Chapter 366 List of the First List of Pseudo Tang Thieves
As a new army of the Tang Dynasty that had already conquered Xingquan Fucheng, Zhengtai County, and Lianhe County, it already had rich experience in occupying the newly conquered cities.
After entering the city, the first thing to do is to clean up the entire city. This cleanup will not only target the defeated Ming army, but also target the green-skinned hooligans who took advantage of the chaos to burn, kill and loot, in order to restore public order and basic people's livelihood in the city.
At the same time, a notice from the Tang Dynasty was posted to let the people know that the city of Liping Prefecture has changed its owner. As long as you obediently obey the rule and pay taxes, your life and property safety can be guaranteed.
At the same time, the purge of stragglers and gangsters in the city was also to warn the gentry and wealthy people in the city not to cause trouble or resist, otherwise the swords and guns of the Tang Dynasty would not be polite.
Under the vigorous and resolute crackdown by the troops entering the city, it only took less than two hours for the entire Liping Mansion to regain peace.
From the siege in the morning to the general restoration of calm in the afternoon, the whole process lasted less than four hours.
It can be seen from this that the new army of the Tang Dynasty is very efficient!
After the military took complete control of the city, on the one hand, it continued to send soldiers to patrol the streets to intimidate those with evil intentions. On the other hand, it waited for the officials sent by the cabinet to arrive and cooperated with them to establish effective administrative rule in the city.
As early as when the two infantry regiments set out for Liping Mansion, the cabinet had already sent a considerable number of officials to accompany the army.
In addition to the personnel of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Taxation, which are used to collect taxes and recruit soldiers, the Ministry of Personnel and other departments have sent relevant officials to establish an effective system in the newly occupied areas as soon as possible.
rule and provide strong support to the frontline army.
The officials from the cabinet entered the city slightly later than Hao Bainian and others. It was not until the next day that Sun Yawei, the prefect of Liping Prefecture appointed by the Tang Dynasty, arrived in Liping Prefecture with his subordinate officials.
When Sun Yawei arrived at Liping Fucheng, he looked at the huge Liping Fucheng and couldn't help but smile. This is where he will show his ambitions in the future!
Who can compare to him, a person who has failed the county examination more than ten times from childhood to college, can become the prefect of a prefecture and the grand master who controls hundreds of thousands of people.
Who could have thought?
The classmates who studied with him in the past often laughed at him for not overestimating his abilities. He had not passed the county examination even though he was over 40 years old. However, he still did not give up on taking the imperial examination and thought about becoming an official every day.
Those classmates, those who served as Zhengtai County magistrates for many times, including Su Jiakang and others, who had not allowed him to pass the county examination, would they imagine that one day they would become the head of the government?
They probably can’t even think of it if they think about it!
Haha~
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but want to laugh wildly!
Like many early scholars who joined the Tang Dynasty, Sun Yawei was also a scumbag. He took part in the imperial examination when he was a teenager and failed to pass the county examination until he was in his forties.
After the rise of the Tang Dynasty last year and the occupation of the vast countryside of Zhengtai County in the first half of this year, he, like some scholars who failed in the imperial examinations, were depressed, and did not have many family concerns, gritted their teeth and devoted themselves to the Tang Dynasty.
.
This time, he was awarded the title of sixth-rank official and served in the Ministry of Household Affairs. Then he worked hard and performed well, and last month he was promoted to the rank of fifth-rank doctor in the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Half a month ago, when the new army of the Tang Dynasty was preparing to march into Liping Prefecture, he and other cabinet officials came into the inspection field of the big bosses, preparing to select one of them to serve as the prefect of Liping Prefecture.
Finally, during the interview, His Majesty Li Xuan asked him how he would govern if he became the governor of Liping Prefecture. In his answer, Sun Yawei did not say anything like others about how to cultivate one's health, encourage farmers, and how to make the people live a prosperous life.
Something like that.
Rather, after he takes charge of Liping Mansion, he will try his best to tap all the resources of Liping Mansion to provide all necessary logistical support for the country's military expansion campaign, including but not limited to the use of forced methods to collect grain, grass, silver, and recruit soldiers.
Folks mined iron ore and other minerals everywhere.
The purpose of these words is that if he is allowed to take charge of Liping Mansion, then the entire Liping Mansion will become the rear of the army and provide all necessary supplies.
This answer made Li Xuan quite satisfied!
The answers given by the other candidates were all too lofty, and they talked about implementing benevolent and virtuous governance, which made Li Xuan quite disgusted.
You must know that the Tang Dynasty is in rebellion and wants to go to war with the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, the military pressure in the future will be extremely high. The most important or even the only responsibility of local officials is not to improve education and make people live better.
Support military operations and ensure military logistics.
So Li Xuan finally chose Sun Yawei as the prefect of Liping Prefecture.
After Sun Yawei was promoted to the prefect of Liping Prefecture, he could be regarded as one of the senior officials in the Tang Dynasty. Although his rank was only the fourth rank, there were not many people in the Tang Dynasty who could surpass him in rank.
Moreover, considering that the current ruling area of the Tang Dynasty only has two prefectures, and Xingquan Prefecture is the seat of imperial power, in order to strengthen the rule of Xingquan Prefecture, the cabinet has not yet established a prefect of Xingquan Prefecture, but is temporarily under the direct jurisdiction of the cabinet.
.
