Win the Ding 1617

Chapter 651 Drive away tigers and devour wolves?

Bai Mu Xingjiu angrily threw the family heirloom knife in his hand on the ground, and picked up the saber thrown by the guard on the ground by the light of the flames, but he was quite surprised when he got the knife!

The so-called experts will know if there is one as soon as they reach out.From the shape, size and weight of this saber, Shiraki Yukihisa knew that the material of this saber could not be wrong.Otherwise, such a Miao knife similar to the Japanese knife would not have such a heavy weight!

Sure enough, after intersecting with the remaining guards, Bai Mu Xingjiu was pleasantly surprised to find that some of Yu Supu's guards were equipped with the legendary bared iron steel sword.And the one he picked up from the ground was a top-quality bared iron steel knife!

However, even with the treasured sword in hand, he couldn't catch up with Yu Supu's fleeing footsteps. Seeing the faintly visible white horse, it disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye. As the last ray of the white horse disappeared on the retina, Bai Mu Xingjiu couldn't help feeling as if he had lost the love of his life, and he felt as if he had been drained of all his energy.Despair, frustration, annoyance, resentment, and many other negative emotions came to my mind together.

"Damn! Why don't I run faster! Why do I have to entangle with those lowly inferior people!"

"The opportunity to make great contributions was lost in vain!"

Cursing and cursing in his mouth, Bai Mu Xingjiu looked at everything around him and found it so unpleasant, the captives were not pleasing to the eye, the captured knives, guns, equipment, and ceremonial equipment were not pleasing to the eye, and the huge Luanyu was not pleasing to the eye, so he Even the fellow Kumamoto folks talking and laughing loudly on the battlefield and discussing each other's results were also very unpleasant.

The reason is simple, he didn't catch Yusup!According to the reward Wu Liuqi promised, if he captures Sultan Yusupu alive, the soldiers of the entire Kumamoto Battalion can be naturalized in Nanzhong and become the masters of Nanzhong from then on.on this fertile land.Occupy a huge piece of land that can be passed down to future generations based on military merits!And he, Bai Mu Xingjiu, can directly join the Nanyue Army and become a lord of the heavenly kingdom who can directly look into the eyes of the shogun!

As a descendant of retainers who have served daimyo for generations, Shiraki Yukihisa's family has also reached the level of six hundred stone servants, so it is naturally a source of family education.I have read some Sinology books.He had heard that in the most chaotic and brilliant period of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period in the history of the Celestial Dynasty, the Qin State, which rose to the west, used the twenty-level military merit title system to create a tiger and wolf army that swept across the six kingdoms of Shandong. .Everyone in the whole country rejoices when they hear about the war, because if you cut off an enemy's head, you will get a first-level harvest.It is precisely because of such different treatment that the soldiers of the Qin Army have the image of beheading the enemy with a belt around their waists and holding captives under their ribs, as if they were fighting bravely.It remains in the works of Mr. Sima.

In the eyes of Bai Mu Xingjiu and others, the Southern Guangdong Army's military merit naturalization system for the mercenaries of various ministries means that the lords of the Celestial Dynasty have opened up a path for them to make progress.As long as you are willing to sacrifice your life for General Li and behead the enemy for him, he will reward you generously.

These rewards are undoubtedly huge and generous, ranging from white rice to yellow Tongbao, from beautiful calico and satin that women like to various exquisite and sturdy weapons and armor that warriors like.Each of them is a high-quality product that can change the state of life.

However, in the eyes of these mercenaries like Shiraki Xingjiu.The most precious reward is a notice allowing them to be naturalized.Many years of business contacts with Nanzhong, political, economic and military contacts, many people in the country of Wa have lived in Nanzhong for a long time through various channels, or officially became the masters of the Ming Dynasty, and have a decent job. .There is also a rich industry, enjoying a life without worrying about food and clothing.The power of role models is infinite. In the hearts of mercenaries, the rewards of money, food, and silk are far less important and glorious than a naturalization notice!

Once naturalized.With an identity, those money, food, property, relying on one's own ability, are all at your fingertips!That's why those mercenaries, knowing that they were destined to be cannon fodder, rushed forward against the impenetrable projectiles in front of them.

(Actually, Li Shouhan’s Nanyue Army family is not alone in this method of changing fate overnight, and the carp jumping through the dragon’s gate. Please turn your attention to the northeast corner of the East Asian continent. There, Huang Taiji also organized The Han army flag and the means of raising the flag with the coat will stimulate morale and inspire people.

