The people of Quanzhou were quite disappointed. Wang Guorui didn't give special treatment to the people of Quanzhou because he was born in Quanzhou, so they were quite disappointed. But they don't know that Wang Guorui actually dislikes the kind of thing where one person achieves the Tao and ascends to heaven. Any achievement must be achieved through his own efforts. Otherwise, he expects others to succeed and enjoys it by himself. Then this society will How impetuous has become? They all count on relying on others to succeed and then get rich by themselves. Isn't this encouraging getting something for nothing?

Many later generations think that the income of officials in the Ming Dynasty is low, but Wang Guorui does not think so at all. The income of officials in the Ming Dynasty is actually very high. The reason why Ming Dynasty officials kept saying that their income was low, and then it became a legal reason for corruption, is actually very absurd. Because the officials of the Ming Dynasty not only had to live on their own, but also had to support a large group of seven aunts and eight aunts, and even had to take several concubines by themselves, and then the expenses of various servants, this must not be enough? The income of officials in later generations is actually lower than that of officials in the Ming Dynasty, but why can they get something interesting? Are all officials of later generations corrupted? Obviously not, that's because they don't have any aunts and aunts to support, and they don't need to marry a few wives and concubines, and they don't need to support any servants. At most, they only have one or two nannies. Groups of servants? So of course this is enough? Therefore, the officials of the Ming Dynasty kept saying that they were poor and corrupt, which was completely a false proposition.

And Wang Guorui thought that he didn't need to support so many aunts and aunts, and even less necessary to support the folks in his hometown. Although Wang Guorui was born in Quanzhou, it doesn't mean he has much affection for Quanzhou. He was not from Quanzhou in his previous life, and he didn't have deep feelings for Quanzhou. In addition, he can't treat Quanzhou so favorably just because he was born in Quanzhou, so what is the difference between him and those feudal emperors? As a national leader, you should set your sights on the whole country. The whole country is your people, if you only treat people in your own hometown preferentially, wouldn't that be a very serious act of family all over the world?

Therefore, Wang Guorui did not give Quanzhou too much preferential treatment. That's a sum of 50,000 yuan, and it's just a one-off. For the entire Quanzhou people, it felt like begging for food, so those Quanzhou students also expressed their dissatisfaction, but there was nothing they could do.

However, when the municipalities directly under the central government and those places designated as investment areas were announced, the local people also felt a burst of excitement. The people in the Shanghai area heard that they were designated as a municipality directly under the central government, but the people in Shanghai County didn't care because they had more contact with the West. But other places are different. When Jiading, Qingpu and other counties were designated as new municipalities directly under the Central Government of Shanghai, they also felt very happy. Because everyone knows that the status of this municipality has improved, so everyone is happy! Especially now that they have received further attention, who wouldn't? You must know that any officials and people also hope that their local status will be higher, and most of them can get a higher status, and it sounds good to say it!

However, in the west, a war is breaking out in Shaanxi, and the army of the Yanhuang Empire under Wang Guorui is attacking the city of Xi'an, Shaanxi, and this is also the residence of the Manchu Qing governor of Shanxi and Gansu. And when Shaanxi Xi'an and Xianyang merged to form a municipality directly under the Central Government. The soldiers were also very excited.

"The emperor has ordered that Xi'an and Xianyang in Shaanxi merge to form a municipality directly under the central government. Anyone who conquers Xi'an and Xianyang in Shaanxi will calculate the credit according to conquering a province, so brothers and sisters, work hard! And, immediately convey to those Han army green camps in Xi'an and Xianyang Our order, this time is a good opportunity, if we can donate the city as soon as possible, then we can all give them the credit of giving a province. So I hope they seize this opportunity and don't miss it!"

Hearing that a big pie fell from the sky, this really made everyone dizzy. Originally, everyone was still planning to conquer Xi'an, and then formally recover Shaanxi and Gansu. This completes the great cause of the reunification of the motherland. But I didn't expect to drive all the way outside Xi'an, and then such a good news came. After Xi'an and Xianyang in Shaanxi were established as municipalities directly under the Central Government. Na Guorui asked the Military Commission to issue an order to encourage the soldiers to recover Shaanxi as soon as possible. So as long as they conquer Xi'an and Xianyang in Shaanxi, they can be calculated according to the military exploits of a province. Even for those who can seize the opportunity anyway, they can also donate a province as a credit for their surrender, so that the preferential treatment has suddenly increased by more than one! So when they heard the news, the morale of the soldiers was raised again, and they were ready to quickly take down the military exploits that fell from the sky for no reason.

