There is nowhere to get food, and the army cannot sit back and wait to starve to death.Wang Shuo quickly turned his attention to the property left by the Ming Dynasty government in Xining City.In fact, we cannot say that the system of the generation was not advanced at that time.Zhu Yuanzhang was born in poverty, and after becoming the emperor, he still looked towards the poor.The whole land belonging to the Ming Dynasty, the food depots, nursing homes are everywhere, which are prepared for the poor, and the system of cash-for-work is a good guarantee that the poor can live in the event of famine or natural disasters.The entire Qing Dynasty, even in its heyday, only inherited some systems of the previous Ming Dynasty, and did not see any innovations, which may be related to the overall civilization evolution speed of the Manchus.It's a pity that Zhu Yuanzhang's descendants are not angry.The unclear employment led to corrupt officials everywhere and continuous party disputes, forcing the emperor to dare not believe anyone except the eunuchs.The loose policy of convenience with the people did not win the unity of the people, but on the contrary, it created a group of rogue landlords, and the so-called famous scholars and literati they supported, resisted donations and taxes, and won the praise of the public by daring to resist the imperial court, in exchange for false fame, and the party struggle also originated from this.In addition, the last few emperors of the Ming Dynasty after Wanli, most of them were stupid and incompetent, which led to the rampant land annexation, and the serious differentiation between the rich and the poor, so they made a good world into a miasma, and finally the world was in chaos, and the smoke was everywhere.Therefore, larger cities and health centers have prepared grain depots, and as long as the local bureaucrats are not too lawless, the grain depots will store a lot of grain in case of famine.This is also the reason why Li Zicheng was able to gather an army of millions without worrying about food, and grew rapidly.Wherever Li Zicheng passed, everyone would be coerced away by him, leaving behind uninhabited villages and cities.The Shun army moved, the old and weak women and children were in the middle, the strong men were holding weapons all around, the front was the surrendering army, and the surrounding was his cavalry, hundreds of thousands of men, women and children rolled forward, looking from afar, the yellow dust was all over the sky.Thousands of Ming troops were scared to death, and they didn't dare to move forward at all.To say that this is an army is really reluctant; If this is a swarm of locusts, it is very similar.It was only later, under the persuasion of Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance, Li Yan and other people of insight, that Li Zicheng gradually gave up this form of locust army.This kind of locust army will never engage in production, except for destruction, nothing else.But the reason why it was able to survive was because of the grain reserves of the Ming Dynasty.When these reserves of grain are tossed up by this locust leader and peasant leader, he can only make a living by looting, and it is certain that military discipline will deteriorate.And the demise of the Ming Dynasty, if it has nothing to do with this locust king, it is really unreasonable.Fortunately, Li Zicheng has never been to Xining, and Li Daozhong, the grain in Xining Grain Station, is an honest man, and the grain in the grain depot has been stored in accordance with the regulations of the imperial court, and he has not sold it privately for personal gain like other officials, which has solved a big problem for Wang Shuo.Wang Shuo also took a fancy to Li Daozhong's incorruptibility, and still let this grain station manage the grain, and let him manage all the materials of the army.However, it is no longer called the grain platform, but the logistics minister.Li Daozhong was reluctant at first, what kind of official is this logistics minister, the imperial court does not have this official position, besides, this grain is disaster prepared, without the holy decree of the current Long Live Lord and the seal of the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court, no one can open it and use it, how can you open a warehouse without authorization Wang Shuo will explain to him what the world has reached now, if you don't open a warehouse, the army will starve, how to defeat the thief As for what kind of official this minister is, because I am now spontaneously organizing troops to defend the Ming Dynasty, and the court and here are blocked by thieves and soldiers, and they can't be reported, so I can't appoint you to be an official of the court, But my official is definitely bigger than Liangtai, well, Xiao He knows, when the world is pacified in the future, your credit will be the same as Xiao He, you can go to Lingyan Pavilion Li Daozhong to ponder, I am Xiao He, right, Xiao He is the prime minister, if I become the prime minister, then don't you dare to say it, and you don't dare to think about it.Wang Shuo was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, and told him, I took a fancy to you, give you a team of baggage soldiers, you did a good job of this logistics minister for me, you have to have what I want, no, be careful of your head Li Daozhong is a timid person, let Wang Shuo glare and frighten, honestly The logistics minister went, and no longer dared to think about whether Wang Shuo wanted to save Daming, or like Li Zicheng, he wanted to eliminate Daming.Everything gradually came to a head, and Wang Shuo had time to deal with the toasts who were still under house arrest.To solve the toast in Qinghai, we must first solve the big toasts like Qi Tingji and Li Tianyu, as long as these two big forces obey, the rest of the small toasts will not be able to make any waves.During this time, he studied the situation in Qinghai with Lu Yinchang and Liang Min when he was fine, and pondered on how to deal with these toasts, and there was already a solution, but no one dared to be sure whether it would succeed or not.On this day, Wang Shuo changed into a scribe's attire and went to Qi Ting's mansion alone to visit the Ming Dynasty Qinghai to comfort Qi Ting's advice
