The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 596 The ends of the earth, chasing the murderer thousands of miles away!
In the 28th year of Hongwu, in the middle of October.

The matter here in Duobang City is finally completely over.

Among them, from the two provinces of Guangxi and Yunnan, a large amount of food and officials were mobilized to the northern part of Annan.

Annan's disintegration is a foregone conclusion, even the aristocrats of Annan chieftain who have a little vision can see it.

As for whether the future Annan will belong to the rule of the Annan royal family, or will be under the rule of Ming Dynasty, this is not known.

Because the food of the Ming army is relatively sufficient, the reputation of the Ming army is still relatively good. Apart from being relatively strong against the Annan chieftain rebel army, the rest of the Annan people are fairly stable.

And here in Duobang City, the Annan people who belonged to the north were basically released, which won the favor of many chieftains.

The national rebellion became stable.

Speaking of which, Annan has always been affiliated with Daming, and many chieftain nobles know this in their hearts.

As for the entry of Daming's army into Annan, this is not aggression, but an order to bring order out of chaos, and fundamentally speaking, it is an army of justice.

After all, there are still a small number of ethnic groups who are constantly in a state of resistance, which also makes Daming implement military control over the northern area that has been captured by Duobang City.

Zhu Ying's decree also arrived in the northern part of Duobang City again.

It is mainly for the wooing and canonization of chieftain nobles.

In the area under the original jurisdiction of the chieftain nobles, guards were re-established, and some stubborn nobles, or not so obedient, were directly punished.

Re-support some down-and-out nobles, and under the intervention of Daming, carry out a power replacement for the chieftain nobles.

The newly promoted nobles were naturally very supportive of Daming, and some bad areas were quickly stabilized, and began to deliver food, intelligence and other materials to Daming.

Including the chief of the guard here, the commander, the thousand households, and the hundred households, all acted from the upper class of the chieftain nobles.

These measures were implemented because it was impossible to mobilize a large number of Han Chinese from Daming to migrate in a short period of time.

Today, the productivity of the chieftains of various ethnic groups in Annan is no longer possible to break through the original productivity. It can only be a restorative strategy. Coupled with the relationship between the chieftain nobles, it is impossible to abandon the chieftain nobles to rule this land. impossible things.

If it is forced to do so, it will only be a long period of turmoil and restlessness.

In fact, whether it is the chieftain aristocrats, the Annan royal family or the Ming Dynasty, they essentially belong to a community of interests. As long as the common interests are guaranteed, they can reach a point of compromise with each other.

As for the suzerain country Daming, as long as the interests are not greatly affected, everyone can still accept it.

Among them, the Tusi nobles themselves had more internal conflicts among the old and new nobles when the Ming Dynasty intervened in their rights.

When a balance point is reached, it will not take too much effort for Da Ming to govern the Annan region that has been conquered.

Even if there are insufficient officials, it has no effect at all.

Of course, everything still depends on the situation behind the Ming army in Duobang City.

As predicted by many people, after the rectified Ming army left Duobang City, it was like a broken bamboo along the way.

Hu Jishu's army did not have the courage to confront it head-on.

Ye Sheng and the others also directly went south to attack Shenglong City, the capital of Annandong, which is now the royal family of Annan, and the city where Liu Sheng and others were imprisoned.

There are no surprises.

When the Ming army arrived, Hu Jishou had already fled from the capital with his cronies and army, and he didn't even have the courage to defend the city.

In fact, this is not Hu Jishang's fault, because the location of Shenglong City is quite special. If you defend the city, there is no direction to escape. In addition, you are in the city, and there are actually many cronies of the Annan royal family.

It is easy to form a situation of internal cooperation with the Ming army.

The best choice is to resolutely abandon Shenglong City.

After Hu Jishou left, the Annan royal family took over the capital again to welcome the arrival of the Ming army.

On this point of politics, Hu Jishou is still very thoughtful.

Daming dispatched so many troops, naturally he wanted to get rewards in Annan.

He gave up Shenglong City today, which will inevitably lead to a conflict between the Annan royal family and the Ming army.

The things that the Ming army did in the area north of Duobang City, including setting up guards and re-dividing the rule of the nobility, these Hu Jishou had already obtained information.

