The summer of 1688 came exceptionally early, and in Lin Feng's impression, there did not seem to be any major events worth mentioning in the Lin Han court in these six months; except for a tantrum at Daniel Zhang at the beginning of the year, the internal and external affairs were calm and quiet, and suddenly the New Year passed, and the summer harvest came leisurely, as if China had entered an era of peace overnight.

Of course, this is just the intuitive impression of the subjects of the Lin Han Empire, in fact, the war in the south is still ongoing, Lin Feng's brother-in-law and nephew in Hunan, Jiangxi and the area of the see-saw fiercely, this civil war has become increasingly hot, after last year's years of testing and conflict, with the concentration of troops on both sides, the stability of the political group, now officially entered the stage of large corps operations, the battlefield from northern Hunan and northwest Hunan gradually spread to southern Jiangxi, from a political point of view, Changsha Wu Shiwan group occupies a certain advantage, because it is "orthodox" reasons, He received the support of Shang Zhixin in Guangdong, so he received considerable material assistance, so he was able to rely on the vast rear areas such as Hengzhou and Yunnan-Guizhou to organize and train the new army in an orderly manner, and strive to expand the other side in a protracted war.

Relatively speaking, the life of the Yueyang group is not so good, after a period of "chaos" and "chaos" in the Southern Zhou Dynasty, the current political situation is becoming clearer and clearer, in this kind of struggle between friends and enemies, the officials who originally maintained neutrality and left and right can no longer be detached, in fact, both sides have lost patience at this time, and the means have changed from the original bribery and sealing of officials to military "coercion". It's self-defeating, maybe one morning when you wake up, the army of one side has already quietly driven over.

So in this case, according to the tradition of Chinese politics, most Confucian officials should have chosen Changsha "orthodoxy", so Lin Feng's brother-in-law became more and more isolated, the only thing to be thankful for is that his side has a battlefield advantage, compared to the Changsha group, the Yueyang group has a deep influence in the military, and Xia Guoxiang himself is a general, so the large military legacy left by Wu Sangui accounts for a large share, especially the Yangtze River defense line' The vast majority of the elite troops fell into the hands of the Yueyang Group.

However, despite this, the Lin Han Empire is still not very optimistic about His Majesty the brother-in-law, according to the deduction and analysis of the General Staff of the Han Army, the only chance for the Yueyang Group to win is the moment of the coup d'état last year, if it can organize an 'elite' rapid reaction force to attack Changsha and put the center of the imperial court into control, then Wu Shiwan will never turn over, but according to the current way of playing, even if he can be strong for a while, it will be a matter of time before the army is defeated and killed.

Of course, all this is just talk on paper, in fact, in the serious and harsh military struggle, any accident can happen, in fact, this kind of domestic violence in the Southern Zhou Dynasty is not uncommon, such as the beginning of the "Jingyan change", and Wu's uncle and nephew are the same, if you calculate according to the sand table deduction on paper, Ming Chengzu didn't know how many times he died, no matter how you look at him, he has no chance of victory, but it is to smash Jiankang to the throne as the emperor, which makes people foam at the mouth and spasm.

However, although the situation is changeable, the fate of the two vassal kings of the puppet Qing Dynasty can be affirmed by everyone, according to the current trend of development, these two Tunguska boars are absolutely dead, the only variable is that I don't know which one took off their heads, with the famous 'spring' palace painting "Qing Court Secret Record" all the way to popularity, Aixin Jueluo is completely shaken, compared to Wu Tenglan, Xiao Zeyuan is not inferior' Color', it can be said that everyone in the north and south of the river knows, and because of the official technical support provided by the Han Army, this set of paintings has been out of the "Jianzhou Chronicles", "Shengjing Past", "Jinghua 'Spring' Dream" and "Shufangzhai Eighteen Gege" and other series, with printing 'fine' beauty, 'color' color and bizarre posture well-known in the industry, and the characters have also developed from a single Dol Roll, big 'jade' to include Nurhachi, Zhuying, Daishan and Huanzhu, Ziwei and countless other 'women' really strange Female', the scene from double to multi-person, and then from male 'female' to human beast, in short, colorful and breathtaking.

