Lu Wenyang's rebellion only lasted for a few days. Even before the news about Lu Wenyang's Qingjun side spread, Lu Wenyang was defeated. It looked like Lu Wenyang cooperated with Chu Yi to deceive a large number of people in the capital.
of officials.
This time, there are dozens of officials implicated because of Lu Wenyang, not counting many officials on the Grand Canal front line.
Although it is said that Lu Wenyang fought to the death and transferred most of his confidants from both sides of the Grand Canal in order to clear the emperor's side, these confidants were far or near from the capital. When Lu Wenyang was defeated, there were even confidants from Jiangnan who led Ma Shun.
Rushing towards the capital along the Grand Canal.
Therefore, the Lu Wenyang Rebellion involved at least hundreds of officials from the capital to the localities. However, now that the capital has stabilized, the next step is naturally the locals.
After Lu Wenyang was captured, the position of Governor of Water Transport naturally became vacant. This position was prepared by Chu Yi for Bi Heng, so Chu Yi directly petitioned the emperor to appoint Bi Heng as the new Governor of Water Transport.
Zhu Houzhao naturally had nothing to hesitate about the candidates recommended by Chu Yi. In addition, Bi Heng was also a senior minister. He even relied on his own ability to step up from the local level to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry. What is his ability? Zhu Houzhao
I still know quite a bit about it.
Coupled with Chu Yi's recommendation, Zhu Houzhao directly ordered the appointment of Bi Heng as the governor of water transportation. In order to prevent the remnants of Lu Wenyang from causing trouble on the Grand Canal, he even dispatched a team of Yulin Guards from among the Twelve Guards to accompany Bi Heng to Tianjin in person.
Wei took office.
In fact, the hundreds of people in the Habayashi Guards team will not be of much use if they really encounter any trouble. However, the Habayashi Guards are the emperor's personal guards. Generally speaking, they rarely leave the capital. Now they are sent by the emperor to escort them.
When Bi Heng took office, all fools knew that the emperor valued and favored Bi Heng. As long as they didn't really have any knowledge, no one would jump out to embarrass Bi Heng.
What's more important is that the imperial court's tens of thousands of troops, led by the guard commander Han Kun, seized Lu Wenyang's ship early and headed straight for Tianjin Guard along the Grand Canal.
Tianjin Guard is Lu Wenyang's home base, but Lu Wenyang only left thousands of people to guard Tianjin Guard. In fact, there is no problem with Lu Wenyang's move, as long as he can successfully capture the capital, kill Chu Yi, and even replace
The Son of Heaven, when the time comes, he will naturally be the most powerful person in the world.
As for the Tianjin Guard, it doesn't matter how many troops are left behind, let alone if they lose.
The Tianjin Guard was left behind by Lu Wenyang's younger brother, Lu Wenlu, who, like Lu Wende, was Lu Wenyang's two main arms. However, while Lu Wende controlled the army and horses for Lu Wenyang, Lu Wenlu controlled government affairs for Lu Wenyang.
The battle for the capital came to an end too quickly. After the first battle, Lu Wenyang ended up in a complete defeat, which probably not many people could have imagined.
When Han Kun led the army straight towards Tianjin Guard, Lu Wenlu stayed behind and was busy preparing grain and logistics for Lu Wenyang.
From Lu Wenlu's point of view, the capital was difficult to conquer. Even if Lu Wenyang could hook up with the officials in the city, he might not be able to capture the capital in three to five days, so he still had to prepare the necessary food and fodder.
On this day, Lu Wenlu was checking the accounts in the mansion and preparing to send people to load the prepared grain into ships. Suddenly, he saw a servant stumbling over from outside the gate with a look of panic on his face.
When he saw Lu Wenlu, the servant couldn't help but said with great fear: "Master, there are many ships coming on the canal, and there are many soldiers and horses on them!"
Lu Wenlu couldn't help being stunned when he heard the words, his expression changed slightly, and his mind was spinning. This Grand Canal was their Lu family's territory. It could be said that they might have heard about the soldiers and horses coming from the south of the Yangtze River, but the only thing that came from
The soldiers and horses in the capital.
"Could it be that my brother captured the capital so quickly?"
After being stunned for a moment, Lu Wenlu took a deep breath and looked at the servant and said, "Can you see clearly what the banner of the person coming is?"
Since a large army appeared, it would inevitably carry the banner of a general, so Lu Wenlu asked this question.
The servant shook his head with a confused expression and said to Lu Wenlu: "Master, I don't know how to read at all!"
