The Golden Knife King was hammered to death, or he himself was killed by hitting the angular sledgehammer of Tianba's younger brother, and the elites in the cottage were all taken down, and the remaining bandits could only go down the mountain and surrender when they saw this.

A once the largest bandit den in Huainan was destroyed like this, and the younger brother of Tianba ordered people to go up the mountain to search again, in addition to food and materials, and found a lot of gold and silver treasures.

Originally, he planned to collect troops and go to the next bandit village, but later thought that this cottage was good, and it was a pity to dismantle it, so he transported his belongings and gold and silver up the mountain again, and sent someone to contact Fengshenwei and let them take over.

As for the captured bandits, the younger brother of Tianba didn't plan to keep them, and he drugged their meals during the meal, which can be regarded as leaving them a whole corpse, and it can be regarded as fulfilling his promise when attacking the mountain.

This shows that Tianba's younger brother has ideas, several of them are not as good as Yang Shihu, and they are more loyal to Yang Huairen than the current emperor and the court.

Therefore, Yang Shihu destroyed the bandits' nest and handed over the captured bandits and seized property to the local government for disposal.

As for the looted property, a little bit of it was symbolically given to the local government, and then a part of it was taken out to reward the soldiers, and the rest was left on the mountain, as the private property of Fengshenwei.

Yang Huairen received the battle reports sent back by his brothers from all walks of life, and he saw this at a glance, and he was also a little helpless, in fact, he was not short of that money, but the brothers were still very pleased with him.

Looking prosperous in this era, in fact, in a position like Yang Huairen, he must think about leaving a way back for himself from time to time, and his brothers can worry about him, this is the reward he really gets from treating them sincerely.

It is by no means uncommon for a soldier to die as a confidant in these years, and Yang Huairen also felt the hearts of his brothers towards him.

With a good start, the plan of several armies to exterminate the bandits and water bandits will be easier to carry out, and after the suppression of Huainan, the south of the Yangtze River will be suppressed.

At present, the green forest world from Huainan to Jiangnan is full of rumors, and everyone is in danger.

Wherever the bandit army goes, it is to hang a handsome flag with the word "Yang" written on it first, and then the general flag with the surname of the leading general, so Jiangnan Green Forest began to talk about the change of Yang's color, whether it is a bandit cottage or a bandit gang, they have scattered and escaped.

For a time, Huainan and Jiangnan River cleared the road, so that the army of bandits became no bandits, everywhere they went were empty cottages, and they didn't even see a ghost, which made the generals who were fighting the bandits very unhappy, and they didn't do much yet, and the bandits ran away first.

The soldiers of Long Wuwei and Hu Benwei shouted that they hadn't had enough fun, and they all petitioned their own generals, I heard that there are still some pirates in the East China Sea who have not been exterminated, let's ask the prince to fight early, but don't let others take the lead.

At this time, there were pirates, and there were also pirates, but compared to a few hundred years later, it was still very few, and the shogunates of the Japanese kingdom were busy dividing the emperor in a wooden cage to divide his land, but anyone who had some ability wanted to make some money, and they didn't have time to go to the sea to be pirates.

Yang Huairen didn't directly agree, because the sea and the river are still different, although the dragon boat sitting now is large, but it is designed for canal transportation, and it is not necessarily easy to use at sea.

What's more, there are also Great Song Dynasty sailors along the coast, and they need to be contacted in order to formulate a plan to exterminate pirates.

……

It has been half a month since he left the capital, and Yang Huairen's big official ship has also arrived in Yangzhou, what he didn't expect was that Tong Guan had already come to Yangzhou to pick him up.

Why? The "three divisions" in the south of the Yangtze River are not in one place, the Caoyun Yamen that manages Caoyun is in Yangzhou, the city ship division that manages foreign trade is in Jiangyin, and the weaving bureau that manages weaving is in Suzhou.

Tong Guan felt from Suzhou to Yangzhou to greet Yang Huairen, in fact, it was easy to think of why.

Although Yang Huairen was in a hurry to go down to the south of the Yangtze River this time, the eunuchs who wanted to be the leaders of the three divisions had special news channels in the capital and the palace.

When Yang Huairen left Beijing, someone specially sent the news to them quickly, which was faster than the official document issued by the imperial court ordering Yang Huairen to inspect Jiangnan for the Qin mission, which gave several leaders and eunuchs time to prepare in advance.

Jiangnan is rich, whether it is an official or an errand in the palace, if you want to say that you are not greedy at all, it is impossible, it is just greedy for more and less, and how to get benefits.

There are no real big corrupt officials at the moment, when Zhao Zhixun, the prefect of Hangzhou, fell with the king of Nanyang County, and nearly 100 corrupt officials from all over the south of the Yangtze River were involved.

Besides, Yang Huairen is not here to rectify the rule of officials, no matter how big his ability is, he can't change the essential things, no matter how many corrupt officials and corrupt officials are arrested, he can only make the atmosphere clean for a year or two, and there is no need to do more useless work.

It is better to go your own way and fundamentally change the social atmosphere at that time.

Of course, if there is really something excessive, Yang Huairen thinks that he can catch a few typical ones, and it depends on which one of them hits the muzzle of the gun.

But there shouldn't be such a fool, the three chief eunuchs will definitely inform the local officials they know well when they get the news, remind them to be more restrained, and not to make Yang Daqin unhappy.

Tong Guan came to Yangzhou to greet Yang Huairen this time, it was a friendship, and now he is living a very nourishing life in Jiangnan, and he is not fighting for power, but sneaking to win some profits, it must be indispensable.

Yang Huairen's current status, in Tong Guan's heart, is a towering tree, at this time, I don't dare to go in to worship the porcelain under the door to make a real friendship, let alone when?

Therefore, Tong Guan prepared the gift early, and felt that Yangzhou came to welcome Yang Huairen.

Yangzhou is a big city, and it is also the largest port on the canal today, and it is natural that the Jiangnan Transshipment Division, that is, the Caoyun Yamen, is located here.

When Yang Huairen is on the road, he can choose not to stop the boat, and how long to stop, but at Yangzhou Wharf, he must dock, after all, his identity is Qincha, since he came to Jiangnan, it is impossible not to inspect Caoyun Yamen.

There are also a lot of local officials in Yangzhou, and Yang Huairen also needs to come forward to entertain.

The ship docked at the Yangzhou wharf, and dozens of dock workers stepped forward to help the official ship anchor, while Zhu Runqing, the prefect of Yangzhou, led hundreds of neatly dressed local officials to line up and bow down to greet them.

There were two other people standing in front of them, wearing crimson official robes, they were Zhao Xianqiu, the leader of the Caoyun Yamen, and Zhao Gonggong, the leader of the Caoyun Yamen, and Tong Guantong, the Gonggong of the weaving Yamen.
