Yang Minggao was defeated by Zheng Chenggong, and the news that Fujian was almost wiped out quickly spread throughout the land of southern Fujian. In the first half of the lunar month, Chen Yao, the old general of the Zheng clan who assisted in guarding Zhangpu, sent his cronies to the Zhongzuo Institute and asked for it anyway. On the fifteenth day of the lunar month, Zheng Chenggong led the army into the old town port, and directly Bo Zhangpu County, Chen Yaoce opened the city to welcome the Rongqi town, and Zhangpu was recovered.

Yang Shide, the deputy general of Shizhangpu, threw himself into the river in fear, rescued Huang An, the general class of Rongqi Town, and rescued Zheng Chenggong. As he did with Yao Guotai, Zheng Chenggong rewarded his loyalty, ordered the military doctor to treat him properly, and sent troops to protect his family, and awarded him the post of chief overseer. At the same time, Fan Jinxian, the magistrate of Zhangpu, went to the military gate to surrender and ordered him to be treated favorably. Lin Qichang, who joined the army, was appointed to hang the seal of General Ningnan to guard Zhongzhen and Zhangpu in charge of guarding Zhangpu.

Zhangpu County is an important town in the south of Zhangzhou Prefecture, when Wang Qifeng was anyway, Zheng Chenggong had the opportunity to pocket it, but the Qing army was prepared, and the Qing army in Fujian was strong, and the sneak attack could not be achieved and could only choose to give up. And now, the balance of forces between the enemy and us in the entire Fujian has shown signs of reversal, the Qing army is discouraged, Zhangpu County is so easily obtained by the Ming army, and the Qing army in Zhangzhou Mansion does not even dare to let a fart go. Immediately, Zheng Chenggong sent Huang Tingdu, the chief military officer of the Right Pioneer Town, to escort the Left Town and Zhongquan Town into the northwest direction, and it took little effort to recover the county seat of Pinghe.

Zhangpu, Pinghe, and Zhao'an County, which had already been recovered by the Ming army, formed the southern part of Zhangzhou Prefecture. With the comprehensive recovery of these three counties, the Ming army in Zhao'an County, Zhangzhou Prefecture and Raoping County, Chaozhou Prefecture, also became the hinterland, no longer bordering the Qing army, Zheng Chenggong immediately dispatched Yu Kuan, who was originally stationed in Zhao'an County and Tongshan, to guard Pinghe County, and Guo Tai, who was originally stationed in Raoping County, led his troops to Chaozhou Mansion to wait for Chen Kai's dispatch.

On the twenty-fourth of the lunar month, Zheng Chenggong returned to the center and left, returned home with the front foot, and received a report from Chen Kai to exterminate Su Li on the back foot. What this means, Zheng Chenggong is very clear, with this head, the internal turmoil in Chaozhou can be temporarily deterred, and in this way, Chen Kai also has more time to solve the current predicament of Chaozhou.

At the same time as receiving the report, Zheng Chenggong also received Chen Kai's plan to resolve the dispute between the Turks and the Turks. Speaking of which, this method is all based on Chen Kai's huge personal prestige, and it may not be possible to change others, or even change him to do it. This is almost impossible to replicate, especially the three-year period, which is really not long, assuming that Guangzhou cannot be recovered within three years, then the crisis of confidence will make the pressure explode geometrically, and then it is not easy to calm down.

"I hope I'm thinking too negatively."

After the battle of Xiaoyingling, the situation of the Ming army in southern Fujian has been opened, Chen Yaoce's anyway is just the beginning, in the following days, as the panic of the Fujian government and the green camp becomes more and more serious, there will naturally be more conducive to the development of the Ming army. And during this period, Zheng Chenggong didn't mind doing something to add fuel to the fire and speed up the process.

Thinking of this, Zheng Chenggong couldn't help but recall the fall of Chengxiang and the time when the Turk dispute had just broken out, when Chen Kai had not yet returned, and the battle of Xiaoyingling, which he had originally planned, had to choose to give up after careful consideration. If it weren't for Chen Kai's return, if it weren't for the strong advocacy of this trustworthy companion, and without hesitation to take on the burden and responsibility of Chaozhou, there would not be a great victory this time and a great situation in southern Fujian.

Southern Fujian, as the name suggests, is naturally the southern part of Fujian Province. But this is not the end of the world, connected to the eastern part of Guangdong, now the eastern part of Guangdong is the control area of the Ming army, but it is facing internal and external troubles, once it collapses, all his efforts in southern Fujian will come to naught.

But now, with Chen Kai in Chaozhou, he can fight with the Qing army on the battlefield in southern Fujian without distraction. How to toss the Qing army, how to toss the Qing army, now that the southern part of Zhangzhou Mansion has been fully recovered, the next step is Haicheng County, and even Zhangzhou Prefecture. Once these core areas of Zhangzhou Prefecture are captured, the army does not need to rush north to recover the counties in the north of Zhangzhou Prefecture, and directly sweep Quanzhou, and then seize Fuzhou.

The situation is very good, and Zheng Chenggong naturally supports Chen Kai's proposition, because this is not only supporting Chen Kai, but also supporting himself, the two of them are standing on the same front, facing the vicious Manchu Qing Dynasty back to back.

Chen Kai's plan, Zheng Chenggong does not intend to express any objections, or even any ideas. He trusts Chen Kai, and Chen Kai can trust him, which is enough. In comparison, it was a matter that Chen Kai had predicted earlier, but now it is even more important.

Not long ago, when Chen Kai came back, he brought back some of the troops of the Lu Jianguo Dynasty, and thought that Lu Jianguo would soon come to defect. Due to the Tang-Lu controversy, Zheng Chenggong was not very optimistic about this estimate, but with Chen Kai's words, some thoughts inevitably appeared in his heart.

As Chen Kai expected, the Lu Jian Dynasty finally entered Zheng Chenggong's territory Haitan Island in desperation, and Pan Gengzhong, another mastermind who had grown up in the past few years, thought that he could use the official position of the Zongren Mansion appointed by Emperor Longwu to meet with King Lu, so that he could avoid some problems in etiquette. As for the purpose of meeting with King Lu, Pan Gengzhong and Feng Chengshi, another useful soldier, said that they could use this to absorb the Ming troops brought by King Lu, such as Zhang Mingzhen, Zhou Hezhi, and Ruan Jun's troops, all of which were the elite of the Ming army in Zhejiang. Not to mention, at least the ability to fight naval battles will be too poor.

This is also Chen Kai's opinion before leaving, the only difference is that Chen Kai did not mention the things on the etiquette, probably too hasty.

After discussing with these two confidants, Zheng Chenggong sent someone to invite King Lu and his entourage to come to the Zhongzuo Institute for a while. Estimating the time, the first and second days of the first lunar month should be able to arrive.

With a few days to go, Zheng Chenggong planned to take a rest and wait for the Spring Festival before setting out on an expedition to completely overthrow the Qing court's rule in southern Fujian. At this time, Feng Chengshi sent two advices, and Zheng Chenggong was also overjoyed when he looked at it carefully. It's just that one of them doesn't seem to be much at first glance, but it seems that Chen Kai seems to have talked about some things about Japan before, which is a little debatable.

"The matter of minting coins, Feng joins the army, you can start to prepare. As for going to Japan to beg for teachers, I still need to think about it. ”
