The most important achievement of Zhu Cihong's whip law is to change the physical levy to silver and then change it back, Chen Zilong only had these two words when he heard it at first.

However, fortunately, he is very clear about the important surname of "agriculture-oriented" and grain production, and there is no doubt about this important surname, and there is no need to say more.

Although he was ignorant at the moment, he still nodded again and again, indicating that he understood.

Seeing him like this, Zhu Cihong smiled, but he didn't say much to this subordinate, and after a slight gesture, the entourage behind him naturally stepped forward and ordered Chen Zilong to retreat.

After Chen Zilong retreated, Zhu Cihong took a deep breath and felt a little lighter.

To be honest, he really doesn't have much of a grasp of dealing with the Jiangnan gentry group!

Militarily, the military group dominated by the Manchurian aristocracy cannot be said to win, after all, the other side is a new military and political integration of the emerging group, although the number is not large, but the war experience is very rich, these decades, and it is repeated victories, developed the Ming army and the people of the Ming Dynasty to the East of the fear of a deep fear of the heart. In the opposing camp, there are a large number of experienced commanders and elite veterans, and in terms of equipment, they are also very sophisticated, and this military group is a fierce enemy.

But if the Ming Dynasty can use the current situation to integrate forces for his use, in fact, Zhu Cihong feels that the military grasp is greater.

Internally, the Donglin Party is the fierce enemy that makes him really jealous.

The opponent was a new type of gentry group created by the influx of silver, who controlled the economic lifeline, education, public opinion, local government were also in their hands, and they also had a large amount of land resources and manpower in their hands, and their strength was terrifying.

After the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, they used absolute military means to mercilessly slaughter these people with butcher knives. The massacre in the area south of the Yangtze River, the gentry and the common people were not distinguished, about 10,000 Donglin Party and Fushe people were killed by the Manchus, and a large number of big officials and gentry landlords went bankrupt and were killed.

At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, it was announced that taxes would be reduced and exempted, and the tax would be levied according to the quota during the Wanli period. In fact, taxes are still levied on Jiangnan according to the standard of three salaries, and the income of each banknote has increased dozens of times, which is to rely on Jiangnan Yiye, which not only ensures the operation of the Yanjing Imperial Court, but also relies on Jiangnan for the entire decades of southern and northern wars.

What could not be done in the Ming Dynasty could be easily succeeded in the Qing Dynasty, where did the one who did it come from?

One is a dynasty that is restricted, isolated, and held hostage and constantly in internal friction, and the other is a highly barbaric and [***] emerging regime that is highly barbaric and [***] for the Han people, they are even forced to restructure, what else can't be done?

Zhu Cihong's difficulty lies in the fact that the entire official gentry is under his system, can he also learn from the Manchus to wield a butcher's knife against his own people? So how will the people of the world regard it?

What will his army, his bureaucrats, his father, his mother, and his ministers look up to?

I'm afraid that the opponent may not be destroyed, and I will cross the stage first!

To deal with this internal tumor, we can only slowly try to destroy its roots.

The current silver standard system of the Ming Dynasty is a place that can be found.

Since the opening of the sea in Longwan, there has been a large influx of silver, prices in China have also skyrocketed, a large number of materials have been shipped overseas, and a large number of precious metals have poured into China.

The gentry divided the gold and silver, and the people only got inflation, and the imperial court could not control the production and circulation of silver at all, and there was no income from industrial and commercial taxes.

What are the benefits of such trade dividends and prosperous industry and commerce to the country?

All the silver is not the currency under the control of the political axe, the imperial court has nothing to control, nothing to use, and even the interest of the coinage is impossible to talk about, and because of trade, a large number of grain fields have been converted into mulberry fields and cotton fields, and the output of grain has been greatly reduced. plundering the already barren wealth of the northwest and northeast...... Such a cycle of evil surnames has made the Ming Dynasty lose blood all the time, and the entire dynasty is like a giant with feet of clay, which has been on the road of no return since the Wanli period.

In addition, the collection of taxes with silver has brought about the problem of fire consumption, and while it is convenient for the officials, it is very inconvenient for the people. Very simply, the loss of physical exchange plus the loss of silver casting, these losses are imposed on the people, plus the grain merchants, strict taxes and miscellaneous taxes, officials and many other additions, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, everywhere because of tax collection and disasters and rebellion, it is not surprising.

The resumption of in-kind collection, at least in the Huaiyang area, will be a method that can be tried on a trial basis!

At least, Chen Mingxia's military and political department is already in progress, and the officials in the Huaiyang area, he has already dismissed the governor of Huai'an, the governor of Caoyun and other important civil officials, and the remaining officials in the prefectures and counties are humble and light-hearted.

At the very least, in Huaiyang and other places, he must reach the point of prohibition!

............ "Your Highness, Your Highness!" ”

While Zhu Cihong was pondering, there was a commotion outside, and Liu Zhaohui, the commander of the Generalissimo's Mansion, immediately stepped forward, wanting to stop the commotion.

