Chapter 421 This is the era of trenches!
"Bang bang bang bang, rebellion! After hearing this, the people of Jiangning rebelled, Mr. Zu, Governor of Jiangnan, Mr. Hong, Governor of Jiangnan, and Mr. Zu, Governor of Jiangnan, have rebelled!"
On the afternoon of the eighth day of the eighth day of the 13th year of the Kangxi reign of the Qing Dynasty, the people in Jiangning Cheng were busy preparing dinner, and bowed to the ancestral tablets to report to the ancestors that although the king was coming soon, before they came today, they suddenly heard someone outside beating gongs and drums while announcing the great news!
Governor Zu Zepu, Governor of Jiangnan, Hong Shiming, Governor of Jiangnan, Zu Yonglie... Finally, he rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty!
Of course, it is against the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, otherwise what should I do? Resigning to Wu Sangui? It’s impossible. Wu Sangui is still far away. It’s not enough to seek refuge now!
However, Zhu San Taisun's army had arrived at the doorstep of his home in Jiangnan Province, and might have entered. So it is the right time to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. If you rebel, Zhu San Taisun's army would take over Jiangnan safely. Zu Zepu, Hong Shiming, and Zu Yonglie did not care about how many bad things he had done in the past, once this great contribution of "dedicating to Jiangnan" was given, a hero who restored the country would not be able to escape.
After all, Jiangnan is too rich. The taxes of the six governments in southern Jiangsu alone account for more than two cities in the country! And the total population of these six governments must be more than 6 million, and Guangdong Province may not have this number... Now the people are rare. If the Ming and Qing dynasties fought in Jiangnan for a year and a half, and they would have killed people and killed people in the wild, what a pity?
If the New Ming Dynasty could swallow the six prefectures in southern Jiangsu in one bite, the population at hand and wealth would have exceeded half of the world, right?
There are wealthy people, there are heavenly soldiers and magic. Even if the New Ming Dynasty cannot unify the world, the people of Jiangnan should be able to live a comfortable and stable life from now on.
Before the Ming Dynasty collapsed, the gentry and people in Jiangnan often criticized the Ming Dynasty, which had collected "heavy taxes" in Jiangnan for more than 200 years, and also sent eunuchs from time to time to trouble the people in Jiangnan.
But after the Ming Dynasty changed to the Qing Dynasty, the gentry and people in Jiangnan realized that they were powerful!
It turns out that the "heavy tax" in the Ming Dynasty is not called heavy tax at all. The dead eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty are not fierce at all. They were beaten by others when they collect some mining taxes. The beaten people even became "righteous men". They lived happily in prison for a few years before they were released. I'll try to beat someone in the office of the Interior?
Even the people in Jiangnan did not offend the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty made a coastal migration that killed people. They got out of three days, and they would be killed if they didn’t move away. They would be killed without any reservation. They would be left wherever you go to starve to death! If you rebel, the Eight Banners Green Camp would be killed without any burying!
When encountering such a "man lord", the gentry and people in Jiangnan really regretted it. Just when they regretted it, there was a "repent medicine" in the world, and the Ming Dynasty was resurrected again.
Moreover, the resurrected Ming Dynasty has become a brand new dynasty. The news from Zhejiang and Jiangxi that the current Daming soldiers are really in a state of military discipline and are completely unsuccessful.
As news from Guangdong and Fujian, the Ming Dynasty is now working on equal land, equal taxes, equal labor, and even labor. It also founded a country with trade, encouraged industry and commerce, and established education... The lives of the people are getting more and more hopeful!
Of course, these messages are likely to be fake news, and the New Ming Dynasty should not be that good. But there are two things that are certain... First, there is a comparison between the Qing Dynasty, and it would be great if the New Ming Dynasty is just doing it casually.
Second, the army of the New Ming Dynasty must be very capable of fighting! Otherwise, they would not have swept across the four provinces of Guangdong, Fujian, Jiangxi and Zhejiang so quickly.
Since their rule is definitely better than the Qing Dynasty, it cannot be worse! And it is also very powerful in combat, which can protect the people of Jiangnan from massacre by the Qing Dynasty soldiers. What reason does the people and gentry in Jiangnan do not welcome the new Ming Dynasty?
After all, it is still the thirteenth year of Kangxi, not the era after the Qing Dynasty ruled the world for one or two hundred years.
Now most of the gentry and people in Jiangnan still do not agree with the braid on the back of their heads!
So when the news of Zu Zepu, Hong Shiming, and Zu Yonglie's "anti-Qing and restoring the Ming Dynasty" spread in Jiangning City, the people in Jiangning City were immediately excited. At least tens of thousands of people immediately put down their work and rushed to the street to "welcome the Ming Dynasty". Some even took out the Ming Dynasty robe and clothes that were under the box and changed them into - Nanjing is the capital of the Ming Dynasty!
