After sighing for a while, Zhu Houzhao looked at Wang Yangming and the others and said, "Everyone, Li Qing led the army to go out, but there must be no surprises in the logistics required by the tens of thousands of troops."

At any rate, Zhu Houzhao is also well versed in military affairs. He is well aware of how important logistical security is when tens of thousands of troops are out on expeditions. Historically, there have been countless major defeats caused by food shortages.

To be honest, Zhu Houzhao is not worried about the combat power of the elite court army led by Li Huan. If he doubts the combat power of this imperial army, then Zhu Houzhao really doesn't know what to do.

What he was really worried about was the supply of food and grass under Li Huan's department. He shouldn't have asked again and again about the food and grass supply of the army directly like now, but Zhu Houzhao kept staring at this matter again and again. matter.

Wang Yangming said to the Son of Heaven with a serious face when he heard the words: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the supply of food, grass and ordnance will be supervised by the minister himself, and people from Jinyiwei and Dongchang will watch from the side. If there is any accident , the minister is willing to accept the crime."

Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly after hearing Wang Yangming's reply.

At this moment, a small servant from the outside suddenly came in a hurry and said in a sharp voice: "Eight hundred li urgent military situation, eight hundred li urgent military situation."

At this moment, everyone in the hall was stunned for a moment, and then all of them looked at the little servant in unison.

At this time, apart from the land in the south of the Yangtze River, Daming really couldn't figure out where the emergency military situation for eight hundred miles came from.

If there are no accidents, it must be that something happened to the chaos of King Ning in the south of the Yangtze River.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the military newspaper in the hand of the little servant eagerly, and immediately said: "Submit it quickly!"

Gao Feng, who was serving at the side, trotted forward after hearing the words, took the General's report from the little servant, and then walked quickly to the emperor, and presented the general's report to the emperor respectfully.

And the gazes of all the people in the hall followed the military report, and they were all staring at the military report held by the emperor at this time.

Zhu Houzhao slowly opened the general newspaper, stared at the content of the military newspaper and read it carefully. It was obvious that Zhu Houzhao's expression was constantly changing. Finally, Zhu Houzhao seemed to have seen some good news, and he couldn't help showing excitement on his face. color.

Although the people present said that they didn't know what was in the military report and what was going on with King Ning's Rebellion, they were able to spy on the content of the military report through the change of the emperor's expression.

Just like the joyful look on Zhu Houzhao's face now, a fool can guess that the content of the military newspaper must be good news. If it is really bad news, it is impossible for the emperor to react like this.

Seeing the happy expression on the emperor's face, many people present secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Among them, almost most of them are on the side of Li Huan and Wang Yangming, and now they can be regarded as branded by Li Huan and Wang Yangming. All are lost.

This time Li Huan led the army to the south to suppress the rebellion, many people in the court secretly expected Li Huan to be defeated, so that Li Huan could be removed, and the New Deal could also be deposed.

They are the ones who most hope that Li Huan can put down King Ning's rebellion smoothly, but the news from the south has not been very good all the time. It has always been the news that King Ning's power is growing step by step, which makes many people A bit of worry arose in my heart.

Especially the news that came not long ago that the number of rebels under King Ning actually exceeded 20, compared to Li Huan who only had 5 horses.

20 to [-], this huge disparity makes people worry that Li Huan will be defeated in this battle.

"Okay, okay, Li Qing really didn't disappoint me!"

Seeing Zhu Houzhao slapping the table suddenly, he stood up suddenly, applauding again and again.

Wang Yangming and the others looked at the Son of Heaven, and waited until the Son of Heaven calmed down a little, as if he had sensed the gazes of Wang Yangming and the others, and then said to the crowd: "Everyone, Li Qing mentioned it in this military report, just a few days ago. Previously, Li Qing led the army to defeat King Ning's 20 troops in the first battle, and took down all the rebels including King Ning, and he will escort King Ning to Beijing in a few days to wait for the court's orders."

"Well, that's great!"

"Champion Hou really deserves to be the No. [-] God of War in Ming Dynasty!"

"My Daming has the champion Hou here, so I don't have to worry about it!"

After listening to the emperor's words, all the officials learned that Li Huan had defeated King Ning's hundreds of thousands of troops in one battle, all of them showed expressions of disbelief, and at the same time they praised repeatedly.

