Win the Ding 1617

"After Shi Lang's three battles, he defeated and accommodated hundreds of thousands of people, and recovered dozens of large and small cities. It is an excellent thing for your father to support the Tang Dynasty to supervise the country. Why is there a big problem again? "

Li Huamei was a little annoyed. She defended her husband in front of her father, and at the same time she was trying to win credit.

"Erya, you only saw that Zunhou pacified Jiangxi in three battles, regained the city, defeated the tens of thousands of Qing troops, stabilized the situation in Jiangxi, and even pushed his troops to the south bank of the Yangtze River, directly threatening It’s the Yangtze River Shipping of the Qing Army. But you only know one thing, not the other.”

"Father, tell me, where is the second one?" Li Huamei handed a bowl of iced sour plum soup sent by the soldiers to Li Shouhan. The bursts of faint sweet fragrance refresh people in this sultry solar term.

After taking two mouthfuls of iced sweet-scented osmanthus and sour plum soup, Li Shouhan's thoughts became much clearer.

"Northern Jiangxi has been plagued by wars and bandits for many years. It is too much to say that it is a piece of scorched land and red land, but it is also dilapidated and cannot feed the army. Otherwise, Shi Lang would not use the supplies and grass in his hands as bait to mobilize Jin Shengheng, Wang Yuncheng and others. People have taken the bait. However, now this area, from Jiujiang and Nanchang on the south bank of the Yangtze River, to Ji'an Mansion, Gannan and other places, is under our control. Then, recuperate, restore farming and mulberry, feed the people of this side, feed The responsibility for these 10 horses rests on us."

"What's more, in recent days, your uncle arranged for Lin Kun to hold peace talks with Hong Chengchouxu and the Snake in Nanjing, in order to buy us time to mobilize and deploy soldiers and horses. However, Shi Lang's beating like this has made everyone feel ridiculous Lost, negotiate? That is absolutely impossible. Get ready to fight! This move will involve hundreds of thousands of soldiers and countless food and military pay, and the end will be endless."

Seeing that the father mentioned the matter of soldiers, horses, food and pay, Li Huamei couldn't help feeling proud in her chest.

"Father! Fight as soon as you fight! Are our Li family still afraid that Dorgon will fail?! Speaking of soldiers and horses, Er Chen also checked the documents sent by the soldiers in the office a few days ago. The soldiers and horses in each town are already in place. There are nearly 60 people! Among them, 30 people have already driven to the border area of ​​Fujian and Zhejiang, and it only takes a few days to enter Zhejiang. Or drive directly to Jiangxi via southern Jiangxi!"

"When it comes to grain and grass, let's not mention other places. Just say that in Songjiang Mansion, and in the Shanghai business district, several islands outside Wusongkou, there are enough grain, grass and oil for 20 people for half a year. There are more gunpowder, cannons, military uniforms and other equipment! Are we afraid that we will not be able to defeat him Dorgon?"

When it comes to soldiers, horses, money and food, Li Shouhan is also quite proud. After decades of hard work, he finally saw the results at this moment.Strictly follow the administrative agencies at all levels implemented by the road, government, county, township, village, and Jia, and implement the laws and regulations of putting soldiers in the hands of the people on weekdays.All young and middle-aged men who have become Ding must follow the relevant regulations and receive military training during the off-season. If you don’t want to accept this rule, it’s very simple. Someone from the village will come to your house immediately to help you demolish the house ,move place.Then, your family's fields will also change owners. "No one can just enjoy rights without assuming obligations." Moreover, this is not just an obligation. In the eyes of the older generation who are used to digging in the soil, letting the children go out to receive training will not only save the family several months. You can also make some friends and see the outside world.If you are lucky, it is also an opportunity to make progress.There are always people from the village next door who are old and who are young, who follow which generals go out to fight chaos, and renovate the family's house with the spoils and rewards they seized, and get a license from the government, and plan to open a few hundred mu more News of the Badlands came.

