On April 19, 2018, the 9th year of Yongli, Ma Guozhu, the governor of Jiangnan, who had been bullied by Chen Wen from the "Governor of Liangjiang" to "Governor of Shanjiang" by Chen Wen, immediately reported it to the Qing court after receiving the news that Guazhou was lost and Jiang Fang was captured by the Ming army in Fujian. Tianlai Novel. | 2 Next, Zhenjiang was lost, and the Eight Banners were all stationed in, and the military situation was urgently transmitted to Beijing as soon as possible. "After staying for a long time, I heard about the chaos in Jingkou and the capital was trembling. The guests in the southeast were all frightened and thought of returning home, and there were those who cried."

In the Ganqing Palace of the Forbidden City, Shunzhi was speechless for a long time when he was eager to ask for help. After looking closely, his hands were trembling slightly, and his eyes were filled with panic.

After serving for a long time, the eunuchs in the hall knew the nature of the barbarian emperor very well, and they all held their breath, making them not very eye-catching. In contrast, although Wu Liangfu, the most beloved eunuch in Shunzhi, was not as good as this, he did not dare to persuade him. He quickly winked at a small eunuch at the entrance of the hall, and the eunuch ran out like an amnesty.

Before he could, a woman in her early forties, wearing braids and dressed in regular clothes stepped into the hall with a gust of eunuchs and palace maids.

The eunuchs and palace maids who accompanied him did not enter the door, only an aunt who was also in her early forties followed closely. The servants present knew that this aunt had served her since she was a child and was the most favored and naturally unique.

Seeing the woman stepping into the hall under the help of the aunt, Wu Liangfu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Even the eunuchs who served in the Ganqing Palace were relieved a little. Only Shunzhi was still staring at the remarks and sweating, and his body shaking became larger and larger.

The woman from Pan walked in, strode to the imperial case, and directly copied the memorial without asking for instructions. She frowned and looked at it carefully, then threw the memorial heavily on the imperial case.

"It's because of this?!"

Upon hearing this, the young emperor, who was only seventeen years old, raised his head and looked at the woman with a hint of hazyness.

"The emperor's mother."

The person who came was Xiaozhuang, but no one would call her that at this time. The Empress Dowager was the title, and her name was Borjigit Bumubute, the Mary Sue in the Qing palace drama in later generations, the silly and sweet Da Yuer. However, the relationship between the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang and his son was not very harmonious, so later generations would vigorously promote the relationship between her and Kangxi.

Shunzhi and Xiaozhuang's eyes met above the memorial. Soon Shunzhi lowered his head quickly, but his words were definitely called thunder on the ground.

"Mother, let's go back to the outside of the pass."

Unexpectedly, when he heard this, Xiaozhuang immediately slapped the Buddhist beads in his hand on the imperial desk and shouted sternly: "This great country is Taizu. Taizong's gains from all the battles. You are so timid that you want to give up. What qualifications do you have to make a decision for Taizu? Taizong!"

Shunzhi was stunned when he was scolding. The next second, he seemed to recall something that should not be touched. Shunzhi stood up suddenly, and his cowardice just now was burned out by anger. He pushed Wu Liangfu, who was standing beside him, walked quickly to the wall, and took off the sword that had been hanging here for a long time. Then he quickly returned to the imperial case and slashed on the dragon throne that had not yet dissipated with a sword.

"I am the grandson of Taizu, the son of Taizong, and the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. I want to personally lead the army to destroy the pirates, and then eliminate Chen Wen's Zhejiang bandits. The world is mine, no one can take it away!"

From being so frightened just now to being furious, Xiaozhuang knew very well that her son's "Dorgon's sequelae" was sick again. However, the emperor personally led the army to fight, and this was not the emperor who had been through a long battle. It was a big deal. Not only could he not win, but it was easier to ruin major events - an outsider commanded an expert, and it would be fresh to win.