Now this matter has gradually derived a culture, infiltrating into the two-person turn, commenting, cross talk, storytelling, and other industries, Beijing, Tianjin, Baoding and the vast south, all parties of the business 'Jing' Ying have followed one after another, and successively launched the "Eight Banners Pavilion", "'Nu' Zhenlou" and other famous brothels, many local dialects have added new words, prostitutes 'women' are now collectively referred to as "Gege", as soon as the prostitutes enter the 'door', the big teapot immediately shouts "XX Brother arrives!" ——", and then "Mama" immediately stepped forward to greet the guests, and the royal style was unobstructed.

In this context, who dares to give the two puppet vassal kings to sell their lives that is definitely a nervous 'sex' disorder', with the advancement of the Lin Han Empire's "accumulation" order, the Qing army's remaining Zhejiang, Jiangsu provinces have begun a vigorous braid-cutting movement, no one supervises and no one urges, first the major merchants take the lead, and then the gentry and gentry around the country have followed up, and then the majority of the people do not understand whether they swarm to follow the trend, the Qing army around the country turned a blind eye, and a few days later, the vast number of Eight Banners soldiers were surprised to find that they were stationed to monitor the green camp Han' The traitorous troops suddenly lost their braids, and they were arrogant and unscrupulous, and the officers of the Eight Banners who led the team beat drums in their hearts, not to mention asking whether they were guilty or not, and hurriedly deployed their defenses overnight to avoid mutiny.

Beginning in the autumn of 1687, officials in the prefectures of Zhejiang and Jiangsu began to withhold taxes, and selectively refused the official orders issued by Rabu and Jieshu.

After the summer harvest, the Han army carried out a series of deployment adjustments, and the westward march of the Rick Corps followed the Yellow River to the east after the year, and gradually moved towards the northwestern border of Hubei, and the corps headquarters was set up in Xunyang Mansion; In the spring of 1688, the General Staff reported to the King of Han for approval, and the edict gave four new army numbers, and last year more than 12,000 soldiers recruited from Ningjin, Nuergan, Chahar and Rehe were assembled at the Luanzhou Military Station by the state capitals to establish the 14th Army of the Han Provisional Cavalry, and Mu Tianyan, chief of staff of the Guards Army, was transferred from the Guards system and reassigned the title of "General Rulin Zhonglang" and served as the commander of the 14th Cavalry Corps; Shandong Province established the 15th Army and the 16th Provisional Army of the Han Infantry at the Jinan Military Station and the Qingzhou Military Station respectively; After more than a year of reorganization, transformation, and blood exchange, the Henan Yang Qilong Division, which surrendered to the Han Dynasty the year before last, assembled at the Kaifeng Military Station and awarded the 17th Army of the Han Provisional Infantry, and the famous peasant rebel army general "Mantianxing" Yang Laopi was awarded the rank of Major General of the Han Army, and was given the number of "Yangwei Zhonglang General" as the commander of the 17th Provisional Infantry Army.

