After half a year of campaigning, Guangdong and Fujian provinces were basically recovered, and the fighting tended to subside. In the last year, in addition to these two places, the Zheng group still operated the battlefield of Nanzhili, where the Ming army under Zhang Mingzhen, the Marquis of Dingxi, and Zhang Huangyan, the squire of the military department, entered the Yangtze River in the first month and March of the eighth year of Yongli, broke through the river defenses, attacked the Qing army along the river, and at the same time responded to the main force of the Ming army in the southwest that might arrive as promised.

Two times later, Rao was in Chongming Tuntian, and the grain and grass in the army were also insufficient. For this reason, Zhang Mingzhen first went to Wenzhou to buy grain, and then went south to the Zhongzuo Institute to meet with Zheng Chenggong and ask for help. In order to support Zhang Mingzhen and Zhang Huangyan's operations in Nanzhili, Zheng Chenggong sent Zhongjingbo Chen Hui to lead 5,000 naval divisions and 10,000 land divisions to the north, and continued to expand the results of the battle with the help of the combat power of this new force.

On the sixth day of the ninth lunar month, the army approached the county seat of Shanghai, and the people in the city "had those who insisted on blocking the government, some wore scarves, some slandered and confused the public, and some were afraid of drinking the government." If it weren't for Zhou Guozuo, the governor of Jiangning, who quickly led troops to help and threatened to slaughter the city, it was very likely that the county would change hands.

failed to take the county seat of Shanghai, but the Ming army did not return. The fleet went north to Chongming, and on 26 September held a ceremony to worship the Yangtze River, preparing to enter the Yangtze River.

However, with the opening of the fleet, Chen Hui's side was raised by Chen Hui's flagship. This is the identity symbol of the coach, and Chen Hui's move is to pretend to be the coach. For this reason, Zhang Mingzhen asked Chen Hui to surrender Daxu, but Chen Hui insisted on refusing, and the two did not speculate, so the fleet was split in Haotou, and Chen Hui led his troops south.

In this case, Chen Hui did not return directly to Fujian, but wandered in the waters of Zhejiang, staying in the coasts of Wenzhou, Taizhou, and Ningbo. And Zhang Mingzhen, on the eve of the Battle of Jiangmen, suddenly led the fleet from Chongming and entered the Yangtze River. This time it is one step deeper than the previous two times, and the fleet arrived at Yanziji outside Nanjing on the 18th day of the lunar month, and the magnificent Nanjing City and the towering Zhongshan Mountain are close at hand!

"Hengjiang Lou flies from the hero, and the frost and clouds are full of national prestige.

The firewheels on the shore are stacked in arrays, and the middle-stream iron locks are heavily encircled.

After the war, the sunset shark cave, spring to the long wind swallow rock.

Pointing out the rise and fall of the dough with emotion, this place was Wangji back then. ”

In the slightly dim study of Hongdou Villa, Changshu County, Suzhou Prefecture, Qian Qianyi recited this poem, and immediately nodded and praised: "Zhang Cangshui's poems always have a majestic spirit in them, and ordinary Confucian scholars are incomparable." ”

"Mu Weng is reasonable, but also Cangshui has been in the army for a long time, in the past in Siming Mountain, and then entered the defense of Zhoushan, and then faced the captive division, and went south to the Fujian Sea, to this day, it has been many years."

The opposite seat is Huang Zongxi, a scholar from eastern Zhejiang. This person is the son of Huang Zunsu, one of the seven gentlemen of Donglin. His father is in Donglin, and has always been known as the two major think tanks with Wang Wenyan, and the eunuch Xiu Donglin will be recorded, and his person is Huang Zunsu, the imperial history of Shandong Province, the pioneer of the sky star. Such a person, when the eunuch party won a big victory in the party struggle, and Donglin Qunxian was thrown into prison in batches, and his people were killed in prison. When Chongzhen ascended the throne, the Donglin Party counterattacked, Huang Zongxi stabbed Xu Xianchun in the court, beat Cui Yingyuan, and pulled out his beard to sacrifice his father's spirit, thus becoming the reputation of "Yuyao Huang Xiaozi".

Since the Southern Ming Dynasty, Huang Zongxi first had trouble with Ma Shiying and Ruan Dayue in the Fushe. After the fall of the Hongguang Dynasty, he participated in the establishment and maintenance of the Lujian Dynasty together with the Zhedong scholars. Then the Jiang master was defeated, Huang Zongxi led the Shizhong battalion that sold his property and raised it by himself to defeat Zhapu and retreated to Siming Mountain Xizhu Temple, where his troops were burned to death by the mountain people because of harassing the people, and he was able to get out of this difficulty because of the fact that he was out of business.

