I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 213 Mutiny on all sides! Yang Yiqing, don't block our progress! Mongolia was surprised first and then happy! Chaos in the north!

Jiangxi, Jiujiang.

"Dad, what should we do about the current situation?"

At Liu Daxia's home, Liu Haiyuan and officials from the Shipping Department gathered around Liu Daxia.

Such a big event suddenly happened in the Ming Dynasty, which directly overshadowed the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver they lost in Jinling.

Now, they naturally have no interest in sea trade business.

"Are you sure that His Majesty is in Jinling?"

Liu Daxia glanced at the people in the living room. Now his disciples and former officials from Guangdong and Fuzhou also sent special people to come to him to learn from him.

"Confirmed! On the anniversary of Taizu's death, we all reported on our duties one by one and met with His Majesty."

Liu Haiyuan nodded heavily.

"Then... are you sure Jinling is recruiting 100,000 troops now?" Liu Daxia asked again.

"It's confirmed. Currently, Jinling has recruited 50,000 troops, and... Wei Guogong Xu Yan actually showed up in person." Others quickly added.

Liu Daxia was silent for a long time.

"Now, I'm afraid His Majesty will really have to stay in Aurous Hill for a long time!"

"Also recruit one hundred thousand troops..."

Liu Daxia took a deep breath, the wrinkles on his forehead were full of sorrow.

"In the current situation, it is indeed possible for His Majesty to stay in Jinling for a long time. Now, His Majesty has money, food and soldiers in his hands, and he deliberately asked King Xing to hold the emperor hostage to order the princes. Where did he get the confidence? He is not afraid that the Ming Dynasty will suddenly fall into Is the world in chaos?"

Liu Haiyuan didn't understand, but he was really shocked by Zhu Houzhao's generosity.

"Chaos, who dares to cause chaos? Who can cause chaos..."

"All the vassal kings are in Jinling, and now there are 100,000 troops in Jinling at any time..."

"Can't Liu Jian and the others be more patient? Why do they give His Majesty such an excuse!? They know full well that they cannot obtain military power for Your Majesty..."

"Now……"

Liu Daxia was in a very irritable mood. Seeing that Zhu Houzhao was about to stay in Jinling, he was really upset.

"Yes! With such a move, Liu Jian and the others even asked His Majesty to commandeer our ships to transport food and supplies... How do I feel that Your Majesty is a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking? The Northern Expedition is a fake and he takes the opportunity to clean up our South. It's true. !" One Guangzhou official couldn't help but sigh.

"Where are the Japanese pirates..." Someone thought again.

"Why are there Japanese pirates? Chen Qing and the others have already marched out to attack the Japanese country. Now if Japanese pirates appear again, we won't be able to deal with them ourselves. Your Majesty's new army is worried that it will have no place to use!"

"..."

Silence, another long silence.

"Mr. Liu, what should we do now? With the war, our Western business has also been affected."

"That's right! These tricks His Majesty has done! They are too rough! How could he just start a civil war between the North and the South!"

"Does he think that the old Zhu family has been at peace for a long time?"

Then... the depressing atmosphere once again made everyone want Liu Daxia to make up his mind.

"Is there anyone who can get close to His Majesty?"

Liu Daxia looked at everyone.

"How come you are so close to Your Majesty! Mr. Ma, who could have expected that His Majesty would come to Jinling! No one could have expected that His Majesty would let officials like Jinling join the cabinet... We did not manage Jinling at all before. Besides, His Majesty is in Jinling. It seems like he is really being imprisoned by King Xing. He doesn’t spend much time in the palace, but he often goes to Xiaoling Mausoleum!

As soon as Liu Daxia said his words, everyone understood what he meant. They still had to find a way to force Zhu Houzhao to return to the north.

The best way is that Zhu Houzhao's life was threatened in the south.

It's a pity that they have no one in the palace, no one in the harem, and no one in the Jinling officialdom.

"Yes, dad... the officials in Jinling don't even want the gifts we give them! Especially Huang Bao... they accept the gifts but don't do anything at all! Even more exaggerated than the previous cabinet!"

Speaking of this, Liu Haiyuan also burst into tears.

"Stop talking so much!"

"At the moment we can only wait and see!"

"Besides... I don't know why, but I don't feel very stable. In this way, Haiyuan, in the near future, when you have time, you should first transfer some family assets to Ryukyu, to Taiwan, to Hainan..."

Faced with the situation of being attacked by Jinling's 100,000 troops if he showed up, Liu Daxia still had a profound understanding, and obviously he could not act rashly.

All they can do is transfer important assets.

"Okay! Dad, I'll do whatever you want!" Liu Haiyuan nodded.

"As for you...the same is true! After you return to your own place, you must not only stay safe and keep yourselves, but also pay more attention to your people and don't cause trouble! It's best to provide supplies to His Majesty as much as possible if you can! Take advantage of the opportunity and do your best Show your loyalty!”

He also arranged for officials from various places.

"Mr. Liu, I know, I know! We must stay safe!" Everyone quickly agreed.