As for the land of the Central Plains, which first invented this method of changing personal destiny, it has long since abolished this military merit system, and the evil results accumulated over the years by the nobles, the nobles, and the humble have shown a retaliatory rebound.The generals who lead troops everywhere have no skills to defend against the enemy, but they have quite a few tricks to disturb the people.And the soldiers are everywhere, no matter what governor or prime minister you are, I see you are awkward, so I just left you and ran away!

This kind of system of going to the Tianzitang for Tianshelang at night only survives in the imperial examination field, but those who jump the dragon gate are no longer heroes who can go to battle to kill the enemy, but a group of Fan Jin. )

Thinking about the happiness that was almost within reach, but now flies as far away as the white crane, Shiraki Xingjiu couldn't help being in a bad mood, angry at his subordinates, swearing all kinds of Japanese dirty words in his mouth, They even beat and kicked the captured Muhammad fighters.Several times, I had the urge to draw out my sword and kill all these captives, but without these captives, the military achievements of the fellow villagers in Kumamoto would be even less!He had no choice but to force himself to suppress the evil fire in his heart, and just beat those captives with fists and kicks!

"That's enough! You idiot! After breaking them, I have to arrange a doctor to treat them!"

Seeing Bai Mu Xingjiu, who was waving the scabbard in his hand and beating the captives non-stop, Wu Liuqi, who came from the rear to inspect the battlefield and check the results of the battle, cursed in his heart.

The cursing in my heart was a curse, and Wu Liuqi still admired Bai Mu Xingjiu's military exploits.He and the Kumamoto soldiers he led, like the tip of a sharp knife, pierced directly into the core position of those rebels, pierced into Yu Supu's main formation abruptly, and turned the army formation upside down , Let his liver and gallbladder be torn, and he lost the courage to command the battle.From this point of view, Shiraki Yukihisa played really well!

"You don't want to show me the face of a dead mother! Isn't it because you didn't catch that thief Yu Supu? If you can run away, the monk can't run away from the temple! As long as he spends a day in Java, he will There is a chance to catch him!"

After reprimanding Shiraki Xingjiu for a few words, the eyes of the leader of the Kumamoto soldier suddenly became bright.

"I've got a good job for you! Clean it up. Take your men, escort this sedan chair, and the people around Yusupu, and go to Batavia City to report the victory! The county horse will definitely reward you!" He beat and scolded Bai Mu Xingjiu and told Bai Mu Xingjiu that although Yu Supu was not caught this time, his Luanyu was captured.It was also a big blow to the rebels, and the promised rewards remained unchanged.

Therefore, Bai Mu Xingjiu led his remaining team of less than 300 people to escort the Luanyu of Sultan Yusupu, and sent the biggest spoil to the city of Batavia to show his uncle and nephew Zheng Sen.

After listening to Bai Mu Xingjiu's long-winded talk about all this, Zheng Sen was also secretly happy.

"Ruo Dianyang, this is a letter from General Wu ordered by the villain, please take a look at Ruo Dianxiang!" Seeing Zheng Sen's gentle and joyful expression.Bai Mu Xingjiu naturally knew that the second son-in-law of the Southern Guangdong Army in front of him was quite satisfied with his record. If he didn't flatter him now, when would he wait?He hurriedly took out a wax-sealed letter from the leather pouch he was carrying, held it in both hands, and handed it to Zheng Sen respectfully.

The letter was written by Wu Liuqi, and it talked about the situation on the battlefield, so Zheng Sen took it in his hand and read it carefully.Zheng Zhibao on the side began to plan for the situation on Java Island after the war, how to deploy manpower.How to turn various villages and towns into iron barrels under the rule of the Southern Guangdong Army.I was bored for a while, so I chatted with that Bai Mu Xingjiu.

The children of the Zheng family all have language talents, not to mention that Zheng Zhibao and Zheng Sen both lived in the Japanese country, and Zheng Sen has half of the Japanese blood. Speaking of Dongying dialect, it is no different from the native dialect.

"Your surname is Baimu? Which feudal lord did you work for before?"

"My lord! That happened before! The villain has made some credit for fighting. General Wu, in order to encourage the villain, not only announced that the villain and these fellow villagers can join the Kingdom of Heaven and become the subjects of the lord, but also gave the villain Changed my last name!"

"Oh?! General Wu changed your surname? What is your surname? How should you be called?"

"The villain's surname is Bai! It's called Xingjiu!"

It turned out that Wu Liuqi just changed Bai Mu Xingjiu's white wood to white, but he used this extremely lazy method in exchange for the death power of these Kumamoto buns.Zheng Zhibao didn't laugh out loud either.The eyeballs rolled a few times, and an idea jumped out.

"At present, this group of thieves is gone, Java Island is about to be pacified, and these Japanese slaves can be of great use." Now that he had made up his mind, he asked Bai Xingjiu slowly.

