Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 770 Annan's Great Purge

With Gao Pragmatic personally sitting in charge, Annan's "sweeping rebellion" operation gradually came to an end as the political program was implemented step by step. Two types of people became the main targets of this cleansing.

The first type of people does not need to be explained, it is all kinds of "rebels" in the later Li Dynasty, from the "royal family" of the Li family to Zheng Ni, plus all kinds of traitors, except for the Ruan Huang family who "voluntarily surrendered" In addition to the liquidation, almost [-]% of the big families in the Southern Dynasty could not escape, and they were all reduced to targets of purge.

Occasionally, a few families were quick to see the opportunity and voluntarily handed over most of their property, and Gao Wushi ordered an "amnesty" with the power of "making decisions on small matters". They barely saved their lives.

However, the south is easy to clean, and the north is relatively troublesome. After all, the Mo family is nominally on the side of Daming, and is a "loyal minister of several generations".

In this case, you have to pay attention to eating and eating. After all, Gao Yushi does not intend to come to be the King Annan himself, so the relationship on the show must be maintained.

Gao Yushi tried his best, but he had to start with "cleaning up the official style". First came a wave of anti-corruption, and then a wave of anti-evil. Finally, he found that the needed land was not enough, and he even created a "suyong" Come.

Basically, except that there is no obvious robbery, it is only written on the face that "I want a field".

However, his set of "Three Folded Waves of the Dragon Gate" was not in vain. Not only did the administrative efficiency of the officials of the Mo Dynasty increase a lot, but most of the rest were timid and afraid to talk to him, Annan. The Supreme Emperor is against the cowardly and arrogant.

Obviously, high-practical anti-corruption, eradication of evil, and even suyong cannot be so righteous in name, and they must take the opportunity to get rid of a group of relatively rebellious people.

After getting rid of this group of diehards, although there will definitely be some conspirator who are lurking deeply, Gao Yushi is not worried, because after the general situation is established, the conspirators will have no room to operate, and they may be lurking at that time. It's a whole life - I've been lurking all my life, so what's the point, it doesn't matter if I give you a beautiful posthumous title.

If a hypocrite can pretend for a lifetime, then he is not a hypocrite, but a real gentleman. After all, the key to defining a person is to look at his actual actions. Isn't it "unnecessary"?
However, this operation is not completely peaceful. For example, when Gao Wushi gathered the army in Thang Long for reorganization, Zheng Song's missing younger brother Zheng Du came out of Tsinghua for some reason, and preached that Zheng Song was "" Heroes of the Dai Viet people", and gathered more than 2000 people to rebel.

In fact, only about four or five hundred people were taken away when Zheng Du "disappeared". The rest of them were made by some old power officials who were unwilling to be reconciled after being purged by Gao Pragmatic.The family property of this group of people has been confiscated, but there may still be some of the wealth that slipped through the net that has not been cleared in place, and they used it to recruit a group of people to rebel in Qinghua.

At that time, Gao Yushi was going to order the Thang Long garrison to go south to suppress the rebellion. Who knew that Ruan Juan, who was "seconded to garrison" in the south, was moved by the news, and personally led an army of [-] to go north to Qinghua overnight, defeating Zheng Du, who was not stable. , even he himself died in the rebellious army, and a human head was almost unrecognizable when it was found - this fellow saw that the situation was not good at the time, and was about to abscond with makeup, but was given to him by a Ruan Juan soldier. Stopped, and because he changed the clothes of the soldiers, he was not found for several days after his death.

Ruan Juan's performance is very good, although even Gao Yushi can't tell whether he is sincere or fake, but he did this, and he did it so cleanly, it would be impossible not to reward him.

Gao Wushi hesitated for a while, and gave him an official rank in the name of Annan Metropolitan Commander, and gave him two hundred Longqing Type [-] muskets by the way—theoretically, the ratio of firearms in Mo Yulin's and Ruan Juan's troops Being strictly controlled, this reward is really an exception.

