Chapter 564 The stumbling block to misery
Before Yan Mingjun came to Danzhou, he had the idea of winning over the hearts and minds of the cultural circles after he got to the local government, but the cruel facts have made him give up this unrealistic idea. The integrity of the people in the Danzhou cultural circle is not as good as
How good are those businessmen who are full of the smell of copper, and these people flatter Haihan, and they say it in a coherent manner, one after another, which is much more disgusting than those uneducated businessmen. Although Yan Mingjun sees it
Only some representatives from the local cultural circles were present, but it was enough to see from them the general direction of local public opinion.
After having such experiences and perceptions, Yan Mingjun no longer has much affection for the local literati, let alone trust. Huang Zixing, who is visiting for the first time, has no idea what the position is. What if he is also colluding with the Haihan people?
Then Li Jin's remarks are undoubtedly very dangerous. If people report this to the Haihan people later, I am afraid that Li Jin will suffer some overt and covert losses again.
Yan Mingjun took over the conversation calmly and said: "Haihan people are busy dealing with local post-disaster affairs, and it is inevitable that there will be delays in the handover of official affairs. General Li's words are a bit extreme. I think that the Haihan people lead
He led the militia to repel the pirates, recapture Danzhou, and led the local post-disaster reconstruction. This contribution is too great and cannot be ignored. I also intend to write to the court to ask for credit for the leaders of Haihan."
Huang Zixing said: "Does Master Yan really think so? Although the grassroots people were not able to go and cleanse the two adults yesterday, they also heard that Director Zhang of Haihan made rude remarks at that time, which made Master Yan very difficult to live with!"
Yan Mingjun smiled calmly and said: "It's just a rumor in the market. Don't take it seriously, Mr. Huangshan."
Huang Zixing nodded and said: "The common people dare to ask again, do you think this Danzhou is my Danzhou of the Ming Dynasty, or is it the Danzhou of Haihan? What the Haihan people do is for the sake of the Ming Dynasty.
Or for themselves?"
"Bold!" Yan Mingjun frowned and shouted loudly: "How can you, a scholar, say such rebellious remarks?"
Huang Zixing stood up and bowed deeply: "It turns out that Mr. Yan thinks that the people of Haihan are doing the right thing, and it is the common people who are arrogant, so I will say goodbye!"
Huang Zixing turned around and took two steps, when he heard Yan Mingjun calling him from behind: "Stay here for a long time in Mount Huang!"
Huang Zixing stopped, turned around and asked, "Do you have any other instructions, sir?"
"In Huang Shanzhang's remarks, it seems that he is quite dissatisfied with Haihan. Can you explain the reasons for this?" Yan Mingjun asked. Huang Zixing's words were thorny, and it was obvious that he had feelings against Haihan, but
Yan Mingjun didn't know his background, and he didn't dare to express his opinions at will. Seeing that this man was about to leave, Yan Mingjun couldn't help but call him out - if this man really had some resentment towards Haihan, maybe he could be punished
use.
"The Haihan people occupied our Ming Dynasty's land, destroyed our Ming Dynasty's laws, enslaved our Ming Dynasty people, and disrupted our Ming Dynasty's trade. Aren't these things enough to make people dissatisfied with them?" Huang Zixing responded in a deep voice.
Yan Mingjun shook his head and said: "If there is dissatisfaction only because of these reasons, I think that many people in Danzhou probably have similar ideas. But after weighing the pros and cons, the vast majority of people still choose to cooperate with the Haihan people. If Huangshan Chang
If you don’t plan to follow the crowd, there must be some special reason, right?”
Although Yan Mingjun became interested in Huang Zixing, it was not easy for him to trust him. Especially after listening to the discussion of the locals in the teahouse this morning, he had a deeper understanding of the situation in Danzhou.
.Both the political, business and cultural circles here have been deeply controlled by Haihan's interests. The middle and upper class people in society are inextricably entangled with Haihan's interests, making it unlikely that they will stand up and openly oppose Haihan's local rule.
, because the consequences of doing so will also harm their own interests. And the sudden emergence of an alien like Huang Zixing in this environment is obviously not in line with the people of Danzhou. Yan Mingjun even has a little suspicion that this Huang Zixing
Are the spies deliberately sent by the Haihan people to test their attitude?
Huang Zixing said: "To be honest with Mr. Yan, the grassroots people do have some special reasons. But since Mr. Yan's views on the Haihan people are different from those of the grassroots people, there is no need to waste your time."
