"Yu Jackie Chan! Luocheng County Order! During the three years of your rule, the people of Luocheng loved you very much. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info" Wang Xinyu paused thoughtfully.

Yu Chenglong arched his hand: "This official is loyal to the court and benefits the people, but this official has fulfilled his duty!" ”

Wang Xinyu asked, "Is Yu Xianzun willing to work for my Daming?" ”

Yu Chenglong shook his head: "Handsome, everyone has their own ambitions, since I, Yu Mou, am an official of the Qing Dynasty, I must not betray the court!" I can't say yes! If the marshal wants to kill so-and-so, he will never blame the marshal! ”

"The official of the Qing court? Yu Xianzun was born in my great tomorrow apocalypse! When Emperor Chongzhen was here, Yu Xianzun was still my Ming Gongsheng, how did he become an official of the Qing Dynasty? Wang Xinyu sneered.

Yu Jackie Chan said: "During the reign of Emperor Chongzhen, the officialdom was dark! The people are miserable, but the taxes are raised every year! This is the rebellion of the people! When a certain person participated in the township examination in Taiyuan, the examiner in the Taiyuan examination room openly offered and accepted bribes, favoritism, and a certain couldn't stand it anymore, so he resigned and returned to his hometown! It was the Qing Dynasty that gave the official the opportunity to become a leader! After the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the thieves were pacified, so that the people could live a stable life, at least they would not starve to death. ”

"Those who are not of my race will have different hearts! The Tartars are barbarians outside the Guan, and the Ming Dynasty is only my Chinese orthodoxy! Wang Xinyu pointed to the official robe on his body, and then pointed to the statue of Confucius hanging on the wall, "Huaxia clothes, Confucian shirts and square scarves, Fang is orthodox!" The Tartar ruined my Chinese clothes, the sin is unforgivable! ”

Yu Chengchan was speechless for a while, and after a while, he slowly spoke: "Since this official is an official, he should be loyal to the court and take the righteousness of the monarch and the minister as the supreme!" Regardless of whether the emperor in the north is a barbarian or a Chinese, the official should be loyal. ”

Wang Xinyu thought to himself: Although such a clean official is beneficial to the Qing court, if the whole world is such a clean official, then how can he oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty? But now that Yu Chengchan has fallen into his hands, he is just a small county order, and killing him will not have much effect, and it will not play a role in warning some Qing court officials. But it's impossible to let him go, what should I do?

Pregnant! Send him away! Thinking of this, Wang Xinyu said: "Since Yu Xianzun doesn't want to be a second minister who betrays the lord, then this domain won't force you, so let's do it, now the typhoon season has not yet arrived, and the navigation is taking the Nanyang route, so you can go to the Nanyang to have a look." When the weather gets hotter and the wind and waves on the northern route decrease, and then you go to the Americas on the other side, the domain does not require you to do things for the domain, so you will be exiled to the wild land overseas to open up the wisdom of the people and become a teacher. ”

This arrangement is to send Yu Chenglong overseas, let him walk around, and know how big the world is.

"Since this official has fallen into the hands of the general, how can the general arrange it, and what else can this official say? Since the general spared the life of this official, this official Xie General will not kill him! Yu Chenglong arched his hand.

The next day, it was the Chinese New Year's Eve, Changsha was the front line, and the Ming army stationed in Changsha did not have a New Year holiday. But after all, the Spring Festival is the grandest traditional festival, and Wang Xinyu still improved the life of the Ming army.

Each soldier received a New Year's bonus of one or two silver, and was given a new military uniform, so that the soldiers could wear new clothes and have a good New Year.

In the camp in the north of Changsha City, in the camp of General Li Tianzhi, the soldiers were happy, killing pigs and sheep to prepare for the New Year. These Cantonese troops were not discriminated against by the old Ming army, but received the same treatment as the Ming army. A few days ago, someone sent 12 pigs, 20 sheep, two cows, countless other chickens, ducks and eggs to Li Tianzhi's camp, as well as fresh fish, shrimp and turtles that had just been caught from the Xiangjiang River.

"Wow, that's so good!" Seeing so many years of goods, Liu Zheng, the general manager, has long been drooling.

A few days ago, the New Year has improved their lives once, that day, on the table, there are fish, chicken, meat, beef and mutton, all of which have been carefully cooked and made into exquisite dishes, so that they can eat their mouths full of oil.

Since Li Tianzhi surrendered to the Ming Dynasty with Shang Zhixin, the food conditions of the soldiers have improved a lot. Originally, when I was in the Qing army, I ate high-yield sweet potatoes, not to mention that it was difficult to eat meat once a year, and even brown rice was difficult to eat once a month.

