The emperor suddenly decided to return to Kyoto (after Beijing was promoted to the imperial capital, Beijing was called the capital and Nanjing was called the capital), something big was bound to happen. [] Xia Xun could no longer be friends with Ming'er, so he immediately rushed to see the emperor, and he only found out after asking.
The Southern Kingdom made a big mistake.
Xia Xun felt a little silent after hearing this, and thought to himself: "Sure enough, such a thing happened. It turned out that the cause of the incident was that someone took bribes to deceive the emperor, and then King Annan Li used force to kill the only heir of the Chen Dynasty."
Xia Xun was not too enthusiastic about taking the opportunity to implement direct rule over Annan.
When the Ming Dynasty Yan Congjian discussed the gain and loss of Annan, he lamented that the Ming Dynasty lost Annan. The first reason was that General Zhang Fu was not allowed to control Annan for a long time; the second reason was that the officials stationed in Annan were greedy and violent, which aroused strong resistance from the people of Annan;
The third reason is that the ministers of the Ming Dynasty only knew the calculations of small families, but did not see the long-term interests of preserving Annan.
In fact, the problem is not just that simple. For example, Annan has been a self-reliant kingdom for four to five hundred years. Unlike the Ming Dynasty, which replaced the Yuan Dynasty and directly took over the rule of the Liaodong administrative agencies, the Ming Dynasty did not have any direct administrative basis for Annan from the central government; such as the deployment of heavy troops to command
The loyalty issues that cannot be ignored by General Hikyu, such as...
If you want to directly occupy and implement county governance as before, it is impossible to achieve it due to the backward conditions at the time. If you insist on doing it, it is not impossible. The problem is that the cost of administration is too high, and the mountainous and jungle environment determines that their villages
The villages are closed and independent, and when officers and soldiers arrive there, they cannot gather heavy troops. If they fight guerrillas, they will be like scattered beans, unable to form a joint force.
As for some people, once they think of a place, their first instinct is to occupy it. This is a kind of hunger mentality that occurs when they are later cut off by foreign bandits and go crazy, just like some people who are hungry and scared, even if they become
A billionaire, no matter where he goes, he still has to prepare all kinds of food around him. Only in this way can he feel safe in his heart.
Xia Xun has been sitting in a high position for several years. The first thing to weigh when doing things is interests. Whether the country is prosperous and stable, whether it is stable in the long run, has no direct relationship with the vastness of the territory. Sometimes too vast a territory can be a burden. Genghis Khan's territory is vast enough.
,How is the result?
Historically, the Battle of Annan lasted for more than 30 years. For more than 30 years, the Ming army fought in jungles in remote places, fighting with heaven and people, and suffered extremely heavy losses. Many famous ministers and brave generals were killed there, having paid such a heavy sacrifice.
As a result, during the rule of Annan, it did not bring any benefits to the Ming court and the Ming Dynasty, but instead caused the Ming government and hundreds of mansions to pay a huge price.
At that time, the annual financial expenditures for transporting grain to ensure the troops stationed in Annan and to support the local people's lives exceeded the total supply to the northern and southern capitals at that time. Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanjing once said: "The barbarians in the four directions and the small southern barbarian countries,
It is limited to mountains and seas, and is isolated in a corner. The land is not enough to provide supplies, and the people are not enough to command. If they do not think about themselves and come to disturb us, it is unlucky. They are not a national danger, but I raise an army to attack them.
It’s also ominous.”
This is a pragmatic idea for politicians, rather than a consideration for posthumous reputation. Annan is not Liaodong, and there is no fatal threat to the Ming court. If you hold it in your hands, the benefits obtained are far less than those under indirect control.
Cost, just like later the British and French could rule Southeast Asia with tens of thousands of people, without placing any burden on themselves, and still get the benefits you want.
According to different environments and conditions, different strategies should be adopted. What must be in your own hands, how can you do it? Let your father, brother, and son bury their bones in a foreign land, and let you weave the food you worked hard to grow. Wouldn't you object if you send your cloth area to a foreign land but can't get back anything beneficial to the country and the people?
