Li Dingguo on the ship didn't know how to face the other generals for a moment.

At the beginning, when I caught Tokugawa Iemitsu, I was very happy, but when the joy disappeared, I was worried.

It's not that Li Dingguo is afraid of those people. To be honest, Li Dingguo, who grew up among the dead, really doesn't care about such things.

He doesn't care about life and death, what he cares about is trouble.

From the very beginning, he didn't know why Zhao Dading did this, nor why Zhao Dading let him take the credit.

Standing on the deck, he was full of doubts and couldn't figure it out.

The ship sailed quietly on the sea, and arrived in Edo after a few days.

Zhao Dading now sets up Edo as the command post, the base camp.

This place has withstood heavy bombing, and the buildings here have long since been bombed into ruins.

However, the location here is really good, and the geographical environment is very good. Zhao Dading ordered people to start cleaning up the ruins of Edo, and at the same time drive out the captives and rebuild Edo City.

The former Edo Castle was a very large city. If it were placed in Daming, it would be nothing to mention, but if it were in Wa Kingdom, it would still be a famous giant city.

The current Edo Castle is not very big, all the city walls have been demolished, and there are only a few scattered buildings on the ruins.

In and out of the city, there are many laborers busy here, which seems to be a huge construction site.

Of course it was not Zhao Dading's desire for pleasure, but Sun Jie's order.

In the not-too-distant future, Sun Jie will entrust his son here as the king of the Wa Kingdom.

It is for this reason that Zhao Dading attached great importance to the reconstruction of Edo Castle.

In the future, this place will become the wealthiest place in the entire Wa country, and it will also be the central city of the Wa country.

The basic laborers are those captives, but the skilled workers and various craftsmen are all hired by Zhao Dading from China.

Reconstruction is a good way to improve the economy. Although Zhao Dading doesn't understand these things, he can also see that the number of people coming to Edo to do business is constantly increasing, attracting many people from the mainland.

This is a good sign.

Soon after, Li Dingguo's boat came to the sea outside Edo Castle.

Just when he asked to dock, the defenders on the shore rejected Li Dingguo's request.

Zhao Dading left Edo three days ago and went to the west for inspection. Currently, the guards in Edo city are those arrogant soldiers.

These people coveted the Tokugawa Iemitsu and wanted to take this huge credit in their hands, but now that Li Dingguo took the lead, how could they feel comfortable?

Jealousy, vanity, competitive, driven by all kinds of psychology, they are no longer what they used to be.

Li Dingguo drifted on the sea for several days, but he still did not receive the order to approve the dock.

The food on the ship is about to bottom out, if it doesn't stop, there will be big problems.

Forced to do nothing, Li Dingguo couldn't care less, and ordered his fleet to stop forcibly.

This time, something went wrong.

The commander who defended the port was not angry at Li Dingguo for making such a great contribution, and his anger almost burst into his chest. Now that Li Dingguo dared to let the ship dock directly, his heart instantly became angry. Without saying a word, he ordered the port to The forts opened fire.

...

All of a sudden, Li Dingguo's fleet was sunk a lot, and many of the captives on it were buried in the sea.

After the shelling, the troops in the city were also attracted by the sound of the shelling.

However, these troops did not come to mediate, they came to add insult to injury.

They also fired at Li Dingguo's fleet one after another. Li Dingguo had no choice but to retreat.

But these troops were not forgiving, and even chased and killed Li Dingguo with warships.

As a result, Edo City was completely in chaos, and the captives who were detained in Edo City also took advantage of this opportunity to escape.

Li Dingguo lost [-]% of his troops, and it was still expanding.

The turmoil lasted for half a month, and it didn't stop until Zhao Dading came back.

All the generals involved in the turmoil were arrested by Li Dingguo, and there were almost 20 of them.

These people are the most arrogant group in the army. Relying on their military achievements and backgrounds, they have long become arrogant soldiers.

Even if it doesn't erupt now, no one knows when and where it will erupt in the future.

If this broke out in Chang'an, it would be a deadly threat.

