Chapter 162: Principal Wang, Who Are You Going to Impeach? (Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass)
December of the tenth year of Kangxi.
Next to the West Daying outside the Jingxing Gate at the west gate of Zhaoqing City, on the playground of the Jingwu Academy, I once again remembered the majestic singing: "Get up, don't be a poor pariah!" Arise, and do not be lambs to the slaughter! The blood is already boiling, and we should fight for the unity of the world."
Three hundred outer disciples of the Jingwu Academy, one hundred and fifty inner disciples of the Jingwu Academy (including eighteen true legends), lined up a neat battalion phalanx on the playground of the Jingwu Academy, each of them standing straight, and wearing the "non-commissioned officer uniform" designed for them by Wang Zhongxiao - a blue round-necked slit robe, with a wide belt wrapped around the waist, and the cuffs of the robe were not horseshoe sleeves, but neat narrow sleeves. Each of them wore a pair of old cloth shoes with mille-feuille soles, and their calves were tied with bandages layer by layer, and they had a legging.
These disciples of the Jingwu Sect seem to have not shaved their heads for some days, and their bald heads, which should have been smooth, have grown a layer of board inches, and the braid at the back of their heads has also been cut off with short hair, wearing blue robes, and singing "The Internationale"!
Just rush this scene, this anti. It's impossible to mess up!
Wang Zhongxiao is now also dressed up with the Jingwu Sect disciples below, but he didn't leave an inch, but shaved a big bald head - even a bald head, and no braids!
He is now the principal of the Jingwu Academy, so he naturally has to shave his head to be a "Wang bald head", this "bald" hairstyle and the identity of the principal are matched!
Of course, a fake braid still needs to be prepared, after all, he and Wang Fuchen have not officially played the anti-flag.
The reason why the anti-flag has not yet been raised is because the construction of the rebel team has not yet been finally completed - on the side of Jingwutang, there are more than 500 backbones of disciples and teachers (most of the teachers are apprentices and instructors of Beijing Jingwutang, all of whom have participated in small station training), although these apprentices are all well-founded, either from Wang Fuchen's army, or from the children of the big clans of Zhaoqing and Guangfu.
But their foundation is only in personal bravery, and leading troops to fight is not something that can be achieved by personal bravery. There's a lot of knowledge here!
And the disciples of Jingwutang are all trained as grassroots officers, according to Wang Zhongxiao's assumption, they should at least know how to bring a platoon of soldiers? You also need to know how to manage the head of the shed below, and how to take this platoon to fight in a team?
In addition, the establishment of the new army of the green battalion run by Wang Fuchen is not quite the same as that of the old green battalion. Therefore, even the "second generation of the Green Battalion", who grew up in the army, has to re-study in order to bring the soldiers of the new army of the Green Battalion.
The old-school Green Battalion was haphazard, unstandardized, and the basic combat units were small, usually a battalion of a few hundred men. And the number of people in each battalion is different, quite a lot! The level of training is even more uneven, and the equipment is not the same. This method of preparation was not based on fighting a war at all, but to prevent them from rebelling
And Wang Fuchen's new army of the Green Battalion was based on fighting from the beginning! Therefore, in accordance with Wang Zhongxiao's suggestion, the methods of "large-scale establishment" and "standardized establishment" were adopted.
The so-called large-scale establishment means that both the "cooperative" and the "standard" are set as basic combat units, so that in peacetime the "cooperative" and "standard" units can be used to conduct all kinds of training and exercises, and in wartime, the entire army of the association can be directly drawn onto the battlefield.
Because the various standards and battalions under the whole association are very familiar with each other, and they often train together, they are of course much better than the green battalion troops that are temporarily put together in a mess.
As for the standardization of the establishment, it is to set up six-level operational command units below the town level, such as cooperative, standard, battalion, team, platoon, and shed, and standardize their establishment methods.
In this way, it is easy for the small establishments within the large establishments at all levels to be exchanged with each other, and the officers can also be rotated among different units, and it is also easier to train.
But no matter how easy it is, without a few months of high-intensity training, even the second generation of the Green Battalion, who has heard and seen it in the army since childhood, will be difficult to lead a platoon of new troops. Moreover, the students of Jingwutang are not all leading infantry troops, but are divided into five sections: infantry, cavalry, artillery, engineering, and baggage. Among them, the four subjects of riding, artillery, engineering, and chariot are all "inner door classes", and one of the foot courses is also an "inner door class".
