Chapter 1129: Post-War Matters
The widows retreated, and Zhu Ping'an was even busier.
From the morning when he found out that the Japanese had withdrawn from the army, until the dead of night at night, Zhu Ping'an did not rest for a moment.
During the day, Zhu Ping'an visited the villages affected by the disaster, counted the losses, visited and comforted the affected people, and directed the reconstruction matters; In addition, it is also necessary to arrange for the deployment of defenses, and restart the six beacon towers along the coast and the five beacon towers on the border to prevent the Japanese from raiding Jingnan again. With a beacon, at least in the event of a raid by the Japanese invaders, they can be warned in advance and give coastal villages time to flee for their lives.
There were many disaster-stricken villages in Jingnan, and Zhu Ping'an visited non-stop, but he didn't have time to eat lunch and dinner, so Liu Dadao bought a few baked cakes to deal with them simply, and while eating, he visited, condoled, and armed.
After the ravages of the Japanese invaders, the coastal villages, which were once a land of fish and rice, have now become a wilderness and a hell on earth: the blackened houses that have been burned, the blood and corpses that fill the villages, the women and children who have been killed, and the rice paddies that are about to mature but destroyed...... There is no rooster crowing for ten miles, and crying everywhere......
Zhu Ping'an's mood has been full of grief, heaviness and anger all day, and his heart is burning with anger.
The act of the Japanese invaders, the extinction of humanity! Be extremely tragic! In a frenzy! Beasts are not as good as beasts!
Kill!
Kill!
Kill!
Kill all the world's widows!!
Visited one after another villages that were ruined by the Japanese invaders into hell on earth, saw one innocent people who were killed one after another, and listened to one heart-rending cry after another, the anger in Zhu Ping'an's heart became more and more difficult to contain, and he silently made a very middle two and very middle two oath in his heart: I, Zhu Ping'an, will kill all the Japanese in the world, and I want to let there be no more Japanese in the land of China!! I want to make the island slaves pay the price of blood!!!! I'm going to lead a long army to whip the island nation! Ask the big and small chiefs of the island country!
Zhu Ping'an suppressed his anger in his heart, and used a hundred times his energy to comfort and comfort the affected people, direct reconstruction, and arrange defense. When it was dark, Zhu Ping'an returned to Jingnan County from the countryside below.
After returning to the county government overnight, Zhu Ping'an did not rest, used scissors to light the oil lamp, laid out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and began to write the official document.
Zhu Ping'an truthfully described the invasion of the Japanese pirates, including the number of Japanese pirates, the landing location, the situation of burning, killing and looting, and the attack on the county town of Jingnan. In the battle report, Zhu Ping'an listed the outstanding achievements of Liu Dadao, Liu Mu, Liu Dagun, Liu Dazhu, Liu Dazhu, Liu Daaxe, and Liu Dagang. Of course, at the end of the war report, Zhu Ping'an did not hesitate to write and ink, and attached the situation of Li Da, the classic history of Jingnan, who abandoned the city and fled without a fight, and the county chief Zhang Changru and the lord Bo Yao Wenyuan retreated and disappeared from the battle, and then impeached them.
After the war, when you have your hands free, you will definitely have to liquidate them, and listing them after the battle report is to say hello to the peak in advance. After all, the three of them, as court officials, had to clean them up, and the procedures were more cumbersome, and they had to be sent by the court officials in the end. As for the six officials of the county government, they are not officials of the imperial court, and Zhu Ping'an can handle them independently.
In fact, before the Japanese came, Zhu Ping'an had already started to prepare to clean them up, and the bureau had already been laid out, and the net would be closed in a few days. However, after the Japanese invaders came, as officials of the imperial court, they abandoned the city and fled without a fight, retreating from the battle, involving several major crimes such as dereliction of duty, neglect of the responsibility of defending the land and protecting the people, and betraying the trust of the imperial court, which made Zhu Ping'an save a lot of things, and he did not need to use the bureau for the time being.
After writing the war report, Zhu Ping'an began to draft the second official document with unremitting writing, this official document is an official document requesting the imperial court to reduce and reduce the taxes in Jingnan, today I went to the village below to be poisoned by the Japanese invaders to visit and condole, the tragic situation of the affected villages is still vivid at this moment, if they are allowed to pay taxes again, it is tantamount to the second murder of the survivors, Zhu Ping'an decided to apply to the imperial court for tax reduction.
