Because he knew in his heart that it was Zhu Xieyuan who finally pacified the Extravagant Rebellion in history, so now the Chongzhen Emperor has not worried much about the war in the southwest since he reactivated Zhu Xieyuan to go to the southwest to preside over the overall situation of quelling the Extravagant Rebellion.

Zhu Xieyuan is also a person with complete trust and repeated decentralization.

After all, the distance from Guiyang to Beijing is more than 4,000 miles, and there is still a considerable distance in it, all of which are rugged and difficult mountain roads.

Therefore, as early as when Zhu Xieyuan was reinstated as the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou and the governor of Guizhou, Emperor Chongzhen issued a decree that he would command the guards, battalions and wolf soldiers of Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, Gui and Huguang and other places, and sit in Guiyang, and be responsible for suppressing the rebellion of Sichuan Yongning Tusi to pacify Hao Chongming and Guizhou Shuixi Tusi to comfort the An rebellion, and be fully responsible for handling all military affairs on the Yunnan-Guichuan front.

In the next half a year, as long as Zhu Xieyuan sent a military report and a request from Guiyang, Emperor Chongzhen will implement it as allowed, and specially issue a decree to allow him to behead those who are dissatisfied with the dispatch of Yun, Gui, Sichuan, Gui, and Huguang civil and military generals Tusi leaders, and act cheaply.

After that, Zhu Xieyuan's actions were really vigorous and resolute.

On the night of December 28 in the first year of Chongzhen, Zhu Xieyuan ordered Xu Chengming, the chief military officer of Guizhou, to lead an army of 9,000 on the grounds that Song Siyin, the Tusi of the Shuidong Xuanwei Division, had succeeded to the post of Xuanwei envoy of the Shuidong Xuanwei Division in Guizhou without the approval of the imperial court, and raided the Wudanghong border village located 20 miles northeast of Guiyang City.

In the Hongbian Village, the old nest of the Song clan in Shuidong, he captured and beheaded the Siyin of the Song Dynasty in Shuidong, and killed all the men and twelve horsehead leaders of the Song clan in Shuidong who gathered in Hongbian Village for the New Year, and in this way, the hereditary Tusi family of the Song family of Shuidong Xuanzhi in Guizhou was uprooted in one fell swoop.

Afterwards, he also opened up the Hongbian Twelve Horse Head area under the jurisdiction of the Shuidong Song Tusi as Kaizhou (now Kaiyang, Guizhou), and sent Zheng Chaodong, a member of Guizhou Politics, to take Liu Yangkun to sit in Kaizhou, confiscate the gold, silver and grain of the Hongbian Song Clan and the twelve horse heads and Tusi under its jurisdiction into the official for military use, and distribute a large area of mountain forest land cattle, sheep and livestock to the servants and slaves of the original local division.

At the same time, the other 12 governors south of Guiyang, which originally belonged to the Shuidong Xuanwei Division, were directly included in the Guiyang Prefecture, so that the non-Song hereditary local officials of the 12 ministers' lawsuits, such as Guizhu, Longli, Cheng Fan, and Wei Fan, sent troops to help in the war.

This alone turned the counterinsurgency situation on the Guiyang front in one fell swoop.

After this incident, the Guizhou Governor Wang Yingxiong immediately wrote to impeach Zhu Xieyuan, saying that he acted arbitrarily, and now the rebellion of Lu'an has not been settled and provoked for no reason.

At the end of February of the second year of Chongzhen, Wang Yingxiong's bullet was sent to the Great Interior, and Emperor Chongzhen soon issued an edict to praise Zhu Xieyuan and Xu Chengming, and recorded Xu Chengming's son Xu Quanzhong as the Fusi Hundred Households of Jinyi Weibei Town.

At the same time, Wang Yingxiong was dismissed, ordered to return to his hometown to study, and ordered Wang Yinghua, a scholar in the cabinet of Enke Jinshi in the first year of Chongzhen, to go to Guizhou with the emperor's secret decree to take over Wang Yingxiong's post of Guizhou Inspector Imperial History.

Moreover, he also sent Liu Zhaoji, the deputy commander of Tiance Guard, to lead the well-equipped Tian Ce Wei Youye elite 1,000 people to escort Wang Yinghua to take office and stay in front of the army.

Wang Yingxiong, a Jinshi in the 41st year of Wanli, was born in Hanlin, and was once an official in history as a scholar of the Ministry of Rites of the Chongzhen Dynasty and a scholar of the East Pavilion, and an official in the Southern Ming Dynasty as a scholar of the Ministry of Military Affairs and a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion.

Before Zhou Yanru came to power, he and Zhou Yanru formed a party and wanted to enter the cabinet, after Zhou Yanru came to power as the first assistant, he didn't care about him, Wang Yingxiong was angry and formed a party with Wen Tiren, and repeatedly fought infighting, and Zhou Yanru was brought down, and then Wen Tiren became the first assistant, and Wang Yingxiong also successfully entered the cabinet.

But after entering the cabinet, Wang Yingxiong suspected Wen Tiren of being autocratic, and soon gathered a group of Donglin party members and began to engage in Wen Tiren, saying that Wen Tiren was the remnant of the eunuch party, and then in various kinds of confrontation and non-cooperation in the government and politics, until the eighth year of Chongzhen, because of the crime of angering Emperor Chongzhen and dismissed.

However, apart from the fact that this person likes to form a party to fight for power and profit, there is no stain on his national integrity.

When the Hongguang court collapsed and the southern capital fell, it coincided with the foreign governor Zunyi, in the case of the collapse of the Ming Dynasty and the surrender of many ministers, he traveled all the way to the south, did not descend to the Qing, and died of illness in Renhuai, Guizhou in the first year of Yongli.

It is precisely for this reason that now Emperor Chongzhen did not treat such a person harshly, but left him a dignity, let him go home to study, and keep it in the future so that he can be used where he is needed.

Although there is only one word difference between Wang Yinghua and Wang Yingxiong, there is no connection between the two.

Wang Yingxiong is a native of Ba County, Chongqing, while Wang Yinghua is a native of Dongguan, Guangdong.

Wang Yingxiong belongs to the kind of person who is full of thorns, smelly and hard, and loves to pick right and wrong, while Wang Yinghua is a person who is exquisite, sophisticated, and good at cooperation.

Under Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou and the governor of Guizhou, what is needed is people who are good at adhering to the will and cooperating, rather than people who are not convinced by anyone and like to engage in fighting.

Besides, changing the land and returning to the stream is something that Emperor Chongzhen has decided to do, how can he allow anyone to oppose it at the beginning?

In the area under the jurisdiction of the Tusi of Daming's Jianzhou Prefecture, although the reform of the land will attract opposition, and even make Yu Chongming and An Bangyan win more support among the Tusi in Yunnan, Guichuan, Guihuguang and other places, it still has to be done, and if you don't take this opportunity to do it, there will be no suitable excuse to do it in the future.

In fact, it has always been the pursuit of the Ming Dynasty to set up a county and change the land to the stream, and it will be implemented immediately as long as it finds an opportunity.

Moreover, it can be said that there was no land reform and return to the river during the Yongle period, and there would be no establishment of Guizhou Province.

This point has something to do with the Shuidong Song family.

When Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, expelled Meng Yuan and established the Ming Dynasty, the area of Yunnan and Guizhou was already full of toasts, and as soon as the Ming Dynasty army arrived, these toasts were annexed one after another.

Because the Northern Yuan forces that fled to Saibei at that time were still strong, Zhu Yuanzhang put the focus of the campaign in the north, and basically inherited the policy of the Yuan Dynasty on the issue of dealing with the Tusi forces in the southwest.

In the Tusi area with a large territory area and a large population, a consolation division is established, and the head of the Tusi serves as a consolation envoy.

If it is a little smaller, it will set up a propaganda department or pacification department, and the head of the Tusi family will serve as the propaganda envoy or pacification envoy as usual.

Under the Propaganda and Pacification Division, countless chief lawsuits and deputy chief lawsuits have been set up.

In this way, at the beginning of the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, the Tusi family in the southwest region, except for a few unruly families that were eradicated, most of the Tusi families of ethnic minorities who had been hereditary for hundreds of years were canonized and preserved.

And this place in Guizhou was basically controlled by four huge Tusi families in the early Ming Dynasty, namely the Tian family in Sizhou Sinan area, the Yang family in Banzhou, the Song family in Shuidong, and the An family in Shuixi.

These Tusi families, in addition to paying some tribute to the imperial court every year to pay some local products such as cinnabar, have full power in their own jurisdiction, which is almost equivalent to an independent kingdom.

At that time, the power of the imperial court could not penetrate into the hinterland of Guizhou, so at the beginning, in addition to the establishment of the Guizhou Propaganda Division, only the command of the envoy was set up to ensure the smooth flow of the Yunnan-Guizhou Post Road.

In the tenth year of Yongle, the leader of the Sizhou Tian Tusi, the most powerful of the four major Tusi in Guizhou, took advantage of a defeat of the imperial army to conquer Annan, and then launched a rebellion in the Sizhou Sinan area in northeastern Guizhou.

As a result, Sizhou and Sinan Xuanwei, who were originally two brothers in the family, did it themselves before the imperial army marched in.

Emperor Yongle, who had long wanted to do something to these Tusi, was not polite at all, and immediately sent Gu Cheng, the first Marquis of Zhenyuan, to lead an army of 50,000 to conquer and wipe out the largest Tusi family in Guizhou, the Tian family that ruled the Sizhou and Sinan regions for more than 800 years.

Tian Zongding, the leader of the Sizhou Tian clan, and Tian Chen, the leader of the Sinan Tian clan, were all punished by the Ming Jingshi Ming Zheng, and then beheaded.

The so-called "Si Sow Tian Yang, Liang Guang Cen Huang", the first of the four major toasts in the world, Sizhou Tian, has since disappeared.

At the beginning of the eleventh year of Yongle, the Yongle Emperor took advantage of the situation to abolish the Sizhou Xuanwei Division and the Sinan Xuanwei Division, and set up Sizhou, Liping, Xinhua and Shiqian in the original jurisdiction of the Sizhou Xuanwei Division, and set up Sinan, Zhenyuan, Tongren and Wuluo in the place of Sinan Xuanwei Division.

At the same time, the Guizhou Political Envoy Department was set up, and the eight government officials were set up to manage the land and people of these eight provinces, and Guizhou officially entered the stage of Chinese history as a province from then on.

And the most ruthless thing that Emperor Yongle took the opportunity to do in this Sizhou Rebellion was not to kill all the men of the Tian family of the two Xuanwei Divisions in Sizhou, but to set up the yamen of the Guizhou Political Envoy Department in Guiyang with all his thoughts.

The location of Guiyang is at the core of the Guizhou Xuanwei Division, and it is also the middle position of the Shuidong Song clan and the Shuixi An's clan who lead the Guizhou Xuanwei Division.

The so-called Shuidong Shuixi here refers to the east and west of the Yachi River in the upper reaches of the Wujiang River, and the east of the Yachi River is returned, and now the east, south and north of Guiyang are under the jurisdiction of the Shuidong Song family, that is, the famous Hongbian Song family.

To the west of the Yachi River, the vast mountains and mountains such as Anshun, Liupanshui, Qianxi, and Bijie in later generations were under the jurisdiction of the Shuixian clan to which An Bangyan belonged.

Originally, when the Sizhou Tian clan was in turmoil, when the Ming Dynasty sent troops to extinguish the Tian clan, the Banzhou Yang clan, the Shuixian clan, and the Shuidong Song clan all contributed troops, and when they burned and looted the Sinan area of Sizhou, and cut the grass to eradicate the relatives of the Gentian clan, the Miao soldiers, the native soldiers and the Yi soldiers under the command of the three big Tusi were all ruthless and vigorous.

Now not only did he not get the land of Sizhou Sinan, but he was inserted by the emperor in Guiyang, a strategic place that is very important for Banzhou, Shuixi and Shuidong Xuanwei Division, which made the three families very unhappy.

However, at that time, the army of Zhenyuan Gu Cheng was in Guizhou, and none of the three Tusi leaders dared to make a mistake.

At the same time, the Shuidong Song clan, which was buried with a nail and suffered a secret loss, was the weakest of the three forces, so he could only accept the decision of Emperor Yongle.

But it was precisely because of this that the seeds of rebellion were planted in the later Banzhou Yang, Shuixian and Shuidong Song.
