454 [Prepare to clean up Cai Yu]
Wang Yuan led his men into the city, and Ling Xiang led the team to wait. The two met and smiled.
Ling Xiang bowed and said, "Zheng Zhengzheng used troops like a god, and I admire him."
Wang Yuan bowed and said, "Ling Jieqing is still in trouble in the face of danger, which is admirable."
"I dare not be called the title of "Jiu", I am just a minister of Taipu Temple." Ling Xiang said modestly.
"王" is homophone for "王". King Mu of Zhou once appointed Bo Ji as Taipu Zheng, so the Taipu Temple Minister in later generations was called "王机".
The two of them have the same official qualities and cooperated tacitly from time to time. At this time, they naturally had a good conversation.
When he talked all the way to the Yuanma Temple official residence, Wang Yuan was surprised to learn that Ling Xiang made his fortune by suppressing bandits. Those chaotic troops did not take Ling seriously, and he deserved it by this guy to death.
When Wang Yangming was suppressing bandits in Jiangxi, Ling Xiang happened to be the assistant chief of Guangdong's military service. He brought troops to southern Gannan to cooperate with the bandit suppression. He fought in southern Gannan for several years. Those bandits were much harder to deal with than the Liaodong rebels. This man was less than fifty years old this year, but he was a relatively old prime minister, and his temples were a little white, which was not the "old man" mentioned by Gao Hang.
After this experience, the relationship became more harmonious. Wang Yuan smiled and said, "It turns out that Ling Jieqing is the old man of Duke Yangming, and we are also considered our own family."
Ling Xiang laughed: "I not only followed Yangming Gong to suppress bandits, but also worked with Yushi Gu. He was a very knowledgeable math. He heard that it was passed down from Wang Zhengzhi, so I also studied Wang Zheng's new math."
Gu Jingshi was Gu Yingxiang and Wang Yangming's disciple. When he was an official in Beijing, he had a good relationship with Wang Yuan and helped Wang Yuan create a physics laboratory at home.
At that time, Gu Yingxiang was in charge of the Jinyiwei, and the procedures for the Jinyiwei of Song Ling'er were handled by Gu Yingxiang himself. Later, Gu Yingxiang was transferred to serve as the deputy inspector of Guangdong and Lingdong Road, and went to southern Jiangxi with Ling Xiang, the Guangdong military officer, to suppress bandits.
Now, Gu Yingxiang is the deputy envoy of Guangxi Censor and a fourth-rank civil servant.
Since Ling Xiang has followed Wang Yangming to suppress bandits for several years and has had a close relationship with Gu Yingxiang, he is really a family with Wang Yuan.
After talking for a long time, Wang Yuan asked the important matter: "How many pastures are there in Yuanma Temple in Liaodong?"
Ling Xiang sighed and said, "Oh, the whole of Liaodong, the sixth supervisory and twenty-four gardens, only more than 2,000 acres of ranch remain. My Yuanma Temple Minister only dares to measure the ranch quietly and not do any other actions. It is because the Wang Zheng has the courage to take back the ranch as soon as he comes, without any concern for any reaction."
"The Liaodong military officer is so brave." Wang Yuan laughed in anger.
Not to mention the entire Liaodong, there are thousands of hectares of pastures on paper in the four gardens of Yongning alone. One hectares are equal to one hundred acres, and thousands of hectares are hundreds of thousands of acres, but they are occupied to only two thousand acres. The pastures in Fuzhou are the largest among the four gardens of southern Liaoning. No wonder Cai Yu secretly instructed a mutiny.
Moreover, Cai Yu alone must not be able to eat so much. I guess there are all senior military officers in Fuzhou.
Ling Xiang asked: "What does General Wang plan to deal with it?"
Wang Yuan asked back: "Does Ling Jieqing want to restore the ranch?"
"Of course I want to," Ling Xiang stood up suddenly, "I am a Liaodong Yuanmasiqing, and I can only take charge of a mere two thousand acres of pastures. I feel so cowardly that I can't sleep well."
"That's enough, let's take action against Cai Yu!" Wang Yuan said with a smile.
Ling Xiang reminded: "This time is just a small fight, and most of the perpetrators are tenant farmermen. If they want to deal with Cai Yu, it may lead to a real mutiny. At that time, with the power of the Wang General System, it will probably be difficult to pacify without tens of thousands of soldiers."
"Then you will be smart." Wang Yuan did not just make a tough move.
Ling Xiang asked, "How to get ahead of his wisdom?"
Wang Yuan whispered: "...so like this."
After hearing this, Ling Xiang resisted the urge to roll his eyes: "Are you trying to get ahead of your wit?"
Wang Yuan smiled and said, "No need to fight, it is just a wise move."
...
Wang Yuan released all the military households involved in the mutiny, allowing them to go back and work hard on spring plowing.
However, there were 30,000 acres of pastures, and Wang Yuan did not allow them to farm. Most of the military households who just plowed the 30,000 acres of land were thrown to Gaizhou (it happened to be short of people in Gaizhou), and each person could be assigned to the corresponding land, and they would belong to them after three years of cultivation.
