On the first day of the first lunar month, at nine o'clock in the morning, the drums and trumpets sounded in unison under the Ming Filial Piety Mausoleum in Nanjing, Chen Minghui and his subordinates walked through the mausoleum and entered the hall of enjoyment from the lower horse fang, and used a murderous sacrificial text and one hundred and twenty-five heads symbolizing the Manchu Dynasty to enter the customs one hundred and twenty-five years of the Manchu Dynasty, to commemorate Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty who was sleeping at the southern foot of the Purple Mountain. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Winter in the south of the Yangtze River also snowed, wrapping Nanjing in a layer of silver. At the beginning of the morning light, the snow was covered with a dazzling golden light.

Tens of thousands of soldiers of the Fu Han Army are around the police, and the deployment of military forces has begun since the first half of the month, and the surrounding mountains and forests have been patrolled by the soldiers of the Fu Han Army again and again, so it is necessary to ensure the safety of the worship ceremony. In fact, the Ming Tomb worship ceremony on the first day of the first lunar month did not happen without accidents from beginning to end.

In the early stage when the Fu Han army was about to return to Huguang, Chen Ming brewed this large-scale memorial, which was his long-planned action, and the whole Jiangnan had heard of it, Chen Ming used this sacrifice to show his "ambition" to the whole world for the first time, and at the same time let the Manchus "understand" his next plan.

"............, made at the end of the Zhao and Song dynasties, in Mongolia, Shenzhou Lu Shen, almost a hundred years. My Emperor Gao should rise at the right time, clear the Middle Earth, the sun and the moon are renewed, the rivers and mountains are rebuilt, the righteousness is restored, and the Laizi is revealed. O my people, fathers and brothers, one upon another, and one hundred and twenty years for five years............"

This is a paragraph in the memorial text of Sun Cannon's memorial to the Ming Filial Piety Mausoleum, Chen Ming's bottle is less than half a bottle of swaying historical level, it is impossible for him to write down the whole text, what he can remember is the most brilliant part. This memorial was written by someone from the secretariat, and Chen Ming wrote out this paragraph that he still remembered, and then instructed the people in the secretariat to be sure to add it when writing the memorial text. There is also "spring thunder shakes the ground, and the drunken dream of a thousand years is shocked; When the sun rises, the demon atmosphere of thousands of miles is swept away! In 1911, Chen Ming also remembered a sentence in Shanxi's independent "Seeking Manchu Wen". There are so many "Asking for Manchu Wen", and there are only a few sentences he can remember, and he has to use them all.

As soon as this sacrificial text was issued, it was immediately spread to various places in the south of the Yangtze River by the Fu Han Army, and for a time, in this place where the humanities gathered in the south of the Yangtze River, thousands of scholars and even more people who were ten times more than ten times more than a hundred times more talked about in private were talking about this murderous text - expelling Hulu, restoring China, establishing a program of Chen Ji, and relieving the people. This is a sentence in Zhu Yuanzhang's Northern Expedition against Yuan Yuan, and now it is sung by Chen Ming in China. It is necessary to revive the majesty of the Han family, restore the prestige of the Han officials, respect the mandate of heaven, and dare to be at ease!

Most of the people in Jiangnan are literate and hyphenated, and everyone knows what this means in their hearts.

Many people think that after Chen Ming won the Great War in Northern Jiangsu, he immediately swept the south of the Yangtze River, Suzhou, Hangzhou, and the land of heavenly wealth were captured by the Fu Han army, and the high-ranking governor of Zhejiang and the general of Hangzhou became two more sacrifices under the fame of the Fu Han army. The Fu Han army is no longer a threat on the South Road, whether it is the Qing army in Zhejiang, or the Qing army in Songjiang Mansion, only the Fu Han army will bully them, and there is no part for them to provoke the Fu Han army. So what does Chen Ming mean by sending this sacrificial text now?

Northern expedition! Only the Northern Expedition.

This article was compared by many people with Zhu Yuanzhang's Northern Expedition when he was in the Yuan Dynasty.

