Li Ran finally led more than 450 people back to Tongren Mansion, this scene shocked Wang Jie's father and son, and they were even more stunned when they heard that Li Ran had killed and wounded nearly 6,000 enemy soldiers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Wang Jie laughed even more, "Commander Li, no matter what the outcome of the battle is this time, you are the first to take the lead, and you have successfully defeated the morale of the enemy in this battle." Captain Li has worked hard. ”
Li Ran said, "Commander Wang said seriously, we are all working for the commander and working hard for the prosperity and strength of the Chinese nation, not to mention hard work, as long as we can do our part for the nation, we will never take half a step back." ”
Wang Rui nodded, he understood that in the group of Zhenwu Army, Li Ran was definitely a general who could take charge alone.
Li Ran's gaze was cast into the distance, and he knew that for them, the real big war was coming.
As early as June 15, Li Jingshu, the son of Li Hongzhang, had entered Guizhou.
When he first entered Guizhou, Li Jingshu didn't feel any difference, but as he continued to go deeper into Guizhou. Li Jingshu found a problem.
The common people of Guizhou are obviously different from other places, and they have a lot of trust in the government and soldiers in Guizhou. There are even more ordinary people who take the initiative to send food and meat to the soldiers, but what Li Jingshu didn't expect was that the soldiers would refrain in every possible way at the same time, and they really couldn't refuse, and they would give the corresponding tung board.
This scene was so shocked that Li Jingshu's jaw was about to fall, if it was placed elsewhere, I am afraid that as long as the soldiers look at the meat and food in the farmers' homes, I am afraid that they will rob it.
Such a scene happened in many places, which made Li Jingshu even more incomprehensible. Li Jingshu immediately recorded this scene and sent a personal entourage to rush to the capital with his own handwritten letter.
Li Jingshu entered a county town and found that almost everyone was smiling, and there were several small factories in the city, which were not found in ordinary county seats.
Li Jingshu looked at an uncle sitting on the side of the road and decided to step forward to ask for advice.
Li Jingshu looked at the old man who was over the age of six, sat on top of an old tree stump with a smile, and teased his grandson, "Old man, can I ask you something?" ”
The old man immediately said enthusiastically, "Young man, of course you can, anyway, the old man, I am idle, I am idle, I can chat with you, a young man, if there is anything you want to ask, just ask, the old man must know everything." ”
Li Jingshu immediately tidied up his clothes and sat down immediately, he just wanted to know urgently how Guizhou became like this, as for the rest, he would not consider it. Several of Li Jingshu's entourage stared around warily.
Li Jingshu immediately asked his own question, "How can you people in Guizhou have such a good relationship with the officers and soldiers of the government?" ”
The old man immediately looked at him with a triumphant posture, "At first glance, you are an outsider, the new governor Li Zhongju is not ordinarily good for us lower-class people, and the taxes are also levied less, and a lot of factories have been established, like the old man, two of my three sons all work in factories, and both of them have hundreds of wages per month." ”
The old man continued, "The Governor has issued a strict decree that the common people can report the irresponsible behavior of officials and oppress the common people. Officers and soldiers are not allowed to take a grain or a dish from the people, but the officers and soldiers have nearly one tael of money every month, and I heard that there are other allowances for those who serve as soldiers. ”
Li Jingshu understood that Li Zhongju should have come to a great purge in Guizhou, and at the same time improve the salaries and treatment of officials and soldiers.
Li Jingshu asked again, "I heard that Guizhou trusts the governor, and it was Li Zhongju who led it himself, and the army of the imperial court is about to come, aren't you worried?" ”
The old man shook his head, "The army of the Qing court, so what, we only recognize Lord Li Zhongju, and we all believe that Lord Governor can defeat the enemy army." At that time, I don't know how many people in Guizhou will help adults. ”
Li Jingshu asked the old man a few more questions, and the old man answered them all to Li Jingshu's surprise, and Li Jingshu knew that perhaps Li Zhongju was the most popular person in the past thousand years.
Li Jingshu's mood was a little heavy, in fact, he also knew that the decline of the Qing court in recent years was not without reason, and even now the Chinese nation cannot catch up with the pace of the world.
Li Jingshu found an inn in the city to stay, and found that even if it was an inn, the service was far better than other places, how could this be possible?
In fact, what Li Jingshu didn't know was that Li Zhongju ordered an all-out effort to rebuild Guizhou a few months ago, and made certain regulations on pharmacies, pawnshops, inns, and restaurants in various prefectures and counties. These public or private shops are required to have good service.
Li Jingshu immediately sat down at his desk and wrote an article about what he had seen and heard today, preparing to send it to his father tomorrow.
A few days later, Li Jingshu saw the Zhenwu army in Guizhou go on an expedition, and they did not commit any mistakes along the way, without passing through the people's fertile fields, even if they did not hesitate to go some more roads because of this. There is really no way, and the passing of the army will also compensate the people for twice the income.
What surprised Li Jingshu the most was that the people of various provinces in Guizhou actually helped the army to transport grain and grass, and it was spontaneous. This is absolutely impossible to encounter in other provinces, not even in Jingshi.
is really a family of officials and people, Li Jingshu finally knows the greatness of Li Zhongju, and he can build Guizhou into the current status quo in just a few months, which shows how strong Li Zhongju's personality charm is.
Li Jing said a lot, Li Zhongju's personality charm is indeed extremely powerful, and it is precisely because of this that Li Zhongju can gather a group of loyal and patriotic fellow Chinese people, and people who sincerely work hard for the prosperity and strength of the Chinese nation.
Li Jingshu decided to go and see Li Zhongju, the legendary figure in Guizhou, in person, and he had to go to see Li Zhongju, otherwise he would be uneasy in his heart.
Li Jingshu immediately prepared to go south to find Li Zhongju.
Zhang Zhidong led the army to Qingyuan Mansion, to be honest, Zhang Zhidong had a headache, and he didn't know how to face Li Zhongju, but he still had the confidence to defeat Li Zhongju.
After all, Zhang Zhidong, who can be called one of the "Four Great Ministers of the Late Qing Dynasty" by later generations, is still very powerful, but this is only relative. He hadn't really seen Li Zhongju's strength, otherwise he would never have thought like this.
Zhang Zhidong knew that Li Zhongju was deeply popular with the people, but he just didn't want to kill a person who really won the hearts of the people, not that he didn't want to be an enemy of Li Zhongju.
Who doesn't want to be famous, Zhang Zhidong is a contradictory person, and at the same time she wants to defeat and recover Guizhou, leaving a heavy mark in history.
Zhang Zhidong sat in the Zhizhou Mansion in Qingyuan Mansion City, thinking about what to do next, whether to recruit Li Zhongju.
Kindness?
Not bad!
That's it!
Right! Surrender Li Zhongju.
Zhang Zhidong stood up in an instant and walked back and forth in the room, thinking about how to successfully recruit Li Zhongju.
