On the twelfth day of the first month of the year of Chongzhen, Zhang Zhun returned to Fushan City

At this time, Fushan City was already a scene of mountain rain coming and the wind was full of buildings, and the edict of the imperial court had been sent to various places, and the people of Fushan City naturally knew that for this edict, the people in the jurisdiction of Aoshan Wei did not have the slightest good feeling, and they originally agreed that Zhang Zhun was a thief, and this edict of the imperial court was just to officially determine Zhang Zhun's identity as an anti-thief, and it was purely a matter of taking off his pants and farting, which was too much

However, in Lingshanwei, many people are talking about this matter, the biggest difference between the people of Lingshanwei and the people of Aoshanwei is that they still lack enough courage to fight for more rights and interests for themselves

"Master, in the past few days after you left, several old people have come," Ji Yuqing said euphemistically to Zhang Zhun

"Well, I see" Zhang Zhun nodded and said indifferently

This edict of the imperial court announced to the world, Yang Kaide, Chen Guoxi, Mao Shunjiang of Fushan City, Huang Qingping, Meng Qinghao, Shi Zhenshan and others of Aoshan City, of course, couldn't sit still, and came to Ziyuan one after another, wanting to ask Zhang Zhun what to do These old people all followed Zhang Zhun to embark on this difficult road, Zhang Zhun was not on his own territory, and they always felt unsteady

Zhang Zhun immediately summoned all the Shengxia Sect

The backbone of the meeting

Except for Zhou Zhengyu, Fang He, Liu Dong and others who stayed behind in Yuzhou Mountain, the other backbones of the Shengxia Sect were all here

After almost half a year of development, the members of the Shengxia Sect have increased from more than 30 people to about 200 now, of which there are more than 50 backbones, including all walks of life, and most of them are the backbone of the army

"Mo Yu, explain the content of the edict from beginning to end"

At the meeting, Zhang Zhun said calmly

"Understood!"

Mo Yu immediately explained in the vernacular according to the content of the edict

In fact, there is not much difficulty in interpreting the edict, but it is necessary for Zhang Zhun to interpret it according to his own meaning, what does Zhang Zhun mean? Of course, the imperial court wants to kill everything, and if we all have no way to retreat and want to survive, we can only show greater strength and fight with the imperial court in the end, if anyone defects halfway, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat

After listening to Mo Yu's interpretation, all the backbones of the Shengxia Sect below had solemn faces, and the edict was drawn up by the emperor, and there was no possibility of changing it, in other words, Zhang Zhun's identity as an anti-thief was to sit on Zhang Zhun's anti-thief seat, and those of them who followed Zhang Zhun naturally also sat on the edict as an anti-thief, that is, the Qin prisoner of the imperial court was good, at that time, the title of the Qin prisoner was still relatively stressful for a while, and everyone was silent

Zhang Zhun looked at everyone, his eyes were shining, his face was cold, and he said calmly: "I believe that when you followed me to do things before,

I already know what I'm going to do, so now, I won't explain too much, and now I want to emphasize that there is nothing terrible in the imperial court, what can a garbage edict do? The imperial court's army in Shandong, we are not afraid at all! Come a thousand kill a thousand, come ten thousand kill ten thousand! ”

"What we have to do now is to get more out of our minds, produce more food, produce more weapons, produce more warships, and arm more troops! As long as we have land, money, food, weapons, and soldiers, what are we worried about? The imperial court has Tartars in the northeast, and the rebel army in Shaanxi in the Central Plains, these two fires have not been extinguished by the imperial court, how many people can be sent to deal with us? So, there is no need to panic at all! On the contrary, now is our chance to go on the offensive in a big way! ”

"We've been on Aoshanwei's turf long enough! Now, we're going to take the initiative! My first step is to completely occupy the entire Laizhou capital! Didn't the court say that we were thieves? We're going to have to look like thieves! If you don't even have a place, you will be worthy of the title of this anti-thief! So, now, I declare that we will march to Laizhou at once! ”

Mao Shunjiang shouted excitedly: "My lord, no matter what happens outside, in short, we will follow you."

