Chapter 387 Biography of Traitors

The Manchu and Mongolian nobles in Beijing, and even Emperor Qianlong himself, would not recognize Mingfu at this moment, this skinny, dull skin, two eyes like dead fish eyes, is the Irgenjueluo Mingfu who was famous in Beijing for his handwriting.

Qianlong thought that he had no worries in the prosperous times, and regarded the position of local garrison general as an honorary title, which hurt Mingfu!

The previous Jingzhou General Yongrui was like this, and the later Jiangning General Rongbao was also like this... Now it's his turn.

It must be a tragedy to be incompetent and take on important responsibilities, and still be in this chaos.

Mingfu's wife was ready to die. After knowing the news that Wu Bi Da led the navy to rebel, Mingfu's wife was ready to die. There are poisons, white silk, and sharp swords.

The people who died are not just the two of them, but the whole general's mansion will die. If he doesn't die, will he be left to be abused by Chen Ni?

Mingfu smiled, his lips were cracked and bleeding. It's not that Fuzhou has no water, but Mingfu didn't drink it. He said, "If I had known this would happen, I should have sent you back to Beijing?" Mingfu really regretted it. There were so many opportunities to transport grain from the southeast sea to Tianjin. He just didn't expect it.

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it..."

The situation in Jiangnan was still improving last year, but it has deteriorated to this point just halfway through this year. Mingfu no longer thinks about the outside world. Several strategic locations that he had high hopes for were broken by the Fu Han Army like thin paper. Not only did the Green Camp militia surrender one after another, but the Du Biao Training Army also threw away their armor and helmets, and even many banner soldiers chose to surrender. Although there were many banner soldiers who fought hard and died for their country! This made Mingfu completely lose his fighting spirit.

"Why do you still think about those things! Now, my generation is just a word of death." Mingfu deeply felt that he had implicated his wife. She could have returned to her old house in Beijing and lived a peaceful life as her own old lady. Her sons, both her own sons and her concubines, had all started families and were still in Beijing. If she were in Beijing, she would still be the rich lady of the Irgen Jueluo family.

"Since you and I are husband and wife and have been together for decades, how can we say this? It's just a death anyway." The woman's face was definitely not as calm as she said, but she still calmly placed a pot of wine and two wine glasses on the coffee table. She was wearing a shawl of the first rank imperial decree, and Mingfu was also wearing his official robe.

The wine pot and wine glasses were both top-grade bone china.

"I am a woman, and I don't understand military and national affairs. Today, when I am about to die, I will be unbridled for once. I... I really didn't expect the Qing Dynasty to be in such a mess." It was still a prosperous and peaceful era a few years ago, and the emperor went to the south of the Yangtze River to play again and again with great fanfare.

The woman was born in the last years of Emperor Kangxi's reign. Until the 33rd year of Emperor Qianlong's reign, the entire Qing Dynasty was prosperous and awesome. It was the Kangxi and Qianlong era. How could they lose half of their territory in just three or two years?

"If we lose this half of our territory, will we also lose the other half?" The woman herself was not afraid of death. She was already 52 years old, and it would not be a waste of her life if she died. But her eldest son was only 35 years old, her youngest son was only 23 years old..., and only the oldest of her grandsons was married. Tears flowed from the woman's eyes. "How come you don't even know if you can keep the throne stable..."

As long as the Qing Dynasty is still there, Irgen Jueluo will not have to worry about his wealth; if the Qing Dynasty is gone, all these will become the sins of his descendants. Thinking of the methods and severe punishment measures used by the Fu Han Army against the bannermen, the woman could not help but feel sad. How could people survive after more than ten or twenty years of hard labor?

Mingfu smiled bitterly. He wanted to tell his wife that there was no need to be afraid. There were still Manchu and Mongolian cavalry in the north. But he couldn't say such ignorant words. On the vast Huanghuai Plain, the power of the large group of cavalry is needless to say, but what if the Fu Han Army didn't go to Huanghuai?

They went by sea, and they could take a boat directly to Liaodong and Tianjin!

How many cavalrymen did the Qing Dynasty have to defend Huanghuai, Tianjin, and Liaonan?

How much money and grain did the Qing Dynasty have to support these cavalrymen who must be hundreds of thousands?

Mingfu really didn't know whether he could sit on the Manchu country and continue to pass it on to his children and grandchildren. He sighed heavily.

