Chapter 682 Blessings never come together, misfortunes never come singly!

In the ninth year of Zhaowu, since the beginning of the new year, after the situation in the northwest and the grasslands had been completely settled, the imperial court had not undergone major changes. Undoubtedly, this should have been a year of complete peace in the world.

But the so-called blessings and misfortunes, until the ninth year of Zhaowu, God did not want Daheng to live a peaceful life.

In April of the ninth year of Zhaowu, Shaoxing suffered a sudden hailstorm, and the prefect of Shaoxing made a horrific statement, "The biggest hailstone is like an elephant, and the second is like a cow, and it lasts for half a day." The emperor sent the capital inspector to Shaoxing for inspection.

Although the prefect of Shaoxing exaggerated, the hail disaster was still serious. The censors reported that the houses of the people in Shaoxing were damaged by hail nine out of ten, the mulberry seedlings and rice seedlings were miserable, and hundreds of people were injured by the hail.

But when the imperial court urgently dealt with the hail disaster in Shaoxing, the governor of Shaanxi, Shangzuo, said that rat plagues broke out in several prefectures of Fengxiang, Mizhi and Langping.

It is said that when a mouse meets a human, it is not afraid or dodges, it is extremely rampant, it eats the crops, and steals the food of the common people...

If we talk about the hail disaster in Shaoxing, whether it is the emperor or the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, they are used to it. After all, these years, this abnormal weather has already been experienced countless times.

But this rat disaster made the Daheng Center suddenly tense up.

The plague of rats is not just a plague of rats, if you are not careful, it is the plague!

As for Shaanxi, an important place for the implementation of the emigration policy, people in Shaanxi are organized and migrated to other provinces every day.

Moreover, Shaanxi is the northwest frontier, and it is also an important place for northwest frontier trade.

If the plague breaks out in Shaanxi, with such a large population, the consequences will be unimaginable!

After the memorial directly reached the center, the emperor immediately convened a group of ministers to discuss matters and formulated a series of policy guidelines.

Hundreds of doctors were mobilized from Daheng Medical College, led by several big national players, and under the escort of Jin Yiwei, they rushed to Shaanxi.

At the same time, the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Metropolitan Procuratorate also sent a special supervision team to Shaanxi.

At the same time, the imperial court's order also arrived in Shaanxi.

Suspension of migration, strict investigation, and prevention of plague.

The only fortunate thing is that after some investigation, this time, the worst plan of the emperor and courtiers did not appear.

The so-called blessings do not come together, and misfortunes never come singly. This time, Daheng's misfortune did not come singly, but came one after another.

The revived White Lotus Sect, in Fujian and Guangxi, in the name of anti-Heng Fuming, Yaozun the former Emperor Jingwu of the Ming Dynasty who was under house arrest in the capital, blatantly rioted!

In one night, several counties were captured!

When the news reached the capital, the emperor was furious!

Strictly order Fujian and Guangxi provinces to organize heavy troops to suppress Bailian.

But the emperor's will is still on the way, and another disaster is coming one after another.

The southwestern Yunnan-Guizhou chieftains rebelled, led by Shuixi chieftains, brazenly rebelling, and the flames of war swept across most of the southwestern border in an instant.

What's ridiculous is that these chieftains who had disobeyed the enlightened rule of the Ming Dynasty since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, this time they rebelled, they also held high the banner of the Ming Dynasty, rebelled against Heng and restored the Ming Dynasty, and respected Emperor Jingwu who was under house arrest in the capital.

The sudden outbreak and rapid spread of these two rebellions seemed to have completely exceeded everyone's expectations.

The so-called...the one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world.

Daheng is undoubtedly extremely unpopular in Jiangnan.

Of course, this public opinion does not refer to the hearts of the people.

It is the hearts of the landlords and gentry.

It is a very clear fact that in the former Ming Dynasty, the imperial court shared the world with the landlords and gentry.

Landlords and gentry can freely control most of the resources and squeeze the common people.

In Daheng, the emperor slaughtered the landlords and gentry many times, and has always been on guard to suppress them.

