“…… Qin ordered the general Chen Wen, the chief military officer of Dalanshan, to be diligent in the king's affairs and brave in people, and specially ordered him to lead his troops into the guard to fulfill the responsibility of the guard. ”

Into Zhoushan?

Hearing this edict, Chen Wen did not choose to thank him, but stood up by himself under the gaze of everyone. Slapping the dust on his lower legs, Chen Wen stood with his head held high.

"This is a chaotic order, and the minister can't be edicted!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned.

Resisting the decree, for the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty, this was a great achievement in life. Of course, the holy decree that can be used to disobey is generally still the middle decree, and this kind of chaotic false decree without going through the cabinet can be blown for a lifetime.

In the eyes of the scholars and doctors of the Ming Dynasty, the righteous words forced the Son of Heaven to have nothing to say, and could only use the rod to vent his grievances, which was a glorious deed that could be blown for several generations, and even in history there were people who marinated the meat that was beaten down, so that it would not rot and deteriorate, and could be preserved for a long time as evidence of accepting the court staff.

In contrast, for military generals, resisting the decree is a big problem, and with heavy troops in hand, you can resist the decree again......

However, after the Chongzhen Dynasty began to townify the military generals, Zu Dashou, Zuo Liangyu and others no matter what type of holy decree they had, as long as they disobeyed their wishes, they would resist the emperor and the cabinet. In this regard, the Ming court at that time was powerless and had to let it go, and this aggravated the process of feudal townization of military generals.

By the time of the Southern Ming Dynasty, there were more things to resist the decree, and Zuo Liangyu of Chu Town did not mention it, Li Ruixin's old prefect, Huang Degong in the four towns of Jiangbei, a loyal minister who insisted until the last moment of his life, still frequently resisted the decree, not to mention others.

It's just that this kind of thing can generally only be enjoyed by the head of the army, and it is extremely rare for a small army leader like Chen Wen who is subordinate to the civilian officials of the supervising army.

"Furen?"

Because of the stark contrast between that fiasco and the subsequent victory, Wang Jiang developed a strong sense of trust in Chen Wen's strategic vision. It's just that Chen Wen's words are quite unsparing, and while he has some doubts about the significance of entering Zhoushan, he is also afraid that this will cause Chen Wen to deviate from the Lu Jianguo court.

The message in Wang Jiang's eyes Chen Wen knew it at a glance, only to see him shake his head, and then said to Na Qincha: "Those who are ministers should be proud to protect the Son of Heaven. It's just that national affairs are like this, and people should make the best use of their talents. ”

"Zhoushan, the island, if the Tartars attack, the naval battle is the key to determining the victory. This time, the Tartars are bound to do their best, and if Wang Shi wants to win, he will be the enemy outside Zhoushan. If the Tartars were allowed to climb Zhoushan, the hundreds of soldiers would just die in vain. ”

Therefore, the minister thought that instead of using these hundreds of troops to defend against the Tartars on the island, it was better to send troops to contain the Tartars on the southern front. In this way, His Royal Highness the Prison State and the ministers and marshals of Zhoushan can also go all out to meet the main force of the Tartars. I also hope that the angel will return the foolish opinion of the ministers to His Highness. ”

In the battle of Zhoushan in history, the Qing army went straight to Zhoushan with the Eight Banners of Hangzhou Garrison, the Standard Battalion of the Governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, the Standard Battalion of the Admiral of Zhejiang, and the Standard Battalion of the Dinghai General Army, which was the main force; The general standard battalion of Wu Songshui Division went down from the north, and the Jinhua general standard battalion and Taizhou soldiers went north, and besieged Zhoushan on three routes.

The response of the Ming army in Zhoushan was also very simple, with Danghu Hou Ruan Jin to meet the main force of the Qing army, with Dingxi Hou Zhang Mingzhen to intercept the Qing army's army on the southern line, with Zhang Huangyan and Ruan Jun to meet the Qing army on the northern line, and Zhoushan City Defense only left Anyang general Liu Shixun, governor Zhang Mingyang, Zhongzhen general Ma Tailing three battalions and thousands of people to defend bravely.

Such tactics meant that the enemy had to be fended off outside of Zhoushan, and once the Qing army captured Zhoushan, the defeat of the Ming army was only a matter of time. The main reason why this is the case is mainly because Ruan Jin, Marquis of Danghu, has almost never been defeated in the face of the Manchu Qing Dynasty's various sailors in Jiangnan over the years, and has been able to win more with less every time, and there has even been a phenomenon that the Qing army's sailors have fled when they heard the name of Ruan Jin.

