Seeing this situation, the commander-in-chief of the Huai army sneered proudly at the slaughter of the soldiers of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom around him. "The long-haired thief will try to sneak up on me by these nine-rate means-"

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly rushed to the Huai army, and no one could see the true face of the black shadow. This black shadow suddenly came to the front of the Huai army commander, and a punch blasted into the Huai army commander-in-chief body. The Huai army commander-in-chief was sluggish for a while, and his body fell apart.
Then the black shadow turned into a gray smoke, and all Huai troops and Taiping generals were stunned by this straight smoke. From this smoke, they seemed to see a despair hanging over their hearts.
At this time, the show suddenly exploded into a number of ferocious dead bodies. Suddenly, the Huai army suffered several casualties. Some of them were not killed, and they were more painful than falling on the ground and crying, completely losing their resistance.
A few days later …
"bang!"
At the negotiating table, Luo Bingzhang slapped the table heavily and pointed at Lin Miaoshan’s eyes angrily. "How dare you break the agreement and attack our army? Do you want to fight again!"
Luo Bingzhang refers to the fact that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom suddenly attacked the Huai army barracks a few days ago and captured thousands of Huai troops. Most of the generals were executed. The Qing court provoked Ye Helan to fly into a rage at Luo Bingzhang. When Luo Bingzhang himself came, he was full of anger and wanted to explain to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and others.
Especially Lin, Miao Shan and Luo Bingzhang, who slaughtered the most Qing troops, hated it very much.
Unexpectedly, Lin Miaoshan’s eyes were suddenly colder than Luo Bingzhang’s eyes in her eyes, and her heart felt suddenly cold as if she had fallen into hell.
Luo Bingzhang immediately canthus a smoke face dew shan shan color dare not take a look at Lin Miaoshan.
"Locke’s adult, you are making a fuss."
At this time, Hong Renxuan smiled. "Although our two sides negotiated, our positions were still hostile before the negotiations were completed. Is it true that Lord Luo didn’t even know this?"
Hearing this, Luo Bingzhang gnashed her teeth and looked at Hong Renxuan with hatred. "Well, you Taiping Heavenly Kingdom will wait and see that the court will make you pay!"
Soon after the second negotiation came to an end again, the Huai army joined forces with Xiang to storm a compound of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in order to retaliate. A few days ago, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom did not expect that the soldiers of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom were being slaughtered. Wang Lei personally arrived to slay many sixth-order masters in the Huai Army and Xiang Army, which caused the two armies to suffer heavy losses and defeat.
Later, the Japanese-Chinese Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Qing Dynasty went to the Qing court in this kind of wrangling negotiation. They were unwilling to accept the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom’s autonomy, and Wang Lei was not in a hurry to stabilize the land reform movement in the ruling areas after the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom’s rule, and discussed with a number of high-level officials, especially Li Xiucheng and Hong Renxuan, the political policy that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom could achieve. However, it is now a time of war to temporarily return the law, which is actually such a bone-breaking reform. At present, the main energy of the Taiping Army is still to focus on the direction of foreign attack
After stabilizing the rear, Wang Lei commanded elite troops to attack the city everywhere. His main purpose was to plunder the population for a long time and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom lost a large number of people in the tug-of-war of the Qing army, so Wang Lei could plunder people from other regions to fill itself.
Wang Lei and Lin Miao Shan can’t resist attacking the Qing army in front of the two powerful men. Every time, the result is almost to abandon the city and surrender.
Wang Lei, who can occupy the city, is unceremoniously and directly occupied, and some cities can also give up if the Qing army prevents the army from attacking Wang Lei. However, before giving up Wang Lei, the population in the city moved into the territory of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
He sent a political commissar to personally go into villages to preach the idea of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to farmers, and to distribute fields and pay taxes!
It’s as simple as that. Six words!
In particular, the allocation of land focuses on preaching that the temptation to divide land has been a big killer for farmers since ancient times. The biggest dream of farmers is to own a piece of land.
There is no need for too complicated slogans. Because the people don’t understand them, the Taiping Army is now a feudal army composed of a large number of illiterate mud legs, and no one knows too complicated truths. Wang Lei doesn’t expect them to tell those complicated truths at once.
Therefore, the policy of land reform has won the support of the bottom people.
The biggest resistance to land reform is the gentry and landlords from all over the country, big or small. These people are the biggest cornerstones of feudal society and hold the main wealth resources of society. Zeng Guofan Xiang Army and Li Hongzhang Huai Army were formed by the gentry from Hunan, Anhui and other places, and they were also mainly funded by the gentry from these places. Even the Qing government has gone bankrupt to support a war. These gentry can form an army and maintain the wealth of the gentry class for a long time.
This kind of wealth naturally comes from the exploitation of the peasants at the bottom all the year round, and various means of extortion are repeated in the later history. In addition, the squire also holds the mouthpiece of all localities to restrain the people morally and oppress women to maintain their lofty status. The gentry, landlords and the bottom people have high status and prestige, and the emperor is not as good as the gentry.
