    Success is different, but failure is mostly the same.

    Min Twenty-four was defeated, miserably. Fires rose into the sky, smoke billowed from Poyang Lake, and countless lives were lost forever in the smoke. They paid the price of their lives for a faint mention in the history books, and they were crowned as "  Thief" name.

    This shows how important reading is. If Min Twenty-four had spent one or two taels of silver to buy a copy of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" before the war, or asked someone who had read in the army to read to him a paragraph about how the Sun-Liu coalition fought thousands of years ago,  For those who fought in Chibi, I believe the outcome would be different. No one with a little bit of brain would do such a self-destructive thing.

    "You can't stop people even if they want to die."

    The fire lit up half of the sky over Poyang Lake, and it was as red as if the sky was on fire. Countless screams and howls were intertwined. Amid the fire, the long-awaited imperial navy launched an offensive, raining locust-like arrows.  The overwhelming fire poured towards the enemy ships, and the artillery on the ships also roared in time, adding insult to injury to the enemy troops struggling in the fire field.

    Countless rebel soldiers who were covered in flames were burned alive, and burned to ashes along with the ships. Some jumped into the lake out of desperation, and others were directly shot by arrows flying from the sky

    The war was brutal. Once it started, it could not be stopped. The soldiers on both sides fought with red eyes. Both their own lives and those of the enemy were ignored.

    The fire grew stronger due to the wind. Fifty-six out of ten of the rebel navy's ships had been burned. However, when the rebel leader Min Twenty-four was escaping in a panic between the ships, he was stabbed with an arrow.  The cold arrow shot pierced the throat, and the burly body fell into the sea of ??fire, turning into ashes together with the ship.

    More than 150 years ago, on this Poyang Lake, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang fought a decisive battle with Chen Youliang, his greatest enemy in his life, and the outcome of the battle determined the ownership of the country.

    Now on Poyang Lake, the elite soldiers under Emperor Zhengde will annihilate Zhu Chenhao's last rebel force like a lion fighting a rabbit.

    In this battle, nearly 10,000 people were burned to death or drowned by the rebel navy. The rest surrendered and a very small number fled.

    On October 29th of the third year of Zhengde, the three-month tumultuous Ningwang Rebellion came to an end, and Zhu Chenhao was defeated miserably.

    Victory is victory, but the aftermath is still going on.

    First, the shipwrecks and corpses on Poyang Lake must be salvaged. The factory guards are busy with the next thing. Qin Kan, Dai Yi, and Zhang Yong, who are far away in the capital, give orders to Jinyiwei and the huge state machine of the East-West Second Factory.  Quickly put into operation, those escaped rebels thought that nothing happened if they threw away their weapons and ran away from the court. They were totally wrong. If they dared to pick up weapons to rebel against the court, they would have to bear the consequences and pay the price. Factory  Wei Ti is riding all over the world, going up to heaven and earth to find these people and chop them down.

    At the same time, the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate urgently dispatched more than ten patrol censors to go to government offices across Jiangxi to assess the officials of each government office. In addition to assessing political performance and public opinion, more importantly, it was to verify that officials from all over Jiangxi had raised troops under Zhu Chenhao.  After the rebellion, if there were any scum who surrendered to the rebels or deserted the city and fled, it would be a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan, which is commonly known as "settling accounts after the fall".

    With the power of Wang Shi¡¯s victory, Jiangxi¡¯s officialdom was also facing a complete liquidation and reshuffle.

    Assessment and accounting were the affairs of the censor and factory guards. These trivial matters had nothing to do with Zhu Houzhao. On the fifth day after the victory in the Poyang Lake Water Battle, three academicians from the capital cabinet sent their horses out of the capital to respectfully invite the emperor's class teacher to return on behalf of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.  Beijing.

    Of course, Zhu Houzhao's first reaction when he saw the memorial was to crumble it into a ball and throw it away.

    Everyone seems to know what kind of temper Zhu Houzhao is. The urging memorials from the cabinet scholars are not just a random one, but one letter a day. The words in the memorials are becoming more and more urgent and lengthy, even more than that of Granny Wang.  The foot-binding cloth was still long, and the person who sent the memorial was the censor of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate. People like the censor were recognized as the best in the court. Not only were they not afraid of offending the emperor, but they often deliberately provoked them.  Emperor, it is simply dereliction of duty to speak to the emperor without mentioning the imperial staff a few times. I am embarrassed to say hello to others when I go out.

    The censors were very patient and came all the way from Nanjing. Regardless of whether Zhu Houzhao wanted to or not, they read in front of him the memorial of the cabinet bachelors requesting the master to return to the capital. Once a day, it was more punctual than taking medicine.

    Zhu Houzhao was going crazy. He couldn't get angry at these mean censors who were holding their necks for fear of not getting a beating. After four or five days of exhaustion between the emperor and his ministers, Zhu Houzhao finally chose to compromise. He had to compromise. Tang Monk gave Sun Houzhao  That's about it for me to recite the mantra.

    So Zhu Houzhao finally issued an order to break camp from Anqing and set off for the army to return to Beijing.

    **********************************************************************

    The army broke out of camp and set off for dozens of miles without end. Zhu Houzhao rode a horse and walked in the middle of the team, looking back reluctantly as he walked.

