Chapter 443 Daming Temporary Army (Debt Repayment 3/100)
The representative figure of Jiannu Nuo Chief Huang Taiji has finally breathed a sigh of relief recently.
As for the weather in Liaodong, the moral character of the dog can freeze to death in winter. The Ming Dynasty killings that are not very suitable for the Liaodong environment finally subsided.
This means that the Great Jin Kingdom can finally take a breath and will not be tortured to death.
During the sixth year of Tiancong, the Great Jin Kingdom lost nearly 20,000 soldiers who died in battle, including his own Manchus and Han people.
If we continue to do this, how many people can be left in the Great Jin Kingdom? Without people, can you just be a fool?
Yang Qiqi and others in Chenyang City were also very happy as Jiannu shrank his power into cities everywhere, and the population became concentrated.
As the population grew, the sales of Fushou cream once again reached a small peak.
Everything is beautiful.
Emperor Chongzhen didn't think so.
Although Yang Qiqi and his friends sold Fushou Paste to their own treasury through various channels, even the money for selling salt, Emperor Chongzhen still felt that it was not enough.
The reason is very simple. The commercial tax in the sixth year of Chongzhen has not yet been collected, which means that the treasury has to be borrowed from the treasury first.
Emperor Chongzhen really wanted to say that the landlords had no surplus food.
But there is no use for birds. The entire Ming Dynasty is its own land. There is no landlord in the world who is bigger than itself. Whether there is surplus grain, the people of the Ming Dynasty have to take care of it.
Then the treasury loaned to the national treasury 30 million taels and then to the Royal Academy 10 million taels, Emperor Chongzhen found that he had only a little more than 10 million taels of silver left.
Fortunately, I was shameless and broke into Zhu Youjian's business of selling kangaroo meat, and the money was getting more and more.
Then in February of the following sixth year of Chongzhen, Emperor Chongzhen discovered how wise and foresighted the decision to build a railway in Shanhaiguan first.
The first month of the sixth year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty was a very painful month. First, there was a fire in Shun Temple in Jinan, and then the Zhenjiang ditto turned over and the ground cracked several feet.
In Jinan, it is normal for Shun to have temples to worship in the land where he is farming.
But I don’t know what made him unhappy and burned his temple with a torch.
Maybe Shun and Zhurong had something dirty, so Zhurong was unhappy and burned Shun's temple with a fire?
Then, when there were drought and water shortages everywhere in the Ming Dynasty, Shanhaiguan Yongping, a place where Amin had massacred the city in history, but nothing happened, had a heavy rain.
If it's just raining, then that's fine, but the rain is a bit too heavy. According to the news reported by Yongping, it's "water ruins the city, the fields, and the death of people and animals."
Fortunately, Yongping is based on Shanhaiguan after all, and what Shanhaiguan lacks the least is people and all kinds of supplies.
I didn't say anything, just disaster relief.
Then Emperor Chongzhen felt that he was so fucking unlucky, and at the same time he admired the unlucky man in history more and more.
Since I ascended the throne, there has been no one without disasters, and there have been many in all year round.
It's only been six years since Chongzhen, and I'm already trying to kill people madly. I really don't know how the original Chongzhen Emperor in history lasted for seventeen years.
Especially when all kinds of resources were in the hands of the Donglin Party and the guards in his biggest trump card were destroyed by himself, the original Emperor Chongzhen could have survived for seventeen years.
Not easy.
Of course, no matter how much emotion is, no matter how much I think about it, this matter still needs to be done. The disasters that should be saved are saved, and the people who should be cut down have to be cut down.
The current boss of Shanhaiguan, equivalent to the head of the Shanhaiguan Service Office of the Ming Empire Group, Sun Chengzong, also had a headache.
Seeing that February of the sixth year of Chongzhen was already coming, it was a good time for the grass to grow and the birds to fly.
Then, a large number of the people of the Ming Dynasty came to Shanhaiguan with their own dry food for war horses and swords they bought last year.
The purpose of these people is very simple. As soon as the spring begins, Jiannu starts to farm, and the opportunity for everyone to get rich and get the heads will come.
A head of a person is priced at five taels of silver, which doesn’t seem to be much, but it’s enough for an ordinary family to last a year.
