Cui Da came over. Standing in the huge Binyang City was as comfortable as standing in his own shop. There were no people in Binyang City anymore. When Nong Zhigao returned to his teacher, they had all gone. So now Binyang
The city has been filled to the brim by Wu Sheng's army. Di Qing has never set foot in it since Yu Jing settled the Yamen in Binyang. He is a stubborn man. If he didn't capture the city by himself, he doesn't need to be there by himself.
It was Wu Shengjun's job to show off his authority there.
"The grain is left with the pacifying envoy's yamen. All we need to do is get enough food for Wu Shengjun. Now doing grain business in Guangnan will be struck by lightning. All the silk and porcelain that are going to be shipped overseas must be kept and resold to Guangzhou Hainan.
The merchants used it as military supplies, leaving the linen and cotton cloth for the women and children, and the copper coins for the pacification envoys' Yamen. The quantity is too large, and we can't transport it away... There is no room to load it on the big ship..."
Yun Zheng and a group of civil servants strolled and inspected in Penn City. Although he was a military leader, he was still a junior in front of the sophisticated civil servants. He walked humbly behind several big bosses, wearing a blue shirt and plain scholar attire.
, which made him not stand out in the crowd. Although the folding fan in his hand was a little conspicuous, some civil servants thought it was a young man's romantic act and didn't care.
"Changsheng! Nong Zhigao was defeated. Where do you think he will go? The Privy Council led the army on an expedition. I wonder if there will be any danger?" Yu Jing looked at the minions he brought with him who were transporting grain, and nodded with satisfaction.
I asked Yunzheng about Nong Zhigao’s funeral.
"An Daogong, Nong Zhigao was defeated miserably at the gates of Binyang City. The number of men who escaped with him was less than a thousand, and the rest were all killed under the city. The Privy Council led the Western Army to pursue them all the way. Naturally, there was no problem. It was just a matter of time to catch Nong Zhigao.
It’s a matter of time.”
Yang Wei sighed and said: "The rebels made trouble this time, and Liang Nan was severely damaged. If we want to restore the peace of the past, I'm afraid I won't be able to make contributions without ten years of rest and recuperation!"
Sun Mian continued: "Since ancient times, military disasters have been the most terrifying disasters. This time the bandits have caused chaos. Bandits have sprung up in Liangnan. Countless villages and fortresses have been built one after another to protect themselves. The government can no longer control them. This is the most difficult thing."
matter."
Yun Zheng pointed his fan at the soldiers of Wu Shengjun standing on the city wall and said: "The reason why I gave up chasing Nong Zhigao is actually because I was worried that after the army crossed the border, the natives would not listen to the imperial teachings and think they were righteous. If this goes on, there will still be war between the two souths.
Since Mr. An Daogong has the power to fight the rebellion this time, he can give orders to Wu Shengjun. As long as there are those who disobey the orders, a large army will naturally go to quell them. All the princes are the pillars of the country. If they can't do the job of counterinsurgency and killing people, is it possible?
Have you forgotten that Wu Shengjun is still here?
We civil servants are not all envoys who can only educate the people and shepherd one area. We also have powerful armies that can march thousands of miles and rain down thunder. Therefore, you can reorganize your government according to your own wishes. If there is anyone who refuses to be educated, just invite him with a piece of paper.
Evil people will be punished by evil people."
Liang Xi, the imperial censor who came from the capital to supervise the army, applauded and said: "In this way, Guangnan has no worries. Wu Shengjun is stationed here. Let's see who dares to have different intentions again!"
A group of people came to the treasury chatting and laughing. Wu Shengjun's seizures were piled up here. Today, they said they were observing the public sentiment, but in fact they were here to check the accounts. These things cannot be kept in Wu Shengjun for a long time. This is a truth that everyone understands.
Including Yunzheng himself.
This matter naturally requires Yu Jing to be in charge and Liang Xi to handle it. Otherwise, it will still cause disputes in the court and lead to impeachment. As long as the interests of one party are not satisfied, there will be big trouble.
Su Xun held the account book and pointed it out to Yu Jing and Liang Xi with a smile. After these officials read the account book, Liang Xi suddenly laughed and said: "The account book is full of errors and omissions. I will give you one more day to rearrange the account book!"
As soon as these words came out, all the civil servants present burst out laughing. Yun Zheng and Su Xun were also overjoyed. Yun Zheng cupped his hands towards Liang Xi and said: "Mr. Qingyun, Wu Shengjun came to fight this time for the purpose of training troops, not to gain wealth.
As long as you give me enough military supplies and food, the rest of the seizures will naturally be handed over to appease the local area. These things are actually the people's wealth and wealth of the two southern people that Nong Zhigao robbed. Wu Shengjun is not a scourge that swallows the money and food of his own people.
Things still can't be done.
Look, the whole Wu Shengjun army is impatiently waiting for your summons. The main way for Wu Shengjun to earn money is to annihilate Buchen. Wu Shengjun accepts your good intentions. As long as Qingyun Gong can be a little more cautious in the ensuing battle to suppress the bandits.
Yun Zheng is so grateful for his eyes."
Liang Xi looked at the mountains of grain and various items in front of him with his hands behind his back, turned around and said to Yun Zheng: "You have a heart, how can I forget my righteousness? You don't use the wealth of the good people, but you never forget those who are disobedient."
Sir, what if I take over this relationship? In troubled times, heavy codes are used, I still know this principle."