    Qin Kan turned the horse's head and came closer to Zhu Houzhao, and said with a smile: "The rebellion of King Ning has been quickly put down by your majesty. Why is it that your majesty is still unsatisfied when he looks like this?"

    Zhu Houzhao sighed and said, "Isn't it that you still have more to say? It's so pleasant to quell the chaos and beg for thieves outside. The unrestrained days are over. When I think of returning to the capital, sitting dryly in the golden palace every day, listening to the chatter of the ministers, I  Every time I coughed, there were countless scolds coming my way. I was scolded when I said something and scolded me when I did anything. When I entered the capital, I felt like I was tied up with countless ropes, and I could never be happy again."

    His tone of disappointment paused, and then Zhu Houzhao put on an expression that showed hatred for steel, and said angrily: "Why don't you think Zhu Chenhao, the traitor, didn't persist for a few more days? The idea of ??rebellion has been planned for hundreds of years, and then he created  In such a situation, the folk saying goes, "It's a mule or a horse that is led out for a walk." After walking Zhu Chenhao, he turned out to be an unsatisfactory mule. Why did the Zhu family produce such a thing? It caused me so much trouble in just two or three months.  Just flatten him, he¡¯s a piece of trash!¡±

    Qin Kan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. There is no doubt that this is another typical quote from a foolish king.

    "Your Majesty Your Majesty is mighty." Qin Kan could only send a dry and unconvincing flattery.

    Zhu Houzhao glared at him and curled his lips and said: "It's not mighty at all. I'm still worried. King Ning's rebellion has indeed been put down. On the surface, the imperial army has won a complete victory, and it took a short time, but in fact  What? I personally went on the expedition, but the Wang division had not arrived in Anqing. It was Wang Shouren who was supporting the whole battle in Jiangxi. Not only did he hold on to Jiujiang Prefecture for more than a month, but he also went deep into the enemy's rear to gather stragglers, and made a surprise attack on the enemy chief's home base of Nanchang. He also captured Zhu Chenhaozhen.  Does it have anything to do with me? In the Poyang Lake water battle, the rebel leader was so stupid and virtuous. Do I have the nerve to show it off? The only thing worthy of praise is the decisive battle in Anqing, but in that battle I led more than a thousand guards to risk the battle without permission.  Thief, if this matter reaches the capital, will the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty praise me as a brave and capable emperor? I never expected their dogs to spit out ivory from their mouths."

    Qin Kan wanted to laugh. Xiaohunjun was actually very smart. Three years after he ascended the throne, he could guess the political trends in the court very well. On the surface, the rebellion of King Pingning of Jiangxi seemed to be a complete victory.  But politics is as dirty as people's hearts. It was obviously the result of a great victory. When they returned to the capital, they were distorted by the civil servants. They could not tell what this great victory would turn into. It was certain that the civil servants would never praise it.  Zhu Houzhao did a good job. In order to prevent the emperor from leaving Beijing for personal expedition again, even if they won a big victory, they would do their best to turn white into black.

    Originally, Qin Kan wanted to find an opportunity to remind Zhu Houzhao and make him mentally prepared. Now seeing that Zhu Houzhao's heart was like a mirror, Qin Kan said no more.

    "It's rare for Your Majesty to be so self-aware. I would like to congratulate the Ming Dynasty. As the saying goes, knowing shame is close to courage. Laozi said: 'He who knows others is wise, and he who knows himself is wise', which is good"

    Qin Kan sent another flattery that even Zhu Houzhao was hesitant to know whether it was a compliment or a disservice. The more Zhu Houzhao heard it, the less it tasted. He waved his hand and sighed: "Stop, Qin Kan, I just said these words just to be modest.  You don¡¯t need to respond too seriously. Even if you want to respond, you should bravely refute me, and then tell me loudly that I am actually wrong. I am a wise emperor rarely seen throughout the ages.  There are only three emperors, Taizu, Yongleand me."

    Although he knew that Zhu Houzhao was not generally thick-skinned, Qin Kan was still deeply shocked by these shameless words.

    After staring at Zhu Houzhao for a long time with wide eyes, Qin Kan turned his head decisively and sighed: "Chen Chen"

    Zhu Houzhao looked at him expectantly, his eyes full of encouragement.

    "I'm leaving to supervise the army's transportation of grain and grass. I'm going to retire!"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The army set off from Anqing and arrived in Nanjing five days later.  As usual, officials from the six ministries in Nanjing rushed to see him. These ministers obviously came not to praise his virtues, but to urge Zhu Houzhao not to stay longer in Nanjing. The country cannot be left without a master for a day, so His Majesty returned to Beijing as soon as possible to manage the government.

    This advice angered Zhu Houzhao. He was originally a teenager at heart. To put it nicely, he was in the rebellious stage of his youth. At worst, he had a stubborn temper. He was in a hurry and was regressing.

    All the ministers asked him to leave today. Zhu Houzhao simply fell down on the dragon bed. He was sick. He was very ill. He could not see the light or water, especially he could not travel far. This symptom was not suitable.  Pedestrians will immediately understand that this is rabies.
