Chapter 145: Volume, Manchuria is rolled up!

The key to the "broken window effect" is that there is a broken window first.

Yiling Prefecture is undoubtedly this broken window.

However, the Ming army took Songzi County, which was the only place to pass through Jingzhou, but it was not the "broken window effect" that played a role, but learned the previous lesson and became a true Taijun.

It's that Manchuria has to have the appearance of Manchuria.

But you can't really go all the way to the scourge all the way, and the wives of the people are separated, the mother cries for the children, and the husband cries for the wife.

So after setting off from Yiling, Wang Wu asked Xu Lin to lead dozens of people dressed as green battalion soldiers to go first.

When he encountered the towns and villages, he put on a fierce and vicious appearance, and tried his best to scare the people, and said that the general Mulima would bring Manchurian soldiers to arrive.

When the goal is achieved, the thunder must be loud and the rain will be small, and the people will not really suffer.

To put it bluntly, it is to create panic artificially.

The effect is very good.

Along the way, when the people heard that the Manchurian soldiers were going to attack their hometowns and cross the border, they were frightened and either hid in the countryside, mountains and forests, or ran to the county seat.

The former is wiser, the latter is dumber.

Because large-scale looting and massacres generally take place in cities.

The more people there are, the more unlucky they are.

Fueled by the fire, the news of the imminent arrival of Manchurian soldiers spread quickly throughout the county of Songzi as if they had grown wings.

By the time the Ming army under the banner of Manchuria arrived at the city of Songzi, the county commander Wei had already taken the gentry in the city to greet him at the city gate.

Wang Wu was a little embarrassed.

Without it, it's too welcoming.

Not to mention good wine and good food, there is money to take.

In order to prevent the Manchurian soldiers from harming the people in the city, or to say less harm, the Wei County Order not only took out all the 5,000 taels of the county government's "working capital", but also called on the gentry in the city to donate a few thousand taels to make up enough 10,000 taels for the military needs of the soldiers.

If there are daughters in the family and good-looking daughters-in-law, they can hide and run away if they can.

The people's hearts were panicked, and they were really afraid of the Manchurian catastrophe in the past.

Even the girls of the only kiln family in the county were mobilized by the people of the county government in turn, asking them to come out at a critical time to save the eldest girls and little daughters-in-law in the county.

There are only fewer meat and more monks, and I am afraid that I will not be able to withstand it.

But if you can't stand it, you have to top it!

In short, all the orders that can be done have been done.

Now I hope that the Manchurian soldiers can see that the people are all the people of the Qing Dynasty, and there will be less harm.

The enthusiasm of Wei County Order, Wang Wu naturally smiled.

I didn't talk at all during the banquet, just eating.

After he was full of wine and food, he brought the puzzled Wei County Order to General Jingxi.

"This is the Great General?"

Looking at Mu Lima on the stretcher, and then at the group of Manchurian prisoners who were soaking in white soup, Wei Xian Ling suddenly felt that the world was spinning.

Qian Daotai stepped forward and took this officialdom junior, who could no longer stand, to do the work alone.

The workflow is simple.

It is to ask the Wei County Order if he is willing to write a letter of repentance and a letter of guarantee.

If you are willing, then the Manchurian soldiers who enter the city today are still Manchurian soldiers, and if you are unwilling, the Manchurian soldiers will be gorgeously transformed into tomorrow's soldiers on the spot.

"Write it, the previous ones are all written, and you are not the only one. To put it mildly, everyone is a thief, no one is a thief, do you want the old man to tell you this truth? ”

Qian Daotai was in a hurry, and under some coercion and temptation, Wei County Ling had no choice but to sign and press his fingerprint.

Looking at the two important documents that were put away by others, the county magistrate only felt like he had signed a deed of sale, and he was sad and regretful.

He didn't want that either.

But who could have known that the Manchurian soldiers who swaggered over this way were not Manchurians.

After crying and mourning, he could only comfort himself that if the prefect and prefect in front of him were signed, then it seemed that he would not be a magistrate.

"Let me tell you about the process, if you want to do good deeds in the future, we will keep a red account for you. If you want to do something bad, it's a black account! There are too many black accounts, and we have to hand in the things you wrote for you, and you know what the consequences are. ”

While speaking, Qian Daotai opened the account book, first took up a pen and wrote the name of Wei County's order, and then dotted a dot with red ink behind his name.

Today, Wei County ordered the reception of the Ming army to be meritorious, and the merit was recorded once, so it got a red dot.

If you do something bad, write a black spot.

It has always been red dots, or there are more red dots than black dots, and Nawei County will naturally be able to keep this official safely.

But there are more black dots than red dots, so the Ming army naturally wants to expose and report him to the Qing Dynasty for collaborating with the enemy.

What are the things that are meritorious?

It is to take the initiative to send a letter to the Ming army, prevent the Qing army's sabotage actions, protect the anti-Qing army and people, release the captives, do not bully the people, and put the guns into the sky during the war, or organize the personnel to surrender to the truth.

What are the things that are sinful?

Those who extort, burn, kill, loot, bully the people, lead the way for the Qing army, oppose the Ming army, and sabotage the anti-Qing action are all guilty.

This is a means that Wang Wu pondered two days ago in light of the "broken window effect" how to effectively survive and develop in enemy-occupied areas.

Since the current general trend is in the Qing Dynasty, and the Ming army, which is still very weak, cannot attack cities and seize land to expand the base area, then Wang Wu cannot engage in black and white, that is, all the personnel who were officials in the Qing Dynasty are regarded as enemies.

However, he also hoped that the officials of Huguang could give some help to the Ming army, so that he would not be surrounded and suppressed by the Qing army in a short period of time, so it was necessary to treat them differently and grasp them with both hands.

Diehards, of course, have to be killed.

Non-die-hard elements were held out through letters of repentance and guarantees, and at the same time, these officials were also allowed to privately provide convenience for the Ming army.

Don't ask for much help, as long as you can drag the Qing army back.

It is equivalent to maintaining the day and night of the president.

At present, the file is beginning to be filed, a Zhizhou, a Zhixian, Wang Wu hopes that this list can continue to expand with the eastward advance of the Ming army.

After leaving Songzi, the Ming army continued eastward, targeting Jingzhou.

I had the impression that there seemed to be a city full of people in Jingzhou, but after Wang Wu asked Qian Daotai, he was told that there was none.

After sorting out the history of his previous life, Wang Wu guessed that this Jingzhou city might have been established after the rebellion of the three feudatories.

It's better not to have a full city, and it's a hassle if there is.

After all, the Ming army that advanced eastward now has no ability to attack fortifications.

Passing through a place called Zhuan City, Wang Wu felt that the terrain of this place was good, which was conducive to ambushes.

After thinking about it, he asked Zhao Jinzhong and them to lead the team to Jingzhou first, and he took 2,000 people to set up an ambush in Zhuan City to see if he could catch a big fish.

As a result, the fish was really caught in one.

But it's not a big fish, it's a small fish.

And they are still acquaintances.

Looking at the deputy commander of Tu who was captured again, Wang Wu was really angry: "No, I let you go, what are you chasing!" ”

Turge also looked helpless: "General, it's not that I have to chase, it's Lahada and Erzhu who have to chase." ”

"Why are they chasing?"

Wang Wuqi, these two people were also let go by him!

Turg looked around, lowered his voice and said, "They don't want the general to release people again." ”
