The silver seized on the Rose Lady was quickly allocated by Zheng Kezang to Xin Hanliu, but before the money was transferred to Chen Shengwu, he had already appeared in Nanchang with Li Jun's students.

"Akratu, what do you think of the Guangdong Juzi who just passed by?" But what Chen Shengwu never imagined was that he had just entered Nanchang City, and was being targeted by Sablin, the chief executive of the Zhengbai Banner Gate of Manchuria.

"Sablin, I saw it," the general who was born in the Eight Banners of Mongolia replied with a buzzing voice. "Some of his guards must have been soldiers, but it doesn't seem strange. Wu Sangui has just been defeated and the road is not safe. It's normal for rich people to use a few barbarians who are soldiers as guards."

The Mongolian Eight Banners are actually the Mongolian tribes conquered by Nurhachi and Huang Taiji in the early years, and some scattered herdsmen who left their own tribes and went to Manchuria. Of course, time has changed. During the Kangxi period, most of the Mongolian Eight Banners became corrupted like the full Eight Banners. Only a small part remained elite because they acted as executioners and monitors to suppress the resistance of the people in the Central Plains.

"Normal? If it's normal, you shouldn't have traveled thousands of miles from Guangzhou to Nanchang." Sablin sneered. "What is asking for a visit to a teacher, a friend, or an old friend? I think it is clearly a conspiracy. Aklatu, send someone to follow them immediately."

Speaking of which, it’s not that Ha and the second is making a lot of trouble out of nothing. You must know that in the time and space where Fang Ming lived, before the Tong (rule) and Guang (Xu) reigns, the Manchu regime always insisted on unswervingly suppressing the anti-Qing forces among the people. Policy, it can be said that we would rather kill by mistake than let it go.Of course, this kind of suppression was more efficient during the Kangyong period. Since the late Qianlong period, the entire bureaucratic system has been full of officialdom culture of reporting good news but not worrying and making mistakes.

"Sabrin," the strong Mongolian man with the appearance of a savage smiled sinisterly at Chen Shengwu and his party who were going away. "Why bother, just find a crime and arrest them. Han people, if they kill them wrong, they will be fined copper at most."

"Do you know what it means to cast a long line to catch big fish?" Sablin stood on the top of the wall with his hands clasped, his face sinking like water. "Send someone to Guangzhou again, and ask them to investigate the background of this person carefully. You must know that the emperor favors the Han people now. If there is a follower, we will not get into a catastrophe."

Not to mention Nanchang, September [-], the day of the Double Ninth Festival, with the approval of Zheng Kezang, the navy and land divisions launched the largest cross-sea battle. The Zuo Yongwei and Zuohuwei divisions cooperated with the navy All Penghu and Lukang teams and one part each from Danshui and Taijiang teams rushed to Dongtouyang, Zhejiang, and then Zuo Yongwei landed in Yueqing Bay, and Zuo Huwei landed in Feiyun Jiangnan.Since the Qing troops in Wenchu ​​were successively transferred to Fujian, the Qing troops were weak in resistance, and the Zheng army was in a state of invincibility. On September [-]th and September [-]th, respectively, they captured Yueqing and Pingyang counties, and went south to break through the key points of coastal defense. Panshi Camp, beheading the Qing army guerrilla Fang Dong.

Afterwards, Zheng Jun left one department to transport the population of the two counties into Taiwan, and the two main forces began to attack Yongjia, the prefecture of Wenzhou.

At this time, there were only 29 hastily organized civilian strongmen and hundreds of green battalions in Yongjia City. As a result, they dispersed before Zheng Jun's siege artillery fire, and Wenzhou City was thus destroyed.Yao Yi, the general soldier of the Green Battalion stationed in Wenzhou, committed suicide immediately. Wen Chudao Manchurian Manchurian Emang Tai family threw himself into the well. Wenzhou prefect Zhang Jinhe and Yongjia prefect Chu Boming and other [-] officials were captured or surrendered. Wenzhou became Ming Dynasty. It was the first mainland city that Zheng conquered after the Battle of Dongning.

Although Chen Shikai, the former general of Wenzhou and the new admiral of Zhejiang, ordered the Qing troops in Chuzhou and Taizhou to rescue the Qing troops in Chuzhou and Taizhou as early as Wenzhou reported the Zheng army's landing, but the Qing troops in the two places were afraid of being attacked by the Zheng army, so they moved slowly, and finally crossed However, the government circles received the news that Wenzhou had fallen, and the frightened two departments simply retreated to their respective defense areas in the name of preventing Zheng Jun from further attacking and looting. More than [-] people and a large amount of supplies were transported back to Taiwan.

As for Fuzhou, although the news of the Zheng army's landing was received before Hangzhou, except for some people who were shaken by the Fujian and Zhejiang troops stationed in the northeast of Fujian, most of the people in Fujian province breathed a sigh of relief, thinking they had escaped. After receiving the defeat of one prefecture and two counties in Wenzhou in a short period of time, they became flustered. However, Fuzhou did not have an imperial edict from the Qing court, so they did not dare to send troops across the border to help, so they had to watch Zheng Jun go to and from the Taiwan Strait again and again. between

Because Zhejiang and Fujian have a pattern of eight mountains and one river, land transportation is extremely inconvenient, so when the fall of Wenzhou City spread to Hangzhou, it was already September 28th.The new Governor of Zhejiang, Wang Guoan, just received a reprimand from Beijing not long ago, and now he heard that Dayi had fallen, and immediately passed out. A vision of the end times.

