Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

"The sinful minister Yue Shenglong kowtowed to King Xia for a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand years!" On July 21, the first year of Ming Baokang, Zheng Kezang led his troops to Yicheng, and Yue Shenglong led a group of people to go out of the city ten miles to meet them. Facing Zheng Kezang's Wang Qi, Yue Shenglong, who had already put on a plain dress and cut off his whip, fell to the ground to show his submission to Zheng Kezang and repent for his father's sins. www [New] Novel] "Why doesn't Yue Shenglong keep up, should he stop alone and wait for him!"

Yue Shenglong was shocked immediately, and immediately bowed again: "I dare not!"

After saying that, Yue Shenglong got up immediately, and the knowledgeable people around him immediately led the horse. After Yue Shenglong got on the horse, he immediately said to the people standing below: "Now that we are the king's ministers, this military power is very hot. It's better for you to confess immediately, otherwise it will become a way to bring disaster, everyone, please do it yourself, Yue Mou is a step ahead."

Zheng Kezang traveled northward all the way, and the order was issued like flowing water: "Cui Ping, a member of the Privy Council, was appointed as the deputy general of Fujian; The deputy commander-in-chief and the third division of the Yongwei Army commanded Ma Yiyuan as the deputy commander-in-chief of Huguang, and changed Wang Xinhua to the deputy commander-in-chief of Zhejiang."

Although they are all deputy commander-in-chief, the deputy commander-in-chief of Cui, Zhou, Yin, and Wang is actually the original commander-in-chief, but because Fujian, Jiangxi, Guangdong, and Zhejiang provinces are already in the rear, plus the garrison Not much, so it was dropped by one level in name.As for Ma Yiyuan's Huguang deputy commander, he is the real second in command, mainly responsible for the defense of Sichuan after entering Yichang.

"Cao Zhongying was transferred to the third division of the Longwu Army, and the fourth division of the Longwu Army, the fourth division of the Yongwei Army, the fifth division of the Tiger Guard Army, and the third division of the Shesheng Army were reorganized, Huguang was changed to Hubei, and the new province was reduced. The place where the attached army is enriched"

"Your Majesty," Zheng Kezang had just entered Xiangyang when Huguang General Lin Sheng reported. "The iron cavalry army and the hussars army have recovered the whole territory of Nanyang Prefecture, wiped out more than [-] reinforcements from the Xuzhou camp in the west of Biyang, and captured forty cannons. It can be described as a complete victory. family members." Lin Sheng paused when he said this, and then asked expectantly. [New] "Now that the central plains of the Qing Dynasty are empty, I will ask the king whether to continue the Northern Expedition."

Lin Sheng and others naturally wanted to attack Henan and the Central Plains in one go, and achieve eternal achievements, so that their names will go down in history.However, the original plan of the Privy Council was to recover Huguang, but now it has expanded rashly, and there are still doubts about whether the logistics supply can be supported.

"The family members in Yichang Town were intercepted. This is good news. You should tell Cao Zhongying immediately. However, the Qinling Mountains in the west of Nanyang Prefecture, the Funiu Mountains and Xiong'er Mountains in the northwest, and the Tongbai Mountains in the southeast. "Zheng Kezang stroked his short beard on his chin, apparently hesitant. "Although there are many water systems in Yu Province, there are not many connected to Huguang. This domain cannot use water transportation, so it may be inappropriate to rush northward."

Although it was approaching the summer collection, Zheng Jun could fight the enemy for food without worrying about military food, but gunpowder and the like had to be transported from the rear, and Zheng Kezang was always worried about encountering the opponent’s superior cavalry after entering the plains, so However, he was somewhat cautious about the large-scale Northern Expedition.However, in the first battle of Huguang, more than [-] Qing troops were wiped out, and the hinterland of the Central Plains was empty. If this opportunity was easily missed, Zheng Kezang would regret it for life.

So Zheng Kezang thought about it before and after a while, and decided: "There are a total of [-] divisions in Huguang alone. Keep two, Xiangyang will also keep two, Nanyang already has two cavalry divisions, and the remaining twelve, Qing will take it with him."

Since there is no map of Henan, Zheng Kezang simply explained: "In this battle in Henan, I don't want to occupy more land. I only ask Uncle Sheyang that you should plunder Henan as much as possible to obtain the population on the basis of retaining the land of Nanyang." , destroying Henan's economy, shaking the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, and laying the foundation for the Northern Expedition in the future."

Zheng Kezang pointed at the frowning Lin Shengjie and said: "How the Eastern captives could grow in the past is nothing more than the fact that the old slaves first plundered Liaodong, and then Hong Tai broke through the customs and plundered Zhili and Shandong, and thus gained a large population. The basis for entering the customs in the future. I also acted in the same way in Fujian, Zhejiang, and Guangdong back then, so that half of the rivers and mountains can be recovered today, so it is the same today.