Finally, there is another point that is quite crucial, Wang Zhongxiao, the principal, took office in November, and it has only been more than a month now. The students of the "Jingwutang Phase II" (Jingwumen disciples in Beijing are counted as the first phase) have not yet established a deep teacher-student friendship!
So Principal Wang still has to get along with the big guys. At least have to talk to each student individually a few times, and then give each person a reward of one or twenty taels of pocket money to increase their favor, and let them know how much their principal cares about them, and they must have a great future after following the principal, right?
When this group of students are all gathered and they all graduate and are assigned to the team, Wang Zhongxiao can really control part (maybe most) of the Wang family's army.
At the same time, there are more than 300 "alternate masters" (including eighteen true legends) in the Restoration School, and they are also working overtime to study during this time!
In order to be in a hurry, Wang Zhongxiao also divided these "alternate masters" into two subjects, criminal names and Qian Gu, and for another two or three months, they would almost be able to take up their posts. At that time, they will go to the counties and Guangdong Customs to take up their posts in the name of the Governor Yamen's "Six Departments and Offices Dispatch Master".
In addition, the heads of the three shifts in each county and the anti-smuggling squad of the Guangdong Customs will be served by the children of the outer sects sent by the Jingwu Academy - the establishment of these squad leaders will also be hung in the pacesetter system of the governor's yamen.
In this way, the father and son of the Wang family can directly control the magistrates, masters and team leaders of more than a dozen counties, and their ability to control the grassroots political power is much stronger than the previous original system.
As soon as he thought that the big day of the "Guangdong Uprising" was getting closer and closer, and looked at a red flag embroidered with the four big characters of "The World is for the Public", slowly rising in the song of "Datong Song", and finally fluttering fiercely in the air, Wang Zhongxiao felt a kind of excitement in his heart.
When the singing of "Datong Song" came to an abrupt end, Wang Zhongxiao cleared his throat and was about to deliver an impassioned speech as before. At this time, his master, Zhou Chang, who had already joined the Heaven and Earth Society, suddenly walked over in a hurry, and got on a wooden platform where Wang Zhongxiao and Wang Zhongyi, Wang Zhongren, Wang Zhongxian, Li Jixiang, Wang Leiyong, Dai Zi, and Yu Haitao, the seven "masters" of each section of Jingwutang, were standing together, and came to Wang Zhongxiao's ear, and said in a low voice: "Headmaster, He Dabeard is here, and people have already arrived at the governor's yamen!" ”
Hearing "He Dabeard is coming", Wang Zhongxiao didn't have the heart to make a speech, he has been waiting for news from Xiangdao these days - if Xiangdao succeeds, he will have the opportunity to take Xiangshan, Xinhui, and Xinning, the subordinate counties of Guangzhou Prefecture, before officially pulling the flag!
So he opened his throat and shouted to the students standing below: "Students, you will have to take the big exam in a short time, study hard!" If you do well in the exam, this principal will be rewarded!
And the world is about to be chaotic, I wait for the martial artists, and the time for meritorious service is coming soon! Learn a little more now, and you will be able to make more contributions to the battlefield in the future! ”
Although there are only a few words, but to be honest, everyone is in good spirits when they hear it, and even the eyes of a few teachers standing on the wooden platform are bright!
After speaking, Wang Zhongxiao waved his hand and roared: "Disperse!" ”
When the students below heard him shout "Disperse", they shouted together: "Yes, Headmaster!" ”
Then they dispersed with a "boom" and rushed to their respective classes.
Seeing that the morale of his classmates was almost high, Wang Zhongxiao nodded with satisfaction and then turned around and instructed Wang Zhongyi, Wang Zhongren, Wang Zhongxian, Li Jixiang, Wang Leiyong, Dai Zi, Yu Haitao and others: "Everyone, we may send troops once after the year!" Hurry up, and all the disciples will be out of the army! ”
"Yes, Headmaster!"
"Hahaha, that's great! This is ironclad evidence that Hao Macao and Portuguese Yi colluded with Wu Sangui to rebel! Bearded, you've done a great job this time! Dad, we must give Big Hair a great credit! ”
In the second hall of the Yamen of the Governor of Liangguang, there was already a hearty laugh from President Wang.
