Chapter 451: Just like this at this moment
Yan Zheng has read the struggle in District S, and this kind of book teaches him a truth, that is, when there is going to be a riot, you must not fight hard in the early stage where the government is strong.
It is necessary to make a mess in all directions with the idea of making trouble, and as long as all but the city is plunged into anarchy, then the area under the influence of the squire's clan will definitely not be able to defeat the team with the barrel of a gun.
This principle is very simple and very subtle, and it can be summed up in one sentence, that is, "the countryside surrounds the city and seizes power by force."
Because ancient dynasties did not have the ability to build political power to the grassroots level, they often had imperial power.
The township covenant governs the locality, and the local sages and gentry have, to a certain extent, the local judicial power and law enforcement power.
It can even be extended to an ideology, and the township covenant has become a conceptual thing, deeply rooted in the people at the bottom of the feudal dynasty.
How big was the impact of the Township Covenant? The township covenant first came from "Zhou Li", and the real writing was "Lantian Lu's Township Covenant".
After Zhu Xi's development of Confucianism, it was determined that the rites must be subordinate, so he adapted and wrote "The Covenant of the Lu Family".
In the Ming Dynasty, it was generally used to let the village elders determine the township covenants in various places on the basis of the Lu Township Covenant and use it to educate the people.
The village elders also deal with the internal contradictions among the people in the countryside and townships according to this, and even when the county order deals with certain cases, it is necessary to invite a few village sages to ask one or two, otherwise, the local clans will definitely make a stumbling block.
For the local clans, the township covenant has become where their interests lie, and for the common people, the township covenant has become the standard for their value judgment and the concept they adhere to.
The policy of ignoring the people in the feudal era made the common people very stubborn about these things, and the village sages also contributed to it, jointly maintaining a feudal system and realizing the enslavement of the upper class to the bottom.
So some people angrily scolded the people at the end of the Qing Dynasty for being insensitive, but this is not right! Conceptual things they also heard from the mouths of the older generation and incorporated them into their code of conduct.
This kind of ideological slavery is even more terrible, and poor families can do a lot of burial for the sake of "filial piety", and they will not hesitate to sell their houses and fields for this purpose.
All kinds of celebrations and rituals also deeply increase their burden, not to mention the oppression of women.
The solution to this problem is to create a state of anarchy, which can be filled by more advanced organizations, and after the abolition of the township covenant, new ideas and new knowledge will be popularized again, so that they can understand who is the real mountain on their heads.
Only when this is smoothed out, and the people's concepts have different things, can they follow you and give birth to a lot of new ideas.
Relying on a few articles alone can only excite intellectuals, and they must do it themselves and start from a small place in order to change quantitatively and qualitatively.
It's a pity that Yan Zheng is still "reactionary" in nature, although he is more advanced than the Ming court, but he is most afraid of the people of the Ming Dynasty and awakens ideologically.
Therefore, the strategy he formulated was to first pretend to be "bandits" to expand the anarchy in the southern Jiangxi region, and then play the banner of "guns in hand, follow me, kill landlords, and rob watchtowers".
After the population was gathered, he gave them a new concept, that is, to tell the people of the Ming Dynasty that the root of their miserable life was that they were born in the Ming Kingdom.
Through the heart-to-heart talks of the Ming immigrants, they felt that the air in Dongqin was sweet, and they could live for a few years without eating in Dongqin.
As long as this fashion is formed, then the people of Nanjiang will naturally follow.
…………
Half a month later, in the middle of the night at Guangzhou Customs, a steamer from Dongqin, braving the light of the stars, sailed into the port from the night.
Customs officers were already waiting on the shore, and the concave and convex mirror searchlights were shining, making the dock exceptionally bright.
The trestle here has been cleared, and there is only such a steamer, with a light on the ship, one on and one on and off.
There are also people on the shore, using lights to communicate, and after getting the signal that everything is normal, the personnel on the ship and at the dock are moving quickly.
Huang Wenfeng stood aside, and the Guangdong businessman had not many choices, and almost quickly pledged to donate 300,000 taels, even if he couldn't connect the broken leg, he could win the favor of the Eastern Qin Jun.
After a while, a man in a black corset came down from the boat, and his head was wrapped in a black cloth.
"Comrade Zhao Yunyi, welcome to Guangzhou!" Song Chengxian, director of the General Administration of Customs, and Su Chu, director of the General Administration of Customs, stepped forward to shake hands and say hello.
"Thank you, comrades from customs! The secrecy of our trip is very high, this is a special order of the government, you can act in accordance with the special order! ”
"No problem!" Song Chengxian took the special order and waved his hand to let people start unloading.
One by one, the wooden boxes were unloaded, loaded onto the waiting carriage, and headed for the dock of the Pearl River.
The people on the ship also ran down in a row and lined up, all of them were wearing cloth clothes, which looked like Ming decorations, and the clothes were not uniform, only the black cloth on their heads was uniform.
A total of hundreds of people ran down, and a lot of food was unloaded, as well as dozens of entourage.
