He picked up his pen and wrote.

For these Zichuan gentry who raised money and grain to support their salaries, an archway was built to commend them, and they were given the qualification to send their sons to study in the Imperial College.

An archway and the qualification to supervise students may seem inconspicuous, but Zhu Yihai knows very well that in fact these things are still very important.

After all, he was just facing a country squire from a county town.

In addition, according to the example of donating officials, those who reach the corresponding donation amount can also be awarded the corresponding San rank. For example, if you donate 500 taels, you can be awarded a ninth-grade San rank. If you donate 5,000 taels, you can be awarded a seventh-grade San rank.

, if anyone donates 50,000 taels, then he should be given a fifth-grade official and be rewarded with silver feathers.

Zhu Yihai did not blame Gu Xianshou and other Zichuan local officials for their actions. No matter what, the result was still very good. He recovered ten years of unpaid debts, paid off so much money and food, and even paid off the mines in Zichuan.

Fields, workshops, and shops were all registered and standardized at once, which facilitated future tax collection and other matters.

They still deserve credit, so they should be commended and recorded in the assessment.

He got up, came to the map on the side, and looked at the map of Shandong.

Zhu Yihai pondered.

The Ming army has launched an offensive in Shandong. For more than a year, the Ming army has been making small fuss in Shandong, focusing on containment and harassment, which made the Tatars in Xuzhou and Jinan extremely uncomfortable.

He wanted to fight a decisive battle, but the Ming army did not give him a chance. He gathered troops and horses, harassed his supply line, and even threatened his rear.

He retreated to defend the city, so he cleaned up his surroundings.

The Qing army also launched several attacks and even carried out raids, but now the Ming army is in Shandong, with forts everywhere and fortified cities everywhere, especially in the countryside. The roads and intelligence lines are smooth, and the news is timely. As soon as they are dispatched, the news spreads

Out.

Every time they came up short.

I couldn't help but want to attack a few castles and strongholds, but in the end I found that the Ming troops stationed there were too powerful, and the Ming troops on all sides moved quickly. If there were police on one side, the other places would surround them.

You will be surrounded at any time.

Anyway, they have been fighting like this for more than a year. The Tatars have become more and more difficult, unable to get more supplies and reinforcements, trapped in the city of Chou, and even completely lost control of the countryside.

On the contrary, the Ming army was like a fish in water.

Now that the time is right, Zhu Yihai prepares for a full-scale counterattack, dispatching several forces at the same time and advancing all the way.

In the end, it is necessary to capture one of the two important towns of Xuzhou or Jinan. The Tatars will either have to hold on to each, but in the end they will not have enough troops and will be defeated. Or they will abandon one and defend the other, and the Ming army can easily occupy an important town.

If they dared to defend both ends and tried to divide their forces, the Ming army could besiege the city for reinforcements, or even take the opportunity to capture another city.

At this stage, Zhu Yihai is confident that he has the ability to tackle difficult problems.

Before, he didn't dare to attack the big town or face a decisive battle, but now he is no longer afraid.

Shence's army left Qingzhou and advanced in two directions.

Zhongsu and other people from several towns also launched an attack together and swept all the way.

Zichuan Town was only a small part of this major counterattack. It almost fell without a fight. The response of the Zichuan gentry and people was very good.

In the current autumn harvest season, soldiers and horses can even resupply on the spot along the way, which also greatly reduces the burden of food and grass supply.

Xie Qian is a ruthless character.

His White Robe Club, together with Ding Keze, was reorganized into the Zichuan regiment training camp and was given the camp name White Horse. It was also a rare riding camp.

In essence, there is no difference between Xie Qian and the Yuyuan Army. These people are not exactly peasant armies, nor are they necessarily rebels.

In times of war and turmoil, everything is based on survival. What's more, Xie Qian is from the White Lotus Sect. In the past, when he attacked local tyrants to steal money and food, not every local tycoon and landowner he killed was a traitor like Sun Zhixian.

Of course, in this era, many things cannot be studied deeply, nor should they be studied deeply.

Since Xie Qian chose to surrender to the imperial court and accept reorganization, Zhu Yihai would forget about the past.

From now on, he will eat the food of the imperial court and serve the imperial government. It doesn't matter where Xie Qian is from or what he has done, as long as he does a good job in the future.

Just like Shunying and Xiying.

It is said that after Zhang Xianzhong died, among his four adopted sons, Zhu Yihai was granted the title of Hou Bo and the title of General.

He has always emphasized that as long as he surrenders to the imperial court, fights against the Tartars together, and revives the Ming Dynasty together, the rest can be forgotten.

"Give the Zichuan regiment training guerrilla Xie Qian a golden mace and two royal horses, and the garrison Ding Keze a golden whip and a royal horse."
