Chapter 1027

After conquering Qiantang, Yunqing personally brought people into the governor's house. There are two majestic stone lions guarding in front of the governor's house, and three vermilion animal gates. There are magnificent plaques hanging on the doors. The five characters "Jiangnan governor's house" on the plaques are shining in the sun.

The layout of the house is similar to that of Pingxi palace, but it is more exquisite. In addition, it is equipped with a large number of plaques, through folding mountains and managing water, planting flowers and trees, configuring garden buildings, and using a large number of plaques, couplets, calligraphy and painting, sculpture, steles and stones. The May Day inscription is not a famous writer of the time.

Du Zheng said to Yun Qing, "I always said that Lao Feng's house is exquisite. Compared with this, Lao Feng's house is not enough." Every yard of this house is different and has its own characteristics.

Yun Qing doesn't have much interest in the house. No matter how big the house is, no matter how many rooms there are, he can only sleep in one bed. Cloud engine said: "look what's left here?"

The soldiers searched, but they didn't find much valuable things. Yun Qing is not surprised by this. Yu Baojia runs so leisurely that all the valuable things must have been taken away.

Seeing that Yunqing was preparing to leave, Du Zheng was surprised and asked, "Lord, don't we live here?" It's a pity that we can't live in such a good house.

Yun Qing said, "go back to the barracks." No matter how delicate and rich he was, he would not live in this house.

Du Zheng sees this, although the heart does not give up, also can follow to go out.

Cloud engine on the one hand to stabilize the situation in Qiantang, on the other hand will send troops to the surrounding counties, so the next day is not easy. Fortunately, these cloud engines are already very skilled, but they are not in a hurry.

In six days, in addition to the surrender officials and generals approved by Yunqing, other officials and rich families were all seized. Among them, only in the home, gold and silver out of millions.

If you get so many spoils in other cities, everyone will be very happy. Unfortunately, this time, Du Zheng said with a gloomy face: "Lord, the things collected here are only half of those in Jinling." Since the dispatch of troops, Jinling has been the place where the most booty has been collected.

Cloud engine said: "half is good." In recent days, Du Zheng is mainly to seize the spoils of war, while Yunqing is mainly to stabilize the situation.

Dissatisfied, Du Zheng said, "I don't know if Qiu Qian has caught up with Yu Baojia? It's been so many days that there's no news at all. " Qiu Ye is the general of Fujian. He can't lead his own troops to intercept Yu Baojia. This time, it's Qiu Qian, the confidant of Qiu Ye.

Cloud engine said: "can only wait for news." These days, Qiantang is sunny every day, but he doesn't know what's going on at sea.

Du Zheng knew that they had no choice but to wait. He said, "Lord, we should have our own water army." If not, it's up to others to deal with such things again. It's a bad feeling.

Cloud engine swept Du Zheng one eye, said two words: "no money." The navy is no better than the army. First of all, the navy must have ships. We can imagine the cost of a ship carrying thousands of people. Not to mention, we should equip our soldiers with weapons. The northwest is now short of money, and the gold and silver seized this time is only enough to fill the loopholes. And even if he had money, he would have to destroy the northern captivity first. As for the water army, if you have money, you can build it again.

Du Zheng also knows that the good days of the officers and men in the army are all earned by the frugality of Yunqing and Yuxi.

Yunqing didn't think it was necessary to continue this topic, so he changed the topic: "these booty are loaded and sent back to pick city?" Apart from leaving some gold and silver for expenses, all the loot was packed and sent back to Ho City.

Du Zheng nodded and said, "good." The booty collected by Jinling should have been delivered to Ho City.

Yunqing thinks about it and talks to Du Zheng about his family custom: "haven't you written home recently?"

Du Zheng asked nervously, "what's the matter? Is something wrong with my family? " You know, Yunqing never asked about the housework of his subordinates. Now he suddenly asked about it. Nine times out of ten, there was an accident.

Yun Qing shook his head and said, "no, ah Hao said you didn't write back for a long time. Your daughter-in-law and ah Shao are very worried." This is what haoge'er mentioned in his letter to Yunqing.

Du Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, he thought it was something wrong at home: "recently busy, no time to write back." To be exact, he hasn't written a letter from home since he sent troops.

