Chapter 1174 Someone in the DPRK is good to be an official
More than an hour later, the government office finally completed the inspection of more than 800 Japanese pirate heads and determined that 363 of them were real Japanese heads and 461 were fake Japanese heads. There was no suspicion of counterfeiting.
After confirming that there was no problem with the head status, Taizhou magistrate Tan Lun went to his study with a relaxed look on his face, wrote an official document on the Japanese invasion of Taizhou, and submitted it to the court.
Liu Dadao received the document from the government office that stated the number of heads and verified that it was correct, and urged the government office to honor the silver reward for the first meritorious service.
Liu Dadao knew very well how much the young master was now short of the silver reward for his first contribution. On the day of the Jingnan defense battle, the young master issued a heavy reward order to boost morale and defend Jingnan. Anyone who bravely defended the city, regardless of soldiers or civilians, would be rewarded with ten taels of silver.
Those who died in battle will receive an additional reward of 10 taels of silver, and those who died in battle will receive an additional 50 taels of silver. In this way, a total reward of 70,000 to 80,000 taels of silver will be required. This is a huge amount.
The Jingnan County Government had more than 3,000 taels of silver in its treasury, and the young master cashed all of it as a reward. The more than 10,000 stones of grain in the county government's granary were all converted into silver taels, and the young master even cashed in the 1,000 taels of silver he brought with him when he left the capital.
The five hundred taels of silver were all used to redeem the reward. For this reason, the girl Hua'er cried for a long time. However, even so, there was still a gap of more than fifty thousand silver.
The emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is. If the eunuch is in a hurry, it will be of no use.
Liu Dadao finally returned without success. The government ordered Liu Dadao to return to Jingnan to wait for the good news on the grounds that the reward for the first meritorious service needed to go through a process. After the process was completed, the reward for the first meritorious service would be issued to Jingnan by the government.
County Government. As for the time, it can be as fast as three to five days, as slow as ten days, it may be more than a month, or it may be longer.
Administrative efficiency has been greatly improved in the 21st century, but the administrative efficiency of ancient bureaucrats is not optimistic.
When Liu Dadao left Taizhou Prefecture and returned to Jingnan, Taizhou Prefect Tan Lun's official document on the Japanese invasion of Taizhou Prefecture had been drafted, stamped with the prefect's official seal, and ordered the post envoys to rush all the way to the capital.
At dusk, the postman of Taizhou Prefecture rode a fast horse and set off from the north gate of Taizhou Prefecture.
There was a teahouse next to the post station more than 500 miles ahead of the Taizhou Prefecture Post Office. Liu Mu drank hot tea and ate the dry food he had brought with him, got on his horse, touched the son's autographed letter that he carried with him, and continued to rush to the capital.
Liu Mu rode a horse, and there was an empty horse behind him. The reins were tied to the saddle of the riding horse. This was the horse for him to transfer to. One person and two horses were configured to arrive as quickly as possible.
Beijing.
As the county magistrate, Zhu Ping'an had no right to submit official documents directly to the Forbidden City, so he wrote a handwritten letter about the Jingnan Japanese Poison War Report and sent it to his advisor Xu Jie. Because sending a handwritten letter was not official business, and he could not use the post station to replace the fast horse, Zhu Pingan
Ping An provided Liu Mu with two fast horses for transfer.
Post stations in the Ming Dynasty had their own rules. In fact, interns in all dynasties had this rule: they were not allowed to use or abuse the inns unless performing official duties. Violators would be severely punished. Because our country has a vast territory and complex landforms, and in ancient times there were no network communication methods today.
, only inns can be used to deliver messages, and inns are limited. One inn is tens of kilometers away, the size of an inn is limited, and the number of fast horses is limited. If the inn is abused, the delivery of emergency military information and official duties will be affected, and national events will be affected.
It will be affected, so there are rules in all dynasties that prohibit the use or abuse of inns unless performing official duties.
Riding on the red dust concubine laughed, no one knew it was lychee.
The romance of using the inn to send lychees was something only the emperor of a country, Tang Xuanzong, had the right to do.
During the period of Emperor Hongwu, Tang Shengzong, the founding general of the Republic of China, took advantage of his authority to use the post station privately. He was deposed as a marquis by Emperor Hongwu the next day. Although today, the rules of the inn station are not as strict as they were at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and are becoming more and more relaxed, but violations
If you use the inn, it will be a crime if someone reports you.
