After Ming Dynasty

Chapter 60

After killing so many people in one go, Zhu Yiyuan's body was also stained with blood.

The next situation will become more and more serious. In the past, Xie Qian was in front of him, including local officials like Yan Zibin, who would even hide it for Zhu Yiyuan, lest the higher-ups know.

This is also the nature of officials. When encountering things, they first cover the lid. As long as they don't blow up in their own hands, everything will be fine.

But until now, two Green Battalion soldiers have been beheaded successively, several generals have been beheaded, and the territory of the three counties has been occupied... In any case, there is no way to pretend to be confused. will come.

Although the Qing court had just entered the customs, everything was chaotic, with internal conflicts between Manchu and Han, and struggles for power and profit.But it is undeniable that as a regime that successfully entered the customs, the efficiency of the Qing court is far from that of Ming Dynasty.

The methods of the Qing court also emerged in endlessly.

For example, the Qing court could send Hong Chengchou to appease the south of the Yangtze River. This is a wonderful move. If it is used in Shandong, what will happen?
For another example, Xintai officials and gentry all took refuge in Zhu Yiyuan because it was too unpopular to enclose land.

But what if the Qing government withdrew the policy of enclosing land and instead pardoned the crimes of the gentry?
After all, compared to the Qing court, Zhu Yiyuan was still too weak, and he could be tired of coping with just a few tricks.

So Zhu Yiyuan wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to carry out a thorough reorganization, not only the soldiers and horses, but also the localities. All must be mobilized, and there were no omissions in all aspects.

Only by forming a dense and dense net can we truly compete against the Qing court.

"Dongshan Gong, I have a request."

Zhao Shizhe hurriedly said: "Zhu Qianshi, what request do you have, just tell me, I will do my best."

Zhu Yiyuan said: "I would like to invite Mr. Dongshan to come forward and summon the literati from the three counties to take the exam, so that he can be an official, an official, a teacher and a teacher, govern the local area, educate children, and publicize our ideas... Dongshan Gong, I don’t know. Would you like to help?"

Zhao Shizhe took a deep breath. He helped Zhu Yiyuan a lot earlier, and he also wrote to the Kong family, asking for a reduction in land rent...but he did not accept Zhu Yiyuan's official position, which left room for maneuver.

In fact, at the turn of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there were too many literati who participated in rebel activities, including the one whose scalp was itchy because the water was too cold. Ting didn't kill him either.

However, if he really accepted Zhu Yiyuan's official position and stood up to do things in a serious manner, it would be different.Like Zhao Shizhe, who has relatives, disciples, and friends all over the place, he can be a thief, but he has to consider the safety of these people.

"Zhu Qianshi, I am determined to resist the Qing Dynasty, and I will not change my mind. But I do have relatives in Ye County, and there are many literati in the Shanzuo Grand Society, many of whom are anti-Qing people. I also need to persuade them to join the Qing Dynasty together... ...I have to say goodbye for a few days, go back to my hometown to make arrangements, and then I will come to follow his career, and I will risk my life, and I will not hesitate."

Zhu Yiyuan nodded, but it was Song Jicheng who said directly: "Leave this to me, let me do it."

Zhu Yiyuan was taken aback, "Mr. Wanliu, you also have a family..."

Before Zhu Yiyuan finished speaking, Song Lian coughed lightly: "As for the matter, our father and son have been expelled from the genealogy, and we are not counted as the Song family."

Zhu Yiyuan was stunned for a moment, the Song family was a big family, in the recent few generations, there were only five Jinshi, nine Juren, and dozens of scholars.

Putting it in Shandong, I dare not say it is number one, but it is also among the best.

But the more this kind of big family, at this juncture, the more polar opposite it is. Some choose to actively support the rebel army, and some choose to follow the division and return to the Qing court.

You can say that this is the plan of the big family, or that everyone has their own ambitions.

Uncle Liu Huang did not neglect Zhuge Liang because the eldest of Zhuge's family was in Soochow and the third was in Cao Wei.

"In that case, please Mr. Wanliu to work hard, arrange exams, recruit civil servants, recruit teachers, run schools, and educate children."

Song Jicheng frowned slightly, "It's a matter of fact, the military affairs are urgent right now, should we wait for things to stabilize before thinking about running a school?"