"Bai Xingjiu, since General Wu has given you a name and surname, then I will add to the cake, how about giving you a name?"

Bai Xingjiu naturally knew that giving him a word, how much benefit this kind of honor and the incense and fate would bring him, he was so happy that he almost knelt down to lick Zheng Zhibao's boots!

"Thank you sir! Thank you sir!"

"General Bai, your surname is Baimu, and your name is Xingjiu. Although the wooden character has been hidden by General Wu, you must not forget the root. In this way, I will give you a word. How about Yansong? The pine tree on the rock is exactly the same as Your real name, Bai Mu Xingjiu, matches the artistic conception, what does the general think?"

"Bai Xingjiu, the name is Yansong, Yansong, Yansong. Thank you for giving me the name!"

"Uncle Wu gave you a word, so naturally I won't let you go back empty-handed. Come!" Zheng Sen signaled to the guards who were waiting on the side to take a Japanese sword.

"This is a high-quality sharp weapon that my father invited master craftsmen to make of iron and steel according to the style of the Japanese sword. Since you are born in the Japanese country, you are used to using the Japanese sword. I will give you this storm, you But you have to be good at contributing to the master!"

Within a day, from a mercenary leader to a lord of the heavenly kingdom, he was given a name by Wu Liuqi, who is known as the Iron Beggar, and was given a name by Zheng Zhibao, who was in charge of the Bureau of Reclamation, and the icing on the cake was rewarded with a treasured sword by Master Junma, This series of great honors made Bai Xingjiu's eyes flash with happiness, and he felt dizzy for a while.

Bai Xingjiu, who said he was very grateful, proudly took the fellow Kumamoto fellows who were equally proud, and escorted Yusupu's luanyu bearers to the military and political department in a neat line, and at the same time reported the names and military exploits of the fallen soldiers. Report in detail to apply for pensions for them.According to the standard of rewards that Zheng Sen issued to them just now, although these fallen soldiers died in person, their military achievements can also be inherited by their families.However, the heirs can only be his own parents, wife and children.Neither brother can.However, what Zheng Sen didn't expect was that the so-called policies above and countermeasures below are not just a specialty of my country of China.In the face of the temptation of huge material interests, this pension condition is tantamount to opening a shortcut for many people to quickly become the people of Nanzhong.

soon.In front of the homes of those fallen soldiers who were so poor that they were left with only debts, crowds of relatives came in groups.As long as you are willing to include my son and daughter in your household registration and become the children of the guy who has ascended to heaven as a god, then I will be responsible for repaying the debts owed by your family.In addition, the living expenses of going to Nanzhong can also bear part of it.

In many places, in order to recognize the dead ghost as a father, a business has also begun to appear, and a large number of scalpers have appeared one after another.then.Under the temptation of Huang Chengcheng's Tongbao and Bai Huahua's rice, many mercenaries who were only in their 20s or 30s when they died in battle suddenly had sons and daughters in their seventies, eight years old or even in their teens.What's more, buy one get one free, and use his concubine who is several months pregnant as the dead ghost wife who has been away from home for nearly a year.

All kinds of chaos will not be repeated.

We turned our heads and continued to focus on Uncle and Nephew Zheng Sen.

"Da Mu, what did Wu Liuqi say in this letter?"

Back in Batavia City, the battle in front of me is progressing smoothly.Zheng Zhibao couldn't help but relax a lot.Place the whole body on a Western-style rocking chair, and follow the ups and downs of the rocking chair.The whole body stretches out.

"Fifth Uncle, Wu Liuqi's opinion is that he has sent his troops straight into the enemy's hinterland in the past few days, and the newly recovered areas will have to trouble Uncle's troops!"

Hearing what Zheng Sen said, Zheng Zhibao couldn't help but stand up resolutely, "What?"

Wu Liuqi's strategy.It is to oppress the army to Yusupu's royal city, but it is surrounded but not attacked, which puts huge pressure on Yusupu Sultan.The vast area from Wangcheng to Batavia City was handed over to Zheng Zhibao's Reclamation Bureau, and the original clan, tribe, and blood relationship were quickly disrupted one by one, and the villages and towns were re-established.

While this work is progressing.Inevitably, Zheng Sen must lead the rest of the ministries to thoroughly wipe out the remaining small groups of bandits running around.

"Uncle Wu, Wu Liuqi has already done a good job of setting fire to the wasteland! How to open up the wasteland and how to cultivate it carefully depends on you, Uncle Wu! Whether you can turn the wasteland of Java into the land of the lord? It’s all thanks to Uncle Wu that the good land we planted!”

