Li Wenyuan reached out and took his letter, looked at it, and then nodded firmly.

"Yes, no matter whether the handsome is happy or angry, even if I am dismissed, I will send this letter out, Mr. Yuan Huang taught us, a gentleman is to a beast, see its life, can't bear to see its death, hear its voice, can't bear to eat its flesh, I don't want those who are rich and unkind, but in order not to make people become inferior to beasts!"

Chen Lan was slightly moved, sighed, and didn't say anything more.

Li Wenyuan's letter, after the Black Water secret agent changed hands, Xiao Ruxun saw it four and a half days later, when Xiao Ruxun was leading the army on the big ship to the Northern Expedition, had just had lunch, was resting, the people from Heishui suddenly asked to see and sent a letter.

"This is a letter from Li Wenyuan, the commander of the Xuanwu battalion, the commander, his subordinates found out that Li Wenyuan, the commander of the Xuanwu battalion, had many complaints about the land reform in Fujian, expressed his dissatisfaction several times, and tried to intervene in the land reform several times, but was stopped by Liu Xu, the person in charge of the land reform in Fujian, and still did not give up."

The Blackwater spy knelt on one knee and relayed what he knew to Xiao Ruxun.

"I just received a letter of complaint from Liu Xuan yesterday, saying that Li Wenyuan interfered with his actions and went against my will, and Li Wenyuan's letter came quickly, well, I'll take a look...... Yo! Yes, yes, reading is still quite effective, a gentleman is to a beast, he can't bear to see his death when he sees his life, he can't bear to eat his flesh when he hears his voice, it's good! Mr. Yuan's teaching was not in vain! ”

After speaking, Xiao Ruxun looked at the black water agent in front of him.

"Do you know what that means?"

The Blackwater agent shook his head: "I don't know. ”

This sentence is about a conversation between King Qi Xuan and Mencius during the Warring States Period, saying that King Qi Xuan saw the palace people leading a cow to walk in front of him, and the cow's cry was very miserable, and King Qi Xuan asked what the cow was for, and the palace people said that they would kill it to sacrifice.

King Qi Xuan said, let this cow go, I can't bear to see it so scared, and the palace people asked, what about the sacrifice? King Qi Xuan said that it would be good to replace it with a sheep.

When Mencius learned of this, he asked King Qi Xuan if it was true, and King Qi Xuan said yes, he couldn't bear to see the cow being killed, and felt that it was too pitiful, so he let it go, and Mencius said, if he felt that the cow was pitiful, he replaced it with a sheep, and the sheep was not pitiful.

King Xuan of Qi laughed, and said that he did not understand what was going on with him, and Mencius said that this was a sign of mercy, and that a gentleman could not bear to let birds and beasts die when he saw them alive, and could not bear to eat their flesh when he heard their wailing. ”

As he spoke, Xiao Ruxun put down the letter in his hand and said with a smile: "Li Wenyuan is telling me that he can't stand the tragic situation of those people when they died, and he can't bear to tell me that he feels that the people of the land reform working group are no longer as good as those peasant households, and that I have killed too many people and hurt the peace of the world, and he can't stand it." ”

Heishui secret agent said: "The subordinates don't know these big truths, but the subordinates know that the land reform is to let the farmers have land, and the farmers do get the land, as for those rich households, if you want to blame them, they are not benevolent." ”

"Not everyone is unkind to the rich, there are good people who are willing to give, and there are also compassionate landlords and gentry."

Xiao Ruxun leaned back in his chair, squinted his eyes and said: "It's just that there are too few people like this, although I asked them to accept those gentry who took the initiative to hand over their land to join the peasant association, but there are too few of them, there are only three and a half million scholars in the Ming Dynasty, how many people can be raised for the gentry to enter the scholar's home?" What is the point of a merciful person? It's just that there are the most gentry in the southeast, and there are no gentry at all in many places, and there is no one to kill if I want to. ”

"So, what do you mean?"

"Of course you can't kill like that, it's really a little too much, even people and beasts can't tell the difference, the land reform working group wants reason, they have to manipulate behind the scenes, control is manipulation and control, control and manipulation are as important, not as crazy as farmers, if they can't manage themselves, I will help them manage!

Pass my order, tell Xie He what land Liu Xuan still has, from the time they receive the order, maliciously resist those who will not obey, the men are killed, and the young women are not allowed to be killed, and the female dependents can be assigned to the sergeants who do not have wives in the army as wives, and they can have more children in the future, how good is this!