Lu Wenlu couldn't help but be stunned. He really asked blindly. How many of the servants around him were literate? He actually asked the other party whose flag it was. It would be strange if the other party knew it.
.
Lu Wenlu said slowly: "Come, prepare the sedan, I want to go to the port to check!"
Soon a sedan was carried away by several strong bearers, and headed straight towards the port surrounded by dozens of elite soldiers on both sides.
Needless to say, the big ship mentioned by the servant earlier came from the capital, and the tens of thousands of people on board were also the soldiers and horses of the capital camp commanded by Han Kun.
Taking advantage of the prestige of the victory, Han Kun led his army down the canal and arrived at the Tianjin port in just one day.
Standing on the big ship, he looked at the port in front of him. Except for some large and small ships, there was no defense at all. This made Han Kun breathe a slight sigh of relief.
It was the most dangerous time when the ship docked. As a result, the city of Tianjin seemed to have no defense, but it allowed him to avoid the most dangerous step.
Han Kun said to the ordering soldiers in a deep voice: "Fly the ordering flag, and the ordering army will abandon the ship and go ashore immediately!"
As the flag waved, many generals received the order on the big ships and ordered their soldiers to disembark.
It was only a matter of minutes before the first batch of soldiers landed. Han Kun stepped on the ground and looked at Tianjin City in the distance under the protection of his own soldiers, with a look of joy on his face.
According to the information obtained, there are only a thousand people left in Tianjin City at most, and he has brought tens of thousands of troops this time. Even if he attacks Tianjin City by force, he will be able to attack Tianjin City in one fell swoop.
Now that the army has landed, the city of Tianjin can be said to be in the palm of his hand.
Thinking that Chu Yi had specially ordered him to lead an army to seize Tianjin Guard, Han Kun couldn't help but feel grateful in his heart. This was clearly to give him credit.
All fools know that with Lu Wenyang's defeat, no matter who comes with tens of thousands of troops, Tianjin Guards can easily capture it, but this is military merit.
If Chu Yi hadn't named him by name, Han Kun would definitely not be able to compete with those generals who had the support of the Honorable Group behind them. Therefore, looking at Tianjin City, Han Kun was not only grateful to Chu Yi but also grateful to Chu Yi, and he felt that a man would die for his confidant.
Feeling.
Just when Han Kun led the army to land, Lu Wenlu also arrived at the port in a sedan. However, the huge noise of the army landing made many people working at the port panic and naturally dispersed.
As Lu Wenlu was sitting in the sedan, he could only hear the chaos outside, and a famous water transport man ran past beside him.
Surprised in his heart, Lu Wenlu got down from the sedan chair and saw figures running around in panic. Lu Wenlu frowned and felt something bad in his heart.
Lu Wenlu took a step forward, stopped a man and said, "What's going on? What's wrong with everyone?"
The man was running with everyone like a headless fly. When he was stopped, he almost instinctively wanted to curse, but when he saw Lu Wenlu, who was dressed in silk and satin, and the dozens of strong soldiers beside him,
At that moment, the curse word reached his lips and he swallowed it down. He looked at Lu Wenlu and said, "This adult is so small that he doesn't know what's going on. Everyone is running away, so naturally the little one will follow suit."
Lu Wenlu couldn't help but frown after hearing this, and the man quickly said: "But I heard someone said that a large army seemed to have landed. We were afraid of being attacked, so we ran away."
Lu Wenlu waved his hand and said: "Get out!"
The man ran away as if he was being pardoned, while Lu Wenlu strode forward and headed straight for the port. He only went a few hundred meters away. As he turned a corner, the huge port appeared in sight.
Lu Wenlu only saw a line of large ships on the canal approaching the port. Soldiers were quickly landing one after another. Before the port, a dark group of soldiers had successfully landed.
As Lu Wenlu's personal guard, Bai Mang couldn't help but frowned and said, "Sir, don't these troops look like the soldiers and horses that the Governor brought to the capital?"
There is naturally a difference between the soldiers and horses in the Beijing camp and the local guards. Even Lu Wenlu can see this.
At this moment, Lu Wenlu glanced at Bai Mang and said to a soldier: "Go and check and see if the master has successfully broken through the capital and sent someone back?"
Although this possibility is unlikely, Lu Wenlu at least has not thought about the news that Lu Wenyang has been defeated at this time.
After all, it was only one day before Lu Wenyang left for the capital. Even tens of thousands of pigs should not have been defeated so quickly.
