In just two months, the situation has changed dramatically and is dazzling.

In mid-July, Zhang Lian raised his troops and captured three prefectures and eight counties within half a month, conquering nearly one quarter of Fujian Province.

In early August, Yu Dayou, the general of Nangan, and Qi Jimei, guerrilla general, joined forces with Gutian County to defeat Xiao Wansou and lead 5,000 troops, achieving a decisive victory in Fujian Province.

When the army reported to the capital, Emperor Jiajing was overjoyed and promoted Qi Jimei to the general, and wrote the word "loyalty and courage" in hand and rewarded another 50 taels of silver.

In mid-August, civil and military generals such as Yu Dayou, Qi Jimei, Wu Baipeng, and Wang Daokun led their troops westward to encircle and suppress the bandits entrenched in Shaowu Prefecture and Tingzhou Prefecture.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Lian, who had been huddling to defend, suddenly entered Jiangxi on September 10th. Although Wu Baipeng and Qi Jimei had many achievements, Yu Dayou led his army to chase into Jiangxi, but Zhang Lian and Xiao Wan marched very quickly and marched west along the Ru River, bypassing Nancheng County, the prefecture of Jianchang Prefecture, and entered Fushui and attacked Fuzhou Prefecture.

On September 15, the bandit army attacked Linchuan County, the capital of Fuzhou. The Jiangxi Governor You Zhende and the Jiangxi General led his troops to aid. He was ambushed by Xiao Wan. The bandits were fearless and fought in close combat. The officers and soldiers were defeated. The Jiangxi General was the first to flee, and You Zhen disappeared.

On September 16, Zhang Lian led the bandit army to attack Linchuan again. The city was broken that day, and the bandits plundered, which was extremely miserable.

One bad news after another came to the capital. In Jianchang Prefecture alone, five counties were destroyed in Ganzhou Prefecture, and Fuzhou Prefecture was even more in chaos. Now the capital was bustling, at least the Censorate and the Sixth Department were bustling.

Someone impeached Fujian Governor Wu Baipeng? Someone impeached the general Qi Jimei? Even Yu Dayou did not escape this disaster... He led three thousand soldiers and did not dare to attack rashly, and was impeached and robbed.

But it may not be a bad thing for Suiyuan? It has been nearly two months now? Those censors of the Taoist silenced their mouths, about Qian Yuan? About Zhenhai and about opening a sea ban on trade? This is considered "old news" in Beijing.

Now there is chaos in Jiangxi? Well, all the important officials in the court know that Hu Zongxian's promotion of several southeastern provinces has exhausted the people's efforts, and Fujian is not curbed now? Xuanda Ji Liao in the north is even more tragic? Jiangxi... It is most likely that Ningbo will rely on the transfer of Jiangxi to Ningbo.

For Qian Yuan, it is not unhelpful to the thief army enters Jiangxi. At least everyone can see clearly what real benefits the opening of a maritime ban on trade can bring to this country.

For example, Yan Song and Yan Donglou both supported Tang Shunzhi in public, not to mention Fang Dun, the Minister of Revenue, had already transferred Chen Younian, a scholar from Suiyuan to the Ministry of Revenue? The Ningbo Qingli Department was prepared to manage tax and bank accounts and warehouse entry matters.

Emperor Jiajing, with a gloomy face, has not been in seclusion for many days? He walked around the back hall in annoyance... If Ningbo hadn't sent another batch of silver to him in July, he would have been unable to hold on!

The next batch of tax and silver should be sent to Beijing in October... I wonder if I can get it in advance? Or directly to Jiangxi?

Emperor Jiajing shook his head slightly. Yan Shifan was originally from Jiangxi? I ​​was afraid he would swallow half of it.

The first thing now is that the court will launch the governor of Jiangxi... You are so shocked that you will be sentenced to death? Even if you are not dead, you will be sentenced to prison.

The candidates recommended by the Ministry of Personnel are not very suitable? Yan Song obviously did not want Xu Jie to reach into Jiangxi, but Yan Song did not have very capable candidates.

Emperor Jiajing sighed deeply, why did the Japanese riots in the southeast be so valued by the imperial court, and did not hesitate to set up a governor of Zhejiang, promote several provinces, and train new troops?

On the one hand, the Japanese pirates were too fierce, on the other hand, the wealth and wealth in the southeast are the pillar of the Ministry of Revenue, and on the other hand, there are many aristocratic families in the southeast... To put it simply, there are those who have produced several Jinshi everywhere in the southeast!

At the beginning, the position of governor of Zhejiang was appointed as the governor of the Japanese, because the descendants of Xie Qian, who was once the chief minister, were killed by the Japanese pirates as the fuse.

And Jiangxi... It is no exaggeration to say that at this point in time, there are far more aristocratic families in Jiangxi than in the southeast, because the region is narrower and more concentrated.

The court and the central government took great pressure on this. One-third of the people from Jiangxi were from the Cabinet, the two capitals and six ministries.

Jianchang Prefecture, Ganzhou Prefecture and Fuzhou Prefecture were in chaos, and the next one was likely to be Ji'an Prefecture, which bordered Ganzhou Fu and Fuzhou Prefectures.

