Chapter 164: Raiders of the Warriors
In the yamen of the Fuzhou prefect, except for Zhu Yong, the Marquis of Funing, who was still in Xinghua Mansion, the rest of the ministers gathered.
The counterinsurgency was a great success!
The key ally is zero battle damage.
During the march and pursuit, one or two hundred people suffered accidents, of which more than a dozen were crushed to death by heavy wagons, the rest were wounded without hurting their muscles and bones, and more non-combat attrition was due to the fact that they did not adapt to the climate of Fujian and did not adapt to the water and soil, and three to five hundred people died.
Well, in order to ensure the logistics of Zhu Jianji's department, the people who were responsible for transporting grain and grass died one or two hundred people.
That's all the loss.
This record can be said to be unprecedented, unprecedented!
When he returned to Gyeonggi, it was indispensable to add officials to the knighthood, which made those civil officials who followed Zhu Jianji to pick peaches overjoyed, and instantly felt that it didn't matter if Fujian investigated overseas smuggling again.
Fujian officialdom is already rotten, and many traitors' houses were "accidentally" destroyed in the war, and nothing can be found in the investigation.
That would have been their task.
Wu An took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, coughed, got up and said: "In this rebellion, a total of 100 households, 1,000 households, 36 commanders and commanders of the rebel army were killed, 582 enemies were annihilated, and 46 civil and military officials of the puppet regime were captured. β
It looks like the record is poor.
More than 100,000 people went on the expedition, but more than 500 enemies were killed, and so many of them died because of the water and soil adaptation.
It's not so much a war.
It's more of a strategy full of war.
Wu An continued: "Now the entire territory of Fujian is under the control of the Fujian Metropolitan Division. β
Zhu Jianji nodded.
Wu An is the eldest brother of the emperor's grandmother, and the Fujian capital is in his hands, which basically belongs to the imperial power, and he said without a trace: "Please also ask An Pingbo to continue to lead the troops and clear the rebel rout and many rogues circulating in Fujian." β
Nothing happened to Yu Qian.
Wu An received the order.
Zhu Jianji looked at Yu Qian, "Yu Shaobao, go back to the teacher?" β
Yu Qian nodded.
If you don't return to the division, will you fight for military power with His Royal Highness the Prince in Fujian, but you can't fight for it, the princelings are all here, and this time to quell the rebellion, a large number of civil servants who followed the prince to the south are estimated to have been co-opted a lot.
It makes no sense for Yu Qian to stay in Fujian.
Zhu Jianji continued: "After Yu Shaobao returns to Gyeonggi, His Majesty, Gu still needs to sit in Fujian for a few months, and then lead the army north. β
Yu Qian nodded expressionlessly, amused in his heart.
As for the little bit of tiredness in His Royal Highness the Prince's heart, who can't see it?
It's time to get ready to make money.
Understandable.
After all, the money given to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince by the Ministry of Household is only enough to raise a young army of 300 people, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to expand the young army, and the current situation in Fujian is the best opportunity.
Zhu Jianji said to Zhu Dianpei, the king of Ning, who was sitting on the side and had not said a word: "His Royal Highness King Ning, stay in Fujian for a while?" β
Zhu Dianpei was helpless.
He knew what Zhu Jianji meant.
Of the five large battalions of the regimental battalion, at most two can be left, and the remaining three will return to Gyeonggi as a reserve combat force for the northern defense line after the beginning of spring next year, and the Jiangxi Metropolitan Division will return to the garrison next.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince planned to return the same way, and estimated that he would have to go to Nanyang, Henan Province to blackmail Tang King Zhu Qiongjing.
Leaving him in Fujian all the way back was for safety.
King Ning is in hand, and he is not worried about chaos in Jiangxi.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
There is a turmoil in Fujian, the mountains and rivers are unharmed, but the officialdom has been sparse.
Most of the yamen were paralyzed and suspended.
Even the brocade guards are the same.
Jinyiwei on the Fujian side, although there are not many people who follow the rebellion on the surface, but when Yu Qian asked people to send the transcript back to Beijing, he died on the way, and Fujian Jinyiwei could not escape the blame.
After completely controlling Fujian, Yu Qian had already asked Wu An to thoroughly investigate the Jinyi guards.