After decades of subtle influence, the people of Nanzhong no longer regard being a soldier as a survival choice when there is no end, but as a way to change and improve the living conditions of their families and individuals.Therefore, a mobilization order was issued, and hundreds of thousands of elite troops who "come to fight and win" in the eyes of the generals in the mainland were immediately mobilized.That's right!These soldiers and horses are not novices who are born with melon eggs. They are all people who have spent several months or even more than half a year in the military. They are familiar with the military system, all kinds of flag signals, and the equipment in their hands.

If it wasn't for Li Shouhan's scruples that he was worried that the deployment of too many people would cause social turmoil in Nanzhong, which in turn would affect the industrial and agricultural production in Nanzhong, he could have summoned 300 million people at once.Anyway, there is plenty of food in the warehouse, enough to feed these people.

He also heard the head of the household department in charge of grain storage complaining to him more than once, saying that since the sale of grain to all parts of the Central Plains stopped, the warehouses in the South and Central Plains have been full of grain, and the official warehouse alone has piled up at least 10,000+ ten thousand stones of rice, this is not counting the larger number of local warehouses in various places, and the number of stockpiles of free warehouses such as Siwucang in various villages.

"So, Shi Lang took down the whole of Jiangxi, and I don't worry about whether I can support the people on this land." Li Shouhan put down the lily porcelain bowl where he could vaguely see the shadows of a few sweet-scented osmanthus flowers remaining in the bowl, "South of Jiangxi is good or bad. In the past few years under our jurisdiction, there have been no major disasters, and it is considered peaceful. Over the past few years, there has been some grain accumulation in the government treasury. So I sent a document to the governor of Gannan, ordering him to transfer the surplus grain from various places. The transportation to the north will be handed over to Shi Lang. As long as it lasts for two or three months, the grain from Guangdong and Guangxi can be transported to Jiangxi, and at the same time, the late rice from all over Jiangxi can also be used.”

"Also. You write a letter from your family to Zunhou. In the letter, tell him that your father is very pleased with what he has done in Jiangxi. However, you should also give him some wind, saying that the general and Duke Liang are going to attend the court meeting. Punish General Shi Lang well, and punish him for disobedience to orders and arbitrariness." Having said this, Li Shouhan made a rare grimace, which made the son in Aolei Yilan's arms giggle. non-stop.

Li Huamei knew that it was her father who wanted to characterize Shi Lang's actions in Jiangxi, and then give Shi Lang an end in the officialdom and court.Eliminating the hundreds of thousands of former Ming troops who surrendered to the Qing army, this is not only a crime, but a military exploit, and the rebellion was wiped out!However, taking in the tens of 10 people from Li Zicheng's remaining troops, this is not a decent credit.It's hard to say, if it's someone else, it may be the crime of beheading and exterminating the family.Of course, it's just lip service.After all, according to Qingliu, Li Zicheng captured the city of Beijing and forced Emperor Chongzhen to go to Meishan.They never said that if it weren't for their various actions, Li Zicheng might not have rebelled at all, but would have been his postman in peace and stability.

However, if they see that Shi Lang is calm after taking in the rebellious and inhumane people who they say are patricide and regicide, then the fighting power erupting from the mouths of this group of professional trolls will not only recover Nanjing, but directly Crossing the Yellow River to regain Beijing and invite Emperor Chongzhen out of the loess again, and then re-burial in a grand manner, followed by killing out of Shanhaiguan and going straight to Shenyang, and then implementing the measures of repopulation of Hetuala with thatch, fire, stone, and knife. It is very easy .

What's more, the 10 soldiers that Shi Lang took in broke into the camp, and there were quite a few fools in Mali.Some people who originally pulled the team away from the team and planned to go it alone, were originally in a dilemma at both ends of the first mouse. When they were undecided between occupying the mountain as king or surrendering to the Qing army, there was a sudden call to break into the camp, oh, no, It was the great news that the Dashun Army and the Southern Guangdong Army cooperated, and the whole army returned to the Southern Guangdong Army. How could this prevent these people from stepping on their feet and returning to the army overnight like a hot wheel?Everyone knows the wealth of the Southern Cantonese Army, relying on this big tree, don't say anything about food, equipment, or official salary. Once one day Liang Guogong's old man's python robe has an extra claw, or his clothes change color, then Aren't we the founding fathers too?

