Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 492 The Exiled King

"However, the number of conventional troops is so small, and only a strong army that can win more with less can frighten the Quartet. It's not that the previous court didn't want to do this, but it was powerless." Nong Shaozhou said.

"I think it's necessary for me to go to Fuzhou to meet the 3000 Mo family exiled here. They have a large number, and I don't know if there will be troubles. And after meeting them, I can better report to my superiors." The Mo family in Fuzhou was very interested.

Fuzhou is the territory of the Shen family, the chieftain of Yunnan. The relationship between the Shen family and the Nong family has become stagnant due to years of competition for territory.

After Nong Shaozhou brought Chen Yu, Zhang Fu and other people sent by the Kyushu Army, and hundreds of people from Guangnan Prefecture to Fuzhou, they were looked at with hostility by the people of Fuzhou.

"I'm here to see Shen Mingtong, take me to see them quickly!" Nong Shaozhou also had prejudice against the Shen family, and his tone was not polite at all.

They entered Fuzhou under the surveillance of Fuzhou chieftain soldiers. Along the way, they could see people dressed differently from the local ethnic groups. These people sat in groups on the ground and spoke a completely different language from Chinese and Zhuang. .

Some alien races were dejected and lying on the ground decadently,
"These are the people from the Mo family who came in exile, right? There are so many people." Nong Shaozhou saw that there were faces of foreigners in Fuzhou, almost as many as the local people in Fuzhou.

"Isn't that right! We have only a thousand households in Fuzhou, and we have to take in three thousand refugees at a time, and we will soon run out of food. Our chieftain is suffering from a headache. If they are forced to evict them, I'm afraid they will start a riot .” The chieftain of Fuzhou complained dissatisfiedly.

"The inability of the Mo family to resist the Zheng family is their own business, but now they come to our territory to eat and drink, and even seek protection from us. Do you really think we are good people?" Zhang Fu, a small officer of the Kyushu Army, was dissatisfied. grumble.

In the five-year history of the Kyushu Army, there has never been such a charitable thing!Hundreds of millions of people inside and outside the pass have not been fully fed, and millions of people have died due to wars in the past few years. People from An Nanguo come as soon as they say, will you give them face?

"This is the attitude of the imperial court all the time. Once a habit is formed, it is difficult to change. In the past, the imperial court used a strategy of checks and balances, and did not want a unified Annan Kingdom to appear. If one of the forces of Annan Kingdom becomes stronger, the imperial court will We will let the local officials of the Chief Secretary of Yunnan and Guangxi support the defeated party to check and balance the powerful forces. This kind of thing is not once or twice. It has been like this for 200 years. In the process of our dealings with An Nanguo, I also get to know them better." Nong Shaozhou said helplessly.

"When we were strong in China, we could still manipulate the power of An Nanguo to make them check and balance each other. But once we fell into war internally, we would lose control of Annan Guo. This kind of check and balance cannot last long. When necessary, we should think The solution is once and for all." Chen Yu's eyes showed a fierce gleam.

The people of the Mo family who were in exile in Fuzhou also noticed this new group of people in Fuzhou.The costumes worn by Chen Yu, Zhang Fu and dozens of regular soldiers of the Kyushu Army were incompatible with the local people, and they were conspicuously watched by the crowd.

"This group of people came in exile from Zhen'an Prefecture. It is obvious that the chieftain of Zhen'an Prefecture is unwilling to take them in. Shen Mingtong is weak and doesn't know how to drive them away. It's all right now, three thousand mouths, I see what your Shen family will do Feed them enough." Nong Shaozhou couldn't help gloating.

They came to the Shen family's mansion.The mansion here is a bit like the government office in the Central Plains, but it occupies a rather large area. It is more like the earth king here, with extensive power.

"Nong Shaozhou, you brat, how dare you blatantly slander this old man." A chieftain who was also dressed in silk came out of the Shen family's mansion, and it was very expensive for it.He was accompanied by a few foreigners with the face of An Nanguo.

"So what if you slander you? Let's see how you can feed the extra 3000 people." Nong Shaozhou stood at the bottom of the steps and looked up at Shen Mingtong and the others, but refused to budge.

With the influence of the Nong's family in Guangnan Prefecture, which is bigger than the Shen's family in Fuzhou, Nong Shaozhou is not necessarily afraid of him.Even if it is now in the Shen family's territory, if the Shen family dares to move him, then the Nong family will definitely fight the Shen family for decades.

"Our Shen family has contacts with Guangdong merchants. Although the population is not as large as your Guangnan Prefecture, the circulation of goods is not poor." Shen Mingtong said, "What's more, the Mo family is willing to exchange the gold, silver and jewelry they brought with us. For food, we can still support these three thousand foreigners for the time being."

"This is Nong Shaozhou, the chieftain of Guangnan Prefecture. I have to admit that he is more powerful than me, and he is fierce and difficult to get along with." Shen Mingtong introduced Nong Shaozhou to the Mo family next to him, and at the same time introduced Nong Shaozhou to Nong Shaozhou. , "And this is Mo Jingkuan, the ninth king of the Mo Dynasty, who came to Fuzhou to take refuge in Fuzhou because of the national disaster."

"The chieftain of Guangnan Prefecture? Please give me more advice." Mo Jingkuan skillfully bowed his hands to Nong Shaozhou.

They, the Mo family, have had countless dealings with the Ming court, and are also familiar with the Chief Secretary of Yunnan and Guangxi. Of course, they must be familiar with the language and etiquette of the suzerain country.According to the current population of 10 under the control of the Mo Dynasty, the Chief Secretary of Yunnan and the Chief Secretary of Guangxi are just powerful chieftains, which are larger than the population of Nong Shaozhou and Shen Mingtong.However, if there are so many chieftains, large and small, from the Chief Secretary of Yunnan and the Chief Secretary of Guangxi, if these chieftains come out in full force, the Mo Dynasty can be wiped out in an instant on the scale of the Battle of Guilin.So Mo Jingkuan still respected these chieftains.

"It's useless to ask me to give you more advice. We, the Nong family, don't want to get involved in the troubled waters of your Annan Kingdom. This is the Guangnan Government Propaganda Envoy sent by the Kyushu Army to our Guangnan Prefecture. He will report to the military leader. The military master will judge your fate." Nong Shaozhou said to Mo Jingkuan.

"I am Chen Yu, the Propaganda Envoy of the Guangnan Prefecture. If you have any requests, you can explain to me. I will report it to the Chief Secretary of Yunnan, and they will pass it on to the capital. The military lord will decide your fate. If the military lord wants to help you With a helping hand, troops may be sent to help you, but if not, you may be deported." Chen Yu didn't like the Mo family's dynasty in exile here.

The Mo family's dynasty is just a mixed tribe of more than [-] people, which is of little value to the Kyushu army.At least Chen Yu thought so.

"I heard that the Ming court was replaced by the Kyushu army court, but Huaxia has always been our suzerain state. Even if the dynasty changes, we should still help the subordinate country when it is in trouble." Mo Jingkuan said anxiously.
