Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

"The general is mighty."

Whether Zhang Bingwen likes it or not, accepts it or not, at this moment, in front of the domineering Zhang Shouren, he can only bow his head and bow down.

"The general is mighty!"

Immediately afterwards, there was Zhou Hongmo, a general in Linqing.Whether intentionally or not, Zhang Shouren let him go, and the dozens of bloody heads in front of him reminded this very slippery general to be careful and careful everywhere.

"You are still diligent in your work, and you must be more careful in the future. If you make a mistake, you will not be lightly forgiven." [

Killing the magistrates and officials of the gentry is for the reason of affirming the law, and of course it is also for the sake of establishing prestige.In Shandong area, Zhang Shouren's actions in the future will not make people happy like before, he will kill when he should, and he has accumulated strength to a certain extent, and he can do whatever he wants.

Leaving General Zhou was nothing more than a deception, and he couldn't kill all civil and military personnel as soon as he arrived in Linqing.

"Yes, the end general will know, thank you General for your kindness."

Zhou Hongmo was sweating profusely. The self-satisfied attitude that he had successfully defended the city when the bandits were defeated just now was gone. At this moment, he could only bow his head.

When Linqing General bowed, Zhang Shouren was already holding Zhang Bingwen's hand, and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhong Yang, the two of us will go to the city to appease the soldiers and civilians in the city."

Zhang Bingwen gave a wry smile, stepped back half a step, and said with a half bow: "I would like to follow the tail of the great general."

"Haha, it's so good!"

Zhang Shouren was in front, Zhang Shifu and other generals looked at each other and smiled, and they all followed each other.It has been a long time since Linqing was besieged. Although there was loud thunder and little rain during the several sieges, the soldiers and people in the city were disturbed. In addition, the state officials and other city officials were very cruel, and they were still harassing and exploiting the people when they were trapped in the siege , the military and civilian grievances in the city are not small.

When they saw Zhang Shouren, who was dressed in iron armor, covered with a unicorn suit, and had a dignified appearance, entered hand in hand with a senior official in scarlet robes, first the people around the city wall who were helping to defend the city came up and knelt down to greet them, and then the people along the street came up to greet them. Merchants and people came out to greet them. They hurriedly brought out the incense table, lit the incense burner, or served wine and food. The whole family knelt down in front of the door, and when they saw Zhang Shouren and others, they kowtowed deeply. , He praised the general more than once.

After the heads of Li Zhizhou and other villainous officials and noble gentry were hung on the top of the city, the people in the city immediately became excited when they heard the news.

"The general is mighty!"

It may be that people from Fushan made a start, but then, the whole of Linqing was heard of this sound, until it was dark, there were people setting off firecrackers, adults and children were all excited to call the mighty general discourse.

Linqing is the thoroughfare between the north and the south, and the center of water transportation. A Linqing warehouse often stores hundreds of thousands or even millions of shi of grain, and the rest of the various materials are useless.

The business houses are concentrated, there are many business travelers, and the trade is developed. Such a place must be a place where people's hearts are frivolous. If Zhang Shouren wants to control a place like Linqing like he controlled the two prefectures of Denglai, the old method will definitely not work.

After two months of siege, the city was in a state of panic, and the prefects were killing merchants and people. After the general broke the siege, he executed and beheaded everyone, showing his might.

In the evening, Zhang Shouren moved into the prefectural office unceremoniously, and the family members of the Yuan prefect were expelled. The whole family was crying and crying, but Zhang Shouren saw it, and felt no sympathy in his heart.

Coming all the way from Henan, after watching the mother and child die in front of their eyes, how could they have any sympathy for the family members of these dog officials?

How about a family crying Xiangru all the way?How about crying all the way?

When he came to Linqing, he acted vigorously and resolutely, showing his true qualities as a soldier. In the past two years, because he wanted to make progress in this great empire and accumulate strength, the original military arrogance gradually faded a lot. Even Sun Liangdong and Zhu Wangli said privately that Zhang Shouren is doing things now. It is tepid and comprehensive, which is already very different from that day. [

This kind of change, in fact, many old subordinates have seen it, but everyone dare not discuss it casually. The change of Zhang Shouren in Linqing this time is vaguely the return of the vigorous and jealous official of the hundred households. When he followed Zhang Shouren, many People feel deeply, and their hearts are filled with a sense of joy.

"What is Jinan planning?"

The state government office is the same as all the government offices in the world. The main gate, the lobby, the screen wall, and the instrument gate are in front of the sixth room and the lobby. After entering, both the Central Military Department and the Secret Service Staff Office moved in, each spreading out their stalls, and those young and capable attendants started their own work, and the entire hall to the second hall was full of busy and energetic figures .

Zhang Shouren himself was tired. After working hard for more than half a year, he hardly had a rest, the tension was too tight...he was a little tired.

