The days when I ransacked the house in Jinyiwei

Ganzhou has fallen. Yasheng Wang Shouren appears!

Wang Shouren did not choose to die in the field like Jiangxi Governor Sun Sui. He left Ganzhou in a small boat.

He did this not out of cowardice. King Ning's rebellion must be put down as soon as possible so that the people of Jiangnan can suffer less.

The only person in the entire Jiangnan who has the ability to put down the rebellion as soon as possible is me, Wang Shouren!

So, I want to live!

He took a ship and headed east with ten followers. The boat sailed on the river all night.

Early the next morning, the attendant entered his cabin. I found papers all over the floor, and on each piece of paper were written the words "Serve the country to the death" written in four big characters on the back of the paper.

Wang Shouren gathered his followers in the cabin. He said: "The ship will dock at Linjiang Mansion soon. When it docks, you can each run for your lives."

An elder asked: "What about you, Mr. Futai?"

Wang Shouren said: "Don't worry about it."

Linjiang Mansion is the only way for King Ning's rebels to march towards Yingtian.

The elder's first reaction was: The master's family had just escaped from danger in Ganzhou, why did they go to Linjiang to seek death again?

The elder reminded him: "Futai, you don't have a single soldier in your hands."

Wang Shouren stared at the old man and said something that is astonishing and will be recorded in history: "I am enough."

The ship docked at Linjiang that day. Wang Shouren's followers fled in all directions and were involved in the fleeing crowd.

The entire Linjiang Mansion was full of people running away with their families. There was chaos inside and outside the city.

Wang Shouren changed into the uniform of a third-grade official and strode into Linjiang City.

He saw a government official among the crowd. The rebels are approaching, not to mention the common people, and the government officials who usually show off their power are also mixed into the fleeing team.

King Ning's rebel army was not the Jingnan Yan army back then. Most of the Yan troops in Jingnan were border troops. Although military discipline cannot be complimented, at least it will not engage in large-scale massacres like the executioner Genghis Khan.

Most of Prince Ning's rebels were gangsters, thieves, and bandits from Jiangxi. Every time this group of people conquered a city, they killed people they saw, robbed things they saw, and pounced on women they saw. Massacres have already occurred in more than a dozen prefectures and counties.

The rebels have a reputation for bloodshed and brutality. It is not surprising that the people and officials in the city fled in all directions.

Wang Shouren grabbed the yamen servant and asked, "Where is Dai Deru?"

Dai Deru is the prefect of Linjiang.

The yamen servant looked at Wang Shouren's official uniform and replied: "When I ran out, Dai Fuzun was in the back yamen packing up his belongings and getting ready to run away!"

Wang Shouren let go of the Yamen servant and went straight to Linjiang Yamen.

At the gate of Linjiang government office, more than a dozen members of Dai Deru's family were hurriedly loading things onto the carriage.

The servants and followers have almost run away. The usually pampered prefect could only take matters into his own hands.

A concubine shouted: "The three large nanmu boxes that my mother's family gave me as a dowry are still in the bedroom."

Dai Deru scolded: "My life is almost gone, what's the use of a few broken boxes!"

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded in Dade Ru's ears: "Dade Ru!"

Dai Deru turned around and saw Wang Shouren.

At this moment, when he saw Wang Shouren, it was like seeing Yun Ni in a year of drought.

The Second Sage and the Soldier Immortal Wang Shouren are famous throughout Jiangnan. Four years ago, the large-scale banditry in Jiangxi and Fujian was easily quelled by Wang Shengren in just a few months.

Now that the fall of Linjiang Mansion is imminent, Wang Bingxian is here, and Linjiang will be at peace! Wang Bingxian is here, and the blue sky is there!

Dai Deru walked quickly to Wang Shouren, bowed his head and said, "I am the magistrate of Linjiang, Dai Deru, and I have met Wang Futai."

Wang Shouren said: "The situation is critical, so there is no need to be polite."

Dai Deru stood up. Wang Shouren looked at the three carriages and the Dai family.

Wang Shouren said: "Find a reliable person to send your family away. You stay in Linjiang and help me put down the rebellion!"

Dai Deru is actually not a spineless person. It's just that my strength is limited, and fighting to the death with hundreds of thousands of rebels is like a moth flying into a flame, so I want to rub oil on my feet.

Now that Wang Bingxian is here, he is more courageous: "I am willing to follow Lord Futai to the death!"

