Chapter 551
Obviously, when Galdan Celing just came back, he had already thought about letting Da Ce Ling Dunduo Buduo make first-hand preparations, but now with Ce Wang's reluctance to see Allah Bu Tantu, Da Ce Ling Dunduo Bu's cronies lurking outside the account became the key to turning the situation around.

On the grassland, betrayal and loyalty seem to be taken for granted, and there is no reason to talk about it.

When Dace Lingdun Duobu successfully controlled the situation around the entire commander-in-chief, Galdan Celing naturally began to coerce and lure others, and under his various means, only a few people left... Ming Qinwei didn't seem to show the courage he should have, but chose to put down the scimitar in his hand and surrendered to Galdan Celing's side.

It can be said that the current situation is almost completely unfavorable to Cewang Allah Butan, but this prairie hero doesn't seem to have any ideas to stop or change, just looking at his son quietly, his eyes are full of relief.

"Kouwu, you've finally grown up!"

Tse Wang Alabatan's expression showed deep appreciation, and then he tried to sit still and said softly: "Come on, kill me, the whole Zhungeer is yours!"

The big plan Ling Dunduobu on the side then pulled out the scimitar on his waist, ready to step forward eagerly, and cut off this scheming head, completely laying the foundation for the overall situation.

But before he could go out, Galdan Celing stopped him. The prince in his early 30s seemed not quite used to the situation in front of him in which he was instigating Allah Butan.

"Erzhige, I can't kill you." Galdan Celing thought for a long time, and finally shook his head.

"Why? Kill me, and you will be able to become a profuse sweat? What are you hesitating about?"

Cewang Allah Butan seemed very disappointed. With a look of anger on his face, he looked at his proud son and asked again: "Do you still want to be a sweat?"

Galdan Celing raised his head, and he said firmly and loudly: "I think, Ezhige, my child dreams of becoming a man like Ezhige, the Khan of my Zhungeer tribe!"

Tsewang Allah Butan laughed, and he coughed a few times while laughing, "Kuowu, since you were just born, Ezhige knew that you were an eagle on the grassland, and you were destined to be my heir in the future. But you are still too young and too immature to lead the Jungar Khanate to survive."

Speaking of this, Cewang Alabatan's face calmed down slightly, and he said softly: "Ezhige understands that if you want to let you grow up smoothly, it will only harm you completely, so Ezhige will be desperate The ground persecutes you, just like boiling an eagle, makes you feel hungry and cold, and makes you feel that there are dangers everywhere, until you start to learn to intrigue and intrigue, you will know that you have grown up."

"Eight Straight Leather"

There was a hint of shock on Galdan Celing's face. He never thought that in the past few decades, Cewang Allah Butan would have such painstaking efforts.

Cewang Allab looked frankly at Galdan Celing, his pale hair trembling slightly, "Kuowu, now you have done a good job, you can lead the tribe to survive, you can lead the Jungar Khan country to survive. Right now you only have one thing left, and that is to kill me, after you kill me, you will be able to become King Khan."

"Don't worry, after you kill me, little Cering will be loyal to you, and the entire Jungar Khanate will be loyal to you. There is only one thing you have to do, and that is to complete the great cause of unifying Mongolia and become the new Genghis Khan!"

"Eight Straight Leather"

"Do it! Don't hesitate any longer."

Galdan Celing's lips trembled slightly, and he slowly took the long knife handed over by the guard beside him, and walked forward, he walked step by step, but recalled scenes from his childhood in his mind At the beginning, Cewang Allah Butan was still under the threat of his uncle Galdan, took himself to hide in Tibet, and even had to fight with the tribe
However, time flies, decades have passed, and my father is getting old. He is teaching himself the last lesson in his own way. It seems that his time is really coming
Following a cold light, Galdan Celing took over the King Khan's letter dripping with blood and became the new generation of Zhungeer Khan.And at this moment, everyone knelt down, they looked at Galdan Ce Ling and shouted long live, they waved the scimitar in their hands, as if celebrating the appearance of the new Great Khan.

