Due to the short preparation time of the first issue of "Zhejiang Dibao", it was not released at the same time as the six governments. Jinhua Fucheng is definitely the fastest, and it is spread to other prefectures and counties at the same time. However, from the feedback of sales, the first issue of the first issue was sold out almost instantly in various places, so it was not allowed to continue printing to meet the needs of various places.

There are even rumors that there are already some private bookstores selling pirated prints on the market, which are incomplete and have many errors and omissions, but they meet the needs of some people who cannot buy genuine newspapers. However, pirated newspapers are not the same as pirated ordinary books. Such publications have the function of conveying and interpreting government orders. Mistakes will cause ambiguity, and people who will have misunderstandings will suffer losses. Therefore, Zhou Jingting has greeted the yamen of the Criminal Department, and the attack on these illegal booksellers will begin.

In addition, Zhou Jingting, as the head of the Mission Department, has already handed over the full power of the editor-in-chief Lu Liuliang. There are also two veteran aides from the Anyuan Marquis’ Mansion as deputy editor-in-chief’s assistants, and there will be no problems.

The first task of the Propaganda Department is to promote. As the mouthpiece institution of Anyuan Hou Mansion, "Zhejiang Dibao" is just the first step, targeting scholars and civilians with a literacy basis. It is actually far better to express the information and consciousness they want to convey through stories and receive them through feelings, so the art troupe came into being.

"The leader of the art troupe enjoys the rank and treatment of the Tongzhi of the Prefecture. The Marquis also said that even if he is a military general and is in power, it is not convenient for him to appoint civil servants, so the Sun and the others will work as governors as governors. Last victory, the Marquis sent an envoy to Guizhou to report the victory also brought memorials to request the promotion of civil servants. Today, he is a Tongzhi, and there will always be a rank of senatorial rank. Isn't it easier to be promoted than to go to Pujiang County to slowly become a magistrate?"

Speaking of this, Zhou Jingting also felt that such a purely profit-oriented statement was a bit too utilitarian, so he changed the subject. "If it were others, I would not have tried my best to persuade you. Your talent and knowledge are well known in our Jinhua and even in Zhejiang. You are promoted earlier and you will also seek welfare for more people earlier. Wouldn't it be more effective than in Pujiang County?"

However, Zhou Jingting said he was dry, but Li Yu was not moved at all. Instead, he pushed Zhou Jingting's kindness back with the statement that he had already told Chen Wen that he did not want to be a writer and was willing to do something practical for the people in the local area.

The two were familiar with each other. Zhou Jingting had a certain understanding of Li Yu's talent. He also knew that he once sold taxes to make a living when he was in Hangzhou. For professional considerations, he also found a shortcut for his friends to get a faster promotion, so he sent an invitation. But who knew that Li Yu was thinking about doing things in the local area. For a moment, he couldn't figure out whether Li Yu really liked to be a people-friendly official or was disgusted with the position of "Liyuan Manager".

In fact, it was not only Zhou Jingting, but even Chen Wen would probably be puzzled after hearing this. Just think about it carefully, Li Yu, in history, started selling taxes to make a living after the "Jinhua Massacre", and before that, he devoted himself to the imperial examination. So much so that after the last provincial examination in Chongzhen in the fifteenth year, he quickly faced the background of the country's destruction and family destruction. Li Yu cried bitterly when he was visiting his mother's cemetery: "How can he be ashamed of having a marriage in three migrations? If you have no honor in your life, you will not be talented. People's tears and peach blossoms are all blood, and paper money and worries will turn into ashes."

From this we can see that in Li Yu's heart, the imperial examination is the most important thing, but in the face of defense between the barbarians and the Xia, he was unwilling to go to the Qing Dynasty, so he simply took this as his career and sent a life of life. Now, after being recruited by Chen Wen and working in the government in Zhejiang, he naturally felt guilty for his life by selling taxes and letting down his mother's upbringing. With this, Zhou Jingting was wasted his lips and tongue.

