I am the king of the dead

The army of the Ming Dynasty went all the way from the land to the south to suppress the rebellion, from Ningbo Shipsi to Yuegang Shipsi on the sea, and then to Guangzhou Shipsi.

The two armies marched hand in hand and besieged the city of Guangzhou.

Liu Pu had already received the emperor's memorial, and His Majesty's memorial was very simple, if he rebelled, he rebelled. After all, if he really dared to communicate with the Jiaozhi Li Dynasty about the family affairs, his wife and children would be caught, and he would definitely not survive.

Is the emperor a threat?Liu Pu doesn't think so.

He only knew that His Majesty said that he could rebel, but he had to pay taxes.The emperor of the Ming Dynasty always spit on nails, and he always counted on his words!

His Majesty seldom harmed his family. Since His Majesty issued a decree that he was not allowed to pass through the Li Dynasty, seeing that Nanjing had already been defeated, when he was hesitating whether to pass through the Li Dynasty, the army had already arrived at the city.

Liu Pu kept doing two things, stomped his feet and closed his eyes, took a few trusted wives and children with him, and went out of the city in the dark, heading towards the Li Dynasty, and disappeared into the night.

Liu Pu left in a hurry, without any money, not even his favorite concubine and concubine, and left in a hurry.

In this Canton Mansion, the leaders of the rebellion and the commander-in-chief all deserted the army, and this Canton Mansion immediately surrendered.

On the last day of the third year of Jingtai, the report of the great victory of the Marquis of Ningyang spread to the city of Nanjing.

"Once again, it has been proved that the Ming Dynasty has no room for merchants to rebel. The only people who can rebel are the people who can't survive and the princes who want to fight for power." Zhu Qiyu looked at Ningyanghou's memorial and was elated towards Xing'an Said.

Xing'an bowed his head and said: "I congratulate Your Majesty, I congratulate Daming!"

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "Exile Liu Pu's family to the smoky land. Since Liu Pu didn't know the Li Dynasty, I will do what I say."

"After the beginning of spring, go straight to Huguang!"

The cold wave hovering over the entire southern Zhili and Zhejiang provinces slowly subsided amidst the sound of firecrackers welcoming the new year, and the weather became a little warmer.

In the fourth year of Jingtai, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Zhu Qiyu led the officials of Nanya to worship Xiaoling.

Zhu Qiyu fought two battles with Shiyao and merchants without gunpowder, and after much tossing and tossing, the trees in Zijin Mountain were finally saved.

The emperor of the Ming Dynasty had a bright face, and so did the ministers of the Ming Dynasty. Everyone was a filial son and loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, and they did not dig the tree on the mausoleum of Emperor Taizu Gao.

Even when Jiannu arrived in Nanjing, he didn't dare to go to Xiaoling to misbehave. Although he didn't repair it, he didn't dare to destroy it.

If Zhu Qiyu really cut down the trees on the Xiaoling mausoleum to the living people, Zhu Yuanzhang might not be angry, and Anmin had no choice but to act.

But Zhu Qiyu, as the emperor of Zhu Ming, could only hold up the butcher knife in his hand, and the blood flowed into rivers in the south of the Yangtze River!Killed millions of corpses in the Yangtze River!

But fortunately, Zhu Qiyu, who is the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, still managed to save the trees in Xiaoling, his own face, and the face of his ministers and workers. Achieved.

Tianming Festival is another gift that Zhu Qiyu brought to Nanzhili.

The Tianming Festival was born out of the Shengshou Festival, choosing the day when Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne and proclaiming himself emperor, and the whole world celebrates Tianming together.

Zhu Qiyu chose Dayue.

The grand parade of the Siwu Regiment Battalion was arranged in the outer city from inside the Jinchuan Gate to outside the North Drum Tower. This was originally a military camp, Zhu Qiyu didn't ask anyone to set up a card, and all the people could watch the ceremony.

Zhu Qiyu also specifically asked Li Xian to invite almost all the merchant heads and clan patriarchs in Nanzhili and Zhejiang to watch the ceremony together.

His intention was obvious, to intimidate them.

After the grand parade was over, Zhu Qiyu specially sent the army under the Xiaoling Mausoleum outside Chaoyang Gate, and the army patrolled for a week, with flags and flags unfurled, so that Emperor Gao could also see the strength of Daming's current Beijing camp.

Fifty-six out of ten armored, the bird gun has been changed.

