258. The Qingyang starts, and the root is followed.

Chen Qing's first reaction was not joy, but alertness.

He did not unconditionally believe Zhang Zhixiang because Zhang Zhixiang got married and Wang Jiangque. Although he had done many things according to Wang Jiangque's plan over the years, this does not mean that he has no opinion.

At least he was the leader of the rebel army who had repelled the imperial court three times and was the grass-headed king who came out of the battlefield.

He had to be responsible for the more than 10,000 people of the rebel army and for the more than 100,000 people in Qinyuan.

He knew very well that his identities were thieves.

If Jiajing was designing it, it would be impossible for them to be killed collectively even if they were sent to the capital...

"We are traitors, how can we serve the king?"

Chen Qing was not active and even pushed him back. Zhang Zhixiang understood what he was worried about. Zhang Zhixiang did not explain directly, but asked: "Can the rebel army stay safe forever if they occupy the Qinyuan territory?"

"The local garrison cannot suppress Qinyuan because Qinyuan has little influence, and there is no need to go through a lot of trouble."

"If you occupy Shangdang like you in Mawuzhai, overlooking Zhongzhou, elbow-arm Hedong, and the local governments are restless, they will definitely send troops to suppress the enemy. You can fight back once, twice, but you can't fight back the enemy, the third and fourth time."

"Qinyuan is in a dangerous terrain, but it is also a desperate situation. Once surrounded, there is no place to escape."

"How much material resources do you have in a county?"

"The army blocks, and at most three or five months, you will be defeated."

"It's more despicable. Build a dam upstream of Qinyuan. Once the water source is broken, how long can you last? Blast the dike and release water, so that Qinyuan will not be affected by disaster?"

"As I said."

"The imperial court only needs to send one general and lead 30,000 troops to wipe out Qinyuan."

"I know the fighting will of Qinyuan, but you should also see the changes in the imperial court's capital. Now Qiu Luan is leading the army to attack Annan, and the war situation has completely changed."

"The master of the country still needs to understand that it is not difficult for the court to wipe out Qinyuan."

Chen Qing's face changed, and the other leaders were not feeling well. They only had one county and did not have room to move. Unless they started to mess up Shanxi first, if they could seize the land of a province, the situation would be very different.

But in this way, the key is that the court wants to equalize the land and exempt taxes. Is it true or false?

If the court really had a balance of land, who would have followed the thief?

They have come over the years and understand these things very well. The truth is so clear that the people don’t understand them either. They only know that equal fields are the biggest thing.

Several leaders were frowning and didn't know how to respond, but Wang Jiangque retorted: "You are not authentic, Qinyuan is not that easy to wipe out."

"If the imperial court has a large army, we will definitely know the news."

"Although we have not expanded out over the years, it does not mean that we have not infiltrated and developed. We have sufficient action plans and preparations. Within ten days, we can conquer Anze, Xiagu County, occupy Huozhou, and go north to the spirit stones to block the Taiyuan army and then go south with the main force. As long as we seize Jinyang before the imperial army arrives, we can fight against the imperial army with one prefecture, one prefecture, ten counties."

"The chances of victory may not be high, but it is absolutely no problem to delay the war for two or three years."

"But the court can't afford to delay it."

Zhang Zhixiang's eyes moved slightly and immediately said, "The court cannot afford to delay it because we are going to war with the gentry and merchants. Do we have to fight to the death, and then those gentry and merchants will continue to maintain their exploitative rule?"

Wang Jiangque said: "How can the court ensure that this is not a plan to invite you into the trap?"

Zhang Zhixiang said: "The Ministry of Rites will issue an identity to all students and announce the enrollment list of this batch of Beijing University. The court issued a debt of 50 million taels to build Beijing University, and will not ruin its reputation when it was first established."

"No matter how much a battle is fought, it will not cost 50 million taels."

"What do you think?"

The two of them went back and forth, and they finished speaking. Chen Qing had to smile bitterly. He looked around and looked at Wang Jiangque again, wanted to speak but stopped. Finally, he sighed and said, "Can we hold a meeting and vote?"

Zhang Zhixiang said confidently: "Please."

...

Although it is a small meeting to discuss big things and small things, when the decision-making level has no way to grasp it, it can only allow everyone to participate in discussing how to make a decision.

Qingyang Party has a complete organizational structure.

The five leaders of the rebel army can only be regarded as fifth of the 21 members of the "Executive Committee", and the other 16 members are represented by professional representatives such as farmers, workers, teachers, doctors and other professionals and virtuous people.

The Executive Committee is Qinyuan’s decision-making team, and Wang Jiangque is the president.

Because Qinyuan has only more than 100,000 people, the organizational structure is relatively flat and it is also as streamlined as possible. Zhang Zhixiang told Wang Jiangque that there was a Nanjie village in the future. He himself had a population of 50,000. He merged several surrounding villages, stored 150,000 migrants and managed 200,000 people, but only one village committee...

The daily operation of Nanjie Village is handled by a property company.

The low cost of the system there is something that has never been seen since ancient times. Simplifying military and government is a very critical policy.

Therefore, the only administrative agency in Qinyuan is the executive committee, and the number of soldiers in the uprising army has been greatly reduced. Qinyuan has only a population of 120,000, and it is impossible to supply 10,000 or 20,000 full-time soldiers.

Therefore, the regular army in Qinyuan only retained one battalion and three thousand people.

Then the militia system of three battalions was retained, and all adults were trained in military affairs to ensure that all the people could be put into battle at critical moments.

Qinyuan can be said to be full of martial ethics.

Chen Qing held a plenary meeting, and more than a thousand members of the Qingyang Party attended the meeting and had a fierce discussion on the issue of "going to Beijing to serve the king".

To Chen Qing and the others expected, the young people actually believed in Jiajing very much...

Qinyuan is not a closed peach blossom land. It pays great attention to the collection of external information. Although they have not gone out, major events will be published into newspapers. Major newspaper columns and newsstands are open for free, and young people have the habit of reading newspapers.

They said: "The Emperor Jiajing is still very progressive."

"Whether we should overthrow the imperial system is a matter in the future. Jiajing's determination to equalize the land and exempt the tax. This will not be false. His actions have completely offended the landlord and literati to death."

"We are his natural allies."

"Yes, no matter how the emperor is, he is only a person, and the officials are a whole class, so I will deal with them first."

"After all, the founding of the Ming Dynasty was orthodox. If we could obtain the legal principles of the Ming Dynasty, it would be better than overthrowing them all."

"How can we look forward to the forefront of Jiajing's countryside?"

"Yes, let's go to the capital!"

"We can't go all of them. Some people go and some scatter into the countryside. If the court dares to take action, we will destroy the Ming Dynasty!"

They are confident and outspoken, sincere and fearless.
