Zhou Jingting was Chen Wen's confidential clerk and a well-known scholar, and he was very respected in this illiterate military camp. And in the final analysis, he is still Chen Wen's staff and a subordinate, and if he doesn't report something, he urges Chen Wen to return to the Chinese army's big tent quickly, which seems a little abnormal, at least it is very different from Zhou Jingting's polite appearance on weekdays. When he returned to the big tent of the Chinese army, some doubts in Chen Wen's mind were immediately dispelled by greater incomprehension.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, except for Zhou Jingting, the other staff and staff officers had already dispersed, but a scholar wearing a Confucian robe and a little thin stood on the spot. But if you look closely, although the scholar said that he had drawn the costume, Chen Wen could still tell at a glance that the skin hidden under the fat powder was very fair, his facial features were also very exquisite, and his eyebrows seemed to be a little similar to Zhou Jingting.

And the most important thing is that although this person is wearing a man's clothes, he is clearly a woman, and his appearance should not be low if nothing else.

brought the woman into the barracks, and also brought it to his Chinese army tent, what does Zhou Jingting mean by this?

At this time, it seemed that he felt Chen Wen's question, or he couldn't bear it anymore, Zhou Jingting coughed, and then introduced to Chen Wen: "Dashuai, this is the sister." ”

Hearing Zhou Jingting's faint displeasure, Chen Wen also realized that his behavior of staring directly at the little woman in front of him was very rude, so he immediately withdrew his gaze and saluted the little sister of the Zhou family again. It's just that Chen Wen, who doesn't know the truth, seems to be a little too unhurried, which makes Zhou Jingting a little impatient.

After confirming that there was no one else near the big tent, Zhou Jingting immediately whispered to Chen Wen: "Dashuai, Cao Conglong put Sun Zhifu under house arrest in Fucheng, and even took all the important places in Fucheng through Luo Chengyan's gang, even Tangxi County is no exception. ”

"Dashuai, the fundamental place of the army is no longer in the hands of Wang Shi!"

Chen Wendeng was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted again, the whole person was immediately ignited by anger.

Infighting, this is naked infighting!

Before leaving, he and Cao Conglong had agreed that after taking Quzhou, he would return to the east and enter Taizhou, although he was indeed not very concerned about this plan, but he never deliberately delayed the progress of recovering Quzhou, but just took advantage of the situation. If Quzhou can really be recovered as soon as possible, in fact, it is not a useless strategy to enter Taizhou east to obtain access to the sea.

But who knows that he took Long You with the front foot, and then surrounded Chen Jin in the Quzhou capital city, and Cao Conglong with the back foot seized power by force in his old nest, if you think about it carefully, it is even likely that Cao Conglong has decided to do so before he has sent troops, otherwise how could he act so quickly.

Next, Zhou Jingting signaled to the little sister of the Zhou family, a witness of the rebellion, to explain the ins and outs of the matter to Chen Wen clearly, which is not only the little sister of the Zhou family who has seen it herself, but also the details that Ni Liangxu intentionally or unintentionally revealed outside Longyou County a few days ago.

Listening to the stark contrast of the cruel reality mixed with the woman's soft voice, the anger in Chen Wen's heart had begun to feel like a substance, but in this anger, a trace of weakness or silence wrapped around him, gradually tightened, and even his breathing began to become more and more difficult.

All along, with the words he saw in forums and novels, Chen Wen has a certain degree of understanding of the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

The army fought abroad, and after several bloody battles, it finally overwhelmed the Qing army in front of it, and only the last blow was needed to turn the tables, but at this moment, someone would always stab in the back, or even stab several times in a row, until the whole situation was completely ruined. This kind of thing is not uncommon in the Southern Ming Dynasty, and it can even be said that almost every time there is a chance to turn the tables, someone will always jump out to do so, among which He Tengjiao, the civilian supervisor of the Huguang Supervision Army, who was highly praised in later generations, was the most famous infighting dog in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties.

