After saying that after the Shun army entered the city, before the ugly scene of the Ming officials, it is necessary to introduce the measures taken by the Shun army after entering the city.

In some of the online works that Chen Yue saw in later generations, after the Dashun army entered Beijing, military discipline was corrupted, and large-scale burning, killing and looting of the people in the city began, and such a paragraph was widely circulated in the Internet of later generations.

However, in fact, as far as Chen Yue has seen and heard, after the Shun army entered the city, the military discipline was not so corrupt, of course, when the siege began, some people must have been killed, and some soldiers did looting. However, after Li Zicheng entered the city, he immediately began to strictly rectify military discipline and stabilize order in the city.

There is a saying that the ass determines the head, and the identity is different, and the behavior is of course different. When Li Zicheng and a group of homeless people were driven into the sky and had nowhere to drill by the Ming army, they could only make a living by robbing homes and looting. But now it's completely different. Now, he has become the lord of Dashun and is about to ascend the throne as the emperor, this Beijing is the capital after Dashun, and the people of the city are also the people of Dashun, how can he allow the army to harass the people too much?

In fact, as early as the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng rode into Henan, developed to more than 100,000 troops in a short period of time, and captured the important town of Luoyang, under the persuasion of Niu Jinxing Gu Junen and other strategists, he has changed the behavior of the rogue, strictly rectified military discipline, prohibited killing and plundering, and put forward the clear slogan of "killing one person as killing my father, and lewd one person as lewd my mother", and already had the ambition to conquer the whole world and eliminate the Ming Dynasty.

Since then, the army has strict discipline, won the love of the people of Henan, and quickly swept through most of Henan.

After the Dashun army entered Beijing, the Ming army immediately stopped killing, given that the Ming army had stopped resisting. The soldiers of the Shun army all wore white hats and green clothes, royal armor and arrows, and walked in line on the streets, and did not interrogate the people who took refuge on the side of the road, let alone go forward to kill and loot property.

Li Zicheng sent horsemen to rectify the order into the city, patrolled the streets, and found soldiers who violated military discipline, and immediately beheaded and rectified military discipline, and at the same time exterminated the ruffians who took advantage of the chaos and looting.

In just a few days, the whole of Beijing was in order, the Dashun army had a very high prestige in the city, and the people's fear of the Dashun army disappeared, and they began to look forward to this new regime to lead them to a peaceful and prosperous life, the shops on the streets had begun to operate normally, and everything in the city tended to be stable.

At the same time, Dashun began to take over and clean up the various yamen of the Ming court. On the day after Li Zicheng entered the city, he issued an order, ordering all civil and military officials to surrender their names the next day and meet the court on the 21st. Those who are willing to use their resources for officials, and those who do not want to listen to their hometowns.

As soon as the order was announced, countless bureaucrats rushed to sign up, and some bureaucrats who were on the sidelines also went to the corresponding point under the supervision of their personal entourage.

Shaozhan Zhiyu hyped it up and said: "As a husband, you are already incomplete, so learn from Guan Zhong and Wei Zheng (both have changed the monarch) to make a name for themselves!" ”

In the middle of the matter, Shi Min rushed to sign up when the door of the government was closed, and he was in a hurry, knocking on the door and shouting that I was Shi Min of the military department! to be able to enter the door.

When Liu Tingzhi met with Liu Ting, the prime minister of the Dashun Army, Niu Jinxing, said: "You are old, and your beard is white. Liu hurriedly argued: "Taishi, I am not old, as long as you continue to use me, my beard will naturally turn black." Cheeky to this extent.

Even Wei Zaode, who was the first assistant, went to the Dashun government to meet Niu Jinxing for the first time, in order to be able to get the appointment of the Dashun regime. When Li Zicheng was summoned, he asked him, the emperor committed suicide and martyred the country, why didn't you, as the first assistant, die with the emperor? Wei Zaode shamelessly replied that I was preparing to serve the new imperial court, how dare I die?

Chongzhen said disdainfully, as the first assistant, you actually put the country in such a situation, it can be seen that you are a mediocre minister who is in chaos, how can Dashun enable a person like you! Wei Zaode quibbled, I am a scholar, I don't understand political affairs, and it is the emperor's ignorance that leads to this.

Li Zicheng was furious and scolded: "You have been an official for three years and have been promoted to the first assistant, where is Chongzhen sorry for you, you dare to accuse him of being a dumb king!" Ordered someone to drive Wei Zaode out.

On March 21, all the officials who signed up for the registration were prostrate outside the noon gate and listened to the points, whether they were old and high-ranking officials on weekdays, or conceited literary names and good at arguing about the words of the Hanlin Academy, or those who were arrogant and arrogant in the past and feared that the world would not be chaotic.

In the hearts of these bureaucrats, compared to the hard work of the cold window in the past and the glory and wealth in the future, the humiliation at the moment is nothing, as long as they can get the approval of the Dashun regime, they can be re-elected in all directions, and the big husband can bend and stretch, so why bother to see these bullshit Qiu Ba generally.

Whether it is the Ming Dynasty or the Great Shun, officials are needed to govern the country, and where do the officials come from? Don't use yourself yet! Can you still let those illiterate Qiu Ba in the army manage the people?

It must be said that these officials have a very correct idea, and even if they no longer look down on what these people did in the past, the newly established Dashun government has to select officials from among them to govern the people for themselves. From the 21st, hundreds of officials were elected, either enriched into the various yamen of Dashun, or appointed as magistrates and sent to various places.

When countless Wenchen chose to change the foyer and serve the new master, there were also a few officials loyal to the Ming Dynasty who chose to commit suicide and martyrdom.

After the Dashun army entered the city and heard the bad news of Chongzhen's martyrdom, Fan Jingwen, a scholar of Dongge University, left a suicide note saying: "As a minister, you can't destroy the thief and shame, and you will die with hatred." Then he committed suicide by jumping into a well.

Jin Xuan, the director of the Driving Department of the Ministry of War, heard the bad news of Emperor Chongzhen, Jin Xuan scolded the thieves, and then put on a filial piety robe and a crown robe outside to enter the imperial city to inquire about the news. When he saw the palace maids and eunuchs constantly escaping, Jin Xuan knew that Emperor Chongzhen's bad news was basically true, and after crying bitterly, he jumped into the Jinshui River and committed suicide. His attendant servants brought the news of his death home, and after learning the news, Kim Hyun's mother Zhang and wife Wang also committed suicide by jumping into a well!

On 19 March, the capital fell completely. Gong Yonggu, the commander of the horses, tied his five children with yellow ropes to the coffin of Princess Le'an, who died not long ago and had not yet had time to be buried, and said-This emperor's nephew must not be a thief. Pile up firewood in the house, and burn yourself to death in the room.

After the Dashun army conquered Beijing, Liu Wenbing, the Marquis of Xinle, and his second brother, Liu Wenyao, the governor of Zuodu, committed suicide by throwing themselves into the well, and his mother, sister, wife and concubine hanged themselves on the building, and "the family burned the building together", and "42 people died in the door".

Whether it is a loyal minister who chooses to commit suicide and martyrdom, or a person who knows the times who changes his court and turns to the new master, he will turn into a piece of loess after a hundred years, and his reputation is worthy of criticism.
