Chapter 291: United Dongjiang Town
Ten days later, Jin Sheng and Huang Long Lezizi returned, and more than 40 ships loaded more than 40,000 stones of grain.
They were also poor and afraid, they wanted everything, even people's beds, altars and jars were loaded and shipped back, and chickens, ducks, geese, pigs and sheep were also swept away by them.
This time, the Dongjiang soldiers and the Denglai men launched a surprise attack to raid the house, and the Shen family was defenseless.
Shenjiabao is equivalent to an independent small city where clan armed forces are entrenched, with a population of seven or eight thousand, and three or four hundred strong men of the clan are armed with knives and guns.
Jin Sheng made a plan to take Shen Jiabao, he wore the regular clothes of the six civil officials, and took his four family members and the twenty-four family members selected by Huang Long to take the lead in coming to Shen Jiabao to hand over the famous thorn to visit the Shen family.
It is reasonable for the new civil officials to visit the local heroes, and it is not surprising that there are twenty or thirty family members, and the civil officials and military generals who come to Shenjiabao every year to fight the autumn breeze do not know how many, and the master of the Shen family does not doubt that he has him, and politely invites Jin Sheng and his party to enter Shenjiabao.
The scouts who followed Jin Sheng saw that the prison army had successfully entered, and immediately went back to report the results, Zhang Tao and Huang Long, the two generals, and it didn't take long for the Ming army of about 3,000 to run and advance to surround Shenjiabao.
The result is self-evident, under the sudden incident of being cohesive from the inside and outside, Shenjiabao was lost in an instant.
The militias did not dare to openly confront the imperial army, and laid down their arms and surrendered when there was no city to rely on, so they took the private fortress with little casualties.
Thunderbolt was not able to hide his ears, and the Shen clan was completely defenseless and was taken away from the lair that had been run by several generations.
The food and gold and silver treasures hoarded in the fort did not have time to be transferred at all, so Huang Long and Zhang Tao reaped a rich harvest.
Not only did they get grain, but in addition to the 20,000 stone wheat and more than 20,000 taels of silver that they were going to hand over to the imperial court, Huang Long and Jin Sheng also received 60,000 or 70,000 taels of precious metals, and the furniture, cloth, cotton clothes, and quilts that were shipped back were also worth a lot of money.
The private fortress of the Shen family in Laizhou is more than 20 miles away from Laizhou City, if it is not confiscated by the Ming army led by Huanglong this time, it will also be looted when Kong Youde is a disaster to Lai, but I don't know if the Wuqiao Mutiny in history is still the same.
Huang Long, who didn't want to eat alone, discussed with Jin Sheng and decided to give Huang Han the benefit of 20,000 taels of silver.
How could Huang Han ask Dongjiang Town to give out money, he politely rejected Huang Long and Jin Sheng's kindness, and reminded them that it was best to distribute food and salary to calm the hearts of the army.
Huang Long now knows that fighting local tyrants is a shortcut to making a fortune, and finally understands why Huang Han has money to feed elite soldiers, and when he sees that Huang Han insists on not sharing the benefits given to him, he will give up. He was not stupid to know that nine times out of ten, the Shen family's smuggling boat was swallowed by Huang Han.
Huang Long, who made a small fortune, was full of confidence, and there were a lot of chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep, and he invited Huang Han to a banquet in the General Military Mansion, which had been simply restored, which was also regarded as a reception for the new official's supervisor, Yu Shi Jinsheng.
Huang Han and Huang Long, as well as Shen Shikui, Li Weiluan, Shang Kexi and other generals who had just brought troops over, talked about their plans after the third round.
Huang Handao "The generals have been wronged over the years, and the life of the soldiers and civilians under their command is also quite difficult, and this official knows that all the Yizhou Tuntian in Dongjiang Town has been lost, and it is impossible to recover in the short term."
