Haining Marquis Zheng Jiwu seized the initiative and sent troops faster than Li Yuchun.
Although Li Yuchun sent his cousin General Li Yuanshan to lead 3,000 men as the vanguard, before the troops left Jiashan, Haining Marquis Zheng Jiwu and Haiyan Bozhu Dagoutou had already dispatched their entire army, commanding 1,000 Haiyan troops, plus several other troops who had surrendered. People and horses took boats directly from the sea to Songjiang.
Before Li Yuanshan left Jiaxing, Zheng Jiwu had successfully raided the Jinshan Acropolis in Songjiang Prefecture. He sent word of victory, beheaded 800 people, captured 1,000 prisoners, and surrendered more than 5,000 puppet Ming rebels.
After receiving the report, Yan Wogong, who was in charge of Jiaxing, reported to the governor of Hangzhou, Zhang Cunren, and the governor Xiao Qiyuan. At the same time, he reported to Boluo who was already on the way. At the same time, he immediately took a boat to Jinshanwei.
When Boluo arrived in Tongxiang County, another memorial was delivered to him by Yan Wogong.
"Songjiang Prefecture has been recovered, Zheng Jiwu has captured Jinshan Guards, Huating, Zhu Goutang has restored Qingcun, and Shanghai. Yan Wogong has recruited Shen Pan, the guard of Huating, Xie Mingyu, Ru Shiba and many others."
"Shen Youlong broke the city wall and hanged himself to death, Chen Zilong drowned himself, Xia Yunyi jumped over the city wall, and He Fuyuan escaped."
Yan Wogong recruited Shen Pan and others, and after retaking Songjiang Prefecture, he gave Shen Pan the title of general soldier and still guarded the city with the title of deputy general. He also appointed Ru Shiba as a staff general to help guard Shanghai, and Xie Mingyu as a staff general to assist in guarding Jinshan. Wei, and Li Yuanshan, the general under Li Yuchun, was stationed in Qingpu...
"After Hsinchu recovered the cities in Songjiang Prefecture, he immediately purged the rebellious officials, gentry and landlords, executed more than a thousand rebels, ransacked more than 3,000 homes, and issued hair-cutting orders in various places in Songjiang. Shaving my hair has begun to show results."
Bolo looked at this report and was very surprised.
"This Mr. Yan is really amazing. If he doesn't take action, it will be shocking. He actually put down the rebellion in Songjiang Mansion so quickly."
"He is indeed a talent." Baiyintu also said.
Tong Yangjia, on the other hand, believed that the rebellion of Shen Youlong and others was just like the rebellion of Tu Xiangmei and others in Jiaxing Prefecture. It was just a mob riot and could be quelled by one hundred and eighty-banner cavalry.
Mr. Yan just took the credit and took advantage.
Bolo didn't take it seriously, "Anyway, Mr. Yan also works for the imperial court and is a loyal servant. I think if you bring him to Beijing this time, you have to ask the imperial court for him to join the flag."
"Tu Guobao is incompetent. He is responsible for Su Song's chaos. I think after entering Beijing, Yan Wogong can replace Tu Guobao as the governor of Jiangning."
"Indeed, there are not many Han slaves who are so loyal and capable. Fan Wencheng is one, Hong Chengchou is also one, and Yan Wo Gong is the next one."
"Now that Songjiang is at peace, we can let Mr. Yan go north to Suzhou first. We are not in a hurry."
"Well, the weather is crazy. The sun is too hot. I'm sending an order to the whole army to rest for three days."
······
Guilin.
The first king of Jingjiang was Zhu Shouqian, the nephew of Taizu in the Ming Dynasty. Among the kingdoms of the Ming Dynasty, the Jingjiang Kingdom had Zhu Xinglong, the king of Nanchang, as its ancestor, Zhu Wenzheng as the second generation, and the first Jingjiang king, Zhu Shouqian, as the third generation. He is the only vassal in the Ming Dynasty who was not granted the title by a descendant of Zhu Yuanzhang, and his status has always been relatively special, lower than the prince, but higher than the county king.
The salary is as high as the prince's, the official is half of the prince, the rice is 20,000 shi per year, the banknote is 10,000 yuan, and the rest is half of the prince.
