Chapter 619: Impatient and Uneasy (Part 2)

"Well! In this way, I'm irritable. Let's just talk about this river corruption case for the time being. What are your tricks to deal with this corruption?"

Yang Meng used killing to stop greed in Yunnan, and used his relatives to expose greed to avoid greed. To be honest, the effect is not perfect. Money, gold and silver are jealous! They are all the same, let alone others.

Killing cannot be stopped! But this matter must be done from another aspect, and to use some strength to influence your reputation in Yunnan alone. Xu Ziwei’s plan just now gave Yang Meng a good reminder, starting with benevolence and filial piety, turning corrupt people into animals that everyone hates, and killing yourself will be in line with the will of the people.

In Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Tibet, killing corrupt officials, destroying families and killing corrupt officials, the people hate these corrupt people, but they are sympathetic to their families being slaughtered. This is a big problem for Yang Meng. If this sympathy is not done well, it will be the source of the riot in the future.

Yang Meng wanted to think of a way to turn these corrupt people, including their families, into existences that everyone hates, to kill and destroy the family, and to become a good thing that conforms to the will of the people.

"San Master is considering the destruction of Yunnan, right?"

Xu Ziwei put down the note in his hand and looked at his master with deep eyes. The plate was too big, and he was too willing but not enough. Is it a verbal word from the Third Master?

In Xu Ziwei's view, Yang Meng's control over the four provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Tibet was like using his fingers. It is not a big deal to destroy the family, but this is a hidden danger. As soon as the signs appeared, this person discovered it. How could he feel powerless?

"Well! That's the matter, now it's easy to deal with. When the New Year holiday is peaceful, it will be unpopular if you kill like this."

When doing things in anger, Yang Meng did more than just a river corruption case. Now, he thought about the previous corruption and extermination of the family, and he was a little too impatient.

"This matter can also be handled together in river corruption cases. As long as the third master makes more trouble and makes more greedy, his parents are ashamed to live in the world. Because of his husband, his wives and concubines are very wise. He would rather be a sister in the building to support his children than eat the grain and rice bought by greedy silver. Because of his father, his children cut off the relationship between father and son, and he would be a tragedy.

It would be almost enough to get rid of the stupid things and farces of local people who hate corrupt officials, beat and kill corrupt officials' families, serve their sentences, and be released by righteous officials.

Let the scholars and masters of Minghu write the tragedy, tragedy, stupid things and farce in this river corruption case into popular operas. It is widely sung.

This is what is called deep-seated people’s hearts!”

When Xu Ziwei said this, Yang Meng was convinced. If he had compared his talents and brains, he would be less neat than this living monkey. How could he have developed his brains? Public opinion wars, news wars, and this guy can think of it.

"Haha... You are still smart, so I will leave this matter to you. Let Li Hai show you three thousand shadows, and you will arrange for the navy team to train and search the houses and arrest people in various places.

Corrupt officials were parading in their hometown with high hats for half a month, posting their big-character posters everywhere. The methods might as well be more vicious. If someone obstructed them, they would just be beaten back!

Mr. Wei, who informed Minghu, asked him to choose a group of people who like to play this, and then select a group of actors from all over the country to do this. He will try it first in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Tibet. If the effect is good, it will be pushed to the entire Qing Dynasty!

After you deal with the river corruption case, report the whole story to me, and I will do some other means."

With Xu Ziwei's tip, Yang Meng also had a charter. Let's take a look at the reaction of scholars first. If it is effective, Yang Meng will have more help.

"knew!"

After Xu Ziwei went down, Wei Zhiqing hurriedly walked into the main hall with a stack of documents.

"Master, Zeng Disheng was surrounded by Mr. Shi to death in Nanchang! This is the battle report of Jiangxi!"

He was limited in his heart. Yang Meng was dealing with river engineering recently and paid little attention to military affairs. All he paid attention to was the movement of the Taiping Army. As long as they did not move to the two lakes in the near future, it would not be considered an important military situation. Zeng Disheng was trapped in Nanchang, which is a big deal. Once Zeng Disheng is defeated, Jiangxi will change hands.

Jiangxi, Wutou and Chuwei, Guangdong households and Fujian courtyards, Jiangxi is not very important to the court in terms of finance, taxation and grain sources, and the Imperial Kiln Factory has also gone bankrupt, which seems to be a useless place, but Jiangxi's geographical location is very important to Jiangnan.

