Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 453 The ministers want to fight to the death, but what can they do?
After gathering the people, Qian Jue just entertained everyone with delicious food and drinks, and said that he would ask the emperor for reinforcements, and that he would do his best to prepare for the battle.

From time to time, Qian Jue inspected the garrison in Jinan Prefecture, and then he did a "big event", that is, he built a conscription tablet, encouraging the people in Jinan Prefecture to respond to the imperial court's call, voluntarily join the Green Camp, and advocated that the gentry recruit their own heroes , Defend the country.

Then there was no more, Qian Jue sang high-pitched, but there was no real action.

For example, to encourage recruiting, he didn't settle for food, grass and military pay, and he wasn't even responsible for the weapons. He was in such a hurry up and down Shandong, and Qian Jue was the only one who was carefree.

Those who are interested can clearly see that this Qian Jue does not look like a mediocre official, he must have a problem with his thinking and wants to be clear.

But due to the lack of practical evidence, and the fact that Nalan Mingzhu is behind her, an important official of the court, no one dared to expose this point.

Qian Jue is not in a hurry, but Ming is not dragging his feet with Shandong. After Zhu Kezang left, Wang Xianwu tried his best to clear up northern Jiangsu. He is currently besieging Xuzhou. Xuzhou is in danger, and the days before being captured are numbered.

As the so-called Xuzhou area, there have been more than [-] large-scale battles in the past dynasties.
Xuzhou has always been a strategic location with an extremely superior geographical location and convenient water and land transportation.

Before the Southern Song Dynasty, it was surrounded by Sishui in the north and east, Qufu and other places could be reached north along Sishui, Huaiyin could be reached in the south, Bian River in the west could reach Luoyang in the west, water transportation was more efficient than land transportation in the cold weapon era .

Xuzhou's strategic position is obvious. Occupying a favorable position in Xuzhou, you can attack Qilu if you go north, sweep the Jianghuai River if you go south, and fight for hegemony in the Central Plains if you go west.

It can be described as the key to the north and the south, and the key to the east and west. According to historical records, there have been nearly [-] large and small wars in Xuzhou from ancient times to the present.

And now Xuzhou is about to be breached. Zhang Penghe, the prefect of Yanzhou, the neighbor to the north of Xuzhou, remembers that he is like an ant on a hot pot, sending people to Jinan Mansion every now and then to ask for help, but Qian Jue ignores it at all, and there is no reply at all. The Ming army is like a stick in the throat, Zhang Penghe has already brought a knife and chopped off the bastard Qian Jue.

Zhang Penghe, the magistrate of Yanzhou, was different from Qian Jue. He was a more decent official.

If Zhu Kezang did not travel through time, he would have been in office for more than [-] years. He is famous all over the world because of his lofty aspirations, his commitment to the country, his noble conduct, his rigorous style of work, his life of refinement, his self-improvement, his extraordinary talents, and his outstanding political achievements. At that time, he was called "virtuous prime minister" and "upright official", and was finally praised by Kangxi as "the most honest and honest official in the world".

However, now he is facing a crisis of life and death. Once the Ming army breaks through the Yanzhou Mansion, as a Han official of the Qing Dynasty, he needs to be loyal and die in the city.

Before Yanzhou City was breached, he was bound by morality to do his best to keep Yanzhou.

However, Qian Jue didn't care about Yanzhou's life or death. He just ate, drank and had fun with his confidantes every day, with an attitude of dying after getting too addicted.

Therefore, most of the magistrates recruited by Qian Jue to Jinan were just doing their own thing. A few conscientious ones had already secretly prepared the hanging rope and the red crane crown, and were ready to die to report to the king.

After all, the Qing Dynasty ruled the country for decades, and there are still some diehards who are determined to fight against the Ming Dynasty.

But as soon as the news that "the Qing Dynasty fell and Emperor Kangxi surrendered to the enemy" came out, these diehards also panicked, and all flocked to Qian Jue's governor's yamen.

