Chapter 127: Zheng Jing's Madness III
After Zheng Jing integrated Taiwan's military and government. The first thing to do is to go home. Without saying a word, he led people to rush into Zhang Ping's yard.
It's just that at this time, Zhang Ping's yard is already in full swing.
Back then, Luo Yujiao had female soldiers led by Tian Damiang by her side, and she chose Shaanxi healthy women as pawns, which was also quite combative. What's more, they are loyal to the royal family.
So in the face of the people brought by Zheng Jing, they still fought to the end.
When Zheng Jing emptied the yard and stepped on blood, he still didn't find Zhang Ping. He immediately found a few people and asked, "Where is Zhang Ping?" ”
"Phew. You will never find Her Royal Highness the Princess. The maid squirted a mouthful of bloody spit at Zheng Jing.
Naturally, this spit could not have fallen on Zheng Jing, but Zheng Jing was suddenly furious and drew his sword to kill this maid.
Half of Zheng Jing's anger came from the disrespect of this maid, and the other half was because the imperial court reacted so quickly that Zhang Ping fled. It is simply impossible to block messages.
He's going to have to pick things up.
Therefore, Zheng Jing integrated the fleet and attacked Penghu first.
Penghu is not prepared, and even Penghu is garrisoned, although it is in the Xia army system, it is also the old department of the Zheng family. There was little resistance at all, and he surrendered.
Zheng Jing immediately made a quick decision and prepared to attack Quanzhou City.
Quanzhou has always been the base camp of the Zheng family, and the Zheng family has many relationships in Quanzhou City. Zheng Jing believed that as long as he brought the banner of the Zheng family to Quanzhou City, Quanzhou City would naturally be conquered, as if it were Penghu.
It's just that he miscalculated.
When he came to the city of Quanzhou, he had made an appointment with the people in the city of Quanzhou, and when it came to the appointed time, he came to the city of Quanzhou, but the big artillery at the head of the city of Quanzhou was hit in the Jinjiang River and hit many Zheng family ships. Zheng Jing looked at the head of Quanzhou City, swaggering with big banners.
The Zheng family said: "Zhang Jiazhen. ”
It was Zhang Jiazhen who guarded Fujian.
Zhang Jiazhen originally followed Zhang Jiayu to guard Fujian. It's just that letting Zhang Jiazhen follow Zhang Jiayu at that time can be regarded as a special method in a special period.
Now the form has changed greatly, and Zhang Jiazhen can not always be under Zhang Jiayu's command, so when Zhang Jiayu was transferred to Lianghuai, Zhang Jiazhen guarded Fujian in the name of the Fujian General Army.
When Zhang Jiazhen got the news of Zheng Jing's rebellion, he immediately judged that the most dangerous place was not another place, but Quanzhou, because Quanzhou was the nest of the Zheng family.
He handed over the defense of Fuzhou City to Yang Mingjing, the governor of Fujian, that is, Zhang Xuan's person who was selected in the Guangzhou Township Examination. Although he was a little shameless, he knew better what he relied on to get to a high position.
Therefore, the iron barrel that blocked Fuzhou City, another letter was sent to the imperial court, asking the imperial court to rescue.
So Zhang Jiazhen entered the city with more than 100 personal soldiers, and as soon as he entered the city, he seized the command of the Quanzhou government soldiers.
Even if most people think that Zheng Chenggong rebelled, many people still understand the general trend of the world, even if Zheng Chenggong rebels, he may be able to seize the sea.
But defeating the imperial court on land is something that you don't even think about.
They don't want to flee abroad. Naturally, they knew what to do, and Zhang Jiazhen thundered at home, and they surrendered to the imperial court.
That's what it is today.
Zheng Jing saw that Quanzhou City could not be attacked for a while, so he retreated to Xiamen.
Xiamen was originally also the residence of a naval division of the imperial court. It's just that most of the imperial court sailors are in the South Seas, and although there are some ships left here, it is impossible to compare with Zheng Jing in any case.
Zheng Jing rested in Xiamen on the one hand, and sent troops to defeat all the surrounding counties. Of course, this is also what Zhang Jiazhen gave them.
Because Zhang Jiazhen understands one thing.
That is, the Zheng family has too much influence on this piece of land. Zhang Jiazhen is confident that he is sitting in Quanzhou, and naturally no one dares to betray the imperial court. But elsewhere, it's hard to say.
He would rather let these places out, as long as Quanzhou is guarded, Zheng Jing will not be able to distract him before he captures Quanzhou. In this way, he limited Zheng Jing to this area, and when the imperial army moved, Zheng Jing would not be able to escape.
It's just that the only thing he worries about is Zheng Chenggong.
