Chapter 509

The officials froze for a moment, obviously hesitating.

Everyone knows Jiang Chuan's tough style.

It doesn't matter if you yelled a few times in the crowd just now, after all, the law does not punish the public, and Jiang Chuan can't punish everyone.

But now that they want to stand out alone, many people hesitate and fear. Who knows what is waiting for them to stand out?
Seeing that no one stood up, Chief Zhou said, "I'll ask again, if your lords don't accept legal currency, please stand up. If you don't stand up, if you have any objections, then don't blame the court for its strict laws."

After saying this, someone finally stood up.

"Hmph, why should I be afraid? The man is open and frank. If you don't accept it, you don't accept it." The man who stood up raised his chest and said loudly, looking very passionate.

"Lord Zhao, I'm just a younger brother." A person followed immediately, and also stood in the open space on the right.

Then one after another, some people stood up.

"Is there any adult who doesn't accept legal currency?" Director Zhou asked with a faint smile.

No one stood up anymore.

Most of those who can be officials are not stupid, and many people can see that something is wrong at this time.

After waiting, Director Zhou saw that no one came forward, picked up an official document from the table and read aloud: "The regent Wang Yi's order is for this, and all ministers accept it!"

When all the officials heard this, they all knelt down to listen to the order.

"The French currency is the legal currency of the country. If you refuse to accept the legal currency, you can be regarded as resisting the court and disobeying orders. As court officials, you openly oppose the court's laws and regulations. In this book, you will be removed from official positions and fame, and demoted to common people. If you have a title, you will be exempted from all titles, and you will also be demoted to common people. In addition, Jin Yiwei investigates whether there are violations of law and discipline during his official career, which brought disaster to the country and the people. If it is found to be true, it will be dealt with in another case. Regent Jiang Chuan ordered."

Director Zhou finished reading the king's orders loudly, and with a wave of his hand, a group of Jinyi guards rushed out from behind, threw themselves in front of the officials who stood up, and roughly took off their official hats, stripped off their official uniforms, and the chains around their waists. Wrapped up at the same time.

It was only at this time that these officials realized that they were panicked, screaming and struggling, but they were the opponents of this group of wolf-like Jinyiwei.

Those who intervened and resisted either had their teeth knocked out by the scabbard of the Xiuchun Knife, or were kicked to the ground and unable to get up.

In fact, these Jinyiwei have been completely controlled by the Black Ice Platform, and have become a peripheral organization of the Black Ice Platform.

In fact, Chen Zhaojun is now the actual control of Jin Yiwei, and the command room of Jin Yiwei is also obedient in front of him.

Soon, all the officials who stood up were locked up in the uniforms of Jin Yiwei, with disheveled hair, bruised noses and swollen faces, leaving only a close-fitting white jacket, looking very embarrassed.

The rest of the officials at the scene were shocked, afraid and angry. They didn't expect that if they refused to accept the legal currency, they would not only lose their titles and be dismissed, but also go to Jinyiwei's imperial prison. The price was simply too high.

"My lords, it is imperative for the imperial court to promote legal currency, and no one can stop it. Mr. Zhou advises you, those who know the current affairs are heroes, if you still want to be overwhelmed, these people in front of you will end up. I don’t like to hear the truth, the Ming Dynasty didn’t stop without you. There aren’t many other people in the Ming Dynasty, but there are many people. If you feel that the position under the buttocks is too tight, you should give up as soon as possible. Those who are waiting for their superiors are still queuing up. That’s all for now, everyone, please do your own thing.”

Director Zhou's words shocked the rest of the people.

These words definitely hit the nail on the head, anyone in this world can leave.

Jiang Chuan also said the same thing, telling these officials that if they still want to continue, they should cooperate well.If you don't want to do it anymore, get out as soon as possible, there are still many people waiting behind.

Jiang Chuan's attitude has always been very clear, even if all the officials of the court are gone, he is not afraid.

On the contrary, he even hopes from the bottom of his heart that these people will resign, so that he can rebuild a new regime without any scruples.

Those officials who stood up were quickly pushed and taken away by Jin Yiwei, and the rest of the people returned to silence, and no one dared to make trouble anymore.

"Okay, it seems that the remaining adults are all outstanding people who understand current affairs. Then we will start to distribute salaries." Director Zhou looked at the remaining people and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

The bank staff behind the desk of "Lord Chief Assistant Xia" began to look at the roster and roll the name, while the people on the side handed over the French currency that had already been counted to Xia Junze, the first assistant who stepped forward.

Xia Junze took over his own share of salary, counted it, nodded and said, "Thank you."

The other officials didn't say anything when they saw Shoufu, and they didn't dare to make any more fools. They all quietly lined up to receive their salaries.

........................

Jiang Chuan's purpose is to use coercive means to promote legal currency from top to bottom. As long as these big shops and officials are dealt with first, it will be much easier for the common people below.

Ordinary people also look at the above. If big shops start to accept legal currency and officials start to use legal currency, the common people will not have much concern about accepting it.

When Jiang Chuan was vigorously promoting legal currency in the capital, the two armies of Di Qing and Bai Shan were also constantly regaining lost ground.

Let’s talk about Di Qing’s army conquering the east first. Since the recovery of Jinling and the annihilation of [-] Dashun troops, the Qin army can be said to be invincible in the entire Jiangnan area, making rapid progress.

Yingtian Mansion, Suzhou Mansion, Ningguo Mansion, Huizhou Mansion, Songjiang Mansion, and Hangzhou Mansion were restored one after another and returned to the imperial court.

The Qin Army navy divided a detachment to cooperate with the Qin Army to go up the river, conquer Anqing Mansion, Jiujiang Mansion all the way, arrive at Huangzhou Mansion, and arrive at Wuchang City.

The other team of the Eastern Expedition Army was led by Di Qing's deputy general, and they also attacked the city and seized territory all the way. They successively recovered Luzhou Mansion and Anqing Mansion, and pressed towards Wuchang City from the north. They formed a pincer attack on Wuchang City with the main force led by Di Qing. .

Wuchang City is an important town in Huguang, and its strategic location is very important. It has always been a place that military strategists must defend.

It's just that Wuchang City doesn't have enough defensive power at this time, and the defenders only have less than 5 horses, and most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled.

The general of Wuchang sent someone to surrender to Di Qing without waiting for Di Qing's army to reach the city.

The Qin army occupied Wuchang City without bloodshed.

After the loss of Wuchang, the prestige of the Dashun Army plummeted even more. The counties and cities in Huguang surrendered to the imperial court one after another.

The entire Jiangnan area was full of scenes of the Qin army advancing triumphantly, and local armed forces and green forest armed forces from all over the country also came to vote one after another. The power of the Dashun Army was almost uprooted and completely expelled from the Jiangnan, Huguang area.

Di Qing's soldiers pointed directly at Yuzhou in the Central Plains, and all parts of Yuzhou surrendered one after another. Di Qing's forward army had passed Nanyang Mansion and was approaching Tongguan, the gateway to Shanzhou.

At this time, the army led by Baishan had completely recovered Jinzhou, and led the army across the Yellow River, entered the territory of Yan'an Prefecture, and was rapidly advancing towards Xi'an City.

The two armies have already formed a vague attack on the remaining forces of Dashun Kingdom.
