"These two rebellious sons." In the Qianqing Palace of the Forbidden City, Kangxi, who was looking at the urgently sent six-hundred-year-old Yinzhi and Yinzhi's joint memorial, cursed angrily, causing all the eunuchs and maids to bow their heads and hold their breath. They didn't dare to take a breath, for fear that they would become the target of this holy king. "His heart can be punished!"

Don't blame Kangxi for being so angry, you must know that Yinzhi and Yinzhen participated in the whole process of the prince's questioning, and they knew why Kangxi took the initiative to withdraw troops from Guanzhong and Hezhong.However, after the two of them got out of the cage in Beijing city, they changed their minds in the blink of an eye. It was hard to say that the two of them had no selfish intentions in this matter.

Of course, since people are not immortals who see through everything, they will naturally have selfishness, but it doesn't matter if they have selfishness, the key is not to abolish the public because of personal interests, and put personal interests above the interests of the whole.Otherwise, it will not be possible to maintain it at the national level or at the small group level.

Kangxi believed that the two sons handed over by Taoists were not ignorant of the choice.Well, since they knew the trade-offs, Yinzhi and Yinzhen dared to write such absurd request, it was not just a simple test of their own minds, so they should give a stern warning without hesitation.

Therefore, Kangxi wrote in the imperial edict: "How can the national policy be changed from day to day? Such a move is absurd" [

But at this point, Kangxi suddenly stopped writing and began to think deeply. What is the reason that prompted the two sons to write such a rebellious memorial?Kangxi's eyes immediately fell on the map of the world hanging in the hall.

A considerable area on this map has been painted in red, which symbolizes the China that inherited the former Minghuo virtue.

But at this moment, Kangxi didn't have the time to lament the fall of the great country. His eyes were fixed on Shaanxi, a province that was extremely important to the Qing court.Yes, that must be the case!Although Yinzhi and Yinzhen peeped at the prince's position, they were not pointing their sword at themselves, but were wooing Yinhu from Shanxi Province through emigration.

Having figured this out, Kangxi felt relieved for a while, since it was a battle between the princes, he could just watch the fire from the other side.

No, no, no!Kangxi's thoughts changed sharply. He felt that it was not enough to just watch the fire from the other side. He had to add a handful of firewood so that he could make gold in the fire, so as to pick a suitable heir and continue the rule of the Qing Dynasty in China.

So Kangxi tore up what he had just written, and then slowly wrote two edicts with completely opposite meanings on the paper.

These two edicts were all for Yinhu, and one of them read: "Bei Zi Yinhu, who condoned the officials of the Western Province to practice the tyranny of the disabled people, will be arrested by the imperial guards and brought back to Beijing, and handed over to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for confinement."

Another one wrote: "Bei Zi Yinhu, who is able to handle errands, will be promoted to Dorobeile immediately after writing, and stay in Shanxi to help with the aftermath."

After finishing writing, Kangxi picked up the last edict and handed it to Li Dequan, the chief servant: "This edict will be handed over to the cabinet to make the world bright."

Li Dequan took the order to leave, and Kangxi immediately shouted to the door: "Chuan Buerlen."

The first imperial guard came in quickly to see him, and Kangxi ordered: "You take this edict to see Lao Ba secretly. Remember, walk slowly. It is best to wait for the imperial edict to be issued to the world before going to see Lao Ba."

Burlen responded, and then asked in confusion, "What else does the servant do besides pass the decree?"

Kangxi didn't answer right away, and the suppressed silence made Burlen think that he had said something wrong.

Burlen was in panic, so he listened to Kangxi Youyou's order: "You don't have to do anything, just remember to bring back the edict in its original form, and don't let a third person see it."

Burlen led the decree to retreat, and Kangxi drafted a third edict, which was addressed to Yinzhi and Yinzhen: "I understand what you have said. It's good to have this kind of thought. Let's do things honestly."

Maybe it feels a little ambiguous to write this way, so Kangxi further wrote: "From the date of the decree, Bei Le Yinzhi will supervise the affairs of the Shaanxi people and the Jin Dynasty, and Bei Zi Yinzhen will supervise the military affairs in Gansu and Shanxi. There must be no mistakes."

In this way, the military power in Gansu and Shanxi was granted to Yinzhi and Yinzhen respectively, but Kangxi still kept his hand, and he gave Xi Hana, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, an order: "Quickly adjust the green battalion of [-] Sichuan Province to Hezhong, from Zhijun Wang (Yinti) is in charge."

Then Kangxi made an arrangement to the Ministry of Officials: "Shanxi Governor Gali has made great contributions in handling immigration and real border affairs, and was promoted to Governor of Beihe, and the original Sichuan Governor E Hai took over the vacant position; The left deputy of the procuratorate, the censor, was transferred by Liu Guofang, the governor of Shandong; the post of governor of Shandong was promoted by Sai Yinma, the procurator of Sichuan."

