In order to further make up for the flaws, or to more effectively gag the doubts when something really happens in the future, Feng Yi stayed in Jinling to deal with the affairs assigned by Han Qian, and deliberately entrusted the relationship to take the fleet of the Wuya Army and the Naval Division to Yueyang to change the defense, and then change the ship back to Xuzhou after considering Yueyang.

At the end of April, Jinling was already quite hot. On the embankment to the west of the naval division's camp, two young men in brown clothes stood with their hands in their hands, looking at the fleets that were gradually moving away, their eyes full of confusion.

After An Jixiang replied to Yang Yuanpu, he officially went to Jinyun Division to serve as the commander of the right capital in the past two days.

Although according to Yang Yuanpu's plan, he and Chen Ruyi, the commander of Zuo Du, should each be responsible for a share of affairs, and it is best to form a system of mutual supervision and checks and balances in a year or two.

Or they are two brothers, and in the end, only one of them will be trusted and reused to stay in Jinyun Division.

The two are actually in competition, but as far as the current situation is concerned, An Jixiang and Chen Ruyi both know that if the two of them do not work together at this time, they will be in a hurry to pull each other's backs, and the result is that no one is qualified to take charge of Jinyun Division and become the big boss of His Majesty's minions.

"How could they take the naval master's warship to Yueyang first?" Chen Ruyi looked at An Jixiang suspiciously.

"Maybe Han Qian warned them and asked them to show His Majesty that there are no forces directly under Xuzhou lurking in Jinling......," An Jixiang guessed.

Of course, there must be something unfavorable to Xuzhou, and it can be said that Feng Yi and Han Dong deliberately took the opportunity to get close to the generals of the water division.

However, at this time, the remnants of the Lou Boat Army, which still had considerable combat power, fled into Hongze Lake and were not completely annihilated, whether it was guarding Jinling or clearing Shouzhou, the imperial court was extremely dependent on the Wuya Army Sailors, An Jixiang guessed that His Majesty probably would never want to see them involve the Wuya Army Sailors at will now.

"Then the people they came over this time have all returned to Xuzhou?" Chen Ruyi asked.

"The list is all back." An Jixiang said.

He went to Jinling on the same ship with Feng Yi and Han Dong, but after returning to Jinling, his mission came to an end, and there was no reason to contact Feng Yi and Han Dong and their party again, so he could only get Feng Yi's list of them going out of the city from Honglu Temple, which was responsible for receiving Feng Yi, Han Dong and others as envoys.

And Jinyun Si has been in charge of keeping an eye on the secret spies in the post house from afar in the past few days, and he has not found anything abnormal, it seems that Feng Yi and Han Dong have already been instructed by Han Qian, and they will be responsible for eating, drinking and having fun after arriving in Jinling, and they have very little contact with the old ones, and they are very safe and guarded.

"Let's go back to the city." Chen Ru's opinion did not gain anything, so he walked down the river embankment with An Jixiang, met with the dozen or so horsemen guarding the river embankment, turned over his horse, and galloped towards Jinling City together.

They also did not notice that in the grass in the distance, there was a pair of shining pupils staring at their departing figure, and after a moment they retracted their minds and looked at the fleet of ships sailing four or five miles up the river.

After a long while, Han Donghu got up and walked to Chidao, he had already changed into a tattered shirt stolen from a farmer, as if he was an honest villager walking in the direction of Jinling City......

A few days after the ceremony of canonizing the queen, Shangfu was also in a state of busyness.

Shang Wensheng, the head of the Shangfu family, went to Guangde Mansion to serve as the prefect, and the eldest son Shang Mengtong was released to Danyang, Runzhou, as the county commander, and they all set off after the canonization of the queen's ceremony.

Although the second son Shang Zhongjie was finally acquitted, as the "culprit" who gathered the soldiers to defend Donglu Mountain and killed and injured thousands of generals of the Chishan Army, it was impossible for him to have meritorious deeds after the war, and he was still white at this time.

