Chapter 344: Jiangnan Uprising

Dai Zhijun traveled all the way, found Chen Zilong on Taihu Lake, and after getting the letter, he went to Zhoushan to meet His Royal Highness King Lu.

The Heaven and Earth Society and the Taihu Rebels were both pro-Tang factions, but the land south of the Yangtze River and eastern Zhejiang, in fact, was the influence of King Lu, which was far more powerful than the Longwu court.

This has nothing to do with anything else, but is geographically determined, after all, King Lu is on the eastern coast of Zhejiang, while the Longwu court is far away in Fujian.

For the anti-Qing forces in Jiangnan, it is far easier to contact King Lu than to contact Longwu, and the transmission of news will also shorten the time by a lot and will not delay the opportunity.

From this point of view, the Tang-Lu controversy really seriously depleted the anti-Qing forces, making it impossible for the two factions to cooperate effectively and delaying many fighters.

This time, there was a great change in Fujian, the situation of the Longwu Imperial Court, even the Heaven and Earth Society was not clear, rumors were spreading, Chen Zilong was no longer able to contact the Imperial Court, he had to contact the Heaven and Earth Society, and Lu Fan.

Chen Zilong did not have the right to be an official Xu Jue, and he could not contact the imperial court, and he was too late in time, and what he said naturally could not make Wu Shengzhao abandon his scruples, so he could only let Dai Zhijun go to Zhoushan to seek an official for Wu Shengzhao.

Lu Fan and Longwu, if they were born in the year of peace, they can be regarded as virtuous kings, but the two were born in the same era and became opponents.

After clearing the Qing army in eastern Zhejiang, Lu Fan went out to sea, and after entering Longwu in Fujian in the south, he returned to Zhoushan by boat.

At this time, Zhang Mingzhen, a general under King Lu, lost no time in proposing the "Longzhong Pair" to encourage King Lu's confidence.

Zhang Mingzhen admonished that based on the sea, with Zhoushan as the base, using the name and prestige of the "prison state" to recruit talents, first attack the coastal areas as the foundation, and at the same time properly handle relations with overseas countries, and strive for the help of Korea and Japan, and when facing the Longwu court, learn the previous lesson, no longer adopt a-for-tat policy, and let the Longwu regime drag down the Qing army as much as possible.

In this way, it can form a three-point world, so that the Qing court, the Longwu regime and the Lu Jianguo have become the full momentum, and when the south of the Yangtze River is empty, the Ming Dynasty is expected to revive with elite troops to attack Nanjing.

Zhang Mingzhen's admonition was appreciated by King Lu, in fact, the fall of eastern Zhejiang, and the change in central Fujian, have made Longwu and King Lu suffer the bitter fruit of the dispute over the same surname.

Just like the Hongguang Imperial Court was destroyed because of the national policy of "Lianyu Pingkou", and after Longwu succeeded to the throne, he immediately learned a lesson, changed the national policy, and changed it to "Lianshun to resist the capture", King Lu was bound to reflect after experiencing the defeat of eastern Zhejiang, and the ministers around him who advocated fighting with Longwu were either killed in battle or surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, which made his thinking change accordingly, and tended to understand the same Longwu forces.

At this time, Zhang Mingzhen and Zhang Huangyan learned that the Heaven and Earth Society was going to plot against Wu Shengzhao, and joined forces with Zhoushan to attack Suzhou and Hangzhou, and contain Hong Chengchou's plan, and their hearts couldn't help but move, feeling that this was a rare opportunity.

As long as they had the support of Wu Shengzhao and the Taihu Rebels, they could easily take the Su and Song regions, and then whether they went south to attack Hangzhou or west to Nanjing, it was possible, and even if they didn't succeed in the end, they could also use this to promote the anti-Qing struggle in the south of the Yangtze River.

Therefore, King Lu quickly agreed to Dai Zhijun's request, and immediately asked Zhang Mingzhen to cast a "Seal of General Pingjiang" in silver, and then sealed Wu Shengzhao as the edict of General Wu Bojia Pingjiang, and asked Dai Zhijun to bring it back to Songjiang and hand it over to Wu Shengzhao to settle his mind.

In addition, the two sides also agreed that on 15 August, the Zhoushan officers and troops would arrive at Wusong and cooperate with Wu Shengzhao and Chen Zilong inside and outside to jointly participate in the great cause of restoring the Ming Dynasty.

