Kangxi, your Qing Dynasty is dead

Chapter 132 The ghost lingers Ao Weishuai, refined and loyal (please ask for a monthly ticket, please recommend)
General Sun Yanling of Guangxi found out that Wu Sangui was still "very good", so of course he happily slipped back to Guilin to contact the various armies and towns on the ground in Guangxi, and prepared to fight against his unruly wife Kong Sizhen. Like Sun Jiqing, the son of the old king next door, and Wang Fuchen, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, "Living Lv Bu", who is strong and strong.

But these days, the traffic basically depends on walking, and the communication basically depends on shouting. There are not many people who can go to Wuhua Mountain to see Wu Sangui.Therefore, there are still many people who are worried about Wu Sangui's stroke and the court's five-way three-way siege of Yunnan and Guizhou, including the "fine and loyal" Geng Jingzhong.

Geng Jingzhong had already returned to Gengwangzhuang in Fuzhou, and took over the power of his dying father, Geng Jimao, and became the "owner" of Gengwangzhuang. Yes, he is the owner!
Anyway, in Geng Jingzhong's view, the real power of his "alternate feudal lord" is not much greater than that of a manor owner.It is said that he is the "king" of Fujian, but in fact he can't even be the lord of the entire Fuzhou city. What is really under his control is only the East Gate, Tangmen, Jingloumen, and the Water Department in Fuzhou City, up to Fahai Temple. So far, it is almost half of Fuzhou City.

This piece of land was "occupied" by Geng Jimao when he led three thousand flag soldiers (Gengjiafan soldiers) and his family members to Fuzhou. It sounds like a "circle", but it is of course "robbed" if it is ugly!

The half of the city that was taken by Geng Jimao's troops became the comfort zone of the fifteen chieftains of the Geng tribe. Fuzhou people called it "Geng Wangzhuang", and later Geng Jimao's people also called it that way.So King Jingnan became the "Master Gengzhuang"!

Of course, in addition to this half of Fuzhou City, Geng Jimao also (robbed) a lot of "fan villages" in the inner circle of Fujian Province, and distributed them to the [-] brothers under the leadership to collect rent!
After more than ten years of reproduction and forced robbing of women and men (robbed as slaves), the population of Gengjiazhuang has expanded from less than 13 to more than [-]. The business of Gengjiazhuang has also grown from a relatively simple enclosure. Rent has developed into international trade (smuggling), protection of transportation (private checkpoints), protection of commerce (collection of protection fees), casting money for the country (private casting), etc., it is really a wealth of money!

Especially after blasting away Shi Lang, a bastard who didn't do anything for money, last year, life in Gengwangzhuang became even more prosperous!
But what a prosperous and good life, but it seems that it can't go on anymore, because the Yunnan Pingxi Fan, who is the leader among the six Han Fan towns of the four major feudal clans and the two small feudal clans, is about to be killed by the Qing court!
Others don't know Wu Yingxiong's thoughts, but they know Geng Jingzhong who has been playing with Wu Yingxiong's big bear's ass since he was a child!

This guy really wants to be a rich man. If he becomes King Pingxi, then Pingxi Fan will be withdrawn soon!
If the Pingxi Fan is gone, can the Jingnan Fan still exist?

Besides, in order to be able to come to Fuzhou Gengwangzhuang earlier to be the owner of the villa, Geng Jingzhong also promised to cooperate with the court to withdraw the domain!
At that time, he was suspected of having an affair with Oboi, in order to clear up the suspicion, and also to come to Fuzhou as "owner" earlier, he really dared to make any promises.But now that he has really become the "alternate owner" with great power, he is not willing to hand over everything
And there is no way to hand it in!
There are more than 13 people. Among them, there are more than [-] bannermen and young men who have the right to become bannermen!

That is to say, Geng Jingzhong has not fifteen assistant leaders, but one hundred officials, how to arrange this?How many assistant leaders does Emperor Kangxi himself have?Adding one of the three banners will only cost two hundred and dozens of assistant leaders, so you will be the emperor!He, Geng Jingzhong, now actually owns nearly a hundred Zuo Ling. Although there are not as many Zuo Ling owned by Kangxi, the growth rate is high!
When his father, Geng Jimao, came to Fujian in the 15th year of Shunzhi, there were only [-] assistant leaders. In ten years, the number has increased seven or eight times. If this trend continues, in a few decades, all the Eight Banners will be added together. There are not as many assistants as him.

so.
Thinking of this, Geng Jingzhong, who was scratching the abacus beads in the study, picked up a brush, and wrote the six characters of "Tianzi's body and fire ears" on a piece of rice paper!

