In the 28th year of Hongwu, mid-October.

The matter here in Duobang City has finally ended completely.

Among them, from Guangxi and Yunnan provinces, a large amount of grain and officials were mobilized to northern Annan.

Annan's destruction was a foregone conclusion, and the Annan chieftains with a little gaze could see it.

As for whether Annan will be ruled by the Annan royal family in the future or will be led by the Ming Dynasty, this is unknown.

Because the Ming army had sufficient food, the reputation of the Ming army was relatively good. In addition to being stronger than the Annan chieftains' rebel army, the other Annan people were still overly stable.

Moreover, the people of Annan, which belonged to the north, were basically released, which won the favor of many people of chieftainship.

The national resistance has become stable.

Speaking of which, Annan has always been affiliated with the Ming Dynasty, and many chieftains are aware of this.

For the Ming army entering Annan, this is not an invasion, but a correction of trouble, and fundamentally a righteous army.

After all, there were still a small number of ethnic groups who were constantly in a state of resistance, which also led to the Ming Dynasty's military control over the northern region that had been conquered by Duopan City.

Zhu Ying's order also arrived in the northern part of Duobang City again.

It is mainly to win over and enthrone the chieftain nobles.

Under the jurisdiction of the chieftain nobles, garrisons were re-established, and some stubborn nobles, or who were not so obedient, were directly punished.

Re-supported some down-and-out nobles, and with the intervention of the Ming Dynasty, a power change was made for the chieftain nobles.

The newly promoted nobles naturally supported the Ming Dynasty. Some bad areas quickly became stable and began to transport food, intelligence and other materials to the Ming Dynasty.

Including the commander, commander, thousands of households and hundreds of households, they are all from the upper class members of the chieftain nobles.

The implementation of these measures is because it is impossible to mobilize a large number of Han people from the Ming Dynasty to migrate in a short period of time.

Nowadays, the productivity of the chieftains of all ethnic groups in Annan is no longer possible to break through the original productivity, and can only be a restorative strategy. In addition, the relationship between the chieftains and nobles is impossible to abandon the chieftains and rule the land.

If you force this, it will only be a long period of turmoil and uneasiness.

In fact, whether it is the chieftains, the Annan royal family or the Ming Dynasty, they are essentially a community of interests. As long as they protect common interests, they can completely compromise with each other.

As long as the interests of the Sect Master and the Ming Dynasty were not greatly affected, everyone could still accept it.

Among them, the chieftain nobles themselves, when the Ming Dynasty intervened in power, more contradictions arose among the old and new nobles.

When a balance point is reached, the Ming Dynasty will not spend too much effort on the conquered Annan area.

Even if there are insufficient officials, there is no impact at all.

Of course, everything depends on the situation behind the Ming army in Duobang City.

As many people predicted, after the reorganized Ming army left Duobang City, they were in a state of unstoppable power along the way.

Hu Jiyao's army did not have the courage to confront him head-on.

Ye Sheng and others also went straight to attack Shenglong City, the eastern capital of Annan, which is now the Annan royal family, and also the city that obeyed Liu Sheng and others.

No surprises.

When the Ming army arrived, Hu Jiyao, with his confidants and army, had already run away from the capital, without even the courage to defend the city.

In fact, this is not a question about Hu Jiyao, because Shenglong City is located in a special location, and if you guard the city, there is no escape direction at all. In addition, in the city, there are actually many of them who are confidants of the Annan royal family.

It is easy to form a situation of internal and external cooperation with the Ming army.

The best choice is to decisively give up Shenglong City.

After Hu Jiyao left, the Annan royal family once again took over the capital and welcomed the arrival of the Ming army.

Hu Jiyao is still very thoughtful about politics.

The Ming Dynasty dispatched so many troops, so naturally he wanted to get rewards in Annan.

He gave up Shenglong City today, which would inevitably lead to a conflict between the Annan royal family and the Ming army.

The things the Ming army did in the area north of Duopan City, including the establishment of garrisons and the re-division of the noble rule, had long been informed.

Even though it was lost, Hu Jiyao still had some confidants there, especially the decline of the old nobles, which became closer to Hu Jiyao, and it was not difficult to get news.

This also made Hu Jiyao realize that Daming's move was to annex Annan.

The occurrence of these situations, including Hu Jiyao's own inference, went to the Annan Palace the night before he left Shenglong City.