Li Yu was suggested to Zhou Jingting by Chen Wen before, but when he remembered Li Yu's original words before entering the civil service training class, he also told Zhou Jingting not to force himself and obey his personal wishes. In fact, he had expected the situation today, and even had second-hand preparations. For example, "Southern Hongbei Kong" in the early Qing Dynasty were also extremely excellent playwrights. If it didn't work, he would send someone to search for it. Unfortunately, Chen Wen didn't know at all. Hong Sheng and Kong Shangren, one of whom is only eight years old, and the other is even five years old. I think that if he can recognize all the words in "Zhejiang Dibao", he is considered a child prodigy, but the others are still thinking too much.

After seeing Li Yu off, Zhou Jingting didn't care that the tea in the cup had already cooled down and poured it in in one breath. This old friend who didn't get into the oil and salt really made him feel a headache, but the leader of the art troupe had to find a talented person with competence with his understanding. Even in his opinion, he was not afraid that the leader would have some unclear scandals with the female members. A talented man and beautiful woman are the current normal phenomenon, but he was afraid that the leader would not know anything about drama creation and eventually ruin Chen Wen's affairs.

Sitting in the chair and pondered for a long time, he really felt that as the head of the department, he was not as relaxed as Chen Wen as an aide. At least at that time, there was something that Chen Wen ordered to do, and he didn't need to pay too much attention to himself or to worry too much about personnel and other aspects.

After a long time, looking at the Zhejiang Di News on the table, Zhou Jingting suddenly remembered someone, maybe that person was competent.

"Go and check, where is the Mr. Chen who came to Jinhua with Editor-in-Chief Lu?"

Hearing this, Zhou Jingting's aide did not go out. Instead, he bowed to him and replied: "When I went to handle the final transfer procedures for Director Lu yesterday, I saw the records of Li Magistrate Li and Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen had previously worked as a county lieutenant in Longyou County, and recently waited for the promotion order in the inn. I heard that it is said that he might be transferred to Chuzhou or Wenzhou to be promoted to magistrate, and the prefect Sun has not yet decided."

"You are determined and do a good job." Before the staff member could thank him, Zhou Jingting hurriedly asked, "What's the official voice?"

"I heard it's good. When the Tartars encircled and suppressed, they were also very capable in organizing civilians in Tangxi, but they had a bad temper."

"Oh, send someone to find him."

"I'll do it now."

When the staff got out of the office, Zhou Jingting then handled the company's official business. The newly built department had to start from scratch. The "Zhejiang Dibao" was easier, and the foundation had been prepared, so they could handle the rest by themselves. However, although the task of the art troupe was not too tight, his brother-in-law also asked to start work before the twelfth lunar month. Now, the leader has not even chosen it, so he has to participate in many things himself.

"Whether to draw some people from the Jiaofangsi come here, it is a question of how to control the female members who have been confiscated at that time."

……………………

After Zhang Yida was executed, the military judges and military supervisors in his battalion rushed back to Yushan County. This time, this was a business trip. The camp still had a lot of work to deal with, so naturally they had to go back quickly. Moreover, from the perspective of the soldiers, it can be said that it is a revenge, but from the perspective of the entire group, it is a serious violation of military law and the adverse effects it caused must be eliminated as soon as possible. Chen Wen, the civilian side, has already begun to solve the problem, and the army has to rely on these military supervisors and military judges.

"The old-style soldiers of the Emperor Ming camp were bound by military laws, and the soldiers were governed by family law. Military laws were implemented by soldiers, but not by family law, and personal soldiers, nor by officers, let alone generals. Military laws could not be treated equally, and all the rewards were obtained from generals, which was unfair. Therefore, on the battlefield, the brave advance alone, and the coward retreated alone. Even if ten thousand people were unable to compete with the captive army, how could they say there was no cause?"

"Our new army of the King's Army of Zhejiang started in Dalan. He trained troops with the commander Qi to form a method, and even took it as his responsibility to reappear the commander Qi's army. The military law is strict, the military orders are consistent, and the rewards are fair and unmatched. Therefore, the sound of war drums starts, and the artillery fire is on the front and must advance; the sound of gold sounds, even though there are treasures behind, it is not stopped."

