Ming Dynasty: My Brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao

Chapter 182: Kneel down to welcome Master Wang, liqui

  Chapter 182 Kneeling to welcome Master Wang, liquidate immediately!

   Therefore, Zhu Changhao and his civil servants finally agreed on a plan to solve the internal financial problem, but this plan finally put the financial burden on the people.

   But also because the burden was laid on the people.

  So, Zhu Changhao's ministers can't feel the pressure, and they still have a good impression of him as King Lu, thinking that Zhu Changhao is really good-hearted and loves the people like a son.

   After all, even if you impose a one percent tax on the people, you have to be cautious. Can you count as loving the people like a child?

   "Your Highness! Tu Yiheng, the magistrate of Huaiqing appointed by Tianqi, has been captured by Cheng Xiaolian, a Wen County gentry, and his clan. Now he has come here to report to His Highness. Please show me how to deal with it!"

  At this time, the **** Lu Shaoguan next to Zhu Changhao came to report.

   Zhu Changhao said after hearing this: "Very good! I have heard about this Tu Yiheng again. He is also a treacherous official who has forgotten his ancestors and supported the reform! What do you think should be done with this person?"

   "Your Highness said so!"

   "This Tu Yiheng, like villains like Chen Zizhuang and Xia Yunyi, is a treacherous person!"

   "He even went to Xilin Academy to study as a dignified Jinshi in order to catch up with his relative Zhang Gui.

   "Furthermore, he was restored as the magistrate of Huaiqing because of this. Now that it has fallen into the hands of His Highness, it is also God's will, and God wants His Highness to do harm for the people!"

  Wang Yongguang spoke at this time.

   And speaking, he said again: "In my opinion, such traitorous villains should no longer be regarded as scholar-bureaucrats. They should sleep on their skin and eat their flesh, so that the rebels around the faint king will be terrified!"

  As soon as these reformists were mentioned, conservative civil servants like Wang Yongguang hated them.

   At this time, Mao Yujian also said: "That's right! When digging out their hearts, so that such a traitorous villain can be reincarnated even if he has no heart, it is better than having a black heart like now!"

Zhu Changhao: "It's up to you dear ministers! When Xia Yunyi is captured in the future, Gu will eat his flesh and drink his blood himself! Let him dare to propose such an evil policy of letting the vassal kings pay for food and work on errands! Pass the order of the king, Anyone who can capture Xia Yunyi will be offered a reward of 50,000 taels of silver!"

  …

   "Lu Wang's order has come down, and we want us to **** the dog officer Tu Yiheng to Beijing! Lu Wang and others will skin him and eat his flesh!"

  The county seat of Wen County, Huaiqing Prefecture.

  Cheng Jinyuan, the son of Juren Cheng Hushen, is reporting to Cheng Hushen the king's order of Lu Wang Zhu Changhao.

   After hearing this deeply, Cheng Hu couldn't help but stand up, and said excitedly: "It's exactly what I want! Such a wicked official and cruel official should be like this!"

   "Immediately, arrange for someone to put a heavy shackle on him, and **** him to Weihui to meet King Lu!"

   "The rest of the captured county magistrates and bosses who came out of some Xilin Academy were killed in front of all the townspeople in the county! Since they want to reform, they should be reformed first!"

"yes!"

  Cheng Jinyuan agreed and said: "In addition, His Royal Highness King Lu also ordered that anyone who captures the treacherous minister Xia Yunyi, Governor of Henan, will be rewarded with 50,000 taels of silver!"

   Cheng Hu listened deeply and said: "Even if I don't reward him, I will try my best to catch this heinous traitor!"

   "Fifty thousand taels! This King Lu really thinks highly of Xia."

  Outside Wen County.

  Xia Yunyi looked at the secret report from Xichang Xizuo about Lu Wang offering a reward of 50,000 taels of silver to arrest him, and just smiled lightly, then looked at the peasants and soldiers all over the mountains and plains behind him and gave an order:

   "Listen to my orders! As soon as the signal gun is fired, all attack the city!"

"After rushing in, according to the plan, those who should save people should save people, those who should occupy the city gate should occupy the city gate, and those who should arrest people should be arrested. After the task of each battalion is completed, the county government will report to the official, and then prepare for liquidation. Work with Fentian."

"yes!"

