Chapter 647

The struggle in the court continues, the struggle at the local level continues, and even the struggle overseas and in other countries has not stopped.

Throughout human history, it is actually a history of struggle.

Where there are people, there must be struggle.

Compared to other creatures, humans are the most ferocious species.

Only humans will do everything possible to kill their own kind. This is not the case in the animal kingdom.

Even for the crucial mating rights, the struggle between males is enough, and there is no need to kill each other.

Only people will kill the same kind because they want to live a better life, or want to vent their anger, or other small reasons.

When it comes to other creatures, everything is edible.

The creature with the most extensive diet is also a human being, and there is not much chance that he will not eat it.

Outside the gate, several Manchus were beheaded.

The reason is also very simple, they want to escape to the customs.

Just for such a simple reason, their actions will not hurt anyone.

However, they still died, were brutally murdered and beheaded.

Because Dorgon gave an order, anyone who tried to escape to the pass would be shot.

Its head should be seen hanging on the intersection, and it will be cast into Jingguan.

He will use this kind of terrifying decree to scare the people below who want to escape and prevent the population from being lost.

Whether a force is strong or not, population is a crucial factor.

Dorgon is currently short of population, very short of population.

However, because of his cruel rule, many people could hardly survive outside the customs. Plus the internal customs policy is so good, free land, seeds and tax exemption.

In contrast, it is a low-level person who wants to go to the gate to seek a life.

"Hey, no matter how you kill it, you can't kill it. What can you do? You can't really kill them all."

One soldier said that his spirit was about to collapse.

Although his family did not suffer more severe exploitation because he was still in the army, his life was quite hard.

He also understood that once he died in battle, the fate of his family would be the same as those who fled to the pass.

Because these refugees were exploited to the point of being unable to survive because there were no adult men in their families who could join the army.

In the past, these families were almost the same as those of their soldiers.

In order to maintain the current military strength, Dorgon has stopped various pensions for the families of the soldiers who died in the war, and even aggravated the exploitation of the families without soldiers.

After all, the families of those soldiers cannot exploit too much for the time being, otherwise the soldiers will rebel.

However, exploiting those families whose men have died in battle will also completely chill the hearts of those soldiers.

Those soldiers who were still alive knew in their hearts that they could not die, and their family members had this fate when they died.

Such an army seems to still have fighting power, but in fact it is already a mess, and no one will go to work.

In Funing, a group of naked and hungry Manchu refugees knelt in front of the county government office, begging the Dahua army to march outside the gate and rescue their clansmen.

These people talked about their escape route with snot and tears, accusing Dorgon of the brutal rule now outside Guan, and telling the dire straits of the people outside Guan.

Hearing these people's speeches, some Han people in Funing had mixed feelings in their hearts.

On the one hand, they were very happy, because these people had intimidated their heads.

On the other hand, because these people are so miserable that people can't bear to look directly, so they have a little sympathy.

Compared with the Han people, the Manchu people who were still here were all sympathetic when they heard it.

Although they did not live well in Funing, at least they were not oppressed. The government clearly stipulated that the two races were equal.

Although some ruthless and arrogant Han people do not obey orders and occasionally bully them, at least they dare not go too far, and they will be accepted if they go to the government.

All in all, it's okay.

Compared to the outside, it is really a million times better.

Hearing the stories of those who escaped, they could not imagine how those people survived.

Everyone doesn't even have two taels of food a day, and it's more than just lying still, let alone working.

"I will report your demands to the above in time and let them send troops as soon as possible."

Funing county magistrate said, and then arranged to give these refugees some food for relief.

As long as these people are saved, they are another batch of labor. The value of later output far outweighs this relief.

In fact, the magistrate of Funing didn't want to deal with such a mess, but whoever made the court's regulations like this, he couldn't help it.

He is somewhat ignorant of many of Dahua's current policies, but it doesn't matter. If you want to keep your official position, you can't go wrong with honest implementation.

In Funing's military camp, Tang Guozhen and others were also studying how to attack outside the customs.

Research comes and goes, and there is only one problem, the logistical problem.

It is almost a thousand miles from Funing to Shengjing (Shenyang), and it is even farther to reach Harbin and the border.

Moreover, a large number of refugees are now detained, which is also the reason why they do not want to attack.

If they don't fight, it's all Dorgon's fault that those refugees suffer.

those who are suffering

People, I hate Dorgon in my heart.

If they go to fight down, then those people will become Dahua's subjects, and they are obliged to go to the rescue.

When the relief is not in place, those people hate Dahua in their hearts.

Now the relief of the northern customs area has become a considerable burden on Dahua, and the ministers in the DPRK and China are extremely opposed to the current attack outside the customs.

In their view, outside the customs is a burden.

It is precisely because of many considerations that Tang Guozhen and the others can only train every day, and then occasionally deduce to attack outside the border, but they have never been able to really act, and have no logistical materials.

At present, Dahua's military focus is in the central and overseas regions, and supplies are given priority to the troops in these places. It is extremely difficult for the troops in other places to get supplies, just like those raised by stepmothers.

The Central Military Region and overseas troops applied for supplies, but it was one batch at a time.

Especially overseas, Fusang Military Region.

Now the military pays special attention to this place, because this place can bring a lot of wealth to Dahua, and it can also bring a lot of wealth to the military.

Relying on the advanced exploration technology provided by Wu Changqing, Dahua has explored two large gold mines in Satsuma Domain and will soon enter the mining stage.

At that time, those wealth will be continuously shipped back to the country.

Fighting overseas is super lucrative. Attacking outside the border, that is a money-losing plan, and naturally it is not welcome.

Tang Guozhen wanted to apply to go overseas, but was opposed by many people in the army.

After all, the good things in the world cannot be made by him alone.