The reason why he was so happy was because the evidence that He Tianran brought him this time was unexpectedly "iron" - this was the original copy of the draft "Portuguese-Wu Cooperation Treaty" signed by the Governor of Macao, the Acting Bishop of Macao and Wu Sanwei.
And this is still a draft that has already been initialed. It's not very grassy anymore!
The treaty was written in both Chinese and Latin, and was signed by Wu Sanwei, Luo Wenzao, and Shi Bozhi, as well as the "Seal of General Fengtian and Hu Dada" of Ao Bai, the "Seal of the Minister of Commerce of Nanyang" by Wu Sanwei, and the seals of the Governor of Macao and the Bishop of Macao.
"Headmaster, look at this." Yao Qisheng came to Wang Zhongxiao's side with a text in his hand at this time.
"It's." Wang Zhongxiao took it and opened it to take a look, "It's a contract for the purchase of red-clothed cannons, arquebuses and gunpowder!" ”
"Yes, this is a contract for the purchase of eighteen small cannons, three thousand arquebuses, and thirty thousand catties of black powder from Hao Ao a few months ago. You see, the signature on the contract. ”
"This Chinese is Luo Wenzao! Who is this string of Latin? It's so scribbled, I don't know it! ”
"It's a brute. It's not good to die. Get. Seva, which is Spellge's real name. You see, it's the same as the signature on this treaty. ”
"This is the name." Wang Fuchen was happy when he heard it, "It's another brute bull, and it's not a good death. This guy can't be picked up by his father, right? ”
"It can't be picked up," Wang Jizhen was also there, he shook his head and said, "I guess his mother didn't abide by women's morals and cuckolded his father!" ”
"Ahem. What nonsense? Kong Sizhen on the side had already sunk her face, "The words of foreign devils are different from ours, and they can't be explained by homophony." ”
"Yes, yes," Wang Jizhen hurriedly said with a smile, "Gege, don't I understand foreign language?" ”
"Don't talk about that!" Wang Fuchen waved his hand and stopped the discussion about Latin, "How is the second child going to use this ironclad evidence?" ”
"Impeachment, of course!" Wang Zhong is filial.
"Impeachment of whom?" Wang Fuchen asked.
"Impeachment. The Roman Catholic Church, the Kingdom of Portugal, the Portuguese Soldiers, the Bishop of Macao, and Nan Huairen! ”
Yao Qisheng was stunned: "What? Impeachment of the Roman Catholic Church and the President of the Kingdom of Portugal, the Roman Catholic Church and the Kingdom of Portugal are all foreign countries and are not under the control of the Great Qing Dynasty! ”
Wang Zhongxiao smiled: "But they have to take care of the affairs of the Qing Dynasty's territory, and the Roman Catholic Church preaches the religion in the territory of the Qing Dynasty, but they hand over the right to protect the religion of the Qing Dynasty to the King of Portugal!" Xizhi, do you think this matter can be impeached? ”
"Ah, and what's going on?"
"Of course!" Wang Zhongxiao sneered, "The bishops on the land of the Qing Dynasty have to be nominated by the king of Portugal. Kangxi, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, can't control it! In addition, the Bishop's Office of Hao Ao is also in charge of the Catholic churches on the territory of the Qing Dynasty, North Korea, and Annam! Can this matter be impeached?
And, Xizhi, do you know how this Portuguese king's patronage came about? ”
"How do I know that?"
"I know!" Wang Zhongxiao patted his chest.
"Where did it come from?" Wang Fuchen was also interested, "Say it quickly, don't sell it!" ”
"In the sixth year of the reign of the Ming Dynasty, Alexander VI, the great king of the Roman Church, announced that he would draw a line one or two thousand miles west of Cape Verde, a place in the Atlantic Ocean, and this line would belong to Spain to the west, and Portugal to the east, of course, Europe was not among them! However, the territory of our Daqing is in the east of this road, so it belongs to Portugal! ”
"What? This foreign devil King casually drew a line, and he assigned us here to Portugal? Why? Who is he? ”
"That is, how much power does this Catholic Dharma King have? Which mana is stronger, he or the Great Lama of the Snowy Land? ”
"Isn't that crazy?"
Several people in the hall didn't take what Wang Zhongxiao said too seriously, and it sounded outrageous!
