Chapter 251 Shocked Yunnan People

(Please subscribe!)

In order to speed up the pace of recovering Yunnan, Huang Qing did not station all his troops in Kunming. Yunnan as a whole was still very large!

He continuously dispatched troops, usually a battalion of the Guards, leading several troops of the Burmese garrison and Siamese servants, to form the Holy Ming Alliance coalition. They fought when encountering resistance and continuously recovered state capitals across Yunnan.

At this time, there were only a very small number of Han Eight Banners troops in Yunnan, and they were too weak to fight. If they encountered the Ming army, they would be defeated by a hasty contact.

Moreover, if the Ming Dynasty did not kill the Green Camp prisoners, whose ancestors did not surrender from the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, as long as they can survive, they will not be miserable.

Huang Qing's attitude towards the surrendered Han generals was very clear, which was to hand over their military power, then come to Kunming City, express their loyalty to Huang Qing's headquarters, and wait for reorganization.

It's okay if you don't agree to surrender like this, then the Ming army will ruthlessly defeat this army.

All of this was actually ordered by Zhu Kezang under Huang Qing's instructions. For the Ming Dynasty, the generals and troops who knew how to fight again and again were not as good as the Ming Dynasty army that was ten times smaller in number, but loyal, capable of fighting, and trained by himself.

After leading the Ming Guards for a period of time, Huang Qing also saw the key, so he insisted on implementing Zhu Kezang's instructions. The newly surrendered Qing army temporarily demobilized its troops and restored the nationalist army before sending them to the battlefield.

The whole of Yunnan was like a Ming whirlwind. The Tatar rule in Yunnan was actually on the verge of death. As the sun set over the western mountains, the coalition forces of the Holy Ming Alliance collapsed with a slight kick.

In the past few decades, the three forces of Li Dingguo, Wu Sangui, and the Qing army had caused trouble in Yunnan, turning it into a place of four wars. The Qing army had just taken over Yunnan from Wu Sangui's grandson Wu Shifan.

What they knew was that the taxes previously paid to Ming Dynasty were quite heavy.

Sure enough, a lion leading a group of sheep is more terrifying than a sheep leading a group of lions.

To whom you pay taxes is not to pay.

"Master, it turns out that there really is an army in this world that doesn't steal the people's food!"

"I hope they are not just showing off!" The old man in Hua Zhuzhu's family has experienced troubled times and knows what is going on.

New notices were posted outside the Yamen, and the commander of the Guards also found local scholars to stand by the notice board and read to people.

Chengjiang Mansion, also known as Yuxi in later generations, after the arrival of more than 5,000 soldiers and horses of the Holy Ming Alliance, the garrison here opened the city and surrendered.

Before entering Yunnan, these troops were warned that they would not mess with the people of Yunnan.

After hearing this, the old man in Hua Zhuzi's family also said: "In the past, I only heard about Grandpa Qi's Qi's army from the storyteller's mouth, and they had such military discipline!"

I want to know what these soldiers are doing when they enter the village.

And in order to take care of the common people, the language of these notices is in vernacular, so that everyone can understand it.

The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty cares about all the people in the world and is determined to overthrow the Tartars and regain China. At the same time, the Ming army passes through the border to protect the border and the people, without disturbing or harming the people.

These notices were uniformly distributed to every state, county, town and even village. Zhu Kezang had drafted them himself before Huang Qing attacked Yunnan.

"I feel like this Ming Dynasty army is quite good. It doesn't harass us, and it's still majestic!" Hua Zhuzhu took a fancy to the equipment of the Guards.

For ordinary people, living a difficult life is already a luxury. They have never read a book and they don't know what national justice is.

However, this time the Ming army is the Ming army of the new Ming Dynasty.

Seeing the Ming Dynasty's well-organized troops standing beside the grain without even taking a glance, the people were shocked.

In the county seat of Chengjiang Prefecture, there are relatively neat columns arranged. The Ming Dynasty Guards, wearing more like ornate breastplates, lead a group of Siamese and Burmese patrolling the streets.

In fact, not only the Qing army, but also the Ming army did harm to this land. Everyone regarded the army as evil and kept away from it.

Under the influence of the concept of loyalty to the emperor and love for the people, the soldiers of the Guards even shouted: "Folks, remember to collect food!"

Many people think so, and many people in the nearby villages think so. As long as they are not unable to survive, they will be very honest.

The people in Chengjiang Prefecture are very frightened.

However, when they hid, they discovered that many people had forgotten to harvest the autumn crops they were drying!

There is also wild boar meat that was hunted earlier and hung to dry by the door!

The people hiding in their homes sighed secretly, the whole family of soldiers and bandits must be gone!

As a result, under the strong restraint of the Ming Dynasty Guards, no Burmese or Siamese dared to touch the food of the people on the ground.

The "Holy Ming Alliance Military Discipline" is mainly aimed at the soldiers of the slave countries and some foreign garrison troops in the annexed areas. It is very strict. If there is any harassment of civilians without the consent of the Guards, they will all be punished.

Now that the Tatars are here, they pay heavier taxes, and it doesn't matter if they get an ugly haircut, but they can still survive.

"Order Burmese and Siamese officers to strictly control their soldiers and must thoroughly implement the "Holy Ming Alliance Military Discipline" formulated by the emperor. If any violation of discipline occurs, they will be beheaded."

Hua Zhuzhu, a Yunnan native who was hiding at home, looked at the direction in which the army was leaving and nodded: "Yes! There are actually armies in this world that don't rob the people!"

But even so, when they saw the Ming army entering the village, they quickly locked their wives and children in the house, and then looked out through the crack in the door.

The meaning of the notice is very clear, which is to clarify to the people of Yunnan's various prefectures that the Ming Dynasty has returned and will never give up the land of China. The Qing Dynasty is unpopular and oppresses the children of the Han family, making the people of Yunnan miserable and miserable.

The local people looked at the leading Guards curiously. In terms of temperament and feeling, they were completely different from the previous Ming army.

Under the leadership of the Guards, the army composed mainly of Burmese and Siamese people actually advanced rapidly in Yunnan, although there were sometimes many casualties.

But in fact, ordinary people have their own scales in their hearts. They don't look at what you say, but what you do.

The Chinese people are so tolerant. As long as they have a mouthful of food to eat, they will not rebel easily.

When the Qing army came, they committed atrocities. In the era of war, people had no excuse. Burning, killing, and looting were commonplace.

It seems to be just a casual notice, but it contains words of great significance that can be read through the back of the paper. It can almost be regarded as Zhu Kezang's mission to restore the country.

But the Guards are not just showing off, this military discipline is just their daily routine. They will help the common people kill the wild boars that destroy the fields on the spot. When they encounter those who are in urgent need of treatment, they will also ask military doctors to treat them.

Through all these factors, Ming Dynasty regained its popularity in Yunnan.

People in Yunnan who have seen the Guards all think that such a powerful army may be able to defeat the tyrannical Tatar army, and may really be able to take back the world. In that case, everyone will not need to grow braids.

All parts of Yunnan are being swept away by wind and clouds, and the Battle of Kunming is coming to an end.
