Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 423 Three Lingnan Loyalties
In the end, the imperial decree made a special confession.

Order Zheng Chenggong to completely turn the [-] nautical miles near Taiwan into a training ground for the Ming Navy.

Without the permission of Ming Dynasty, no country or individual merchant ship or warship can set foot.

Especially the Dutch merchant ships, not a single one can be let go.

After Huang Ming finished reading the imperial decree, Zheng Chenggong and others hurriedly received the decree to thank them.

Until then, everyone came to get to know Zhang Jiayu and Chen Bangyan.

From today, Taiwan's governance will be handed over to these two, and they will officially become the parents of the people of Taiwan.

Although Taiwan has always been a Chinese territory in history, it is not a province and has always been under the jurisdiction of Fujian.

Although the ocean naval base is in Taiwan, they will not interfere with Zhang Jiayu and Chen Bangyan's governance of Taiwan Province.

Speaking of Zhang Jiayu, the first prefect of Taiwan Province, and Chen Bangyan, the governor, we still want to introduce them.

They are one of the three loyalists in Lingnan. Like Yan Yingyuan and others, they are all famous anti-Qing people in history, but they are not as famous as Yan Yingyuan and others.

In this book, the Eastern captives did not enter the pass, so no one would know what the Three Loyalties of Lingnan are.

But as a modern traveler, Zhu Youjian is very clear about this.

Lingnan Sanzhong refers to the three national heroes who resisted the Qing Dynasty, Chen Bangyan, Chen Zizhuang and Zhang Jiayu.

After the fall of the Ming Dynasty in 1644, the Han nationality, suffering from internal and external troubles, continued to suffer from the combined devastation of natural disasters, peasant uprisings, and the invasion of the Qing Dynasty.

Under the leadership of the Nanming government, the people of Lingnan have emerged many heroic and martyrs, among whom the Three Loyalties of Lingnan are the representatives.

Chen Bangyan,
The first of the three loyalists in Lingnan.Zi Lingbin, nickname Yanye, Han nationality, born in 1603 and died in 1647 AD.

Born in Longshan, Shunde, Guangdong.In the early years, he set up a museum to give lectures, and was a famous teacher of Confucianism in southern Guangdong at that time.

After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, Chen Bangyan, who was [-] years old, wrote a ten-thousand-word book "On the Policy of Zhongxing". He participated in the Nanming Guangdong Provincial Examination, and was promoted to the head of the Ministry of War. He was sent to Ganzhou to participate in the military.

In 1647 AD, he made a secret agreement with Chen Zizhuang and raised troops to attack Guangzhou, fighting against the Qing army.

After the battle against the Qing army in Qingyuan, he was outnumbered and all the cities were destroyed, and he was sentenced to torture.

When he was about to be sentenced, he generously wrote "Five Days in Prison without Eating the Song of Fate"

The sky is so difficult, and the river of the minister is also the Hu.

Scholars talk about soldiers, Shizai is not with me.

What's wrong with me? I bow and suffer alone.

There are many loyal souls in Yashan, and they have been shining through the ages!"

Let's sing, let's take it easy.

Works such as "Xueshengtang Collection" in ten volumes, "Nan Shangcao", "Yi Yun Numeral Method", "Zhongxing Zhengyao" and other works survived to the world.

He used his works to show his desire to rejuvenate the country and his loyalty to the imperial court, expressing his strong thoughts of loyalty to the emperor.

He used prose to analyze the situation at that time and put forward countermeasures, showing extraordinary thoughts on governing the country.

He advocated that articles should be practical, and he used prose to solve his own practical problems, showing typical practical thinking.

After the heroic sacrifice, Yongming Wang Qi posthumously awarded Bangyan the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, with the posthumous posthumous title of Zhongmin, and the command of Yinzi Jinyi.

Zhang Jiayu,
Zi Yuanzi, named Zhiyuan, Han nationality, born in 1615 AD and died in 1647 AD, was born in Dongguan, Guangdong.

It is one of the "Three Loyalties of Lingnan Anti-Qing Dynasty" in Nanming.

At the age of 19, he was admitted as a scholar and a member of Confucian students in Guangzhou. At the age of 22, he was promoted in the provincial examination, and at the age of 29, he was admitted to the soil, and was awarded the Shuji of the Imperial Academy.