When they saw a large group of officials and soldiers wearing the Ming Dynasty dressed on the street outside Jiangning Banner City, who seemed to be the official Ming Dynasty, riding horses or walking, and "calling against" while beating gongs and drums, they thought the Ming Dynasty soldiers had arrived - otherwise how could there be so many people outside the Qing Dynasty Governor's Office wearing the "Ming Dynasty" official uniforms and military uniforms swaying?
So everyone spontaneously started singing "Welcome the Ming Dynasty".
"I hope the Ming Dynasty, welcome the Ming Dynasty, open the city gate and throw it into the Ming Dynasty. When the Ming Dynasty comes, it will not be a slave..."
At this time, Zu Zepu and Hong Shiming were not in the parade. They had already left the inner city to see Emperor Kangxi off and report on the progress of the rebellion. Only Zu Yonglie and Zu Chenglie and other "Three Generations of Zu" led some servants and the Governor's Office, and the officials of the Admiral's Office were beating drums and drums. When the two heard that everyone on the street was singing "Welcome the Ming Dynasty", they immediately became anxious.
"I sang wrongly, it's not about welcoming the Ming Dynasty, but about welcoming the Zhou Dynasty!"
"Welcome the Great Zhou, not the Ming Dynasty!"
These two "three generations of ancestors" still want to correct the mistakes of the masses, but where did the masses listen to them? They were all clamoring!
"Welcome the Ming Dynasty! Welcome the Ming Dynasty! Welcome the Ming Dynasty..."
Anyway, everyone has decided that it is "welcoming the Ming Dynasty"!
Jiangnan Admiral Zu Yonglie was not giving up yet, and said to his personal soldiers and soldiers, "You guys shouted 'Welcome the Great Zhou' with me!"
"Yeah!"
His beard and hair were white. He responded to Zu Dashou's hometown, who had been with Zu Dashou, and then opened his throat and said to the group of small children behind him: "Little bastards, they all shouted with my Zu Da!
I hope to the Ming Dynasty, welcome the Ming Dynasty, open the city gate and throw it into the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty will not be a slave when it comes..."
The people below couldn't figure out the situation, and when he heard his old man shouting, he naturally shouted: "Look for the Ming Dynasty and welcome the Ming Dynasty..."
"Zu Da, you called me wrong!" Zu Yonglie became even more anxious, "It's welcoming the Great Zhou!"
This Zu Da was a servant who had been with Zu Dashou. He was not originally called Zu Da, but he died than him, so everyone called him Zu Da. In the circle of servants and servants of Zu's family, he was a very prestigious person.
"Admiral, Zu Da was not wrong!" Zu's old man glared and shouted, "If the admiral wants to save his life, he will follow everyone to welcome the Ming Dynasty, and then send someone to close the gates of the inner city. Don't let the flag army on the Purple Gold Mountain enter the city! Just wait for a few days, when the Daming soldiers arrive, are you still afraid that you will not have any wealth?"
Another servant will soon agree with Zu Da.
"Yes! Zu Da is right!"
"Military Gate, President Wu is still far away now, Sun Sike's flag army is on Purple Gold Mountain... We can only vote for the Ming Dynasty!"
"Yes, I can only vote for the Ming Dynasty!"
These servants and slaves of the ancestors were not brainless. Although they didn't know what "rebelled under the order" and what "Feng Ting offered the party", they knew that their lives could not be given randomly.
But Zu Yonglie still shook his head and said, "But the Green Camp soldiers guarding the thirteen gates of the inner city are all controlled by Sun Sike, so he doesn't listen to me!"
Zu Da smiled and said, "Those gatekeepers who guard the gate don't recognize Sun Sike. They are all southern soldiers who make a living. They only know that the sky is about to change, and the soldiers of the Daming are coming soon! If you don't let them welcome the Ming Dynasty, they might mutiny... Even if they don't mutiny, when Zhu Sansun's soldiers arrive, they will open the city gate and welcome the Ming army in. We will die at that time!"
As he spoke, the old man said loudly to a group of Zu family servants without waiting for Zu Yonglie to speak: "The Admiral's Army Gate has an order, and immediately close Chaoyang Gate, Taiping Gate, Shence Gate, Jinchuan Gate, Zhongbu Gate... Go and pass the order!"
"Yeah!"
The surrounding Zu family members were all "around", and then, under the arrangement of Zu Da, they were divided into five teams to seal the five gates on both sides of the northeast of Jiangning inner city.