After writing this, Kangxi frowned again, obviously this time he was worried about the placement of officials for Fateng. [

After thinking about it for a long time, Kangxi gave another order to the officials: "Half of the country fell, the country is in trouble, the provinces are incomplete, and hundreds of officials are redundant. The officials should consider current affairs and redefine the boundaries, and don't lose the dignity of the country in exchanges."

In this way, the Qing court also began the reform of the administrative regions. However, the purpose of the Qing court's reform of the provincial territory was not to strengthen the central government's control over the local area, but to place more redundant staff to serve as bannermen, Han army bannermen, and those who were close to the Qing Dynasty. The traitor Confucian scholars in the imperial court provided enough channels to ascend to win over the hearts of "scholars".

On February 45, the 26th year of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, after nearly three months of tandem, lobbying, weighing, contention, and crying, the Qing government officially issued an edict, and the original Shanxi, Shandong, Zhili, northern Henan, and eastern and western Liao The vast area within is divided into seven provinces: Zhili, Shanxi, Shandong, Yanmen, Xuhai, Hebei, and Daning.

Daning Province has jurisdiction over four prefectures including Jinzhou Prefecture, Yongping Prefecture (Lulong), Chaoyang Prefecture, Chengde Prefecture, Zunhua Zhili Prefecture, Xinmin Zhili Prefecture, Faku Zhili Prefecture, and Fuxin Zhili Prefecture. There are eight second-level administrative regions including Jinzhou, and the provincial capital is Jinzhou.

In addition to appointing a large number of new governors, chief envoys, and inspectors, the Qing court also appointed governors in two or three adjacent provinces, such as the governors of Shanxi and Yanmen, the governors of Shandong and Xuhai, and the governors of Zhili Governor of Zhili, Hebei, and Daning.Among them, the governors of Shandong and Xu Hai are based in Yanzhou, the governors of Shanxi and Yanmen are in Pingyang, and the governors of Zhili are in Tianjin.

The governor is also appointed, and the garrison general must be next.

On the 45th day of April in the 1000th year of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty and the eighth year of Huaxia Wucheng, the Qing court announced that the three generals of Lu'an, Kaifeng, and Xuzhou would be added to the original generals of Qingzhou.The number of soldiers stationed in the Eight Banners in the three provinces is rated at 500, 200, and [-] respectively. However, there are not many authentic Manchus, and most of them are the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Army.Therefore, under the garrison generals, there are two members of the left and right wings, each of which is served by the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Army.The purpose of these garrisons in the Eight Banners is of course not for combat, but to monitor the local green battalion and the civil and military officials of the province.

On April 22, the Qing government dismissed the Xuzhou camp on the grounds that the Yellow River was flooding and there was room for troops on the eastern front. Except for the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses organized into the River Defense Army and led by General Xuzhou, the rest of the troops were shrunk back to Zhili for reorganization.On the same day, the Qing government also used the local green battalion in Shandong as the main body to train the coastal defense force for anti-landing.The coastal defense force is led by General Qingzhou, and the main force is to set up various fortresses around Denglai and Jiaozhou, so as to prevent the Xia army from implementing the tactics of roundabout landing again.

On April 29, the negotiations between Xia and Qing in Yingzhou Mansion came to an end because of Kangxi's change of mind.

On May [-]th, the Xia army, who came back with a sigh of relief, divided the strength of five divisions into two routes in the southeast, respectively, from Xuchang and Zheng (Zheng) Zhou to the west, preparing to capture Henan Prefecture.But at this time, the main force of the Qing army had basically withdrawn across the Yellow River. Wherever the Xia army went, the Qing army resisted. The remaining Qing officials in Xingyang, Yanshi, Yichuan, Yiyang and other places surrendered one after another.

On June [-], Xia Jun's outpost scouts arrived at the city of Luoyang.At this time, Yin, who had overfulfilled the task of retreating the army and civilians, led more than a thousand palace troops back to Mengjin in his spare time.

On June [-]th, Xia Jun marched into the city of Luoyang, which was ten rooms and nine empty. On the same day, Yin retreated across the Yellow River.

On June [-], the main force of the Xia army that arrived in Luoyang continued to advance westward, and before the end of the month, they took control of Xin'an, Mianchi, Shanxian, Luoning, and Lushi, and formed a new confrontation with the Qing army in Guanzhong across the Tongguan Forbidden Ditch.

On the first day of July, after receiving news of the recovery of Luoyang, Zheng Kezang appointed Sun Yu, the former commander of the second division of the Tiger Guards, as the subordinate of Xijing Henan Yin and Henan Xingyingdu.On the second day, Kangxi also appointed Yin as the general of the town army, in charge of the frontline military affairs in Hebei.