The gentle words of comforting him, but ineffective. Shunzhi did not dare to say to his emperor's mother, but pointed at the eunuchs and said, "Who dares to persuade him, he cut the persuasion into meat sauce just like chopping this dragon chaise."

Seeing this, Xiaozhuang had to order Su Moer, who was serving him, to invite Shunzhi's wet nurse. The woman could always listen to Shunzhi's words. In order to prevent accidents, she even asked someone to find Prince Zheng Jier Harang, the oldest clan king of the Qing Dynasty royal family, to come. She could not really lead the imperial army in person.

Shunzhi's wet nurse was in the palace and rushed over quickly, but the persuasion was still useless. In the eyes of the rage Shunzhi, the emperor and the wet nurse were useless. Fortunately, Jiergalang arrived soon, and he had already heard Su Moer explain the whole story on the way, and he also knew the news of the fall of Guazhou. After entering the hall, he knelt down in front of Shunzhi without saying a word.

"Slave Jirgalang, I am willing to go on a battle with pirates on behalf of the emperor. I beg the emperor to beg for the servants to ask for the request of the Eight Banners' children to take charge of the emperor in the capital."

The Eight Banners were the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, but there was no doubt that even the Eight Banners stationed in various places and the Eight Banners army that went on expedition were all in Beijing, so the emperor must be in charge of Beijing.

Jirhalang reminded Shunzhi that he wanted to lead the imperial army in person, just to prove that he could inherit the industry of Nurhaci and Huang Taiji, so as to ensure that the throne did not fall into the hands of others. But if the imperial army in person, the Eight Banners in Beijing were connected together to establish a new king, then the cart would be put before the horse.

"The emperor's uncle is still sick, so it is not appropriate to lead troops to fight."

From the imperial commander to who led the troops to the expedition, Shunzhi's whispers were relieved, Xiaozhuang and others immediately breathed a sigh of relief. However, Jiergalang participated in military aircraft during this period and knew very well what the news sent back after Yue Le arrived in Jiangnan, especially Hangzhou. Otherwise, Shunzhi would not have let his son Jidu rectify a group of Eight Banners troops and prepare to go south to reinforce Yue Le.

"The Emperor Lao is worried that the servant's health is already very good, but the servant's children and grandchildren are sick, and they are afraid they will not be able to go to the war with the army."

Jiergalang's face was pale, his body was a big lie, and his children and grandchildren were even more nonsense when they were sick. However, Shunzhi did not refute Jiergalang's crazy words. Instead, he pondered for a moment before answering: "Then I will be the emperor's uncle. My cousins ​​and nephews are in peace and well recuperating in the capital. I will send an imperial physician to properly treat it."

"I thank my emperor for his kindness."

Jirgalang replaced his son as the commander of the new Qing army to the south, and there was nothing he could do. Among the clan kings, he was the only one who rose up little by little with Nurhaci, Huang Taiji and Dorgon. Even Yue Le had a low experience, let alone his son Jidu.

But even Yue Le was just a military general when he entered the pass. As the head coach, he only fought against Khalkha Mongolia. However, Zheng Chenggong of the Southern Ming Dynasty, especially Chen Wen behind Zheng Chenggong, was not the Mongolian Tartars. Instead of letting them go south for nothing and "sending off their heads", it would be better for him to lead the troops south personally, and the chances of victory would be greater.

However, after receiving the appointment, he had to keep asking for stronger troops. There was no way. It has been a while since Zhenjiang fell. Moreover, from Beijing to Nanjing, it is estimated that Ma Guozhu, Titicacum and the others' bones used to make soup are tasteless. Even Yue Le may be a dead person.

……………………

Zheng Chenggong's army approached the city of Nanjing, and the Qing army retreated into the city. Seeing this, Zhang Huangyan led his army south to recruit and pacify the upper prefectures and counties.

