is not as good as Fu Menghu, who inspected the provinces under his jurisdiction, Liu Yingke, the governor of Taizhou, is a local minister. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoBetween Taizhou and Jinhua is a group of mountains, which is not conducive to the attack of the army, since Chen Wen rose in the southwest of Zhejiang, only Cao Conglong fought the idea of attacking the army, and the result was that Cao Conglong's rebellion was suppressed, and the first warehouse was burned down by Ma Xin, and the gains outweighed the losses.

The terrain is like this, and it is precisely because of the failure of Cao Conglong's rebellion that Liu Yingke has always felt that the success rate of attacking Jinhua from Taizhou or the Ming army from Jinhua to Taizhou is not high, so compared with military affairs, he pays more attention to achieving some achievements in literary affairs to facilitate promotion, such as moving to build the Guangwen Temple.

The word Guangwen refers to Zheng Qian, a calligrapher, painter, writer and poet in the Tang Dynasty, who was a figure in the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, and was called "Zheng Qian's Three Uniques" by Tang Xuanzong because of his "poetry, calligraphy, and painting". Zheng Qian was a doctor of Guangwen Hall in his early years, and later because of the trap of An Lushan, he was demoted to Taizhou Sihu to join the army, and after his death, there was a Guangwen Temple originally named Hucao Temple.

Liu Yingke had planned to move this ancestral hall commemorating the famous literati of the Tang Dynasty to Dagu Mountain in the city to prevent it from being eroded by the flooding of the Lingjiang River, and even contacted the local gentry and wealthy families to participate in the grand event. However, the four provincial capitals failed, and Taizhou's warehousing also cost a lot, and he planned to accumulate some by being busy, so as to get things done, but who knew that Hong Chengchou ordered the expansion of the army, and the money and grain were solved by the local government first, and suddenly there was a bottomless pit.

These days, Liu Yingke is bothered by this matter, who knows that Ma Xin invited them all over within a few days of coming back, and opened his mouth that the Zhejiang bandit Chen Wen and the Haikou Zheng Chenggong conspired with Taizhou, and even the prestigious Nantang battalion of the Zhejiang Ming Army had already set off, and as soon as he heard this, he was so frightened that he sat down on the chair.

Coincidentally, not only Liu Yingke, at this moment, as soon as they heard that the Nantang Battalion was set off as a pioneer, all the civil officials were frightened.

Chen Wen, the owner of this not very conspicuous name, but his hands are stained with the blood of the Manchu high-ranking officials and marshals, Ma Jinbao, the president of the southern front during the siege of Zhoushan the year before last, Chen Jin, the previous governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, and the leader of the Han military banner when it was first built, inlaid with red flags and solid mountains and real stone pillars, are all in this case. As for those officers who are adjutant generals, staff generals, guerrillas, garrisons, and the like, they no longer even have the qualifications to be mentioned.

And now, it's not just Chen Wen who came, but also Zheng Chenggong, the big sea Kou in Fujian, one by land and the other by water, Taizhou Wenwu became a turtle in an urn when he boarded, and he didn't even have a place to run!

According to the rules of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the loss of the city not only had to be held accountable by the military generals, but also the civil officials could not escape their responsibilities. Chen Wen has been in turmoil in the southwest of Zhejiang in the past two years, and the civil officials of the captured counties have almost all been punished by the Manchu court without exception, that is, Li Zhifang and Ji Zhenyi, who were protected by Chen Jin, are now also imprisoned for crimes, and one has taken the fame and ordered to study and think about it behind closed doors, which is said to be because the money is in place. Even if Chen Wen is not mentioned, when Quzhou Jiangshan County fell, Qian Zhiyu, the first Jinqu sub-inspector, was demoted and called, which is also a clear proof.

Of course, over the years, there have also been commendations for the fall of places by the Ming army. For example, when Wang Yi captured Shangyu County for the first time, Liu Zhangzhi, the official of the seal, was praised by the Manchu court, as for the reason, it was because he was killed in the city by the Ming army......

It's a pity that for the civil officials present at the moment, they no longer have the right to choose.

"Ma Xin, keep calling the Zhejiang bandit Chen Wen the Marquis of Anyuan, and the Haikou Zheng Chenggong as the Duke of Zhangguo, do you want to betray the imperial court?!"

None of the civil officials here are stupid, and the title of Ma Xin is very problematic, and what it means can be imagined. At this moment, the window paper was pierced by Liu Xisheng, the lowest-level Linhai County Cheng present, and everyone's faces were not just as simple as losing their color, but there was only a sweat like a stream and an unconscious trembling between their dead and dilapidated appearance and the dead body in the coffin.

"Liu Xiancheng is really a smart person, and Ben Shuai doesn't say anything like knowing the times as Junjie, everyone and sit here, wait for Nantang Camp to arrive, return to the Ming Dynasty, observe the festival for the Tartars, or go back to the hometown to live in seclusion, at your own convenience."

