Lu Yi and Huang Zhong didn't want to stay here in the first place, but this time the holy decree asked them to go back, and the two of them were extremely excited: "Congratulations to the Marquis of Fengcheng, you will expand your territory in the future." ”

Li Bin's face seemed to be smiling: "Hehe, the lower officials also listen to Xipinghou." ”

The generals greeted each other in the hall, and Huang Fu was left aside.

At this time, a voice suddenly came from my ears: "Lord Huang should set up the Political Secretary and the Judicial Department as soon as possible." ”

When he turned around, he saw that it was Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han.

"Xia Guan understands, and when the officials of the Beijing Division are in place, they will start immediately."

"How many officials did Lord Huang bring over?" King Han asked in a good voice.

"One hundred and thirteen officials, big and small."

"But you all have families?"

"Both."

Zhu Gaoxu turned around and said: "Sheng Jian, when we vacate some good residences as soon as possible and distribute them to officials from all walks of life, they have traveled long distances and worked hard, so we must find them a good house and have a good rest." ”

"It's the king." Sheng Jian said.

Huang Fu's face showed a touched look, and then he came back to his senses: "When will King Han leave?" ”

The holy decree asked the king of Han to return to Yunnan on the same day.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "This king will leave tomorrow, Lord Huang, can I stay for one more day?" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, King Han is at will." Huang Fu is not a rigid person, otherwise Zhu Di would not have let him go.

Han Wang stayed for one more day, of course, he could only assume that he didn't know.

There were many generals at the scene, Huang Fu was not interesting to stay as a civil official, he looked up and wanted to see Ma Qi, and found that Ma Qi was no longer there, so he asked the King of Han for his resignation and left first.

In the afternoon, the Marquis of Xiping, as the new general of Zhengyi, summoned Li Bin and Chen Xu.

He ordered Li Bin to lead the 50,000 Ming troops and 100,000 Yue soldiers that had been prepared long ago, to attack the Nanzhang State to the west, and after passing through the Nanzhang State, he would then attack Mubang and other places in Burma.

Li Bin took the order and left, not daring to hesitate.

Regardless of whether the holy decree is true or not, he acted in accordance with the holy decree, and so many generals on the scene that day, including the civilian official Huang Fu, did not see it, and of course he Li Bin pretended not to know.

However, he still admired King Han in his heart, and he didn't know how King Han did it.

Then the Marquis of Xiping ordered Chen Xu to lead 100,000 soldiers and horses to the southwest to fight the Angkor Dynasty.

Mu Sheng's orders to the two were different, Li Bin went to fight the southern state, mainly to pass as soon as possible, and then go around to Burma to fight Mubang.

It was nearly 2,000 miles away, and all of them were in enemy countries, mostly mountain roads, and it was unknown how many of these 150,000 people would come back alive.

Chen Xu's fight against the Angkor Dynasty was the same as fighting Annam, every time he captured a land, he distributed the fields to the local low-level people, preaching the prestige of the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time sent troops to plunder, confiscated all the property of the rich and officials, and transported it back to Annam.

Mu Sheng finally said to Chen Xu: "The King of Han often said that in addition to creating disasters, war can also create wealth. ”

"Yunyang Bo should have seen it, we defeated Annan and Zhancheng and got tens of millions of silver."

"If you can plunder more wealth and expand your territory, this is the credit that countless Marquis Dukes of the Ming Dynasty do not have."

"At that time, it is also possible for you to become the Duke of Yunyang, Uncle Yunyang."

Chen Xu was originally unhappy to stay, but now when he heard Mu Sheng's words, his eyes immediately burst into Venus.

Expanding the territory was an immortal achievement in all dynasties, and the founding emperor didn't want to do that.

Why does Zhu Di always think about conquering Mongolia, you think you just want to get along with the Mongols, not to get a credit for expanding the territory.

So Chen Xu suddenly felt that it was good to stay.

——

April, Da Luo Wei.

To the northeast of Da Luowei is Sichuan, and to the north is Lancangwei, which is also the closest guard station to Sichuan.

Today is the day of payment on the fifth day of each month, and the time of payment of the imperial court is uncertain, but after the king of Han came, the salary was fixed on the fifth day of the month, and the ordinary sergeants were paid a little little, and they began to pay five dollars of silver per month, and later changed to one or two pieces of silver. (At that time, Zhu Gaoxu had already entered Annan and plundered a lot of money)

This is a private subsidy from the Han Dynasty, and the reason is also to subsidize the hardship expenses of Yunnan, a distant town.

Therefore, the Quanwei brothers are grateful to King Han.

But unexpectedly, from three months ago, there was suddenly news that someone reported to the imperial court, saying that the king of Han privately paid military salaries and bought people's hearts, and the court wanted to condemn the king of Han.

It has been nearly three years since the king of Han arrived in Yunnan, and the salary began with the officers of the collective training guard, and the soldiers of the ordinary guard in Yunnan were paid later, and they also took a year and a half, especially in the last year, since the king of Han went to Annam, he had more money in his hands, and he also gave them a month from five yuan to one tael.

If you want to quit, it will cost dozens of taels of silver.

