Chapter four hundred and seventy-eight treasure hunt, worship(1/2)
Wang Menggao sat in the government office and listened to Li Shanchang's statistics to report to the treasury in the city.
The more he listened, the happier Wang Meng was. He only knew that Jinling was rich before, but he did not expect that he was so rich.
It can be said that after occupying Jinling, the food and grass are enough to support Wang Meng's 200,000 soldiers, and they will eat for two years!
Thinking of this, Wang Meng was also a little scared. Fortunately, he didn't think about expending the city that day, otherwise he would have been expendable to death.
At this time, Hu Weiyong was taking over the civil affairs framework in the city with Tao An.
Now the division of labor between civil officials under Wang Meng is clear, Hu Weiyong is in charge of civil affairs and Tao An is the deputy.
Li Shanchang led the internal affairs of the army, including logistics, military law, etc.!
...
Three days later, Wang Meng sat in the high hall, next to dozens of local prestigious squires.
On the other side are generals in the army and civil officials under his command.
At this time, Wang Meng was furious and slapped the table heavily!
"What's going on?"
"Li Shanchang, you are in charge of military law and talk about the tragedy in the city. You actually sued the local squire together to me."
Li Shan sweated on his forehead, and he took the collected reports and recited them word by word.
"After the army entered the city, there were 326 large households robbery, of which 213 were all caused by surrendered soldiers after crossing the river."
"There are 423 insults of the people, of which 382 were caused by the surrendered troops after crossing the river."
"Thirty-six prisoners were killed, mostly by soldiers from the Pioneer Camp, killing 63 officers in the surrendered army!"
"There are still many miserable things in the city, which were done by the rascals and the defeated troops after the city was broken. All the people were arrested and they were locked up in prison!"
The more Wang Meng listened, the more gloomy the more her face became!
Staring at the civil and military officials under his command, everyone was buried!
Especially Hu Weiyong, whenever he heard that an old brother from Huaixi was involved in these things, his eyes shrank.
"Li Shanchang, please remember the military order before going to war!"
Li Shanchang's head was sweating more and more, and this time it was completely his dereliction of duty.
"Don't infringe on the people, insult women, rob large households or rob property."
"What should I do if there is a violation?"
Li Shanchang said, "Behead."
Wang Meng said, and immediately slapped the table: "Why are you still standing there? Tomorrow, drag the animals that violate military discipline and behead them, so that the people of the whole city can see our military discipline!"
"We don't want to talk about the surrendered soldiers after crossing the river, but our old brothers have been with us for at least a few years. Have we treated them badly?"
"I'm going to make a lot of orders after breaking the city, I'm not allowed to do anything randomly. If you want to play with women, go to the brothel to play casually, as long as you don't violate my military orders."
"There are still people who dare to do whatever they want and cut off all these desperate people, and use the military law to correct the military!"
As he said that, Wang Meng looked at the gentry next to him again: "I wonder if all the gentry have any opinions?"
Looking at Wang Menghu's eyes, the hearts of these gentry trembled.
An old man stood up tremblingly: "The general's military order is like a mountain, and I am all convinced."
"It's just that the general is a little strict. You just need to restrain the soldiers in the future, so there is no need to be beheaded."
Wang Meng waved his sleeves: "Old Zhou doesn't need to say much. After entering the city, I made three rules with the villagers in the city. No one can violate my military orders!"
As he said that, Wang Meng looked at his subordinates again: "Get out and restrain his soldiers, otherwise my sword would be very sharp."
...
At night, Wang Meng's room.
Zhou Yong, Sun Xiao, Chang Yuchun...Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong are all here, these are all brothers from Wang Mengqian.
"Why, everyone is here, come here to plead with mercy?"
Sun Xiao clasped his fists: "Brother, more than 600 old brothers, and the hundred and ten brothers from my Pioneer Camp, are all our fellow villagers. They have blocked the knife for us, and they are covered in scars. Do you have the heart to bear it?"
Zhou Yong also clasped his fists: "Brother, I'm dead on the battlefield. I have nothing to say, but I can't bear to ask my knife to cut off my brothers. After I go back, why do I tell my fellow villagers?"
Chang Yuchun clasped his fists and said, "Every time the soldiers of the Pioneer Camp rushed to the front. After breaking the city, they inevitably encountered several surrendered soldiers who killed their robes on the battlefield, and then they became angry and did something confused."
