In Fuzhou City, in the study of Zhang's mansion, Zhang Xuesheng sat in the study and read quietly.

Since being held hostage and detained by Tian Xiong, although Zhang Xuesheng is a prisoner, he has not been troubled, except for the restriction of his movements, the rest is as usual, and his daily diet is also provided as usual.

On this day, after hearing that his subordinates reported that Li Qingtai had hanged himself, Zhang Xuesheng sighed and said to himself: "Zheng Chenggong has been trapped in the sea since then!" ”

Zhang Xuesheng waved his hand and let the family go down, and the room returned to tranquility again.

Zhang Xuesheng sat silently, thinking about something.

"Zhang Gongke?" Suddenly, a strong voice came from outside the room.

Zhang Xuesheng was alert and responded: "Zhang is here!" Dare to ask who is the honorable frame? ”

"Nan'an Zheng Ming Yan will see you!" The man outside the room said softly.

Zheng Chenggong???

Zhang Xuesheng's face was stunned, showing a look of disbelief, and after a moment, he hurriedly got up and stepped forward to open the door.

There were three people standing outside the room, the first one was about twenty-six or seventeen years old, seven feet long, slightly dark-skinned, and dignified and dignified.

A man had a slender face, and under his two high raised eyebrows was a pair of long, shining eyes, which were dark and shining, and his sharp gaze seemed to be able to perceive everything.

The person who walked at the end was strong, powerful, sword-eyed, and very powerful.

"Zheng Chenggong has seen Zhang Gong!" The young general man bowed outside the door and said in a harmonious voice.

……

Zhang Xuesheng invited Zheng Chenggong and the others into the study,

"Zhang Gonghong is a great talent, Mingyan has heard of it, and it is a blessing for Mingyan to see it today!" Zheng Chenggong said happily, "I took the liberty to visit, and I begged for forgiveness!" ”

"How dare the general of the defeated army be praised as the surname of the country!" Zhang Xuesheng said lightly.

Zheng Chenggong said: "Zhang Gong is a civil official. In charge of money and grain, there is no shortage of money and grain for the Qing army in Fujian, and the loss of Fuzhou is not the responsibility of Zhang Gong. ”

Zhang Xuesheng didn't answer, so he was silent.

Zheng Chenggong said earnestly to Zhang Xuesheng, "Zhang Gong is full of economy and talent. If Zhang Gong can help him, it is hoped that the revival of the society will be restored, and the people of Li can be hoped. Please also ask Zhang Gong to advise! ”

The atmosphere in the room became awkward for a while-Zheng Chenggong was very enthusiastic, but Student Zhang was expressionless.

"Since the Tatars entered the customs, the community has fallen, the people of Li are suffering, the world is ten rooms and nine empty, the bones are exposed, and the population is gone!" Zheng Chenggong's face was stunned, and he sighed. "There is no smoke for thousands of miles, and there is no crown belt in China. A certain non-Zhang Gong is willing to see Huaxia Cangsheng suffer the disaster of Wuhu chaos again! ”

Zhang Xuesheng sighed when he heard it, bowed down and said: "Since the surname of the country will not be abandoned, I am willing to serve my modest efforts!" ”

"Zhang Gong, please get up!" Zheng Chenggong hurriedly helped Zhang Xuesheng up.

Walking out of Zhang's mansion, Gan Hui said angrily: "General, this person has no great talent, why bother to persuade him to surrender in person?" ”

Yao Qisheng said with a smile: "The general is buying a horse for a thousand dollars!" ”

Gan Hui didn't read much and didn't understand much.

