Chapter 408 Fan Wencheng: Don't blame the court if you can't survive!Blame the Southern Dog for stopping the water transport!
After Dorgon and Jierhalang reached a compromise and exchanged interests, the decision-making process of the Qing government was quite quick. The two army building strategies, such as "permitting the establishment of the Han Green Camp and sending backbones from the Two Yellow Banners to rebuild the Two White Banners", were immediately approved. Execute quickly.

The tedious process of drafting the six ministries of the Ming court in the south, meeting with the cabinet, forming documents, and approving the awards by the ceremonial supervisor...is not yet available in the Qing court in the north. Nowadays, there are a lot of situations where the one-word hall or the two kings agree in private.

Historically, the initial construction of the green battalion took place about three or four years after Shunzhi. It was also when the Qing army discovered that the Eight Banners soldiers were not familiar with water warfare and were not suitable for areas with dense water networks in the south of the Yangtze River and the continuous suppression of civil uprisings. It was slowly prepared.

Now it can be regarded as being forced by the butterfly effect of Zhu Shuren, and it was born two years in advance.

According to the document just issued by Dorgon, about 20 Green Battalions will be recruited from the Han people in the north, and it may be expanded in the future. Basically, it is compared with the current ratio of "a Zhengding soldier can have twice as many Ciding reserve substitutes" in the Eight Banners Come on, so the 20 green battalion soldiers correspond to 40 reserve soldiers, and the total of the two is 60.

Historically, the scale of "60 green camps" has been maintained for a very long time in the follow-up rule of the Qing Dynasty. When dealing with the San Francisco Rebellion, the green camp was 60, and it was still 60 during the Qianlong and Jiaqing years.

It wasn't until the invasion of foreigners, Hong Xiuquan's troubles in the Taiping Army, and the pressure on the green battalion that the Qing Dynasty further expanded its army and formed a new type of army. Later, Zeng Guofan and Li Hongzhang's Hunan Army and Huai Army came into being.

Of course, it will definitely not happen overnight if we expect to recruit 60 people and train them to form combat effectiveness, at least it will take several years.

So what Dorgon asked for this year is to get the first 20 first, and only after he has a backbone can he further expand according to the model of the regular army and the reserve.

In the follow-up, there will be a wave of enrollment expansion every one or two years, and full combat power will be formed in three to five years. I just don’t know if the Qing court can last until then, and I don’t know how strong the fighting will of the green battalion pulled up in this way is.

At worst, wait for those emperors, generals and ministers to bite their own dogs and come up with a result. Whoever laughs at the end will be his slaves, it's none of the common people's business!
Those dog emperors are all the same!

For example, in the Shandong area, the Luxi Plain under the control of the Qing army had previously erupted the "Manjiadong" peasant uprising, which began in the early 17th year of Chongzhen.

When Fu Yijian heard him agreeing with him, he could only smile to express his agreement.But there were a few other Shandong students next to him, and they felt quite contemptuous of Li Shihao:

Beijing is different. Even if more than half of the population dies, the remaining hundreds of thousands are not agricultural population after all, and most of the poor among them are businessmen and servants.

Fan Wencheng, in particular, seems to be very sad recently. Ever since he heard that his banner owner, Prince Yu Duoduo, died in battle, Fan Wencheng has been wearing hemp and filial piety all the time, and his eyes are red from crying every day.

However, those profiteers should have learned how to be good after the catastrophe of the past few days, and they dare not store too much grain for sale in the city, right?That way, even if the store is copied, can you justify that there is really no food to sell?How could he follow the way of the court?

"Three taels of silver for a bucket of rice? Is it a bucket or a stone? Damn profiteers, do you think the court's knives are not sharp enough? The profiteers who were killed a few days ago didn't die badly enough?"

But those three teachers and nine streams managed by Shuntian Mansion obviously learned more morale-boosting words from the training in advance, so they hurriedly provoked among the crowd:

But this also caused the merchants to become more and more panic-stricken. There were very few shops on the street that dared to open their doors early in the morning, for fear of being targeted by raiders.

