Chapter 675: Dirty Deals, National Interests

"The number of Niu Lu under the command of the white flag and the inlaid white flag is considered to be a lot in the eight banners, and the Duoduo with the inlaid white flag became the flag owner when the hair was not yet full, and he didn't have any idea when he started a war, and he suffered heavy losses in Fuzhou last time, and this time it will be the same."

Chen Xin continued to nibble on the bread, imagining the angry appearance of the brothers Duoduo and Dorgon at this time, and his heart couldn't help but rush to the very overstep.

In the history before Chen Xin crossed over, Duoduo, a bastard, didn't fight any battles along the way after entering the customs, but presided over many massacres, but such a guy was actually boasted of becoming a hellish famous general later.

Huang Political Commissar of the Liaodong Dispatch Army Headquarters also said jokingly at this time: "I'm afraid the two brothers are already angry, don't want to, after yesterday's battle, I asked the man from the Political Department of the Military Department to take his subordinates who know the Jurchen and scolded all night."

I also listened to it for a long time, and they kept talking about Huang Taiji and Dai Shan and others all night about forcing Abahai to give Nurhachi a funeral.

In the past, Huang Taiji was still there, depending on the three brothers facing enemies every day, but they didn't dare to avenge their mother, and they called him the Great Khan, and they didn't know what kind of virtue it was.

However, now that Huang Taiji is no longer there, he was solved by the king with his men two years ago, so I asked them to target Dai Shan and others who persecuted Abahai with Huang Taiji in the first time when they were publicized, and instigated the relationship between them. ”

Chen Xin's affection is already very good. After listening to Commissar Huang's words, he laughed again.

Chief of Staff Liu's performance yesterday was praised by Chen Xin, and the eyes of Zachdan, Fu Yan and others looking at him have obviously changed. This respect did not come from his position as chief of staff of the Liaodong Dispatch Army, so he was in good spirits today.

At this time, he also came over and said with a smile. "It's true that more people died in the two white flags of Dorgon and the Dorgon brothers, and Dorgon was willing to lose the population this time, which shows that he is already struggling with his old roots."

After hearing this, Chen Xin groaned and said: "If the True Tartar dies a few thousand, then even if Dolgon tries to fight hard, he will not be able to fight anymore, at least those slave owners of the Jurchen Eight Banners will definitely not be able to support Dolgon anymore."

However, the figures you mentioned earlier are only rough estimates. Is there any statistics on how many real Tartars have been beheaded? ”

The adjutant beside Chen Xin immediately reported, "The battlefield has not yet been cleaned, so the specific Tartar heads are still being counted, and as of today, before we set off, there are probably more than 1,300 real Tartars that have been cut down, and more than 1,000 in Mongolia.

And the number of coatings killed in the war is the largest, and it is very troublesome to distinguish them one by one, and it is not clear for a while..."

When he said this, the adjutant paused for a moment, and then said with some hesitation: "Your Majesty, that, many military leaders on the Ming side already know about the battle situation here, and some even sent envoys to our side, saying that they want to buy the heads of the Tartars." Look..."

Chen Xin waved his hand and said softly: "Since someone comes to buy it, let's sell it to them, but this kind of thing is not good after all, so let's trade through private channels."

Also, remember to cut off the heads of those clothed people who died in battle on the battlefield, and then they will be counted as the heads of Wuzhen Chaoha and the Tianyou Army, and they will be packaged and sold to the Ming army together. ”

The adjutant took out a small notebook and wrote down Chen Xin's instructions, and Chief of Staff Liu said with a smile after listening to Chen Xin's words: "In the past, I heard that the head of the army was not considered a military merit.

It seems that when the Daming side checked the coated heads, most of the reward silver had to be collected as a rebate to be considered a military merit, but fortunately, now that there are Wuzhen Chaoha and the existence of the Tianyou Army on the Tartar side, the military leaders over there are finally willing to spend money to buy the coated heads. ”

Political Commissar Huang shook his head and said, "Chief of Staff, you still don't understand the affairs of the Ming Kingdom, whether this head is considered a military merit or not, it is completely up to the civilian officials over there, they say yes, no, yes, yes,

In short, all the people who come to us to buy military merits have gone through the path of civilian officials, but even these people who have gone through the door, in order to save a little trouble, they don't want to coat the military merits as much as possible, we want to sell them the coat military merits, and we have to go through the tongue and make some collocations. ”

"Huh? Is it so troublesome? ”

"It's really troublesome, but fortunately, the Tartar military exploits on our side are completely a seller's market, and after occupying the initiative, the rules are all set by ourselves, and the business is still easy to do."

"Well, I just think this business, a little, a little ······"

Political Commissar Huang saw Chief of Staff Liu stammering, so he answered, "A little lacking in morality?" ”

Chief of Staff Liu didn't speak, but the look on his face had betrayed his thoughts.

Political Commissar Huang smiled and hugged the other party's shoulders, "Chief of Staff, we have been partners for two years, to put it bluntly, many people in our country hate this kind of business, but we can't decide political things based on our own preferences."

Do you know that just by buying and selling military merits from the Ming army, we can get more than 300,000 taels of silver every year, which is a full 30 million Chinese coins of military expenses?

At least 30 percent of these military expenditures are used for the Veterans Division to solve the family difficulties of disabled soldiers and the bereaved families of martyrs? Do you know how many broken families have been saved with this money?

We have a large amount of financial subsidies every year, but there are always places where we are not well taken care of, and this money is really timely rain.

In addition, the kingdom has been developing its economy and improving people's livelihood in recent years, and there are so many barren lands overseas that need to be immigrated, and the financial pressure is really huge, so the investment in military spending is quite limited.

However, under such circumstances, our Chinese army can still maintain the current size of the army and expand year by year, thanks to this, a lot of military spending is spent from the remaining part of this money.

It can be said that the military leaders of the Ming Army, and the corrupt civilian clique of the Ming Dynasty, are using their salaries to feed our Huaxia Army.

You say, we can now maintain a tax rate far lower than that of the Ming Dynasty and the Houjin Tartars, and still allow the army to develop so rapidly, isn't it all brought by this annual income?

Can we really ruin the Kingdom's current momentum for the sake of a few personal likes and dislikes? ”
