Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 313

After the issue of the two volumes in Guangdong was resolved, Chen Yunfu's departure from Guangdong was naturally put on the agenda, but before leaving, Chen Yunfu had a private interview with Xu Jining, the commander of the Guangdong capital.

"How is the situation in Guangzhou Wei?"

The latter is a man of about 37 or [-] years old. He fought with Mu Ying in the Yunnan campaign in his early years, and was promoted to the capital of Guangdong for his meritorious service.

Like Hu Rang, he was a foreign official, but as a soldier, especially a general, Xu Jining had more backbone than Hu Rang. At least, he didn't accept bribes from the four great masters.

Keep the most basic principles and bottom line.

"Returning to the young master, the situation in Guangzhou Wei is not optimistic. From the command envoy to the small banner officer, more than [-]% of the Guangzhou Wei are related to the four major clans, and the remaining [-]%. Having more or less received bribes from the four major clans, it can be said that Guangzhou Wei is almost reduced to the private army of the four major clans.

If it hadn't been for the fact that you came with a large army this time, Young Master, and surrounded Guangzhou Wei, it would be really difficult to control it with only the last general. "

Hearing that Guangzhou Wei's situation was so bad, Chen Yunfu sighed heavily.

"It is necessary to eradicate the risk that the Guangzhou Guard may become a private soldier of the clan. The imperial army will always fight for the imperial court. This is an absolute red line. You should immediately arrange to transfer all the officers of the Guangzhou Guard out of Guangzhou and fill them in Fujian. , Huguang Du Sizhong beats up gangsters."

Xu Jining nodded, and then asked cautiously: "If so, these people are not willing."

"kill!"

Chen Yunfu's eyes suddenly blazed with murderous intent: "Guangzhou Weiman is only a little over 1, and the soldiers at the bottom may not rebel. The rebels are nothing more than the hundreds of generals and officers. One counts as one, and everyone who refuses to obey will be executed!"

Not to mention just generals and officers, even if they wanted to rebel together with the soldiers of the guard, Chen Yunfu would rather kill the entire Guangdong guard through internal friction, than continue to let the status quo be like this.

The army of the imperial court must never be allowed to become the private army of the clan!
Xu Jining cupped his fists and responded loudly.

"Do it, do it tonight. You should go to the commanders of Huguang Dusi and Fujian Dusi now, and discuss with them about the exchange of officers. Remember, it's better not to be slow."

Time was tight and tasks were heavy, Chen Yunfu had to solve Guangzhou Wei's problem before he left Guangzhou, otherwise he would not be able to leave here with confidence.

Xu Jining also understood this, turned around and left in a hurry without further words.

Chen Yunfu then called Yang Shiqi, and told the latter: "Notice, the city of Guangzhou will be on strict alert tonight, [-] Beijing battalion Ruijian will be dispatched out of the city, to Benfu, and the Guangzhou Wei camp will be guarded.

At the same time, another 5000 people will be transferred to patrol the city tonight. During the curfew, anyone who appears on the streets of the city, regardless of their status or reason, as long as they do not have a warrant, they will be arrested and killed immediately! "

Yang Shiqi nodded solemnly, knowing that Chen Yunfu planned to attack Guangzhou Wei tonight, he was worried that someone would jump over the wall in a hurry, and come tonight to cooperate with the outside and fall into the city.

Chen Yunfu ordered Jinkou, and the whole of Guangzhou became busy immediately. The large number of troops mobilized naturally attracted the attention of the four major clans, but this time, Chen Xi and the others did not move, and closed their eyes sadly.

They knew that Chen Yunfu's goal tonight must be to attack Guangzhou Wei.

Decades of hard work and management are destined to be destroyed tonight.

See, what is a paper tiger, this is a paper tiger.

Before you move him, look at him from a distance, and feel that the power of the four major clans is simply too huge, like a towering mountain, and you feel that it is impossible to bring it down.

But when Chen Yunfu really decided to make a move, this high mountain was just a phantom of a mirage, with a light poke, even a splash of water could hardly be shot out.

The dragon crossing the river does not suppress the local snake?

That's because the one who crosses the river is not a dragon at all.

