Chapter 111: Restoring Order

So these people first thought of those who usually have more money in the family, and who still has beautiful women, or who usually has a holiday with them, and this is the time for them to do a big job.

These despicable fellows, so they immediately thought of doing it, found some guys, and immediately began to do a big job, robbing while the fire was burning in the city, and then robbing or running to spoil women, and some people ran to the rebel camp to pick up the leaks to see if the rebels had left anything, in short, in the city of Pingdu, it was soon looted again, the adults scolded the children and cried, the scoundrels gathered together, under the leadership of a certain strongman, they searched from house to house, and when they saw a more beautiful woman, they were pushed down on the spot, Those who resist or disobey will be killed on the spot.

At this time, a group of officers and cavalry with bright armor and bright armor suddenly appeared at the north gate of Pingdu City, rushed into the city like a whirlwind, and quickly divided into small teams, a group of ten people, and swept to all important places in the city at the fastest speed.

Along the way, as long as they found a mob in the streets, they raised their hands without saying a word, or immediately stabbed them with guns, and the streets immediately resounded with the screams of the mobs, and after their horses swept by, they left behind the corpses of the mob, and the blood stained the streets of Pingdu City again.

The cavalry company of Yu's army was the first to rush into Pingdu City, and took control of important places such as official offices, warehouses, wells, barracks, and prison cells in the city, including the houses of some large families that had been slaughtered by the rebels.

Soon after, two infantry companies followed into the county town of Pingdu, and they were ordered to begin a search in the city, and by the way, they also suppressed the rioters in the city who took advantage of the opportunity to make trouble, and suppressed the chaos in the city in the shortest possible time.

Not long after Yujia's army entered the city, order was finally restored to Pingdu City, and a three-day curfew began to be imposed in the city.

There were members of the sea wolf who were in charge of local affairs, entered the city, began to restore the operation of various affairs in the city, requisitioned the people in the city, cleaned up the messy city streets, collected all kinds of discarded sundries, handed them over to the Yu family army for selection, left useful things, and transported the rest out of the city to be discarded.

As for the rioters in the city who came and were killed, they were chopped off by the Yu family army and hung in the streets and alleys as a deterrent to the restless people in the city.

In addition, at the intersections of the main streets, temporary public notice stations were set up to receive the complaints of ordinary people in the city, and then according to their complaints, the mob that participated in the rebellion and fled the city to rob, kill, and molest women.

In the past three days, the thugs who participated in the riots that have been cleared out and caught have basically been arrested, and after confirming the repeat offenders, they were immediately beheaded for public display, and those who did not commit crimes to death were also beaten separately, and their illegal gains were confiscated and "confiscated."

But the generals of the Yu family army, for the ordinary people, are quite good, at least there are no soldiers of the Yu family army, after entering the city, they also come nonsense, the vast majority of the Yu family army generals, have adhered to military discipline, fulfilled their duties in the city, and even provided some ordinary people who suffered in terms of material and manpower help.

It turned out that the people in the city looked forward to the official army coming to restore the city every day, but when the official army really came, they felt very scared, because the reputation of the official army was really unbearable, especially the guest army transferred from these different places (I dizzy, these two words are actually prohibited), and it was no better than the rebels.

Therefore, when Yu's army entered the city and took control of Pingdu City, the people in the city were all frightened and hid at home and did not dare to come out.

But after observing for a while, they found that this group of officers and soldiers with southern accents who entered the city seemed to have very good military discipline, and basically no one broke into the houses without permission, wantonly looted or spoiled women, but scrupulously abided by their duties, patrolled or stood guard on the streets, and sent people to beat gongs, walk in the streets and alleys of the city, announce their announcements, and let the people go to the streets to make an orderly complaint, and they can make decisions for the people.

After a few days, the common people finally discovered that this group of Fujian officials and soldiers can indeed be called a benevolent and righteous army, and they dare not say that they love the people like sons, but at least they do not harm the people lightly, and even forcibly recruit and transfer the young and strong people who clean the streets in the city and collect the corpses in the city, and after a day's work, they will also give them some food, so that they can take them home and let their families have a bite to eat.

At this time, the streets and alleys were posted with notices to the people, so that the people in the city do not have to panic, after the three-day curfew, those who do business can resume the market, and those who need to work can resume work, and at the same time, they also give ten catties of food to the people in the city, so that they can live temporarily.

After the common people learned that this official army actually gave them grain and relief, many people were so moved that they almost cried again, saying that they had finally met a benevolent army, and now they don't have to worry about it every day.

