Chapter Ninety-Eight: Bijie Lost

Yu Chongming and An Bangyan really rebelled again, and history really has his inertia.

Although at the beginning of the year, Zhu Youzhen had already told officials in Guizhou and Sichuan not to exploit the young people, but to treat them with sincerity and trust.

It seems that this group of pro-people officials should not have listened, An Bangyan and Hao Chongming still reversed, but it was only a few months later than the original history.

I just don't know if Zhu Xieyuan, Li Weixin, Qin Liangyu, and others, who were in charge of military affairs in Sichuan and Guizhou, listened to Zhu Youzhen's words and reorganized their arms for war in advance.

Early in the morning of the second day, before the Huangji Gate was opened, the six auxiliary ministers of the cabinet gathered in front of the door, pacing back and forth in a hurry, and it seemed that they had also received an urgent report from Guizhou.

Huang Liji looked at Sun Chengzong and Li Guopu who were spinning back and forth in front of him, and shook his head helplessly.

'If you care, it's chaotic, the Son of Heaven will be able to bring peace talks to the east, and there will be chaos on the border with few people, how big waves can it afford. ’

With a sneer in his heart, Huang Liji casually took out a three-inch metal round box, took out a piece of silk, brushed off the dust that didn't exist at all, and then gently pressed the mechanism with his thumb.

With a "click", the lid on the top of the round box opened.

Without waiting for Huang Liji to show off again, a hat wing flashed in front of Huang Liji.

"Motosuke, what time is it?"

Seeing that Huang Liji began to show off his imperial pocket watch again, Shi Fenglai on the side couldn't stand it anymore.

"Half an hour to go."

Before his display process was over, he was interrupted by Shi Fenglai, and Huang Li was a little dissatisfied.

This pocket watch is a tribute given to Zhu Youzhen by the Catholic Church, compared with the exquisite pocket watches of later generations, Zhu Youzhen dislikes a little big, and hangs on his body like a nouveau riche, Zhu Youzhen gave it to Huang Liji.

For the elders of the Ming Dynasty, there is naturally no shortage of gold and silver, but His Majesty's reward is never too much, the reward is not too much, but more on behalf of His Majesty's grace.

This is the only pocket watch of the Ming Dynasty, which can fall into the hands of Huang Liji, which is enough to represent that Huang Liji's position as the first assistant is as stable as Mount Tai.

This is undoubtedly the best suppression for Shi Fenglai and Han Guang, who have always been eager to try.

So since he got this pocket watch, Huang Liji has been wearing it on his body, and he also took it out from time to time to remind his colleagues who is the Yuan Fu of the Ming Dynasty.

The dark sky in the east was covered with a hint of fish belly white, and the heavy palace door slowly opened, Huang Liji looked at his pocket watch, five o'clock.

The six auxiliary ministers stood in their positions according to the shift, and waited for the attendant who had just opened the door to go in and report.

In feudal society, the basis of all rights comes from the Son of Heaven, the forbidden land of the palace, even the cabinet elders are not able to enter if they want to, and they can often be summoned by the Son of Heaven, which is the basis of the ministers.

For example, in the Jiajing and Wanli dynasties, the emperor did not go to court for decades, and the cabinet chief assistant who could enter the palace every day to see the Son of Heaven became a powerful minister under one person and above ten thousand people.

And because the other cabinet assistants were not summoned by the Son of Heaven, many of them were reduced to the secretaries of the first assistant, and their powers were not even as good as the six books.

And Shoufu, who is favored by the Son of Heaven, has the possibility of becoming a minister of power, and Xu Jie and Yan Song are among the best.

After Zhu Youzhen came to power, he naturally would not give Huang Liji this opportunity, whether it was the cabinet ministers or the six ministries and nine secretaries, they all left the opportunity to directly face the saint and play the right game alone, and the Jinyi Wei was even more widely spread all over the world, and Zhu Youzhen's ears and eyes were very smart.

Therefore, the cabinet has not yet received the urgent report from Guizhou, and Zhu Youzhen received it first.

Because he knew that the Lu'an Rebellion in history was finally put down, Zhu Youzhen did not panic after receiving the emergency report.

Compared with the rebellion of the young people, Zhu Youzhen was more worried about the Shaanxi people's rebellion and the northern captivity.