This means that the current prefect in the Tang Dynasty is actually Sun Yawei.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Sun Yawei today is the first frontier official in the Tang Dynasty. Although his power is not as great as that of the prefect of the Ming Dynasty, he has no military power or financial power, but he still has the power of the civil government.
After entering the city, Sun Yawei first conducted a handover with Hao Bainian and the others. Hao Bainian and the others had a heavy task, but they did not have much time to waste on trivial matters in Liping City. Therefore, after the handover was completed, Hao Bainian, Li Chunjing and the others ignored many trivial matters in the city.
The army began to rest and recuperate, and then prepared for the next large-scale military operation. At the same time, small-scale troops were dispatched to clear out resistance in other parts of Liping Prefecture.
After Sun Yawei officially took office, on the first day he moved into the Liping Prefecture magistrate's office, he couldn't wait to start his career as a feudal official. First, he discussed with the officials from the Ministry of Personnel sent by the cabinet for half an hour, and hurriedly determined the people under Liping Prefecture.
It is necessary to establish administrative agencies in three counties, and at the same time, towns and villages must be established below these three counties. The Tang Dynasty has already determined that the lower grassroots level must have a guiding phalanx of administrative agencies at the county, town, and village levels.
.
At the same time, we must cooperate with the patrol department and the tax department to establish security forces and tax collection agencies respectively.
These three things are his most urgent tasks at present. Only by establishing a complete three-level administrative organization can we truly extend the tentacles of the Tang Dynasty into every corner of Liping Prefecture and establish counties under the Patrol Department.
Only the patrol bureau, the sheriffs of each town, and the anti-robbery officers of each village can maintain their rule after the large-scale military troops withdraw.
Taxation is naturally more important. With taxation agencies, more taxes can be collected legally and reasonably to maintain the military's operations. After all, we can't always rely on the people of the tax inspection team to collect taxes in a messy way. We must have something.
A legal and reasonable way.
On the second day after Sun Yawei took office, several large tables were set up at the door of the prefect's Yamen, and several signboards were erected. Under the signboards were official documents. One of the official documents said: Nowadays, the Tang Dynasty is looking for talents.
We are thirsty and urgently need the services of talents from all walks of life. The prefecture yamen and county yamen need heads of various departments and department members. As long as they pass the assessment, they will be awarded officials on the spot.
The assessment requirements are also quite low. As long as you can read and write, you can be a section member or even a section chief. If your ability is more outstanding, the county magistrate, Tongzhi, etc. can also be awarded on the spot.
In a word, as long as scholars dare to come, Datang will give you an official position!
It's a pity that there are very few applicants, only five or six people apply in one day, and they are all scumbags and helpless types.
However, the Tang Dynasty accepted everything as ordered. This was not because they were buying horse bones for thousands of dollars, but because they were really short of people. As long as they could read and write, no matter who you were, the Tang Dynasty would dare to use you.
If you show a little bit of loyalty to the Tang Dynasty and aversion to the Tang Dynasty, then you will be reused.
As for whether you are afraid of their betrayal, there is no need to worry about this!
If they want to betray the Tang Dynasty, it depends on whether the Ming army agrees or not!
Nowadays, some people in the Tang Dynasty who are relatively well-known to the outside world have already registered with the Ming army. It is said that the governor Zhu Zhihai already has a "List of Chief Thieves of the Pseudo-Tang Dynasty", ranking at the top
The leader is naturally Li Xuan, the pseudo-emperor, followed by Liu Bagou, Wang Wenhua, Qian Mengjiu, the three pseudo-majors, and then Yang Xiucai, Ma Wei and other pseudo-tang ministers and ministers.
Fang Dongquan, Huang Xueren, Hao Bainian and other pseudo-Tang traitor generals in the military are all on the list, and they are quite high. It is said that the list in Zhu Zhihai's hand contains more than a hundred people.
If a person with a name is caught, he or she will be Lingchi at the least. If the Tang Dynasty falls, the family behind each person will inevitably go through a series of confiscation and genocide, and several major leaders, such as Li
Xuan, Liu Bagou and the others will probably be executed by the Nine Tribes.
Even Zeng Ziwen was on the list. He was called the greatest traitor of the Ming Dynasty by officials of the Ming Dynasty. He was a member of the fifth-ranking Qian family. He actually surrendered to the puppet Tang thief army and served as a soldier with an unknown name.
Sir, this is simply treason and intolerable.
If the Zeng family hadn't been in Xingquan Mansion, I'm afraid the Ming Dynasty would have confiscated the entire Zeng family and exterminated them.
Fortunately, after the Tang Dynasty completely took control of Xingquan Mansion, the safety of the Zeng family was initially guaranteed, and Zeng Ziwen gave up his pseudonym and restored his real name.
The Zeng family, who live in Xingquanfu City, finally knew that Zeng Ziwen, whom they thought was dead, had become a major rebel. This reversal frightened the Zeng family. It is said that Zeng Ziwen's uncle was frightened on the spot.
Half dead.
However, the matter has come to this, whether they are frightened and panicked, or unwilling, they all have to accept the reality, and then consider the future more realistically.
The Zeng family has become a rebel family. If the Tang Dynasty is over, the Zeng family will be over too.
Even for the Zeng family themselves, the Tang Dynasty cannot be finished. Not only cannot it be finished, but it is best to develop and grow smoothly, so that the Zeng family can maintain its current wealth and even reach a higher level.
