Chapter 257 East Factory has eyeliner and responds in a timely manner
"I dare not be sure of this in the report, but no matter what, this matter should not be underestimated. Therefore, I would like to ask Your Majesty for the Holy Tribunal!"
Fang Congzhe replied carefully.
Zhu Youxiao ordered his head.
At this time, Fang Congzhe continued: "However, your majesty, please rest assured that even if Zhou Yuji rebelled, I would like to forgive him for not causing great turmoil. Shandong Governor Xu Keqiu, Zhejiang Governor Xu Ruke, Huguang Governor Cai Fuyi, Jiangxi Governor Min Hongxue, and Wang Sanshan, who was newly transferred to Fujian as governor, are all good ministers who can be used to know military affairs. What's more, Su Song and his majesty's chosen Southeast Governor Zhang Tongchang and Su Song Governor Sun Chengzong were in charge. Even Xiao Jingao has always been a knowledgeable person. Since he has reported Zhou Yuji's rebellion, he should have a solution to it! In addition, Nanjing Minister of War Li Changgeng has also experienced military affairs and is calm in his work, so he will not let Nandu have any trouble easily."
The governors of all provinces were recommended by Fang Congzhe, and Fang Congzhe was also worried that the gentry in Jiangnan would rebel, so he had already made preparations before that. In addition to the emperor's special example, the governors recommended were relatively capable and capable of leading troops.
But Fang Congzhe knew that Zhou Yuji was the emperor, and although Xiao Jingao was a civil servant, Zhou Yuji might not be trusted by the emperor, so he did not dare to take sides easily.
Fang Congzhe continued, therefore, "But what needs to be clarified now is whether Zhou Yuji rebelled and whether the words of the governor Xiao Jingao are true."
Zhu Youxiao knew that Fang Congzhe was playing Tai Chi, but he did not expose it, and only released Xiao Jingao's memorial: "If you say that Zhou Yuji would rebel, then I will have no credible people in the Ming Dynasty!"
As he said that, Zhu Youxiao ordered Liu Ruoyu: "Go and pass on Wei Zhongxian!"
Soon, Wei Zhongxian rushed to the liexi supervisor: "Please give me instructions."
"Can there be important news from the south?"
Zhu Youxiao asked, and heard the sound of horse hooves galloping outside.
"Urgent report! Liang Heng, the Anti-Corruption Department of the East Factory, urgent report, Governor Xiao Jingao, together with Xu Shaoliang, Huang Zunyi and others to rebel!"
"Urgent report! Zhejiang Governor Xu Ruke reported that there was a Huang clan in Yuyao that has caused rebellion and has now captured Yuyao, Ningbo, and Dinghai Zhucheng! The rest of the troops attacked Hangzhou and have been repelled by the military and civilians!"
Two military newspapers were delivered at the same time.
Fang Congzhe's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but think that it was a blessing that he didn't blindly stand on the side of civil servant Xiao Jingao. Now it seems that Xiao Jingao really wants to rebel, otherwise, there would be no rebellion in Zhejiang. After all, Zhou Yuji is from the northerner and has no strength in the south.
"It's just why Xiao Jingao rebelled? Even if he is a governor, how can he shake the foundation of the world even if he is a superior governor!"
Fang Congzhe thought deeply, and then he felt that this matter might be related to His Majesty the Emperor's rule was too harsh, and it might be that he really forced some civil servants and gentry into anger.
"Your Majesty, from my opinion, it seems that Xiao Jingao has no doubts about it. Otherwise, Zhejiang would not have initiated the matter at the same time, because Xiao Jingao is from Zhejiang."
Xiong Tingbi pointed it out at this time.
Zhu Youxiao pointed out: "After all, it's Xiong Aiqing, you can see through it. Xiao Jingao is not honest! But how could he rebel?"
Zhu Youxiao said that and looked at Fang Congzhe.
Fang Congzhe hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I guess you can only ask yourself about this kind of thing."
