Chapter 174 Fury
Although there is a reason for the incident, Zou Weiren obviously still doesn't understand what Yu Xiaotian's temper is. In Xiong Wencan's eyes, Yu Xiaotian is a smooth donkey. You must follow him so that he can do a good job for you. As soon as Zou Weili arrives, you stop Yu Xiaotian's military pay immediately. This is not equivalent to immediately. Stand on the opposite side of Yu Xiaotian and sing against Yu Xiaotian?
Who is Yu Xiaotian? That is the first sea master of the Ming Dynasty! This guy used to be a pirate, and he didn't have much majesty in his eyes. He was happy to work for you. If he was unhappy, this guy could do anything.
When Xiong Wencan learned the news, he was scared into a cold sweat. On the one hand, he wrote a letter to Yu Xiaotian to appease Yu Xiaotian. On the other hand, he directly wrote a bullet stamp and sent it to the capital to impeach Zou Weili, saying that Zou Weili did not know how to be sympathize with the soldiers and delayed the soldiers.
Throughout the Spring Festival, there was a mess between the government and the opposition, and there was nothing to say about it, but the overall favorable evaluation was not very beneficial to Xiaotian.
Zou Weiyan suffered such a big loss, of course, and would not give up. After thinking about it again and again, he still wrote a bullet stamp and impeached Yu Xiaotian, and this time he also wrote about the matter of Taiwan Island, saying that Yu Xiaotian privately sent someone to occupy Taiwan member island without authorization and control it as a thing in his private pocket, but refused to accept it. He entered the Ming territory and said that Yu Xiaotian supported himself and was unfaithful.
This bullet is a blockbuster. It was bombarded in the court after the Spring Festival. Nowadays, although many border generals have gradually formed warlord groups and have a tendency to support their own soldiers, these generals do not dare to be too arrogant on the surface.
However, like Yu Xiaotian, he controlled such a large Taiwanese island without permission, but did not classify Taiwanyuan Island in the territory of Daming, but regarded it as a private thing. This is not a trivial matter.
Chongzhen suddenly became furious as soon as he heard it. In his opinion, Yu Xiaotian was a general of the Ming army and ate the military rate of the Ming Dynasty. Since he occupied Taiwan Member Island, Taiwan Member Island should be the territory of Daming. He is not very clear about how big the Taiwan Member Island is, but ask the cabinet university scholars to check the relevant information. After that, they found that Taiwan Member Island was not small.
However, in the past, Taiwan Member Island was a place where Japanese pirates gathered. In the past years when Japanese pirates invaded, many pirates ran there to avoid the wind and regarded it as an old nest, which was very harmful to the Ming Dynasty.
Later, the red-haired man entered Penghu and occupied Penghu. During his tenure as the governor of Fujian, Nanjuyi once made a great deal to suppress the red-haired man and drove him out of Penghu. Later, it is said that the red-haired man retreated to the big man of Taiwan Yuan Island to open a port and build a city.
So how did Yu Xiaotian occupy Taiwan Member Island? So Chongzhen ordered people to investigate the matter and quickly inquired about the matter. It turned out that Yu Xiaotian could not be regarded as occupying all the Taiwan Member Island. Now Taiwan Member Island is not all occupied by Yu Xiaotian. Among them, the red-haired man still occupies Dayuan Port, and a sea owner named Yan Siqi also controlled a piece called Ben Hong Kong on Taiwan Member Island. The place.
Yu Xiaotian mainly controls the northernmost part of Taiyuan Island, where a freshwater city was built, and a Keelung Fort was built in a place called Jilang Bay. In addition, in recent years, he has also controlled a place called a dog port at the southern end of Taiyuan Island, but no one knows. In fact, Yu Xiaotian also built the whole Yilan The plain has emigrated tens of thousands and reclaimed a large amount of land. Now it has become the most important rice producing area of the Sea Wolf Group.
Chongzhen was quite angry about this matter and wanted to be punished by Yu Xiaotian. He dismissed him as the chief soldier of Yu Xiaotian and took him to the capital to be arrested. He really wanted to ask Yu Xiaotian if there was still the Ming court in his eyes and whether he was the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
Why did he control such a large territory on Taiyuan Island, but did not include it under the jurisdiction of Daming? In this way, at present, the territory controlled by Xiaotian has at least a few areas of Shangxian County, which is really not a small place. What disturbs him most is that according to the information collected, Yu Xiaotian has been continuously The land searched for immigrants and transferred them to Taiwan Member Island for resettlement.
Nowadays, no one can tell how many immigrants Yu Xiaotian has emigrated on Taiyuan Island. Some people say that the number is less than one million, but he doesn't believe this number. Some say tens of thousands, and some say hundreds of thousands to hundreds of thousands. Although the number cannot be counted, so many people are now out of the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty. , became a private citizen of Yu Xiaotian.
This is not a good thing for Daming. At the beginning, there were only thousands of Jiannu, and it soon developed into Daming's confidant under the leadership of the wild boar Pinurhachi. Over the past ten years, the whole Liaodong has occupied almost all, and the Jiannu army is still peeping at the customs.
