Feng Xifan, known as Xifan, was a native of Longxi, Fujian (now Qiling Village, Longwen District, Zhangzhou, Fujian), and the son of Feng Chengshi, a worker. The main generals of the Ming and Zheng periods in Taiwan, together with Chen Yonghua and Liu Guoxuan, are known as Taiwan's three masters.

Although Zhu Yongxing knows that novels and movies are unreliable, "a sword without blood" still involuntarily comes to mind, and his impression of Feng Xifan is also very bad. As for Chen Yonghua, he is naturally not the chief helmsman of the Heaven and Earth Society, let alone an ordinary scholar with outstanding martial arts, but Zhu Yongxing just likes it very much. No way, preconceived ideas are not so easy to dispel.

Congratulations on the victory, congratulatory gifts, these superficial things passed, and the two sides quickly got to the point. Chen Yonghua and Feng Xifan didn't mention the matter of Chen Ba, the loyal and brave marquis, and the order to transfer troops that had been made up before had already made the Zheng family know Zhu Yongxing's attitude. There are steps, to give face, after the victory of the Eastern Crusade, it would be very unwise to talk about this matter.

"In response to the Eastern Crusade, Zheng Shizi bothered. I don't know when your army's plan will be launched, and how many men and horses will be dispatched? Zhu Yongxing heard that the Zheng family was preparing to send troops, and he did not have any surprised expression, Taiwan's barbarism made the generals of Jin and Xiamen feel a headache, and they were reluctant to relocate their families, and now that they have the opportunity to seize a foothold on land, how can they let it go.

Although the words were peaceful, as soon as the word Guijun was spoken, Chen and Feng knew that Zhu Yongxing did not have the psychology and intention to use Zheng Jun as a subordinate Ming army, and he still had a deliberative tone. At the same time, this also shows Zhu Yongxing's pro-alien attitude, and the Zheng family has been outside the imperial court.

"Zheng Shizi has dispatched tens of thousands of elite soldiers and hundreds of warships, and he can attack and capture them as long as he waits for His Highness's order." Chen Yonghua was respectful and said very politely, and he was willing to put the Zheng family under the court. Do as you are told.

"Then let's go out as soon as possible!" Zhu Yongxing smiled faintly, and did not feel happy because of this small change, "The army led by the King of Ruyang is like a bamboo, if it is late, Chaozhou is afraid that it will fall into the hands of our army." ”

This statement was somewhat ironic, and at the beginning of the Eastern Crusade, the Zheng family pushed back and forth. Stand still; Now I want to pick the fruit, and I make a fake look. Could it be that without an edict, the Zheng family would be honest, it's really a joke.

Chen Yonghua's face was ashamed, but Feng Xifan looked as usual, bowed down to receive the order, and then said: "Your Highness, the land of gold and xia is not enough to raise soldiers. Can it be denied that Chaozhou is a place for our army to eat? ”

"I'm afraid Chaozhou is not enough!" Zhu Yongxing patted the map on the table as if he had already prepared, motioned for Chen and Feng to come forward and watch, and drew his fingers on the map, "How about the four counties of Raoping, Dongshan, Yunxiao, and Zhangpu?" If the Yanping Domain is strong and strong, it will take Zhangzhou as a place to eat, and the Lone King will not allow it. In addition, they will also send competent officials to govern the locality, so that the soldiers and horses of the feudal clan have no worries about food and salary. ”

These four counties are in the southeast of Chaozhou and already belong to Fujian Province. The meaning of Zhu Yongxing's words is also very clear, he wants to have a place to eat. It's simple, take it from the Qing army! Also, if these places are defeated, the imperial court still has to send officials, which is reasonable, but it is not up to your Zheng family to have the final say.

Somewhat sarcastic. It's a bit ridiculous again. Zhu Yongxing pretended not to hear the meaning of Feng Xifan's words, just eat the place, yes, but what kind of Chaozhou general soldiers, Zhizhou and other civil and military generals, just don't give it to your Zheng family.