However, Jinghua's weapons are all ammunition specially equipped and produced by Jinghua. After Gao Yushi mastered Annan, saltpeter and sulfur were listed as strategic materials, and private people were not allowed to hold them in large quantities. The limited firecracker and fireworks manufacturers were also strictly controlled, so If Ruan Juan's two hundred muskets were not to be used as fire sticks, it still depends on his face.

Besides, two hundred muskets can't do anything big, and at most they can equip the guards. If Gao Wushi is worried about this, he might as well stay in Annan and not leave.

Zheng Du rebelled in the south, and the Mo family in the north also had a little trouble. Wu Gongji, the son of Wu Wenmi, the old guard of Xuanguang, rebelled against the wolf soldiers of the Cen family who were ordered by Gao Pragmatic to "eliminate evil" in the local area.

However, this old man Wu Gongji has great ambition and lack of talent, and has no clear understanding of his own strength. Although relying on his father's prestige in Xuanguang for decades, he quickly pulled up a real number of more than 8000, known as [-]. In the end, Cen Ling, who thought his face had been cut, led five thousand wolf soldiers from Sicheng Prefecture to smash it in one fell swoop.

Cen Ling was very angry at the time - obviously he was able to slightly overwhelm Huang when he was in Guangxi, who knew that in Annan, there was no rebellion in Huang's territory, and someone dared to make trouble in his territory.

If this is not settled immediately, where will his face as the guardian of Jingxi go?

Even though Cen Ling looks a bit more handsome than Gao Yushi, but he is not a civil servant like Gao Yushi, and he will not always consider closing when he is good like Gao Yushi in a war, so as not to cause unnecessary losses and waste Strength, try to use political means such as "coercion and temptation" to solve problems.

Cen Ling's solution was extremely decisive, and could even be said to be extremely cold - none of the eight thousand rebels took a single prisoner, and all of them were beheaded.Among them, there were only more than 2000 people who were originally cut in the array, but there were more than 3000 who surrendered, and he ordered them to be cut on the spot without saying a word.

Originally, they ran away more than 3000 people, but who knew that Cen Ling was really ruthless this time, relying on the physical strength of the wolf soldiers to chase after him until the northernmost point of Xuanguang was close to the border area of ​​Yunnan. The rebels under him were killed cleanly, leaving no bones or dogs behind.

When the news came back to Shenglong, Gao Wushi was stunned for a while, and said to himself: This guy Cen Ling is so ruthless, why is he like that perverted murderer Liu Ting?This is also a few thousand labors. Why don't you grab it and mine it?There are mines in Xuanguang, what a waste!

However, Cen Ling's behavior scared the Mo family's little court to the ground. Originally, the Mo family's court was more afraid of Huang Zhiting - after all, they were severely beaten by Huang Zhiting in the battle of Lang Son - now it's good. It turned out that Cen Zhenshou, who didn't get the chance to beat him up, was even more fucking ruthless. If he didn't do anything, he would kill him if he did!

This kind of Hades father, who the hell can afford it!
As a result, the reputation of "King Cen Yan" spread like wildfire, and for a while, Cen Ling inexplicably had the effect of "stopping children's crying" in Annan, and even Gao Yushi was a little envious.

It's a pity that he can also envy him in his heart. This kind of "good reputation" can be enjoyed by any general under his command, but he himself can never have it.

To be Huang Fu or to be Ma Qi, this is a question that can make the right choice with your toes.

The general is cruel and ruthless, and there is a big boss at the top who can be counted on, but if he, the big boss, has a bad reputation of being cruel and ruthless, the people in Annan will have no hope, and if something happens, they will have to rebel.

So after Gao Wushi received the battle report, in front of a group of Mo's courtiers, he slapped the table to reprimand Cen Ling, and then ordered: "Strictly warn, punish this person, and order him to return to the teacher as soon as possible!"

Then he turned his back and ordered someone to quietly send a message to Cen Ling: Well done, you will be rewarded when you come back! ——
