Just when Zhang Qiang was planning to trap the Manchu Tartars, sent Jin Lin, and Chahar returned to the Chahar grassland, Tian Bin fled to the Zhenjiang area of Jinling with 2,000 defeated troops, trying to blend in with the Qing army.

Zhang Mingzhen, who led the Lu Wang Naval Division to prepare for an attack on Chongming Island and fought several rounds with the Qing Army's Naval Division, came to visit Zhang Qiang.

At this time, Zhang Qiang had already returned to Jinhua Mansion to carry out the follow-up army reorganization work.

The three field brigades have been reorganized and their weapons have been reloaded, and they are ready to go into battle when they are fully staffed.

At this time, the Qing army finally invaded Fujian and took Ganzhou, and the Longwu court panicked for a while, and frequently mobilized troops to counterattack, and he resisted the Qing army's attacks in other directions.

After all, the confidence of the Longwu court was weaker, and the Qing army broke through successfully, Kong Youde and Shang Kexi took the Ganzhou Mansion with the Han army banner and went towards Zhangzhou Mansion.

Li Chengdong and Jin Shenghuan at this time but they had a conflict with the Qing army, Li Chengdong wanted to return to the Nanming Longwu court, Jin Shenghuan too, most of Jiangxi and Hubei were occupied by the three of them, for a while, the momentum of the Nanming Dynasty rose, but the situation in the Longwu court is not necessarily good, the situation in the Yongli court is not good, Sichuan has been pacified by Haoge for the most part, Dashun is in Kuidong, the Three Gorges line continues to resist the Qing army, and Li Dingguo and others retreated to Yunnan, fighting with the Tusi of Yunnan, and at the same time have to guard against the attack of Geng Jingzhong and other Han military banners in Guizhou.

Yongli fled to Burma, where the Burmese king told them to lay down their arms and take refuge in Burma.

Hu Kui and Feng Wuyu's troops were hiding in the city of Guangzhou with the people of the Longwu court, and they faced the siege of the Qing army.

And Zheng Hongkui, who had been unable to get along with the Portuguese, hurriedly collected his troops and retreated to Quanzhou Mansion.

Jin Shenghuan and Li Chengdong, Li Youde surrendered to the Longwu court, Longwu made them admirals, and asked them to turn against the Qing army in Hunan and Hubei, while in Fujian, Longwu sent Su Guansheng and Zhu Dadian, Zhang Tianlu, to attack the rebellious Ruan Jie and attack in the direction of Ganzhou.

In Jinhua Mansion, Zhang Qiang met with Zhang Mingzhen.

Zhang Mingzhen is a very famous person, he is a more loyal and capable person in King Lu's army, but he mistakenly voted for someone, and King Lu's strength or their strategic principles and policies are too urgent.

The strategy aimed at restoring the reputation and legitimacy of King Lu was ultimately a failure.

According to historical records, in the second year of Lu Jianguo (1647), he learned that the gentry of Susong had revolted, and the united front ship entered Chongming, but the boat was defeated. The Qing army advanced and welcomed the king of Lu to live in Zhoushan. Zhoushan fell, and the king of Fenglu succeeded according to Zheng. Later, he and Zhang Huangyan attacked Chongming and Zhenjiang many times, and entered Jinling, trying to recover. In the eighth year of Yongli, Zheng Chenggong wanted to recover Zhoushan and died in the army.

There are many discrepancies in the historical record, and some people say so.

Zhang Mingzhen, died in 1654, the name is Houfu, Han nationality, Ming Dynasty Nanzhili Yingtianfu Jiangning County (now Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province). One said that he was from Shanxi, and he was from Nanjing. Formerly served as a guerrilla in Shipu, Taizhou, and was a general of Feng Fuping. In the first year of Hongguang (1645), King Fu was executed, recruited righteous teachers, and tried to restore it. and Zhang Huangyan and others supported the establishment of the king of Lu in Shaoxing. Later, King Fenglu returned to Zhoushan from Kinmen, Fujian.

Specifically, there is such a record.

