Volume 3 Chapter 102 After the Great Victory
In the battle of Tongzhou, the Ming army won a complete victory, nearly 30,000 pirates and pirates who landed near Haimen were defeated in one fell swoop, and the bandit leader Li Guangtou was also captured by the army led by Hu Zongxian, the governor of Zhejiang.
This battle can be said to be the biggest victory of the Ming Dynasty since the war with the Japanese invaders, in the past, not to mention 30,000 pirates and Japanese pirates, even if it was 3,000 pirates and the Japanese Ming army has never been defeated.
Yang Cong led his army to achieve such a great victory, and it was supposed that he should immediately go to the imperial court to repay the merits and rewards, but he did not do so, because he wanted to take this opportunity to bring down Yan Song and the maritime tycoons, in order to completely solve the problem of pirates and pirates.
Early the next morning, the search for the pirates and pirates continued, and the tens of thousands of Ming army guards were divided into hundreds of groups of 12 people according to the combination of the Mandarin Duck Formation, and the whole territory of Tongzhou can be described as shouting and killing, and it was very lively.
At this time, the camp of the Ming army dozens of miles northwest of Tongzhou City was unusually calm, except for the occasional groans of pirates and pirate captives, there was almost no other sound.
After the end of the war, not only were the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion tired, but Yang Cong was also tired, if it weren't for the urgency of time, he would still want to rest for a while.
At this time, the handsome tent was already full of military generals, and after listening carefully to the battle report, Yang Cong said aloud outside the tent: "Take the bandit leader Li Guangtou." ”
Now, the most important thing is to interrogate the bandit leader Li Guangtou and find out the evidence that Yan Song has fornicated with the Japanese bandits.
Soon, Li Guangtou, who was tied up with five flowers, was dragged in by two brocade guards, and knelt down in front of Yang Cong.
This guy deserves to be called a pirate leader, and at such an advanced point, his face is still full of fierceness, and there is no expression of fear at all.
Yang Cong stared at him for a while, and then asked coldly, "Li Guangtou, are you guilty." ”
What about knowing the crime, not knowing the crime, it's not a death, Li Guangtou said calmly: "Since Lao Tzu has fallen into your hands, there is no hope of living, if you want to kill or chop, listen to it." ”
This guy is not bothered, Yang Cong is too lazy to beat around the bush, he asked directly: "Do you want to come and be happy or do you want to go to the Imperial Prison for a while." ”
Isn't this nonsense, of course Lao Tzu wants to have a good time.
Li Guangtou said a little impatiently: "Lao Tzu has said, if you want to kill or chop, listen to the respect, what kind of edict is not edicted, who are you scaring about." ”
Dizzy, this guy is so bold, he is not even afraid of prison.
Of course, it is also possible that he is pretending.
Yang Cong thought for a moment and simply asked, "You should have been instructed by someone to come to Nanzhili, right?" Honestly give an account of the person who instructed you, and the official will give you a good time. ”
Li Guangtou didn't want to think about it, so he gritted his teeth and said: "How big should I be, just this matter, it doesn't hurt to tell you, Lao Tzu just listened to the evil words of the second master of the Ningbo Tu family and Tu Dahai before he came to this ghost place, what the hell, this grandson dared to lie to Lao Tzu, if Lao Tzu didn't die this time, he definitely wanted this grandson to survive and not to die." ”
, it's so refreshing!
When Yang Cong heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, he originally thought that he would have to move the board to make this guy confess, but he never thought that he had not used this trick yet, and this guy confessed.
He really didn't know who Tu Dahai was, but he knew that the leader of the Tu family's generation was called Tu Dashan, who was working as a foreigner in the Nanjing Criminal Department at this time.
It seems that this guy is not lying, and the inner part of the invasion of Tongzhou by the Japanese should be the Ningbo Butcher.
However, his purpose is not only to overthrow the Ningbo Butcher, a wealthy maritime businessman, but also to overthrow Yan Song.
