Chapter 326 Distribution (Part 2)

Chapter 326 Distribution (Part 2)

An attendant had informed Guo Ning in advance. After hearing the news, Guo Ning, who was reviewing documents, threw away his pen and paper and strode out.

The attendant who reported the news was taken aback and did not dare to stop him, so he hurriedly followed Guo Ning.

In the past few days, Guo Ning's face has always been gloomy, and even his close attendants are a little afraid...it's because of this bad thing in front of him.

More than ten days ago, in the Huang County area of ​​​​Dengzhou, there was a sudden riot among the local people. They supported a farmer named Zuo Qugui and clashed with the government. Because a considerable number of households were held hostage, the military households were caught off guard, and the families of the soldiers were killed and injured.

Even the local garrison was caught off guard and suffered a slight loss.

Ma Bao, the commander of the capital stationed in Dengzhou, immediately mobilized troops to suppress the rebellion. It took him two days to kill thirty or fifty people led by Qu Gui and arrest a group of people who were coerced to suppress the rebellion.

The Dengzhou side immediately went to Wenjunfu and won the victory.

In today's world, the relationship between officials and the people is like charcoal. People's riots and other things are not big things. What's more, Guo Ning is an outsider after all. He is based in the three states of Denglai and has introduced many refugees from all over Shandong. Therefore, the local

Conflicts and conflicts are inevitable. No matter how hard and soft Guo Ning is, and no matter how hard local officials try, it will be difficult for everyone to be convinced by a bowl of water.

Everyone in the military government understands that with the implementation of the system, conflicts among the common people, and between military households and private households, will occur from time to time, and this requires a process of adjustment.

Therefore, Ma Bao did not take this seriously. He sent the document to the military government to report his victory.

Because Guo Ning is determined to "build walls high and store grain widely", the soldiers have no visible big battles to fight in the near future, so getting some small military glory is better than nothing.

However, in the view of the military government, there is a salt field in Huang County, which is close to the port of Penglai in Dengzhou. It is also the ultimate location for the coastal roads of the three states in Denglai. The riots here are not trivial. Guo Ning attaches great importance to this, so he has the previous

The military order ordered all pass posts to take strict precautions, and Xu Jin was specially sent to find out what happened.

This time, a corruption case was discovered.

The local officials and wealthy households in Dengzhou were originally not on the same side as the field army officers sent by Guo Ning to Dengzhou. However, they actually joined forces to do evil. On the one hand, they deliberately lowered the amount of land given to farmers and occupied the excess land.

On the other hand, many refugees were directly adopted as tenants or serfs of their own families.

In three or four months, they used this method to privately allocate tens of thousands of acres of land, hundreds of households of refugees, and even the winter grain and cattle allocated by the military government to the shade households were also used by them.

I stole a lot for myself.

When they did this, they were greedy for profit and frighteningly courageous. However, most of the refugees who were resettled here were lucky enough to survive after the war, and they did not dare to resist at all.

Even if the more prestigious people among the people raised questions, they were suppressed by the local officials in charge of the military and civilians, as well as the wealthy and powerful households.

It wasn't until the spring plowing was over and the military government began to dispatch officials from the Government Affairs Department and the Recording Department to select military and civilian households to prepare for the poor households that they realized that they might not be able to hide it.

They were quite courageous. They were sure that they would be discovered sooner or later, so they simply forced the relevant people to riot, and then sent out troops to kill them. They took the opportunity to kill all the relevant people who were informed and dissatisfied.

When this situation reached Guo Ning's ears, Guo Ning became furious.

Since ancient times, official greed has been hard to avoid, and it is even more common for local wealthy people to collude with officials and treat local people as if they were meat. Guo Ning has long been mentally prepared for this. In his opinion, even if corrupt officials cannot be cured,

But if you kill the first batch, you can always get the initial effect.

Previously, when he purged the powerful and disobedient local officials in Laizhou, he took drastic measures without any scruples. Later, when he governed the local area, he mostly relied on the troops from Hebei who had been with him for a long time as the backbone. He first promoted military households to farm land to eclipse the original government offices.

.

The results of it?

How long has it been? Has there been a problem with the officers of the field army? It has only been a few months of peaceful life. I have forgotten the difficulty of not having a good meal, and the hard work of having my head tied to my belt. I have turned to work with

Are those people who care about the common people standing together?

Guo Ning originally wanted to rush to Huang County to deal with the matter in person, but was persuaded by his subordinates to stop.

On the same day, he took the golden sword he carried with him and asked Zhao Jue to gallop to Huang County with the sword. He scolded Xu Jin, a member of the Recording Department, for not fulfilling his role as eyes and ears and allowing the jackals and rats below to run rampant.