Passing Wu Liuqi's letter to fifth uncle Zheng Zhibao, Zheng Sen spoke thoughtfully.

Therefore, the two uncles and nephews discussed behind closed doors, and carefully planned the various steps, manpower and material resources needed to turn this wasteland into fertile land, and those links needed to be submitted to Li Shouhan for instructions.

On the next day, in the square of the former Governor's Mansion, more than a thousand capable officers of the Fuzhou Reclamation Bureau gathered here, preparing to listen to the instructions of the Council Office and the county horse.

"Everyone, in yesterday's battle, General Wu defeated Yusupu's troops and all the bandits who were attached to him and followed his lead. Now they have arrived at the city of Yusupu. It is time to besiege and not to attack. This is an opportunity for everyone to display their talents!"

Simply conveying the good news ahead to more than a thousand people present, immediately caused a buzz of discussion in the square.

"My lord, there were rumors in the city yesterday that Yu Supu was captured alive, but why didn't he be captured alive?"

Zheng Sen said with a smile: "You don't have to be sorry, this Yu Supu is our intention to let him escape. Please see, our army's deployment is surrounded by three and missing one, leaving the border between him and the Calvinist bandits. Passage, if you want to run, you can only run to the territory of the Calvinist Church. The two religions are incompatible, we just need to wait for a few days, maybe the two families will attack each other, and then we can clean up the mess."

It turns out that adults are playing a trick to drive tigers and wolfs away!When the two of them were exhausted from fighting, our Southern Guangdong Army was Bian Zhuang who stabbed the tiger, and could kill them with a single sword strike!

The current campaign has achieved great results, but the criterion for measuring the success of suppressing bandits and suppressing chaos is whether the area has been purified, whether a strong grassroots regime has been established, and various legal systems have been implemented.Past experience has proved that after every large-scale bandit suppression, the broken bandits and rebels, large and small, would rely on their familiarity with the terrain to flee to the depths of the dense forest and hide among the people.Therefore, it takes a longer process to purify the area.

"This officer named this process, it's called stationing and suppressing! The staff office has divided the large newly recovered area from the front line to the original border according to administrative regions. All prefectures, counties, towns, and villages, you guys The masters of the Fuken Bureau will lead the team down, stationed in their own jurisdiction, split up the task, and wipe out the scattered bandits. At the same time, establish the Yamen for Lao Tzu, and establish the prestige of our lord and our Nanyue Army! The official wrote to the lord last night, asking him to quickly mobilize teachers to build hundreds of primary schools in the Java area to promote the teaching of saints. Remember, you must do three things: walk more frequently, and spread more publicity with your mouth Work diligently and help the people who have been ravaged by the rebels! Eat with them, sleep with them, and work with them. Let the people in your jurisdiction know who they should follow!"

Zheng Zhibao's speech style is familiar to the capable members of the Fuzhou Reclamation Bureau. Suddenly, a burst of chuckle came out of the team, and someone commented in a low voice, "It's a mistake to sleep together if you don't pay attention. bed, what should I do?"

"It doesn't matter! What did our eldest son do in Taiwan? You can marry and go home when you get married! At worst, the government will give you a bride price!" Zheng Sen is young and has very good ears and hearing. When he heard the joking words, he immediately replied with a joke .

A burst of laughter suddenly broke out among the crowd.

"Catch all the bandit leaders, dig out all the bandits, and use all the guns!" This was the slogan that came out from various villages, towns, and counties after the start of the garrison and suppression campaign.

As a result, Yu Supu, who was so worried almost overnight in the royal city, felt more pressure.There are constantly spies risking life and death, crossing the blockade to inquire about the news from outside:

In less than ten days, the Bureau of Reclamation and Reclamation established dozens of town-level regimes in selected key points and traffic arteries in the former Yusup Sultan's jurisdiction, and then established village-level regimes downwards and county-level regimes upwards.Subsequently, relevant institutions and schools at all levels have also selected sites for construction.

What's more terrible is that a registration office has been set up in the town hall, so that those chased and desperate bandits can come here to register and surrender. Moreover, the coerced ones will not be asked, and the meritorious ones will be rewarded.In just a few days, more than a thousand people went to these registration offices to register and surrender. They turned around and led the team frantically to the lair where they had been hiding to carry out strangulation activities.

"Your Majesty, more than a dozen leaders and troops have already surrendered to Wu Liuqi." Masood, the prime minister of Sultan Yusupu, also reported the recent military situation to him with a sad face.

When the two monarchs and ministers were sitting in the city full of chaos and sorrow, suddenly a servant came to report, and the envoy of the Calvinist militia asked to see him! (to be continued..)
