Outside the city of Nanjing.
Autumn has arrived, harvest season.
An old farmer finished harvesting the last acre of rice and sat on the ridge to rest.
"Gollum. "
Drinking the water in the pot, I looked at the ears of rice swaying in the wind in the distance.
The smile on his face could barely be hidden.
"Uncle, how is this year's harvest?"
Looking at Gao Yingxiang, who had the same vicissitudes of life in front of him, the other party did not doubt him.
I think it's all farming, and said with a smile.
"It's not easy, I just suffered from drought last year, and I was able to have 80% of the harvest in previous years.
Thank God!"
Gao Yingxiang looked at the rice field in front of him and continued to ask.
"How much can you stay?"
"After paying thirty percent, the remaining seventy percent. "
The old man gave an approximate number.
"What about the mess of miscellaneous taxes? "
When Gao Yingxiang was farming, it was good to be able to leave thirty percent, and there were also harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes.
"Fortunately, Your Majesty has come and let the government exempt the messy miscellaneous taxes.
Collecting 30% is already counting all taxes. "
"But can the people down there listen?"
"Why don't you listen?", Han shook the kettle in his hand.
"Our son is in charge of this, he dares to charge more Lao Tzu to kill him.
At least before I die, he can't follow the example of the corrupt officials and corrupt officials in the past, domineering the villagers!"
As he spoke, the old man smiled proudly.
Rhetorical asked, "Where did you come from?"
"Northern Shaanxi. "
Gao Yingxiang sighed.
"I heard that your life is not easy for him, and there are still many chaotic troops!
But it's good to come, Your Majesty will let the government divide the land for you, and you won't be taxed in the first year!"
The old man said comfortingly, he didn't know that what he was in front of was the leader of the largest chaotic army in northern Shaanxi.
"Although the price of food is cheaper, there is a lot of money after selling it.
When the time comes, life will be better, let me tell you, buy the cloth of the Liu family in the east of the city cheaper. "
The old man kept telling each other which places in the city were cheap and affordable to buy.
Gao Yingxiang, who heard the words "three seven zero", let out a long sigh.
"Are all the people here having such a good day?"
The old man put down the kettle with a smile.
"Your Majesty is wise, since you killed all those bad rich gentry landlords.
After we were assigned to the field, life was suddenly better.
Most of the people in this new government mansion are familiar neighbors.
Although there are some things that are not very good, greedy for money and patronizing themselves, it is much better than before!
Your Majesty is wise!"
After hearing these words, Gao Yingxiang couldn't help but burst into tears.
"It's too late, it's too late!"
Why, why is it only now for him to know that there is such a place.
He was envious of the old man in front of him, and even the people of the entire Jiangnan!
Subsequently.
Gao Yingxiang, who had seen half of the south of the Yangtze River, returned to the Nanjing Imperial Palace.
He knelt in front of Liu Chan and said bitterly.
"Why, why, why are you just coming to Jiangnan now!
If it had been eight or nine years earlier, I wouldn't have rebelled!"
Liu Chan, who heard the words, asked leisurely.
"It's not easy for the emperor.
If it weren't for a complete fall out with the court of Jingshi, I wouldn't have come to Jiangnan.
And just one Jiangnan almost collapsed.
If you don't get it right, it's that my head is different.
Sometimes I envy you, because you can do whatever you want. "
Gao Yingxiang just shook his head when he heard this.
The rebel army will never be able to do what Jiangnan is now.
Because they will only rob, kill from one place to another.
may be able to kill all the corrupt officials and corrupt officials.
It can also open a warehouse to release grain, so that the people can be fed.
But Gao Yingxiang understands that the rebel army is just letting the people get better for a while.
It is far from being as stable as Jiangnan!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!
I'm damned, I'm going to cut it with a thousand cuts!
But the people of northern Shaanxi, they are not guilty!
Please, please go to northern Shaanxi!
Even if it's only half, two or three percent of these days will do!"
Gao Yingxiang knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily.
Every time, it's so loud.