This is true in history. Now, with the participation of Li Zhichun and He Wangsheng, Zhang Huangyan even marched without any worries. The reason has changed from going to the upstream to recruit pacification to intercept the Qing army reinforcements in Huguang and Jiangxi to recover the upstream prefectures and counties such as Chizhou, Huizhou, Taiping, and Ningguo as soon as possible, and before Chen Wen.

"I heard that Kuaiji Fan always looked at Cangshui with a different eye. If Cangshui goes south, you should be worry-free."

Li Zhichun and the others didn't know whether it was true, but this reason was enough to convince Zheng Chenggong. Now it is the honeymoon period between the gentry of Jiangnan and the Ming army in Fujian. Zhang Mingzhen's army led by Zhang Huangyan has greater freedom. Now the general situation has been established. There are gentry going south to praise the military supplies, and Zheng Chenggong has no way of doing this.

When Zheng Chenggong was still in Zhenjiang, Zhang Huangyan had already left for Nanjing, but was intercepted by the Qing army in Nanjing and retreated to Pukou. As a result, because the news of the Zhenjiang victory came, the Pukou defenders saw that the Ming army was on the Yangtze River. They thought that Zheng Chenggong came to attack them and directly abandoned the city and fled. The eight soldiers under Zhang Huangyan got off the ship and blatantly recaptured a county town.

At that time, a nursery rhyme said: "Is it a tiger? Eight iron cavalry frightened the city to guard the enemy." This shows that the momentum of the Ming army in Fujian swept across the south of the Yangtze River has been formed.

After Zhang Huangyan left Nanjing, he went south along the Yangtze River. On the seventh day of the fifth month, Zhang Huangyan led his army to Wuhu. There were only 3,000 soldiers and only 100 ships. However, compared with the embarrassment of less than 1,000 soldiers and less than 100 ships in history, it was a huge difference. What's more, he also came out with that big killing weapon this time - the manifesto of Zhu Cheng, the Prince of Yanping!

"In the past, the Five Barbarians turmoil in Xia, and they were destroyed after repeated transmission. Now the Eastern Barbarians responded to the prophecy, and it was the time of the 28th autumn. It is true that the way of heaven is good, and people are thinking about the Han Dynasty."

"I sighed that since the Li thief initiated a rebellion, the Shenjing 6 was sinking. The founder was originally an alien, and he was rebelled many times, so he took advantage of the difficulties and stole the Central Plains. His clothes and hats turned into dogs and sheep, and his country fell into Rongdi. Anyone with blood and energy was not sad and heartbroken by the slave chief."

"This vassal state is committed to the will of heaven, and slaughteres the people on behalf of the crime, slept with firewood and tasted gall, and used troops in ancient times. It has been more than ten years since the beginning of life and the truth is difficult to deviate, and there is only one line. This person personally led the master to take Jinling, and was born with water and fire, and restored the majesty of the Han officials."

"You have all appointed civil and military officials, all of whom are innocent people from the Ming Dynasty. Who is not a Chinese gentry? At that time, you are poor and surrendered, and you are entrusted with the captive court. You are not tolerant of your original thoughts? It is natural and the meaning of the Chinese and the barbarians are very clear; the source of wood is the source of water, and the loyalty and filial piety are good and free."

"As for the Liao people, they were raised by our dynasty for three hundred years, and were destroyed by rebels for thirty years. After their grandfather was punished and poisoned, their mother and wife were even proclaimed to be miserable. You two or three orphans were still slaves under your post. Hundreds of thousands of weak girls became women in Hu. How could they wait for the different times? Return to the right and wrong, and the consequences are today. Then Zhang Liang repaid Han and first used the Bolang straits; Zhu Xu returned to Jin and thus achieved the victory of Huai Fei."

"If you are the first to change the situation, or when facing the enemy, you will change the plan. If you are all returning from the province, you will not be reluctant to divide the land and split the land; if you are returning from a town, you will be sure to judge the number of people and be given as many as possible. If you are clean, you will be promoted according to the position and the talent will be promoted according to the position."

