Chapter 508 The Empire is advancing(1/2)
Li Chengliang went south like this...
His Majesty the Emperor should continue to reuse them.
After all, they can indeed fight.
According to Yang Feng's reform, their Han slaves were released for the people, but a large part of the Li family were Jurchens and Mongolians, so they were still servants of the Li family, and of course they had to follow the Li family south.
So Li Chengliang still brought more than 3,000 cavalry to the south, which was ordered to go south, so Yang Feng would provide them with supplies along the way. After this cavalry went south, His Majesty the Emperor was also considered elite. The Liu family's subordinates led by Liu Jing, Zhao Shujiao and Qi Bingzhong, now Li Chengliang's Liaodong Iron Cavalry was added. They were blessed to serve the Zheng family in Vietnam together. At this time, Vietnam was still considered the Li Dynasty, but the Zheng family controlled the government affairs, but the Vietnamese boss recognized by the Ming Dynasty was the Mo family.
After Yongle's death in the Ming Dynasty, Xuande gave up Vietnam, but it was not Vietnam's independence since then.
Because there was the Mo family later.
The Mo family started their business by the Li Dynasty. After they started their business, they presented Vietnamese versions to the Ming Dynasty, which was considered to be a supporter to the Ming Dynasty and was named the commander of Annan by the Ming Dynasty. Although the Ming Dynasty still did not care about them, Vietnam under the Mo family ruled was no different from those chieftains in northern Myanmar.
The same status.
They are lower than those of North Korea's vassal kings.
The Li family was different from that before, they had the official title of King Annan.
The Li family is a vassal king.
Like the King of Korea, they were vassal kings who surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.
But the Mo family is different. Vietnam under the Mo family is a chieftain, and its status is no different from other messy chieftains in the Ming Dynasty. In other words, like Yang Yinglong and others, Annan Kingdom no longer exists. It is the Annan Commander of the Ming Dynasty, and it is under the Thirteen Xuanfu Envoys. It is a group of chieftains and then the Li family, the chieftain of the Li family.
Therefore, Vietnam generally does not mention this passage of the Mo family and regards it as a shame.
Later, a member of the Li family called himself the Li Dynasty, which was the Later Li Dynasty. He fought with the Mo family for many years until the Zheng family rose, controlled the Later Li Dynasty and defeated the Mo family and seized Hanoi again. Mo Jinggong fled north to ask for help from the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.
So His Majesty the Emperor sent troops.
There will be no suspense in this war.
The Mo family itself is not weak, and not long ago, there were even people in Hanoi who tried to be an internal force. The Zheng family only had tens of thousands of troops. Although they were firearms and their guns were also a bullet gun, they were not enough to see in front of His Majesty the Emperor's Imperial Camp. What's more, His Majesty the Emperor still had the power to control the sea, and Hoi'an and Nanyang Company's commercial strongholds. As long as they were not stupid enough to go south, they would basically be destroyed. His Majesty the Emperor obviously waited until the end of the rainy season. This season was the best time to go south. The main force of the Imperial Camp and the Guangxi Chief Army went south from Guangxi. The navy of the sea and Nanyang Company transported infantry to the coast. The Zheng family had no place to run in two attacks.
His Majesty the Emperor finally embarked on the road to expand territory and restore his ancestral property.
This is a good thing.
Just as His Majesty the Emperor conquered Annan, the war on the Korean battlefield continued, the main force of the Japanese army rushed straight to Seoul, and the Korean king fled north again.
But at this time the north is no longer his.
There was the Lelang Mansion of the Ming Dynasty. It was originally Li Chengliang's son Li Ruwu, but in fact he controlled the original Korean tyrants. When Li Chengliang went south, Li Ruwu would of course follow him, so the new Lelang prefect and politician was Cha Dashou.
He is in charge of Pyongyang.
There is now Pyongyang County, which belongs to Lelang Prefecture.
Li Jian fled to Pyongyang after all the cavalry he sent.
The Japanese army then captured Kaicheng.
In this way, they finally reached the border of Daming.
After receiving this news, Yang Xiangguo officially announced his personal expedition.
Liaohe River, Sancha River.
In the cold winter, the chariot led by eight horses slowly moved forward.
Because he was worried about crushing the ice layer on the river surface and the wheels were fixed on thick wooden boards, the heavy armored chariot was actually sliding. Yang Feng sat upright on the chariot with flags on both sides of the chariot. In the wind and snow behind him, there were endless cavalrymen, all wrapped in new military coats on the horse's back, relying on thick cotton and fur on the neck to preserve the heat of the body, and their leather mattresses on the horse's back. As for the weapons, they were the same, spears and cavalry swords, and two flintlock guns for each person. Although the flintlock guns in the entire army were indeed not able to be transformed, some elite flintlock guns were still fine.
The chariots crossed the Liao River smoothly.
"Welcome to the Prime Minister."
"Welcome to the Prime Minister!"
...