Considering that in the next year or two, it is indeed possible that the North and the South will fall into a state of truce and recuperation, Fan Wencheng's vicious deception is really deceptive to a certain extent.As a result, a small group of people with lofty ideals who simply did not want the world to be divided were also deceived to varying degrees.

If the water transportation in the south of the Yangtze River is cut off, how will the city of Beijing survive in the future?Even if you go back to the previous dynasty, you won't be able to survive!Therefore, the Jiangnan interest group cannot be allowed to succeed!
By extension, more and more unfavorable remarks against Nanming are also getting bigger and bigger, spreading under the guidance of Fan Wencheng.

Seeing the reopening of grain stores one after another, there are naturally countless poor people flocking to buy them with the only wages they have.

……

In order to make the exam easier and the pass rate higher, what's wrong with being a traitor?If you are a traitor, you will be an official, so be it!

A large number of people died, which relieved the pressure. After the war, the price of food in the capital also fell for a while, and life at that time seemed no more sad than when Emperor Chongzhen was alive.

Dorgon's 20 green battalion this year, in addition to reorganizing the surrendered prisoners, pointed to these dock workers as soldiers.

Moreover, Dorgon did know how to act before.

Just relying on his family's mastery of the Yellow Sea's shipping for generations, he can make huge profits by changing the imperial court's water transportation to the sea!You can also use the grain trade to manipulate the imperial court, and threaten the imperial court with the lives of the people in the capital!Now it's finally showing her evil intentions! "

Behind the door panels of each store, there are pairs of eyes staring at their peers and pedestrians on the street, waiting for their peers to open the door and confirming that there is a passenger flow before opening the door with the crowd.I'm afraid that if I become an early bird, I will be targeted by those who blackmail and plunder.

For the Han people in Beijing, the war has been over for more than half a year.The plague that started the year before last has gradually subsided as the population died in large numbers—those who can survive until now are basically somewhat immune.

Such rhetoric was spread all over the city of Beijing. It must be said that Fan Wencheng's design was very meticulous, and every sentence hit the key points of interest.

Fu Yijian, Li Shihao and the others saw it, and they couldn't help but speculate: Could it be that the imperial court killed too many profiteers who were reluctant to sell the grain, and no one dared to open it, so they used a knife to force people to open it again?

For the non-agricultural population, rising food prices are simply fatal.

In this way, the part that needs to be made up by pulling strong men in the end is estimated to be tens of thousands of people, and it should be able to be completed.

Only being a slave can achieve this level, and I am happy that my wife can give birth to the master's seed. It has to be said that it is the best to a certain extent, and it is necessary to raise such a dog to raise a dog.

They can't wait to get rid of the burden of the north that needs to pay money and food to rule!Therefore, all good people who are determined to unify the world should serve the Great Qing! "

The northern Han people were of course very shocked when they heard that the three salaries were re-levied. The expectations they had for the Qing court at the beginning of last year completely disappeared.

For a while, the poor who were forced by the huge food price were quickly led astray.

And because all industries have been depressed for many days, the shops were almost closed during the days of the imperial examination.Many poor people in Beijing have no money to save too much food. They work for a day's wages in exchange for a day's food. If they don't buy rice for a few days, they will go hungry. Now they are so hungry that their chests stick to their backs.

impossible!Zhu Shuren will definitely favor those Suzhou bitches!Therefore, only by letting the imperial court that represents the interests of our northerners destroy the Jiangnan dog, can we continue to let Nanjing, Suzhou, and Songjiang make sacrifices for us from generation to generation!
Don't those Jiangnan people just know how to read some books, are rich and unkind, treacherous and vicious, how can they be brave, bold, righteous and honest like our northerners?Before Ming let those tricky bastards get so much money and food, they should return their capital with interest! "

However, today, the imperial court rarely sent people to suppress the market, nor did it try to stabilize food prices.

Beijing, Tongzhou, and Tianjin in Northern Zhili, Liaocheng, and Linqing in Shandong are all important towns along the Grand Canal.It was originally a water transport city with a population of one million.

The higher-ups transferred grain everywhere to the capital to whitewash the peace, and killed a bunch of profiteers who were reluctant to sell the grain, and confiscated the copies. It was a two-pronged approach of relying on the handle of the knife and adding grain bags to temporarily lower the grain price.