As usual, he got up at six o'clock, exercised a little, Zhu Youzhen had a healthy breakfast, and sat in the main hall of the Qianqing Palace to deal with official business.

Today's Imperial Council was nearly an hour earlier than usual.

Looking at the several cabinet elders with solemn faces in front of the hall, Zhu Youzhen knew that the cabinet should have been shocked by the urgent report from Guizhou.

The elders did not have Zhu Youzhen's golden finger, and the rebellion of luxury in the apocalypse lasted for five years, although it ended with the defeat of luxury Chongming's army and the escape to An Bangyan, but because the rebel leaders were not killed, luxury Chongming and An Bangyan, there was a second rebellion of luxury and peace.

After three years of recuperation, this time Yu Chongming and An Bangyan raised the banner of rebellion again, when they could put down the rebellion, the ministers were at a loss.

The mountainous and humid climate in Guizhou is the biggest enemy of officers and men, let alone fighting, and it is really not easy to march in the jungle.

If it takes five years to settle down like the previous time, the already tight finances of the Ming Dynasty will definitely be dragged down.

Everybody understands that, that's why they're worried.

"Your Majesty, Guizhou is in an emergency, Shuixi Tusi An Bangyan and Hao Chongming rebelled again, captured Bijie in three days, and are currently heading for Guiyang."

Huang Liji stepped forward to report the report of the Guizhou Governor Yamen, and peeked at Zhu Youzhen with his spare eyes, and saw the appearance of his old god, knowing that he already knew about it.

Different from the Shaanxi civil uprising at the beginning of the year, Zhu Youzhen was calm and relaxed in the Guizhou Rebellion, and Huang Liji became more and more incomprehensible about the temperament of this young man.

didn't get the expected reaction, and the previous draft couldn't be explained, knowing that Zhu Youzhen already had an idea, Huang Liji retreated with interest.

"The matter of Guizhou Bingge, I have been informed of Guizhou and Sichuan at the beginning of the year, and I don't know that the commanders of Guizhou and Shu have made preparations for the Yamen?"

Zhu Youzhen was naming him, and Sun Chengzong, who was in charge of the military department, naturally understood that he didn't need to be urged, so he went out to answer the call.

"Back to Your Majesty, the Holy Heavens listen to the training, the ministers will not obey their orders, since May, both Guizhou and Shu have commanded the envoy Yamen and the governor Yamen, repaired the armor, reorganized the army and battled, and the morale of the army has been strong."

"However, the rebellion of the thieves was sudden, and the momentum was huge, although Bi Jiewei was prepared, but he was outnumbered, and commanded Han Qianliu to fight and martyrdom, and more than 2,000 people in his department suffered heavy casualties."

Speaking of this, Sun Chengzong's face had a look of grief.

Zhu Youzhen already knew last night that Bijiewei, who should have more than 5,000 soldiers, could actually pick up a knife with less than 1,000 people, and it was not bad to be able to defend the 3,000 vanguard of Shangan Bangyan for three days.

The system of guards in the interior of the Ming Dynasty, more than 200 years of peace, has long been rotten, officials eat empty salaries at all levels, the shortage is serious, the soldiers are turned into private servants, lack of training, and the guards have long existed in name only.

In the end, Han Qianliu was able to gather more than 800 people to fight in the city for three days, and finally died in battle, which was already a leader among the commanders.

Zhu Youzhen didn't want to make a fuss about this matter, and the mention of Xiaoyu was also to knock Sun Chengzong.

"Han commanded the envoy to be loyal, not afraid of a strong enemy, with the strength of a guard to resist the rebels for three days, is really the pillar of the country, he died in battle, my heart is very painful, chase his bravery, promote him to command frugality, and one of his sons is a hundred households."

Zhu Youzhen also wanted the officials of Qianshu and Shu to use their lives, so they did not pursue the loss of the city, everyone died, and it was not Renjun's work to be held responsible, so he issued a decree to reward him according to the usual practice.

When Sun Chengzong heard this, he was also relieved, but the subsequent question made him raise his heart again.

"Bijie has been lost, the dragon field is probably no longer guaranteed, the rebels are pointing to Guiyang, does Sun Qing have a plan?"
