Chapter 936: The Ningxia Family

Chapter 936 Ningxia Junjia

With Wang Tongding Beihou, the commander of the Jinyiwei, and the status of Emperor Wanli, the number one confidant of Emperor Wanli, he needed to do what he had to do personally.

Since July, the Jinyiwei stationed in Shaanxi has reported secretly many times that Ningxia's deputy general, Chengen, had ill-behaved intentions. Almost at the same time, Ningxia Governor Dang Xin also reported to the capital secretly, saying that the deputy general, Chengen, was rampant and illegal and colluded with Taukko.

Ningxia is one of the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty, adjacent to Gansu Town, the westernmost part of the river. On the edge of the Hetao area, the so-called Taukou is the ancient tribe that moves around the Hetao area.

Since the Zhengtong year, the Ming Dynasty's forces in the west have gradually withdrawn from Hetao and are in a defensive position, where the tribes of the ancient ancient times are active.

Chengen of the King, this surname "六" is not a Han surname, but a clan. The ones who are most familiar with border affairs must be the Han people in the border areas and the ethnic groups on the grassland.

The clan of the clan occupied China during the clan of the Yuan Dynasty. After the Ming Dynasty’s founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang expelled the Tartars, many clans remained. Moreover, the communication between the clan and the Ming Dynasty was very smooth, and it was not completely inconsistent with other ethnic groups. Many tribes and chiefs who were sinicized or kind to the Ming Dynasty often surrendered and became officials in the Ming Dynasty, with the most military boundaries and border towns.

The people of the sect are a bit more barbaric than the Han people. On the battlefield, this barbaric is often a representative of courage and combat power. Moreover, they were originally from the grassland and fought in border towns, which was more familiar and convenient. Therefore, the ancient sect chiefs of the sect were often able to reach a high position as officials in the Ming Dynasty.

Wen Chengen was extremely powerful in Ningxia Town. Although he was a deputy general, the general could not do anything. He had to ask him everything. The reason was very simple. The governor and the general's personal soldiers were only 1,500, while Wen Chengen had more than 2,300 soldiers, all of whom were capable of fighting.

This is only under the jurisdiction of Emperor Chengen, and there are also local tyrants from all over the northwest who are dependent on the Emperor's family. These local tyrants and men are all under the influence of the mobilization of these people.

Besides, the tribes on the grassland here are naturally willing to deal with the people and are unwilling to interact with Han generals. Ningxia General Zhang Weizhong spoke without a sound in Ningxia Town. Outsiders only know General Xu, but not General Zhang.

With such a force, the Han family already had its own tribe on the grassland, and it was exclusive to the benefits of border trade. Nearly two-thirds of the salt in Huamachi and other places in the west were under the control of the Han family, which meant that his family also controlled the salt administration in Ningxia and even imported salt into the inland Shaanxi, making a huge profit.

With soldiers and wealth in his hands, and his friendships are vast, it is inevitable that such arrogance is inevitable. He is only thirty-five years old this year. He can reach such a position not because of how brave he is, but because of his father's worship.

He surrendered to the Ming Dynasty in the 33rd year of Jiajing. He relied on his military achievements to become a guerrilla general step by step. He retired as the deputy general at the age of 56, and then passed the position to his son He Chengen.

Ningxia and Gansu were considered the western borders of the Ming Dynasty. All ethnic groups were mixed with each other, and the rules were not as good as those in the eastern border towns. The generals of the opposite clan were often very tolerant.

Although Wei Bai has retired, he is a native of Ningxia and has served in the army for many years. The generals of all sizes in Ningxia Town are his juniors. Even General Zhang Weizhong couldn't raise his head in front of him and wanted to be polite.

With all aspects combined, the Han family can already be called dominant in Ningxia Town. He is a deputy general, and the Ningxia governor is putting it there. There is no oil or water, and he will be bullied. Naturally, there are many contradictions. It can be imagined that there will be no good things in the secret memorials.

If it were just the complaints of the governor, general, or even the eunuchs of the military supervisor, there would be no one in the court to take it seriously. The civil and military control and the great balance of the country was exactly the situation the court wanted to see.

Moreover, the governor of Shaanxi three sides did not say anything bad. Even though the arrogant family was arrogant, they had never given less filial piety to everywhere, and they had to take care of everything.

Such things are at best, just chatting and laughing, and it is absolutely unnecessary to alarm the commander of the Jinyiwei. For the Jinyiwei, even if you send a thousand households from the capital, it is unnecessary.

However, the news Wang Tong received was not like this...

Everything has connections, causes and effects. After Wang Tong captured the city of Guihua, the power structure on the grassland and even the mentality of various ethnic groups on the grassland has changed greatly.

Ningxia Town faced the Hetao area. When Altan's army dominated the grassland, the main enemy of Ningxia Town's defense was Altan's forces.

The Altan tribe is dominant on the grassland. In fact, other tribes of the ancient tribe may not be willing to be willing. How happy is it to be a family? Why should you work hard for the Altan family under someone else's roof?

It is precisely because of this mentality that Xibai and Xichengen were all in the grasslands in Ningxia Town, with various assistance, and several large tribes of a large scale all formed private alliances with the Xi family.

