Han’s Son is Not a Slave: Chapter 1055 Don\'t say anything

Thank you book friend heid7890 for the 500 yuan reward. Your Excellency has also become the fifth leader of Bones. Sincere thanks!

The Han people often say that the sin is not as great as the children and grandchildren, and the misfortune is not as great as the wife and children. At Zhou Shixiang's place, whoever benefits, whoever deserves to die.

What happened in Fuzhou City is the best explanation of Zhou Shixiang's philosophy.

Perhaps it was his (her) grandfather, father, brother, and husband who waved the butcher's knife at the Han, but he (she) enjoyed the blood-stained fruit with peace of mind, and he (she) never accused him (her) for it. Father, brother and husband, he (she) is only learning how to inherit the ability of father and brother to kill Han people. Then, his (her) death is destined to be in line with heaven.

"It's not that I don't report it, the time has not yet come." Zhou Shixiang was tired of hearing this sentence. The gentleman wants to take revenge, only in the present day.

"There are no civilians in the city, only soldiers, men, women and children."

The whole people of Manchuria are soldiers, and they were a robber collective at the beginning of their appearance. In this collective, both men and women are performing the functions of a robber. They have an orderly division of labor, and they are stained with the blood of the Han people from top to bottom. To deal with such a gang of robbers, benevolence and forgiveness would only make one feel ridiculous.

At least, Zhou Shixiang did not order the massacre of anyone in the city, Manchu or Han. Therefore, he waited with peace of mind to wait for Fuzhou to truly become an empty city, an empty city.

When Zhou Shixiang finally stepped into Fuzhou City, he unexpectedly discovered that there was still a living person in the city, a living Manchu woman. What her name was, no one knew, because the woman was mad. The crazy woman was holding a skeleton in her arms, which looked like the corpse of a child, except for the blackened head, only the skeleton remained.

Zhou Shixiang sighed. He didn't want to think about what happened to this Manchu woman. He had a heart attack, so the blind man Li Yichui ended the poor woman's life.

In the cold wind of the twelfth lunar month, tens of thousands of soldiers turned to work as cleaners.

Numerous corpses were found from the city, and countless skeletons were salvaged from wells.

The fire that burned the corpse burned for seven days and seven nights.

After counting, more than 177,000 Han people were killed in the Fuzhou massacre, and more than 6,500 people from the Eight Banners and their families in the Manchurian garrison, and more than 4,000 soldiers of the Han Army Green Battalion died under siege.

Gui Yongzhi was appointed as the prefect of Fuzhou, and at the same time acted as the governor of Fujian to be responsible for the aftermath of Fujian and Fuzhou.

Zhou Shixiang led the army to the south. Before that, he learned that Zheng Mingjun and Zheng Zanxu's uncle and nephew led the main rebellion of the Jinxia Navy to defect to the Queen of Qi. Zheng Xi was very knowledgeable to the court. Zheng Jing.

Zheng Xi's memorial was nominally addressed to Emperor Dingwu of the Southern Capital, but the messenger came directly from Fuzhou City. In addition to the note to the emperor, Zheng Xi also sent a statement to Zhou Shixiang, expressing the meaning of surrender.

Zheng Xi is very smart. Although Huang Zhao and others did not agree to surrender to Zhou Shixiang, but with the support of Gan Hui, Xiao Gongchen and other generals, he resolutely let go of the arrogance of the children of the Zheng family, and gave up the management of the Zheng family for several generations. The ambition to call the vassal independent from the imperial court.

What Zheng Mingjun's uncle and nephew took away was not only Zheng Jing's "strength", but also Zheng Xi's "strength". Without a navy to rely on, Zheng Xi knew that with his 20,000-odd troops alone, he would definitely be no match for the Taiping Army. What's more, before that, he has to decide the winner and loser with Zheng Jing. If there is no change in the navy, perhaps Zheng Xi will have the confidence to fight against the Taiping army after defeating Zheng Jing, and win some benefits from Zhou Shixiang. Now, he no longer has the qualifications. In the end, since he couldn't even keep the title of Prince of Fujian, it would be better to hand over his army and power generously, to the Zheng family, and also to the deceased eldest brother.

Xi Gongzi has a weak personality, but he is not stupid, really not stupid.

"The eldest brother once said at the time that the Jinsha will always be handed over to the imperial court in the future. I just follow the eldest brother's will."

Zheng Xi moved out of his dead eldest brother, Huang Zhao and other hardliners faced the reality that their military power was taken away by Xiao Gongchen and other pro-court factions.

Zheng Xi's sense of interest made Zhou Shixiang even more worry-free. Out of respect for Zheng Sen, he did not intend to cut Zheng Xi's title of Prince of Fujian. As long as Zheng Xi honestly enjoyed the honor and status that a prince should have, Prince of Fujian could let him. The Zheng family has been passed down from generation to generation. Anyway, the benefits that the Zheng family provided to his navy in the future, let alone raising a prince, even raising tens of thousands of princes is nothing more than a trivial matter.

Zhou Shixiang, who acted as the king of Qi on behalf of the emperor, naturally issued an decree in the name of the imperial court, urging Zheng Jing to rein in his horse and return as soon as possible, otherwise the army would be wiped out as soon as the army arrived.

In a private letter to Zheng Jing, Zhou Shixiang used the words "don't say what is said without warning", and clearly told Zheng Jing that if he did not submit to him again, no matter how big China was, there would be no place for him.

Zhou Shixiang did not wait in Fuzhou either. The matter of Jinsha was important, but the matter in the north was even more important. He personally led the three towns and horses to the south, just to completely merge Jinsha into the Daming territory before the new year.

