Since the eunuch system is going to be eliminated, the bad habits and customs of palace ladies are also among those that Zhu Yongxing wants to eradicate. Five years, from the 11th and 2nd to the 16th and 7th, being released will not affect marriages, and there is still a fixed salary to be paid. Speaking of which,
, which is equivalent to hiring, and a maid is equivalent to working.
From a deeper perspective, Zhu Yongxing was also setting an example and paving the way, but his ultimate goal was to eliminate the largest group of untouchables—the slaves.
The barrier between the good and the untouchables is very strict. In addition to the two major channels of study and marriage being blocked, if the untouchables break the law and harm the good people, they will be punished aggravatedly, while if the good people violate the untouchables, the punishment will be reduced according to the law.
This kind of unequal treatment reaches its extreme between master and slave. A slave who beats his master, whether injured or not, can be punished by hanging. If he kills his master, he will be punished with the death penalty of Ling Chi. In turn, it is only natural for the master to teach his slave a lesson.
Unless you kill without reason, you will not bear any responsibility. Even in the case of killing without permission, the punishment is quite light. It is just a few slaps, and no more serious than one or two years in prison. If you are an official, you can even be demoted or fined.
It's over.
The most egregious thing is the stipulation on the non-criminal nature of rape. Between masters and slaves, there is either no punishment at all. For example, "Masters who rape their slave wives will not sit down!"; or they only punish rape, and the punishment is extreme.
If it is a minor offense, it usually ends with a few slaps. However, if a slave injures her master because she refuses to rape him, he will be punished according to the same laws as beating his parents, and the crime may even lead to imprisonment. Such examples are the experiences of the mandarin ducks in "A Dream of Red Mansions" and Mingfeng in "The Family"
, is a vivid portrayal.
From the perspective of the number of groups, slaves are the largest. Most of them are owned by rich and powerful families. Which big family does not have several maids and servants? Except for slaves, they are almost enemies of the entire upper class. Zhu Yongxing is no longer a slave.
I feel it's unfair and don't dare to act rashly.
From the analysis of the implementation of laws and regulations, top-down can be regarded as an effective method. The so-called "what is good from the top must be followed by the bottom" is not unreasonable. Just like the maid given by Zheng Zhaoda. It is because of Zhu Yongxing's
My favorites are all women with natural feet. Not one has a three-inch golden lotus.
There can and must be maids and servants, but social status needs to change and legal provisions need to be clear. The relationship between master and servant should be one of employment and employment, not ownership of a person.
Zhu Yongxing has realized the difficulty of this work. You must know that this is a problem that has not been completely solved until the Republic of China. But why not do it if it is difficult? Of course not. Just like this national war, we must persevere. And he
The first step has been taken, which is to cancel the title of slave in the palace. Of course, chaos is inevitable. The servants are called "people's daughter", "villain" and so on in a mess.
"Back to Your Highness, I think it is appropriate to set up a school to recruit servants of such an age to teach them how to read, digit, and behave in a respectful manner." Duan Wan'er was puzzled by Zhu Yongxing's sudden request and remained silent.
It took a while before I finally came to some realizations and put forward my own suggestions.
Zhu Yongxing smiled. This was his request, but it was also a test for Duan Wan'er. Unexpectedly, the test paper had not been handed in yet, so this suggestion revealed her talents.
In the history compiled by the Qing Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was very unlucky, especially the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty. In fact, most of the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty entered the palace from childhood, and there were also special schools in the palace. For some,
Smart little eunuchs are trained according to the requirements of civil servants. In a sense, this kind of education is more suitable because there is no need for exam-oriented education. There were only a few famous bad eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty, which is consistent with the productivity of scum among civil servants.
Not high in comparison.
Zhu Yongxing also considered the issue of specialized schools. After all, according to the education penetration rate of this era, it is very difficult to recruit a sufficient number of educated maids or servants. If they are born with deficiencies, they will be nurtured.
, this is similar to the way later generations opened literacy classes and night schools.
"Very good, if you can think of this, the word Xi can be removed." Zhu Yongxing raised his hand and motioned for Duan Wan'er to stand up and come closer. He picked up a pen and paper and wrote a few notes at random.
"That's probably the case. If you have any opinions, you can complete them in the report. You have the talent, but you still lack the courage. If you have someone to support you, feel free to do it."
"Thank you for your attention, Your Highness. I will do my best to do it." Duan Wan'er smiled slightly, moved closer to the desk, and reached out to pick up the paper.
