Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 193
Officials are treated as Jinwu, and wives are regarded as Yin Lihua.

Zhijinwu was originally the official name of the Qin Dynasty, and he was in charge of the capital. In the first year of Emperor Wu Taichu, he changed his name to Zhijinwu. He had great power. For the inside and outside.

Jinwu, also the name of the bird, is in charge of auspiciousness. When the emperor travels, he is in charge of leading the way to prevent abnormalities.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was a Jinwu Guard who was responsible for the security of the capital.

Jinwu Town of Lu Jian State is also well-known in Shaoxing. This is the first town of Jian Guo’s Northern Expedition imperial cavalry army, and it is also the only town of cavalry at present.

Jin Wuqi is the vanguard of Jianguo, the elite of the Northern Expedition.

The Jinwu cavalry appeared, and after the Huanglong played the Jinwu flag, the prison country must be there.

Zhu Shengli held the Jinwu banner and rushed to the crowd in an instant, and the soldiers and civilians retreated.

Song Zhipu led his ministers to greet him.

Zhu Shengli looked at these ministers wearing pythons, jumped off his horse and set up the banner on the ground, bowed his head slightly to them, and said, "The last general, Zhu Shengli, the chief soldier of Jinwu Town, the first town of the Imperial Army and the Majun, welcomes you! My lords."

"His Royal Highness Jian Guo will send a message to all the adults that the plan has changed and the itinerary has changed. He will return to Shaoxing in a few days."

"Please come back, my lords."

Song Zhipu and others were extremely surprised when they heard this.

"What about Your Highness?"

Zhu Shengli said, "His Royal Highness's whereabouts are top secret and must not be disclosed." After finishing speaking, he bowed his hands and said goodbye, quickly got on his horse, pulled up the Jinwu banner and gave an order.

A hundred Jinwu cavalry behind them all turned around.

Then followed Zhu Shengli and left again, and disappeared in a blink of an eye, leaving only the smoke and dust that had not dissipated.

It turned out that the momentum that covered the sky and the sea just now was actually just a hundred Jin Wuqi.

A group of red-robed ministers sitting on python jade belts didn't care about the smoke and dust on their faces at this time, they just looked at each other.

"Your Highness, this is another surprise attack." Song Zhipu said helplessly, "Everyone go back."

Liu Zongzhou blew his beard and stared angrily. This Lu Jianguo liked to act like this too much. Before he suddenly raised troops for the Northern Expedition, and now he suddenly changed his itinerary.

Fang Fengnian asked Wang Zhiren, "Did Governor Wang know something earlier? Your Highness won't take the imperial battalion to Hangzhou, right?"

Wang Zhiren was not in a hurry, Jian Guo was killed from Ningbo to Changzhou, almost to the city of Nanjing, without losing a single hair, so there was no need to worry about Jian Guo's safety.

"I don't know, but Jian Guo will definitely not go to fight Hangzhou."

I rushed to nothing, got up in the middle of the night and drove twenty miles, and came to this wilderness to wait for someone, but in the end I waited for a lonely time, and everyone was very helpless.

······
West of Hangzhou, Fuyang.

Located on the north bank of Fuchun River in the upper reaches of Qiantang River, it was also called Fuchun County in Qin and Han Dynasties.

Daming belongs to Hangzhou Prefecture.

Located at the intersection of Hangzhou, Shaoxing and Yanfu, the overall landform is two mountains sandwiching one river, the remnants of Tianmu Mountain stretching across the northwest, the remnants of Xianxialing winding in the southeast, and the Fuchun River flowing in from the west to the east.

Zhu Yihai stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the scenery on both sides of the Fuchun River.

The river is clear and there are endless bamboo forests on both sides.

"If your Highness comes in winter, you can also taste the famous Fuyang winter bamboo shoots here."

"In three months, we will be able to eat Fuyang winter bamboo shoots, don't worry." Zhu Yihai smiled.

There have been many famous people in Fuchun. For example, Sun Jian, who founded the foundation of Sun Wu of the Three Kingdoms, is a native of Fuchun in Wu County, the tiger of Jiangdong, and the little overlord of Jiangdong.

"Fang Guoan's hometown seems to be on the south bank of the Fuchun River?"

"Well, Fang Guoan is from Zhuji, Shaoxing."

Looking at the green mountains and green waters on both sides of the river, Zhu Yihai couldn't help but said, "Then he didn't have the slightest bit of conscience to harm this hometown?"

Chen Qianfu, who was in front of the driver, answered, "This kind of person doesn't have the slightest bit of courtesy, justice, and shame in his heart, even soldiers and bandits!"

The sentence "Soldier" fully explained Fang Guoan's character as a general, and also revealed his current predicament.

Fang Guoan, a general of the imperial court, in the last years of Chongzhen, had become the commander-in-chief and a general of Pingman, served as the commander-in-chief of Huguang, and restored Huguang.

After the death of Beidu, he quickly participated in the support of Hongguang, and later became an earl.After Hongguang was captured, he went to Hangzhou to support King Lu to supervise the country. When King Lu surrendered, he was still able to lead troops to attack the captives.

