Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

Zhoushan is located in the northern waters of Zhejiang Province, south of the Yangtze River Estuary and east of Hangzhou Bay. It was called Haizhongzhou in ancient times.The entire archipelago has 1390 large and small islands. It is the largest island group along the coast of China, and it is truly an island of thousands of islands.The main islands are Zhoushan Island, Daishan Island, Zhujiajian Island, Liuheng Island, Jintang Island, etc. Zhoushan Island is the largest and the fourth largest island in China after Taiwan, Hainan and Chongming.

In the 26th year of Tang Kaiyuan (738), the Zhoushan area was first established as a county. At that time, it was named "Wengshan County" because of the presence of Wengshan in its territory.The history of Wengshan County ended in the sixth year of Dali (771), and it was not until the sixth year of Xining in the Northern Song Dynasty (1073) that the county was established again and renamed "Changguo County". "Changguo County" was abolished in the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhoushan has been under the jurisdiction of Dinghai County, Ningbo Prefecture since then (Note: Dinghai was now Zhenhai).After the founding of the Qing Dynasty, Lu Jianguo led his troops to persist in the Zhoushan area for many years. For this reason, although the Qing government moved the sea people into the country twice, it still set up the Zhoushan General Army on the main island of Changguo (Zhoushan) to monitor the anti-Qing armed forces. .

However, there are many islands in the Zhoushan area, and the strength of the Qing court navy is limited, and they cannot control the entire sea area. Therefore, there is a large space for the anti-Qing armed forces to be active.Among them, Fang Xipeng and Zhou Yunlong, Zhang Huangyan's former minions, were the most powerful, "both numbered thousands of people". In this regard, Zheng Jing once tried to appease them. However, since Ming Zheng's focus has always been in Fujian and Guangdong, Fang and Zhou The two parts are unwilling to leave the root, so the relationship between the two parties is not close

"Head, a Tartar division ship is coming." On a lonely fishing boat not far from a certain reef, several fishermen who were supposed to be scattered now held swords and guns in their hands. "What should we do?"

"Don't panic!" Liu Ling (recommended by You Longling), whose skin was darkened by the sea breeze, cast a cold glance at the black spot in the distance. "It's still too late, I will accept it first, and then lead this group of dog traitors to the island and reef."

This side was tidying up, and there was also movement on the sea. Soon, the other party turned and drove towards this side.Since the Qing army's ships had two masts, they were much faster than the fishing boats with only one sail and half thatched hard sail, so just after Liu Ling and the others sailed into the island, the Qing army's division ships chased after them.

"My lord, the rebellious party has come to the island." Seeing a group of people waiting to leave the fishing boat on the shore, and hurriedly disappearing towards the reef, the Qing soldiers who operated the boat looked at each other in blank dismay. "My lord, their boat is small enough to dock, but our boat is big, in case it hits a reef"

The leader, Mr. Qian, didn’t want to let his military achievements go away, so he called out his names: “Mr. Zhou, you take ten brothers to stay on the boat, and the rest will change boats with me. Lair, let's all get promoted!"

The island reef is only a few miles in radius, and although a hill of more than ten feet rises, there are only some low sheltered plants on the hill, which cannot prevent observation and climbing, so Mr. Qian thinks that he has the chance to win this time.

However, more than [-] Qing soldiers successively transferred to the island in small boats, but they never thought that Liu Ling had already dived from the other side of the reef with a few well-developed rebels, and approached quietly. The division ship of the Qing army.

"What's the movement!" Zhou Bazong, who was staying behind, seemed to hear the sound of climbing, but when he turned his head to watch just now, he only saw a group of afterimages rushing into his arms, and at the same time, a burst of severe pain came over, and the pain was overwhelming. he yelled. "careful"

But it was too late. Liu Ling, who had snatched the big knife from Mr. Zhou, swung it left and right, and immediately brought down two more. When the Qing soldiers who had only paid attention to the situation on the island came to their senses, the other four rebels followed suit. Climb aboard the division ship.

Of course, the Qing army still has an advantage in numbers, but if you come over with a knife, I will not avoid it, and then slash back with a knife. The Qing army who only knows how to bully the few can't bear it. rise.In this way, under the tactic of exchanging injuries for lives, the battle ended quickly, and the rebel army, who suffered one death, one serious injury and three minor injuries, quickly cleared the remaining enemies on the division ship.

"Pike, go find medicine to stop Lao Gen's bleeding," Liu Ling ordered quickly, and at the same time poured a bucket of sea water straight on his bloody wound, grinning in pain, he He also caught a glimpse of the Frangler cannon on the bow of the division ship. "Xiao Dao came here to lend a hand, and carried the cannon to the side of the boat."

The two wounded from the 600-jin Flang cannon were lifted up. If President Qian of the Qing Army saw this, his jaw would surely drop from fright.After finally completing the transportation, Liu Ling tried hard to aim the muzzle at the reef, then plugged the sub-gun, fired it, and only heard a loud noise, and the pre-set lead in the sub-gun pierced the space and smashed heavily. Halfway up the mountain, there was a big mud hole.

The sound alarmed the Qing army who had landed on the island, and just as Mr. Qian looked back cursingly, he was shocked to find that there was a red light flashing on the side of the ship, and then the small boat he landed on the island was shattered: "Damn it, the rebels took the ship! "

Boss Qian yelled loudly, trying to gather the scattered Qing troops to gather up and run back to the island to use the fishing boat abandoned by Liu Ling to seize the boat, but he forgot that the more people he gathered, the bigger the goal , Liu Ling made it easy to target him.So, after another cannon fire, the Qing army, who had lost its command, ran around in horror and hid.

