Emperor Ming Dynasty

Inside the Beijing Imperial Palace, the atmosphere was very strong. Although a large number of soldiers were still fighting in Liaodong, the palace was celebrating the victory with great fanfare.

All kinds of zaju were staged, and it became a sea of ​​joy.

The emperor was noncommittal.

Because the same is true of Beijing as a whole.

Whether men, women, young or old, rich or poor, none of them delayed this New Year's day, or it was even more lively than the New Year's Eve.

The Ministry of Finance even offered to spend a sum of money to hold a light show to announce this moment of victory.

However, many people expressed regret that although they said that Huanglong was directly attacked, they did not catch the Manchu emperor, which caused future troubles.

The cabinet remained calm, and a deal was made to garrison [-] troops.

That is, [-] troops are stationed in the entire Liaodong, and another [-] militia are being recruited, so that the entire Liaodong Province is truly embraced.

And the price is a large amount of food burden, as well as the consumption of money and food.

Although the Little Ice Age is about to pass, there are still remnants of the tail in the end, and Liaodong is still in a state where food and clothing are barely enough.

What's more, although the Manchu Qing's northward withdrawal was hasty, it was very decisive.

It is conservatively estimated that at least 30 to [-] people left Liaodong.

And you must know that the entire Liaodong is only about 200 million, and the part that has left includes many young adults.

The Han people also suffered heavy casualties. Over the years of conquest and exploitation, the people are no different from serfs, and the population growth is extremely slow.

At this point, Liaodong has become a burden and cannot be self-sufficient at all.

If it was like the Qing Dynasty, it would have to establish feudal serfdom and exploit a large number of Han people's rations to maintain a strong army.

But this time, the folks are different.

If it is a foreign race, the Han people can only swallow their anger, but if their own court returns, they will definitely yell that they can't do it.

Public opinion was collected from the people, then conveyed to the gentry, then reflected to the officialdom, and finally collectively reached the center of the imperial court.

It's impossible, becoming one of your own, life is not as good as before, right?

Isn't Liaodong recovered in vain?
The imperial court couldn't afford to lose such a person, and the emperor also wanted face.

Therefore, after some calculations, the imperial court needs to support Liaodong with 200 million stones of grain and 100 million silver dollars every year, and then continue to emigrate in order to make it self-sufficient.

"It has to be immigrants, a lot of immigrants!"

Yan Chongxin gritted his teeth and said: "The population of Shandong is extremely crowded, and 200 million people can immigrate in ten years, completely shaping Liaodong and making it the real arm of Ming Dynasty."

"Let's not talk about immigration for now."

But the emperor waved his hand and asked, "What's the matter with the Horqin Department? Has there been no response yet?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, most of the Horqin tribes are married to the Manchus, and they are determined to do so."

"Then destroy it!"

……

Chen Yongfu entered the city through the open city gate, dismounted from his horse in front of the ramp inside the wall, and went up to the city on foot.

Ascending to the high top of the city, you can see the land outside and the countless houses in the city under your feet, and you can have a panoramic view of everything. With the widening of your sight, Chen Yongfu's heart is also broadened.

Groups of soldiers and horses entered the city like a flood, spreading across the streets in the city.

The black smoke from the burning oil in the air is filling the air, like gunpowder smoke, entangled in this rich and magnificent city. Over the sky, there are pavilions, towers, pavilions, and iron horse soldiers.
Looking at the distance, the fields and crops in spring are full of green, and the vast land can't see the edge among the beautiful mountains and rivers.

"Great rivers and mountains, finally recovered today."

Li Chengdong also followed up in three or five steps, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

This immediately destroyed the artistic conception, and Chen Yongfu couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"How did the imperial court deal with those prisoners?"

Li Chengdong asked, then smiled again: "No, how do you plan to deal with these Han troops?"

"Although they are a group of captives, they were once ours after all."

"Everyone was captured for different reasons. There are all kinds of strange things. Some were forced to land by the chief, some were captured after defeating the army, and some were captured after breaking away from the army..."

"All right!"

Chen Yongfu raised his hand and said, "Let's watch it for a while and then talk about it."

"These people have to be screened out, use them if they can be used, and forget if they can't. We don't lack this manpower."

Afterwards, Li Yingren also came up.

According to the imperial court's plan, he will serve as the commander-in-chief of Liaodong and be responsible for guarding the entire Liaodong province.

But obviously, during the Korean War, he did not show his due demeanor, and this position was not secure.

He didn't have anything to ask for, just a count.

Because the Earl is the Spyker, and the inheritance will not decrease after a thousand households.

"Hey, cheap slave, what are you looking at, why don't you hurry over?"

Outside Shengjing City.

Cao Xi looked up at the sky and looked around. Here is a field.

There used to be a lot of villagers living there, but now there are no lights in the surrounding area, and the arrival of the army scared the people away.

Surrounded by simple tents, the old tarpaulins were eroded by wind and rain, and the vegetation and smoke became stained with dirt. There were no exquisite lanterns or beautiful lamps, only rough bonfires and torches.

Under the dark night sky, everything seems to have returned to the barbaric era, rough and simple.

A ray of light in the north was extremely bright, as if a huge ray of light was calling from a distance, it was the lights of Shengjing City.

It is a prosperous and prosperous city, even if it is far away from it, you can still imagine the bright lights and warmth there from the light.

And although he did not become a prisoner, he was no different from a prisoner. All weapons and equipment were confiscated, only clothes.

He was very terrified.

The surrender was originally planned, but it was not implemented. The entire Shengjing City was given to the Ming army intact, and they, the Eight Banners Han army, became people's favorite food.

A captive of no value.

He still doesn't understand that there are more than 1 people left in the Eight Banners Han Army, how did Hauge have the guts to betray them?
"nothing!"

Cao Xi shook his head, he could only lower his head helplessly, and straightened the stones under him.

"Hmph, Jianu, you still dare to sleep? Get up for me and continue picking up rocks!"

Not far away, a big man with a torch and eyes like copper bells angrily threw a stone directly at his head.

Dodging nimbly, Cao Xi could only ask for forgiveness, his eyes were full of anger.

This man was his house slave, a house slave bought in the market.

But it changed at this time. The Ming army released all the slaves and returned them to freedom.

This time, the entire city of Shengjing erupted in joy.

The millions of slaves in Liaodong became good citizens almost at a speed visible to the naked eye.

There were even rumors in the yamen that the land they cultivated would be equally distributed among them.

This is called land to the tiller.

At this time, the Eight Banners of the Han Army were counterattacked and turned into prisoners, and everyone wished to die.

Everyone crazily supported Daming.

Cao Xi understood that Man Qing would never come back.
