Chapter 83: Shave the Enclosure
(Please recommend votes and support! Thanks to book friend Xue Xi Tianxin, book friend He Xian, book friend was not the 100 coin reward the day before yesterday~)
It's great to be alive!
Chen Shuncai served another bowl of fragrant white rice and swallowed it voraciously.
When he came back from Texas, he had to eat 100% full every day. He seemed to be sorry for himself if he didn't do this.
The shadow left on him by the Battle of Dezhou was too deep. The invincible Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty were helpless in the face of Dezhou City. Hundreds of elite armored soldiers were damaged here, and Chen Shuncai's best-in-class bannermen among the Han army's red flags were also seriously injured.
Fortunately, Chen Shuncai himself was unscathed. This was thanks to his perfect ability to pretend to be dead. Before entering the pass, the Eight Banners Army had many battles with the Guanning Army in Liaoxi. Dalinghe, Jinzhou, Ningyuan...
At that time, Chen Shuncai had not raised the flag, but was just a lowly Baoyi Aha. In the battle, he was driven to fill the trench like other Baoyi slaves.
The other Baoyi slaves rushed forward foolishly, and most of them were shot to death by the Ming army. Of course, Chen Shuncai didn't want to die. Although he lived a very hard life, he often had to be whipped by his master if he couldn't eat enough or wear warmth, he was still alive.
Once a person dies, nothing will be gone.
So Chen Shun learned to pretend to be dead.
At first, he was not very proficient, but with the accumulation of experience, he had become a veteran. Not only could the Ming army not find it, but the Manchurian soldiers who were supervising the battle could not be noticed.
Regardless of how many Baoyi Aha died in each battle, Chen Shuncheng was able to survive miraculously.
It is precisely because of this that he was "full of merit" and was carried into a flag and became a member of the Han army's red flag.
From the moment Prince Dorgon brought everyone into Beijing, Chen Shuncai felt that a good life had come and never thought that there would be such a tragic defeat in the Battle of Texas.
This is the closest time Chen Shuncai has died.
A flowing arrow shot outside his right eye. At that time, Chen Shun was pretending to be dead. If the flowing arrow deviated a little further, his life would be explained.
Alas, the Ming army resisted so tenaciously, and if they continue to fight like this, when will it be the end?
Chen Shuncai is no longer the one who had nothing to do before. Now he has his own house, gold and silver, and slave, but the only thing he lacks is a woman.
I originally wanted to go to Shandong to plunder one, but I never thought that I would be in a state of shame as soon as I arrived in Texas.
Forget it, what do you think of doing so much? It’s better to eat, drink, sleep and be honest.
After thinking it through, Chen Shun ate the rice in his mouth.
He was just as he was eating, when he heard the sound of horse hooves outside the house.
The house he was assigned to face the street, so he heard it very clearly.
Chen Shun was curious and put down his bowls and chopsticks and walked into the yard.
The Baoyi slave Wu Gouzi bent her waist and leaned closer and said, "Master, how are you eating well?"
Chen Shun waved his hand and said, "What happened outside? Why are so many people running horses?"
"Ah, the master doesn't know yet? It was the court who issued a hair shaving order."
A headshot order?
Chen Shuncai was slightly stunned.
As a native of Liaodong Han, Chen Shuncai was certainly familiar with shaving his head. Manchu men would shave their heads, and their entire head was shaved with slimness, leaving only a small braid on the back of their heads, which were thin and could pass through the eyes of copper coins, so it was also called the rat tail of gold coins.
During the reign of the Nurhaci, Lao Khan strictly implemented the hair shaving order in Liaodong. Not only did Manchus have to shave his head, but the Han people also had to shave their heads under his control. Chen Shun was a coat slave and naturally would not hesitate at all, but many of the Han people in Liaodong resisted, and these people were all chopped off their heads and threw them to feed them to dogs.
However, after the Eight Banners Army entered Beijing, it did not immediately implement the headshot order of the Liaodong period, because Grand Secretary Hong Chengchou was worried that it would cause resistance from the people in the Jifu area.
After all, the Qing Dynasty has not won the world yet, so it would be bad if the attitude is too tough and the fire in the backyard will catch a fire.
Seeing Chen Shuncai's face was confused, Wu Ergou said with a charming smile: "When I just went out to buy vegetables, I saw a notice posted on the walls of the street corner. The court officially implemented a hair shaving order in Jifu, Henan. It is said that Prince Dorgon believed that someone from Jifu revealed military information to the pseudo-Ming Dynasty, which led to the defeat of Dezhou. Prince Dorgon was angry and wanted to implement a hair shaving order."
Chen Shun nodded and walked to the front of the gate in two steps in three steps.
After walking a hundred steps, he saw the notice posted on the walls of the street corner.
The notice also reads in Manchu and Chinese: "No matter whether the officials or the people, they will be shaved within ten days, with their hair slimmed and their braids hanging, and those who do not follow suit will be beheaded."
Chen Shun nodded, thinking that this should have been the case long ago. Not only did he have to shave his head, but he also had to change his clothes. Since he became the Shun people of the Qing Dynasty, his clothes and clothes should naturally follow the rules of this dynasty.
"Master, please look at this notice again."
Wu Gouzi clicked at the lower right side of the notice, and Chen Shun glanced at it.
It's time to enclose the land!
No wonder there are so many cavalry in the city! Maybe they want to leave the city and occupy land.
Of course, this kind of thing is to get up early or late. If it is too late, all the fertile land will be occupied by people, and those who can get up late will be inferior land.
Chen Shuncai was not very concerned about this. After all, the notice was very clear that only Manchurian bannermen were allowed to enclose land, but nothing happened to the Han army bannermen.
But one thing is certain, there has been chaos inside and outside Beijing during this period.
"I don't wander outside these days, and I deserve it if I'm treated as a spy and I'm worthy of it."
The court issued two orders for the headshaving order and the land enclosure order, which was enough to show that Prince Dorgon was really furious.
Since the prince believes that there are spies in Beijing, there will inevitably be some cleaning.
Chen Shuncai didn't want his only slave to be chopped off his head as a spy, so he deliberately reminded him.
Wu Gouzi nodded quickly and smiled charmingly: "What my master taught me is that I remember it. I will buy all the rice, flour, vegetables and fruits of this month, and no longer go out easily."
"Yes, go and buy more rice and flour, and it may be better if you make it a few days later, the price will increase!"
If such a big thing happens, the rice price in the capital will definitely rise. Although Chen Shuncai is not short of money, he does not want to cut his losses in vain.
I still remember that in Liaodong, rice prices could rise dozens of times a month, and even if I hold a handful of silver in my hand, I can’t buy rice.
Although Beijing has enough food to stock, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will interfere in the event of a big defeat.

Nanjing, Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Cilang was in a very complicated mood when he looked at the secret memo delivered by the Military Information Department of the Inner Factory.
The Qing court still implemented the hair shaving order.
In original history, the Qing Dynasty implemented the large-scale implementation of the hair shaving order after destroying the Hongguang regime of the Southern Ming Dynasty and basically controlling the whole country. However, it was much ahead of schedule in this time and space.
When the Qing Dynasty shaved her hair and changed her clothes, it was promoted, "Money rat tail is the elegant politics of the new dynasty; the crown is wide and the belt is actually the bad rules for the destruction of the country."
There is also a saying that "leaving your head without leaving your hair, leaving your hair without leaving your head".
In the original history, this decree aroused strong resistance from the people, and passionate men spontaneously resisted the Qing Dynasty and fought a battle to defend China's clothing and hats.
People's hearts are available!
This is an excellent opportunity for Zhu Cixuan and Daming.
