Cheng Shijie didn't take it to heart what Zhou Ning said, in Zhou Ning's cognition, Emperor Chongzhen is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and the people want it.

Once Emperor Chongzhen returns to the capital, unexpected changes will definitely occur. But the problem is that in Cheng Shijie's understanding, there are more than 200,000 Ning Navy officers and soldiers in the nine brigades, this is Cheng Shijie's confidence, and whatever the people want, they can't resist the hard fists.

Cheng Shijie did not enter Beijing City immediately, he also had some bad taste, for the rebellious ministers and thieves in the capital, let them kneel for a while, young and strong laborers, kneel for a while will not die, and they will not be injured, but those old guys who are weak and sick will let them suffer a little crime.

Cheng Shijie is also thinking about a problem, the Xiaoice River period, in fact, did not end immediately after the founding of the Qing Dynasty, in fact, this period, which lasted until the eighteenth century, especially the fifty years after the fall of the Ming Dynasty was one of the coldest periods in the entire Xiaoice River time.

According to historical records, in November of the solar calendar in 1654 (the eleventh year of Shunzhi), the ice thickness of the Wujiang Canal was more than three feet, and from Wujiang to Jiaxing, it took a strong man to dig the ice and move forward 3-4 kilometers every day. The South Canal was frozen in November of the solar calendar, which is rare in history, which shows the cold weather in the south of the Yangtze River during the Shunzhi period. In addition, at that time, there were also records of the Yangtze River frozen.

From the first confrontation between the two sides in Fushun in 1618 to the fall of the Zheng regime of the Ming Dynasty in 1683, the Manchu Qing and the Ming Dynasty fought for more than 56 years, during which there were countless large battles and small battles, both in the plains and wilderness, and in the fierce battles under the fortified cities.

The fall of the Ming Dynasty is indeed somewhat wronged, but it should be clear that the fall of the Ming Dynasty mainly stemmed from man-made disasters, which can also be said to be an inevitability of history. Political decay, land annexation, natural and man-made disasters...... It seems that the fall of the Ming Dynasty was just a natural result!

Now Cheng Shijie wants to clean up this mess, he must make a choice, the Manchu Qing can massacre the Han people, engage in ethnic antagonism, and use bloody means to massacre, so as to survive the long Xiaoice period.

During the Shunzhi period, the population was only 70 million, and it was not until the sixth year of Qianlong that the population increased to 140 million, that is, from the beginning of the Qing Dynasty to the founding of the country, it took nearly 100 years to increase the population by 70 million. However, from 140 million, to the 55th year of Qianlong, that is, in less than 50 years, the population exceeded 300 million.

It is enough to see the influence of the Xiaoice River weather people across the country.

Cheng Shijie had to think about this problem, when he was in Liaodong, Cheng Shijie found that the weather was cold, although Liaodong had a large amount of available arable land, however, it was impossible to carry out large-scale tuning, the only way was to move the agricultural industry south, and put grain cultivation in Luzon and the Indochina Peninsula, and even the two regions would snow in the case, the Jianghuai region could barely survive.

What's more, there is a shortage of water in Beizhili, especially in the area of Beijing and Tianjin! Not only is there a shortage of surrounding states and counties, but even the capital is also very short, and it is difficult to drink water, let alone farming! If you want to get the people in the Gyeonggi area out of poverty, you must let the people have enough water to irrigate their crops, otherwise it will be useless to avoid taxes for many years, and those who should be poor will still have to be poor!

Thinking of this, Cheng Shijie decided to move the population of the north further south, from now on, to Luzon and the Indochina Peninsula to start moving south, so that the people of the Ming Dynasty can go to the Red River Plain of the Indochina Peninsula to farm, where the rain is abundant, the land is fertile, and the products are abundant.

Thinking of this, Cheng Shijie began to enter Beijing.

Cheng Shijie saw the soldiers of the Beijing camp kneeling on the ground, as well as some Han army banners and Guanning troops, these people and horses were twenty or thirty thousand people.

In fact, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty and generals at all levels all looked at Cheng Shijie, hoping that Cheng Shijie could be gracious and pardon their crimes, but they thought too much.

Cheng Shijie looked at Zhou Ning and said: "Let's start with these soft bones, ordinary soldiers serve five years of hard labor, generals below the rank of general range from five to fifteen years, and generals and deputy generals can be reduced for fifteen to twenty years. ”

"The last general understands, it's just their family?"

"Send them to Luzon for punishment and serve as the Tuntian Army!"

Seeing that Cheng Shijie did not kill anyone, the ministers of civil and military affairs breathed a sigh of relief, in their expectations, Cheng Shijie had to cut off at least a few thousand heads to finish, but they didn't expect that it was just hard labor. However, throwing all the more than 30,000 surrendered soldiers who surrendered to the city to serve hard labor and hard work sent an unusually strong signal.

