Han’s Son is Not a Slave: Chapter 278 canton general

Guangdong in March is the time when the weather is most suitable. If we go to Guangdong for the next month, it will be very hot. Replica visit 7777772e766f6474772e636f6d But no matter how suitable the weather is, the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Li Shutai, is also sweating. . In order to welcome Hahamu and Galai Daoka, all the soldiers and civilians in Guangzhou were mobilized. The King of Pingnan, Shang Kexi, and the King of Jingnan, Geng Jimao, also dressed up and went out of the city to greet Hamu, the upstart of the Manchu Yellow Banner.

At 10:00 in the morning, Haha Mu sent a quick message, saying that he led the Eight Banners soldiers to enter the city at noon, and there was no need to alert Guangzhou at that time. But having said that, how can the civil and military officials in Guangzhou dare to take it seriously? King Pingnan and King Jingnan both left the city early to welcome the marquis, how dare those people below them dare to be bigger than the prince? If you don't go, your job will definitely be smashed by the above!

Li Suotai was not in a hurry to leave the city, but led a group of people from the governor's yamen and Zhu Guorong, the prefect of Guangzhou, to make a final inspection of the newly built city.

After receiving the government's decree to set up the city in Guangzhou, the Governor has put all his thoughts on the construction of the city. Finally, the sky pays off. After two months of construction, a brand-new city that can accommodate more than 100,000 people seems to have stood in the middle of Guangzhou city overnight. From a distance, it is both tall and majestic. .

The construction speed is so fast, mainly due to the fact that Guangzhou is the capital of Guangdong Province. Therefore, Guangzhou City was built to a great extent in the Ming Dynasty. Coupled with the massacre of Guangzhou by the Qing army, the population in the city was higher than that in the heyday. It is more than ten times less, so there are many open spaces and empty spaces in the city, which saves the procedure of relocating residents before construction and saves a lot of time.

In order to allow Manchu soldiers and their families to have good living conditions after they live in Manchuria, Li Ratetai deliberately chose the best location in Guangzhou City to build Manchuria, which occupies a third of the area of ​​Guangzhou City. Not only that, Li Suotai also ordered the renovation of the original Han houses in Manchuria. Remove the unsightly full cover.

As a result, it is necessary to repair the city wall, build houses, renovate the streets, and excavate the moat. However, the court's will was that Guangdong must complete the construction of the city before the arrival of the Eight Banners. Therefore, the only way that Li Suotai took was to use a large number of people's husbands to complete this impossible task with human life regardless of the people's life and death. This resulted in the tragedy of more than 4,000 Han people's husbands dying in the Manchurian city construction project for more than two months. Pathetic. The deaths of the more than 4,000 Han Chinese husbands were not worth mentioning in Li Suitai's eyes, and he didn't even take it seriously. Only the newly added bones on the mass graves outside the city of Guangzhou preserved the matter.

.........

"My lord, it's getting late, is it time to go out of the city to prepare?"

Following the Governor's tour around the city, Zhu Guorong, the prefect of Guangzhou, was a little worried that he would not be able to leave the city in time to meet the soldiers of the Eight Banners, so he reminded Li Shuitai a few words.

"No hurry, it's too early, it's too early."

Li Soltai is still in no hurry. He took out the scented handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the sweat on his forehead. He patiently went to the grain depot to have a look. It was confirmed that the rice supplied to the soldiers and their families of the Eight Banners was full of rice. There was no old rice and gravel. Shu also brought in the freshness from outside the city in the morning, and then he showed a satisfied smile and ordered to go down to prepare the sedan chair. Everyone accompanying him followed him out of the city to welcome the arrival of the Guangzhou General and the soldiers of the Eight Banners.

Before leaving, Zhu Guorong looked back at the granary full of rice, and he was very contented, because the food, vegetables, and fish were all managed by Zhu Zhifu, and those Manchu soldiers would definitely be wary of the Guangzhou government when they entered the city. The supply is very satisfactory, and Canton General Ha Mu will certainly praise Zhu Guorong for him.

When Li Suotai went outside the city, he saw Shang Kexi, the king of Pingnan, and Geng Jimao, the king of Jingnan. There were a lot of capital and deputy capitals under Shang Fan and Geng Fan, and the red tops shone in the sunlight. Shang Zhixin, the son of the Prince of Pingnan, was also there. But he was not as arrogant as before, he just stood beside his father silently with his hands down, and it was rare that he didn't show the face of Geng Jimao, who was two years younger than him.

"A vulgar warrior who fails to succeed and fails!"

Li Shuitai secretly scolded Shang Zhixin's defeat in Xinhui for causing heavy losses to the Qing army, but on his face he calmly stepped forward to the monk Kexi and Geng Jimao politely.

"The two princes came much earlier than the next official, hehe."

"It's not too late for the Governor. The king and the king of Jingnan were also bored in the mansion, so they came early. By the way, exercise and enjoy the beauty of Nanyue, hehe."

Shang Kexi smiled politely with Li Suotai, but Geng Jimao was very indifferent. After two sentences, he turned his head and looked north.

"Young man is proud but he doesn't know how to be a man, he will end up in trouble in the end!"

Li Suotai snorted and pretended not to see him, as if he had met an old friend, the monk Kexi said something about the scenery outside the city.

Shang Kexi is also a mature person, and he doesn't like Li Suotai in his heart, but at the moment, he is very happy to talk to Li Suotai.

Outside the city gate, the Han army inlaid with blue flags of Shangfan and the yellow flag of the Han army of Geng Fan have brought in a lot of elite soldiers. Li Suitai's cronie, Hu Qili, who retreated without authorization in the Battle of Xinhui, also led a team of 500 pacesetters. In terms of military appearance, they were no worse than those of the two feudal vassals.

In order to win the favor of the above, Zhu Guorong specially organized thousands of people to go outside the city to welcome the marquis.

Just after noon, Kuaima, who was sent to inquire about the army's itinerary, returned, saying that the soldiers of the Eight Banners would arrive in a moment.

Hearing the news, Li Suotai was refreshed and immediately ordered to go down to welcome the Guangzhou General and the garrisoned Eight Banners.

Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao also gave their orders to go down, and the flag soldiers of the two vassals all cheered up and held their heads high.

Just after noon, the Manchu Eight Banners soldiers garrisoned in Guangzhou, led by the new Guangzhou General Ha Mu, appeared in the sight of everyone at the city gate.

Haha Mu was originally stationed at Jiangning Angbang Zhangjing, under the Zhenghuang Banner of Manzhou. When Li Dingguo first attacked Guangdong the year before, Haha Mu once led Jiangning's troops to the south to support him, so Haha Mu is also an acquaintance for Guangdong civil and military.

Li Suotai very much welcomed Hahamu's appointment as Guangzhou general, and he had long made up his mind to curry favor with the new general. There was no other reason, but because Hahamu had someone in the court, and that person was a close associate of the present day - minister of the interior, concurrent Sony, who is also the Chancellor of the Interior and is in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Sony's Manchu surname is Hesheli, and Haha Mu is also Hesheli. (To be continued.)