Yu Xiaotian actually pulled so many people on Taiyuan Island. Although the specific number of people is not clear, there should be at least 100,000. If one day, Yu Xiaotian also wants to support his troops as the king, he may become the next slave.
Now a slave in the north has made Daming worry, and the hinterland of the Central Plains is still wrangling up with the civilian army, making several provinces of the Central Plains a miasma. If Yu Xiaotian also makes trouble in the south, the Ming army in the south can't control him at all with the fighting power of the generals under Xiaotian.
If things develop to this point, Chongzhen will think of this and dare not think about it down. If it really develops to this point, I'm afraid that Daming will really die in his hands.
Originally, Chongzhen was still angry and planned to arrest Xiaotian and send him to Beijing, but after thinking about this, Chongzhen immediately hesitated.
Because he dares not do so now. Yu Xiaotian is not a literary minister. He can be arrested and killed if he kills. This guy is a general with heavy soldiers, and through Denglai's rebellion, he can also see that Yu Xiaotian is a tough general, and his soldiers and horses are well equipped and quite good at fighting. Denglai rebels are in Before their front, they could be said to be vulnerable, and in just a few months, they wiped out the rebels.
It can be seen that the generals under Xiaotian are indeed quite good at fighting, and Yu Xiaotian is in Fujian, and now controls more than 20,000 mainland divisions and more than 10,000 sailors.
This is an army of 30,000 to 40,000 troops, all of whom listen to the dispatch of Yu Xiaotian. In case he wants to capture Yu Xiaotian and rebel if Yu Xiaotian is not convinced, then Fujian can be said to be taken away by Yu Xiaotian in an instant. I'm afraid that his troops and horses can sweep the whole south in a short time.
So it is too late to find that Yu Xiaotian has a strong tail. Now it can be said that Yu Xiaotian has become a situation, and it is very difficult to control him again.
If he wants to cut off this confidant's trouble now, it is equivalent to forcing Yu Xiaotian to rebel, so he dares not think about asking Xiaotian again.
So he quickly summoned his confidant minister to discuss countermeasures, and finally discussed it for a long time, and the result was the same. At this time, he must not be moved by filial piety. In that case, the consequences would be very serious. Daming absolutely could not afford it now, and the south was also in chaos.
Chongzhen discussed and came up with such a result. He was very helpless and depressed. At this time, he began to hate Xiong Wencan, because he knew that Yu Xiaotian was recruited by Xiong Wencan, and over the years, Xiong Wencan has always protected Yu Xiaotian, which made Yu Xiaotian so big, so Xiong Wencan should be responsible for this matter.
As for how to deal with Yu Xiaotian, the ministers discussed for a long time, and finally they could only choose to appease Yu Xiaotian as much as possible without forcing him too tightly. At least now Yu Xiaotian has no intention of rebelling. Some time ago, he was ordered to lead troops north to destroy the rebels for the imperial court.
Although he did not know why, Kong Youde led the remnants of the rebels to escape into the sea and disappeared. Some people said that after Kong Youde entered the sea, he encountered a hurricane and caused his whole army to be destroyed. However, no one can deny that Yu Xiaotian played an extremely important role in this battle. Zhu Dadian has repeatedly submitted to the court. Among them, they were all affirmed, including Gao Qiqian, which also confirmed that Yu Xiaotian worked very hard this time.
Therefore, from various circumstances, Yu Xiaotian has no sign of rebellion now. As for the fact that he occupies a large area of land on Taiyuan Island and is not included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the ministers analyzed that Yu Xiaotian may have left a backhand.
And from the collected news, Yu Xiaotian had occupied freshwater chicken cages and other places on Taiwan Yuan Island long before he was touched. It can't be said that Yu Xiaotian has a disrespectful heart.
And according to people who know Yu Xiaotian, Yu Xiaotian is extremely greedy for money and does sea trade in private, which really makes a lot of money. It is estimated that he also wants to treat Taiwan Yuan Island as his private land and earn more money.
I heard that Yu Xiaotian was extremely greedy for money, but Chongzhen was relieved. Because it has been said that since ancient times, Wen does not love wealth and martial arts and is not afraid of death. This civilian official should not be greedy for money, but as long as the generals are greedy for money, it means that they have no ambition. Over the ages, the emperor has turned a blind eye to the generals love of money. He Their love for money shows that they have no other ideas. If the generals don't love money, then the matter will be very serious.
So Chongzhen heard someone say that Yu Xiaotian was extremely greedy for money, and he was relieved. He thought that Yu Xiaotian should not have a sense of independence. Such a person, as long as he is well encircled, can always be used by the court. As long as he is willing to work hard for the court, then let him be greedy for some money, he will be greedy!
During this period, Xiong Wencan repeatedly submitted a series of reports, asking the court to order Yu Xiaotian to lead the sailors south to calm down the sea pirates in the two Guangzhou and one area. After discussing, the ministers believed that this was an opportunity to test Yu Xiaotian. They might as well order Yu Xiaotian to go south to calm the bandits on the two Guangzhou Seas. If Yu Xiaotian is still willing to do so this time Go, that means he is still willing to use it for the court.
