Chapter 235: The Rise of Governor Zhang's Mansion 2

The fact that the Renaissance Association did not meddle in the name of Zhu Xieyuan and the People's Army does not mean that Wang Shuhui did not interfere in the name of Zhu Xieyuan and the People's Army. You must know that although neither Wang Shuhui nor the Fuxing Association care too much about the position of the commander, Wang Shuhui is still the commander of Jingzhou Wei officially appointed by the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, even if Wang Shuhui is the commander of Jingzhou Guard, he does not have the power to directly intervene in the Wuchang issue, but Wang Shuhui does not directly interfere in the power of Wuchang Mansion, which does not mean that Wang Shuhui cannot interfere in the Wuchang Mansion issue through his position as the commander of Jingzhou Guard. For example, Zhang Hong, the prefect of Jingzhou, who has been completely controlled by the Fuxing Society, has the right to meddle in the issue of Wuchang Mansion.

Regarding the matter of Zhu Xieyuan leading the military governors of the five provinces to quell the rebellion, Wang Shuhui's attitude was of course relatively mild. However, he was not ready to let Zhu Xieyuan lead a group of bandits who were looting everywhere to Wuchang Mansion to wreak havoc. He was not prepared to give Zhu Xieyuan such a chance.

Wang Shuhui's solution to Zhu Xieyuan was to directly take over Wuchang Mansion from the Baomin Army before Zhu Xieyuan put the army together, so that Wuchang Mansion could completely transition into the hands of the Fuxing Society. Even the Wuchang Fuxing Association is not prepared to fully control it.

As long as the Fuxing Association holds all the land in the Wuchang area in its hands and ensures the best properties of the wharf industrial zone outside Wuchang City, then Yao Zongwen likes to control the Wuchang Mansion City, which has become completely dilapidated and depressed because a large number of citizens have moved out of the workers' residential buildings near the industrial zone, then give the dilapidated Wuchang Mansion City to Yao Zongwen as a blessing.

Of course, Wang Shuhui, the commander of the Jingzhou Guard, could not directly send troops to take over Wuchang Mansion. If the Fuxing Society wants to take over Wuchang Mansion, it needs to take several steps.

First, the transfer of the People's Protector Army in Wuchang Province. If the People's Liberation Army is disbanded on the spot, it is very likely that these soldiers who originally participated in the rebellion will be held accountable by Yao Zongwen and others who later returned to Wuchang.

As early as two years ago, the Fuxing Society had taken full control of Daye County, which was only about 200 miles away from Wuchang. Daye County, which is becoming the largest steel base of the Fuxing Society, is short of a large number of workers. You must know that whether it is a steel plant, a copper factory, or the mining and smelting of rare metals (gold and silver), these heavy industry enterprises need a large number of workers. The shortage of construction workers in the factories and supporting facilities for workers' lives in these industrial and mining enterprises alone can reach the scale of 40,000 or 50,000 people.

Therefore, if the People's Protector Army of several thousand people is invested in Daye County, it will not even make a splash, and it will be absorbed by the Daye Iron and Steel Center.

As for whether the soldiers of the National People's Liberation Army will not want to be workers. You don't need to think about this at all. With the exception of a very small number of ambitious figures, the vast majority of the SPA soldiers longed for the stable, safe, and affluent life of being factory workers. Originally, in Wuchang Prefecture, the People's Army was not comparable to those factories in the docks of the Fuxing Society in terms of personnel recruitment.

Second, Jingzhou Wei's pacification of the military rebellion in Wuchang Mansion must have a civilian official come forward. There's no way around it. In the Ming Dynasty, an environment that emphasized civil affairs over military force, civil officials were "big leaders" and "grasped" both locally and centrally. Wang Shuhui, as the commander of Jingzhou Wei, did not have the power to directly intervene in the Wuchang issue. However, Zhang Hong, the prefect of Jingzhou, as the supreme administrator of Jingzhou, has the power to directly intervene in the Wuchang issue in every sense.

