In the end, the number of people in Henan increased to millions, took less than a month to complete the dredging of the Li River channel for Yang Xiangguo...

This was good for them as well.

After all, inland shipping will remain the main means of transportation for a long time to come.

In fact, it is not just the Li River. Yang Xiangguo has ordered the digging of river channels throughout Henan to restore the developed inland shipping network during the Northern Song Dynasty.

Immediately afterwards, the giant cannons loaded on the ship began to go downstream and then arrived at the next stop of Yancheng. The local people had already controlled six village geniuses who were extremely guilty. In addition, the people from several counties and counties around Ying and Xiping also escorted the elders they captured to reload the bullets for Yang Xiangguo. After all, he could not go to every county, so wherever he passed, the people around could escort the elders who they thought were to be punished, and then Yang Xiangguo could escort them.

This cannon is also a little overwhelmed...

After all, the lifespan of this kind of bronze cannon is only a few hundred rounds.

However, this problem is easy to solve, because the new guns were transported from the south.

He has already entered the Yinghe River system, so there is no need to worry about this problem. In short, Yang Xiangguo quickly replaced his new cannon in Xihua.

Then he continued to move to Shahe North.

And those who followed him were already over one million young and strong.

Anyway, the season is just beginning, and winter wheat is common in Henan. However, after the wheat harvest, different crops are planted according to the conditions in different places. Rice with water, grains without water, and even sweet potatoes and corn have begun to grow, but it is indeed not too busy before the wheat harvest.

The vast million young and strong men were walking, taking boats, and driving donkey carts, following the cannon in the middle like a torrent sweeping forward.

In this way, I arrived at Zhuxian Town.

Then he stopped again, the cannon landed, started laying the track again, and slowly moved towards Kaifeng.

At the same time, people from all over the south of the Yellow River are also escorting the elders and wise men to gather towards the city.

The Red Turban Army of Huaibei went north to take over their city.

Marshal Yang officially reported to the Princess Yingtian, that he had successfully restored Henan, while the Princess of the Princess quickly reported to the Emperor of Guangzhou that Prime Minister Yang had revived Henan, and then His Majesty the Emperor issued an order to increase the title of Prime Minister Yang...

Uh, I can't add it anymore.

Since you cannot be promoted, then increase your fiefdom!

However, he is the prince of Liaodong, and he can only add to Liaodong if he wants to add. If that is the case, then add it. There are places in Liaodong, and add a million hectares of fiefdom north of the original. Because he has added many times before, the fiefdom of Yang Prime Minister has reached tens of millions of hectares so far. In theory, the Jurchen tribes of Jintaiji and the Mongolian tribes north of Kaiyuan are all on the fiefdom of Yang Prime Minister.

He will pay taxes again!

Jin Taiji and others have to pay taxes to Yang Xiangguo every year, although it is a symbolic one, such as ginseng and animal skins.

But he was paying taxes.

As for tribute to the emperor, it is also essential.

Although they lived in the territory of Yang Xiangguo, they were still ministers of the Ming Dynasty.

However, the Mongolian herders who also live in Yang Xiangguo's territory have always refused to pay taxes to him, so Yang Xiangguo has always been very angry about this kind of serious infringement of his interests and has repeatedly asked local officials in Liaodong to help him to seek...

Forced urge.

But he must have to stay in Kaifeng for some time.

The main reason is that the cannon is too difficult to cross the Yellow River, and it is even difficult to enter even if it enters the Yellow River.

At this time, the Yellow River was a river on the ground. If you want to enter the Yellow River, you have to climb up first. After going up, you have to face a long river beach. There is no wharf that can withstand its weight, and there is not even a river beach road that can withstand its weight.

So if you want it to enter the Yellow River, you must first carry out a large-scale infrastructure construction.

Another option is to turn south into Sui River, then head south to Suqian, where you enter the Yellow River and then into the canal, but in that case, the people of Hebei will continue to look forward to it, which is obviously not in line with the principle of Yang Xiangguo. Finally, after some research, it is the most suitable to do infrastructure, that is, find a suitable location on the Yellow River, and then start from the south bank with a large amount of concrete to build a road leading to the top of the dam, so that a dozen tons of cannon trucks can go up.

Then dig the river beach below to create a waterway.

There was a special transport ship at the same time, and a trestle bridge that could withstand a dozen tons of weight was built using concrete and giant wood at the end of the road.

Cannons can be pushed up.

At the same time, we use steel to create a crane that can lift it.

The rest is to hang it up.

The opposite side also has the same method, so that you can cross the Yellow River.

But they have all been done like this. Of course, they are using these two foundations to directly pull a floating bridge on the Yellow River.

In this way, Yang Xiangguo stopped temporarily in Kaifeng. While commanding the construction of his river crossing project, he continued to kill the elders and fellow villagers who arrived in various places. At the same time, the Red Turban Army crossed the Yellow River, quickly captured Weihui and Huaiqing Prefectures, and then built the river crossing project on the north bank. A large number of architecture students who graduated from Yingtian University were transferred from the south to lead the militia to complete the project, and the materials needed were transported from the south and upstream. The Red Turban Army, which completed the occupation in various places, began to divide the fields in the local area.

The land division in Huguang is also in progress.

And at this moment...

Qufu.

