Bury the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 445 Are you very capable?
From the perspective of later generations, the Daming Law is actually a very fucking and harsh law, and various tortures such as ethnic punishment, sitting, lingering, hanging, beheading, beheading, and dismemberment can be found in it.

For example, the criminal who picks and cuts off the child himself is Ling Chi, the real relatives may be beheaded or strangled, and the collateral relatives may be exiled or assigned labor.

Others, such as selling drugs or something like the family of Zhonglie Liu's, are basically the same.

In other laws, there are very few such punishments for killing families and clans at every turn. Even rebellion only involves the three clans, which is far less exaggerated than the nine clans.

As for things like fighting and brawling, it is even lighter. If you can figure out the right and wrong, the wrong party will be whipped. International friends beat me up.

However, once the emperor and the court decide to punish severely, all kinds of small crimes may also become reminders. What was originally only enough to be imprisoned for a few days will start directly in three years, and what was originally only enough to be imprisoned for a few years may have Beheading, those who were originally only able to beheaded may have to be cut in half or delayed.

What's more terrible is that Jinyiwei and Dongchang also participated in it-the local chaos is full of chaos, but the information reported by Jinyiwei and Dongchang rarely mentions it. Naturally, Zhang Dequan was scolded, and after Ke Zhiming and Zhang Dequan were scolded, they naturally vented their anger on Jin Yiwei and Dongchang.

As the so-called government officials suppress people at the first level, there are spy chiefs like Ke Zhiming and Zhang Dequan at the top who suppress them at the top level, and the Jinyiwei school lieutenants and Dongchang fans who have been trained below are naturally looking for news like mad dogs .

What the hell?Which official are you related to?Isn't this a coincidence, your relative will soon be with you!
Therefore, as the government servants from all over the country cooperated with Jinyiwei and Dongchang to arrest people everywhere, the overall environment of the entire Ming Dynasty suddenly changed, and those outrageous goods were immediately emptied.

Just clearing out these daring things doesn't mean that Daming will be able to clean up the sea.

Or to put it another way, it's not a big deal to clean up the outrageous things in a few places, and the real headaches are those officials and gentlemen of Daming.

Because no matter how strict the Ming Law is, it still depends on the local officials to implement it—as long as there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, and as long as there are people, there will be corruption, no matter how cruel Emperor Zhu treats corruption Spicy doesn't help either, it's an unavoidable thing.

Fortunately, there was never a shortage of people who wanted to be officials in Ming Dynasty. In a sense, the officials even became the leeks of Emperor Zhu and the treasury, and they could be harvested when needed.

Besides that, the most troublesome thing for Emperor Zhu was the next meeting of the little pot.

There are five benevolent people in Little Broken Pot, and Da Ming is currently the only one, France and Silly Eagle are in the second tier, Sand Goose and England are in the third tier, and among them, Da Ming is planning to suck blood from the whole of Little Broken Ball, France plans to follow Daming to pick up the bargain, while the Silly Eagle wants to get more benefits, but also thinks about how to suppress England and Sand Goose, while England and Sand Goose are always thinking about how to replace France and the Silly Thief eagle.

Of course, how those four benevolent people other than Daming calculated each other is actually not important to Daming. The goose is completely in Alexander's hands, and now the fight with Osman is in full swing, which is more or less weird.

In other words, what Emperor Zhu was worried about was how to deal with the conflict between Osman and Sand Goose at the next meeting.

Prefer Sand Goose?No, because Daming needs Ottoman oil, and Daming has a concession in Ottoman, favoring Sand Goose will affect Daming's interests.

Prefer Ottoman?No way, because Sand Goose is one of the five benevolent people of Xiaopoguo anyway, and some face should be given, especially after George III's sudden madness against France, the little ones except Daming Poguo's image of the other four great benevolent people has actually been greatly damaged. If Daming slaps the sand goose again, it will probably give other countries an illusion that Xiaopoguo is actually That way, as long as you don't provoke Daming, it's very likely that no one will take the little pot seriously in the future.

