Chapter 666: Rebel General

"Bold!" Seeing that Li Yuntian wanted people to take him down, the stout Baihu's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he pointed at Li Yuntian and said angrily, "This official is an official of the imperial court, do you want to make trouble?" ”

As he spoke, a group of Li Yuntian's guards rushed outside the door, and they ran towards the stout hundred households with expressionless faces.

Seeing this, the men behind the stout hundred households drew their waist knives and rushed forward, blocking the way of those guards, which made the atmosphere at the scene suddenly tense.

Seeing this, the military attachΓ©s of the Xiaowu Army and the officials of the Hu Duo Mercy Department stood up one after another, and some of their hands involuntarily touched the hilt of the waist knife, and they all drank a lot of wine, as long as there was a little spark, it would inevitably cause a group fight.

The face of the stout Baihu couldn't help but become ugly, he only brought more than 20 subordinates with him this time, if he was beaten, he would definitely suffer a big loss, and he might lose his life.

"Embroidered Spring Knife!" Suddenly, the stout Baihu noticed the oblique sheath of the waist knife hanging from the waists of the guards who were confronting his subordinates, and his eyes suddenly showed a look of astonishment, and then he turned to look at Li Yuntian in surprise, "You are from the Xiaowu Army?" ”

Because the Suzaku Camp of the Xiaowu Army is in Liaodong, the stout hundred households have seen the saber of the Xiaowu Army military attache of the Suzaku Battalion, and know that the saber used by the Xiaowu Army military attache is the embroidered spring knife of Emperor Xuande's special edict, and only Jinyi Wei can use it in Daming except for the people who speak martial arts, otherwise they will be severely punished.

It is worth mentioning that although the saber of the martial arts hall and the Xiuchun knife of the Jinyiwei look exactly the same in appearance, in fact, the two sides are not the same, and the saber of the martial arts hall has been improved and is more suitable for the combat of the army.

"Now that you know that we are members of the Xiaowu Army, then you know the fate of resisting arrest!" Li Yuntian didn't answer the stout hundred households, and Lei Ting, who was sitting at the top of him, shouted quietly.

"Quick...... Put down the knife! The stout Baihu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, Lei Ting's words were undoubtedly admitting that they were Xiaowu Army, his face couldn't help but change a few times, and he hurriedly shouted at those men who were carrying knives.

After hearing the shouts, the subordinates withdrew their swords one after another, and stood there confronting the guards, after all, this is outside the Guan, and it is the territory of the Nuer Gandu Division, so they are not afraid of the Xiaowu Army, although the name of the Xiaowu Army has become famous over the years, but the real influential places are Gyeonggi, Jiaozhi, and Guangxi.

As for the Guanwai, the Xiaowu Army only set up a large Suzaku camp in Liaodong, did not interfere in local affairs, and acted very low-key.

"Dare to ask what position this lord holds in the Xiaowu Army?" Under the surprised gaze of everyone, the stout hundred households bowed their hands to Li Yuntian, bowed down and asked, he can be majestic in front of his fierce brother Timur, but in front of the military attache of the Xiaowu Army, he must act in accordance with etiquette.

"This official is a secretary of the Jiangwutang Government Affairs Hall, and he was ordered to come to Liaodong this time to take charge of the logistics affairs of the Xiaowu Army." Hearing this, Li Yuntian looked at the stout hundred households quietly, and said in a deep voice, "Since you are the hundred households of the Yamen of the Liaodong Prefecture, you should naturally know the dignity and humility of the officialdom, how can you offend the commander of the fierce brother Timur?" ”

"I am reckless for a while, and I hope that my lord will forgive my sins." Seeing that Li Yuntian actually maintained the authority of his brother Timur, he couldn't help but be quite surprised, but Li Yuntian's words were indefensible, so he honestly bowed to Li Yuntian and pleaded guilty.

To tell the truth, the officials of the Ming army have always despised the officials of the indigenous tribe guards outside the Guan, and they did not regard them as officials of the Ming Dynasty at all, so they naturally would not treat them according to the etiquette of the Ming officialdom.

"You offended the commander of Brother Meng's Timur, and if you want to atone for your sins, let him atone for your sins, otherwise this official will take you to the Yamen of the Liaodong Metropolitan Division to ask for guilt." Li Yuntian knew that the Ming army outside the Guanwai usually flaunted their might to those officials of the indigenous guard station, and regarded themselves as officials of the Heavenly Empire, so he was not prepared to cure the sin of the thick and strong hundred households, and quietly called him.