Wang Yuan plans to restore these 30,000 acres of land into a pasture and let someone get pasture seeds to sow.
It is impossible to restore them all at once. First, it is difficult to resettle the military households in tenant farming, and second, there are not so many horses to raise. Even if there are 30,000 acres of military horses, the court has to transfer some of them and then spend money to buy some from North Korea.
Seeing his own fertile land and being sent by Wang Yuan to plant grass, the senior military officers in Fuzhou felt so hatred.
So, the impeachment memorial was issued again, suing Wang Yuan forcibly escorting the military households in Fuzhou to Gaizhou for farming. This behavior of crossing the border was to undermine the court's regulations.
How could Wang Yuan leave a handle for them?
While moving to the military households in Fuzhou, Wang Yuan had already submitted a memorial to the court, saying that these were rebels who participated in the mutiny and could not directly kill the evil, nor could they stay in the original garrison, so they would not connect with the mutiny again, so they decided to escort some to Gaizhou.
When these memorials were sent to the capital, the garrisons from all over the country sent troops - they were finally ready to lead troops to help Governor Wang suppress the mutiny.
As for the mutiny that has been resolved by Wang Yuan, they "don't know".
Alas, I'm late, I'm sorry.
The commander of Fuzhou, Cai Yu, was late, and this guy sent the most troops, bringing 3,000 regular soldiers and 5,000 auxiliary soldiers. From Fuzhou City to Yongning Supervisory City, it was only a few dozen miles away. Cai Yu walked for half a month, and then stationed his troops in a pasture that had become arable land, urging the tenants to plant food on the pasture.
That land happened to belong to the 30,000 acres of pasture that Wang Yuan planned to restore. That is, on the shore of the Bayi Reservoir in Yongning Town, Wafangdian City, later generations, although there was no reservoir at this time, there was a small natural lake. As long as the forage is restored and adjacent to the lake, it is a good place to raise horses.
Cai Yu was stationed there for several days, but he couldn't sit still and called his confidant to ask, "Wang Er didn't respond?"
"Without any action, all the horse-raising officials here have been removed." The confidant replied.
Cai Yu smiled and said, "He is still cognizable. If he wants to restore the ranch, he will restore him to 10,000 acres, which is also a bit of face. If he really wants to take it back, he will offend the generals in Fuzhou. If he really makes trouble, he will not be able to take it all!"
Almost all previous emperors ordered the reclaiming of the ranch in Fuzhou.
But no matter how awesome the minister came, it was already the limit to restore tens of thousands of acres. The pressure on the local area was too great, so we could only compromise with each other. At most, we went to Gaizhou and Jinzhou to restore a few thousand acres.
Historically, wars were often fought during the Jiajing period, and the court was extremely short of war horses. The emperor issued a death order to restore the ranch. What should we do?
At that time, Zhang Yang, the Minister of Ma Temple in Yuandong, dared not turn against the commander of Fuzhou Guard, nor did he dare to disobey Jiajing's orders, so he could only send people to investigate the situation everywhere. Finally, in Xuancheng Guard (Donggang City), which was vast and sparsely populated, he found that there were several mountains suitable for grazing, and directly built a new pasture covering an area of 150,000 acres.
Jiajing was too difficult at that time, and war horses were already related to the safety of the country, so the central court was completely ruthless.
The new ranch was not enough to provide military and horses, so the Yuanma Temple and Xing Taipu Temple were separated again. The Yuanma Temple was also in charge of the military and civilians of the three guards of Gaizhou, Fuzhou and Jinzhou, and took away the administrative power of the commander of the three guards. The Xing Taipu Temple was moved to Xuancheng Guard and took away the administrative power of the commander of the Xuancheng Guard.
Jiajing has achieved this point, and the commanders of the four guards have not stopped. So Jiajing has set up a military officer in southern Liaoning, taking away part of the military power of the four guards!
After Jiajing's death, the Liaodong horse government was deteriorated again... and from then on, it was completely deteriorated. Not only did Liaodong not be able to supply military horses to the court, but he instead asked the court for silver to buy war horses. This increased income for Liaodong military officers, and bought horse silver at tens of thousands of taels, which could be corruption.
Before Cai Yu, Wang Yuan surrendered and was about to withdraw his troops, but suddenly he received an invitation.
Governor Wang’s birthday party at the age of 28 was asked by the officers of various garrisons who had arrived late to withdraw their troops and go home in a hurry, and all went to Yongning City to attend the birthday party.
"Brother Cai, you can't go, this guy must be unhappy!" Commander Sun Heqian advised.
Cai Yu sneered: "I'm not stupid, can I come back after I go? Let's go to the banquet for me, and I said that my chronic disease relapsed and I couldn't move in the military camp."
As long as he does not leave his army, Wang Yuan will be worried about another mutiny in Fuzhou!
