Chapter 668 This year's popular Qingjun side
Inside Shanhaiguan City.
"I've been cleared, I've been cleared!"
Local local genius Ma Weixi shouted excitedly.
At this moment, he was wearing a cloak and a square scarf on the diagonal, and he actually had the style of leading the way for the Eight Banners Taijun.
In front of him, a slave was holding a gong and knocking while walking. There was another slave carrying a flag. The flag was also written by the Qing dynasty. However, it was too late to embroider. He simply wrote it in person by the local genius. However, he wrote it in a good manner. However, many military households in Shanhaiguan had low literacy rates and most of them were not recognized. Behind him, he was followed by a group of slaves carrying swords and guns, and even one with a knife, which seemed to be a performer on the stage, walking in the streets in a mess.
The people on both sides looked at him with fear.
There is even a kind of pitifulness.
However, as a local celebrity gentry, Ma Xiangxian had never seen such a look. He was immersed in joy at this moment, especially looking at the Liaodong Iron Cavalry lined up on the street opposite, he felt even more comfortable as if he had drunk snow water in June...
"I've been cleared, I've been cleared!"
He walked and shouted even more happily.
Unfortunately, no one responded. Those foolish people who did not understand loyalty at all were watching with their sleeves, as if they were watching a monkey show. The slaves in front of him were pounding the gongs weakly, and those who carried the flags were also weak. Only the shouts of the local sages of Ma were always full of energy, and even the walking seemed light. It was obvious that the good news of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry entering the Guanqing Jun had already made him float.
It feels like a dream!
He couldn't believe that happiness came so suddenly.
Because the Yang family's reclamation area in Luannan, the gentry in Jidong was generally very frustrated in recent years. The land rent was lowered and they lost money. Although it was not that they could not survive, the land rent was the same as usual. How could it be reduced? However, the land rent was higher, and the tenants went to the Yang family to reclaim the wasteland. After the Luan River diversion canal was built, the saline-alkali beaches from Luannan to the beach were becoming large areas of reclaimable fields. The Yang family was even preparing to repair the Luan River Dam too high, and more places with slightly higher terrain were included in the self-flow irrigation area. Moreover, the Yang family did not collect rent, and even the tenants did not have to pay taxes. Instead of farming landlords, they could not catch up with the Yang family's reclamation area.
After draining water and brushing alkali, even corn can produce high yields!
Not to mention that the Yang family also has bird droppings supply.
Shanhaiguan is only about one hundred miles away, and the Yang family's fishing boats often park in Lao Longtou, so the family will get on the boat, and they will normally arrive at the Yang family's village the next day.
The rest is to sign up and reclaim the land.
No one dared to take care of Shanhaiguan. Who doesn't know what the Yang family is? Even if the King of Zhennan did go south at this time, the Huangzhen who stayed to preside over the north was still the commander of the Jinyiwei, and even brothers who had been nine thousand years old for decades. Not to mention these ordinary gentry, even officials like Yan Mingtai who had to smile and lower their heads to speak!
All the gentry and slaves escaped, but the government did not dare to take care of them.
There is no place to declare the wrongs!
Now we can finally get the list!
"That thief, take me a knife!"
The local hero Ma shouted suddenly as if he was singing a play.
As soon as he finished shouting, a scolding sounded from behind. He turned around and saw Liang Tingdong and Zhou Dunji coming with a team of Liaodong cavalry. He quickly took his servants to stand aside...
"Ma Weixi, a student of Yongping Prefecture, has met Deputy Envoy Liang and General Zhou!"
He bowed and said.
"Student Ma doesn't need much politeness!"
Liang Tingdong said with a smile.
They actually know each other.
"This Ma Shengren is a local celebrity and a loyal and righteous man. When he learned that the Taiyuan Marquis raised an army to clear the king's side, he immediately recruited righteous men in the city."
He turned to Zhou Dunji and said.
"It is indeed loyalty and righteousness, but there are not many applicants. Ma Shengke must contact more gentry locally. It is best to organize a group training of thousands like Baoding gentry. There are armours in this pass, nothing more than silver. And not only Shanhaiguan, there are many loyal and righteous people in the counties of Yongping Prefecture. Ma Shengke can also contact friends. If Ma Shengke can make meritorious contributions to the purgatory of the king, Zhou promised that after meeting Taiyuan Marquis, he would definitely ask for merit for Ma Shengke. If Ma Shengke can meet His Royal Highness Xin, then Ma Shengke will have no worries about the future!"
Zhou Dunji said.
"Don't worry, general, even if the students spend all their money, they must clear away the treacherous and slander for the Ming Dynasty and His Highness Xin!
Ma Weixi said excitedly.
Then Liang Tingdong and Zhou Dunji nodded with satisfaction, then said goodbye to him, and continued to move forward with the cavalry. Zhou Dunji turned around and smiled at Ma Weixi. The Ma student was excited as if he had seen the light...
"Qingjun has been on your side, Qingjun has been on your side, five taels of silver a month!"
He shouted excitedly.