"If Mongolia and Jurchens were praised by the country in the world, they were not the same kind. They were covered by heaven and earth, and they also had the same hatred, and they had no two hearts to look at one body. Not only did they stop slaughtering the Han Dynasty, but they were famous for their reputations. They were like the Uighurs supporting the Tang Dynasty and protecting the fierce light leaves."

"The vassal of this vassal is always benevolence and righteous, and rewards and punishments are long-term. Those who have the initiative will be rewarded with exceptions, and those who have the opportunity will be punished with unexpected consequences. A good fortune and fortune will be divided into a slight light; the eternal reputation will be fought for in a moment. The army will no longer be promoted, and the time will never come again, and the propaganda will be announced, and all the people will be informed."

"Respectful and special instructions."

As soon as the manifesto was released, and the gentry in Jiangnan was waiting for a long time, local civil and military officials, while ensuring their own interests, also repented under the inspiration of those "hidden people" and asked Zhang Huangyan to surrender.

"The north and south of the river come back together. The counties are Taiping, Ningguo, Chizhou, Huizhou; the counties are Dangtu, Wuhu, Fanchang, Xuancheng, Ningguo, Nanling, Nanning, Taiping, Jingde, Guichi, Tongling, Dongliu, Jiande, Qingyang, Shida, Jingxian, Chaoxian, Hanshan, Shucheng, Lujiang, Gaochun, Lishui, Liyang, Jianping; the prefectures are Guangde, Wuwei and Heyang, or they may surrender or recover, and there will be four prefectures, three prefectures, and twenty-four counties."

During Zhang Huangyan's march, due to the surrender of some Qing troops and the participation of volunteers, the number of troops continued to increase. In just over ten days, the number of "6 soldiers to more than 10,000" expanded several times.

……………………

While the Ming army in Fujian marched into Nanjing, Huizhou Prefecture was in chaos after receiving the request for help from the Governor's Office.

The destruction of the river in Guazhou can also be attributed to the navy of the Ming army in Fujian who dominated the Chinese Sea. However, in the battle of Zhenjiang, the eight banners in Jiangning were completely destroyed, so everything was very different.

Reinforcements, in principle, must be sent, but Huizhou is not as good as other prefectures and counties in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. It borders the occupied areas of the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang in several directions, and is the area where Jiangnan has been under the greatest military pressure in recent years.

Zhang Yingxiang, the current general of Huizhou, was originally the general of Nanru, Henan. The year before yesterday, Hu Maozhen was promoted to the admiral of Jingbiaozuo Town in Southeast, and he was transferred from Henan by the Qing court.

Huizhou's merchants gathered, which was a very rich place, so it was naturally much better than Henan, where it had been damaged by bandits for thousands of miles.

However, the advantage is not so easy to take, and the pie will not fall from the sky. Before Hu Maozhen's promotion, as a reinforcement to Zhejiang, the Qing army in the southeast faced Chen Wen and was defeated repeatedly, and even Hong Chengchou came was useless. After Hu Maozhen's promotion, Huizhou had to face the threat of the Ming army from Quzhou and Yanzhou. When Hong Chengchou was killed, he became several enemies - Yanzhou, Quzhou, Guangxin and Raozhou. He had already entered the semi-encirclement of the Ming army in strategically. If it weren't for Huizhou surrounding the mountains, he would have been swallowed by Chen Wen long ago.

In half a year, the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang did not attack Huizhou, but Zhang Yingxiang was worried every day, including those civil servants, who always thought that the court would die to fight each other. However, when that day came, Zhang Yingxiang had never thought about dying, and those civil servants did not believe that there would be a few who would really rather die than surrender.