"Report to the general, the governor, the governor is taking drugs..." Goshaha's slightly anxious voice sounded outside the door. The city had been broken, and E Ning had committed poisoning and died. A disaster was imminent!

Mingfu in the room shook his head slightly, as if he was sighing for E'ning, and also as if he was grieving for himself, "It's better to die, death will be a relief."

Mingfu picked up the wine pot and poured two glasses of wine. He first picked up a glass, but did not drink it, but looked at the cream-colored wine glass against the light, bone china, bone china! The bone china that Chen Ni first made has now entered the rich and powerful families from all over the country. "Is the Qing Dynasty ruined by this small bone china?"

As the "magic art of making weapons" was confirmed, no one believed that Chen's weapons, guns and cannons were inherited from their ancestors and accumulated bit by bit. According to the Qing Dynasty's estimation, this magic art of making weapons was enough to make the Fu Han Army's weapons, guns and cannons reach today's abundance in three to five years. Many people also remembered a private iron den that suddenly appeared in Xiang County before Chen's uprising. In less than a year, that den sold more iron materials than the entire Henan iron material production, and all of them were of high quality.

At that time, many people were confused about the mastermind behind the incident and could not figure out the details. But now it is clear at a glance.

If the newly appointed flag officer had not been too greedy and reckless, and had not forced Chen to do something without knowing anything, would the Chen family really rebel? With the income of the Chen family at that time, it would only take seven or eight years to become a wealthy family. Would they really rebel unless they were at their wits' end?

These details and speculations have spread all over the country in recent years. Many people also learned about bone china, and knew about this thing that made Chen family involved in the vortex of interests for the first time. I don’t know how many people murmured in private, and many curses fell on Guo Luoluo Changrui’s head, but the Qing Dynasty still "firmly believed" that Chen family had planned for a long time!

Mingfu also scolded Changrui in the past, but now he has another mentality, sad!

Yes, sad! ,

It’s not because Changrui’s reckless behavior caused the current consequences, but because the government and the public pushed all the faults to a small county magistrate.

Compared with the former, the latter’s incompetence, evasion, and cowardice are the greatest sorrow of Daqingguo!

"Xilinjueluo E'ning, I offer you a cup." Mingfu drank the poisoned wine in the cup. While the poison had not yet taken effect, Mingfu filled another cup of wine and said to his wife: "Madam, you have suffered, I offer you a cup. We drank the wedding wine on the first day of our relationship. Today, I have to die, so I will drink another cup."

Mingfu's stomach began to hurt, and his face became even paler...

He raised his head and the poisoned wine went down his throat.

The two wine cups fell to the ground. The couple with the highest status in Fuzhou drank the poisoned wine together. After only a moment, the severe pain made Mingfu's eyes suddenly round, as if they were about to bulge out. Black blood flowed from the corners of his eyes, nose, and mouth, and his face was covered with a layer of black ash. But Mingfu endured the severe pain and sat on the chair tightly, with his official robe hanging on his skinny body. A moment later, Mingfu's wife also bled from all seven orifices, and she was deader than dead.

When the troops of the First Division rushed into the General's Mansion, the Fu Han Army did not encounter any resistance. A group of people knelt on the ground. There were two or three hundred Goshha alone. Swords and guns were piled up in two piles, and there were four small cannons. These people surrendered so easily!

Seeing the Fu Han Army pouring out of the gate, they kept bowing their heads: "General, spare my life, General, spare my life..."

Chen Ming had already boarded the water department at this time. When he heard the cheers that suddenly rang out in the city, when he heard the cheering Fu Han Army soldiers shouting "Mingfu is dead, E Ning is dead", he just smiled slightly.

This result was destined from the moment the Fujian Navy surrendered!

Looking at the entire Fuzhou City, there were chaotic soldiers, flames, and shouting everywhere, and several of them were obviously arson.

"Your Highness, the governor's office was set on fire, and it seems that the family of Qian Qi, the governor of Fujian, is still inside."

"Qian Qi?"

When Chen Ming heard this name that made him hate him, his face was full of cold smiles, "This bastard deserves to die."

The activities of the Fujian Dark Camp have been rampant recently. Even if the Han officials of the Qing Dynasty do not agree to be won over, they will not bite back. But Qian Qi is the rare latter type. He is really a loyal dog raised by the Qing Dynasty, a good dog!

Qian Qi is from Hangzhou and has been friends with Yuan Mei for more than 30 years.