Li Dingguo's army suffered a lot of losses, but those who died were basically those formed by warriors. For Zhao Dading, this was not a loss.

This is not a loss, but the impact is too bad. To put it lightly, it is to attack friendly troops, but to put it more seriously, it is to disobey military orders and deliberately plot rebellion.

These people already have the shadow of arrogant soldiers, if they are not severely punished this time, the impact will only get worse.

Zhao Dading set up a military court, and in just a few days, tried these officers who committed crimes.

Among the 20 people, five were sentenced to death, ten were exiled, and five were imprisoned.

Those who were sentenced to death refused to accept it, because they were the ones who made the most contributions in Zhao Dading's army.

In their view, they just killed some second devils formed by Japanese warriors. Even if they were wrong, they were not guilty of death, and it should not be the death penalty anyway.

Some unwilling people used various methods to sue Sun Jie.

They are graduates of the Daqin Military Academy and disciples of the Son of Heaven. Even if they make mistakes, it is not Zhao Dading's turn to deal with them.

Zhao Dading also sent a report to Sun Jie, explaining the cause and effect of the matter.

Sun Jie, who knew about the incident, very much supported Zhao Dading's decision.

In today's army, there are quite a few arrogant soldiers. Although they are not as good as Sapphire in history, they also have shadows in this regard.

This wind cannot grow, and this head cannot be opened.

The purity of the military must be guaranteed, and these people must be dealt with.

Sun Jie immediately returned the order and asked Zhao Dading to deal with it directly.

In the initial stage, Sun Jie had a shortage of people and officers. To deal with so many officers at one time, he had to weigh it first. But now, there is no shortage of officers. Anyone who dares to act recklessly must be prepared to be dealt with.

In the large prison of Edo Castle, five death row inmates were held in one cell.

Among them, an officer named Wang Haitao kept banging on the cell door.

"Let me out, let me out, why do you arrest me? Why do you arrest me? I have killed the enemy and made meritorious service for the country. How can you treat me like this?"

...

Wang Haitao cursed, his face was full of anger.

In his opinion, he just killed some Japanese warriors who surrendered. These people are not good things.

Since he joined the army for such a long time, he has made a lot of contributions to the country. It can be said that the establishment of the Great Qin Empire has his indelible contributions. He can't figure out why he was killed by Zhao Dading Sentenced to death?

This Wang Haitao is the commander of the port guard, and he was the one who gave the order to attack first.

It can be said that Wang Haitao was the main trigger for the attack on Li Dingguo. Without him, this incident would not have erupted so quickly and violently.

He is also the first person Zhao Dading ordered to be executed. Although he has made a lot of contributions, he is also one of the representatives of arrogance.

In the army, he had always been at odds with Li Dingguo, and would often trip Li Dingguo overtly and secretly.

Sometimes, they even clamored in public that Li Dingguo must be killed.

He didn't even give Zhao Dading face, and even blatantly disobeyed orders.

Zhao Dading expressly forbids any soldiers, officers or individuals from harassing the Japanese people who surrendered in any form, but this Wang Haitao does not obey. He often takes his personal guards to the homes of the Japanese people who surrendered and rapes their wives. Female.

Here the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and his contribution is great, Zhao Dading only took measures such as confinement before.

However, he should never have ordered his subordinates to attack Li Dingguo.

Raping Japanese women, to put it bluntly, is nothing more than corrupting the atmosphere, but the nature of attacking Li Dingguo is different, and he has no choice but to label him as a mob rebel.

Usually used to being arrogant, he didn't think there was anything wrong with what he did, but when Zhao Dading wanted to execute him, he was scared.

The movements he made quickly attracted the guard's attention.

A guard came outside the cell. He looked at Wang Haitao standing inside and said, "General Wang, stop struggling. The matter is doomed and there is no way to undo it."

Wang Haitao yelled: "What are you, what are you? When Lao Tzu followed His Majesty to conquer the city and seize territory, Jiannu and Qianming, you didn't know where you were?

