Chapter 548

Chapter 548

After the Daming Self-Defense Station broke down, it owed too much to the military households, and forced the military households to suffer too much.

Rao is a few children of military households who became officials through their studies and successfully transformed their families into officials and nobles. There are still many hardships for military households that are unbearable.

Therefore, many people who became Ministers of the Ministry of War even through studying and becoming officials still want to lose their military status, and some even study and take the imperial examination to become an official just to lose their military status.

Because of this.

Now that Zhu Yijun insists on reforming the system to make military households live more like individuals and with dignity, the sergeants under Liu Chengsi's command really empathize with Liu Chengsi's words, and they really don't want to go back to the old era of the old system.

"I'd rather die in the new era than live to see your restoration ceremony succeed!"

At this time, Wang Shouyi, the chief banner officer who had been trained in the Jingwei Martial Arts School, stabbed the enemy in the abdomen, and then rushed to the city with a Miao soldier in his arms and fell down. Before that, he yelled, expressing himself The reason for such a struggle.

And the other officers and soldiers also did not hesitate to prevent the rebels from attacking in the same way, so that the rebels did not capture Fotu Pass when the reinforcements from Chieftain Shizhu arrived.

While Shizhu chieftain was ordered by Sichuan governor Li Hualong to send white soldiers to reinforce him, Guizhou governor Ye Mengxiong also sent [-] Guangxi chieftain soldiers who stayed in Guiyang in advance and were ready to deal with the Bozhou Rebellion at any time. the goal of.

at the same time.

Liu Ting also arrived in Chongqing two months after Yang Yinglong's rebellion, and formally met with Li Hualong, governor of Sichuan, Liu Chengsi, guard of Fotuguan, Ma Qiancheng, son of Ma Douhu, son of Shizhu Xuanwei envoy, and Qin Liangyu, his wife.

"Your Majesty has made a plan first. In order to encourage the soldiers to suppress the rebellion, and orderly promote the policy of reforming the land and returning to the brigade, the Marquis is allowed to directly recruit the official school on the front line, so now I have decided to guard Liu Chengsi to protect the Buddha. Tuguan has been promoted to Guizhou Bingbei Dao, and governs Zunyi, Pingyue, Sinan and other prefectures that are about to be reformed!"

At this time, Liu Ting conveyed the decisions of the above to some civil and military officials, and began to issue orders for Jian Ba's meritorious personnel.

The first one is Liu Chengsi.

Liu Chengsi was quite excited, but couldn't hold back the tears for a moment, and felt that he didn't persist in Fotuguan for so long in vain.

You know, before this, even if he had made outstanding achievements, he was at most a general soldier, and it was impossible for him to be a soldier.

Then, Liu Ting said again: "Ma Qiancheng, the chieftain of Shizhu, has made great contributions in rescuing Buddha Tuguan, and he was awarded the hereditary magistrate of Zunyi! According to the imperial decree, after the chaos in Bozhou was settled, Bozhou was divided into two. The one near Sichuan was changed to Zunyi Prefecture, and the one near Guizhou was renamed For Pingyue Prefecture!"

Ma Qiancheng hurriedly came out to thank her, with a happy expression on his face.

Then, Liu Ting said again: "According to the policy of reforming the land and returning to the brigade, the prefect returns to the native land, and the same acquaintance returns to the exile. The magistrate is hereditary as the master of name, and receives a salary to supervise the same acquaintance on behalf of the emperor. Therefore, the post of Tongzhi has to be appointed in advance, and the Qian Zong Yu Youhua, who has made great contributions in guarding the Buddhist Tuguan, will take it up!"

Yu Youhua also came out to thank you at this time.

Liu Ting went on to say: "These official positions are tentatively determined, but whether they can become actual conferments depends on whether you can take down Bozhou and other places in the future, and whether you can wipe out the rebels. In addition, there are other official positions that have not yet been conferred. It also depends on your next performance!"

"Please don't worry, Lord Hou, you dare not live up to the court's expectations!"

Liu Chengsi and others clapped their hands and replied.

And then, Liu Chengsi and others were all active in countering the rebellion.