Since then, Huang Zongxi has participated in the matter of going to Japan to beg for teachers, but most of the time he is still in a latent state, secretly collecting intelligence for the Ming army, contacting the gentry, and thus having contact with Qian Qianyi. Qian Qianyi organized the anti-Qing Dynasty, and many things in eastern Zhejiang had Huang Zongxi's participation, and the two intersected with each other, and even waited until Qian Qianyi died, and asked Huang Zongxi to make a tomb for him before he died, but it was still because Qian Qianyi's son asked someone else to write on his behalf, so he failed to make the trip, but Huang Zongxi still made a poem to mourn Qian Qianyi in the second year, in which the sentence "Who will pass on after the end of the heart period" refers to the old things that they plotted to resist the Qing Dynasty in those years, but it was inconvenient to hype.

"The fleet arrived near Nanjing, and burned the Jiangxi grain ship in Zhujiazui, Shangyuan County, which is the closest Wang Shi has come to Nanjing in many years."

"It's a pity that the king from the southwest still couldn't come."

The fleet of Zhang Mingzhen and Zhang Huangyan approached Nanjing, which greatly shook the Jiangnan officialdom of the Qing court. For this reason, Ma Guozhu, the governor of Jiangnan and Jiangxi, and the commander of the Jiangnan Han army, Guan Loyal to the commander of the army, expelled the Ming army. By the beginning of the first month of the ninth year of Yongli, the Ming army had retreated to Chongming.

Speaking of which, Qian Qianyi was the mastermind behind the three battles of the Yangtze River, relying on his master-apprentice relationship with Zheng Chenggong to persuade him, and then organized an army for Yao Zhizhuo to help in the war. On Huang Zongxi's side, Yu actively contacted Zhang Mingzhen's fleet in eastern Zhejiang, and Zhang Mingzhen also sent people to land from the rooftop and contact Huang Zongxi, so as to create a greater momentum in eastern Zhejiang.

Originally, Huang Zongxi was hiding in the mountains this time, and for this reason, he also wrote a poem with "only turning the bitter word and turning the cold food flowers in the deserted village" to express his mood when he avoided the deep mountains and deserted villages. However, this time is different from the past, and when the great changes in Fujian and Guangdong provinces came, he had to take the risk to come to Qian Qianyi once, in order to discuss the next step when the situation has changed so much.

The matter of returning to the teacher has come to an end, and the two of them are just sighing. The current situation has changed greatly, and Fujian is in turmoil, and Qian Qianyi got the news very early. Shocked, don't wait to mention it, how do you know, this momentum has not passed, and the news of Guangdong's victory has also come, whether it is those well-informed people or the government of the Qing court, they are all saying in unison, saying that Li Dingguo and Chen Kai returned to the division in Guangdong, and annihilated Shang Geng's Second Domain and Zhu Mala's Eight Banner Army in the First World War!

"Mu Weng, that Chen Kai Chen is really amazing."

Huang Zongxi has been hiding in Tibet recently, and the details of the news are far less than those of Qian Qianyi, the leader of the Southeast Wenzong. said that they exchanged information about each other, but in fact, this time, it was more Qian Qianyi who told Huang Zongxi what he had learned, which directly caused Huang Zongxi to be amazed several times.

Lizhou's words are also the old man's feelings when he heard about these things, by pretending and destroying Fujian's economy and the rule of the Tartars, Damu can directly kick the entire Fujian with one kick. The matter here is not over, he took tens of thousands of people to Guangdong, and cooperated with the king of Xining to achieve such a big victory. The two most prestigious generals of the dynasty today can cooperate with them seamlessly, and such a civil servant is not only breathtaking. ”

sighed, but Qian Qianyi was not a little tired, but some were more ruddy on his face, ruddy because of excitement.

"In the past few years, the dynasty has finally recovered some strength, and it is no longer the same situation as when the Tartars were pressed to the ground and beaten when they first entered the customs. The king of Xining, the old man has never seen it in person, but Damu has grown up with the old man's own eyes, and now there is even that Chen Jingcheng, although he has no fame, but he has a rare talent. The dynasty, ZTE is hopeful! ”

At this point, it is already old tears. After years of enduring humiliation, he finally saw hope, but he couldn't help but feel a little out of shape for Qian Qianyi.

"Do students remember that Mu Weng had seen that Chen Jingcheng?"

"Exactly, in the fifth year of Yongli, he came from Fujian to discuss the matter of the three bureaus with the old man."

Recalling that old incident, Qian Qianyi seemed to see some clues from it. At that time, Chen Kai's attitude towards the three bureaus of the Catalpa was generally positive, but he repeatedly emphasized the need to strengthen the southeast Ming army, to be precise, the strength of the Zheng group. Qian Qianyi did exactly that at that time - to contact the source of goods and dumping channels, and sell the collection and property to praise the military supplies. In his opinion, Chen Kai is selfish, and this selfishness coincides with him, so there is a basis for cooperation. But looking back now, it seems that Chen Kai had predicted the unhappiness of the three bureaus of Catalpa, as well as the efforts of Zheng Chenggong and Li Dingguo in Fujian and Guangdong provinces, which is really puzzling.

