Chapter 359: Your Majesty the Good Emperor

When Yinchu's head was packed in a box and sent to Beijing, it was already two days later. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

After watching the classic TV series again, and listening to His Majesty the Emperor who lived for another 500 years, after a little sigh, he immediately ordered that His Majesty the former Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty be hung on the Zhengyang Gate. And it was ingeniously hung on the north side of the doorway, so that he could enjoy the Forbidden City opposite when he was idle and bored, anyway, it couldn't be broken for a while when it was freezing at minus ten degrees, and it could be regarded as a little comfort to this elder brother who had not succeeded in entering this palace even in history.

Alas, Emperor Yang was always so kind.

However, the death of Yinchu does not mean that the war in Shanxi is over, and tens of thousands of Qing troops and Russian mercenaries have taken refuge in the chaotic mountains and mountains of Taihang Mountain, Taiyue Mountain, and Luliang Mountain, so the first army and the fifth army of the Ming army can not leave in a short period of time, and they have to be responsible for Guo Hongshuang's handful. Originally, according to the plan, Yang Feng was going to gradually advance to give the Qing army a time to retreat, and then drive them into Taiyuan City step by step to gather and annihilate, but he was disrupted by Guo Hong's greed and recklessness, even if he cut off Yinchu's head, it could not make up for his guilt.

"Call me that bastard!"

Yang Feng said with a gloomy face.

As he spoke, he also carried a whip that was whipped by Singaporeans in later generations, and he was going to whip it after calling Guo Hong.

But it's just right.

Next, the Ming army happened to be dominated by bandits in the mountains, in such a season, those Qing troops and Russian mercenaries could not hold out in the mountains for too long, the weather was cold and even the beasts did not come out, and tens of thousands of people could not find food in the mountains and did not starve to death.

Then turn back to solve the fourth elder brother.

At that time, the fourth elder brother basically lost its use value, during this time, the Qing army took advantage of the favorable opportunity that the Ming army could only keep the area around Seoul because of the lack of troops, and was attacking the city in Goryeo, and the farthest had already reached the upper reaches of the Nakdong River, and the places it passed were looted, and even the common people were driven north, and at this speed, he could take away at least 150 or even 2 million people from Goryeo.

And these people are rebellious in nature, whether they are active or forced, they are all in the same boat as the Tartars.

That is to say, after the Ming army conquers the northeast, it will be dealt with according to the anti-party......

Or simply put, men are slaves, and women are slaves.

You don't need to be a prostitute.

But Goryeo maids are very popular in the Ming Dynasty, especially according to the Ming law, it is strictly forbidden to use Han people as slaves, it can be an employment relationship, pay wages to hire men and women as servants, but all people are completely equal in status, whoever dares to hurt the servant is also to eat a lawsuit, and if you kill a servant, you will also have to pay for your life, even if you sleep with a maid, as long as people sue it, it will be punished as gang treachery, so the cost of raising slaves is quite outrageous.

Unless the slave is not Han.

But even if it's not Han, there are still restrictions on the place of origin, there is no restriction on men, anyway, they are all cut eggs, and the women are currently only open to Goryeo, and there are two options for other ethnic groups in the territory directly under them, because only these two options can be entered by women and Han people who give birth to children, and others are also born slaves, so who buys a little maid and doesn't want to warm the bed!

So Gao Liwen is now the most popular choice in Daming.

"Your Majesty, what should you do with the ministries outside the Guanxi?"

Gao Huai asked.

Now the Ming army has officially come out of the fortress, yesterday the third cavalry brigade conquered Xuanhua, is attacking west along the road to Guihua City, so it is necessary to face the problem of these chaotic tribes outside the fortress.

"Don't leave those princes or anything, this is all against the party, kill if you should kill and don't be merciful, as for the ordinary people, we still have to treat each other as brothers, after all, they are now enslaved and disobedient and there are not many people, we have to help them. They endure the wind and sand drought on the grassland, and it is very hard to herd sheep, and then I have to build a railway to Beihai, they can work on the railway to atone for their sins, after all, theoretically they are all rebels, this is our leniency, leaving women to continue to herd sheep and horses, and men who are taller than the wheels must work on the railway, and I will pay them. ”

Emperor Yang said.

His style change made Gao Huai not react for a while, but after thinking about it carefully, he understood.

At this time, there is actually not much population on the Monan grassland, you must know that the main force of the Qing army is actually from those vassal kings, and Zhili alone buried more than 100,000 elites in the first battle, which are all young and middle-aged, and the only Chechen Khan who survived also gave all the elites to Yinchu, at least 40,000 of the latter's 80,000 troops were squeezed out by these princes for him, and before the war they were only a total of more than one million people, and now it can be said that the young and middle-aged are almost swept away.

