Chapter 618: Staying in Yiyang
Xu Sijiu solemnly told all military and civilian officials that the "God of War" would return blood for blood and would not let the executioner go unpunished. X
The relatives of the common people were slaughtered by the rogues or officers and soldiers, as long as those who committed the murder were remembered, sooner or later the "God of War" people and horses will help everyone take revenge.
If it is an officer or soldier who commits the murder, even if they are the family members of the chief military officer, the "god of war" will stand up for the common people, and if the chief military officer does not hand over the family members of the murderer, then even the chief military officer will be killed together.
The Huang family is very arrogant, and they are all strong in their hearts, because they know that they are not fighting alone, and there are millions of soldiers and civilians in the Huang family system behind them.
The Huang family believes that if they really provoke the head of the family, as long as they send three or five thousand private soldiers of the Huang family, no matter which bandits or officials and soldiers do evil, they are guaranteed to be wiped out.
The warning of righteous words shows the heart of the "God of War" who has pity for the disadvantaged people, and the common people are warm in their hearts when they hear it, and they feel that they have the backbone, and even Li Zhongzheng, Jin Zhixian, and a group of Yiyang County officials feel comfortable.
Xu Sijiu and they liquidated the crimes of the rogue with bloody actions, so that all the soldiers, civilians, and officials knew that they could not be thieves.
If you are worried that you can't get by, you can follow the "God of War" family to ensure that everyone has a way to live, and if you go to the south, you will be assigned good land to cultivate, and life will get better day by day.
Many ordinary people packed up their tattered belongings and prepared to follow the Huang family south, they were still very weak, but their eyes were already revealing a yearning for the future.
Jin Zhixian has also been busy with Xu Sijiu and them in the past few days, and he is becoming more and more powerful in Yiyang County at this time, and the military and civilian officials all think that the county has saved everyone and respect him.
Tens of thousands of people gathered to gather and needed too much food, Yiyang was difficult to supply, and it was not a place to stay for a long time, Guo Sanxi and others were ready to escort the people to evacuate.
The combat effectiveness of the "God of War" family has convinced all the soldiers, civilians, and officials here.
The Huang family gave all the refugees three meals a day, giving hope to the people who had lost their homes and food.
In the ranks of the homeless people who are desperately short of food, a black cake can be exchanged for a girl's first night, and the competition for a cooking cake will lead to bloodshed, resulting in the death of many people, and the value of food can no longer be calculated by a few taels of silver in one stone.
The Huang family made a big show to let tens of thousands of people eat three meals, and the money paid should be astronomical, and the people saw it with their own eyes, of course, everyone believed in the sincerity of the "God of War" to take them in.
On the fifth day, Guo Sanxi and Xu Sijiu bid farewell to Li Zhongzheng and the officials of Yiyang and prepared to return to the east, and even snatched out 15,000 coerced ordinary people from the hands of the Liukou, and the population of the team reached 35,000, totaling seven or eight thousand households.
This is because the news of the release of porridge outside Yiyang County has spread, and many ordinary people from all over the country who have escaped the war have gathered here.
There are also many people in the city who fled to take refuge in the city, their homes were destroyed and they could not survive, and they also chose to leave their hometowns and join the king of Qiongya County.
The news that the imperial court had sent envoys to canonize the prince of Qiongya County, the prince of Nanguo, was told by Li Zhongzheng, an official in the township and Beijing, to Xu Sijiu and Guo Sanxi.
Although it was expected, the Huang family's private soldiers were still excited, and even those who had just joined were honored.
Yiyang City almost fell into the hands of thieves, the soldiers and civilians, and the officials had lingering palpitations, and the common people could choose to leave their hometowns and follow the "God of War", but the officials could not do this.
The law of the Ming Dynasty, the city where every official is located is the land they must defend, even if they have no combat effectiveness, they are not allowed to escape.
In the original history, Gao Di, who had served as the governor of Liaodong, had returned to his hometown Luanzhou in leisure.
His luck was too bad, when he was in turmoil, the Houjin army attacked Luanzhou, Gao Di's integrity was far inferior to Sun Chengzong's family and escaped, and later the court settled accounts and arrested Gao Di in prison, almost took his old life, and his career was naturally cut off.
Li Zhongzheng had already decided to take his immediate family members to Beijing to resume his duties, and this reason for leaving the dangerous place was beyond reproach, and he called on his clansmen to follow Xu Sijiu and them to move south.
Chang Xingshen also saw the danger of the Liukou attacking the city, and took the initiative to ask to follow the Huang family, but Jin Zhixian could not get out, he followed Guo Sanxi to fight, and saw the bravery under the command of the "God of War" with his own eyes, and asked Guo Sanxi to stay in Yiyang to serve.
The fate of Jin Zhixian changed, and the criminal officer who abandoned the city and fled finally ended up in a different place and became a capable minister who defended the land, but he was sober-minded, if he couldn't leave Henan, where the war was everywhere, he couldn't escape the fifteenth day of the first day.
How can we keep our official positions if we want to save our lives? Only with a strong army. There is the world-famous "God of War" family in front of him, and of course he can't miss it.
Jin Zhixian proposed that he would ask the imperial court to appoint Guo Sanxi as the garrison of Yiyang County with military merits, and said that he would definitely try his best to raise money and food to support the soldiers, and he even took out his private property of 5,000 taels of silver as the early military salary for recruiting soldiers and asked Guo Sanxi to stay.
It seems that this civil official has seen a lot and knows that sacrificing his wealth to save his life is the best policy. Jin Zhixian was full of confidence and believed that as long as Yiyang County was willing to contribute money and grain, the imperial court would definitely approve the establishment of a garrison regiment for training.
Due to the situation of the displaced people, the imperial court advocated that the state capitals should train the township, and the invitation of Jinzhi County was in line with the general trend.
Later, in the tenth and twelfth years of Chongzhen, in addition to the increase in Liao's salary, the imperial court also increased the salary and training salary. As a result, the burden on the common people has increased a lot, and it has led to the bankruptcy of yeoman farmers.
Although Li Zhongzheng decided to go to Beijing, there were too many fathers and elders in Yiyang City who were unwilling to leave their hometowns, and he also tried his best to keep Guo Sanxi, and said that he would do his best to promote Guo Sanxi to become a military attache from the fourth rank.
This time, more than 3,000 rogues were killed in Yiyang City, and one of the big bandit leaders with a surname was punished by the Ming Dynasty, and Li Zhongzheng and Jin Zhixian jointly promoted Guo Sanxi, a military attache of the fifth grade, to become a local garrison.
The imperial court will be happy to see this, these local armies are completely local food and salary, the court does not need to pay money, and when there is a shortage of soldiers and horses, it can also order the local army to assist the battalion soldiers to suppress the cowards.
After discussing with Guo Sanxi, Zhu Guobing and more than a dozen other officers, Xu Sijiu decided to leave 100 people in Yiyang to train Xiangyong.
According to their analysis, the common people of Yiyang, who almost suffered a catastrophe, must have understood the truth that only by force can they protect themselves, and training their combat skills will definitely not encounter resistance, and the Huang family will transport food and equipment here again.
Everyone is not afraid of hard work and is willing to accept training, and Guo Sanxi, who has become a garrison military attache in time, should have no problem training one or two thousand men and horses who dare to fight.
With Yiyang as a base, there are displaced people who can widely collect dozens of miles of people in the vicinity, because this area is almost destroyed by the rogues, and there should be too many people who have received the news to come to Yiyang County to defect.
