Chapter 116 Copy the house by decree
Just before the beginning of the house raid, the Dazhong army first had an internal cleaning. After Xiao Tianjian was furious, the more than 500 Dazhong army generals who had been arrested by the gendarmes and who violated discipline were immediately taken back by the generals of various ministries, and more than 350 people who could be killed were escorted to them. In each area of the downtown area, and gathered a large number of people in the city to watch the punishment. They announced the guilt of these soldiers in public. They immediately ordered the big knives to fall, and cut off more than 300 heads. The remaining more than 200 people, although they were not guilty to death, they should also be beaten and punished. Some people were immediately ordered to take off. The military uniforms of the Dazhong Army will be sent to the labor camp to serve their sentences in the future.
Moreover, the Dazhong army also posted a large number of notices in the city. All the people who have been harmed by the Dazhong army can report to the designated place. The Dazhong army rises up for the people. For those who harm the people, it will never condone. In addition to asking more than 300 illegal soldiers and beheaded, those who have been harmed have also got Quite a generous compensation. In this way, the people in the capital are completely relieved. They call the Dazhong Army as the teacher of benevolence and righteousness!
Originally, it can be said that all the people in the city are ready to be harmed by the soldiers entering the city. In their opinion, in these chaotic years, it is basically impossible for those rebellious soldiers and generals not to rob or kill them. It is basically impossible for sows to climb trees, but they didn't expect that the Dazhong army to control the capital first. With such a move, these people in the capital were all surprised. At the same time, they were convinced of the Dazhong Army, and began to change their attitude towards the Dazhong Army. From the initial distrust and even hostility, they began to take the initiative to get close to the Dazhong Army.
In addition to executing a group of disciplinary generals, there were also a large number of bandits who looted around the capital when the Dazhong army entered the city. The gang thought that they could take advantage of the chaos of the Dazhong army entering Beijing and also take the opportunity to salvage a sum, but the sky is not as good as people. They robbed it. The woman also played, but before they could go home and be happy with the stolen belongings, they were broken into their homes by the wolf-like soldiers. They were tied into meat dumplings on the spot and escorted to the street. After announcing their crimes, they cut off their heads without saying a word.
This time, more than a thousand heads landed on the spot. In addition to making the people clapping their hands, they also let the people in the capital see the fierce side of the Dazhong army. After all, this more than a thousand people's heads rolling to the ground are not just a joke. This time, some unsistful guys know Dazhong. The army is so powerful that it has been completely honest.
In addition to killing people, Xiao Tianjian did not forget to buy people's hearts. In the early morning of the third day when the Dazhong Army entered Beijing, notices were posted all over the city. With the careful cooperation of the Dazhong Army, Xiao Tianjian sent troops to find several grain merchants who hoarded goods in the capital, sent troops to take over their warehouses and announced Start selling grain at an affordable price.
This move can be said to be a popular move. You should know that since Nan Zhili was taken down by Xiao Tianjian and cut off the transportation of grain to the north, Beiyi has fallen into a serious food shortage, and it is not that there is really no food supply in Beijing. In the capital, some grain merchants supported by powerful people have actually been in recent years. They have stored a lot of grain, but with the interruption of transportation, they immediately took the opportunity to raise grain prices and hoard goods to make a fortune, so that ordinary people can't afford food at all, and even a large number of people starved to death. Since Xiao Tianjian entered Beijing, how could he make these people rich, so he immediately came to be generous. Others sighed that they used the inventory of these grain merchants to sell grain at an affordable price to solve the problem of eating for a large part of the people.
This also eases the pressure on logistics. Not to mention taking advantage of the inventory of these grain merchants, he also made a small fortune. At the same time, he also won the support of the people of Beijing. Of course, this food is not enough. In order to ensure that more people can buy grain, each grain sales point, The amount of grain purchased is limited. Each family can only buy food for three days at a time, and no one is allowed to take the opportunity to hoard grain.
Of course, there is also a group of people who don't even have the money to buy affordable food. For these people, Xiao Tianjian aims to set up a porridge shed outside the city to serve porridge, to attract this part of the people in the city who have no money and food out of the city and provide them with their most basic needs, so as to avoid the continued development of a large number of people starvation.
For these people, it is a very important labor force at present. We must make full use of it and restore agricultural production around the capital as soon as possible. Only in this way, before winter, there is still time to harvest a season of grain, which can more or less reduce some pressure on the south.