When Zhu Shouqian was first granted the title of King of Jingjiang, he was also awarded a gold book and gold treasures of the prince's standard, and he was also granted the title of Prince without farmland.
It has been passed down from generation to generation for more than two hundred years.
At this time, Ding Kuichu, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and Qu Shishu, the governor of Guangxi, had already held a ceremony to read out the edict and sent congratulations. This was an open acceptance of King Lu's supervision of the country, and the two governors, Ding Kuichu and Qu Shishu, then went north in person to visit the court.
Congratulations.
However, after Ding Kuichu learned in Quzhou that Jianguo had proposed the Northern Expedition, he decided to return to Guangdong. Only the representative of Qu Shishu, the governor of Guangxi, continued to go north to pay his respects.
Under this circumstance, the original position of King Lu as the supervisor of the country was already unshakable in Guangdong and Guangxi.
But Zhu Hengjia, King of Jingjiang in Guilin, recently heard some rumors that King Lu led his army in the Northern Expedition, suffered a series of defeats in western Zhejiang, and was beaten by a deputy general named Li Yuchun.
After hearing the news, he was overjoyed and summoned his close confidants Sun Jinding and others to conspire, "Now there is no owner in the world. When my ancestors first enfeoffed the land, they said that Guangxi was not willing to enfeoff the smoky land. At that time,
Empress Ma comforted the envoy and gave him a special gift of ceremonial guards in the Edong Palace."
"If there is no one in the world and there is no one in the East Palace, then I, Prince Jingjiang, already have the crown prince's guard, so am I not the East Palace now?"
"I, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, oversee the country since my ancestors established the constitution, so why shouldn't I?"
"What qualifications do King Yiyang and King Lu have to supervise the country? How worthy are they?"
Anyway, the King of Jingjiang always means the same thing. Everyone’s surname is Zhu and they are all descendants of Zhu Wusi. Why can’t I be the prisoner and the emperor?
King Fu, King Lu, King Yiyang, King Lu, etc. have successively claimed the title of supervising the country, but they have all proven that they are not good enough. Therefore, I, the King of Jingjiang, have to take action in this world. After all, Queen Ma awarded my ancestor Zhu Shouqian the Eastern Palace Ceremony.
Wei's.
Sun Jinding is also the kind of sycophant who usually accompanies the King of Jingjiang, and he is a criminal who was exiled to Guangxi. At this time, he could only think about the four words "Conglongzhigong" and couldn't care about anything else. He shouted loudly at the moment
He agreed and offered advice, "To rebuild the imperial court, we must first have soldiers. Yang Guowei, the commander-in-chief of Guangxi, has always been on good terms with His Highness, so we can call him to help with important events."
King Jingjiang immediately summoned Yang Guowei. After being tempted by Conglong Hero, he could not hold back. After thinking about it, the world was in chaos. If King Lu was really defeated in western Zhejiang, then there would be no master in the world and Jingjiang would be left alone.
The king is indeed qualified to conquer the world.
Yang Guowei was already the commander-in-chief. Originally, the Hongguang Dynasty arranged for Huang Binqing to take over this position. He had to be dismissed because of some previous crimes. As a result, the Qing army moved south too quickly. Emperor Hongguang had no time to take care of himself, so Huang Binqing did not go south anymore. So he
Continue to occupy the position of the commander-in-chief of Guangxi.
But I am always worried that one day another general will come from the north.
Now think about it, why not just support the King of Jingjiang? If it works out, then he will be a minister of the dragon. In addition, the King of Jingjiang generously promised to make him a prince and retire with the country in the future. Yang Guowei immediately decided
Done.
Then Gu Yi and others from the Guilin Prefecture were brought in. They also wanted to take advantage of the chaos and become Conglong's heroes, so they persuaded them to advance in three chapters and added fuel to the flames.
Zhu Hengjia was impatient for a long time. He persuaded and said three words in one day and accepted the advice without waiting for the next day.
Then the next day, he put on the yellow robe that he had prepared early, sat facing south, and called himself the supervisor of the country, and the year was Hongwu 287.
"Change Guilin, the capital of Guangxi, to Xijing."
"I worship Yang Guowei as a general and grant him the title of Uncle Xingye."
