When Zhu Youzhen, Yuan Chonghuan and others fled into Yangzhou City, they were very much looking forward to Hong Chengchou leading the armed support of the Dashi clan in the south of the Yangtze River.

However, there are already new-type warships cruising on the Yangtze River, and it is difficult to transmit information across the river, not to mention that the enemy secretly comes to support.

There are also soldiers and horses guarding Nanjing, although the number is not as large as that of the rebel clan, but they are also not afraid.

The secretary of the Nanjing Military Department is Zhu Xieyuan, the former governor of Sichuan.

He led a limited number of troops and horses to attack, first blocking the enemy in Changzhou so that the enemy could not continue to the west.

When the news of the takedown of King Shin came, a large number of enemies scattered as birds and beasts.

Zhu Xieyuan immediately marched, easily took Wuxi and Suzhou with the support of the fleet, and finally surrounded Hong Chengchou and a few other remnants in the city of Huzhou on the shore of Taihu Lake.

The Huzhou scholars also received the news, and they drew a clear line with Hong Chengchou in time.

These warriors changed their faces faster than chameleons, and immediately took Hong Chengchou and sent him out of the city to Zhu Xieyuan, and provided food and money to comfort Zhu Xieyuan's army.

Hong Chengchou resisted hunger strike at first, showing that he would not cooperate if he wanted to commit suicide, but in prison, he had to shake off the dust on his clothes carefully.

Zhu Xieyuan noticed this detail and saw that Hong Chengchou was not resolute in his heart, but said to him: "It's a good thing that you, a group of scholars from Zhejiang and Nanzhili, are making trouble."

"A good thing?"

"Because the Marquis of Dingyuan is trying to raid the doctors and big landlords who don't support him, the download is justified~ So thank you~"

"What!" Hong Chengchou was annoyed and angry, and in the end, Wang Hongyu would take everything.

Power, land, property...... Even the throne.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and finally he really committed suicide, only to be rescued again and become a vegetative person.

Wang Hongyu was overjoyed to learn the news.

This Hong Chengchou, whether he wants to be Ling Chi or not, it is even better to be a vegetative person.

He personally escorted Xinwang Zhu Youzhen, Yuan Chonghuan, and Hong Chengchou to the north.

Back in the capital, Wang Hongyu and Zhang Weixian organized a public trial meeting, Yuan Chonghuan and Hong Chengchou were executed by Ling Chi, and Zhu Youzhen was first imprisoned in Coal Mountain.

This time, Zhu Youzhen's coup d'état, the Jiangnan Dashi clan and landlords gathered to respond, because the reform of Tianqi and Wang Hongyu violated their interests, and the letter Wang Zhu Youzhan vigorously preached to restore the old way of ruling the world with the Shi clan.

They saw an opportunity to turn the sky upside down, and as soon as Hong Chengchou encouraged them, they took active action to prepare to go north to King Qin.

Wang Hongyu was ruthless this time, and launched a large-scale raid in the south of the Yangtze River, and all the Dashi clans, big landlords, and big businessmen who participated in the rebellion directly raided their homes.

Thirty percent of the results of the seizure were put into the state treasury, thirty percent were used for the construction of new military cantonments, and three percent were given to tenants, hired laborers, craftsmen, slaves and maids exploited by them.

For the land and property of those neutral Dashi clans, big landlords, and big businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River, a policy of peaceful redemption was adopted, and it was precisely the money that was copied from the family that was redeemed and purchased.

The cooperative gentry and large landlords were given the status of trading companies and officials, and those who did not cooperate were directly confiscated.

There are also those who support Tianqi and Dingyuan Marquis, and oppose Zhu Youzhen, keep their property and give honorary rewards.

In the Jiangnan reshuffle, one-third of the land was owned by progressive clans and landlords, one-third was owned by collectives, and one-third was owned by tenants and hired workers.

This time, he directly obtained a large amount of land, 30 million taels of silver, and was supported by a large number of skilled and skilled laborers.

