In Daluo City, Jiaozhou, it was easy to see the few gaps between continuous rain and rain.
Under the sun shining through the mottled and cracked clouds, Zhou Huaian also rode the tall horse "Pippi Shrimp II", surrounded by his men with bright flags and armor, and stepped slowly amidst the sound of rumbling drums that cleared the way. Entered Daluo City, Jiaozhou, and enjoyed the cheers and praise.
"Long win..."
"mighty.."
"Righteous teacher... Righteous teacher..."
Along with it were the various ceremonial armors and other kinds of trophies seized from the Nishihara barbarians. Among them are the bronze drums with the patterns of landscapes, birds, beasts and human faces. There are as many as hundreds of faces and the Lao Gao who is on top of the big cars;
According to Zhou Huaian’s plan, he intends to cast the bronze drums and other bronzes seized from the Xiyuan Man on the spot together and then mold them into rough "Pingnan" commemorative medals and distribute them to all who participated in the Annan campaign. The soldiers, as well as the brave generations of native soldiers who followed the outstanding combat, served as special souvenirs for boosting morale and important evidence for passing on to future generations and descendants.
In addition, there were groups of local barbarian chieftains who were strung up by ropes and wore a feather crown and wrapped in a cloth. They were also driven by knives and guns and entered through the city gates to complete the rebels' parade in the local Kuagong. The process part of the military parade.
The only thing they had to face and welcome was the unabashedly hateful raps and curses of the soldiers and civilians all over the city, as well as the rotten vegetables, sludge, garbage, which were like a rainstorm. As long as someone accidentally falls, they will soon be submerged in the rapidly accumulating dirt.
And outside the city gate, the heads of the savages that have been transported one after another have been piled into two small hills higher than the city wall; then they will be covered with lime and then covered with mud, and they will eventually stand on top of them. Built a pavilion on the monument as a commemoration;
Even the names have been taken, one is the barbarian hill, and the other is the captive base; it is also a long-lasting shock to those barbarians and foreign captives who dare to re-offend the land of Annan, or the potential forces that dare to stand on their own back from China. And warnings.
At least it is necessary to maximize the use of the results after the war, and the skills and vision of Zhou Huai'an as a posterity of the show and propaganda are completely enough to slap the vast majority of people in the entire era.
Jiaozhou Waiguo is a rather young city. In addition to the large number of residential buildings in Lin Licibi, almost everywhere in Daluo City are traces of Gao Pian that year; it is said that the Gao family was used to support the buildings of Daluo City. From the riverside outside the city, Hong bridges, water troughs, high pavilions, Chuang Bieguan, Lidaotang, and monk's office were also built.
Therefore, in Zhou Huai'an's field of vision, from thatched roofs to heavy-tiled eaves, terraces and gardens, almost all buildings and furnishings are the same as in the mainland. The appearance of the people and the people is also a Han family with short crotch gowns and turbans The flavor, and there is no such thing as head-wrapping, cloth wrapping and caged sweaters that are common in rural areas;
And at the fork of the street, you can still see the crowds from time to time, in front of the surrounding fruits, flowers, green branches and other fruits, flowers, green branches, etc., and there is also a group of advocacy. Something was playing with his hands. Zhou Huaian couldn't help showing an inexplicable smile at the corner of his mouth.
"I don't know what the leader thinks at this moment..."
As a newly joined subordinate and a symbol of local obedience, Fan Chuo, who was closely following him, asked when he saw it.
"I was thinking, these things and scenes are a bit familiar..."
Zhou Huaian's Tao.
"Maybe more than ten years ago, they also welcomed the envoy in this way..."
"If the Zeng family didn't go the wrong way back then, I'm afraid it was him who enjoyed this scene..."
"It made the leader laugh..."
Fan Chuo is quite impressed
"This is just a practice and method used by the local people to go on their own lives... A certain had high hopes for it at the beginning..."
"Of course it is understandable. I am not the kind of unreasonable and narrow person..."
Zhou Huai'an continued with intention.
"But those on both ends of the first mouse, or those who are devoted to speculation, don't expect to live better... Ordinary people can't help but speak lightly and can only follow the trend."
At this point he used his riding whip to make a fictitious stroke.
"But as a leading figure who has influence and appeal in every move of the place, can it only be evaded by a imaginary way..."
"The Rebels always have clear merits and demerits, and rewards and punishments are supported by evidence.. merits are rewarded, merits and demerits can be offset,"
"And if you are only at fault, don't expect to be able to easily escape by relying on the so-called status."
Fan Chuo's words are obviously not aimless, and they undoubtedly represent the attitude of temptation and negotiation that some people in the city have entrusted with.
Originally thought that there was a price of bitter battle and reciprocating see-saw, but by the way, Daluo City, Jiaozhou could be liquidated and sorted out. However, I didn't expect that a pioneering force that rushed back would be enough to solve the problem, and the champions collapsed nine times and Daluo City took the initiative to open the door and surrender;
Although there are some leading generals who are able to exert their subjective initiative while defeating the weak points of the enemy; there are also reasons for the split in the city of Daluo, and the Zeng family is already unpopular; But it also brought a lot of trouble to Zhou Huaian's follow-up arrangement and plan.
At least he couldn't take advantage of the chaos and resistance in the process of breaking the city as expected to clean up and calculate the old pattern in the city; after all things settled down, he wanted to deal with these intertwined ones. If the old forces are liquidating, they can't use fierce and cruel bloody methods to quickly cut the mess;
But only afterwards, the division of accounts can be used to disintegrate the basic tactics, win over and win some close forces to be rewarded as an example, and then make some less involved forces remain neutral and out of the way, and finally can isolate and liquidate the last part of the chief evil and the main conformity. Elements.
