Daming wolf ride

After Kong Youde’s rebellion in one prefecture and seven counties of Dengzhou, the remaining people were less than 3 people. Including the Tuntian households converted to free people, the people who came to vote from Laizhou and Shandong, the number of free people in Dengzhou was less than 8. people.

The 17 Han people who migrated from southern Liaoning successively became farm households under the arrangement of the resettlement envoy. With such an influx of people, the land around Dengzhou Prefecture could hardly accommodate it, so Dayongcai restored Penglai, Huangxian, The four county governments of Fushan and Qixia used the wasteland of these four counties to accommodate the migrants, so that the population of 17 was absorbed.

The resettlement envoy took over the farm work from the local area, and all the households in the village were managed by the resettlement envoy, and they could also be transferred to household registration residents belonging to Dengzhou prefecture and county after three years.

Dayong will restore the abandoned counties of Zhaoyuan, Laiyang and Wendeng when all the land in the four counties has been utilized.

Lushun also handled the same thing. The magistrate's yamen was responsible for the management of the free people, and the resettlement envoy took over the farming affairs and centralized management of all the migrants.

In September of the seventh year of Chongzhen, Dayong asked the resettlement envoy He Deng and the brigade government to make preliminary population statistics. There were more than 11 free citizens, 24 rural households, and a total population of about 35.Among them, more than [-] are young and strong, and the rest are old and weak, women and children.

Dayong also set up a refugee reception department in Dengzhou in January of the eighth year of Chongzhen, with the intention of absorbing more refugees to enrich the population of Dengzhou.

The resettlement department is under the jurisdiction of the resettlement department. In this way, the resettlement department has become a core government office that not only recruits refugees but also manages them. Also more.

Some people say that Song Guanglan, who is in charge of the resettlement envoy, is actually the governor of Denglu in disguise, and the resettlement envoy is the governor of Denglv's yamen.Dayong didn't say a word about this statement.

The influx of a large number of immigrants has doubled the demand for ironware. Dengzhou and Lushun have no iron mines, and immigrants need a lot of farm tools to reclaim the land, and the Liaodong Army itself also needs a lot of ironware. In the case of not owning iron mines Under the circumstances, Dayong can only buy from Laiwu official mine at a high price, and from Jiangnan through the relationship of the Zheng family in the south, so the cost is naturally a lot.Some people in the Liaodong Army suggested that Dayong simply occupy the Laiwu Guantai, and this proposal was naturally denounced by Dayong.

Since returning from Shenyang, there have been signs of disobedience to the imperial court in the army, especially the imperial court pretended to be deaf and dumb to the great victory in Liaodong. They don't reward them, they only think that the imperial court wants to be a dead dog. Some radical generals, such as Li Dashan, who was born in a bandit, and Geng Zhongming, who was born in a rebel army, even proposed to support their own self-respect and become a country by themselves here. Naturally, such a bastard formulation was condemned by Dayong.

To the court and to Chongzhen, Dayong has always felt guilty, because it is not the court or Chongzhen that caused the current situation, but Shi Dayong.

For Chongzhen, the recognized leader of the Han people, Dayong supported him with a sincere heart. He never had the view that loyalty to the emperor is an ignorant thought in later generations. Instead, he believed that it should adapt to the needs of this era. He embraced the emperor.In this era when the people's wisdom is not developed and most of the people are still illiterate, it is completely nonsense to talk about a democratic republic.The most important thing now is to save the Ming Dynasty from demise, and then restore the national strength. As for those idealized things, it is left for future generations to solve by themselves.If future generations think that they don’t need an emperor, then they don’t need an emperor. If future generations think that there is no emperor, this country will still be a mess, and those who advocate freedom and democracy are just for profit, then this emperor cannot be abolished.At least, in the face of imperial power, the central government is still the central government, not a tool for a group of guys to make profits.

Whether the imperial power needs to be restricted, of course it does, but this is not what Dayong is considering now.Although Chongzhen's character is lacking, it is undeniable that he is an acceptable emperor of the Han family. Whether it is legal principles or people's hearts, Chongzhen as the Son of Heaven is accepted and recognized by hundreds of millions of Ming people.

The emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies.

Chongzhen has achieved this, so he deserves to be supported bravely.If the ancestors of the Li family, Zhao family, and Sun family also rose up to overthrow the Tartars in the midst of tyranny, then their descendants can also be the emperor, and they are also worthy of loyalty.

The reason why he refused to go to Beijing was not that Dayong was worried that he would be decapitated. With his achievements, Chongzhen would not want to see him again, and the worst would be to give him a title of retirement. the emperor.

What Dayong is worried about is that if he really enters Beijing, he will not be able to act according to his intention.For the Donglin Party in the imperial court, Dayong was already extremely disappointed. If possible, he even wanted to raise his troops to the side of the Qing emperor in Beijing to cleanse all those important officials of the court and wipe out all the group forces they represented, but this is undoubtedly It's just raising the flag to rebel.

Dayong didn't want to rebel, and he didn't want to be controlled by others, so he chose not to go to Beijing. He wanted to be called or not. He wanted to be like Zu Dashou. He thought his choice was right, at least he was willing to sacrifice his life for Daming.

Under such contradictory motives, Dayong certainly didn't want his subordinates to have the idea of ​​being disloyal to the court, and he didn't want to be adorned in a yellow robe one day.

Thinking that his mutilated and ferocious face would be hung in the Taimiao as a sacrifice, Dayong became indifferent.