……

Of course, those who said these words were not only the grain store owners who had just been ordered by the court officials and soldiers, but also more rhythmic personnel who were mixed in the crowd and arranged by Fan Wencheng. Misleading people who don't know the truth.

"How wise, wise, benevolent and loving are the Holy Majesty and the Regent? How could they make us starve as before?"

Hong Chengchou is now in the south, following Azig, so the top veteran traitors in Beijing are nothing more than Fan Wencheng and the other three.

A few students from Shandong, who had been in closed-door training for a long time, wanted to relax after the exam, so they wandered around Qianmen Street together for a long time.However, it was almost noon, and no shops had opened yet, which undoubtedly disappointed these outsiders.

Among them, several rice shops were the first to reopen.

"It's the hypocrisy of the gods. Another false emperor was established in the south of the Yangtze River, and he directly withheld the surplus food from the land of wealth to eat. Isn't this going to starve to death the young and old in Sijiu City?"

Gong Wencai's digging confrontation received a wider response, and because Abate was transferred to replace the dead Duduo, the Shandong Qing army became more and more empty. Change.

A few days later, Beijing city in mid-March.

In the end, the core rebel army headed by Gong Wencai refused to surrender and was cannibalized until they starved to death.

"Especially I heard that the one who did the most support is the puppet emperor's in-laws and son-in-law Shen's family. Five years ago when Zhu Youjian was alive, the Shen family didn't have good intentions when they urged Zhu Youjian to 'reform water transport to the sea'.

In other markets in Beijing, the same situation as Qianmen Street is also happening at the moment.Groups of hard laborers and poor peddlers complained endlessly, but they dared not say it too clearly, and dared not vent their anger on the ruler.

This Li Shihao's knowledge is not very bad, but everyone in the industry has heard that he thinks that there are too many scholars in the south and the competition is fierce, so he wants to come to the north to find out.

He also asked the youngest son born to his concubine to wear sackcloth and filial piety for Duoduo, and secretly performed filial piety—one of the sons born to Fan Wencheng's concubine was actually Duoduo's seed.When Huang Taiji was alive, he was fined 2 taels of salary by Huang Taiji because Duoduo occupied the wives and concubines of Hanchen under his banner. This matter is clearly recorded in history.

This forced Dorgon to find the traitors and advisors he trusted, and work together to find a way to arouse the hatred of the northern Han people towards Nanming, and encourage people to help the Qing Dynasty.

"The food price this time was approved by the imperial court! If you want to blame it, blame the puppet court in Jiangnan for cutting off the water transportation! In previous years, the grain in Jiangnan should have arrived at this time! They are the ones who don't let our old and young men in Beijing live! Follow the prince to kill all the traitors in the south of the Yangtze River, so that Beijing will have food!"

And Hauge, who holds the power of Shandong Pingzei, also found that he seemed to be able to walk out of the shadow of the previous failure in the internal struggle due to a coincidence...

Naturally, Fu Yijian and some other Shandong natives also came here after hearing the news, taking advantage of this blue ocean period to grab a vote.

The so-called "Manjia Cave" was originally some peasant army leaders in Jiaxiang, Juye and other places, such as Gong Wencai, who used the edge of the mountain and various caves in Daze (Juyeze) to hide soldiers from the government's search and arrest, and waited for the officers and troops to retreat. Come out again.

The reason why this year's target is set so high is also because Dorgon felt that part of the solution could be solved by reorganizing and reorganizing the Ming army that surrendered in the north, and part of the solution could be solved by Zhao'an absorbing the captives.

His name is Fu Yijian, and his ancestral home is in Jiangxi. He can be counted as a family of scholars for several generations, but Jiangxi's Nanbang Imperial Examination was too hard, and his father's generation failed, so he managed to immigrate to Liaocheng, Shandong, to refer to the Beibang.

Therefore, people from Jiaozhou Prefecture can choose to go south to Nanjing and continue to take the imperial examination in the Ming Dynasty in the future, or they can cross the border a little to take the exam in the area controlled by the Qing Dynasty.

Among them, Bao Chengxian had already lost power because of his previous crimes, and now he was seriously ill and was dying, so he couldn't help Dorgon with ideas. In the end, Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanwo helped Dorgon think of a way to boost morale.

