Chapter 14 The Change of Zhoushan II

After Huang Binqing sent Zheng Cai away, he also knew that Zheng Zhilong would not give up because of a mere lie, he thought about it for a while, and felt that he wanted to discuss it with Zhang Mingzhen, but he was afraid that Zhang Mingzhen was an elm pimple, which would not make sense.

"No matter what, the things on the island can't be bypassed, Zhang Mingzhen and Wang Zhiren." Huang Binqing made up his mind that no matter what attitude Zhang Mingzhen had, he would take a trip.

It's just that before he walked out of his yamen, he heard someone outside say loudly: "My lord, it's not good, it's not good." ”

"What's wrong?" Huang Binqing said: "I panicked. ”

"There are pirates coming, and pirates are coming from the south." The general said in a panic.

"What?" Huang Binqing said.

Before Huang Binqing's words fell, he heard a muffled sound from the sky, as if it was thunder, but Huang Binqing was also a person who had fought a war, and knew that naturally this was not thunder, but the sound of cannons.

"Pass the order down and defend it tightly." Huang Binqing's face was a little pale.

He has been working at the seaside, and he was born in Fujian, plus Zheng Cai has just come, so he naturally knows that this is definitely not a pirate, on the sea surface of Fujian and Zhejiang, except for Zheng Zhilong, a pirate dressed in the skin of the government, which one has such a big cannon.

Thinking of Zheng Zhilong's prestige on the sea, Huang Binqing suddenly felt that his strength was a little empty, but he never expected that Zheng Zhilong would be so disagreeable to the world and openly fight against the official army.

It's just that he didn't think about how he could restrain others when the government system could no longer restrain him.

"Come on, send someone to General Zhang's barracks for help." Huang Binqing said.

He doesn't count on Wang Zhiren, and the only thing he can count on now is Zhang Mingzhen.

Huang Binqing is a little flustered here, but on Zheng Sen's side at sea, it is overwhelming.

Under the attack of the Zheng family's fleet, the ships on guard outside in Zhoushan were either sunk or surrendered, but after a while, they occupied the sea area south of the Dinghai Zhongwei Station.

The coastline of the south side of Dinghai is an arc. And the lowest end of the arc, naturally is where the port is, the people of the Zheng family landed from both sides, rushed to the port, and shouted for a moment to kill, although Zhoushan Island is a big island, but the core of the rule, that is, the city of Dinghai Zhongwei, take here, the rest of the place will not have too much resistance.

Such a big movement naturally alarmed the people of the entire island.

Wang Zhiren and Zhang Mingzhen immediately integrated the army, thinking that it was really pirates who were attacking, but they were really ready to support

When we were in port, people came to visit.

Zhang Mingzhen asked, it was Lu Zhenfei's staff, Zhang Wenda.

Zhang Wenda told Zhang Mingzhen about the situation, Zhang Mingzhen frowned and said: "What does Lu Gong mean, the enemy is currently in the same room?" ”

"That's not what Lu Gong intended." Zhang Wenda said: "Lu Gong is just that he wants to transfer Fujian troops into Zhejiang and counterattack the whole of Zhejiang based on Zhoushan, but Zheng and Huang have their own selfish intentions, so they have today's situation. It's just that at this point, the lesser of two harms is the case. ”

Zhang Mingzhen didn't know what to do for a while.

In terms of relationship, Zhang Mingzhen and Huang Binqing are sons and daughters, but in the overall situation, Zheng Zhilong's entry into Zhejiang, the sailors to come, may play a big role in the battle of thieves in the future, not to mention whether the Zhoushan army under Huang Binqing can be compared with Zheng Zhilong's army.

It has been nearly a month since he arrived on Zhoushan Island, Zhang Mingzhen discussed with Huang Binqing several times about the thief, but he was prevaricated by Huang Binqing left and right, once or twice, after a long time, Zhang Mingzhen did not know Huang Binqing's selfishness, and he didn't want to fight the thief at all.

"My lord, Mr. Wang is here." The pro-soldier outside said.

"Please." Zhang Mingzhen said.

As soon as Wang Zhiren came in, he said, "General Zhang, now that the thieves are attacking, you are not moving here, what is going on?" ”

Zhang Mingzhen said: "Mr. Wang is a little calm. Then he made all the things in this matter clear.

Wang Zhiren frowned and said, "In this case, you should do it faster." ”

"Just who are you going to help?" Zhang Mingzhen said.