Zheng Chenggong looked at his confidant and beloved general. said gently: "Zhang Xuesheng is the biggest official in Fuzhou today, and he also chose to submit to the general trend. There is him as a model. It will be much less difficult to persuade others to surrender! ”

Gan Hui understood a little when he heard this, but quickly said: "Many of those officials are grass on the wall, and they can't be trusted at all, why should the general recruit these people!" ”

Zheng Chenggong looked at the sky, "Otherwise, what else?" We don't have that much official history, and we can't do without them at the moment! And the sea is tolerant of all rivers. If I can't even tolerate these people, how can other Manchu Han officials take refuge in me in the future! ”

Gan Hui said with some indignation, "Many of those people are corrupt officials and corrupt officials, so that they are good at eating the common people, and it is impossible to rely on them to govern a good place!" ”

Zheng Chenggong heard it and pondered for a while and said, "It's just a temporary measure. After the University of Political Science and Law is built, the situation will be much better! Now it's up to the law to control them! ”

Seeing that Zhang Xuesheng had surrendered, Fuzhou's civil and military officials continued to surrender, and the originally interrupted government affairs of Fuzhou began to operate normally again.

Returning to the Fuzhou Prefecture, Zheng Chenggong received a return from the generals sent to recover the prefectures and counties of Fujian.

He Wenxing, who was the closest, led 8,000 soldiers and horses to Ningde Mansion.

In the Ningde Mansion, the prefect Liu Xian summoned his subordinates to discuss: "I heard that Zheng Chenggong is both wise and brave, and he also has a group of tigers and wolves under him, and even the Manchu Eight Banners are not opponents. Now that he has a subordinate He Wenxing leading 8,000 troops to attack Decheng, I think we should surrender as soon as possible! ”

Ningde garrison Chen Long was born in the mountains and wilderness, after the Tartars went south, he took refuge in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, fought a few battles, and then relied on bribes to become a Ningde garrison all the way.

Chen Long was usually short-tempered, greedy and lustful, and often took the people into captivity.

Seeing Zheng Chenggong calling, Long Chen was anxious and afraid.

Zheng Chenggong's law is strict, and those who do evil have been brought to justice.

Chen Long knew that his temperament was difficult to change, and after taking refuge in Zheng Chenggong, his life could not be guaranteed, so he hurriedly persuaded him: "Adults can't!" If you take refuge in this way, it is easy to look down on Zheng Chenggong, and Zheng Chenggong will inevitably not pay attention to you. ”

Hearing Chen Long's persuasion, Liu Xian also felt that it made sense when he heard it, and he said with some hesitation: "Are you confident that you can resist Zheng Chenggong's vanguard He Wenxing?" ”

"I'm willing to go out of the city and fight the enemy to the death! If you don't win, it's not too late for you to surrender! ”

Hearing what Chen Long said, Liu Xian agreed, and handed over all the six thousand soldiers and horses in the city to Chen Long to take charge of.

Chen Long led the army out of the city and relied on the city wall to go down.

Soon He Wenxing was killed.

The two armies faced each other, and Chen Long stepped out with a machete in his hand and shouted loudly: "Pirates, you don't stay in the sea, you dare to run ashore to find death!" ”

He Wenxing scolded: "What kind of ability do you dare to come to fight against me, surrender quickly, I can spare your dog's life!" ”

Chen Long scolded: "How can I be a pirate!" ”

When He Wenxing heard this, he was furious, and he rushed to take Chen Long.

Chen Long should raise a knife to meet him, the two horses intersected, and the battle reached four or five, Chen Long expected that the enemy could not be beaten, so he turned the horse and left.

He Wenxing hurriedly rode after him.

Chen Long recalled that Hewen Xingma was close, took out a knife and threw it.

He Wenxing caught it and threw it hard at Chen Long.

Chen Long didn't expect He Wenxing to catch the flight and return it.

Chen Long hurriedly dodged, and He Wenxing rushed to the scene and hacked him to death with a knife.

At the head of the city, Liu Xian saw that Chen Long was dead, and hurriedly erected a white flag on the head of the city.

Liu Xian opened the city gate with a few relatives, walked out of the city with a seal ribbon in his hand, and walked to He Wenxing to surrender.

He Wenxing temporarily threw Liu Du to teach him to remain the county guard, and his son ran errands with the army.

Ningde Mansion was taken, and soon where the Zheng family's army passed, Nanping, Sanming and other prefectures and counties surrendered one after another. (To be continued.) )