These people have been deflated for several years, and it is impossible for them all to starve to death.Now that Dorgon used water transport to cut off the problem and provoke internal conflicts among the Han people in the north and south, these former dock workers and trackers became the main targets of the Qing court's first batch of green camps.

"The city of Beijing is so decrepit that it doesn't look like a new dynasty waiting to be rebuilt. It's just ruins, alas." A Shandong native in his thirties couldn't help but sigh.

While a group of Wanshiju people were wandering around, they suddenly saw a group of Qing soldiers surrounded by a few small officials, filing out from the Zhengyangmen Archery Tower, and the sparse pedestrians on the street also avoided one after another.

"What kind of old calendar are you! Isn't this year's three rates going to be collected again!"

"This time the price of food has skyrocketed, in the final analysis, because it is different from previous years, and the north-south water transport has been cut off for a while! Our young and old in the capital, there are millions of people, how can we expect the output of the broken fields in Hebei to be enough? Two hundred years ago Ming Dynasty , which year did not rely on water transport from the south of the Yangtze River?"

Everyone was curious, so they couldn't help coming over.

However, the next moment, the wailing and screams of the crowd resounded through the entire Qianmen Street.

But in any case, Dorgon's series of cannibalistic operations completely tore apart the hearts of the northern people of the Qing court.

Most of them had shaved their heads and put them into braids as required by the Qing court.There are only a very small number of reclusive scholars who claim to be old people who still have some thoughts about hiding in Tibet, and the rest are used to being slaves to the Qing Dynasty.

"That won't work! It took several generations of our ancestors to come to the capital. If we stayed outside these two years, we would have starved to death, or even a dog would have to be born in Beijing!

The weather is still uncommonly cold, and all businesses in the market are sluggish. Even on the busiest Qianmen Street, it's already midnight, and there are still no shops with their doors open for business.

Fan Wencheng's propaganda strategy for Dorgon was quickly deployed secretly.

In the original history, Shandong Manjiadong was finally pacified by Hauge and Abatai. It also used a rather tragic "cage strategy" similar to the Japanese army in later generations. supply.

Countless people who had no resentment or hatred at first had to think: indeed, the bastard Zhu Shuren is a Suzhou dog!Even if he returned to the former Ming Dynasty, would he still plunder Suzhou's ill-gotten gains like he did in the former Ming Dynasty?

Hauge asked to increase troops and rotate troops to fight, and Jierhalang in the DPRK and China also put pressure on Dorgon to accept it in exchange for his continued support for the green battalion policy.

As for Beijing specifically, since it was announced in February that the three rates would be re-introduced this year, the price of grain in the capital has skyrocketed. 10 population
(Note: Chongzhen had a population of one million. In the 16th year of Chongzhen, the rat plague killed more than half of the population. After the two wars, many people died, so now there are only hundreds of thousands left.)

"Besides, the Qing Dynasty doesn't eat him for free, but he won't even buy it with money! Not only does he not allow the Shen family's fleet to sell grain by sea, but he even pretends to be a pirate to intercept and kill other families who want to sell grain! This kind of Animals are the sworn enemies of the entire capital! One day they must eat their meat and sleep their skins!"

These juren have fame and fame, so they are not very afraid, and dare to watch the excitement from a distance.After a while, the group of soldiers walked into the house, and they didn't know what they were doing.Afterwards, those shopkeepers who passed by the petty officials and soldiers were found out one by one and opened forcibly.

Because I heard that after the fall of most of the north, it was impossible for the Nanjing court to organize the north-south ranking examination in this autumn of national calamity.Naturally, they were not happy to let a small number of scholars from the unoccupied areas of Shandong go to the southerners to take the Nanbang examination.

However, all of this came to an end with the sad news of Duoduo's defeat at the beginning of the year. In history, Dorgon had to perform it again.

This time, the Qing Dynasty hastily launched the Enke to win over the hearts of scholars with a hot line. Because it was too late to build a "juren database", it ratified a large number of candidates who had passed the examination during the reign of Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, and allowed them to directly participate in the Qing Dynasty's general examination.

