Chapter 36: Righteousness
Since the progress of the state is relatively smooth, Chen Wen has no need to forcibly take the country for the time being. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Info sent the messenger away, and the next day he returned to Quzhou.
The Ming army withdrew and returned to Quzhou, but the Qing army in Jiangshan County, let alone pursue, did not do even the "gift", and it seemed that they still suspected that this was a trick of the Ming army.
It's just that, according to the report of the Shuiying that finally set off and returned, the earth-shattering joy on the head of the city, Chen Wen had already made up a report with words such as "The Ministry of Labor and the Jinhua Thieves fought eighteen, the small battle was thirty-six, and the rebel Chen Wen fled in embarrassment".
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
"On October 24 of the ninth year of Shunzhi, the rebel Chen Wen personally raised more than 20,000 thieves to go south......
When the thieves and the thieves were raining arrows, they were not afraid of death, and the last general and the superintendent would shout to report to the emperor, and the words of saving the people of Li personally led the soldiers to fight a bloody battle with the thieves......
On the third day, the thieves attacked more and more fiercely, the last general and the Jiujiang general Yang Jie, the Fujian left army Wang Zhigang agreed, when the thieves attacked the city very urgently, Wang Zongbing highlighted the banner, Yang Zongbing from the flank and back, the thieves were in chaos, and then they were defeated.
ā¦ā¦ Thieves are cunning. By the fourth day of November, with the help of General Yang and Wang, the staff and Jinhua thieves fought eighteen battles and thirty-six small battles, and the rebel thief Chen Wen lost his troops and fled in embarrassment. However, the thieves have a system of recovering the corpse and dividing the property, so there are only five out of ninety beheadings, which is a pity. ā
This was the first time since Chen Wen raised his army that the Qing army forced Chen Wen to retreat with its own strength. For this report, Zhang Guoxun specially found a local old master to help polish it, but the old master seems to have some objections to the content of the report.
"The owner, the battle has only been ten days, is this big battle eighteen, and the small battle thirty-six is a bit too much?"
Hearing this, Zhang Guoxun thought about it, and it seemed that it was indeed a bit too much.
"Then change it to the big war twelve, the small war twenty-four."
Well, I have to talk to Yang Jie and Wang Zhigang so as not to be too different. But no matter what, the reward must be indispensable, and maybe a general soldier who is in charge of several prefectures like Ma Jinbao's dead ghost may not be able to say.
"Kill pigs and sheep, reward the whole army!"
Amid the cheers inside and outside Jiangshan County, Wang Sheng had already vaguely felt the ambitions of those senior officers, including Yang Jie, Wang Zhigang and Zhang Guoxun.
In the past year, Tian Xiong, the governor of Zhejiang, twice followed the Jin Lidun army under the fortified city, the Jinhua general soldier Ma Jinbao of the military affairs of the four prefectures was killed and wiped out, and Liu Guangbi, the governor of Jiangxi, suffered a fiasco and lost his troops, and Yang Minggao, the governor of Fujian, was defeated in Xiaoyingling first, and then Zheng Chenggong could not be helped.
These highest-ranking Manchu officers in Zhejiang, Fujian, and Jiangxi all suffered defeats, but they were able to "repel the arrogant" Chen Wen against the background of such a fiasco. Even the staff general Li Xun, who had a dispute with him a few days ago, seemed to have begun to covet the official position of deputy general of the Supervisory Battalion.
However, compared to these people, Wang Sheng is far less optimistic than them. The reason why the Ming army withdrew was not so much that the Qing army was properly defended, but that it was difficult to go further with the current scale of the Ming army. But if you wait a few more months, when Chen Wen's next batch of recruits is completed, let alone them, I am afraid that it is unlikely that Jiangshan County will be able to defend this Jiangshan County even if Zhejiang's standards are transferred to guard it.
Chen Wen will train the next wave of recruits, not to mention a few months, and the time should be enough. "Zhang Dashuai, since you don't listen to good words, then don't blame the lowly and unwilling to share weal and woe with you."
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
Although the army returned to Quzhou in vain, there were quite a few officials, gentry and businessmen who came out to greet them. These people are not here to see the jokes of the Ming army, the Longyou merchant gang has a close relationship with the people of Chuzhou, these days the Ming army's partial division in the state of the invasion has already spread to the city, if you can open up Wenzhou, then the trade route from northern Fujian to Quzhou is reopened, at this moment, if you don't come to mix the face, let the government wear small shoes in the future and can't complain about others.
In fact, even if you want to see it, you can't see it at all, the army has returned, and the army has been cleaned up, and it doesn't look like it has been frustrated at all. Chen Wence rode in front of the army, and looked at the crowd from afar, among the people who greeted him, the patriarch of the Confucian family's southern sect, Kong Zhenshu, and the hereditary doctor of the Five Classics of the Manchu Dynasty, Kong Yanzhen.
"How dare you have the old patriarch Lao and the doctor of the Five Classics to greet you in person."
The status of the Kong family is very special, and even if they don't come, no one dares to say no. But for the Southern Sect of the Confucian Family, Chen Wen had given Kong Yanzhen three days before, but the Confucian family did not discuss the reason, so the matter of asking Kong Yanzhen to inherit the Doctor of the Five Classics of the Hanlin Academy was delayed.
For treating Chen Wen slowly, the Kong family didn't believe that he could do anything with the descendants of the saints. In fact, these days, the Confucian family Nanzong has always been thinking about this matter, but they have previously invited the hereditary official position of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, if Quzhou once returned to the hands of the Ming army, they will switch to the Ming court, then it will not become the Qing Dynasty will descend to the Qing Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty will return to the Ming Dynasty.
The possibility of the Qing army coming back still exists, if it is returned to the Ming court at this moment, then how should the Qing army kill Quzhou, and how should they deal with themselves.
These are indeed difficult choices for the Southern Sect of the Confucian family, but Chen Wen's questioning is indeed deafening, the ancestor of the Southern Sect, Kong Duanyou, can leave Qufu and go south to Quzhou when the Jin people go south, and Kong Zhu also did not hesitate to give up the title of Yansheng Duke when Kublai Khan presented the descendants of Confucius. But now, they have accepted the gift of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and even took the initiative to ask for it.
Zi said: "Microtube, I was sent to the left." ā
Such an act not only violates the teachings of Confucius, but also how to be worthy of the ancestors and ancestors under the nine springs!
In the past ten days, the Kong family has negotiated many times and has been carefully considered. In particular, seeing the Ming army restore the basic order of the city through a simple soup kitchen, and with the help of tax-free business travel, the people have a livelihood and the vitality of the city can be restored, which is all the credit of Chen Wen and the Ming army and staff under his command.
Coupled with a series of news that came these days that the Ming army lightly took the prefecture, it also made the Confucian family and the merchants of Quzhou see greater hope, and the Ming army was able to continue to support in southwest Zhejiang, and even the Ming court could prosper perhaps no longer be wishful thinking. So the two of them came to greet them in person today, which can be regarded as returning to serve the Ming court.
"Guan Ziyun, he knows etiquette when he is full of food, and he knows honor and disgrace when he has enough food and clothing. The discipline of the Wang division army is strict, and the soldiers did not hurt the people in the slightest, even the army of the king of Song and the army of Qi Shaobao of this dynasty is just like this. Now it can revive Quzhou, which was tragically poisoned by Chen Jin, and Linhaibo can be said to have won the teachings of Guanzi. The Kong clan has lived in Quzhou for a long time, and has received a lot of kindness from the gentry and the people. (To be continued.) )