Zhu Yongxing smelled a gust of fragrance, which was elegant and not vulgar. He couldn't help but feel swayed. But when he saw Ruyu's little hand reaching out, he couldn't help but rub it gently. He felt that it was light, soft and smooth, and felt very good to the touch.
Duan Wan'er's face turned red again, she bit her red lips lightly, took the paper and blessed herself again, and said in a trembling voice: "I wonder if your highness has any other instructions?"
Cough, Zhu Yongxing also felt a little embarrassed, he coughed slightly awkwardly, waved his hand and said: "It's okay, please step back!"
Duan Wan'er bowed and exited, closing the door gently, with a sly smile on her lips. Zhang Weihan's teachings were indeed useful, and she did things with peace of mind, and she really attracted the attention of His Highness Min. But Li Jinxia relied on her
They are talented and handsome, but they are so anxious that they rush to stick up, but they fall behind. Look, His Highness Min is aware of it and is wary, so he wants to drive them out!
His Highness is probably worried that Li Jinxia will be harmful to Mengzhu and Long'er, right? Duan Wan'er was guessing as he walked. If this is the case, he should keep a low profile and not fight for it. Your Highness needs a good housekeeper in the inner palace.
But there is no need for women who may pose a threat to Mengzhu and Longer, no matter how beautiful you are. Only recruiting eleven or two little girls and releasing them when they grow up is also based on this consideration, right?
……………
A loud noise broke the silence of dawn. The west wall of Meizhou City suddenly burst open from the inside out, and the bricks and dust inside rose into the sky, as if a monster emerged from the city wall. At the same time as the loud noise, the monster
The smoke and dust that jumped up from the ground covered this section of the city wall so tightly that nothing could be seen.
A large gap was opened in the city wall. Amidst the choking smoke of gunpowder and the wails of the wounded, a rain of gravel fell near the blast point, and a large number of shattered bricks fell from the air back to the ground, spilling out.
It was so far away, broken bricks and rubble were scattered all over the place, and the scene was a mess.
"The city is broken, go and seal it!" After a moment of panic, accompanied by shrill and frightened howls, the Qing troops who came to their senses and defended the city rushed to reinforce the collapsed area from all directions.
On the Ming army's position outside the city, the soldiers lined up calmly. They did not take the opportunity to launch an attack. It seemed that they unfortunately missed this opportunity to break the city.
The swarming Qing troops surrounded the gap in the smoke and dust, and the Qing generals breathed a sigh of relief. Large groups of Qing soldiers transferred from other areas had blocked the gap with dazzling swords and guns, and both ends of the gap were also covered with densely packed bows and arrows.
Hands occupy.
"I'm so lucky. I'm really blessed by the Bodhisattva." The guard wiped the dense beads of sweat on his forehead. Although he didn't know how the Ming army overturned the city wall and why they didn't take advantage of the opportunity to attack, the immediate crisis seemed to be over.
The next step is to use wood to build a fence behind the gap. When the Ming army attacks the gap again, there will be archers on both sides of the head ready. The front will also encounter resistance from the Qing infantry relying on the fence for defense. Once the fence is completed
, after surviving this day, the defender will organize the people to use large wooden cages filled with stones to fill the gaps in the wooden cages, making the defense easier.
The Qing generals had already made plans and arrangements for the next step, and were deeply grateful for the Ming army's slowness.
But the reality is extremely cruel. Before the plan was put into action, a series of deafening explosions sounded again. A large number of Qing troops who were waiting for the battle were shrouded in flying rubble and smoke along with dozens of meters of city walls. Not only were there casualties.
It was a heavy blow, and the fighting spirit and morale that had just been restored were dealt a heavy blow.
This time, the Ming army really launched an attack. The attack was like fire and the charge was like wind. Before the smoke and dust had completely dissipated, the Ming army soldiers had already approached the gap. Amidst the intensive firing of muskets, the commandos quickly entered the city.
The Ming army had considerable experience in sieges and operations after the city was broken. They broke through quickly and launched quickly. Under the command of the officers, the soldiers of each unit advanced in an orderly manner, spreading the battle to various places in the city.
Although it will take time to deal with the Qing army in the city, the overall situation has been decided. With more and less, superior equipment to defeat backward weapons, and morale to defeat the army's demoralization, there is no doubt about victory. Moreover, because the Qing army relied too much on the city, it was difficult for them to defeat the Qing army.
Holding on until reinforcements arrive is too optimistic, and the result will be total annihilation.
A sharp whistle was blown by Tang Ji, and then clouds of white smoke erupted next to him. The muskets completed a volley. The soldiers paused, and another row of soldiers stepped up, passed them, raised their guns again, and
There was another volley amid the sharp whistle, sweeping across the enemies in front.
