Chapter 258: Quelling the Chaos
Zhu Dadian inventoried the land, and of course Zhu Youzhen would not be idle.
Qinglong and several royal guards were all sent by him to inquire about information.
In addition, there is also a secret office of Jinyiwei in Fengyang, and it can be said that Zhu Youzhen's eyeliner is everywhere in Daming.
Zhu Youzhen was not surprised by the information obtained by Qinglong.
However, Zhu Dadian was different, hearing that protests had taken place in many prefectures and counties in Fengyang, and there were also smashing, looting, and burning.
Zhu Dadian's face was pale, his legs were weak and he collapsed to the ground, he was the governor of Fengyang.
Fengyang, who was under his governance, actually had a riot under the emperor's nose, which made Zhu Dadian not live.
"Your Majesty, the sinners ...... die"
Seeing Zhu Dadian kneeling down again, Zhu Youzhen frowned:
"Get up, don't kneel on the ground at every turn, they have become soft-footed crabs, I have been prepared for a long time, since they are looking for death, Hugh blames me for being ruthless, I have given them a chance, I want to kill my great Ming, I will destroy his nine clans!"
Zhu Youzhen broke out into a thunderous rage, which made Zhu Dadian even more frightened, and he got up from the ground in a panic.
"Holy Lord, Weichen will go and persuade them not to make trouble, otherwise they will ......"
Zhu Youzhen snorted coldly:
"No, you just stay in the barracks honestly, don't walk around at will to avoid being accidentally injured!"
"Obedience"
Zhu Youzhen explained Zhu Dadian and immediately shouted:
"Come on, quickly spread Li Dakai and Tang Qing to see me."
"Obedience"
Soon the sound of armor outside the tent was heard, and then Li Dakai and Tang Qing walked into the big tent.
"Li Dakai Tang Qing see Your Majesty, my emperor ......"
"No rudeness!"
Without waiting for Li Dakai and Tang Qing to say long live our emperor, Zhu Youzhen interrupted them.
The two hurriedly thanked the emperor and looked at the emperor in unison, they knew that something big had happened.
Sure enough, as soon as I looked up, I saw that the emperor was sinking like water, and there was murderous aura in his eyes.
"In order to resist my reform, these dog officials in Fengyang actually ganged up with the squire, landlords, and military households to make trouble, trying to force me to give up land reform.
I don't believe that after the reform notice is posted, the people will still make trouble, can they still offend them by giving them land?
It is clear that my reforms have touched the interests of some people, and now I have ordered the troops to enter the five prefectures and counties in five ways to quell the rebellion, and if they find anyone armed with weapons, no matter who they are, they will be punished on the spot. ”
"Obedience"
Li Dakai and Tang Qing immediately took the order and left.
After Li Dakai and Tang Qing left, Zhu Youzhen shouted again:
"Someone Coming"
"In"
Immediately, a royal guard stepped forward to salute!
"Immediately rush to Gao Jie's place, pass on my edict, and order Gao Jie's department to immediately quell the disturbance in the prefecture and county where the riot occurred, and kill those who resist with weapons on the spot."
"Obedience"
The royal guards immediately got up and went to Gao Jie's place to deliver the message.
Gao Jie's troops had already been divided into several prefectures and counties, and Zhu Youzhen believed that they would be able to quickly quell the riots.
He knew very well that these people were not ordinary military households and ordinary people at all, so Zhu Youzhen did not show mercy to his subordinates.
Don't look at Fengyang, there are eight guards, but almost all of them are empty shelves, and the military households have already escaped.
Even if there are still some military households who work for them, they are all the private soldiers of the generals, and this number is limited, and it does not pose a threat to the regular army.
Seeing that the emperor didn't investigate at all, and directly sent troops to annihilate the troublemakers, Zhu Dadian felt that something bad was going to happen, and the guard was definitely going to rebel, so he wanted to persuade him, but he didn't dare to speak.
Zhu Dadian felt like an ant on a hot pot at this time, and his heart was itching!
Zhu Youzhen knew Zhu Dadian's thoughts very well.
"Zhu Dadian!"
