Jin Shenghuan and Li Chengdong caused turmoil in the whole of China anyway, and the balance of power in various places began to change, but Zhu Hongsan, the initiator of this incident, is still living like a breeding pig in Guangdong.

Li Chengdong's news arrived in Guangzhou anyway with Tong Tuchang's report of victory, and the small court in Guangzhou immediately seemed to be boiling, and various prime ministers asked His Majesty the Emperor to order Jin Shenghuan and Li Chengdong to recover Nanjing, and asked Zhu Hongsan to return to the old capital.

Qian Qianyi is the most active supporter of returning to the old capital, this is very simple, Nanzhili is the base camp of the Donglin Party, although the power of the Donglin Party is not as strong as before, but it is still there at all.

"Your Majesty, if you return to the old capital, Your Majesty's prestige will be unmatched except for Emperor Taizu, and Zhu Youlang, the King of Gui in Guangxi, will definitely lie prone and kneel in front of Your Majesty!"

Old man Qian is a camel who doesn't brag, and he still walks on his knees, why don't you say that Zhu Youlang was directly frightened by himself and fainted, and then disarmed himself to offer his wife and daughter!

Zhu Hongsan looked at Qian Qianyi's mouth foaming at the mouth, and didn't say anything, just noncommittal.

When Qian Qianyi saw the attitude of Emperor Shenwu sitting on it, he was even more fearless, jumping up and down and making nonsense.

In the end, Vice Premier Huang Yingxiu couldn't stand it anymore, and stood up and said: "Lord Qian, we all know the benefits of returning to the old capital, you have to pay attention to your identity!" ”

Qian Qianyi has become more and more proud in the past few months by plotting against Jin Shenghuan, and now he sees his ally Huang Yingxiu sent by Guangdong to say that he can still bear it.

"Lord Huang, do you object to Your Majesty returning to the old capital? You are cutting yourself off from Your Majesty and from the people of the world! ”

Huang Yingxiu saw Qian Qianyi's dog biting Lu Dongbin who didn't know the hearts of good people, and he also buttoned his hat indiscriminately, and he was so angry that he couldn't help it. On the side, Huguang sent Ma Mingyuan, Tong Yangjia, Feng Ziyong and others, and when they saw Qian Qianyi and the Guangdong rats moving against each other, they were happy to see the excitement and no one came out to dissuade them.

Zhu Hongsan saw that Qian Qianyi was making a lot of trouble, and made Huang Yingxiu angry to death, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Qian, don't buckle your hat indiscriminately!" Mr. Huang, I know it in my heart! ”

Huang Yingxiu heard that His Majesty the Emperor gave him a head, so he breathed a sigh of relief and ignored Qian Qianyi, returned to his embroidery pier and sat down.

Seeing that Qian Qianyi was no longer troublesome, Zhu Hongsan opened his mouth and said: "Now the anti-Qing situation is very good, and I also know the benefits of returning to the old capital, now I have decided to take action with the whole army and attack Zhejiang and Nanzhili!" ”

Zhu Hongsan still doesn't know that Jiang Hao in the north is also about to move, and now there is no large Qing army in the whole of South China, which is really a good time to seize territory, not to mention that Zhejiang and Nanzhili are such big fat meat as they put it in their mouths, and they are really sorry for themselves if they don't take a bite. Therefore, after thinking twice, Zhu Hong decided to mobilize the whole army and strive to occupy Nanzhili and Zhejiang before the Manchus reacted.

Zhu Hongsan now has a total of only 100,000 men and eight divisions, namely Qian Yong's 1st Division in Chaozhou Prefecture, Zhao Guodong's 2nd Division in Zhoushan Islands, Wang Jinbao's 3rd Division in Nanyang, Ma Liang's 4th Division in Ganzhou, and Zhang Sanqiang's 6th Division in Guangzhou in order to guard against Zhou Yu's 5th Division in Guangxi in Zhaoqing, plus Han Shirong's 7th Division and Wang Kun's 8th Division in Dongguan, which are exactly 100,000 people.