When Galdan Tse Ling took complete control of the entire Zhungeer army, he quickly led the army to converge in the direction of the little Cering Dunduobu. It was not because he thought that Tse Wang Alabutan would deceive him before he died. , but for Galdan Celing at this time, he will no longer trust anyone, and naturally he will not place his hopes in the other party's hands.

In just half a month, Galdan Celing's army arrived at the front line, and the little Cering Dunduobu also respectfully knelt in front of Galdan Celing, and handed over his Military power, and after reaching this step, Galdan Celing can be considered to have completely gathered power, and cast his sights on the Tushetu Khanate, which only occupies the last small piece of land.

bring it on!Er Zhige’s unfinished great cause, let me do it myself!
The billowing gunpowder smoke in Mobei can only affect the vast grassland at best, but in today's inland, it is completely different, and the long-lost peace has finally come.

Since Ning Chu expelled the Qing court, he has become the co-lord of the world. Although the launch of various new policies has invisibly lightened people's various burdens, the rise of industry and commerce has brought some other changes.

With the arrival of May, the folks have also ushered in the five-year reform period. The so-called Shangbusi is the summer tax that the government will collect. It usually starts in May and ends at the end of August.

There is a village in the countryside of Tongcheng, called Dujiazhuang. At this time, many farmers who have just finished their farm work are busy chatting together, enjoying a rare moment of rest in summer, of course they are chatting When the time comes, it will naturally talk about the imminent tax payment.

A wrinkled farmer was smoking a hookah pipe in his mouth, "Hey, listen to my elder nephew who can read and write. It's said in the newspaper that this year's agricultural tax will increase again." Cut some down!"

"That's right, the reign of the Holy Son of Heaven has made our peasants' lives better and better. In other words, exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes were abolished the year before last, and the grain tax was abolished the year before last. After last year's reform, we paid taxes in full accordance with the central bank's regulations. Settling with silver dollars and copper dollars is another layer of exploitation.”

The farmer next to him was younger, and he seemed to be quite clever. He wriggled his fingers and calculated, "Who would have thought of such a good life before the establishment of the Great Chu? Not to mention those miscellaneous sects, just to make money In exchange for money, I don’t know how many people have been exploited!”

The words of the farmer were quickly recognized by other people around, because they all witnessed with their own eyes that in just a few years, the burden on farmers was almost visible to the naked eye, and such a change was enough for them to celebrate up.

In the past in the Qing Dynasty, after a year of hard work, farmers not only had to pay a large amount of land tax, but also had to pay a lot of money for miscellaneous pies and fire consumption. Zhengxiang, in addition to this, during the busy and busy times of the year, the grain has to be exchanged for silver coins. Generally, at this time, grain is cheap and money is expensive, especially silver is more expensive than copper coins, so that it is called Two ways were exploited.

While everyone was talking enthusiastically, another grey-haired old farmer joined in the chat. He did not start chatting after squatting on the ground like other farmers, but bowed his hands towards the sky.

"If you want to say that the Holy Son of Heaven is still in power! Do you know? Our life is beautiful, but the people in the north are different. My distant house in Shandong sent a letter saying that there was a severe drought in the north last year. Thanks to His Majesty, otherwise they would all starve to death!"

Everyone nodded. They all knew that the old man had some relatives in Shandong, and he had heard of the severe drought in the north to some extent, but this was all heard after all, and no one knew what was going on. Listen carefully.

The gray-haired old man said with emotion: "I told you from afar that there was a shortage of food in the north, but the damned Tartars still searched for the people's stock to supply them with the Eight Banners. As a result, there was a severe drought in the north last year, and there were no grains everywhere. Many people lost their way of life. Thanks to His Majesty, who led the army to suppress the Qing soldiers in the north, and sent people to bring hundreds of boats of grain from the south, and gave them to the people. Otherwise, my distant house would have starved to death long ago! "

Speaking of which, after the Fuhan army captured the north, it happened to catch up with a drought in the north. Fortunately, the emperor had already issued a decree for tax exemption, and also allocated a large amount of grain from Huguang and Jiangnan to the north. Only then did a possible catastrophe be avoided.

