The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 841 The time is ripe
Suddenly, loud military songs sounded outside the city, and soon thousands of soldiers were singing.

Vigorous singing wafts over the capital city: "The soldiers of 'God of War' must keep in mind that they will not plunder the common people even if they starve to death..."

An old bandit soldier sighed: "United as one! Who can match such an army? We can't beat the 'God of War'. If we don't surrender, we will die sooner or later!"

"Shhh, brother, we are all veterans. In the past, we were the first to pick out any good things. How can we be the first to talk discouraged now!"

"Hey! Listening to the Qin opera, you don't need to beat the Laoying brothers, and the hearts of the people in the city are eager to see through such military songs. The 'God of War' is brilliant!"

"Brother, I've heard of it. What is it called? By the way, it's called Si Mian Qin Opera."

"Nonsense, it's called besieged on all sides, do you understand?"

"I know, that's the story of Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu."

"Damn, you're the only one who can do it, who doesn't know the Overlord of Western Chu!"

"Hey, Xiang Yu, who is so powerful and powerful, has nothing to do. Don't talk about us. Brothers, be smart. If you find that things can't be done, it's better not to work hard..."

Even the old camp of thieves was full of enthusiasm. They talked in groups of three or five, and everyone had expressions on their faces. No one was optimistic about the fate of "Da Shun".

The loss of the ability of the intruders to fortify the city does not mean that they have abandoned the city wall, and they are not stupid. Close to hand-to-hand combat, strive to make up for the gap in quality with crowd tactics.

Li Zicheng won the huge capital with a soft hand, but there was a big difficulty, and he needed too many troops to defend the city. After all, there were too few brothers in the old battalion, and the defense in many places could only use newcomers.

As a result, many latent agents of the Military Intelligence Department not only got in with the small leaders of the "Dashun" army, they also got a section of the city wall for defense.

The next situation is even more unfavorable to the intruders. There is no need to open the door and bow to the robbers for the time being, but it is convenient and quick to pass the news. Soon the army outside the city knows the situation of the enemy army inside the city.

Although all the gates of the capital city have been tightly blocked by boulders, sandbags, and city bricks, the height of the capital's city walls is only about 14 to [-] meters, which is less than ten steps in the Ming Dynasty.

In later generations, this height is only three or four floors, and the danger of pulling down with ropes is not worth mentioning.

The vagrants turned into bandits and then became the "Dashun" army. In fact, they are still a large group of mobs without changing their medicine. There are opportunities to take advantage of.

The activities of the agents of the Military Intelligence Department became more and more frequent. With the cooperation of their companions, they went to the top of the city to use sign language, semaphore, and light codes to deliver messages. Some special forces even climbed the wall and lurked into the city.

With such a bad management, the defeat of the intruders is of course doomed, and they must be vulnerable to the blows of the "God of War" educated young soldiers.

The continuous large army camps outside the capital are in order, and the laughter of the soldiers and civilians can be heard everywhere. Even the "Dashun" army that had just surrendered was infected by this atmosphere. They were sweating like rain digging trenches and repairing fortifications under the "God of War" army organization.

The common people no longer hide in Tibet. They dare not miss the farming season, and have been busy in the fields for a long time.

In Northern Zhili, the policy of benefiting farmers of "land to the tiller" will also be implemented, but five acres of land will not be given to each household as private property free of charge. land, there are landlords to adopt the consistent policy of redemption.

The propaganda team spread the word, knowing that the total land rent and taxes paid by the rented and planted fields would not exceed [-]% of the yield, and there was a tax exemption of five acres for each household. The farmers broke out with enthusiasm for production. This vast land The land is coming back to life.

More and more thieves were arrested, and many refugees gathered. The "God of War" has never raised strong labor in vain. Government projects will start immediately. The management of small watersheds has created fertile land with guaranteed harvests under the guidance of "Nanming" technicians. .

In the fields, water conservancy project sites, and road construction sites, there are loud and clear singing voices everywhere, "The land of Beizhili shines in all directions, and the king of the South is the red sun. He illuminates the hearts of every common people..."

"Our hometown is in the field of hope, and the newly built ditches flow beside the fertile fields. With the wise and powerful Nan Wang in the Ming Dynasty, all the common people will be rich and healthy..."

"Sing a song for everyone, I compare Nan Wang to his parents..."

Some songs blatantly promote the personality cult of Huang Sheng, which sounds quite nasty, but the Han people don't care, it is a traditional project for the Han people to do this with ease.

Huang Sheng paid the most attention to propaganda warfare. He had spared no effort to set up a crew to publicize the atrocities of slavery just after he had his own team. Now he is promoting land policies and ruling programs, and of course he also carries Shinhwa's own private goods.

With a strong propaganda organization, it is easier to unify thoughts, and the Han people who are twisted together and united are unrivaled.

At this time, the state capitals and military towns around Beizhili have all been recovered, water conservancy repairs have been in full swing during the agricultural rush, and the "Nanming" grassroots officials have begun to take over many cities that are temporarily under military control.

The military and civilians and officials of the Ming Dynasty who had been educated by the intruders all welcomed the arrival of the "God of War" soldiers at the same time. Under the guidance of the "Nanming" officials and agricultural technicians, the resumption of production went smoothly.

At the same time, the surveying and mapping of roads and bridges led by Gu Shanhai was in full swing. A team composed of hundreds of college students specializing in road and bridge design and construction worked hard in South Zhili, North Zhili, and Shandong in the form of small teams.

The Beijing-Shanghai Railway is the north-south artery of future generations of railways. Of course, Huang Sheng knew the importance of this railway, and generally knew its location.

Considering that there will be millions of war refugees waiting to be fed after the war, it is the best time to use work for relief, mobilizing millions of labor to build a railway running through the north and south of Zhili can better solve employment problems Crisis, to solve the historical problem of time-consuming and labor-intensive transportation of north-south grain.

"Nanming" implements education for all, believes in science, respects knowledge, and strives to study mathematics, physics and chemistry, which has formed an atmosphere.

Because Nanwang encourages inventions and creations, and is willing to give honors, status and money to scientists, senior technicians, and ordinary workers who have contributed, a style of hard work has formed.

The Academy of Sciences, together with several universities, has achieved great success in painstaking exploration. Too many scientific fields have been tackled, too many new products have come out, and too many technologies have been improved.

The steam engine locomotive was produced two years ago, and testing and improvement have been in progress.
