Chapter 81 The Overwatch Council

A few days later, Ning Zhongyuan, the governor of the Fuhan Army, returned to Wuchang. Although the group was full of dust and dust, their faces couldn't hide their joy. This time they visited the entire Hanyang Mansion and the counties under Wuchang Mansion. Reassuring people's hearts and caring for the people made the cloud that shrouded Hanyang Wuchang Erfu dissipate.

Even though the weather was getting colder, Ning Zhongyuan still insisted on wearing armor. The heavy iron armor made his body very bloated, so when he walked over, he seemed a little slow, and the nail leaves made a jerky sound in the friction.

Ning Yu waved the maid back, and went to help Ning Zhongyuan take off his armor with his own hands, and hung the heavy armor on the rack. This time, he brought a cup of tea. The tea was still Yunmeng old camellia, slightly bitter.

"Father should hurry up and go out during this period of time. I think he should gain a lot." Ning Yu said with a smile.

Ning Zhongyuan looked excited. Although the busyness during this period almost made him sleepless, whenever he recalled what he saw during the inspection, his heart couldn't stop boiling. He stood up, clenched his fists tightly, and stood up in the air with a wave.

"Yu'er, you don't know that ever since our army launched the banner of anti-Qing and Ming Dynasty, anti-Qing righteous fighters from the people have been enthusiastic. Although the gentry and common people below have not really returned their hearts, they have not opposed it either!"

Ning Yu was also delighted. To some extent, in the eyes of most people, they still wear the hat of rebels, but now these landlords and squires have shown a neutral attitude, which is gratifying enough to congratulate .However, this is also due to the fact that the Ning, Cheng, Zheng and other big families have been cultivating in Hubei for a long time, and their connections are prominent, so such a good ending can occur.

Especially today's Hanyang Mansion, which was originally the old place where the Ning family started, and the county magistrates below are now replaced by members of the Ning family, so whether it is personnel or materials, it is the place with the highest support, just like today There are more than 1 people in the Fuhan Army, of which more than [-] are from Hanyang.

"Father, what does this mean? It means that the blood of the Han people has not yet cooled. Since the Jiashen Kingdom Change, we Han people have never regarded the Manchus as Zhengshuo. This is our chance."

Ning Zhongyuan sighed slightly, "Although the ancestors surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, they still remember that they are Han people. Now we are forced to raise the flag of rebellion. As long as we win the hearts of the Han gentry, we will know who will die."

Ning Yu's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Father, now I have a plan to win the hearts of gentlemen."

"You boy, if you have anything to say quickly, now I have heard of your reputation as General Ning in the counties and counties below. You defeated Daye in the first battle and took Huangzhou in the second. !"

When Ning Zhongyuan thought of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise. Although he was also a general who led troops, he had no chance to go to the battlefield in person as the governor. The desire for the battlefield.

Ning Yu blushed slightly, and changed the topic: "Now we have a government affairs hall and a privy council under the governor's mansion, which divides political and military power, and lacks a piece of supervision. Why don't we set up an Oversight Council and recruit respected gentry to attract people's hearts. "

"The members of the Control Yuan do not have real power and cannot interfere with local administration, but they can supervise local officials. For the gentry who enjoy the status of members of the Control Yuan, they can serve as the think tanks of the advisory body of the Political Affairs Hall and regularly make suggestions to the Political Affairs Hall."

"In this way, we can not only give the gentry under the control of our Fuhan Army an opportunity to participate in the situation, but also exert their power to check and balance the increasingly large military and political system of our Fuhan Army."

When Ning Zhongyuan heard this suggestion, his brows relaxed slightly, but he still had some doubts, "If it's just that, I'm afraid there are still not many gentry willing to participate."

Ning Yu sighed and said: "This is also a helpless thing. When the situation is not really stable, no one will put their wealth on us, but we can first absorb some people who dare to participate in the current situation, and give them More support."

Yes, there is only support. On this point, Ning Yu actually sees very clearly that the gentry can be used and cooperated, but it is limited to this. A frame must be drawn so that the gentry can honestly be used by the Fuhan army .

Unwilling to cooperate?It doesn't matter, the force of the Fuhan army will make them shut up honestly. It is really embarrassing, so they can just ransack their homes and confiscate their property and land. If they are willing to cooperate, they will be given some support, or even some benefits.

Ning Zhongyuan nodded, "I will convene a meeting of all ethnic groups. It would be good if I could get some support. It's just that this shitty thing of wrangling and fighting is not as smooth as it is on the battlefield."

From the bottom of his heart, Ning Zhongyuan still belongs to a soldier, he longs for a battlefield full of war, but the current situation makes him have to do these exhausting things.

Ning Yu also knew his father's state of mind in his heart, and said softly: "Father, if this matter is done well, it will be much better than me winning a few more battles on the battlefield."

Ning Zhongyuan snorted softly, "Let's not talk about it now, but you kid, it's time to get married."

Hearing Ning Zhongyuan's old saying again, Ning Yu couldn't help but feel dizzy, and said with a wry smile: "Now the war is urgent, and I'm afraid there will be a big battle a year ago. At this juncture, my son really doesn't have the heart."

Ning Zhongyuan had a serious face, without the relaxed expression just now, looked at Ning Yu and said: "Do you think I'm talking about the love between children and children? This matter is not only related to you personally, but also to the entire Fuhan Army s future!"

"Today's Fuhan Army, you are my eldest son. If something happens to me in the future, you will succeed me and become the commander of the Fuhan Army. But if you are unmarried and have no children, how can people rest assured?"

Ning Yu was silent. Of course he knew that for any organization, having no descendants is a very influential thing, which means that there is no future and no hope. How can people rest assured to follow?Only by giving birth to an heir can he prove to all his followers that whether he cares or not, there is still a backup hope.

"Also, Mr. Cui is also backed by a very large clan. He also hopes in his heart that this matter can be facilitated, so that the two Ning and Cui families can be completely tied together, and then there will be more help."

"Yu'er, no matter what it is for, you will not be allowed to discuss this matter again!"

Ning Zhongyuan's tone is very flat, but the meaning revealed is very firm, no matter how much he indulges his son at ordinary times, he will not let him go at critical moments.

"Yes, baby, take orders." Ning Yu bowed deeply to salute, but when he slowly raised his head and straightened up, his eyes became deeper and deeper.