In this way, with Ruan Jin's prestige and his ability to far surpass the Qing army in naval warfare, it is almost a perfect strategy.

However, who would have imagined that when the Ming army defeated the Qing army on both the north and south fronts, Ruan Jin would be accidentally injured and overboard in the most critical battle of Hengshuiyang and captured by the Qing army?

Lu Jianguo was not an assertive person, but he trusted Zhang Mingzhen and Ruan Jin more militarily, and Zhang Mingzhen and Wang Yi were not on good terms, so it was naturally impossible to believe the prophecy that Chen Wen, Wang Yi's general, guessed that "Ruan Jin was accidentally injured and captured in battle". Even if there is no relationship with Wang Yi, from the perspective of the monarchs and ministers of the court of Lu Jianguo, it is impossible to believe that Ruan Jin will lose to the Qing army's sailors, especially when the strength of the two sailors in that battle is almost the same.

I know history!

This is a fact, but it is impossible for Chen Wen to use this reason to convince the monarch and ministers of Lu Jianguo, because no one would believe such a god-like prophecy in such a military matter. Just as Chen Wen was unable to convince Wang Yi with this reason, even if he had only recently achieved a great victory in the history of the Lu Jian Dynasty, it would be of no avail.

The Battle of Zhoushan is no longer likely to be reversed, so for Chen Wen, the best solution is to occupy a base as soon as possible, and only in this way can the history of Zhejiang's anti-Qing movement be rewritten.

Among them, in fact, Chen Wen's subconscious still hides a distrust, a distrust of whether other Ming troops can cooperate with the battle, and also a distrust of the internal secrecy ability of the Lu Jian Dynasty. After all, in the historical materials of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in later generations, there were many secret songs with Yan My Gong during this period, and even Ruan Jin, the Marquis of Danghu, was once shaken.

Chen Wen didn't know if it was a lie concocted by Yan My Gong to highlight his sense of existence, but since the Battle of Siming Lake was excluded, this suspicion of other Ming forces has always accompanied him. Just like his previous interactions with the generals of Tiantai Mountain, it is also an attitude of equal trading. As for the word cooperation, at least Chen Wen has never been able to mention this idea.

After listening to Chen Wen's explanation, the anger of the two Qincha eased slightly, and the one who looked older at the head didn't say anything, but the younger one asked Chen Wen: "Chen Shuai has so much confidence in attacking thieves on land?" ”

If Chen Wen and the Lu Jianguo court completely tore their faces, it would most likely mean a split or even cannibalism among the Ming army in Tiantai Mountain, which was the last thing he wanted to see. Now that Qin Cha had relented, a trace of contempt for the Qing army immediately appeared on Chen Wen's face.

"This question, the last general can accompany the angel to interrogate Li Rong's house, and he has the most profound feelings about it."

Seeing that Chen Wen's expression did not seem to be fake, the Qin Cha led by him got off the donkey. "In this case, the envoy should report Chen Shuai's thoughts to His Royal Highness, and the imperial court will make a judgment. During this period, the envoy also had an errand for the various departments of Tiantai Mountain, and he needed to linger here for more than a month, and asked Governor Wang and Chen Shuai to arrange it. ”

"As it should be."

Although I don't understand that these two Qincha didn't even come up with a question about the righteousness of the loyal monarch about the matter of resisting the decree, but since the other party has already acquiesced, Chen Wen has no need to find himself that uncomfortable.

In the following month, the Nantang battalion began the second phase of training, and the two chincha were separated. The older one went to inspect and comfort the rebels; The younger ones stayed in the old camp, but at the beginning they went to the nearby camps of Yu Guowang, Jintang and the rear camp of Dalanshan, and then stayed in the temporary camp of the old camp in Dalanshan to observe the training of the Nantang camp.

It wasn't until more than a month later, after comforting the rebels from all walks of life, that the two messengers had a secret conversation with Chen Wen, Wang Jiang and Yu Guowang, and then left Tiantai Mountain and returned to Zhoushan.

Since Chen Wen knew that these two Qincha were Li Wenzhong's descendants, he had a trace of defense from the bottom of his heart, but this defensive emotion based on the weakness of being a thief seemed a little aimless in front of these two Qincha.

During the period when these two Qincha were in Tiantai Mountain, they did not put on the shelf that their ancestors were once the benefactors of Chen Wen's ancestors, nor did they mention the "Wujing Testament" mentioned many times by Chen Wen when he was in Dalan Mountain, and they didn't even use this identity to climb any friendships, as if they didn't know that there was such a thing.