The Altan tribe was unwilling to remain in a state of fighting with the Ming Dynasty at all times, and he also restrained his subordinates from getting too close to the Ming Dynasty's border walls.

This actually gave Ningxia Jun family and some tribes the opportunity to take advantage of loopholes. The Ming Dynasty was afraid that the Altan tribe would not dare to go out of the border. The Altan tribe did not approach the border wall for trade and peace. As a result, the fertile Hetao land outside the Ningxia Jun wall became the sphere of influence of the Han family.

The Han family imported livestock and specialties from the grassland from the grassland to the inland, and then imported the Ming Dynasty goods to the grassland, making a fortune in it, and even the Altan tribe had to buy it here.

When there are police on the border, the family can often get news reported on the grassland as soon as possible. They will send troops to the frontiers in response to the story, and the other party will retreat with great face, and even make some unimportant small tribes killed and annexed by the family, thus achieving the military achievements of the family.

Under such circumstances, the power of the Han family will naturally become larger and higher, and the position of the Han family will become higher and higher.

Moreover, the nearly 3,000 soldiers of the family are indeed not scary, because they are mostly clans, and the cost of raising them is much cheaper than that of the Han soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, and they are not bad at bravery.

Both Xibai and Xi Chengen had led the personal guards and Altan's cavalry to fight in field many times, and suffered casualties. Although they did not win a great victory, they were brought back by the head and did not lose the disadvantage. It was already a great achievement among the border generals of the Ming Dynasty. No one dared to go out in Gansu, Yansui, Yulin, Guyuan, and Datong.

However, all of this changed completely after Wang Tong led his troops to capture Guihua City. Altan's army gathered tens of thousands of cavalry to fight Wang Tong's army, but it ended up being completely wiped out. Guihua City was almost washed away. No one expected that the force that dominated the Thousand Miles of Grassland would be destroyed in less than a month.

The forces of Altan's tribe were destroyed, and all border towns responded in shock. The reaction of the Ningxia township was to send troops out to enclose land, occupying a lot of territory in the Hetao area. During this period, the power of the family became even stronger, but the Miyue continued until this time.

The formation and growth of the Guihua City Commercial Group is the process of burning, killing and looting the Guihua City Commercial Group's armed forces in the vast areas west of Guihua City. The forces of the Han family on the grassland and under the command of the grassland are all ancient tribes of large and small sects. In the eyes of the Guihua City Commercial Group, these tribes are fat pieces.

If you can fight, you will fight yourself. If you can’t fight, you will be labeled as “remnant of Altan” and return to Huihua City to invite reinforcements.

The power of the Han family suffered heavy losses in the Hetao area and was still alive, because in the era when the Altan tribe existed, these tribes were all relegated to the grassland by the Han family as "enemy". If this loss is used, one of them would be charged with collusion with the enemy country.

Not to mention the armed forces of the merchant group in Guihua City, local tyrants and generals in the Shaanxi-Gansu area and all the forces in the border towns were out of the Fortress encirclement. They used to be afraid of the Tartars like tigers. Now, once the biggest heart disease of Altan's tribe has gone, the rest can be relied on to win.

Moreover, they are familiar with the terrain and know how to make a fortune. In the past, the various benefits that the Jun family had exclusively been taken away bit by bit, the salt pond was occupied, and the border trade was squeezed. Your Jun family is powerful in Ningxia Town, and what is it in Shaanxi? Can you compare the King of Qin? Can you compare the governor of Shaanxi? Everyone wants to make a fortune? You are a military general who is in your possession, so let's stand aside!

The scene of the Han family collapsed bit by bit. It turned out that many tribes that depended on the Han family went to Guihua City to find a business, or they would find a more powerful partner in Shaanxi.

It has always been a force that is moving upward step by step. Suddenly, how can the Jun family tolerate it? Naturally, all kinds of resentment arise in their hearts.

It would be fine if he was the only family. All tribes in Hetao, such as the largest Huoluochi and other tribes, and the local military generals in Ningxia and Gansu, were destroyed by Altan's tribes, and the naturalized merchant group was damaged in the tide of wanton expansion on the grassland. They could not benefit from this tide.

Needless to say, Huo Luochi had too much blood debt from the Ming Dynasty on his hands, and even when he started walking on the grassland, they thought that a fat sheep would come and had to eat a few bites, but they were incompatible with the naturalized merchant group. Moreover, Huo Luochi was also a large tribe with more than 10,000 people, and both the naturalized merchant group and the wealthy families in Shaanxi and Gansu were closely watching.

The situation of the local military generals in Ningxia and Gansu was mostly similar to that of the Jun family, and they all took advantage of the situation between the Ming Dynasty and Altan. Now the situation has changed drastically. They are familiar with the advantages of the local area and outside the Great Wall, and they are suddenly gone, so they naturally start to decline.

Everyone was resentful and dissatisfied. The Ningxia Wen family was a top tyrant in the northwest. Naturally, everyone was led by him and formed a group full of resentment.

This group hated naturalized business groups, hated the wealthy families of Shaanxi and Gansu, and even hated the Han people, hated the Ming Dynasty...