Dai Deru ordered his eldest son to lead his mother and a group of girls into the car to escape.

After his family left, Dai Deru asked Wang Shouren: "I wonder how many people Wang Futai brought to the river to suppress the rebellion?"

Wang Shouren raised a finger.

Dai Deru asked: "Ten thousand people?"

Dai Deru thought to himself: Ten thousand versus one hundred thousand is still a slight disadvantage.

But the sage once said that soldiers are not numerous but refined. If these 10,000 people were an elite division, they would be more than enough to deal with a 100,000-strong rebel army. You know, the commander of these 10,000 elite soldiers is Wang Yangming! Wang Yangming!

Wang Shouren shook his head slightly.

Dai Deru's newly ignited hope was instantly extinguished. He stammered and asked: "One, a thousand people?"

Wang Shouren continued to shake his head.

Dai Deru's face was ashen and he regretted his promise to follow Wang Shouren: "There shouldn't be only a hundred people, right?"

Wang Shouren finally told the real number: "It's just me."

Dai Deru almost hit his head against the south wall. He smiled bitterly: "Wang Futai, can we put down the rebellion with just the two of us?"

Wang Shouren replied: "Yes."

Dai Deru asked: "Why are you so sure?"

Wang Shouren answered sonorously and forcefully. This sentence was later recorded in history books.

"When I am here, the rebellion will be put down."

For some reason, Dai Deru felt a confidence from these words that even thousands of troops could not bring about.

Dai Deru said sternly: "Please give me your orders, Mr. Futai."

Wang Shouren asked: "Is there any garrison near the river?"

Dai Deru replied: "There is a thousand-household office. But it is not controlled by local officials."

Wang Shouren pointed to his official uniform. There were bulging words in his official uniform: "I have the royal flag with me. I can mobilize all the guards in Jiangxi."

The royal flag is two different things. The same is a square flag, and the same is a round sign. Usually hung on two long guns.

This thing is equivalent to the combination of Shang Fang's sword and the Tiger Talisman in the play.

In the past, local governors could act expeditiously based on the royal orders given by the emperor, and could also mobilize local garrison troops.

Wang Shouren is lying.

In order to suppress the power of civil servants, Emperor Zhengde had long withdrawn the royal order flags awarded to governors in various places. What he was carrying in his arms was just a wooden teahouse cover he picked up on the street just now.

Dai Deru had no doubts at all: "As long as the king's flag is here, it will be easier to mobilize the troops! I will inform the Linjiang garrison immediately!"

The Linjiang garrison has a thousand-household office. According to the roster, there should be 1,120 people.

But eating empty pay is a traditional art of the Ming army. The actual number of people living in a thousand households near the river is only seven hundred.

Among these seven hundred people, another four hundred had their soles greased. The remaining three hundred people didn't have time to run.

These three hundred people chose to stay and follow Wang Shouren. Wang Shouren lived in Jiangxi and was a figure like Zhuge Kongming in dramas. Everyone believed that the battle could not be defeated by following him.

Three hundred people gathered in front of the government office.

Dai Deru asked Wang Shouren: "Is the official going to arrange for brothers to go to the city to guard?"

Wang Shouren's words surprised Dai Deru: "No, we retreat and leave Linjiang Mansion."

Dai Deru was stunned: "Wang Futai wants us to run away?"

Wang Shouren said: "It's not about running, but about moving. I really want to put down the rebellion. But the place to put down the rebellion is not in Linjiang, but in Ji'an." Ji'an, Jiangxi, is a place with simple folk customs. As an aside, Ji'an produced forty-six generals during the Fifth Five-Year Plan, making it a well-deserved revolutionary holy place.

In the twelfth year of Zhengde, Wang Shouren restored the Baowu system among the Hakka people in Jiangxi when he suppressed the rebellion. It is similar to how Zeng Guofan organized group training and armed forces in later generations.

Later, when Emperor Zhengde seized military power, he naturally would not allow the existence of militias trained by local governors.

Jiangxi's 30,000 "troops" were compressed and consolidated into 3,000 by the Guard Army, and were given the establishment of three thousand-household units, stationed in Ji'an. Half of these three thousand people are locals in Ji'an.

The purpose of Wang Shouren's disembarkation to Linjiang was not to fight the defense of Linjianggrad.

