The geography of the Western Regions has its own special characteristics, and there are not many livable places. Therefore, Dunhuang, as a desert oasis, is the foundation of almost all wealthy families. Some even have their industries thousands of miles away, or their industries are far away.
Their main business is not located in Shazhou. Their family head also lives in Shazhou. This is the core place of the power class in the Western Region. Who wants to be excluded?
Therefore, Xia Xun's purge only needs to focus on Shazhou, which is enough to cover all forces within a radius of thousands of miles.
The Great Purge relied on the power of the local army and powerful men, and Xia Xun's own army suppressed the bandits.
A swarm of horse thieves originally numbered more than 10,000 men. Half of them were wiped out by Xia Xun in a battle a few days ago, and their vitality was severely damaged. Because of this, Barcelona could not hold back its anger and did not immediately launch revenge.
However, Xia Xun still refused to give up and sent his elite soldiers to find Mén on his own initiative.
Because there are not many habitable places in the desert, most of the sandbank dignitaries are actually aware of the swarms of thieves. The problem is that just as the Ming Empire is well aware of the grazing land of the Tatar Khan, but it may not be able to send troops to destroy it.
Their military force is very strong, and all forces must be gathered to launch an encirclement and suppression campaign. It is difficult for anyone who gathers forces from all sides to fulfill this call.
Secondly, even if they can successfully mobilize the force of all parties in Shazhou, once the swarm is defeated, they will abandon their nest and flee, which in turn will intensify their revenge. Therefore, the heroes of all parties in Shazhou have never been able to find the heart to launch a decisive battle, and this
Once, Xia Xun took the initiative to take on this task. This was a feat that won the support of Shazhou's powerful men and local people.
Xia Xun's elite soldiers fought several battles and annihilated a large number of horse thieves, forcing Barça to abandon their old nest and flee into the desert in the wind and snow. Then they gave up, and then through the interrogation of the captured horse thieves leader, they obtained a large amount of confidential information: "There are some powerful people on the sandbank."
The mén dignitaries and horse thieves are secretly colluding.”
Whether this news was accurate or not was quickly forgotten by everyone after the bloody purge began. The Shazhou dignitaries were both afraid of Xia Xun's tough tactics and coveted the huge benefits brought to them by the purged magnates.
With everyone busy "dividing the spoils" of business opportunities and wealth, who has the time to care whether those unlucky ones who have been exterminated are more unjust than Dou E.
The cleaning work was entirely done by the powerful people of Shazhou.
Xia Xun locked some sandbank wealthy men through the situation introduced to him by Xilin and Jeanna. Since Xilin and Jeanna had been in the Central Plains for a few years, the situation may have changed, so he used Qianlong to target these wealthy men based on Xilin's information.
, the situation introduced by Jeanne was screened and judged again, and finally the positions of the Shazhou dignitaries were divided into opposition, centrist, and supportive groups.
The heads of the powerful clans, such as Suinan and Kunji, were given the title of guard commander by the Ming Dynasty and became the de facto emperors of the Shazhou area. They gained the most benefits, so they were also the most inclined to the Ming Dynasty; most of them were centrist wallflowers.
, it doesn't matter who they turn to, as long as it can protect their interests; some others judge that Tamerlane is powerful and his attempt to occupy the Central Plains is a foregone conclusion, and they have already secretly winked and taken refuge with Tamburlaine.
Xia Xun launched a purge based on these powerful men who supported the Ming Dynasty the most.
As the executors, the executors are naturally allocated the most of the wealth, lands, real estate, adulterous children, and even their shops and trade shares of the persons being purged, so they work enthusiastically. However, the centipede cannot die.
Zheng, any powerful men, their strength and direct relatives will not all settle on the sandbank. After being purged, their scattered family members will inevitably flee.
With the meticulousness of Xia Xun's actions, if he planned carefully and secretly dispatched personnel to various places to attack at the same time, although it could not be said to be a catch-all, it would still be able to defeat the forces that had been purged of wealthy men to the greatest extent. However, he did not do this.
The matter is completely handed over to the executors of Shazhou, allowing them to use rough and direct methods to do things. The remaining remnants who escaped are certainly a trouble, but they are also a driving force, which will push these benefit recipients to stand firmer.
On the side of Ming Dynasty, I will never think of him again.
Politically, Xia Xun, as the Duke of the Ming Dynasty and the imperial envoy of the Western Region Defense Line, has supreme power. There is no legal problem with anything he does here. The only thing that needs to be resolved is the public opinion. But he has now been converted to Islam.
The elders recommend him as the imam, the executor of God's will. The devout believers will instinctively analyze and understand his actions from their own perspective without feeling any resistance.