The temporary garrison of Yushan County is Shentang Camp. The number of this battalion is obtained from the Battle of Shentangyuan. This is a very clear thing for every officer and soldier who entered the battalion. Even if he didn't know it when he first came, there were military supervisors in the army telling them about the performance of this battalion in every battle. There were those officers and soldiers who made great contributions, and even the military achievements made by the veterans of their team were well-known in order to enable them to form a sense of honor as soon as possible.

The Shentang Camp initially only divided into four infantry bureaus that were temporarily organized by the garrisons of Jinhua counties before the war. In the battle of Shentang Camp, two right wing bureaus cooperated with the half of the Dongyang Camp to defeat the enemy, while the other two bureaus worked together with a small number of troops from the Yiwu Camp to fight against the army of the Superbiao camp that changed the Yuanyang formation.

The offense and defense in the field, and the rapid assault in the battle between Jinhua and the other two battalions, this battalion, which was originally just a field supplementary force, jumped to become the ace camp of the Ming army in Zhejiang. The award of this honor is as mentioned by the military supervisor just now in the announcement of Chen Wen's announcement on the military slogan platform - the rewards and punishments are clear, there is no selfishness, and the military orders are like mountains, so naturally they can endure a greater casualty ratio on the battlefield.

"The captain of the firearms team of the 6th Infantry Team of the First Bureau of the Camp accompanied the captain of Rong Zhang Yida. In the sixth year of Yongli, he was a archer in Dongyang County. He revenges his private revenge and was sentenced to death in accordance with military law. Now he informed the entire army, so that you all know that the military law is strict and cannot be violated at all."

Unlike other battalions, Zhang Yida is a veteran and subordinate officer who has served in the camp since he got the number. Many soldiers in the battalion know that there is such a person, especially Zhang Yida, who is on the same whistle, and the robes of the same team are very familiar, and some of them even attended weddings after the New Year.

Zhang Yida died of military law and had already spread in the army. By this official announcement, the original whispers had begun to turn into low-key discussions. However, the prestige of the judges and soldiers in the army had already formed. The officers and soldiers in the discussions stopped when they heard the scolding sound. No one wanted to be arrested by the judge in public at this time and whipped the twenty whips as a typical example.

The notice was over, the entire battalion was disbanded, and the battalion officer An Youfu returned to the big tent to serve in the camp. The staff officer continued to supervise other staff to make sand tables in Yushan County. The military judge led the team to patrol the camp, while the military officer took a sip of water and began to assist the officers in answering the notice one by one. By the way, the infantry team that Zhang Yida was in during his lifetime was the first one to go.

"If the king's army covers up Zhang Yida, then other soldiers who have such experiences will inevitably wait for an opportunity to seek revenge, and the killed will also vent their grudges. At that time, if they kill each other, the garrison will be killed together with those unscrupulous gentry. If the battalion and garrison will not be able to defeat them, then the military, martyrs and disabled robes will inevitably become the targets of revenge. Moreover, the six prefectures of Jinquyan, which our army now occupy, are Tartars on the south, north and west sides. Whenever the Hong Ni army invades, will we fight against foreign enemies or eliminate internal troubles?"

"Judge Huang, those Tartars can't beat us!"

"Yes, we are not afraid of Tartars."

“…”

Innocent!

Shaking his head, the military supervisor couldn't help but laugh. These soldiers thought about the battle formation too simply. "Haha, can't defeat it? Under normal circumstances, our army does have many victory over the Green Camp, but if the internal troubles are still there, I will only ask you, can you still focus on killing the Tartars when the formation is on?"

"this……"

"I am full of my own parents, the safety of my wife and children. I wonder if they were slaughtered by those enemies and gentry in my hometown. I am full of my heart and I am quick to go back and seek revenge from my enemies, so as not to be escaped by them or killed by others first. There are only those private matters left in my heart, and I cannot go hand in hand with my comrades. Whether it is the Mandarin Duck Formation or the Long Spear Formation, no matter how good the formation is, there is no such thing as a whole army's orders and bans, but they are just like a decorative thing!"

