Chapter 535: Nanjing City Opens

Ma Shiying's young wife and children arrived in Shanyang, Huai'an Prefecture six days ago. According to the prior agreement, this was the signal of the attack.

Now the team of Ma Shiying, the Minister of War, is placed by the river to resist the strategy of crossing the river by General Ma Gang of Pingnan. Since he was brought with him, he must have to let him enter the city. Ma Shiying's team also entered the city and guarded the two city gates according to the rules.

The city gate is in hand, which means calmness in advance and retreat, which is also considered a authority. Basically, the eunuch Lu Jiude, the eunuch in Nanjing, and the Xu family in Nanjing, guarding the Wei Duke.

The current Minister of War of Nanjing Ma Shiying is the first official in Nanjing to express his kindness to Li Meng. This person is also a talented person and has already understood the future situation a long time ago.

This is why he went to Nanjing City to be the Minister of War, and Ruan Dacheng desperately clamored for the fate of King Tianming in the city. Some things are untrue, such as opening the door to offer the city, at least what certificates should be taken to do, such as sending all his wife and children.

General Ma Gang of Pingnan had already prepared the offensive to cross the river, and even arranged for spies through ships traveling from north to south to explore all the areas suitable for gunfire on the riverside.

This is the most absurd thing about the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty, because the existence of this court is basically supported by the Jiangnan tribes, so it naturally cannot affect the income and property of these tribes.

The business in Jiangnan and northern Zhili, Shaanxi, Jiangnan and the two Huaihe Rivers, Jiangnan and Shandong has been extremely prosperous, and such a way of wealth must not be cut off.

It is obvious that Jiangbei is a great enemy and has to cross the river to fight at any time, but the ships passing by never stopped. Jiangnan is a group of forces and groups of people who work independently, and the news from the north cannot be found out. They are weak and even if they know the news, it is useless. However, the news from the south is all known by Jiaozhou.

There are many things that Jiaozhou Camp has no intention of knowing, but some people who have taken the initiative to make good relationships come over and tell that there is no secret to the north.

According to the prior agreement, after Ma Shiying sent his family as hostages, the crossing of the river can begin. At this time, Ma Gang was preparing in Jiangdu, Yangzhou Prefecture, and the road was expedited. It was estimated that the battle had been going on for two days, and it might be a result today.

There is no suspense about whether Nanjing can be captured. For everyone in Jinan, it is just when to launch and when it will end.

So when Yuan Wenhong, the sponsor of the Secretary-General, saw the military newspaper sent by Ma Gang, his first reaction was to congratulate him. Li Meng opened his eyes and had a smile on his face. Yuan Wenhong struck while the iron was hot and said:

"Prince, think about this time, news of entering the city tomorrow will come. It is difficult for the world to turn the tables!"

Li Meng nodded, tapped the seat next to him with his hand, and said in a deep voice:

"Lu Jiude's attitude has always been ambiguous. If Liu Yuanbin wrote another letter to him, Liu Liangzuo had long been surrendering. His military discipline was extremely poor. He told Ma Gang to strictly control it. Huang Degong was so stubborn that if Zhu Cilang was controlled, Zhu Cilang would persuade him."

Yuan Wenhong made quick records there, Li Meng could tell you as he thought:

"There is as much as possible to avoid street fighting in Nanjing City. You can let go of the words. If any Ming general resists, causing street fighting, destroying the nine clans, and the entire army will be slaves, and the original officials will not move for the time being. Ma Gang must strictly enforce the military discipline of the soldiers and not bully the people."

In such a prosperous and prosperous place in Jiangnan, it is best to cultivate a goose that continues to lay golden eggs for yourself, because it is not worth the damage caused by the war.

"If Zhu Cilang doesn't make a fool of himself, he will settle it. He will be a rich man for the rest of his life. The Zhu family may not feel it is a blessing for so long. Liu Zongzhou also has a group of literati, so he just needs to look at others. He doesn't have to worry about anything else, and it will not cause any storm. The nobles led by Duke of Wei will be arranged according to the arrangements in the Northern Zhili side, but the family army must be adapted and cannot be retained privately. If the noble children still want to join the army, arrange a boat to Shandong and have their own place to settle it!"

The figures and literati in Nanjing were still quite brilliant. Many civil officials in the capital were either demoted or resigned from office in the last few years of Chongzhen, and they returned to the south.

How many of these are sad and despair about the government, and how many of them feel that the capital is not safe and they can't explain clearly if they want to go back to their hometown to take refuge.

However, after the establishment of the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty, these "loyal and righteous people" gathered together and wanted to obtain an official position in the court. Among them, Liu Zongzhou was a master of learning, a straightforward and famous minister, and a position as a chief minister, and was hard to say about other people.

