Chapter 580: Don't Stop Fighting
Nanking.
"Now you know mine, okay?"
Yang Xin said.
The Huizhou regiment training in Congshan Pass, under the leadership of Jin Sheng, finally chose to disarm and surrender......
They have no other choice.
When they surrendered, the fire of this prairie had already burned to Xiuning, if it were not for the arrival of reinforcements from Qimen and Yixian, which temporarily helped the gentry of Xiuning to resist the first wave, even Xiuning City would follow in the footsteps of Huizhou. But this is because of the long distance, and the tenants and slaves in Yixian and Qimen have not yet received news, so the gentry in the two places can still support, but once these two places get the news, then they will not be able to protect themselves.
Song Qi is from Yi County.
As long as the news spreads in these places, it must be another fire, and in fact, after helping the Xiuning gentry, the reinforcements from these two places hurriedly went back and blocked the checkpoint......
They had to delay as much as they could.
In this case, what else can Jin Sheng, who is a Xiuning person himself, do?
He still has soldiers and horses.
But as soon as he withdrew from Congshan Pass, the opposite Zhejiang Front army was killed, and the result was no different at that time.
Continue to hold on to Congshan Pass, the tenants and slaves behind destroyed everything they had, went back to extinguish the fire, and the Jingnan army on the other side entered Huizhou or destroyed everything for them, and took the initiative to surrender and be beaten by others......
That's not the same treatment.
In the end, under the urging of Wang Xian'an, Jin Sheng and his student Jiang Tianyi led the remnants of the Huizhou regiment to surrender to the Jingnan army, and Zheng Zunqian, who was holding the Congshan Pass with them, led the remnants of the 8,000 Zhejiang regiment to train and rushed to Hangzhou via the Huihang-Hangzhou Ancient Road. They walked very bleakly, because they knew that the next one would be Zhejiang, and they also knew that it was likely that they would not have to wait for the Jingnan army to kill them, and the tenants and slaves in Zhejiang would be like those in Huizhou.
They were doomed.
At this moment, Jin Sheng stood in front of Yang Xin and looked at this traitor with some gloom.
"How does the Duke of Yingguo want to deal with the lower officials."
He said.
"Let's go to prison and be with Zhang Mingzhen first!
A few of you will go, all the officers above the captain of the Huizhou regiment will go, as for what to do with you in the future, I haven't thought about it yet, so you'd better hurry up and ask God to worship the Buddha and bless Lu Xiangsheng to defeat me.
Then you'll go home.
As for your family, you will not be implicated, just hand over the land. ”
Yang Xin said.
Jin Sheng didn't speak again, and took his younger brother Jin Jing and student Jiang Tianyi to follow the escorted soldiers out, and they would be held in a special prison in the imperial city. These people are all court officials, although Yingguo Gong opened the palace to exercise judicial power, but for the disposal of court officials, he still has to symbolically report to His Majesty the Emperor, just like Liu Bei has to symbolically play the emperor in advance to do something. Their future will be the same as Zhang Mingzhen, they are all national heroes, let them open up the wilderness and create overseas colonies for the Ming Dynasty, which can be regarded as going down in history, Yang Dudu is still very kind......
"I'm actually a good person!"
Looking at these national heroes who were originally punished in Nanjing in the history of worshipping the filial piety mausoleum, Ying Guogong said to Wang Xian'an with a sincere face.
The latter smiled awkwardly.
Lao Wang is actually the same year as Gao Panlong, and he is also the core of the Donglin Party in Gao Panlong's era, and he has been to Nanjing Guanglu Temple, and he can be regarded as an old political enemy of Yingguogong.
"So let's just pay a fixed price, two million taels of silver, it won't make you very embarrassed, right?"
Yang Xin said.
This guy's jump in thought made Wang Xian'an stunned.
But then he understood.
"No, don't be embarrassed!"
He said with difficulty squeezing out a crying smile.
It's life money.
If Yang Xin didn't pay for it, it was a big deal to arrest all the heads of each family on the charge of treason, and even exile the men to the island to dig guano, and at that time, the family wealth would be wiped out.
You can get away with it by paying for it.
"Wang Gong really knows the general situation!"
Yang Xin sighed.
In this way, he completed the annexation of Huizhou.
At this time, the forward cavalry of the Zhejiang Front Army had entered Huizhou to restore order.
It will certainly take a little time, but fortunately, the true purpose of those tenants and slaves will also be realized with their takeover of Huizhou, so the chaos there will not last long.
The Huizhou gentry exchanged two million taels of silver for pardon.
It is called salary, Yang Dudu feels that this word is still very appropriate, as an army under the command of Yingguo Gong, with the side of the Qing monarch and the Yasukuni as the banner, it is definitely not possible to rob the gentry of silver, but it is another thing for the gentry to take the initiative to give silver to help for this great cause.
"Don't cry if you don't see the coffin!"
Mrs. Long looked at Wang Xian'an, who had left gloomily, and said disdainfully.
"Then let them all see the coffin, and let our people all over Zhejiang also do it in Zhejiang, don't they still want to resist? I'm going to let them come and beg us one by one. ”
Yang Xin said.
"Then you have to guard against Zheng Zhilong."