After saying this, everyone immediately fell into deep thought. The military has always been repeatedly dictated about discipline, and military laws and regulations are basically used to declare discipline. Even during training, those who are afraid of going forward or who hears the money will often be severely punished. As the notice said, strict military discipline is the foundation for the invincibility of this Ming army in Zhejiang on the battlefield, but the result is achieved by clear rewards and punishments.

"But Captain Zhang is a good person, Huang Jianjun, he saved my life on the battlefield."

"Yes, Captain Zhang also saved my life."

"And I."

Other military officers would not notice it, but he had seen the man in front of him in the injury center. At that time, Zhang Yida carried him off the battlefield. It is said that this man was also injured at that time. Zhang Yida rushed forward and forced the Qing army in front of him to switch him to the back. If the person who could not accept this matter the most would not think of him as a second person except him.

"No one said that Captain Zhang is not a good person, it's just that he violated military law and harmed the interests of our Zhejiang King's Division, so he must accept corresponding punishment."

"But, but, can't this benevolent?"

"No, military law is military law."

"That military law is too cruel."

After saying this, the captain next to him quickly pulled him, and the soldier immediately realized his mistake. The military law was formulated by Chen Wen, but almost no one in the army felt that Chen Wen was cruel, because compared with the generals of his time, Chen Wen had never abused his soldiers, and his military merits made them live a good life. Even if they were injured during the war, they would personally visit the camp. The word " cruelty" could not be tied to their commander, at least in their opinion.

"I am humble and wronged, so I would like to forgive my crimes."

"It's okay, I'm an officer in charge. You can tell me any ideas you have." A smile slightly, relieved everyone's uneasiness, and saw that Huang Zhengjun changed his tone. "It's not true that military law is cruel, but military law is the most humane."

"Ah?" None of the officers present had never received military sticks or whips, and their fear of military laws and regulations was deeply rooted. When they heard the officer named Huang say this, they were stunned.

"In the prison, I also told Zhang Gutou. In this world, there are many people in the military who were bullied by gentry before joining the army. If they want to bully you, they will not tell you any reason. Even if you have reason, it is useless. They can collude with officials from above and keep sly and cunning from below, but you are just one person and only have to be bullied."

This is a fact. Almost all the soldiers present showed pain, obviously recalling the past. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, soldiers were untouchables, and even more so in military households. None of them were the staff officers, military supervisors and military judges. Those scholars who took the expulsion of the Tartars as their mission, had no one who joined the army was promoted to fight the people, and it was normal for them to be bullied.

"But think about it, in the army, as long as you obey military laws and regulations, who will bully you, who will bully you, who will dare to bully you. Any officer who dares to bully his soldiers will definitely be punished. Your battalion officer, military judge or I can all uphold justice for you, and even the Marquis will never let these guys go. Therefore, military laws are equal, she seems to be cruel to everyone, but she is extremely humane to our collective."

To put it this way, it is somewhat unreasonable to say that it is a bit unreasonable, but the fair rewards and punishments within the Ming army in Zhejiang are so true that most of the officers and soldiers present can still accept this set of rhetoric. Who made them in such an environment on weekdays?

"If you still remember the benefits of Captain Zhang and take time to take care of his wife and posthumous son, don't let their orphans and widows be bullied."

After leaving the team where Zhang Yida was in his lifetime, the officer walked back. His words made him dry. If he didn't go back to drink some water, he would probably have a hoarse voice tomorrow if he continued like this.

Regarding Zhang Yida's murder case, in fact, in his opinion, Zhang Yida could not only take revenge but also not die. At that time, Zhang Yida killed the enemy, as long as he drew a thread on his arm or body, and when he saw blood, a stubborn resistance was enough to push all the suspicions clean. Who made the Cao Conglong Rebellion just suppressed at that time, and the entire Jinhua Prefecture yamen and garrison were in chaos, and who had the time to waste time for a dying rebellion?

Thinking of this, the officer in charge was stunned at first, and then he shouted "Phoo, phoo" twice. He warned himself in his heart that he would arrive at another team later, so don't tell the truth.