Since the middle and late Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty until now, the policy of tolerance for warlords has come to an end, and whoever dares to rebel as unscrupulously as before, what awaits them will be extremely severe punishment!

Cheng Shijie continued: "Starting from the Beiping Metropolitan Division and the Northern Parallel Division, including the Nine-Sided Army, those who surrender to Jiannu will be dealt with in this way. ”

Cheng Shijie's first knife into Beijing, slashed at the army in Gyeonggi, for the guards, Cheng Shijie tried to reorganize at first, but the result was not good, but there was an accident in which the Sanhe arsenal was bombed, which can give Cheng Shijie a wake-up call.

Daming's guards are almost rotten, and in the face of this group of veterans, let them go to the battlefield again, they may not get any moths out.

"And if you surrender to us directly?"

"Soldiers don't need to be punished for labor reform, they are directly reorganized into 100 households in tuntian or 100 households in engineering, and they migrate to Dayuan and Luzon in the same way!"

Hearing this, Zhou Ning was a little curious: "Dashuai, since then, there is no one in Beizhili!" ”

"The weather is getting colder and colder, and the north is not suitable for living in the first place!"

Cheng Shijie sighed and said: "From the first year of Chongzhen to the present, nearly ten years, which year can Beizhili be able to adjust the wind and rain?" The era we are in now belongs to the period of the Xiaoice River! ”

Cheng Shijie explained to Zhou Ning what the Xiaoice River period was, the first Xiaoice River period in Chinese history was from the end of the Yin Shang to the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the second was from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Western Jin Dynasty, and the third year was from the end of the Tang Dynasty to the beginning of the Northern Song Dynasty. Now it's the fourth time.

In later generations, global warming often raises a problem, but also caused global panic, in fact, temperature rise or fall is cyclical, in Cheng Shijie's view, in the next 30 to 50 years, the world will have the fifth Xiaoice period, that period, the worry is not about the temperature rise, but the temperature decrease.

It is still unknown whether there will be an accident like the movie "The Day After Tomorrow", but Beijing can have floods, and Zhuozhou can actually have a water depth of 12 meters at the peak of the flood, which is something that would have been expected?

As Cheng Shijie entered the city, the clouds of war finally dissipated, and the sun shone on the city of Beijing, bringing a trace of warmth.

The residents of Beijing City looked sluggish, prostrate on both sides of the avenue, allowing the army to drive through the middle of the avenue, and the smoke and dust stirred up sprinkled on their bodies, and they did not dare to raise their heads. Most of them have shaved their hair, and although Huang Taiji often compulsorily opens warehouses to release grain, these residents are still yellow-skinned, vegetable-faced, dull-looking, frightened and confused, and it is obvious that their lives are not easy during this period of foreign domination.

Especially the braid on the head, which could barely fill the stomach of a few members of their family a few days ago, has now become a life-urging charm, and they are trembling all over, and they all feel that a great disaster is coming.

With Cheng Shijie's first slash to the surrendering army, this shows that the Ming Empire will not let go of the betrayer!

Cheng Shijie did not take a carriage, nor did he ride a horse, but walked into the city of Beijing, he looked at the trembling people, he could only sigh, Cheng Shijie walked to a child who knelt on the ground and stared at them curiously with a pair of big round eyes.

Cheng Shijie squatted down and touched his head: "Little guy, why do you want to keep braids?" ”

The child is not afraid of him at all, too, children of this age don't know what it means to be afraid. He sucked his fingers, blinked his eyes, and said, "Because we're hungry." ”

The child's parents were even more frightened, and moved forward to cover the child's mouth, but Cheng Shijie stopped: "Why are you hungry?" ”

The child said, "Because there is nothing to eat!" ”

Cheng Shijie felt a little stupid, and actually asked a child this question, in fact, what happened in Beijing, Cheng Shijie knew very well that the government didn't care about the life or death of ordinary people, and Huang Taiji was just urging and coercing officials and gentry to pay food and donations.

Merchants also took the opportunity to raise the price of grain, and at its peak, that is, now, the price of grain in Beijing has risen to the sky, and each bucket of grain requires twenty taels of silver.

This is a record that often appears in the history books, and now this record has been broken, Huang Taiji used grain to assimilate the people of Gyeonggi, and the way he took was the same as Cheng Shijie in Nanyang, slightly different is that Huang Taiji let the people shave their hair, only by shaving their hair, can they get cheap food, and the people can only try their best to live, and they can't starve to death.

Of course, in the Nanyang area, Cheng Shijie's approach is to speak Chinese, wear Hanfu, and practice Chinese customs, for example, people who can speak Chinese may be refunded after collecting taxes. Mid-Autumn Festival, daily necessities such as rice, flour and oil will be very cheap, half lower than the market price, you can buy it in Hanfu, you can also eat it yourself, but it can't be used to make profits, the same is true for other festivals during the Spring Festival, if you don't wear Hanfu, you will be fined ten times after being reported,

Cheng Shijie is turning Hu into Han, and Huang Taiji is turning Han into Hu, this is the most successful thing that Huang Taiji has done, from 221 BC, Qin Shi Huang unified the world, ending the slave society. In the later periods, there were four periods in China that were slave societies.