He now understands that only Liu Chan can save the people of the world.
The former government couldn't, and neither could the rebels.
Only the people in front of them can keep the people alive!
"Yes, it will pass. "
Liu Chan put his hands behind his back and said lightly.
Now Jiangnan still needs to be dormant and developed, waiting for soldiers to train and make ordnance.
"Alas, it's been too late in this life.
Your Majesty, let me be loyal to you again in the next life. "
Gao Yingxiang knelt on the ground with relief and blood on his forehead.
Falling heavily again.
"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"
From the bottom of his heart, he recognized Liu Chan, the emperor.
On the same day, King Chuang died.
Died on the execution table and was beheaded.
But his blood-stained head was pointing straight to the northwest.
There was no unwillingness on his face, just a smile and satisfaction.
This life is too bitter, too bitter!
Let's go in the next life!
I hope that at that time, Liu Chan, the emperor, has truly ruled the world.
Who doesn't want to live in peace?
As long as they can get by, who wants to rebel?
A few days later, Wuying Palace.
Liu Chan met with the military generals and ministers of King Qin who came to the rescue.
"Come, give me a seat!"
He looked at the people in front of him who were rescued by King Qin, and he was very relieved.
Compared with the Jingshi court, Liu Chan's ministers were almost angry.
Whether it comes in handy or not, these people always have a loyal heart.
"Old General Qin, is it expensive this year?"
Facing the emperor's kind inquiry, Qin Liangyu hurriedly got up and said.
"I'm tired of Your Majesty's thoughts, there is one in sixty. "
Liu Chan said with emotion.
"The old general is sixty years old and still leads the army to the battle, which can really be described as the pillar of the country. "
He looked at Ma Xianglin standing behind him.
"This is your son Ma Xianglin?
Known as Little Zhao Yun in the army?"
"It's the dog Ma Xianglin. "
Ma Xianglin, who is almost forty years old, is in a hurry like a teenager.
Hurriedly knelt on the ground and said.
"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live. "
His heart was extremely excited, he didn't expect the emperor to know his name.
Also call him Xiao Zhao Yun!
"Get up.
Yes, it is indeed heroic and chic, I heard that you can be literate and martial, and your courage is superb.
Wear silver armor, ride a white horse, and take the head of the enemy general among the ten thousand armies. "
The other party said flatteredly.
"Your Majesty has praised it falsely, and the last general will be terrified. "
"Haha. Liu Chan said with a smile.
"Since it is Xiao Zhao Yun, he naturally has to be worthy of the official position.
Let's be a commander of Sichuan and Shu first, and then I will give you a promotion when you have made meritorious contributions. "
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Ma Xianglin said excitedly.
From today onwards, the entire Sichuan and Shu officers and troops will be ordered by him, the commander!
Afterwards, Liu Chan looked at Cao Wenzhao.
"Lord Cao, it's been a long time. "
Cao Wenzhao, who heard the words, got up and arched his hand and said.
"Your Majesty, it's been four years since the ministers were released. "
During the defense of the Jingshi, he was one of the few ministers who was promoted in the Jingshi.
"You are Cao Bianjiao, I have heard of you.
You're a general, but I think it's too low, and it's more than enough to be a general soldier. "
"Your Majesty!"
Cao Bianjiao, who is in his twenties, has experienced this.
The whole person was excited.
Finally, it was Yuan Chonghuan, Liu Chan did not have a kind tone.
Instead, he was held accountable.
"It's not for you to garrison the Ningjin defense line, why do you want to bring troops here?
If Huang Taiji goes south, what will Ning Jin do?"
Everyone else is praised, and only they are held accountable.
Yuan Chonghuan was also helpless, just knelt on the ground and said.
"Your Majesty, your minister, your minister is worried about your safety.
This time, the minister only brought 8,000 cavalry, and the rest of the foot soldiers did not move. "
Between the words, there are many grievances.
How did King Qin rescue the driver, and he also rescued the mistake.
When the people around saw this, they just couldn't help laughing.
Half an hour later.