According to Lin Feng's deployment, the Lin Han Empire will establish six heavy army groups before officially going south, namely: Western Front Corps, with more than 64,000 soldiers, under the jurisdiction of the First Guards Army (Rick), the Seventh Cavalry Army, the Infantry Provisional Fifteenth Army, the Tenth Infantry Army (Wang Chengye), the Twelfth Infantry Army (Wang Fuchen), and the Imperial Army Lieutenant General, Yulin General Rick? General Rachel served as the governor, and the corps headquarters was stationed in Xunyang, Hubei, Yuanhu; The Central Plains Corps, with more than 58,000 soldiers, has jurisdiction over the Sixth Cavalry Army (Ma Ying), the Eleventh Infantry Army (the former Wang Chengye's old department was reorganized, the Shandong Army), the Seventeenth Infantry Provisional Army, the Sixteenth Provisional Cavalry Army, and the Fourteenth Cavalry Provisional Army; Ma Ying, a lieutenant general of the Imperial Army and a general of the Imperial Army, served as the governor, and the corps headquarters was stationed in Xuzhou Mansion; The Southern Corps, with more than 62,000 soldiers, has the jurisdiction of the Second Han Infantry Army (Wang Dahai), the Third Infantry Army (Liu Lusi), the Fourth Infantry Army (Sun Sike) and the Ninth Infantry Army (Zhou Qiu), with Wang Dahai, a lieutenant general of the Imperial Army and Pingliao General, as the governor, and the Corps Headquarters is stationed in Anqing Mansion; The Northwest Corps, with more than 29,000 soldiers, is under the jurisdiction of the Fifth Army of the Han Infantry (Zhao Liangdong) and the Thirteenth Infantry Army (Wang Pingfan), with Zhao Liangdong, a lieutenant general of the Imperial Army and a general of Koubei, as the governor, and the corps headquarters is stationed in Yuanlanzhou; The Sichuan Corps, with more than 24,000 soldiers, is under the jurisdiction of the Eighth Army of the Han Infantry (Daniel Zhang) and the Tenth Army (Chen Qi), with Daniel Zhang, a lieutenant general of the Imperial Army and General of Anxi, as the governor, and the corps headquarters is stationed in Chongqing Prefecture; The Northern Corps, with about 60,000 to 80,000 soldiers, has under the jurisdiction of the First Army of the Han Cavalry (Zhao Guangyuan), the Sixth Army of the Guards Infantry (Wang Jizhen), as well as the local garrisons of Shanxi, Ningjin, Suiyuan, and Nuergan, and the Chahar Division, the Zhuotusuo Division, the Zhelimu Division, the Zhaowuda Division, the Yikezhao Division, and other 'Mongolian' ancient servant armies, with Zhao Guangyuan, a lieutenant general of the Imperial Army and the 'Mongolian' general of the Ancient Army, serving as the governor, and the Corps Headquarters stationed in Zhangjiakou; The Third Guards Infantry Army (Ma Jinliang), the Fourth Guards Cavalry Army (Wang Zhongxiao) and the Fifth Guards Artillery Army (Yu Chenglong), the Corps was stationed in Zhili, with more than 55,000 soldiers, and the Corps headquarters was stationed in Beijing.

With the gradual completion of the overall strategic deployment of the Han army, the peasant rebel army Yang Qilong, who seized the Jingxiang area of Hubei, became a thorn in the heart of the Lin and Han empires.

Since the Lin Han Empire took Henan without blood, the former leader of the rebel army Yang Qilong has become increasingly embarrassed, at the beginning of the original army, Shenzhou was surging, the peasant movement was in full swing, the situation was very good, his power was once extremely strong, in addition to Henan, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Shandong and even most of the border of Hubei and Anhui were controlled by him, the soldiers were extremely prosperous, no one dared to sharpen their edge, but time has passed, with the rise of the Han army, this situation can not be reproduced, and the Han army is strong. Under the pressure, his forces were driven out of Henan, and he was exiled in northern Hubei to survive, because of the Sichuan War a year ago, his "Han Shunyi Gong, General Annan" was not very eye-catching, but with the flat top of Shuzhong, the Ruike Corps turned to the east, and the Jingxiang area became a big furnace.

Yang Qilong is like sitting on pins and needles.

After several years of setbacks, now his troops are extremely embarrassed, after a hard battle to take Xiangyang, although his territory has been expanded, but the losses are also extremely heavy - this loss in addition to the loss of soldiers and materials, the most serious is the impact of the war 'chaos' on the local economy, the original Jingxiang area has the advantage of the Han River, for the world's thoroughfare, once very prosperous, logically speaking, if anyone occupies this territory, it will be promising, but this does not include Yang Qilong.

At the beginning of the occupation, the vast number of gentry and merchants fled away, and even the vast number of poor peasants fled with the embassy, and the population loss was extremely heavy, and after the place was slightly stabilized, the Jin Hui merchant group, which controlled the economic lifeline of the north, carried out a series of economic blows to him under the instruction of the Lin and Han courts, which made Yang Qilong anxious.