Before they reached the third hall of the yamen, they heard Qian Jue spitting people from a distance: "I am dumbfounded. We officials haven't surrendered yet, why did we surrender first when we became emperor?"

Then I heard two people with the authentic accent of the capital also echoed. One of them had a male duck voice, and it sounded like a father-in-law.

"Master Qian, don't complain, the emperor has done his best, and he brought the eunuch Liang Jiugong to Jingshan!"

"Yes, I also saw the emperor and Eunuch Liang go up to Jingshan Mountain, but then they came down crying again."

"Why come down? Shouldn't it be hung up?"

This is Qian Jue's words, and it sounds like a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty!

"Isn't it because the trees with crooked necks on Jingshan Mountain were cut down, and the emperor couldn't find a place to hang himself!"

"Excuses are all excuses!" Qian Jue roared angrily, "If you want to hang yourself, you can find a beam, and you don't have to hang it on a tree!"

"The emperor has already voted, what should we do?" Qian Jue was furious, with a posture of hating iron but not steel.

"The emperor said that you should decide on your own, and he has already voted anyway." A father-in-law said.

A few people sang together, and the officials outside were dumbfounded. Is this free to surrender?

They have lived for so long, and they have never heard of the idea of ​​surrendering to freedom, which is really against the way of a "gentleman".

Qian Jue had already noticed that someone was talking, but he didn't say a word, he just strode out with the copy of the surrender form, then held up the fake surrender form made by Daming, and said loudly to the officials outside: "Everyone! Do you know? The Qing Dynasty fell, and our Emperor Kangxi surrendered! This is a surrender form written in Manchu and Chinese. It also uses the emperor’s treasure, or it was sent by the father-in-law and the imperial guards in the palace. , the unmistakable Daqing is gone!"

All the officials in the yard were dumbfounded!

The emperor has descended!

How can the emperor surrender?
The emperor has surrendered, so how can the people below surrender?
It is impossible to discuss treatment with Daming.

These officials generally believed that the surrender of Ming Dynasty was not in vain. If the treatment was poor, it would be better to die and gain a reputation for loyalty.

Why did so many gentry surrender to the Qing Dynasty in the late Ming Dynasty?

The direct reason is that the Qing Dynasty paid good treatment, and the rotten tax system of the Ming Dynasty could not be solved, so naturally a large number of people defected.

Even corrupt officials who have made a lot of money are afraid of being slaughtered for military pay, or being tortured by Li Zicheng, so they naturally like to seek refuge in Taqing.

The deep-seated reason is that the imperial examination system has shaped the "common landlords", and one of their core interests is the imperial examination system.

With this system, their group can always be an official. As for who is an official and what the emperor's surname is, it doesn't matter.

As long as you recognize the imperial examination, why was the Qing Dynasty abandoned so quickly by various places in the last years?
Because of the abolition of the imperial examination, big landlords, gentry and bureaucrats from all over the country have entered the "Consultation Bureau". Where do you think the power of such a department comes from?

The emperor is a baby, the Eight Banners have long since died, and the imperial examinations are no longer taken, so they can just stand on their own.

If the Tartars resolutely abolished the imperial examinations when they entered the customs, then the landlords who have milk is a mother, and those who have holes have to kneel, they must let the Tartars know what is meant by "an inch of rivers and mountains and an inch of blood."

Far away, Shandong officials are now anxious.

The Qing Dynasty is gone!How can the Qing Dynasty disappear?
The country is gone, which country is the big guy now?

Are you from Daming?
If you are a member of the Ming Dynasty, then you can't betray the Qing Dynasty, and you can't die for the Qing Dynasty.
By the way, Ming Dynasty's imperial examination seems to be a bit difficult, what should I do?
We are a group of people who only know stereotypes, not true Confucianism and knowledge, and fighting with southern gentry, we are at a great disadvantage!
When the big guy was dumbfounded, Qian Jue had already said: "Everyone, I originally wanted to lead troops to Beijing with you to serve the king. But now the emperor has surrendered, and the Qing Dynasty is gone. Then what is in front of us now Nothing more than three roads!"
