Chapter 273

"Back to my lord, our army has been killed in the inner city, and the rebels have all surrendered."

The siege lasted only a few hours, and the Ming army took control of the city.

The vast majority of the rebels surrendered without resistance.

After the officers and soldiers of the five hundred Liwu towns entered the city, order in the city was quickly restored.

In the huge city, only Huang Jin and dozens of his subordinates resisted stubbornly.

But as the Ming army entered the city, dozens of rebels who were still resisting also fell under the Ming army's firearms.

The counterinsurgency of the Ming army was as rapid as the rebellion of the rebels in the left and right battalions, so that before the people in the city could react, the Ming officers and soldiers entered the city.

Shuishi Town is also worthy of being the elite division brought out by Xiao Wu, after entering the city, he did not loot or kill, but quickly controlled the main roads in the city, controlled the city defense, and the camp.

"You dare to betray my Ming Court." As soon as Zhao Zhen, the general of Zuozhen in Shuishi Town, entered the city, he saw Huang Jin being captured by the officers and soldiers of Liwu Town, and knelt on the ground with five flowers.

Huang Jin didn't reply, but looked at Yang Yandi without saying a word.

"Why are you rebelling?" Yang Yandi looked at the old subordinate in front of him and said coldly.

"Not only do I want to rebel, but the officers and soldiers of the left and right battalions must rebel, and the people in this city must rebel." Huang Jin is still unrepentant.

"Why?"

"Have I ever treated you badly or the left and right camps in the slightest, why should I rebel?" Yang Yandi asked puzzled.

He really didn't understand why Huang Jin and the officers and soldiers of the left and right battalions rebelled, and the left and right battalions were in the city, if Huang Jin and the rebels really wanted to rebel, there were obviously many times when they could rebel, just like Xiao Wu was in the city, Huang Jin could also rebel himself, but why was it when he went to Luzon to stay away from Jiading.

If Huang Jin rebelled while he was staying in the city, he was afraid that he would really die without a place to be buried.

This made Yang Yandi shudder, because he had not noticed that Huang Jin and the left and right camps would rebel at all.

"Betrayal!" Huang Jin spat out.

"Why did the last general betray your lordship?"

"At the beginning, the soldiers of our army followed the adults to this barren land, and together with the adults, recruited the displaced people to defend against the fans, why, because the brothers just wanted to have a place to live." Huang Jindao.

"That's why I chose to return to the Luzon Ming Court with General Chen, just to find a place for the people of Jiading." Yang Yandi said bitterly.

In this battle, whether it was the officers and soldiers of Liwu Town who died earlier, or the rebels of the left and right battalions, they were all his brothers.

In the final analysis, it's all about their own brothers killing each other.

"Ming Ting, my lord is embarrassed to explain the court." Huang Jin sneered.

"My lord, do you know what the Ming Court has done to us Meidi Ming people in the more than two months since you left with General Chen?" He glanced viciously at Zhao Zhen, the commander of Zuo Zhen, the sailor on the side.

"Xiao Wu in the name of the Ming Dynasty for the northern expedition to levy grain resound, just one month from the people to loot grain and grass 200,000 stones, silver taels hundreds of carts, if the people have complaints, that is, recruit Ming soldiers to scold, in January the implementation of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes is as high as more than 20 kinds, the people in the city bankrupt innumerable, displaced people, adults think that we wait, why do you want to oppose?" Huang Jin asked.

"Is that the case?" Yang Yandi glared at Xue Wenjing angrily.

Xue Wenjing was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know how to defend for a while.

Yang Yandi couldn't help but be furious when he saw this, and pointed at Zhao Zhen and said, "How can you treat the people of Jiading like this."

If the Ming court really treated the people of Jiading like this, it can also explain why the officers and soldiers of the left and right battalions rebelled, and even the people in the city responded one after another, so that the huge Meidi rebelled in just a few days, so that the Ming army had to retreat to Haikou.

"My lord, the brothers are fighting with the people here just in the hope that the adults can lead us to stand on our own feet here and not be exploited by Quang Nam, but for the sake of their own future, the brothers and the people of the whole city betrayed us and the people, how can we not hate, how can we not rebel." Huang Jindao.

"Take him down, send him back to Haikou, and let General Xiao dispose of it." Zhao Zhen couldn't listen to it anymore, and hurriedly ordered his soldiers to take him away, and in order to prevent him from being demagogued, he directly ordered someone to send him to Haikou.

"My lord, I think there must be a misunderstanding, presumably General Xiao is also thinking about the Ming Court's plan for the Northern Expedition." After Xue Wenjing saw that Huang Jin was taken away by the Ming army, he hurriedly explained to Yang Yandi.

"The Northern Expedition is a great plan, so do you need to sacrifice the people of my Jiading?" Yang Yandi was already furious.

"I will definitely inform the Luzon Ming Court of this matter." After speaking, Yang Yandi rushed away angrily.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhen smiled helplessly, and he had also heard of Xiao Wu's perverse behavior in Meidi.

However, up and down the Shuishi Town, whether it was Xu Bin or Zhao Zhen, or even those businessmen from the Land and Sea Chamber of Commerce, they all chose to ignore it.

The reason is also very simple, the Ming army went on an expedition to Jiading.

Garrisoning Haikou, there were almost 2,000 Ming officers and soldiers in the Jiading area.

With so many people eating and drinking, is it possible that the Land and Sea Chamber of Commerce will buy grain from Hoi An and other places and transport it to Jiading?

The wool naturally comes out of the sheep, and the eating and drinking of so many Ming soldiers naturally comes out of Jiading.

The Dongpu area of Jiading has long been plagued by the entry of the Zhenla soldiers, and the people have long been miserable, and the displaced people are everywhere.

Xiao Wu naturally had no choice but to put the money and food on the head of the Mei Di Ming people.

In addition, the Ming court originally planned to set Jiading as the rear of the army to collect grain and taxes, so the people in the Chaomei area have been increasing these days to collect various taxes.

And these Xiao Wu or the Ting did not dare to do anything on Luzon Island, that is, for fear of rebellion.

Quang Nam,

After the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce paid some silver taels and dotted up and down, Su Langqing and his entourage finally embarked on the road to Hue City.

In order to avoid accidents on the road, and also to monitor these Ming merchants, officials from Hoi An and other places specially sent a team of Quang Nam soldiers to escort them.

The Ming Shang and his entourage stopped and stopped along the way, and it took about half a month to arrive at the foot of Hue City.

As the capital city of Quang Nam, Hue is clearly influenced by Chinese culture, and has more of a Chinese flavor than the diversification of port cities such as Hoi An.

Although the Nguyen lord of Quang Nam divided one side, causing the situation of the North and South dynasties in Quang Nam, the Nguyen lord did not establish a state, but belonged to the secession regime, and was still nominally subordinate to the LĂŞ dynasty in the north.

After the Ming merchants and their entourage arrived in Hue City, they immediately alarmed the Quang Nam ministers.

After hearing that Ming Shang and his entourage had arrived at Hue City, Lord Quang Nam Nguyen couldn't help frowning when he looked at the documents of the Hoi An officials who had just been delivered to him.

"Huang Jin rebelled against the Ming army in Jiading not long ago, and now the Ming court envoy has come to Hue City, hehe!" Ruan Phuc sneered.

He was very dissatisfied with the measures taken by Hoi An officials.

"Then whether to let Ming Shang enter the city." The official on the side asked.

"Let it enter the city, so as not to lose the dignity of Quang Nam." Ruan Phuc said indifferently.