When news of the Zhenjiang victory came, the gentry of Huizhou Prefecture mobilized one after another, just like other prefectures and counties, they ran to the officials' yamen and homes day and night. There was only one thing to talk about, that is, anyway. However, it was not the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Ming Army that gave the greatest pressure to Huizhou, but the branch of Zhang Huangyan, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, who still had a large number of proclamations.

He dared not kill these people. There is no way, but it is still unclear who belongs in the world. Stay at the forefront of a person and meet in the future. For example, the person in front of him is a typical example.

"Master Zhang, the Prince of Kuaiji, has been leading troops since the fourth year of Yongli, and won consecutive battles in Zhejiang. No enemy troops can fight against him. Even elite soldiers like the Eight Banners of Manchuria, there is a crushing defeat at Siming Lake. Even a famous minister like Hong Chengchou, who was extremely intelligent and capable, was defeated in the four provinces and was defeated in attacking Yushan, and finally died in Guangxin Jiancheng. As for Shi Tingzhu, Jin Li, Liu Zhiyuan, Chen Jin, Tian Xiong, Yang Minggao, Liu Guangbi, Zhang Yong, Wang Zhigang, Zhang Jie, Ma Jinbao and other thieves, they even had no strength to fight back."

"It seems that Yanping vassal swept across the south of the Yangtze River, but a discerning person like General Zhang should be able to see that this trend was brought up by the Prince of Kuaiji. Compared with the Yanping vassal who defeated more than 10,000 troops with tens of thousands of troops, the Prince of Kuaiji has always defeated the strong with the weak and the more with the few. The General Zhang should know who is stronger and who is weak."

I met Chen Wen since Nanchang, but Chen Wen did not endorse him any businessmen in Jiangxi. Wang Fu knew that the relationship between the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang and the Longyou business gang was harmonious, and there were too many merchants who had been working with the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It was difficult for him to be valued as a Huizhou businessman with a very small capital. Even the summoning was noted on the visiting post that it was Huizhou talents who barely aroused Chen Wen's interest, rather than that the senior executives of the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang could really trust him.

Assisting the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang to recover Huizhou, this is Chen Wen's condition. The price is very high, and it may even be the price of the family's life, but the profit is rich enough. Wang Fuzhen returned to his hometown in Huizhou with a letter. His father only asked him to wait for the situation to change. He really came to the General's Office today to persuade him to surrender!

"Mr. Wang has misunderstood the person. I do not want to betray the court."

Hearing this, Wang Fu was shocked. His family had already arranged to go to Wuyuan County, which was just recovered by the Ming army. The Qing army in Huizhou had not even had the minimum resistance and withdrew from the area that was more geographically beneficial to Jiangxi. However, he had already put his life on the gambling table. When he really lost, he still felt anxious.

However, at this moment, Zhang Yingxiang changed his subject. "I have long admired the reputation of the Kuaiji County Prince and knew that with his minor military tactics, he was definitely not an opponent of the king, nor did he want to be an enemy of the king."

Don't want to be an enemy?

But he refused to surrender?

Wang Fu's mind was actually very simple, it was nothing more than just riding a fence, but his purpose was to seize Huizhou for Chen Wen, and the Ming army had already entered Wuyuan County, so it was too late to come up with a solution that would be the best of both worlds.

After a while, Wang Fu showed a confident smile and then said to Zhang Yingxiang: "I have a suggestion below, I don't know whether to talk or not."

"Oh? Mr. Wang, but it's okay."

"I heard that Nanjing has been asking Mr. Zhang to help, but is there any incident?"

Zhang Yingxiang had sent out a reinforcements, half a camp, only five hundred people. There was no way, his position was critical, and Ma Guozhu tried his best to ask for help, not to ask for certain. However, once Zhang Yingxiang heard this, he immediately understood what Wang Fu meant.

"Can this happen?"

"I'm not hiding the fact that Marshal Zhang knows him and Marquis Pujiang. Besides, with the token of the king, asking for a personal meeting can always win a perfection for Marshal Zhang."