These six words are a prophecy, and I don’t know where it came from. Anyway, Geng Jingzhong, who likes to measure characters, fortune-telling, astrology, look at Qi, and look at Fengshui, is also very obsessed with the mysterious science of prophecy. There are a group of people around him Good fellow, I liked to study these when I was in Beijing.

After research by Geng Jingzhong and others, the meaning of this "separation of emperors" probably means "two emperors" or "local emperors" who ruled one side separately.And fire ear. One fire, one ear, isn't it a "geng" when put together?

When he was in Beijing, Geng Jingzhong still felt that this prophecy might not necessarily be true for him.However, when he witnessed the "Vigorous Pingjiang Riot" in Jiangsu, he saw the disaster of the Manchu and Qing courts and the government in the coastal areas of Zhejiang and Fujian (his father was also involved!), and he learned about his own life in Gengwangzhuang, Fuzhou. With real strength, he has a sense of destiny.

But how to realize this destiny?

Putting down the brush, Geng Jingzhong's brows became tighter and tighter.

Just as he was frowning, his two most trusted counselors, Li Hua Heng Li Daoist and Yu Renying Master Yu rushed in from the outside like a gust of wind.Among them, Master Yu still held two name cards in his hand. He came to Geng Jingzhong, offered them with both hands, looked excited, and lowered his voice: "Master, look at this!"

"What is this?" Geng Jingzhong took the famous post and looked at one of them first. There was a line of calligraphy written on it. He knew everyone, but he couldn't understand it when he put it together. mean?"

"This is Aobai's famous post!" Yu Renying said Master Yu.

"What?" Geng Jingzhong was startled, "Ao, Aobai came to Fuzhou? He, isn't he in Jiangsu?"

Wearing a Taoist robe, Daoist Li, who was looking a little distracted, "counted" his fingers and said, "My lord, this Oboi just made a big fuss in Jiangsu, and the Eight Banners, Green Camp and local officials in Jiangsu must have Be very careful and catch him everywhere! He must not be able to stay in Jiangsu, so that's why he came to Fujian."

Geng Jingzhong was taken aback again, "What? Obai came to Gengwangzhuang?"

"No," Master Yu shook his head, and pointed to another post in Geng Jingzhong's hand, "My lord, this is the one who came today! This one took two copies of the famous post and followed Deputy Zeng to unify. of."

"This is." Geng Jingzhong picked up the post and looked at it. There was also a line of brush writing on it. This time, he could understand, "Fuxing Daming Yanping Prince's Mansion consulted the person who joined the army Chen Zheng pirate? Head up?"

"He must have gotten together with the third prince Zhu!" Master Yu said, "Zheng Jing used to use the name of the Ming Dynasty. This third prince Zhu is making a lot of noise now, it's the Suzhou uprising, and the establishment of the Tiandihui Specialized in rebellion, and published "The Theory of the World is Public" and "The System of Land and Mu in Heaven", and imitated King Chuang and made a ballad "Welcome to Zhu San". Isn't this the way of Liu Futong and King Xiaoming at the end of the Yuan Dynasty? Even if he couldn't in the end If we succeed, it will also shield us and Zheng Jing from the wind and rain!"

"That makes sense." Geng Jingzhong nodded, and immediately regained his energy. "The third prince Zhu is Xiao Ming Wang, so I am, hehe, I am Zhu Hongwu! No, isn't the third prince Zhu already dead?"

"Nope!" Daoist Nali had already "counted" good fingers, "Master, my subordinates have counted for the third prince Zhu. This third prince Zhu is the third son of Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty. His name is Cijiong. King Ding was born on the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 80th in the fifth year of Chongzhen, he has the life of the Ninth Five-Year King, and his life expectancy is at least seventy, maybe he can live to be [-] years old!"

"The one who died in Suzhou."

"It must be fake!" Li Daoshi said firmly.

Geng Jingzhong thought for a while, "Apart from Deputy Zeng Dutong, does anyone else know that Zheng Jing's envoy is here?"

Master Yu shook his head: "No one knows, Vice President Zeng has contacts with Xiang Xiang on the other side, and it has always been unknown to anyone."

Geng Jingzhong was taken aback: "Does my Ama know about this?"