At this moment, almost all the gentry inside and outside the city of Shanhaiguan City took action, shouting the slogan of clearing the emperor as excitedly as him, recruiting young and strong people everywhere. Although there were only a few responders, some people could not help but receive such an exaggerated treatment as five taels of silver a month.
By the way, the gentry also made their promise.
These recruited young and strong men took out the weapons reserved for resisting Jiannu from the Shanhaiguan armory. Just like in history, under the leadership of Ma Weixi and others, they formed groups to practice volunteers and brave men, and followed the Liaodong Iron Cavalry to rush to start their journey to clear the monarch.
Just like they followed our Eight Banners Taijun of the Qing Dynasty.
At the same time, Zhang Shenwu, Zhou Dunji, Yan Mingtai, Liang Tingdong and others also led the Liaodong Iron Cavalry entering the pass, rushing out of Shanhaiguan under the banner of Qingjun's side and national crisis, and rushed forward along the road leading to the capital.
They arrived in Funing that afternoon.
The gentry of Funing had already known the news. Before they woke up from happiness, they were dizzy outside the city to eat pots of slurry and welcome the king's army. On the same day, the news also reached Changli. The gentry of Changli, who had been bullied by the Yang family, formed a group training as quickly as possible. By the next morning, when Zhang Shenwu's army set off from Funing, five thousand regiment training had already been pieced together in Changli, Funing and Shanhaiguan, and even some of the official troops stationed on the Great Wall line arrived at Yan Mingtai's order.
It's nothing more than silver.
With the help of the gentry, Yan Dutang first spread 100,000 taels of silver to reward the army.
Besides, the generals of the garrison station did not like the King of Zhennan. Everyone knew that he had abolished all garrison stations in Jiangnan and confiscated the land of hereditary officers of the garrison station, which made these people complain, and even went to the capital to cry and begged the emperor to make decisions for them.
This is not only the enemy of the gentry.
This guy is also an enemy of the general family, and there is no shortage of such generals and soldiers in the east of Ji area. Shanhaiwei and Funingwei hereditary officers can't wait to join the ranks of Qingjun.
So the army continued to expand.
Just as they marched towards Lu Long, the second army of Qing dynasty led by Zhou Yuji entered Shanhaiguan and brought a large number of Mongolian cavalry. Their arrival made Shanhaiguan gentry so excited that they almost roared.
Just as Zhang Shenwu led the forward into Lu Long, the entire Hebei gentry fell into a carnival excitement.
Clear your side!
Yasinkichina!
This slogan rang everywhere.
Luanzhou, Qian'an, Kaipingwei, Dongsheng Zuowei...
Both the gentry of civilians and hereditary officers of military origin all joined the Qingjun side in carnival. Even the gentry of Zunhua knew the news and began to organize group training. The news continued to spread at an extremely fast speed. The shouts of the Qingjun side began to spread across the eastern part of Shuntian Prefecture. Of course, the same news also spread to the capital, but the King of Zhennan seemed to not believe that Sun Chuanting would betray him, so on the first day after he learned the news, he did not make any effective response. Instead, he patted his chest with confidence and promised that it was fake.
“Absolutely fake!”
The King of Zhennan said disdainfully.
"I don't think it's possible, it's just spreading everywhere."
Jiu Qiansui said.
He also didn't know the inside story.
"Have you reported to Tang?"
Yang Xin said.
The military intelligence sent to the court in the Ming Dynasty was called Tangbao, and the court conveyed to the local government was called the Mansion newspaper. However, Tangbao was confidential and would not be allowed to be copied, but in fact there was no secret. After arriving in the capital, it was immediately spread by the people. Chongzhen once issued an order to strictly prohibit the disclosure of Tangbao in various yamen.
But it's useless.
During the Jisi Incident, the people knew the battle situation as well as Chongzhen, so they gritted their teeth with hatred for Yuan Dudu.
Because they all know what happened.
"This is not."
Yuan Keli said.
After Sun Chengzong retired, he took over the position of Minister of War, but the cabinet was still lacking. Yuan Keli did not have a golden body in the Hanlin Academy and could not enter the cabinet according to the rules.
Although he is from Henan and has always been equivalent to Sun Chengzong's deputy, he always maintained a neutral attitude in this struggle. Because as Qingliu's pride, he disdained to join a group of eunuchs. However, as a member of the northern gentry, he was unwilling to cater to Yang Xin. In short, this is a smart person, but he is still respected by the King of Zhennan. This person is at least much more reliable than Yuandudu and others.
"That's it, there is no need to worry. I have been in love with Taiyuan Hou for nearly ten years. I don't know who he is? Zhang Shenwu led the army into the pass? I brought Zhang Shenwu. Can he oppose me? It's a joke. These gentry daydreaming seriously. I don't need to pay attention. It's probably because they spread rumors and wanted to disagree with Taiyuan Hou!"
The King of Zhennan said very simply.
Since Jiu Qiansui and Yuan Keli don't worry about this, but this matter is indeed too incredible to think about it. How could Sun Chuanting be so stupid as a gunman for others? Zhang Shenwu was regarded as a sergeant in the past, so how could he rebel?
rumor.
It must be a rumor.