Even if it is lost, Hu Jishou still has some cronies there, especially when the old nobles are down, they will get closer to Hu Jishou, and it is not difficult to get news.

This also made Hu Jishu realize that Daming's move was to annex Annan.

Regarding the emergence of these situations, including Hu Jishou's own inference, he went to the Annan Palace the night before he left Shenglong City.

"Your Majesty, no matter what, the ministers are all Annan's people, but let the Ming army rule Annan, this Annan will never be His Majesty's Annan in the future."

"I can see clearly that His Royal Highness the grandson of Daming has great ideas about Annan, no, even including Zhancheng, and intends to include it under the direct rule of Daming."

"I was blindsided earlier. When the Daming Navy tried its best to station at the port of Champa, I should have thought about it."

"King Zhancheng has already ceded a city as the vassal of Zhu Yunqi, the grandson of the Ming Dynasty. With this excuse, the Ming Dynasty's garrison in Zhancheng Kingdom can be justified."

"Although the elite soldiers on Annan's side were defeated by the minister, what they got in return now is Daming's direct intervention, which gave them enough excuses."

"I have gone to Qinghua, and I don't know how long I will stay there. This meeting is probably the last time I will see His Majesty."

"Your Majesty should know that I just don't want Annan to belong to Annan. Annan has always been loyal to His Majesty."

After finishing speaking, Hu Jiyao knelt down on the ground, and bowed three times and kowtowed nine times to the Annan Taishang Huang Chen Yong.

After the ceremony, he turned and left without waiting for Chen Yong to reply.

Annan Taishang Huang Chen Yong looked at Hu Jishu's leaving back, with complicated emotions in his eyes.

Since his father reused Hu Jishu, the situation in Annan has been considered stable. Hu Jishu himself is a relatively talented person, there is no doubt about it.

For Champa, it has always maintained a relatively strong state.

It's just that today's situation is not his own choice for Annan Taishang Huang Chen Yong.

In other words, the only impetus was to send the eldest princess Chen Muyue to Daming.

The Ming army who took over the capital of Annan was even more powerful than Chen Yong imagined.

The first step in entering the city was to rule the entire city by military officers.

It was at this time that Liu Sheng, Li Xiucai, and Zhao Yuanhong were able to emerge from the dungeon that was darkened.

"This Hu Jiyao is so audacious that he dared to turn against me, Daming. If he is caught this time, he must be shredded into pieces."

Li Xiucai said harshly.

During this period of time in the dungeon, he can be considered to have suffered a lot. Among other things, for a few months, all excretion was done in the cell.

The stinky smell alone is really unbearable.

During the period, because of the cold in the stomach, what's more, it was impossible to even take a bath, so I could only endure it all the time.

It's simply degrading!

No matter in the Western Regions or in the capital, where has he experienced such suffering.

"Come on, it's not bad to be able to save a life."

Liu Sheng said indifferently.

I have never experienced anything in this life, and there are worse lives than this.

Hu Jiyao didn't kill them, it was already the best situation.

This was because they were afraid that the three of them would be killed, which would cause Da Ming to be furious, so that there would be no room for turning back.

Hu Jishang also understood that the chance of success in the rebellion was not high, but if he killed three people, he might not only die, but according to the laws of Ming Dynasty, the nine clans would be exterminated.

Some things cannot be done too much, otherwise there will be no way out for me.

The first thing Zhao Yuanhong did after he came out was to obtain the latest information immediately, mainly to solicit information from his previous subordinates.

Fortunately, after the accident, the previous dark lines were immediately concealed. Although some of them were cleaned, most of them survived.

It's not that hard to get back up again.

After experiencing this incident, Zhao Yuanhong obviously had more ideas.

The first thing before him was naturally to track down the whereabouts of Li Laosi.

For traitors, the most severe punishment must be carried out.

Zhao Yuanhong was different from others, he had never lived in the capital, and even though he knew that his master had become His Royal Highness, the grandson of the Ming Dynasty, he still acted in the same way as he did in the chamber of commerce.

The punishment for traitors is not only the destruction of the body, but also the endless torture of the soul into the endless hell.

Liu Sheng was busy convening the previous old ministry.

