Chapter 78 The capital is Nanjing, and Zheng Kezang becomes king
Chapter 78 The capital is Nanjing, and Zheng Kezang becomes king

In the next half a month or so, Zheng Kezang took the central command and completely captured the entire territory of AH province. Seeing this, the Qing army in Hen Province gave up the idea of ​​sending troops to rescue, and just stationed troops in Hen Province to guard against Zheng Kezang's army.

Almost at the same time, good news came from Zhejiang Province. Liu Guoxuan successfully wiped out the Qing troops in Hangzhou, Jiaxing, Huzhou and Yanzhou, and occupied Zhejiang Province.

Afterwards, Liu Guoxuan sent troops to JX Province, and Chen Jinnan's army flanked them from two directions. It took more than a month to capture the entire territory of JX Province.

Wu Liuqi, who captured Guangxi Province, fulfilled his mission and drove the Qing army in Guangxi Province to Hun Province, occupying the entire territory of Guangxi Province.But in this battle, Wu Liuqi's troops suffered heavy losses, with over ten thousand dead and nearly twenty thousand injured.

So far, Zheng Kezang has controlled a total of eight provinces, which are Taiwan Province, Fujian Province, Zhejiang Province, Guangdong Province, Guangxi Province, JX Province, AH Province, and Jiangsu Province, together with Kangxi's Qing Dynasty, Wu Sangui's Great Zhou Dynasty, and the Three Kingdoms. Divide the world.

Zheng Kezang occupied the eight provinces of Taiwan, Fujian, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Guangxi, Jiangxi, AH and Jiangsu. The Zheng Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty won the sincere support of the anti-Qing and Fuming righteous people all over the world. It has become the biggest confidant of the Qing court at the moment, and it is also the biggest competitor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. There is bound to be a war in the future.

However, due to Zheng Kezang's many schemes before, Kangxi believed that Wu Sangui was his father-killing enemy, and Wu Sangui also believed that he and Kangxi had revenge for killing his son. With the huge threat of the Ming Zheng Dynasty, it is difficult to say stop in a short time, just stop.

The war between the two sides in Hunan and Hubei provinces in Huguang not only did not mean to stop the war at all, but the fighting became more and more fierce.

After the local troops stationed in the provinces of the Zheng Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty entered the five new provinces, Zheng Kezang did not return to Fujian Province with his troops, but led Jinyiwei to station in Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu Province.He also urgently recruited Chen Yan'er, Chen Jinnan, Liu Guoxuan, Liu Zhibin, Zhang Wenjie, Dong Yu, Wu Liuqi and other important officials, as well as civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to come to Nanjing to discuss politics.

All the important ministers, all the civil and military personnel of the Manchu Dynasty rushed to Nanjing Mansion.Zheng Kezang decided that the court meeting would be held in the Forbidden City in Nanjing on the second day.

Speaking of the Forbidden City in Nanjing, it was first built in the 54th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, and was basically completed in the [-]th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty. It was moved to three mountains to fill Yanque Lake. It was the palace of the three dynasties in the early Ming Dynasty for [-] years.

At night, Zheng Kezang first met Chen Yaner, Chen Jinnan, Liu Guoxuan, Liu Zhibin, Zhang Wenjie, Dong Yu, Wu Liuqi and other important ministers to discuss matters in advance for tomorrow's court meeting.

After the servants offered tea and left, Zheng Kezang said with a smile: "Everyone, I want to make my capital here in Nanjing Mansion. I wonder if you have any opinions?"

Chen Jinnan mused, "Nanjing Mansion is the land of ZTE where we expelled Meng Yuan from the Ming Dynasty and founded the country and established the capital. It is indeed appropriate to establish the capital here, but..." He hesitated to speak.

Zheng Kezang said with a smile: "I have summoned all of you here today to gather ideas and see if there is anything I have not thought carefully about. You don't have to worry about it, you may as well speak up."

