Chapter 441: Move to Qiongzhou
Under the operation, Zhao Yu took advantage of the contradictions of various factions to gain military power and a certain degree of autonomy, and also obtained the right to speak at the court meeting. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info this made him a little excited, but he didn't know whether to cry or laugh, but he was a good engineer but was forced to change careers to engage in politics, intrigue with people every day, seek money and kill people. What worries him even more is that the history he knows has become an old paper in Yashan with the fall of the Great Song Dynasty, and a new history can only be created by himself.
It's useless to think too much now, and you have to face reality. When the storm ended, the blockade was lifted, and the Bureau's point of contact immediately sent in the information of those days. Although the Guangxi Ali Hague temporarily gave up its plan to attack Qiongzhou after all the warships were destroyed, he mobilized troops to strengthen the blockade of the coast and strictly forbade ships from entering the sea, so as to prevent Qiongzhou from obtaining supplies from Guangxi. He also recruited coastal fishermen and ordinary people who were good at water to reorganize the navy, establish a boat yard in Lianzhou to build warships, and prepare to attack Qiongzhou again after the rainy season ended.
On the Guangdong side, Li Heng immediately mobilized the Tanma Red Army and the surrendered army of various state capitals to blockade all coastal ports, strictly prohibiting all ships from entering the port, and even keeping the merchant ships of various countries out of the port. In order to solve the problem of military salaries, in the name of colluding with the Song army in Guangzhou, he plundered the city of Guangzhou, requisitioned the merchant ships anchored in the harbor, and destroyed the eastern and western feudal houses, and ordered that all those who had dealings with Qiongzhou should be punished as collaborators. In just a few days, Li Heng's tyranny caused the people's hearts to fluctuate, and the turmoil continued, a large number of people fled overseas, and merchant ships fled one after another.
Liu Shen from Fujian finally relieved himself after a few months of recuperation, but he was relieved of his post and recuperated at home. After learning of Zhang Hongfan's defeat and death, the Xingtai privy counsellors also strengthened their war preparedness, strictly inspected the merchant ships of various countries, and requisitioned the private army of the Pujia family in Quanzhou to patrol the sea. His behavior aroused Pu's dissatisfaction, because Kublai Khan gave him the task of attracting investment and promoting the development of maritime trade, but the merchant ships of various countries were intercepted by warships eight times a day, and who dared to come ten times, and his own ships were requisitioned, and the trade could not be done, and the losses were great!
However, the loss of the Yuan Dynasty was a good thing for Qiongzhou, and those merchant ships were only waiting to see the situation in Qiongzhou at first, but later found that the trade conditions in Qiongzhou had been greatly improved, and there were preferential taxes and fees, so they set up a stall in Qiongzhou to do business. And to blockade the long coastline in the modern situation of satellites, planes and ships can not be done, not to mention at this time, after hearing the news, the smuggling ships from the mainland also flocked to Qiongzhou to trade, so they made a lot of money, and more valuable is to obtain unlimited business opportunities, next year's business is afraid that it will be better.
Xingchao's whereabouts in Yashan have been exposed, and Zhang Shijie chose to settle here only to use this place as a fortress, not to establish a base, now the enemy is blockaded along the border, it will be more and more difficult for them to obtain supplies and personnel replenishment, and the enemy will not let them stay here safely, they will definitely try to attack again, and the rainy season has come, storms will become more and more frequent, and early evacuation of Yashan has become the most urgent task at present. At present, the only eligible place is Qiongzhou, so there is no need to explain it anymore......
For the establishment of the Jingfu Room, Zhao Yu was not in a hurry to open the door, but Shilling Yousi recommended officials below the fifth grade as candidates for entry from the Academy and the Hanlin Academy. At the same time, he presided over the first court meeting, I don't know whether there was a successor, or whether he intended to test Zhao Hao's ability, but Empress Dowager Yang did not attend. There was only one topic on the agenda of this meeting - the relocation of the Xing Dynasty to Qiongzhou.
The people who moved to Qiongzhou had a hunch that what they were discussing now was not the question of whether to move, but the question of how to go. In this regard, Zhao Yu has made a final decision, and the Xingchao is divided into three groups: because the Xingchao has many wounds, the first batch of wounded and dependents led by Deng Guangjian was escorted by Liu Shiyong and the forbidden army in front of the palace, and set off in two days. The second group set out five days later, led by Wen Tianxiang, Liu Huang and Zhang Shijie, and led the ministers of Shangshu Province to escort the Empress Dowager and most of the volunteers who were willing to move with them to Qiongzhou. Zhao Yu and Lu Xiufu led the Privy Council to lead the Destroyer Army and some of the volunteers, escorted the baggage and prisoners of war, and were expected to set off in ten days.
Everyone had no objection to His Majesty's arrangement, and felt that it was very safe. Qiongzhou has a small number of people and a narrow area, and if nearly 200,000 people suddenly pour in, it will certainly be overwhelmed and will inevitably cause chaos. And letting the injured and their families go first, in addition to calming people's hearts, also means taking family members as hostages, forcing those who don't want to go to have to follow.
The second batch of evacuated Chinese troops accounted for almost half of the Xing Dynasty, headed by the Queen Mother to stabilize people's hearts, after all, the Xing Dynasty is still headed by it, and she can also ask her to call the shots if she has something to do in Qiongzhou first. The central agency just detained the Privy Council, of course everyone knew that it was the emperor's cautious eyes, the Empress Dowager ordered the little emperor to manage the army, and left the Privy Council to temporarily assist him in his work, and no one could say anything, and Zhang Shijie lost his cronies and was alone, and he couldn't start if he wanted to make small moves. In addition, the baggage and belongings are detained in the royal camp, even if they want to slip away on the road, they can only be pirates, and after arriving in Qiong, all the needs must be solved by the place, and if they want to make trouble, they have to ask their stomachs if they agree.
And after the emperor personally broke off, this is an attitude in itself, which is enough to make people respectful, this kind of risk-free show opportunity Zhao Yu will certainly not let go, not only can he raise his prestige among the army and the people, but also stabilize the morale of the army, and at the same time hold everyone's life tightly in his hands, if you want to run, you will come to beat me, but unfortunately you can't beat it, so you can only obediently obey.
After the ministers were the same, Zhao Yu ordered that all officials and soldiers of the dynasty must be relocated, and the people and volunteers of the court are willing to stay in the principle of voluntariness, and those who are willing to stay are welcome, and they will be properly resettled after arriving in Qiongzhou. Thinking that he is the emperor, of course, he doesn't have to worry about it from time to time as before, now he just needs to come up with a big idea, and the specific work will be done by those ministers, and he only needs to supervise and inspect. Subsequently, he appointed a leading group headed by Lu Xiufu and the heads of each batch as deputies, and he did not interfere much in the specific way of doing it, but only wanted a perfect result to draw an end to his wandering career......
