After detouring Shaoxing, Chen Wen returned to Jinhua Mansion for a few days. It only took half a month before and after the war, it seemed a little more lively. It was probably because the group of new recruits recruited to the camp after the Zheng family's payment for the goods was delivered in April.

After entering the mansion, Chen Wen first arranged someone to accompany Wang Jiang to see his mother and wife, and then held a meeting in the conference hall of Duke Xiuguo’s Mansion before he even had time to go back.

"Report to the general that the newly recruited 6,000 new recruits have entered the camp and are speeding up all the time to train."

Chen Wen had already vaguely seen this on the way back. He heard the real answer here and nodded and said, "Training work must be high standards and strict requirements. Even if you have never seen blood, these new recruits must be able to follow orders in various garrisons."

"I will obey the order."

The head of the military training department responsible for training new recruits sat down again, and another general stood up and bowed and said, "Master, can the recruitment of new recruits in Ningshao and the two palaces be carried out?"

The recruitment of a new batch of new recruits has just ended, and the assessment of preparing for the replenishment has also been announced to end. Those who pass the results have already entered the battalion, and those who fail must be trained strictly to wait for the reassessment in half a year. In terms of soldiers, there is no preparation for the replenishment, and the rest is recruitment and selection from the Qing army anyway.

Chen Wen's aides had just made a report. After this battle, Ning Shao was restored and the four Qing troops who participated in the battle were defeated. Among the three remaining green camps in these two prefectures, Ningbo Green Camp surrendered, but Shaoxing Green Camp still resisted in various counties. Zhoushan Green Camp was abducted by the Fujian Ming army. In this way, only the green camp soldiers under Ningbo General Zhang Hongde were barely qualified to accept the selection.

"It's time to start, Ningbo Green Camp will participate in the selection this time."

Hearing this, the officer in charge of recruiting was not as good as that, but the officer in charge of training felt a headache at first glance. It is easy to say that recruiting the recruits are mostly farmers, miners and other men who have been engaged in manual labor all year round, and the experience in the army is a piece of blank paper. However, those green camps are the ones that the recruit training camps are most reluctant to ask for. Not to mention anything else, just to correct their old habits will take a lot of energy.

However, after having a certain scale of iron, appropriate surrender and rebel were also a good way to expand. Zhejiang's rebel army was basically cleaned up by the Qing army in the fourth and fifth years of Yongli. At most, those who went up the mountain to form villages were to evade tyrants and taxes and exploit the people of Qing officials. Zhang Zisheng's horse bones had not yet been reflected. However, Ma Xin and Hu Laijin became camp officials and participated in the Battle of Siming Lake, which would inevitably touch other green camp generals. Although Zhang Hongde's surrender was like this in history, who could say that there was no such relationship?

Chen Wen's will is so the military generals in charge can only do their best to implement it. The general direction of recruitment and training was completed. Chen Wen looked at the inventory sent by the Military Control Commission and the summary of the shortages of various troops, and turned the problem to Xu Yi. [】

"The recruits will be able to go out of the camp in the autumn, and their weapons and equipment must keep up."

"Reporting to the Duke of the State, our Military Industry Department has now manufactured a large number of hydraulic machinery, and the order has been completed, we can make all our efforts. It is the raw materials..."

"Don't worry about raw materials. There are iron ore in Shaoxing, and other raw materials can also be purchased. You just need to make them with all your strength."

"The lower official obeys the order."

"In addition, how to build helmets and face armor; whether heavy armor purchased by Fujian friendly troops is necessary to be equipped; the production speed of flintlock bolts; the production of turtle dove-legged guns; the design and manufacturing of engineer shovels; and what I explained last time, how much has been produced now, and I need a comprehensive report tomorrow."

"The lower official obeys the order."

Next, several other departments also inquired and roughly understood. Those who needed detailed reports were arranged tomorrow before he turned to the Governor's Office.

"Governor Sun, Ningbo and Shaoxing, can the candidates for officials in these two prefectures be decided?"

"It has been confirmed that they are all experienced officials."

"One thing about the two prefectures and wards..."

When Chen Wen said this, all the officials from the relevant departments here were looking forward to it.

The establishment of the new garrison and the demise of the old garrison involved a lot of rights distribution. The garrisons in Taizhou and Wenzhou and the Changguo garrisons in Ningbo were eventually established independently by Haimen, and the jurisdictions of other garrisons were divided into neighboring garrisons. The military facilities, military farms and some yamen under the garrisons were assigned to military towns and new garrisons; while the salt fields, old military households, etc. were handed over to prefectures and counties for handling, many of the old military households became the salt councils of the Yankeshi Yamen.

If anyone else was a victim of this division, it was the hereditary officers of the old garrison and the gentry who invaded the military camp and the Yantian. And they all had to face the "dictatorship" of the civil and military officials in Zhejiang!

