There were 8,000 people in the first batch of the Three Guards who were equipped with Chongzhen's 14-style rifled guns, and Cheng Mingjiu selected all the old battalion soldiers who had participated in the Great War in Liaoxi, and these people had rich combat experience, and their mastery and use of this new weapon were also faster than those recruits.

As a result, the Korean people on both sides of the Han River watched the Ming Dynasty troops in the open field of the river beach all day long, practicing and firing guns, and sometimes even arranging guns and firing cannons. At first, some people thought that the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals would descend to earth, catching ghosts and monsters, which made people panic. Later, after a long time, people found that there was no other effect on them except the earth-shattering sound, so they were relieved.

After a few more days, even the people crowded on the river beach to watch the excitement gradually decreased.

Half a month later, in September, the mountains of Korea are full of yellow and green leaves, and the arrival of autumn means that the grain harvest is about to be harvested, and the Dongyi barbarians will also go south to fight the grass valley.

At the same time, the attentive Korean people suddenly discovered that the Ming army that had been firing guns and guns on the banks of the Han River had disappeared, and almost overnight, the military camp that had been stretching for miles disappeared. Some people tried to find some discarded things on the site of the Ming army camp, intending to supplement their families, but they all returned empty-handed.

The river beach was as clean as if there had never been a garrison, and the canvas barracks, which stretched for miles, seemed to exist only in dreams.

Yao Qisheng has been serving as the envoy of Ping'an Dao for more than half a month, and the North Korean officials below are not as difficult to restrain as they imagined. These people are either hard-working, or they are inactive people inherited from their parents' generations. There are few people who can help him sort out government affairs, but he knows that his current position is not easy to come by, and he must not allow government affairs to grow freely like weeds.

In fact, there are only two points in the so-called local government affairs, one is to govern the people, and the other is to administer officials.

However, the Korean State is different from the Ming Dynasty, and the most fundamental purpose of the Zhenju Marquis to take over the Korean State is to curb the development of the Manchu Dynasty, so no matter what kind of governance, it should be based on this.

Therefore, as long as they capture the hearts of the people, if the magistrates want to restrain them, let them taste what they regret.

Yao Qisheng's coping strategy was very simple, seeing that the autumn harvest was entering the busy agricultural season, he issued a decree in the name of the deposed envoy, exempting the people of Ping'an Dao from all forced labor that year. This first decree made the local people cheer.

Some, however, did not see the same joy. At that time, the conscription of the Korean state was not because of the urgency of the official project, but because many local gentry used the official conscription to do their own work in the name of the government.

After the promulgation of Yao Qisheng's decree, half of the gentry and even the magistrates lost their free labor, and their labor shortage could only be hired from the townships at a large price, or they could only be delayed until the farm was busy before returning to the normal level.

This fundamentally offended the local gentry, but Yao Qisheng was not afraid, because at the same time as he performed his duties, the security team of the Three Guards stationed in Ping'an Province was also stationed in the capital of Ping'an Province. If anyone dares to openly rise up and make trouble, then they can be arrested and imprisoned for the crime of rioting.

Sure enough, there were people who didn't have long eyes, taking advantage of Yao Qisheng's rush to the coastal inspection to raise troops in the capital to make a rebellion, where were they the opponents of the Three Guards. Although the men and horses stationed in the capital are nominally security forces, they are only to hide people's eyes, but in fact they are the elite of the auxiliary barracks.

How could those house slaves armed by the gentry be the elite opponents of the auxiliaries?

When Yao Qisheng heard that someone was making trouble, not only was he not worried, but he was also overjoyed.

"I don't know what reason to put these nasty local gentry in charge, and this ready-made excuse is sent to the door!"

However, Yao Qisheng did not immediately order the attack, but explained a few words to the commander of the security team who came with him with great meaning.

"Take care of the city gates, let them toss in the city for a few days, toss out all the people who should be tossed, and when the time is ripe, let's catch turtles in an urn!"

For three days, he did not want to send a single soldier to the city, and even turned a blind eye to some of the gentry's requests, such as a gentry bribing to bring some domestic slaves and friends into the city, and the commander agreed to them all.

However, it was only three days of triumph, and early on the morning of the fourth day, the security team suddenly drove up the streets of the city, blocked all the intersections, and then arrested all the leaders of the rebellion according to the map. At noon that day, Yao Qisheng entered the capital of Ping'an Province.

In this battle, he won a big victory, but he didn't expect that after that, it would lead to a series of events that even Yao Qisheng himself couldn't believe.

On the fifth day after the rebellion, Yao Qisheng suddenly received an official letter from the Manchu side, demanding that he release the captured businessmen and return the property, because they were all working for the Manchus, otherwise they would meet each other!

"This is ** naked blackmail!"