"Brother Meng, Lord Timur, I was so anxious that I was so impatient that I was humble, please forgive me." The stout Baihu heard the meaning of Li Yuntian's words, and hurriedly bowed down and said to Brother Meng's Timur.

"It's just a misunderstanding." Brother Meng Timur saw that Li Yuntian helped him take a sulky breath, and he couldn't help but feel relieved in his heart, and waved his hand to the stout hundred households disappreciatively, and said loudly, "Come on, serve wine to the hundred households!" ”

For Brother Meng, Timur, he has now taken a big advantage, so it is better to turn this matter into a small matter, after all, it is not easy to offend the people of the Liaodong Metropolitan Division, so as not to hold a grudge and retaliate afterwards.

"Master Xie." Hearing this, the stout Baihu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on the seat that had been vacated for him, and his soldiers were also taken down to settle down.

"Why did Master Pei send you here this time?" Waiting for the stout hundred households to sit firmly on the kang, Li Yuntian asked quietly, and the Lord Pei in his mouth was referring to Pei Jun, the commander of the Liaodong Metropolitan Division.

If Li Yuntian is not mistaken, Pei Jun should be busy appeasing the thousands of Yang Mu Dawu who defected to the 30,000 guards who defected to Mao Lianwei's Amu River, and the arrival of the stout hundred households must have something to do with this matter, otherwise, Pei Jun, as the commander of the Liaodong Metropolitan Division, would not be able to restrain the Jianzhou Left Guard who belonged to the Nuer Gandu Division.

"My lord, I came here this time to deliver an official letter to Lord Pei to Brother Meng, Lord Timur." At this time, the stout hundred households had already restrained their desire to make mistakes, and after taking out an official document from his arms, he explained to Li Yuntian, "Master Pei invited Brother Meng, Lord Timur, to go with him to Mao Lianwei's Amu River to pick up the soldiers and people who were instigated by the rebel general Yang Mu Dawu and left under duress. ”

Yang Mu Dawu is the patriarch of a wealthy family of the Jurchens in Haixi, and a thousand households in the 30,000 guards of the Anle Prefecture in the eastern capital of the Ming Dynasty.

Because he could not bear to endure the Liaodong Metropolitan Sidu's command of Wang Xiong's "life and abuse", in the twenty-first year of Yongle, Yang Mu Dawu broke with the Ming Dynasty, led the army to break through Kaiyuan City, and coerced more than 1,000 families to move to Mao Lianwei with him.

It is worth mentioning that Mao Lianwei had been controlled by the Korean State at that time, and became Huining of Hamgyong Province, North Korea, but nominally he was still Mao Lianwei of the Ming Nuer Gandu Division, which was also the place where the King of Joseon had always been obsessed, and he wanted to occupy the controlled territory to the Ming Dynasty many times.

After Yang Mu Dawu defected, Emperor Yongle, Emperor Hongxi, and Emperor Xuande all sent people to appease him many times, hoping that he could lead the people back to Anle Prefecture, but they were unsuccessful due to the obstruction of the Korean state.

Before Emperor Xuande's imperial expedition, he gave a holy edict to the Liaodong Metropolitan Division, asking the Liaodong Metropolitan Division to appease Yang Mu Tawu again, and it was necessary to let the people who were surrounded by Yang Mu Dawu return to Anle Prefecture.

Because Yang Mu Tawu had a relationship with Meng's brother Timur before, and Meng's brother Timur was the most loyal chief to the Ming Dynasty among the Jianzhou Jurchens, Pei Jun naturally asked him to help complete this matter, so he sent his hundreds of households to deliver the official document.

"Ten years have passed since the Yang Mu Dawu incident, and it's time to solve it!" Li Yuntian couldn't help but nod after listening to the words of the stout hundred households, and said thoughtfully.

In the first year of Hongxi, Mingrenzong sent an edict to Yang Mu and others, saying: "You and other people who are supported by the imperial court, lose sincerity and serve, and work hard for the country, but not for a day." The former was unable to soothe Sui because he commanded Wang Xiong, and he was tormented, causing panic and fleeing...... The special commander Jin Shengyun told Er, and I knew that you had to wait for a last resort. ”

Li Yuntian was a Shuji scholar at that time, and was responsible for drafting the edict of Emperor Hongxi, which included this edict to Yang Mu Dawu, so he was clear about Yang Mu Dawu.

With this edict of Emperor Hongxi, in October of the first year of Hongxi, Yang Manpi, the younger brother of Yang Mutawu, went to the capital for Hajj under the escort of his brother Timur, and met Emperor Xuande in the capital at the beginning of the first year of Xuande.