Not to mention that Jiannu's head is far more than five taels of silver, as simple as it is for military merits, etc., so Jiannu's head has now formed a black market, and the prices fluctuate differently every day.
For many people who are rich but have no ability or have no courage to cut people by themselves, spending dozens of taels of silver to buy a few heads and then exchange military merits is simply too cost-effective. Just the tax saved in a year, I don’t know how many heads of Jiannu can buy.
Military merits cannot be exempted from tax, but there are preferential policies, so now the merchants in the Ming Dynasty think military merits are really a good thing.
But no matter how good your military achievements are, you must have a real head in your hands.
The acquisition of Jiannu's heads is a provocation to the factory guards, and it is easy to be taught to be a human being.
However, secretly buying people and then getting military merits is basically just turning a blind eye. As long as you don’t do too much, the factory guards are too lazy to care about it.
So many forces gathered in Shanhaiguan to wait to cut off the heads of Jiannu. They did not cause a big mess first, and there were no incidents of revenge in the streets. It was enough that Sun Chengzong was proud that no one of these guys who were stabbing people took their lives seriously, let alone other people's lives.
But looking at the demons dancing around Shanhaiguan every day, Sun Chengzong was just bullshit.
After all, there are no revenge killings in the street, and there have never been many fights in the street. One day, if there were no ten or eight guys beaten and bruised noses and swollen faces all over the street, this day would be considered an abnormal day.
In this case, Shanhaiguan is now doing business such as bruises and injuries, as well as sword injuries. As long as you have the ability to treat injuries with one or two hands, you will definitely not starve to death in this magical place of Shanhaiguan.
Then Sun Chengzong discovered another problem.
In the fifth year of Chongzhen, this matter was taken by those ten brave guys. Most of the latecomers followed the trend, and there was no organization. They basically fought on their own or tied up with their regions.
In the sixth year of Chongzhen, everything changed fuckingly. These bastards never stopped in the few months when they returned to the Ming Dynasty to celebrate the New Year honestly.
Although I was still honest in the village and couldn't make a fuss, and a mere yamen runner could beat them, after these bastards came to Shanhaiguan, Sun Chengzong knew that these goods had never stopped even during the Ming Dynasty.
In the fifth year of Chongzhen, most of these bastards were in groups of more than a dozen or dozens of people, obviously they were in the village and then hugged them into large groups.
In the sixth year of Chongzhen, except for having no equipment to buy from Shanhaiguan, these bastards were not as strict as regular troops, and had no qualified military commander, the rest had already begun to have the prototype of the army.
Then Sun Chengzong started to have a headache.
Although these people together, including those who have already arrived and those who have not arrived, they are only a few tens of thousands of people, and they have to be included in the servants of the noble family.
But all the two thousand people were guys who were licking blood from the knife, and it was not ambiguous to cut people with the knife.
If you want to make a big news, I don’t know how many people will be unlucky and then the people will fall into the ground.
Sun Chengzong's memorial was written very clearly, explaining in detail the situation of the killing talents in Shanhaiguan, and explaining his own concerns. What should be done is not something Sun Chengzong himself can decide on.
Even Zhang Weixian didn't know how to solve this problem to cut people with a knife, or was it Jiannu. From time to time, even Jiannu's army dared to ambush the number of people, with 10,000 or 20,000 people.
The placement of these 20,000 people anywhere except the Ming Dynasty is a force that cannot be underestimated, even Jiannu.
Jiannu, there are less than 10,000 people in the banner, and only one or two thousand killing talents will be enough to put the number of people in Jiannu’s two or three banners.
If it is placed in Japan or other small countries in Nanyang, only if the equipment and logistics are up to the top, it will be considered a force that can destroy the country.
The fucking thing is that these killers are not regular soldiers at all. There is no military supervisor and no one cares about them.
Zhang Weixian dared to bet with his title as a British Duke. If it weren't for the living Jiannu being valuable than the dead, these bastards wouldn't have caught Jiannu at all, but had all cut off their heads.
After all, using human caps to calculate merit is easier and much better than getting a living person back.
