Chapter 1176: Haihan's Request
Since Hangzhou was captured by the Ming army in 1366, after the Hangzhou Road in the Yuan Dynasty was changed to Hangzhou Mansion, during the reign of the Ming Dynasty, this important town in the south of the Yangtze River has not experienced large-scale wars. Even if the Qing army reached Hangzhou in 1645, and Zhu Changshu, the then superintendent of the Ming Dynasty, chose to surrender directly, the city was still not touched by the war, and the Ming Dynasty was considered a peaceful and blessed land - of course, this possibility could only be realized if the Haihan did not come to this time and space.
In such a historical environment, the Haihan army came to the city at the beginning of the eighth year of Chongzhen, and the panic and chaos caused by it were also unprecedented since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. After discovering the arrival of the Haihan fleet, most of the people who originally lived outside the city immediately packed up their belongings and poured into the city for refuge. As a result, all the inns and hotels in Hangzhou were full overnight, and a large number of refugees still slept on the streets because they could not find temporary accommodation.
In order to prevent people from freezing to death on the streets, the government has also devised many ways to resettle the refugees, mobilizing urban residents to open their homes to resettle the refugees, or donating some bedding, and on the other hand, arranging many charcoal pots on the streets for the refugees to warm themselves, and distributing a large number of ginger soup and hot porridge to ensure that the refugees can have enough physical strength to survive the cold winter nights. At the same time, the garrison and officials in the city also stepped up patrols to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the chaos in the city. But such a method can only be emergency, if Haihan does not retreat, the chaos in the city will only intensify.
At this time, in the yamen of the political envoy department, He Guanzhi, the prefect of Hangzhou, was reporting to Wang Ji, the political envoy of Zhejiang, and Liu Feng, the commander of the capital, on the resettlement of refugees. Hangzhou was originally the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River, and the surrounding areas are also rich in products, but what is most lacking in the city now is not all kinds of daily necessities, but places to settle these refugees.
"There are still thousands of refugees in the city who have nowhere to resettle, what are your ideas?" After listening to He Guanzhi's report, Wang Ji solicited opinions from everyone present. Almost all the civil and military officials above the fifth rank in the city have already arrived, and it can be regarded as a rare official meeting in recent times.
Zeng Sheng, the prefect of the same prefecture, said: "The lower officials think that too many refugees will inevitably occupy the main transportation routes in the city, and they will consume a lot of materials every day to rescue, which is not conducive to defending the city." The Haihan army had limited strength and was unable to encircle the city of Hangzhou, so it was better to arrange for the people to evacuate to the north and west of the city, and the counties of Deqing, Wukang, Yuhang, and Lin'an could divert the refugees, which was much better than squeezing them all in the city. ”
Wang Yuan, the general judge, immediately raised his voice and objected: "Hangzhou City cannot be resettled, and it can be solved when we get to the county seat?" Lord Zeng's words are wrong, and the top priority at the moment is to try to get the Haihan people to withdraw from the army, rather than considering the long-term resettlement of these refugees. Could it be that you adults plan to fight with the Haihan people for a year and a half?"
The prefect He Guanzhi shook his head and said: "Not to mention a year and a half, I'm afraid it will be difficult to support it for ten days and a half months." Today, everyone knows the situation of the battle between the sailors and the Haihan people. The sailor was about to collapse at the first touch, and he was not the opponent of the Haihan people at all, and if he wanted to expel the Haihan from Hangzhou Bay, it would not work by these means at the moment. If you want the Haihan people to withdraw from the army, you have to solve the problem at the root. ”
What the "root" He Guanzhi is talking about, everyone here is actually very clear. The reason why the Haihan people raised an army to fight was the nameless fire that happened at Tongsheng Wharf a few days ago. Everyone knows that Hai Han is the direct victim of this case, but more than ten days have passed, but no substantial progress has been made in the investigation, the identity of the murderer has not been found, and the missing property is still missing. The ultimatum issued by the Haihan people to the Hangzhou government at that time did not receive enough attention, and now it is full of irony.
But no one will directly mention the investigation of the case on this occasion, because this matter is currently in the charge of Wang Ji, who is both a political envoy and a prosecutor, and mentioning this headless case that has not been solved for a long time will actually sweep his face to some extent. Besides, although the Haihan people sent troops in the name of seeking justice, it is not difficult for discerning people to see that Haihan is using the topic to play and deliberately make things bigger. It's just that there is no channel to contact Haihan at present, so the officials can't figure out what Haihan's purpose is for such a big move for the time being, and it is impossible for them to rely on their thousands of men and horses to delusionally start a war with the entire Ming Dynasty, right?