Chen Guoxi and the others all shouted, "That's right, we'll follow the adults!" ”

Those backbones from the army system shouted even louder: "March to Laizhou Mansion!" ”

Only Wang Mingyu, Liu Hang, Liu Baoyu, Yang Liren, and Hou Shanping are among them

The backbone of the government is quite worried, they are not in favor of marching to Laizhou Mansion, but they are a little worried that after taking Laizhou Mansion, the strength in their hands is not enough to govern the huge Laizhou Mansion, you must know that under the rule of Laizhou Mansion, there are five counties such as Ye County, Changyi, Weixian, Gaomi, Jimo, as well as Jiaozhou and Pingzhou, five counties and two prefectures, with a total population of more than 100,000!

Figuratively speaking, Aoshanwei and Lingshanwei, in fact, are the territory of the two counties Now, Zhang Zhun wants to expand his territory to more than nine counties in one breath, and the difficulty of governance is really a bit of a big defect, of course, Zhang Zhun and they are both from the military, there are not many literate people around to fight, there is no problem if you are illiterate, and it is no problem to follow the chief to rush up to cut off people's heads, and you need to be literate.

Zhang Zhun waved his hand calmly, let everyone calm down, and said slowly: "Now, I announce a few orders, I hope you will help implement them"

The first order, of course, unifies the mind

Every member of the Shengxia Sect must play the role of the mainstay, firmly guide the main ideological trend The imperial court's edict arrived at this time, in fact, it was a good thing The edict announced Zhang Zhun's identity to the whole world, yes, Zhang Zhun's current identity is that the thief is willing to follow Zhang Zhun to do it, continue to follow the one who is unwilling to follow Zhang Zhun to do it, and find another way out In front of the edict, there is no longer the possibility of grass on the wall

Second Order

, is an official announcement, and the Shaanxi rebel army

Since they are all rebels, of course it is necessary to unite and deal with the imperial court together No matter what happens in the future, now it is the old saying that you must stand on the same front, and you are willing to take the emperor off the horse and dare to pull the emperor off the horse, what the rebel army has to do, this is the kind of thing However, Zhang Zhun did not declare himself to be the thirty-seventh battalion of the rebel army, nor did he accept the nickname "Jade Jiaolong", and the two sides can form an alliance strategically, but in actual action, the two sides have almost no intersection

The third order, of course, is to expand the armament war

The butcher's knife of the imperial court has been raised, and of course the Tiger Ben Army cannot show weakness, therefore, Zhang Zhun announced that the original martial arts team, guerrillas, and soldiers of the recruit training camp will all be supplemented into the Tiger Ben Army, and the three assistant commanders of the first, ninth, and tenth associations will be Peng Bo, Zou Mingjia, and Zhang Lingyun, respectively, and the strength of each association is still 250 soldiers, not counting officers

After further expansion, the Huben Army Army has a total of 10 associations, about 3,000 troops, Zhang Zhun's basic strategic deployment is to deploy one association in each county, and the other associations are the campaign reserves, in addition, the artillery associations have also expanded from the original two squads to five squads, a total of 250 soldiers, the number of flying dragon artillery, increased to 25 artillery associations, which are also campaign reserves, assisting the main force of the Huben Army

"Since it's a thief!"

"Then we will rebel to the end!"

"We're going to march all over Laizhou at once!"

sheet

Quasi-said calmly

The war machine of the Tiger Ben Army is running rapidly

All combat units are assembled in the vicinity of Jimo and Jiaozhou, ready to set off at any time

For a time, Jimo, Jiaozhou and other places were all rumored, and the local big families fled one after another, everyone knew that Zhang Zhun was going to make a big move, this time, it was definitely not scary, if Zhang Zhun came, they would definitely have no good fruit to eat, especially the edict had made clear the identity of Zhang Zhun as a thief, Zhang Zhun broke the jar and fell, and he must be killed

On the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, Ma Yi hurriedly came to Zhang Zhun, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and reported: "My lord, these are the preliminary lists we have sorted out."

