The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 795
How to maintain the livelihood of the soldiers and civilians of the "Dashun" country is a thorny problem.

The "Dashun" country can only get a large amount of food supplements before March next year, otherwise it will not be able to survive the autumn harvest when there is no harvest, and how many people will starve to death if they don't kill people.

Where is there an abundance of grain?The Imperial Capital of the Ming Dynasty has it!
Tan Ma and Xi Zuo had already reported to the "Emperor Dashun" that the warehouses of the grain stores in the capital of the Ming Dynasty were piled up like mountains, and even the official warehouses were rented by major grain banks and filled with rice.

The price of polished rice in the capital has never been higher than two and a half silver coins per stone, while the miscellaneous grains in the city of "Dashun" capital "Chang'an" cost ten taels of silver per stone.

The Han people all know that there is food for security, and the war situation in the north is unstable, and the capital will inevitably be affected by military disasters. Not only the government and dignitaries began to stockpile food, but the common people also spared no effort to hoard food.

Originally, the stockpiling of grain by all the people in the capital would lead to a sharp rise in grain prices, but with the influx of imported grain from "Nanming", and the Huaxia Grain Bank's firm enforcement of the ceiling price, even if a lot of the gold and silver of the people in the capital was used for vicious hoarding of grain, it would not There was no food scare.

Everyone stockpiled grains for emergencies, which instead brought tangible benefits to the capital. The Ming government's finances were exhausted, and the actual grain stocks under its control were quite limited.

However, in the atmosphere of stockpiling food for the whole people, the food accumulated by the capital is enough to feed all the soldiers and civilians in this city for nearly two years.

A group of mob leaders heard that there has never been any hunger in the capital, and that there is enough food to feed millions of people, and everyone is drooling.

The thieves will settle accounts, the capital has a lot of food, and whether it is government or private, it will all belong to us.

Hundreds of thousands of people rushed to Gyeonggi to solve the food problem on the spot, and the food crisis in Shanxi, Shaanxi and Henan would be alleviated. As long as there is a harvest, the situation of cannibalism can basically be eliminated.

The court meeting of the pseudo-"Dashun" court still hasn't got rid of the original appearance of the King of the Mountain's discussion. Everyone swears and quarrels to reach a consensus that the attack on the east must take down the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

Because this is in the collective interest, most of the rogues have endured the taste of starvation. In order to obtain the food they need to survive, the bandits have achieved a unified understanding.

Seeing the enthusiasm of his subordinates attacking eastward to take down the capital of the Ming Dynasty, Li Duyan thought that the morale of the army could be refreshed for a while. He realized that if he took the capital, it would mean that he, the "Da Shun" emperor, replaced Daming.

As for the attitude of "Nanming"?Of course, it was selectively forgotten by the thieves who cared about their heads and ignored their bones.

Li Duyan even wished to rule the river with "Nanming" in a whimsical way. He didn't have foresight and foresight, and he couldn't talk about great talent.

He didn't think about the consequences, anyway, he tasted everything he could eat, and put everything he wanted to sleep into bed. As a humble postman, he would have made a lot of money if he could make a living.

If he does not die, he will not die. In history, if he gave up capturing the capital of the Ming Dynasty, he would not die so quickly even if he established himself as king in Shanshan, because the stubborn Daming would still fight against Jiannu, and Wu Sangui would not be forced to be helpless Choose to surrender to Man Qing.

If Li Duyan didn't tear his face and torture his salary in the capital, he wouldn't arouse the public indignation of the entire Ming bureaucracy, and wouldn't expose his thief nature.

If Li Duyan's bandit soldiers hadn't robbed and tortured the capital in the capital, they wouldn't have become rich and lost their determination to fight to the death because they had robbed too much gold and silver treasures.

Of course, during the war of stones, they would not lose all their wealth in one battle with the Manchu Eight Banners and Guanning Iron Cavalry. Since then, they have been devastated. In the end, even the peasants had the opportunity to kill the "Dashun" emperor with a hoe.

It's up to people to make things happen, the capital is a bureau, the purpose is to put Li Duyan in, there is a tall and strong city here, there is enough food, no matter who comes here, they will consider relying on the strong city to hold on.

The wheel of history has entered the era of hot weapon wars, and the solid medieval city can no longer be an obstacle.

This era is the watershed between hot weapons and cold weapons wars. Too many generals are still superstitious that there are people, food and a strong city will be invincible.

Little did he know that this idea was outdated a long time ago. Under the raging artillery fire, the once tall and majestic city wall had lost its former glory, and it was not as effective as the criss-cross trenches.

Most of Li Duyan's main forces are a group of mobs who have just put down their hoes, a group of bumpkins who have never seen the world. Of course, these people are reluctant to bear the capital city, the millions of shi grains hoarded here, the mansions, beauties, gold silver treasure.

If you worry about gains and losses, you will lose your flexibility. When the rogues stop wandering around, their death will not be far away.

Surrounded by the "God of War" army in Gyeonggi, all the old bandits will be trapped in the end. It is their fate to be surrounded and wiped out. Of course, they will be left alive after they surrender, and the bandits who are not big bosses will be exiled." "New Xiamen" is ideal for building the Grand Canal connecting the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean.

This trick is called leading the snake out of the hole, so as to avoid the trouble of chasing Li Duyan all over the mountains and mountains. Huang Sheng also took the step of killing Li Duyan's capital in one battle, which is more ruthless than the "Piece of Stone Battle", because Li Duyan's The bandits had nowhere to escape.

By luring the main force of the enemy to the familiar battlefield, "God of War" not only has the home field advantage, but also has a lot of time to take advantage of the bandits to seize the capital and occupy all the main roads to execute the plan of closing doors and beating dogs.

There is an old saying that goes well, "Heaven wants to make it perish, it must first make it crazy." If the intruder is not allowed to inflate himself to a certain extent, how can he be easily eliminated!
Undisciplined thieves will of course show their fangs after they seize the capital, and none of the bad things such as torture, robbery, and woman robbery will be left behind.

The common people in the capital will find out that the so-called "Chuang Wang" who doesn't pay for food turns out to be a habitual bandit who eats people and doesn't spit out bones. In the end, it's hard to say whether Li Duyan will be beaten to death by the good people of the capital with a brick.

Bandit soldiers in the capital eat well, drink hot food, sleep with beautiful women and grab gold and silver treasures, and their combat effectiveness will plummet. When the "God of War" soldiers come to encircle and suppress them, these bandit soldiers are like rats crossing the street. They are surrounded in the capital and have no chance of escaping. have.

Song Xiance and Niu Jinxing, the two dog-headed army divisions who broke the thieves, offered advice. They asked the "King Chuang" to send smart and capable people to disguise themselves as the surviving children of Shanshan and Henan officials and flee to the capital.

Let these people bring gold and silver to buy houses and settle down in the inner city and outer city of the capital. When they attack the capital in the future, they will get twice the result with half the effort.

After all, the Ming army was a government army, and the guarded cities tried their best to let the common people from all over the country enter the city to escape.

Too many prefects, governors, and other civil officials who didn't know how to adapt to Jinshi's background all made a high-profile stand for the people and defended the land for the court. No one dared to bear the responsibility of refusing the common people to take refuge in the city and causing the common people to be massacred by bandit soldiers.