Emperor Zhu may not care about the status of the other four great benefactors, but he has to care about the status and interests of the four benefactors of Xiaopoguo. After all, Daming still has to use Xiaopoguo to suck blood.

As for the remaining small countries, at most they are mahjong on the mahjong table.

But before Emperor Zhu could figure out how to deal with the mess between Sha Goose and Ottoman, Ke Zhiming rushed from the capital to Ningyang with the latest information, and reported the shit about Sha Goose to Emperor Zhu in detail: "Paul I deliberately showed his flaws to allow Alexander's rebellion to succeed, and now Alexander is planning to kill his father again."

After getting the news, Emperor Zhu was shocked.

Paul I's bastard deliberately showed his flaws to Alexander, and Alexander's sand sculpture did not hesitate to kill his father after the success of the rebellion. Both father and son are quite capable, huh?

What shocked Emperor Zhu even more was Alexander's courage.

Ke Zhiming continued to report with a blank face: "Alexander once uttered wild words, saying that our Daming is a paper tiger, that the military and civilian officials of the Ming Dynasty are at odds with His Majesty, and he still wants to collect taxes between Ming and Europa."

Emperor Zhu could swear by Bumbutai's chastity, it's been a long time since he heard anyone dare to brag about such fresh and refined bullshit!

After knocking on the table with slightly curled fingers, Emperor Zhu suddenly asked with a smile, "Apart from these? What else did that sand sculpture of Alexander do? What's the reaction from Osman?"

Ke Zhiming bowed and replied: "In addition, Alexander has been trying to come to the front line to command in person, but the nobles and court ministers of Sha Goose have been blocking Alexander. Sand Goose Capital."

"As for Osman, he is preparing the army for war, trying to confront the Sand Goose army head-on--Before I came, I went to the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion to ask Governor Liu, who said that this battle is not good for Sand Goose, Osman In addition, Ottoman's spokesperson, Mahmud II, has sent envoys to Daming, intending to ask His Majesty to uphold justice at the Xiaopoguo meeting."

Zhu Jinsong laughed: "Mahmoud is not too stupid."

Liu Heming's calculation is correct, the current situation is indeed not conducive to Sand Goose.

Under normal circumstances, Osman's strength is naturally far inferior to Sand Goose, especially after the rebellion of Mustafa IV and the counter-insurgency war of Mahmud II, Osman's strength has plummeted.

Although the Sand Goose was stabbed by the Habsburg Family Alliance, and even Moskow was almost burned, the total strength and military equipment of the Sand Goose have not been greatly affected, and the strength it should have is still there. .

The problem lies with Paul I.

Although Paul I was a bit clever, he even planned to use the guise of Alexander's rebellion to test Daming's bottom line, but this guy directly ignored the impact of his fraudulent defeat and imprisonment on Sand Goose—those nobles and officers loyal to Alexander naturally wanted to However, those nobles and military officers loyal to Paul I were unwilling to give up their power, and there was bound to be a struggle between the two.

The consequences of this kind of struggle can actually refer to the influence of Mustafa IV's rebellion and Mahmud II's counter-rebellion on Ottoman.

Or to put it more bluntly: Alexander's idea of ​​commanding the army to attack Ottoman is not wrong, but there are many factions in the current Sand Goose army, and the officers and nobles on the two hills have their own ideas, let alone sincere cooperation. , It's fine if you don't drag each other down!
For details, you can refer to the team under the bald headmaster back then—it was said that a group of trash destroyed the tactics formulated by a group of geniuses, but in fact, the teams were not on the same page, and they hugged each other to death. The benefits belong to me idea.

In this case, no amount of genius tactics can save them!
Osman, on the other hand, has no concerns about Sand Goose.