He is from Jiaozhou Prefecture, which is different from other Shandong Juzi.Jiaozhou Mansion is located on the peninsula in the far east of Shandong, where Liu Zeqing, the commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty who retreated to Denglai, survived and guarded a little mountainous area as his local emperor.There were still some remnants of the Ming Dynasty's civil official government at the tip of the Shandong Peninsula.

However, after the actual start of conscription, the progress was still less smooth than expected.

Soon, everyone in Beijing knew that the increase in food prices was due to the complete disappearance of water transportation, and had nothing to do with anything else.If you want to blame, blame those beasts who cut off the water transportation!
Those ordinary people who don't care about state affairs will inevitably panic after hearing so many intensive bombings.There are many poor people in line talking about shrinking:
"Then what should we do now? If the price of food goes up so much, we will starve to death for a whole year without grain in the south of the Yangtze River! Or we have to leave the capital and go back to the countryside to find some opportunities to contribute, and we can eat for a living. .”

It's just that everyone has become a slave, without weapons in their hands, and can't resist, so they can only continue to suffer. Anyway, they have been suffering under Chongzhen and Li Zicheng for so many years, and they will suffer for a few more years.

Later, it gradually developed into a big city in Shandong like Jining, and the way of confrontation also developed from relying on Daze caves to "tunnel warfare". Confrontation and transfer in the tunnel.

The officials in charge of Gyeonggi governance, of course, also know that this group of unruly people is critical because of this.In normal times, the officials of the Qing Dynasty would have greeted those broken mouths with knives.

This day is Chunwei's leisure time just after finishing the exam and waiting for the results to be released.

My grandparents, the two uncles in the family only found an opportunity from the palace, and brought our family to Beijing!If I leave Beijing now, wouldn't the knives my ancestors endured be in vain!To die is to die in the city of Beijing!We will fight with our lives whoever refuses to let us live in Beijing!
I've decided, I'll just be a green battalion soldier!Following the imperial court heavenly soldiers to kill all the puppet Ming Dynasty in the south of the Yangtze River, is it not just a taste of food and drink!One day when the water transportation is restored, we will return to our hometown and return to Beijing! "

At this moment, in the face of Fu Yijian's complaints, another Shandong Juzi, Li Shihao from Jiaozhou Prefecture, couldn't help echoing:
"Brother Fu is very worried. I heard that in order to stabilize the price of food in the capital, the imperial court made the merchants run away. If things go on like this, it is not a solution. The world is about to be settled, and the three salaries will be collected again. Such a shortage of food? Could it be that there are giants who are greedy and enriching their own pockets! When I become an official in the future, I will definitely fight against these dirty people!"

Of course, Dorgon's actions would naturally arouse a lot of resistance in the northern land.

This kind of situation is not common in other rural areas in Hebei, because the rural areas are self-sufficient, what to grow and eat, do not count on "commercial grain", and the rise and fall of food prices will not have that much impact.

Dorgon instructed Fan Wencheng to repeatedly encourage him in this way, and in the end it was indeed helpful to his work of recruiting soldiers for the Green Camp.At least, in the pre-Ming Dynasty, in the few densely populated cities that benefited from the most north-south water transport, there were countless people who were full of resentment and were instigated by the Qing court to join the green camp.

After the first ten days and a half months, almost no Han Chinese who volunteered to serve as soldiers were recruited, but some surrendered troops and prisoners were arranged.

For example, even ordinary people who are purely pursuing the unification of the world and no longer fighting, they will soon hear a kind of remarks that are not good for Nanming:
"Nanjing Puppet Dynasty didn't want to unify the world at all! Only the Qing Dynasty in Beijing was thinking about the sake of the people in the world not to fight! The Nanjing court just wanted to take out the rich and prosperous land to live his little life alone!

Since entering the customs last year, considering that the Hebei area was still under the control of the Ming Dynasty before February, and was once under the control of Li Zicheng from March to May, it was all taken over by the Qing court after that.The people changed their masters twice within a year, and Dorgon announced the abolition of the three rates left by the Ming Dynasty, which once made the people of Hebei and Shandong cheer for joy.

