Chapter seven hundred and fiftieth everything is possible

It was the end of November when Liu Sheng’s victory was delivered to Dongguan (Hanoi).

Dongguan City was decorated with lights and colorful colors, and there was a joyful atmosphere. The people who celebrated not only included civil and military officials and soldiers sent by the Ming Dynasty, but also many Annan people.

Among them, the surviving wealthy families after the fall of the Hu family, the royal family nobles who defected to Chen Zhengyuan's family, as well as the Annan people who had long defected to the Ming Dynasty court; these people were eager for Chen Jikuo to be finished soon. Otherwise, if the Annan rebels gained power, the Qing Dynasty would be the ones who calculated it; everything they got in the past few years would of course be wasted.

Zhang Fu's army had long eliminated all the enemy troops on the plain, namely the rebels in the Huangjiang River Basin. He has now returned to the "Annan Governor's Office" in Dongguan City.

At this time, there were still many rebels, escaping into the western jungle mountainous areas; for a moment, the Ming army had no good way to deal with them. Among the leaders of the various rebels who fled, only Ruan Yinhe expressed his willingness to accept the recruitment of the Ming army through the relationship of Ruan Zhi, the governor of the Eastguan Prefecture.

After Zhang Fu received the news from Liu Sheng, he summoned civil and military officials a day later to discuss reporting the victory to the court.

The first person to come to the Governor's Office early in the morning was Huang Zhong, who was still in the position of "Deputy Governor". Huang Zhong came too early, so he had to go to the yard behind the lobby to pay homage to Zhang Fu.

When Huang Zhong met, he began to feel unfair about Zhang Fu, which showed his attitude of advancing and retreating with Zhang Fu.

"Chen Jikuo had no talent. At first, he placed the main force of the rebels in the north, so the general was the one who made the most efforts. Unexpectedly, Liu Sheng took advantage of the loophole and ran straight to the south, taking advantage of the opportunity to get a lot of achievements. Alas!" Huang Zhong said with an unhappy look.

Zhang Fu was quite calm and said, "General Liu and I both serve the court. As long as we get the affairs of Annan, we will do our duty as a minister. What's more, Anyuan Hou's surprise attack from the sea was originally a strategy set by the court. Now everything goes well, we should be happy for Anyuan Hou."

Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment and muttered, "Fortunately, the Liu family has never been a guard of the Yan Prince's Mansion (Zhang Yu is one of the three guards of the Yan Prince), otherwise the current momentum is still great?"

After hearing this, Zhang Fu glared at Huang Zhong.

There are so many "smart people". It seems that if he doesn't tell others, others will understand nothing. However, Zhang Fu knew very well that he was not only Zhang Yu's son, but also a general of Pinghan, and his current situation is no longer bad.

He looked at Huang Zhong again and said quietly in a casual tone, "Deputy Governor Huang, do you want others to think that I am resentful to the court? The emperor's grace is so great, how can I be a ungrateful person?"

Huang Zhong bent down quickly and finally closed his mouth.

Zhang Fu was dressed neatly, and when the hour was about Mao, he took Huang Zhong to the lobby together. Sure enough, the civil and military officials from Dongguan came to the governor's office at this time.

Everyone came one after another. Zhang Fu did not immediately walk onto the seat, but placed the king's order and seal on the court, and knelt on the ground first, and bowed to the north. Seeing this, everyone quickly gave a big gift and shouted long live.

After a while of struggle, Zhang Fu got up, took out the folded memorial from his sleeve bag, and handed it to the civil servant Hou Hai, signaling him and his colleagues to circulate it.

At this time, Zhang Fu said, "I have written a good news memorial. Please take a look. Is there anything wrong? After the memorial is sent away, we will arrange for the left deputy general to lead the army to escort the thief chief and offer the capital to capture the capital."

After reading the memorial, Hou Hai said, "Hou Xincheng is the commander-in-chief, why don't he personally escort the prisoners?"

Zhang Fu said: "The person who captured the fake capital and captured Chen Jikuo was Anyuan Hou. It would be appropriate for us to choose Anyuan Hou to come to Beijing to offer prisoners?"

Xue Yan, the Minister of Justice, said: "Master Zhang also made great contributions, but it is reasonable."

Everyone agreed.

Zhang Fu continued: "Although Chen Jikuo was destroyed, Li Li was still in the mountains, and this person was even more difficult. The emperor valued this person no less than Chen Jikuo. Our army should try to completely eradicate the defeated enemy!"

At this time, Huang Zhong showed a sudden expression, with a little admiration. Zhang Fu glanced at him and thought to himself: If you didn’t get the opportunity, don’t worry about it. If you really want to do something, won’t you think about it yourself?

Zhang Fu reviewed his left and right and said, "I have submitted a strategy of 'suppressing and pacifying and pacifying'. Reward those Annan who provided reliable information for the Ming army; encourage those in the rebels to come out to surrender within a specified period of time, otherwise the land and property of their hometown will be confiscated. At the same time, the focus will be on the suppression of the rebels of the Lili tribe."

The two soldiers carried a map and spread it in front.

Zhang Fu ignored it for the time being and continued to face everyone: "The Annan Governor's Office should also send a report to the local governments and announce the promises of the Ming court. Just wait for the situation in Annan Kingdom to stabilize, and most of the Ming army garrisons will withdraw from the Dongguan and the south; recognize Chen Zhengyuan as the king of Annan Kingdom, and hand over the military and political power to govern the local government to the Chen monarch and ministers. The Ming court will no longer be directly responsible for personnel, government and other affairs in various parts of Annan Kingdom. This is also the will of the emperor."