In the past few months, there have been scolding everywhere in Da Luo Weili, scolding the imperial court, scolding the political envoys of Yunnan, and even secretly scolding the emperor.

Three months ago, someone mentioned the matter of Jingnan in Da Luowei, saying that the King of Han had made great contributions back then, and all the victories were fought by the King of Han, and then said that King Yan was responsible for the slaughter of the city during the Jingjing, and after defeating the official army, he also carried out a brutal massacre.

In Yunnan, the emperor is far away, and no one has ever talked about these things in the past few years, and no one knows what happened to the Ming Dynasty during the Jing Dynasty.

Then he also said that King Yan swept the north, slaughtered the people of the Ming Dynasty, and after the success of Jingnan, he killed Jianwen officials, among which the matter of destroying Fang Xiaoru's ten clans was spread all over the sky in the military camp, and some people even said that Fang Xiaoru said that the righteousness was awe-inspiring, and Zhu Di said that it was extremely tyrannical and cruel.

When these things began to spread, some officers were shocked and wanted to stop them, but they found that they couldn't stop it at all, people always like to listen to gossip, no one said it before, and everyone didn't know, but now someone says it, of course, it's a spread of ten to a hundred.

It became more and more exaggerated when it was passed on, saying that Zhu Dijing killed people at every turn during the difficulty, killed tens of thousands of people at a time, did not fight down when he hit Jinan, and killed more than 100,000 people in Shandong when he left.

Everyone was originally dissatisfied with the news that the court wanted them to return the money, but now they are more willing to speak ill of Zhu Di.

On April 5, it was another day of pay, and the commander Zhang Jie brought a few truckloads of silver to the playground.

All the soldiers had already gathered on the playground, and after seeing a few carts of silver, they didn't know who it was, and suddenly shouted: "Thank you, the king, the king is wise." ”

Then the crowd shouted at the scene, thank you to the king, the king is wise.

Zhang Jie had a smile on his face, in the past, everyone would cheer after taking the silver, but now the situation is different.

But he immediately straightened his face and said with a straight face: "Tell the brothers a bad news, this month, it may be the last time the King of Han issued silver, and the court has issued a serious decree that it cannot be issued again, and the King of Han will go to Beijing to report on his work and explain why the silver is issued." ”

"The king of Han will try his best to intercede with the court, and not let everyone withdraw the money they took out."

The scene was suddenly scolded, and the generals scolded the court one after another.

Just when the scene was a little noisy, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "The king went to Jingshi, can he come back?" What if I am victimized by a traitor and detained in Beijing? ”

The surroundings suddenly fell silent, and many people looked at Zhang Jie nervously.

Zhang Jie's face turned red, and he muttered: "King Han didn't commit any major crimes, the court shouldn't be so broken, right?" ”

The voice shouted: "Back then, the imperial court cut the feudal domain and dealt with the vassal kings of all walks of life, so the king had no choice but to raise troops, so I am afraid that now, the imperial court will repeat its old tricks, and first deceive the king and then attack, will it not be in vain to send him to death." ”

The crowd was depressed, and many people couldn't help it.

"The king can't go to Jingshi." Someone shouted.

Then all around shouted, please don't go to Jingshi.

Zhang Jie hurriedly said: "If you don't go to Jingshi, you are not disobeying the holy decree, and it is a capital crime." ”

"Besides, when the king went to Jingshi, he also wanted to be the master of his brothers, and persuade the court not to collect cashiers, otherwise what if the court asked the brothers to withdraw the silver?"

Below was the voice roaring angrily: "Retreat the damn, the silver has been spent, where did the silver come from." ”

That's it, there was a lot of scolding below.

Someone else scolded: "Last month's salary from the imperial court has not been paid yet, if it weren't for the king of Han first, wouldn't our whole family have starved to death." ”

The crowd shouted again.

It is said that the salary that should have been issued by the imperial court last month has not been issued yet, and the news given by the capital division is that the mountain road is not easy to walk, and it is still on the road.

Ni Niang's, everyone is angry when they think of it, the silver of the King of Han can come from the mountain road, but the court can't come?

The scene was full of excitement and human feelings.

In the chaos, someone raised his arms and shouted: "Zhu Di is brutal, slaughtering my Ming people, and not letting us live, it's better to do the opposite." ”

Then another person shouted: "The king is not righteous and the minister goes to another country, the father is not kind to the child, the dog emperor is a cruel bully, we support the king of Han, long live the king of Han." ”

The scene was stunned at first, and then the crowd shouted, continuously: "Support King Han, long live King Han." ”

Zhang Jie was overjoyed, kicked the car next to him over, and rolled out a large amount of silver.

"Brothers, let's take the silver of the King of Han and serve the King of Han, and issue the silver, but the other way around."

"It's the other way around." The scene roared again.

At this time, there must be a lot of calm people in the crowd, who are unwilling to rebel, but there is no way, most of them are crazy and enthusiastic, and soon involve this part of the calm people.

At the same time, Lancangwei, Menghuawei, Dali Wei and other important health centers in Yunnan are repeating this scene everywhere.

And the voice of Long Live the King of Han, like a surging tide, soon swept across the entire land of Yunnan.

The soldiers and horses of the guards in various parts of Yunnan began to gather in three directions.
