"The country has been supporting scholars for three hundred years!"

Yang Feng sighed.

"In the end, I actually raised such a group of unfaithful, filial, unkind and unrighteous things that even my ancestors forgot about it! I issued an order that all the shaved hair in the Kong family were given the surname of the captains and were not slaves. Since they were willing to be Tartars, I will fulfill them!"

Then he said viciously.

How could he be a man who was very wise to the righteous? How could he oppose shaving? After Dorgon's decree arrived at Qufu, Kong Yinzhi submitted a memorial to shaving his head that was almost unchanged from the original history.

Moreover, on the same day the memorial was issued, the Kong family shaved their hair all over the country, with their bare heads and small rat tails, and set an example to scholars all over the world. Then Dorgon happily issued an order to force shaving his hair and change his clothes to all the officials occupied by the Qing army. However, in this extraordinary period, because of concerns about arousing civil unrest, they were only mainly officials and the army, and there was no order to leave their heads without leaving their hair, as in history.

Dorgon did not have such ability to implement such policies.

At least not yet.

He was not interested in anything before the final battle with the Ming army came to an end. All he wanted was the officials and gentry to shaved their ambitions and tied them to him without a retreat. As for ordinary people...

Just a slut, not worth mentioning!

Of course, this has nothing to do with Yang Feng. He was happy that he had a reason to completely clean up the Kong family! The Kong family store must be broken, of course it is not possible to completely destroy it. He did not have the ability to rebuild a moral system in a short period of time. However, the special symbol of the Kong family must be broken. This family has become a cancer of the entire nation. They knelt in front of the aliens again and again, and used the tablets of their ancestors to exchange for their wealth. No one could show even the minimum integrity when facing the invasion of the aliens.

But they are what the world expects.

They are symbols of Confucianism.

They are the spiritual leaders of the country to some extent.

Their despicable behavior is the best excuse for all those literati. Their shamelessness makes all Confucian scholars be justified and shameless. When they kneel down to the conquerors of the alien race, all literati can beg for mercy with peace of mind. The best solution is to let them disappear. Confucius' tablets can continue to be worshipped, but the Kong family must be destroyed, completely destroyed, and let them disappear forever. After capturing Qufu, he is ready to send the Kong family to the north of Lingbei to accompany the Brown Bear and Siberian tigers. As for the mess in Qufu, he will completely flatten the bones of Confucius and move them to the Thirteen Tombs of Beijing or the Xiaoling Tombs of Nanjing.

Qufu has been defiled by the Tartars and is not suitable for the residence of Saint Confucius.

Only by being company with the Emperors of the Ming Dynasty are in line with his noble identity.

"Your Majesty, isn't this too cruel?"

Li Yutian said in horror.

"I wasn't ruthless enough before!"

Yang Feng sneered.

Since this is the case, the Chief Li won’t say anything more. In fact, he knew very well that if it was just targeting the Kong family, it wouldn’t be a big deal. Anyway, the emperor had already offended all the gentry in the north, and he didn’t care about offending them again. As for the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River...

The gentry in Jiangnan cares about his life or death!

If the emperor issued an order to inherit the Yansheng Gong from the Confucius family in Quzhou, then the gentry in Jiangnan would cheer for this.

"How many troops did Dorgon gather?"

Yang Feng asked.

He temporarily returned to Shanhaiguan from the Gaizhou front line, but this is for this.

"The former governor of Shandong, former Yuzong, 50,000, the former governor of Zhili, 60,000, the unit of Li Jian, 20,000, the headquarters of Li Jian, 20,000, the headquarters of the governor of Henan, 20,000, the headquarters of the Chongya tribe of Tongzhou, 50,000, the headquarters of Fang Dayou tribe of Shanxi, 20,000, the total green camp, 220,000, but it is still being assembled, and it is probably impossible to complete within a month. In addition, the headquarters of the pseudo-paced King of Xi, Jiang Guan, was led by his younger brother Jiang Xuan, and he has arrived in Huairou. In addition, including the newly expanded Han army in Beijing, there are a total of 40,000 Eight Banners and another 20,000 Mongolian soldiers. All the troops will launch an attack in a maximum of one month.

However, the real battles in this place will not exceed 100,000.

Those green camps are just cannon fodder.

I think if I transfer a cannon from the Divine Power Invincible General and use the flowering bullets I just made, I guess that one shot can disperse at least ten thousand green camps.

But even if they are not added, Pingxi Hou is very dangerous. After all, the imperial court only has seven towns in the east of Ji, and a large part of them are actually not much stronger than the Green Camp. There is not even half of them who can really fight. The comparison of the strength of our enemy and us is four to one. Your Majesty, I think it should be safer, such as temporarily postponing the attack on Chenyang. After all, there is no hurry to do so."

Li Yutian said.

“It’s useless.”

Yang Feng shook his head and said.