"Maybe I'm thinking too much, Zi is silent, strange and confused, how can there be people with unpredictable prophets in this world."

If I think so, it's just a matter of a moment. Without the slightest expression on his face, Qian Qianyi just continued to talk about Huang Zongxi's interest: "After talking with Chen Jingcheng for a few days, this son's opinion is quite worth pondering. The old man was also amazed at that time, and he was amazed that a child could have such talents. When this son set off to return to Fujian, the old man also said to Hedong Jun: Chen Kai's son is definitely not a thing in the pool, and sooner or later it will turn over the clouds and rain. Now it seems that it is not a monstrous wave! ”

"The shepherd's eyes are like torches, and the students admire them."

Today's situation, although the Qing court still controls most of China's provinces, especially the most elite Jiangsu and Zhejiang, is still firmly in the hands of the Qing army, but the two provinces were recovered in an instant, and the Qing court not only lost the territory of the two provinces, but also lost a lot of vitality. The battle situation is no longer the past when the Ming army generally defended and occasionally counterattacked, and the Qing army took the initiative, and there may be some stalemate, but the situation will improve and the national anti-Qing movement will be greatly encouraged.

During the conversation, the two of them mentioned some of the excitement of the scholars of the Ming court who knew them. The more we talked like this, the more I felt that the situation was very good, and it was only a matter of time before we regained more lost ground. Excited, it is even inevitable to let Liu Ru, who is the wind in the courtyard, bring some wine and food, drink a drink, and write a few poems, so as to vent the pride in his chest.

The wine and food came up soon, and the two drank together, which was also a pleasure. But after thinking about it for a few cups, Huang Zongxi couldn't help but mention some things, which caused Qian Qianyi to think deeply.

"Mu Weng, the year before last, the King of Xining moved to Guangxi and Huguang, and he has always cooperated with His Royal Highness the King of Qin. In the past two years, it seems that they have never been in contact with each other, and they have wholeheartedly joined forces with the national surname, and even if the attack on Zhaoqing failed last year, they did not change their course because of this, and they still want to attack Guangdong, at most it is just a different path......"

Huang Zongxi's implication, Qian Qianyi of course understood, when Yao Zhizhuo came back, he had mentioned to him the contrast between the luxury of the Guiyang Prince's Mansion and the dilapidated An Longxing. Sun Kewang seems to have a heart of disobedience, and Guo Zhiqi, Lian Chengbi and others didn't seem to be very reasonable with Li Dingguo at first, but last year, they did their best to help from the side, and their attitude changed so much.

Sun and Li were not in harmony, so Li and Zheng joined forces. In the DPRK and the military, there were checks and balances between the Qin clan and the royalist Li Dingguo faction and the Zheng clique. If he was in the middle of the court, Qian Qianyi might still feel that there was room for his hands to do it, but in Jiangnan, for the Ming court, which lived in the southwest, he could only feel the worry that internal strife might be imminent, and nothing else.

team, how to stand, this is actually not to be considered at all. The problem is that if the current good situation is delayed by infighting, Qian Qianyi always feels that this will have a great impact on his whitewashing. However, the three bureaus of the catalpa are the painstaking efforts of the second half of his life, and the current situation, the strategy may still have a chance to come true, but the problem lies in the contradictions between the two sides and the situation on the side of the Yongli court, but he can't help but think about it.

"Perhaps, you can't pin all your hopes on that His Royal Highness King Qin anymore."

After thinking about it, Qian Qianyi has never been a fool, and if he says so, it is obvious that he has changed greatly. But if you want him to directly say the words of abolishing the three rounds of the catalpa, it is not realistic, at least for now, without Sun Butcher, and Li Butcher, Li Dingguo's army went north to Jiangxi, and then went down the river to join Zheng Chenggong, at first glance, it seems that the odds of winning are even greater than the previous plan.

"Lizhou, maybe this time, you still need to make my brother go to Jinhua for a while."

Recently, there is no reason to go to Jinhua. However, in the Battle of Zhoushan that year, Qian Qianyi asked Huang Zongxi's younger brother Huang Zongyan to go to Jinhua on his behalf to persuade Jinhua's general soldiers and horses to enter the treasure anyway. As a result, it was naturally Ma Jinbao who was perfunctory, and after the fall of Zhoushan, he ran to Wenzhou Sanpan and stepped on Lu Jianguo Chao.

Ma Jinbao was originally born in a rogue, and he did not have the slightest loyalty to the Ming Court. However, Qian Qianyi was very optimistic about his people, Huang Zongxi didn't understand it very well, but he also responded to his words. It's just that at this time, what Qian Qianyi was thinking about was more people who seemed to be persuadable, such as Cai Shiying, the governor of Jiangxi, Tian Xiong, the governor of Zhejiang, Zhang Jie, the chief soldier of Dinghai, and so on.

"By the way, this matter must be discussed with Damu. In addition, coordinating the work of the two armies of King Xining and Damu, Chen Kai should also be competent. ”