"Big, bold, what do you want to do? This is Yansheng Gong Mansion!"

In front of Yanshenggong's mansion, Yanshenggong's father Kong Shangtan looked at the dozen Confucius and Mencius knights in front of him in panic.

Although Kong Shangxian was stolen and killed, Yan Shenggong still had no choice but to be granted, but Wanli did not have a title. Yan Shenggong is now a title of Hongguang. However, Kong Shangxian has done a lot of bad things with Yang Feng, so his reputation has been defiled, and his descendants are not worthy of being Yan Shenggong anymore.

He actually has two sons.

However, after discussions by the Hongguang court, especially the opinions of the Shandong Council, the Hongguang court finally issued an order to designate his nephew Kong Yinzhi as the new Yansheng Gong.

He is Kong Shangtan's son, but he is nine years old, so the Kong family is actually his father.

"Donald Xuanyu, now that the thief army is coming, Yan Shenggong will not be spared. It is inevitable that Yan Shenggong will fall into the thief's hand. We are ordered by the commander of the great commander to respectfully invite Yan Shenggong to Jiaozhou."

Knight Fang Kezhuang from the Knights of Confucius and Mencius said.

"Jiao, Jiaozhou?"

Kong Shang said frankly.

He wanted to run away, after all, his son Yan Shenggong was born by Hongguang, and Yang Feng might not let them go if he came.

But it’s inexplicable to go to Jiaozhou.

"If the country is lost today, the north and south have already been in the hands of the demon. The Ming Dynasty is full of demonic atmosphere. This place is no longer the place where my sages and sages live. The Confucius and Mencius Knights decided to travel to Fusang to rebuild the Confucian Kingdom on earth. Previously, Nurhaci, the left governor of Jianzhou Guard, persecuted Li Chengliang and had to travel to Fusang to rely on the Japanese. Now, he has established a foundation in Japan and sent envoys to invite him.

We want to follow the Yan Shenggong to travel east to Fusang to preserve the Confucian tradition."

Another knight, Xie Qiguang, said.

"Well?"

Kong Shangtan was stunned.

What the hell is this? What is going to travel to Fusang? What is Nurhaci? He even wants to hide, but he doesn’t have to hide so far, right?

But he suddenly woke up...

"I want to see Bi Zisu's handwriting!"

He said.

"Mr. Xuanyu, now he is in a hurry. Where did you get the warrant? Students, hurry up, go in and invite Duke Yan Sheng out!"

Fang Kezhuang waved and shouted.

The entourages behind him immediately rushed towards the mansion.

"What are you going to do? I want to see Bi Zisu's warrant. Without his warrant, you cannot take Yan Shenggong away!"

Kong Shangtan shouted anxiously.

This was not the order of the Confucius and Mencius Knights. The leader of the Confucius and Mencius Knights at this time was Bi Zisu. Most of the people who were with Yang Xin left at that time, but they only retained their identities, but they were all officials in the local area. Bi Zisu was the one who actually presided over the Confucius and Mencius Knights. However, he was very restrained with the Knights and Mencius Knights and Mencius Knights and Mencius Knights and Mencius Knights and Mencius Knights and Mencius were not uncommon in the Confucius and Mencius Knights. The news he knew was that the Confucius and Mencius Knights were ready to part ways, and then went their separate ways. Those who were willing to resist went to Shaanxi, those who were willing to wait for disposal were left, and some wanted to go to Guangdong to find the emperor.

But he had never heard of it, and he had to travel to Fusang.

"Take Mr. Xuanyu with you, and take the position of Confucius to Dacheng Palace!"

Fang Kezhuang ignored him and directly greeted the knight behind him.

The latter immediately went to Dacheng Palace, and at this moment, Xie Qiguang had already walked out with Yan Shenggong in his arms, while the latter was still watching this scene in a daze...

"You guys let him go quickly. I want to see Bi Zisu, I want to see Wang Zhiyuan, you can't take Yan Shenggong away!"

Kong Shangtan was still screaming.

But nothing he said was useless. Under the threat of the guns of the entourages, the slaves of the Kong Mansion and the people of Qufu all watched curiously as Xie Qiguang stuffed Yan Shenggong into a carriage, and then the knights who went to Dacheng Hall walked out with a large box and put them on the carriage.

Kong Shangtan was still struggling, and Fang Kezhuang impatiently pushed the gun to his head.

Kong Shangtan was so scared that he immediately shut up.

"Mr. Xuanyu, you are right. We just don't have an order. Nurhaci's envoy is waiting for us in Jiaozhou. The Ming Dynasty has no place to stay. We will either be killed by Yang Feng or be killed by the tyrant. Since Nurhaci sincerely invites us, of course we will escape from the Ming Dynasty. But we cannot go to him empty-handedly. Yanshenggong is respected by Confucian scholars in the world. With him, Nurhaci can attract Confucian scholars of the Ming Dynasty to surrender. Therefore, we will bring Yanshenggong to him.

For the sake of Confucian Taoism, I felt aggrieved by Yan Shenggong.

Confucius once said that having religion is not different, so that Yan Shenggong could go to Japan to educate the barbarians, and Confucius would be relieved if he knew it.

Do Mr. Xuanyu understand?”

Fang Kezhuang said with a grin.

"Look, understand, there is no difference in teaching, no difference in teaching!"
