A collective outburst of homesickness erupted.
Tong Guan was extremely strict in selecting soldiers at that time.
Physical fitness must be excellent.
Therefore, most of the soldiers in the victorious army were from respectable families.
Since he comes from a respectable family, he has relatives and friends.
The farther I am from my hometown, the more I miss it.
Zhang Shun called an officer over and gave him instructions.
"All weapons and armor are loaded onto the ships,"
"Send five hundred soldiers to escort the supplies into the city."
"The rest of the soldiers will stay here for the night,"
"I won't send troops to guard you either."
"If you want to go home alive, you'd better behave yourself."
"Ten people per team,"
"If one person commits a crime, the entire team is implicated."
"You'll never be able to go back to the North in this lifetime!"
The seemingly rough and careless handling method
But this instantly calmed the homesick surrendered soldiers.
Chapter 1820 The Art of Military Administration
Zhang Shun told them to set up camp on the spot.
They didn't even send troops to guard it.
This indicates that there was no intention to kill prisoners.
Fujian is too far from Shaanxi.
They didn't even think about running away.
As long as I can survive...
They were all willing to obey.
They were even more obedient than when they fought alongside Tong Guan and Xin Xingzong!
Wu Bo, the magistrate of Qingxi County, couldn't resist coming to check.
Upon learning of Zhang Shun's fate, I couldn't help but sigh.
"The general is rough around the edges but meticulous in his work."
"Deeply understands the changes in people's hearts,"
"He truly deserves to be called a renowned general of our time."
Zhang Shun laughed and said, "Where do so many people come from, so particular about these things?"
"A group of northern soldiers who have been away from home for many years,"
"The old Song emperor is gone, and the commander who recruited them is also dead,"
"What hope do they have left?"
"As long as we promise to let them go home, no one will run away."
"And they will obey orders,"
"So as not to lose the way home."
"Indeed."
Wu Bo nodded in agreement.
Zhang Shun said, "If there are more battles to fight, I will even allow them to bring weapons and armor."
"These soldiers can be brought directly to the battlefield."
"To go home, to earn merit,"
"To avoid punishment, they will become brave and fearless,"
"They are even more fearless than the soldiers from Kuizhou under my command."
Wu Bo praised, "I've learned something; governing the people and commanding an army are essentially the same principle."
These victorious troops plundered the people everywhere.
Each one of them had hands stained with blood.
But Zhang Shun had no opinion on this.
He only needed to take the surrendered soldiers back to the north.
It can be handed over to the imperial court to handle.
If I didn't feel that my achievements were too great...
Zhang Shun even wanted to bring these victorious troops with him.
They then seized the opportunity to take over Guangdong and Guangxi as well.
Then let them attack Zhongxiang from Guangxi.
.....
Zhang Shun's conquest of the southeast was incredibly swift.
The civil officials sent by the Ming Dynasty court arrived quickly.
Due to the sudden increase in territory by three provinces,
A large number of officials were promoted.
They were transferred in batches to Zhejiang, Fujian, and Jiangxi.
Many officials who were kept in the Hanlin Academy
They were also sent out to serve as county magistrates or county officials.
Some even went so far as to be judged by the state.
Shi Wenbin, who was already serving as prefect,
Although his official rank was still Prefect.
This time, however, he was transferred to be the prefect of Hangzhou.
He also concurrently served as a councilor of Zhejiang Province.
Among a group of old friends,
Shi Wenbin's promotion was relatively slow.
The main reason was that Zhao Yuan wanted him to train.
This time, Linghu Xu was appointed as the Provincial Surveillance Commissioner of Jiangxi.
Once Jiangxi has smoothly transitioned from wartime conditions,
He could immediately be promoted to Provincial Treasurer of Jiangxi.
The two provincial governors who contributed land were commended.
They will then be transferred from their current position.
This allowed the new Ming dynasty to gain control of Jiangxi.
Mingzhou (Ningbo).
A group of Goryeo envoys set off from here.
Because of the relationship between monsoons and ocean currents
They did not travel north by sea.
Instead, it flows through the waterways of Jiangsu and Zhejiang to the Yangtze River.
Goryeo's diplomatic standing in the Northern Song Dynasty
It was initially lower than that of the Western Xia.
During the reign of Emperor Huizong of Song,
Not only did they ally with the Jin to attack the Liao,
Moreover, they allied with Goryeo to control Liao.
As a result, Goryeo's diplomatic standing surpassed that of Western Xia.
Fearing being plundered by the Liao navy
Goryeo requested a change in shipping routes.
It previously landed in Shandong.
Later it was moved to Mingzhou.
A special Goryeo Division was established within Mingzhou City.
It was responsible for conducting tribute trade with Goryeo.
The current group of Goryeo envoys,
He has been under house arrest in Minnesota for a year.
Envoys including Li Ziliang, Li Yong, and Quan Tong
I still don't understand why I was placed under house arrest.
Li Ziliang was an old acquaintance who frequently traveled to the Song Dynasty.
He was received by Emperor Huizong of Song on several occasions.
Quan Tong even graduated from the Imperial Academy of the Song Dynasty.
Emperor Huizong of Song personally bestowed upon him the title of Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations).
Emperor Huizong of Song was clearly in Hangzhou.
It's very close to Minnesota.
Why do you insist on placing them under house arrest?
It's actually quite simple: Emperor Huizong of Song didn't know how to deal with the Goryeo envoys.
Let's leave it in Mingzhou for now and ignore it for the time being—the Goryeo envoy was ordered to contact the Song Dynasty to fight against the Jin.
Changing ships on the Yangtze River
They traveled north along the Grand Canal.
Li Yong said worriedly, "I still don't know how things are back home."
"We should return to our country and consult His Majesty first,"
"Then he went to Bianliang to pay homage to the new emperor of China."
Li Ziliang said, "There should be no problem domestically."
"I've heard that the Jin army was defeated by the Liangshan emperor,"
"It seems there is no room for us to send troops to attack Baozhou (also known as Baozhou, the Korean state of Uiju, which is on the opposite bank of the river from Dandong)."
Li Yong then asked Quan Tong, "What kind of person is the Liangshan Emperor?"
Quan Tong shook his head and said, "I don't know much about it."
"When the Liangshan Emperor was serving as the Imperial Academy Director in Tokyo,"
"The management is responsible for both the outer and inner dormitories,"