But now, the butterfly effect has obviously also affected the civil uprising in Shandong.Because the southern expedition was unfavorable, the Qing government further extorted money and food in the north to solve the shortage of money and food, and also recruited troops from the green battalion.The poor people in Shandong naturally saw the face of the Qing army earlier and more thoroughly.

After arriving in Shandong, there were years of wars in the north, and it turned out that he couldn't read those Jiangxi immigrants, so Fu Yijian was selected as a candidate.

He also said that the original promise to abolish the three rates was actually unreasonable, and it was just the abolition of "the miscellaneous rates newly added in the late Chongzhen period". Liao pay, but not as high as Chongzhen)
Now, the northern court has run out of money and food in advance, and of course the Liao pay has to be re-levied in advance, which is equivalent to a year earlier than the same period in history. Of course, the acting skills of "benevolent government and loving the people" were lost in advance.

However, there are always people in every dynasty and generation who are unwilling to move out of their hometown.Some people are purely conservative, or have core interests that cannot be parted from the original water transport business.

Jierhalang's statement is also very reasonable: Didn't it mean that the imperial court's money and food did not support the continued large-scale southern expedition?He also said that the newly reorganized green battalion can't expect to be directly cast as cannon fodder in the southern battlefield in the future, so they have to practice rigorously for a year first?
That being the case, why not just use the battle to train, and directly send the new green battalion to be trained to Ding Manjiadong in rounds, and see the blood to practice courage!Let the trackers in Shandong kill the peasants in Shandong, and use the civil war of the Han people to train soldiers!
Because the armed forces of the direct line have been greatly weakened, Dorgon can only make moderate compromises for the time being. The final result is that a large number of new recruits who are pure recruits are pulled to the nearest battlefield in Shandong to replace training with low-intensity combat.

Although six years ago, Zhu Shuren helped his father Shen Tingyang to suggest that Chongzhen’s water transportation should be changed to the sea. There are tens of thousands of people in these cities every year, and hundreds of thousands in five years. Engage in other industrial and commercial development, or use it to transport sailors, absorbing a lot of surplus labor.

"That's right, and even if there are people who believe in hypocrisy, our old and young men in Beijing will not have a good life! Think about it, I heard that Zhu Shuren was born as a profiteer and bastard in Suzhou! It is the most unkind for the rich!
Those Suzhou dogs in the Ming Dynasty were the lowly breeds who deserved to pay for food for generations!When Zhang Shicheng rebelled against Zhu Yuanzhang of the former Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang made a decision that the Suzhou government should pay 59 shi for grain every year!Later, with the loss of the regular tax, it was 17 million shi!
Their ancestors committed crimes, and they deserve to donate 17 million shi to our Beijing uncle every year for generations!Now if Zhu Shuren gains power, can he make Suzhou cheap bones continue to provide 17 million people in Beijing every year for generations?

"What? Why is this rice and noodles so expensive? It's hard to save some money without paying the three rates, but it's not enough to cover the rise in food prices. There's no way to live..."

Those "profiteers" who were scolded also became confident:
"The imperial court can't help it. It's true that there is no food. Buy it or not! The imperial court's food storage must be used as military rations for the green battalion newly recruited by the regent.
If you can't survive, then go to serve as a soldier and eat food!Those who can't be selected as soldiers will get out of Beijing by themselves!Is Beijing City a place where both cats and dogs deserve to live? "

A few days ago, because I heard that the imperial court was going to open the first Enke Chunyu after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, many scholars from all over the north were going to come to Beijing (this is also the butterfly effect of Zhu Shuren, one year earlier than history),

In the case of insufficient money and food, what they chose was to find a reason to redraw the line internally, divide the people into two parts, and then unite some people to rob and kill the other part directly, so that they can survive the money and food crisis.

After all, even if there is no new output in human civilization, by killing big households and robbing rich people to mine existing wealth, they can live for a long time in the end of the world.

No matter how miserable it was in the second year of Shunzhi, it was better than the situation in the doomsday text, and there was still some production, but there were more mouths to eat in the north, and some of them were killed and eaten, which was enough to eat.

Those who benefited from the benefits were able to lick their blood and cultivated loyalty, but the people who were killed and forced to the other side were full of resentment and regarded the Qing court as their life and death enemies.