So the brocade guard is also abolished.
Yu Qian led the army back to Beijing, and the left and right political envoys, left and right political envoys, left and right senators, and deputy envoys of the Fujian Chengxuan Political Envoy Department appointed by the imperial court were still on the way, and Zhu Jianji asked Zhang Peng and Wang Yue to temporarily take charge of the general affairs, and let Wu An cooperate to restore order in Fujian officialdom as soon as possible.
And then......
And he got busy.
Busy making money.
The day after Yu Qian left, Zhu Jianji immediately ordered Zhu Yong and Dai Yi to come back from Xinghua Mansion - the house deed and field deed left by the old monk Zhu Yunwen were convenient to take away, but the old monk put the house deed and field deed at the end was a list.
A detailed record of how much gold, silver, pearls and jade and other cash were stored in the basements of the three manors in Xinghua Mansion, and a brief estimate at that time was about one million taels.
Coupled with the house deed and land deed, only the wealth left by Zhu Yunwen is at least two million taels!
Zhu Jianji was shocked at that time.
Engaging in overseas trade is so lucrative.
Coupled with the property of Jianwen's remnants learned from Zheng Kai, at least seven or eight million taels, all the assets added up to almost half of the annual fiscal tax of the Ming Dynasty!
Decades of precipitation are truly terrifying.
Zhu Jianji asked Zhu Yong to guard in Xinghua Mansion.
After Qian left, he dared to let Zhu Yong take these things back to Fuzhou.
Otherwise, if Yu Qian saw it, it was estimated that it would have to fill the treasury.
At the same time that Zhu Yong came back from Xinghua Mansion, Zhu Jianji began to meet with the local scholars in Fujian in Fuzhou Mansion, because Zhu Zunxi and Zhu Qizhen rebelled, and some of these scholars entered the office, and now it is the time to settle accounts after the autumn.
Zhang Peng and Wang Yue knew that this was a good opportunity to strengthen the power of the East Palace, and vigorously cooperated, as long as there was a connection between the puppet court and the local scholars, they would postpone the interrogation.
Let's take the rest of the trial first.
Then convicted and reported to the crown prince Zhu Jianji, after Zhu Jianji decided, the exterminator was handed over to Wu An, and the family was handed over to Wei Nanfeng, and for a time the whole Fujian was full of blood.
Quite a few people died.
For example, Li Chaorong, the prefect of Quanzhou, and Wang Libai, the left senator of the Fujian Chengxuan Political Envoy Division, these two people are from Zhejiang.
The commander of the Fujian capital made Wu An know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wanted to do.
But all the families who had people who came out during the rebellion were blocked by the troops of the Fujian Metropolitan Division, in a word: Wait for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to decide that you will wait for life and death.
Zhu Jianji deliberately dragged them for several days, scaring these families enough, until a few days before the end of the year, he notified these scholars to send a person with a high status to Fuzhou to meet them.
The meaning is clear.
If you are sensible, you can still live the Spring Festival of Jingtai for ten years, and you are not sensible......
The whole clan goes to the underworld for a reunion!
Fujian scholars, traced their roots to the period of the southern crossing of clothes.
There are eight surnames of Lin, Huang, Chen, Zheng, Zhan, Qiu, He, and Hu, and the eight surnames first settled in northern Fujian and Jin'an, and then gradually spread to the coastal areas of central Fujian and southern Fujian.
Because of the eight surnames into Fujian, Fujian is also known as eight Fujian.
At present, most of the local scholars in Fujian are also these eight surnames.
It is these eight clans that Zhu Jianji wants to handle.
Cheap dad Zhu Qiyu planned this big chess game, one of the purposes is to extort a sum of money from these scholars in Fujian, not only to spit out the profits of overseas smuggling.
It's very benevolent.
No raids, no extermination.
They can't even kill a few people, they only need to pay 100 million points of interest, and the court can turn a blind eye to their affairs in this rebellion, only for the individuals who are out of the ranks.
Reasonable.
Because for these scholars, as long as their roots are still there, the money will be recovered sooner or later.
However, Zhu Jianji thought they were wishful thinking.
Wait for Lao Tzu to ascend the throne and reformββ
The nobles are all finished!
And now it's time to reap the fruits of victory!