Because of the meritorious escort of Meng's brother Timur, Emperor Xuande immediately promoted Meng's brother Timur to the governor's office, and gave him a crown belt, and Yang Manpi was also promoted to a thousand households.

Emperor Xuande replied to Yang Mu: "In the past, my emperor Taizong Wen served the country, and he also had a long life", "You can repent and send your brother Yang Manpi and others to the court, which shows the heart of admiration."

Yang Manpi was influenced by Emperor Xuande in the capital, so he began to turn his heart to the Ming Dynasty, and after returning to Mao Lianwei, he persuaded his brother Yang Mu to accept the invitation.

In fact, Yang Mu Dawu did not live well in Mao Lianwei, and he wanted to stay in Kongzhou, where Mao Lianwei was the richest, but was rejected by Li Tao, the king of Joseon.

Kongzhou was originally the territory of the Jianzhou Jurchen Duo Pian tribe, and later the fierce brother Timur was driven away by force by the Korean army, and had to lead the troops to move to Qingshan City, but there are still many people from the Duo Pian tribe in Kongzhou.

Although Kongzhou was already under the control of the Korean state, if Yang Mu Dawu wanted to gain a foothold in Kongzhou, he had to obtain the consent of his master, Meng's brother Timur, who was above the name of Kongzhou, so as not to cause misunderstandings between the two sides.

Meng's brother Timur treated people with courtesy, was humble, and understood the difficulties of Yang Mu Tawu, so he was also a Jurchen family, so he was allowed to stay in Kongzhou, and specially sent people to the palace of the Korean king Guoqingyuan.

The official document mentions that Yang Mu, a Jurchen who had lived in Kaiyuan for a long time, "did not have a place to live because of the rebellion in China", and led "more than 1,000 women and children to live in Kongzhou, and then came out".

More than three months later, He Jing, the commander of the Xianji Dao soldiers and horses, replied to the king of Joseon, saying that "Yang Mu answered the small army of the Wulian family, and there were thousands of men and women."

Obviously, the Mengge Timur deliberately reduced the population of Yangmut in the official document, so as not to make the Joseon kingdom wary of the growth of Jurchen power in the Kongzhou region.

In order to expand his territory, the Joseon king Li Yi was naturally reluctant to let Yang Mu Jingwu lead his troops to move to the rich Kongzhou, so that the Joseon kingdom would weaken its control over Kongzhou.

According to the record of Sejong in the "Records of the Li Dynasty", Yang Mu Jingwu was "extremely brave, and when provoked, it was very difficult to control", and "the fierce brother Timur and Yang Mu Jingwu were both giant traitors".

If Yang Mu Jingwu moved to Kongzhou, then it would inevitably enhance the power of the Jianzhou Jurchens, so the Korean king Li Tao replied to Meng's brother Timur: Yang Mu Jingwu is a native of Liaodong and is not allowed to enter the territory of Kongzhou.

Yang Mu Dawu respected his brother Timur, and in order not to embarrass him, he immediately moved to the north of the Tumen River to live in the isolated mountains and old forests, and lived a difficult life.

Therefore, after receiving Emperor Xuande's edict, Yang Mu had a change of heart and began to escort the captured Han people back to Liaodong in batches.

However, the matter was met with trouble and obstruction from the beginning, and when Yang Manpi led hundreds of Han Chinese to the Amu River, he was attacked by the Korean army in ambush, and all the Han people he brought with him were taken away.

Yang Manpi then sent 1,000 households to Hamgyong Province to ask the Korean state to return the population, and the Korean kingdom replied after some planning:

"Today, people said that we originally lived in Kaiyang City, and were captured by Yang Mu Jingwu to the Amu River, and Tong Meng's brother Timur's brother Fancha and Yu Sha Ha Ziquan Dou were divided into slaves, or resold Wu Diha, which was very difficult. I am willing to return to the land because of the desire of the great powers. The people of the country want to return to the homeland, and they must not forbid it. and then send down the holy decree, so that the country will push it, and you will know it. If you return it to you today, it will be contrary to the general situation, and you cannot follow it. ”

The king of Joseon meant that in the twenty-second year of Yongle, Emperor Yongle had issued an order to the Korean kingdom to rescue the soldiers and civilians who had been taken captive by him from Yangmutagu, so they robbed those soldiers and civilians this time just to act on orders.

Therefore, the Korean army sent the hundreds of Han Chinese to Liaodong in the name of the Joseon Kingdom, which aroused the dissatisfaction of Yang Mu Tagu, so that the Han Chinese were counted on the head of the Joseon Kingdom, so he sent Yang Manpi to negotiate with Hamgyong Province the following year, but the result was in vain.