"Your Majesty, no matter what, I am all from Annan. But if the Ming army is allowed to rule Annan, this Annan will never be His Majesty's Annan again."

"I have seen it clearly. His Royal Highness of the Ming Dynasty has great ideas about Annan, no, even Chameng, and is intended to be included in the direct rule of the Ming Dynasty."

"I was fascinated before. When the Ming Navy tried every means to station in Chameng port, I should have thought of it."

"The King of Chameng has ceded a city. As the vassal of the Ming Dynasty's grandson Zhu Yunwen, with this excuse, the Ming Dynasty's troops stationed in Chameng will be justified."

"Although the elite soldiers on Annan were defeated by ministers, they are now exchanged for direct intervention from the Ming Dynasty, giving them enough excuses."

"I have gone to Qinghua, and I don't know how long I will last there. This time I meet is probably the last time I will meet His Majesty."

"Your Majesty should know that I just don't want Annan to belong to Annan, and I have always been loyal to Your Majesty."

After saying that, Hu Jiyao knelt on the ground and performed a ceremony of three kneelings and nine kowtows to Chen Yong, the Supreme Emperor of Annan.

After the ceremony, he turned around and left without waiting for Chen Yong to reply.

The Supreme Emperor of Annan Chen Yong looked at Hu Jiyao's back as he left, and the emotions in his eyes were very complicated.

Since his father reused Hu Jiyao, the situation in Annan has actually been stable. Hu Jiyao himself is a relatively talented person, and there is no doubt about this.

In Champa, it has always maintained a relatively strong state.

But to this day, for the Supreme Emperor Annan Chen Yong, it is not his own choice at all.

Or the only push is to send the eldest princess Chen Muyue to the Ming Dynasty.

......

The Ming army, who took over the capital of Annan, performed even stronger than Chen Yong imagined.

The first step to entering the city was to rule the entire city by officers.

Even at this time, Liu Sheng, Li Xiucai and Zhao Yuanhong were able to come out of the dungeon where there was no light.

"This Hu Jiyao is so bold that he dares to rebel against our Ming Dynasty. If he catches him this time, he must tear him to pieces."

Li Xiucai said fiercely.

During this time in the dungeon, he suffered a lot. Not to mention anything else, all excretion was done in the cell for several months.

The smell of smell alone is really unbearable.

During this period, I caught a cold stomach, so I was even more so, but I couldn’t even take a shower, so I could only endure it all the time.

It's simply...silent!

Whether in the Western Regions or in the capital, I have never suffered such pain.

"Come on, it's good to be able to save your life."

Liu Sheng said indifferently.

I have never experienced anything in my life, and I have a more miserable life than this.

Hu Jiyao did not kill them, but it was actually the best situation.

This is also a fear that the three of them will be killed, which will lead to the rage of the Ming Dynasty, so that they will not even have room for the final turn.

Hu Jimao also understood that the chance of rebellion was not high. If he just killed three people, he would not only die, but also the nine clans would be destroyed according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty.

Some things cannot be refused too much, otherwise you will not even have your own way of retreat.

The first thing Zhao Yuanhong did after he came out was to obtain the latest information immediately, mainly to win over the previous subordinates' news.

Fortunately, after the accident, the previous hidden thread immediately became hidden. Although some of them were cleaned, most of them had their lives left.

It's not difficult to recover.

After experiencing this incident, Zhao Yuanhong obviously had more ideas.

The first thing before him was naturally to pursue Li Laosi's whereabouts.

The most severe punishment must be imposed on traitors.

Zhao Yuanhong is different from others. He has never lived in the capital. Even though he knew that his boss had become His Royal Highness the Grand Prince of the Ming Dynasty, his style of conduct was still in the chamber of commerce before.

The punishment for traitors is not only physical destruction, but also endless torture to the soul.

Liu Sheng was busy convening his former subordinates.

Most of the 50,000 elite soldiers were captured and taken away by Hu Jiyao, and some of them escaped. They naturally have to collect them back now.

Wei Xing, the commander, is still in Hu Jiyao's hands.

Li Xiucai had nothing to do. The current situation is not suitable for education, so he followed Zhao Yuanhong.

Speaking of which, we are all scholars from the Ming Dynasty and scholars.

I was not very familiar at first, but during this period of time in the dungeon, my relationship naturally became much closer.