Needless to say, Liu Chengsi, the military officer is an important springboard for being promoted to governor, so he naturally didn't want to give up.

In this era, the governor has become an important springboard for the two capitals, and already has the power to directly report to the emperor, and has become the emperor's confidant.

Although Ma Qiancheng's magistrate is a well-known but powerless magistrate, this magistrate is hereditary, that is to say, his Ma family will have an additional hereditary official position, which can greatly reduce the number of internal affairs in his Ma family. contradictory.

After all, his Ma family has many more heirs than before, and in order to fight for the position of comfort envoy, a lot of grievances have arisen.

Now that there is a hereditary magistrate position, at least he doesn't have to fight for it.

But because whether it is Liu Chengsi or Ma Qiancheng, the official positions they are currently appointed are equivalent to promissory notes, which cannot be cashed yet. The promissory note can only be cashed by the court after the rebel sites such as Yang Yinglong have been conquered in Bozhou and other places.

Therefore, they want to quell the rebellion as soon as possible than Zhu Yijun.

"Pass down the order, the first to attack Jiangjin City, I, the magistrate, will be rewarded with a year's salary and incentives!"

For this reason, when Ma Qiancheng was in charge of attacking Jiangjin City, he directly offered a huge reward to his white soldiers under his command.

Therefore, these white soldiers rushed to Jiangjin County, holding hooks and sickles and howling, climbing mountains and ravines.

Although Yang Yinglong had an army of tens of thousands in Jiangjin County, he couldn't resist the attack of these white soldiers for a while, and when the fighting stopped for a while, he couldn't help asking Ma Qiancheng who was under the city loudly:

"The surname is Ma, you are also a chieftain, why do you have to work so hard for Zhu Yijun?!"

"Fuck your mother's fart!"

"I am an official of the imperial court. I am an honorable prefect of Zunyi. I am not a chieftain. How can I not regain the lost land for the country's suppression of rebellion!"

After Ma Qiancheng answered loudly at this time, he shouted to Yang Yinglong again: "Yang Yinglong, you wolf-hearted man, you'd better sacrifice the city obediently and accept the surrender, or you can save your whole body, otherwise, if you are captured alive by me, you will inevitably be tortured." suffering!"

Influenced by thousands of years of prefecture and county system culture, magistrates are also so-called prefects. In the eyes of the ancients, the gold content is much higher than that of consolation envoys, which is equivalent to not being a miscellaneous official, so a higher degree of Sinicization Ma Qiancheng is still very proud of being the magistrate of Zunyi.

With a sullen face, Yang Yinglong said to Yu Maochang: "The magistrate of Zunyi, Zhu Yijun has even appointed a new magistrate. It seems that he has been waiting for me to rebel, so that he can change his country and return to the people!"

"What the general said is true! Zhu Yijun's actions are not vicious, but the general will only be eaten away by him if he doesn't rebel. Now he can only put all his eggs in one basket and try his best!"

Yu Maochang said.

Yang Yinglong turned around and asked Yu Maochang: "Can't you gentlemen raise troops to support them?!"

Yu Maochang couldn't help but explain: "General Rong, we gentry are already in dire straits. We only hope that the general will save them. How can we cope?"

Yang Yinglong asked in a deep voice: "Then let them persuade the court to focus on appeasement, isn't it okay?!"

"I will try my best to do this, general, please rest assured!"

After Yu Maochang answered, he said: "But the general also has to make the court pay a heavy price. Knowing that appeasement is more worthwhile than the Qing Dynasty, it is better to give up the Qing Dynasty, so that the general can have more hope of being recruited by the court, and then look for opportunities for the future. Raise troops to find opportunities."

"It's natural!"

"I have been in Bozhou for more than ten years. I have already set up countless fortresses and dangerous gates, stored food and equipment, trained soldiers, and married many nobles in Shu. It is not easy for his court to suppress them!"

Yang Yinglong was talking, when his younger brother Yang Chaodong left and said:

"There's news from home that Guangxi wolf soldiers have attacked Wujiang Pass, stealing our way!"