This decline to Yang Qilong caused a blow is too tragic, not only the local fatigue, even the army has been shaken, at first to take northern Hubei, Yang Qilong still has nearly 80,000 troops, but with a series of escapes, mutiny, the total strength of the peasant army has been sharply reduced to less than 50,000, and there are still most of the old and weak soldiers, Yang Qilong is now almost on the verge of decision, needless to say that the confrontation with the Han army, even if you want to attack the Qing army green camp warlord entrenched in Wuchang.

However, at such a critical moment, the Beijing government sent him another shackle of urgency: in the summer of 1688, Li Guangdi, a scholar of the Han Cabinet, Zhou Peigong, chief of the General Staff, Chen Menglei, the inspector of the Imperial Palace, Chen Menglei, the four major scholars of rites, officials, workers, and households, and Xu Danyang, the 'servant' of commerce, suddenly signed a joint letter, and Lin Feng, the king of the Han Dynasty, accepted the order and ascended the throne as emperor.

Lin Feng, the king of the Han Dynasty, was very modest and prevaricated, but at this time, the attitude of the civil and military officials was extremely resolute, and he counted thousands of years of Chinese allusions, and strongly asked His Royal Highness the King of Han to look at the face of things such as "the ...... of the world", "Li Min......" and "the common people ......", and reluctantly become an emperor.

The king of Han was furious, and made a passionate confession in the Qianyuan Palace, and his love words were as sincere as a child, and he scolded the hundred officials for "putting me in injustice".

Li Guangdi, Zhou Peigong and others were unmoved, and generously and wittily had a big debate with His Royal Highness the King of Han, and rejected the reasons cited by the King of Han one by one, causing the King of Han to be furious and waved away.

However, the civil and military officials were united in time and space, and the opinions of the Lin and Han courts appeared unprecedentedly high, when the Han King fled into the harem, the ministers did not relent, and under the leadership of the heads of the ministers, they lined up in a square line on the Zhongnanhai Imperial Road to write a book, and the four ministers hammered the 'chest' and fell to the foot, and the imperial history of the Supervision Yuan cried bitterly, and both soft and hard, and forced the Han King to ascend the throne as the emperor.

The news spread, the whole north was surging, the Han Guozi Supervisor, the Law and Calculation Supervisor, Ma Zhuang Wuxue, Baoding Wuxue and other civil and military students were furious, and they went to Beijing to support the persuasion of the hundred officials, and the Guozi Priest Gu Yanwu, the Taixue Doctor Huang Zongxi, and the Wuxue Supervisor Gao Shiqi pleaded guilty, claiming that "it cannot be suppressed", and asked the Han King to punish the crime.

Before the 'tide' was calmed down, the king of Joseon, the 'Mongolian' Guchahar tribe, the Zhuotusuo tribe, and the Yikezhao tribe sent envoys to Beijing, and the people who performed them cheered "Tian Khan" on the streets of Zhongnanhai one after another, strongly urging the Han king to respect the sincere wishes of his brothers and compatriots of the ethnic minorities and ascend the throne as emperor as soon as possible.

Subsequently, the 'Meng' Gu general Zhao Guangyuan, the Koubei general Zhao Liangdong, the Anxi general Daniel Zhang, and the Yulin general Ruike? Rachel, Ma Ying, general of Pingliao, Wang Dahai and other generals of the garrison in various places sent blood letters, crying blood and playing, willing to ask the king of Han to look at the thin face of the soldiers of the three armies, and do not refuse.

At the beginning of June 1688, in the third year of the Yuanxing of the Han Dynasty, under the strong pressure of the people, the king of Han was forced to ascend the throne as emperor.

The first thing His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty did after ascending the throne was to issue a holy decree ordering the governors of various places to enter Beijing to meet him, among them, Yang Qilong, the Duke of Shunyi of the Han Dynasty, the lieutenant general of the army, and the general of Shannan, was at the top of the list.