Formulaic fighting style, rich firepower coverage. After the siege battles of Gaozhou, Xinhui, and Guangzhou, the Ming army became more and more proficient, like a machine, accurately performing operations, rolling forward, using lead bullets and
Bayonets push out the blood-stained path to victory.
"Those who surrender will not be killed, but those who abandon their weapons will avoid death!"
Cries of persuasion to surrender and cries of killing alternated. During the siege, the surrendering troops and generals of Guangdong began to politically induce surrender to the Qing troops in the city. At this time, accompanied by a powerful offensive and irreversible failure, the effect was even more obvious.
In the era of cold weapons, prisoners were the best source to expand the army. The conflict between Chu and Han, and the confrontation between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu. Most of the soldiers lost on the front line were supplemented by the Qi people captured by Han Xin. Although Zhu Yongxing was somewhat unwilling, he still
A relatively flexible prisoner policy was adopted, only the culprits were eliminated, and clemency was granted, so as to never eliminate the possibility of the Qing Dynasty officers and soldiers surrendering and responding.
Did the Qing officials have to be forced to commit suicide in defeat rather than surrender? Did they have to let many avoidable battles turn into brutal and bloody battles? The answer is no. The Qing government was unethical and many officers and soldiers were unwilling to sacrifice their lives for it.
It can be fought over. The scope of severe punishment should be as small as possible to set an example. This is not only a display of magnanimity, but also a good move to maximize the differentiation of the Han forces within the Qing Dynasty and not to repeat the stupid actions of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
The battle in the city continued, and the weakness of the complicated army in the city finally broke out. The Qing army of Fujian Province that reinforced Guangdong included Geng Fan's troops, Governor Li Shutai's troops, and other troops put together. There were also original troops in the city.
When the defeat was certain, these temporarily assembled armies inevitably split up, fought with different minds, and scrambled for the first place after defeat.
The first people to surrender and fight back were the original defenders of Meizhou. After all, those outside the city in the past few days were all Qing soldiers and generals from Guangdong who persuaded them to surrender. This had the greatest impact on the Meizhou defenders, who were also part of the Guangdong army. The internal chaos caused the Qing army to
There was a gap in the defense, and the Ming army was gradually divided, and the defeat suddenly accelerated.
The east city gate suddenly opened. A group of Qing soldiers refused to sit still and wait for death in the city. They wanted to break out under the leadership of Geng Fan's subordinates Bai Xianzhong and Xu Wanyao. In front of this group of Qing soldiers, there were trenches, especially in the city.
The half-moon-shaped fortifications at the door became an insurmountable obstacle for them.
Muskets, the Qing army that broke out of the encirclement were no strangers to this weapon. What was strange to them was that the Ming army’s flintlock guns had a rate of fire and power that far exceeded that of matchlocks. The gunshots kept ringing, row after row, continuously, but
It was five hundred musketeers who relied on the parapet trench to firmly block thousands of Qing troops. With blood splattering and screams of killing, the Qing troops desperately rushed into the trench, but hordes of Qing troops flew head-on.
The grenades caused them to face more heavy casualties.
The Ming army attacked the city with overwhelming force, but it concealed their advantage of being better at positional defense. In Yunnan Province, the Ming army focused on defensive counterattacks in turning battles such as Tengchong and Yuanjiang. As for relying on trenches,
Breast wall fortifications, combined with muskets, grenades, cannons and other weapons, have considerable successful experience in carrying out tough defensive operations.
In the Ming army that followed Zhu Yong's exciting battle in Yunnan Province to turn the situation around, many people were promoted to middle and lower-level officers, dispersed to various armies, and passed on their successful experiences. In addition, the transportation from the Jiangwu Hall and the training of the teaching group
, successful and effective tactics can be learned and mastered quickly. Judging from the establishment of military schools, the training of officers, and strict discipline, the Ming army already has some characteristics of a modern army.
Breaking through the siege turned into self-destruction. The Qing army also realized that outside the city gate was the focus of the Ming army's defense. They hit the iron plate. Seeing that the situation was not good, Bai Xianzhong and Xu Wanyao led a small number of soldiers to separate along the city wall in the north and south directions.
Escape. Their idea is very simple. The entire siege defense line has key points, and there must be weaknesses, and the possibility of facing the city wall is obviously the greatest.
At this time, they deeply regretted choosing the city gate to break out. If they suddenly lowered the city from a distance away from the city gate, the Ming army would definitely be caught off guard. (To be continued...)