In the matter of distributing food, Yu Jiajun did not let the people go to collect it by themselves, because there was not much food, and it was inevitable that someone would run to collect it many times, so it was really not easy to control, so they found a hundred and ten people in the city who usually had a good reputation for virtue, and sent a bill that looked very beautifully printed to each family on their behalf.

In this way, people who want to receive more or take it off the hook have no way, basically they can ensure that every family receives temporary relief food, but afterwards it was found that some people did not receive it, and after strict investigation, it was found that the food stamps that should have been given to them were swallowed by a few guys, so they were brought back to their homes.

These selfish people were inevitably taken out to parade through the streets, and they were stripped naked on the spot, pressed near the door of their homes, and publicly beat their butts.

In short, the various measures taken by Yu Jiajun after entering the city won the support of the people in Pingdu City, so that Yu Jiajun gained a very good reputation in the local area.

This kind of word-of-mouth will definitely be gradually spread in the future, and it will spread farther and farther, which will play an unexpectedly huge role in the future when the Yu family army carries out operations in the north.

In this era, in fact, the imperial power is only a subtle and deeply rooted thing in the hearts of the people, and the imperial power occupies the righteousness on the surface, but this kind of righteousness is actually only stronger in the minds of the readers, but for the people at the bottom of the society, there is not so much deterrence, otherwise the world will not be in chaos now, and the displaced people have rebelled from thieves.

And the reputation of a benevolent and righteous division is very important for Yu Jiajun, the people don't care who you are at all, they are most concerned about only who will be good to them, who will be beneficial to them, how can Li Zicheng attack the Beijing division in history, to put it bluntly, Li Zicheng won the hearts of the people, and those who won the hearts of the people won the world, the reason why Li Zicheng was driven out of the Beijing division in a short period of time later, to put it bluntly, he lost the hearts of the people again, so he was finally beaten back to his original form, became a grass coward, and finally ended up with an unknown end of death.

Therefore, although the Yu family army came to Denglai to quell the rebellion, they were only guest soldiers, but Yu Xiaotian did not relax military discipline and let his subordinates come because they were guest soldiers.

He only allows his subordinates to target those rich people who lack morality, take those ownerless goods, and for ordinary people, he can't wantonly harm and bully, which is also paving the way for his future actions in advance.

After he recovered Pingdu City, he did not immediately lead his troops to Laizhou City, but stopped advancing in Pingdu Prefecture and reported the news to Zhu Dadian, who was sitting in Qingzhou.

Zhu Dadian in a few days, he received several succession from Yu Xiaotian, the excitement almost did not faint, compared with several other official troops, Yu Xiaotian's Fujian official army, can be said to be a standout, this short period of more than ten days, they from Jiaozhou to Pingdu, one after another won one after another, according to Yu Xiaotian's war report, these days, they killed nearly 1,000 rebels, captured rebels, at least about 2,000 people.

Since the rebels started a rebellion, the Ming officers and soldiers against the rebels, it can be said that they have lost a battle, the loss of officers and soldiers has been tens of thousands, but the rebels are fighting more and more, in addition to the old department of the Dongjiang Army in Dengzhou itself, they also continue to forcibly force the captured officers and soldiers to join the gang, give them cannon fodder, and recruit the Liaodong Han people who fled to the Denglai area to join the gang, follow them to make trouble, coupled with the coerced people, so that the total strength of the rebels has now developed to tens of thousands.

However, there were fewer and fewer officers and troops on the Shandong side, and they lost one after another, and each officer army became a supply brigade for the rebels, sending a large number of soldiers, armor, camp tents, money and food to the rebels, making the rebels more and more arrogant.

Now Shandong soldiers, Zhejiang soldiers, Sichuan soldiers were transferred by Zhu Dadian to Qingzhou and Laizhou along the line of defense, some of these soldiers and horses have not yet arrived, some even if they are in place, they are also closed to the city gates, resolutely unwilling to take the initiative to attack, except for the occasional small clash between the two sides at night, occasionally killed a few rebels who do not collect at night, will also be hyped by these guys, known as a great victory, fart sent people to Qingzhou to play victory, but also asked for a reward.

But compared with the Fujian soldiers led by Yu Xiaotian, it is simply impossible to see, speaking of which they also have more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, but in total these days, the heads of the rebels have been killed, but there are only dozens of them are insufficient, and how many of them are the heads of the real rebels, which remains to be investigated.