……………………

The Zhang Yida case had a very bad impact, especially when it was exposed by those interested people at this moment, which caused even more shocking pressure on Chen Wen.

Military law must be maintained and morale must be maintained. This seems to be an inevitable confrontation, but in Chen Wen's opinion, it is not impossible to take into account. To maintain military law, Zhang Yida must die. To maintain military morale, on the one hand, he has military supervisors, and on the other hand, his own prestige is sufficient. Of course, the most important thing is that he can also use those gentry who participated in the imperial examinations of the Qing Dynasty to suppress the entire gentry class, and at the same time alleviate the contradiction between military law and morale, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

In fact, Chen Wen had the idea of ​​uprooting this class for those gentry. Even if he couldn't, he could still kill a mountain of corpses and blood to force them to obey.

This idea is very tempting, but if you think about it carefully, it is impossible to do it!

Historically, the Qing Dynasty used the three major cases and literary inquisitions in the early Qing Dynasty to vigorously attack the gentry who crossed the south of the Yangtze River, but if you think about the time of those cases carefully, everything will be clear.

The "Tonghai Case" occurred in the 18th year of Shunzhi. The "Crying Temple Case" and the "Jiangnan Jue Case" were also in the 18th year of Shunzhi. The "Zhuang Family Ming History Case" that was well-known to the world in later generations for a martial arts novel also occurred in the 18th year of Shunzhi to the 2nd year of Kangxi.

The background at that time was that Zheng Chenggong was defeated in the Battle of Nanjing in the 16th year of Shunzhi. Although he quickly won a great victory in Xiamen, he was no longer able to make another northern expedition, so he had to turn to Taiwan to fight east, with the intention of using the Kinmen and Xiamen-Penghu-Taiwan line to collect all the tolls in the Taiwan Strait, and at the same time, he carried out military farming in Taiwan to speed up the restoration of strength. On the side of the Ming army in the southwest, Emperor Yongli hunted the Myanmar vassal state in the south, while Li Dingguo was squeezed out by Wu Sangui. The Western Army, which once had hundreds of thousands of troops, was wiped out.

In other words, the anti-Qing movement at that time was basically suppressed, especially two years after the lack of military threat in Jiangnan, the Qing Dynasty dared to take ruthless measures against the Southeast gentry. Before this, didn’t they want to do this? No, they really wanted to do too much of the Southeast gentry’s arrogance. Just evading taxes made the Qing Dynasty unbearable. But even the Qing Dynasty knew that military threats should not be too forced when they were still alive, otherwise the overall situation might be corrupt and they might not even have the chance to go back to their hometown.

Now, Chen Wen occupied the six prefectures in Jinquyan, Zhejiang, Taiwen, and Wenzhou, as well as Xiangshan County in Ningbo Prefecture and Yushan County in Guangxin Prefecture, Jiangxi Province. The territory is so large, but there are not many Qing troops around.

There are Hong Chengchou, Zhang Yong, Li Benshen, Hu Maozhen in Jiangxi, and Geng's family in Jingnan and a large number of Fujian Green Camps in Fujian. Hangzhou is the best warrior of the Qing Dynasty, Oboi. Zhang Jiadasu, the only unbeaten general of the Eight Banners Army, who has remained undefeated on the southwest battlefield. There is also Liang Huafeng who brought Zheng Chenggong back to the past liberation overnight in Suzhou, and there is no less force in any direction than him.

In this situation, if internal and external troubles break out at the same time, it is hard to say whether it survives or not. Even if you can survive, the accumulation in the past few years will be over. It is far less safe than boiling frogs in warm water and splitting and disintegrating the Southeast gentry bit by bit like peeling onions.

Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh food. Today, when walking on thin ice, when dealing with such vested interest groups, you must be cautious and take care of everything. Especially for vested interest groups such as Southeastern gentry, which are not very united under normal circumstances, fighting one faction, pulling one faction, and using the gentry forces that have been hit to feed military aristocratic groups that are still in the embryonic state is the safest way.