"All officers below are self-appointed. Such as the duke, the marquis, the uncle and the admiral, the compulsory table is sealed, and then the seal is issued", this is the Zheng family's previous practice. And the so-called "revise the table and ask for the seal, and then issue a seal" is just a formality, which is equivalent to writing a report with the left hand and approving it with the right hand. But now, Zhu Yongxing wants to change. The situation is different, the Zheng family should be enlightened, right?

Chen Yonghua was a little awake, but Feng Xifan's face turned red, but his expression was reversed from the expression just now.

Any questions? King Yanping was sealed by the imperial court, and he should not have so much power. The stinky problems that I used to have before are not good now. Everyone else is begging and coaxing, but Zhu Yongxing wants to let the Zheng family see, without you, it can still be done. Didn't you rely on your own strength and disobey the command, then I threw you aside and left to dry.

"Why, there are many soldiers and horses under the Yanping Domain, and there are thousands of warships, but they can't even take down these four counties?" Zhu Yongxing's face sank suddenly, he had been in the upper position for so long, and his majesty and momentum had still accumulated a lot, and Feng Xifan didn't dare to look at it directly.

"Your Royal Highness, the Qing court has implemented a policy of relocating the border, our army has difficulty in supplying food and salary, and the country surnamed Ye has led troops to recover Taiwan, and the soldiers and horses of Jin and Xiamen are not strong." Chen Yonghua sighed secretly in his heart, bowed down and said: "And there are still Qing army sailors in Fujian Province, and there are traitors such as Huang Wu and Shi Lang, who are familiar with water warfare, and it is not easy to take it. ”

"Tong'an General Soldier Shi Lang, well, it can't be taken lightly." Zhu Yongxing pursed the corners of his mouth and said lightly.

In September of the 18th year of Shunzhi (1661), the Qing court sent ministers to the coastal provinces to supervise the implementation of the "Relocation Order". After Suna arrived in Fujian, he not only supervised the implementation of the "Relocation Order", but also inspected the various Qing army units stationed in Fujian and watched Shi Lang's training of soldiers and horses. On the 30th of the same month, Sunahai returned to Beijing, that is, he played the Qing court and recommended Shi Lang as the chief soldier. On October 25, the Qing court immediately appointed Shi Lang as the governor of the bureau and the chief military officer of Tong'an.

Chen Yonghua and Feng Xifan couldn't help but glance at each other quickly, and were surprised by Zhu Yongxing's well-informed.

For Shi Lang, Zhu Yongxing attaches more importance to it than the Zheng family. The Qing army's Guangdong Naval Division was defeated, and the next opponent was the Fujian Naval Division, and Shi Lang in the Fujian Naval Division was undoubtedly Zhu Yongxing's fear. Fortunately, Shi Lang was only the general soldier of Tong'an, and had not yet become the commander of the Fujian Navy Division (in the first year of Kangxi, the Qing government established a water division in Fujian, and set up a water division commander and two general soldiers, which was the first water division army formed by the Qing Dynasty).

"But don't be presumptuous." Zhu Yongxing turned his words, his eyes swept over the faces of Chen and Feng, and said: "If you jointly attack the Fujian Naval Division, or focus on Shi Lang, will you have a chance of winning?" ”

Thinking jumped too fast, Chen Yonghua and Feng Xifan were stunned for a moment, and then they thought about it.

On the whole, the Zheng family is navy is stronger than the army, especially after the battle of Nanjing, the elite army suffered heavy losses, and in the face of the Qing army and naval division in Fujian Province, it almost lost the ability and confidence to land and attack. However, now the situation has changed, and the Qing army in Fujian Province has to guard against the Zheng army of Jin and Xia, and also has to resist the Ming army of the Eastern Expedition, and the strength of the army will inevitably be dispersed. And the Zheng family is less of the threat of the Qing army in Guangdong, and it is not impossible to join forces with the South China Sea Fleet to defeat the Fujian naval division of the Qing army.