Finally, after all the sergeants raised their guns and fired empty guns at the sky, the parade ended.

After the lively Lantern Festival on the Shangyuan Festival, Zhu Qiyu held Jingtai's first court meeting in four years.

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "At present, Jiangxi and Guangdong have all been pacified, so now the only thing left is the Huguang land south of the Yangtze River, which has not yet been pacified."

"The commander-in-chief of Sichuan, leading the Sichuan cavalry wolf soldiers, has gone to Jingzhou Prefecture to join forces with the Siyong Regiment Battalion. The Duke of Guizhou has rectified military affairs and can attack Guizhou from Yunnan at any time."

"I didn't let Qian Guogong attack Guizhou, nor did I let Ningyang Marquis Chen Mao go north, the four brave regiment battalion, the military affairs admiral in Sichuan, Jiang Lin, the censor Jiang Lin, the capital of Youqin, and Fang Ying, the commander-in-chief of Sichuan, are enough. "

"The question now is, how to govern?"

Yu Qian took a deep breath and said: "Your Majesty, Yungui Lake is in serious trouble like the Miao Man. No one dares to enter the land occupied by Tumu. No one dares to cultivate Guizhou, Bozhou, and Yuyu for more than a thousand miles. The chieftain and Miao Man are rampant. Local officials push each other, and governance is not easy to deepen. If there is nothing to do, it will be close to the heart, and if there is something to go to foreign countries, from Yuan to Ming, it will be the frontier harm."

No one dares to cultivate acres of fertile land for thousands of miles.

This is the current situation on the ground in Huguang, south of the Yangtze River.

Li Xian was flipping through the memorabilia in his hand, he knew that what he was going to discuss this time was the major issue of countering the rebellion, since he was an official in the imperial court, he naturally understood the situation better.

After Yu Qian finished speaking, Li Xian bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, there is one thing that I think is worthy of vigilance."

"In the land of Yunnan, Guizhou and Huguang, not only the chieftains are in trouble, but the ministers are officials in the imperial court. The Shuidong Song family, the Bozhou Yang family, the Shui'an family, and the Sizhou Tian family are the most prominent."

"For example, the Song family in Shuidong, canonized since the Tang Dynasty, and respected by the Song Ding in the Tang Dynasty, even the former Yuan Dynasty and the Taizu of our dynasty could not rule it."

"Guizhou Xuanwei Division, the An family has been the Xuanwei envoy for generations, and the Song family has been the Xuanwei Tongzhi for generations."

"Bozhou Propaganda Division, Yang's envoy, Sizhou Propaganda Division and Sinan Propaganda Division are under the control of Tian."

"In the 11th year of orthodoxy, Guizhou Xuanwei Tongzhi Song Ran was greedy for adultery, which caused a civil uprising, and the Dayang Farm was breached. Song Ran died, but the Song family still guards the world for generations , extremely impressive."

"I think that the chieftains in Guizhou and the Huguang area south of the Yangtze River are one evil, and these generations of powerful families are another evil. It is their domineering that makes the imperial government's policies difficult to understand and governance difficult to deepen."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, very satisfied with Li Xian's supplement, and Yuan Bin was a little further away from his reward card.

Li Xian has become a gravedigger of powerful merchants, and it is almost impossible for Yuan Bin to exchange his head for a brand.

There are two kinds of people in this world, one is smart and the other is stupid.

Obviously Li Xian is a smart person, at least Li Xian knows to wait until the sun goes down, but Zhu Qiyu is 20 years younger than Li Xian.

It depends on who gets killed.

The Yang family of Bozhou brazenly rebelled against the Ming Dynasty during the Wanli period. The Battle of Bozhou, one of the three major campaigns in Wanli, was attacked by the Yang family who had lived in Bozhou for generations.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Yang Duan defeated Mu Xingtian of Nanzhao, and was canonized in Bozhou by the Tang Dynasty. He lived in Bozhou for generations, and his roots were deeply rooted. He went through the Song Dynasty, Yuan Dynasty, and Ming Dynasty, and served for 29 generations.

Fengyang Zhu?upstart!

The old Yang's family is the Tu Emperor who was sealed in Bozhou at the end of the Tang Dynasty, and is the owner of the Tu Banner!

How much money do you need to beat Lao Yang's family?

