Chapter 352: The sky has changed

"Ask a few officials to take a door panel, carry the person back to recuperate, and you will be able to walk around in ten days and a half months."

After the young soldier finished treating the wound, he commanded loudly, then took out two pieces of white gauze and shook them open, carefully covering the wound, then clapped his hands to pack up his belongings, covered the suitcase, buckled the belt, and returned to Zhu Daolin, standing solemnly in a group of fierce guards.

The six officials used the door panel to carry away the Zhou County Order that had woken up leisurely, and all the officials and officials secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the two crying old officials also stopped howling and opened their eyes wide.

Zhu Daolin's cold voice sounded again: "My name is Zhu Daolin, the general of Fengguo, who was ordered to go north to crusade against rebellion, and take charge of the coastal defense of Fushan and Weihai. ”

"This time I didn't come to embarrass you, but to seek justice for the hundreds of officers and soldiers of the Fushan Thousand Households......

"I don't want to care about other things, as long as you write out the process of how the military land of the Fushan Thousand Households was embezzled by the gentry, and return it back with a lot of money, I won't trouble you, otherwise I will still copy your home."

"Of course, if someone still wants to resist, I don't mind cutting off a few more heads!"

"Okay, give you a day to expose the crimes of Zhou County, and no one wants to leave this place, otherwise the military law will be ruthless!"

"Zhou Jin has been an official for six years, he has committed many crimes, shocking, all the gold and silver items copied out today are placed here, and at this time tomorrow, he will be sent to the capital together with my recital and your report documents, and handed over to the emperor, if you don't want to be beheaded, write well!"

After Zhu Daolin finished speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Guo Zhongjun to lead the 100-man team of the New Army to deal with the aftermath.

Jiang Yulong, who had just entered the heavily guarded main hall of the Jiang Mansion and led his troops to the temple mountain in the south of the city, sent someone to send good news: the gold, silver and jade copied from the bottom of the nunnery Buddhist hall were equivalent to 1.8 million taels of silver, and the wheat, millet millet, soybeans, and black beans in the two warehouses of the valley manor were piled up, with a rough estimate of no less than 500,000 stones, and the specific number needs to be counted!

Zhu Daolin was overjoyed. The commanders of the battalions were immediately summoned to issue a series of orders, and a number of notices stamped with the seal of General Fengguo were quickly posted in conspicuous positions on the streets and alleys.

On the afternoon of the next day, more than 100 Jimo garrison officers and soldiers who violated the law and discipline were escorted to Fushan Kaishan to serve hard labor, and more than 440 disarmed garrison officers and soldiers were released, and all the closed city gates were opened. All the guards inside and outside the city were replaced by Zhu Daolin's new army.

Beginning the next day, notices on recruiting new recruits were posted inside and outside the major city gates, and in the towns and villages within a radius of 50 miles, and the generous treatment and sophisticated weapons and equipment of the Jiangnan New Army attracted the attention of hundreds of ordinary people, and many young people in the countryside began to rush to the cities to try their luck.

The strict military discipline displayed by the Jiangnan New Army gradually won the trust of the people of Jimo.

The new officers and men stationed in the six large and small barracks in the city returned to normal order, and the sound of the bugle sounded melodiously before dawn, and all the officers and men except the guards and men on duty marched out of the city. After running around the Jimo city wall with a circumference of nine miles, he walked out of the barracks with a shovel and broom at the end of breakfast, and cleaned the streets and alleys for three mornings, removing the garbage, animal feces, and broken bricks and tiles of thousands of wagons.

This move deeply shocked the people from all walks of life in Jimo, and what convinced the people from all walks of life in Jimo was that the Jiangnan New Army kept its promise and did not disturb the people. does not deceive people, and there is no such thing as molesting and teasing women to buy and sell. Even the men of the battalions of the New Army came out to buy and paid a lot of money for silver and copper plates.

On the evening of the fourth day, a new army of more than 6,000 people arrived, pulling dozens of artillery pieces and hundreds of carts into the camp south of the city, frightening the people of Jimo who had just settled down.

Who knew that after this army entered the barracks, there was no movement for two consecutive days, except that the number of pigs, sheep, eggs and flour purchased and slaughtered by the new army soared and tripled.

The units of the Forces nouvelles remain the same as they were the previous days. Large quantities of grain and purchased horses, mules, donkeys, and meat were continuously transported to the Fushan Qianhu in the south, and almost all the handlebars in the city were taken away by the double freight charged by the New Army, and hundreds or even thousands of households pulled out their cattle and horses, put them on carts, and rushed to the designated places of the New Army. Transported all kinds of food and materials to the Fushan Cottage Fort by the sea, as well as the big manor left by the Jiang family.

The news that the two pillars of the Jiang family were killed by the new army has already come out, and the entire Jiang family has no news of hundreds of people overnight, and all the family property has been looted by the new army, and even the chairs and stools in the shops have not been left.

Although the people of Jimo were worried, no one dared to ask about the whereabouts of the Jiang family, and most of the people secretly rejoiced, and those who originally owed the Jiang family debts were even more happy.

Several local clans were terrified, and secretly sent people to bribe Zhu Daolin with heavy money, Zhu Daolin gladly accepted it, and the comers did not refuse to do as much as possible, and solemnly promised that as long as they did not go against the new army, they would never interfere with the interests of the big clans, and buy a large amount of grain and horses from the major families, and the prices would follow the market, and they would never be fraudulent and tyrannical.

The major families breathed a sigh of relief, secretly ventilated, and jointly divided the Jiang family's fields.

Seeing that Zhu Daolin and his army did not care, the Zhou family, one of the three major local families, was even bolder, and once again sent the disciples of the family to quietly find Zhu Daolin, and bought the Jiang family's shop and the northern suburbs manor confiscated by the new army at a price of 5,000 taels of gold.

Zhu Daolin accepted the gold and generously agreed...... He knew that Shandong had a lot of gold, and Zhaoyuan, Laiyang and Pingdu on the side had always been big gold mining counties, so it was unambiguous how much he received.

In less than five days, the wealthy families and grain merchants in the city sold a large amount of cloth, grain, horse material and horses to the new army, and a large amount of wood, stone and bricks and tiles were continuously transported to Fu, benefiting most of the local merchants and workshops, creating a commercial prosperity that Jimo City had never experienced before.

In just a few days, the overall transaction volume was as high as 200,000 taels of silver, and almost all the horses, donkeys, pigs and sheep, grain, wood, bricks and tiles that could be sold within a hundred miles of Jimo City were sold.

All units of the New Army paid on arrival, never defaulted on real money, and displayed a good reputation and convincing strict military discipline.

Zhu Daolin's integrity has been unanimously praised by the local people and major families.

Old Man Zhou, the helmsman of the Zhou family, said with emotion: "General Zhu is not like me as a Ming warrior, but more like a businessman who is mercenary but can keep his promise!" ”

No matter what all walks of life say, Zhu Daolin has no time to take care of it.

The personal guards sent to the capital to present reports and hundreds of thousands of taels of silver have been gone for five days, and the scout team sent to Dengzhou to liaise with Zhu Dadian, the governor of Shandong, has also returned, and with the arrival of 6,000 soldiers of the Longtan Army, countless military affairs are waiting for Zhu Daolin to deal with.