"It's always right to accumulate food first! It's best not to make any noise here... The bigger trouble should be in the north!"

"The situation that is more critical than ours should be Jiubian!"

"Yang Yiqing, what will he choose?"

Liu Daxia looked far to the north. Whether the world is in chaos now basically depends on Yang Yiqing's choice.

Logically speaking, standing in the south, he should have taken a clear-cut stand and broke with the cabinet.

But the situation was unclear, so he didn't dare to show his face.

……

Jiubian, the important town of Datong!
There were two urgent reports on Yang Yiqing's desk.

One from the cabinet and one from Jinling!
"The vassal king, King Xing, has taken the emperor to command the princes and lead the southern rebels in the northern expedition? He wants us to rush to the aid of the capital and carry out a battle to defend the capital!"

This is an urgent request from the Cabinet.

"His Majesty claimed that the cabinet was treasonous and asked us to capture the thieves on all sides?"

This is an urgent report that Zhu Houzhao held a court meeting to formally announce the cabinet's rebellion.

The capital is closer to Jiubian, while Jinling is far away from Jiubian. This urgent report has only arrived in Datong now.

"Mr. Yang, these two documents? What's going on?"

Liu Yu, the governor of Datong, also presented two identical urgent reports: "You rushed from Shaanxi to Datong. What's going on now? Should we listen to the cabinet or your majesty? What happened to our Ming Dynasty?"

"We Jiubian, what should we do now?"

Because the cabinet is close, news from the cabinet arrives first.

So... Yang Yiqing and others led their troops directly to Datong, and now two document reports of the fight came.

At this time, Yang Yi was the most honest official present, controlling the four towns of Shaanxi, Xunsui, Ningxia, and Gansu, and the five towns of Guyuan, Yulin, Ningxia, Gansu, and Lintao. Recommended by Liu Daxia.

Liu Yu, governor of Datong, governor of Xuanfu, Datong and Shanxi military affairs, was recommended by Ma Wensheng.

The two governors and the general soldiers stared at each other, not knowing what to do.

"Master Liu, if you ask me, I don't know either."

Yang Yiqing shook his head directly and looked at everyone with a solemn expression: "But now we can be sure of one thing, the Ming Dynasty is in chaos! Our nine sides cannot follow the chaos! We must be more prepared for the Mongolian invasion!"

Yang Yiqing also discovered that he had been tricked.

Fortunately, he received the urgent report and hurriedly summoned some troops to prepare to rush to the capital.

fortunately!

When they arrived in Datong, Liu Yu stood still.

Because Liu Yu was also clinging to Liu Jin's position, and it was obvious that he would stand still if he did not deal with the cabinet. This actually saved him.

"Nonsense! Mr. Yang, stop talking nonsense! Both copies are eight hundred miles away... They will fight each other, so why did they drag us with them? And... Is His Majesty really imprisoned by King Xing? Xing King, can you rebel? Is this because you want to incriminate yourself?" Liu Yu gave Yang Yiqing a look of disdain.

Yang Yiqing was silent, and the general soldiers present looked at each other, looking left and right.

"Sir Governor! In my opinion, listen to your Majesty! It must be a rebellion by the cabinet. This official document has a jade seal, and it is an imperial edict! What do they have in the cabinet? The Queen Mother's decree?"

"The capital is close to us! We directly captured the cabinet and handed it over to His Majesty! The meritorious service is right in front of us!"

At this time, Qiu Yue, a general in military uniform and commanding Qian Shi Qiu Yue, said angrily.

"Yes, we agree too! We only recognize the imperial edict, not the cabinet! Our salary is issued by His Majesty, the cabinet... what can they do? Will they only send civilian officials to check and balance us!? Suppress us! They all owe us How much salary!”

As soon as these words came out, several general and deputy generals directly echoed.

They won't think so much, Chun Chun is unhappy with the cabinet!

Especially... civil servants like Yang Yiqing and Liu Yu parachuted in to control their towns, which affected their ability to make money.

This debt must be settled with the civil servants in the cabinet.

Because, from Hongwu to Yongle and then to Zhengtong, the power of the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty was in the hands of these generals.

However, since the Tumubao Incident, the power of the Honorable Lords and the Governor's Office has been greatly weakened. Then... the temporary governors gradually gained real power, and during the Zhengde and Jiajing periods, they gradually developed into permanent nine-border inspectors.

Yang Yiqing's tripartite general system was regarded as a political and military leader. He completely controlled the military power of the general army and started the political practice of using civil society to control military affairs.

Good fight! As soon as there is a war, these general soldiers have power.

Therefore, they directly expressed their dissatisfaction with the conservatism of Yang Yiqing, Liu Yu and others.

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Yang Yiqing and Liu Yu changed drastically.

"Qiu Yue, what are you talking about!? This is obviously a time when our Ming Dynasty's survival is at stake! What will happen to Mongolia when we leave? Do we still need the border!?"

Yang Yiqing directly scolded his subordinate Qiu Yue, for fear of inciting a mutiny.

