“Newspapers are being sold, newspapers are being sold, the freshly released Daming Daily is on the way, don’t miss it if you pass by!”
…
On various streets in Beijing, newsboys waved newspapers and shouted loudly.
Daming Daily has been around for two years. From the initial curiosity to seeking, to becoming accustomed to it, and then to habit, sales have stabilized.
Those who have a wealthy family will basically buy one. Although scholars cannot buy it every day, several like-minded classmates will buy one together. After all, some of the policies and attitudes of the court will be printed on it.
Ordinary people only buy one when there is big news.
"Big news, the imperial court wants to seek slaves from the north!"
Just when the pedestrians were still calm, the newsboy's voice came out again, making the pedestrians a little stunned and full of doubts on their faces.
"Kid, what did you just say? Did Jian Nubei escape? How could he escape?"
"Uncle, it's not that Jiannu didn't flee north, it's that the imperial court wants to pursue Jiannu northward."
"Beijing seeks to build slaves? Nonsense..."
"Uncle, the Daming Daily has published an article calling for the establishment of slaves in the north. Why are you talking nonsense? Just buy a newspaper and read it and you will know!"
"Hey...boy, you'd better not lie to me, or I'll beat your ass to pieces. Give me a share, and I'll reward you with the rest!"
"Give me one too!"
"Give me what you have, I've got today's newspaper for you!"
…
After the pedestrians reacted, their faces were full of eagerness, and they took out copper coins and broken silver and threw them to the newsboy.
Everyone who got the newspaper gathered together and flipped to the front page of Daming Daily with ease.
"The Northern Proposal to Build Slaves" - the cabinet document, this is the title, it is simple and easy to understand.
Everyone's breathing was stagnant, and the pupils of their eyes tightened.
"Therefore, the emperor's imperial edict reads: Nurhachi was originally the commander of the left guard capital of Jianzhou in the Ming Dynasty. He was comforted by the emperor's grace. However, he rebelled and acted arrogantly. He openly resisted the imperial power, stole armor and raised troops, divided the county and cut off the territory. network...
Sacrificing the Seven Hateful Heavens is ridiculous, a political excuse, and starting an army to rebel. It is both legitimate and legitimate...
…
The Mongolians and Jurchens have been favored by the country in this life. Although they are not Chinese races, they have been raised no different. Now when the slaves are rebelling, they have no thought of serving the country...
…
If Fusang surrenders, cede territory, pay indemnity, and pay tribute as a vassal. If he continues to aid Zhou in his crimes, he will surely set foot on the country one day and destroy his entire clan.
If there is a surrender among Jiannu, all the corpses of Paul and others will be left. If there are surrenders among the Mongolian tribes, let the past be forgotten. Those who are stubborn will not be killed without mercy.
The story of the restoration of Taizu and Chengzu determines the prosperity of all generations! "
…
call……
call……
At this moment, the street seemed to be still. There were no noisy sounds, only the sound of people breathing more and more rapidly.
It’s hard to describe how Jiannu brought Ming Dynasty to its knees, especially last year. If the emperor hadn’t figured it out in advance, Jiannu might have invaded Beijing.
All the people from Longjing Pass to Beijing City had their families destroyed.
Several places in Liaodong were occupied, tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians died, and it was a naked shame to shave their heads and change clothes.
"Hahaha, it turns out to be true. The imperial court is really going to crusade against Jiannu. After waiting for so many years, we finally waited for this moment."
"This is a well-written and heart-wrenching apology. Jian Nu is a shameless brat and an ungrateful white-eyed wolf!"
"After all, it was written by a scholar. If it were me, I would just say, choose a day to go north to build slaves, and kill wherever you go!"
"Liaodong was originally a prosperous land where people from the fields were rich in grains, people from the lake were rich in fresh food, people from the mountains were rich in materials, people from the sea were rich in goods, families had enough food, and everyone was full of people, and the goods were bribed and envied.
However, after Nurhaci occupied the country, he was unable to do anything but was good at bullying. The population dropped sharply, the countryside was deserted, the houses were dilapidated, all industries were in ruins, and famines were frequent. "
"The Seven Great Hatreds of Sacrificing Heaven are simply ridiculous. They use strong words to disguise their naked ambitions as grievances and blood feuds. They are actually an excuse for their cavalry. They simply want to be a bitch and build a memorial arch at the same time. Shameless!"
"The edict is a little unclear. When the Jiannu are to be punished, what will happen to those Han people who betrayed the Ming Dynasty and joined the Jiannu and worked for the Jiannu? In addition to the literati, there are also Han Eight Banners, craftsmen, etc. How to deal with these people ?”
"Kill without mercy. Since they have worked for the slaves, they are the dogs of the slaves. Such people deserve to be killed!"
"You can't say that. Maybe they were forced? Under the knife of the slaves, in order to survive, they took refuge in the slaves. This is understandable, right?
If it were you, under that kind of high pressure where those who obey will prosper and those who rebel will perish, would you choose to die or live? "
"Fuck you, don't talk so confidently about being greedy for life and afraid of death. No matter whether it is active or passive, it is surrender. Have you ever thought that the weapons made by craftsmen were taken into the hands of the slaves and massacred their compatriots? "
"Brother, you are very discerning. You can't be a spy sent here by the slave establishment... Military Master, Military Master, a person with a suspicious identity has been found here!"
…
Some people detailed the crimes of slavery in response to the manifesto, and the public was furious and the momentum was huge.
Most of them cried bitterly and in sorrowful voices, mostly the elderly. It was probably because their relatives were slaughtered by the slaves or their relatives joined the army and were killed by the slaves. This is hatred.
But there are also people who show a different aspect towards Bei's struggle to build slaves.
"We applaud the North's quest to establish slaves, but are we being too hasty?"
"Yes, I am also worried about this. Now the Ming Dynasty is prosperous and everything is developing for the better. The future is promising. If we wait another three to five years, it will be easy to destroy Jiannu!"
"In the Battle of Saarhu, so many troops were invested, but in the end the entire army was still wiped out. Now...hey, the emperor is still a little younger!"
"Hmph, have you forgotten the results of the Battle of Longjingguan the year before last? Or have you forgotten the results of the Battle of the Grassland last year? It took more than a year of savings to be able to destroy Chahar, cripple Ordos, and subdue Tumote. Are you still afraid of creating slaves?"
"You scholars are afraid, but we poor people are not afraid. If Your Majesty recruits troops, I will sign up to join the army immediately. Kill one to get enough money, kill two to make a profit!"
"That is, if we fight to the death, one by one, we have tens of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty, but we are still afraid of tens of thousands of slaves?"
"I didn't see the recruitment, but I did see the recruitment of laborers. It was written in the Tomorrow Daily that laborers are needed for logistics and transportation. There are only two requirements: no disability and hard work. Secondly, they must be reviewed by Lijia. I'm going... here, here …”
"Hurry up and say it, don't be pretentious about this or that, no, you just said...recruiting labor instead of conscripting labor?"
"That's the problem. It's written very clearly in the Ming Dynasty Daily. Anyone who participates in the Northern Labor Movement will be provided with food and accommodation, guaranteed to have rice for every meal, and will be exempted from taxes this year.
Two months is used as a period. If it exceeds two months, the remuneration is half a denarius per month. "
…
Huh...huh...
Everyone's breathing quickened.