The Dark Camp took Yuan Mei's handwritten letter to contact him, but Qian Qi called people to catch him and sentenced him to death by slicing.

So far, Qian Qi is the first person to use such cruel means. After entering Fuzhou City, Chen Ming can't spare anyone, but he can't spare him.

"Order Yuan Mei to supervise the work and cast a kneeling iron statue of Qian Qi. No, not just Qian Qi."

"Tell Yuan Mei that in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, those who surrendered to the Tartars and were willing to be traitors; those who are like Qian Qi in today's war; all those from Zhejiang Province should be cast into a temple of traitors and traitors, and thrown into it. This governor will make them infamous for thousands of years!" Not just Qian Qi, but also the previous Yao Qisheng and Li Zhifang. Do all the work at once!

"We also need to compile a book "Biography of Traitors" and another book "Record of Traitors"!" The more Chen Ming thought about it, the more reliable he felt. These things can be done now.

"Shen Guozhen will lead this matter, compile the collection of Jiangnan literature, and compose these two books."

"It is imperative to carefully check the history books, and carefully consider both official and unofficial history. Those who have left their names in the history books, all the provincial and ministerial officials and above during the Ming and Qing dynasties, will all be labeled as traitors and traitors, that is, in their temples." In the original time and space, Qianlong organized the compilation of "Bi Chen Zhuan" during his own rule. From this, we can see that the roots of the Manchu Qing Dynasty are really firmly established in China. Otherwise, how could Emperor Qianlong waste the "Xuan Li Gong Chen" of the year?

Qianlong already had the capital to squander at that time, so in order to further consolidate his rule, ease contradictions, disintegrate the Han national consciousness, and achieve stability in Daqingguo, while vigorously commending loyal officials (that is, Ming Dynasty officials who died in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties due to anti-Qing, such as Yan Yingyuan, Lu Xiangsheng, etc.), he ordered the compilation of "Qin Ding Guo Shi Biography of Bi Chen Biao" or "Bi Chen Zhuan".

Now the situation has changed drastically, Qianlong will certainly not do this. Then let Chen Ming replace him.

Just like Hong Chengchou and Shi Lang, who were born in Quanzhou, the temple of traitors and traitors in Fuzhou will never forget them. Chen Ming will make sure that these traitors and thieves will not rest in peace even after their death. He will build a temple of traitors and traitors in each province, so that these people will be nailed to the pillar of shame of the nation forever.

"These two books, the governor wants to let the world know about them." To calm people's hearts and to know who is loyal and who is not. Chen Ming especially remembered the words he wrote to Qian Qianyi when he was searching for the Biography of Traitors on Baidu: The barking words were published in the collection, and their intention was just to cover up their shame of losing their chastity, which was particularly despicable and shameful. This kind of people are typical of those who want to build a memorial archway after committing adultery!

In a word, Chen Ming wanted them to be infamous for thousands of years, not just among scholars, but also to be infamous in the eyes of the common people like Qin Hui, Wang Shi, Wan Qi Xie, and Zhang Jun who were kneeling in front of Yuewang's tomb! Always suppressed under the moral bottom line.

What did the Qing Dynasty think of a mere copy of Biography of Traitors? Who would go and read that when they had nothing to do? How many people could see that book? The Temple of Traitors and Traitors was a visible and tangible entity. In the future, when the school system is promoted, primary school students, middle school students, and university scholars will be brought here every year for ideological education.

Where can the biography of traitors that only exists in books be more clear and concise in reality?

"Report to Your Highness."

"Fuzhou's treasury, military supply warehouse, and granary have all been captured."

"Hahaha..." Chen Ming turned his head and looked at Liu Wu and Xiong Bingzhang, "So the whole Fuzhou is in my hands." Even the smallest sparrow is meat, not to mention that the military supply warehouse and granary reserves in Fuzhou are not a small number. As for the treasury, forget it.

"Tell the troops to do their best to eliminate the remaining enemies. Post a notice to reassure the people tomorrow morning and order the whole city to cut their braids. All captured bannermen are detained in Mancheng, and the captured bannermen and their families are matched as quickly as possible." The rest can be dealt with at their convenience.

Just as Chen Ming was making great efforts, Fu Liang, who retreated from Jianning to Shaowu Prefecture, was also beaten out of Shaowu Prefecture by the Fu Han Army. Fu Liang fled to Guangze County, northwest of Shaowu Prefecture. Going west from here, past Tieniu Pass and Wufeng Mountain, you will reach the border of Jiangxi.