As a result, the wind and clouds gathered, and the rest of the Shun Army suddenly returned to the team with 10,000+ people.

The two batches of troops before and after, the remaining troops of the Dashun Army and the captives and surrendered troops of Jin Shengheng, Wang Yuncheng and others, add up to a terrifying number.Nearly a million people!Although there are many people here, according to the standards of Shi Lang and the Nanyue Army, they are recruited to make up the number, but nearly a million young and middle-aged people gathered together, not to mention how many labor gaps have been caused for the resumption of production in Jiangxi. And pressure, just eating and drinking water every day is an astronomical figure, not to mention the fights and fights that occur because of the lack of energy to vent.

However, given the strong material foundation of the Southern Guangdong Army, and Shi Lang himself's vicious reputation for sweeping the Liaodong Peninsula and paving the way with the bodies of tens of thousands of Tartars, these people are still quite respectable. Honestly resting and replenishing in Xiushuijiang and other places, adding tens of thousands of former left army prisoners of war assigned to them by Shi Lang into the camp, and completing the already vacant organizational system.

What both Shi Lang and Li Shouhan were worried about was the administrative problems in these areas that he had just recovered from the Qing army.For this reason, Shi Lang demanded in the written document that he should at least be given airs to the administrative teams of more than a dozen prefectures.He wanted to restore the administration of northern Jiangxi, central Jiangxi, and southern Hunan.In fact, it is to completely turn this area into South China.Right now, in this vast area, most of the prefectural cities are deputies and some seasoned and prudent officers and soldiers sent by the Nanyue Army stationed here to preside over government affairs there.In fact, it was barely maintaining the operation. The biggest and most important task was to ensure the smooth flow of military supplies and military orders under Shi Lang's department.As for the various counties, except for some counties that are located in the main traffic routes and military points, the rest are handed over to some local gentry who are close to the Southern Guangdong Army for temporary management. Both.But Shi Lang could only turn a blind eye temporarily.

"Erya, do you think it's good to let Zunhou select talented gentry in the local area and appoint them as officials at all levels?" Li Shouhan didn't know what the purpose was, so he said such words.

"Father, it's hot, are you a little dizzy?" Li Huamei scoffed unceremoniously at her father's words. "Selection in the local area? There are also provisions in the Ming Dynasty's regulations to avoid serving hundreds of miles from the original place! If you select officials in the local area, appoint them, and let them have administrative power in their hands, is that okay?! Father, have you not always Have you always hated these gentlemen the most? How can you use them again today?"

Li Shouhan saw his daughter beating him like this, but he didn't think he was disobedient, instead he was secretly happy.He knew that before the masses were mobilized, the so-called democratic elections would often elect representatives, spokespersons, or even powerful bullies of the local wealthy gentry.These people usually run rampant in the village and control the township administration. Once they have a legitimate official position, what will happen to this evil force?

"What you are talking about is the form of democracy, but what we are doing is the essence of democracy." Li Shouhan thought of the old-timers he had read in some book. Facing the accusations of local figures in the new area, he questioned them for not adopting The government is formed by means of local democratic elections and voting, but the answer to questions raised by the method that cadres from the old areas of Taihang Mountain and Shandong have been matched with a complete set of government administrative teams that can start work on the same day.The reason? It was what Li Shouhan thought of just now.In that way, there will be no change in the local network of entangled relationships.Therefore, if you want to change, you have to burn a wildfire thoroughly, and then make great efforts to turn over the land, and then sprinkle lime, so that the wasteland can gradually become mature.Then, various crops can be grown on this ripe land according to the requirements of the sower.Instead of all kinds of thorny barnyardgrass, or all kinds of colorful mushrooms that look good but are extremely poisonous.