Sitting on the pit of the original signing room in the east, leaning on a small table with his right arm, soaking his feet in a large wooden barrel... and just wiping his face with a hot towel, the whole talent is a little bit more energetic Some.

Even so, it is still obvious that he is tired, but at this moment, even if the generals feel sorry for him, there is no way to tell him to rest... Many things have not even settled on the general policy.

The person who asked the question was Zhang Shifu, who was sitting on Zhang Shouren's lower left hand, opposite Lin Wenyuan, and the rest Zhang Shilu, Zhang Shiqiang and others sat down one by one.

Those present here are actually the host officials from various places. Zhang Shifu is in charge of the overall situation. Although Zhang Shilu is the chief general of the Che Pao Battalion, he is also in charge of the logistics department. The military officers are responsible for hosting and assisting the warehouses and other places. They really control the first battalion, but none of the generals who are only in charge of military affairs are here. Presumably, they gathered together for a drink after sorting out and inspecting the battalion affairs.

Today's big victory, although it was a good game, we must pay attention to the details. Except for the on-duty troops and the chief general, the rest of the ministries have a one-night holiday, they can return late, and they can drink alcohol. Violation of military discipline.

After hearing Zhang Shifu's words, Zhang Shouren didn't rush to answer.

He pinched the bridge of his nose with his hands and fell into a brief thought.In the past few months, I have been surrounded by generals. Even the generals who are in charge of overall affairs are far from enough on the political level, far behind Li Xin, Zhang Deqi and others.Many things are not as simple as the military level...

After a long time, he said to everyone: "The people of Jinan have long attached themselves, and it is not a problem for our army to take over. In my capacity, it is not a problem for ordinary civil and military officials to be under my control. The trouble lies in the governor, the inspector, and the military equipment. Dao, Jianjun Dao, Jinan is no better than Dengzhou, it must be able to cover the sky with one hand."

Lin Wenyuan smiled and said, "I'm afraid the most troublesome thing is the palace and the clan."

Zhang Shouren nodded and said, "That's right, it's this generation. Of course, there are also businessmen and gentry attached to them."

Lin Wenyuan sneered and said, "The Jining Mansion in Yanzhou and the merchants of Zhunyang have contributed a lot. The three palaces also put in a lot of energy."

"When our army enters Jinan, the military pay provided by the imperial court to Lu Town will of course belong to us..." Zhang Shifu pondered and said, "The Lu army's food and salary have always been transferred from Linqing warehouse. There are many checkpoints along the way. Of course we will not pay a single penny. money, but it’s best to take the opportunity to clear them up.”

"Is there still food for the imperial court?" Zhang Shilu, Luo Guoqi and others were quite interested, and they all asked with a smile, "How much?"

"Shandong Town only has more than 1 soldiers, and each small army can only support one stone of food and one tael of silver a month. The horse army and servants only cost one tael, which is far behind Liao Town..."

"I'm afraid I won't be able to make up for it like this, right? I remember that Marshal Qiu's soldiers and beggars were similar in the past."

"That's natural. Shandong is an inner town. There are no bandits and no captives in the east. How can the court pay all the money? It's almost [-]% a year at most."

"Give [-]%, the chief soldier will take another [-]%, the lieutenant will take another [-]%, and the military officer directly in charge will take another [-]%. Isn't that nothing?"

"So, the imperial court gave silver and cloth, and the soldiers couldn't even afford fat jackets, and they were all dressed in rags. What do you think it is for? You can only buy leisure, and send two slings of money to the military officer above. Usually, you don't Doing some small business in the city, or working hard, the figure is that at least half a stone of coarse grain can be distributed every month. Speaking of it, our Ming Dynasty was really too harsh on the warriors. Back then, adults taught books, It is said that the old soldiers who watched the city gates in the Song Dynasty could also wear silk shoes, and they could afford to eat meat every day!" [

Hearing such words, Zhang Shouren also smiled, and felt that the strong stagnation in his body had melted away a lot... He had been greatly stimulated by the Neixiang. He came all the way from Nanyang, and he was all sad and poisonous. He seems to be strong, and he gave the order not to provide relief all the way, but in terms of acceptance of these tragedies, he has no way to compare with these guys of this era.

After all, he has the soul and memory of future generations. Compared with this life, what he saw made him feel very unacceptable.

And everyone here is not talking about business quickly, but chatting casually for entertainment. Of course, these loyal subordinates did it deliberately to relieve Zhang Shouren's boredom... The general is not in a good mood these days, and his physical reserves are not good. , This is a fact that all the confidant generals can see.

"Don't talk about these things..." Zhang Shouren stopped everyone's chatting with a smile, and said seriously: "It is my long-cherished wish to eradicate these silverfish-like clans and relatives, as well as these bastards who are attached to them. There is something to hide. But now is not the time, let's wait for it. However, we can do it first, and we must deter those who are fighting back. This time we want to show our strength and show our shoulders... We've been quiet long enough!"
