Because he was worried that Zheng Fan would do something on the boat and repeat the drowning scene of King Xiao Ming, Emperor Wuding and his entourage, who traveled from Fujing to the north and returned to the capital, could only trek through mountains and rivers with great difficulty. Because it was necessary to implement the plan to seize the capital before the success of Zheng Kezang's Northern Expedition, the trip to the north required a quick degree. In this way, it will be bitter for everyone who is entourage. Although the local labor and money were properly received, only the kings who had experience in short-distance travel from Dongning to Fuzhou could afford to sit in a bumpy car. After a long time of traveling, one by one, his eyes were dull and his spirit was sluggish.

Fortunately, no matter how hard and long the journey is, there will be an end, no, the voice of the waiter is like the jade sound of amnesty, which makes Zhu Ciene, who has long been in the car until his bones itch, feel refreshed.

"Master, come to report quickly, there are still fifteen miles away from Nanjing City, and the hundred officials who greet you are already waiting in the Shili Pavilion."

Zhu Ciene lifted the curtain on the window, but before she could say anything, she saw another chamberlain running over quickly and said, "Master, the emperor has a message, and the convoy will go to the imperial tomb of the great grandfather first." ”

Didn't it be agreed that they would worship the ancestral tombs first? How did it suddenly change. With such doubts, Zhu Ciene walked out of the sedan car, then took a horse from the hand of the Han general who guarded him, turned over and rode up. Of course, the reason why he changed was for a purpose, and it was a major event, and the sacrifice of the mausoleum was also a major event, Zhu Ciene naturally did not want to let the civil and military officials see an industrious and mentally depressed heir of the Ming Dynasty in these big scenes.

Waiting for the Han general of the flag bearer guard to lead Zhu Ciene and the horse under the crotch to the Wuding Emperor's imperial chariot, the convoy officially looked in the direction of the mausoleum avant-garde, but the change of direction of the imperial car immediately led a group of chaos, a few days earlier into Beijing The bachelors were leading the Nanjing hundred officials to greet in front, at this time hearing the news, they had to hurry to Xiaoling while shouting surprise.

But after all, things were sudden, and Zheng Fan had always implemented strict control over horses, so when the civil and military forces who were sparse and pulled together finally got back together, Emperor Wuding had already entered the filial piety tomb accompanied by Zhu Ciene and a group of clans, and then waited for the panting civil and military soldiers to run to the hall in small steps, and the sound of crying sacrifices came to an end.

"Do you think that if you cry a few times, Grandpa Tai will be able to bless the Ming Dynasty?" Someone in the teased civil and military whispered. "If it was really so spiritual, Emperor Yizong would not have hung himself on the coal mountain back then."

"I can't say for sure." The other scarlet robe continued. "Liu Bei's country didn't cry, maybe crying and crying, some people will be busy declaring their allegiance to Zhengshuo."

The filthy one even interjected: "I can't keep it even, I am worried that I won't even be able to cry when the king comes back." ”

Even here there was ridicule and sarcasm, and there were also people who followed the five-body cry to the ground, but this time, the originally chaotic team suddenly became clear. Although on this occasion, it is impossible for everyone to blame each other, but everyone must be able to understand the irreconcilable position of their respective camps.

Emperor Wuding cried and sacrificed, weak and powerless by the inner attendant to enjoy the palace to support up, so far, the ceremony of the capital can not be done, in charge of the entire ceremony of the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Chen Shenwu had to negotiate with Yuanfu Hong Lei, the second assistant Yang Ying after the cancellation of the noon gate of the pilgrimage, directly sent the Wuding Emperor father and son into the simple repair of the imperial city, as for the various clans also one by one to live in their respective mansions, therefore, the Wuding court is considered to have completed the plan to move north.

However, when Emperor Wuding moved north, Zheng Kezhang was leading a large army to fight a fierce battle in northern Jiangsu and Huainan, and without the preservation of the Xia king, Hong Lei and other old ministers of Zheng Fan did not even dare to hold the first great court ceremony after returning to the capital. As a last resort, on July 7, Emperor Wuding, who had recovered a little, sent an envoy to the city of Yangzhou to recall Zheng Kezang. But when the envoy arrived at the front line, it was the most fierce time of the battle of Yangzhou, and the Zheng army had already paid more than 4,000 casualties of the new annexed army, and had not yet conquered Shugang.

However, Zheng Kezang, who refused to return to Beijing to participate in the Great Imperial Ceremony, could not help but deal with the urgent military affairs transferred from Nanjing by the Staff Office of the Metropolitan Governor's Office. At this time, there were three elements in front of Zheng Kezang, two of which were related to the southwest battlefield, and the other had nothing to do with Nanjing, which was from the Northern Expeditionary Army's Western Anhui Army.

The first of the southwestern military information transmitted from Nanjing was a report from Guangxi, in which He Qian, the commander-in-chief of Guangxi, now had the possibility of fleeing westward to the enemy, and urgently requested additional reinforcements in order to recover Guizhou Province and march into Yunnan and Guizhou; The second is from Hunan, after the Hunan Qing army failed to attack Yongzhou and Hengzhou, it suddenly broke into Jiangxi, and the governor of Jiangxi, Gu Tongshan, had urgently transferred the first division of the Japanese army stationed in southern Jiangxi and the second division of the Japanese army stationed in Nanchang to fill in western Jiangxi to contain the Qing army, but Gu Tongshan was worried that the strength of the two divisions was not enough, so he requested that the Hong Gongzhu department be immediately dispatched south for reinforcements; The report from the Northern Expeditionary Army's Western Anhui Army said that the enemy in Anqing seemed to have broken away from the fortified city and fought to the death with the Zheng army of the Western Expedition after being strengthened by the Qing troops in Wuwei, Lujiang and other places.

