If you want to settle in, people will die.

Eunuch Wei knew the power of those big sea gangs (Shanghai) were well aware of the power of the great men.

Throughout history, when the Ming Dynasty's maritime armed smuggling groups were at its peak, they could even determine the fate of the Ming Dynasty.

For example, during the Jiajing period, Wang Zhi, the leader of the largest armed smuggling group at sea, was recognized as the leader of many smuggling groups at sea. "The barbarians on the thirty-six islands are all obeying the commands", with hundreds of thousands of people, first called "King of Jinghai", then "King of Hui", and even "Orphans to the south".

Compared with the "Japanese riots", the huge sea bandits led by Zheng Zhilong more than 30 years later truly achieved the destiny of the country. The demise of the Longwu Dynasty was Zheng Zhilong's "achievement".

But what makes people sigh is that the maritime forces led by the Zheng family continued to inherit the Han family's clothes and clothing on the isolated islands on the sea after the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

On that island, the Ming Dynasty flags still flew high, known in history as "Ming Zheng".

The last battle between the Southern Song Dynasty and the Navy Army in Yashan was the last battle between the Southern Song Dynasty.

The end of the demise of the Southern Ming Dynasty was the last battle between the Zheng family's naval army in Penghu.

Eunuch Wei has a homeland complex, so he definitely doesn't want to stay away from his hometown and run to Zuan Island to build a "Ming Wei", so he wants to gather the huge profits from the sea to support the country and country that is about to fall into pieces.

Therefore, "civil war" is inevitable.

However, this first class also needs to be divided into three steps. It is not that if you are angry, you will lead your troops to sweep the coastal areas of the three southern provinces, and then declare in public that Eunuch Wei will be the leader of the southeast coast from now on.

The first step is to seal the river and clear sea.

On the surface, the focus is on the river and clear sea, but in fact, the focus is on the river and the river.

The maritime trade is dominated by gentry in the three southern provinces, but the main sources of maritime trade are mostly concentrated in Jiangnan. In other words, Jiangnan merchants determined the scale of maritime trade. Although they did not directly engage in maritime trade, they were the foundation for maritime trade.

The Yangtze River water transportation is the lifeline of merchants in Jiangnan and marine merchants in Fujian and Zhejiang.

If the Yangtze River transport is cut off, at least 50% of the goods can be prevented from being out of the sea.

Without goods, how can the maritime merchants in Fujian and Zhejiang trade with foreigners?

If you do not take the Yangtze River water transportation and take the land route, the transportation cost will be doubled or even several times out of thin air, which is definitely not cost-effective for profit-seeking merchants.

The goods could not be left, and in the end, these merchants could only turn to the Maritime Special Economic Zone that could help them get the goods out.

Zhao Baole said that Feng Jiang and Qinghai were very dangerous, but in fact this was an extremely dangerous thing.

Cutting off people's wealth is like killing parents.

This move was not only the Governor Yingtian and the prefectures and counties in Jiangnan, but also the major gentry families in Jiangnan.

It can be foreseen that in the next few months, Eunuch Wei will sit on a smoked volcano.

In order to make the Fengjiang Qinghai achieve results in a short period of time, Eunuch Wei not only sent Wusong River to block the Yangtze River, but also sent public posts to various prefectures and counties along the river. The public posts said, "If the tyrants and tyrants want to join the military and civilians, they are good at building illegal ships of three masts and bringing illegal goods into the sea and go to foreign countries to buy and sell, they are regarded as secretly pirates and accomplices. Once captured, the criminal was executed in accordance with the Ming Dynasty law, beheaded and displayed in public, and the whole family will send a frontier to serve as a soldier."

Some people sent to the Nanjing Governor's Governor's Governor's Marine Office and the Nanjing Ministry of War to issue documents that the current Admiral's Maritime Affairs Office sealed Jiang Qinghai, and they built sea ships to find a tyrant merchant, selling them to the barbarians for profit, and even more, leaking military information. If they fail to deal with serious responsibilities, our Ming Dynasty will have no sea defense.

"If you dare to trade with other countries in private, you must pay attention to the important rules. Any foreign incense and foreign goods are not allowed to be sold. Those who have existing ones are ordered to submit them to the maritime office within one month. For domestic goods, they are also prohibited from going to sea."