Chen Yunfu is not yet qualified to be called a dragon, and the four major clans that can suppress him can't breathe, you ask the big brother of the real dragon to come and try?
Or, Zhu Yuanzhang!
Lao Zhu's Yiren was three hundred miles away from Guangzhou, and Guangzhou Wei could rush into the city, chop up the four great clans, and present their heads on their knees.

Not even the heart to resist.

There was a slight commotion outside the city, accompanied by sporadic neighing of horses, and occasionally a few crisp sounds of gold and iron. Chen Yunfu stood by the window and waited with his eyes closed.

Soon, footsteps sounded outside the door, and then stood still.

Yang Shiqi folded his fingers and flicked a few times outside, and said in a low voice: "Young Master, General Xu sent a letter, saying that the matter has been completed, and a total of 130 seven people who were disobedient were beheaded. The barracks are currently stable, and there are no mutinous troops. "

"Send the head and hang it outside the yamen, so that everyone in Guangzhou can take a good look."

Chen Yunfu said in a cold voice: "The notice was posted, saying that these people conspired to rebel, according to the law, they should belong to the barbarians, but the imperial court wants the situation in Guangzhou to be stable, so they can't bear to be slaughtered, and let their families come to identify the corpses and bury them."

"Yes."

Overnight, there was a strong smell of blood in the city of Guangzhou. The patriarchs of the four major clans all knew that hundreds of heads were hung outside the chief envoy's yamen, and they knew that this was Chen Yunfu's thunderous trick.

From now on, all the unstable elements in the Guangdong area have been wiped out, and those left behind, I dare not say that they are all obedient citizens of the imperial court, but they will no longer become the source of disaster that will never go away.

Chen Xi and the others only hope that after Chen Yunfu leaves Guangdong and returns to Beijing, he can fulfill his promise and push the court to reopen the Guangzhou Shipping Department.

As for the family members of the deceased, nothing happened after the body was identified. Instead, they expressed their gratitude to the court.

Just like what Chen Yunfu said, the imperial court will let the barbarians go one more time if they want to rebel and rebel.

Prestige is for the clan, and kindness is for ordinary people. Chen Yunfu sorted out these two points very carefully and grasped them very precisely.

"There are more than 400 million people in Guangdong. Once the shipping department resumes the market, within ten years, the wealth of Guangdong can surpass that of the Tang and Song Dynasties. With the stimulation of the Guangzhou Shipping Department, the major coastal ports in Guangdong can be rebuilt. Dockyard, making big ships to go to sea."

After everything was dealt with, Chen Yunfu stayed in Guangdong for another seven or eight days, and waited for Tong Jie, the Zuo Shilang from Jinling, who was now the newly appointed Guangdong Zuobu political envoy.

Hu Rang was dismissed and sent back to his hometown in Huguang. He recovered all the bribes he had received from the four major clans over the years. The Hu family was from the Huguang family and could afford the money.

But that is by no means what atonement silver is.

The reason why Hu Rang is not killed is because if Hu Rang is killed, then the corruption in the way of the Guangdong chief envoy will be uncovered, and all of them will be killed if they are killed.

So many officials are members of the four families. If you kill a family member, do you still expect them to be peaceful with you?

So at the end of the trouble, it returned to the origin that Chen Yunfu didn't want to see the most, which was to kill Guangzhou inside and out.

If that's the case, then why did Chen Yunfu waste so much effort these past few months?

I was tossing around.

Therefore, the dismissal is a large number of dismissals, and the officials added by the imperial court are arriving in Guangdong one after another.

As the new top leader in Guangdong, Tong Jie came the fastest.

Before leaving, Chen Yunfu specifically explained to Tong Jie, pointing out: "Guangzhou Shipbuilding Department will resume the market, and Quanzhou Shipbuilding Department will naturally resume the market. At that time, you must cooperate more with Fujian and build more Fuchuan. Not only can they be used for By sailing far away and doing business, you can also go to sea to exterminate Japanese pirates."

Tong Jie cupped his hands, nodded and said: "The young master has told you the order, and the next official will definitely remember it."

"so be it."

Chen Yunfu stepped on the side of the car, and took one last look at the city of Guangzhou behind him.

It's time for him to go to Guangxi!