Cloud engine is not satisfied with this attitude: "no matter how busy you are, you won't even have time to write a letter. There are war reports coming back from time to time. Otherwise, your daughter-in-law and children will have to worry about death. " Yunqing wrote a letter every two days. Of course, Yunqing was in a special situation. His letters were sent back to Ho City with the war report.

Du Zheng actually regretted his words just now. No matter how busy he was, could he be busier than Wang Ye. Du Zheng humbly accepted Yunqing's Criticism: "I'll write when I go back."

It was also on this day that qiuqian finally caught up with Yu Baojia's fleet. The guard came in a hurry and said outside the cabin, "seventh master, it's not good. The enemy is coming."

Yu Baojia's face changed slightly and said“ It's coming so fast. " It's also news that Han Yuxi sent someone to persuade Qiu ye to send troops. He was worried that the time would drag on and everything would not be preserved at that time, so he would abandon the city and flee on the day of cloud engine's attack.

Yu Chunhao didn't speak. He couldn't fight a land war, let alone a sea war.

When Yu Chunhao heard that Yu Baojia was ready to abandon the fleet and flee, he was reluctant: "if we run away now, we will surely lose our morale. Judging from the current situation, Qiuye will surrender to cloud engine sooner or later. Rather than doing so, it is better to take advantage of this to weaken their naval forces. "

Yu Baojia shook his head and said, "we don't know how many of them have come? If they are more than us, we will be defeated. " The combat effectiveness is not as good as other people's. If the number of people is less than them, there is no doubt that they will be defeated. At that time, they will not be able to escape.

Yu Chunhao holds that if they abandon the ship and flee, they are afraid that Yan Wushuang will have no good face in the capital.

Yu Baojia said, "I don't want to die without a burial place. We have already done what Yan Wushuang said. Now we leave the fleet and he has nothing to say when we get to the capital. "

Yu Chunhao is silent, because he knows that it is useless to say more. For a person who is afraid of death, it's not ridiculous that you let him work hard.

Although Yu Baojia fled with Yu Chunhao, the general of the Navy still stuck to his duty and fought with Qiu Qian for a long time. Although it was only half a day, it also gave Yu Baojia enough time to escape.

Qiu Qian always knew that the Jiangnan navy was weak, but he didn't expect to be so weak. More than 10000 people were defeated after only half a day's fighting. What a bunch of rubbish.

It was night, but the boat was as bright as day. His subordinates came back with an ugly face and said, "general, these 20 odd ships are all antique paintings, calligraphy, porcelain and jewelry, leather and medicinal materials, but there is no gold and silver." They got the news that Yu Baojia was going to transport tens of millions of gold and silver to the capital this time. But now, I don't see any silver.

Hearing his subordinates' reply, Qiu Qian scolded a few words, and then told his subordinates: "set sail and go back."

Subordinates said: "general, those gold and silver treasures must be in front, as long as we catch up, these treasures are ours!" Qiu Ye didn't hide the purpose of this deployment from everyone, so all the people who came out with him rubbed their hands. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be such a result.

Qiu Qian said: "say so much nonsense, what to do, return." He was greedy for so much gold and silver. However, he was more worried about the ambush ahead. When the gold and silver were lost, it would be a loss. There are enough things for them to search the ship.

Although the subordinates are reluctant to give up, they dare not disobey orders.

The next morning, Yu Baojia met fan Jiang, who came to support him. Knowing that Yu Baojia had abandoned his fleet and fled, fan Jiang looked down on him. It's just that everything has fallen into each other's hands, and the sailors in the south of the Yangtze River have also been defeated. His more than 10000 troops can't beat Qiu Qian, so they have to give up.

It took Guan Tai two days to take Yongcheng. On the fifth day of his capture of Yong City, seven big ships suddenly appeared in the harbor.

Si Bonian said outside the house: "Lord, general Guan sent someone to send an urgent letter." It's urgent. It's urgent.

Seeing that Yunqing had finished reading the letter, Du Zheng looked a little ugly and asked, "what's the matter? What's the matter with Yongcheng? " According to reason, nothing should happen!

Yunqing said: "qiuqian intercepted Yu Baojia's fleet, but there was no gold and silver on the 24 ships." Although antique calligraphy and paintings are very valuable, they were in the Taiping period. If you don't know the goods, they are worthless. Gold and silver are hard currency at all times.

Du Zheng's face was also very ugly: "where is the gold and silver?" So much gold and silver can't disappear out of thin air.