At the same time, Xia Xun will also pay attention to protecting these ordinary people and the wealthy families who were confiscated. Of course, the biggest benefit is to be divided up by other wealthy families, but the little wealth leaked from their fingers is also a fortune if it is shared with the ordinary people.
The considerable wealth gained them even more support and enthusiastic response. Soon, people began to take the initiative to report and expose the crimes of some evil tycoons.
Their reports were immediately rewarded generously, so more people joined in enthusiastically, and a vigorous national movement was launched in full swing on the sandbank like the scorching sun of July...
For many days in a row, some people were unlucky and some were suddenly rich. Those powerful families who had been entrenched in the place for many years but chose to side with Timur when Timur was about to arrive were severely punished. Their property, farms, horse farms, fields, and shops were confiscated.
, mines, and factories were all divided up. Some wealthy families with keen vision quickly expressed their support for Xia Xun's decision and actively participated in the purge work. After absorbing the wealth of the purged wealthy men, they quickly became the first-tier powerful families.
As a result, the political landscape of Shazhou changed rapidly.
In this process, Xia Xun was easily able to support and cultivate some cronies to serve as agents of the Ming Dynasty in the Western Regions.
The purge process was bloody, but the intensity of the propaganda work was also unprecedented. The crimes of the purged people were always announced in time: they colluded with horse thieves and secretly ate up various caravans; they rebelled and surrendered to the enemy, betraying the interests of the people of Shazhou; they
Arrogant and domineering, crowding out the business of other families..., standing in the desert, shivering in the biting cold wind, with a mouthful of snow and a mouthful of beef meat in his belly, Barça didn't even start a fire or bury the stove.
I have already been blamed one after another.
This great purge, with its cruelty and bloodshed, changed the power structure of Shazhou that had been formed for more than a hundred years in the shortest possible time.
luàn and then cure, break and then establish
Faced with the complicated and complicated situation of Shazhou's forces, Xia Xun adopted the most extreme but most effective method: **
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
The centrists are in constant panic. Those families who were originally more inclined to the Ming Dynasty have long been eager to express their stance and stand under the banner of the Duke of Fuguo. Some wealthy families who have flirted with Timur's forces are trying to secretly communicate with each other.
Then he was as silent as a cicada, immediately gave up the idea, canceled all contact, and watched the changes in the sandbank in confusion, wanting to see the wind again before talking.
Of course, the executors who have tasted the benefits and are increasingly interested in eliminating dissidents do not mind expanding the scale of the purge. Some families have not yet understood the direction of the trend, and they are hesitant about who to sit on, and they are picked.
The head went away.
As a result, more people became panicked. Many families did not have their own powerful weapons and huge wealth like the big families on the front line. They didn't know how to show their side, so they came to pay homage to Duke Fu.
There are more and more chiefs and gentry, and they want to know clearly where the limit of this prince is and how they should behave in order to protect themselves.
Miss Xilin said delicately to the Shazhou gentlemen who had the courage to join a gang and came to pay their respects: "The Duke of Guo is reviewing official documents, please wait a moment."
As more and more people came to visit Xia Xun, even one of Xia Xun's concubines became rich, not to mention the two beautiful "concubines" around Xia Xun who were responsible for reporting legends.
No one knows how powerful the pillow style is than these wealthy men. These two beauties brought by the Duke of Guo are obviously his favorite concubines. If you want to see Duke Fu, you must
How could I not take good care of them in order to please the Duke?
So the two girls exchanged their savings for one another, and now they can be called a little rich woman with their house savings.
At this moment, Miss Xilin is wearing a snow fox fur, a sable cloak, a golden mouse scarf around her neck, a sleeping rabbit Zhaojun warmer on her head, and deerskin boots.
Her elegant posture complements her pretty face, making her extremely charming.
These chiefs, leaders, gentry and dignitaries filled the courtyard. When they heard Xilin say this, they nodded in a hurry: "Business matters are important, official matters are important. The Duke of the country is busy first. We are not in a hurry, we are not in a hurry."
Then some small items specially prepared for her were handed over to her. The items were all wrapped up well, and they didn't look big. There were few rare treasures that were huge. But although the gifts were petite, they couldn't handle the number of people giving them.
After a while, Xilin's sleeves became heavy. She smiled brightly at the gentlemen, turned around, and walked into the room as softly as a feather.
So these pampered gentlemen stood in the courtyard where the cold wind was howling, stretching their necks and staring straight at the door, looking forward to the Duke's reception, as if they were about to go into the oven.
Duck.
In the warm room, Xia Xun, who was said to be reviewing official documents, was lying on a soft couch at the moment. His almost naked toned skin was smeared with oil, and the oil stains were bronzed, like a dead horse.
Duck in the oven.
Seeing the majestic and fit man's body, Xilin's eyes drifted away for a moment, and she couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva...
