'This year, Guangdong's Tian Fu and miscellaneous factions will be exempted. The revenue of the military government is the confiscation of the fields and properties of corrupt officials and gentry (the latter mainly depends on their position, and the crows in the world are generally black), as well as the commercial taxes of Guangdong in the two months before and after the New Year. If the confiscated funds are not counted, the military government's monthly income is at most 3.5 million silver dollars, and the expenses can be at least one million. Van der Bang is very sensitive to numbers. In the part of making estimates, he is very skilled.

In the more than 100 counties and more than 10 prefectures in Guangdong Province, plus the military government in the provincial capital, there are probably 40,000 or 50,000 officials and civil servants on the staff, and 2 million silver dollars are indispensable for monthly administrative expenses and salaries of civil servants. In fact, a large part of it will be distributed in the form of Chinese dollars, and Qin Jun is equivalent to using the products produced by his own factory directly as money, and this kind of calculation of the administrative expenses of Guangdong Province will also cost 1.2 million to 1.5 million silver dollars. The deficit will exceed 10 million silver dollars in a year.

No matter how much money is spent on a business, it can't compare to a rebellion. The financial deficits of the various places under Liu Xian's jurisdiction, plus the army's military spending, if there is no captured enemy funds to supplement it, all the Qin army's continued holdings can be sucked up in half a year!

Therefore, it is indispensable to ruthlessly confiscate the enemy's land, property, and goods.

As the number one person in the civil and official aspects of the Qin army, Fan Debang knew that the Qin army confiscated as much as 4 million mu of land, more than 10,000 houses, more than 11,000 shops, and all gold and silver were equivalent to more than 1,700 silver dollars.

All the property of the Eight Banners garrisoned in Guangzhou was completely destroyed by the Qin army in one fell swoop. Those opium dealers and many dignitaries, as well as I don't know how many famous officials and eunuchs, were all dealt with.

Don't say anything else. You only need to know that half of the more than 11,000 stores are in Guangzhou City, and that's enough.

I didn't do any business and make money quickly.

Four million acres of ripe land. More than 10,000 houses, more than 11,000 shops. How much silver should I be able to sell? The fields of Guangzhou Prefecture are all the best fields in the Pearl River Delta. These four million acres alone are worth at least 10,000 silver dollars. Although it is impossible to realize all of them in a short period of time, Liu Xian is not short of money now!

Therefore, officially because of the wealth, Liu Xian recruited soldiers on a large scale, increased military salaries accordingly, and directly distributed military merit fields to disabled veterans and the families of dead officers and soldiers, which was the biggest reason for the rapid increase in the strength of the Qin army, but the morale of the army was still strong.

For those recruits who walked into the boot camp, Liu Xian didn't have time to exchange kindness and honor for their sincerity. You can only use the gold and silver of the red fruit!

In addition, there were many Manchu official properties that were not counted, and those properties had to be used by the newly established military government, and were not included in the distribution and sale.

'Sue the people below, and the police will forget it. For those joint defenses, the salary is reduced by half compared to the police officer. Give them a little subsidy on agricultural taxes! ‘

The police force in a county needs two or three hundred, and if you include the riot squad, it will be three or four hundred. If all the police officers are regular, how much money will it cost in a year? There are more than 100 counties in Guangdong. There are also more than 10 prefectures and cities, as well as Guangzhou City, the first name of Nantian. The police force in the province is working towards 50,000 people. This number will all become civil servants, and the court of the Qin army will be eaten up.

……

Putian. Xinghua Fucheng City. In Liu Xian's eyes, this place is more because of the existence of Southern Shaolin, which makes him remember it vividly.

Since the Qin army raised troops, Wen Xu, the prefect of Xinghua, seized the time to build a number of forts and beacon towers along the coast. But in the end, the time is short, and the defense is limited.

If the Qin army used Jiao Wenbin's first battalion of marines to attack Xinghua directly, it was possible to capture the city in one fell swoop. But sacrifice is also a must. Because Wen Xu, the prefect of Xinghua, is a banner man, and he is full of eight banners.

Liu Xian asked the Xinghua sub-station of the Military Intelligence Department to do more united front work. Take advantage of the New Year!

Liu Xian's order. Naturally, the MI operates with power. The head of the Xinghua station is called Chen Yang, a junior with very little seniority. Xinghua Station belongs to three types of stations in the system of the Military Intelligence Department. But Chen Yang, who has just taken root for more than a year, still has a good relationship in Xinghua.

He found Chen Zhandong, the commander of Putian County. Both of them are from Sichuan, absolute fellow countrymen. The reason why Chen Yangming's business can gain a firm foothold in Xinghua has a lot to do with Chen Zhandong's survival.

As a small county order, it stands to reason that it can't help much. The real power of Xinghua is in the hands of the prefect Wen Xu and the local garrison of the green battalion. However, since the Qin army has been getting closer and closer to Xinghua, Putian, a place with a tradition of martial arts, has drawn up a group of township warriors between towns and villages. These people did not come to oppose the Qin army, but more to confront the green camp, lest this group of Qiu Ba take the opportunity to go to the countryside to fight the autumn wind and harm the township.

And Chen Zhandong, as an old parent official who has served as a county magistrate in Putian for five years, he still has a bit of prestige. He also holds a team of more than 200 villagers. These people are Chen Zhandong's strength!

Estuary. This is a very inconspicuous small fishing village outside the city of Putian, compared with other seaside fishing villages, if there is any benefit, it is that it is close to the official road. Less than a mile through the village, it is the official road that only leads to Putian.