What kind of move will Zheng Chenggong make?
This matter is not only worried by Zhang Jiazhen, but also by Zhang Xuan.
When Zhang Xuan learned the news of Zheng Jing's rebellion, he was incredible. I really can't think of who gave him the guts. Could it be that he Zhang Xuan didn't kill enough people, and really regarded his tolerance as weakness.
I really thought that things at sea would not be able to be done without your Zheng family.
Although now Zhang Xuan also understands the cause and effect, and knows that this incident is Zheng Jing's first disaster, but Zheng Chenggong and Zheng Jing are father and son, what Zheng Chenggong will do, Zhang Xuan can't think clearly for a while. But he couldn't help but think of the worst.
He immediately ordered: "Order Shi Lang's troops to immediately go south and enter Chongming Island." Blockade of the Yangtze River. Ordered Annan to guard Lin Cha, and led the three naval divisions of Annan, Guangdong, and Guangxi to advance eastward and march into Fujian. ”
"Send an order to Zhou Fuchen, don't say anything, and tell me about the current situation."
"The Nanjing battalion immediately entered a state of alert and ordered all the coastal prefectures and counties to immediately assemble to resist the attack from the sea."
One order after another came from Nanjing. Zhang Xuan immediately summoned Li Dingguo, the northern generals could not be moved lightly in the face of the pressure of the Qing court, and if Zhang Xuan drove the expedition in person, if he did not win, it would be a little difficult to do.
But Zhang Xuan just didn't have the confidence to beat Zheng Chenggong.
Not really
The Zheng family is more capable of fighting, but at sea.
It is easy to defeat the Zheng family, but it is not easy to eradicate the Zheng family. Zhang Xuan decided that Li Dingguo would handle this matter. After consulting with Li Dingguo, let Li Dingguo be the king of Jin, the privy envoy, the general of Pinghai, and the governor of Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, and Guangxi. Pacify the rebellion of Zheng Jing.
If it was just Zheng Jing, there would be no need for such a big battle.
Everyone knows that this incident is actually coming for Zheng Chenggong.
On Banten's side, naturally I also heard the wind.
Even the time when Zheng Chenggong got the news was still above the imperial court.
After all, the imperial court is in ambush in Taiwan, and Taiwan is Zheng Chenggong's lair, how can there be no secret hands. Once there is any change in Taiwan, Zheng Chenggong will be the first to know about it.
It's just that Taiwan is too far from Java.
When Zheng Jing attacked Quanzhou, Zheng Chenggong received the news.
There was simply no time to react, and there was no time to stop.
For a while, Zheng Chenggong seemed to be a teenager old, locked himself in his room, and didn't want to see anyone.
It's just that paper can't contain fire.
However, Zhou Fuchen also got the news, so in a place thousands of miles away from Nanjing, also in the Xia army, Zhou Fuchen's department and the Zheng family's department began to fight between each other.
It was originally a comrade-in-arms who fought side by side, but now it has become an enemy.
It's just that Zhou Fuchen didn't dare to act rashly.
After all, the opposite is Zheng Chenggong, Zheng Chenggong has been in the army for more than ten years, and he has made a great statement, from the beginning of Luo Rucai's westward march, from Zhang Xuan's breaking of the Ming army, to the later Battle of Nanjing, the Korean Liaodong War, and now the Battle of the South, he is a famous general in Daxia, and Zhou Fuchen is self-aware.
He is actually not as good as Zheng Chenggong.
But as Zhang Xuan's die-hard loyalist, he would never bow to the traitors. So, he was now living on the ship, ready to pull out at any moment.
He wanted to bring back the fleet in his hand as it was. But he was worried that the Zheng family would follow.
After all, Nanyang has gathered the main force of the Great Xia Naval Division, and even if all the remaining naval divisions are accumulated, it is not as prosperous as the current Nanyang Naval Division.
Once these sailors were obtained by Zheng Chenggong, for a few years, the imperial court had no ability to intervene overseas. Therefore, Zhou Fuchen felt a great responsibility, and had decided that he would rather die in battle than give these ships to Zheng Chenggong.
It's just that Zhou Fuchen never expected that what he was waiting for was not Zheng Chenggong's general attack, but a handwritten letter sent by Zheng Chenggong, inviting Zhou Fuchen to go to the Governor's Mansion for a talk.
For a while, Zhou Fuchen was entangled. He clearly had a hunch, don't look at the strength of the two sides, but once the war starts, only Zheng Chenggong can win.
This is determined by the command ability of the generals.
But Zhou Fuchen was worried that if he went and was killed by Zheng Chenggong, the life and death of a person would be small, and it would not be good to miss the major events of the court.