At that time, the government and the people said, "Hanlin Duojishui, the court clerks half of Jiangxi."

Jishui is located in Ji'an Prefecture. Once the city is broken, tsk!

Seeing Huang Jin stepping into the hall quickly, Emperor Jiajing turned around and asked, "Who is the court pushing him?"

"The Ministry of Personnel recommended Zhang Yan, Minister of War, Nanjing, and the left censor said that Zhang Yan was from Nanchang, Jiangxi." Huang Jin smiled bitterly: "The Ministry of Works recommended Fujian Censor Wang Daokun, and the left censor Zhao Zhenji, and the court promotion has not yet ended."

Emperor Jiajing sneered twice. He knew the thoughts of those ministers. Logically speaking, Nanchang Prefecture is in the north of Fuzhou Prefecture, and Zhang Yang led the Secretary of War in Nanjing, and he was the most suitable from any angle.

The Zuodu Censor Zhou Yan was the same year as Xu Jie, so he naturally had to reject it. The civil servants' position cannot be in their hometown... But in fact, this article can be compatible. At least Hu Zongxian, who served as the governor of Zhejiang, is an example. The Huizhou Prefecture area belongs to Nanzhili, and the prison review and troop allocation are all undertaken by Zhejiang Province.

Wang Daokun is also from Huizhou and is a fellow villager with Hu Zongxian. Yan Dang is relatively acceptable, while Zhao Zhenji... Yan Song and Yan Shifan were crazy and asked Xu Jie to block this person to Jiangxi.

Emperor Jiajing paced back and forth, suddenly turned around and asked, "Where is the literary man?"

"Uh..." Huang Jin paused, "Wen Chang and Yan Donglou had a few words on Zhilu..."

Emperor Jiajing was inexplicably feeling slightly better. Xu Wei was not afraid of anyone. From the chief assistant of the cabinet, Yan Song, who actually mastered the votes, Yan Shifan, who was close to the Hanlin of the Qingci such as Yuan Wei and Guo Pu, was the only one who added Emperor Jiajing...

A moment later, Xu Wei laid the map copied from the Ministry of War at the feet of Emperor Jiajing. "The terrain of Jiangxi has always been complicated, and there are many rivers, and the bandits are everywhere, making it difficult for officers and soldiers to kill calmly.

The Japanese trepidation in Fujian has not subsided, and Qi Jiguang is still suppressing Japanese troops along the coast. Although Yu Dayou, Qi Jimei and Wu Weixi lead their troops to defeat the bandits in succession, they have insufficient troops and are difficult to cut off the bandits' army into Jiangxi.

The most important thing now is that the bandit army cannot go north to defeat Nanchang and rush into Poyang Lake."

"Will the bandit army go north?" Huang Jin asked carefully, feeling anxious. Two months ago, Xu Wei said that the bandit army and the Japanese pirates were afraid of collusion, so the bandit army advanced eastward, almost turmoiling a province in Fujian.

Emperor Jiajing looked at Xu Wei with a little fear... This was a crow's mouth. If it weren't for Yu Dayou and Qi Jimei's joint victory, the entire Fujian would be hard to say.

"I'm afraid I won't." Xu Wei pointed to Ganzhou and hesitated to include the nearby Linjiang Prefecture, Ji'an Prefecture. "Zhang Lian and Xiao Wan were born in northern Guangdong, so I'm afraid they will go south to Guangdong from this."

After pausing, Xu Wei added softly: "Governor Wu Guifang of Guangdong and Guangxi is a new native of Nanchang, Jiangxi Province. He was a Jinshi in the 23rd year of Jiajing. He made contributions to the attack on the Japanese in Yangzhou Prefecture in the 33rd year of Jiajing. He served as the left governor of Zhejiang and the right deputy censor and Prime Minister Hedao. He took over as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi at the beginning of the year."

Emperor Jiajing thought it was a bit funny. Those who really couldn't let go of Jiangxi... are basically from Jiangxi. Among the officials from Jiangxi, there are also many outstanding people with both civil and military status, but they cannot become the governor of Jiangxi because of their hometown.

After pondering for a while, Emperor Jiajing asked in a low voice: "When will Ningbo Tax Bank be escorted to Beijing?"

A big bend made Xu Wei not come back to his senses for a long time. He was stunned and said, "It's about mid-October, and he always needs to make a record."

"I heard that Zhancai received a lot of grain and rice at a fair price?"

"It was all collected from South China and North Korea." Xu Weigan smiled and said, "It was not Zhan Cai... it was Tang Shunzhi, the governor of Ningbo."

Emperor Jiajing glanced at him, and Xu Wei immediately stopped his voice and lowered his head.

A long sigh came, and Emperor Jiajing sneered: "He Qian Zhancai will prepare for the future and go to Fujian by meddling in other people's business!"

Xu Wei didn't dare to refute, so he could only curse Qian Yuan in his heart... You are stupid, everything was written in the letter and sent to Xiyuan!
Chapter completed!
