Chapter 920 Famous and familiar

Chapter 920 Famous Like Meet

When people are in a happy mood, Wang Tong's wife is pregnant and is in a good mood, but after reading this document, she has such a big reaction, which really shocked Hou.

The matter mentioned in the newspaper was really serious. Hou Zhen really didn't think so, but after seeing it, he felt that it might cause storms, so he brought it over.

"It's so good that the Tutang knows that this document was sent three days ago and was archived directly as usual, but because of the greeting, I was seen by my subordinates."

In order to ease the atmosphere in the house, Hou Zhen bowed and said something else, lowered his head and picked up the document, and placed it respectfully in front of Wang Tong. Wang Tong stared at Hou Zhen and said in a deep voice:

"You did a good job. Although you mentioned the Qianhu family in a few days, this is not the end. If you do it with your heart, the assistant ministers and colleagues may not be able to do it. No matter how bad you are, you can place a Qianhu family in a separate manner."

Hearing this, Hou Zhen quickly knelt down and kowtowed and said:

"The subordinates do these things just because they are so kind to the capital, so the subordinates should be loyal to the end!"

The Experience Department was originally aligned with several hundred households. Hou Zhen posted Wang Tong and stood in a close position, so Wang Tong recommended him to be a thousand households, which was considered as letting him take charge of the Experience Department. But this sentence just now promised a greater future. Now, the four positions of the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei and the commander-in-chief are hanging in the air. If Hou Zhen is willing, he can go further.

Hou Zhen finally understood that the errand he did this time was really in line with Wang Tong's wishes, and the benefits in the future were endless. As the Chinese New Year approached, and such appreciation was also considered a double happiness. He couldn't help but put a little bit of joy on his face. The paper was put back on the table. Wang Tong looked through two pages and closed it again. After being silent, he spoke:

"The document on this matter is ready, and will be sent here before dark tomorrow. If anyone in our personal army is familiar with the situation in Liao Town and outside the pass, ask an experienced person to come and ask. These matters must be kept confidential, you can understand!"

"Please rest assured, the officials understand!"

Hou Zhen kowtowed again, Wang Tong waved his hand to signal Hou Zhen to go down, picked up the paper on the table, and looked it through again.

The matter mentioned in the document is nothing big. It is about the enemy of a Jurchen rich chief under the protection of the Liao Town Vilar. The Jurchen rich chief has expanded its power in the past two years and has begun to ask for this enemy from Liao Town. Under the pressure of this powerful chief, the general of the Liao Town border guard handed the enemy to the powerful chief.

This incident did not appear in the memorial or any official documentary, but was recorded by the Jinyiwei's eyeliner there, and then sent to the Jinyiwei Yamen in the capital.

Even the Jinyiwei, who recorded this incident, did not think that this matter was important, because the main content of this document was that the Jurchen hero regularly praised the Li family for the mountain goods outside the pass, various furs and ginseng. These goods were sold to the mainland for huge profits, which was considered a type of bribes taken by the border general.

It is estimated that the reason why Hou Zhen selected this document was that Li Chengliang and his son's families had close contacts with this Jurchen chief and had received a large amount of goods. There were rumors that Liao Town had sold this man privately, but there was no evidence for this.

However, Wang Tong, the name of the rich chief, has heard of Wang Tong's historical knowledge. In this era, he knew the name of Wanli and Zhang Juzheng, and Feng Bao was even more vague, not to mention others, but he has heard of the name on the document.

...

The name of this Jurchen hero is Nurhaci...

After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di, who was still the King of Yan at that time, established a commander commander outside the pass. This area governed the vast area of ​​Baishan and Black Water, and was called the Nuergan Dusi.

This area under the jurisdiction of the Commander Command Department is from outside the walls of Liao Town to the vast area of ​​the sea. This place was a wilderness in this era, with deep mountains, old forests and swamp wetlands everywhere. The troops of the Ming Dynasty were not suitable for garrisoning here, so according to the disposal of other remote places, the local ethnic tribes and thousand-household offices were divided into brigades and thousand-household offices.

Generally, a large tribe has received the title of a guard, while a small tribe is a Qianhu House. Naturally, in this place, a guard will not be full of more than 5,100 males. A tribe can have this title in almost 2,000 tribes.

Among these garrisons, there are Jurchens and ancient people. Perhaps the strength and weakness are distributed according to the distance from Liao Town. If the distance is close, there will be more opportunities for looting and trade, so the more wealthy ones will be. If the distance is far, there will be fewer opportunities, and naturally the poorer ones will be.

In the past, the Taining tribe among the three guards of Duoyan were the ones who dominated here, but the Taining tribe was extremely weak due to the continuous blow from Liao Town and could not be brought to the table.

Generally speaking, the Jurchen tribes and tribes here are the orthodox tribes who respect the Ming Dynasty as orthodox and obediently submit to them. In fact, each tribe takes the ancient tribes on the grasslands in northern Liao and western Liaoning as the sect leader. Now the orders of King Khan of Khan can pass between the white mountains and black waters.