Those who are willing to hand over the land and all the family property, regardless of men, women and children, according to the capitation, each person in the family should leave 20 acres of land, 50 taels of silver, and the ancestral house can be retained, and the land reform working group and the peasant association shall not harm their lives, if the original land of the family is within 20 mu per capita, they shall not be harmed, we are seeking survival for the landless peasant households and displaced people, not killing people for the sake of killing! Blackwater is in charge of oversight! ”

Xiao Ruxun's words were strong, and the Blackwater agent immediately knelt down on one knee to show that he understood.

"Subordinates obey!"

"And!"

Xiao Ruxun's face turned cold, and he said, "Li Wenyuan's deputy is Zheng Ying, who is now in Zhejiang, right?" ”

"Yes!"

"Send someone to tell Zheng Ying that from now on he is the chief general of the Xuanwu Battalion, and my brother Xiao Ruhui will serve as the deputy general of the Xuanwu Battalion, and cooperate with the supervision of Chen Lan in Fujian."

The Black Water Secret Agent was stunned: "Zheng Ying was promoted to the commander of the Xuanwu Battalion?" What about Li Wenyuan? ”

"The military general is in charge of fighting, who allows him to interfere in other things? I've forgotten all the most basic and important commands in the back of my head, and he's been able to read a little bit of credit, right? You can't stand what I'm doing, can you? Now it's time to write a letter, isn't the next step to bring troops to crusade against me?!

Go back to Myanmar and reflect! Go and be a policeman under Chen Xie! No promotion, no transfer, no order! Secretly inform me of this order to the commanders and lieutenants of the eight battalions, and let them circulate it internally and reiterate my order!

Tell them all what to do and what not to do, they have to understand, let them remember it clearly for me! If there is a recidivism, it is not as simple as dismissal! ”

Xiao Ruxun was furious.

"Yes!"

The Blackwater spy received the order and was just about to run out, but was stopped again.

"And! Blackwater's duty is to tell me about whatever is going on in the occupied area, and they have done so much, why hasn't Blackwater told me in detail so far? The captain and above in the black water will each be fined for one month, and then go to Nanjing to tell Zhang Wu that there is no next time! ”

The Black Water Secret Agent swallowed his saliva and paused, "Obey!" ”

After the Black Water agent left, Xiao Ruxun took a few deep breaths, sat on the chair alone, and began to think about the current situation.

The current situation, obviously, is not harmful to himself, Shen has always reached the end of the road and has no hope, with his own advance, he will have no way out, and he is different, he has the advantage, and many things can be done.

It's just that in a good situation, there are also small crises hidden, which seem small now, but if you indulge, it will become very tricky.

For example, when Heishui's slackness first appeared, he understood why Zhu Di set up an east factory on top of Jinyiwei to monitor Jinyiwei, Zhu Yijun and Luo Sigong learned from the past, and Xiao Ruxun began to think about how to effectively supervise and control Heishui.

Another example is the establishment of the Zhennan Army's 80,000 infantry army, 20,000 cavalry troops, and 20,000 naval divisions, which are now seriously overstaffed.

Yunnan received more than 10,000 soldiers and horses from Deng Zilong, Sichuan surrendered more than 30,000 Sichuan soldiers from Liu Wei, Guangxi received 30,000 wolf soldiers and 10,000 Han soldiers, Guangdong received 20,000 infantry troops and sailors, marched into Fujian and Jiangsu, and now collected more than 30,000 soldiers, Xiao Ruxun himself marched into Huguang and Wuchang, Nanjing, Yangzhou, and collected no less than 20,000 strong soldiers along the way, and his entire total strength should be about 2.78 million at present.

With such a large scale, but the establishment still follows the previous four battalions of the infantry army, two battalions of the cavalry army, and one battalion of the artillery and naval divisions, it seems that there is something slightly inappropriate, the number of troops has increased, the establishment has obviously been insufficient, and the control is slightly insufficient.

The commander-in-chief of the army began to have different voices, and although it was only a symptom, it was a very serious signal.

Although the control of the low-level soldiers is enough, on the issue of the general, it seems that it is not enough to only put a prison army next to Chen Luan, it seems that this kind of thing is really indispensable.

Xiao Ruxun began to plan that after the Jingshi cleaned up Shen Yiyi, it was time to start reorganizing the army and rectifying discipline.

There's more and more to do......