The fact that there are too many soldiers and civilians on the island who need to eat has become a heavy burden on the generals, and this officer thinks that instead of shipping grain all the way to the island, it is better to let the soldiers and civilians eat food nearby
The saved capacity alone can be used to transport timber to Funing for sale, and a lot of grain money can be earned. ”
The generals present here are all calculating in their hearts, no one is a fool, and the profits from timber trafficking can be geometrically smuggled grain, leather goods, and Korean ginseng is the first choice.
Adjutant General Shen Shikui is the in-law of Mao Wenlong, the former chief military officer of Dongjiang Town, who died unjustly, and became the chief military officer after the death of Huang Long, the chief military officer of Dongjiang Town, who succeeded Mao Wenlong.
In the end, the army was defeated and lost the base camp Phi Island and retreated to Shicheng Island, Chongzhen ten years in June Jiannu broke through Shicheng Island, Shen Shikui was captured and only asked for a death, which can be regarded as a Ming martyr with a long integrity.
The moment when Shen Shikui sacrificed his life for the country meant that Dongjiang Town withdrew from the stage of history, and finally even Phi Island, the base camp of Dongjiang Town, became an inherent territory of a foreign country.
There are too many deputy generals, generals, guerrillas, and capitals in Dongjiang Town, most of them are worthless positions given by Mao Wenlong during the period, although Shen Shikui is a deputy general, the Yongping general who was personally appointed by the emperor of Huang Han in terms of territory and troops is not the same.
He was interested in Huang Han's words, and asked with his hand, "Lord Huang, there are also many people in the former Yizhou under the command of this official, and it is really difficult to give them a bite to eat now, I don't know what the regulations of eating food nearby are mentioned by adults."
The rest of the generals who were guarding the islands were also worried about the serious shortage of food on the islands, and they all looked at Huang Han with blazing eyes at this time.
Huang Han said very sincerely: "This official proposes that Dongjiang Town and Yongping Reinforcement Camp communicate with each other and establish a good friendly relationship, there are few people in Funing Weidi, and there are many people in Dongjiang Town without land, why don't you settle the soldiers and civilians under your command and their families to go to Funing to beg for a living."
The official dared to pack a ticket, as long as he went to Funingwei, everyone would be well fed and clothed, and even those who had lost their labor force could be guaranteed two meals a day and a warm place to live in winter. ”
The soldiers of the "Red Banner Army" are all red and bright, and their clothes and armor are bright, compared with most of the Dongjiang soldiers who are dressed like flowers, they are like heaven and earth.
The territory run by Funingwei was willing to accept the military and civilians of Dongjiang Town, and the generals such as Huanglong Monk Kexi and Shen Shikui certainly had no reason to oppose it.
Jin Sheng, the superintendent of the army, was familiar with Huang Han Anmin's ability, and saw how he disliked the acceptance of the military and civilians of Dongjiang Town
He came to Phi Dao to supervise the army for several purposes, in addition to waiting for an opportunity to recover the lost territory, that is, to eliminate redundant troops, rejuvenate Tuntian, and strive to restore the elite soldiers of Dongjiang Town.
Now it seems that Dongjiang Town is in a crisis, and the revival of Tuntian may be far away, and the top priority at the moment is to be realistic, and it is important to solve the problem of feeding the military and the people first.
Jin Sheng immediately said: "General Huang is willing to accept the soldiers and civilians of Dongjiang Town, and in the future, the general soldiers and generals will be able to kill the enemy without being dragged down." I will do my best to support it. ”
The supervision of the imperial history is only seven products, and Jin Sheng has the title of the six-product historian of the Hanlin Academy, but this is already the largest civil official in the Dongjiang Town system at this time.
Huang Long saw that Jin Sheng promised that he would naturally not object, and also promised: "Lord Huang is famous, and it is their blessing that the military and civilians of Dongjiang Town can go to Funing Weituntian to work, and this official will definitely handle this matter as soon as possible." ”
The two armies reached an agreement immediately, and Jin Sheng, who was born as a jinshi, liked to dance and write, and he also asked the commanders of the two armies to sign a memorandum written by him.