Lao Tzu came all the way and made countless meritorious deeds.Why should Lao Tzu be executed?Where does he, Zhao Dading, have this right? I think he is just holding a chicken feather as an arrow, and really thinks he is a character.

He actually wants to execute me. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. I think he wants to get rid of me so that he can control all the troops. I think he wants to rebel and become king himself.

I have already asked someone to contact His Majesty, and I have reported all the things here, and His Majesty will definitely rescue me when the time comes. "

The guard standing outside the cell looked at Wang Haitao helplessly.

After Wang Haitao vented all the grievances in his heart, the guard said: "Master Wang, let me tell you the truth, the order to execute you was approved by His Majesty, and His Majesty's order has arrived three days ago." , saying that you guys are taking the blame for yourself, everything has been settled, and you can't live."

...

The guard left after speaking. Wang Haitao stood in the middle of the cell, his face full of disbelief.

He stared blankly in the direction of Chang'an, tears pouring out of his eyes crazily.

He couldn't believe that Sun Jie wanted to execute him. After a long time, he suddenly knelt on the ground, kowtowed and shouted in the direction of Chang'an.

He shouted words like "Your Majesty, I was wrong" and "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong", but it was a pity that Sun Jie couldn't hear what he said.

After all, people have to pay the price for what they do. If Wang Haitao hadn't been so arrogant and arrogant before, maybe he wouldn't have fallen to this point.

It was too late, and the remaining four in the cell were like eggplants beaten by frost.

They have also reported this matter to Sun Jie through various means before. They originally had expectations, thinking that these people have made great military exploits for the country and the court. Their status and rights will spare their lives.

But they never expected that such a result would happen in the end, and they would end up dead in the end.

All their thoughts were hopeless, their faces were ashen, and all their hopes were gone at this moment.

One of the condemned prisoners looked at Wang Haitao, who was kneeling on the ground and wailing continuously. He suddenly stood up, pointed at Wang Haitao and cursed: "You damn thing, it's all because of you. If it wasn't for you, how could I lead the Soldiers, how about going to the port to attack Li Dingguo? You damned thing, if you hadn't fired the gun first, how could I have been disturbed by you? You killed me, you killed me."

The condemned prisoner screamed and rushed towards Wang Haitao, fighting and rolling with him on the ground.

The other condemned prisoners also blamed Wang Haitao, and they also rushed towards Wang Haitao.

There was chaos in the cell, but the guards outside were indifferent and watched coldly.

The five condemned prisoners in the cell are usually arrogant and domineering, insulting, intimidating, beating, threatening soldiers, and doing a lot of dirty things. They belong to the kind of people with a bad reputation, and these guards will not care about them.

Not long after, Wang Haitao lay on the ground and lost his breath.

In the cell, there were only four death row prisoners left, and their ending was no different from that of Wang Haitao on the ground.

A few days later, the four condemned prisoners were sent to the execution ground.

In the center of Edo Castle, Zhao Dading had someone build a huge platform.

These four people were shot to death one by one on the high platform, and then the bodies were hung high on the bamboo poles.

In troubled times, heavy codes should be used. If you don't do this, you won't be able to shock people.

After dealing with these officers, Zhao Dading started a six-month rectification campaign. During this period, any violation of laws and disciplines will be dealt with severely.

After half a year, the atmosphere in the army is much better than before.

With the fall of Tokugawa Iemitsu, Wa Kingdom was completely pacified.

Because the distance was very close, Sun Jie immediately sent many officials to the Wa Kingdom.

There are students who graduated from Daqin University, and there are also those scholars who were previously captives and reformed.

After these people came to the Wa country, they quickly began to govern the place.

However, people like Zhao Dading can't leave yet, and the army can't leave until the place is completely recovered.

On the territory of what is now the Safavid Empire, Niu Niu has erected many drilling rigs.

Around the drilling platform, many refineries have been built.

The oil extracted from the oil well can be refined locally into gasoline, kerosene or diesel, and then transported back to Daqin by ship.

Under Niu Niu's management, the sphere of influence also began to expand northward.
