In just two months, the situation has changed dramatically, and it is dizzying.

In mid-July, Zhang Lian raised troops and captured three prefectures and eight counties within half a month, conquering nearly a quarter of Fujian Province.

In early August, Yu Dayou, the commander-in-chief of Southern Jiangxi, and Qi Jimei, a guerrilla general, joined forces with Gutian County to defeat the 5,000-strong army led by Xiao Wansuo, and won a decisive victory in the whole province of Fujian.

When the military report entered Beijing, Emperor Jiajing was overjoyed, and Qi Jimei was promoted to a general, and the word "loyal and brave" was handwritten, and another 50 taels of silver were rewarded.

In mid-August, Yu Dayou, Qi Jimei, Wu Baipeng, Wang Daokun and other civil and military generals led their troops westward to encircle and suppress the thief army entrenched in Shaowu Mansion and Tingzhou Mansion.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Lian, who had been shrinking on the defensive, suddenly entered Jiangxi on September 10, although Wu Baipeng and Qi Jimei had many gains, and Yu Dayou led the army to chase into Jiangxi, but Zhang Lian and Xiao Wan marched very quickly, marched westward along Rushui, bypassed Nancheng County, where Jianchang Mansion was located, and entered Fushui to attack Fuzhou Mansion.

On September 15, the thief army stormed Linchuan County, the capital of Fuzhou, and the Jiangxi governor You Zhen and the Jiangxi general army led troops to help, but was ambushed by Xiao Wan, the thief soldiers were not afraid of death, hand-to-hand combat, the officers and soldiers were defeated, the Jiangxi general army took the lead in fleeing, and You Zhen disappeared.

On September 16, Zhang Lian led the thief army to re-attack Linchuan, and the city was broken on the same day, and the thieves plundered, which was miserable.

One bad news after another came to the capital, only Jianchang Mansion and Ganzhou Mansion had five counties broken, and Fuzhou Mansion was even more chaotic.

There are those who impeached Fujian Governor Wu Baipeng, and those who impeached General Qi Jimei, and even Yu Dayou did not escape this catastrophe...... led 3,000 soldiers and did not dare to attack rashly, and was impeached and plundered.

However, it is not necessarily a bad thing for Suiyuan, it has been nearly two months now, and those officials of the Taoist dialect have all shut their mouths, about Qian Yuan, about Zhenhai, about the ban on trade in the sea, this is considered "old news" in the capital.

And now Jiangxi is in chaos, well, the important ministers of the DPRK and the central government all know that Hu Zongxian's compilation of several southeastern provinces has exhausted the people's resources, Fujian is now in trouble, and Xuanda Jiliao in the north is even more miserable, Jiangxi ...... Nine times out of ten, we will rely on Ningbo to lose Jiangxi.

For Qian Yuan, the entry of the thief army into Jiangxi cannot be said to be without benefits, at least let everyone see clearly what kind of real benefits the opening of the sea and the ban on trade can bring to the country.

For example, Yan Song and Yan Donglou all supported Tang Shunzhi in public, not to mention the Shangshu Fang of the Household Department, who had already transferred Chen Younian, a scholar with the garden, to the Ministry of Household Affairs to prepare for the establishment of the Ningbo Qing Officials Division, which was dedicated to the management of tax and silver accounts and warehousing matters.

Emperor Jiajing, with a gloomy face, had not been in retreat for several days, and walked around the apse irritably...... If it weren't for the fact that Ningbo sent another batch of silver in July, it really wouldn't have been able to hold on!

The next batch of tax silver should be sent to Beijing in October...... I don't know if I can make it in advance, or lose it directly?

Emperor Jiajing shook his head slightly, Yan Shifan was originally from Jiangxi, and he was afraid that he would swallow half of it.

Now the first thing is to introduce the governor of Jiangxi...... You Zhen was so shocked that he couldn't find a trace, and even if he didn't die, he would go to prison to be punished.

Several candidates recommended by the Ministry of Officials were not suitable, Yan Song obviously did not want Xu Jie's hand to reach into Jiangxi, but Yan Song did not have too effective candidates.

Emperor Jiajing let out a long sigh, why did the southeast rebellion get so much attention from the imperial court, and did not hesitate to set up a governor of Zhejiang, promote several provinces, and train a new army?

On the one hand, it is because the Japanese are too fierce, on the other hand, because the wealth of the southeast is the pillar of the household, and on the other hand, there are many families in the southeast...... To put it simply, the southeast is full of the kind of people who produce several jinshi in one family!

At the beginning of that year, the post of governor of Zhejiang was set up as a full-time suppression of the Japanese, because the descendants of Xie Qian, who had served as the first assistant, were killed by the Japanese as the fuse.

And Jiangxi ...... It is no exaggeration to say that at this point in time, there are far more families in Jiangxi than in the southeast, because the area is narrow and more concentrated.

The DPRK and China have put tremendous pressure on this, and one-third of the Jiangxi people in the cabinet and the two capitals and six ministries are from Jiangxi.

Jianchang Mansion, Ganzhou Mansion, and Fuzhou Mansion are all in chaos, and the next one is likely to be Ji'an Mansion bordering Ganzhou Fu and Fuzhou Mansion.