"Of course," Yu Renying laughed, "How honest do you think the old prince is?"

Geng Jingzhong smiled: "I thought he was scared out of his wits by what happened to my grandpa!"

Geng Jingzhong's grandfather, Geng Jimao's father, the big traitor Geng Zhongming was the first one among King Sanshun who did not end well.And the cause of his death is very strange, because the army took in [-] "fugitives", but committed suicide in fear of crime. At that time, he was leading [-] troops on the way to enter Guangdong!

Yu Renying said: "My lord, the lord is just cautious, not timid."

Geng Jingzhong nodded: "Then I have to be more cautious. I will meet this Chen Canjun in the elephant garden. It is very smelly and no one goes there."

"My son is wise!"

Master Yu and Daoren Li hurriedly offered flattery.

The Elephant Garden is where Geng Jimao raises elephants—others keep pets, cats and dogs. Geng Jimao has special hobbies. He raises a group of elephants and builds a special elephant garden. When Geng Jimao is not sick, he still likes it. Take an elephant ride around the park with your confidant or one of your "overseas guests".

Geng Jingzhong had never ridden an elephant before, and he didn't dare to ride it. He felt that an elephant is so tall, it must be very painful to fall off its back.However, he still fell in love with the tranquility of the Elephant Garden. In the first pavilion in the Elephant Garden called "Viewing Elephant Pavilion", he saw Chen Yonghua who had just come from Dayuan Island, and the Jingnan Palace who was actively approaching him these days. The deputy governor once raised his character.

After Chen Yonghua sent away the third prince Zhu, Wang Zhongxiao and others, he did not stay in the south of the Yangtze River for a long time, but set off to return to Dayuan Island to report the latest changes in the world situation to Zheng Jing.

Of course Zheng Jing is very "sophisticated"!

Otherwise, in history, he would not have seized the opportunity of the San Francisco Uprising to take down Quanzhou and Zhangzhou, and even stepped in Chaozhou. The taking of these sites was all agreed by Geng Jingzhong, and he later took advantage of it. The opportunity of Geng Jingzhong and the Qing army to fight life and death, and occupied a lot of territory that originally belonged to Geng Jingzhong is really better than a monkey!

Of course, Zheng Jing's current situation is very difficult, and he can't survive without being refined.Others thought that he possessed the entire Dayuan Island and had some strength.But in fact, Zheng Jing's site is the one on the southwestern coast of Dayuan Island. As for the other sites on the island, they are all in a wild state of no one's control.The reason for this is because Zheng Jing really has no one in his hands!
The current population of Han Chinese on Dayuan Island is only about a dozen to 20, which is not enough to fill the entire Dayuan Island.

Moreover, Dayuan Island is still a place full of dysentery, and the Han people on the island are prone to die of epidemics. Even Guo Xingye himself died of illness shortly after recovering Dayuan.

Therefore, for the current Zheng Ming Group, separatist control of the island is absolutely a last resort. Seize the opportunity, take a big gamble, and take back your hometown in southern Fujian, which is the best choice!
But now, the battle between Kangxi and Wu Yingqi (Wu Sangui) is about to start, Geng Jingzhong and Wang Fuchen are ready to move, the third prince Zhu Tiandi will make troubles everywhere again, and there is a lingering Oboi who will jump out to make trouble at some point. Isn't this "the world has changed" that Zheng Jing has been waiting for since he was a child?

But the current situation in the world doesn't seem to be big enough. When Kangxi and Wu Yingqi (Wu Sangui) are about to fight, set a fire in his southeast backyard and pour oil on it!
"Chen Yonghua, who was consulted by the Prince of Yanping and joined the army, pays his respects to the eldest son!"

In the viewing pavilion, Geng Jingzhong sized up Chen Yonghua who bowed to him, frowned, and asked, "Where is Aobai? Didn't he come?"

Chen Yonghua smiled and said: "To be honest, Oboi has been staying in the Prince's Mansion in Pingxi, Yunnan!"

"What?" Geng Jingzhong was taken aback, "What happened in Suzhou a few days ago?"

Chen Yonghua said with a smile: "That's what Tiandihui and our Yanping Palace jointly did. The banner of Oboi was only used to scare the Qing soldiers, but it's still very clever! Most of the bastard officials in Suzhou City were scared away!"

"Isn't your third prince too?" Geng Jingzhong asked tentatively.

"That's not the third prince," Chen Yonghua said, "That's just an envoy sent by King Pingxi to Jiangnan to contact heroes from all walks of life, a good man!"

