Chapter 91: Reaction

"What is this?" Yan Guang was a little strange and took this piece of paper, which read...

“……… After disbanding itself, the Baolu Army now has only 50,000 or 60,000 strong men and horses, and it is heading in the direction of Yucheng..."

"Yucheng..."Yan Guang frowned. Are those guys going to Chongqing? ”

"That's right." Song Dinghan nodded. "Obviously, those guys also know that if they continue to stay in Rong County, then there will be only one end in the end, so they chose to abandon Rong County's strategy and move towards Yucheng..."

When the Sichuan New Army was incorporated, a team of cavalry was left near Rong County, and this cavalry was specially responsible for monitoring the Rong County Road Protection Army. Therefore, after discovering that the Baolu Army had scattered many teams and was marching in the direction of Yucheng, after inquiring about the reasons for the disbandment of the Baolu Army, the cavalry team galloped back to Chengdu.

In fact, this cavalry team happened to be Yan Guang's return when they had just left the city.

"They also have smart people..."Yan Guang touched the stubble on his chin. Yucheng is the second most important city in Sichuan after Chengdu, and if they can take Yucheng, then at least they will have the strength to compete with us. ”

"That's right, and boss, although no one knows where you are from, but many people know that you are not from Sichuan, and it will be very troublesome if the people of the Baolu Army make a fuss about this..."

"So I need to introduce some policies to gather the hearts and minds of the people, so that it is no longer important that I am not from Sichuan, at least not so important?"

"That's right!" Song Dinghan nodded. "If this weren't the case, even if the boss had a lot of money, I wouldn't approve of this move of giving up millions of income, but since they had already done it first, the only way now could only be like this..."

"There's no way, the plan can never catch up with the change!" Yan Guang said with a smile. "Anyway, as long as this policy is introduced, unless the people of the Baolu Army dare to be cheeky and say that my money is hard-earned from the hands of the Sichuan people, let me hand over all the family property, and then leave the position of the governor and get out of Sichuan..."

"Let the one surnamed Yan hand over the hard-earned money he earned from the Sichuan people, and then leave the position of the governor out of Sichuan, our Sichuan governor must not let a guy who is not from another province do it!" Two days later, in Yucheng, after the Baolu Army and the Yucheng Alliance, which had just completed the liberation of Yucheng, got the news, an elder of the Baolu Army shouted from the upper echelons.

Just two days ago, the Sichuan military administration in Chengdu issued a policy of exempting all landed peasants from agricultural taxes, and announced that as long as the landlords and large households in Sichuan were willing to reduce the tenants' rents to 30 percent, they would be exempted from agricultural taxes.

Naturally, the policies introduced by the Sichuan military and political axes made many revolutionaries rejoice, because they believed that this was the real revolution. For example, after being released from prison by Yan Guang, Deng Xiaoke, the editor-in-chief of the "Shu Daily," who returned to the newspaper office to continue to serve as editor, cheered for this policy on the "Shu Daily."

The news was also published in newspapers such as the Shanghai Declaration, and it can be said that the introduction of this policy attracted the attention of almost all of China, and it attracted even more attention than the war in Wuhan.

At the same time, it was precisely because of this policy that Yan Guang, a businessman who did not belong to the League or the Restoration Society, and even belonged to the Constitutionalists, was recognized as a revolutionary for the first time.

Of course, some people will be curious about where Yan Guang got the money after the agricultural tax was exempted, although in the early stage of the revolution it was not to the point where the revolution was above everything else in the later period, but even so, the financial expenditure in the ordinary world was a very heavy burden, although the income from agricultural tax was not very much, but more than 6 million yuan a year was not very little, if such an income was missing...

However, every now and then, someone will be reminded of it. "Don't forget, this Chinese once discovered the highest yield oil field in Mexico, and perhaps he got more benefits there than ordinary people imagined..."

Hearing the clamor of the leader of the Brotherhood, except for a few people who were also from the Brotherhood, the rest of the members of the Alliance, including several other leaders of the Brotherhood, only frowned.

"What is hard-earned money, and can't you use your brain? The factory surnamed Yan can only earn more than a million silver dollars a year, and how much is the agricultural tax in Sichuan in a year? At least six million, so did you conjure up the remaining five million? Zhang Dasan, who was already a little angry because of this incident, immediately became angry after hearing the voice of his subordinates.

"That's right, there is also the road that has been built for a third of the time, which is definitely not something that a factory that only earns a million silver dollars a year can afford, and the person surnamed Yan must have other sources of income." Wang Tianjie also nodded on the side.

At this time, sitting next to his left hand, Zhang Peijue, who was already the governor of the military and political axes of Yucheng, frowned and said. "Now what should we do with that Yan Guang?"

Although the Baolu Army cut all the power poles around Chengdu at the beginning, because Yucheng has always been in the hands of the Qing political axe, it has not been interrupted in terms of external communications, which also allows them to know about this matter at the first time.

"If it was a few days earlier, maybe we could have started with the identity that he was not from Sichuan, but now..."

After arriving in Yucheng, Wang Tianjie and the others had discussed with Zhang Peijue and others, and felt that if they wanted to deal with Yan Guang, it was best to start with his own identity.

As Song Dinghan said at the beginning, although no one knows what Yan Guang is, many people know that he is not from Sichuan, as long as he can start from this point...

Anything else may not be, but it is still very possible to drive Yan Guang from the position of governor.

But for now...

"What's going on now? Can't you say it now? It was the clamoring elder who spoke just now, but this time the people of the alliance only glanced at him faintly, and finally a fellow leader of the elder council replied with a wry smile.

"Of course, we can disclose his identity now, but in this case, I'm afraid there won't be so many Sichuan people who oppose him, and even if we can really kick him out of Sichuan, what about the tax exemption policy he announced? Do we do it or not? The leader of the Brotherhood shook his head and smiled bitterly. If we do, where will the money come from? If we don't implement it, then more than 50 million people in Sichuan will tear us apart."