After joining the Ming army, the food conditions were greatly improved. On weekdays, I eat brown rice and multigrain rice, and I will eat polished rice every once in a while, and the amount of oil used in the dishes is quite sufficient, so I won't get hungry soon when I eat it. Meat is also often there, every few days there will be a meal of fragrant meat, or stewed mutton, sometimes dumplings, or eat big meat buns.

In addition, the Ming army will also issue a good thing called canned food, including canned braised pork, canned braised fish, canned fruit, etc. The cans are really good, the shell is a clay pot with a cork on it. Pry open the cork with a knife, and it's full of goodies that are so delicious that you almost bite your tongue off.

Canned braised pork, canned braised beef, as soon as you open it, it is stewed braised pork and beef. Canned braised fish, which is braised fish that is fragrant, are all sea fish, moderately salty, especially easy to eat, and the rice is added casually, you can open your belly to eat a full meal. As for canned fruits, they are all canned fruits in sugar water, and the taste is very sweet, and in this era when white sugar is a luxury, sweet things always make people particularly happy.

Although they were cannon fodder, Wang Xinyu was still very careful not to let them sacrifice in vain, and before each attack, he would prepare sufficient artillery preparations. When they attacked, there was long-range fire cover behind them. When they ascend to the top of the city, they will also have the cooperation of elite kings and ministers to reduce their losses as much as possible.

"It's coming, it's silver!" Li Tianzhi walked into the barracks with a team of personal soldiers.

"Silver? General, is it a military salary? Isn't it time to pay the military yet? Liu Zheng's face was full of doubts. However, he didn't notice that his main general, Li Tianzhi, had changed into a military uniform and a six-petal hat Mingguang armor, all of which were new.

"It's an additional bonus for the New Year, everyone has a share, line up, and come to receive the silver! One or two ordinary soldiers, one or two captains, two captains, and three ......taels for the captain," Li Tianzhi replied.

The soldiers lined up, and everyone was happy to receive the silver. This additional salary of one tael of silver is not a small amount for them, on weekdays, each person receives a tael of silver per month, but some people's money has to subsidize the family, and some people like to smoke and drink a little wine, and there is not much money left. An extra tael of silver during the Chinese New Year can play a big role.

Liu Zheng is the general manager, and he received three taels of silver. With these three taels of silver, you can buy a lot of good cigarettes. Liu Zheng has no other hobbies, but he likes to smoke, especially high-end cigarettes. He can't look at ordinary Nanyang Double Happiness, so he likes to smoke high-end Nanyang Double Happiness cigarettes. For three taels of silver, you can buy a lot of good cigarettes.

Just after receiving the silver, another auxiliary soldier carried boxes of goods into the barracks.

"New clothes! A new military uniform has been issued! There's something for everyone! Choose according to your own size! A thousand officers of the auxiliary army shouted at the top of his voice.

Liu Zheng crowded up to get his new military uniform.

"Put the total? Put the total here! The officer led Liu Zheng to the other side and pointed to the box, "Put the total clothes in here and pick a set yourself!" ”

The ordinary soldiers changed into red mandarin duck battle jackets, and wore red tasseled soft hats on their heads, and the armor was not issued separately, and it was still the vest-style leather armor used in the Qing army. And the officer's clothes were different, with a six-petal iron helmet on his head, a red military uniform on his body, and iron armor with arm and leg guards.

"Finally a new uniform! No more back-wearing uniforms! "The soldiers who received the new uniforms were very excited.

Changing into the official red uniforms of the Ming army, it means that they are already official Ming troops, and in future operations, they are no longer cannon fodder who are pushed to the front and sent to death.

Not only the Guangdong army, but also the Fujian army and the Gui army also changed their military uniforms at the same time, and all of them changed into official red military uniforms of the Ming army.

Opposite Li Tianzhi's camp is the barracks of the wolf soldiers in Guangxi.

Liu Zheng saw a few wolf soldiers who had changed into Ming army uniforms come out of the barracks opposite, and their military uniforms were also red uniforms, but everyone was issued with rattan armor and rattan helmets. The hat he usually wears, like Liu Zheng and them, is also a red tasseled and white soft hat, and he wears a rattan helmet during wartime. On the wolf soldiers, there are colorful decorations, which means that they come from different toasts, the military uniforms of the Yao people have the characteristics of the Yao people, and the military uniforms of the Miao people have the characteristics of the Miao people. It's just that among the Yao people, the colors of the decorations of Pai Yao and Guo Shan Yao are different.

"The native soldiers have been issued rattan helmets and rattan armor with arm and leg guards, why haven't we issued them?" Liu Zheng asked Li Tianzhi.