Brigadier Zhang took over the list and praised it: "Good! Well done! Great work! ”

For Zhang Zhun, it is not difficult to occupy Laizhou Mansion militarily, and the difficult problem is how to effectively control it after the military occupation, and the key to land reform is the key to winning the support of the vast majority of poor peasants, and land reform is definitely a big killer move, and it has been tried and tested repeatedly on Chinese soil, and historical facts have also been repeatedly proven

The problem now is that the counties of Laizhou Prefecture are five counties and two prefectures with different structures from Aoshanwei and Lingshanwei, and most of the people living in Laizhou Prefecture are private households, and the composition of their fields is completely different from that of Aoshanwei, and the local social conditions are relatively complex

These are complex problems that cannot be resolved by force alone

In addition, the treatment of landlords cannot be one-size-fits-all, the local landlords and gentry, some of them are relatively enlightened, and the officers of the guard are not the same as these people, we must try to fight for them, instead of pushing them to the enemy's side to win them over, and their own strength will increase by one point, and push them to the enemy's side, and the enemy's strength will increase by one point, so indiscriminate massacres will not work here

Zhang Zhun from later generations knew very well that at any time, the gentry collective was the elite of a country, perhaps the people of later generations mentioned the word elite, and there were some contemptuous eyes, but at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the word elite was still a compliment, and the gentry collective at that time included all the cultural people to govern the country, and it was definitely not possible to govern the country without the support of this group of people

Li Zicheng's failure is that he accidentally pushed this group to his opposite, if Li Zicheng implemented the strategy of winning over a group of gentry groups, neutralizing a group, and slaughtering a group, he must have been able to gain a firm foothold, after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, isn't this the strategy he implemented? Those who dared to resist were killed and all those who surrendered were reused

Zhang Zhun raised the slogan of rebellion very loudly, and he also attached great importance to the interests of the peasants, in fact, he also knew that there was no problem at all in pulling a group of military households to kill people and fight.

But if you want to govern a region, or even a country, you can't do it, governing Aoshanwei and Lingshanwei is already the limit of Wang Mingyu, Liu Hang and others, if you want to expand further, you must get the support of the gentry group, otherwise, there will only be destruction, no construction

You don't need any culture to fight a war and kill people, you don't need to go up and cut it, it's a completely different way to govern internal affairs, but it's completely different from a cultured person, it's absolutely not good to govern and fight, it's completely different from people who come after the world often say that Li Zicheng is a rogue, Huang Chao is a rogue, and they don't want to build a base area, they just want to destroy, in fact, they really don't want to? It's not that I don't want to, I can't do it! Without cultured people with you, how can you build a base area?

Zhang Zhun doesn't want to be Li Zicheng, if you want to build a strong base area, you have to appoint officials and maintain the effective operation of the local government However, in his hands, there are not so many talents, especially literate talents, Zhang Zhun is not very demanding, but you must at least be literate? To be able to write the most basic list announcements and the like? The above meaning must be carried out, and it is not enough to rely on lip service

In fact, the number of cultural people that Zhang Zhun needs is not particularly large, a hundred or so is enough, Laizhou Mansion needs a batch, about thirty or so, five counties and two prefectures, each needs about ten people, considering that there may be some old officials who take refuge in themselves, this number can also be discounted, but no matter how discounted, dozens of people still want it

Therefore, Zhang Zhun had to find some useful personnel from all over the country, and they had to have a certain amount

talent, and it is possible to do things for the Tiger Benjun to be honest, such a person is not easy to find I heard that Zhang Zhun is coming, basically all the cultural people have run away, there is no way, Zhang Zhun had to let Ma Yi's Intelligence Department, through various channels, look for a list of personnel, when the time comes, the Tiger Benjun has a target, according to the name of the arrest Well, it is wrong, it is to invite people, fully armed "please" to come, and then entrust it with a heavy task

These lists handed over by Ma Yi are the list of some people who meet Zhang Zhun's requirements, well, maybe this list should be called a blacklist, because these people on the list, if they don't run away in time before the arrival of the Tiger Army, they will all fall into the net of the Tiger Army

Liu Guangxin, Tian Feng, Lei Yuan, Pu Rongsheng, Chen Lieshu, Wang Donghua, Xu Xinyu, ......"

Zhang Zhun carefully reviewed the list one by one