Throughout the ages, there are only a handful of commanders who can destroy hundreds of thousands of troops in one battle. Even the rebels of King Ning are mostly a group of mobs, but even if they are mobs, there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. Under the circumstances, ordinary generals probably would not be able to destroy hundreds of thousands of troops in World War I, but Li Huan did it.

Wang Yangming stroked his beard, suppressed the turmoil in his heart, took the result of the battle report from Gao Feng's hand, and then carefully read it, with a smile on his face.

I saw Wang Yangming passing the general's report to the officials around him, and then bowed to the emperor and said: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, after this battle, King Ning's rebel army was destroyed, and King Ning was captured alive for the champion. The king's rebellion is now settled!"

The rest of the officials came to their senses at this time, and they all congratulated the emperor in unison.

Zhu Houzhao smiled and said: "This is my great Ming's luck, and the people of the world are also lucky!"

If King Ning's rebellion lasted for a long time, and if the First World War lasted for several years, I'm afraid that even if the King Ning's rebellion is finally put down, the whole Jiangnan will be smashed to pieces. By then, Daming will also be severely injured. I don't know how long it will take. To be able to recover.

Although it took a while for Li Huan to put down the rebellion, in truth, the land in the south of the Yangtze River was not affected by the military disaster.

After all, where King Ning passed, many officials directly surrendered the city. As for some cities that resisted, King Ning chose not to attack those cities in order to capture Nanjing City as soon as possible. Going to Nanjing City.

Therefore, it seems that King Ning's rebellion lasted for a long time, but in fact there were not many real battles. Naturally, there was no chaos or defeat of the army to harm the people.

In particular, Li Huan was quick to cut through the mess. He defeated King Ning's rebel army in a single battle in just one day, and reduced the damage of the war to the people to the extreme. Generally speaking, it is the fortune of the country and the country of the Ming Dynasty, and the fortune of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

A group of officials left, and then Li Huan defeated hundreds of thousands of rebels of King Ning in the first battle, captured King Ning alive, and the news of quelling King Ning's rebellion spread like a gust of wind in the capital.

For a moment, I don't know how many people who heard the news were stunned.

I don't know how many people waited to see Li Huan's joke, but in the end they waited for such a great victory, how could they not be shocked by it.

In the imperial city, in the main hall, Wang Yangming did not leave with a group of officials, but was stayed behind by the emperor.

At this moment, only the Son of Heaven, Wang Yangming, and Gao Feng, the attendant, were left in the hall.

Seeing Zhu Hou taking care of Wang Yangming, he said solemnly, "Li Qing secretly asked Ying to supervise the follow-up matters of King Ning's rebellion. I wonder what Wang Qing's family thinks?"

Wang Yangming raised his eyebrows involuntarily when he heard the words, and he couldn't help showing hesitation on his face.

To be honest, Wang Yangming knew Li Huan very well. Originally, Li Huan was the general who suppressed the rebellion and the commander of the three armies. Now that King Ning's rebellion has been decided, Li Huanli will return to the court as a teacher and accept the court's reward.

As for the follow-up matters, the handling of officials, gentry and others who have colluded with King Ning in those places should be personally supervised by officials sent by the imperial court.

But Li Huan took the initiative to play, hoping to personally supervise the matter.

Wang Yangming didn't even have to think about it. If the imperial court sent a team of officials from the third department to personally supervise this major case, there would definitely be many people who slipped through the net. The heads of the people who were killed were rolling, and Jiangnan was stained with blood.

Thinking of Li Huan's killing spree in Fuzhou, Wang Yangming couldn't help sighing in his heart. He looked at Zhu Houzhao and said, "Return to Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. I dare not speak falsely. Please make your own decision."

In fact, Wang Yangming was very hesitant. He knew very well that Li Huan was the best candidate to supervise this case, and only Li Huan himself would be able to make those who colluded with King Ning receive the punishment they deserved. However, Wang Yangming just thought that once this case was handed over to Li Huan, many people would be killed because of it.

After taking a look at Wang Yangming, Zhu Houzhao was sitting there, tapping lightly on the table. After a while, he seemed to have made a decision, and then slowly said: "I will pass on my will, and the mighty general and champion Hou Lihuan will do it for you The imperial envoy personally supervises the case of King Ning's treason, and promises to kill him first and then play it!"

Wang Yangming's heart trembled when he heard the words, he bowed his hands and said: "The old minister takes orders."