According to Li Meng's estimate, although everyone in Nanjing was guessing who opened the city to surrender, Ma Shiying's actions would definitely make them feel very sudden, and even one of them could not escape. These scholars from various parties did not have the ability to govern the country and pacify the world, but they could do everything in full swing, such as dying for the country, crying for the world, and using the style of Shandong, if they could pass it, they would probably kill people.

These civil officials who were not harmful had all had a relationship with the wealthy families in Jiangnan. After killing them, they were still a little troublesome. It would be better to keep them, which would be considered as decorating peace.

Anyway, when the literati open their mouths, the soldiers will be honest with each other with swords and scare them, but the noble generals in Nanjing are a bit different from those in the capital.

The nobles in the capital have long become waste. Nanjing City has always been the eunuch of Nanjing's garrison, the Minister of War, and the Nanjing garrison. Nanjing garrison is the hereditary of the Xu family of Wei Duke. There are more than 500 family generals and two or three thousand personal soldiers. They have to practice regularly to maintain this position.

In addition, among the military positions held by a series of nobles around Nanjing, some soldiers were trained, which is a bit strange. The northern part is martial, but the nobles in the capital are addicted to pleasure, the luxury of the Jiangnan, and the Xu family and a group of nobles still have some martial habits and customs.

Of course, these so-called powerful soldiers are the slightly stronger Ming army, which are completely no match for the Jiaozhou camp troops. If these noble and noble generals with martial spirit do not surrender, they will naturally kill them quickly. However, when selling land, the enthusiasm of these noble and military generals in Nanjing City is not inferior at all. It is estimated that a large number of people surrender without fighting. Staying in Nanjing City and Jiangnan is an uneasy factor.

If you place these noble children, it would be better to serve in the army in Jinan City and brainwash and cultivate them in the Jiaozhou Camp system, and you will definitely become a useful talent in Shandong.

After Yuan Wenhong finished writing on the carriage, he took out a special official paper from the secret wall below the seat, copied it in a standard format, and handed it to Li Meng and read it again.

"After returning home, quickly form official documents. Then come to me and take a look. After using the seal, I will send them out today!"

Yuan Wenhong quickly agreed. The offensive had already been launched in the south, so Li Meng naturally would not go to the military camp outside the city, so he ordered the emperor to turn around and prepare to return to the Qi Prince's Mansion.

After arriving at the mansion, Yuan Wenhong summoned the secretary's clerk's clerk to do official duties assigned by Li Meng, but the official documents from Shaanxi were sent to the mansion.

There were some twists and turns in the pacification of Shaanxi. To the west of Zhangye, there were many local tyrants, all of which were local tyrants. Many of them were not Han people, but were considered local chieftains. In front of the Ming Dynasty, they colluded with the Western Mongolia and tribes of the Western Regions to become their local emperors.

Shaanxi General Zhao Neng sent troops there. These frogs in the well knew the pros and cons, sent troops to harass, plunder military funds, and even killed the village heads and households of the military farms set up. They had no choice but to kill them all, and these local tyrants were dispersed and broken into pieces.

This gave Shaanxi General Zhao Neng a headache, but it was not a problem that could not be solved. It was nothing more than a firm wall and clearing the field and killing it slowly. This time the military newspaper was just a routine official business, and hello.

When he returned to the palace, he met with the new Jinan prefect Su Anqi. Su Anqi is an acquaintance in the palace of Qi. Now he is the prefect and always follows the rules when doing things.

Li Meng was just looking at his nephew's attitude, so he hurriedly sent him in. After coming in, he kowtowed and greeted him according to the rules of the past. Su Anqi was in the position of Jinan prefect, and such a young man actually sat at such a high position and had no experience. Many people were waiting to see jokes.

Who would have thought that in his position, the prefect Su seemed to be an old official who had been familiar with him for many years. Moreover, because he was from the Jiaozhouying line, he formulated systems and did things quickly and accurately. Sun Chuanting and the sponsors of each department praised him. It was not accidental to say that this was not accidental.

He has experienced various yamen and followed the scholars of senior officials at all levels. He has also seen and learned the methods and experiences of handling matters. He is really familiar with the affairs of the prefect.

"Have you ever seen Father Federer? His church has been built recently. How busy is it?"

The white craftsmen who came to Shandong and some of the Zheng family in Fujian believed in foreign religions. Father Federer finally found a missionary target. He had no worries about money and was familiar with people. The church was quickly established, but the door was relatively neglected. No one came from the Jiaozhou Camp system.

"Thank you for your care. Master Fei is happy to live. He is busy with the church every day and goes to the public school to teach classes. It is very fulfilling. This time I came here to talk to the prince about someone Jing who was locked in the prison of the prefectural yamen."

"Oh? That Nestor Nestor, what do you think? Let's hear it!"

Su Anqi bowed in an old aura, and then said in a deep voice:

"Your Majesty, I think that this person is still a bit talented. He is a disaster for us Han people. If he is sent to harm others..."