"Add Sun Jinding as a bachelor of Dongge University, and Gu Yi as an official to Shizhong..."
Guan Shouzhen, the chief envoy of Guangxi, and Yu Chao, who promoted the teachings of Taoism, participated in and supported him, and were all awarded important positions.
At the same time, envoys were sent to Fujian, Guizhou and other places to issue edicts and confer officials, and to call upon Liuzhou, Qingyuan, Zuojiang, and Youjiang forty-five caves to come.
He also ordered people to go to Ding Kuichu, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Qu Shishu, the governor of Guangxi, and Zheng Feng, the governor of Guangxi, to summon them.
Ding Kuichu came back from Quzhou and arrived in Wuzhou with Zheng Fenggang, the inspector. When they heard the news about the usurpation of Jing Fan, they were all shocked. Although Ding Kuichu had previously planned to use the land of Guangdong and Guangxi to support King Gui and supervise the country, but when
After Lu Jianguo launched his momentum in the north, he immediately stopped thinking about it and even went north to congratulate him personally to show his loyalty.
Now, despite all the calculations, a King Jingjiang actually appeared in the backyard and wanted to be the prisoner of the country. The Ming Dynasty clan would be dead, and it would not be his turn.
"Isn't this nonsense?" Zheng Feng's beard trembled angrily.
They are all Guangxi officials, so they naturally know how much this King of Jingjiang is. If a wise king like the King of Tang wanted to stand up and lead everyone in troubled times, it would make sense, but who doesn't know who this King of Jingjiang is?
goods.
"I'm so frustrated and crazy." Ding Kuichu was also very angry. He immediately called his flag officer, took out a flag and an order and handed it to him, asking him to rush to Si'en Counselor Chen Bangfu immediately and ask him to stay on guard.
Then he took the king's command flag and gave it to another flag officer, "You quickly take the king's flag to Zuoyoujiang and inform the Chieftain of Forty-Fifth Cave that all wolf soldiers are not allowed to obey the orders of King Jingjiang."
After doing this, he issued the king's order flag and ordered all the brave officers and soldiers near Wuzhou to gather in Wuzhou to help defend the city.
Ding Kuichu also sent Supervisor Biao to intercept King Jingjiang's envoy, and quickly reported to Shaoxing, and asked Qu Shichun to return to Guangxi as soon as possible to help suppress the rebellion.
For a time, the situation in Wuyue was turbulent, and Guangxi in the rear stopped fighting again.
King Jingjiang of Guilin did not expect that Ding Kuichu would come back in time at this critical moment, and his attitude would be so determined.
He first sent Gu Yi as an envoy, carrying an edict to Wuzhou, and worshiped Ding Kuichu as a scholar of Wuyingdian and the minister of the Ministry of War, and then the governor of Fujian and Guangdong, and gave him the earl of Nanning. He also worshiped Qu Shishu as a scholar of Dongge and the minister of the Ministry of Punishment.
I want to win over the two of them through high-ranking officials and generous salaries.
But what he didn't expect was that as soon as Gu Yi entered Wuzhou, he was captured by Ding Kuichu's orders, and then he was pushed out and beheaded without saying a word. His head was hung on the top of Wuzhou City. Ding Kuichu even issued a reprimand.
When King Jingjiang heard the news, he was almost stunned. He couldn't understand where Ding Kuichu had the courage to rebel against him like this?
"I want to conquer Ding Ni myself!"
"Draft a decree to appoint Yan Tianfeng and Fan Youxian as generals and serve as the left and right vanguards. We will go south along the Lijiang River, first take Wuzhou, and then go to Guangdong. Xingye Bo Yang Guowei will stay in Guilin in the name of the prince!"
General Si'en, Chen Bangfu, is the son and daughter of Sun Jinding. He usually fights fiercely, but at this time, he has more information than King Jingjiang. When Ding Qu went north, Chen Bangfu sent his brothers to escort his family to the north. At this time, he had just
He followed Ding Kuichu back to Guangxi. When he was in Quzhou, he saw with his own eyes that Huguang, Guangdong, Fujian, and Zhejiang all supported the establishment of Lu Jianguo with great momentum. They all said that Lu Jianguo was wise, resolute, decisive, and the Mingzhu of ZTE.
