Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 195 Warm water boiled frog

"Escorts here, what are you doing with 30 troops?"

The distribution of food was still going on, everyone pretended that the unhappiness just now had never happened, Peng Tianbao asked the family law, and whipped Peng Yibao and the previous native official ten lashes each, which was regarded as giving Chen Yunfu an explanation.

Now Peng Tianbao is very disturbed, even terrified.

30 troops?
This is almost more than all the natives in his Yongshun department.

"I'm a timid person, and I like to take a large army to protect me wherever I go, otherwise I won't feel at ease." Chen Yunfu said with a smile, and then quickly laughed: "I'm joking with the consolation envoy, how can there be 30 troops? I made it up."

I believe you a ghost!
The corner of Peng Tianbao's mouth twitched, and a smile appeared on his face: "Be careful, be careful."

You see, no one believes the truth these days.

As soon as the distributing of supplies was over, Chen Yunfu got up and went back to where he stayed, and Peng Tianbao did the same. He quickly brought a dozen chieftains back to the Yamen, and visited his younger brother by the way.

"Brother, you must avenge me."

Peng Yibao was lying on the bed, his back was covered with bloody whip wounds, and the bruised wounds were painful to look at.

"You should rest at ease and heal your wounds first, what's the big brother here?"

Peng Tianan comforted his younger brother, walked out of the house with a cold face and returned to the lobby. Before he could sit down, a native official spoke angrily.

"Boss, this strategist is simply too deceitful, to dare to show such power in front of the clansmen."

"So what?" Peng Tianbao glanced at this person: "It's because he has the confidence to show off his power. Didn't you hear that 30 troops gathered around Yongshun, what do you want me to do? Kill him and then Take our whole family, old and young, to exterminate the species?"

"30? He said 30 is 30?"

Some dared not believe it, and shouted: "Even if there are 30 yuan, so what, at worst, we will plunge into the mountains like we did back then, and see what Daming can do."

"This is how we escaped the Mongolian massacre 80 years ago, and none of the ethnic groups who entered the mountains survived when they came out alive."

Peng Tianbao said in a deep voice: "There are countless people who fell to death, starved to death, froze to death, and were bitten to death by poisonous snakes. If I knew this back then, it would be worse than fighting the Mongols with a knife."

"Then die."

"You think Daming is Mongolia?"

Naturally, among the dozen or so chiefs of the native officials there were those who were close to Daming, and when they heard the words, they immediately sarcastically said: "Let's not talk about whether the people of the tribe dare to fight to the death, even if they dare, who is willing?

I won’t say how many favors our clans have received from the imperial court over the years, let’s just say that during this period of time, every household has been given so much salt, grain, and cloth, which one doesn’t?Against Daming, thank you for thinking it out. "

In the hall, there was a sudden noise, and Peng Tianbao, who was disturbed, waved his hands in annoyance.

"Okay, stop arguing!"

Stopping the endless noise, Peng Tianbao got up and stood with his hands behind his back, his face solemn.

"It's impossible to go against it. As Lao Wu said, we don't even have the name of raising the flag against Daming. Don't forget, it was Daming who saved us more than 20 years ago. At that time, the violent expropriation was violent, and we Yongshun How many people were exploited and starved to death.

The clothing and food sent by the imperial court saved our lives, and today they sent so many supplies, what?

What I'm worried about is that the envoy of economic strategy is so generous, I'm afraid that there will be some people who can't resist the temptation, and will completely surrender to Ming Dynasty, shaking my ancestors who have been in Yongshun for thousands of years. "

If Chen Yunfu were here, he would definitely laugh out loud upon hearing this.

You, Peng Tianbao, might as well just say what Yongshun’s ancestors became law. It is to keep the power in his hands and to make himself live a naturally superior life by exploiting the low-level natives for generations.

"I do have a way."

A native official pretended to be clever and said, "After this trick is gone, we will confiscate all the things that the natives received this time, saying that the imperial court repented of the expropriation." ,How about it?"

The loss after getting it is more terrible than never having it.

Many native officials nodded, quite moved.

It doesn't matter whether the method is good or not, the important thing is that they can collect all the materials like mountains and seas into their own pockets through this method, so as to maintain their extravagant life unchanged.

Anyway, it has been like this for thousands of years.

Native officials exploited native people no less than Tibetan monks did to serfs.

The boy named Weng Chi before was not an exception.

Seeing that the proposal was about to be passed, a confidant of Peng Tianbao walked in, holding a note with a worried expression, and handed it to Peng Tianbao.

"Boss, I just found it in the supply bag, and every household has it."

Peng Tianbao picked it up and looked at it, and got up in surprise.

Everyone waited and watched curiously, and asked what was written.

"See for yourself."

The notes were passed on one by one, and everyone who saw it was horrified, only to see what was written on it.

"The people of the Central Xia Dynasty are not different from Han and Barbarians. Your Majesty, the Lord of Heaven and Man, cannot bear to see his people go hungry and cold, so he distributes clothes and food. Yongshun is located in a remote and wasteland area, and there is a shortage of products. I often think of my emperor. pity.

From today onwards, if the people are in need, they can go to Changsha Mansion to receive relief.

If someone obstructs you, greedy and robbing you, the people need not be afraid, and you will fight bravely and never retreat. Please believe that behind you is Your Majesty, a powerful country. "

"This must be a poisonous plan that some strategist came up with."

Peng Tianbao's eyelids twitched wildly.

A poisonous scheme, indeed a poisonous scheme.

"Not every household is literate, we can make it up"

"Have you forgotten that the Ming army went to every household to send a message?"

Peng Tianbao tore the note into pieces, his face turned purple from holding back.

First, they distributed food to win people's hearts, and then punished the native officials in public to show their prestige, so that the powerful image of the imperial court was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Resist bravely in the face of exploitation.

"We are the same people in Central Xia, and we don't distinguish Han and Barbarians."

Emphasizing the position of one country and downplaying the differences between ethnic groups is to draw the fire from the bottom of the pot and directly attack the propaganda and brainwashing behavior that native officials have loved to do for thousands of years.

For hundreds of years, the exploitative behavior of the native officials has long made the natives dissatisfied. Now that there is such a heavy blow, Peng Tianbao can see it with his eyes closed. What did it break down into.

Just when all the local officials looked at each other and didn't know what to do, Mu Shiqun was worryingly pouring tea for Chen Yunfu where he was walking around.

"Essentially, if we do this, will it provoke Peng Tianbao to revolt? Your safety is the top priority."

"Do you know why the Peng family can sit on the throne of the leader of Yongshun every time there is a change of dynasty?"

"Why?"

"Because they are as smart and know the current affairs as the saints."

Standing by the window, Chen Yunfu looked in the direction of the chieftain's yamen and smiled disdainfully: "If you are really an ambitious person, the chaos in the world at the end of the Yuan Dynasty would have already thought of breaking the earth to seal the king and claiming to be a widow.

They didn't dare at that time, but now that the world is peaceful and the country is at its peak, would Peng Tianbao dare to rebel?What he wants is to keep the position of the big leader under his ass and the wealth of generations. Even if he knows that I am boiling a frog in warm water, he will pinch his nose and admit it. Losing power is better than dying. "

"Just wait, Peng Tianbao will come to see me tomorrow."

"Now, just wait for the leader of the caves to come."

"Give me ten years, and I will be able to free up and solve all these historical problems!"