   After hearing this, Lu Cheng, who joined the army next to Xia Yunyi, said to the people behind: "Pass on Zhong Cheng's words."

   After a long time, Xia Yunyi set off the signal flare just as the day was dawning and the morning light was twilight.

  Suddenly, the peasants and soldiers all over the mountains and plains rushed towards Wen County.

   "Whoever wants to divide the land, follow me!"

   And rushing to the front is the defense of the peasant and barracks.

  These guards are all veterans who retired from the Armed Forces Academy due to injuries and illnesses. Now they are assigned to the localities to serve as instructors of peasants and soldiers, and as garrison officers during wartime, and lead the peasants and soldiers to maintain local order.

  But now because of King Lu's rebellion, Xia Yunyi organized these farmers and soldiers to recover the lost land together with his standard battalion.

However, in order to train the peasants and soldiers, Xia Yunyi basically did not use his own standard battalion regular soldiers to attack the city first, but let the peasants and soldiers go to attack the city first. At the same time, it was also to minimize the number of casualties in his standard battalion. When the battle is stalemate, he will let the standard battalion be dispatched, and then turn the tide of the battle.

  The guards of each battalion will shout when they attack the city and charge, saying that they want to divide the land and follow me.

  Because they discovered based on practical experience that these peasants and soldiers organized by refugees cared most about getting the land.

   Shouting to win and divide the land is the easiest way to boost morale, even better than giving out money.

  According to Zhang Gui's instruction, Xia Yunyi will liquidate the gentry and powerful gentry in the area when regaining a lost territory captured by the rebels.

  Basically, the land of most gentry tyrants will be confiscated, and these gentry tyrants and their slaves, Xiangyong, will also be liquidated and shot.

  In this way, a lot of land will be vacated, and these lands will be directly distributed to the refugees who joined the peasants and soldiers.

  According to Zhang Gui and Xia Yunyi, since the gentry would rather support the rebels than the New Deal reform, they can only organize the people to carry out the New Deal in a revolutionary way, that is, organize the people to use violence directly.

  The firearms used by Xia Yunyi's peasants and soldiers are not bad. They are all the ordnance provided by Xishan Industrial Division, such as turtledove guns, thunderbolts, cloth face armor, and small vehicle-mounted cannons. They are well-made and powerful.

   There is an entire industrial system behind their violence.

   Instead, the reactionary gentry who chose to support the rebels had their own armed forces, but there was no industrial system behind them to support them. Their arms and gunpowder were all purchased.

  The same is true for the rebels, most of whom are village warriors organized by the local gentry themselves.

   Only after accepting the appointment of Lu Wang Zhu Changhao, did he transform into a Jingnan army that eats the king's food.

  At this time, when the troops guarding Wen County encountered farmers and soldiers, they seemed very ineffective.

When Cheng Hushen's nephew Cheng Jincai, who was then the rebel thousand household officer in Wen County, heard the shouts of killing and rushed to the city wall, he saw a large number of peasants and soldiers climbing up through the ladder, holding a brand new Yan Lingdao was frantically poking the buttocks of his subordinate Xiangyong, and his fellow Xiangyongs were running towards him with inferior waist knives with many gaps.

   "Are the officers and soldiers here?"

Seeing this, Cheng Youcai asked a question, turned around and ran away, stretched his feet in a panic several times before successfully stepping on the stirrups, then got on the horse with the help of a servant beside him, and ran towards the Cheng family compound .

At this time, Cheng Hushen was escorting Tu Yiheng and two scholars from Xilin Academy who were appointed as Wenxian County Chancellor and Master Boguan in a prison cart to come out. thing?"

  Cheng Jincai hurriedly said: "Second brother, the officers and soldiers have come in! Take your uncle and run together."

"What?!"

   Cheng Hu turned pale with shock after hearing this deeply.

  At this time, the peasants and soldiers had rushed over.

  Seeing this, Cheng Hushen knelt on the ground in fright, and shouted tremblingly, "Welcome, Master Wang!"

  Cheng Jincai also knelt down.

Not long after, the peasants and soldiers took control of the entire Wen County, and Xia Yunyi came here with the standard battalion after daybreak. Seeing that Tu Yiheng had been beaten to pieces, and that the two people from Xilin Academy were also covered in bruises, he sank. He lowered his face and said, "Clear immediately!"