Hongguang was subject to Zuo Liangyu and did nothing; During the Longwu period, the loyal battalion was squeezed out, and the stragglers were recruited as descendants to cause a greater burden on the people, and there was no ability to general, which led to the warlord division of Liu Chengyin and others, and when the Qing army entered Fujian, he was even more yang Fengyin and did not go to rescue Emperor Longwu; The Yongli Dynasty counterattacked Hunan, and when the victory was complete, he instigated Hao Shaoqi to sneak attack Chen Youlong's Ming army to give the Qing army a chance to breathe, and transferred away the loyal battalion that besieged Changsha in order to fight for merit, completely ruining the strategy of recovering Hunan and aiding Jiangxi, and even single-handedly led to him being captured and killed by the Qing army, and even after his death, his comrades also threw the black pot that corrupted the situation on the body of Du Yinxi, which led to the depressed death of the famous minister who had always tried his best to save his life on the Huguang battlefield.

It is precisely because there is such an example of a civilian official supervising the army in the past, Chen Wen is not unwary of Cao Conglong who was ordered, but he asked Zhang Jun to send someone to monitor and get the result that Cao Conglong himself made a statement after he went out to win over the civil and military forces of Dongyang, Yiwu, Pujiang and the northern garrison, and the other is the matter of recruiting the Baitou Army of Anluo Chengyan.

But he never thought that Cao Conglong had no intention of ending up in person, but instead co-opted allies among the civil officials of the Dalanshan family, and used the power of allies to connect more people to conspire with him, but he concealed Chen Wen's ears and eyes. If you think of Cao Conglong's good news to him not long ago after recruiting the Baitou Army of Anluo Chengyan, and hoping that Chen Wen can send someone to help him train this Fubiao battalion, it is obvious that he still underestimated this soldier who does not know about military affairs.

In fact, if Chen Wen could understand more about the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, he would probably pay more attention to Cao Conglong.

Historically, after Lu Jianguo changed his name to Yongli as the orthodoxy of the Emperor Ming, Cao Conglong joined the Zheng group and became a hereditary confidant of Zheng Chenggong's younger brother Zheng. In the sixteenth year of Yongli, Zheng Chenggong died in Taiwan, and Cao Conglong and three other cronies of Zheng hereditary instigated Zheng hereditary and Zheng Chenggong's son Zheng Jing to compete for the title of general of Yanping County, and bribed several major Taiwanese garrison generals.

After Zheng hereditarily established himself as the queen of Yanping County, Zheng Jing, who received the news, personally led a large army from Xiamen, and soon quelled this internal strife for the purpose of fighting for power. But in the subsequent retaliation action, not only the four Zheng hereditary cronies, including Cao Conglong, and the Taiwanese garrison generals who fell to Zheng hereditary, but even the God of Wealth of the Zheng Group in the Zheng Chenggong era, Zheng Chenggong's cousin Zheng Tai was not spared, which eventually led to the surrender of a large number of Ming troops in Jinxia to the Manchu Qing for fear of retaliation, and the army that Zheng Chenggong had worked so hard to build began to fall apart, and Zheng Jing could only shrink in a corner of Taiwan, and there was no possibility of a solo northern expedition like Zheng Chenggong.

Zheng Jing is very responsible for the mishandling of this matter, but as the initiators of this Zheng family's infighting, Zheng Shiji, Cao Conglong and others are also to blame.

It's a pity that Chen Wen doesn't know much about the Zheng clan infighting ten years later, and his knowledge of Cao Conglong is only that he knows that this person's name is Yunlin, and he is the military servant of the Lu Jian Dynasty, and it is also after Cao Conglong came to Jinhua Mansion. He has always relied on an understanding of the general direction of the situation, as history begins to take a different path, and he does not know much about the details, which makes a sense of powerlessness begin to come to his heart.

However, there is no time to sigh now!

Most of Chen Wen's corporal soldiers came from Jinhua Mansion, and the lair was occupied, and no matter how you look at it, there is only a dead end in the city. If you want to get out of the predicament, you must return to the division to quell the rebellion, but the premise of counterinsurgency is to try to return to the division. At this moment, the Qing army was divided in the area of Quzhou Fucheng and Jiangshan County, once the withdrawal was discovered, it is likely that there would be two Qing armies converging to pursue the retreating Ming army.

What to do? (To be continued.) )
