the Holy King did not teach everyone to read and break words, but focused on the methods of special operations, local governance, and military training.

The special operation mainly talked about how to carry out secret raids, collect intelligence, disrupt the rear, destroy grain and grass or the economy, and decapitation operations, and so on, and focused on analyzing how small units can carry out special reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, such as camouflage, digging holes, diving, high-altitude gliding, and so on, and use all environments to carry out combat methods to achieve their goals. Lin Qirong already felt that he couldn't finish learning. Like this time, he just used his intelligence advantage to know in advance that a large number of villagers were going to attack the city, and then adopted the method of ambush to successfully eradicate the hidden danger in one fell swoop.

As for governing the place, Lin Qirong didn't listen much, he preferred special operations. As for governing the locality, he only understood that it was necessary to unite and win over some people, divide a large number of people, and then lead everyone to fight against a small number of people, and he succeeded for the most part.

Therefore, after he was stationed in Jianghua County, he secretly wooed the squire surnamed Li, who was engaged in the cloth business in the city, and the squire surnamed Sun, who was engaged in the bamboo strip business, and asked them to collect intelligence for the Taiping Holy Army and pay attention to the secret movements of the squires in the city. In return, Lin Qirong took the lead, and the holy army in Jianghua County purchased cloth, bamboo utensils, etc., and bought them from their stores.

According to the lecture of the king of the south, the people were organized and mobilized to provide intelligence for the army and provide remuneration for rewards. The shopkeeper of the Wang storehouse at the south gate of the city was secretly invited to the county government for the second time to preach the policy, and was attracted by the intelligence reward policy of the Taiping Holy Army, and took the initiative to hand over the Wang brothers in Huangjiazhai in the city to have a heart of rebellion.

As soon as the two sides were confirmed, Lin Qirong concluded that Xiangyong was going to storm the city, so he designed an ambush in advance to solve the problem of Xiangyong once and for all. By the way, tidy up the squire, and you can also get a lot of money for the Holy Army.

As for the final method of military training, although the Holy King talked about the method of military training in the "Minutes of the Holy Army's Military Training", the time was relatively short, and Lin Qirong only heard that the rewards and punishments were clear, and words must be done, and deeds must be fruitful. He especially liked what the Holy King said in the night school: "Treat your brothers as warm as spring, and your enemies as cold as winter." And so it became the cold appearance it is now.

Next, Lin Qirong motioned to the knife hand outside the hall to send a basket. When the squires saw it, they couldn't help but guess, but because it was covered with a red cloth, it was unknown what it was.

"Below, on behalf of the Holy Army, Lin will reward those who have contributed to the suppression of the Jianghua rebellion!" Lin Qirong stood up, drew a cross, and muttered as if he was reciting words like the blessing of the original heavenly emperor.

Now, the squires in the hall all understood. For a while, it was full of jealousy and regret!

However, the more regrettable thing is what Lin Qirong said later.

"Now that the civil strife has been settled, in order to appease the people, let everyone present also settle down as soon as possible, stop thinking nonsense, and live and work in peace and contentment." Lin Qirong smiled rarely, and then said: "Three and a half days ago, more than 4,000 Qing demons attacked Daozhou from Yongzhou, and the main force of our Taiping Holy Army, under the planning of the Holy King, ambushed the Qing Demon in the Xiaoshui River Valley and won a complete victory. Liu Changqing, the demon leader of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, only led less than 200 people to flee in panic. Now, Daozhou and this Jianghua and Yongming are all under the rule of my Taiping Holy Army, I hope that all the villagers of Jianghua will recognize the situation, plan for themselves and their families, plan for Jianghua, and do not be crooked again, otherwise, the Wang brothers are role models! ”

What the!? The imperial court officers and soldiers who came to recover Daozhou were wiped out by the Taiping Holy Army three days ago? Even Liu Changqing fled!

Suddenly, the squires who still had a little illusion in the hall and hoped that the imperial court would come to recover Jianghua were dumbfounded. No one knows the bitterness in his heart, and on the surface, he has to show the appearance of happily celebrating the victory of the Taiping Holy Army, and the remorse in his heart can only be swallowed quietly.

"Wang Dazhu, in view of your contribution to the Holy Army in this Jianghua rebellion, I hereby award and award you the title of 'Green Guardian of the Holy Army', and the position is equivalent to that of the two Simas. Another reward of 20 taels of silver. Lin Qirong said.

The king's shopkeeper is still in a dream. He couldn't believe it! He opened a grocery store, and in recognition of the information he provided, the Holy Army specially awarded him the title of "Green Guard of the Holy Army", although I don't know what it is, but it sounds so majestic!

You must know that the biggest official he has ever seen in his life is the county master, but that is only a sneak glance from afar! But now, the general, who is even more powerful than the county master, has personally awarded himself a position equivalent to two Simas, which is only one level lower than the total number of Zheng Liupin.

I also rewarded myself with 20 taels of silver at one time, and I used to run a grocery store for the Wang family, and at most eleven or two taels of silver a year, these 20 taels are enough for my family to live for two years! This is really a great kindness, Lao Wang can only be a good messenger of the holy army, do a good job of this "green guard of the holy army", pay attention to the big and small news inside and outside the city, and report it to the holy army.

Next, the squire surnamed Li and the squire surnamed Sun were also awarded the "Green Guard of the Holy Army" by Lin Qirong, and each was rewarded with 10 taels of silver.

Seeing the three of them around Lin Qirong with a sneer on their faces, the squires who were kneeling on the ground couldn't wait to slap the three of them in the face. That glory and face should have been theirs! It's just that I listened to Wang Debang's slander and thought that the court would call. Unexpectedly, even a villain like Wang Dazhu could stand in front of the public court and talk and laugh with the general of the Holy Army, with infinite scenery and huge awards. And he is not better than him, but he can only crawl on his knees and donate his family property to atone for his crimes. For a while, the squires who climbed on the ground all had a thought, they would cooperate more with the Holy Army in the future, and next time there was any trouble, they must report to the Holy Army as soon as possible.

Lin Qirong looked at the group of squires kneeling respectfully in the hall, and knew that these people were no longer to be afraid.

According to his thoughts, he didn't like these self-righteous and selfish landlords and businessmen at all, and directly searched all their homes and filled them into the holy treasury as before, which was simple and trouble-free.

The two landlords in the city have always bullied the people, and this time they also colluded with the Wang family to plot a counterattack on Jianghua, but they can't let them be like other squires, donate some family property and pass the customs in a hurry. It is better to behead them and the leader named Wang Debang together to show the public, so as to deter everyone.

As for the other squires, the Holy King had said in his lectures above the rank of Commander that the merchants should also be regarded as the children of the Emperor of Heaven, and if they were willing to serve the Holy Army, their interests should be protected. In addition to the heinous bullying of men and women, there are also bullies and landlords who forcibly occupy people's land, who want to criticize and parade through the streets and confiscate their family property, and other ordinary squires must guide and protect, crack down on and divide them, and let them compete with each other, so as to serve our Taiping Holy Army.

This is the scene of the county government court! However, it seems that it is really the same as what the Holy King said when he was teaching, and these squires seem to have a different attitude towards the Holy Army, how to say it, by the way, in the words of the Holy King, it seems that there is a certain surrender, and there is a sense of identity!