But if they resist, they can still cause a lot of trouble to the Ming army.

After all, the grasslands are too vast, and if guerrilla tactics are used to constantly harass the Ming army, it will really be difficult to deal with, they are accustomed to nomadic life, and they are naturally suitable for guerrillas, so they cannot be forced to the point of desperation. And then Emperor Yang is going to build the railway from Beijing to Beihai, more than 3,000 miles of long railway construction requires a lot of labor, then let them work to atone for their sins, give them some wages, give them some hope, let them dedicate their strength to the construction of the Ming Railway.

As for the future......

The death rate in railway construction is quite high.

The Longhai Railway has not been repaired from Luoyang alone, thousands of slaves have died, almost every day have to die several, this is comparable to a war, the Jingshan Railway belongs to the easy to repair, and more than a thousand slaves died when repaired, this Beihai Railway is much more difficult to repair than the Jingshan Railway, not to mention that it is estimated that thousands of lives will be filled in this Badaling alone.

If another plague breaks out......

Oops, it's really not enough to toss this person less.

That's it, now Yang Feng is indeed very short of labor, he not only has to build the Beihai Railway, but also continue to build the Longhai Road, but also to repair the Jinghan Railway, but also to repair the Taihai Railway, but also to repair the Liangjing Railway......

In short, he has to build a bunch of railroads.

In terms of the construction conditions and medical level of this era, it can basically be said that every railroad has to be paved with corpses, the Americans built the Pacific Railroad almost with dead people, and his current conditions are far less than the United States in the 1860s, he will only die more, these years the Ming slave traders are desperately searching for slaves, Japanese people, Luzon, Malays, Javanese, whites, and even from Tianzhu began to buy, but even this still can not meet the requirements.

The slave trade, which had been largely stagnant due to price problems, even began again.

Not only the railway, including those mines, factories, and various construction sites, are also competing for slave resources, according to statistics, as of this year, there have been more than two million slaves in the Ming Dynasty, enduring various forms of oppression in various places, and then pushing the Ming Dynasty's industrialization train rumbling forward, so now some people can not kill or not! After all, this is also a good labor force! As for the women and children who stayed behind to herd the sheep and horses......

The Daming caravan that traveled north and south would take good care of them.

If we go back to the development of gold and copper mines, it is estimated that the grassland will soon be lively. Gold has always been a good thing to attract immigrants, in the future he is ready to change the Ming Dynasty from the silver standard to the gold and silver standard, and then mint dragon yuan gold coins, these years with the expansion of overseas trade silver is pouring in, and the gold of the Golden State is obviously not able to do this, it is necessary to increase the amount of gold, and both Inner and Outer Mongolia is a good place for gold panning.

Kill all the princes, and leave no one in the upper echelons.

In this way, the original tribal system was broken, so that the Ming Dynasty could directly divide the prefectures and counties on the grassland, such as Yunzhong, Wuyuan, Kaiping, these ancient place names can also be taken out again.

Send all the remaining men to the railway construction site.

In this way, you can boil the frog in warm water to solve it, if necessary, you can give them certain benefits such as wages, this is not a big deal, the wages will definitely come back in the end, they will not refuse, anyway, if you don't agree, you have to face the bayonets of the Ming army, at this time, the grassland departments have no ability to resist, they can eat and get wages and drink, what are they dissatisfied with? Send the families of those banner people in Datong over, and even take care of their spiritual life, as for the dead people who built the railway, it is not worth mentioning, and the sheep and horses are herding horses and horses are not the same as all kinds of accidents and deaths?

Then the women and children were left to continue herding the sheep and horses.

When the news of the gold mine is released, the gold diggers who rush to the gate will make them forget their troubles.

As for the reclamation of immigrants......

This is not needed at all, the first is far from population pressure, the second is that there are places to choose, Sichuan, where is the northeast not stronger than Saiwai, Yang Feng does not want to turn the grassland into fertile land and then it won't take many years, he should have a mouth full of sand when he has nothing to do with the city tower, where environmental protection is needed, of course it is okay to open a mine, but reclamation is still a province! He doesn't even support sheep herding, sheep are still the best to raise in the colonies, and it is more suitable to raise cattle and horses in the northern grasslands, although it is too early for the people in the mainland to drink assured milk, but cheese, butter, beef jerky or something is still possible, and next year after the rubber tree begins to go under the knife, leather shoes and the like should also be popularized.

In general, this is what his grassland strategy looks like.

It should be said that the style has changed greatly, after all, His Majesty the Emperor has always been accustomed to killing and killing before, and now extrajudicial mercy is already commendable, and it is estimated that the people on the grassland will be grateful for his kindness.

After all, His Majesty the Emperor is still too kind. (To be continued.) )