There is a view in later generations that the Qing Dynasty perished because the imperial examination system was abolished in 195. Although the imperial examination system was a way for the younger generation to rise, by the end of the Qing Dynasty, the imperial examination system had fallen into the game of the gentry, and the Qing court abolished the imperial examination system, which made the gentry’s younger brothers lose the way to be an official, which completely lost the support of the gentry, which led to the demise of the Qing Dynasty.
Therefore, the real enemy of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has always been the landlord and gentry class.
However, the biggest difference between the current Taiping Army and the political force that liberated China from the darkness in later generations is that they have no theoretical basis of their own, and they lack cadres who can implement these theoretical foundations.
It’s impossible to simply copy the later generations.
In this regard, Wang Lei’s practice is very simple.
Chapter one hundred and thirty-nine Than bad war
Method to solve the problem, then temporarily eliminate the problem. It’s worse than a bad way. I can’t get and I won’t let you get a way to pull everyone to the same starting line.
The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the gentry class, has to accept the courtship of the Qing court, so they dare not do anything to them. At worst, they will be separated from their property. Unexpectedly, Wang Lei directly killed the unwilling and Taiping rebels.
Wherever the army went, Wang Lei, the big landlord and gentry, was executed, and their property was confiscated, and then they were distributed to the poor people at the bottom, so that all the gentry in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom fled with the wind. This policy will soon be supported by the occupied ordinary people.
Wang Lei, an ordinary small landowner or a relatively poor gentry and literati, gave them the opportunity to follow the Taiping rebels or the terrifying.
All the starting point is that we can’t leave the Qing court with the gentry who are willing to follow them.
"Black and white is not in the route! There is no wall grass! "
This is Wang Lei’s policy of forcing ordinary gentry to choose.
The Qing court’s rule over the lower classes needed to be carried out through the gentry class, and Wang Lei’s practice was to destroy this class and frame them.
Wang Leishi has a more detailed long-term plan, but now he doesn’t have the time to make such a drastic medicine the simplest and rudest way.
"It is the most direct and flat management to implement the political structure of the Taiping Army-ruled area according to my plan."
"All fields will be paid 35% of the land rent, and the rest will be given to the peasants who have divided the land and then bear the negative tax!"
"Military field field rent twenty percent! Declare that being a soldier is the most glorious and high military social status! "
"The military field order! The military field can be awarded posthumously in the home of those who have made military achievements! One year’s rent at home will be halved and collected by 15%! "
"Xuan implements the system of honorary soldiers! Joining the army is the most glorious! All local management institutions shall be subject to militarization control by the disabled retired Taiping Army soldiers. "
Going too fast will bring about the political reform of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. What Wang Lei can do at present is to fight a bad battlefield with the Manchu political system
According to him, it was a war between feudal militarism and Manchu feudal colonialism, which was a worse war.
In private, when Hong Renxuan and others talked about long-term plans, he took out his own new plan.
"We are determined to wipe out the landlords and gentry, but we definitely don’t want to wipe out the literate. Without knowledge, the army is stupid, the rebels are bandits, and without knowledge, politics is even more short-lived. If we want to wipe out the gentry who are unwilling to follow us, we will give them a chance!"
"I advocate that Clear The Demon-controlled areas kill gentry who don’t want to go with us because we are short of time. When we train Taiping Army into a knowledgeable and intelligent army, we should first turn the other side into an army without brains and knowledge as much as possible and then compare with them."
"You can’t hurt any of the local literate gentlemen after you enter the Clear The Demon territory. You have to catch them. You are willing to come with us and give them a chance. You don’t want to come with us and let them make a choice."
"You don’t have to worry about killing a lot of teachers. Literati with backbone have long since died. Now most of those so-called literati hate selling the country and keeping others! We severely crack down on those who don’t want to go with us, but we should also give those who are willing to go with us a chance. "
"Without knowledge and culture, soldiers are stupid! The gentry and literati who are willing to come with us can die, but they must carry out ideological transformation according to the requirements of my preparation course, and then they will help the soldiers to read and write. "
When teaching Taiping rebels, Wang Lei’s words are very rough, but they can also be so rough, because in this era, even if these people have a high level of education, that is, he is not unable to give them a lot of class education classes, but he knows very well that these people can’t understand and can teach them the simplest and most understandable things.
If we really want to subdivide the Taiping Army to complete the transformation from the feudal army to the modern army and change the political structure, it will take ten years as a unit of measurement. Now the Taiping Army is still at an overall disadvantage in strategy. In an extraordinary period, he can inject some short-term effective things into the government like doping, and the resulting sequelae and adverse reactions can be regarded as "taking the least of two evils"
Wang Lei’s practice of this kind will "offend the gentry in heaven, which will lead to the gentry in all parts of the country hating the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom".
But Wang Lei was laughing.
In this era, Wang Lei’s favorite place is that the traffic is inconvenient, the information input is slow, and the humanistic response is also slow. The so-called point of the knife is not up to the tip of the nose. Whether the so-called gentry are ordinary people or the so-called gentry are just like the end of the Song Dynasty, there are many similar examples of the gentry class’s response.
The Taiping Army is about to enter a period of power contraction and rest, and it will be the gentry in the areas bordering the Taiping control area that will be painful to the society.