"Chief Huangshan, please sit down and talk. I am very interested in hearing your reasons." Since Yan Mingjun had this intention, he decided to find out: "If you are right, I will understand."
There is judgment.”
Huang Zixing hesitated for a moment, then sat back in his seat: "Since your Excellency is sincere in asking you to stay, then the common people will tell the truth. The common people are people from Fucheng and live in Huangjiazhuang, thirty miles west of Fucheng. Most of the residents in this village are from my Huang clan.
In the past, my brother Huang Zixiong was in charge. Before the pirates attacked Danzhou last year, they frequently robbed civilian ships in the Qiongzhou Strait. During this period, they also came ashore to harass. In August, the pirates came ashore to attack Huangjiazhuang. After destroying the village, they killed my brother and his family.
The two sons robbed the people in the village. Later, the pirates attacked Qiongzhou in a large scale, and Huangjiazhuang was looted again. In the end, nearly a thousand people were left alone, and the situation was very tragic! "
Yan Mingjun responded: "It turns out that Chief Huangshan was the victim of the Huangjiazhuang case in Fucheng, Qiongzhou last year. I also saw the case in the newspaper. It was precisely because of this chaos that the prefect who was in charge of Fucheng at that time was
The Qiongzhou Navy was hurriedly dispatched to suppress the bandits."
Huang Zixing sneered and said: "It's a pity that the navy didn't defeat the bandits this time, but he ended up being wiped out."
The Huangjiazhuang mentioned by Huang Zixing was one of the results achieved by Wang Tom with naval troops disguised as pirates in the coastal areas of Qiongbei in September 1630 and August of the third year of Chongzhen. As for why this Huangjiazhuang became a
The target of the attack by the militia group was because the village owner Huang Zixiong and his family adopted a relatively extreme method of resistance against Haihan's infiltration in Qiongbei, and they were the main advocates of the anti-Haihan movement near Fucheng. They also targeted local activities.
The naturalized people resorted to lynching, which greatly affected Haihan's layout in the city.
Those who came ashore at that time were not the navy under Wang Tom, but the Annan special operations force composed of two companies borrowed from Qian Tiandun. This group of people took control of the unsuspecting Huangjiazhuang almost without a fight, and
The three main culprits, Huang Zixiong and his son, were caught. The three members of the family were regarded as a sign of killing chickens to scare monkeys, and they were directly beheaded in public on Zhuangzi. The person who cut off the heads of these three people at that time was the returning leader.
Civilian officer Takahashi Minami.
After this incident reached Fucheng, it directly caused the magistrates and commanders in Fucheng to face great pressure from public opinion, and had to send Qiongzhou Navy troops to suppress the bandits. Of course, what happened later was just like the Haihan Army
As planned by Fang, the Haihan Fleet successfully annihilated the Ming Dynasty's remaining maritime armed forces on Qiongzhou Island in the waters of the Beibu Gulf, paving the way for the navy to completely blockade the Qiongzhou Strait from the sea.
Of course, Huang Zixing's statement was slightly exaggerated. After the militia army disguised as pirates occupied Huangjiazhuang, they did not carry out mass killings except for executing the three Huang family father and son. They just took away all the family members of the Huang family father and son to avoid
It left unnecessary troubles. However, Huang Zixing escaped because he opened an academy in Danzhou and did not live in Huangjiazhuang.
At that time, in order to request a war, the Qiongzhou Prefecture naturally reported the matter in writing to the Guangdong government. The government's newspaper at that time also had relevant records. When Huang Zixing said this, Yan Mingjun remembered that it had indeed happened about four months ago.
I have seen news about this matter.
Although Huang Zixing's evaluation of the Qiongzhou Navy was somewhat unflattering, Yan Mingjun couldn't rebuke him in such details when his family was in disaster. He could only cough and go around: "The Huangshan family has encountered misfortune. I, the officer
I am very sympathetic. But fortunately, the Haihan Militia later regained the lost territory, and in the process, they must have avenged your brother and his family."
Huang Zixing shook his head sadly and said: "If it is really so simple, why would ordinary people resent Haihan people?"
"Oh? Is there something behind this?" When Yan Mingjun heard this, he immediately grasped the key point. It was obvious that Huang Zixing did not appreciate the fact that the Haihan Militia regained Huangjiazhuang. From his tone, he was not even resentful.