The troops of Nanyang and Zhaoqing could not move, and the Nanyang side was holding off with the Spaniards during this period of time, and Zhaoqing had to guard against Guangxi. Zhu Hongsan has already received the news that the Great Western Army has been subordinated to Zhu Youlang, and Li Dingguo and Zhu Hongsan, who are "famous kings of the two Turks", still know that they are powerful, so Zhou Yu's fifth division must not move. and Zhang Sanqiang's Praetorian Guard Division can't move, the last Li Chengdong incident made Zhu Hongsanhao lose his life, and this time he will not move his own life-saving troops.

Zhu Hongsan thought about it for a while, and there were already two divisions of more than 20,000 people in the direction of Fujian and Zhejiang, and the troops were almost enough, but Jiangxi was still struggling, so he had to send the Seventh Division, a recruit division that had been organized for less than two months, to Jiangxi and hand it over to Zhang Jiayu's command. Leaving the 6th Division of the Praetorian Division and the 8th Division of the Recruit Division in his hometown in Guangdong should be enough.

In the past five or six years, Zhu Hongsan has spared no effort to invest, and now the navy has 10 first-class warships of 1,200 tons, 22 second-class warships of 500 tons, countless other auxiliary vessels, and a total of 50,000 officers and men. The Guangdong Navy has surpassed Zheng Chenggong and the Dutch in Nanyang to become the number one surface force in Asia.

In order to build this navy, Zhu Hongsan spent a sea of silver, each first-class battleship cost 100,000 taels of silver, and each second-class battleship needed 30,000 taels of silver. However, the effect of spending money is still there, and the Spaniards and Dutch in the South Seas see this kind of big war ship honestly. In order to form an overwhelming superiority over the Spanish and Dutch in the South Seas, eight of the ten first-class battleships were in the South Seas, and this time all of them were to be transferred to Nanzhili, leaving only twelve second-class battleships.

In this way, eighty percent of the navy will be concentrated in the Zhoushan Islands, and this commander is an important candidate. Zhu Hongsan has already been selected, and it is Li Zhi.

Li Zhi has managed the sea patrol for many years, and is the only civilian official in Zhu Hongsan's team who knows naval warfare, plus Li Zhi can talk to the Huguang faction and the Guangdong faction, so he is a competent candidate for the navy.

Zhu Hongsan thought of the candidate in his mind, and said: "Order the Seventh Division of Dongguan to go north to Ganzhou, put it under the jurisdiction of Zhang Jiayu, and manage it under the management of Jiang Yueguang, the governor of Huguang and Jiangxi, and order Jiang Yueguang to occupy Jiujiang, and then go up the river to seize Huguang; The Nanyang Navy left only twelve second-class warships and auxiliary ships, all the others were transferred to Zhoushan, and the first division of Qian Yong in Chaozhou was also transferred to Zhoushan, and Li Zhi, the governor of Nanzhili, was ordered to be promoted to the governor of Fujian, Zhejiang, and Nanzhili, and all the combat matters of the army and navy in Zhoushan were lost! ”

The prime ministers did not expect that Zhu Hongsan could directly promote Li Zhi, and it stands to reason that this kind of war must send a university scholar from the central government to lead the troops, but he did not expect His Majesty to directly use Li Zhi. However, the prime ministers have no opinions, although Li Zhi was still a five-grade petty official a few years ago, but after all, he is also his own person.

But then the ministers can't stay out of the matter, because Zhu Hongsan continued: "Gentlemen, let's discuss the candidates for the governors of Zhejiang, Nanzhili, and Fujian next!" ”

This is a critical time to divide the fruits, although Zhejiang and Nanzhili are now in the hands of the Manchus, but everyone knows that the Manchus are now too busy to take care of themselves, and it is only a matter of time before they occupy these places.

As soon as Zhu Hongsan's words fell, Tong Yangjia jumped out.

"Your Majesty, the minister's nephew Tong Tuchang said in a letter that Yuan Pengnian, the former Fujian scholar and politician, contributed a lot when he rebelled against Li Chengdong, and the minister recommended him as the governor of Fujian!"