"Guangxi, Guangxi, He Qian is really causing chaos, how can Lone take care of it at this moment." It has been almost half a month since the news from Guangxi was delivered to Zheng Kezang, and when Zheng Kezhang decided to go to Guangdong, even the daylily was cold. "Sue him, if there is a similar request in the future, let him discuss with Chen Mengwei, the soldier and the god, you must ask for instructions on everything, what do you want him to do as a general." Zheng Kezang, who was angry, said heavily, thinking that he would definitely feel wronged when it reached He Gan's ears, but the thing is like this, who made his recital unlucky, and it happened to be delivered at the most tense moment of the situation that Zheng Kezhang was facing. "By the way, here in Ganxi, what is the opinion of Qing and the others?"

"I think Lord Lin's vote is very suitable." The draft vote is actually a kind of handling opinion of the cabinet of the Ming and Qing dynasties on the central departments and local governments, and there is nothing inappropriate for Sun Youlao to apply it to Lin Sheng's construction of military affairs in western Jiangxi. "However, the minister thought that after mobilizing one division and two regiments of Yueqingbo to the south, the defense of northern Jiangxi would be completely empty, so while the minister was mobilizing Yueqingbo's troops to the south, Peng Ze's Xuanwei First Division should cross north to capture Wangjiang."

"Let Xuanwei's first division cross north? Isn't Ganbei completely empty? Zheng Kezang flicked his eyebrows and looked at Sun Youlao with some confusion. Isn't it a bit risky, let's talk about what kind of reason. ”

Sun Youlao came to the map, and at this time, his own staff officer put the map of northern Jiangxi up: "Your Majesty, please see, this is the Yangtze River, this is the Wangjiang River opposite Pengze, in the east of it is Anqing, and in the west is Susong in Anhui and Huangmei in Hubei. ”

"Judging from the map, there is still some distance between Wangjiang and Anqing, but Susong and Huangmei are quite close." Zheng Kezhang looked at it at a glance, and his heart suddenly became clear, he must know that there is a lake named Bo Lake on the bank of the Wangjiang River, which is connected to the Yellow Lake, Daguan Lake, Longgan Lake, Longhu Lake, and Dayuan Lake, and Susong and Huangmeigu are around these lakes. "Gu understands, Qing means to transfer the Yangtze River fleet into Bohu."

"The king." Sun Youlao complimented. "That's exactly what the minister meant, so that not only the two counties will be frightened, but I am afraid that the two provinces will also be shaken, and the enemy of Anqing may not dare to come out of the city when he knows that he is suffering from the enemy on his belly." Sun Youlao still didn't say a word, that is, even if the Qing army went out of the city, it would definitely pick up soft persimmons to pinch first, if a division attracted the Qing army in Anqing and won time for the main force, then it would be worth it even if the division was completely lost. "In this way, you should kill two birds with one stone."

"Makes sense." Zheng Kezhang didn't think that Sun Youlao was so deep, but now the role of the red single ship on the eastern front is not very large, if it can liberate the combat power of the Yangtze River Fleet, it will not just kill two birds with one stone but kill three birds with one stone. "Just do what you want." Speaking of this, Zheng Kezhang seemed to think of something. "By the way, the Qing army marched west from Changsha, and naturally Xinchangbo and Xinfengbo were unfavorable.

"Your Majesty, Xin Changbo is an old minister in the domain, and it doesn't hurt to reprimand a few words, but Xin Fengbo is a demote after all, so you have to be cautious." Sun Youlao immediately persuaded him. "The minister still remembers that Xin Fengbo asked the lord to transfer red single boats to help fight Dongting Lake several times that day, perhaps it was the disadvantage of the sailor, and he was not able to march."

"Qing is also reasonable," Zheng Kezhang thought about it for a while, and felt that Sun Youlao's statement was Lao Cheng's country, so he clapped his mind. "In this way, Huang Chuxu led two teams to help Wangjiang, and another team of red single boats was transferred to support Xinfengbo. As for the rest of the team, Yangzhou is not over yet, and they still have to close the canal to prevent the Maqi Department from breaking through. Zheng Kezang's words paused when he said this. Sue Wang Xinhua, the ship is given to him, if he can't force the enemy of Changsha back, Hugh blame is ruthless. ”

Sun Youlao retreated, but Zheng Kezhang was a little restless pacing back and forth in the big tent, he didn't know why he had such a feeling, so he was very irritable, and after being patient for a while, he suddenly remembered something, so he asked the guard: "Is there any new report from Jinyiwei?" ”

The so-called Jinyiwei is a spy agency established by Zheng Kezang on the basis of the Military Law Department on the occasion of the Ming Dynasty's request for the restoration of the flag-bearer guard and the Jinyiwei, of course, the object of this spy agency is no longer the Ming Dynasty but the Zheng family.

"Back to the king," replied the guard, who acted as a clerk, flipped through the summary book beside him. "The Jinyi Wei reported that it had been learned from the guards who entered the kings' mansions that all the feudal clans had asked the warriors in the palace to practice diligently.

"Unforeseen changes? Want to repeat the Xuanwu Gate? Zheng Kezhang didn't think of anything else, but just contacted the envoy who had just left, and he chuckled disdainfully for this. It's a dream. "But Zheng Kezhang knows very well the reason to despise the enemy strategically and attach importance to the enemy tactically, so he thought about it for a while and then ordered. Transferred the first part of the Oriental Fleet to Zhenjiang, and ordered the Songchongdu Governor's Office to move troops to Danyang, remember, it was a secret transfer of troops, and it was not allowed to go out quietly."