"Shameless wretch! The court granted you the position of the head town, the grace is as deep as the sea, you don't care about the righteousness of the monarch and the minister, don't want to repay the emperor's kindness, attach the rebel thief, really have no king and no father, the rebellious minister and thief! ”

Liu Xisheng's scolding startled everyone when he boarded, but when Ma Xin heard this, he sneered: "The righteousness of the monarch and the minister can also be compared with the defense of Yixia?" I see that you have read the books of the sages for nothing. ”

Because Ma Xin mentioned that it was a confidential matter when they met, their respective servants withdrew early, and there were only six people in the big tent at the moment, including Ma Xin, Fu Menghu, Liu Yingke, Li Yisheng, Xu Yu and Liu Xisheng. It seems that Ma Xin's strength is weak, but this is the camp of the Taizhou Green Camp, since Ma Xin intends to do it, their servants outside must have been controlled. In addition, Ma Xinai is a general, and he has always had a reputation for martial arts, and a group of powerless civil officials have been shocked by the previous news, so how can they have any other thoughts.

As soon as Ma Xin's words came out, everyone present was shocked, and their bodies couldn't help but tremble, as if they had been electrocuted by something. Only Liu Xisheng, seeing that the words could not arouse the meaning of the same enemy, shouted "I fought with you" in anger, and rushed forward.

With a "bang", Liu Xisheng, who rushed to Ma Xin's approach, flew back upside down and fell heavily to the ground. At this time, Ma Xin stood up, pulled out the sword at his waist, rushed forward in three steps and two steps, and cut off Liu Xisheng's head with a sword, leaving only the aftermath of "Fulfill you" still surrounds the ears of everyone in the tent.

As soon as there was movement in the tent, Ma Xin's personal soldiers rushed in and dragged Liu Xisheng's body out. Ma Xin put away the saber and looked back, but he was dumbfounded, and Xu Yu, the magistrate of Linhai County, covered his mouth and nose with both hands, his eyes widened, staring at the pool of blood in the big tent, trembling so much that he could hardly help himself.

"If you cooperate, you won't end up like Liu Xisheng. I've known each other for many years, and Ben Shuai knows that you are all smart people, and you won't embarrass me Ma Xin anymore, right? ”

Half an hour later, Ma Xin's four soldiers each left the camp with a letter. Three of them left the city directly, heading to the west, east, and south respectively, and the last one did not leave the city, but went to another military camp in the city, where a garrison was stationed under the direct jurisdiction of Fu Menghu.

The establishment of the military garrison is a garrison of 200 soldiers, and the Chinese army garrison is called Zheng Zhiwen, which has the same name and surname as a playwright in the Jiajing and Wanli periods. This person has been here for a long time, and he also has a reputation for being a good shooter in the army. And now, his pacesetter is also the only Qing army in Fucheng that is not under Ma Xin's command.

In the original history, Ma Xin led his troops anyway, and he had already lured Zheng Zhiwen, but he was shot by an arrow, fled back to the headquarters camp, and escaped from Fucheng with his subordinates, resulting in Ma Xin failing to coerce more Qing troops anyway. This time, because Chen Wen had a great plan, it was inevitable that there would be complications, so Ma Xin did not recruit him together with these civil officials, but waited for Fu Menghu, the top boss, to summon him justifiably.

As soon as Fu Menghu's order arrived, Zheng Zhiwen did not doubt that he was there, so he rushed to Ma Xin's camp to "praise military affairs", but he just stayed in the barracks, but he always felt that something was wrong.

This doubt always lingered in Zheng Zhiwen's heart, until he entered the big tent, looked at the dead faces of the four civil officials in the tent, and then looked at the blood stains on the ground that had not yet coagulated, everything was self-evident.

"Zheng Shoubei, the Marquis of Anyuan in Zhejiang, and the Duke of Zhangguo in Fujian have sent a large army to attack Taizhou, and it will be soon. In order to protect the local people, Ben Shuai and all the Taizhou parents present here have discussed their plans to raise the Taizhou capital to return to the Ming Dynasty. ”

Glancing at Fu Menghu, Zheng Zhiwen swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then replied respectfully: "Humblely obey the orders of Ma Shuai and the military constitution." ”

"Good."

With that, Ma Xin gave a color to a faceless officer, and asked this person to follow one of his cronies to take the army and Zheng Zhiwen to receive the military and the Daobiao camp.

Zheng Zhiwen is not Ma Xin's cronies, and even the two did not even have a subordinate relationship before this, and at this moment, Ma Xin sent someone to monitor him and return to the station together, which is naturally what it should be.

There are more than 200 people in the Daobiao battalion, and after eating the empty salary, there are more than 100 people left, this time Ma Xin's cronies and officers have more than 200 soldiers, and Zheng Zhiwen has this garrison in hand, although it is not yet a lion fighting rabbit, but Ma Xin is not sure enough to wrap up all the Qing troops in the city, so just in case, he still chose to solve Zheng Zhiwen's Daobiao battalion first, and remove the variables that are most likely to threaten the plan.

Along the way, Ma Xin's cronies were tense at first, but Zheng Zhiwen was still chatting with him, although no one mentioned what had just happened, but they were also on guard, and Zheng Zhiwen's flattery still made this cronie officer let down some vigilance.

