From the Ninghongbo camp in the north of Guangguang County to Jianghu Mountain, and even since the landing in Min'an Town, the people who have formed a village to protect themselves have seen too much. This is very common in today's China, there are survival, tax resistance, Qing resistance, and both.

There are all kinds of things, and most of their figures will not be recorded in the history books, such as the Siming Mountains and eastern Zhejiang regions mentioned by Chen Kai when he ridiculed Ma Degong, "There are more than 600 large and small, isolated villages, distant forts, and righteous banners; The resources and grains are far away in the sea, and they are not stingy", but what can really be recorded in the history books is only a few of the Dalanshan Wang Yi Wang Jiang, Xue Ao, Feng Jingdi, Xinchang Yu Guowang and so on. More, fortunately, can leave a few words in the county annals and genealogies, and the vast majority of them have disappeared directly in the long river of history.

Traveling to Jianghu Mountain, this place is more than 30 years later, because Jiang Ji and Yang Yibao have been stationed here, tens of thousands, standing wooden walls are guarded according to danger, and after the Qing army suppresses it, Guixi County will be moved to this place. However, at this time, there were many reclaimed fields in the mountains and uphill, Hong Guoyu led the way, and Chen Kai and his party soon arrived at the village where Jiezhong Xi'an camped.

Here, the timbers used as walled walls are sparsely arranged, which is not compact or orderly, but it is still a barrier. At the entrance of the village, men and women, in and out, mostly carrying hoes and burdens, some are walking to the fields outside the village, and some are coming back from there, the only people who have aspirations are these men, women and children, all of them are tied up on the right side of their hair, and more have shirts and scarves, just like the Confucian students who have seen Tao Qian in northern Fujian before, but there are a lot more, as if they are ordinary people. At this time, it seemed that Chen Kai and his entourage had shaved their heads like this, and they were all significantly awkward when they changed their robes and horse coats.

The official office of the governor of Jiangxi was only a large house, without even a courtyard wall, and at first glance it seemed not much different from the humble dwellings in the stockade.

Walking into it, the first-class member of the immortal crane who sat on the top did not look as gray-haired as Chen Kai expected, capable, resolute, and even more courageous in his expression, which was extremely rare among the civil officials Chen Kai had seen.

This military department secretary and the right deputy governor of the Imperial Inspectorate of Jiangxi Governor Jiezhong Xi Jie, the word ten thousand years, Linchuan Jiejiafang people, Chongzhen ten years of jinshi, the first entry into the officialdom in Fujian Funing Prefecture as the governor, for the official honesty, the people's feelings, leniency and strictness, has the reputation of "a clear like water love like spring". The Qing army entered the customs and revealed Chongxi all the way, all because of the anti-Qing incident. His attitude was firm, and he dared to fight side by side with his soldiers when he fought, and gradually won the trust of the two emperors of Longwu and Yongli, the imperial court, and the Ming army and the righteous army from all walks of life in Jiangxi.

Regarding Chen Kai's arrival, Jie Chongxi had already gotten the news, but this time he specially put down his official duties and waited here, but it was because Hong Guoyu reported Chen Kai's name. At this moment, seeing Chen Kai entering, he was courteous and ceremonial, and he didn't hold it up, so he stood up and helped Chen Kai up with his own hands, and then introduced it to everyone present: "This is Chen Kai Chen Governor, who saved hundreds of thousands of people in Guangzhou!" ”

With a "huh", everyone stood up in shock, but Hong Guoyu seemed to be a little unclear. Chen Kai's name they have not heard, but the impression is not deep, but it is revealed that a few days ago, a messenger from the imperial court rushed to proclaim this incident when he came to comfort him, and he had not had time to say that with Hong Guoyu, Chen Kai's deity was the first to arrive in Jiangxi.

"Don't dare, it's just the right time to get off the official."

"Governor Chen is too modest, isn't it as simple as the right time, Du Yonghe's bullet chapter clearly says that Your Excellency is deliberate."

"Hey, I knew that Du Yonghe wouldn't make me happy."