The crowd came out of the Wuying Palace.
Each of them was rewarded with a house in Nanjing.
Evening.
Ma Xianglin, who came back from the excitement, said to this Qin Liangyu.
"It's a pity, mother.
You didn't get a reward this time. "
The other party just smiled and patted his son on the shoulder. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
"You have become the commander of Sichuan and Shu, what a great kindness.
Don't be greedy. "
Ma Xianglin shook his head, "Even if my son is in command."
It's good to get a title for your mother. "
"Your mother is old, and she doesn't care about this anymore. "[]
Qin Liangyu is the acting husband and the hereditary stone pillar consolation envoy.
is currently the second lady of the fate, and she is already satisfied.
As if thinking of something, Ma Xianglin whispered.
"And the three thousand men outside, if only they could be rewarded a little.
After all, thousands of miles have come coming. "
In this regard, Qin Liangyu just patted his son's head.
"I've told you all, don't be greedy.
Have you ever fought or killed an enemy this time?
The truth of merit and reluctance, do you still want to teach you for your mother?"
Ma Xianglin just sighed.
"That's what my mother said.
His Majesty also rewarded two large mansions, which really can't be demanded. "
While the two were talking, a eunuch suddenly came to announce the decree.
"Serving the frontier with women is unprecedented.
Traces of his loyalty and martial arts are ashamed.
Qin Liangyu was named a loyal marquis. "
The eunuch smiled and said to Qin Liangyu, who was stunned in front of him.
"Loyalty, congratulations. "
Ma Xianglin next to him was excited and shouted, "Mother, you are a marquis!"
He didn't expect that there would be so many benefits from coming to King Qin this time.
The woman relied on her military exploits to become a marquis, and even Qin Liangyu was surprised.
While excited, he also shook his head.
"Father-in-law, how can the old man receive the decree if he has not made an inch of merit this time?"
The other party just smiled.
"In the second year of Chongzhen, the imperial Taiji soldiers came to the city, and the loyal marquis also brought people with you.
This time, it is more self-funded military salary, leading soldiers to serve the king.
In addition, fighting against the rebellious army in Sichuan and Shu can be said to be without hard work.
You deserve it. "
In addition, the eunuch also took out a copy of the recital.
said with a smile to Ma Xianglin.
"The three thousand white-pole troops who came to King Qin this time are all rewarded.
Your Majesty said that these are patriotic and ardent soldiers, and they should be rewarded. "
Ma Xianglin, who took the fold, couldn't say it excitedly.
This majesty is too generous!
A thousand words, translated into two kneeling on the ground.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live!"
In addition, Ma Xianglin also learned that Liu Chan would provide food and salary every year for him to recruit troops and horses.........
It was a huge number he had never seen before!
Meanwhile.
Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao's uncles and nephews also had additional rewards, as well as the allocation of military salaries and food.
Even Yuan Chonghuan, who was trained, has a copy.
Seeing the military salaries and grain and grass on the fold, his depression all disappeared.
Everyone's idea is that this trip is worth it!
Long live Your Majesty!
......
Capital.
At first, I heard that 500,000 rebel troops were attacking Jiangnan on a large scale, and the ministers also discussed it.
Do you want to send troops to the rescue?
Six ministries.
Sun Chengzong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, insisted on sending troops to the rescue.
"Your Majesty is still in Nanjing, and 500,000 rebel troops are attacking.
How can we turn a blind eye?
Reinforcements should be sent out quickly!"
However, not many people responded to his words.
The ministers were like clay sculptures, and they didn't say a word.
The matter of "intercepting" the book of the household department has not passed.
Seeing that no one responded, a cabinet minister broke the embarrassment and said.
"Master Sun, don't be in a hurry.
The rebel army is like this, tens of thousands of people have to be blown into 100,000.
It is claimed to be 500,000 people, but in fact there are only more than 100,000 people at most.
The people and horses in the south of the Yangtze River are still enough to resist. "
As soon as these words came out, the people around them began to talk nonsense.