At the same time, the exchanges between them and Chen Wen were more about the heroic military and political and military affairs of Lu Jianguo as the monarch, as well as the importance that the civil official group within the court of Lu Jianguo attached to Chen Wen. As for other things, they are rarely mentioned, and even Zhang Mingzhen, Ruan Jin and other lords are not mentioned very often. Chen Wen vaguely felt something, but neither of the two sides pierced the last layer of window paper.

The front foot saw off the Qin Cha of Lu Jianguo, and the back foot Chen Wen and Wang Jiang ushered in another messenger. The person who came was from Chen Tianshu's Pinggang Ming Army, but to be precise, it was a subordinate of Chen Guobao, a close confidant of Liu Yiming, the commander of the left and right battalions of the Ming Army in Dalanshan.

Originally, according to Chen Tianshu's last order, Chen Guobao and the rest of Chen Tianshu were ready to leave for Tiantai Mountain to join Yu Guowang, but the envoy sent in advance arrived at Yu Guowang to know that the rest of the Ming army in Dalanshan was nearby, so they rushed over.

Since the remnants of the Pinggang Ming Army and the left and right battalions of Dalanshan lost contact with the old camp of Dalanshan after the Battle of Siming Lake, the people who came from that battle began to talk until the news of Chen Tianshu's death on the night of the third day of the third month of March. In this regard, Wang Jiang said that he would definitely show Chen Tianshu's long-term exploits to Lu Jianguo, and strive for a better nickname for him.

After Chen Tianshu's funeral was completed, the Ming army of Hiraoka was quickly divided into two factions. Some officers thought that they should follow Chen Tianshu's last order and go south to Tiantai Mountain with the remnants of the left and right battalions of the Ming army in Dalanshan; The other part said that most of the people in the Pinggang and Dongshan areas occupied by the Ming army in Pinggang were unwilling to leave, and they should stay and continue to protect the people from the ravages of the Qing army.

Because of the irreconcilable contradictions, the two sides were tense for a time, but it was only because of their equal strength that they finally took a step back and reluctantly reached a compromise -- abiding by the basic principle of consciously and voluntarily, those who are willing to stay can stay, those who are unwilling to stay can also leave, the grain, grass and military resources are divided equally, and the two sides do not interfere with each other. And this envoy was sent by the part of the Ming army that chose to leave to explore the way.

After learning that the military dependents of the left and right battalions who remained in the old camp moved here with the old battalion, this envoy asked to return to the team on behalf of Chen Guobao. In this regard, Wang Jiang expressed a warm welcome, but Chen Wen seemed much more indifferent.

A few months ago, the rear battalion of the Ming Army in Dalanshan also returned to the team in this way, but as soon as its commander Mao Mingshan left, the remaining officers were completely out of control. Ignoring Mao Mingshan's orders, military discipline has begun to loosen up a lot in the past month, and there has even been a disturbance of the people that has never been seen in the history of the Ming Army in Dalanshan.

It was only because of the ancestral system that the size was equal to the size of the system, Chen Wen did not have sufficient reasons to punish him severely, and in the end, Wang Jiang, as the civilian official of the supervising army, pulled out the soldiers who committed the crime and admonished them, and made some compensation to the people, and the matter was declared over.

Wang Jiang's handling method is very in line with his character, but it is not recognized by Chen Wen. In his opinion, if Wang Yi is still there, or if it is Zhang Huangyan who is leading the army, this criminal soldier will have only a dead end, because only in this way can it be possible to curb the recurrence of the incident of the army harassing the people.

Historically, Wang Jiang and Shen Tiaolun once raised troops again in Siming Mountain during the recovery of Zhoushan by Zhang Mingzhen and Chen Liuyu, but they were completely wiped out by the Qing army after only holding out for half a year. A large part of the reason for this is that Wang and Shen could not control the army, and the soldiers stole and plundered the people and lost the hearts of the people, so that they could not gather greater strength to deal with the Qing army like Wang Yishi.

Just like what Huang Zongxi said, in the tenth year of Yongli, the Ming army of Dalanshan revived, but it was like "his father killed people to take revenge, and his son robbed and lost his inheritance", so how can he be undefeated?

After the incident that the rear camp was still disturbing the people with military salaries, Chen Wen began to regret that he did not take it under his command at the beginning, but it had come to this point, and it could only be like this. During this period, the remnants of the left and right battalions also asked to return to the team, and there were actually some Hiraoka Ming troops with them, which further deepened the worry in Chen Wen's heart.
