Chapter 1083 Determined to Track Down
Gao Youcai was dragged out by the guards, and was beheaded directly outside the tent, and needles could be heard in the tent.

This time, even Zhao Daxian was scared, so he kept his face sullen and stopped talking.

Then Liang Yizhang ordered people to roll their names one by one. Many of them were generals newly transferred to Fujian. Those who were called came forward to salute one after another, and Liang Yizhang nodded to everyone.

After the town governor finished counting the names, Liang Yizhang sat upright, glanced at the generals with dignity, and then said: "The pirates plundered the coast and captured the people in the city. Your Majesty was shocked to hear that, every time I don't want to eat, I can't sleep at night. As a Your servant, you should share your majesty's worries and keep one side safe."

As he spoke, he raised his voice, "This cabinet is ordered by the governor to govern the southeast affairs, you don't have to worry about food, ordnance, and military sources. This cabinet will prepare for you. You military ministers, you only need to kill the enemy with your life, and the pirates will be calmed down as soon as possible. Today, the pavilion called you here to make an agreement with you, that the pavilion has a lot of supplies from you, if anyone loses territory in a captured city, Gao Youcai will be the precedent."

Liang Yizhang slapped the armrest violently, "Your Majesty bestows a precious sword on this pavilion, which is designed to kill those who retreat before the battle."

The generals in the big tent were silent for a moment, they all listened to Liang Yizhang's lecture honestly, even Wang Deren and Liu Heizi looked serious.

Wang Deren had partnered with Liang Yizhang in Sichuan for several years, and he first clasped his fists together to express his position, "Cabinet, I guarantee that I will never lose ground in my defense zone."

Liu Heizi, Li Chengdong and other generals also clasped their fists to express their views. Finally, Zhao Daxian also expressed that he would never lose the city.

Liang Yizhang nodded slightly, "Starting today, the defense zone will be delineated. Jin Shenghuan and Jin Dudu will still defend Guangxi and monitor the western thieves. Bai Wenxuan will deploy Bai Dudu to defend Guangdong, Wang Deren Wang Dudu will defend Fujian, Zhao Daxian and Zhao Dudu will station in Zhejiang. Generals Wang Guangtai and Liu Shun , flexible. I will prepare the logistics for you, and you will be responsible for the specific operations. You must attack the invading thieves head-on! If there is a problem, the cabinet will never let you go lightly."

Liang Yizhang has followed Gao Yihuan for many years, and his prestige is extremely high, and he has a close relationship with Gao Yihuan. It is not comparable to Ding Qirui's half-way surrender, and it is enough to deter the generals.

Many generals clasped their fists in awe, "The humble officer takes orders!"

After Liang Yizhang finished speaking, he looked at Zheng Lian, Zheng Cai and others, and asked: "To solve the southeast issue and completely eliminate the pirates, it is useless to just defend. The attitude of this pavilion and the court is to fight back. Xiamen Naihai A lair of thieves, I hope the navy will take this place down."

Zheng Cai and the others looked perplexed, and came out to salute: "Report to all the ministries, there are many pirate ships, and the naval warfare is powerful. Unless the Xiamen is empty, it will be difficult to capture."

Liang Yizhang waved his hand, "This cabinet is just making a request and dispatching troops for you. How and when to fight is your business. But you can't delay too long. You must see results within one year. Three years Within a short period of time, the southeast must be restored to peace. Otherwise, His Majesty will blame this cabinet, and before this cabinet leaves office, you must be killed first!"

Zheng Cai couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, and didn't dare to say more.

The generals in the tent were as quiet as cicadas. Liang Yizhang glanced at the generals for the last time, and said in a slow tone, "The pirates plundered the coast, kidnapped the people, and made the people miserable. This is the end of the world. This pavilion will take the opportunity to publicize and clear the insiders of the pirates. , clean up the place, and provide you with a stable rear. You must work hard for the court and relieve the people from their downfalls. This cabinet has strict laws and regulations, and those who have made mistakes must be punished, and those who have made merits must be rewarded. If you don’t have a name, you can use your merits in exchange for it!”

~~~~~~
In March, when Liang Yizhang was cleaning up the situation in the southeast, Ding Qirui went to Chang'an under the supervision of Xuan Yiwei, and was questioned by the Ministry of Officials.

In the Tiange, Gao Yihuan looked around, and Ding Qirui frowned slightly.

When the accident happened in the southeast, Ding Qirui wrote a letter stating the crisis in the southeast, and hoped that the imperial court could allocate troops. However, the imperial court was busy preparing to go to North Korea. Memorials.

Not long after he set out for the expedition, he heard about the matter, and thought it was just a minor problem, and since he had already arrived in Liaodong, he didn't pay much attention to it. He didn't realize the seriousness of the matter until later, when the trouble became bigger and bigger.

Gao Yihuan's face was gloomy, and after reading the defense memorial, he said coldly: "The memorial written by Ding Qirui last year, I'll show it to you!"

Not long after, the memorial was brought by the female officer, and Gao Yihuan became angry after reading it.

This kind of memorials of the great officials in Xinjiang should be distinguished from other memorials, but they are placed under many insignificant memorials.

Gao Yihuan's face was gloomy. He was responsible for this matter. Maybe he forgot to read it at the time, or maybe it was put in the wrong place when it was delivered, or maybe the female officer put the memorial at the bottom when she packed it up.

During the Ming Dynasty, in order to kill someone, the emperor had to mark his name with a pen. Only those who got the mark were killed, and those who didn’t were kept in prison, so people often cleared up the eunuchs. It is not a problem to kill the person and live for a year or so, or even a few years.

However, the female official did not have the motivation to put this memorial under other memorials. Gao Yihuan also believed that the female official could not make such a mistake, so the only possibility is that he did not read it himself, or it was misplaced when the cabinet sent it.

"Let Fang Jiayu come to see me!" Gao Yihuan stood on the top floor of the Tiange with his hands behind his back, looking down at his country, and suddenly gave an order.

The Xuanyiwei command post is just outside the palace, separated from the Tiange by a wall.

In order to control all kinds of news, Gao Yihuan ordered someone to open a small side door for Xuan Yiwei so that Xuan Yiwei could report to him at any time.

Not long after, Fang Jiayu came to Tiange, saw Gao Yihuan's back, and hurriedly saluted, "Your Majesty!"

With his back turned to him, Gao Yihuan asked calmly, "You were asked to continue investigating the military assets case before, has there been any progress?"

Fang Jiayu bowed and saluted and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, there are already some clues. In the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs where Zhao Mingrui was imprisoned, some prisoners said that someone had seen Zhao Mingrui the night before Zhao Mingrui committed suicide!"

"Who is it?" Gao Yihuan frowned.

Fang Jiayu replied: "The criminal department has given the case to Liu Yumo!"

Gao Yihuan frowned slightly, "What is the motive for such a small incident, and who is behind him?"

Fang Jiayu hesitated and did not answer immediately, Gao Yihuan turned around and stared at him coldly.

Fang Jiayu hurriedly saluted and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. I don't have conclusive evidence, so I dare not involve the cabinet ministers at will."

Gao Yihuan said coldly: "I let you speak!"

Fang Jiayu then said: "Liu Yumo was a Jinshi of Guiwei in the 16th year of Chongzhen. He was recommended by Mr. Chen Ge to enter the court. I suspect that it is Mr. Chen Ge."

Gao Yihuan let out a heavy breath, and said with a gloomy face, "Put Liu Yumo to prison and have a good trial!"