The sound of the cannons announced the defeat of the Qing army, and it was also a signal to summon the rebels. After a while, the rest of the rebels who found the Qing soldiers scurrying around the island one after another swam over, but what greeted them was not just the good news of victory: "Uncle Ma Dead, Lao Gen didn't survive, he just died!"

"I want to kill all these traitors and avenge Uncle Ma and the others!" A fifteen or sixteen-year-old volunteer rushed towards the Fran cannon on the side of the ship with tears in his eyes. "Brother, teach me how to fire a cannon, I want to blast these bastards to death!"

"Liu Xiang (recommended by You Longling), don't bother," Liu Ling shook her head. "There are only four blunderbusses on board, and I have already fired three just now." Naturally, one cannon could not kill all the scattered and hiding Qing troops. "And we can't die anymore." Liu Ling comforted the red-eyed people. "I want to keep it simple for Uncle Ma and the others. Go and drag the boat we pulled off. If these traitors don't starve to death, let them know the fate of being a lackey."

Although they seized the division ship of the Qing army, but damaged two brothers, the rebels dragged their own fishing boats and were about to leave this water area, but a huge lucky boat appeared in front of them, which was attracted by the sound of gunfire. Ming Zheng envoys.Speaking of which, the Zheng warship of the Ming Dynasty had sailed into the waters of Zhoushan twice to find anti-Qing forces, but the sea area was vast, and Fang Xipeng, Zhou Yunlong and other rebels had changed hidden islands many times, so the Zheng army who didn't know where the opponent was hiding The ship returned without success twice.

"The warship of the Tartars." Since the yellow dragon flag on the mast had not yet been lowered, Zheng Jun thought he had encountered a patrol ship of the Qing army. "The fishing boat is great. It must be the rebels or the civilians who escaped the sea seal were arrested. Go up to it and save it. Maybe you can find the right owner."

Since the canopy and sails of the lucky boat were fully open, Liu Ling, who knew she couldn't escape, was ready to fight to the death.At this time, the impact happened, and the small division ship was knocked into a creaking sound. Liu Ling, who was holding on to the support tightly, spotted Zheng Jun who jumped down, and was about to go up to fight with a knife. Suddenly, he was inconceivable. roared.

"Stop! You guys!" Liu Ling asked, pointing to a group of Zheng Jun's mandarin duck jackets. "Are you the Ming army?"

The so-called keeping hair but not hair, the buns of Liu Ling and others also showed their identities. The two teams with big eyes and small eyes were silent for a long time, and then someone broke the deadlock: "I was ordered to protect the envoys of the Ming Dynasty. Xuanyu Zhoushan, although you have not shaved your head, but you are driving a Tartar warship, and your behavior is strange, what kind of person are you?"

The seven elders and eight young men came to Liu Ling's side and whispered, "Isn't it the Tartars who conferred this to deceive people?"

"Cheating?" Liu Ling's heart turned for a while.But still bowed down respectfully. "The villain is Liu Erlang, a small school under Dudu Ruan's command. He just captured the Tartar warship and is about to turn around." After explaining his identity, Liu Ling straightened his back. "I don't know what the envoy meant by Xuanyu Zhoushan?"

"Bold! A small school dares to intervene in military affairs without authorization." Zheng Junzhong glared at each other. "What should I do!"

"Okay!" Before Liu Ling could speak, a loud shout came from the blessing boat. "Don't be scary, anyway, they will know about it soon." While speaking, a civil servant climbed down from the rope ladder that had just been suspended. "The former Jian Guo King Ning Jing passed away, and the new Zheng Jian Guo knew that you and other loyal people are still sticking to Zhoushan. He was very pleased, so he ordered to recruit the general, the Duke of Zhang Guo, and gave the surname Huoqin to order Zhoushan and give him a house. The two generals Xipeng and Zhou Yunlong are the commander-in-chief." Speaking of this, the civil servant glanced at Liu Ling lightly. "The Dudu Ruan you mentioned just now is Ruan Jixian, the acquaintance of the Zuo Dudu of the Rear Army Dudu's Mansion?"

Perhaps it was because he hadn't seen the majesty of a Han official for many years. When the civil official in a big red robe glanced at him, Liu Ling couldn't help kneeling down, and at the same time replied: "Your Excellency, it is Ruan Jixian, the Governor of Ruan."

The civil official stroked his beard, seemed to think for a moment, and then continued: "Ruan Jixian's reputation as the governor of Ruan, I have heard a little bit about it in Dongning, and this time I was going to give it to the commander of the envoy. , That's all right, you come to show the way, I will first go to Ruan Du's residence to announce the same."

"Go to Dudu Ruan's Xuanyu?" Liu Ling couldn't help showing hesitation when he thought of what his family said just now.

"Why, are you afraid that the official is cheating?" The civil official gave Liu Ling a displeased look. "Forget it, I don't move the big boat, and I only bring a couple of guards to go with you, so you should be relieved?"

Before Liu Ling had time to evade, someone from Zheng Jun's side objected: "My lord has such a noble status. There are many doubts about the details of these killers. How can you take risks yourself?"

"If you don't take risks, how can you fulfill the great entrustment of the Lord." The civil servant insisted, and at the same time, his eyes returned to Liu Ling's face. "Liu Er, isn't this okay?"

"Okay, okay!" Liu Ling stammered. "I have wronged my lord for these two days"
