Chapter Eighty-Six: On the Way Back
Yao Qisheng said, "My subordinates recommended Chen Yonghua, head of the Organization Department and Governor of Taiwan. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoChen Yonghua has been governing Taiwan for two years and has made remarkable achievements, and he is really the best candidate for the Southwest Rectification Commissioner! ”
Hearing Yao Qisheng's recommendation of Chen Yonghua, Zheng Chenggong thought of Chen Yonghua's political achievements in Taiwan.
After Chen Yonghua became the governor of Taiwan, he vigorously developed agriculture and built water conservancy.
In order to solve the problem of the difficulty of transporting grain from the interior, Chen Yonghua encouraged the people to open up the land, with rice as the most important crop. Sugarcane is also one of the priorities of agricultural development, and sugarcane is refined into sugar, which is then sold as a commodity to Japan and the mainland.
At that time, Taiwan would only use boiled seawater to make table salt, so the quality of salt was very poor.
Chen Yonghua introduced the salt leaching method to improve the process, and the process is roughly as follows: first dig a ditch near the salt pan to make the seawater pour onto the sand to form salt soil, and then take the salt brine extracted from the salt soil to the crystallization pond to obtain salt grains through sun exposure to improve the quality of salt.
More importantly, a relatively complete education system has been established from top to bottom in Taiwan.
He combined education with the selection of talents, and implemented the education system established by Zheng Chenggong, stipulating that Taiwanese children must enter primary school at the age of eight.
In order to make the Gaoshan people agree with Zheng Jiajun's rule, Chen Yonghua asked each village in the area where the Gaoshan compatriots lived to set up schools to facilitate the Gaoshan children to enroll in and receive education.
In order to attract more Gaoshan children to school and reduce the burden on Gaoshan compatriots, Chen Yonghua encouraged them to send their children to school.
With the implementation of Chen Yonghua's series of measures, the whole Taiwan has entered a period of rapid development, a large amount of wasteland has been developed, the people's lives have been improved day by day, and the belonging to Zheng Jiajun has become stronger and stronger.
Thinking of Chen Yonghua's contribution to Taiwan's rectification, he is a good candidate.
Zheng Chenggong said: "Chen Yonghua is a good candidate, but after he leaves, what will Taiwan do?" ”
Yao Qisheng replied: "Everything in Taiwan is on the right track now, just send officials Xiao Gui Cao to follow!" ”
Zheng Chenggong thought about it and thought that it was, and decided to let Chen Yonghua come back as the Southwest Rectification Commissioner.
After deciding on the plan and candidates for the rectification of the southwest, two 20,000 troops guarded the southwest, and at the same time established a military academy to recruit soldiers.
Zheng Chenggong led tens of thousands of Zheng Jiajun and began to set off back to Nanjing.
When he came, in order to avoid the eyes and ears of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, he took a ship up the river and went to Hankou.
But on the way back, there is no need for such trouble.
From Hunan to Nanjing via Anhui, the people of all ages, regardless of men, women, and children, welcomed them all along the way.
Every time he passed through a county town and entered the city, Zheng Chenggong would tell his soldiers, "The three disciplines and eight points of attention are kept in mind by Lao Tzu, and if that bastard dares to violate, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite." ”
"Don't dare!"
"Don't worry, the big general, the small one will never make a mistake!"
……
Seeing that his subordinates all patted their chests to ensure that they did not make mistakes, Zheng Chenggong shouted, "Enter the city!" ”
As soon as they saw Zheng Jiajun entering the city, every household was lit up with lights and firecrackers, and Zheng Jiajun was treated as a hero.
The soldiers of the Zheng family army desperately held their heads high, their eyes staring straight ahead.
Standing on the side of the street, looking at the majestic and majestic appearance of the soldiers of the Zheng family, the people chattered.
"Zheng Jiajun's artillery is so big!"
"You are ignorant of this, and tell you that the Zheng family army can defeat the Qing army by relying on these artillery. You don't know, the bombardment of the Qing army's iron cavalry that day was full of fireworks, wow, good guy, kill more than 100,000 Qing soldiers at once......"
"You just blow it, Wu Sanguijun doesn't have more than 100,000. That day, only 50,000 or 60,000 people were killed, and the whole world and the ground exploded, and even the mountains exploded......"
"Yes! So powerful, no wonder Zheng Jiajun is so powerful! Now we don't have to worry about the Qing army killing again. ”
"The Qing army still wants to kill again, and if the country doesn't go to them for trouble, they should ask God to worship Buddha. Sooner or later, one day, the country surnamed Ye will definitely lead his troops north to destroy the Manchu Qing Dynasty, capture the Qing dog, and take revenge! ”
"Yes, yes, sooner or later, the country surnamed Ye will definitely sweep the north and take revenge, that damn Tartar, let us shave our hair and change clothes, if it weren't for the country surname, I wouldn't have the face to meet my ancestors!"
"Yes, thanks to the surname of the country. The **** Jurchen dog thief occupies our field house and tries to enslave us. Phew! I really hope that the surname of the country will lead the army north as soon as possible and eradicate those Qing dogs! ”
Countless people took their most precious food, wine and fruit, and handed them to the soldiers of the Zheng family army who were lined up in a neat line.
"Thank you, little brother, come on, taste the pears I grew myself, and moisten my throat!"
"Take it, child, the eggs laid by my old hen, eat more, kill more tartars, so that you can avenge everyone!"
"How can you say that it is forcible to take, this is given to you by the eldest mother. Take it and don't be afraid. The general blamed him and asked him to come to the eldest mother, and the eldest lady will testify to you! ”
……
The soldiers of the Zheng family army kept discipline in mind and did not dare to take the people's things alive or dead.
But the people were going to deliver things to the soldiers.
Many times, when I saw that the soldiers did not dare to collect things, they took advantage of the soldiers' inattention and secretly stuffed them into their pockets.
By the time they left the city, many soldiers had a lot of things in their pockets, including food, fruit wine, and even silver treasures.
I don't know which people it belonged to, and I couldn't send it back, so Zheng Chenggong had to ask the soldiers to hand over these things, let the military commander find good records, and then give them to those poor people.
Since the second year of Chongzhen, the war has continued, and the people have been living in panic and worry.
The banner of the king at the head of the city is constantly changing, today it is Zuo Liangyu, tomorrow it is the Qing army, and the day after tomorrow it becomes the Great Western Army, every time it changes, the people have to suffer once.
It's better to just rob it, and what I'm most afraid of is the slaughter of the dogs, which is really inhumane.
Now the people along the road are full of confidence in Zheng Jiajun when they see the majesty of the Zheng Jiajun and the strict military discipline.
With such an army to protect, what else do you need to be afraid of!
The people are worried that the heart of the earth is slowly calming down, living with peace of mind, working hard, and working hard for a better life tomorrow.
The soldiers of the Zheng family army saw the heartfelt gratitude of the people, and even gave them what they were reluctant to eat.
Hearing that Zheng Jiajun would swear to protect their safety, the excited looks and bright smiles of the people.
The soldiers of the Zheng family army were deeply affected and deeply aware of the responsibility on their shoulders.
Know what kind of responsibility a qualified soldier should bear! (To be continued.) )