Among these tribes, there is a Wei who is considered to be relatively powerful and wealthy in the Nuergandus, and this Wei is called Jianzhou Wei.

Speaking of the word tribe, many scholars in the Ming Dynasty immediately remembered the nomadic scene of thousands of miles of grasslands and looking down at cattle and sheep. In fact, most of the Jurchen tribes outside the pass are engaged in farming and fishing and hunting. They raise pigs and farm fishing and hunting. Compared with the farmers in the pass, they have received a lot of militarized and semi-militarized cooperation and training because of fishing and hunting.

Jianzhou Wei is also doing these things, but unlike other wuxia, Jianzhou Wei's commerce is particularly developed because its position is too advantageous.

Jianzhou Wei and Daming were both adjacent to each other, and the trade with the Ming Dynasty was completed by official tribute missions, but this mission was controlled by domestic aristocratic bureaucrats and traded with wealthy merchants and powerful people in the capital of the Ming Dynasty. There were few people who could share the benefits.

However, the profits from foreign trade are extremely important to the people, so many private merchants thought of other ways to trade in Jianzhou and Wei, and trafficked to the Ming Dynasty through Jianzhou Wei.

Over time, Jianzhou Wei became a trade transit station, and more and more people engaged in trade in various Jurchen departments of Jianzhou Wei. Some people purchased mountain goods and specialties from all over the north and east, and sold them to Ming merchants in Jianzhou Wei, making profits, which was extremely prosperous.

Because of its wealth, the Jianzhou Guard is much stronger than other tribes, and there are also three guards. Nurhaci is the commander of the Jianzhou Guard.

The Jinyiwei is quite effective in collecting information from important places in the capital, and is not so careful in collecting all parts of the border, but the advantage is to accumulate. There are still a lot of relevant information to be found, and the Jinyiwei can mobilize it in other places, which is also an advantage.

After that, Si Houzhen almost collected all the relevant documents and materials the next day. When he asked for information from other yamen, he was not only targeting Liao Town and Jianzhou Guards, but others also discovered his intention and purpose. Moreover, the Jinyiwei who was on duty in the border of Liao Town was not found. Sanjiang Trading Company found several merchants who often went there and introduced them.

After Wang Tong got the document, he was still in the mansion on the first day, but on the second day he went to Li Wenyuan's duty room. The security department's duty room is located in the area of ​​South Street, and Li Wenyuan is in charge of him. They are all Wang Tong's most direct lineage, and this is the most reassuring place.

Things in Jianzhou Wei are very complicated, and there are many allusions. In fact, the name appears in Wang Tong's vision, which surprised Wang Tong. Wang Tong wanted to understand it in detail as much as possible.

Jianzhou was rich and prosperous, and the various divisions of the Jurchens in Jianzhou were also arrogant. The ancient divisions often went to the Ming Dynasty to rob, and they also followed, or took small actions in private.

But the border soldiers in Liao Town were also fierce. After Li Chengliang was called the general of Liao Town, the border soldiers in Liao Town became even more arrogant. Then the plunder, burning and killing became the opposite. The border generals of Liao Town often went to the Jianzhou Wei area to rob, and sometimes chopped the heads as military merits.

Foreign tribes were as fierce as tigers and wolves when the Ming Dynasty was weak, and as gentle as sheep when the Ming Dynasty was strong. The various garrisons in Jianzhou were very respectful to Liao Town in this era.

The commander of the right guard of Jianzhou rebelled, and the Jurchen family of the Jianzhou Guard were all mixed and in-laws. The commander of the right guard of Jianzhou was Nurhaci's grandfather. Since he rebelled, the general of Liao Town, Li Chengliang, naturally wanted to send troops to wipe out the enemy. At most, this guard station mobilized 1,500 male men. How could it resist the elite of Liao Town? The city of Jianzhou Guard was broken and several rebel generals were killed.

The son of the commander of the Jianzhou Right Guard escaped into the village of the Jianzhou Left Guard. The Jianzhou Left Guard was Nurhaci's side. My uncle ran over, and Nurhaci's grandfather and father naturally wanted to take in. In fact, the rebellion of this Jurchen tribe was mutually in touch with each other. One family rebelled, and the other family did not make a name for themselves, but it might not be that they would not help.

Such a city was just a sesame thing in Li Chengliang's eyes. He dared to take in rebel generals, so he naturally wiped out Liso. As a result, the city of the Jianzhou Zuowei was also captured, Nurhaci's father and grandfather were also killed in the battle, and Nurhaci and his brother Shurhaci were both captured.

The noble family members of various Jurchen tribes had the habit of going to Liao Town to serve as personal soldiers for the Li family, which was considered a kind of proton. Nurhaci was a servant under Li Chengliang's sect back then, and he was some old acquaintance in Liao Town. He was captured and brought back to Liao Town, and was released.