Xiao, this is a bit intriguing.
Huang Zixing snorted coldly and said: "You don't know something, sir. Although Huangjiazhuang was robbed by pirates twice, what was robbed was only floating wealth after all. My Huang family's more than 7,000 acres of land in the local area could never be robbed. Who would have expected that?
When the Han people came, they claimed that all land deeds that had been destroyed by pirates during the war were not recognized, and all the land for which no deeds could be obtained was confiscated by them!"
"Confiscated? Whose father is this confiscated?" Li Jin listened intently and couldn't help but interjected and asked.
"Qiongzhou Prefecture has not been breached by pirates. The government in the city naturally has these land deed documents on file. Of course, this confiscation will not be confiscated to Qiongzhou Prefecture." Huang Zixing gritted his teeth and said: "Those Haihan people used tricks to take over.
When they came to Fucheng, they tampered with all the land deeds related to my Huangjiazhuang. As soon as they talked, the thousands of acres of land in my Huangjiazhuang became the Haihan family!"
"This is happening!" Yan Mingjun couldn't help but slapped him on the coffee table: "These Haihan people are really lawless and daring!"
"We, the Huang clan, naturally refused to suffer the loss of being dumb, so we went to Fucheng to complain. Unexpectedly, after we went to the Yamen, we were falsely accused by the Haihan people of colluding with pirates to cause trouble, and all those who went to complain were sent to prison!" Huang Zixing said!
Tears were about to fall down as he spoke: "The Cao Min originally planned to go to Zhaoqing to complain to the Governor, but the Haihan people blocked the ferry across the Qiongzhou Strait. All people going to the mainland must obtain approval from their management committee before they can go. Cao Min
I applied several times but was rejected without reason, and I can’t leave Qiongzhou Island at all.”
The circumstances mentioned by Huang Zixing are not too different from the actual situation. When the Annan militia disguised as pirates swept across Qiongbei, the military consciously arranged a large number of arrangements in order to cooperate with the land policy that the Executive Committee would implement in Qiongbei later.
Actions to eliminate hidden dangers. In places like Huangjiazhuang, which has a clear anti-Hai-Han attitude, the Annan militia directly destroyed all the land titles after taking control of the area, waiting for the militia army to "recover the lost land" and fight against these landowners without any evidence.
Of course, the executive committee has no intention of forcing all these people to a dead end. As long as they are willing to accept Haihan's new land deal, Haihan will convert the land they owned in the past into shares of the collective farm in proportion, and they will still get a share of the collective farm every year.
Some guaranteed income may not make you rich, but it is more than enough to serve as a minimum living standard.
However, people like Huangjiazhuang also tried to get these lands back through official channels. But after Haihan took control of Fucheng, these actions were in vain. With a word from the management committee, all relevant land files were turned over
They came out and went through the transfer procedures. The Huang family, who ran to the gate of the Fucheng Management Committee and cried, were naturally thrown into jail under random excuses.
This method actually does not have much technical content, and can even be described as simple and crude. However, compared with the violent resistance that may be encountered during the promotion of land policies, this approach of eliminating hidden dangers in advance is more appreciated by the Executive Committee.
.
Of course, it is not impossible that Our Lady believed that some innocent people would be involved in this process. However, under the overall goal of "unifying Qiongzhou Island with Haihan", these individual objections were quickly overshadowed by the voices of the majority who were eager to expand their sphere of influence.
Submerged. After all, more than three years have passed, and everyone can’t wait to take Hainan Island, a piece of land with a natural barrier, as their own. But in the process, those who try to use their hands as a cart are going against the direction of historical development.
The "reactionaries" are naturally the targets to be purged and defeated.
After all, it is a time of change of dynasties. Who is willing to spend time convincing these landlords and mothers-in-law? Taking a step back, even if soft methods are used, will these people obediently obey Haihan's new policy? For those who are eager to expand their territory
As far as this emerging force is concerned, these vested interests from the old era are just stumbling blocks on the path forward for the group they belong to. If they are unwilling to move out of the way and make way, then they can only be severely punished.
Kicked away.
Of course, these truths are completely incomprehensible to those on the other side of the incident. For Huang Zixing’s family, they were first robbed by pirates and then forcibly bought and sold by the Haihan people. This was simply the result of two subsequent annihilations.
Disaster. To them, the crimes committed by the two are not more serious. From a certain perspective, the Haihan people who took advantage of the situation are even more heinous.