"Don't." Zhu Cihong smiled slightly and said, "It must be Wang Yuan, a rough man, he has always been like this, don't worry about him." ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

Liu Zhaohui is a handsome son of a family, but because he has been strictly disciplined since he was a child, his surname is calm and cautious.

Sure enough, it was Wang Yuan who strode forward, he was short, impatient to wear the general's cloak, a copper helmet on his head, a wisp of red tassels was also short on the top of the helmet, and his body was a very well-made mountain iron armor, shoulder guards, heart protection bronze mirrors, shin guards, arm guards, wrist guards, plus knee-length leather boots, a complete set of wear on the body, although the body is not high, it is also murderous, and it still looks very powerful.

At this time, he strode forward, his black round face was full of joy that was about to overflow, and when he came to Zhu Cihong, he bowed his knees according to his waist knife, and said with a big grin: "Your Highness, the ministers are courteous." ”

"Do you see Huang Zili? Look at your lap legs, you can't kneel like this...... Look at you like this, it's the good news coming, what a happy event, say the fuck quickly. ”

In front of this confidant and beloved general, Zhu Cihong was also slightly out of shape, and naturally stood cross-waisted, waiting for Wang Yuan to speak.

"Yes, go back to Your Highness!" Wang Yuan grinned and replied, "Wei Yue has led the newly recruited new army, and he has already arrived outside the barracks!" ”

"What, the new army has arrived?" Zhu Cihong was overjoyed, and turned around in place a few times at the moment, and for a while, he didn't know how to feel good!

"The new army has arrived, the new army has arrived!"

He turned around in place several times, and finally waved his arms and shouted, "Let's go, hurry up and take a look!" ”

The Military and Political Department is now quite a bit of the taste of the big housekeeper around Zhu Cihong, because Hou Fangyu asked for his own life, so Zhu Cihong transferred Zheng Yuanxun to the Military and Political Department to serve as the deputy director, this Yangzhou Jinshi Fushe League leader is really a watertight figure, he has only been by Zhu Cihong's side for a few days and has initially adapted, and has grasped a lot of things in his hands, this time he couldn't help but step forward, and said with his hands crossed: "Your Highness, I just said that the Huai'an Prefect and Shanyang County will come over, and they are waiting outside now......

"Tell them to wait a little longer." Zhu Cihong can't wait any longer, as soon as the new army arrives, it will be a new beginning, and he is here in Huai'an, and he has waited enough!

At this time, everything is false, only by pressing the hand on the army, is the fucking real.

Most of the original elite Liu Zeqing's troops, most of the generals were killed or executed, or transferred to other military towns, and almost all of the more than 1,000 troops who rebelled against the rebellion were reformed, even if there was no rebellion, they were also disrupted to the three towns under the guards, or transferred to Liu Konghe and other garrison troops.

Only all the military attaches in the original East Palace, plus a small number of Tianjin Fubiao, and the best of the sons and daughters of Xun Qi who went south from Longnan, add up, and less than 2,000 people followed him to Huai'an.

That is, with these 2,000 people as the core, he will train a strong army of more than 30,000 people within half a year!

Time is running out, and we must not delay it any longer.

His dwelling place was on a high hill, and he ran out to see the military camp to the west.

Under the sun, the young men of the brigade were hurrying forward, stepping out of a large cloud of smoke and dust.

Under the leadership of Wei Yue and other officers, it seemed that a battalion of more than 1,000 people was used as a phalanx, and dozens of phalanxes were already waiting in front of the barracks gate.

For more than half a month, in Peixian, Sizhou, Suqian, Shuyang, Shanyang, Lianshui, Haizhou, Yangzhou and other places, the list was posted to recruit new troops.

All the recruits did not have military uniforms and armor at this time, and they were also colorful, and they stood in formation, and they did not look like soldiers, and they looked at the same as the lively people around.

However, if you look closely, you can see that the spirit of these recruits is not bad, and they are almost the same tall and short.

When Zhu Cihong approached and looked carefully, he was also very satisfied with the appearance of these new army soldiers.

Pull a pair of hands out at will, it is covered with calluses, thick and powerful muscles and bones, broad shoulders, thick muscles, legs and waist, and it looks very vigorous.

Looking at the facial expression, it is also simple but not stupid, awake but not slippery. According to Zhu Cihong's standard, his eyes are not scattered, and there is no sickness and weakness, no market gas, and no yamen gas. And the complexion is rough and dark, the hands are calloused, and as for the straight and strong body, and the speech is simple and unliterate, it is better to know a few more words, that is a higher standard.

Xuzhou and Huaiyang area, since ancient times is also a place to produce elite soldiers, the famous Beifu soldiers of the Southern Dynasty, is mainly built by the Huaishang refugees, to resist the Northern Dynasty for a hundred years, but also the world's unparalleled elite!