Zhu Yiyuan shook his head, "You can't think of it this way. The purpose of running a school is to cultivate talents, and it is also to provide a path for our children to go up. It is also to let the villagers understand more principles and master more skills. It is not only to run a school, but also to promote ideas and fight for them. People's hearts. The more serious the situation is, the more you can't relax. Not only the common people, but even the army must set up military classrooms and build literacy classes. Read well and stop being muddled. This is the most important thing in building a soldier."

Hearing this, Song Jicheng seemed to understand Zhu Yiyuan's intention, and nodded hurriedly, "Okay, I'll make preparations now."

Zhu Yiyuan talked about an upward channel for the children of ordinary people, so it is not a channel for the children of the gentry. If you blindly suppress them, they will definitely not be loyal.Zhu Yiyuan thought about this very clearly, if Li Zicheng could be a little more polite to those bastard civil servants after he entered Beijing, maybe he wouldn't have suffered such a miserable defeat.

Although it's a bastard, who let these people master knowledge and resources.

Except for the land, Zhu Yiyuan will not make any concessions, other aspects can be discussed.

Then Zhu Yiyuan named Pu Pan, "I hope that Mr. can be the president of the chamber of commerce."

"President of the Chamber of Commerce?" Pu Pan was startled, "Young Master Zhu, what is this for?"

Zhu Yiyuan smiled and said: "It is to contact merchants, communicate with each other, and also communicate with us, such as exorbitant taxes, who dares to embarrass merchants, I will handle it personally. In a word, as long as merchants abide by the regulations, under my rule, everything will be smooth!"

Then Zhu Yiyuan smiled and said: "Mr. Pu, you can also see that after the equalization of the land, the common people have some food in their families. The big guys need to come in with merchants and goods, and also need to sell some food and local products properly... This is a good fortune. What does Mr. Pu think of a profitable business?"

Not only is it profitable, but it's fat!
Next, the Qing government will definitely block Zhu Yiyuan. There will be an extra pass. Ordinary people will not be able to do business. Only people with good hands and eyes can communicate smoothly.And once the business route is opened, it means unlimited financial resources...

But Pu Pan was only a little excited, and then bowed and said: "No matter what, I am loyal to our Shandong capital, and I want to take advantage of the Tartar court, and I will definitely not let the big guys suffer."

Zhu Yiyuan laughed loudly, "What I want is Mr.'s generosity!"

After talking with Pu Pan, Zhu Yiyuan turned his attention to the common people and villagers again, and he said with a smile: "We can't be scattered when everyone else is together. Just like this time, when the Qing army came in, we relied on the militia folks, Going into the tunnel and hiding in the mountains, the loss is very small, and the experience of winning a big victory must be carried forward. Therefore, I propose to expand the original three elders of the village, and select a group of capable, warm-hearted, alert and fair villagers. The farmer's cooperative usually takes the big guys to plow the land and handle daily affairs. When it comes to wartime, the farmer's cooperative will coordinate and help, transfer materials as soon as possible, and protect the villagers."

As soon as this proposal came out, Pang Qing, Wang Laoben, and Yu Dayou and several old farmers nodded, "Okay! Okay! In the past, the gang of gentry raised thugs and bullied us at every turn. Now the common people are clenched into a fist. Whoever bullies us will bully us." Smash whose head!"

Then Zhu Yiyuan looked at his father and mother again, father Zhu didn't care about anything, although listening to him, he was already a little distracted, but my mother felt proud when she saw her son talking freely.

I already knew that this kid could accomplish things, and I was not mistaken.

"That... mother, I mean, it seems that women should also unite."

The old lady was startled, "What can a woman do?"

Zhu Yiyuan immediately said: "You can hold up half the sky! You have always been in charge of our family. Even these days, you have taken the big guys, resettled the wounded, escorted the refugees, cooked porridge and medicine, and mended clothes. You have really done a lot of things. In the future, soldiers and horses will go to war, and civilian husbands will be transferred, and most of the people left in the village will be women. If it is still scattered, it will inevitably affect the soldiers and civilian husbands who are fighting ahead, and make them fearful."

"So my opinion is that women also need to unite, imitate the farming society, set up a women's society, and protect themselves."

The old lady thought for a while, then nodded with a smile, "Okay, leave this to me."

Zhu Yiyuan then said: "Our soldiers also need to be rectified, but we can't make so many armored uniforms for a while... I suggest that all soldiers should wrap their heads in red scarves and civilian husbands' arms in red cloth. Sooner or later, our The red will completely defeat the green of the green battalion, and restore the mountains and rivers!"
