Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

Although the loss of soldiers during the three provinces' attack on Taiwan was made up for in the next few years, facing the powerful Zheng Jun Navy, the Guangdong Province, which had already made enough money in Qiongzhou's "real estate" project, was naturally helpless, and even somewhat shrugged off the burden. Hurry up, for this reason, even if Zheng Jun played the banner of the Ming and Guangdong Chief Secretary openly, he would not be moved.

However, the Guangdong Province can ignore the flying of the Ming flag in Qiongzhou, which is across the sea, but the two provinces of Fujian and Zhejiang cannot turn a blind eye to the Chief Secretary of the Ming Dynasty, Zhejiang and Fujian, which have expanded their control areas to land.However, regardless of the rugged mountainous terrain and the proximity to the sea, the Qing army could not eliminate Zheng Jun's power at all. For a while, they could only tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall and mobilize the army to guard against death, but there was still no guarantee that the penetration of the spies sent by Zheng Jun would be eliminated. .

It seems to be a mockery of the Qing court’s hope and sigh. On September 45, 26th year of the Ming Dynasty, Hong Lei officially announced the establishment of Dinghai Mansion on Zhoushan Island. The newly built Dinghai Mansion governs Changguo (Zhoushan), Wengshan (Daishan), and Xiangshan counties. , and took the judge of the original trial, Zhu Chenggong's adopted son-in-law, and Yibin Gan Mengyu as the prefect of Dinghai.Although there are only [-] households and [-] people in the three counties under the jurisdiction of the newly established Dinghai Mansion, this is after all the first mansion under the jurisdiction of the Chief Secretary of Zhejiang Province in the Ming Dynasty. The horn of counter-offensive was thoroughly sounded, and the political significance was inestimable.

Of course, in addition to political showmanship, Zheng Kezang also set up Dongtou Governor's Mansion and Taiping (Yuhuan) County on Dongtouyang in southern Zhejiang, and moved the Fubo Fleet and the newly established Seventh Regiment of the Hailongxiang Division. Stationed in Dongtou, as a base to deter Wentai area.However, considering the problem of communication, Dongtou Dudu Mansion and Taiping County are not under the jurisdiction of the Chief Secretary of Zhejiang Province at this time, but directly under the jurisdiction of Dongning.

On the seventh day of October, the Zhenguo Fleet, which was in charge of cruising the Fujian Sea, sent troops back to Kinmen and Xiamen during the typhoon break. Zheng Kezang immediately re-established the Siming Governor's Mansion in charge of Jinxia affairs, while monitoring Haicheng and Tong'an.In view of the close distance between the two islands and the mainland, the Zhenguo Fleet did not send gunboats to station there, but only arranged for a few notification ships to patrol regularly. However, both islands built new-style bastions as guarding strongholds. The regiment stationed two outposts and two artillery teams on the two islands. If the Qing army waited aggressively, such a support point would be enough to persist until the Zheng Army brigade came to help.

On October 22, Zheng Kezang ordered Zheng Jun's land and water division to reoccupy the two islands of Nan'ao and Tongshan, and set up the Nantong Governor's Mansion, just like the Siming Governor's Mansion set up troops. So far, the two islands have been lost since Zhu Jin's westward expedition failed. Back under the control of the Zheng regime in the Ming Dynasty, Zheng Jun's dagger was further pressed against the chest of the Qing court, so that the two provinces of Fujian and Guangdong mistakenly thought that Zheng Jun's large-scale attack was in sight, and the troops of the two provinces went to the coast one after another. Unexpectedly, Zheng Jun was just bluffing, which gave the anti-Qing rebels in northern and northwestern Guangdong a chance to breathe and go underground.

On October [-], Zheng Jun again occupied the Matsu Islands outside the mouth of the Majiang River, the Sizhe Islands and the Dongchong Peninsula under the rule of Lianjiang Dinghai and Funing Xiapu.These areas were all blank areas left after the Qing army moved to the sea, but due to Zheng Jun's policy of sealing off the sea and destroying salt, they became an alternative and prosperous place to sell gold, and Zheng Jun thus partially realized the strategy of supporting war with war.

"My lord, I think it's time to suspend the attack on the mainland." Gu Tongshan, the commander of the Yingtian Division, said this after saluting Zheng Kezang. "Although the financial resources of the clan are safe for the time being, the food cannot be grown immediately." Gu Tongshan pointed out. "Except for the self-sufficiency of Jinlan, Xiguipu, and Xiboni, all the governor's mansions need funding from the feudal clan, plus the three counties of Dinghai Prefecture, Haitan, Taiping, and Lianjiang. , the expenses of the Shilu mining area." Gu Tongshan reported a number. "The savings in the Changping warehouse have dropped to a quarter of what it was before. Although there are rice supplements from Siam, Annan, and Nii, it will take at least a year to return to the original level. Considering the needs of the Northern Expedition With the rations of [-] Qiongzhou Kunlun slaves for the first year, I thought that there would be no big wars in three or two years."

Speaking of it, this is a strange circle. You must know that if there is no war, there will be no foreign population supplement. Without population supplement, the economy cannot be developed faster and the army can be enriched. Therefore, Zheng Kezang cannot give Gu Tongshan an affirmative answer. He has to weigh all aspects. After the impact, he will do the evaluation again. Of course, he will not ignore Gu Tongshan's speech, so he thought for a moment and responded: "Gu Qing said, Gu knows, and Rong Gu will discuss with the Political Affairs Hall and the Military Academy before making a conclusion. "

Gu Tongshan retreated, but what the next speaker said made Zheng Kezang frowned: "My lord, please establish your son."