Yu Jing chuckled and said: "The Nong bandits started an uprising, and the two brothers Huang Shimi and Huang Hua followed closely. This is a major crime to destroy the nine clans. The Nong clan dared to reject my goodwill when I first arrived in Guizhou.
That is, they are determined to go against the imperial court. There is also the Huang family in Lingnan, which has been a powerful family for many generations. Now that Huang Shimi and Huang Hua have emerged, don't think about escaping unscathed. Changsheng, your military resources can be obtained from them.
The family is out of control. No matter what you do, I believe that no one will dare to do anything for me. The Huang family will say a word.
Remember to put these two people into the prison car, Your Majesty will be eager to see them!"
Peng Jiu stepped out from behind Yun Zheng and said: "General, I will leave this matter to Beizhi and Guirenpu. Binyang City and Beizhi have not tried their best. This kind of errands must be done by Beizhi."
Yan Xiong, the newly appointed Guizhou Prefectural Deputy Sentencing Secretary, said with a grim smile: "General Peng, you come to fight. As for the rest, it is better to leave it to me, the Sentencing Division. As long as you open the Nong family and the Huang family's fortress, the rest will be done."
Naturally, I will help you handle it properly."
Peng Jiu was not a fool, so why couldn't he hear Yan Xiong's good words? He grabbed Yan Xiong's hand and said: "I, old Peng, are just a rough man. If I can't do this kind of thing well, I'll have to thank Judge Yan."
, Haha, I, Old Peng, will naturally do the rough work of opening the fortress. As for the ability of the Criminal Division, I can trust him a hundred times. Why don't we set off now? I have prepared all the boxes..."
When Yun Zheng was trying to make a fortune in Guangnan, Di Qing had already led five thousand elites to chase Nong Zhigao to the sky and to the ground. As long as Nong Zhigao organized an army, he would be immediately defeated by Di Qing, and
Yun Zheng thought the same, and Di Qing was also determined to eliminate all the rebellious forces in Guangnan Road. The reason why Nong Zhigao was able to escape death several times was probably the result of Di Qing's deliberate indulgence.
The two fought as they walked, and the smoke billowed all the way from Pennsylvania to Guihua Prefecture. When they arrived in Guihua Prefecture, Nong Zhigao's military strength suddenly increased, and he actually withstood Di Qing's attack in Wue Cave, and even
Signs of advancing the battle line towards the Song Dynasty.
Emperor Zhao Zhen of the Song Dynasty was in a good mood. He was walking in the garden with his son in his arms. The child, who was only a few months old, was fat and cute. He was completely different from the three children who died in infancy. His chubby little hands were holding Zhao Zhen's.
Zhao Zhen, who was still content with his beard, immediately put on a sad face, pointed his finger at his son's mouth and said: "Yesterday I pulled off a lock of my father's beard, why don't you let go of this today?"
Can’t it be done?”
Lanlan smiled and freed the emperor's beard from her son's hand, patted it affectionately, and then said to the emperor sternly: "Your Majesty, Xu'er is young now. It's okay for you to get closer to him, but wait until the child knows about personnel.
, it must not be like this. Your Majesty's heirs are in trouble. In the future, you will not be able to select one from a hundred to inherit the inheritance of your ancestors. In this case, when we have a child, we must ensure that the child can become a good person, and must become a good person. We must not pamper him too much, let alone
Don’t let this child outlast our women.”
Zhao Zhen laughed and said, "Why is my beloved concubine so strict?"
Lan Lan sighed and said: "I can no longer hope that Your Majesty will become a strict father and concubine, so I cannot be a loving mother."
Zhao Zhen was overjoyed when he heard this. Seeing that Zou Tong had prepared the imperial edict, he put Zhao Xu in Lan Lan's arms and said, "As long as you have two more children, Xu'er won't have such a difficult time."
After sitting on the royal chariot, Zhao Zhen was still very happy. There has been good news recently. The Wu Shengjun he accidentally released was able to behead 30,000 people at Hot Spring Pass. Although the announcement stated that it was 100,000, Zhao Zhen knew the exact situation of the battle.
, Yu Jing's secret memorial text has made it very clear that this was deliberately exaggerated to boost morale and popular sentiment. Today is not the day to go to court, but Pang Ji, Han Qi and others have jointly appeared in court. I don't know what else happened.
Happened, such a solemn scene made Zhao Zhen's heart lift again.
Trying to get rid of the bad thoughts, he continued to think about the Battle of Hot Spring Pass: Whether it was beheading 30,000 people or 100,000 people, this was a real victory. Now, it was time for Di Qing to go to Guangnan.
, so there are two powerful armies of the Song Dynasty there. No matter how ferocious Nong Zhigao is, he cannot be arrogant for long. This is the consensus of the court ministers.
Zou Tong kept laughing, and Zhao Zhen laughed and scolded: "Why are you so happy, my slave? Tell me."
Zou Tong smiled and said: "Guan family, I happened to hear some good news when I passed by the political hall today. I wonder if you would like to hear it?"
Zhao Zhen said strangely: "Those ministers should be very careful with you. How did you hear that?"
Zou Tong smiled and said: "Ms. Pang's voice can almost collapse the roof of the house. Even if you don't want to listen, you can't do it."
"Tell me quickly, what kind of news can make a veteran like Pang Ji lose his composure."
After Zou Tong ordered the eunuchs carrying the imperial ban to put the emperor down, he straightened his robes, knelt down respectfully and congratulated: "Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty on the great victory in Guangnan! (To be continued)