For example, Zhang Hongzhang of "Yunwen Yunwu", in the case of the Baomin Army's looting and invasion of the Jingzhou area, led the local armed forces in Jingzhou, including various civilian armed forces and regular armies, to attack the Wuchang rebels and even directly hit the territory of Wuchang Mansion, and completely annihilated the ** armed forces of the People's Liberation Army entrenched in Wuchang Prefecture. This situation can not only exist in the environment of the Ming Dynasty, but also in the planning of Gu Junen, Song Xiance and Niu Jinxing to help the revival society.

Third, the Fuxinghui's control of the Wuchang region must be affirmed by the central government of the Ming Dynasty. The solution to this problem is not very difficult. Because Wang Shuhui established a close relationship with the inner court of the northern and southern capitals of the Ming Dynasty through the way of the Zhijiang Palace. Especially because of the full and comprehensive public relations work carried out by the Zhijiang Royal Mansion on the Emperor of the Apocalypse, King Shin and the Emperor of the Apocalypse and the eunuch companions around King Shin. The relationship between the central government of the Ming Dynasty and Wang Shuhui, the leader of the Revival Society, the biggest subversive force in the Ming Dynasty, was quite close.

Gu Junen, Song Xiance and Niu Jinxing were completely sure that after the rebellion in Wuchang Mansion was pacified by Jingzhou Wei led by Lord Zhang, Zhang Hong was pushed to the position of at least Huguangbu political envoy through the relationship between the Zhijiang Mansion and the inner court. Naturally, it was natural for Wang Shuhui to move from the position of the commander of Jingzhou Wei to the position of the general army of Huguang through the work of counterinsurgency.

Once Wang Shuhui became the supreme commander of the military power in the Huguang region, then the expansion of the Fuxinghui's power from the Jingzhou region to the entire Huguang region had an official name and protection.

Of course, because the life of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Zhu Youxiao, was in a state of countdown (the Emperor Carpenter died in September 1627 AD). The downfall of Wei Zhongxian's eunuch clique is also entering a state of countdown. This question may hinder the Renaissance's plans. However, because of the foresight of Wang Shuhui, a traverser. As early as the end of Wanli, the Zhijiang Palace, began to establish a good relationship with Zhu Youzhen, who is now King Xin and will become Emperor Chongzhen a year later.

Moreover, not only is Wang Chengen, the eunuch of the Xinwangfu who has not yet made a career, already a close friend of the Zhijiang Palace, but also Cao Huachun, the eunuch of the former Xinwangfu who was demoted to Nanjing in the early years of the Apocalypse because he offended Wei Zhongxian, is currently living a safe, comfortable, and prosperous life in Nanjing, and it is entirely because of the help of the Zhijiang Palace.

That is to say, even after Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, who is now living diligently, ascended the throne and became Emperor Chongzhen, Wang Shuhui, as the guest of honor of the Zhijiang Palace, can still get the full trust from the emperor to the bigwigs of the inner court.

That's the perk of the traverser.

At the meeting of the Standing Committee, Wang Shuhui gave the members of the Standing Committee a detailed introduction to the set of plans he put forward to use his title as the commander of the Jingzhou Guard to interfere in the Wuchang issue and finally realize the expansion of the Fuxing Society in the entire Huguang region.

Because it involves the internal political issues of the Ming Dynasty, most of the Standing Committee members do not know much about it, so it took a whole afternoon to introduce the whole plan.

For his teacher Wang Shuhui who is always able to deal with the most troublesome problems in the best way, the revival society has long been accustomed to it.

Although it was not possible to directly launch an armed uprising against the Ming Dynasty, it made most of the Standing Committee members feel depressed. However, the fact that the full expansion of the Revival Society can be achieved through less drastic means is already the best result so far. Therefore, everyone calmly raised their hands to vote in favor and expressed their full support for their teacher Wang Shuhui