If your border is in Yunnan, and you cannot make the country rich and powerful, can you do it by taking Annan? Next, do you think Myanmar is in the way and then take Myanmar? Then Champa, Lao Kao, Siam, Chenla, India... …
Every time you take a place, you have to come into contact with a newer area and a newer regime. Do you have to occupy it indefinitely to have the confidence to ensure your own development? I'm afraid that by then, it will become like a blind man trying to tear off the corn. If the stick is lost, as long as something goes wrong, it will cause a chain reaction like a domino, and everything gained with huge financial resources and sacrifices will disappear like a floating cloud.
Xia Xun prefers indirect control. When there is no profit, there is a subordinate relationship to restrain them. When it is profitable, they can be used for me. He does not want to turn Vietnam, the "cemetery" in the eyes of American soldiers, into a place where countless Ming soldiers are buried. The cemetery cannot be exchanged for anything beneficial to the country and the people, so it was still reluctantly given up in the end.
Annan has always been dominated by Chinese culture, using Chinese characters as the official language, Confucianism as the official doctrine, conducting imperial examinations, and even learning Taoism, and its customs and habits are also deeply influenced by Chinese. In such a country, one or two agents must be found People are very convenient. So first use the strategy of combining hardness and softness to restrain them, and then use transformation and indoctrination to penetrate them, which is enough!
Xia Xun's silence appeared to Zhu Di because he was worried about the situation in Annan. Instead, he comforted him by saying: "Xuan doesn't need to worry. Little Annan can't do anything. You can just rest assured about Liaodong. I said , Our country’s innermost troubles always come from the north, and it is of great significance to manage Liaodong. If you can manage Liaodong well for me, even if there are a few clowns in Nanyang, they can be destroyed with the power of a finger!"
Xia Xun hurriedly bowed and said in his heart: "No matter what, there will always be a fight on Annan's side. This battle will not be completed for a year and a half. I will go back to Jinling by then. If then The emperor decided to directly administer Annan, and then make suggestions for the emperor, and try to stabilize the rule to avoid paying a heavy price, but in the end he got nothing. What the emperor said is true, the country's most serious concern is always in Liaodong, and I still focus on this for now. Bian, make sure there are no problems in Liaodong!"
※
The governor has returned to Liaodong.
The timing for Xia Xun's return to Liaodong was just right. Wanshiyu had almost dealt with the explosion in Kaiyuan City.
Thanks to Zhang Jun's full cooperation, coupled with the heavy losses suffered by the Tatars in two consecutive battles, there is currently no force on the eastern front. Some tribes, even though they are a little resentful, do not dare to act rashly and continue to play "Don't you treat me differently?" , brother goes to hug the Tatar thigh" trick.
Wanshiyu's treatment was not unsevere. Many of the perpetrators of vandalism, looting, and burning were directly caught on the streets and executed on the spot.
As soon as the riot began, Wanshi Territory activated the emergency mechanism and implemented emergency measures similar to military control. The imperial court had relevant regulations. In the emergency state of counterinsurgency, bandit suppression, and invasion by powerful enemies, local governments have the power to handle special matters. The military, political and judicial powers are all in their own hands, and they are reported to the court after the incident. It is obvious that Wanshiyu has long thought about the issue of authority to deal with the aftermath, and his tactics and scheming are not without scheming.
Liaodong originally only had a "military government", but now there is an additional shogunate. As long as Zhang Jun has no objections, the power of Wanshiyu can be implemented. Of course Zhang Jun will not have any objections. Xia Xun's people haven't come back yet, and the secret order has arrived.
There are only six words to say to Wanshiyu: "Well done, well done!"
In Zhang Junlai's case, this was the silent condemnation of the ministers. At this time, Xia Xun relied most heavily on the army, but Xia Xun did not say a word to him, but also praised Wanshiyu. Isn't this dissatisfaction with his weakness and tolerance?
?
