Chapter 326 interests deceive and deceive
Chapter 326: Belief of the superiors and conceals the subordinates
More than 2,000 people in Dengzhou Camp disappeared out of thin air. After all, the prefect Wang and the officials of Denglai's military preparatory road did not see any corpses in the ashes of the Qianhu Station in Yantai Mountain. If the camp was full of collapse, would there be any soldiers who fled?
This document full of fantasy colors of gods and monsters was reported to the Ministry of War. The Secretary of State and the Minister of War were all very angry. I thought that if such a report came, how could the Ministry of War get it outside to submit it? Many people in the capital knew that Jiang Feng built a fortress between Incheon and Seoul.
It was considered as separating a piece of land overseas, but although these people now know the truth, no one will tell the emperor about the news, and even Yan Ling's subordinates told it.
Lu Bing and Huang Jin have always been very concerned about Jiang Feng's movements. It can be said that the mobilization of troops around Shandong was the arrangement of these two people. Of course, they did not expect such a rebellion to suddenly break out, and it would cause such a big trouble. All the soldiers and horses were surrounded and deployed in Shandong, and many of them were dispersed by the rebels.
The final solution was to solve the problem by the border troops mobilized in Jizhen and Xuanhua. Everyone who believed in Emperor Jiajing knew about this rebellion. Jiajing was not only not worried about the hijacking of King Jing and the rebels who used his banner, but also gloated.
When Wen Dao and Liu Shisan combined, part of the entire southern Shandong and Laizhou was occupied. Emperor Jiajing was finally furious, especially when he received the so-called rebels to go directly to Nanjing. When Nanjing supported King Dai Jing as the emperor, he issued orders repeatedly, ordering the Ministry of War and the Ministry of War in Nanjing to be careful and have all their strength to encircle and suppress.
The rebels, which had been struggling for more than half a year, were finally destroyed. Wen Dao's head was sent to the capital, and Liu Shisan was still being chased closely.
Do these things have something to do with Jiang Feng and his Dengzhou Camp? These two people are not sure about it. Although the Jinyiwei and the Dongchang have relatively strong intelligence capabilities of this era, they are not omnipotent. Yantai Shan Qianhu Institute is a forbidden area for outsiders.
It would be easy to say that Jiang Feng's soldiers had some barracks background, but they were basically composed of craftsmen and farmers, and the Jinyiwei had no pre-judgment at all, so they had no way to start. What's more important is that Lu Bing also had two quite huge manors outside the pass, and Huang Jin also gained huge benefits in Shandong's private salt.
What Jiang Feng did in Korea is actually something that no one dared to do since ancient times. It can be said that this attack on the vassal state is a rebellion, but the royal family of the vassal state has not said anything, nor has there been formal documents here. In fact, in February this year, the Jinyiwei once received news that it was a slave of the capital who killed people outside the city. Generally speaking, if there is no complaint from the victim, neither the Jinyiwei nor the Shuntian Prefecture's yamen will pay attention to it. Why bother causing trouble for those high-ranking families?
Of course, if the person who was killed this time investigated in detail, he would find that he was not a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, but a North Korean official, and he still had letters asking for help and sue, but North Korea's special circumstances made him only take one or two followers to the road.
After arriving at the outskirts of the capital, the nobles who had already set up a surveillance staff to find this person effortlessly. There was no need for too many skills and preparations at one time, so the news still did not enter the capital.
Jiang Feng's actions were treason, separatist or rebellion, but the nearly 100 Ming nobles and officials from the Ming Dynasty behind the Beijing Merchants Group can be said to be one-something of the ruling class of the Ming Dynasty, and they basically have various connections with Jiang Feng.
If Jiang Feng is questioned, then what are the nobles who bring a large number of ships to North Korea to buy and sell the population? Moreover, when these nobles were in North Korea, they were also used as occupying troops. At that time, they would not be able to relate to each other. There would be nearly 500 Korean slaves in Lu Bing's manor, and there were more other manors. If the generals were in trouble, everyone would not get any benefits. Huang Jin, the eunuch of the Silijian, was even more so.
He gets nearly 50,000 taels of silver from his younger brother Huang Ping every year. Jiang Feng and Huang Ping share the distribution of Shandong private salt. If he has anything, wouldn't Huang Ping support the rebellion?
At this time, the court was not a state of dominance in the eunuchs, military officers, civil servants, Jinyiwei, and nobles. All forces were entangled with each other. If anyone had a flaw, the other party would naturally catch them, let alone such a fatal handle.
However, the things at this time were quite strange. Almost all the forces in the court were in the reclamation manor outside the pass, and they had various interests. Since ancient times, high-ranking officials have the easiest to make money. They have power and money in their hands, and the news is convenient, so it is difficult not to make money.