Shaoxing and Ningbo, these two prefectures include Shaoxing Wei, Ningbo Wei, Linshan Wei, Guanhai Wei, Dinghai Wei and Changguo Wei and its subordinate garrisons. Changguo Wei was included in Xiangshan County as early as last year, and the allocation of the other five guards has become the key to the next step of dividing up.

"According to the previous year's precedent, we will send someone to investigate and verify first, and then make distribution."

"So, is it still an aide to the Duke's Office, the officers of the garrison office and the officials of the governor's office to investigate together?"

“That’s right.”

"Then the Xiaguan will choose the appropriate candidate when he goes back."

"The same is true for the last general."

Sun Yu and the officer in charge of the garrison took their seats again, Chen Wen asked about measuring land, sea trade and commercial tax, and then he announced the matter of becoming officials under the Zhejiang Governor's Office after training.

However, they did not catch a cold about these civil servants who had to rebuild Dalanshan Ming Army not long ago. Even civil servants from Dalanshan such as Xu Yi and Guo Zhigang were only a little happy about Wang Jiang's return, while others were completely unconscious.

At the beginning, Huang Zongxi and others rebuilt Dalan Mountain. The purpose of the people present was that they were discerning people, and they could tell at a glance. Everyone in Zhejiang knew about Wang Jiang’s financial ability, but Shen Diaolun and others, especially Shen Diaolun, had sent people to invite him at that time, but they hadn’t invited him, but now they were here, and it was strange that they could catch a cold.

Chen Wen did not have any interest in paying attention to the tricks here. What he was paying attention to here was no longer this small area, but the entire four southeastern provinces.

"The civil service training class must also be expanded. If you don't have it, open a night school. Don't be afraid of consuming fuel when you have a lamp. Just don't be able to stop there. Just don't have anyone when you need it."

Sun Yu deeply agrees with this. As a senior official who has been in charge of internal affairs for many years, his vision is no longer the same as that of the past. This year, the Ming army of Zhejiang Province had a nearly perfect start in Ningshao. The military pressure on the northern line disappeared, and he could concentrate more troops to fight to the death with Hong Chengchou, completely breaking the encirclement of the Qing army's heavy army group.

The hundreds of scholars from Jiangxi who came with Zhang Zisheng last year and a large number of backup civil servants trained by civil servant training classes have now graduated, but most of them can only be temporarily handed over to some scattered jobs, and there are not enough vacancies in so many places. But even so, the training work needs to be expanded, because according to Chen Wen's analysis, the areas to be recovered this year are likely to be close to the sum of these years, and it is difficult to have such a dilemma that no one can use.

It was almost time to finish the meeting, and the officials present rushed back to their respective yamen to issue instructions to deal with the unresolved official duties. Overtime was inevitable. Chen Wen also buried himself in official duties, and it was not until the report from the Zhejiang Coastal Cruise Navy was delivered.

"Marquis Dingxi? Zhang Mingzhen wants to enter Zhoushan City?"

Zhoushan Green Camp originally had two battalions of naval troops. In addition to the Zheng family's fleet, Ba Chenggong and his subordinates quickly evacuated Zhoushan and embarked on the way to Fujian. Of course, they finally escaped from Chen Wenmo's clutches.

Zheng Tai left, and Zhang Mingzhen came over. There was only one request to go to Zhoushan City to find his mother's corpse.

Chen Wen had some impression of this matter. Next year in history, after Zhang Mingzhen and Zhang Huangyan joined forces with the general manager Chen Liuyu to recover Zhoushan again, the first thing Zhang Mingzhen did when he entered the city was to find his mother's corpse. However, it seemed that he was not found in the end. Even he became gloomy and died of illness in Zhoushan. Zhang Mingzhen's death was later fooled and said that it was possible that Zheng Chenggong's poison was poisoned, because before Zhang Mingzhen died, he originally planned to hand over his subordinates to Zhang Huangyan in order to continue as the Ming army under the Lu Supervisory State. Zheng Chenggong took the lead and handed over the army to the commander of Chen Liuyu, the highest general of the Ming army in Zhoushan at that time...

It is hard to explain the facts. From a personal sense, Chen Wen came from the Ming Army in Dalan Mountain, and naturally inherited the opposition between Wang Yi and Zhang Mingzhen at the beginning. Through history, Chen Wen was very clear that Zhang Mingzhen was both a loyal minister and a filial son. However, as the leader of a Ming army, the death of Huang Binqing and Wang Chaoxian would inevitably make him feel sad, so he would always avoid intercourse with Zhang Mingzhen. What's more, now, when the cracks between the Zhejiang Ming Army Group and the Fujian Ming Army Group were formed.