Wang Shouren wanted to go to Ji'an, but the situation was chaotic. There were countless bandits and bandits who would take advantage of the situation and rob him along the way. He went to Ji'an alone, and he might have been robbed before he even got there.

His purpose in coming to Jiangfu was to find a few hundred bodyguards to protect him when he went to Ji'an. Just sauce.

Dai Deru felt that he had been cheated by Wang Bingxian. But then I thought about it, maybe Wang Bingxian did have a plan to defeat the enemy?
Thinking of this, Dai Deru said: "We are all at the mercy of Lord Futai."

Wang Shouren waved his hand: "Let's go! Go to Ji'an!"

Let’s talk about the capital.

Chang Feng and Wang Miao have worked hard to run Nanzhen Fusi in the past few years, and it is not for nothing.

There is a lot of information about Prince Ning's rebels in Fusi's stall in Nanzhen.

In the leopard room.

Emperor Zhengde was listening to Chang Feng and Wang Miaoxin's report on the details of King Ning's rebellion.

Chang Feng said: "Your Majesty, Prince Ning's rebels are called 160,000. The actual number is around 100,000. Ten thousand of them are the guards of Prince Ning's palace. The remaining 90,000 are local ruffians, bandits and thieves in Jiangxi."

"There are three generals under King Ning. Ling Shiyi, Min Twenty-four, and Wu Shisan. These three are all bandit leaders. They don't know the art of war, and they have never fought a serious battle."

Changfeng reported the news, and Emperor Zhengde felt happy.

It was obvious that Prince Ning's men were a bunch of rabble. Then I will lead the heavenly troops to quell the rebellion of the vassal king, and I will leave my name in the history books. Isn’t it easy to capture me?

Emperor Zhengde had two purposes for this southern expedition. One is to poke holes in the nest of civil servants. The second is to establish the meritorious service of counterinsurgency, which will be remembered for generations.

Chang Feng added: "Originally, the strength of the Jiangxi Guards Forces alone could completely extinguish King Ning's rebellion. At least the rebellion could be suppressed within Jiangxi."

"It's a pity that the Nanchang garrison eunuch's office recently transferred several main guards from Jiangxi to Fujian Beiwa."

In fact, this matter was ordered by Emperor Zhengde. If King Ning's rebellion doesn't become more serious, how can he show that he is good at fighting?
Emperor Zhengde asked: "How is King Ning's food and salary?"

Chang Feng replied: "Although King Ning has used all dirty means to make money in recent years, the scope of his wealth has always been in a few prefectures near Nanchang. Nan Si has calculated that the food and salary in his hand can support the needs of 100,000 rebels for up to half a year."

Emperor Zhengde nodded frequently: "Yes. Nanzhen Fusi's information is indeed detailed!"

Suddenly he added: "Why didn't you report it to me before?"

If it weren't for the fear of being disloyal to the emperor, Chang Feng would have given Emperor Zhengde a big roll of his eyes on the spot.

I’ll report it to you, and you have to read it too!

Prince Ning put it bluntly, he is just a piece in your big chess game. There was a tacit understanding. Why should something go wrong? It's our Nanzhen Fusi's fault. Your Majesty, you are not particular!
Chang Feng said nothing, with a look of displeasure on his face.

Emperor Zhengde said quickly: "Ah, I don't mean to blame Nanzhen Fusi. Okay, okay, you all go down first and prepare to go out with me!"

There was something very strange about Emperor Zhengde's southern expedition.

The only civil servant Shangshu requested to accompany him on the southern expedition was Wang Qiong, the Minister of War.

Yang Tinghe and the cabinet members actually asked to stay in the capital.

Emperor Zhengde had some monks who were confused. Usually when I go out of Beijing, you all want to stick to me.

This time when I go to your hometown in the south of the Yangtze River, it is unusual for Yang Ting and the others not to ask for a ride.

However, all the troops and horses in the capital are in the hands of my imperial aunt. You guys, these helpless rotten people, can't change the world.

So Emperor Zhengde readily agreed. Yang Tinghe led his cabinet members to stay in Beijing to manage politics.

Let us say that Chang Feng left the Leopard Room and came to the Ministry of War. He wanted to report the rebel intelligence to Wang Qiong, Minister of War.

Wang Qiong is Wang Shouren's boss. He was the one who originally recommended Wang Shouren to serve as governor of Southern Gansu.

Chang Feng explained his purpose, but Wang Qiong was a bit disapproving: "Just report the military situation. It's useless."