Previously, Southwest, South China, and North Zhili had begun, and this time Jiangnan, which was the best in all aspects, finally caught up.

The real revitalization began.

Wang Hongyu no longer held back his hands and feet, and the lesson of blood made him change his original strategy of gradually carrying out reforms, and this time he had to carry out reforms in a big way.

After dealing with the death and injury of the people killed and injured in the civil war in the capital, a purge was carried out against the officials and scholars who participated in the coup, and the coup officials, the immediate family members of the scholars, the captured rebels, and the rebels who participated in the rebellion in Beijing were all beheaded at the site of Wanggongchang.

All the participants' family property was confiscated and used to compensate the citizens who died

With soldiers and generals, the imperial court funded the repair of damaged houses, and rebuilt the seriously damaged and collapsed houses.

Streets and public facilities were rebuilt, and all ordnance workshops were relocated to remote suburbs.

After dealing with it, Meng Biao and Wei Liangqing privately asked whether the country could not be without a monarch for a day, and whether they would directly call the emperor a new dynasty.

Emperor?

Of course Wang Hongyu thought about it, but he is only less than 35 years old, so why not accumulate some strength?

The country cannot be left without an owner for a day, and after dealing with the funeral of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, an auspicious day was chosen for Zhu Cijiong's enthronement ceremony.

The national funeral of the Emperor of the Apocalypse was grand, and he took the beautiful name Xiang, which was for Ming Xiangzong. In this way, it is not the general name of Ming Xizong in his history.

The crown prince Zhu Cijiong succeeded to the throne with the year name Xingfu.

Zhu Cijiong was only seven years old, and for the sake of the stability of the current situation and for the sake of actual power, the hundred officials decided to supervise Wang Hongyu after deliberation.

Wang Hongyu pushed twice, and the third time he asked the British public Zhang Weixian to supervise the country together.

The result was, of course, a great joy for all.

Wang Hongyu and Zhang Weixian served as supervisors.

The Ming Dynasty ushered in the era of martial arts and superintendents.

Some big landlords scolded Wang Hongyu behind his back for wanting to be Wang Mang, Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao, and Sima Yi.

Wang Hongyu didn't care about these, focused on making great efforts, and sincerely cooperated with Zhu Cijiong and Zhang Weixian, continuing the drawings and inventions preserved by the Apocalypse, and letting Zhang Weixian lead the reshuffle of the imperial court first.

A large number of Donglin Party and Southeast Shi clan were cleared out of the imperial court, but all officials who participated in the party were demoted to two levels regardless of their positions, and some rookies without party affiliation entered the political circles.

The imperial court officially ordered a reform of the imperial examination system, increasing the assessment of situation analysis and science and technology, which was initially very low, and many avoided a strong backlash.

Serving the first imperial examination, accounting for 5%, the second imperial examination 10%, and progressing to 30% year by year, in order to select outstanding talents who can keep up with the times.

In the construction of the military camp, the encyclopedia examination system was implemented, and the academy of sciences was established. Implement the education system of primary, junior high, high school, university and graduate school. After graduating from junior high school, you can also apply for vocational high school, junior high school graduates can directly apply for technical schools and technical secondary schools, and high school graduates can apply for junior college and university.

In Tuntian, which is under his command, a five-year compulsory education system is implemented, a scholarship system is implemented, and poor students are subsidized by the Dingyuanhou Fund. In the future, they will either belong to themselves, or go to Daming Prefecture to take up a job, this kindness has always been there, and it will be a rising resource for the future.

Then his focus was still on foreign conquest and development.

At present, the Liaodong army has gone and withdrawn, and in a blink of an eye, it has reached late autumn and winter, which is not suitable for conquest.

Wang Hongyu ordered Sun Chengzong, Zhang Shenwu, Xiong Tingbi, and Yan Siqi to start defense, and dozens of people fought in small battles to suppress the reconnaissance of Huang Taiji and Yin Da Zhengzong, but strictly put an end to wave warfare.