That's right, the dead Jiannu is worth five taels of silver, and the living Jiannu has increased from the original five taels to ten taels.
Even no matter whether it is Jiannu or not, as long as it is not the ordinary people of the Ming Dynasty, it doesn’t matter whether the rest is Jiannu or not.
The subordinates of Lin Fankhan, Oba Taiji, are worth this number.
What was submitted to Emperor Chongzhen together was not only Sun Chengzong's memorial, but also another memorial by Duke Hu Guo Wanyan Hong.
Wanyan Hong's requirements are very simple. They either have to be attached to them or send someone to teach the Ming Dynasty's writing etiquette, and they and their tribes require a comprehensive Chineseization and will no longer be a barbarian.
It's so fucking scary. Those red-eyed bastards are rampant in Liaodong, especially the sound horses in Shandong. The horses run and the bells ring, and then someone will fall to the ground or be captured.
The reason why Wanyan Hong gave this memorial was that Shandong Xiangma joined forces with the Pao Ge from Sichuan and the old Qin people from Shaanxi to loot a small tribe that was attached to the Omataiji Korqin tribe.
This tribe is not big, with only a few hundred people in total. The whole tribe survived were all capable young and strong, and the rest were all dead, and no one was left behind.
As for the little money in the entire tribe, Mr. Xiangma naturally accepted it with a smile.
Wanyan Hong felt that it was so fucking dangerous on the grassland, especially the guys from the Eighth Tribe of Xibe and Oba Taiji's Korchin Tribe were just stupid and couldn't tell whether they were in appearance or living habits.
Although I am now close to the Ming army, not far from Haizhou Guard, there is basically no possibility of accidental injury.
But this matter is scary! scary!
Looking at these two memorials, Emperor Chongzhen was really amused.
Wanyan Hong’s memorial is easy to handle, just just approve it.
It is impossible to be in a relationship. If you come to the gate, who will give my eldest son, the future His Highness of the Liao King, to work hard?
You, the grandfather, should stay outside the pass and follow the Liao King Zhu Cihuang to conquer the country.
So, Emperor Chongzhen meant to find some guys who like to promote Confucian education and throw them into Wanyan Hong's tribe, so that they could accept Confucian ideas and work hard for themselves.
It is best to sell your son after selling it, sell your grandson after selling it, and sell your son and daughter to sell rice for Daming.
As for the memorials handed over by Sun Chengzong, Emperor Chongzhen actually didn't take it seriously.
These guys became Tibetan mastiffs outside and were useful. They would still kneel on the washboard when they went home. If they were to die, they would be considered like a rhubarb. There was no need to worry about them rebelling or something.
Unless they can't survive, these guys will evolve, otherwise they will still pay taxes and give them to their daughters.
But the number of people is too large, which is indeed a problem, especially in the future, the Ming Dynasty will have decades of hardship. If you really force these guys who are used to chopping people and killing people, it will be a lot of fun.
For these guys and other soldiers, their first reaction when encountering problems is to treat the problem as a nail, treat themselves as a hammer, and just smash them. If you don’t have enough, you will do it again.
Then Emperor Chongzhen thought that the later French Foreign Mercenary Group was a good thing, and then he looked through history books and found that the military soldiers were a good thing.
Look at the killers who are active in Liaodong now. When it comes to killing people with swords, the one who is the best is a good person, and he does not have his own direct Shangguan, and they are all organized by the village.
The equipment is very close to the regular army of the Ming Dynasty. Except for muskets and cannons, there are basically the rest.
The most important thing is that these guys bring their own dry food.
How could Emperor Chongzhen not like such a good source of soldiers?
After thinking about it, Emperor Chongzhen called Zhang Weixian over, and then the two of them discussed whether to give these guys a fixed identity?
For example, the government soldiers? For example, the temporary corps?
The Ming Dynasty did not care about their equipment or their logistics, but there was no problem if it was to buy it.
Similarly, they do not set up any military supervisors or pay them.
The only condition is that when necessary, we must cooperate with the regular army of the Ming Dynasty. Of course, there is a reward to get it.
Of course, the prerequisite is that these killings must be reported in the Governor's Office of the Five Army and recognized that they were the reserve officer of the Ming army.
Chapter completed!
