Chapter 145: The End of Zheng Cai 11

In January 648, in the fifth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, the fourth year of Longwu in the Southern Ming Dynasty, and the second year of Yongli, Zheng Zhilong's third-class force in the maritime forces, Zheng Cai's forces were exterminated by the Jinhua Righteous Army, and the rest were all returned to Zheng Chenggong.

The commander of the Jinhua Righteous Army, the governor of Zhejiang, Zhang Qiang, had a naval division that could fully undertake the maritime protection of the Jinhua Righteous Army's homeland.

The First Naval Division of the Jinhua Righteous Army with Ming Dynasty characteristics, which consisted of 120 large Fu ships, 180 medium-sized Fu ships, 270 bird ships, sand ships, and centipede ships, became the main maritime force of the Jinhua Yi Army.

The First Fleet of the Jinhua Rebels, consisting of two Galen ships with 600 materials to be captured, three Portuguese Clark armed merchant ships with 400 materials, and five medium-sized bird ships with 200 materials and eight centipede ships, became the main striking force of the Jinhua Rebels.

This distinction is because the First Naval Division is mainly based on the Ming Dynasty, and the First Fleet is mainly dominated by the captured Portuguese and Dutch.

This is also a compromise of Zhang Qiang in order to appease those subordinates who think that the Ming Dynasty sailors are powerful, and he does not want to give up the advanced ships and methods of the Western Navy, and at the same time, in order to accommodate the many Ming Dynasty-style ships and Ming Dynasty pirates and fishermen, as well as the original sailors and officers and soldiers.

The screened captives were assigned to the two sailors, and the pirates and fishermen, who were die-hard, unwilling to surrender, stubborn in resistance, or of little use, were sent to the captive camps, and the most extreme were sent to the hard labor camps.

Depending on the circumstances and background, the prisoner camp will be disposed of in three stages: release after three years of labor and then release to the people, release to the people after five years of labor, and release to the people after ten years of labor.

In the case of hard labor camps, there is only one way to deal with it, which is to make the best use of the people after they have worked to death, and of course they can have their sentences commuted to 20 years of hard work, release them to the people, and place them under residential surveillance.

And those leaders, such as Zheng Cai, Zheng Fu and others, are imprisoned, when they have an idea, when to dispose of it, or they have the idea of surrendering, they can be like Qi Sansheng, Ma Weixing and others as subordinates, they are just imprisoned in the prison, eat and drink well, but they can't be released.

And for those who massacre coastal villages and harass the people, there is only one way, to expose each other, and then to be executed in public trials everywhere.

This execution, more than 3,000 people were killed, and the people and officials in the entire Zhang Qiang territory were killed, and the squires were silent, trembling, and no longer dared to deal with bad water.

The Governor's Mansion is also the residence of the former Zhu Dadian.

It has been expanded, renovated and restored to its former luxury.

The front door archway, the wall, the stone lion, the tall gatehouse, the vermilion lacquer gate, the copper nail decoration, a gate up to five meters high, two side doors more than two meters wide, three meters high, the side door has a small door that allows a person to pass through, enter the gate, on both sides is the gatehouse, on one side is the house where the gate lives, on one side is the guard room, for the guards standing guard in front of the door to rest and use the house.

Entering is a small patio, up the steps, behind the patio is a small square, behind the square is a lobby, used to judge cases and meet some public figures, deal with official affairs, and then from the back from both sides of the lobby bypass, there is a row of side rooms, used to entertain guests, live people.

Behind the wing was a garden, flanked on the left and right by the subordinates, the kitchen, the storeroom, and a number of small gardens, which were used for the offices of the various agencies of the Doge's Palace.

Further back, there is an antique three-story building, the main entrance on the first floor is the passage to the back, the lobby on the west side, a small conference room on the east side, and a large conference room that used to accommodate hundreds of people similar to the restaurant of the later hotel.

On the second floor, some of the upper floors of the institution are housed as well as offices, small conference rooms.

The third floor is Zhang Qiang's governor's office, gorgeous and simple, with bedrooms, reception rooms, warehouses, kitchens, studies, as well as guardhouses, staff offices, and staff lounges.

Through the passage under the building, there is a garden at the back, and in the middle of the garden is where Zhang Qiang's family lives.

A few hundred meters apart, behind a fence was a large courtyard with warehouses, a chaser station, stables, a small garden, a fire dragon department, and a racetrack.

The walls around the governor's palace were as tall as residential buildings, covered with broken glass shards, and a barbed wire fence one and a half meters high, and there were enough watchtowers and arrow towers on all sides, and in each arrow tower were stationed a platoon, five soldiers, two musketeers, an archer, a pikeman, and a sword and shield soldier.

On this day, Zhang Qiang met with his three henchmen in the Sanjin Compound, in his governor's office, Zhou Congee, Wei Wuji, Hu Kui, and of course, the housekeeper Zhu Dayou was standing next to him.

"Mowgli, tell me about the harvest this time." Zhang Qiang always likes to listen to his subordinates report the results of each battle.

Giving always wants to get something in return, and it's the same for everyone.

If it weren't for Zheng Cai's repeated provocations, Zhang Qiang didn't want to provoke Zheng Cai for the time being, after all, his sea strength at that time was really unsightly, too weak.

Wei Wuji was also quite happy, although he didn't have any credit this time, but he also had hard work, he went and collected all the wealth that Zheng Cai had accumulated and looted with Zheng Chenggong for more than ten years.

In the previous battles, he could only stay in Jinhua as a defender, and this time he went out to get back so much wealth for the Jinhua Righteous Army, he was still very happy, and with this wealth, he was enough to gain a firm foothold in Zhang Qiang's group.

Zhou Congee looked at Wei Wuji's excited appearance and said with a smile: "Wuji, didn't you move a golden mountain back?" ”

Wei Wuji said proudly: "Not to mention Jinshan, it's almost the same as Jinshan, I really didn't expect Zheng Cai to be so rich, if we have so much silver, we will definitely be stronger than now, and we can do a lot of things." You see, the adults have tried their best to search everywhere for the food of the territory, but they can't satisfy the people of the territory, and even the food of the army is in short supply from time to time. ”

Hu Kui nodded, this is true.

Zhang Qiang's direct Jinhua Volunteer Army's troops of more than 13,000 people are okay, but the food of the troops under their command has dropped a little, two meals a day, and the food is not very good, although this is already a heaven and an earth compared to the people, but compared to the tasks they undertake and high-intensity training, this is obviously not enough, and many people often look hungry.

"How much?" Hu Kui asked eagerly.