Nanjing City

In front of a majestic mansion, a group of soldiers smashed open the extremely thick gate of the mansion like wolves and tigers.

Xicheng Bo Xu Mingliang was surrounded by a group of servants and a dozen generals at the moment, looking at the collapsed gate of the mansion with a terrified and ugly expression.

When he saw the leading figure, Xicheng Bo Xu Mingliang couldn't help shaking his body and almost passed out.

Li Huan strode forward, looked at Xicheng Bo Xu Mingliang, who looked like a mourning concubine, with a bit of sarcasm, and said with a sneer, "Xicheng Bo, you colluded with King Ning and intended to rebel, now that the incident happened, are you convicted?"

Behind Xu Mingliang, a young man couldn't help but said to Li Huan: "You...you are slandering, there is nothing wrong with trying to incriminate it, my Xu family was injured and bled for Daming, and we will retire with the country, how dare you ..."

Li Huan just glanced at the young man indifferently, waved his big hand and said: "Take it down for me, and no one is allowed to escape from the Xicheng Bohe Mansion."

"As ordered!"

Immediately a group of soldiers came forward holding shackles, and there was a cry of pleading in the huge Xichengbo Mansion. However, facing these menacing soldiers, they either resisted and were killed, or they were captured without a fight.

Not only Xicheng Bo's Mansion, but also in Nanjing City, at least dozens of officials and honorable families have soldiers and horses blocking the gates of the mansions to arrest people. It can be said that imperial soldiers and horses can be seen everywhere in the huge Nanjing City. The situation of taking people with cooperation.

In the city of Nanjing, more than half of the officials of Nanzhili were honored and powerful. At this moment, I don’t know how many people are hiding in the mansion and trembling, fearing that the closed gate of the mansion will be knocked open by the wolf-like court soldiers and horses in the next moment. My family, young and old, were put in chains and taken away.

It can be said that Nanjing City, which was once bustling and bustling, was filled with depression and fear.

As the head of the nobles in Nanjing, Wei Guogong's mansion now has a lot of people gathered in Wei Guogong's mansion.

These people are all nobles, officials and even gentry in Nanjing city. The purpose of these people gathering in Wei Guogong's mansion is self-evident, naturally they came to see Wei Guogong Xu Chu.

It's just that when they came to Wei Guogong's mansion, there was no sign of Xu Yu. They stayed in this living room for most of the day, and they couldn't do much except for people who came to bring news from the outside world from time to time.

In the study
Xu Yu, Duke of the State of Wei who was asked to see by a group of people, was sitting there leisurely sipping tea, while Xu Pengju was standing aside to make tea for Xu Yu.

At this moment, Xu Pengju looked at his grandfather and heard the noisy voices coming from the living room not far away, and couldn't help but said, "Grandpa, are you really not sure about going to see those people?"

Xu Wu put down the teacup in his hand, glanced at Xu Peng and said, "Do you think I should go see them, Grandpa?"

Xu Pengju was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No!"

Hearing this, Xu Yu nodded with a smile and said: "Grandpa, I will take you by my side to teach, who knows if there is anything unclean about these people, if there is really any collusion with King Ning in private, if I see Grandpa They, who knows what Champion Hou will think."

When Xu Yu mentioned Li Huan, Xu Pengju couldn't help but said: "Grandpa, although Li Huan is said to be the commander-in-chief of the three armies, after all, he only has the command of the army, not the imperial envoy who supervised the case of King Ning's rebellion. It wasn't the chief officer of the third department sent by the imperial court, but now he is sending people to raid the whole city and arrest King Ning's party everywhere, this...is this a little bit of overreach..."

Xu Wu nodded slightly, looked at Xu Pengju and said, "You can see that this is not bad. He, Li Huan, has indeed exceeded his authority a little bit, but you have to be clear, Li Huan was arrested under the banner of paying off the remnants of King Ning. Damn, even though everyone knows what's going on, you have to admit that it's true that Li Huan arrested people under that banner."

Speaking of which, Xu Yu looked at Xu Pengju solemnly and said: "The most important point is that Li Huan was already deeply trusted by the emperor, and in addition to his outstanding achievements this time, his status in the eyes of the emperor will inevitably be It is even more stable, not to mention just sending troops to arrest King Ning's party, even if he does not use that banner to arrest people casually, the emperor may not say anything."