"Zhoushan has recently recovered and all defenses have not been completed. Zhang Mingzhen wants to land on the island. He can, and only takes no more than twenty people to accompany him for half a month. Otherwise, I will send someone to find him."

After making the reply, Chen Wen also knew that even if there was only one person, Zhang Mingzhen would definitely land on the island to find his mother's corpse. This was due to his personality and could not be changed. However, following Zhang Mingzhen, he remembered the master of the country again.

Because the two sides had a mechanism to communicate information on information, Chen Wen got the news at the beginning of the peace talks between Zheng Chenggong and the Qing Dynasty. This time Zheng Tai came to deliver the payment, and even told him that Li Dingguo had written several letters, inviting Zheng Chenggong to join forces to attack Guangdong.

Zheng Chenggong and Zheng Tai obviously didn't know that Chen Wen had invited Li Dingguo to Jiangxi, otherwise, with Zheng Tai's businessman style, this matter would not have been explained so clearly. However, listening to Zheng Tai's tone, Zheng Chenggong seemed not very interested in jointly building Guangdong, especially when Geng Jimao was still in Fujian.

It seems that this matter is still developing as in history, but there is another Chaozhou general Hao Jiushang between the two. One of the conditions for peace talks by the Qing Dynasty was to distribute Chaozhou to Zheng Chenggong. After learning the general news, Hao Jiushang had a bright idea and planned to raise the anti-Qing banner again to win over Zheng Chenggong as an ally from Fujian direction.

The current situation in Fujian is very delicate, while the situation in Guangdong is becoming increasingly unfavorable to the Qing Dynasty. However, Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo seem to be still moving forward according to the original trajectory and have not made much changes because of his appearance. Sun Kewang does not mention that if Li Dingguo is really as in history, the Battle of Xinhui would be inevitable, and now he is even more unlikely to help Li Dingguo with his help through Geng Jimao, Zheng Chenggong and Hao Jiushang. How to avoid that tragedy really makes him puzzled.

After thinking for a long time, Chen Wen was a little hungry, so he returned to the inner courtyard to have a meal with Zhou Yueying. People said that a small separation is better than a newlywed. When Chen Wen came back, Zhou Yueying really showed a happy face, which was even more dazzling and charming under the candlelight.

"I have good news to tell my husband."

"Oh? What good news?"

"Eat first, and then talk about it."

The meal was ready, Chen Wen washed his hands and sat down for a meal. The dishes were still so delicate and the taste was as good as half a month ago. After drinking and eating, Chen Wen knew that Zhou Yueying was eager to try it, so he asked.

"I have it."

The woman lowered her head, but the tone revealed the shyness and joy to the fullest.

"What's there?"

As he said that, Chen Wen, who had a little too long reflex arc, picked up a teacup and swallowed the water for rinsing into his mouth. As the air and water in his mouth were agitated, he repeatedly rinsed his teeth. But the next second, when he realized it, he swallowed the water for rinsing in one mouthful.

"Have it?"

"Well, my husband has been on the battlefield for a few days, and I feel a little disgusted, so I found a doctor who said I am pregnant."

In fact, before Chen Wen went to war, Zhou Yueying had such symptoms, such as fatigue, disgust, and some signs of pregnancy. But she was pregnant for the first time and knew nothing about it, just thought it was a slight illness. Moreover, at that time, Chen Wen had to closely monitor the situation around Siming Mountain, mobilize the army, and beware of Hong Chengchou. All her energy was spent on the upcoming war, so she naturally would not distract Chen Wen from such trivial matters.

"Why didn't you send someone to notify me soon?"

"The military is dangerous, and I dare not divide my husband's thoughts because of this."

He got up and walked closer, stroked his smooth face, Chen Wen squatted down on one knee, and said softly to Zhou Yueying: "This is also a big deal."

"Well, I want to give you a surprise."

Of course it was a surprise. On the 8th of August last year, it was June soon. No contraceptive measures were taken. There was no movement for almost ten months. In his spare time, he even suspected that time traveling had affected his sperm quality. Especially Wu Dengke, who got married in February last year, had already had his eldest son in February this year, which made him even more troubled and even more at night...

Now, Zhou Yueying is finally pregnant. For Chen Wen, who is about to have his own descendants, the excitement and joy in it are probably even more emotional than those who believe in the era of being unfilial and having three no descendants, because this child will be a proof that he has completely taken root in this era.

He gently put his ears on Zhou Yueying's abdomen. Even if he knew about it, the two-month-old fetus weighed only a few grams, and he could not hear any heartbeat or fetal movements, but it was difficult to stop him and Zhou Yueying from enjoying this joy together.

……………………

At this time of the next day, the last piece of ruins in the mansion that had not yet been restored, Ni Liangxu was puzzled, but he still came here as promised. However, when he heard the first words of the person who asked him to come here, his hair still stood up.
Chapter completed!
