Traveling through the Ming Dynasty, as soon as you open your eyes, you will die

With a heroic tone, Wu Yuanzheng stood on horseback in the land of Liaodong and took a deep breath. The air in the northeast was fragrant with rosin. Then he looked at his brother behind him.

The brothers behind him were just as he imagined, each of them blushed, and each of them was so passionate.

"Brothers, we have realized the dream that the three emperors of the Ming Dynasty, no, the fourth emperor wanted to realize. I have decided this time that if we cannot achieve the goals and tasks given to us by the regent, even if our entire army is annihilated, we will never leave Liaodong. , Never cross the Liao River westward, brothers, can you do it?"

The 1 athletes raised the steel knives in their hands together: "If you don't reach your goal, you will never cross the river."

"Okay, as long as we have this determination, there is nothing in the world that we can't do?"

The soldiers were even more excited.

"But what we are doing now is quite easy, which is to give Dorgon a headache. How can we give Dorgon a headache? We will become bandits and burn, kill and loot Liaodong. According to the words of our regent To put it simply, we must implement the Three-Guang policy in Liaodong, seize everything we can carry, burn everything we can burn, and kill everything we can kill.”

The soldiers once again raised their weapons and shouted excitedly: "I respect the regent's order, burn them all, kill them all, and rob them all."

"Very good, then let's get into the role now. First, we will block the road and rob, and cut off the enemy's food route."

This time, whoever Wu Yuanzheng wants to rob, of course he has to win the battle and grab a big one.

Therefore, there were very few soldiers stationed along the way and escorting supplies along the way. Soldiers are urgently needed at the front, so where are the idle soldiers in the safe rear to protect the so-called transportation lines?
Those few soldiers were just maintaining order and punishing waste and slow work.

Now the Manchu Qing Dynasty has more than 1.5 million coalition troops and civilians on the front line of the Great Wall. They cannot rely on local robbery to ensure their frontline supply of food and grass supplies like they did when they entered the Ming Dynasty.

However, in the hearts of Hong Chengchou and all the princes and nobles of the Qing Dynasty, such a thing was impossible to happen.

So at this time, on the road from Shengjing to the front line, there was an endless stream of convoys transporting supplies to the front line.

Of course, there is also a risk in this, that is, once the troops are attacked by the enemy, the losses will be heavy.

Because the war environment was different, they were in the territory of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so they had to fight a regular war obediently. In addition to the cattle and sheep to eat, the grain needed by the soldiers and the beans needed by the war horses had to be transported from Shengjing in the Qing Dynasty.

Densely packed, day and night.

Dafang Military Station, the clerk here, Liang Wenhua, is a scholar from Liaodong.

The traitor Hong Chengchou is now in charge of all this. He follows normal rules and sets up huge military stations along the road every hundred miles. The rear will transport grain and grass supplies here to unload them, and then the group of people can go back. Continue to the next shipment. Then there were nearby civilians who took over their place and transferred the materials here to the next stop.

With the grace of Huang Taiji, he promoted the policy of being gentle to the Han people, and with a little bit of ink in his belly, he actually passed the imperial examination. In this special period when the Qing Empire was seriously short of educated people, he rose to the top and became a member of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Officials. But he looked down from the bottom of his heart on these barbarian slaves of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

Because this is the homeland of the Qing Empire, the Ming army is usually as afraid of the Qing as a tiger. If you invite him to come here for a meal, he will not dare to come.

Although I was forced by circumstances to become a superior slave, it was an absolute shame for me, a noble scribe, to be a slave of slaves.

However, the situation is pressing, and we still need to handle the situation well.

After calling his most trusted confidant, he sent a message to the second son: "I'm telling you, supplies are tight on the front line, and our treasury behind us has been emptied. Those hateful slaves transporting supplies actually lost the supplies on the road. How can this be an increase of 10%? You immediately bring a few slaves, arrest all the slaves who have not made up the consumption according to our regulations, torture them, and then notify their families to make up for the losses. .""tie--"

"By the way, convert those losses into silver, so that they can pay more easily."

"tie--"

"No, their silver is mixed. Don't let them take advantage of it. We want silver dollars."

"tie--"

Then I despised those barbarians in my heart. Look, the methods used to bully the people below, we Central Plains people are all higher-sounding than yours. How can you, the slaves, compare with us Han people?

"Collect these silver coins, and you can secretly send them to the customs and deposit them in the Central Bank of Ming Dynasty. Let's earn some interest."

"My Lord, we have a lot of money stored there. This time our Qing masters have used all the power of the country to destroy the Ming Dynasty. Don't let us lose everything by then."

A thought jumped over: "You crow mouth, what are you talking about?" Then he lowered his voice: "Do you think the Ming Dynasty is so easy to destroy? There are still three nails in the broken ship. It turns out that the Ming Dynasty has reached that point, and it can still persist. What's more, under the control of that little devil regent, they are already strong. It's too early to kill him this time. Let's take advantage of this opportunity to earn more interest money. When the time comes, we will quietly return to the Central Plains. You’re a sister-in-law.”

Holding his cheek, the second brother asked doubtfully: "Thank you, brother, thank you very much, brother. Huh? Brother, don't you think highly of our Qing Dynasty?"

Liang Wenhua gently shook his head again: "It's not that I'm not optimistic, but I'm not optimistic at all. Originally, there might still be a chance to destroy the Ming Dynasty, but for some reason, our regent was in vain after the rise of that little devil regent. It wasted two years, giving him enough time to become bigger and stronger. As long as the Ming Dynasty recovers, do you think that with its deep foundation and sufficient population, it will be destroyed so easily in the future? It would be difficult to destroy the Ming Dynasty with the Qing Dynasty’s little wealth.”

"Isn't our family rich enough?"

Liang Wenhua sneered: "You are an uneducated guy who has never seen the world. In fact, our Qing family wealth is not as rich as that of a province in the Ming Dynasty in normal years. In the past, we relied on looting to replenish our wars. For us in the Qing Dynasty, war is not only not a loss-making business, but also a profitable business, so we persist until now.

But look at this war, it is really a regular war. The food and supplies passing by our eyes every day are just like running water. This is all due to the old foundation of our Qing Dynasty.

Have you noticed that the war ahead is at a stalemate, and the supplies transported to the front were originally full of large and small cars, but if you look at the past half month, the supplies transported to the front are no longer half of what they were before.

If we continue to fight like this, according to my estimation, within a month, the treasury behind us will be completely empty, and we will no longer be able to produce a grain of grain or a straw. How can we fight this war? Therefore, we are deeply indebted to the Qing Dynasty and should repay it to the death. However, leaving a way out for ourselves is also the fundamental principle of life. This is quite important. Then he proudly showed off his scribe style: "A group of slave-building barbarians also want to take over the Central Plains and seize the Han family's world?" Dream on. As long as the Han family produces a true hero with great talent and strategy, they are simply talking nonsense. "

This is the mentality of the Han people in the Manchu and Qing Dynasties in this era. They grovel under power and consider themselves slaves. But deep down, they looked down upon these barbaric slaves at all.

Xiao Er, who has never left the village since he was a child, is really confused about this contradictory theory.

But this little brother is the only literate person in his village, and he is like a god among the villagers. What he said is absolutely correct.

"Then I'll go on errands."

Another batch of supplies was delivered, which was less than the last one.

Liang Wenhua sighed with emotion in his hands: "The opportunities to make a fortune are getting less and less. We must hurry up. The war is about to end. After passing this village, there will be no more shops." (End of Chapter)
