The eight top families in the capital were also leaders in the entire Youzhou. Under the order of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, all their families were confiscated and exterminated overnight. The remaining families in the capital were also popular among the people.
Panic, afraid of following in the footsteps of these families.
After a bloody massacre, all the families in the capital have become law-abiding. Although there are many powerful local families, and many families have even joined together, life is still not easy.
The Ming Dynasty sent five generals and nearly three million elite troops at one go. Wherever they passed, the rebels were completely defenseless. The five armies advanced in five directions. The rebellion within the Ming Dynasty
, calming down at a visible speed.
These five generals of the Ming Dynasty are really no ordinary people. Among them, the army led by General Wu Qi moves like the wind, and is invincible. They are completely overwhelming the rebels with their power, forcing the rebels to
He had no intention of fighting. After seeing Wu Qi's army, no matter how many rebels there were, they just wanted to escape.
General Le Yi is different. He just recruits groups to fight. After each battle, most of the rebels have been recruited by General Le Yi. Don't think about pretending to surrender and fool them.
General Le Yi was not generally ruthless in his actions.
Many times, General Le Yi allowed the rebel leaders to connect with each other. Then he would kill all these rebel leaders and completely control their troops. Along the way to suppress the rebellion, General Le Yi's army became more and more powerful.
The more you fight, the stronger you become. You don't even need to use your own troops to attack a camp or build a stronghold.
The most normal one is General Li Mu. He fought steadily all the way and had the style of a famous general. He also took good care of the surrendered rebels and convinced them with his virtue. Many rebel leaders and even the children of aristocratic families were deeply impressed by him.
Impressed.
But don't think that General Li Mu is easy to bully because he has a good temper. He is not an easy person to talk to when he gets angry. Many aristocratic families, seeing that Li Mu seems to be easy to get along with, make some small moves behind his back.
As a result, anyone who had the slightest dissent was slaughtered. The wealthy families behind his back all called him the Smiling Tiger.
The remaining Sun Bin is not easy to get along with. In the eyes of the rebels and the aristocratic family, he is really synonymous with insidiousness. He does one thing openly and behind the scenes. The aristocratic family and the rebels play tricks in circles, and in the end all the benefits are taken away by others.
Let's go. Following Sun Bin's army can be said to be the happiest. Without paying many casualties, you will get the greatest reward.
The most terrifying thing is this Bai Qi general. He is really a bloody-handed butcher who kills without blinking an eye. He relies entirely on iron blood and strength to defeat ten guilds. For the big families, those who do not cooperate will be killed. Those who cooperate will be killed.
, kill. Even the slightest complaint may lead to death.
Wherever Bai Qi's army passed, the noble families trembled. There was nothing much to say about the rebels. Those who surrendered early were better off. Those who refused to surrender could be said to have been killed in rivers of blood. Even if they surrendered late,
Yes, many of the top rebels were also massacred.
The five armies pushed forward all the way, and the five generals brought a bloody storm. Although the rebels were outnumbered, they were just trying to make ends meet, and there was no need to risk their lives. If they surrendered early, they might still be able to survive.
Born, if you don't surrender and hold on, you will die. Therefore, more and more people are surrendering, and the speed of counterinsurgency is getting faster and faster.
Not only the rebels thought this way, but many families also thought so. It was better to die than to live. Coupled with the overwhelming public opinion offensive, most families obediently put their hands and feet away. Only a few were unwilling to do so.
They still banded together and continued to resist desperately.
For those who are still holding on, we must not let them go. As more and more rebels surrender, more and more inside stories are dug out, and many wealthy families who secretly support the rebels will be in trouble.
According to Liu Yu's instructions, those who are not deeply involved can be dealt with lightly. Those who have invested a lot of money must not be let go.
In just one month, the entire Ming Dynasty was in a bloody storm. In just one month, rebellions spread across hundreds of millions of miles of Ming Dynasty. Except for a few places where there were still fluctuations, the rest of the places were full of rebellion.
was pacified.
After a short period of chaos, the Ming Dynasty was basically stable. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Yu reorganized the system of the Ming Dynasty, making it even more harsh for the aristocratic families. The local army and the aristocratic families could not even think of getting involved.
Even their family's private soldiers have been reduced to almost not enough.