As for the many workshops in the Ming Dynasty in the capital, Xiao Tianjian, after controlling the situation in the capital, also immediately issued a decree to let the craftsmen of these workshops immediately return to the workshops to resume work, and first give them some food to let them have food to eat, and then resume production as soon as possible, especially the gunpowder bureau. The most important thing is to resume production immediately to supplement the needs of the Dazhong army.
With all kinds of measures going hand in hand, the situation in Beijing quickly began to stabilize. Even some small merchants and hawkers in the streets and alleys, when they saw the style of the Dazhong army at this time, they began to gradually walk out of the house and began to do their small business.
But at this time, under the order of Xiao Tianjian, a large-scale search and raid suddenly began in the capital.
This kind of action is undoubtedly a disguised jie-grabbing action, which is no essential difference from Li Zicheng's behavior in Beijing in history. However, when the Dazhong army did it, it was righteous and did not cause large-scale chaos in the capital.
Because this list of house raiders was jointly issued by eunuchs who are familiar with all kinds of things in the capital and the fine works of the Dazhong army, the large families who were raided can basically be regarded as people with crimes, and the evidence of guilt is conclusive. When the Dazhong army generals like a wolves and tigers rushed into the yard of these large families with a certificate of guilt. At that time, when their charges were announced in front of all the neighbors, even the guys who were raided had nothing to say.
Especially for those Jinyi guards of the previous dynasty, Xiao Tianjian was even more ruthless. He uprooted them and killed them cleanly. With this alone, all the people in Beijing clapped their hands. As well as some eunuchs who were rampant in the capital were also purged this time. Although some people were not guilty to death, in the end They were not killed, but the huge amount of wealth they had recovered was still confiscated.
And the large and medium-sized soldiers and generals who raided their homes in the city also have their own clear goals. In addition, there are special people to lead the way and carry out the investigation operation only for their goals, which does not affect the lives of the surrounding people at all. Therefore, although they have launched large-scale investigation and arrest operations, for the lives of ordinary people. The impact of life is not great. On the contrary, when they heard that the Dazhong army soldiers responsible for the investigation and arrest announced the crimes of those powerful people who were usually domboyant, the people not sympathized with these people who were raided, but on the contrary, they did not shout good cheers.
You should know that these distinguished officials usually, in their identity, either bully the market, or bully men and women. They have also done a lot of bad things at the feet of the emperor. Even Shuntian Mansion has nothing to do with them. The people usually dare to be angry with them. Yan, now the Dazhong army has come to stand up for them and arrest these bastards that no one dares to move. It's too late for the people to be happy. How can they fight against the Dazhong army?
So for three consecutive days, the Dazhong army launched a large-scale search in the capital. Immediately, nearly ten thousand officials and relatives, their family members and some of their evil servants were arrested and pulled out of the city. In addition to women and children, they chirped and cut off the heads of the ground.
With the beginning of the raid, the data was constantly summarized on Xiao Tianjian's desk. Xiao Tianjian looked at the data and almost smiled. It was not that he loved money, but that he needed the money too much now! On the third day when he entered Beijing, Fu Deming, the minister of the Ministry of Household in Nanjing, sent a letter to send a letter to him, telling Xiao Tianjian that in order to support Xiao Tianjian's Northern Expedition, the unsuptuous household treasury was almost emptied, and told Xiao Tianjian that if it goes on like this, the Ministry of Households of the Dazhong Dynasty will announce it by the end of the year. Bankruptcy.
Therefore, Xiao Tianjian must solve this problem at present, so he can only be cruel to the people of the city fox club rat corpses in this group of Beijing.
In addition, Xiao Tianjian was also cruel about how to deal with these people. Since he has taken away his family property, don't think that these people will be honest in the future. In addition, these people can be said to be extremely guilty. Many of them are extremely angry with the people in the capital, and there is not much left them. There are few benefits, so Xiao Tianjian did not listen to Lu Xiangsheng's advice this time. While ordering the confiscation of these people's property, he immediately decided their fate.
So when the raid began, these people were immediately dragged out of the city one by one, one after another, and cut off their heads together, except for women and children.
As for the following investigation and inventory work in an orderly manner, after the inventory of the people's property of a family, it was quickly summarized in front of Xiao Tianjian's big case.
Although the three-day raid operation was not long, Xiao Tianjian did more than Li Zicheng in history this time. Li Zicheng sent Liu Zongmin to torture and force these people to take money out, but Xiao Tianjian simply changed it to block the house. He didn't even need to force torture, so he copied the property of these guys.