After the defeat of eastern Zhejiang, the power of King Lu was seriously damaged, but it has not stopped the struggle to restore vision, after Dai Zhijun left Zhoushan, the restoration of vision in Ningbo, also came to Zhoushan, a turbulent torrent, is quietly brewing in the south of the Yangtze River.

The secret tandem of the Restoration Forces in Jiangnan soon aroused the vigilance of the sticky pole, and unconsciously strengthened the patrols in various places, the search of the Qing soldiers became more and more strict, and the transmission of news between the Restoration Forces and the organization of the people against the Qing Dynasty became difficult.

On 7 August, Xie Yaowen, an anti-Qing scholar, was caught at the sticky pole and copied out more than 20 documents, lists, and letters, implicating Chongzhen in the third year of Ying Tianjie's resignation of Yuan Yin, and raising Gu Xianzheng, Hou Qizeng, Zhang Kuan, and other 34 scholars, who were beheaded by the Qing court without distinction between heads and subordinates.

In all the prefectures south of the Yangtze River, the inspection of the Qing soldiers has been strengthened, and groups of Qing soldiers and government officials in the city have patrolled the streets, making the city full of tense atmosphere.

On August 14, as the Mid-Autumn Festival approached, the tense atmosphere eased somewhat, and some gentry and common people buying festive goods appeared on the streets.

The pastries of the Jiangnan generation are very famous, the Mid-Autumn Festival is an important festival, every household has to eat a moon cake, in the shops in the city, many people have bought moon cakes for the festival.

At this time, a team of Qing soldiers also patrolled to the front of the store, and the shopkeeper immediately came out and sent a box to each Qing soldier with a smile, and the team of Qing soldiers turned around and left with a smile.

In Ningbo City, Wang Jiaqin came back from the street, returned to the study, then closed the doors and windows, and took out the moon cakes bought from the store.

His heart immediately moved, and when he opened it to look at it, he saw that it was written in small block letters: "August 15." ”

Wang Jiaqin raised his eyebrows slightly, and he already understood that in the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, on the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, Liu Bowen conveyed the message of killing Tartars to the majority of farmers through moon cakes, so a large-scale anti-Yuan uprising broke out.

The killing of Tartars on the fifteenth day of August, or the killing of Tartars at the full moon, has become a folk story.

Recently, the wind has been very tight, and Wang Jiaqin has not been able to contact Huaxia and others at all, and when he saw the words "August 15", he understood what it meant.

This is Huaxia is sending a message to the people who have regained their sight in the city, of course, not everyone can get the moon cakes with notes, only the core personnel can get them.

Wang Jiaqin read the note, stuffed it into the moon cake again, and then wrapped it again, then called a reliable subordinate, selected a few more things, plus the moon cake, and let the subordinate send it to the patriarch of the Wang clan outside the city.

On August 15, the moon and stars are scarce, the city gate of Ningbo has long been closed, but outside the city has slowly gathered nearly 10,000 people with hoes and flat shoulders, the defenders at the city gate only see a piece of black pressure under the city, and they have no time to report to the county, they see that the direction of the county government is burning a skyrocketing fire, and the whole city inside and outside, immediately there is a big uproar.

At the same time, in Songjiang City, Wu Shengzhao took the opportunity of August 15 to invite the Qing court to Haiphong Tongzhi Yang Zhiyi, push the official Chonglang, and come to the Admiralty's Office to admire the moon.

Three days later, in the Jiangning City Governor's Office, Hong Chengchou was processing the paperwork and allocating grain and grass materials to support Tan Tai's troops to march into Jiangxi.

Hou Fangyu held a few copies of the report in his hand, and when he came to Hong Chengchou's official room, he paused slightly, and then shouted in a panic: "Governor, something is wrong~ something is wrong~", and hurriedly ran into the office.

In the room, Hong Chengchou and all the subordinates couldn't help but look at him when they saw this, and Hong Chengchou reproached: "Why are you so flustered? ”

Hou Fangyu looked shocked and said: "Governor, Wu Shengzhao rebelled, and Chen Zilong attacked Suzhou, Zhoushan Ming Army and Naval Division entered the Wusong line, in addition to eastern Zhejiang, Ningbo, Taizhou, Jinhua and other more than ten prefectures and counties, rebellion occurred at the same time. The land of Wudong is not owned by the Qing Dynasty~"
