In the humble lobby, Jie Chongxi asked and looked around at the generals, but they were all silent. It's not that they don't want to answer, it's just that Chen Kai's plea in the letter is too clueless, so they can't understand what this is for.

"Commander, did the people he sent mention why?"

As the most powerful assistant, Fu Dingquan had to break the silence here. However, this question is also difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and the person sent by Chen Kai only knows his own task, and does not know what the actual meaning of the letter is.

For the sake of secrecy, this is reasonable, but it seems a little strange that Chen Kai is so convinced that they will act according to his arrangement.

“…… Please send 20 non-pedantic, flexible and convicted scholars to Chaozhou for training. The content of the training is related to the life and death of these scholars and the overall situation, so I cannot tell you below. There is only one thing, please believe that everything we have done today is for the future recovery of Jiangxi......"

Turning over the letter again, Jie Chongxi was still frowning, sitting in front of the desk, the thumb and index finger of his right hand carefully rubbing the tail end of the long beard under the chin, as if he could rub out some inspiration. This letter was delivered yesterday, and after reading it, Jie Chongxi was completely puzzled. This appearance has appeared many times, and even last night, after tossing and turning, and getting up and looking at it several times, it was the same painstakingly thinking, but it was difficult to find a solution.

"Could it be that Chen Kai wants to send these scholars back to their hometown to be secret agents?"

After a long time, Zhang Zisheng's answer was also in line with everyone's thoughts. However, from their experience, in today's Jiangxi, they can easily obtain the resources and information they need from the local gentry by virtue of their status as the Ming army and the connections of these scholars who follow. And these scholars, who have always followed the side, are even more incompatible with the Tartars, not to mention whether it is acceptable to shave their hair and be easy to wear, but only to let them go back to their hometowns to be a small spy, and it is far better to stay and assist the people in charge of internal materials and military affairs.

The doubt was back to square one, and it was because based on what they knew about the city, it was not a being that would be stupid enough to destroy the sky. Every step he takes often seems meaningless, even ridiculously stupid, but it always has a special meaning, and these deep meanings will play a key role in the following days.

Chen Kai said that this is for the recovery of Jiangxi, so nine times out of ten it is true. However, how to recover and who will recover is still a question worth pondering, and this question often affects the final decision.

"There is no need to guess, Chen Kaiqi, although there are many contrary to common sense, but in terms of these years, he is still following the right path, which is nothing more than a different method from others...... As for this matter, not to mention whether his plan can succeed, only to say that eggs can't be put in one basket, we also need to leave another glimmer of hope for the elders in Jiangxi! ”

Compared with the hard thinking and careful weighing of everyone here, Jie Chongxi, who has been scratching his head for a day, has gone through the process of thinking before and after, and after never getting a practical answer, he has become much more open-minded.

In the Jiangxi Anti-Qing Movement, the Qing army entered Jiangxi, which was destroyed by Jin Shenghuan; Yu Jin Shenghuan led the national anti-Qing movement for a time, but it stopped after the Qing army entered Jiangxi. After that, the four major commanders of Jiangxi and the four battalions of Yan Luo, which were contemptuously called by the Qing court, still fought bloody battles with the Qing army, but their sense of existence was so low that it was really the only one seen in the south. However, the tragedy of Jiangxi's anti-Qing movement did not allow him to save at all, and these local bandits in the mouth of the Qing court, whether they were from Jiangxi or not, were still able to unite under the leadership core headed by Governor Jie Chongxi, and fought desperately against the Qing army.

Jiezhongxi's mind has been decided, whether it is Fu Dingquan, or Cao Dahao, Hong Guoyu and Zhang Zisheng, everyone is full of anger. After half a month, the selected suitable candidates secretly gathered in the Jianghu Mountain camp, which made the person who was responsible for taking them to Chaozhou feel a little headache.

"The boss of the army, Mr. Chen said that there are twenty people......

Twenty people, including family members, is already quite a lot. They need to secretly cross the area controlled by the Qing army, and the number of people cannot be too many, but this time Jie Chongxi seems to be a little too enthusiastic, and a total of fifty Confucian scholars were selected, including their families, the scale of two or three hundred people, try to ask how to cross the area controlled by the Qing army.

"Unless, shave your hair and change into a tartar attire......"

The messenger had followed Chen Kai to the southeast before, and had such an experience once, and in order to achieve his goal, he would not have much nostalgia for the short-term compromise. But for these scholars who always adhere to the civilized dress, it is absolutely unacceptable.

Then it was time to persuade Jiezhongxi, and the reason for the persuasion was nothing more than Chen Kai's outstanding ability, and he could do more things for the court and the Han family when he arrived in Chaozhou. However, the three armies can win the commandery, but the puppet cannot win the ambition, and even the identity of the governor cannot make these Confucian scholars submit. It wasn't until the end that Jie Chongxi and Fu Dingquan talked about it for a few days, and only 20 or so scholars reluctantly accepted it, but at this time, the messenger said that there were not many people and there was no need to shave their hair and change clothes.

"This is clearly playing tricks on me!"

"Didn't there originally only be twenty people, but now that the number of people is about the same, it naturally doesn't matter."

“……”

Jie Chongxi was also helpless, and after appeasing him again, these Confucian scholars reluctantly followed the messenger sent by Chen Kai on the road with their families.

They went all the way through the mountains and forests, detoured to Quzhou Mansion in Zhejiang, and then entered the sea through Chuzhou Prefecture and Wenzhou Mansion. This is an important passage of Fujian-Sea trade, and the famous Longyou Merchant Gang and Songyang Dan mainly take this road to transfer Fujian's production to Jiangxi, Zhejiang and even Nanzhili.

It will take time to make this journey. But when Chen Kai returned to the capital city of Chaozhou, the first invitee had already lived in the post house. The only difference is that there is only such a person, and he is also on the waterway of the Min River.

"Tao Juren, don't come unharmed."

Tao Qian, a Longwu Juren who lived in Shaowu Mansion, saw Chen Kai, Rao had already learned that the guy who made a cameo appearance as a bandit on the mountain road was Chen Kai, who was famous in the land of Fujian and Guangdong, and a little strange color inevitably appeared on his face when he said goodbye.

"I have heard the name of Chen Daotai for a long time, and it is like thunder. The student really didn't expect that the merchant who was chasing the head of the fourth camp of Yan Luo would be Chen Daotai. ”

Tao Qian bowed, and was immediately helped up by Chen Kai. The subordinates guarding the yamen served tea, and then Chen Kai waved his hand, and the subordinates standing on the side withdrew from the second hall, and then the door closed, and only the two of them were left in this closed space.

"I won't say anything about the greetings, this time I invited Tao Juren to come over, but I need Tao Juren's help because I need something."

"It is an honor for students to be able to do things for Master Wang, Chen Daotai, but please speak up."

"I want you to shave your hair and change clothes, go back to your hometown in Jiangxi to give food to the Tartars, go to participate in the Tartar imperial examination, and assist the local officials in the administration. In other words, I want you to live like a traitorous literati in the next few years! ”