On the way south, Zhou Shixiang was not in a calm mood. The hilly Fujian is already barren. After more than ten years of war, it is far worse than the neighboring province of Zhejiang, and it is also much weaker than Guangdong in the south. There used to be more people and less land, but now there are fewer people and less land.

The Qing army massacred the city in Fuzhou, killing almost a quarter of the population of Fujian province. From Fuzhou to the south to Min County, Zhou Shixiang did not see a single person, and the official road was also dilapidated. The food and grass needed by the army could not be raised locally at all, and it completely relied on the transportation from Zhejiang. The Changle area where Zheng Jun was originally stationed was also sparsely populated. After entering the territory of Fuqing, the number of villages gradually increased.

In a small village beside the official road, Zhou Shixiang stopped for a short time, and the villagers watched in panic as the Taiping Army under the banner of the Ming Army marched south from the village entrance.

In the village was an old man in his fifties who was brought before Zhou Shixiang.

Zhou Shixiang asked him, "How many people are there in the village, and how many acres of land are there?"

Li Zheng said one by one, and when he learned that there were only more than 80 people in the village, only 30 people in Dingkou, and more than 100 acres of land, Zhou Shixiang shook his head. He knew that Li Zheng wasn't lying, because the area where the village was located was mostly hills, and there was very little land that could be cultivated.

Thinking that Fuzhou has become a no-man's land, and these villagers live on barren land, Zhou Shixiang said to Li Zheng: "You can go to Fuzhou, where the government is accepting registrations from the people, as long as you go, everyone can be divided into ten Mu of land, regardless of whether it is an elderly person or a child. After the land is divided, taxes will be exempted for five years, and after ten years of planting, the land will be owned by the people." After speaking, he added: "As long as you go, the government will provide farming. Cattle, seeds and a year's rations can also be provided by the local officials who live there, and living there is much better than staying here."

When Li Zheng heard that there was such a good thing, he couldn't help but hesitate, because he was afraid that the government's words would not count. Seeing this, Xu Yingyuan smiled and revealed the identity of Zhou Shixiang. As soon as he heard that it was His Royal Highness King Qi of Daming speaking, he immediately told the villagers about this good thing. The villagers were very excited when they found out. They don't care that many people have just died in Fuzhou, they only know that when they go to Fuzhou, they can not only divide the land, but also get tax-free, and more importantly, they can get a year's ration and seeds from the government. The villagers are really poor, and their food is pitiful. Although Zheng Jun is also a Ming army, but when passing through these small villages, in order to raise military rations, it is inevitable to persecute these villagers, so that the villagers run away when they see the army coming. First, they were afraid that the officers and soldiers would rob them of their rations, and second, they were afraid of being forced by the officers and soldiers to drag their children.

Guarding the fertile fields and having food and clothing, the villagers would not be willing to leave their homes and go to a strange place. But now, they just don't go, nor can they feed their wives and children. When you are afraid of poverty, you will leave your hometown and think about giving yourself, wife and children life-saving food with both hands. The news of going to Fuzhou to distribute tax-free seeds and rations naturally made the villagers excited, because it meant that they would have a better life than they are now.

The population situation in Fujian Province is definitely not optimistic. Zhou Shixiang optimistically estimated that there may be seven or eight hundred thousand, and the number of people who fled to the mountains will not exceed one million. In his previous life, this number was probably the population of one county, but now, it is the population of one province. It can be seen that the entry of the Qing army into the customs brought China what kind of damage. The situation in Jinxia may be better. After all, it is a time and space without Zhou Shixiang. Jinxia is the last land of Ming Dynasty. Countless people with lofty ideals gathered there, causing the population to explode, so that Zheng Sen had to think about it when he was there. There are ways to find new sites and obtain new food and grass bases, otherwise it will not be able to feed such a large population at all. After Zhou Shixiang planned to acquire Jinsha, he would move the population of Jinsha and the coast to various places in Fujian. First, he chose a place suitable for cultivation. If he recuperates in this way for one or two years, the population will inevitably multiply and expand, and then it will spread out step by step. Eventually recover and increase the population.

After all, population is the most basic and core foundation of a nation. Without people, the Han nationality will cease to exist. Regardless of whether the Han nationality will face the crisis of aliens or natural and man-made disasters in the future, as long as the population is large enough, this nation will eventually rise again.

Divide the land, but do not need to fight local tyrants. The situation in Fujian is very different from that in Jiangnan, and the measures taken are naturally different. Soon, Fujian Guangfu prefectures started to divide the land one after another.

"I heard that the government is dividing the land~www.mtlnovel.com~ Just go and sign up."

In the mountains, a man who looked very honest put down a big bowl with a few mouths open, and in the bowl was a bowl of rice porridge. But it is porridge, but the rice soup is crystal clear. The man put down the bowl and watched his daughter pick up the rice grains that fell on the table and put them in his mouth, and when the wife's bowl couldn't even see any rice grains, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind. He was going to sign up, to receive the land allocated to him by the government, so that the mother and son could have a full meal. The man's wife is very thin, and the long-term lack of food makes her not even feminine, and her chest is flat.

"Does the government really give us land and houses?"

A man's wife doesn't believe that there is such a benefit in the world. Before escaping to this mountain, she and her husband were tenants of the landlord's family. Ever since she married into her husband's family, she wanted to own her own land, but ten years later, she and her husband But still nothing. Now the government suddenly said that the poor will be allocated land, houses, and seeds for food rations. This is simply a dream. The more beautiful this thing is, the more she doubts it, and it always feels impossible.

"Whether it's true or not, we have to go to find out. When my daughter is old, she can't follow us and be so poor."

The man got up and picked up his daughter, and asked his wife to go down the mountain with him. Whether it was true or false, they had to go and see.