Regarding how to set fire to wasteland in northern Jiangxi, Jiangxi, central Hunan and other places, and then dig deep into the roots, Shi Lang explained his thoughts in detail in another document that has no title but only two words written on the white paper.In addition to requiring the Southern Guangdong Army to dispatch administrative teams from more than a dozen prefectures, he planned to make full use of the human resources in his hands, that is, to attack the remaining troops of the Dashun Army and the prisoners of Jin Shengheng Wang Yuncheng's troops.

This statement, in a broad sense, can be regarded as a feasibility plan, but Li Shouhan read it quite kindly.Inside, Shi Lang categorized the hundreds of thousands of Jin Shengheng's captives in his hands, and dealt with them according to different situations.The first category is those so-called old soldiers who have seen the world and old thieves who have traveled all over the world under Zuo Liangyu's army banner with Jin Shengheng, Wang Yuncheng and others.These people, in the eyes of others, may be regarded as the elite, the elite of the Quartet who must be united.However, under the standard judgment of the Southern Guangdong Army, it is a group of mobs who do not know how to cooperate and do not abide by military discipline. Staying in the army can only play a negative role.

For them, Shi Lang gave an extremely appropriate opinion on how to deal with them, but it made Li Shouhan and Li Huamei's father and daughter gasp. "It is planned to be sent to Nanzhong, to break up the organizational system, or to the mine, or to the forest, to serve as hard labor official slaves. If they are not pardoned, they will not enjoy the treatment of ordinary official slaves." That is to say, let these people always Work until the moment you die of exhaustion!This kind of people, as the core of Jin and Wang's followers, is also very numerous, adding up to no more than 1 people.Adding in the mid- and lower-level military officers and small bosses at all levels, there are at most 3 people.After removing the core and backbone of these 3 people, the remaining 10 people, in Shi Lang's eyes, are just a piece of fat beef on the chopping board, just let him think about how to cut and how to cook.

The second type of people is those who have been in the Jin and Wang armies for a period of time, but they are not elite veterans. The number of these people is about 10,000+. However, they must be carefully screened and divided. Among them, there are also many stragglers, mountain bandits and horse thieves, and group training organized by local officials and gentry.These people are familiar with the local conditions, and have inextricable connections with the local local tyrants and evil gentry families, and some of them are simply minions raised by the noble families.As for these people, Shi Lang’s opinion is, “It’s still the same as the above-mentioned core members!” That is to say, these people cannot be cultivated and cannot be reformed. Since they cannot be used as useful talents, they should be thrown in a suitable place to burn their lives. Let the light and heat go!After removing these stumbling stones, it was possible for him, Shi Lang, to reclaim wasteland in Jiangxi.After getting rid of these people, there are more than [-] people left, Shi Lang has to make a good calculation.He was going to select these people, select some people as his auxiliary soldiers or reserve team, and left supplementary losses.In addition, a standing team of hundreds of people in a county and a thousand people in a prefecture will be established to be responsible for domestic security.In this way, soldiers and horses can be freed up as "living soldiers" that can be used on the move, instead of turning a large number of troops into a defensive security force.Except for these people, Shi Lang prepared people to fight to the end for the remaining tens of thousands of people, and sent them to the rest of the Dashun Army to supplement and strengthen their strength, so that they could recover their vitality as soon as possible.Of course, in this process, it is not known whether Shi Lang cooperated with Niu Qiandao, Mu Yagou and others, and sent some people to various departments of the Shun Army to act as eyes and ears.

And the part with the largest number of people is the strong men brought by Jin and Wang from various places in the south of the Yangtze River and the north of the Yangtze River.In order to make up the numbers and strengthen their reputation, these two recruited the strong men, it can be said that they have racked their brains.What took advantage of the market to encircle the fair, and captured all the men who did not wear crotch pants and could walk without crutches. What surrounded the village at night, separated men, women, old and young in the name of interrogating spies and bandits, and took all the men away.And so on, all kinds of means.

Shi Lang didn't intend to let go of these people who were basically the children of good families, or simply a group of simple farmers.