Geng Jingzhong frowned: "The real third prince"

"The real third prince is going to Yungui!" Chen Yonghua said, "King Pingxi is going to raise an incident in Yungui soon, and the third prince is his rightful name, so of course he has to go. But our Tiandihui and Yanping Palace want to Join hands with your son to do something in the southeast in response to King Pingxi and the third prince."

"What do you want to do?" Geng Jingzhong asked.

"Follow the gourd and draw a ladle, let's have another battle in Suzhou!" Chen Yonghua said, "My lord, this matter is not bad for you at all. First, we don't raise troops on your territory; second, we don't need you either." Send people to help us revolt, and keep it safe so that you will not be responsible; third, you can also take advantage of the opportunity of Oboi and Tiandihui to revolt in Zhejiang to expand your military and administrative power in Fujian.

Now Kangxi is mobilizing the elite of the Eight Banners and the Green Camp to deal with Wu Sangui, and he has no spare power to make a big move in the southeast. If Oboi and Tiandi will quarrel at the border of Fujian and Zhejiang, don't you have a chance to show your talents? "

Chen Yonghua's words were quite good, and Geng Jingzhong was a little moved.But he still couldn't make up his mind, mainly because he didn't know whether this Chen Yonghua was reliable or not?So he cast a questioning look at Zeng Yangxing, a veteran who had followed his grandfather and father for many years.

Zeng Yangxing nodded and said: "Master, King Yanping and Chen Canjun have cooperated with us for many years and are very reliable!"

Of course, if it was reliable or not, Geng Jingzhong would not have been deceived by Zheng Jing to so many sites in history!
Geng Jingzhong looked at Chen Yonghua again: "Chen Canjun, my benefits from this matter are not small, so what benefits can you get?"

Chen Yonghua said with a smile: "Of course we have benefits. Didn't you send Shi Lang away and dismiss his Fujian navy? This Fujian can't do without a navy! Thousands of miles of sea, how can we do it without sea defense? "

"Isn't this good for you?" Geng Jingzhong asked.

"There is a better way!"

"any solution?"

Chen Yonghua said with a smile: "Do you think I can be the new admiral of the Fujian Navy? If I can't be an admiral, I can be a general!"

"What?" Geng Jingzhong was taken aback, "Chen Canjun, you want to join the imperial court?"

"No, no, no." Chen Yonghua shook his head with a smile, "Actually, I am already the imperial court official of the Qing Dynasty."

"What? You are already an official of the Qing Dynasty?" Geng Jingzhong was taken aback, "How did you become one?"

"I bought it!" Chen Yonghua said confidently, "I spent money to buy an alternate guerrilla! If you can make meritorious service in Zhejiang this time, please recommend me again as the commander-in-chief of the Fujian Navy. The 'sea donation' can be doubled!"

"It's okay"

Geng Jingzhong is stupid, and there is such a showy operation!

Those who join the army of Yanping Palace, some big bosses of Tiandihui, first spend money to buy a guerrilla, then start an uprising and suppress it by themselves, and then make meritorious deeds and become the general soldier
"Wait," Geng Jingzhong suddenly thought of something, "How long have you been doing this?"

In Guangdong and Fujian, there are quite a few generals, lieutenants, and generals recruited by local tyrants or pirates. If they come from this kind of background, then the strength of the Yanping Palace is much greater than it appears on the surface!
"It didn't take long," Chen Yonghua shook his head, "We just thought of it."

It is true!
Chen Yonghua was inspired by Wang Zhongxiao to think of doing this.In addition, the background Wang Zhongxiao gave him was relatively hard and sticky. He was a spy and he had the military merits of pacifying Suzhou.

And being the commander-in-chief of the Qing Dynasty, you can recruit troops on the territory of the Qing Dynasty. There are too few people on the island, and there is really no way to expand the army, and you can't recruit people even if you have money!

So it is still very interesting to run a general army of the Qing Dynasty. It would be even better if the entire southeast coast of the Qing Dynasty could be contracted!
In addition, the establishment of a Fujian navy general is also beneficial to the smuggling business of the Yanping Palace. The Fujian general went to Jiangnan to buy hundreds of thousands of silks to make sails and flags. This seems quite normal, right?At least Su Song Town on Chongming Island won't come to meddle in other people's business, and if it's a big deal, they'll be counted as one of them!
Make money, don't be ashamed!
