Chen Mu always believed that the upper and lower levels of the Ming Dynasty were absolutely separated, and the mining tax once again deepened his ideas.

When he was a child, he wrote that the dynasty was very powerful, but when Chen Mu came here to see it with his own eyes, he felt that it was not the case. After half a year, he had never seen a Jinyiwei, and said that the supervision of the world was even more false, and he could not even control private mines and could not collect commercial taxes. Can this be called centralization?

In the Ming Dynasty, the centralized power was gathered, and the Jinyiwei supervised only officials, but there were not only officials in the world.

The first time under Chen General Banner led troops to travel, both Xiaoqi and the military officers were very excited, not to mention that after knowing that the opponent was only a group of miners, Wei Balang's small flag was open with his arms, holding the handle of the Japanese knife in his hand, revealing the Japanese belly in the cotton armor. The remaining small flags were also carrying Japanese swords and showing their arrogant attitude, for fear that others would not know that they were a group of Weiqi troops who had killed Japanese pirates.

It’s not like a group of Japanese heroes who kill Japanese, but like Japanese pirates entering the garrison!

"Everyone wears cotton armor, wears iron helmets, and take your own weapons!" Although the miners' tax resistance place is under the jurisdiction of Qingyuan, it is more than 30 miles away from Qingyuan City. While taking advantage of the road, Chen Mu, who was riding a war horse, turned around and scolded the flag army: "This time, the bullet suppression is all poor miners, poorer than you, and they do not intend to kill people. Without Chen's order, no one is allowed to use swords and guns, so that they can pay the tax smoothly and be considered to be full of their efforts!"

Previously, Bai Qi told Chen Mu that it was not the only one who went to suppress the miner. There were probably other general flags or hundreds of households to lead troops, not to mention that there were tax collectors present, and the variables were too great during the suppression process. Chen Mu must not say ugly words to the flag army first, and he imitated Bai Yuanjie to say to the flag army: "If you listen to Chen's orders, even if Shangguan blames the blame in the future, Chen will bear the responsibility and will not blame you. If someone obeys others' orders..."

Chen Mu smiled, revealing half of his white teeth, shook his head slightly and didn't say anything, and asked instead: "Have you heard it?"

The five small flag officials were all the only ones who could say no, let alone the masters under their jurisdiction. These people are all old men from Qingyuan Guards. How did the Baihu General Banner, who had seen so many different experiences, make the flag army at the bottom of the flag army? Moreover, they were very moved by the wind, so there was no reason to hit Chen Mu's gun.

The soldiers may be a little more sleek, but under the same conditions, they may not be able to be cruel. Chen Mu is already a ruthless man from Qingyuan Guard. Even Chen Mu himself may not have imagined this matter - he killed five bandits and five Japanese pirates in half a year, and hung ten heads at his waist. This is an almost unimaginable merit in Qingyuan, who has not experienced any war in the mountains of Lingnan!

They walked for only twenty miles, and as they saw the mines that were about to reach the destination to open the furnace, they suddenly rushed over and shouted for help when they saw them: "Is the coming flag army that suppressed the miners?"

The person who came was very funny. He looked like a young man, wearing a peach-colored robe, with a sachet on his waist, turned over and got off the horse and supported his knees and gasped.

Seeing that his conduct was like a famous scholar, Chen Mu was surprised by his appearance and dressed up, but he still held back his smile and bowed: "Chen Mu, the chief banner of Qianhu Institution in Xiaqing City, is leading his army to suppress the miners. Is something wrong in the mine?"

"General Flag!"

The man with rouge seemed to be stepping on his tail, waved his hands forward one after another, saying, "Go back quickly, the hundred households are not the opponent when fighting in front of him. The miner is very fierce. Come and find your hundred households to lead troops to bullets... Hey, why are you so many flag troops?"

The road was not wide, but Chen Mu trained the flag army to adhere to the standard of "two people traveled, three people traveled" in his previous life. Five small flags were the vanguard, and the flag army marched side by side. At this time, the station was densely stationed and the training was finally effective. It was useless to fight the war, but it still seemed that it was a glance to scare the young man.

Chen Mu heard him whispering in surprise, held his smile and bowed and asked, "Dare you ask me, yes?"

"In the lower place, Zhu Xiang, ambassador of Guangdong's governor." Zhu Xiang, ambassador of the Rouge Tax Treasury, hurriedly bowed and said to Chen Mu anxiously: "More than 200 miners refused to pay the class, and the railway was captured. This is to rebel!"

The Chief Secretary has an ambassador of the treasury, who is a ninth-rank official who is in charge of registering annual taxes and entering the treasury. As for the railway and salt roads, they are all tax collectors who are not in the ordinary.

Now I don’t know what happened in the mine to arouse the anger of the miners, and ask them to capture the railway tax collectors and fight with the hundreds of households who were holding troops to suppress them, which makes the already difficult things even more complicated.

Could it be that it is true that we have to lead our troops to kill us?

Chen Mu's thoughts were spinning rapidly in his head. He didn't want to start a killing, but it was even more impossible to go back to find a hundred households to lead troops, because there were no hundred households above his head, unless he went back to invite Bai Yuanjie's Manliang Camp... But he couldn't even do this, so wouldn't he be useless?

"Ambassador Ku, don't panic. Please take Chen over and take a look first. Even if the troops are out of force, the flag army under his command can protect it well."

Ambassador Ku Zhu Xiang looked at Chen Mu with some suspicion, and then looked at the flag troops standing straight behind him, especially Wei Balang, who held his head up and his chest and his back, and pressed the Japanese sword. Finally, he nodded helplessly and said to Chen Mu: "Then follow the general flag and go and take a look first. Who knows that these miners are so strong, alas!"

Zhu Xiang got on the horse and walked with Chen Mu along with the tax collector who was following him. The horse riders could not move quickly. After all, the flag army in the back were all infantry. Taking this opportunity, Chen Mu happened to ask Zhu Xiang about the situation in the mine, but he didn't know that when he asked, he even asked an acquaintance. The one who led the flag army to fight with the miners in the mine was nothing else, but Zhang Yongshou, a hundred household in Qingyuan Gorge!

As for how the two sides fought, it was interesting. The words that came out of Zhu Xiang were made by the miners who made an inappropriate thoughts. Zhang Baihu stopped them righteously, and then the two convenient conflicted. The military households could not defeat the miners. When he ran out, more than 40 flag-dding under Zhang Yongshou was blocked by the miners and chased them relentlessly. Even the railway that went to negotiate with the mountain master was caught.

What was the unreasonable idea? Zhu Xiang didn't tell Chen Mu in detail. The group was busy rushing to the road, and Chen Mu was too lazy to ask in detail. He just wanted to go over and see how Zhang Yongshou was beaten by a group of miners holding mine picks.

The journey was not long for several miles, and after a short while, you could see the mine from afar, and you could also hear the angrily cursing and crying in the distance, and the crowds were heard. When approaching, Chen Mu was worried that the flag army would be discovered first and besieged, so he ordered people to slowly touch a hillside and arrange the soldiers before looking at the mine. A small group of flag army was surrounded on the mountain road to save lives and heal the wounded. A hundred miners at the foot of the mountain danced with picks of mine, sticks and other objects, but did not attack the mountain, but cursed upwards. Some people held short swords and threatened to the tied tax collector for not knowing what to say, and cried while talking.

With all the chaos in his eyes, Chen Mu seemed to be clearly the way he was about to rebel and kill the official. He was even more anxious and made a decision in a hurry. He waved his hand to Shi Qi and said, "The bird gun flag sounded towards the sky, and the medicine was loaded quickly!"