Perhaps the emperor's judgment is correct. Letting the Annan people take power first can greatly reduce resistance. The former Jiaozhi governor, because sooner or later, will inevitably exploit the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity of the severity

Zhang Fu turned around and pointed to the map next to him and said, "This time, the Governor's Office should add four acropolis in Annan Country. In addition to Lang San Wei, one more vault will be added to Beijiang, Zhiling, Hedong (Haiyang), and Songtai (Haiping), and a water and land post road and Guanpu Post Station will be established.

With these defense lines, the Ming army garrisons could occupy a fertile soil in the northeast of the Huangjiang Plain, garrisoned farms and garrisoned without worries about food and fodder; and could also control the sea and land routes entering Annan Kingdom. The navy on the sea could go from Songtai River and Dongjiang River directly into Huangjiang, and defeat Japanese troops to approach the Dongguan; the mainland army could quickly support Dongguan through Langshan Wei and Beijiang Wei.

In this way, the Ming army did not have to divide its troops to occupy all parts of Annan, but could also maintain a deterrence to the hinterland of Annan. In the future, our dynasty would be able to restrain Annan."

Huang Zhong was the first to praise: "The Grand Marshal is wise!"

Xue Yan and Hou Hai also echoed: "Master Zhang has great talent and can rest assured when the emperor receives this memorial."

Yin Desheng, the direct descendant of the old Han Dynasty palace and the right deputy general, had no objection. Zhang Fu's memorial was recognized by everyone, and he decided to deliver it to the capital immediately by fast horse.

...The Annan King City in Dongguan City (Hanoi) has been abandoned for several years. Recently, people have renovated and sorted it out, and then selected some palace maids and eunuchs from the major families who persuaded Chen Zhengyuan to join Chen Zhengyuan. After some arrangements, they finally drove away a lot of the withered and decaying atmosphere.

The tower of this royal city has a double-eaved hall, which has a very oriental classical style, but is somewhat different from the Forbidden City in the capital. The same is that the bloody storm and bloody city of Dongguan was no less than that of the Ming Imperial City. The Hu family's political change, the Ming army entered the city, and all forces had occupied this place.

On the brick floor outside the royal city, many Annan people were gathering there, holding petitions from ten thousand people, asking Chen Zhengyuan, the son of the legitimate Chen Dynasty, to become king as soon as possible. Many onlookers saw it and felt that there were many Annan people who supported Chen Zhengyuan.

However, these people were arranged by Zhang Fu. It was not the first time he did such a thing, so he was quite skillful. (After the Ming army destroyed the Hu family power, Zhang Fu and other military generals learned that Emperor Taizong was interested in "recovering" the land of Annan, so a group of military generals brought a group of Annan scholars into the capital and petitioned Emperor Yongle to allow Annan Kingdom to "voluntarily" merge into the Ming territory.)

A few days later, the officials and civilians of Annan finally got their wish. Chen Zhengyuan summoned all civil and military officials from Annan and envoys of the Ming Dynasty in the Dongguan King City, and ascended the throne in the Zheng Hall.

During the ritual process agreed by everyone, Chen Zhengyuan first inherited the throne and worshiped his ancestors; then led the ministers to accept the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty's enthronement of the king, officially gained the recognition of the sect leader, and served as the governor of the "Annan Governor's Office".

The solemn music of bells and drums sounded in the hall. The Queen Mother Chen, wearing a dress and a phoenix crown, led the old king Chen Zhengyuan. Under the attention of countless people, they slowly walked towards the throne that was high above.

Chen Zhengyuan, wearing a small robe suit and a sparse crown on his head, obviously felt a little uncomfortable. He wanted to use his little hands to grab the crown on his head from time to time. At this time, Chen gently held his hand to prevent him from skewing his clothes.

The mother and son finally walked to the base and turned around in front of two chairs. The ministers immediately knelt on the ground, singing congratulatory speeches in Annan dialect, and the hall was full of liveliness.

Zhang Fu and several other Ming Dynasty civil and military officials stood in the last position. They did not kneel down, but just bowed and bowed to the people above. Chen looked here specifically and nodded gently.

Obviously she knew very well that she could not ignore the attitude of the sect leader at any time.

Then the music of bells and drums gradually stopped, and the ritual officials walked up and began to read the edict of succession. This formal document was written in the classical Chinese classical Chinese, and it was also read in Chinese. Because Annan only had Chinese characters and no other characters, they used Chinese characters earlier than the Koreans and the Koreans.

In the glamorous hall, solemn words echoed on the beams. Many powerful people gathered together again, and the vibrant scenes were like the spring, summer, autumn and winter of the season, and the rise and fall of the way of heaven; the prosperity of the past returned to Shenglong City again.

The beautiful Queen Mother sat on the side of the throne, with her dignified expression, majestic and excited. She attended the throne ceremony with the king to let the ministers understand that she will be the regent in the future. After all, a child of a few years old doesn't know how to use the power he has obtained for the time being.

Zhang Fu watched the whole ceremony and guessed the Queen Mother’s thoughts. Perhaps Empress Dowager Chen would feel that everything was like a dream at this moment. It was indeed a bit incredible that she had lost all the women and children to be able to live today.