Yang Cong thought for a while, and then induced: "Why do you want to listen to the Ningbo Tu family, didn't their backer Yan Song, a university scholar, tell you anything?" ”
Li Guangtou said impatiently: "What cabinet scholar Yan Song, I don't know Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu knows Tu Dahai, this guy has been cooperating with Lao Tzu for many years, how does Lao Tzu know that he will lie to me." Don't mess up with Lao Tzu, it's your business to fight as officials, and Lao Tzu is too lazy to fix those with you. ”
This guy doesn't get on the road much, what should I do?
Yang Cong really wanted to order someone to drag this guy out and beat the twenty boards again, and kill his sharpness, but he gave up after thinking about it.
This guy looks like a hob meat, and it is estimated that it is useless to hit the board, and even if he is forced to confess, it seems that it is not very useful, because Yan Song's cronies are not directly involved in it this time
At this time, he realized that he was thinking about things a little too simply, it didn't seem so easy to bring down Yan Song, with Yan Song's ability, it was estimated that as long as he was not caught red-handed, people would have a way to shirk it.
So, what's next?
Yang Cong thought about it carefully, simply waved his hand to let everyone quit the tent, and then covered his head and wrote a song.
This time, he didn't let Jin Yiwei send it to Lu Bing through secret channels, and then transfer it to Jiajing, because Lu Bing had already warned him, and Jiajing was very disgusted by this method.
Of course he knew that Zhao Wenhua, the right senator of the General Political Department, was Yan Song's cronies, and the fold he presented would definitely not escape Yan Song's eyes, he just wanted Yan Song to know the content of the fold, since it couldn't be rectified this time, it would be good for people to have a headache.
Li Guangtou gathered nearly 30,000 pirates and pirates to rob Nanzhili, this matter was indeed arranged by Yan Song, but this time Yan Song learned to be obedient, he did not send his cronies to contact Li Guangtou, but let the Ningbo Tu clan do it.
He also knew that Yang Cong was trying to use the matter of the widows to clean him up, so he naturally wouldn't leave any more tricks for Yang Cong.
In his opinion, Yang Cong will definitely plant a big fight this time, and when the time comes, he will find a way to give Jiajing a few words of slander, and Yang Cong will probably be over.
Unexpectedly, he miscalculated again this time, after Yang Cong's recital was transmitted to the General Administration, Zhao Wenhua naturally secretly took it and took a look, and this look directly stunned Zhao Wenhua.
Yang Cong actually defeated the pirates and pirates gathered by Li Guangtou in one fell swoop, and even Li Guangtou was caught by this guy!
Moreover, Li Guangtou is still explaining later, this time it was the maritime tycoon who asked him to go to Nanzhili to loot!
What's even more terrifying is that Yang Cong actually asked Jiajing for an order to arrest all the Yuyao Xie clan, Ningbo Tu clan, Zhangpu Lin clan, Longxi Chen clan and others, and severely torture them, so that these people can confess the whereabouts of pirates and pirates, in order to wipe out all pirates and pirates!
This guy wants to turn the sky upside down!
Jiajing Dynasty has been in the past few years, who dares to fight the idea of the four giants of the maritime industry, this guy is good, he actually wants to wipe out the giants of the maritime business!
Zhao Wenhua is Yuyao Xie's son-in-law, according to what Yang Cong said, wouldn't he have to be arrested together!
He was really frightened, the emperor wanted to listen to Yang Cong's "slander", what should he do if he really killed the maritime giants?
At this time, he really wanted to tear Yang Cong's performance to pieces, so as not to pass it on to Jiajing.
However, he didn't dare to do this, because there were strict records for the collection and sorting of the folds, if he dared to destroy the folds, he would soon be found out, and even if he destroyed the folds, it was useless, Yang Cong could still continue to play, he could only run to Yan Song and beg his godfather to help the maritime tycoons tide over this crisis.