After all, since ancient times, the Chinese have been famous for being a lecturer and have committed crimes of crimes against the people. Even if they are arranged for a pile of temporary planting and planting charges like Zhou Daishang, they are always better than the "unnecessary" kind made by Qin Hui and Zhao Go Unreasonable and ugly.
With this complicated mentality and calculations, Zhou Huaian did not directly enter the government offices in Jiaozhou inner city to declare some kind of dominance; instead, he first came to the Ma Gong Temple in the city where the incense is quite strong, because it enshrines General Fubo's horse. Yuanyijiang is also known as Zhennan Temple, worshipping the sages of Pingnan Dingman and even the sages of the Pingnan Dingman since Ma Yuan and Shixie;
Among them, the newest seventh magic card in the left side hall is the name of Gao Pian, who regained Annan more than ten years ago. In the event of an accident, maybe your own memorial tablet will appear in it unknowingly in a few years.
And in the side hall of the historic Magong Temple specially set up in this city, Zhou Huaian also saw a white-clad former Cashi Shigao; the son of Bohai Gaomen was born in his forties, and his face was thin. The white face and Shaojiao looked a little old and described as haggard.
"The prisoner Gao has seen the Lord of the Rebel Army..."
He looked very low, and said in a dry, hoarse voice.
"May the military leader look at meager dedication, and a little bit of mercy... Don't add crime and more people..."
"Although Gao Linggong is on both sides of the enemy and us, he is full of blood and debts for our rebels as enemies..."
Zhou Huaian said without concealment.
"But defeating Nanban and regaining the land and preservation of the Han people is indelible and quality..."
"And you haven't been tainted with the blood of poor people in Annan, and the rebels are not involved in unreasonable guilt..."
"In addition, afterwards, I finally awakened to offer the city to make up for it. I can still give you another chance..."
Having said that, Zhou Huaian looked at him and said.
"You can go back and stay at home first, and I will give you a special boat for some time. Take your family and everything you can take away..."
"Whether you go north to Yangzhou or find another place to live in seclusion, it is up to you... But you have to leave all the documents related to Jiaozhou in the past, without any damage."
"Thank you for the military commander Gu Quanquan, thank you for your mercy...the prisoner will prepare now..."
The gloomy 髙鄩, who seemed to have exceeded his psychological expectations, was overjoyed and thanked him and left.
Today, there are two major groups in the city that need to be dealt with. One is the old officials of the Annan Prefecture represented by Gaofang, and the other is the large-scale gentry in the city who have supported Zeng Gong; the former is easier to handle, and there are examples of Gaohao. Models and demonstrations can only be done in the same way; a few of them should be killed, some should be held accountable, and most of the rest should continue to maintain the status quo for the time being, and the few who are interested and cooperative will be praised.
The latter was Zhou Huaian’s next focus; therefore, in the next few days, Zhou Huaian did not enter the inner city government office, nor did he accept banquets or banquets in the name of any group or individual. The meaning of entertaining; but to bring in those who were attached to the city to do the liquidation of the family and the clan, while the main army of the rebels was to maintain order.
Of course, they are not wronged. Most of the existences that are really inclined to the rebels have been liquidated by Zeng Dang; and the native soldiers who are now attached to the rebels are mostly from local rural backgrounds. Small and medium tycoons; in fact, they are not the same people who have lived in the city for a long time.
Even if there are a few old ancestors such as the Qu clan, they are also the people who have been bitter and enmity by Zeng Dang. It's nothing more than pleading for a handful of relatives who have relationships and origins; I definitely won't get involved too much by making trouble for myself in this regard.
On the contrary, because they want to take advantage of this superiority or fill the gap of rights in Jiaozhou city, and even divide the interests after the war, they need these old big clans to give way; these days also provide a lot of true and false, about these big clans in the city. This kind of black material and evidence of rampant lawlessness or collusion served as the ammunition for Zhou Huaian to liquidate their ammunition in batches.
This is also an upright and arrogant means of tearing apart and opposing the relationship between them in disguise, that is, using small and medium landlords with rural backgrounds to fight against the prestigious houses of the big clan in the city, and then completely disrupt and replace their original control. And monopolistic state-city pattern;
The Rebels acted as a relatively fair arbitrator and a similar role as a savior to avoid the possibility of overcorrecting the movement, or deviating too much from one side of the situation, and intensifying the contradiction and starting to lose control. The positive hatred and confrontation are inherited by those native soldiers and regimenters.
Therefore, in the end, there were still more than a dozen large clans that were deeply implicated. The men of the family were beheaded, women and the family property were fined and confiscated. Of course, even those who were temporarily let go, Zhou Huaian could justify asking them. Pay the corresponding price.
Including the disbanding of the family and the army, giving up a large amount of family property to redeem it, splitting it into several to a dozen families, committing suicide or retreating to give way to family members, exiling family members to remote places, etc. Opinion; but it also gave them the basis and possibility of renewing their family name and blood line.
Naturally, some people regretted it, some scolded it, some sue for mercy, and some wanted to resist or flee, but they couldn't change the result of the rebels' complete control of Jiaozhou City.
In fact, as the entire territory of Jiaozhou, which is an important hub and heart of Annan, changes hands, it will be settled quickly if there is any confusion compared to other counterparts; but this somewhat reduces the possible casualties and costs. Time and effort also prevented the rebels from further intervening in places and carrying out limited reforms. (End of this chapter)