As another ship entered the port, a number of horses were unloaded, and by the time both ships had been unloaded, the count was almost complete.
Zhao Yunyi asked, "Where is Comrade Huang Wenfeng?" Have you done everything along the way? ”
Huang Wenfeng hurriedly stepped forward and said: "This route is the old road taken by our Guangdong businessmen, only blocked on the first line of Da Yuling, as long as you take this road, the water bandits and mountain bandits on the road will not be blocked, and our guide has been found!" The pass at the Great Yuling will not be blocked! The premise is that the weapon cannot be shown and can only be placed in a wooden box, so there is a certain risk before the trip. ”
"It's okay!" Zhao Yunyi said with a smile: "We all have chain mail woven with steel wire, even if we hold spears, we don't take a few thieves in our eyes!" ”
Huang Wenfeng nodded and called the guide over to recognize the person.
Not long after, these more than 500 people sat on the boat and drove quickly towards northern Guangdong.
A team of more than 500 people, with little logistical pressure, can master powerful firepower, in a zone like Nanjiang, it is enough to defeat one hundred.
Their strategic goals are also very clear, first of all, to open up the Da Yuling channel, firmly ensure the stability of the trade route, and use the channel of land merchants to transfer the population from the trade route.
And by means of righteousness, in the anarchic areas of southern Jiangxi, all the landlords in the area were overthrown, and the land was divided among these villagers, and at the same time, the young and strong were coerced to carry out all-round propaganda work.
At the same time, it is necessary to ruthlessly expel and attack the rebels in the area to ensure that they do not destroy more areas, so that the place is only a fist-sized mountain.
At that time, you will be able to negotiate with the government of Nangan and withdraw from it smoothly!
As long as a few rumors of returning to their hometowns are created, then the people who have divided the land will be forced to retreat with Dongqin!
If it is operated properly, a large number of good people in the Southern Jiangxi region will be coerced!
…………
Nanchang Station, heaven and earth.
Because this green building is too popular, several famous prostitutes in Nanchang have been dug up.
Xu Fenglai also became the number one person in Nanchang City, he walked in the official and business worlds, and the half-concealed relationship with Ning Wangfu made this somewhat elegant man a famous broker.
With the beginning of the interference in Nanjiang, Xu Feng came to find a lot of businessmen, and there was only one business to do with them, and this was the grain business!
When the troubled times come, food is the most valuable, and only with food and guns can things be done.
The task of Nanchang Station is to raise as much grain as possible from Huguang to northern Jiangxi and transfer it to the southern Jiangxi region.
Because Yan Zheng's measures are also centered on destroying local production, he has to turn the young and strong into a rogue in order to let them follow.
At the same time, the intelligence work in the building also began to keep an eye on the dynamics of the imperial court.
"Master Xu, this Nangan wants to use troops, should we withdraw first? If we are found to be unclear with the black people, won't our lives be in danger? ”
As soon as Xu Fenglai finished talking with Shang Jia, Yun Niang touched his room, and Liu frowned and said worried.
Xu Fenglai looked at her in astonishment and said, "This kind of thing, don't say it to the second person!" ”
"Why! At the moment, our silver is not enough, and I also think that a few good nobles in this building, as long as we are willing, we can immediately leave this nest and live a quiet and rich life! Yun Niang twisted her thin waist and said.
"You're showing off coquettishness and ambition in the building!" Xu Fenglai pulled her to the corner and said, "You must not have this kind of thought in the future!" ”
"Why! What do we owe to Dongqin? ”
"Call you stupid, you're still stupid!" Xu Fenglai explained: "How can this black man's thighs be hugged if he can be hugged, and if he can't be hugged, he won't hug it? At present, our identity and status are supported by a brand of Huangren, what can you do when you go to other places? It's nothing more than buying a few acres of land and being a rich man, but your deed is all done with the help of the people, you really have to study carefully, you are not familiar with life in a place, and even the bones and dregs have to be eaten!
But now it's different! Your Majesty wants us to do something, and if we do it well, it will be a great achievement! We are also holding the identity of the Eastern Qin expatriate, even if the Ming Dynasty catches us, they have to think about it or two, after all, according to the Ningbo Treaty, as long as the consul of the Eastern Qin has the right to adjudicate the Eastern Qin nationals in the Ming Dynasty! What is it? This is the gold medal for avoiding death! ”
Yun Niang thought for a while and said, "But this ...... We were thrown in Nanchang, and Dongqin really wanted to start a war with the Ming Dynasty, how could he take care of us? ”
"In your life, you can only be coquettish, don't think about what you want to think, listen to me! Go, tomorrow you ask those sons to come over to talk, just say if you are interested, learn some ways to grow hair, and ensure that one or two silver comes in, at least thirty percent of the interest! ”
Yun Niang left the room a little confused, and Xu Fenglai sighed.
Joke! Now he is in Nanchang City, but he is a well-known figure, how can he have this honor when he goes to other places? He can mix this with one play, let him die here!