Fu Liang was unscathed, retreating all the way from Jianning to Shaowu, and then from Shaowu to Guangze. Fu Liang, who had never been to the front line, certainly would not be injured. The two or three thousand militiamen he had recruited with silver had all fled. The only ones left were the hundreds of remnants of Jianning and Shaowu, and the hundreds of "loyal guards" who followed him from Nanjing to Fujian!

"There are more than 50,000 taels of silver. It's enough to recruit two or three thousand people in Fuzhou, and then we will go to Nanchang."

Fortunately, Mingfu was a good man. Not only did he let him out of Fuzhou, he also gave him a large sum of silver. Fu Liang looked far away in the direction of Fuzhou City. I don't know if Fuzhou was captured by the Fu Han Army at this time.

Fu Liang never expected to be the leader of Fujian Lu Yong. He just wanted to take a sum of money and leave Fuzhou, leaving this place that was about to be doomed. Then he waited for the big surprise that Mingfu gave him, and he was so happy that he almost cried. Changing the generals on the battlefield, and using himself as a bannerman to replace Huang Shijian, a Han Chinese, what kind of stupid person can do this?

Fuzhou is finished! Completely finished.

So Fu Liang jumped out of the fire pit without stopping. Now he didn't know whether the fire pit had turned Mingfu and E Ning into ashes?

The cleansing work in the whole Fuzhou lasted for two days and one night before it was completed. The Fu Han Army caught nearly 10,000 Qing soldiers, civilians, and 400 to 500 bannermen from the homes of the people.

The number of bannermen stationed in Fuzhou was not as many as those in Jingzhou and Nanjing. The number of bannermen here was only over 4,000. It also included 1,500 to 1,600 people from the left and right camps of the general's green flag. After deduction, the total number was less than 3,000. But when the war started, all the bannermen were added to the army. These bannermen plus their families, Fuzhou bannermen were about 20,000, plus the bannermen who fled from the north, Fuzhou had 30,000 bannermen at its peak.

But after the Fu Han Army broke into Fuzhou, they randomly checked the entire Manchu city, and found only 13,000 to 14,000 bannermen, including the old, weak, women and children.

"Do you think that you are Han Chinese just because you cut your braids and changed your Han surname?"

"It's not that easy. Send the order to strictly investigate the hidden bannermen in all places." Even if the effect is not great, they have to scare them and make them live in anxiety and uneasiness day and night. Just like those wanted criminals who have changed their appearance, the photo on the wanted poster may not look like his current face, but seeing the wanted poster can still make them tremble with fear.

During the two nights of the purge, the First Division and even the Guards Brigade have violated military regulations and discipline. Especially in Manchu City. The patrolling gendarmerie and the military court that received the tip-off have caught them red-handed several times.

Chen Ming took a look at the report and threw it aside. The Fu Han Army is not a red army, how can a soldier not violate military regulations and discipline? As long as these bastards remember not to provoke Han people, they have not touched Chen Ming's psychological bottom line.

Of course, a detailed analysis will reveal that most of those who violated military rules and discipline were new troops that were inserted during the reorganization and adjustment. The veterans are generally better disciplined, and those new soldiers may commit rape or robbery, but not many dare to kill people.

The more Chen Ming muddles around in this era, the lower his psychological bottom line becomes, and he himself did not realize this. Habit becomes nature!

At first, he absolutely could not accept rape and robbery. In the matter, he could choose to tolerate it for the sake of the overall situation, but he absolutely did not accept it in his heart. But now he feels a little accustomed to it. He has already felt in his mind that the soldiers under his command cannot strictly abide by military discipline, and he does not believe that the military laws he has formulated can be followed and implemented without any compromise.

It's just that Chen Ming's psychological bottom line is still much higher than the standard line. At the same time, he also knows that the biggest enemy of a strong army is not the strong enemy on the battlefield, but the various unhealthy tendencies that undermine military discipline. This is the most fatal weakness of an army.

The Communist Party of China has to carry out rectification, and Chen Ming feels that he must also rectify military discipline when necessary.

Rectifying military discipline is to fight against unhealthy tendencies, which is to fight against your biggest enemy. If you relax a little, the enemy will have an opportunity to take advantage. To build all kinds of people into a strong army with strict discipline, you must always work hard.

This is sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat.

He has long been prepared to kill one person to warn the hundred, but the time is not now.