It is extremely important to the Taiping Army today. Shi Dakai will not retreat for no reason. Yang Meng's military attack is too sharp, and the other one is probably because he saw the importance of Jiangxi to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Yang Meng was in charge of Jiujiang, and the two lakes were difficult to get. Jiangxi was particularly important to consolidate a solid territory for the Kingdom of Heaven. It was connected to Hubei and Anhui in the north, Guangdong and Guangxi in the south, Fujian and Zhejiang in the east, Hunan in the west, and Jiangnan in the south. If you want to cultivate the Anhui, Jiangsu and other places that occupy most of the Kingdom of Heaven, Jiangxi is indispensable.

Brother Yang San is in charge of Jiujiang, and the army is hard to take the lead, so let’s take the second best and take half of the Jiangnan region. At the same time, he gathered troops in Anhui and Jiangxi. Brother Yang is a few people. This is ultimately a huge weakness. After taking Jiangxi, it is not too late to conquer the two lakes again!

"Damn it! None of the people who led the troops to fight were good people! Mr. Shi was vicious and still wanted to annex the two lakes. It seems that the lesson I learned last time was a little smaller!"

After taking the battle report from Wei Zhiqing, he took a brief look. Yang Meng slapped the battle report on the table. The picture of Mr. Shi in Jiangxi was considered to be Yang Meng's tacit approval, but Mr. Shi's strategy in Jiangxi was aimed at himself.

If we do not surround the Grand Prefecture, we will first take over the surrounding prefectures and counties with weak defenses. One is to open the way to march into Hunan, and the other is to recruit people from these prefectures and counties. In this way, the number of people who were greatly damaged in the last Jiujiang Campaign was also compensated, and the Taiping Army is still a team of many people.

I am afraid that my own river project is also missing. Recently, Mr. Shi’s military front has been at the junction of Hunan and Jiangxi. I’m afraid Mr. Shi has many thoughts in his mind?

"Master, what should Zeng Disheng do? Or not?"

Zeng Disheng was a chess piece of Yang Meng. Wei Zhiqing knew that when Yang Meng didn't talk about this, he urged him.

"Look, let's talk about it. I just read the battle report of Mr. Shi just now, and Zeng Disheng's defeat was inevitable. I am impatient and difficult to accomplish anything. He is the same."

Without reading the battle report, Yang Meng could roughly guess the reason why Zeng Disheng was trapped, which was mostly caused by underestimating the enemy and advancing. Xiang Yong was not bad in tactical terms, but strategically, Zeng Disheng was not the same level as Shi Dakai.

There are some things that Zeng Disheng can’t understand. He doesn’t think about, but only thinks about achievements. It would be strange if this battle can be fought well!

To put it simply, strategy is to compete for favorable terrain. This is how Mr. Shi’s previous practice in Jiangxi was like this. In the battle of Jiujiang, the Taiping Army suffered heavy losses and had few people. I will develop manpower, and those prefectures and counties with weak defense are undoubtedly the best targets for Mr. Shi.

Small-scale battles can be used to train troops. The towns and villages under the prefectures and counties have a large population, and it is now a famine. As long as there is food, it doesn’t matter to the people. The prefectures and counties are very suitable for public use.

After reading Zeng Disheng's battle reports one by one, Yang Meng also discovered Zeng Disheng's growth. From Hengyang to Chenzhou, from Chenzhou to Nankang, Zeng Disheng was cautious and had good results along the way.

The Taiping Army wanted to defeat Xiangyong with a considerable number of people. Shi Dakai used his troops to take advantage of his skills and would not fight against Xiangyong. At this time, if Zeng Disheng did not seek the gains and losses of a city and a land, he would only fight the Taiping Army's vitality, and the results would be further expanded.

Although Xiang Yong was reorganized, his local combat power was still comparable to that of the old soldiers of the Taiping Army. As long as Xiang Yong clenched his fists, Shi Dakai, who was unwilling to fight hard, would be helpless against Xiang Yong. Although the battle situation in Nankang was not good for Zeng Disheng on the surface and the navy was trapped in Neihu, as long as there was a fighter opportunity, Shi Dakai could not stop Zeng Disheng's pace.