Wang Hongyu knew that he was already in charge of the country, so he had to be more stable and not fight easily. Once the army makes a mistake, there will inevitably be political risks.

Then, the focus will be on strengthening infrastructure construction and the dispatch of troops and horses in the western region.

Restore government institutions in the northwest and deter Mughal expansionist ambitions.

For the next five years.

It was suppressed against Huang Taiji and Yin Da Masamune, not a large army.

With the economic blockade, the power of the other side is getting worse and worse.

Many results have been achieved in the Northwest.

Sun Chuanting infiltrated the Hetao step by step, occupied one area and consolidated another, implemented the military household system, cultivated and grazing and limited development, and governed small watersheds. Maintain less soil erosion, introduce cold-resistant and sand-resistant grass and trees, encourage the planting of pasture grass, implement a livestock captive system, plant trees, introduce drought-resistant tree species, and protect vegetation.

Sun Chuanting first subdued the Hetao, which solved the grain problem, but limited the amount of cultivated land and intermittent cultivation, mainly in Juntun.

Raise war horses, introduce war horse breeds, organize agricultural and pastoral armies, and combine agriculture and animal husbandry.

Expelled large herds of Mongolian ethnic groups to graze and protect small tribal herders.

Then recruit and Shute Mongolia, and implement the planting of pasture grass for Shute Mongolia, the implementation of captive breeding, restoration of pastures, and the implementation of underground

Courtyard settlement. A few years later, the grassland returned to the scene of cattle and sheep in the wind-blown grassland.

The Shuote Mongols gradually settled down, learned to grow grass and raise livestock in captivity, and also began to look for charcoal to burn for warmth, and in a few decades it was sinicized.

Sun Chuanting stabilized the vast area east of the Hetao to the desert of Turpan, and groups of aspiring young people rushed from Yunyang to the northwest prairie, and the administrative area of the Ming Dynasty advanced to the northwest year by year.

The Shute Mongols already claimed to be part of the Ming Dynasty, and they learned a lot of survival skills from the Han Chinese, and now many of them are fluent in Chinese, and Chinese characters are used by them.

The iron products, cloth, and salt of the Ming Dynasty were continuously transported to the northwest by merchants, and a large number of furs of the Shuote Mongols entered the Central Plains, the Silk Road was reopened, and the economy of the Northwest and Shuote Mongolia developed rapidly, and now the northwest is rich again.

Sun Chuanting gradually gained a foothold in the Western Regions, and through several years of hard work, the Western Regions returned to the embrace of China. Now Sun Chuanting has formed a multi-clan strong army of more than 10,000 cavalry.

Then he gradually defeated the unrisprudging Jungar, as well as other nomadic peoples in the north, who had encroached on a large amount of land in the Western Regions of China in their previous lives.

The Confucian general Wang Sanshan, who was close to ancient times, had been training infantry cavalry on the western Sichuan plateau since he assisted Wang Hongyu in quelling the An Bangyan Rebellion, and after more than ten years of training, he finally trained a strong army that could adapt to the plateau marching and fighting.

A few years ago, the brothers of Uszang and Qinghai had a war because of the inheritance, and their strength was greatly reduced. Wang Sanshan took the opportunity to enter the Wusizang Capital Division and gradually took actual control of the Wusizang.

Now Wu Sizang has no strength to protect himself, and after being controlled by Wang Sanshan, he took the initiative to propose the original Ming Tusi, and the era accepted the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

Shikoku Island was also completely stabilized, and Yan Siqi also surpassed Shimazu and Mori to become the strongest actual controller in Kansai, and a large amount of silver was developed.

Hundreds of thousands of people have migrated to the west coast of North America, and there have been trading stations and colonies throughout the Mississippi River basin, and the east coast has been discovered to the east.

Now the people are encouraging the scholars to immigrate to North America, and the Ming Dynasty gives military support, and provides military ships and merchant ships to escort, and in North America they can occupy territories according to the treatment of the Ming Tusi.