During the Wanli period, the Battle of Bozhou lasted 110 days. With the strength of eight provinces including Sichuan, Guizhou, and Huguang, the Ming Dynasty dispatched more than 17 officers and soldiers, [-] militiamen, and consumed more than two million taels of silver. rebellion.

This is just a Bozhou Yang, and there are Shuidong Song, Shuixi'an, and Sizhoutian, all of which are not good friends.

Zhu Qiyu wanted to completely pacify the Huguang area south of the Yangtze River, and to achieve military and political victories was even more difficult.

At least one million taels of silver, millions of meters of grain, and mobilizing manpower and material resources are needed to eradicate all the Yang families in Bozhou.

But is it okay not to call?It doesn't work either.

Everyone rebelled, if you don't beat him up, the other chieftains will immediately follow suit when they see it.

Not only to fight, but to win.

Yu Qian looked at the map in his hand, and said helplessly: "Huguang is not barren. If it is cultivated properly, it will be easy to harvest three times a year, but this fertile land has been disturbed, and the people and seedlings have to escape. Go into the mountains, eat and sleep in the open, and reclaim wasteland for a living."

"In the Yuan Dynasty, there was a Xuanwei Department under the province to manage military and civil affairs, and there was a chief court department. It was the Yuan Dynasty, an extreme border land, to control sharp weapons. After examining various historical facts, a barbarian official was set up in the Yuan Dynasty, which should be the head of the chieftain. beginning."

"However, times have changed, and the Xuanweisi and chieftain systems are no longer sufficient for the herdsmen in Antu, Your Majesty."

The chieftain system originated in the Yuan Dynasty and prevailed in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

In the early days, it did promote the development of the Shaobian area, but in the Jingtai period, it was obvious that Huguang and Guizhou still implemented the chieftain system, which had become a hindrance to the imperial decrees being issued to the prefectures and counties.

The problems in Huguang, Guizhou and other places seem to be quite difficult, and there seems to be no good solution.

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "When I left the capital, Hu Shangshu talked with me about Guizhou, and talked about Emperor Taizong Wen's regrets."

Before Zhu Qiyu's personal conquest, Hu Wei, as Minister of Rites, discussed politics with His Majesty, and discussed several issues about how to govern Nanzhili and Huguang areas.

For example, the splitting of Nanzhili was a great regret for Emperor Taizong Wen.

The big fire in the spring of Yongle 19 years caused Zhu Di to be devastated. It was a big plan and a tax exemption. In the end, he could only use force to stop the mouths of the courtiers. Zhu Di knew the harm of the wind from Nanzhili. In the holidays, it was not resolved in the end.

For example, the Yongle regret that Zhu Qiyu is talking about now.

Yu Qian was full of doubts and said, "What is Hu Shangshu's opinion?"

Zhu Qiyu said very solemnly: "In the 11th year of Yongle, at the beginning of March, Emperor Taizong Wen abolished the Sizhou and Sinan Xuanwei Divisions in Tongren and other places, and established the Three Guizhou Divisions to stabilize the place."

"At that time, Tian Chen and Tian Zongding divided Sizhou and Sinan, and Emperor Wen ordered the two to divide the rule, wanting to secure the natives. Tian Chen was rebellious, fanned the Pangzhou, launched a war, slaughtered the good, and resisted the order of the court. , Emperor Wen issued an edict to punish the crime."

"This Tian Zongding is particularly fierce and destructive of ethics. He brazenly rebelled and rebelled. Emperor Wen said: This crime cannot be forgiven."

"Sizhou and Sinan 39 long lawsuits, that is, chieftains, added more Fusui, and began to set up prefectures and counties, and established the chief administrative department."

"Originally, chief chieftains and chief officials were set up, and they dispatched high taxes. They learned what they should do. In the end, Sizhou and other places set up the third department of Guizhou, and set up the four prefectures of Xinhua, Liping, Shiqian, and Sizhou." (Volume 137 of Ming Taizong Records )

"At that time, Emperor Taizongwen ordered Hu Shangshu to play the right role, and declared the administration of Weisi, Tusi, and Changjusi.

"Oh, by the way, that year, Chen Xun, our cabinet's first assistant university scholar, just won the first prize, and he won the first place in the new department."

At that time, Hu Wei had been an official for 13 years and had already become the left servant of the Ministry of Rites.

The paste-up craftsmen of Ming Dynasty are always pasting up, not only to give face to themselves, to all officials in the world, but also to offer advice and suggestions to His Majesty.