As a result, Zhang Jun's attitude became tougher. This change of his invisibly created conditions for him to establish his personal prestige. You must know that the parties in the conflict this time were the children of the Liaodong military and the children of the Han nationality in Liaodong. They casually
Take one out, and behind it there is a general or a long-standing Han family in Liaodong. Some families are so old that they can even be traced back to the civil strife of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. They fled to Liaodong and lived under the Liao Kingdom, and they have been reproduced for four to five hundred years.
Shengxi, they are now in Liaodong, a force that no one dares to ignore.
Zhang Jun was originally a minister of the Liaodong Dusi. He worked under Shen Yong. He was only famous within the Dusi Yamen. His influence outside was not even as good as those of the generals who directly led the troops. Therefore, in Liaodong, although
He had little prestige, and even lacked control over the generals. When Xia Xun was here, he was still a follower. Xia Xun wanted to hand over the army to him, and he had to manage it for a period of time before he could establish his prestige in the Liaodong army.
Through this incident, the Liaodong military and the Liaodong clan gradually grew fond of him. Once they identified with a person, they would not resist his orders. This laid a solid foundation for him to preside over Liaodong's military affairs.
As for a higher degree of obedience, it can naturally be formed by holding power for a long time. A mediocre talent like Shen Yong who implemented "ruling by inaction" in Liaodong can also recruit a group of party members after sitting in that position for a long time, such as Pei Yishite.
Moore was so tough that he did not dare to openly contradict him, not to mention that Zhang Jun was a person who dared to do whatever he wanted.
Therefore, with the full cooperation of Zhang Jun and Wan Shiyu, the crisis was resolved neatly and completely. When Xia Xun returned to Liaodong, those who deserved to be killed had been killed, those who deserved to be sentenced had been sentenced, and the dust had settled.
Today, Mo Ke, the director of justice of Wanshi Realm, is continuing the investigation. Due to the chaos at that time, many of the people who initially participated in the conflict have died, and the official information available is not comprehensive. Zuo Dan and others, under the orders of Xia Xun, although they were serving as Jin Yiwei
They provided some information to Mo Ke in the name of the other party, but since they were mainly following and monitoring, making some inferences from the other party's contact and subsequent actions could not be used as direct evidence, so Wanshiyu wanted to investigate the ulterior motives of those who deliberately provoked disputes.
A detailed investigation process is still required for a public trial and sentencing of the defendant.
The "Huaguna" tribe only has more than a hundred people, a small number, but they defected to the Ming Dynasty in the name of surrender. Before conclusive evidence is obtained, any adverse treatment against them will affect all the tribes that surrendered. This is
The reason why Xia Xun had to deal with it carefully was not because "Xiao Ying" was a woman and a good woman, so he felt pity for her.
When Xia Xun returned to Kaiyuan, people from all walks of life in Kaiyuan's military and political circles, local celebrities, and even local tribal leaders came to greet him. Xia Xun came with Zheng He. When Zheng He came, the court's decree was immediately followed.
It can be announced that the "temporary workers" of the Liaodong shogunate can become official officials of the imperial court, of course they are happy; the Liaodong Dusi can be separated from the Shandong Dusi, and the entire yamen has been promoted to a higher level, and everyone is happy. As for the tribal leaders, among others
There are many clan members who have been punished too harshly by Wanshiyu and have come here despite all the hardships. They still want to complain to Xia Xun and file a complaint.
Unexpectedly, when Xia Xun returned to Liaodong, something like this had never happened in Kaiyuan City that even shocked the Holy Emperor. From the beginning to the end, he did not mention this topic at all.
Welcoming him back to the Governor's Yamen, Xia Xun just announced in a moderate tone: "Eunuch Zheng has come a long way to work hard. Today I will take care of him and take a rest. I will announce the imperial edict tomorrow. I would like to trouble all colleagues, gentry, and leaders to come here."
Yang is grateful for the welcome! Today’s feast is a feast, and you won’t come home until you get drunk!”