Even the Green Battalion, the Eight Banners, and various defeated generals of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties in Xi'an City also began to discuss here.

"Everyone, I got the news that the emperor of the new court has also issued an order. As long as we can donate the city of Xi'an this time, it will be calculated according to the credit of a province! Now, our credit has increased tenfold for no reason. Ah, when the time comes, we will get even more preferential treatment. What do you think? I was hesitant at first, but now I plan to do it. As long as I do this vote, then I can go back and be a rich man. Such a good thing is actually heavenly The pie is lost, and it is calculated directly according to a province. This kind of good thing actually hit our heads. If we dare not go in and do it, what should we do? I have heard that the troops outside the new court have also received similar news. As long as Xi'an and Xianyang are taken down, they can also be counted according to the credit for conquering a province. I am afraid that their attack will be very crazy. Why should we leave our lives here? The Qing Dynasty has already perished. Why should we be buried with the Manchus?"

"That's right! The 100,000 troops outside are full of artillery fire. We have heard before that their artillery is very powerful. One of their divisions, that is, more than 10,000 troops, actually They all have seventy or eighty artillery pieces, and our town only has one artillery battalion, which is even missing. Where are our opponents?"

"Your new army is alright, our Green Battalion doesn't have a single gun at all, how can we fight?"

Even the leader of the Eight Banners is helpless, and they don't want to fight now. In fact, these Eight Banners children had worn down their blood in hundreds of years of stability. The Manchu Qing did not allow them to engage in other industries, and they lived on the banner salary every year. In fact, isn't this a tragedy for them? Although many people may envy their standard salary, in fact they all live a relatively hard life. Because the condition for them to get the standard salary to support them is that they cannot engage in any other industry, they cannot do business, they cannot do farming, they cannot work. Their only means of survival is to dawdle, relying on those flags to dawdle every day.

Even the Eight Banners soldiers in the Manchu Qing Dynasty were not all enlisted in the army, they had their own establishments, and if they wanted to be enlisted in the army, they had to take an exam. If you don't take the exam and pass the competition, you can't get the standard salary, and those who don't have the standard salary can only rely on those who have the standard salary to support them, and they can't engage in other industries. In this way, as their population increases, their life becomes more and more difficult. In fact, isn't the Eight Banners system a prison without walls? Although there are free meals, the price is the loss of freedom. For those low-level Eight Banners soldiers, it is actually a manifestation of losing their freedom. It's like some people often joke that there are free meals in prison, but the real situation is how many people are willing to go to prison?

And now Wang Guorui did not retaliate against the Manchus by massacre. Instead, he re-assigned them with professional skills and asked them to do other jobs. Although he lost his standard salary, he gained a more precious thing, that is freedom. Not many people are willing to give up their freedom for the two taels a month? Could it be that they are desperately fighting the new dynasty, just for the monthly salary of two taels of silver?

"I quit, Emperor Ende, did not take revenge on us banner people, and gave me a way out for you, so why should we have to die for the Qing court? Even if we insist, in the end it is just everyone The standard salary is less than two taels a month, but the price is the **** of generations~lightnovelpub.net~ Isn’t it enough for our ancestors? Even if we go to work casually, there are no less than seven or eight taels of silver every month, Why bother to lose your life for this mere two taels of silver, or to go free?"

And those other officers and soldiers also chose to stand on their side when they saw these bannermen, and then they all expressed their intention to revolt.

"Attack for me and attack Xi'an City, and the credit will be multiplied by ten!" An officer shouted immediately.

Wang Guorui's army began to attack the city of Xi'an, and soon conquered the city walls, and then the follow-up troops began to pour into Xi'an, preparing to gain more than ten times the military exploits that came out of thin air.

"Company commander, look, the white flag has been hung on the flagpole of the Shaanxi-Gansu Governor's Mansion. They surrendered? The Qing troops in those cities have already revolted anyway, and Shaanxi has been completely recovered by us. Next, we should recover Gansu. But the Governor-General of Shaanxi-Gansu Has been captured by us, then Gansu must be leaderless, then we can easily take it down!"

The company commander said speechlessly: "Damn it, they let them get ahead. Even without them dedicating the city, we could have taken it down. Now, our credit will be greatly discounted!" (To be completed continued.)