In the first month of 1647, he fought against the Qing Dynasty in his hometown Dongguan, and won a great victory. He took Dongguan City and captured the magistrate Zheng He alive.

After fighting the traitor Li Chengdong in Dongguan, they were outnumbered and retreated to Xixiang.

After gaining a firm foothold, they counterattacked immediately, and Lian Kexin'an, Boluo, Lianping, Changning, Guishan, and Zengcheng counted places, with successive successes.

The later traitor Li Chengdong once again organized the Qing army to attack and fought in Zengcheng for ten days and ten nights.

Zhang Jiayu was outnumbered. Seeing that the situation was over, he threw himself into the lake and died for his country.

Emperor Yongli of the Southern Ming Dynasty posthumously awarded him the titles of Prince Shaobao, Bachelor of Dongge University, and Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

Soon, he also presented the Taibao and Prince Taibao, the Grand Master of Wuyingdian, Zengchenghou, and the posthumous title of "Wenlie".

Chen Zizhuang,
Zi Jisheng, named Qiutao, Han nationality, was born in 1596 AD and died in 1647 AD.A native of Shabei Village, Nanhai, Guangdong.

It is one of the "Three Loyalties of Lingnan Anti-Qing Dynasty" in Nanming.

Jinshi in the 47th year of Wanli.He was edited by the calendar official, and moved to the right servant of the Ministry of Rites during the Chongzhen period.

The Minister of Rites of Emperor Hongguang of the Nanming Dynasty, and the Minister of the Ministry of War of King Gui Dongge.

In 1647, together with Chen Bangyan, they fought against the Qing Dynasty. They first won the battle in Yuzhuzhou and then lost.

Later, he fought against the Qing army in Qingyuan, was outnumbered and captured, and was sawed to death.He is the author of "Yuncong Collection", "Lianyaotang Draft" and "Nangong Collection".

In the old "Guangdong Tongzhi", he was called one of the eight ancient sages in Guangdong. He was as famous as Cheng Min in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Han Yu and Zhang Jiuling in the Tang Dynasty, Liu Yuancheng and Di Qing in the Northern Song Dynasty, Wen Tianxiang and Cai Mengji in the Southern Song Dynasty.

This is the famous Lingnan Sanzhong in history, and there is another Chen Zizhuang who has a job, but Zhu Youjian has not mobilized him for the time being.

Taiwan Province is the largest island in China, and Zhu Youjian knew that it could not be governed by northern officials.

When Zheng Chenggong sent troops to Taiwan, Zhu Youjian had already decided to directly designate Taiwan as a province.

After much deliberation, he finally decided to appoint southern officials to govern Taiwan.

It would indeed be inappropriate for northern officials to go to Taiwan. It may be difficult for them to cross the Taiwan Strait.

Now Daming's economic sanctions against the Dutch have begun.

Taiwan, as the Dutch used to be the center of maritime transportation in East Asia, the Ming Fleet stationed in Taiwan has many benefits, not only has a very important position in attacking the Dutch transport fleet, but also can improve the actual combat level of the Ming Navy.

Zheng Chenggong led the Ming Fleet to conduct training activities in the Taiwan Strait on a large scale, covering almost the entire East Asian region.

As long as a Dutch fleet is found passing by, they will be detained immediately, and Zheng Chenggong will not hesitate to order the sinking of merchant ships that dare to escape.

Since then, within [-] nautical miles of Taiwan Province, it has become a forbidden area for sea coachmen.

At first, the Dutch didn't take Ming's economic sanctions seriously. They thought that Ming was just a verbal warning, and it was impossible to cut off business with them.

But from the third day after Ming issued the ultimatum, Ming really closed all trade ports with the Dutch.

This was a fatal blow to the Dutch and to the whole of Europe.

It can be said that most of the cotton padded clothes worn by Europeans came from Ming Dynasty.

Almost all silk products worn by Europeans were supplied by Daming.

No one there grows cotton at all, let alone grows mulberry and raises silkworms. Of course, there is no way to talk about cotton cloth and silk.

The tea ceramics of the Ming Dynasty have now become the treasures of wealthy families in the West.

Necessities, most of these items are transported by the Dutch fleet.

Regarding the economic sanctions against Ming Dynasty, those self-righteous Dutch people did not care about it at the beginning, and now they are worried. It took less than ten days.

In just ten days, the Dutch fully understood the importance of Ming Dynasty to them.