Zhu Hongsan knew about Yuan Pengnian in the news from Jinyiwei, knew that he was a member of the Huguang Public Security, and he was considered his own person, plus Tong Yangjia's strong recommendation, he couldn't refute the prime minister's face, Zhu Hongsan said with a smile: "Since this is the case, it is recommended by Mr. Tong, and there is also a great contribution to the nephew's rebellion against Li Chengdong this time, and he was ordered to serve as the political envoy of Fujian!" ”

Tong Yangjia was overjoyed when he heard Zhu Hongsan say this, today is really a bumper harvest. Ma Mingyuan, who was on the side, saw Tong Yangjia like this, and said coldly: "Lord Tong is really virtuous and does not avoid relatives!" Although Ma Mingyuan didn't like Tong Yangjia, he did not object to Yuan Pengnian's appointment, because Yuan Pengnian is a native of Huguang, and in the general direction, Ma Mingyuan and Tong Yangjia have the same interests, that is, the principle of priority for Huguang people.

Qian Qianyi saw that the three provinces had been robbed of one by the Huguang faction, and quickly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister recommended Huang Zongxi, a native of Shaoxing, Zhejiang, to serve as the governor of Zhejiang, and now Huang Taichong is leading a rebel army in eastern Zhejiang to resist the Qing Dynasty, and the minister can contact him!" ”

Ma Mingyuan couldn't get used to Qian Qianyi's villain appearance the most, and stood up and said: "Huang Taichong has never been a magistrate for a day, so it's not good to be directly appointed as the governor!" ”

Qian Qianyi saw Ma Mingyuan opposing his candidate, and said: "Now is an extraordinary time, we must implement extraordinary laws, Huang Taichong is an honest official, and his official reputation is excellent, and it must be feasible to govern Zhejiang with him!" ”

Huang Yingxiu, who was from the Guangdong faction on the side, stood up and said: "Lord Qian, it seems that there is a rule in my court that locals are not allowed to be local officials, and this Huang Taichong seems to be from Zhejiang!" ”

Huang Yingxiu's opposition to himself caught Qian Qianyi off guard, he and the Guangdong faction are allies, why did he jump out against him today?

Ma Mingyuan looked at Huang Yingxiu and smiled silently, this Qian Qianyi has been too happy in the past few months. Your Donglin Party has already occupied Jiangxi and Huguang, and this time you still want to reach into Zhejiang and Nanzhili, and it is strange that the Guangdong faction can agree.

Just when Qian Qianyi was stunned, Zhu Hongsan said: "What Mr. Huang said is very right, plus Huang Taichong is too young, let's exercise first, and let Yu Shilong be the governor of Zhejiang!" ”

Because of his meritorious service in the construction of the development zone in Guangzhou Prefecture, Yu Shilong was promoted to the political envoy of Guangdong last year, and Yu Shilong has been an official in Guangzhou for many years, so he can be regarded as a Guangdong faction. Huang Yingxiu heard Zhu Hongsan say this, and returned to the class without any opinion.

There is one of the most important governors of Nanzhili left below, and the Nanzhili of the Ming Dynasty included Jiangsu and Anhui in later generations, which was basically about the same as the power of the Liangjiang Governor of the Qing Dynasty, which was an important errand.

At this time, Ma Mingyuan stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the position of governor of Nanzhili is important, and it must be held by an important minister, and the minister recommends Ma Jiyuan, the governor of Nanyang, to serve as it!" ”

Hearing Ma Mingyuan recommend his eldest brother to be the governor of Nanzhili, Zhu Hongsan frowned, Ma Jiyuan has been assigned to Nanyang for a year, and he was also responsible for Ma Mingyuan back then, and now let him come back. Ma Jiyuan didn't care about his prestige, qualifications, and ability, and the Guangdong faction didn't say anything, and Zhu Hongsan agreed when he saw that no one objected.

Next is the recommendation of some deputy provincial officials, Qian Qianyi suffered from the lack of candidates in his hands, most of the officials were divided between the Guangdong faction and the Huguang faction, Qian Qianyi only won an official position for his disciple Chen Zilong as a political envoy in Zhejiang.