After experiencing the rebellion of Mustafa IV, although a large number of innovative nobles loyal to Selim III were purged, they also succeeded in making those conservative nobles jump out; After the counter-insurgency war, the traditional nobles of Ottoman were wiped out.

In other words, the team under Mahmud II is relatively pure, and they can live in one place with energy.

One is a team that is intriguing with each other, and the other is a team that is working together. No matter how you look at the two, Osman can occupy the greater advantage.

More importantly, this time Mahmud did not use Ottoman's traditional criminal skills, but instead thought of the idea of ​​asking Daming to uphold justice. , then Osman's posture will definitely be very low, and it is even possible to put himself in the position of the vassal state of Ming Dynasty.

In this way, if Daming doesn't help Ottoman solve the threat of sand geese, what will other countries think?Who would want to recognize Daming as his father in the future?

Thinking of this, Zhu Jinsong simply shook his head with a smile, and said casually to Zhang Dequan: "When I go back to the capital, I want to see how Osman's envoys will confront Sand Goose's envoys."

……

This year's Little Broken Pot Conference was quite exciting.

First, the rotating speaker of the Little Broken Pot Council, the representative of the Habsburg family took out an hourglass, saying that it was a high-quality hourglass produced by the Daming Shaofu, which could guarantee that the time was exactly 5 minutes, and asked everyone to When speaking, the speaking time should be controlled within 5 minutes.

Then Sand Goose's envoy Koshevoy pointed out rather shamelessly: "You can turn your awesome hourglass as you like, but I will arrange the speaking time according to my needs."

Koshevoy's words directly amused Xiao Poguo's envoys from other countries, and the air was full of joy. Only Maximilian, the representative of the Habsburg family, blushed.

What everyone didn't expect was that Shen Hao, Daming's envoy stationed in Xiaopoguo, laughed and said: "I think that shortening the speaking time appropriately can save precious time, please pay attention to your representatives speech."

This time it was Koshevoy's turn to blush.

Afterwards, Shen Hao went on to say: "What I'm going to say next is actually very simple, and it's about the dispute between Sand Goose and Ottoman."

Koshevoy snorted coldly and said, "I don't think there's anything to discuss about this—the battle between Sand Goose and Ottoman has existed for hundreds of years, and it cannot be resolved by sitting down and talking."

Faisal Abdul, the Ottoman representative sent by Mahmoud II, snorted coldly and said, "Has it existed for hundreds of years? May I ask Mr. Koshevoy, your Sand Goose has a history of hundreds of years?" year?"

"Also, I have to remind you that there has been nearly ten years of peace between Osman and you sand geese before you provoked the war!"

"Now you have provoked the war again, and you must bear all the consequences arising from this!"

But Koshevov shrugged his shoulders with a playful smile, and said, "So what? In addition, I want to remind you that this time the war was completely caused by you Ottomans-I doubt that you used it in the war. You seized the weapons prohibited by Xiaopoguo, but you refused the search request!"

Hearing the reason given by Koshevov, Shen Hao couldn't help but smile.

Koshevof went on to say: "Also, your arms trade with the English East India Company also violated the arms trade agreement of the small pot, and you still refused to search."

The smile on Shen Hao's face became heavier - just yesterday, His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty complained about Alexander's stupidity, and what His Majesty complained about was precisely the reasons Koshevov brought up now!

After shaking his head slightly, Shen Hao simply stopped Faisal Abdul who wanted to argue, looked at Koshevov and said, "Don't bring up such nonsense reasons, if you use it again For this reason, then I can also tell you that Osman has already accepted Daming’s investigation, and you don’t need to raise it separately.”

Koshevof was stunned for a moment.

Although the current meeting is a small meeting, only the five benevolent people and the envoys of several rotating member states of the Security Council participated, but it would be too disrespectful for Sha Goose if Shen Hao said it so blatantly. ?

Also, Shen Hao has been targeting himself just now - what does this targeting represent?