Not only did many scholars think of the word 'Northern Expedition', but the officials of the Manchu Qing Dynasty also thought of the Northern Expedition after seeing this murderous memorial text. On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Chen Ming received an express report from the secret camp that in Haizhou on the other side of the Yellow River, six local wealthy and powerful families, large and small, secretly contacted them and expressed their sincerity to the Han army.

Haha, the golden wind has not moved the cicada, and he secretly sends impermanence to death!

This sentence is not appropriate to describe the six powerful families in Haizhou, but it always has a meaning. After Chen Ming got the news, he was first proud of the strong momentum of the Fu Han Army, the local powerful families are the sworn enemies of the Fu Han Army, the government policy of the Fu Han Army to go to the countryside makes them have an inextricable contradiction with the gentry, squire and landlord class, they have never wanted to resist the Fu Han Army, but whether they dare to resist. Every landlord is strong, and the gentry and squires want to resist in their hearts when they face the Fu Han army, but many people don't dare. This is the first time that a local big family has taken the initiative to lose sincerity, but the 'rumors' of the Northern Expedition have spread, and six families have come to the land of Haizhou at once. Obviously, the 'prestige' of the Fu Han Army has been much, much greater than before.

And this also proves Chen Ming's previous prediction, the gentry and landlord class are soft bones, and when they find that they have a murderous knife hanging on their heads, they will decisively kneel. Isn't that the scene in front of you? When the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, wasn't it the same?

It's a pity that the foundations of these six wealthy families are not very clean, Chen Ming dropped the investigation report of the six families sent by the secret camp later, picked up the brush and drew two circles on the six names, and circled two surnames. "Just keep these two, and the remaining four should also be punished." The way of heaven is clear, and people don't report it to me. Chen Ming's voice was very gentle, but the meaning in his words was as cold as winter.

This is to let the dark camp deliberately reveal their whereabouts, so as to leak the connection between the six families in Haizhou and the Fu Han Army to Haizhou's sticky pole and the Manchu Qing government, this kind of thing seems to make the Fu Han Army lose a very good chess piece, but it can deepen the impression that the Qing army thinks that the Fu Han Army wants to 'Northern Expedition', and in addition, the local wealthy families have defected to the Fu Han Army This is the first time in the world, and it can also make the Manchu Qing predicament 'worse' after publicizing it.

Compared with the benefits that Chen Ming can get, what is the strength of the four local wealthy clans? If the Fu Han army goes north with all its strength and hits Beijing, Chen Ming dare not say that it is not a problem to enter Shandong and Hebei. Haizhou, that is the fat on Chen Ming's mouth.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Fu Han army in Zhejiang first began to return north. Since the army swept through Suzhou and Hangzhou last winter, the recruits recruited by the recruiting office in northern Jiangsu formed 40 new battalions, and the Fu Han army, which controlled Hangzhou Bay, made more than a dozen transactions with the naval and land rebels in Fujian in more than a month before the year before the year, collecting millions of catties of sulfur, as well as 4,000 barrels of finished gunpowder sent by the Portuguese, and that barrel was 100 pounds.

Louis came to Hangzhou Bay on the ship Tong'ansuo. The sailing ships of the Europeans were not only eye-catching in Hangzhou Bay, but there was no wind in winter, and the sailing ships could not go north at all.

The logistics force of the Fu Han army has surged from about 20,000 to more than 30,000, and more than 3,000 large and small boats, sand boats, and cargo ships have been collected, and the manpower of the entire Fu Han army is as high as 100,000. This number surprised Chen Ming. After winning the Battle of Northern Jiangsu, the violent expansion of the Han army and the abundance of gunpowder made him have the idea of establishing a foothold in the south of the Yangtze River for many nights. But in the end, Chen Ming still chose to return to Huguang, and the original plan was unwavering.

He hooked up with Zhu Yuanzhang's Northern Expedition in the memorial to the Ming Tomb, and spread the news of the Northern Expedition of the army in the coming year, of course, it was intentional, in order to make the Qing army misjudge, confuse the Qing army, and strategically mislead the Qing army.