Shang Wensheng thought about keeping his second son by his side as a staff member and taking him to Langxi to take up his post.

Shang Zhongjie also felt that there was nothing wrong with this, but he felt that it was enough to leave a few old slaves in the house in Jinling City to take care of it, and the other slaves and maids still had to be taken to Donglushan to reorganize Shangjiabao, he discussed with his mother Liu, and also decided to live in Donglushan for a while first, so he was not in a hurry to leave with his father.

After dragging on for five or six days, in addition to packing up all the soft things in Shangfu, and also disposing of the two warehouses in the city, and raising tens of thousands of dollars as funds for the reorganization of Shangjiabao, Shang Zhongjie and his mother Liu took more than 100 slaves and maids, surrounded by more than 10 carriages, and left Jinling City to return to Donglushan first.

Shang Zhongjie rushed to Lishui City and stopped for a day, visited Wei Zhen, the county commander of Lishui County, who temporarily supervised Lishui County, and completed the title deed and house deed of Shang's in Donglu Mountain.

At this time, Shang Zhongjie still hated in his heart, thinking that when the Shang family was at its strongest, there were thousands of slaves and maids, and there were more than 400 family soldiers, why did he fall like today, and even his house was stolen and occupied by bandits?

Looking at the four wild artemisia grass vines in Lishui County, it is also full of desolation.

Although it took more than two months to recover Jinling, and even before the general attack on Jinling, the counties of Lishui and Nanling, which were originally under the control of Yueyang's soldiers and horses, had already started the work of returning villagers to their hometowns and resuming farming, but the results were very unsatisfactory.

As the area most "brutalized" by the Chishan Army, excluding the civilians who were forcibly conscripted into the army by the Wei clan and other clan lords, more than eighty percent of the slaves and maids in Lishui County were involved in the Chishan Army before and after.

Coupled with the people who died in the war and the people who did not return from exile, the actual number of Dingkou in Danyang County dropped to less than 40% of the pre-war level.

There is a serious shortage of labor, especially young and able-bodied.

The children of the clan lords of the family were not engaged in farming, and a large number of cultivation equipment was melted into swords and armor during the war.

In the spring, only about 20% of the fields in the county have been recultivated, and more fields are still barren and overgrown with weeds.

Wei Zhen did not join the Sixth Ministry as an official for the time being, and many generals who had meritorious services after serving His Majesty, such as Fu Gengwen and others, first went to Lishui, Jiangcheng, Fanchang, Dangtu and other county chiefs to recuperate.

Wei Zhen presided over the affairs of Lishui County, even if a large area of land was barren, he still insisted that the fields and houses should be returned to the old owners.

Even if he did not have the right to restrain the slaves and maids who surrendered to the Chishan Army and settled in Guangde Mansion, he still sent out the limited number of officials and sword archers of the county government as much as possible to help the lord's family hunt down the slaves and maids who fled to the depths of Yishan or Jiuhua Mountain.

He also detained the displaced people stranded in Lishui County to the county prison after identifying their identities, and then notified the old owner to come and pick them up through the post message.

He did everything possible to restore the old order in which the family lords controlled the countryside.

Of course, Zheng Yu, who presided over the Ministry of Officials, had such considerations when recommending Wei Zhen, Fu Gengwen and others to temporarily take over the counties of Jingzhaofu.

This has also been recognized by Yang Zhitang, Zhang Chao and many others.

Emperor Yanyou Yang Yuanpu did not strongly object, after all, only the fields of Anning Palace, Prince Yang Yuanwu and Xu's descendants in the counties of Jingzhaofu were as high as nearly two million mu, in addition to being used to reward meritorious deeds, they could also sell part of the land to raise money and grain to make up for the lack of funds for the reconstruction of Jinling City.

At this time, the Privy Council also took over the cantonment military mansion that originally belonged to the Nanya Forbidden Army and the Guards Army, which was also enough to accommodate the families of the newly formed Forbidden Army and the Guards Army, and even left a certain amount of room for the expansion of the military households in the future.