Mrs. Long said.
Zhejiang can indeed do it, the Yang family has already sent a large number of people to do this in Zhejiang, Mrs. Long has a special team of thousands of people, all of whom are absolutely loyal to the level of dead soldiers, and are familiar with the various operations of ignition, even including theory, which are personally taught by Yang Dudu with a set of secret books......
Few people know about that secret book so far, and even those rangers only record bits and pieces in the form of notes.
However, it is strictly forbidden to spread the word.
It is said that even Yang Dudu himself was too afraid of the power of this secret book.
However, at present, it is only suitable in the Jinqu area, because there are still heavy troops in the Xudu area in Hangzhou, and they can go south to suppress them at any time. Originally, their strategy was to defend Congshan Pass, and at the same time maintain an offensive posture in the direction of Huzhou on the eastern front, but Jinhua and Quzhou in the rear were to provide military supplies. These two places were the first to join the Datong Kingdom, and those gentry set up a large number of factories like carnivals, relying on a large amount of steel imported from Jiangxi and Fujian, and even had the ability to produce tens of thousands of turtledoves per month.
But there weren't many defenders there.
Just like Huizhou, the militia of the gentry in each county was responsible for maintaining order.
It's easy to make a fuss.
But Zheng Zhilong's Fujian regimental training is in Xianxia Pass, if Zhejiang is also full of fire, those gentry may lead Zheng Zhilong out of Xianxia Pass, and those Fujian mercenaries will join the suppression.
There are 10,000 troops in Xianxia Pass!
"Zheng Zhilong? He has the guts, and he won't ......."
Yang Xin then stopped.
Although Xiao Zheng's growth is amazing, if he really has the guts, he will not end up beheaded, if he dares to mix, then it will kill him, he has completed his historical mission, Zheng Chenggong has been born. Previously, Zheng Zhilong, as the son of Li Danyi, took care of the Li family's business in the Wa Kingdom, and by the way, he had his first son in Hirado, since he could already die, after all, Yang Xin and Li Guozhu were in the same group.
However, Zheng Zhilong will not interfere, and the Fujian gentry are not so stupid, as long as they control Xianxia Pass and don't let the fire burn to their homes, they will be satisfied.
And soon Zheng Zhilong will also be unlucky.
Because according to the time, the main force of the Nanyang Naval Division has begun to return.
This fleet began last autumn, escorting Li Zhizao to comfort the Western Ocean, and at the end of the year it had already arrived in Goa, and then waited in Goa for the wind to change and returned, and generally sailed for two months to Guangzhou. As for Li Zhizao's three ships, he had already begun his voyage to Europe two months earlier, along with twelve Portuguese merchant ships returning to Europe.
In less than half a year, this Western ambassador comforted Vietnam, Cambodia, Boni, Siam, Johor, Aceh and other six countries for the Ming Dynasty, which can be regarded as a great contribution. During this period, he also protested against the Portuguese's forcible occupation of the Lion Kingdom, and sent an envoy to the king of the Lion Kingdom, who had retreated inland.
As soon as this fleet returned, Zheng Zhilong couldn't jump.
In fact, he has converged a lot.
Because the main force of the Beiyang Naval Division had been stationed in Zhoushan at this time, the Ningbo gentry were arranging defenses in Dinghai in fear, and forts had been built on Zhaobao Mountain......
At this time, Dinghai is Zhenhai.
The sailors organized by the Fujian gentry were actually part of the armed merchant ships of the Li family controlled by Zheng Zhilong, plus Yan Siqi and others, which were still essentially a privateer fleet, and the purpose was mainly to engage in armed smuggling.
Without Yang Xin's control, these guys are happy again.
Yan Siqi sat in the Japanese state Zheng Zhilong sat in Fujian, on the one hand, a smuggling transporter for the Fujian gentry, by the way also sold goods to the Zhejiang and Jiangxi gentry, this year even did not pay the package tax, the customs tax was intercepted by them, to put it bluntly, they are bypassing the imperial court's customs system, and at the same time bypassing the increasingly strong trade control of the Nanyang Company, smuggling alone in the Wa Kingdom and the Ryukyus, and the Dutch, Portuguese and even the Spaniards to do business.
But to say that they have other ambitions......
That is, I still think about Taiwan.
But Taiwan is under the control of the Yang and Li families, and they have no ability to seize it at all.
Not to mention them, not long ago, the Spaniards tried to rob the Yang family's base in the chicken coop, but the landing failed.
Then they were attacked by a fleet of clippers transporting guano at sea, and finally the Spaniards abandoned three sunken armed merchant ships and retreated to Luzon in disgrace, and the Yang family took advantage of this incident to knock out the Portuguese merchants a reparation. Although this does not have anything to do with them, Portugal is Spanish on the map of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty doesn't care about their, since Philip is the king of Portugal, then the Spaniards have to pay for the wrong things.
The poor Portuguese merchants in Macao were so angry that they turned around and joined forces with the Nanyang Company to raise the price of luxury goods sold to Manila by 30%, and then the Spanish merchants in Manila were so angry that they ran to block the governor to ask for compensation.
Of course, His Excellency the Governor can't cure the Yang family and can't cure them?
Hang one and be honest with the rest.
