Changtai County is located in the northeast of the capital city of Zhangzhou, so it can threaten the Jiangdong Bridge, the only way for the Qing army to aid Zhangzhou in the direction of Quanzhou. Zheng Chenggong chose to take Changtai first, just to form a situation of closing the door and beating the dog. This is the importance of Wang Jin and Wang Zhigang's second marshals in Zhangzhou Prefecture, and it is also an imperative to recover Zhangzhou Prefecture this time.

The army traced the Jiulong River upstream, turned to Changtai River, Changtai County is at the intersection of the two, Zheng Chenggong's army approached, but this time the Changtai defenders did not abandon the city or open the city anyway. And Zheng Chenggong also intends to fight steadily, and is not in a hurry to complete the siege operation this time.

The battle situation in southern Fujian began to reverse after the victory in Xiaoyingling, and it was not until this moment that there were signs of slowing down. At this time, in the neighboring Chaozhou Mansion, Chen Kai, who had not returned to the Chaozhou Mansion for a long time, had just a few days before the first lunar month, and then he had a new move.

“…… Fengshun capital and its surrounding areas in Haiyang County are known as the border areas of Jieyang, Haiyang, Chengxiang and Dapu counties, surrounded by thousands of mountains, and the counties are beyond the reach of the whip, and the bandits are frequent, so that the people are not able to make a living. In recent years, there have been bandits such as Wu Liuqi and other bandits, making a chaotic side, and Cheng Township has fallen, and the Fengshun camp is too far away from the capital city, which is not conducive to defending. ”

Therefore, the Marquis of Weiyuan recruited the general to join the army, the general system of eastern Guangdong, the political envoy of Guangdong to participate in the politics, and the Chaohui branch guarded the road and the prefect of Chaozhou Chen, and decided to merge all the Fengshun capital of Haiyang County, the nine and ten maps of Lantian in Jieyang County, the border areas of four counties such as Jingxin, Huanqing, Jianqiao Sanbao and Qingyuan of Dapu County and Baimangshe of Qingyuan County as the county seat, and the former Fengzheng capital Pan Tiantong sentenced the capital of the county as the county government. Appointment ......"

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Chaozhou Road was changed to Chaozhou Mansion when the Yuan Dynasty was changed, and four counties of Haiyang, Chaoyang, Jieyang and Chengxiang were set up at the beginning. However, due to the large geographical area, there was a Ming Dynasty, and it was divided into 11 counties in Haiyang, Chaoyang, Jieyang, Chengxiang, Raoping, Huilai, Dapu, Chenghai, Puning, Pingyuan, and Zhenping during the Chongzhen period. Rao is like this, Fengshun at the junction of Haiyang, Jieyang, Chengxiang and Dapu counties is still beyond the reach of the county whips, and the people resist food and poor according to the risk, steal mines and rebel, and threaten the production and life of the people in the surrounding areas. Therefore, in the Jiajing period, there was already a Pantian Inspection Division, and then there was a general judgment and a garrison in Fengshundu.

Fengshun and its surrounding areas, the administration and defense are nominally under the counties, but in fact they have been directly subordinate to the prefecture. Chen Kai's revision of the administrative division was not only to make it more reasonable, but also to demonstrate his presence in the Chaozhou Mansion and to show his attitude to the people of Chaozhou.

"See? In addition to the county order and the county lieutenant, the county clerk, the master bookkeeper and the officials and officials of each room are all from our Chaozhou, especially the officials and officials, who are all local to Fengshun County. ”

"Yes, didn't Mr. Chen say that Fengshun has no land, so it will not increase the establishment of Guangzhou officials and officials."

"It's not just so simple, look at the county order and the county lieutenant, there is no Guangzhou guy, Mr. Chen has good intentions."

“……”

The dispute between the Turks and the Turks in Chaozhou was only temporarily appeased. The contradictions between the two sides still exist due to the land issue, and now it is not nice to say that it is nothing more than to give Chen Kai, a big man who paints cakes to satisfy hunger, a face. Chen Kai's move was to use the vacancy of a newly established county clerk and official to appease the local people's emotions, so that they would believe that Chen Kai was not the mastermind who helped the Cantonese to forcibly seize the land of Chaozhou from the locals from Chengxiang, and used the actual revolutionary actions to smash the counter-revolutionary rumors!

Similarly, in the northwestern part of Jieyang County, Chen Kai divided the area of thirteen townships into a county called Jiexi, and the county was located in Hepo Town, which he had advised Zheng Chenggong to think was facing the Huizhou Prefecture, and the officials he used were also copied from the example of Fengshun County.

When the decree was issued, the administrative teams of the two counties rushed to their respective county administrations. However, with the fall of Chengxiang for Hao Shangjiu, a large number of people took refuge in the south, and the pressure on the Chaozhou government was still huge, including the livelihood problems of ordinary people, and the "employment problems" of a large number of Confucian students.

"Chen Daotai recruited scholars to praise and paint military affairs in the scene?"

"Yes, it was issued along with the new decrees of the two counties, I don't believe you go to see it."

In the restaurant, a group of local gentry, wealthy families and scholars were eating and talking about the decrees issued in the first few months. By county, the list was all secretly operated earlier, Chen Kai was in charge, and the officials below also had a detailed reference, which was nothing more than a transfer and filling the vacancy. The "employment problem" that can be solved for these Confucian scholars is not pitiful, especially for those who read in Guangzhou, and it is even more useless.

However, the scope of recruitment in this decree is not limited to Chaozhou locals, but also people from Guangzhou, Huizhou, Fujian, and even anyone with lofty ideals who want to work in Chen Kai's curtain and draw military affairs for Wang Shizan. The only requirement is to read and write, and it is best to know some arithmetic, or have some understanding of the geographical situation, and even have priority to enter the curtain.

"After all, Chen Daotai has also read the books of sages, and he must have a grudge against those vulgar warriors in his heart. In this scene, it seems to solve the problem that some scholars have no chance to become officials, and it is estimated that there will be greater development in the future. ”

A middle-aged Confucian who looked relatively wealthy waved his hand, quite a bit of a feeling of scolding Fang Xuan, as if he was a few years younger. Chen Kai, who is a child, although he is just a child, but in this Chaozhou, in Guangzhou, in the territory of southern Fujian, who dares to underestimate him?

Even many old scholars who are quite famous in the local Confucian forest have also said that they are using Chen Kai's ingenuity and wisdom to devote their minds to Baguwen, and at least they are among the top three. Of course, for these old gentlemen who are accustomed to seeing the imperial examination, they all said to their disciples bitterly that "not doing business" like Chen Kai would not have been able to get out at all if they hadn't caught up with such a troubled era. Therefore, as a reader, the top priority is to read the books of sages and sages, and learning to write the Bagu text well is the most important thing.

Chen Kai hadn't heard such a voice, he just laughed it off. Relying on the fact that Chaozhou is not far from the Zhongzuo Institute, Chen Kai's request to Zheng Chenggong for the transfer of the school affiliated to the Ordnance Bureau has also been approved by Zheng Chenggong, and it has been renamed Guangdong Quality Testing School.

Building a school is a good thing after all. What's more, most of these students have been studying for more than two years, and Chen Kai has been throwing money into them, and now it's time for them to come out and do something.