"Yes, Your Majesty has killed so many rich gentry in Jiangnan, and there will definitely be no shortage of money and silver.
In the past year, recruiting troops has always been enough to deal with this chaotic army. "
"Yes, Jiangnan is rich, enough to support tens of thousands of people. "
Having said so much, the ministers have one meaning.
Your Majesty has the ability, and there is no need for us to send troops to the rescue.
However, these words made Sun Chengzong very annoyed.
"As a courtier, how can you sit back and watch Your Majesty fall into crisis!"
The new Tobe Shangshu sat next to him and said lightly.
"Master Sun, what you said is not right.
It's not that we refuse to send troops to rescue, it's really powerless. "
Tobe nodded and agreed.
"Lord Sun doesn't have a backache when he stands and talks, and now the taxes in Jiangnan can't be collected for a penny or a grain of grain.
Most of the north was ravaged by the rebels.
The taxation of several places in Shandong is now difficult to maintain the imperial court.
Just the military salary allocated to you, the court is stretched. "
Sun Chengzong couldn't help frowning when he heard this.
"What do you mean by this, isn't the military salary allocated to the officers and soldiers in various places?
My grandson someone didn't take over half a point, what does it mean to dial me!
Do you want to call me corrupt!"
The other party stopped talking, just sat there.
But the expression on his face clearly illustrates his attitude.
This kind of thing, who knows?
"You!"
Sun Chengzong couldn't help but be furious.
Is it for himself that he conducts official business day and night?
The cabinet assistant came out to play a round.
"Alright, alright!
Don't be excited, Lord Sun, the rebellious army has not yet arrived in Nanzhili.
You might as well wait for the news, if it is really critical, you will definitely send troops to rescue Your Majesty. "
Another month passed.
The news of the fall of Bozhou and Taihe in Nanzhili came.
It was determined that the 500,000-strong rebel army was attacking.
Sun Chengzong naturally demanded that troops be sent to rescue immediately.
However, the ministers made excuses again.
"Lord Sun, the summer grain hasn't been collected yet. 2.6 Now that the household department is empty, how can it send troops?"
"yes, wait a minute.
If the troops are sent rashly, they cannot provide food and salary, which leads to chaos among the officers and soldiers.
Wouldn't that add to the chaos?"
"Wait!"
The ministers still mean the same thing.
Sun Chengzong had no choice but to wait for another month.
Nan Zhili was sent to the army of conquering the city.
The rebellious army is about to reach Fengyang.
"Now that the summer grain has been shipped, it's time to send troops!"
When Tobe Shangshu heard this, he did not speak.
After the collection of summer grain, the household department did have a little more money.
It is enough to send troops to rescue Nanjing.
However, someone said leisurely.
"Lord Sun, it's okay to send troops.
But Jiangnan's taxation should be discussed with His Majesty.
Not to mention seventy percent, even fifty percent can be sent to Beijing. "
This behavior is undoubtedly a bit of a robbery while the fire is hot.
Sun Chengzong was furious, "When is it?"
You are still entangled here, if the rebellious army defeats Fengyang, it will disturb the imperial tomb.
Who can afford this responsibility!"
When these words came out, no one answered.
But several cabinet ministers, including the first assistant and the second assistant, were silent, apparently acquiescing.
"There are people in turmoil all over the world, and there are places everywhere to spend money.
The taxation of Jiangnan is indeed important to the imperial court. "
Obviously, the people of the Jingshi Imperial Court are determined to rely on this opportunity to get back the taxes in Jiangnan.
"Traitor thief, traitor thief!"
Sun Chengzong's repeated proposals failed, and he walked away angrily.
He is the secretary of the military department, but he can't mobilize a single soldier without nodding his head from the cabinet.
The ministers disagreed, sent a note to Nanjing, and waited for the emperor to bargain.
Their bottom limit was five million silver and five million stone of grain, plus thirty percent of the taxes paid by Jiangnan.
Otherwise, no troops!
The following month, the news came that half a million troops had been exterminated.
The ministers were surprised and found that Sun Chengzong was also gone.
