Chapter 203: The Peasants of Great Xia

After going back, Chen Mu immediately set about it.

In every region of Great Xia, Chen Mu arranged for Mai Wei and to meet with the imperial history to put an end to the possibility of favoritism and malpractice by officials.

Mai Wei will pretend to be a person watching the excitement, and the reception of the imperial history is wearing official clothes and sitting in the hall to supervise.

The so-called meeting with the imperial history is a group of people specially selected by Chen Mu. They are all young people from civilian backgrounds who have received a New Era College education and are full of ideals and justice in their hearts.

When the people first heard about this, most of them didn't believe it. But there are also people who are forced to be helpless, and they go to meet with the mentality of treating dead horses as live horse doctors.

In full view of the public, the interviewer spoke of the abusive behavior of local officials who disregarded human lives.

At that time, Chen Mu was sitting in the reception hall of the capital, personally making a decision, asking people to investigate the matter immediately, and at the same time assigned Mai Wei to secretly supervise.

The matter was quickly clarified, and the official was indeed guilty, and the investigators directly put him on the train and quickly escorted him to the capital to behead him.

It's so fast that it's staggering.

Now, Daxia is a sensation up and down!

The people can sue the officials!

And you can win!

Decapitated in a few days!

The poor people are all grateful.

On the contrary, some officials who are usually inappropriate are afraid and hate Chen Mu.

In just a few days, many officials who had secretly embezzled and mutilated the lives of the people in the past have changed dramatically overnight, taking the initiative to hand over the silver they had embezzled in the past and returning it to the people with other benefits.

The people were grateful to Chen Mu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

In short, as soon as this measure was implemented, officials across the country were cautious and did not dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool, for fear that they would accidentally step into the abyss and bring disaster to their own family.

However, just when Chen Mu was overjoyed, what he never expected was that his policy was still a little late.

Not long after receiving the official who had beheaded the stolen goods at the beginning of the policy, some people in the Dongyuan area came to report that some people rebelled.

Chen Mu was shocked, and after getting the news, he immediately asked the subordinates who came to report.

"What's going on? How could there be a rebellion among the people in my Great Xia Rule? ”

The subordinate hurriedly replied in a panic: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, the governor of Dongyuan said that these people were originally local farmers, and they were instigated by others to gather in Dongsu County to rebel. ”

"There are farmers in the surrounding counties who have responded, and now there should be more than 6,000 people. At present, the lockdown of surrounding counties has been arranged. ”

Chen Mu nodded.

According to the military system of Bactria , only the central government and the border county towns had troops, and the rest of the counties only had government service.

The governors of the regions do not have the right to mobilize the border troops, so it is also positive for the governors of Dongyuan to blockade the surrounding area and reduce the influence of the anti-thieves.

Anyway, there is an artifact called a train, and it is very fast to transfer troops from the capital.

However, if it is peaceful today, there is no shortage of food or clothing, there is a channel for the rise of the imperial examination inside, and medicine is widely circulated outside, why should these people rebel?

Back then, there were people who rebelled, which was the bewitchment of the Yin Tang organization and the ambition of Cheng Xu. Who will take the lead now?

And this Dongyuan prefect is the original master of Qingqu County.

In the disaster situation in Dongyuan that year, the officials sent by the imperial court to relieve the disaster and local officials jointly embezzled, and it was he who recorded all kinds of illegal acts of corrupt officials, including the then governor of Dongyuan who was beheaded for public display.

This master of Qingqu County was exceptionally promoted by Chen Xingtian to the new governor of Dongyuan.

It stands to reason that under his rule, this kind of thing should not happen.

Chen Mu suddenly found a problem and asked suspiciously: "You said that you were a local farmer?" So now they are not farmers? ”

The subordinate nodded and replied: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, according to the records of Dongyuan, these people were originally farming, but in recent years, the rice from the Northeast has poured in, and the quality and price are better than those of Dongyuan's rice millet, so they gradually stopped farming." ”

"Governor Dongyuan thinks that maybe they really can't make a living, so they will be bewitched and embark on the road of rebellion."

Chen Mu was shocked.

I didn't expect that Northeast rice, a project that benefits the country and the people, would hurt farmers in the Dongyuan area.

"It's not like they didn't farm on the first day, why didn't you solve it earlier?"

Chen Mu's tone was a little heavy.

The subordinates hurriedly replied for the chief of Dongyuan: "His Royal Highness the Prince, I also reminded them of my humble duties and asked them to go to the workshop and the store to be partners, but this gap is too big, and the store can't use so many people." ”

Chen Mu thought about it, this question was indeed a bit difficult for Chief Dongyuan.

"I know, if there is a problem that cannot be solved in the future, I must report it in time."

"I'll take someone to deal with it myself, you just keep the lockdown going."

After finishing speaking, Chen Mu hung up the phone and drove directly to the barracks to mobilize the invincible flying army.

This army is the most disciplined and well-equipped army in Great Xia.

Chen Mu asked them to bring a full set of muskets, long swords, shields, iron armor, and pepper tear gas and their special crossbows.

If the situation allows, Chen Mu does not want to kill his own people, after all, they are also forced to rebel.

The group rode in the latest internal combustion engine tracked car, and it was light and simple, relying on supplies along the way, and the speed was not much slower than that of the train.

I stayed in a tent for the night, and arrived in Dongsu County at noon the next day.

Due to the timely blockade, the rebels could no longer go to the perimeter to agitate the masses, and were now stationed on a mountain.

They have already robbed the grain and iron ore of the Dongsu County treasury, and now they may be building weapons in the mountains.

Although it is said that the weapons and equipment of the regular army of Great Xia absolutely crush the cold weapons, these peasants may not know it.

Chen Mu led the troops to the outside of the mountain, and found that it was difficult for the crawler to go up the mountain, so he led 4,000 people to get out of the car and march towards the cottage on foot.

The rebels discovered them and, beating gongs and drums, began to prepare for defense.

Chen Mu led the leading troops close to the wall, and when they came within the range of the muskets, he ordered people to start shooting at the wall.

"Circular siege formation!"

"Aim for the shoulder of the traitor at the head of the city and shoot!"

Chen Mu gave an order, and the soldiers of the invincible flying army opened fire one after another.

These soldiers have long been perfected in their shooting skills, saying that they will hit the left shoulder rather than the left chest. What's more, these rebels have no experience in fighting muskets at all, and they are purely live targets.

After two rounds of muskets, the rebels on the wall fell to the ground with shoulder shots.

And the rebels' bows and arrows are useless, and they can't reach the invincible flying army at all.

Chen Mu was not surprised by this battle situation, he was surprised that the rebels' resistance was not fierce.

It's not like there's a fire in the nest, but it's a little reluctant.

Looking at the current tragic situation, Chen Mu felt a little unbearable in his heart, did they have any bitterness in their hearts?