The first was the Wuhu Chaohua, in which Han women suffered the most, basically "being raped at night and used as food during the day, the second time, the Jin Kingdom (1115-1234), and the third time, the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368).

For the Yuan Dynasty, many people were most impressed by the "fourth-class people" system. In fact, the Yuan Dynasty belonged to the standard "slavery"! The rule of the Yuan Dynasty implemented the feudal system of lords and the system of slavery, which is a typical feature of slave society! Objectively speaking, the "expulsion" of the Yuan Dynasty is a slave, which is very common, and the scale of the "human market" in the Yuan Dynasty is very large!

In this day and age, there are two dynasties that cannot be criticized, namely: the Yuan Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty! Compared with the Yuan Dynasty, once the "bad words" of the Qing Dynasty were said, the backlash was greater. However, judging from historical reality, the Qing Dynasty was indeed a slave dynasty. The evidence is Baoyi, Aha, slave raiding wars, slave markets and trade, and the plundered Han people were bought and sold at will.

Cheng Shijie did not blame these people, he was silent for a long time, but remembered an incident that happened in later generations, a couple met gangsters at night, the husband faced the gangsters, turned around and ran, the wife did not run away, what was that, and then the husband immediately divorced his wife, and blamed all the crimes on his wife, thinking that his wife was dirty.

Cheng Shijie touched the child's head and said, "Go back and cut off the braids and keep the original sideburns, it's ugly." ”

Cheng Shijie looked at Sun Zhili behind him and said: "The law will be issued immediately, the price of grain and salt will be the same as that of Liaodong, and those who keep the whip will not sell them a grain of grain!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the people kneeling on the ground were stunned.

"Changyu!"

"The last general!"

"Immediately send troops to take over all the granaries, and then open the warehouses to release grain, and make sure that the people of Gyeonggi have at least three days' food for every household!"

Cheng Shijie guessed that there must not be much food in the capital, but the more than 200,000 troops of the Ning Navy only had half a month's food, if the military food was used to supply the people of the city, three days was the limit, but the problem was not big, it was nothing more than more transportation from the rear, for this battle, Cheng Shijie prepared more than 32 million stone of grain in Liaodong, and there were more in Luzon.

Feeding the people of Gyeonggi is not a big problem.

Then Cheng Shijie ordered: "It is strictly forbidden for officers and soldiers to trespass into people's houses and harm the people in the name of searching for fugitives. Those who shave their hair and keep braids are not guilty, those who don't like this hairstyle can cut it off as soon as possible, and those who like it can continue to keep it, and the court will not pursue it. ”

"Not pursued?"

"That's right, Ben Shuai's food won't be sold to them, they have a way to live, and Ben Shuai can't take care of it!"

Sun Zhili looked at the officials all over the ground suspiciously: "They are not in a hurry! ”

With Cheng Shijie's order, the soldiers of the Ning Navy quickly took over the granaries in the city, but as Cheng Shijie expected, the grain of the government only existed on the books, and almost all of the granaries had no food, or only a very small part. There will certainly be plenty of grain in a private granary.

However, Cheng Shijie did not send troops to rob the grain of these grain merchants, anyway, there is food for the Ning Navy.

With Cheng Shijie's order issued, the originally lifeless city of Beijing suddenly quarreled as if it was boiling, and countless people who thought that even if they didn't die, they would have to lose three layers of skin, all cried with joy, and the whole family hugged together and cried bitterly.

The clever one immediately found a pair of scissors and clicked to cut the braids, although Cheng Shijie said that the court would not pursue it, and those who like this hairstyle can keep it, but ...... The ghost likes this ugly hairstyle, it looks awkward, and it is comfortable to cut it off early!

After the soldiers of the Ning Navy pulled out a cart of grain to distribute it on the street, the entire capital was almost crazy, and the cry of "Long live my emperor" resounded all night!

If Chongzhen is present, he must be like a dead heart, and he will rush at the enthusiasm of the common people, even if he comes back with thousands of troops and horses, don't think of entering this Beijing city, the people don't recognize him now!

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen and the remnants of the Northern Expeditionary Army also arrived in the north of Shuntianfukou, and Li Xin came to the front of the army with more than a dozen Ning naval soldiers.

"Where is the champion?"

"You ......"

"I, Li Xin, a staff officer of the General Staff of the Ning Navy, am on the order of Cheng Shuai to meet the champion Hou!"

At this time, Li Xin had to use the banner of Cheng Shijie, otherwise, he would not have seen Lu Xiangsheng at all. (End of chapter)
