Chapter 74: Game "They are not confused for a moment.
What they never forget is the privilege that has been hard-earned for thousands of years."
Su Mingzhe, the chief historian at the temporary residence of the Governor's Mansion in Huai'an, grinned bitterly and slowly put the list in his hand on the candle.
The flames jumped, and the white paper filled with names slowly turned into ashes, and at the same time, it completely swallowed up countless secrets.
Liu Ziyun, deputy commander of the First Army, Chief Shi Luluzeng, Zhang Song, director of the Internal Security Department, Huang Laowai, director of the Engineering Bureau, Jiao Yu, the principal of the Grand Craftsman Academy, and several others who had followed Zhu Chongjiu since Xuzhou, looked at Looking at the green smoke rising slowly above the candle, his face was filled with anger and unwillingness.
The Zhejiang army led by Dong Tuanxiao was completely wiped out at the foot of Jiangwan City.
Fang Guozhen withdrew the entire army to Wenzhou with the alliance with the Huai'an army.
Tuotuo's 300,000-strong army left more than 30,000 corpses and returned in defeat. .
The Huai'an Army's biggest crisis since its independence has been completely resolved.
However, no one here felt relaxed.
According to a joint investigation by the Internal Security Department and the Yangzhou Government Office, at the most dangerous moment, there were actually hundreds of wealthy families in Huaiyang and Yangzhou who had secretly established contact with Dong Tuanxiao or Tuotuo.
Be ready at any time to cooperate with the inside and outside to overthrow the Huaiyang General Manager's Office.
And among these hundreds of large families, more than half actually have children who hold high-level positions in the General Manager's Mansion or the Huai'an Army.
The remaining half of the family has also received dividends from many workshops and Huaiyang businesses in Huaiyang in the past two years.
But these positions and bonuses cannot be exchanged for their loyalty.
Because the current decree implemented by the Huaiyang General Administration is incompatible with the ideas they firmly believe in.
They firmly believe that emperors, scholars and officials rule the world together.
This world has never belonged to the common people.
But it was jointly owned by the emperor and the "talents".
As for the latter, they were also called sages, gentlemen, and nobles in ancient times.
Since the Northern Song Dynasty, they have been collectively called scholar-bureaucrats.
It is said that this sentence was first said by Wen Yanbo.
At that time, Emperor Shenzong of the Northern Song Dynasty believed that the new law was beneficial to the people, but was opposed by the scholar-bureaucrats.
Wen Yanbo responded very honestly: Your Majesty is not ruling the world with the people, but ruling the world with the scholar-bureaucrats.
Before that, Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty once said: "Today's herders will rule the world with me."
The upheaval came even earlier, when Wei Wu and Cao Cao once issued an edict to everyone in the world, "Since ancient times, there have been no kings who have been appointed to Zhongxing, and there are no wise men and gentlemen who can rule the world with them."
For Zhongmingdingshi House, money gains and losses are just numbers.
The reduction of privileges is a painful experience.
Without privileges, they lose their innate sense of superiority and the direction of their efforts.
Without their privileges, they also lost countless opportunities for taking advantage of others and taking advantage of them for free.
They read more, are smarter than ordinary people, and have more connections and political experience.
He has a high prestige, and everyone in the countryside is loyal to his word.
Ordinary bankers have no other choice but to follow them.
They are eloquent and know how to write books.
Write the black as white and the white as black, then point to the lies above and say without blushing, this is the hidden fact.
Therefore, those who have wanted to conquer the world since ancient times, even if they were born at the bottom of society like Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty.
If he wants to achieve his goals, he must share the interests with the sages and scholar-bureaucrats, otherwise, he will be a monomaniac and a thief.
Even if he has great achievements, even if he has saved countless ordinary people from fire and water, he is and must be a tyrant.
It is the common responsibility of the scholar-bureaucrats to push him into the mud pit and continue to pour dirty water on him to set an example.
And those foreign invaders, such as the Wuhu, the Jurchens, and the Meng Yuan, no matter how many people they killed, how many Han classics they burned, how many cities and villages they destroyed, as long as they were willing to share power with the scholar-bureaucrats, they would be the rulers of the ages.
One emperor.
So many scholar-bureaucrats quoted scriptures and made inferences.
When the Yi and Di enter China, they will become China.
So there were many scholar-bureaucrats who used every possible means to smear the massacre.
Describe it as the descendants of the Han family are to blame themselves.

Thus, one hero after another, one prosperous age after another, were born in a pool of blood.
Even if the people at that time had only nine empty houses, even if the surviving population dropped sharply to one-third of the original number.
Anyway, the scholar-bureaucrats can still stand tall together with the invaders.
Anyway, the ones who were killed and insulted were not themselves.
Although the power of the Internal Security Department is strictly limited, and no torture is allowed against anyone without the simultaneous signature of two commanders and above.
The results of the investigation are still shocking.
Deliberately spreading rumors to create chaos, deliberately hoarding goods to drive up prices, deliberately leaking the secrets of the Huai'an Army to the enemy, and some even deliberately created deficiencies to create opportunities for Tuotuo to cross the Yellow River.
One by one, if all are traced to the end, it is estimated that more than half of the wealthy families in Huaiyang and the three places that have not been left will be cut off again.