After Dong Yu glanced at Chen Jinnan, he said, "The establishment of the capital has a lot to do with it. Not only will it consume a huge amount of manpower and material resources, but also our dynasty has just occupied the five provinces, and our foothold is not yet very stable. If we rashly move the capital at this time, I'm afraid neither the Qing court nor Wu Sangui will let us do what we want."

Liu Zhibin shook his head and retorted: "In my opinion, although the concerns of Prime Minister and Master Dong are justified, they are not harmful. The establishment of Nanjing as the capital is indeed of great benefit to our dynasty. The material resources are all worth it. As for the Qing court and Wu Sangui, they are currently fighting fiercely in Huguang, and there is no time for others. As long as I take proper precautions, I think it will not cause too much trouble for my court to move the capital. trouble."

When everyone heard the words, they all nodded slightly, agreeing with Liu Zhibin's point of view.

Seeing that Chen Jinnan and Dong Yu were still frowning slightly, Chen Yan'er said, "Father and Mr. Dong are worried about righteousness?"

Without waiting for the two to answer, Chen Yan'er continued: "Nanjing City was the founding place of the former Ming Dynasty, and it is indeed not the place where our dynasty can rashly establish the capital. The prince is now only the title of county king, and he still lacks a lot of righteousness. As the saying goes, 'if the name is not right, the words will not be right', if we force Nanjing to be the capital, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public."

Liu Guoxuan didn't take it seriously when he heard the words, and said in a deep voice: "It's also simple, as long as the lord becomes king, isn't it justifiable? Now I occupy the land of eight provinces, with many soldiers and generals, its power is not weak In the Qing court and Wu Sangui, Wu Sangui can be called the king of Zhou, so why not the prince?"

Chen Jinnan shook his head and said, "Guoxuan, your thinking is too simple. Who in the world would recognize Wu Sangui as King of Zhou?"

Liu Guoxuan said disdainfully: "How is that the same? Who is Wu Sangui? It's just a capricious rebel. The prince is the successor of King Wu and King Wen. Now the world is now the leader of the anti-Qing and Ming Dynasty. Why can't he be called king?"

Seeing that the dispute between the two became more and more intense, Wu Liuqi interrupted and said with a smile: "What you two said is reasonable, but I think it is not difficult to solve this matter. Tomorrow's court meeting, we might as well invite the anti-Qing righteous people from all over the world Participate together, and when the time comes, as long as we jointly invite the prince to become king, we can be justified. As for how to persuade the anti-Qing righteous people in the world, tonight is still long, and it should be possible to do it."

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard the words, this is indeed the best way.As a result, the crowd left without wasting time, and rushed to the footholds of other anti-Qing forces stationed in Nanjing, lobbying them to participate in the tomorrow's court meeting and jointly electing Zheng Kezang to be king.

On the second day, at the court meeting, Prime Minister Chen Jinnan and General Liu Guoxuan were the first to speak, enumerating Zheng Kezang's achievements and honoring Zheng Kezang as king.

This proposal of the two has won the sincere support of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. If Zheng Kezang can become the king, they will naturally raise the tide, so there is no reason why they are unwilling.

Even if Zheng Kezang didn't want to do the superficial article, he still had to do it, so he pretended to decline immediately.

Chen Jinnan, Liu Guoxuan, and Wen Wu of the Manchu Dynasty respectfully invited again. Even the widow of Wu Wang Zheng Chenggong, the biological mother of Wen Wang Zheng Jing, and Mrs. Dong Tai, who was up to some kind of scheming, also came forward, but Zheng Kezang still refused.

It was not until the third time that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty headed by Chen Jinnan and Liu Guoxuan, Mrs. Dong Tai, and even the various anti-Qing forces stationed in Nanjing jointly requested that Zheng Kezang reluctantly agreed.

Three days later, Zheng Kezang went up to the altar to offer sacrifices to heaven, and he was called King Zheng, and his capital was Nanjing, and he was named Dazheng Dynasty!