"Then Dorgon won't attack. He will only attack when we attack Chenyang. If we don't attack Chenyang, then he will only maintain pressure in Hebei and drag it until winter. After the sea is frozen, if I am in Shanhaiguan, then Jiergalang will counterattack southern Liaoning. If I am in Liaoning, then Dorgon will attack eastern Jidong. During this period, he will continue to raid all parts of Hebei, making it impossible for our people to farm. In this way, there will be insufficient food in winter. They have enough control areas behind them to plunder and will not worry about food shortages, but we cannot do it. Moreover, the counterattack threatens Nanjing, and it is unlikely that the food in Jiangnan will be transported. Therefore, we must fight with them quickly and resolve the battle before the summer comes!"

Yang Feng said.

In fact, the grain from Jiangnan has rarely been transported. Only Zheng Zhilong and Guangdong and Guangxi have a small amount transported north through the Zheng family's fleet. The Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas have basically stopped. Their places are also very nervous now. The navy and Li Zicheng on the Yangtze River have fought many times, and they have won and lost each other. The King of Tang did not have any surplus grain to the north. The gentry of Jiangsu and Zhejiang had to grit their teeth just to support the hundreds of thousands of troops guarding the Yangtze River. Therefore, Yang Feng must at least have to support himself in terms of food in the future.

This is the middle of the third month of the lunar calendar, and the latest sowing must be completed before the fifth month.

"If that happens, the troops will be insufficient."

Li Yutian said in confusion.

If Dorgon was to force the decisive battle before the summer came, the Ming army would have to attack Chenyang with all its might, so that he could see the hope of victory. Then the Liaodong army would not be able to draw out reinforcements from Hebei. With the 70,000 Ming army in Hebei alone to resist 290,000 Qing army, including the Eight Banners, no matter how it is calculated, it would be hopeless.

"Insufficient troops?"

Yang Feng smiled and said, "It seems that you still don't understand what our real advantage is compared to the enemy!"

"Uh, your Majesty, please make it clear!"

Li Yutian said.

"I ask you, how are the people in Hebei East doing this year?"

Yang Feng said.

"Okay, it's definitely better than before. Since His Majesty changed the tax system, reduced the rent of imperial fields to 10%, opened mines, and hired a large number of people to do slack work, the people in all parts of Hebei East can not only have enough food, but also many people have spare money. Not only does they have enough food and clothing, but they never have to endure hunger and cold anymore. Now the people are looking forward to planting immortal seeds as soon as possible, and there are more imperial fields for them to plant."

Li Yutian said.

He didn't praise Yang Feng.

Although due to the limited grain output, the food in the controlled area was still not abundant, no one was hungry. Especially when Yangfeng opened the mine, allowing the people to mine iron ore and then sell it to steel plants, allowing the people to mine coal by themselves, and even allowing the people to dry salt by themselves, the business in Jidong immediately flourished. In addition, the daily purchases of more than 100,000 troops, food, clothing, housing and transportation were bought by the imperial court, which gave the people in Jidong a lot of opportunities to make money, and all industry and commerce were prosperous, and even the merchants occupied the area of ​​the Qing army even occupied the area.

, they all started to smuggle here, as long as they had money to make money, they would not care about anything else. Even the Qing army captured the beheaded food, and people transported it from the sea to sell it by boat. Even ordinary farmers benefited from 10% of the land rent, and there were also all other tycoons and miscellaneous taxes. Not only did they no longer have to endure hunger, but they even had surplus grains to sell. The only disadvantage was that due to the grain output limit, the amount of surplus grain was still not very large, so the price of grain was relatively high, but this was just because those immortal species had not been fully promoted.

Everyone understands this, and it can be said that the entire Hebei East is thriving.

"So what if all this is gone?"

Yang Feng said.

"The immortal seeds are gone, 10% of the land rented imperial fields are gone, all kinds of opportunities to make money are gone, and all the messy taxes such as taxes, fire consumption, corvee labor are available again. Iron ore is not allowed to be mined, and anyone who sells salt will be beheaded. The gentry who has been confiscated from the land is fierce and seeks them back to the land. All this has happened, and all the people must go back to live the hungry and cold days.

So what will happen to them?"

He continued.

"Uh, they'll go crazy."

Shoufu Li said.

"Then why do you think that our troops are insufficient? Can there be more than 500,000 young and strong in Jidong and Liaoxi be unable to fight? The oldest Tatars killed by the Dangbang Brigade on the Gaizhou battlefield is 74 years old this year. He rode a horse with a spear and almost rushed into the defense line of the Dangbang Brigade. Are our young and middle-aged people not as good as him? Tell the people of Jidong and Liaoxi counties, tell them that the Tatars are coming to destroy their good days, wanting 10% of the land rented imperial fields, wanting fairy seeds, and wanting good days without any heavy taxes, go to the county government offices to collect weapons and defend everything they have obtained at present.

Tell them that I need them!

Yes, I will post such portraits to me in various counties, I need them!"

Yang Feng said.

He wanted to use the vast ocean of people's war to submerge Dorgon's 290,000 troops.
Chapter completed!