"Okay! Then I will ask him, and the order will be changed in the southeast, Xiaoling is unstable, and the south is not calm. I will decide to personally fight the southeast to quell the rebellion. The chief assistant Fang Congzhe and the eunuch Liu Ruoyu, the eunuch of the Sili Supervisor, remained at the capital, and remained at the capital with all the ministers and officials, involved in military affairs, food affairs, disasters and other major matters, and report them in advance! The assistant Han Du, the Grand Secretary Xiong Tingbi, and the eunuch of the Sili Supervisor, Wei Zhongxian, followed the entourage of the East Factory!"
As Zhu Youxiao said, he said to Xiong Tingbi: "Xiong Aiqing, immediately ordered the Governor's Office of the Five Army, immediately set up a military affairs discussion, and dispatched the Nine-Border Army to the capital to go south with my guard town to suppress the rebellion. I want to suppress the southeast!"
The Kinggu Town of Zhu Youxiao now has two main infantry battalions, plus a well-trained cavalry battalion, and the tutors directly under the Kinggu Town Military and Law Department, a total of 10,000 people have reached 10,000 people, and their strength has far exceeded the situation when they were first founded more than two years ago.
It can be said that Zhu Youxiao is now the military town with the most powerful servants in the empire, that is, the largest military town.
Because other senior military officers such as generals were restricted by the imperial court, their subordinates were at most 3,000.
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao's back has become stronger.
Originally, he had already thought of going south to completely rectify his wealth because of the expansion of the Jinwei Town to 10,000 people. Now Xiao Jin and his high rebellion gave him an excuse.
I finally have a chance to go to Jiangnan.
This time, Zhu Youxiao no longer wanted to let Jiangnan control himself in the hands of the gentry of Jiangnan.
He spent so much effort to set up a martial arts lecture hall, trained the children of Yulinwei, and asked Lu Jiude and others to build a social school in Huangzhuang and build a literacy class. He also asked Bi Ziyan to spend so much money to build a new Tianjin city, just to allow refugees to form households, make them grateful to the emperor's kindness, and educate them, in order to what he wanted, so that now, he could have enough talent reserves and change the foundation of the clan-like rule.
The first thing he wanted to change was naturally Jiangnan. Because Jiangnan was the richest, he needed to spend most of Jiangnan's wealth on the progress of the empire, rather than becoming the capital for the gentry of Jiangnan to enjoy and degenerate himself.
The border troops were transferred south to win over northern military landlords.
Because Zhu Youxiao’s biggest concern about going south was that he couldn’t suppress the gentry of Jiangnan. He was more than enough to deal with Jiangnan, who had only cosmetics and no masculinity.
What Zhu Youxiao was most worried about was that after he went south, the northern border troops would be dishonest.
After all, if the emperor, as a king, had not been in the north, it is doubtful whether these border troops would seriously kill the enemy.
Zhu Youxiao naturally had to transfer some border troops south, use the guards to check and balance, and use money to win over them.
In addition, Zhu Youxiao also planned to transfer war-going troops from the south to stay in other important places such as the capital to check and balance the remaining northern border troops.
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao continued to order: "When Wang was appointed as the three-sided commander of Ji Liao, Xuanda and Yansui in Jin, Qin Liangyu was appointed as the three-sided commander of Ji Liao, Yansui and Xuanda, and led 6,000 white-rod troops to Jizhou, and the two of them worked together to defend the three-sided borders."
"I obey the order!"
Xiong Tingbi replied, and he naturally understood the profound meaning of Emperor Zhu Youxiao, and what he needed to consider now was which border troops he needed to draw to follow the emperor to go south.
"The Dong family of Xuanfu, the Ma family of Datong, the Ma family of Ningxia, the You family of Yulin, and the Du family of Du, each of these generals and quarrels to check and balance each other! In this way, it is fair and just, and it is not worthy of others, and it is not biased. In this way, your Majesty can only make it easy after he goes to the south."
Xiong Tingbi quickly got an idea.
...
Three months later, the troops and horses that were going south to fight the rebellion with Zhu Youxiao have basically been mobilized.
Zhu Youxiao also finalized the time for the personal expedition.
The important officials in the court tacitly did not stop him. After all, now everyone knows that at this time, he will only lose his head.
Chapter completed!