The Qing army didn't lay people here, and there were only a few soldiers in Xiaoxiao Xinghua?

The real main army in Fujian is the Chu army, and the Xinghua battalion and the Xianyou battalion are of course also the Chu army. But now the main forces of the Chu army have gathered in Fuzhou. The Xianyou battalion was transferred in its entirety, and when the Xinghua battalion was full, there were only a total of 600 soldiers, and now 200 are in Xianyou, and the remaining branches are already in the Meilan Fort and Putian City, and the troops are already insufficient, and the countryside is more dependent on the militia of various roads to maintain it.

The Qin marines touched the mouth of the river in the middle of the night, and no one noticed it.

The night is vast, and I can't see my fingers. The dark sky was dotted with stars, but there was no shadow of the moon.

On the official road leading to Putian County, you can see a bright sentry post in the distance. There were a few torches on the sentry post, and the firelight reflected a group of grim-faced villagers, and a middle-aged man dressed as a soldier in the middle looked at the location of the fort not far away, and a sneer containing murderous intent appeared on his face.

"Big brother!"

"Big brother!"

The prestige of the man in the middle is still quite high.

"Brothers, our brothers, in the future, whether we will eat bran and drink thin or fragrant and spicy will depend on tonight's transaction." The middle-aged man's eyes flashed hideous. "The people present are all my Wu Yongfei's brothers, everyone put their lives in the hands of me Wu Yongfei, and I will lead everyone to break out of a rich road today!"

Everyone around them didn't say anything, but everyone's eyes were fiery and hot. Just like Wu Yongfei said, the people present now are all people he can trust, and they are all people who have put their lives in his hands, and those who can't believe it are either not at the outpost, or they have become corpses.

In this outpost, not only was the atmosphere blazing, but at the same time, there was also a faint smell of blood. In the dark and invisible part of the outpost, several corpses were still bleeding.

"Listen, everybody, there are our men in the fort, and it's easy for us to get into the fort. All we have to do is rush in, shout loudly, kill the leader, and take the fort. Then take advantage of the chaos to coerce Ding Yong, and beat the team of Xiangyong on the right. To welcome the landing of the Qin army on the sea, this great achievement was made. ”

For the sake of safety, the Qin army divided the marine troops into two, one landed at the mouth of the river thirty or forty miles away from the county seat of Putian, and the other landed on a fort only ten miles away from the county seat.

Wu Yongfei swept his eyes and looked at the people around him, "Brothers, the Great Qin is just rising, and the troubled times in the world have come again. Who dares to say that there is no next Bao Chao and Liu Mingchuan among you and my brothers? If you want to be rich and rich, if you want to be promising, follow Lao Tzu to kill it!! ”

Needless to say, the heat in everyone's eyes can't be faked.

Wu Yongfei smirked, this is a person, greedy for life and afraid of death, greedy for wealth and nobility are indispensable. The Qin army's soldiers are the protagonists, and it is no wonder that their benefactor, Lord Chen, Zhixian Chen, and the dignified Jinshi, are all reversed!

He and others are trying to be rich, and what Lord Chen wants is also wealth. There were countless Jinshi in the Qing Dynasty, and there were few Jinshi in the Great Qin Dynasty. Just tonight's transaction, Lord Chen will be able to sit on the Xinghua prefect when he turns around!

The front fort was only more than half a mile away, and most of the people were sleeping in the middle of the night, and there were very few vigils, and there was even more internal response. Wu Yongfei has full confidence in the sneak attack on the fort!

"Be careful, don't make any big noise!" While sneaking, Wu Yongfei said to the forty or fifty people behind him.

The darkness of the night gave them excellent cover, and it was difficult for the night watchmen on the fort to detect that someone was slowly approaching them, even if their eyes were wide open. Ding Yong's eyes were all looking at the sea, and no one expected that danger would come from behind.

Rounding the back of the fort, the gate was opened by those who had been waiting there.

"Rush straight in, kill the one surnamed Gao, this fort is ours. The people they met along the way shouted that the Qin army had been killed, surrender and avoid death, and see which rabbit cub dared to stretch out his hand. Wu Yongfei said that, he pulled out the sidecar on his waist violently, yelled "kill", and rushed in first.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"The Qin army is killed, surrender and don't kill."

Just these forty or fifty people rushed straight into the fort, and in just an instant, the fort where more than 100 Ding Yong was stationed was thrown into chaos.

"It's not good, it's an enemy attack!" There is a Chu army shouting.

"Enemy attack!"

"Someone sneaked up!" More Ding Yong was awakened and found that it was not good. It's just that few of these Ding Yong people dared to rush up to stop them, and some of them were running and shouting in panic, and the other part of them surrendered directly.

There are more than 100 people in the fort, and the real person is 'My Daqing' to die, and Wu Yongfei should be one to one.

But it is obvious that not even a tenth of the more than 100 people worked for the Qing Dynasty.

The entire fort was a mess, and after Gao Chengfeng, who was sleeping beautifully in the single room, was awakened, before he could figure out what was going on, Wu Yongfei had already rushed to him with someone.

Gao Chengfeng is an artillery officer of the Chu army, and when he saw the blade splitting and dodging, he didn't even have the ability to fly with Wu Yong, who had been practicing martial arts all year round.

Wu Yongfei only turned the blade and changed it to a chip, the blood flashed, a human skull rolled to the ground, and Gao Chengfeng's headless corpse also fell to the ground...... (To be continued......) R1292