When Chen Bangfu met Ding Kuichu's flag officer, he did not stand still. Instead, he immediately ordered his elite troops to sail north to Guilin. The bow of the boat was specially decorated with a sign saying "Welcome Rui Jia" to paralyze the King of Jingjiang.
He said that he wanted to fight against rebellion for the country, and at the same time he wrote a letter to his in-law Sun Jinding, saying that he was willing to lead his troops to support the army and welcome the prisoner country to Wuzhou.
As a result, the people there really believed it, and their warships easily sailed to the front of the Jingjiang King's army. Then, at midnight, they suddenly launched an attack. Chen Bangfu took the lead and charged into the Jingjiang King's army, setting fires everywhere. The Jingjiang King's personal troops were just a group of new recruits.
There seemed to be a lot of people in the rabble, but when they were attacked, they immediately broke up and fled. King Jingjiang fled back to Guilin in embarrassment.
Chen Bangfu captured his son and daughter-in-law Sun Jinding alive, cut off his head with a knife, and had his men pickle it with lime before sending it to Tokyo to let the elders see clearly.
Chen Bangfu took advantage of the situation and pursued him to the gates of Guilin City. Ding Kuichu also arrived with his supervisor personally.
After surrounding Guilin, Jiao Lian, who was under Yang Guowei's powerful army, took the initiative to send people to surrender. It turned out that he and Yang Guowei had an old grudge. Seeing that the situation was now difficult, he decisively betrayed his superiors.
In the middle of the night, Jiao Lian personally led his followers and used ropes to pull Chen Bangfu's elite servants into the city. Then he opened the city gate, attacked Guilin City in one fell swoop, and captured Yang Guowei and King Jingjiang alive.
So King Jingjiang rebelled, but was defeated within seven days.
Ding Kuichu ordered Chen Bangfu to personally lead troops to escort King Jingjiang, Yang Guowei and his puppet officials to Tokyo.
The fact that the King of Jingjiang in Guangxi claimed to be in charge of the country, but was vindicated by the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi within seven days, quickly spread.
He Tengjiao, the governor of Changsha and Huguang, also soon received the news coming from the north of Lingqu Canal and was deeply shocked.
He did not expect that the old fox Ding Kuichu would support Lu Jianguo so resolutely this time and take action so quickly. Changsha is not far from Guilin.
When He Tengjiao thought of the secret message sent back from Zhejiang, He Tengjiao became a little irritable. His mouth was full of blisters all night long, and it hurt even to drink water.
Lu Jianguo wanted to summon him to serve in the cabinet and asked Zhu Dadian to replace him. He even added the title of Supervisor of seven provinces, two more than his original title of Supervisor of five provinces.
He Tengjiao didn't want to leave Huguang, but what was happening in Guangxi now made him very embarrassed. Zhu Dadian, Du Yinxi and others would be back soon.
"Butler, pack your things and prepare to go to Tokyo."
In the end, He Tengjiao could only sigh. From this incident in Guangxi, he saw the majesty of Lu Jianguo. Guangxi served so loyally from far and high, and I am afraid that the situation is similar here in Huguang. If he refused to leave, he would only
I'm afraid it won't end well.
It was obvious that Du Yinxi finally sided with Lu Jianguo and asked him to go to congratulate the Jianguo. He originally wanted the Jianguo to grant more cheap power to them in Huguang and accept him before.
A series of civilian and military generals were appointed, but who would have thought that he would eventually be eliminated.
This Lu Jianguo is really straightforward and decisive.
But when I think about myself, I am just a civil servant. If I were a general with heavy troops like Zuo Liangyu, I might still be able to resist the decree. But now that Du Yinxi, the governor of Huguang, is not on my side, how can I resist?
?
There is no need to send troops from the east of Zhejiang Province. It is enough to block the 13th Zhongzhen Battalion under the command of Yinxi. Moreover, even if he resists the decree, there are only a few of these generals and generals in Changsha.
I really stand with him.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel discouraged. He had jumped off Zuo Liangyu's boat and shouldered the crisis in Huguang. But now, the situation has just turned around, but he is the first to be kicked out.