And if even their children and nephews pass the test one by one, the Huaiyang General Manager's Office and the Huaiyang Company will be paralyzed at the same time.
Even the morale of the Second, Third, and Fifth Armies that were deployed abroad would be seriously affected.
Therefore, after repeated weighing, Su Mingzhe could only adopt the opinions of Luo Ben, the prefect of Yangzhou, and Liu Ji, the head of Mingli Academy, and imitate Cao Cao's old trick after the Battle of Guandu during the Three Kingdoms, and put the list of names that the Internal Security Department had worked hard to find out.
Burned to the ground.
"At this juncture, the most important thing is to stabilize people's hearts.
As for other matters in the military, the commanders of each army will investigate them according to military laws.
Matters in the workshops are handled by the supervisors at all levels of the work bureau, and the Huaiyang Company also has My own set of supervision regulations."
Sensing the depressive atmosphere in the room, Su Mingzhe smiled and explained in a low voice.
"In a word, everything must be done according to the rules, and no indulgence is in vain.
After all, at that time, no one knew whether our Huaiyang General Manager's Office could hold on.
So it is understandable that we have more ideas."
These sentences are also quoted from Liu Ji and Liu Bowen's advice to him, and are not his original creation.
As a low-level official, he couldn't come up with such a "brilliant" idea.
Let go of the vast majority of those who secretly have contact with Meng Yuan, and only pursue those who have taken actual actions.
And the charges against the latter group of people should try not to rely on terms such as "treason" and "collusion with foreign enemies."
It is only handled based on the facts of its actions and citing relevant laws and rules.
"Damn, they're really getting an advantage."
Someone yelled at more attendees, and responded with a low sigh, "Huh!"
Apart from this, what better way is there?
At present, General Manager Zhu is chatting with Tuo Tuo on the bank of Daqing River.
Xu Da and Hu Dahai led their brothers to look for opportunities after escaping.
If everyone suddenly launched a purge operation in the three places of Huaiyang, the Tatar court would probably be the happiest.
"Except for those who hold key positions and have mastered conclusive evidence, all other relevant case files will also be burned together."
First Army Commander Shi Luzeng only had poor mental endurance, and his political experience and methods far exceeded Su Mingzhe's. wait.
Seeing that the latter had already taken the first step, he simply decided to be a "good guy" and do it for Zhu Chongjiu to the end.
"When burning, don't hide it, put it in the courtyard of the Internal Security Department, or burn it on the street.
Let some people I am completely relieved, I no longer have to worry about the chief manager coming back to settle the score with them."
"Humph" Liu Ziyun, Huang Laowai, Jiao Yu and others frowned.
"My subordinate understands.
I will send someone to do it now.
Make sure that everyone who wants to see it can see it."
Zhang Song, who had served as the prefect of Meng Yuan, agreed simply and neatly.
"Take your time, this is not something that happens overnight."
Knowing that Zhu Chongjiu's die-hard supporters Liu Ziyun, Huang Laowai and Jiao Yu were unwilling to give in, Lu Zeng glanced at a few of them and continued to add in a low voice.
"I will leave a copy of our decision today to the chief manager.
If he feels that our handling is inappropriate after he comes back, he can also ask the Internal Security Department to continue investigating.
Anyway, those people will definitely be reluctant to run away for the time being."

"The key is that after killing them, the replacements will be the same."
Luo Ben, the prefect of Yangzhou who came all the way to discuss the matter, stood up from the corner and supported with a wry smile.
"At present, those who are literate in the three places of Huaiyang basically come from gentry families.
In a short period of time, the General Manager's Office cannot do without them.
But when the first batch of students from the county school, government school and Baigong Technical School finish their studies It will be much better after that.
The students will understand the truth better and be more loyal to the general manager.
This battle in Yangzhou is a good example.
The students in Jiangwu Hall and the generals who have been trained in Jiangwu Hall are far better than those in Yangzhou.
Untrained people perform well.”
The latter sentence made everyone's expressions immediately relaxed.
Many people in county schools, government schools, Baigong Technical Schools and Martial Arts Schools were very confused when General Manager Zhu invested large sums of money into them.
Not only are students not required to attend school, the school is also responsible for distributing clothes and taking care of food.
If you don't work for a master to learn a craft, you will still get paid every month.
This big manager is too doting on the children.
However, when the crisis came, the role of these schools was immediately apparent.
Seven out of ten people who took the initiative to refute the rumors that the general manager had died in the battle were students from the county school and the government school.
In the workshop, more than eight out of ten people who helped build weapons day and night were graduates of Baigong Technical School.
The students from the Martial Arts Hall responded more directly to the General Manager's Office.
They simply picked up weapons and went to the battlefield.
Advance and retreat together with the Huai'an army, and die without hesitation If being able to read and write can be called a talent, these students are the Grand Manager's own talents, their own scholar-bureaucrats.
As long as they grow up in batches, the General Administration will no longer face the dilemma of knocking out teeth and swallowing them like today.
Even if it is difficult for them to have such amazing and talented characters as "Wolong and Fengxiao" among them.
The three cobblers are the equal of Zhuge Liang.
With their absolute numerical superiority, they can also make the Grand Controller's Mansion crush any enemy in the future battle to conquer the world:
