Chapter 55: The Real Big Winner

On the New Year's Day of the 29th year of Wanli, Zhu Yijun spread all over the world: Tian Henfeng, Yang Chaodong, Yang Zhaolong, He Hanliang, Tian Feipeng, Tian Yipeng, Sun Shitai, Ma Qiansi, etc., were beheaded at the entrance of the vegetable market. The rest of those who were pardoned for capital sins were also castrated into slavery or assigned to the priests, and only escaped with their lives.

The first of the heinous crimes is rebellion, and under this heinous crime, the only one that ends up better is because of the evil taste of Emperor Wanli, and was given to Ye Xiaotian's Yang Hua Yang Xiao Lori.

Subsequently, the imperial court embalmed the heads of Yang Yinglong and his henchmen, and immediately transmitted them to Sichuan, Guizhou, Yungui and other places, which was a deterrent to all parties.

The Yang family's nearly 800-year-old Banzhou foundation was destroyed, and the Yang clan was almost wiped out, until the last moment, more than 5,500 thieves who still guarded the sea dragon hoard, were exiled to Fujian and Guangzhou.

In this battle, the imperial court killed more than 20,000 thieves, captured nearly 6,000 of its thieves, and successively captured or surrendered nearly 120,000 people.

In this battle, the imperial court won, but in fact it was also a tragic victory. For this battle, the imperial court transferred troops from 15 provinces, and Li Hualong personally selected more than 100 "shrewd and capable" governors of prefectures and counties from all over the country, and mobilized weapons and equipment from weapons factories and armories in 10 provinces.

In the last battle of the attack on Hailongho alone, the imperial court lost 78 generals and more than 4,600 soldiers, nearly 1,000 seriously wounded, nearly 2,500 lightly wounded, and the total casualties reached an astonishing 30,000 with the addition of native soldiers.

In the whole battle, because the Ming army blindly advanced in the early stage and was repeatedly ambushed and completely annihilated, the total number of casualties was four to five times that of Banzhou, isn't this a tragic victory?

The household department was anxiously calculating the accounts: in this battle, the imperial court spent 2.5 million taels of silver, 170,000 copper coins, and 320,000 stones of rice. 70,000 catties of dried fish, salt, ginger, dried garlic, vegetables......

This is only related to eating, but what about medicinal herbs? What about bereavement benefits? What about rewards? What about the robes? What about gunpowder? What about ordnance? What about war horses? When Emperor Wanli woke up from his excitement, he suddenly found that he, the big winner, actually didn't win anything.

If you really want to say that there is a winner, Zhu Yijun gritted his teeth and found out: The real big winner is actually Ye Xiaotian!

Ye Xiaotian took advantage of this battle, and he was already a strong soldier, and now the entire Sinan has completely fallen into his hands. That's not all, half of Banshu also fell into his hands.

Yuqing, Meitan, Wengshui, Baini, Caotang, Huangping, the entire land of the six mansions are all in Ye Xiaotian's control.

Can Zhu Yijun get it back? Yes! The question is, who will he give it to after he gets it back?

Is there anyone more reassuring to him than Ye Xiaotian? Compared with those who have guarded the land for hundreds of years, Ye Xiaotian, a hateful guy, is actually the most trustworthy person he can't admit even though he doesn't want to admit it, but he can only pinch his nose and admit it.

For hundreds of years, the Banzhou Five Divisions and Seven Surnames who have followed the Yang family. Because of this battle, their rule in Banshu has been completely disrupted. Those who got on the Yang thief ship were either killed in battle, and those who did not die were also included in the list of dead friends who went to Beijing to ask for beheading.

He did not participate in the Yang rebellion, but he also did not show loyalty to the imperial court. Instead, he blindly waited and watched, and his hereditary official position was also canceled, but this complete destruction was mainly concentrated in the northern front, because the southern line was fully taken over by Ye Xiaotian in advance. As a result, there has not been much war.

These places surrendered to Ye Xiaotian before Yang Yinglong collapsed, so those local officials belonged to the battle, which was different from some local officials who always maintained "neutrality". Wanli is the emperor, and the dignified son of heaven can't be punished without teaching.

Besides, even if he wanted to eat it in one bite, he couldn't do it. The local power there is too strong, and it is not his holy decree at all, saying that if it becomes a land of exile, it can become a land of exile.

Although Wanli has made up his mind to carry out the system of liuguan there, he can only replace the prefect, the prefecture, and the county with the people of the imperial court, and as for the official positions such as the tongzhi, the county magistrate, the judge, and the chief bookkeeper, a large number of local magistrates should be appointed to serve in order to effectively issue government decrees.

Rao is like this, he suddenly took over such a large piece of territory, and after these officials took office, it was still between the two sides whether they could control these areas well, and if they didn't get it, it would be a large area of "Huxian", which became a big burden for the imperial court. At that time, where will you go to find so many Ye Xiaotian who are not stingy and do something to set things right?

Wanli is really unwilling! Originally, he gave Yang Hua to Ye Xiaotian, but he just wanted to add some blockage to Ye Xiaotian, but he didn't think that he could really kill Ye Xiaotian by using this Yang Hua. After all, Ye Xiaotian knew Yang Hua's identity, how could he not take precautions? But at this time, he really wanted to let that little girl chop Ye Xiaotian to pieces, so as to relieve the hatred in his heart.

Luo Daheng ran to the capital to pretend to be the God of Wealth, money opened the way, up and down, Ye Xiaotian cheekily asked for merit and the chapter also arrived, gradually, the ministers of civil and military affairs supported the division of Banzhou into two, half of which was handed over to Ye Xiaotian to implement the local official system, and half of the officials who were included in the liuguan system began to increase.

But Zhu Yijun was still carrying it, although he knew that this was the best way to stabilize the rule of the imperial court, but he didn't want Ye Xiaotian to succeed so easily.

And Ye Xiaotian obviously guessed that Emperor Wanli would not let go easily, he had completely obtained the ruling power of the entire Sinan because of his military exploits, and obtained the official position of Xuanfu Envoy, and the emperor would immediately assign the six prefectures of Banzhou to him and promote him to become the highest-level Xuanfu envoy among the local officials?

Ye Xiaotian looked at Huahua, a little maid who was dressed in green clothes and waiting for tea next to the desk, and the little girl was staring at him with a pair of big eyes, as if she wanted to stare him to death. Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but shake his head secretly. How can it be! Just give me this girl to the black-bellied fellow, he can't be so easy.

Ye Xiaotian took a sip of tea and narrowed his eyes slightly: "The time is almost up, everything that should be prepared is ready, and the six prefectures of Banzhou are basically straightened out, it seems that I should go to Shuixi and Shuidong!" ”

"To the west of the water? I'll go with you! Zhan Ning'er listened to Ye Xiaotian's plan, and immediately geared up and was eager to try: "I haven't seen my grandfather for a long time, and I happened to visit his old man." ”

"Don't ......" Ye Xiaotian's heart was shocked: "Look at Yingying, look at Miaowen, when you are pregnant, you still jump up and down like you?" Sit down, with such a big belly......"

Where is Zhan Ning'er willing to listen, among the three tigers in Shuixi, she is the only one who knows martial arts, and now she has a big belly and does not feel burdensome at all: "I said it's okay, I want to go with you!" Since I am pregnant, I am not allowed to go, then I am not allowed to go, everyone is about to die of boredom! ”

Zhan Ning'er began to complain coquettishly, Ye Xiaotian had no choice but to say: "Ning'er, at other times, you can go with me, but this time...... Not! ”

Zhan Ning'er raised her eyebrows: "Why can't it be this time?" ”

Ye Xiaotian said: "This time I went, I went to find your grandfather to be abducted and cheated, if you go, caught between your grandfather and me, how to behave?" ”