"Can't move! I think we can't move! Whether it's an urgent report from the cabinet or an urgent report from His Majesty! Especially your Majesty's urgent report, let us suppress the chaos on the spot! Obviously we have taken this situation into consideration "

At this moment, Daming's interests were obviously put in front of Yang Yiqing.

He hurriedly appeased everyone, fearing that they would mutiny!
"My Lord Governor, I think you can suppress me for a while, but I'm afraid you won't be able to suppress me forever."

"This is not the Tumu Fort Incident! It is civil strife in the Ming Dynasty. We should... listen to whoever gives us money and food!"

"Why do we have to guard Jiubian so hard! Why can other brothers have the power of following the dragon?"

"We also want to go back to the capital, or go to Jinling to enjoy ourselves!!"

"Yes! Why are our soldiers from all over the world sacrificing their lives to protect our country, but they can't live a good life?"

"The cabinet is treason! They forced Your Majesty to go to Aurous Hill!"

"I also heard that after His Majesty ascended the throne, he wanted to improve the treatment of our Jiubian soldiers! But the cabinet rejected it!"

"We decisively send troops now! Take down the cabinet! At that time, whether His Majesty continues to be His Majesty, or whether King Xing really becomes the Emperor, this is all obvious credit!"

"Cabinet! What can they give us?"

"They only want us to fight, fight! But they never treat us as human beings!"

"Yes, yes! What can the cabinet give us!? As long as we suppress the cabinet now, it will be a great achievement!"

The more you are afraid of something, the more it will happen.

Yang Yiqing's deterrence was fine in normal times, but now in this situation, his deterrence was almost gone.

As for guarding against foreign enemies?

Haha, why are they guarding against foreign enemies? Waiting for someone else to pick peaches?
At this moment, as these general soldiers vented and complained, everyone's thinking became clearer and clearer, and things became clearer and clearer.

Feeling the overwhelming fighting spirit, Liu Yu was already frightened.

"Shut up! What do you want to do? Do you want to mutiny?" Yang Yiqing was also trembling, and his face was ashen and he yelled, trying to suppress the ambitions of these generals.

"Mutiny?"

"Governor Yang! You can't control us!"

"Are you giving us money?"

"Besides! Didn't the cabinet ask you, Governor Yang, to rush for reinforcements?"

"Haha...Then we will listen to the cabinet! Rush for help! This is a lesson learned! Your Majesty and the cabinet, let us take action!"

At this moment, Yang Yiqing's shock was close to zero. The generals who were usually suppressed by them sneered and refused one by one: "Farewell! The military situation is extremely urgent! Governor, we will not accompany you!"

"go!"

"go!"

They just leave.

Sonorous!

"Whoever dares to walk out of here will definitely have his blood splattered on the spot!"

Seeing that he could not stop a military disaster, Yang Yiqing drew out his sword in a hurry: "Someone, stop them!"

"Master Governor, don't let us treat you disrespectfully. If things get serious, you will see whether everyone supports you or not..."

Such threats were of no use at all. The generals left one by one. Even if some soldiers came in, they would be at a loss to see this situation.

"Qiu Yue! You! Stop them!"

Yang Yiqing almost fainted and quickly ordered Qiu Yue.

"Governor, I can't do it! I also think that we should go north to capture the thieves now!" Qiu Yue also left immediately.

"Hahaha!"

"Master Governor, you should continue to be your governor! You will guard Jiubian well. We are rich and powerful, and we will not forget you!"

This time, the general soldiers even smiled and left.

"Stop! Stop!"

Yang Yiqing tried to stop everyone, but unfortunately... no one listened to him.

and!

These general soldiers quickly gathered their troops on the spot, summoned their garrison troops, and set off directly north!

Jiubian generals and soldiers.

Under such relatively contradictory orders, it is really easy to make a choice only after simple thinking!

As for the remaining border troops, when they saw that their brothers had left, they would stupidly stay in place to guard the border!
Naturally, with Yang Yiqing's reputation, there are still many troops following him.

It's a pity that they are facing a nine-border defense line that is thousands of miles long. The army controlled by Yang Yiqing, trying to defend it is nothing more than a drop in the bucket and a fool's errand.

The large-scale military changes in Jiubian were like dominoes, causing a series of reactions in an instant.

First of all, there are the families of the soldiers. They immediately follow the army to evacuate, hurry up and leave!
Such a large-scale movement, which can affect the entire body, naturally frightened some Mongolians, thinking that the Ming Dynasty was going to send out heavenly troops to attack them again, so they became nervous for a moment.

But soon their spies or Erwuzi passed the news about Daming to their ears without missing a beat.

Then looking at Jiubian who was almost defenseless, they showed ecstasy!

"Quick! Quick! Quick! Organize the people to retreat! Retreat!"

Yang Yiqing quickly learned of this situation and did not bother to stop the troops heading north to quell the rebellion. He quickly organized people from all over the country to retreat and enter the city!

Retreat, just for a moment.

The moment such a large-scale retreat occurred, the panic brought from Jiubian was like a tsunami sweeping across the north in an instant.

The north is in chaos!
