Chapter 457 Prisoners of war with an unpredictable fate (Fifth watch)
The imperial troops of Qin and Jin, and the Tibetan army, which were originally heading to Tokyo, will return to their bases along the same route.
After all, if the Ming Zhu clan rebels even lost their base camp, could it be repeated?
At least Zhao Ji, an official who believed in his ruthless capabilities, did not believe it, so he firmly stated that he no longer needed the two groups of forbidden troops to continue south east.
Let them return to the border town quickly to prevent Naxixia from taking advantage of the situation to make a sneak attack.
Otherwise, Dongzhi commended those meritorious soldiers. In addition, the righteous man Fang La was promoted to Wu Lue Lang, and he still commanded the three thousand righteous brave men and returned them to the east of Gaozhang's tent.
Gao Qiu thanked the officials profusely and then slowly left the palace.
Although Zhang'er was not promoted, he was appointed as a local official by the Yu family, so he had no right to know about Suzhou's military and state affairs.
After all, the magistrate of Suzhou has become the dead soul of the red thieves. Now that Suzhou City has been restored, it is natural that officials must be arranged quickly.
But as it turned out, the court did not have time to choose a suitable person, so the officials asked Gao Zhang to take on the responsibility first.
But he had an additional official position, and he was in a good mood and the officials rewarded him with a lot of money.
I think Mrs. Huang, who was in a bad mood during the confinement period, should be happy.
After all, although Gao Qiu had tried to conceal it before, he could not let the Huang family know that Gao Zhang Ruming was in Jiangnan.
But fortunately, my wife Huang has always firmly believed that whether Zhang'er is blessed by the ancestors of the Gao family, Wenquxing, he will definitely turn his misfortune into good fortune.
Now Ruming's view shows that the lady's analysis is indeed wrong. It took so many years for the old Gao family to produce such a famous child prodigy number one scholar. Naturally, the good fortune is deep and good fortune can be turned into good fortune.
Go home quickly and tell your wife the good news first. Now that your wife is pregnant, you must not let her go to the ancestral hall to announce the good news.
After all, Mrs. Huang's habit of burning incense and candles was endless, which really gave Gao Qiu a headache.

After the Di newspaper was posted, the news that the child prodigy champion had actually achieved great victory in Jiangnan, that the Zhu family's rebels had been defeated one after another, and that they had even lost their old nest, swept the entire Bianliang, Tokyo, in an instant.
In less than a month, grain prices, which had already increased by 50%, plummeted.
Various speculations about how the child prodigy champion can win more with less have become the hottest topic in Tokyo Bianliang.
In Duan's trading company, Duan Dalang, who had been frowning since confinement, finally breathed a sigh of relief and even ate half a bowl more for lunch.
Seeing his overly cautious boss behave like this, Duan Zhongping shook his head helplessly, and then he proudly taught his son a lesson.
"How about it? Dad said at that time, since our champion dared to let me transport those equipment to Jiangnan.
Dad can tell that Duke Zhuangyuan is capable of calming down the chaos in Jiangnan..."
"No, no, no, dad taught you wrong, the child is too cautious."
Duan Dalang, who always puts prudence first in his actions, can honestly bow his head and listen to the instructions.
"Erlang has also sent a letter. He will be staying in Changzhou tomorrow. It just so happens that he can be there to receive equipment and goods in Changzhou.
It will also allow our Duan Trading Company to flex its muscles in Jiangnan as soon as possible."
"That's wrong, Dalang. When I have time, I will go to the Kaifeng Metal Workshop and ask how many finished products Ruming has on the sewing machine."
"Get them all quickly, ship them as soon as possible, and transport them to the south of the Yangtze River. Don't miss out on the important event of the Number One Scholar."
"No, let's do it then." Duan Dalang hurriedly took the last bite of rice into his mouth and walked away quickly.
At this moment, Duan Zhongping's wife, Mrs. Liu, chuckled and shook her head.
"The boss is always cautious when doing things, which is both his strength and weakness."
Duan Zhongping also nodded, feeling the same way.
"No, that boy, if you can keep it up, do you want to make Duan's trading company prosperous? Is it true that you can't count on him?"
"Husband, please leave two of those sewing machines for me. I also think that those things can be used to make clothes and shoes. They are really much better than cutting and sewing with legs."
"Well, since I think it's useful, ma'am, I'll just tell Dalang later."
Duan Zhongping stroked his long beard and burped, and began to make plans. He had already sent a batch before, and there were more than ten units in Buluo.
That time, there should be more. Duan Zhongping still remembers that he went to the Kaifeng Metal Workshop in person to watch the craftsmen making the sewing machine. Is it a bit exaggerated?
There were sparks flying everywhere in the workshop, and there were machines made of metal that were constantly moving back and forth.
The workbench they use to make parts is all made of metal. It relies on water power to cut or polish. Compared with the leg work in the past, it is really much faster.
But the sound there was so harsh that even now, when I think about it, my scalp feels numb.

At this moment, groups of imperial soldiers were patrolling outside Suzhou City.
Collected all the remaining defeated soldiers outside Suzhou City, drove them out of the city, and moved into the large camp built during the previous siege.
After all, those large camps were newly built and were used to hold prisoners of war.
And the identities of those prisoners of war are being clarified. If the civilians have not been forcibly recruited into the army, they will be transferred to another prisoner of war camp.
Those who are the remnants of the Fu Zhu family will continue to be imprisoned here, and many people have been forcibly recruited into the army.
Most of them have already been claimed by their relatives, signed a bond and left the prisoner-of-war camp, returning to their warm and stable homes.
As for the remnants of the Zhu family whose identities have been confirmed, many of them have been working in the Zhu family's enterprises and farms.
Later, there were nearly 20,000 prisoners of war who took up arms and served the Zhu family.
At this moment, the prisoners of war stared blankly at the imperial officers and soldiers patrolling the camp, and they did not know what their future fate would be.
Fear and uneasiness have always shrouded their hearts. Many months have passed, and now it is dawn, but they have no intention of dealing with them.
Those die-hard minions of the Zhu family in Bu Nao had already been executed on the spot outside the city after a public trial a few months after Mao was restored to Suzhou City.
In those few months, there were really a lot of killings and rivers of blood. There were more than 700 heads.
Seeing that the people of Jiangnan were deeply pleased, they were also frightened.
Of course, what they were afraid of was not Gao Zhang, the young man who became famous and saved the people of Jiangnan from danger.
Instead of the eunuch who was responsible for killing people, he appointed Tan Zhen, the deputy envoy.
It can be said that the great eunuch is now in the area south of the Yangtze River. He is a great evil man who can stop his children from crying at night.
At this moment, it was almost noon, and a group of unlucky ghosts who were still detained in the prisoner of war camp had moved to the open space in the prisoner of war camp, waiting silently...