At that time, the government and the opposition all said, "Hanlin Duoji water, and the courtiers are half Jiangxi." ”

Jishui is located in Ji'an Mansion, once the city is broken, tsk!

Seeing Huang Jin hurrying into the hall, Emperor Jiajing turned his head and asked, "Who is Tingtui?" ”

"The Ministry of Officials mentioned Zhang Wei, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, and Zhang Wei, the imperial history of the Zuodu, was a native of Nanchang, Jiangxi." Huang Jin smiled bitterly: "The Ministry of Later Industry has mentioned Wang Daokun, the envoy of Fujian, and Zhao Zhenji, the governor of Zhejiang, and the court push has not yet ended." ”

Emperor Jiajing sneered twice, he couldn't be clearer about what those courtiers were thinking, logically speaking, Nanchang Mansion is in the north of Fuzhou Mansion, and Zhang Wei leads the Nanjing Military Department, no matter from which angle he is the most suitable.

Zhou Yan, the imperial history of Zuodu, was the same year as Xu Jie, so he naturally had to refute it, and civil officials could not serve in their hometowns...... But in fact, this article can be accommodated, at least Hu Zongxian, who served as the governor of Zhejiang, is an example, the area of Huizhou Prefecture belongs to Nanzhili, and the prison review and troop deployment are all undertaken by Zhejiang Province.

Wang Daokun is also from Huizhou, and Hu Zongxian is a fellow villager, Yan Dang is relatively acceptable, and Zhao Zhenji ...... Yan Song and Yan Shifan lost their minds and went crazy, so Xu Jie stuffed this person to Jiangxi.

Emperor Jiajing paced back and forth, and suddenly turned his head and asked, "What about Wen Chang?" ”

"Uh......" Huang Jin paused, "Wen Chang and Yan Donglou had a few words of conversation over there in Zhilu......

Emperor Jiajing's inexplicable mood was slightly better, Xu Wei didn't coax anyone, up to Yan Song, the first assistant of the cabinet, Yan Shifan, who actually controlled the vote, and was close to Yuan Wei and Guo Pu, but Emperor Jiajing was the only one......

After a while, Xu Wei spread the map copied from the military headquarters at the feet of Emperor Jiajing, "Jiangxi has always had complex terrain, and there are many rivers crisscrossing it, and the thief army is infested everywhere, and it is difficult for officers and soldiers to calmly kill them.

Although Yu Dayou, Qi Jimei, and Wu Weixi led the army to defeat the thieves one after another, the troops were insufficient, and it was difficult to cut off the thieves' army from entering Jiangxi.

The most important thing now is not to let the thief army go north to break through Nanchang and run into Poyang Lake. ”

"The army of thieves will go north?" Huang Jin asked cautiously, beating a drum in his heart, two months ago, Xu Weiyan was afraid that the thief army and the would-be wouldn't collude, and as a result, the thief army marched eastward and almost messed up Fujian Province.

Emperor Jiajing looked at Xu Wei with a little jealousy...... This is a crow's mouth, if it weren't for the Gutian victory of Yu Dayou and Qi Jimei, it would be difficult to say that the whole of Fujian would be difficult to say.

"I'm afraid not." Xu Wei pointed to Ganzhou, and hesitated to include the nearby Linjiang Mansion and Ji'an Mansion, "Zhang Lian and Xiao Wan's thieves were born in northern Guangdong, but I am afraid that they will go south to Guangdong." ”

After a pause, Xu Wei added softly: "Wu Guifang, the governor of Liangguang, a newcomer in Nanchang, Jiangxi, a jinshi in the twenty-third year of Jiajing, a meritorious service in the thirty-third year of Jiajing in Yangzhou Mansion, a political envoy of the left cloth in Zhejiang, and the prime minister of the imperial history of the right deputy capital, took over as the governor of Liangguang at the beginning of the year. ”

Emperor Jiajing felt a little funny, and he really couldn't let go of Jiangxi...... Basically, they are all from Jiangxi, and there is no shortage of outstanding people who are both civil and military among the officials of Jiangxi, but they cannot be appointed as the governor of Jiangxi because of their origins.

After a moment of silence, Emperor Jiajing asked in a low voice, "When will Ningbo tax silver be escorted into Beijing?" ”

A big bend made Xu Wei not come back to his senses for a long time, and he was stunned before he said: "About mid-October, I always have to take inventory." ”

"I heard that Zhancai has received a lot of grain and rice at a low price?"

"They were all received from Nanyang and North Korea." Xu Weigan smiled and said, "It's not Zhancai...... It is Tang Shunzhi, the prefect of Ningbo. ”

Emperor Jiajing glanced obliquely at the past, and Xu Wei immediately lowered his head silently.

A long sigh came, and Emperor Jiajing sneered: "He Qian Zhancai will take precautions and take care of his affairs in Fujian!" ”

Xu Wei didn't dare to refute, so he could only scold Qian Yuan in his heart...... You stupid, everything is written in the letter and sent to Xiyuan!

Where is Qian Yuan stupid, using the tax money shared by the Ningbo government to buy grain for emergencies, and using this kind of thing to please Emperor Jiajing, this is called favor without expense!
