Sixty-one friends, the acquisition of territory and power is not free.
Su is unhappy.
The reason is very simple.
He saw the weakness of the Jin people, and he also saw the strength of the landlords and squirees.
Along the way, the powerful force and control of the landlords and gentry were fully visible. The medium-sized landlords' home could pull up thousands of people to form an army to participate in the rebellion.
Not to mention the combat effectiveness and organizational level, they still have the number of people. In the war in the era of cold weapons, the advantage of numbers will always be the biggest advantage.
Compared to the Jin people, they are indeed a more terrifying force. If they all rise up to resist, the Jin Kingdom will soon be destroyed.
If Su Yonglin only wants to oppose this group of people with his current strength, it is definitely a lantern in the toilet.
So he gave up the idea of rectifying Tai'an Prefecture and then rectifying Zibo Prefecture and Jinan Prefecture.
On the one hand, there is indeed not enough manpower, and political education takes time.
On the other hand, it is indeed not the time to conflict with these people at this stage.
The landlords and gentry in Tai'an Prefecture did not respond to his attack and had no credit. It was reasonable to accept the cold reception, but the landlords and gentry in Zibo and Jinan Prefecture actively raised an army to respond. If you have credit, it would be unreasonable not to give them some benefits.
So he decided to temporarily follow Zhao Kaishan's approach and temporarily use traditional methods to calm people's hearts and stabilize the situation.
The so-called traditional methods are probably the "election-making" method after the founding emperor defeated the main powerful enemies.
First let the locals take charge of the locals and hand over the power to them. When the situation is stable, then send migrant officials to manage the local area and complete a smooth transition.
It is the so-called change of the king's flag on the city wall, and everyone changes their skin, the officials do it and the money is taken.
Of course, the liberated officials still share the real power with the main local landlords and gentry. Everyone happily ate the people and bullied the rich peasants and small landlords.
Su Yonglin followed suit. In order to win the support of the landlords and gentry, expand the number of the Restoration Army, and facilitate his future exploration of the map, he fully utilized the essence of the proclamation.
After conquering Zhangqiu County and expelling the Jin people, he appointed Qin Yuanzhi, the head of the Qin family, the most famous "hero" in Zhangqiu, as the magistrate of Zhangqiu County, and directly handed Zhangqiu County to the Qin family.
The Qin family led the other major landlords and gentry to divide the fruits of victory in the entire Zhangqiu County - the wealth and power left behind by the Jin people after they were expelled.
Qin was overjoyed.
After conquering Jiyang County, he appointed Ma Houde, the leader of Jiyang County landlords and gentry, as the magistrate of Jiyang County, and asked him to manage Jiyang County.
That is to say, let the Ma family take the lead, and the qualified landlords and squires sit down together according to their respective strengths and slowly divide their power.
Ma was also overjoyed.
They can do whatever they want under the banner of the Restoration Army.
Su Yonglin's request for them was to obey orders and maintain consistency in military terms and to adhere to the leadership of the Restoration Army politically.
Others can be discussed, such as economic issues.
Such practices also appeared throughout Jinan. After the Jin people in Jinan were expelled, the power of the landlords and gentry completely enveloped the entire Jinan Prefecture.
Not only that, the Han officials who had not escaped from the government office also transformed into joining the Liberation Army and became "uprising officials" under the Liberation Army. They changed their clothes and did whatever they should do.
Su Yonglin did not object to this point, because there was indeed such a need objectively. The group of rude members of the Restoration Army did not organize them, and it was not easy to manage the town without these old officials.
And everyone just wants to [expel the Hu Guan]. As long as these Han officials announce their separation from the Jin Kingdom and return to "China" in public, everything will be easy to arrange.
So they just changed a slogan and changed to respect Zhao Kaishan as the nominal supreme ruler, so they could continue to be officials, and their property and family were not damaged at all, and the messed up things they did in the past were also written off.
The landlords and squire and the old bureaucrats were very happy about this.
Although Su Yonglin is not old and much younger than them, they all call him "Su Shuai", as if he is the main one, and obeys his orders. They all say that they will follow Su Shuai closely in the future and will never betray him.
This group of people also know the identity of Su Yonglin as the commander-in-chief of the Western Route Army.
They all knew that Su Yonglin was one of the main military commanders of the Restoration Army, one of the three giants, and the "elder" of the uprising, so they all felt that they had embraced themselves and could continue to move forward with Su Yonglin in the future, and gain benefits far beyond the previous ones under the rule of the Restoration Army.
Su Yonglin gave them so many benefits, and let them do whatever they want, of course they should repay their kindness.
Giving thanks is just the most basic thing.
Uniting together with Su Yonglin to become his subordinates, providing him with force and political support, and following his pace is their best practice to repay his kindness.
In fact, this group of people did the same.
Both of them came to Su Yonglin and became familiar with him. Some people even noticed that Su Yonglin had not married yet, so they planned to carefully select a suitable wife for him.
For example, the Qin family and the Ma family have this idea, and they have also asked Su Yonglin about this.
"Su Shuai has not married yet and has no children. It seems inappropriate. I wonder if Su Shuai wants to marry a wife?"
I asked clearly, and there was no roundabout way.
Su Yonglin's response to this is also very clear.
"I have always respected Huo Qubing as the leader. Therefore, the Huns have not yet been destroyed, so why should the family be the one?"
One sentence ended everyone's little thoughts, but as one of the three giants in the large group of the Restoration Army, some things are inevitable.
At first, Su Yonglin did not think that he would become a self-contained group to fight for power and profit among the Restoration Army, and that was not his goal.
However, as the number of conquered cities and land increased and prestige increased, naturally, someone surrounded him, became his subordinates, and became a temporary community of interests with him, pushing him forward.
This is true for me, and so should Sun Ziyi and Zhao Kaishan.
In this way, the internal struggle between the three major factions of the Restoration Army should be near.
Su Yonglin predicted this way.
The vigorous development of the Restoration Army and the tragic defeat of the Jin people in Shandong made the landlords and gentry in Shandong selectively ignore the fact that the main force of the Jin army has not yet been destroyed.
They just felt that the Jin people had fallen, they were soft persimmons, and they were easy to pinch, but how could they know what Su was thinking?
Mr. Su just treated these people as cannon fodder, pulled them up, and let them and Jin Ting both suffer losses.
These people actually have no way out.
If the opponent is Wanyan Yong, Su Yonglin has to try every means to bind this group of people so that they will not turn against them at the speed of light.
But his opponent is Wanyan Liang, the irritable brother, so he is not worried.
Jin Ting actually has an advantage.
As long as the rebels realize this, Jin Ting's pardon edict can cause the rebels to explode on the spot.
This is how Wanyan Yong dismantled the Shandong rebel army without bloodshed, but if it were Wanyan Liang, Su Yonglin would be willing to take a gamble.
It is bet that this irritable man is definitely more willing to use the army to quell the rebellion rather than use pardon edicts to divide the rebels.
He also wanted to destroy the humanitarian destiny of those who violated him and show his absolute majesty, rather than to differentiate and show his tolerance and generosity.
In this way, Su's goal was achieved.
Borrowing Wanyan Liang's hand.
Friends, the acquisition of territory and power is not free.
Looking at the "Rebel Generals" who were drunk at the banquet, Su, who was sitting at the top, happily picked up the wine glass and sipped the wine in the glass in small sips.
Chapter completed!