"Give you the same weapon, you bring a hundred men and a hundred native soldiers to fight, can you beat them?" Li Tianzhi rolled his eyes, "If you can beat them, then Li will go to the big handsome and apply for a rattan armor for you!" ”

Liu Zheng They have nothing to say, they know the combat effectiveness of these wolf soldiers, don't say one hundred against one hundred, even if it is three hundred against one hundred, they can't beat them! The combat effectiveness of the wolf soldiers is too strong, a thousand wolf soldiers and infantry can have no problem against a thousand eight banner cavalry on the plains, if it is in the mountains, a thousand wolf soldiers are simply invincible.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the major barracks were lit up, firecrackers rumbled, and the soldiers served large pots of braised pork, braised beef, roast mutton, stewed fish, dumplings, and various side dishes, and the things on Chinese New Year's Eve were served openly, and they could eat as much as they wanted, until they were full.

However, the fly in the ointment is that you can't drink, Changsha is the front line, only more than ten miles away from the nearest Qing army, even if it is the New Year, you are not allowed to drink, so as not to come to the Qing army to sneak attack.

In fact, even if it was the New Year, the Ming army's night guards, spies, scouts and agents were also busy as usual, just today during the day, dozens of people who did not collect at night went to the north more than ten miles north of the Qing army camp to ambush, sniped many Qing soldiers with rifled guns from a long distance, and waited until the Qing soldiers chased them out, and did not collect the night and evacuated on horseback.

The next morning, everyone was woken up early by the sound of firecrackers.

In Changsha City for the New Year, the lively atmosphere of the New Year has been shown. Although the city had only experienced war two months earlier, because Changsha was opened by Zhou Zhaonan and Ren Shaojun to dedicate the city, the city did not suffer much damage, and the city remained relatively intact.

Walking on the street, the children have changed into new clothes for the New Year, their pockets are full of food, and the little girl is wearing flowers on her head, happily standing on the street, watching the boys set off firecrackers.

Changsha is a city that has just been taken, and the Nanyang Company came forward to let the ordinary people in Changsha find a job under the name of Nanyang Company, and during the Chinese New Year, the company paid wages to the people who worked under their names, and transferred New Year's goods from other places into the city and sold them to the local people cheaply.

With plenty of New Year's goods, this year's New Year, Changsha does not look like a city that has just passed through war.

It is also because of the merits of Zhou Zhaonan and Ren Shaojun that not many people died in the Battle of Changsha. Of course, some people are happy and some are worried, some of the residents of Xiangyong have joined the family, most of the family men have been sent overseas, and a few men in the family have been killed in the battle of Changsha, and the family has lost its breadwinner.

Although those families with fewer men in their families, Nanyang Company also arranged jobs for them, such as going to work in textile factories or working in military hospitals, and distributing land in the countryside, they could still ensure that there were enough New Year's goods, but after all, there were fewer men in the family, and the New Year for these women and children seemed a little deserted.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Zhou Zhaonan, the new governor of Daming Huguang, and Ren Shaoxu, the prefect of Hunan, went out early in the morning to pay New Year's greetings to Wang Xinyu and Bai Wenxuan. Shang Zhixin and Geng Zhongge's house was also very lively, and many people went to their house to pay New Year's greetings. Because Shang Zhixin is still the prince; Geng Zhongge didn't know that in fact, Wang Xinyu had secretly appointed Geng Jingzhong, and he also regarded himself as a prince, and his subordinates didn't know either, and they also regarded him as a prince.

In contrast, Shang Zhixiao's general's mansion is crowded and looks much more deserted. Everyone knows that Shang Zhixiao and Shang Zhixin do not deal with each other, and Shang Zhixin's power is obviously much stronger than Shang Zhixiao, and the people who pay New Year's greetings have gone to Shang Zhixin's house.

Thousands of miles away, the cities of Guangzhou, Guilin and Nanning, those cities were recovered relatively early, and they have all recovered their vitality, and the people in the city put up lanterns and celebrated the New Year lively.

In Yuezhou, Wuchang and other places north of Changsha, there was a pessimistic atmosphere in the Qing army camp. Many people think so, maybe this year's New Year will be their last New Year. At most, after half a year, a new war will break out, and many people will die in that Armageddon.

Anqing, Shi Lang, a loyal lackey of the Qing court, rushed to Anqing a year ago.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Shi Lang took his own soldiers and carried generous gifts to the Ao Bai Mansion to pay New Year's greetings.

"Lord Nakado! Happy New Year! Shi Lang bowed to Aobai.

"Shi Junmen! Happy New Year! "Bow and bow back.

The two exchanged pleasantries, and Shi Lang proposed: "Lord Zhongtang, more than 400,000 troops of our army (including auxiliary soldiers and Minzhuang) gather in Huguang, so many people, daily food is a big problem!" If you don't take the initiative to attack, as long as the thieves hold Changsha, our army can't afford to consume food! (To be continued.) )