The turning point of the matter happened when Mr. Shi besieged Ji'an Mansion. Calculated the time, it was when Yang Meng went to the Gu River to build canals and build commercial documents. Zeng Disheng was afraid that he was stimulated and wanted to make a contribution.

This matter is understandable. Who came out to lead troops in this year? It was not for merit? Moreover, saving Ji'an was not too difficult for Zeng Disheng. As long as he was steady and he was beaten to death, he was afraid that Shi Dakai could only avoid his sharp edge.

But for some reason, Zeng Disheng chose the main force to take over Nanchang and divided the troops into four groups. One was led by Taqibu's deputy Zhou Fengshan, stationed in Zhangshu, one was Luo Zenan, led by Ji'an, and one was Zeng Disheng personally guarded the provincial capital Nanchang. Including the Xiangyong Navy Peng Yulin's troops trapped in Nankangnei Lake, it happened to be the four-way army.

After thinking about it again, wasn’t this the method of Shi Dakai’s defeat in Jiujiang? Zeng Disheng led his troops and the scholar was too angry. Although there is a saying that he would not forget his past affairs, there is also a saying that he would not become a dog when he was drawn.

Nankang, Ji'an, and Nanchang are indeed on the same line. The Taiping Army also has naval troops in Nankang. The Zhoufengshan defenders in Zhangshu and Luoze who rescued Ji'an can also take care of each other. Zeng Disheng, who guards Nanchang, can also shine with the Zhoufengshan defenders.

From Nankang to Nanchang, it is a long snake formation for the water army, and from Nanchang to Ji'an is a long snake formation for the land army. As long as Peng Yulin's navy makes a breakthrough, the long snake formation will be fully connected, with several big snakes and small snakes. Zeng Disheng regards fighting as writing articles. Although this formation looks rich, it is just beautiful and has much less practicality.

Besides, although Zeng Disheng was old when he played with Shi Da, he had a lot of experience in leading troops. He would not appear on Shi Xianggong if he punched him randomly.

Peng Yulin's solution to the problem is probably to use the water mines he mentioned before.

But the rivers in Jiangxi are different from the Yangtze River. The rivers are narrow and shallow, and it is easy to be blocked. The Xiangyong Navy wanted to break through from Nankangnei Lake. Without the cooperation of the Lu Army, it would be a joke.

Moreover, the long snake formation with the corresponding one-character serpent formation must have one premise, that is, the opponent's troops cannot be too many. The troops of Mr. Shi in Jiangxi, including combatants and believers of the worshippers of the God Church, are probably more than 100,000.

It is probably easy to divide troops into four groups and suppress the head and tail of the long snake formation. Once this situation occurs, eliminating the enemy's vitality will become Shi Dakai's patent.

Shi Dakai did this, and the soldiers surrounded Nanchang. The city of Nanchang was crowded with people. It was impossible to tell which soldier was the civilian. Zeng Disheng was panicked and urgently dispatched Luo Zenan, who was rescued by Ji'an, to return to the army. However, Luo Zenan was a little anxious and accidentally got stray bullets on the front line.

Luo Zenan was not injured very well. On his face, Yang Meng couldn't handle such injuries, let alone Xiangyong. The two generals of the Lu Division, Taqibu, died in Jiujiang and Luo Zenan died in Ji'an. Without these two, Zeng Disheng would lose his wings.

Shi Dakai's goal was not Zeng Disheng, but Zhou Fengshan, who was stationed in Zhangshu. He concentrated his superior forces to eliminate the enemy's vitality. Shi Dakai played tricks. The Zhangshu defenders in Zhoufengshan were raped. Zeng Disheng from Nanchang and Peng Yulin from Nankangnei Lake became both ends of the shoulder pole, and they could not take care of each other at the head and tail.

Zeng Disheng and Yang Meng are of great use. He is a model. When the Westernization Affairs was held, Zeng Disheng could eliminate a lot of resistance. It is definitely necessary to save it, but how to save it is worth pondering.

"Did Zeng Disheng have any letters asking for help?"

"Yes, one was given to the court and the other was given to Xiang Rong, the Jiangnan camp."

"Well! I'm so interested in changing! Zeng Disheng can go and save him. Not to mention anything else, this is a good deal to save Zhao. It's a beautiful thing to let Du Jianghu come up."