"More than 3,000 Japanese pirates ravaged Jingnan, although the whole group sniped and repelled the Japanese pirates, but the Japanese invaders crossed the border, burned, killed and looted, and the affected villages and villages in the jurisdiction were seriously damaged, houses were burned, farmland was destroyed, and mourning was everywhere...... Zhu Ping'an, the magistrate of Jingnan County, implored Jingnan to reduce or exempt this year's rent in order to show mercy and live with the people. ”
After Zhu Ping'an sent an official document requesting tax reductions and exemptions, he listed the villages that had been poisoned by the Japanese and the situation of the disaster, based on the actual situation he had learned from his visit. The purpose is that even if we cannot seek tax reductions and exemptions for the whole of Jingnan, we must at least seek tax reductions and exemptions for these disaster-stricken villages.
After checking the polishing, Zhu Ping'an officially copied the second official document.
After writing the second official document, Zhu Ping'an drank a cup of strong tea, refreshed himself, and then began to write the third official document.
This is an official letter requesting a silver reward for the first merit.
This time, he won 795 heads of Japanese invaders, and Zhu Ping'an wrote an official document asking the imperial court to award rewards such as silver tattoos according to the reward.
The military merits of the Ming Dynasty are divided into two categories: "first merit" and "war merit", "first merit" is not "first" and "first" merit, the first merit refers to the literal meaning - the first level of merit, simply put, it is calculated according to the first level, that is, the number of heads is used as a standard for reward. It can be said that this is a method of calculating merit that has been carried over from the iron-blooded Great Qin period, and is characterized by being simple and crude, bloody and effective. Although it has led to the phenomenon of harming the people such as killing good people and taking meritorious deeds, its role is undeniable.
The "military merits" of the Ming Dynasty were divided into three categories: "miraculous merits", "first merits", and "secondary merits". Unlike the first merit, the merit of war is mainly based on the performance of the soldier on the battlefield. The performance of the fighters is determined by the commander-in-chief, and the autonomy is relatively large, and there are many drawbacks in execution, and the phenomenon of playing and performing merit is endless. After a war, the officers and soldiers fought bravely, but in the end, the commander who led the army to fight, the eunuch who was in charge of supervising the war, and the imperial history who accompanied Ji Gong and others, discussed and discussed, you write the name of your cousin who farms far away in your hometown, and I write the name of the house slave who sweeps the floor and feeds the horses, it is also a matter of one sentence.
Later, the imperial court also noticed this problem, and was more cautious about the "war exploits" with greater autonomy and more moisture, and the most popular and popular at present is the "first merit" that is easy to review and grasp the standard.
The reward standard for the first merit of the Ming Dynasty is generally divided into four levels, such as the north (Mongolia), the northeast (Jurchen), the western fan and the Miao (Tibetan and southern minorities), and the inland anti-thief (Han people's rebellion), and the imperial court will give different rewards for each level. The rewards are mainly money and promotion rewards, and at present, the rewards are mainly financial rewards, and the promotion rewards are less.
According to the reward issued by Emperor Jiajing last year, a first-class reward of 50 taels of silver was awarded in the north (Mongolia), a first-class reward of 30 taels of silver was awarded in the northeast (Jurchen), a first-class silver reward of 10 taels was awarded to the Western Fan Miaoman (Tibetans and southern minorities), and the anti-thieves in the interior (Han people's rebellion) were the cheapest, and a first-class reward of 5 taels of silver.
However, the reward is not fixed.
Last year, Emperor Jiajing issued a special reward, an enemy head reward of 100 taels of silver. In addition, if you get more heads, the reward will also drop in price, for example, the mainland anti-thief (Han people's change) a head is 5 taels, the year before last there was an anti-thief rebellion, more kills, the first fell to a 1 tael reward silver.
However, the head of the Japanese is still very valuable.
As an emerging threat (in fact, it is very old, there have been Japanese robbers since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, but the scale is not large, not enough to threaten the imperial rule, the rise of the Japanese in the Jiajing period, has threatened the imperial rule), Emperor Jiajing issued a special reward this year, the head of the Japanese is set at 30 taels of silver, and even stipulates that in extraordinary times, a head of the Japanese is worth 100 taels of silver.
This time, 795 heads of the Japanese were obtained, and according to the reward issued by Emperor Jiajing, a head of 30 taels of silver, a total of 23,850 taels of silver, even if it is discounted, there must be at least 20,000 taels of silver.
Zhu Ping'an will not ask for one or two of these rewards, and will distribute them to the officials, city guards and young and strong people who participate in the battle.