The so-called stealing people's money is like killing their parents.

The government of the Son of Heaven is more than just stealing people's money and killing their parents.

In recent years, the number of landlords and gentry who have been ransacked or distributed by ransacking across the country can be said to be an extremely terrifying number.

But it is undeniable that nowadays, the old landlords and gentry still control most of the resources.

And these people, in this harsh living environment, obviously find it difficult to have any loyalty to Daheng.

On weekdays, due to the might of the Daheng army, they would not dare to act recklessly, but even if there is a chaos, even if they dare not participate, if they add fuel to the flames, add insult to injury, and vent their hatred, obviously some people will dare to do it.

Especially in the south of the Yangtze River, there has not been a hoard of troops like the northern provinces.

In this way, in the time since the war report went back and forth from the capital to the local area, the flames of war have already spread to less than half of the south of the Yangtze River.

Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi, Fujian...

These mountainous and complex terrains, which are not conducive to the march of the army, are like a mess.

Of course, even if Daheng is in the south of the Yangtze River and has not hoarded heavy troops, but now Daheng's military strength is at its peak, local inspections, guards, and elite battalions stationed in various places are enough to firmly control the situation. live.

Facing Daheng Bingfeng, who was armed to the teeth, experienced and victorious in all battles, whether it was the Bailian Rebel Army or the chieftain of Yunnan and Guizhou, it was obviously no match for him.

But there is also a very real problem, that is, Bailian and the chieftain of Yunnan and Guizhou obviously rely on each other.

Not to mention the impetus of the landowners and gentry who want to see Daheng's jokes, the terrain of the provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangdong, Guangxi and Fujian is not uncomplicated.

If the rebellious army hid on any hill, they would have to be blinded by Daheng's soldiers, and the chieftain of Yungui, who was born and bred in Yunnan and Guizhou, was even more familiar with the terrain.

Facing such a guerrilla warfare that has almost mastered the essence, it is enough to make Daheng exhausted.

After all, today is different from the past, when Daheng went south, it was an attack!

And Nanming, it's Shou!

They are all grandiose frontal wars. Even in the later stages of the war, when the army is everywhere, it is the wantonness of the era of military control.

Who cares about killing innocent people by mistake or destroying the livelihood and economy of local governments and counties?

But now, the south has been ruled by Daheng, and every place is the land of Daheng. This undoubtedly puts a thick layer of shackles on Daheng Bingfeng.

The same is true in the land of Yunnan and Guizhou. The land of Yunnan and Guizhou is an important border area and is supervised by Duke Yan Shun of the State of Yue. Now that there is such a big disturbance, Lord Yan Shun of the State of Yue is obviously a little guilty.

After all, in the past, the imperial court's strategy for the chieftain of Yunnan and Guizhou has always been to appease.

Yan Shun is also aware of this, after all, Daheng's current center of gravity is not in the south, but in the north.

The south side, of course, can appease, first appease.

Now that there was a sudden turmoil, before the central government gave a clear order, the Daheng Southwest Army was obviously quite restrained.

After all, even if it is to suppress the rebellion, it is worth how to suppress it.

To suppress mainly, or to caress?

Therefore, right after the rebellion broke out, after mobilizing heavy troops to control the important cities and main roads in various places and controlling the situation in Yunnan and Guizhou, the Southwest Army did not make much moves, but was in a strategic defensive position as a whole.

Waiting for the court, or the will of the emperor to come...

Chapter 683 Concerns

"The White Lotus Sect is hidden deep among the people, and its actions are extremely secretive. It is divided into various places, often hidden in steep mountains, with natural caves as fortresses..."

"Even if the locals are familiar with the terrain, it is difficult to lead the way in the vast mountains..."

"In addition, Bai Lian should confuse the ignorant people with the teachings of the cult, and provide them with cover, money, food and materials..."

In the Qianqing Palace, Li Ruolian, the commander of Jinyiwei, fell to his knees and prostrated himself on the ground, sweating like raindrops, and tremblingly reported to the emperor.

"boom!"