"Naturally, it's Zheng Zhilong." Wang Zhiren said: "Zheng Zongbing is under the order of the road superintendent, and even if you don't help Zheng Zongbing, do you think Zheng Zongbing will not be able to defeat this Zhoushan Island, they are all officers and soldiers, and naturally the less the loss, the better." ”

"Okay." Zhang Mingzhen gritted his teeth slightly and said.

The reason is very simple and clear, but when it comes to the matter, there are a few people who can do it neatly and feel that Zhang Mingzhen can't take care of his daughter at this moment.

Zhang Mingzhen and Wang Zhiren turned against each other, which naturally caused a chain reaction, Huang Binqing was not Zheng Zhilong's opponent, so he was not Zheng Zhilong's opponent, but after half a day's effort, Huang Binqing was defeated and lost, and most of the soldiers under Huang Binqing's command also surrendered.

But the chaos lasted a whole day before it was over.

After all, Zheng Zhilong's soldiers are all pirates, and many habits are naturally not very good. Naturally, he plundered the people of Zhoushan, if Zhang Mingzhen hadn't come quickly, I am afraid the situation would have worsened.

But even so, the Liangzi of the Zhejiang army and the Fujian army has already been concluded. now

It's just a low-level soldier.

"Two more generals to help." Zheng Zhilong strode over and greeted Wang Zhiren and Zhang Mingzhen.

Wang Zhiren and Zhang Mingzhen said in unison: "Meet Zheng Zongbing." ”

With Lu Zhenfei's appointment to Zheng Zhilong, all soldiers in Zhejiang must be controlled by Zheng Zhilong, and Wang Zhiren and Zhang Mingzhen are naturally Zheng Zhilong's subordinates.

But Zheng Zhilong didn't dare to snub the two, there were more than 10,000 soldiers in the hands of the two, and the three of them exchanged greetings, Zhang Mingzhen got to the point and said: "Now that the thieves occupy Jiangnan and oppress the gentry, I don't know when Zheng Zongbing is going to transfer troops to the west to save the people from fire and water?" ”

"Cao Thief's evil deeds, I heard about it in Fujian, and I was also indignant, so I specially asked the road supervisor for his life to come to Zhejiang." Zheng Zhilong said: "I came to Zhejiang, just to return the Zhejiang father and old man a Lang Lang Qiankun, if I can, I can't wait to start the army immediately, but I came from afar, the soldiers are tired, there is such a thing, I can only slow down." ”

"I don't know, how many days will it take?" Zhang Mingzhen said.

"Three days." Zheng Zhilong said: "Three days later, go straight to Qiantang and go down to Hangzhou City. ”

"Zhang is willing to be General Zheng's pawn and the vanguard general." Zhang Mingzhen bowed down again and said.

"Okay." Zheng Zhilong helped Zhang Mingzhen up and said, "When the time comes, it will be up to General Zhang's brave posture." ”

At this moment, Zhang Mingzhen was able to put his mind at ease, and said secretly: "Inspector Lu really didn't see the wrong person, and Zheng Zongbing can be regarded as a general who dares to fight." ”

As for Zheng Zhilong's selfishness, Zhang Mingzhen ignored it, who doesn't have some selfishness these days? As long as you dare to fight with thieves, don't avoid war, and don't secretly communicate with thieves, you are a good general.

Zheng Zhilong did not break his promise, after he got the benefit of Zhoushan from Lu Zhenfei, he naturally had to make a move, on the bright side, it was to attack Hangzhou, but in fact, it was to trade with the family, after all, it was very hard currency and could only be obtained from Jiangnan.

The war in Jiangnan was chaotic, and the prices of the entire Nanyang overseas were noisy. At this moment, if a batch of Jiangnan goods can be sent out, I am afraid that it will be several times or even dozens of times more profitable.

With such a promising battle, how could Zheng Zhilong not fight, of course, as for whether he could win it, Zheng Zhilong didn't care very much.

In this way, Zheng Zhilong took Zhoushan as the foundation, south to Wentai, north to the Yangtze River, the vast area, have become Zheng Zhilong's hunting ground, for a time, the south of the Yangtze River shook, not to mention Zheng Zhilong's first battle, first attack Hangzhou, but also shake Nanjing.

Zhang Xuan was even called to the palace overnight, but the soldiers left behind by Cao Ying, although they suffered a few small defeats because they were scattered, but on the whole, they did not lose the city. It's just that in the coastal zone, you can only guard the city and let the officials and soldiers come and go outside the city. Regardless of whether asked.

Zhang Xuan immediately knew that it was impossible for him to stay in Nanjing. I'm afraid I'm going to Ningbo soon.