Zheng Kezang fixed his eyes and saw Ke Ping's son, Ke Dingkai, the new Secretary of the General Administration, and said to himself with a serious expression: "Although the lord is said to be harmonious, after all, there are differences between the aunt and concubine. Please also ask the lord Establish the foundation of the country early, so as to secure the hearts of the vassals."

Zheng Kezang's eldest son, Zhenguan, was born by Xie Ziling, half a year older than Chen Xianqiao's son, Baoguan, but Zheng Kezang has a soul from a different time and space, so naturally he will not insist on the difference between the eldest son and the eldest son. However, in the eyes of some orthodox factions, this point is rebellious and deviant. In addition, Zheng Kezang's Western Expedition is imminent, so interested people raised it at the court meeting.

Zheng Kezang knew that he couldn't say anything about making his son a worthy person. If he said such ambiguous words, the Chen family and the Chen family's clan would definitely retaliate, and the harmony of the subsequent family would be wiped out, so he We can only use delaying tactics: "Aiqing has a heart, but the son-in-law is still young, and I don't want him to take on the heavy responsibility now."

Ke Dingkai may have just entered the court, so he didn't know Zheng Kezang's temper, but he still wanted to investigate further: "The master was too old to stay in Dongning. Why was the master able to do it, but now the son-in-law can't."

"Back then, there was Mr. Chen's envoy to assist Gu, but is there now?" Zheng Kezang asked coldly, which immediately made Ke Ping a little restless. Fortunately, Zheng Kezang did not continue, just plain Said. "Furthermore, the father did not establish a heir but an elder. In this way, does Gu want to give up his position to Qin She?"

"Minister, minister." Only then did Ke Dingkai realize that Zheng Kezang was actually very angry, and he was too frightened to speak.

"Of course Gu understands that Qing is also out of loyalty," Zheng Kezang said in turn to save Ke Ding. "Xu Shiqing knows that Gu will go west to the mainland one day, and I'm afraid that the rear will be shaken at that time, but now is a troubled time, and only the strong can survive. Since Gu has not yet set off, let Baoguan and the others shelter from the wind and rain for a few more days."

Zheng Kezang didn't know that his statement in the hall quickly caused a storm. There were rumors everywhere in Dongning that Zheng Kezang decided to appoint a new chief. The rumors spread overseas. Hong Lei, Hong Gongzhu, Chen Shengwu, and Chen Mengwei Zheng Kezang, who was so annoyed by this, called all the daughters of the concubine who were fluctuating.

"I must have heard the rumors outside in Anping City, but rumors are rumors after all. I love Zhenguan, Baoguan, Shengguan, and Ningguan all in one, and I will definitely not favor one over the other." Zheng Kezang read it. Look at Xie Ziling, Chen Xianqiao and Feng Lianniang who gave birth to boys for her. "Gu said that those who are strong in today's troubled times survive, and also said that the father and king were not established in the past, but what is power, if you don't speak, use knives and guns, you can be powerful. The power of the world is powerful, and it is powerful to have a long-term vision and penetrate the universe. I don’t think two eight-year-old children can do this.” Zheng Kezang emphasized the two words and eight-year-old, so The women present all understood Zheng Kezang's meaning. Indeed, there is no difference between the two children who are about the same age. If there is, it will be developed in the future. "I have decided that after the new year, I will let Zhenguan and Baoguan change their names to join the Young Martial Arts School."

"Ah!" Chen Xianqiao and Xie Ziling couldn't help but whispered softly, they never thought that Zheng Kezang would deal with it like this.

"Not only Zhenguan and Baoguan are going, but Shengguan and Ningguan will also go when they reach their age in the future, and their children and grandchildren will all go to martial arts." Zheng Kezang glanced at the girls in front of him. "I don't expect the two of them to lead the army to the battlefield in the future, but without a strong body to support them, how will they deal with the piles of government affairs in the future?"

"I know you feel wronged," Zheng Kezang left Chen Xianqiao alone after explaining everything. "After all, the son of a concubine wants to compete with the son of a concubine, but don't forget, Gu is also the son of a concubine." Seeing his wife with a reddish complexion, Zheng Kezang stretched out his hand to embrace her. "The children are still young, let them get points now, why not throw them into the junior martial arts school to compete, as long as they are not too far behind, they will have a reputation in their hearts."

"With my husband's words, my concubine will feel at ease." Chen Xianqiao rested her head on Zheng Kezang's shoulder. "Speaking of which, the concubine doesn't want to fight for anything, but I just feel that my husband has become too wary of the Chen family and the Hong family recently, and the concubine is afraid, really afraid."

Chen Xianqiao didn't say what he was afraid of, but Zheng Kezang understood it, so he hugged Chen Xianqiao tightly: "We are a married couple, so naturally no one will shake your position. Delicate, you have also read it, so you naturally know about the scourge of your relatives, and you think it is better to restrain them now than to leave the problem to Baoguan and the others, and weakening them now can preserve the friendship between the monarch and his ministers in the future."

Chen Xianqiao's mind suddenly flashed those records of swords, lights and swords in history, and she couldn't help nodding her head thoughtfully: "Understood, once my husband said that, my concubine will understand everything."

"It's good if you understand." Zheng Kezang reached out and hugged her sideways. "Miss, give my husband another child."

Even though they are old couples, Chen Xianqiao's face quickly turned red: "My lord, it's still broad daylight."

"What's the matter in broad daylight, it's just prostitution in the daytime." Zheng Kezang bowed his head and kissed the woman's cheek, and the faint scent of a woman made Zheng Kezang's emotions even higher. "Quan Danggu is a foolish king, but he wants beauties instead of mountains and rivers"