When the restaurants in Beijing were the most profitable, many people followed up in time and naturally made a purchase. Although the reclamation manor outside the pass was already a huge profit, there was no one in his hands, no power or money. How could they do such a thing? These people more or less bought Korean slaves from Jiang Feng's hands.
In other words, everyone has a handle to be held by the other party, and in order to make money and make money, everyone needs more Korean slaves. Last year's group of people arrived outside the pass during the autumn and winter, not to mention those who died and fled on the road, burned wasteland in autumn, prepared wood, logging ice in winter, and spring farming in the second year. The managers of the reclamation estate generally only have the experience of managing tenants and no experience of using slaves. As a result, a large number of people died and injured, and they all turned into fertilizers in the fields. However, the large number of harvests obtained are also delightful.
So everyone is planning to buy more Korean slaves this year.
There are so many people in the court now who are involved in Jiang Feng in Korea. And these people still want to continue to gain benefits, so they naturally don’t want to create any other problems. Although the emperor has the ability to be in the world, he does not step into the deep palace. His eyes and ears are the Jinyiwei and the Dongchang, as well as the news of the censors.
But now no one wants the emperor to know about this matter. In the end, he came to the conclusion that the two thousand officers and soldiers of Dengzhou camp fought to the death with the rebels, and they were exhausted.
The emperor's mind has now begun to shift to alchemy and Taoist techniques. He doesn't care about the life and death of a garrison in Shandong and thousands of soldiers. Even these things will not appear in the memorials and documents he said he will read.
Things could not have been so peaceful. After Zhejiang's passionate governor Liu Shunhua learned that his beloved daughter had died in the bandit chaos in Shandong, he was in pain. The so-called disaster never came alone, almost at the same time the court brought down the documents of scolding.
The reason for the condemnation was that the seas in Zhejiang were unstable, and the pirates were allowed to rampantly run, and the imperial court's order to ban the sea was as if nothing had happened. For a moment, the officialdom in Zhejiang was full of discussion. I thought that before Lord Liu came to Zhejiang, the Japanese pirates had attacked Hangzhou Prefecture several times, and the scholars and the people were slaughtering it, and the place was stable now. It was much better than when I came before. Why did the court issue an order to scold me?
Moreover, the wealthy families in Zhejiang are now the last business. Every family has business on the sea. As long as there is no Japanese pirates rampant, everyone will feel at ease to make a fortune. Wouldn't everyone be happy? However, the imperial court's documents must be obeyed honestly. According to common practice, with such a severe scolding, the scolded officials should do to report illness and recuperate at home. Zhejiang governor Liu Shunhua did not unexpectedly recuperate.
All civil affairs in Zhejiang Province were temporarily represented by the left political party in the yamen of the governor.
The news that Jiang Feng left Dengzhou has spread on the sea, with surprises, those who are lucky enough to gloat, and those who are ready to move.
There is a garrison in Xiangshan, Zhejiang. It is close to the Shuangyu Islands on Liuheng Island. The Liuheng Island is actually a bit crowded now. Many wealthy maritime merchants are purchasing real estate in Xiangshan. The nearby Xiangshan military is already fed by these maritime merchants, but instead they have become loyal guards of these maritime merchants.
At the port of Xiangshan, although it is a sea-banned person, there are still ships entering and leaving. However, cargo ships rarely stop here. They are all merchants' boats. A thousand households of Xiangshan Guard are stationed here, and the soldiers also patrol at the constant time.
One morning in June of the 13th year of Jiajing, soldiers standing on duty on the port saw several cargo ships slowly docking on the dock, jumping off a few sailors, and neatly starting to tie cables to the dock. This is a common scenario on the coast of Jiangnan.
However, the soldiers still felt something was wrong, because Xiangshan has always been surrounded by a group of wealthy businessmen, and there would be some cargo ships there. At this time, cargo ships were gathered in Shuangyu on Liuheng Island. It was the main thing to make a lot of money. Who would come here?
The sailors were all coming off on several ships, and they were busy there. A general flag guarding the port, with more than twenty soldiers, came over staggeringly. The general flag spoke in confusion and asked:
"Which cargo ship are you from?"
His tone was quite polite, because the maritime merchants living on the shore were their parents who were food and clothing. If they offended anyone inadvertently, it would be bad. No one expected that the sailors were stunned when they heard the question, and then quickly pulled out weapons from the salutes around them and chopped them towards the soldiers.
This weapon is very familiar with the officers and soldiers of Xiangshan Guard, with a long and narrow sword...
"The Japanese pirates are here, the Japanese pirates are here..."
In June of the 13th year of Jiajing, Japanese pirates plundered Xiangshan, and more than 3,000 soldiers and civilians were killed or injured, and the local area was robbed.