Most of the [-] elite soldiers became captives and were taken away by Hu Jishou, and some of them escaped. Naturally, they must be collected now.

Wei Xing, the commander, is still in the hands of Hu Jishou.

Li Xiucai was fine, and the current situation was not suitable for enlightenment, so he followed Zhao Yuanhong.

Speaking of which, everyone is a scholar of Ming Dynasty and a scholar.

It wasn't very familiar at first, but during the time in the dungeon, the relationship has naturally become much closer.

Anyway, they've been in jail together.

After some investigation, Li Laosi's whereabouts were also found out.

He took dozens of people and slipped away by boat.

I took the sea route and went to the west.

"Zhao Yuanhong, have you really thought about it?"

"This vast sea of ​​people has gone to the west again. I don't know how many years it has been since I went there."

"Besides, His Royal Highness didn't say anything. Is it worth it for a Li Laosi?"

Li Xiucai couldn't figure it out, why did Zhao Yuanhong insist on arresting Li Lao Si and come back to live a good life now, why would he do this?

Even if it is reported to His Royal Highness, there is nothing wrong with this matter.

Now Zhao Yuanhong is going to take 200 people to chase Li Laosi thousands of miles away, which Li Xiucai can't understand.

Zhao Yuanhong looked at the subordinates who were constantly carrying supplies onto the ship. He was silent for a while, and then said: "This is the rule of the chamber of commerce. Anyone who dares to betray the chamber of commerce must be brought back for trial."

"This time, Li Laosi not only simply betrayed, but also ruined the arrangement of the boss in Annan, and lost so many brothers. It cannot be said that he is allowed to go away."

"In my life, I wandered around in the first half of my life, and met the Lord Ming in the second half of my life. Now Annan doesn't need me very much. No matter how many years I spend, I will capture him back."

Having said that, Zhao Yuanhong turned around to look at Li Xiucai and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry too much, I have already written to His Highness, this time I am going to Xiyang, besides arresting Li Lao Si, I am also going to see us The development of the chamber of commerce outside.”

"His Royal Highness established the franchise model of the Chamber of Commerce a long time ago. Daming now has no Qunying Chamber of Commerce, but outside, I don't know where to join."

"When I come back, I can report to His Royal Highness the development of our Qunying Chamber of Commerce outside."

"I have the token of the former Qunying Chamber of Commerce in my hand, and I think the journey will be smooth. Liu Jianjun also supports this point."

"With so many firearms and supplies, as long as it doesn't provoke any big country, it is naturally safe."

"Besides, Liu Jianjun gave me a seal, forgiving that ordinary small countries would not dare to provoke me, Daming."

"Don't worry, it's just that I don't know how many years will be the goodbye."

Zhao Yuanhong smiled freely.

It's just that he hadn't smiled for a long time, and his smile was rather stiff, which made the corners of Li Xiucai's mouth twitch.

After the chat, the ships over there were also ready.

This sea ship is from the Ming Navy, it is a little smaller than the treasure ship, but it is the latest sea ship, and the materials are extremely strong.

The general wind and waves on the sea can be carried down.

After boarding the boat, Zhao Yuanhong didn't look back.

Li Xiucai just stared at the sea in a daze, and kept walking away from the blurred ships.

"He is different from us. He is the first person to follow the owner and the most loyal person to the chamber of commerce."

"Back in the Western Regions, Zhao Yuanhong proposed by himself that he was willing to lurk in Annan. I admire him very much for having such a choice."

"To be honest, people like Zhao Yuanhong are the most loyal supporters of the Dong family."

"Our Heroes Chamber of Commerce can develop to such a scale, they are the biggest contributors."

"I have truly fulfilled the promise I made when I joined the chamber of commerce, and I will fight for it for the rest of my life."

At some point, Liu Sheng appeared beside Li Xiucai, and said with a sigh.

This is a belief.

It is also this belief that has the mythical and legendary Qunying Chamber of Commerce.

Liu Sheng can understand, but Li Xiucai can't.

But looking at the vast sea, Li Xiucai seemed to understand something.

Some things, after all, have to be done by someone.

Some things also require the persistence and sacrifice of some people.

I just don't know if there will be a day when I will come back after this trip.
