The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 698
Huang Sheng personally led the Chinese Army with nearly [-] troops in the center to support, and the huge encirclement was tightening.

Every group of people must ensure that no one slips through the net. During this period, too many refugees were arrested and a lot of valuable information was obtained.

It is certain that there are bandits among these refugees, and they cannot be distinguished, so they are all taken on board and sent to several mining areas for labor reform.

Every reform-through-labour district has a propaganda team instructor and a town governor who are good at observing words and deeds. They will often call the reform-through-labor prisoners to hold critical meetings to analyze their souls. Miners can.

Most of those who have been confirmed as rogues will not be executed unless they have a bloody debt. Let them continue to strive for opportunities for leniency in labor.

Only Huang Sheng's army has the ability to intercept all the refugees where they pass, because the 'Nanming' government can transport a large amount of food.

The officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty couldn't do it at all, and no general was willing to do it.The Ming government couldn't even keep up with the supply of military rations, so how could it have the power to manage the hungry people?
These refugees are starving for food, how to deal with them without food?
What's more, even if the officers and soldiers have food, they can't give it to the common people for free. Now that the price of food is so high, of course they will sell it for money.

In the eyes of most Ming army generals and scholar-bureaucrats, ordinary people are nothing more than ants. How many people care about the suffering of ordinary people?

In Huang Sheng's eyes, all Han people are the cornerstone of the world's dominance in the future, and they are the strength of the return of the king of the Han nation. Starving everyone to death is a loss.

As long as you lend a helping hand when they are most helpless, they will become workers, farmers, soldiers, and taxpayers who support the government in the future, and the rewards that 'Nanming' will get will be endless.

The army walked for more than a month and turned into eleven troops at the end of the first month. It was the Huang family garrison and Xiang Yong from the Zhoushan Islands who came to participate in the military operation.

One of them was led by Jin Jin and went up the river from Pukou to Chuzhou, and the other was led by Fan Tao and entered Luzhou through Chaohu.

Ye Haowu, the chief military officer of Zhejiang Province, has long regarded himself as a general of the "God of War". He learned that Nan Wang Haijian could not wait to make new contributions, so he led 5000 troops into Xuyi County via Hongze Lake.

These three troops who rushed from Zhejiang successfully blocked the road for the rogues to flee south, so that the siege strategy of the "God of War" troops did not need to use the natural danger of the Yangtze River to make up for the shortage of troops.

Nine out of ten generals under Ye Haowu's command are from the "God of War" system, and their families all went to Zhoushan Island to live a year ago.

This time the troops brought out to fight the bandits were all led by officers of the "God of War" department.

Ye Haowu's selection criteria for the five thousand Zhejiang soldiers directly applied the "God of War" drill code. Of course, the military discipline was strict, no less than the famous Qi's army during Qi Jiguang's period.

During the Ming Dynasty, Zhejiang soldiers were famous for being good at fighting and being resistant to war. Now that they have advanced equipment, of course they are even more powerful.

Xu Sijiu, Qin Huai, Lu Wenhua and other propaganda team officers had long led the propaganda team to conduct extensive publicity in Fengyang Mansion. All the common people knew that hundreds of thousands of bandits were coming to Fengyang Mansion, and they had no choice but to leave their homeland.

Fortunately, there are waterways here. As long as the immigrants come to Qili Lake and Nvshan Lake, there will be boats to pick up and drop off refugees, and they will get food and clothing. The efficiency is dozens of times higher than that of transferring ordinary people in Shanxi and Henan, and ordinary people have fewer boats It took too much hard work.

The governors of the five provinces were also made one head and two big by rogues and refugees.

Hong Chengchou was a little jealous of the King of the South, so he curbed Hong's bad reputation for shaving his head, and asked people from all walks of life to escort the captured refugees and bandits out of Tongguan and hand them over to the "God of War".

Daming also knew that the population loss was serious, but it was a pity that these refugees could not provide them with the minimum living space, and they could not even distribute the rations that they could barely survive for three to five months.

Nanwang offered compensation to accept refugees and refugees. This was also the condition for Ma Shihu. The generals of the Ming army saw that a man could be exchanged for one tael of silver, and a complete family could get two taels of silver. They all actively gave them away. Go to Haizhou Port.

Because of the food consumption on the road, the "God of War" troops will reimburse them in real terms, and the soldiers who are not escorted are afraid of trouble.

Because the "God of War" calculates the consumption in full, and it is impossible for the generals of the Ming army to feed the refugees, it is already benevolent to feed the refugees and captives two meals a day, so they can also deduct part of the food.

There is no need to fight, and the escorted bandits and refugees can be compensated with money and have a surplus of food. Everyone under Hong Chengchou's command is vying for this good job.

Huang Sheng chose not to go to Shanshan and Shaanxi to fight against Gao Yingxiang, but chose to come to Huguang and Nanzhili to fight against Zhang Xianzhong because he liked the convenient waterways here, and it was relatively easy to dispatch soldiers and horses, supply supplies, transport food, and emigrate.

The bandits wreaked havoc on the Ming Dynasty, and "Nanming" would be joined by millions of ordinary people. It was certain that its strength would rise to a higher level, and its population would reach more than [-] million.

Another three months later, Huang Sheng's arrangement of closing doors and beating dogs was completed, and the rogues encountered a veritable ambush on all sides.

The reason why Huang Sheng killed chickens with a sledgehammer was to completely wipe out the gangsters headed by Zhang Xianzhong, Liu Guoneng, and Luo Rucai. The tactics required that no leader of the gangsters should slip through the net.

Because a single spark can start a prairie fire, so if you take action, you must completely extinguish every spark.

An overwhelming net has been formed, and more and more rogues will be caught soon.

This time, ordinary minions arrested without bloody cases will be treated with leniency, and the small bosses will not be killed unless they are the most heinous. colonial.

Any big leader who found the rogues would not be spared, and would be handed over to the court for disposal after a few months of criticism.

In fact, the big boss has long lost his majesty after being captured and wandered for several months. Even ordinary people will not be afraid of them, and even if they can escape, they will no longer have cohesion.

This is the benefit of constantly educating the people and allowing them to participate in the criticism. From criticizing Jiannu Banners and pirate leaders to criticizing Henan bandit leaders, and then fighting against Zuo Liangyu and other unscrupulous army leaders, the propaganda team has accumulated too much. The experience of Xiaoxiao's vicious face.

Ordinary people will find that the 36th Road Disha, which was once famous for its viciousness, is actually a paper tiger. When kneeling on the stage to accept criticism, they all huddle together, looking pitiful.

Of course, no one will look at them seriously in the future, so if they escape, they will not be able to make trouble.

Of course, the emperor was not a vegetarian, and the bandit chieftains were not forced to rebel because of life. They were ambitious bastards. Of course, Chongzhen's choice was to kill them all.
