There is an obvious problem with this edict, that is, Liu Yongxi has long been no longer the chief soldier of Jingkou Town, and the imperial court appointed him as the chief soldier of Linhuai Town last year, but it has been several months since he led the troops to leave the Linhuai Pass station, and since the imperial court did not give Liu Yongxi a new title, everyone just called him the chief soldier of Linhuai Town according to custom.

However, in this edict, Empress Zhang still called Liu Yongxi the chief soldier of Jingkou Town, although this is a very obvious mistake, but everyone has seen the determination of Empress Zhang and the Hongguang small court to fight against the court, so they will not recognize the post of Linhuai Town general soldier given to Liu Yongxi by the Hongguang small court, but still call Liu Yongxi the chief soldier of Jingkou Town.

But everyone is more concerned about the title of this Yue Guogong, no matter which aspect Empress Zhang does not have the right to canonize Liu Yongxi as the Duke of Yueguo, but everyone thinks that it is completely reasonable for Empress Zhang to do this, after all, she has already canonized two emperors, and now what does it matter if she is just crowned with the manual.

It's just that there has been a Yue Guogong in this dynasty, that is, Hu Dahai who died in Jinhua Bayonglou at the beginning of the country, but Hu Dahai, the Yue Guogong, was only posthumously given after the founding of the country, and because Hu Dahai's eldest son was killed by Zhu Yuanzhang, it was not passed on, so everyone was wondering what was going on.

Everyone does not think that there was a Yue Guogong at the beginning of the country, so Empress Zhang could not canonize Liu Yongxi as the Yue Guogong.

The Chengguo Gong of this dynasty has passed on the ninth full twelve, and the last Chengguo Duke Zhu Chunchen died at the hands of thieves in Beijing, but the Hongguang Imperial Court still canonized Liu Kongzhao as the Chengguo Gong, although the "Chengguo Gong" and "Chengguo Gong" have different sounds, but this is very similar to the situation of the Yue Guogong.

What everyone cares about is what is the implicit meaning of the title of Duke of Yueguo, after all, the abbreviation of Zhejiang is "Yue", which is equivalent to giving the whole province of Zhejiang to Liu Yongxi, and Empress Zhang's holy drive happens to be in Zhejiang, and the weight of this duke is much heavier than that of ordinary dukes.

Moreover, Hu Dahai captured Wuzhou, Zhuji, Chuzhou, Yanzhou and other places during the time of Taizu, which is almost the same as the three mansions of Jinqu according to Empress Zhang's camp today, and more importantly, Hu Dahai was killed by the rebel generals in Jinhua Bayonglou, and now Empress Zhang happened to move to Jinhua, and everyone suddenly understood.

Considering that Liu Yongxi escorted Empress Zhang to the south safely for thousands of miles all the way, and Empress Zhang's move to Yanziji and Jinhua were Liu Yongxi's first contributions, the more everyone thought about it, the more they understood that Empress Zhang was leaning on the Duke of Yue as the Great Wall.

As the saying goes, "the world is safe, pay attention to the phase, the world is dangerous, pay attention to the general", usually Empress Zhang often talks to Zhu Dadian, Zhang Guowei, and Tong Yili and is often humble: "I'm just a woman, you can discuss these things with Xiao Chengyibo and settle them!"

Although Liu Yongxi is not in Jinhua, Queen Zhang will mention the name Liu Yongxi every time, and many people think that Queen Zhang is holding the army under Liu Yongxi to self-respect, but now it seems that it is completely different things, she really attaches importance to this just-baked Yue Guogong.

And Liu Yongxi, the Duke of Yueguo, is indeed the Great Wall of Empress Zhang's camp, and his strength has almost doubled after he merged with Mrs. Xing at the beginning of the year, and the generals under his command are said to have 20,000 people.

This time, the Manchu Qing army of more than 100,000 troops went south to Huaiyang, all the way straight in, and only Liu Yongxi, the Duke of Yueguo, won a few battles, but because Li Benshen, Yang Chengzu, and Liu Liangzuo were captured one after another, Liu Yongxi and Xing Fu were forced to cross the river, but the strength of the army under his command did not suffer much loss, and it is said that they were ready to enter Zhejiang in a big way.

Considering that Liu Yongxi was born in the sincerity of Bofu and is loyal and good for generations, and he is not only the first hero of Empress Zhang's southern crossing, but also the first merit of escorting several times, plus he is now the son of Chengguo Gong, and he can become a hereditary Chengguo Duke without Empress Zhang's edict, and now Empress Zhang canonized Liu Yongxi as the Duke of Yue Guo only a few years in advance.

And now Empress Zhang's camp has three prefectures and twenty-three counties in central Zhejiang and can also have the opportunity to control more territory, the only flaw is that the troops in hand are too small, the total strength is only a few thousand, and the real usable field army is even more pitiful, so it has to reorganize a battalion of the queen's army.

And after the army led by Liu Yongxi entered Zhejiang, the situation completely changed, and there was no need to look at the faces of the people of Hangzhou, so Empress Zhang's camp quickly figured out and made a sound of praise, and even Shi Chaoding, the prime minister, specially came out to blow the wind: "Niangniang means that the Yue Guogong has made great contributions to the country and should be rewarded, but he is too young, so he must press it first!"

When Shi Chaoding said this, everyone already understood, and Empress Zhang's meaning was too obvious.

Liu Yongxi is now the Duke of Yue Guo, almost unsealable, how can we talk about "too young to press first", after all, the Duke of this dynasty is already the upper limit, although there are several kings with different surnames, but they are all posthumously sealed, Queen Zhang's love for the Duke of Yue can be seen.

But only in this way can the tens of thousands of troops of Liu Yongxi, the Duke of Yue, be truly used by the imperial court, so Zhu Dadian, Zhang Guowei, and Tong Yili have played in favor of them, and feel that supporting King Lu in Hangzhou is the next policy, and Liu Yongxi, the Duke of Yueguo, can support whoever Empress Zhang wants to support in Jinhua, and there is no need to look at outsiders.

After all, in the eyes of Donglin and Liu Zongzhou, King Lu is a strange commodity to live in, but with Liu Yongxi's full support, Jinhua feels that King Lu's reputation is almost useless.

But Hangzhou doesn't see it that way, they have repeatedly stated that King Lu is the best candidate, and they still want to incorporate Zhezhong, but when Hangzhou is feeling good, the latest news came.

On 9 May, the Qing army crossed the river in Guazhou with the generals Zhang Tianlu and Yang Chengzu as the forerunner, and easily defeated the Jiang waterproof division Zheng Hongkui's division at Jinshan on the opposite bank.

As soon as he heard that the Qing army had captured Zhenjiang, Emperor Hongguang did not hesitate to flee in a hurry with Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng in the early morning of 10 May.

After all, the Qing army's forward horse team only arrived at the city of Nanjing on the 14th, the main force of the Qing army officially arrived on the 15th, and Duoduo officially entered the city on the 17th.

However, Emperor Hongguang was naturally disheartened as soon as he ran, and the garrison ministers Zhao Zhilong, Zhu Guobi, and Xu Jiujue, Duke of Wei, Zhang Gongri, Marquis of Longping, Wang Duo, Cai Yichen, Qian Qianyi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Li Zhan, the imperial history of Zuodu, opened the city gate and welcomed the Duoduo army into the city.

At this time, it was exactly one year since Emperor Hongguang officially ascended to the pole.