Chang Feng was surprised: "As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. Military intelligence is the key to victory or defeat. Why does Wang Shangshu say it is useless?"

Wang Qiong took a sip of tea and said: "To tell you the truth, the emperor has assembled a force of 150,000 troops in the capital camp, and the imperial commander personally marched. It's a fool's errand."

Chang Feng was stunned.

Next, Wang Qiong said something that has been recorded in history: "I appointed Shouren as governor of southern Jiangxi just for today's matter. If Shouren is in Gan, the rebellion will be put down within a month, and King Ning will be captured without hesitation."

The old guy Wang Qiong is so confident.

Wang Qiong has a very bad reputation among civil servants. This person is very good at building relationships. I have a very good relationship with Jiang Bin and Qian Ning. There's nothing wrong with drinking a lot of wine.

But a poor reputation does not mean that he is a bad person, nor does it mean that he is a mediocre official.

In terms of leading troops to fight, he may not be as good as Wang Shu, Ma Wensheng, and Liu Daxia, the senior Xia officials.

When it comes to knowing and employing people, Wang Qiong is as good as any ancient wise minister.

Chang Feng was a little surprised: "Why did Wang Butang say this? I have known Shouren for more than thirty years. I know that he is an all-rounder who can bring peace to the world with his pen and his horse with military skills."

"But it is difficult for a wise woman to make a meal without rice. Wang Shouren has no soldiers, so what can he do to quell the rebellion?"

Wang Qiong disagreed: "How can there be no one available in Jiangxi? Wang Shouren will mobilize the troops to suppress the rebellion. You don't need to worry about him."

"I guess when the Southern Expeditionary Army arrives in Shandong, the good news of the successful counterinsurgency will arrive."

Lao Wang Qiong's words came true. Of course, those are all things for later.

It is said that Wang Shouren, under the protection of Dai Deru and hundreds of Linjiang Guard soldiers, traveled day and night to Ji'an Mansion, a place with simple folk customs.

The prefect of Ji'an is a ruthless man. His name is Wu Wending.

Wu Wending was a Jinshi in the twelfth year of Hongzhi, the same year as Wang Shouren. During the exam, his exam room was next to Tang Yin.

After being named on the gold list, this man was awarded the promotion official of Changzhou Prefecture.

The push official is in charge of the prisons of a government. After Wu Wending took office, he used ruthless means to severely punish the evil forces in Changzhou.

For example, he caught a local gangster who was bullying men and women. He was afraid that the prefect would take bribes and convict the ruffian leader with a misdemeanor. So they simply put the gangster leader in prison and gave him only dry food and no water for five days. The local ruffian leader died of thirst.

People in Changzhou say he is Qingtian. The bad guys all said he was a cruel official.

Later Liu Jin took power in Beijing. Wang Shouren and Chang Feng angrily cursed Liu Jin for being demoted to the Dragon Field.

Brother Wu who was far away in Changzhou was also unambiguous. He scolded Liu Jin in a memorial. Liu Jin sent people to take him to Beijing and imprisoned him in imperial prison.

This guy actually spent four years in a prison that was like a hell on earth. He endured until Liu Jin lost power.

After Liu Jin's death, he was exonerated and promoted to Tongzhi of Jiaxing Prefecture. As soon as they arrived in Jiaxing, they encountered Yao Yuan's bandit rebellion.

The prefect of Jiaxing was a coward and went to Hangzhou in the name of reporting a thief. The task of suppressing bandits fell to Wu Wending, a fellow magistrate.

His method of quelling bandit chaos is relatively simple-just kill.

Banditry is tantamount to rebellion. Is it reasonable for me to kill the family members of the rebels?

I'll give you three days to surrender. If you don't surrender, I will kill all your parents and wives.

Killed about a hundred bandits. All the bandits came down the mountain and surrendered.

In the tenth year of Zhengde's reign, he was transferred to Ji'an as the prefect. Two years later, Jiangxi was in chaos. The imperial court sent Wang Shouren to quell the chaos.

Wu Wending became Wang Shouren's number one general.

However, Wang Shouren suppressed and appeased at the same time. The ruthless Wu Wending never caressed her, only suppressed her to death.

In short, Wu Wending is a ruthless and ruthless person. Wang Shouren came to Ji'an for two reasons. First, Ji'an has three thousand troops. The second is that Wu Dahun is in Ji'an. (End of chapter)