But he himself was a rogue and a cattle thief. After joining the army, he suppressed the peasant army for a long time, and the court was short of food and pay. Fang Guoan, like his old boss Zuo Liangyu, could only survive by plundering and looting. Soldiers are self-respecting, constantly recruiting troops, buying horses, annexing friendly troops and collecting prisoners, and then asking the imperial court for food and salaries.

By this time, soldiers and thieves have been completely indistinguishable.

Anyway, wherever Fang Guoan leads his troops, he will grab them.

Before retreating from Hangzhou, he ran all the way to Jinhua and grabbed Zhu Dadian's head. As a result, Zhu Dadian organized the brave people from the village to defend against the city. Fang Guoan insisted on fighting for a long time, but he couldn't beat him, and suffered heavy casualties.

Later, when Yanzhou Mansion was assigned to garrison him, there were also complaints.

When troops sent out to Fuyang, Lin'an and other places again, they used these places as an excuse to surrender captives and plundered unscrupulously. Even if Fuyang and Lin'an and other cities were later recovered by the Ming army, Fang Guoan had already controlled these places and continued to plunder.

Later, when the Qing army counterattacked, many gentry and civilians immediately led the way to attack the Fang army. After Fang Guoan's troops were defeated, Zhang Guowei and Yu Ying led the troops to recover and let Fang Guoan stay in Yanzhou mansion honestly. As a result, Fang Guoan still often sent his subordinates Come and loot.

Even not long ago, Fang Guoan was begging Zhu Yihai to assign all the prefectures of Jinqu Yanhang to him, and asked for local pay. Bring threats.They even sent troops directly to forcibly take over Fuyang Lin'an and other cities in the north of Fuchun River and west of Hangzhou.

Then he asked Ruan Dacheng and Fang Fengnian, who had a good relationship, to write a letter, requesting that Fang Guoan be granted the title of Duke of the State, the title of Governor and Minister of the Ministry of War to appease him, etc. They all sang and agreed, and the cooperation was very good.

After Zhu Yihai received this letter, he immediately decided to change his itinerary. Instead of going back to Shaoxing, he directly entered the Qiantang River from Hangzhou Bay, and then went up the river to Fuyang.

Fang Guoan challenged his bottom line again and again, and he couldn't bear it anymore.

A warlord, does he really think that there is no one in the court and that Zhu Yihai is incompetent?

Fang Guoan wanted to coerce Zhu Yihai with the tens of thousands of bandit soldiers under his command, that was impossible.Not to mention wanting a prince, even if he just wanted an admiral, Zhu Yihai couldn't give it to him.

If he is really dedicated to fighting against the Qing Dynasty, and he can follow the imperial edict and listen to the edict, it can naturally be discussed, not to mention the Duke, if he really has enough credit, Zhu Yihai doesn't even mind that he will be crowned a prince after his death in the future.

But that has to be given to you by Zhu Yihai, so you can have it.

If you don't give it to you, if you force it, you will be courting death.

In Fuyang city.

Fang Guoan was inspecting the boxes of silver that had been brought in. When Zhang Guowei and Zhu Dadian were around, he still had some scruples, but the two of them went to Huguang and Jiangxi, and even the nagging Zodiac Zhou in Quzhou. Huizhou.

Wang Zhiren also went to Jiangxi earlier, and Zheng Zunqian went to Huizhou.

Ever since, Fang Guoan did not wait for the decree of enfeoffing the state of Lu Jian, he sent his troops eastward and took Fuyang, Lin'an, Yuqian, and Changhua counties, but they did not take it from the Tartars, but from the Ming Dynasty. It was forcibly taken over by the army.

Before he occupied Fuyang and other places, they were seized by the Qing army in a surprise attack, and Yu Ying and others recovered them. He was unable to hold the city in the hands of the Qing army, but he had the face to rob his own city.

When Fang Guoan moved to Fuyang, he ransacked the homes of the four local families of Wu, Jin, Jiang, and Sun, saying that they had connections with the Tartars, and then implicated their relatives, ransacking their homes wantonly, and confiscated more than [-] taels of silver.

In addition, there are a large number of land deeds, house deeds, and many servants.

He killed all the local males of the Four Great Families, and then the females were sent to the camp to serve the army for pleasure, and he himself kept several young and beautiful ones.

"These bones of thieves still dare to sue for impeachment. I will let him sue again. Now that Huang Quan has become a ghost, my wife and daughter let me have fun, and all the money belongs to me. How dare he sue for impunity in the next life?" Fang Fang Guoan looked at the boxes of silver and was extremely proud.

"In troubled times, I have tens of thousands of brothers and tens of thousands of knives and guns. I am the king. If I dare to fight with me, so what if I sue him? I even dare to fight Zhu Dadian, the supervisor. Are you afraid of them?"

"Even if Lu Jianguo came here in person today, he wouldn't dare to do anything to me!"

He recklessly said these outrageous words, but the generals and staff in the courtyard didn't care at all, they just commented on the gold and silver treasures, proud and arrogant.

In troubled times, isn't it always the case, what kind of national system, imperial court law, it's all bullshit!

It's urgent, just make another emperor with the surname Zhu!