A pile of them slammed straight at Li Ruolian, but Li Ruolian didn't dare to dodge at all, and forcibly endured the emperor's fury.

"So, this is the result of Jin Yiwei spending countless money every year?"

"Come and tell me, Jin Yiwei, in your hands, what have you done all these years?"

After the emperor sat at the table, his anger seemed to be burning.

The emperor was not surprised that the southwestern Yunnan and Guizhou chieftains rebelled.

After all, although Daheng maintained a moderate policy in the Southwest, since the pacification of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces in the Southwest, he has built roads and relocated people, which has already imperceptibly violated the interests of the local chieftains.

Furthermore, the chieftains of Yunnan and Guizhou were rebellious and unruly, and since the Ming Dynasty, the rebellion has almost never stopped.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty and now, they have not experienced the devastation of various forces taking turns taking turns in history, and their strength has been preserved extremely well.

Rebellion is a matter of time.

But the Bailian Rebellion was obviously not expected by the emperor at all.

From this matter, the name of Bailian, to the emperor, can be said to be like a thunderbolt.

The foundation of the foothold in the former Ming Dynasty was the white lotus sent to the door.

But obviously, the emperor will not have any heroes for the White Lotus Sect.

No ruler would have any favor with a cult that specializes in rebellion.

Since taking power, even in the pre-Ming period, the Son of Heaven has never relaxed his attack on Bailian.

For so many years, a considerable part of the Jinyiwei's focus, especially after the General Staff Intelligence Department cut off the Jinyiwei's foreign intelligence duties, the White Lotus Sect has become the number one target of the Jinyiwei.

It consumes a lot of manpower and material resources every year!

But that's the case, the White Lotus Sect is like a Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten to death. Every time it is suppressed, it won't take long before it jumps out again, and from time to time it runs out to feel sick.

This time, it jumped out again.

Of course, no matter how violent the White Lotus Sect is, it can't shake the foundation of the country, but its level of disgust is second to none!

How could Li Ruolian please the emperor if he made the emperor sick!

"Your Majesty's forgiveness!"

Facing the emperor's wrath, Li Ruolian fell to his knees, his back completely soaked in sweat.

"Forgiveness?"

The emperor sneered: "There is such a big turmoil, you tell me to forgive the crime?"

"It's fine if you can't find it in normal times, but Jin Yiwei didn't notice the slightest disturbance when there was such a big commotion?"

"What are you Li Ruolian doing, what are Jin Yiwei doing?"

"What the hell do you want to do?"

The emperor became more and more furious, and kicked Li Ruolian to the ground with a fierce kick.

"Your Majesty, give me three months, two months, as long as two months, I will definitely find out and wipe out all the members of the White Lotus Cult who participated in this rebellion!"

Li Ruolian kowtowed fiercely, and issued a military order eagerly.

"It's come to this point, what can you do?"

"Let Jin Yiwei go to suppress the rebellion?"

The emperor laughed back angrily: "Okay, two months, right? I will give you two months. No matter what method you use, after two months, I will see that the bullshit leader of the White Lotus Sect and Fujian, The heads of those bullshit rudder masters in Guangdong and Guangxi!"

"If you can't do it, use your head instead!"

"I... I obey the order!"

Li Ruolian didn't dare to say anything, and responded loudly.

"get out!"

The emperor scolded, and Li Ruolian left in embarrassment. The emperor was still angry, and his eyes seemed to glance at Er Dezi inadvertently. The chill also made Er Dezi's heart tremble suddenly, and he quickly lowered his head respectfully.

He naturally knew what the emperor's eyes meant.

The emperor is warning him!

Jinyiwei exists on the bright side, and is known to the world as legal and compliant, reasonable and reasonable.

Although the "East Factory" under his control exists in fact, it doesn't even have a minimum nominal system.

The so-called being in his position and seeking a job, he naturally wanted to fight for one or two.

Organizations of the same nature naturally have to compete with Jinyiwei for power and profit.

It can be said that Bai Lian's madness must also have his credit.

After all, he can be regarded as involving a considerable part of Jin Yiwei's energy.

The emperor is warning him!