Zheng Kezang continued with a serious expression: "Hubei and Hunan have been fighting for years and have been dilapidated for a long time. Although the people in the three provinces of Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi have repeatedly found out that they have no land, there are still deficiencies. Tens of thousands of people are coming back! Of course, the land reclamation will be costly, so you'd better take the summer grain as well."

Lin Sheng's face was serious, and he lowered his head and thought for a while: "Your Majesty's intention, I have already understood, but the soldiers are very expensive. Once the Qing Dynasty reacts and the army gathers, it will be difficult for the feudal domain to carry out plundering. Therefore, I invite the king The inspection of the new attached army and the expansion of the new division will be postponed, and after Rong Chen brought them into Nanyang, he will expand and attack at the same time."

"Yes!" Lin Sheng was right, and Zheng Kezang would not disagree, so Lin Sheng stepped back immediately to prepare, but as soon as Lin Sheng left, Zheng Kezang sneered. "People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, let's see what kind of tricks you can wait." Zheng Kezang's words were rather harsh, but the memorial in his hand clearly stated that Mao Hongyan, the general soldier of Guizhou, arbitrarily accepted the Qing army's Chongqing army. Zheng Kezang was a little annoyed by the surrender of the town, and then he contacted He Gan, the commander-in-chief of Guangxi, to jointly attack Yunnan. "Cut one by one first and play later, depending on what the orphan is!" Of course, in the face of victory, Zheng Kezang can not care about it for the time being, but this account will have to be settled sooner or later. "Come here, pass on Gu's will, and the shogunate will move to Wuchang."

The reason for recruiting the generals to move the shogunate to Wuchang is because there is no major war on the front lines of Jiangbei and Huainan, and the next major battles will be in the southwest, whether they enter Sichuan or Henan, and they must be directed nearby.Moreover, the main force of Zheng's army moved westward. Jianghuai, Jiangnan, and Zhejiang combined had no more than [-] divisions, while Lin Sheng alone had [-] divisions in his hands, and Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Hunan provinces retained [-] divisions. The strength of the three divisions is far higher than that directly under the central government. How can Zheng Kezang allow the phenomenon of Tai Ah's backlash?

"Tiao Hong Gongzhu came back to serve as the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, and Zhao Huang, the commander of the second division of the Wuwei Army, was promoted to the general of Hunan." Zheng Kezang continued to adjust the personnel layout, replacing these complacent and accomplished old men with the Mesozoic generation. "He Gan transferred to the General Army of Yunnan and the First Division of the Longwu Army to control Kuching as the General Army of Guangxi"

The news of Zheng Jun's victory in Huguang spread like a shock wave to the surrounding area. Anlu Mansion immediately announced the change of flag, and Yichang, Changyang, Yidu County, Yuan County, Guizhou (Zigui), Badong, Xingshan, etc. followed in Zhengzhou. The soldiers of the army also announced their surrender. After a short period of weighing, Hubei Shizhouwei, which was sandwiched between the "Ming" army and the Zheng army in eastern Sichuan, merged with the Second Propaganda and Comfort Envoy Division and the Fourth Propaganda Fusi , Nine appeasement divisions, 26 chief lawsuits, and Santuzhou all professed their ministers to Zheng Kezang.Zheng Kezang immediately announced that Shizhou Wei would be changed to Enshifu, Datian Qianhu would be changed to Xianfeng County, and chieftains and native officials from all over the country would remain in their posts as before.

On July 25, Zheng Kezang sent a small group of troops to go up the Han River. The news spread that local officials in Zhushan, Zhuxi, Fangxian and other places fled one after another. The counties of Xixi and Shangjin sent envoys to contact and surrender.For those who defected to the Zheng Jun of the counties, they did not blame the past, but strictly ordered them to hunt down the fleeing Qing army.So the counties were ordered to guard the roads with the bravery of the village, and checked the contacts. They actually caught Guo Shijie and Kazhu and his party in one fell swoop, and even discovered the whereabouts of Naertu, but Naertu had three hundred guards in his hands. Vulnerable, but it is easy to deal with the opponent, and every time when Zheng Jun heard the news, Naertu and his party had already disappeared.

Although Naertu was not caught, he was besieged many times, and the group of people had to run to more remote mountains and old forests. The difficulties cannot be discussed one by one.Zhu Duna and more than 100 Mongolian guards died on the way because they were not acclimatized, and more than [-] people disappeared in the mountains because they fell behind. and starving people who can fall to the ground anytime and anywhere