Wang Meng glared at Sun Xiao and Chang Yuchun: "You guys are so embarrassed to say that if you hadn't taken the lead in killing surrender before, would the Pioneer Camp be able to follow suit?"
"Have you beaten the twenty-square army before? Where is Li Shanchang? Give us the marching law!"
Sun Xiao clasped his fists and said, "As long as I spare my life from my brothers in the Pioneer Camp, let alone twenty military sticks, or one hundred military sticks, I will bear it."
Chang Yuchun: "The same is true for me. As long as the lord saves their lives, the worst thing is that he will be punished and made meritorious in the future."
Wang Meng's face was moved when he heard this.
Li Shanchang said, "Lord, our Huaixi Army is already disciplined enough. Most of the things in the city are done by those surrendered soldiers."
Hu Weiyong said, "Lord, most of our old brothers were dragged into the water by those surrendered soldiers, and they are not considered the main culprits."
Hearing Hu Weiyong's words, Wang Meng even glared at him.
Hu Weiyong hurriedly lowered his head and did not dare to say more.
Wang Meng was silent for a while and said, "A death camp will be established from tomorrow. This time, all the old brothers who violated military discipline will be thrown into the camp. In a few days, we will attack Tutuo. These people will rush to the front and make meritorious service!"
When everyone heard this, they were all happy: "Thank you, brother, lord."
Wang Meng waved his hand: "Li Shanchang, except for these more than 600 old brothers, how many people will be beheaded tomorrow?"
Li Shanchang said, "After crossing the river, there were more than 2,000 surrendered soldiers, more than 1,600 defeated soldiers."
Sun Xiao smiled: "Brother, there are 600 people less than that. If you can't see them, you will be beheaded tomorrow."
Wang Meng glared at him: "Talk too much, remember your hundred military sticks."
"If you execute a sentence tomorrow, don't hide it. Just say that you think of some accomplices, and you will save your life."
"Sun Xiao, you have to remember that news that many people know cannot be concealed."
"By the way, Hu Weiyong, record the people who were affected this time, visit more and send gold and silver."
"If those daughters who have been harmed have our brothers, they must be married to him by the media, and those who do not have one must be arranged. Anyway, there are many men in our army."
"The most important thing this time is to get rid of the aftermath. You can go around in person and don't let anyone take advantage of the loopholes."
"Also, let's focus on the gentry who came to force the palace today. Find two people with a very famous reputation and arrest them and behead them. Not everyone can force the palace!"
Hu Weiyong suddenly clasped his fists: "No!"
Wang Meng said to Li Shanchang again, "The execution will be carried out tomorrow. The surrendered officials in Jinling and the rich and wealthy families in the city will all have to watch!"
Li Shanchang nodded and said yes.
When everyone left, Wang Meng also breathed a little.
"His grandma, I want to deal with the aftermath again."
"Hu Weiyong is also useless. If he is restrained, there are still more than 600 brothers."
...
The timeline returns to the night before the city breaks.
At this time, Wang Meng spoke in the big tent, "If we obtain Jinling, how can we win the hearts of the people?"
Tao An said, "Lord is kind, and the three rules can attract everyone's hearts!"
Wang Meng's face was plain, but he just stared at Tao An.
Tao An was stared at by him and thought he had said something wrong and was about to avenge him.
But Wang Meng laughed: "The Lord respects what he said so much, go down."
Tao An immediately understood that his answer did not satisfy his lord, so he had to retreat.
Wang Meng asked Li Shanchang again: "How can you win the hearts of the people with hundreds of rooms?"
With Tao An’s past lessons, Li Shanchang naturally would not answer any kindness.
But I had no idea for a moment, so I could only shake my head.
Wang Meng still had a smile on his face: "Then get back."
Finally, Wang Meng looked at Hu Weiyong again: "What are your opinions?"
I saw Hu Weiyong twisting his beard and smiled proudly: "I have no high opinion of me, but I have a vicious plan."
Wang Meng suddenly became interested: "Let me tell me."
Hu Weiyong said, "My lord is in Huaixi, and only three rules are required to win the hearts of the people. Because of the brutality of the Yuan Dynasty, and the disasters in Huaixi have been caused by years of disasters, countless refugees have been born. The lord attacked the city and released food, treated people kindly, and lived countless people, which will definitely win the hearts of the people."
Wang Meng laughed: "And we were born in Huaixi, and the villagers formed a party, so they were naturally close."
Hu Weiyong nodded quickly: "What the lord said is very true, but the situation in Jinling is different."