Chen Kai's face was helpless, but he laughed and said: "In this world, if there are a few more people like Governor Chen, who are bent on doing good deeds, doing good deeds, and doing great things, the dynasty will not fall to the point where it is today." What I'm interested in is whether Governor Chen's visit here is also deliberately to relieve the distress of my Jiangxi Wang Shi and the people of Jiangxi? ”

"What the army said is very true, and we also want to hear the high opinion of Governor Chen."

"That's a great deal."

Jie Chongxi is not like other civil officials, maybe he has been in contact with the military generals for a long time, or he is originally bold, and he talked about it loudly at this moment, without half a bit of twisting, it seems that he really wants to hear the thoughts of Chen Kai, a character who has created miracles, and has the effect of attacking jade. At this time, one article and one martial arts, echoed the voice, Hong Guoyu had already mentioned on the road, these two should be Fu Dingquan, the assistant of Jiezhongxi's right attendant of the military department and a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and Cao Dahao, the Hou of Dingnan.

According to Chen Kai's memory, he and Jie Chongxi raised troops against the Qing Dynasty and assisted Jie Chongxi in contacting the generals. And the latter, it doesn't look like Hong Guoyu, but like a Confucian general, in fact, he was originally a general of the Jingguo Gongfang Guoan who relied on Lu Jianguo at the beginning of the country, but his father Cao Shenfang was a learned man, Cao Dahao inherited his teachings at a young age, and he was not as vulgar and unliterate as ordinary martial artists.

It's just that for Cao Dahao, Chen Kai was most impressed by some records he had seen before leaving, among which Cao Dahao's full official title was "Qin ordered the restoration of the governor of Zhejiang, Zhijiang, Fujian, to control the civil and military affairs of the 36th battalion, to audit the merits of the generals, to contact the officials and soldiers and horses, to give the python Yushang Fang Sword and to manage the food and salary, and to act cheaply and the military department, and to hang the Pinghai General Yin General Commander, the Chinese Army Governor's Mansion, the Shao Bao and the Prince Taibao, and the Marquis of Dingnan". Originally, Chen Kai thought that his official title of "recruiting the general to join the army, managing the affairs of the Ordnance Bureau, Fujian according to the Inspectorate and Envoy Division, and Zhangquan Branch Patrol Road and Zhangzhou Prefecture Governor" was long enough, but now it seems that it is just a small thing, and it is not even half of the number of words.

Speaking of which, Chen Kai is also famous, after all, he is still gratifying, with this opponent, it is indeed louder than killing "little people" such as Wang Bangjun and Ma Degong. At this moment, these leaders and brains in Jiangxi are like this, which is also caused by their repeated defeats and defeats over the years, and even in recent years, they have formed a village in the eastern region of Jiangxi to defend themselves, thinking that it is a long-term solution, and it is also an inevitable choice after years of hard work and has never been able to open up the situation.

It is undeniable that their current situation is very difficult, and they have always been in turmoil in the face of the Qing army's suppression of the three provincial capitals. Chen Kai didn't expect Jie Chongxi and the others to be so careful, whether they trusted his ability, or whether their situation really didn't allow them to continue to greet, he didn't know much. But since it was already like this, Chen Kai didn't twist it, and directly promoted his plan.

"Don't hide from the officials, our army has a good momentum of development in southern Fujian and eastern Guangdong. Only this year, Xiamen completely annihilated the right road town mark of Fujian and the first section of Fujian Fubiao, and beheaded the general soldiers and horses to win the merit and Xingquan Dao Huang Shu; then broke through the Yongning Acropolis and Chongwu Qianhusuo City, and seized a large amount of grain and grass; By the time of the departure of Xiaguan in May, Yu Cizao defeated the Zhangzhou captive division, and this year it should be able to officially open up the situation in southern Fujian. ”

"Therefore, when the lower officials came, they sincerely invited the senior officials to lead troops into Fujian. After all, it is better to cut off one finger than to hurt ten fingers. Fujian is recovering, and the period of Jiangxi's recovery is getting closer. ”