Zhao Jue and Xu Jin worked together to investigate and capture all these bastards.

If one is caught and interrogated clearly, there will be no need to go through any document transfer procedures and the person will be beheaded immediately.

The reason why Guo Ning is so furious is because this situation is exactly what Ding Haijun is most afraid of right now.

Taking advantage of the period of deadly battle between the Red Coat Army and the Jin Army, Guo Ning hoped that the Dinghai Navy would use the military household system to take root in the local area and deepen its strength. The next time it goes into the battlefield, it can rely on layer-by-layer control like an arm and a finger.

Bringing into full play the full power of the military-civilian unity.

However, local wealthy households and officials colluded with each other to actually dig into Ding Haijun's corner and Guo Ning's foundation. Once this situation spreads, the entire military household system will fall into corruption from the very beginning!

And the navy's regime, from the very beginning, became a regime in which officials, gentry, wealthy people, and the common people colluded to harm the people!

What is the significance of establishing such a regime?

How can such a regime overwhelm Mongolia and reshape its future possibilities?

Such an approach is not only corruption, but also betrayal! It is a betrayal of the common ideals of Guo Ning and all soldiers!

Now that Guo Ning had made up his mind, Zhao Jue and Xu Jin acted vigorously and resolutely.

But even so, those officials and wealthy people took action after hearing the news, and fled everywhere like rats that had been disturbed. Xu Wei and others spent ten days, dispatching people to search the mountains and seas, so that all the relevant criminals were brought to justice, and

The leader of these people is not the Dengzhou magistrate, but Guo Ning's old brother in the Xijunhe camp.

Even Xu Jin didn't dare to be good at it, so he had to capture him and return to Commander Jie's Mansion to ask Guo Ning for a decision.

Guo Ning strode out angrily. After reaching the main hall, he suddenly stopped.

"Let Xu Jin come."

"yes."

The subordinates rushed out in a hurry, and Xu Jin arrived in a moment: "This guy, who fought with me in Wusha Castle back then, if he hadn't been so rough-tempered and embarrassed to be in great use, how could he be a commander now?"

"yes."

"You said he colluded with the local government, preyed on the people, incited riots, killed people and silenced them... Is the evidence conclusive?"

Xu Qi lowered his head and said: "I see there is a confession, and the file is here. The witnesses and evidence in Huang County are all under guard. If Commander Ji wants to see it, he can get it at any time."

"Okay." Guo Ning nodded and was silent for a long time.

In the past few months, Guo Ning's power has become more and more powerful, and Xu Jin has become more and more cautious in front of him. At this time, Guo Ning was not allowed to speak, and he did not dare to stand up.

It wasn't until he felt that his back was aching that he heard Guo Ning say: "I don't want to see him, just behead him and confiscate his house in accordance with the law! Do it immediately!"

"yes."

Xu Jin bowed and saluted, and when he was about to go out, Guo Ning called him again.

"Jie Shuai?"

"We all come from poor backgrounds, and we are all familiar with this kind of exploitation. So, I don't believe that he has reached this level. The Secretary of Government, the Secretary of Records, and the Dengzhou Department all commanded the Secretary, and there is no news at all.

Didn’t receive it.”

Xu Jin was sweating profusely, and the robe behind his back was instantly wet.

Guo Ning continued: "Everyone just feels that in these troubled times, it is the time to employ people. We need military men to work hard to fight, we need officials to come forward to collect food and recruits, and we need wealthy people to help stabilize the place. Everyone wants to be loved by their subordinates.

, you are counting on the people below to help you with things, so you can just turn a blind eye to some trivial matters. I hate this situation deeply! So, Lao Xu..."

Xu Jin almost jumped up: "I'm here!"

"After beheading, the head will be sent to the Government Affairs Department. The Recording Department and Dengzhou will direct the Envoy Department to three places for everyone to take a look! If you are clear-headed, think about what to do! How should you give me an explanation?

!”

"As you command!"

Guo Ning waved his hand: "Go!"

Xu Jin bowed deeply, turned around and went out.

Guo Ning stood in the courtyard between the main hall and the second hall, waiting for the crowd outside to die down. He thought that the prisoner had been taken away, so he moved forward.

He originally wanted to go back to the second hall, but after thinking about it, he walked back to the main hall.

As a result, as soon as he entered the main hall, he saw an officer and several subordinates entering the military mansion in a panic. He also looked around along the way, looking sneaky.

Guo Ning was not angry. Seeing this, he shouted: "Zhang Qian! What are you doing here!"

Only then did Zhang Qian see Guo Ning standing under the eaves of the main hall, and he knelt down with a "pop" sound.