On the 17th day of the first month of the eighth year of Yongli (1654), Zhang Mingzhen, Liu Kongzhao, Zhang Huangyan and other Ming troops entered the mouth of the Yangtze River in batches by boat, rushed through the Wolf Mountain (now an important town along the river in the south of Nantong City, Jiangsu), Fushan (opposite to the Wolf Mountain), Jiangyin, Jingjiang, Menghe, Yangshe, Sanjiang, Guishan (now Zhenjiang City) and other Qing army river flood control areas, and arrived in Guazhou on the 21st. The Ming army went ashore at Jinshan and seized ten Qing army anti-river cannons, gunpowder, money and grain. Zhang Mingzhen, Liu Kongzhao, Zhang Huangyan and others led 500 soldiers to climb the Jinshan Temple, and worshiped the Ming Tomb in the southeast direction, inscribed poems and sent laments.

On August 6 of the thirteenth year of Yongli (1659), Zheng Chenggong, a famous general at the end of the Ming Dynasty, led his troops to retreat from Ningnan to attack Chongming. On the 8th, Zheng sent Liang Dongyu and others to the city to persuade him to surrender. At dawn on the 11th, Zheng soldiers surrounded the county town and bombarded it with huge cannons, destroying more than 100 towers in the northwest corner. Then, the moat was filled in, and the ladder was erected to attack. The Zheng army attacked the city seven times in a row, and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Qing army defending the city at the city tower, but still did not conquer the county seat. On the 14th, Zheng Chenggong led his troops south.

Some people also say that Zhang Mingzhen died of Zheng Chenggong's poisoning, but after all, it is a non-negotiable thing, so history has different opinions for our future generations, and I don't know which one is right.

Don't talk about history, let's just say that now, Zheng Chenggong learned that Ningbo Mansion and Shaoxing Mansion had been recovered, and King Lu returned to Shaoxing Mansion, and Zhang Huangyan contacted him, and immediately led a large army to come, and joined Zhang Mingzhen to storm Chongming Island.

The two of them sat down relatively closely, Zhang Qiang would not put a shelf on Zhang Mingzhen just because he was the governor, the traverser had a habit, that is, collecting celebrities, celebrities like Zhang Mingzhen, of course Zhang Qiang had to treat each other politely.

Zhang Huangyan is too loyal, and he has his own thoughts, Zhang Qiang used words to cover Zhang Huangyan several times, but Zhang Huangyan avoided answering, so Zhang Qiang felt that at this time, when he did not show the banner of the lord, or a generation of Ming Lord, no one would take the initiative to defect to him, especially Zhang Huangyan.

But Zhang Zhang Mingzhen is a person, Zhang Qiang wants to test it and see if he can accept it.

Such a person is actually suitable for serving as a civilian official, a prefect or something, but not for leading troops to fight.

The two of them went around and around, and it took a long time to get to the point, there is no way, this is the common disease of people in this era, it should be said that it is a common problem of officials and literati, Zhang Qiang doesn't want to, but in order to subdue Zhang Mingzhen, Zhang Qiang can only endure it.

"Lord Governor, when the national disaster is at this point, he just does not move, does not want to forge ahead, he is really a person who has the talent of this life, I have seen Jinhua Mansion before I came, the people live and work in peace and contentment, all industries are prosperous, the spirit of the army is quite full, and the demeanor of a strong army, I don't know why the Lord is nesting in this province, willing to be a turtle governor?" Zhang Mingzhen unceremoniously said Zhang Qiang's current situation.

Zhang Qiang smiled and asked rhetorically: "Lord Zhang, if it weren't for my painstaking management, how could I have repeatedly defeated the strong army of the Qing army?" Where can the people live and work in peace and contentment? ”

"This-" Zhang Mingzhen was a little speechless and couldn't answer.

After thinking for a while, he said: "In this case, our considerations are different, so I will say it directly, when I was in contact with Zheng Jun, I found that Zheng Jun's soldiers and horses are strong and have strong combat effectiveness, not to mention the naval warship, just say that the soldiers on the ship, all brave and good at fighting, it is said that they are trained by the adults, how to say that we are also Ming officials, not to say that the same dynasty is an official, but also belongs to the Ming people, and when the country is recovered, you and I may be officials of the same dynasty, there is such a commonality, Could you, Lord Governor, let your men train our army as well, and provide some weapons and armor so that we can recover the Holy Capital as soon as possible and return the Son of Heaven to the throne. ”

Zhang Qiang said: "That Son of Heaven? King Lu? ”

Changing his sitting position, Zhang Qiang cocked Erlang's legs, and said: "Lord Zhang is a subordinate official of King Lu, and I am Longwu, a subordinate of King Tang, you are here to mention King Lu as the Son of Heaven, should I arrest you, and then send it to King Tang to let King Tang deal with you?" ”