The history is so good, as long as you want to solve it, you can always find a way to solve it.

Yu Qian, Li Xian and others were silent. Although Hu Wei was not in Nanya, he was everywhere.

Zhu Qiyu said very seriously: "Emperor Taizong Wen set up the three divisions in Guizhou, but one of them is that the officials who originally set up the chieftain's lawsuit, that is, the chieftain, dispatch and pay taxes, are still the things that should be done."

"It is so-called that the world has its own land, the world governs its people, the world rules its soldiers, the world inherits its positions, the world governs its place, the world enters its stream, and the world receives its title."

"It is impossible to issue orders from the imperial court to the third division and the magistrate's yamen."

"All of them are local emperors from Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guizhou!"

Can an emperor tolerate thousands of local emperors on his land?

That can't be done!

He holds the military power in one hand, the righteousness in the other hand, and the financial affairs in the other hand. He has three prongs. If they are allowed to continue to be so rampant, then wouldn't Zhu Qiyu be the emperor on his knees?

When Zhu Qiyu said this, he set the tone for this matter.

How to eliminate these chieftains and chieftains who are hereditary and dynasties will not affect the power for generations.

Li Xian Zhensheng said: "My minister thinks that after the pacification, Guizhou, Huguang Xuanweisi, and the chief lawsuit will all be abolished, and three divisions will be established, with the actual jurisdiction of prefectures and counties. Tufu. Then Tuxian, Tuzhou."

"The second is to seize all favorable opportunities. For example, if the chieftains have no heirs and no successors, if the clans fight, if the chieftains kill each other, if the chieftains violate the laws of the Ming Dynasty, they will be dismissed for their crimes, and all the officials will be filled."

The hereditary in the Ming Dynasty is called Shi, and the non-hereditary in the Ming Dynasty is called Liu.

For example, after the Marquis of Wuqing won the land of Hetao, he got the world certificate, and he was called the Spyker. If he didn't get the world certificate, he was called Liujue.

That is, from a wage earner in Daming to a partner in Daming.

Although in the Hongwu period, the world certificate was more like a life-saving talisman, but after Yongle confirmed the power, the world certificate was indeed a life-saving talisman, and many hereditary titles were replaced until the end of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Xian's words mean that the Xuanweisi was abolished at the top, and officials were set up at the bottom, and the two-pronged approach was used to manage the chieftains in Guizhou, Huguang and other places, and finally changed them from a prison to a place where government orders are accessible.

Translation Translation is to change the land and return to the stream.

Once this approach is feasible, then the Xuanwei Division in Mengyang, Myanmar, Babaidadian, Laos, Dagula, Dimasa and other places in the land of Luchuan can follow the rules and continue to advance, and completely incorporate them into the Ming Dynasty. territory!

Zhu Qiyu said very confidently: "In war, any beautiful idea based on benevolence is wrong. Even if it is a broken house, we have to kick it before it collapses. Only when it collapses can it be rebuilt."

"Military victory can ensure that they will lose their will to resist. How to make them obey the Ming court is the category of political victory."

"Li Xian's words are very good. I think it is good. It can be used in the land of Jiuxi and eighteen caves, and it can be used as a herd for the people of Xixidong in the Southwest."

Jiuxi Shibadong is another name for the chieftains of Guizhou and Huguang generations.

This method is feasible, and Emperor Taizongwen's regret will be carried on by his successors.

Yu Qian said with a puzzled expression: "Your Majesty, the officials of the local chieftains, who have been in charge of the barbarian people for generations, are in essence private rights occupying the whole population, and then occupying social labor, squeezing the surplus value, and finally conflicts between private rights and public rights. Typical?"

Li Xian was sluggish, but he figured out his strange problems.

But in terms of practicality, Yu Shaobao still understands by analogy, and is more familiar with the system of the country!

Hit the nail on the head.

Chapter 372

"What the chieftains rely on is that they control the natives. If the natives' problem can be solved, the chieftain's problem can be completely solved." Yu Qian thought about this issue from a different angle.

"Even they will take the initiative to ask exile officials to rule the country."

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said, "This is a good idea, I think it's good."

"I have a lot of land deeds in my hand, and I can use these land deeds to replace and purchase. The army organizes the people to reclaim wasteland and attracts the people to go down the mountain, just like in Jining Mansion and Hetao."