On the bank of the Liao River are a group of kneeling heads.
"Which is Jintaiji?"
Yang Feng said.
Among the kneeling heads, one of them quickly walked forward.
"The last one will welcome the prime minister."
He lay there and shouted.
"The imperial edict was that Yehe tribe was loyal to the Ming Dynasty and made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty's defense of Liaodong. He appointed the chief of Yehe tribe Jin Taiji as Xu Shun Gong and was given the surname Jin."
Yang Feng sat in the chariot and shouted in an imperial envoy.
"I thank God for your kindness!"
Jin Taiji bowed to the south very sensible to thank the emperor.
Then Yang Feng held up the iron coupon next to him and stood up and walked out of the chariot. Jin Taiji quickly raised his hands high. Yang Feng held the iron coupon and put it in his hand. Jin Taiji took it solemnly, holding Tianen who weighed several pounds, and thanked the Emperor Ming Dynasty again as if he was loyal. Yang Feng signaled him to retreat aside first, and then go back and sit down again.
"Which one is Buyanggu?"
He continued to shout.
Immediately afterwards, another city lord of Yehe Twin Cities stepped forward.
"The chief of Yehe's tribe Bu Yanggu was loyal to the Ming Dynasty and worked hard to serve as a country, and was granted the title of Shunning Marquis, and was given the surname Ye."
Yang Feng shouted.
Buyanggu quickly thanks.
Yang Feng walked down with the iron coupon again and gave him several pounds of favor.
Then there is Shulhazi.
He is an old friend of Yang Xiangguo. He has been loyal to Yang Xiangguo over the years. He gives away thousands of kilograms of ginseng every year, for fear that Yang Xiangguo will be poor, so he received the same treatment as Jin Taiji and was named Duke.
Then give the surname.
The surname Yang is given to him, the old brother, and the family!
In this way, the chiefs of various Jurchen tribes walked forward one by one, and then with excitement, they took several kilograms of grace from Yang Xiangguo. Moreover, their titles were different from those who are now real-world titles. They gave silver. A duke 1,000 taels of silver per year. Originally, the duke was 2,000 to 5,000 shi, and the silver was 1,000 taels, so now it is directly set to 1,000 taels, but the premise of giving them silver is that they have no real-world titles.
All under the world is the king's land.
This is the theoretical basis for the emperor to divide the fields in various places.
All under the world is the king's land, so as the emperor, he has the right to divide the land. Based on this theory, the four barbarians are also king's land. Unless they are real lands enfeoffed by the emperor, the lands of all people are king's land.
Of course, the same is true for these people.
The land they lived in had long been granted to the Liaodong princes, so they could either give them another fiefdom to allow them to move from now on, but this would definitely not work. After all, they lived there, so they changed it to giving money.
Then……
Continue to live on the land of the Liaodong princes.
The Jurchen tribes were soon awarded the titles, and then several solemn masters behind Yang Feng walked forward wearing yellow monk robes and strange hats on their heads...
"Several masters, I will leave this to several people for praying for the various Jurchen tribes. Xu Shun Gong, this is a monk specially invited by Yang for you. Your family will take a monk back with me. I will pay for them to build temples for them. As far as I know, most of you believe in Buddha, but you have always suffered from the fact that there are no monks in the past to promote Buddhism. In the future, if these monks are here, the Jurchen brothers can worship Buddha at all times."
Yang Feng said.
"The prime minister is truly kind."
Jin Taiji said with emotion.
After so many years, he finally met a Ming official who was sincerely good for them.
He was granted a title and given silver, but he actually built a temple.
It's so touching.
"Everyone, the Prime Minister is reincarnated in the Great Hei Tian, which is to promote Buddhism and protect mortals. Nowadays, all brothers on the grassland have temples. You can listen to Buddhism every day, both young and old, and you will be grateful to the Prime Minister. After the Prime Minister is building a temple on the grassland, it is naturally your turn. Now the Prime Minister is personally rushing to Korea, and you should also contribute to the Prime Minister."
The master in charge said.
"Prime Minister please rest assured. My Jurchen tribes only follow the orders of the Prime Minister!"
Jin Taiji said.
Then the other chiefs who were holding iron coupons made their statements one by one...
Even if Yang Feng didn't give them a title and build a temple, they had to follow him. In recent years, Li Chengliang had to take them with him in every battle. This time he was summoned here to welcome Yang Prime Minister, and they were just ready to accept the recruitment. But it was hard to say they were willing to do so. After all, the years of war caused their young and strong deaths, but they knew that they could not fight.
But now it's different.
Now I am truly willing to drive the predecessor of the prime minister.
"Okay, since that's the case, we will send troops to North Korea and wipe out the Japanese pirates. You will be rewarded with great rewards!"
Yang Feng said with satisfaction.
The bunch of dukes and maids holding the iron coupons immediately bowed down and obeyed.
That's all.
In fact, he brought a cavalry brigade.
To be continued...