Nowadays, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at him. Zhu Ping'an will not leave any excuse to others.
As for why Zhu Ping'an sent an autographed letter reporting on the Japanese war to his advisor Xu Jie, it was naturally because there were people in the court who wanted to be officials. As his advisor Xu Jie was the second assistant in the imperial cabinet, why not take advantage of this powerful relationship?
Yu Dayou has learned from his mistakes, and Zhu Ping'an doesn't want to make the same mistakes again.
After the Japanese pirates in Taizhou Prefecture retreated, the situation of the Japanese pirates in Taizhou Prefecture was reported to Zhu Pingan through various channels. Zhu Pingan also learned that Yu Dayou, a famous anti-Japanese general in history, took up the post of Ningtai Commander-in-Chief at this time. Yu Dayou, the famous anti-Japanese general,
Generals, Zhu Ping'an is also very knowledgeable in modern times. Compared with Qi Jiguang, a famous anti-Japanese general who is also famous, Yu Dayou has a lot of misfortunes and is not very successful.
Investigating the reasons, excluding personality, emotional intelligence, etc., the most important reason is the strict suppression by the party.
For example, there is a very famous example. This example was widely spread in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian, and Zhu Ping'an knew it very well. Three years ago, Yu Dayou served as the commander of Beiwadu in Fujian. In this year, Annan invaded, which is the southern part of our country.
The predecessor of a little brother who was not very obedient. Previously, King Mo Fuhai of Annan passed away, and his son Mo Hongyi was still young. Minister Ruan Jingqing wanted to support his son-in-law Mo Jingdian, and another minister Fan Ziyi wanted to support him.
His henchman Mo Zhengzhong started a vendetta against each other. Mo Zhengzhong was defeated and took more than a hundred people to defect to the Ming Dynasty. Fan Ziyi led the remaining defeated soldiers and fled to Haidong. It was this year that Fan Ziyi panicked that Mo Hongyi was dead and came to meet Mo Zhengzhong.
Zhengzhong returned to Annan and ascended the throne, taking the opportunity to invade Qinzhou and Lianzhou, disrupting the borders of the Ming Dynasty. Yu Dayou was ordered to lead his troops to attack. When Yu Dayou led the front army to Lianzhou quickly, Fan Ziyi was rushing to attack Lianzhou City, and Yu Dayou's main force - Shui
The army has not arrived yet. However, Yu Dayou took his time and sent people to Fan Ziyi with great fanfare, claiming that the imperial court had mobilized a large army to persuade Fan Ziyi to surrender. Fan Ziyi was frightened by Yu Dayou, thinking that the imperial army was really coming, and hurriedly led his army
Withdrew. But not long after, Yu Dayou's navy arrived. Later, when Fan Ziyi learned the truth, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood and missed the opportunity to kill Yu Dayou. Yu Dayou, who had gathered all his troops, ambushed Fan Ziyi's army at Guantou Ridge. Fan Ziyi was defeated and turned around.
Yu Dayou, who invaded Qinzhou and fought more fiercely at the water station than on land, led his navy to intercept the warships of Fan Ziyi's army and beat Fan Ziyi to pieces. He captured Fan Ziyi's younger brother Fan Ziliu alive and beheaded 1,200 people. Fan Ziyi fled to Dongyun Tun, where Yu Dayou
After chasing him, he led a large army to suppress the situation and sent an order to Mo Hongxian to kill Fan Ziyi. Mo Hongxian was ordered to kill Fan Ziyi and present his head to Yu Dayou.
If a great achievement in quelling the rebellion and resisting Annan's invasion was reported to the capital, but Yan Song suppressed it and did not report it to the court, after that, Yu Daqiu was only rewarded with fifty taels of silver...
In the eyes of Yan Dang, he is much more dazzling than Yu Dayou. After finally achieving great achievements, Zhu Pingan does not want to make the same mistake as Yu Dayou.
So Zhu Ping'an wrote a handwritten letter reporting the battle and sent it to his commander Xu Jie, so that his commander Xu Jie would know in advance. As the deputy minister of the cabinet, Xu Jie, the commander-in-chief, learned the news, and the strict party could no longer suppress it.
