The beautiful land of Jiangnan, the imperial state of Jinling.

The winding green water brings a long way to the red building.

When the Ming army navy passed Yanziji, Zheng Chenggong was still a little unbelievable that everything happened.

This is the place where Emperor Taizu established a country after he decided to dominate the world. It carries the fortune of the imperial Ming Dynasty for three hundred years, and it is a shelter and place to support the Han spirit.

When the Qing Dynasty left behind in Nanjing took the initiative to surrender, everything seemed so natural.

Nanjing belonged to the Han family, but now it has been returned to the Han family.

Zheng Chenggong felt that all the efforts he had made before were valuable, and Huang Ming's revival ignited hope again.

Compared with the gains and losses of a city and a pool, the symbolic significance of restoring Nanjing is even greater.

This imperial Ming accompanying party for hundreds of years has been the cultural, economic and political center of the southern Ming Dynasty for a long time, and has a unique and irreplaceable role.

Even if Suzhou and Hangzhou are prosperous and prosperous, they cannot replace Nanjing's position.

The moment Zheng Chenggong led his troops into Nanjing City, he felt that everything was back.

Most of the Qing soldiers in Nanjing were transferred to Zhenjiang by Lang Tingzuo and Guan Xiaozhong, and some were led by Shi Lang to station in Ningbo.

Nowadays, there are some old, weak and disabled soldiers in the city, and they are unable to resist Zheng Chenggong's military attack at all.

Surrender seems to be the best choice.

Faced with these surrendered Green Camp soldiers, Zheng Chenggong was a little confused.

After all, these Green Camp soldiers surrendered voluntarily, and they were all Han people, so there was no reason to kill them.

Moreover, Zhang Huangyan also suggested that these surrendered Qing soldiers be kept and make some gestures to show the Qing soldiers from other prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River.

These Qing soldiers would have a greater chance of surrendering after seeing that the Ming army would not kill surrendered soldiers indiscriminately.

After thinking about it, Zheng Chenggong agreed and ordered people to disarm the Qing soldiers and disperse them and sent them to various battalions to be coolies.

Nanjing City is really too big, even if Zheng Chenggong's 100,000 troops were assigned to various areas, it would not seem too many.

How to settle down after moving into Nanjing is also a problem that has plagued Zheng Chenggong very much.

The Forbidden City is definitely not allowed to go to, it is the exclusive place of the emperor. The rest of the yamen were ruined by the Qing court.

After thinking about it, it is more appropriate for Nanjing Governor.

The Nanjing garrison is divided into Nanjing garrison eunuchs and Nanjing garrison nobles.

This position was established by Emperor Chengzu after he moved the capital to Beijing in the 19th year of Yongle, and was in charge of the various garrisons in Nanjing, as well as the remaining guards in Nanjing, and the protection affairs.

The emperor directly commanded the eunuch.

The garrisons are all the founding heroes and sons of Bo. For example, the descendants of Duke Wei often serve as garrisons.

With Zheng Chenggong's current status, there is no problem with being a garrison minister in Nanjing for the time being.

As for the counselor's office, he is usually appointed by the Secretary of the Ministry of War in Nanjing, so Zhang Huangyan naturally takes the initiative.

He was the Seal Minister of War, the Minister of War personally granted by Emperor Yongli, and was one-digit bigger than the Minister of War in Nanjing.

For Zheng Chenggong, Nanjing is a city that carries countless memories.

When he was studying as a supervisor in the Imperial College in Nanjing, he left behind all his beautiful memories.

The western mountain is so steep, with rocks and sky. The vines hang down the streams easily, and the bamboo paths are slightly cool.

How easy and freehand the poems I wrote at that time were, how wonderful it would have been if time had been forever stopped at that moment.

Unfortunately, life is so cruel. The huge changes that have taken place in China over the past decade have made Zheng Chenggong a little dazed.

People always have to learn to grow up, and the happy young men in the past must also assume the responsibility of the country and the world.

More than ten years of hard work and more than ten years of unremitting struggle have finally received rewards.

Zheng Chenggong is worth his life if he can leave a brilliant mark in history!

As for Zhang Huangyan's mood, his mood is generally the same as Zheng Chenggong.

The goal of half a lifetime will be rewarded, and the feeling of relief cannot be described in words.

After everything was arranged, Zheng Chenggong and Zhang Huangyan led their troops to Xiaolingwei, Shenlie Mountain outside Nanjing City, to pay tribute to Emperor Taizu.

Because the Zheng family respected and supported the Tang Dynasty King Zhu Youjian to proclaim himself emperor in Fujian, Zheng Chenggong was labeled as a strong Tang Dynasty king from the very beginning.

Zheng Chenggong has indeed hesitated and confused.

Today, Zi was supported by Li Dingguo, can he tolerate the Zheng clan who supported Emperor Longwu?

When Zheng Chenggong attacked Nanjing, he really had selfish intentions and wanted to use this credit to exchange for the forgiveness of Emperor Yongli, so that he would not harm his descendants due to factional struggles.

But now that it really took Nanjing, Zheng Chenggong was relieved.

From all the signs, it can be seen that when Zi is a great master of his generation, his mind is extremely broad.

Even the remaining Majesty of the Dashun Army can forgive him, how could he care about the Zheng family's support for the King of Tang?

I'm afraid that Your Majesty will not want to mention this kind of old sesame and bad meat.

Otherwise, Your Majesty would not have named him the Prince of Yanping County.

What made Zheng Chenggong very angry was that the once extremely sacred Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum is now overgrown with weeds.

The stone statues on both sides of the Shinto are even seriously damaged, and some even have incomplete conditions.

Zheng Chenggong immediately ordered someone to renovate the Xiaoling Mausoleum in an effort to restore its original appearance.

Zheng Chenggong made an inspiring statement in Xiaoling Mausoleum.

This is for both the soldiers and the people of the world.

Once upon a time, everyone in the world believed that the Emperor Ming energy had been exhausted, and the Qing Dynasty should replace it.

But now it seems that the Ming Dynasty is still the one favored by destiny. The royal army expels the Tartars and the northern borders still have a great chance to settle the Central Plains.

Taking Nanjing is both a small step and a big step.

Zheng Chenggong planned to use this as an opportunity to issue a manifesto to denounce the Eastern Captains.

As long as this manifesto is issued, countless people in Jiangnan will respond.

Zheng Chenggong planned to give this opportunity to Zhang Huangyan.

Firstly, Zhang Huangyan is indeed better than him in literary talent, and secondly, Zheng Chenggong doesn’t want to take all the limelight by himself.

Otherwise, the emperor would be in a little embarrassed when he was rewarded in the future.

You should understand this principle of being a minister and you must never cause trouble for the emperor.

"Brother Cangshui, do you think that in a hundred years, how will people evaluate us?"

Zheng Chenggong was a little dazed for a moment, and his Adam's apple shook slightly and said in a deep voice.

"Then I don't know. As long as we do what we should do, we will let everything else go."

Zhang Huangyan carried his hands on his back and sighed: "Maybe one hundred years or two hundred years later, people mentioned that we only remembered that we had done one or two major things, but so what? We have fought for the court, the people of the world, and the thoughts in our hearts, and we have given everything. This is enough."

Zheng Chenggong nodded.

"Brother Cangshui said it well. There are 480 temples in the Southern Dynasties, and there are so many towers and rain. Who can guarantee that they will never be forgotten? We live our style and spirit. We are worthy of the sky and the earth. When people talk about this history a hundred years later, they will feel that there are so many men who straighten their backs, rather than a group of slaves who kneel down and seek wealth. This is worth it."