On October [-]st, Chen Shikai, who arrived in Ningbo, swore an oath outside the city, and then led [-] green battalions and [-] banner battalions meandering southwards, gathering the defenders and local regiments in Fenghua, Ninghai, Shengzhou, Tiantai and other places to practice armed forces, and when they arrived in Taizhou, The Qing army had swelled to [-] people. However, there were Shujiang, Qingjiang and other rivers along the way, and the Kuocang-Yandang Mountain system lay across. The speed of the Qing army's advance could not be accelerated.

On October [-]th, Kangxi, who was captured by the fall of Wenzhou, was furious, and immediately seized the top Dai Hualings of more than [-] officials below the governor, governor, and admiral of Zhejiang Province, and ordered them to perform crimes and meritorious deeds. Troops were transferred to Zhejiang, and then in order to prevent Zheng Jun from returning to attack the coast of Fujian Province, soldiers from Hunan and Guangxi were transferred to Guangdong, and Guangdong troops were transferred to Fujian to fill the gap. So far, the main force of the Qing army has further concentrated to the southeast.

On October [-]th, the Qing army from Zhejiang Province, which had worked so hard to overcome many obstacles, entered Wenzhou.On the same day, the Fujian Province, which received the order of the Qing court, gathered [-] troops to cross the Zhejiang-Fujian border and approach Pingyang. Two days later, they also regained the relocated Pingyang City. .

On October [-]th, the Fujian Qing army took the lead in crossing the Feiyun River, approaching Wenzhou City through Luofengxianyan, and got the movement of the Qing army on the southern line. One step too late, when he arrived at the city of Wenzhou, the city of Wenzhou with its four doors open was already full of Hokkien accents

Leaving aside the question of how Chen Shikai should deal with Fujian province and give Zhejiang province the credit for restoring the soil, there was an important conversation in Beijing about the corrupt situation in the southeast: "Li Guangdi, now that the sea is rampant and has repeatedly violated the border, the situation in the southeast There is a tendency of corruption, do you have a solution?"

"I believe that the current situation should be Zhu Qin's imitation of the imported tactics used by the dynasty when he defeated the Ming Dynasty." Although Li Guangdi was punished for sponsoring Shi Lang, he was a traitor favored by Kangxi after all, so he quickly revoked the punishment. Walk in the position of Minister of Rites. "Trying to seize manpower to enrich Taiwan."

"These orphans understand." Kangxi eagerly interrupted Li Guangdi's words. "It's still useful to say something."

"Yes." Li Guangdi replied. "My minister thinks that the three provinces of Fujian, Zhejiang and Guangdong should implement the decree of enclosing borders together, and use the method of advancing and relocating fifty miles from Fujian Province to make it more difficult for the sea to seize the population. Of course, keeping it will not solve the problem. For the defense against Japanese thieves, I thought that the Guangdong and Zhejiang provinces should re-establish naval forces, and once successful, the three routes would suppress Taiwan, and they would surely be wiped out in one fell swoop.”

"Sealing the world for fifty miles, my people will suffer in this way." Kangxi pretended to be sympathetic. "How can I bear it?"

"The emperor is worried about the people, but he is a rare wise emperor in the past and present." Li Guangdi first praised Kangxi for a while and then explained it with words that he didn't believe. Of course, he also knew that Kangxi only had an excuse. As for how bad this excuse is, that is the responsibility. He is not in Kangxi. "However, Hai Ni refused to accept Wang Hua's actions to remnant the people. The emperor did this to save their lives. Although there was a temporary suffering, as long as Hai Ni was calmed down, the land and everything would still be returned to them in the future."

"I hope so." Kangxi seemed to express his sincerity. "I have to suffer for my people for a few years. When the sea is wiped out, the imperial court will give the relocated people three years to make up for it."

"Your majesty is wise." Li Guangdi hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed for this kindness that was still in vain. After a while, he got up and continued. "In addition, there are a lot of nasties between Haini and Hongyi, Lu Songyi, etc., and the imperial court can use their teachers to help suppress them. The barbarians are greedy for money, and the imperial court can lure them for profit. At least let Taiwan go."

"Borrow teachers to help suppress?" Kangxi frowned. "The court's suppression of rebellion still depends on the appearance of the barbarians. What's the face of passing the generals out?"

If it weren't for Kangxi himself in front of him, Li Guangdi would have almost raised his forehead with his palm. Yes, he forgot Kangxi's famous temper while talking. This kind of teacher can do what he can't say, so he understands He hurriedly admitted his mistake and said: "What the emperor taught is that this matter is due to my lack of thoughtfulness, and I ask the emperor to forgive me."

"Your Majesty, this is also for the country." Kangxi waved his hand to signal that the matter was over. "Do you have any other suggestions, sir?"

"I believe that the three governors of the three provinces do not interfere with each other. Although it is beneficial to the military of the province, it is like Wenzhou's affairs. They dare not overstep a little bit, but it is not conducive to dealing with Haini's plunder." Li Guangdi thought for a while and added. made a suggestion. "The minister thought that General Pinghai's military should be led by Minister Wang and unified command, so as not to repeat the same mistakes."

"That's a good suggestion." Kangxi nodded. "Order Jie to enter Fuzhou again." Speaking of this, Kangxi shook his head. "The Sea Adversity has not been destroyed for a long time, the imperial treasury is short of money, and it is necessary to send troops to station in three provinces. How much money?"

Kangxi meant to ask Li Guangdi to suggest tax increases, but how did Li Guangdi respond to this, so after a long silence, he said in a low voice: "With Mr. Suoge and Mr. Minge here, the emperor should not worry about small matters of money."

Kangxi looked at Li Guangdi with some disappointment, and then his expression became condensed: "That's right, it's not convenient for you to interfere in this matter, that's all, kneel down."

Li Guangdi, who accompanies you like a tiger, quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, then knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, leave!"