Yao Qisheng angrily scolded the Manchu Dongyu's arm for stretching too long, but in a blink of an eye, he actually laughed again. immediately replied in writing, as long as the Manchu side showed the personnel and material list, he could release the person to return the goods with this!

Yao Qisheng's bold reply made even the commander of the security team a little worried.

"Ambassador, is it inappropriate to reply like this? In case the Manchu Qing really showed the list, could it be that we have to give up a lot of supplies in vain? ”

In the view of the commander of the security force, it is okay to send people, but the big deal is to release a few wastes that waste food, but the materials and goods are not easy to come by, how can it be said that they will be sent out?

Yao Qisheng smiled mysteriously, "Don't worry, the mountain people have their own tricks!" ”

The commander of the security team was confused and full of suspicions, but he could only believe in Yao Qisheng's methods, who made Yao Qisheng's official bigger than him!

Yao Qisheng saw the worry of the commander of the security team, so he comforted him and said: "Don't worry, the person who wrote to us is just a prefect of the Manchu Dynasty. Will his court punish a crime of starting a war? You just have to watch the show, if something goes wrong, Yao will bear it! ”

Yao Qisheng said this point, and the commander of the security team was suspicious. Sure enough, on the evening of the next day, there was a reply from the Manchu Dongyu's side, during which a large number of lists were listed, but there were many errors and omissions in the personnel list, and the donkey's lips were not in the horse's mouth.

The commander of the security team complained that Yao Qisheng was talking nonsense, and now the lion is talking nonsense, and now how to reply to others?

Yao Qisheng smiled: "It's not simple, let's take a look, for example, this silk linen, has it been explained where it is produced?" There is also corn, and it is not clear whether it has been licked or not...... "Lin Lin always picked up a bunch of questions, and soon wrote a letter, ordering someone to send it to the Manchu side overnight.

Perhaps Yao Qisheng's letter was full of emotion and sincerity, and the other party not only did not get angry, but took the trouble to explain the origin of silk and linen, and whether the corn had been scooped up.

The commander of the security team was a dead brain, and when he saw that the Manchus had a reply soon, he was still worried.

"Look, people are determined to ask for things, see if you give it or not!"

This time it annoyed Yao Qisheng, "What? Are you so afraid of the Manchu Tartars? Do you want Yao to go to the military gate and transfer you back to the auxiliary barracks? ”

This commander knew that Yao Qisheng was a small soldier in charge of food in the auxiliary barracks before, and now he has become his subordinate, so he naturally felt pantothenic acid in his heart, so he always showed more in words. Yao Qisheng has always put the overall situation first and doesn't care about it, but today he couldn't bear it anymore, so he spread out the row and directly reprimanded.

Hearing that Yao Qisheng planned to send Cheng Mingjiu back to the auxiliary barracks, the commander of the security team was a little weak at that time.

"No, no! I'm afraid that where his tartars will come, if he dares to come, I will take my soldiers to beat them and call them mothers! ”

Yao Qisheng smiled: "This is like the words, don't always fall into your own prestige first." Then he changed his words again, "Don't worry, this battle won't start in a short time, and even if it does, you won't need your security team to fight!" ”

Originally, the commander of the security team had already relieved his heart and breathed a sigh of relief, but when he heard Yao Qisheng say this, he became nervous again, did he still want to annoy the Manchu Dynasty after all? To tell the truth, he is really afraid, don't look at the joy he calls on weekdays, but after all, he has participated in the auxiliary soldiers of the Three Guards Army for no more than a year, and he is a person from Ying Tianfu, and he has never participated in the Great War of Western Liao, and he is full of jealousy and fear in his heart for the Manchu Dynasty and the vast majority of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

He thinks that more things are better than less things, Yao Qisheng is playing with fire.

Right! Yao Qisheng is indeed playing with fire, but this fire is played well, and it is not in vain that Cheng Junmen will reuse him.

Yao Qisheng did not really return the materials, nor did he release the people according to the list. These lists were all compiled for the outlaw gentry in Korea after they fled to the Manchu Dynasty, and Yao Qisheng was not willing to fall for them easily.

So he wrote a handwritten letter again, bluntly saying that there were many discrepancies between the list and the list and the actual situation he had grasped, and asked the other party to draw up a new list and list in the future, so as to facilitate his actions.

In fact, at this point, even a fool should be able to see that Yao Qisheng is the prefect of the Tartar across the river.

Either the other party has illusions and continues to revise the list and list, or they will really start a war and kill the river quickly. Yao Qisheng calculated that the other party would not go to war, how could a local prefect be the master of the small court of the Manchu Dynasty? It is only some brainless magistrates who are frightened that will believe their blackmail.

Yao Qisheng sneered in his heart, he can afford to look up to you, so he is playing word games with you, and after a few days, the new army arrives at Ping'an Road, that is, I will raise troops to cross the river!