At this time, no matter how deep the resentment of the aristocratic families was, they did not dare to express it openly. Facing the new system of the Ming Dynasty, they could only swallow it. Preliminary statistics show that the aristocratic families of the Ming Dynasty were wiped out in this catastrophe.
Nearly 20%.
Twenty percent, nearly one-fifth of the noble families were destroyed. Not only did those noble families dare not make other small moves, but even the few remaining dynasties in the surrounding area who had been thinking of taking the opportunity to weaken the Ming Dynasty also honestly offered supplies and begged for mercy. The Ming Dynasty
The emperor's reputation as a cold-blooded butcher was notorious.
The Ming Dynasty has just calmed down the war, and the people are unstable. When it was originally under the rule of the Yan Dynasty, the country was peaceful and the people were safe. The people's life was not good, but it was not too bad. Once the Ming Dynasty annexed the Yan Dynasty,
The country was suddenly in chaos. The people who originally lived in harmony experienced the pain of war.
The common people don't care about your reasons. They only know that a major rebellion broke out just after the Ming Dynasty annexed the Yan Dynasty. This is obviously a problem with the Ming Dynasty. If this continues, how can ordinary people survive?
The unstable public sentiment in the Ming Dynasty was extremely detrimental to the rule and development of the Ming Dynasty. If you want to appease the people, you will have to work hard for a long time to make the people truly healthy. Just talking about it will not solve any problems.
.
But at the moment, there is another good way to stabilize people's hearts. That is to marry the princess of the former dynasty to stabilize the people's hearts. So after the rebellion was suppressed, the army returned one after another. In the court, the ministers made memorials one after another to marry the former dynasty's princess.
Go to the princess to appease the people.
Then the Ming Dynasty announced that Emperor Liu Yu of the Ming Dynasty would marry Luo Ningshuang, the ninth princess of the former Yan Dynasty, in one month. As soon as the news came out, both the aristocratic families and the people were excited.
For the aristocratic family, they have long been frightened by the iron-blooded methods of the Ming Dynasty and dare not think of anything else. Now that the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is getting married, the message revealed is that the massacre against the aristocratic family has ended.
This can't help but make all the aristocratic families breathe a sigh of relief. However, the Ming Dynasty emperor's wedding is a good opportunity to show loyalty. By the way, you can also take the opportunity to curry favor with the new rich. If you find the right way, you can even stabilize your position and annex
The properties left behind by those unlucky families.
The emperor of the new dynasty married the princess of the previous dynasty. For the people, this was a big deal. Ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty were not very clear about it, but they were very affectionate towards the Yan Dynasty. In this way, the people's hearts were stable.
Much more.
The war had just been calmed down, and the entire country was undergoing major construction. The things the Ming Dynasty copied from aristocratic families were enough to prevent the Ming Dynasty from having to collect taxes for more than ten years. In order to stabilize people's hearts, Liu Yu simply ordered a tax exemption for three years.
The entire Ming Dynasty was suddenly in jubilation. I don’t know whether it was because of Liu Yu’s wedding or because taxes were reduced or exempted. The haze caused by the previous war also disappeared little by little. As the wedding day approached, the Ming Dynasty in Kyoto
At that time, everything was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and it was a joyful atmosphere. Business in all walks of life in the capital also picked up.
When the wedding day was approaching, some uninvited guests were welcomed into the capital of the Ming Dynasty. A gorgeously decorated yet simple carriage, protected by more than a dozen people, slowly drove in. The person driving in front of the car was not
The horse is a ferocious beast that always looks ferocious, giving people a feeling of heart palpitations.
At first glance, he was a child of aristocratic families. There were not even a hundred but eighty people like this in the Ming Dynasty these days. Therefore, no one paid much attention to this. At most, they just took a second look. They left the carriage alone.
, slowly sailing towards the imperial capital.
The curtain of the carriage was gently lifted, revealing a handsome but somewhat pale face. Looking at the huge city gate close at hand, a sinister look appeared on the somewhat handsome face. It immediately destroyed the entire handsome face.
, which gives people a feeling of lewdness.
"If the Ming Dynasty dares to steal my Xiao Mingqi's woman, don't blame me for being ruthless" (To be continued...)