Although it will take a short time for the army in the south of the Yangtze River to reach Huguang, if the Qing army seriously prepares for the northern expedition of the Han army from the south of the Yangtze River and hoards heavy troops and military supplies in Shandong, it will inevitably affect the deployment of troops in the North China battlefield and reduce the military pressure on the base areas to a certain extent. In this way, before the Fu Han army traced the river to attack Huguang, the base area should also have the spare strength to carry out an attack on Hubei.

Chen Ming will continue to quietly transfer back the troops in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and on the other hand, he will send troops to reinforce Jiujiang and Anqing, and continue to make a look of consolidating the 'strategic place' so that the army can attack with confidence. As a result, ships gathered in Nanjing, and the second battalion of the naval division of Jiujiang should also form an army after the beginning of spring, allowing them to sweep the Hubei River in advance. As long as the Qing army decided that Chen Ming was going to make a major northern expedition, these actions could be fully explained - to consolidate the 'strategic land'.

In Hangzhou Bay, a Chinese-style Tong'an shuttle slowly left the coast. On the bow deck, Luis Paolo Ribeiro looked in the direction of Hangzhou City, his eyes full of reluctance. It was a wealthy city, and even though the war was chaotic and hundreds of people fled the city, the remaining population density of Hangzhou was coveted by Louis.

China is really a huge country, bigger than the Ottoman Empire, richer than the Ottoman Empire, much more populous than the Ottomans. But the Tatar government was also too wary of Western traders. If China can completely open up its coastline, it will be a blessing from God.

In just a few months, Fernandez, who had become thin and deformed, knelt down on the bow of the ship at this moment, carrying the rising sun in the east with his back, and prayed devoutly towards the west. God knew how frightened and desperate he was when he was captured, and of the nine Portuguese soldiers who followed him to the middle of the field, two died in the fighting, and eight were captured, one of whom was seriously wounded and was hit in the abdomen by a stray bullet. The soldiers of the Fu Han army, who had captured them, stabbed Mani Fenda to death on the spot with bayonets without mercy.

The blood splashed on his chest stained the Chinese's trouser legs, and Fernandez still remembers the cold face of the Fu Han soldier, who seemed to have killed not a person, but a chicken.

As a foreigner, Fernández and other seven Portuguese prisoners of war were handed over to the high-ranking officers of their army by the soldiers of the Fu Han Army, and as a result, those barbaric rebels, thinking that they and others knew how many secrets, tortured and interrogated again and again, Fernandez tasted waterboarding for the first time, and for the first time knew what it meant to be a sticker officer, and the terrifying taste made him tremble when he thought about it. Who made him a second lieutenant, the leader of the Portuguese soldiers, and the leader naturally knew more than the petty soldiers. Fernández explained everything about the first time he slept with a woman, and the first time he had an affair with a woman, all of it. Those days were the darkest and most frightening nightmare of his entire twenty-plus years of life.

Then he and his comrades were put into a forced labor camp by the Fu Han army as if they were disposing of garbage, and those Qing soldiers who were captured in the First Battle of Taizhou worked in the hard labor camp to atone for their crimes, and a piece of captured flag soldiers heard that they had all been executed. In the hard labor camps, they were managed by the militia [Lian Yong], who had been treated unfairly by the Tatar government army in the previous war, and they hated the Tatar government army from the bottom of their hearts, so they loyally managed the prisoner of war with the most severe means. There were only seven people in total, Fernández and the others, few and tall, who were forced to do the heaviest work by the prisoners of war in the same team when they worked, and when they ate, they could only eat the leftovers that the Chinese prisoners of war had eaten. Seven Portuguese prisoners of war were sent to the hard labor camps, and by the time they were ransomed, only five half-dead cripples remained.

"They are Satan, the devil, the most cruel of demons. All Chinese, these should be infidels, and the souls after death will fall into the endless abyss, permanent sinking, sinking. They will never be saved, they will ...... forever"

Louis looked at the crazy Fernandez in surprise, "God, is he going crazy?" Could it be that there is still a madman hiding among the people I rescued? (To be continued.) )