Yun Qing said: "I'm afraid these gold and silver were sent to the capital ahead of time." Whether his guess is right or not will soon be known. It's impossible to hide such a large sum of money as long as it goes ashore.

Du Zheng was distressed and had to go: "Yan Wushuang has made a lot of money this time." Tens of millions of gold and silver are piled up into a mountain.

Yunqing said: "qiuqian sent us seven ships. Guantai hasn't sent someone to check the things on them. But it's worth a lot of money. " Compared with tens of millions of gold and silver, there are not enough things on these seven ships. But no matter how small the mosquito is, it's meat. Since it's been sent here, it must be accepted.

Du Zheng said, "Qiu Ye is a man of his word, but things are not divided in this way." Thirty percent of the 24 ships intercepted are seven. The problem is that we don't know what's on these seven ships. If it's all worthless stuff, it's a loss.

Yun Qing thinks that Du Zheng has lost his money: "since people can send these seven ships generously, they will not do anything."

After hearing this, Du Zheng did not speak any more.

Just as he was talking, he heard the voice of spernian: "prince, the princess has a letter to send."

After reading the letter, Yunqing fell into meditation. After a while, she raised her head and said to Du Zheng, "the princess said in her letter that she is going to send Han Jianming to Fujian as a lobbyist, hoping to persuade Qiu ye to submit to us." Sending troops is to burn money, but this time they have emptied their internal Treasury. Although a lot of booty was seized, the post-war pacification and governance was also a huge expense. Therefore, if we can solve Fujian peacefully without sending troops, we can lighten the burden.

In the letter, Yuxi also said that he would let Han Jianming be the governor of Jiangnan after waiting for Fujian. Han Jianming's ability is recognized by cloud engine. So he has no objection to Yuxi's proposal. It's just that it's not appropriate to talk about it before it's officially written down.

Du Zheng was a little surprised, but he quickly nodded and said, "it's a good thing to take Fujian in without sending troops. If you're afraid, you're afraid that Qiu Ye won't be willing."

Cloud engine shook his head and said: "Qiu ye can agree to cooperate with us, in fact, it is a kind of goodwill." If Qiu Ye didn't have this idea, he would not have sent the spoils of seven big ships so readily.

Seeing that Yun Qing's face was dignified, Du Zheng asked, "in that case, what is the king worried about?"

Yunqing said: "Qiuye is obedient. We can't understand his military power. I'm afraid that he will still support the army and respect himself and disobey the dispatch as he does now. " If so, it is a huge hidden danger.

Du Zheng said, "what does the princess say?"

Yun Qing shook his head and said, "the princess didn't say it in the letter." But Yun Qing can be sure that what he is worried about, Yuxi must have thought of it for a long time.

Du Zheng thought about it and said, "Lord, if Qiu Ye dares to support his troops and does not listen to the dispatch, then he will send troops to attack." After a pause, Du Zheng said, "if the matter in Fujian can be solved peacefully, it will be much easier to attack Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangdong when the matter in Jiangnan is settled."

Yun Qing said in a voice: "wait until Fujian's problems are solved." At present, one third of the counties in the south of the Yangtze River are still out of service. To attack Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangdong, we may have to wait until next year.

The booty of Jinling is transported into the city of pickaxe, like a long dragon. The people of Ho City came to see the news. However, with the army maintaining order, there was no chaos.

According to Yuxi's orders, all the gold and silver were put into the official silver Treasury, while the antiques, calligraphy, painting, silk and satin were sent directly into the palace of Pingxi. There are so many things that the whole palace is busy.

Brother Rui's triplets got the news. When they came back from practicing martial arts, they immediately went to Yuxi: "Niang, I heard that Jinling's booty has arrived. Mother, where are our weapons? "

"What weapon?" Yuxi asked

Rui Ge'er said happily: "Niang, you forget that the weapon that dad found for us was sent back with these booty."

Yuxi was so busy all day that he really forgot about it: "there are too many things. They also need time to sort them out. They will send them to the backyard tomorrow." Yuxi hopes cloud engine won't give triplets any more swords to cut iron like mud this time. Triplets are not heavy and easy to hurt.

Rui elder brother son just don't want to wait until tomorrow, hasten to say: "Niang, the thing that father gives us certainly did Mark, you let a person ask." He was eager to know what his father's weapon was like.

Yuxi said with a smile: "Cheng, Niang, let people ask." Rui Ge'er is also an acute person.