"You guys don't take this as a joke!" Wang Zhongxiao shook his head, "I don't know how high the magic power of the Roman King is, but I know that the Spaniards began to conquer the New World after obtaining the decree of the Roman Law King, first destroying the Aztec Empire on the New World, and then destroying the Inca Empire, which are all big countries in the New World, of which the Inca Empire has a population of 10 million, and the north and south are more than 10,000 miles!"
Moreover, the Spaniards only used a few hundred people to invade these two countries! ”
"What? A few hundred people will destroy a country of thousands of miles? ”
"Is this true?"
"Impossible"
"Dick, are you kidding?"
Wang Fuchen, Wang Jizhen, Kong Sizhen, and Yao Qisheng all looked incredulous.
"Hehe," said Wang Zhongxiao, "have the Spaniards destroyed their kingdoms?" They slaughtered almost all of their tribes, and some of the rest became slaves of the Spaniards, mining silver for them. By the way, since the late Ming Dynasty, most of the silver flowing into China was dug up by the Spaniards in the homeland of the Aztecs and Incas!
And what is more sensational, do you know what is the excuse for the Spaniards to slaughter the Inca and Aztecs? ”
"What is it?"
"The kings of the Inca and Aztecs did not believe in their God! If you do not believe in God, you will be slaughtered. Tell me, should we be ruthless with the King of Rome, the King of Portugal, and the King of Nan Huairen? Wang Zhongxiao sneered, "I have to let Nan Huairen explain to the emperor. What was the real purpose of his coming to the Qing Dynasty? ”
"Headmaster," Yao Qisheng said with a frown, "I remember that those Catholic missionaries said that their Catholic teachings were similar to our Confucian teachings, and that they were all the same. ”
"Nonsense!" Wang Zhongxiao said, "Our country of Chinese etiquette will send troops to slaughter people because they don't believe in the way of Confucius and Mencius?" Does that make sense? ”
"Nope." Yao Qisheng shook his head, "This is really nothing!" He thought for a moment and asked, "Headmaster, according to your meaning, Nan Huairen and they came to China to treat us as Aztecs and Incas?" ”
Wang Zhongxiao smiled coldly: "Then the King of Rome and the King of Portugal have to explain it well!"
If they can't explain it, then they are ill-intentioned, since they are all ill-intentioned people, then it is natural to collude with Ao Bai and Wu Sangui to destroy the Qing Dynasty! Since they are going to die in the Qing Dynasty, we should take it back!
Only when we get back Haoao City can we truly master Guangdong's maritime trade, and Guangdong Customs can become our money bag! And we have mastered Guangdong's maritime trade, so that the merchants in Guangdong Province who eat sea trade rice can be used by us. Guangdong's maritime trade is not only silk, porcelain, sugar, but also Foshan's ironware. Foshan's weapons and Foshan's firearms!
And by taking the opportunity of using troops against Haoao, we can justifiably take the three counties of Xiangshan, Xinhui and Xinning. These three counties are worth a northern province! ”
It turns out that Wang Zhongxiao is really playing a big game of chess!
The impeachment of the Catholic Church and the Kingdom of Portugal was, on the one hand, to cut off Kangxi's access to advanced Western technology through the Catholic Church; On the one hand, it is to control Guangdong's maritime trade industry chain and the territory of Xiangshan, Xinhui and Xinning counties - this Guangdong's maritime trade industry chain not only has silk, porcelain, sugar, but also the famous Foshan iron industry!
Only by taking Foshan Iron Industry can the army of Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao get a steady supply of arms!
And controlling Guangdong's maritime trade can get them a huge amount of military spending.
The three counties of Xiangshan, Xinhui and Xinning have gathered a large number of people, and there is a large amount of abandoned land by the sea, which is a good place to start Juntian in Guangdong.
With arms, military spending, land and population, Wang Zhongxiao's great cause will have an incomparably stable rear.
All the people in these halls knew Wang Zhongxiao's vision and methods, and they all cast admiring glances at him, and Wang Zhongxiao also began to become the backbone of these people, he glanced at Zhou Chang: "Pei Gong, you come to draft the impeachment chapter!"
Xizhi, after Pei Gong's recital is written, you can copy a copy, and then go to Guangzhou with me! ”
"To Guangzhou?"
"That's right! I'm going to see King Pingnan and Zhu Futai! ”