In order to show his determination to seal the river and Qinghai, Eunuch Wei burned a number of sea goods in Wusong on August 19 to show his determination.

This matter is a typical example of being closed to the country in later generations.

Eunuch Wei lived as the person he hated the most. Fortunately, he did not follow the order to relocate the sea, otherwise, it would be like the Qing Dynasty.

But there is no way. If you don’t do this, no one will get on his pirate ship.

The mobile detachment has been ordered to "survive" the Yangtze River. The purpose of this tour is to tell those Jiangnan merchants who have business dealing with maritime merchants that you cannot leave the Yangtze River, otherwise the light will be to seize the ship and the worst will be to confiscate your whole family.

To seal the river, you can’t rely solely on Jiangnan, and you must also take action on Jiangbei.

Eunuch Wei has no ally in Jiangbei, so he needs the Langshan Fort.

………

What did that eunuch Wei do to Feng Jiang Qinghai? Zeng Guohua doesn't care about it, and someone else is in charge of it. But his Langshan Fort is not affiliated with the Wusong Water Camp. We need to investigate it carefully. The Langshan Fort was established earlier than the Wusong Water Camp. He is not a false general, so why should he obey your Wusong Water Camp?

What's even more annoying is that when Zeng Guohua just arrived at the fort, the eunuch Wei actually ordered him to cross the river to pay homage, saying that the Yangtze River and the north are integrated. In the future, the Langshan Fort will assist the Admiral Maritime Office to seal the river, which made Zeng Guohua angry and have nowhere to go.

After driving away the envoy sent by the eunuch of Wei, Zeng Guohua angrily summoned the generals of the fort to discuss.

"What the hell are those guys in Wusong Water Camp? How did you listen to the eunuch? And what are the seals and bans the sea? They are full! ... What does my Langshan Fort have to do with him? Why should I listen to him? I can't get into the water? He is a full man and I don't know how many people are hungry. Just the Yangtze River is holding a job!" Zeng Guohua sneered.

"Who knows, Taicang County opposite the river also said that Eunuch Wei rebelled on the army." The person who spoke was Zhang Tianbao, a garrison guard of the fort, and was from Yangzhou.

Zeng Guohua shook his head. If Eunuch Wei really rebelled, he would not have asked someone to come and let him listen to the order, but would have directly bombarded Langshan, and would not have done anything to Fengjiang and Qinghai, and would have written all over the country.

"I don't care how the eunuch Wei and the officials from Jiangnan are dealing with each other. But this Langshan Fortress cannot be listened to him."

Zeng Guohua made up his mind and got up and walked into the hall. He was not stupid. The former governor's yamen asked him to deploy a fort to monitor the Wusong River Camp. He was very puzzled, not knowing what happened to the Wusong River Camp. Now it seems that it is probably the eunuchs and governors from Beijing who are fighting for power, causing rumors to spread.

Fighting for power and profit is like fighting between gods and immortals. One side is a civil servant and the other side is a eunuch. He once was lazy to participate.

However, he has the responsibility, so he cannot ignore some things, such as asking him to be the general of Tongtai to obey the command of a eunuch, he will never do it even if he beats him to death.

"We have a heavy burden on our shoulders. Wusong River Camp was called to take over by eunuch Wei, so the Yangtze River would have no gates to rely on. If Langshan is lost again, wouldn't it be all for eunuch Wei along the river? You should cheer me up and guard Langshan, don't care about the matter opposite the river, no matter how the court thinks about this matter, we have made no mistakes."

Zeng Guohua is a mature and steadfast. No matter what happens in the Jiang side or what happens, his Langshan Fort is still the same as before.

Zhang Tianbao smiled and said, "Sir, if the emperor supports the eunuch Wei, we may have been ineffective?"

After hearing this, General Qian Lu Wu nodded and said, "Yes, I heard that the people in Wusong Water Camp have become the personal army of the emperor now. If the emperor agrees, how can these people become the personal army? From this perspective, then Eunuch Wei is afraid that the emperor will support him. If we ignore it, right?"