The soldier approached the army and was naturally discovered by Han Kun and others. He was taken down immediately. From the soldier's mouth, he learned that Tianjin City was left behind, and Lu Wenyang's clan brother, Lu Wenlu, was actually in front. Han Kun couldn't help but
Laughing loudly.
Soon Han Kun led his guards and horses straight to where Lu Wenlu was. When Lu Wenlu reacted, he was already surrounded.
Looking at the slightly flustered Lu Wenlu, Han Kun looked like a little white rabbit, grinning and saying: "Haha, God helps me. I thought it would take a lot of effort, but I never expected to find it here.
When we get to Mr. Lu, Tianjin City can be easily destroyed!"
After listening to Han Kun's words, Lu Wenlu's heart skipped a beat and said, "What do you call the general? Where does he come from?"
Han Kun looked at Lu Wenlu with great interest and said: "Lord Lu, listen carefully. I am one of the commanders of the Four Guards in Tengxiang. Han Kun came to take over the Tianjin Guards on the orders of General Manager Chu Yichu...
"
"Why, this is impossible. The governor led a large army to attack the city. How could the Chu thieves have the opportunity to send people to guard Tianjin!"
Hearing Lu Wenlu mention Lu Wenyang, Han Kun said with disdain: "How can Lu Wenyang be the opponent of General Manager Chu? General Manager Chu just opened a big net, but Lu Wenyang jumped in obediently. Just last night, Lu Wenyang and others
Everyone was still captured."
When Lu Wenlu heard this, he felt as if five thunders were striking his head, and his body swayed and he almost lay on his back.
Looking at Lu Wenlu's expression as if he was mourning for his heir, Han Kun waved his hand and said: "Get everyone for me, general!"
How dare those personal guards resist in the face of soldiers and horses that look like wolves and tigers? They even put down their weapons obediently and surrendered. Otherwise, the end seems to be death.
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible..."
The lost Lu Wenlu seemed to be a little crazy and kept mumbling.
Han Kun asked people to escort Lu Wenlu and lead his troops straight to Tianjin Guard. You must know that he came this time. On the other hand, he also had an important task, which was to protect the tens of millions of taels of silver that Lu Wenyang had kidnapped.
To ensure safety, Tianjin City was also sealed off, and they were waiting quietly for the new governor of water transportation appointed by the court to preside over the seizure of Lu Wenyang's mansion.
Everyone has no idea how much grain silver can be found in Lu Wenyang's house, but one thing is certain, that is, Lu Wenyang has been sitting in the position of Governor of Water Transport for nearly ten years. During these ten years, what role did Lu Wenyang have?
I'm afraid no one knows how much silver has been fished out of this flowing river of gold.
But just by looking at Lu Wenyang's big arm and bribing Chu Yi, you know that Lu Wenyang's net worth is definitely not simple. Even if he didn't get tens of millions of taels of silver, no one would be surprised.
If it is true that tens of millions of taels of silver were confiscated from Lu Wenyang's mansion, plus the tens of millions of taels of silver that were robbed by Lu Wenyang on the way, then adding the two together, Tianjin Guards would have two to three thousand
Wanliang's grain is silver.
This is a quite terrifying figure, enough to be worth the tax revenue of the Ming Dynasty for several years.
If not, how could a mere Tianjin Guard have allowed Chu Yi to send Han Kun and lead an army of tens of thousands?
In the final analysis, what is worth dispatching so many soldiers and horses is not the Tianjin Guard's rebels, but the wealth within the Tianjin Guard. With such a lot of wealth, it is best to be guarded by a large army to make people feel at ease.
Lu Wenlu had been captured. After learning the news of Lu Wenyang's defeat, the remaining rebels had no idea of ​​resistance and were easily captured. At this point, the four gates of Tianjin Acropolis fell to Han Kun's leadership.
In the hands of the army.
Han Kun immediately sent soldiers and horses to guard the Caoyun Treasury, Lu Wenyang's residence and other courtyards. Under such strict defense, not even a fly could fly in and out, even if it was tens of millions of taels.
The silver pattern is tempting, but under the shock of this large army, even the most daring person would not dare to take advantage of the huge property left by Lu Wenyang at this time.
The day after Tianjin Wei was captured by Han Kun, a large ship docked at the port carrying the newly appointed governor of water transportation, Bi Heng, and hundreds of Emperor's troops escorting him. Han Kun, who received the news, stood guard at the port and saw Bi Heng.
He came and greeted him quickly.