In any case, efforts were made to minimize the adverse effects of the Chishan Army and Gwangdeok Province.

Shang Zhongjie first took a group of healthy servants and family soldiers back to Donglu Mountain, Shangjiabao located at the northern foot was in a mess, only the inner fort was barely intact, but more than a dozen homeless people lived here, and the garden in the back mountain was actually reclaimed into a field to plant wheat and vegetables, almost more than 100 acres.

Shang Zhongjie first led seven or eight healthy servants to block the stone path outside the gate of the North Fort with their blades, and then personally took more than a dozen soldiers to climb the back mountain and rushed into the inner fort from the south.

More than a dozen homeless households, the vast majority of whom were either destitute tenant farmers who had no arable land nearby, or slaves and maids who had fled into the mountains to escape the war in fear at that time.

They saw Shang Zhongjie gather his soldiers to kill him with swords, and they didn't resist, so they were arrested, and they were full of thoughts that after being expelled, they would become homeless again, and their hearts were also sad, but they didn't expect a more bleak fate waiting for them.

…………

…………

Shang Zhongjie pulled the bloody sword out of the chest of a little girl covered in mud, and the sky had already brightened, and his brain, which was controlled by anger, had only slightly sobered up.

At this time, on the stone-paved square on the south side of the north fort gate of Shangjiabao, more than 50 corpses had fallen in a pool of blood.

All had their hands tied behind their backs, and their mouths were stuffed with rags or grass to prevent them from screaming as they struggled.

Shang Zhongjie felt regret and fear at this moment, but he didn't expect that he tortured three homeless people to death last night, and he couldn't vent the resentment in his heart, and he got up again in the early morning to torture these homeless people.

However, taking rags in their mouths, stuffing them with balls of grass, and whipping them with iron could no longer relieve the hatred in his heart, and as soon as his brain was hot, he drew his sword and stabbed the outcasts to death one by one.

Although these homeless people stole his family's farmland, he could gather his soldiers and drive them out by force, and even if there were some casualties in the process, they could still hold their feet in the process of expulsion, and they did not have to worry about being held accountable.

However, these people did not resist, so they were arrested, and according to the rules, he either drove these people out directly, or sent them to the county government for disposal, and he could not be executed without authorization.

Even in the army, killing prisoners will be severely charged, not to mention that he is just a criminal son of the Shang family, not to mention that what he killed is only a group of unarmed homeless women and children?

What will be done with these fifty or sixty corpses?

Shang Zhongjie regained his composure at this time, and looked gloomily at the dozen or so soldiers behind him who were frightened by the atrocity he had just done, although the corpses could be buried in the back mountain.

In this year, there are several mass graves outside Lishui City, and there are dozens of corpses, and no one will notice the abnormality after a while, but can he ensure that these soldiers will not leak the news and go out?

At the beginning, it was those cheap breeds who betrayed the Shang family, and they killed the Shang family fort the most ferocious and ruthless.

"Click......" The sound of galloping horses' hooves came from the bottom of the hill and trampled the stone road, and after a while, I saw the half-hidden fort door being pushed open from the outside.

Shang Wensheng, who had a thin face and a three-inch long beard on his chin, almost fainted when he saw the bloody scene in front of him, grabbed the horse whip in his hand and whipped it towards his second son Shang Zhongjie: "You son of a, you're really crazy!" ”

Last night, Shang Zhongjie tortured three homeless people to death, and some of his subordinates felt that something was wrong with him, and they couldn't bear to see the homeless people die so miserably, but they couldn't persuade the second son, whose temperament became extremely tyrannical after the war, so he could only lead the horse out of the fort overnight and gallop to Langxi to tell the head of the family, Shang Wensheng.

Shang Wensheng did not delay, and took five or six personal guards to return to Shangjiabao for nearly ninety miles in the morning light, but he didn't expect to be a step too late, and all he saw was a corpse lying in a pool of blood......