Suddenly hearing the emperor call him, Zhu Dadian hurriedly stepped forward to salute:
"The sinner is here!"
Zhu Youjian:
"As the governor of Fengyang, the governor of Caoyun, I want to know how many capable soldiers you have under your command?"
Zhu Dadian couldn't figure out why the emperor suddenly asked this, he felt his heartbeat speed again, and he didn't dare to hide it, so he hurriedly replied:
"Back to Your Majesty, there are almost two thousand people!"
Zhu Youzhen nodded:
"Okay, when Yuhuatian comes back, accompany me to Huanglingwei, I want to see Wang Chengming's performance."
"Your Majesty, it's so chaotic outside, you must not go out!"
Zhu Youzhen's words almost scared Zhu Dadian's soul away.
The Fengyang squire and military household are making trouble, and it is too dangerous for the emperor to go out now.
In case of any accident, even if he killed him Zhu Dadian a thousand times, he couldn't bear this responsibility, and hurriedly knelt on the ground again.
Zhu Youzhen snorted coldly:
"The land of small projectiles, how can I withstand me, I can come safely from thousands of miles away in Beijing, your two thousand army is not as good as a dozen of my guards!"
"Bang bang...... The emperor can't, the criminal minister begs you to sit firmly in the Chinese army, and the criminal minister will immediately take someone to arrest Wang Mingcheng......"
Zhu Youzhen's tone was very firm, so anxious that Zhu Dadian kowtowed his head again and again, begging him not to go out.
The angry Zhu Youzhen rolled his eyes:
"Get up and speak, I have made up my mind, don't say more, otherwise you will disobey the holy order!"
"Sinner...... Compliance"
Protests and riots broke out in so many states and counties, and none of the state and county officials came forward to maintain order.
They have been colluding behind their backs for a long time, and they are all secretly watching jokes.
Of course, not all states and counties are like that, and several responsible state and county officials are lying in bed at this time and unable to do anything, and they are all injured by the guards.
The gates of the counties and counties in the various trouble-making states were wide open, and there was no prevention of the intervention of the army.
It's not that they don't want to, but they didn't expect Li Dakai to dare to send troops to suppress it.
In the Ming Dynasty, which army commander dared to risk the world and openly send troops to suppress the squire, including many scholars.
There are people in the court who read these books, and as long as you write a letter, someone will immediately start to impeach you.
Waiting for your result, you will either lose your official position or go to prison, and your future will be completely doomed.
Fengyang County
"Da Da Da ......"
Suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves, and the soldiers guarding the city gate heard the sound and looked up, and a troop of cavalry galloped forward.
They didn't realize what this cavalry was doing, and when they saw that it was Li Dakai's army, they hurriedly shouted:
"Close the city gate quickly, don't let the Jiangnan soldiers enter the city to make chaos......"
"Mess with Nima, click ......"
Before the soldier could finish speaking, several Ming soldiers rushed over next to him, and his head flew into the air.
Then Li Dakai led a thousand men and horses into Fengyang County.
Of course, those Ming troops just now were soldiers under Li Dakai's command, and they had already entered the city last night and were ready to meet Li Dakai at any time.
"Ordered to eliminate the rioters and those who disobey the land reform, if you have nothing to do with it, please go home and close the door and do not go out, otherwise you will be killed by mistake at your own risk, all protesters immediately lay down their arms, and if they find anyone holding a weapon to resist, they will be killed immediately......
After Li Dakai led the army into the city, the soldiers immediately began to remind the lively people to go home.
There were very few people involved in this operation, and the land reform was beneficial to them, and it was too late for the people to be happy.
Under the loud shouting under Li Dakai, the people dispersed one after another, and hurried home to confine the door.
Some officials and gentry paid the common people to make trouble in the streets.
Which guards and landlords and gentry did not disdain Li Dakai's words at all, and of course they would not leave or lay down their arms.
A landlord said to the soldiers around him:
"Now the officers and soldiers never kill the people, you go up and attack them, and kill one and reward ten taels of silver."
Hearing that there was so much money to kill a soldier, several landlords' soldiers pounced on the soldiers who were walking towards them with knives.