In the process of helping the victims this time, although Ning Chu was a new government, his organization ability in the disaster relief far surpassed that of the Qing court at the time, so it greatly reaped the hearts of the people. Shengming, the benevolence of Great Chu.

"Yes, yes, it is still His Majesty's benevolence!"

The people around were all moved, and imitated the way the old man clasped his hands before, singing praises to Emperor Ning who had never seen him before. After they had complimented him for a long time, someone started to speak again.

"Hey, old Mr. Chen, I heard that your kid is coming back from the army? Did he make a mistake?"

An old man approached, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, and asked the grey-haired old farmer. When the people around him suddenly heard such explosive news, they stopped talking immediately, waiting to see the old man's joke.

For these loyal farmers, jealousy towards others is also inevitable, especially when old Chen often flaunts his son who served as a soldier in the Fuhan Army, which has aroused the jealousy of many people .

Seeing the eyes of the people around him, the old farmer named Old Chen curled his lips and said with a sneer, "Hmph, yes, my dog ​​is going to be discharged from the army—but he didn't make a mistake in the army." , but received an order written by His Majesty to return to our Tongcheng in the future to do the inspection from the ninth rank!"

I'll be good!Everyone was taken aback immediately, the old man was holding his breath so quietly, they were a little panicked at once, wouldn't they offend him just now?
It turns out that after the end of the Northern Expedition, the current Fuhan Army has made many adjustments to the army, especially those veterans and disabled soldiers who have passed the age limit, and they are gradually ushering in the retirement period. They all gradually returned to their hometown under the will of the police, and began to take up some small official positions such as patrol inspectors.

Don't underestimate an inspector position. Even the smallest township inspector is an official position from the ninth rank. These small officials all over Ningchu are officially included in the bureaucratic system of Ningchu. He is a serious emperor's food, and he is also born with a gun, so the deterrent effect on the rural people is even greater.

Since the reform of Ningchu's imperial examination system and official system, not only the central court has changed, but local officials have also undergone great changes, especially a large number of small officials have entered the official establishment of the court. Of course, these people The ranks of the officials are also the lowest from the ninth rank, but their income has increased a lot compared to before, so they are also much cleaner than the officials in the past.

Due to the large-scale expansion of the official system at the county and township level and below, the current financial pressure of Ningchu has doubled. According to the overall central financial planning of Ningchu, after the merger of the northern provinces, the administrative expenditure has reached 800 million. Compared with the previous 800 million silver dollars, the silver dollar has more than tripled.

Of course, in the minds of today's farmers, they naturally prefer the current model, because compared with the situation where the gentry ruled the countryside in the past, it is easier for people to accept that the government directly penetrates into the countryside.

"The current gentlemen are much more friendly than in the past. I heard that there is now a public opinion assessment standard. If the public opinion is too low, the gentlemen will not be stable as officials. But compared to the past, the current gentlemen It’s a case of continuous cases, which makes people a little inexplicable.”

Old Mr. Chen seemed to like to talk about these 'confidential' news. He looked at the crowd and said with a smile: "I heard that the current masters are in charge of the people's economy, and are only responsible for handling local affairs. As for the power to judge cases, it seems that all belong to Dali. There is a Dali Temple in our county, and there are quite a few people who go to beat the drums every day!"

"Hey, who is so courageous? Really dare to beat the drums?" The others clicked their tongues suddenly. This lawsuit cannot be shaken off. How could someone take the initiative to tell it?

Old Mr. Chen chuckled, and said: "I heard that now there are all kinds of people who beat the drums, such as those who divide the property, those who divide the land, and those who have disputes over loans. With a good lawsuit turns the door to write lawsuits for others, and made a lot of money."

For old Chen's words, everyone was inexplicably moved. It seems that the world of Dachu is really different!