The two barracks were on both sides of the city, passing through the city, and soon they were approaching the camp of the Daobiao camp, and they could even vaguely see the guards guarding the gate dozing there like kowtow worms.

"This is the case, the elder brother will be of great use to Ma Shuai, even the one in the north must also have a heart of love, and when the time comes, don't forget the younger brother."

"Zheng Shoubei said with a smile, we are just Ma Shuai's generals, Your Excellency has the sole lead, and the word reuse should be on Your Excellency first."

The two exchanged these senseless compliments as usual, but at this moment, Zheng Zhiwen's face changed, he looked behind the cronies officer, and then shouted.

"Mr. Ma, why are you here?!"

Not only the cronies, but almost everyone turned their necks to look there, but they saw nothing but the mouth of the alley in the black hole. However, when they turned around again, what they saw was Zheng Zhiwen's legs clamping the horse's belly, and with a whip, the war horse under his crotch rushed out like a sharp arrow off the string.

"Zheng Zhiwen ran away!"

Before the words fell, I saw that Zheng Zhiwen twisted the wolf's waist, lightly stretched the ape arm, and had a bow in his hand, and the cronies of the officer who aimed at Ma Xin shot an arrow.

"Betraying the court is a dead end!"

………………

It was late at night, and there were only two or three hours left before Nantang Ying committed suicide in Xianju County.

Aside from the one who went to recruit Zheng Zhiwen, Ma Xin's other three personal soldiers, one of whom headed west, rushed to Xianju County to inform the local defenders of the matter anyway, in case it caused any unnecessary trouble; The two to the east and the south walked together until they left the city and went down the river through the pre-arranged boats, until one of them got off the boat near the county town of Huangyan and turned south, while the other continued to take the boat all the way down Lingxi to the east, all the way to the Acropolis of the Haimen Guard.

Haimenwei, founded in the Hongwu period, is the coastal guard of Xinguo Gongtang and the preparation of the construction. The perimeter of the acropolis is three miles, the gate is five, when Jiajing resisted the Japanese, it was the base of the Qijia army and the water division of the Songmen guard, and now it is the station of the Taizhou water division of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

Taizhou Naval Division, if explained from the name, should be the Qing Army Naval Division responsible for Taizhou's coastal vigilance and cruise. But in fact, the task of this Taizhou sailor is far more than this explanation.

Before the Battle of Zhoushan, the main force of the Zhejiang Ming Army was located in the Zhoushan Islands, and the Taizhou Naval Division was not only responsible for the coastal areas of Taizhou and Wenzhou, but also assisted in the defense of Ningbo Mansion with the Dinghai General Battalion and the Ningbo Green Battalion; After the Battle of Zhoushan, the remnants of the Ming army moved south to Fujian, while Chen Wen had not yet officially risen in western Zhejiang, and his troops only undertook the coastal defense of Taizhou and Wenzhou. When Chen Wen became stronger and stronger in western Zhejiang, Hong Chengchou decided to forcibly break through with the Qiantang Naval Division and the Eight Banners of the Han Army, so he transferred some ships from the Taizhou Naval Division to assist, and did not flee back to Hangzhou until Shi Tingzhu and Liu Zhiyuan were defeated.

There are 3,000 sailors in Taizhou, which are divided into three battalions: the middle of the sea, the left of the sea, and the right of the sea. The Haizuo Battalion has always been stationed at the key coastal points of Taizhou, while the Haiyou Battalion is responsible for the defense of Wenzhou.

The distance between the two places was only fifty or sixty miles, and it was not easy to walk, but Ma Xin's personal soldiers went down the river and soon arrived at the Acropolis of Haimen.

The sky was not bright, but Ma Xin's own soldiers had an emergency military situation, and the Qing army defending the city had to hang him with hanging baskets. After entering the original Haimen Guard Command Envoy Yamen, and now the Taizhou Navy Division Chief Soldier Yamen, the personal soldiers handed over the personal collection of emergency military information to the hands of the Navy Division Commander-in-Chief.

Chen Wen and Zheng Chenggong are the most fierce commanders of the Ming army in the four southeastern provinces, and now the two have joined forces to attack Taizhou, this news really frightened the general soldiers of the Taizhou Naval Division. The letter was jointly written by Ma Xin and Fu Menghu, asking the general army of the Navy Division to rush to Fucheng immediately to discuss how to resist a strong enemy, and said that he had sent a message to Hangzhou to ask for reinforcements, and was eager to cooperate with Yunyun.

Ma Xin is at the same level as the chief soldier of the Taizhou Naval Division, and Fu Menghu is a soldier, not a governor or governor who can directly order him. The document signed by the two, although the chief soldier of the Navy Division has the right not to go, but if something goes wrong with Taizhou's defense, even if you think about it with your knees, you can guess who these two guys will throw the black pot on.

The situation was urgent, and the chief soldier of the Navy Division had to rush to Taizhou with his own soldiers. After running all night, he arrived at Fucheng the next day, but when he arrived outside the city, looking at the posture at the head of the city, the chief soldier of the naval division always felt as if something was wrong.
