A joyful day, and it gets late.

Chongming Island was immersed in darkness.

Zuo Ruo and Zhai Zhe kept talking about the palm lamp before leaving. Although he was a little unhappy, he was still persuaded by Zhai Zhe, at least since he met Zhai Zhe, this person has been creating zĂ o miracles. Now they need an even bigger miracle.

When he turned out of the guard post outside the county office, he saw two people probing their brains there.

Zuo Ruo didn't see it very clearly, and shouted tentatively: "Gu San! Gu Biao! ”

The two of them trembled, and after a few steps in front of them, Gu San Mazi walked in front and said with a sneer: "General Zuo, is the adult inside?" ”

"Yes."

Gu San puffed up his chest and said, "I want to ask to see the adults and have something to tell." ”

Zuo Ruo smiled knowingly, pointed to the light inside, and turned to leave.

After Zhai Zhe came here, the various factions on Chongming Island had to reshuffle their cards, and it was impossible to fight separately like before, and what he had just said was just a rehearsal.

The two of them bowed down and watched Zuo Ruo leave: "Thank you, General Zuo!" ”

Although Zuo Ruo's battle in Songjiang Mansion could not completely change the situation of the war, it played the fame of the soldiers and horses in eastern Zhejiang, which made the Qing Yu frightened.

The lights in the county office were not extinguished until midnight, and the night on Chongming Island was a good night's sleep.

In the early morning of the next day, in front of the county government, the soldiers tinkled and knocked non-stop, replacing the original signboard of the county government with the signboard of General Pingyu's office, which was to announce that Zhai Zhe had taken over Chongming Island.

At that time, the general's palace convened all the generals to discuss the matter, including the Chongming Island County Commander Jing Benche and other civil officials also received orders, and Zhang Huangyan listened to the record.

Seeing that everyone arrived in a hurry, Zhai Zhe's face was majestic, and he didn't say a word of greeting, and gave an order directly.

"Ordered by King Lu to control the anti-Qing soldiers and horses from all walks of life in the south of the Yangtze River, he ordered Gu San and Gu Biao to rectify the Chongming Island Naval Division, responsible for the garrison of Chongming Island, and the local warships were all under his control."

"Shen Tingyang and Chen Huwei entered the mouth of the Yangtze River tomorrow, set up a water village on Jingjiang Island, cut off the Yangtze River route in the Jiangyin area, and contacted the besieged Jiangyin City, and contacted the water cowards along the river to attack the Qing prisoners."

Zhai Zhe bowed his hand to Wang Zhiren, who was sitting on the right side, and said, "For the matter of cutting off the waterway of the Yangtze River, we still need to ask General Wang for help." ”

"Should!" Wang Zhiren returned the salute loudly.

Zhai Zhe instructed softly: "Yangzhong Island and Jingjiang Island are both in the middle of the Yangtze River, although they are in the middle of the river, it is very dangerous to garrison them for a long time, and the Qing captives are likely to sneak attack by boat. However, we must intercept this year's Cao Yun, don't rush to Yangzhong Island first, first explore the time of the Cao Yun boats, and then have a target. ”

The Yangtze River Waterway was originally to invite the Zheng Navy Division to do it, but the current situation is urging, and the Zheng Navy Division is still far away. Without Zhang Butcher, you can't eat hairy pigs. The combat strength of Wu Songshui Division is not as good as that of the Zheng family, and it is more than enough to fight with the Qing Dynasty.

Wang Zhiren and Zhai Zhe have no subordinate relationship, although he, the general of Pinglu, nominally has the power to control the general army, but in fact, all the troops and horses are fighting separately. The reason why Wang Zhiren is on Chongming Island is because he still has a conscience to drive away the Qing captives. It is precisely because of this that Zhai Zhe wants to transfer Zuo Ruo away, leaving Zhang Mingzhen, who is good at handling relationships. In this situation, if the commanders and generals cannot work together, they will definitely let the Qing prisoners take advantage of the loopholes.

At present, Zhai Zhe is the only person who can let the people in Jiangnan see the hope of resisting the Qing Dynasty, and the anti-shaving orders scattered all over the country have Zhai Zhe's name on them.

That's prestige!

When Xia Yunyi and Xu Fuyuan and other literati saw Zhai Zhe again, they were also respectful one by one. Zhang Huang said that he was guarding himself and stood aside to make a record of the military discussion.

"Wu Ninghou has a plan to stay on Chongming Island, and Vice General Zhang will also rely on your sailor for the war in Songjiang. Summer grain is about to go on the market, and you can harass the villages and counties along the coast and on both sides of the Huangpu River to collect grain and grass, but you can't go into Taihu Lake, let alone go deep into the hinterland of the south of the Yangtze River. ”

Speaking to Wang Zhiren, Zhai Zhe was polite and casual, like an old friend for many years.

Wang Zhiren reciprocated the favor and said, "Obey!" ”

"General Wang, Deputy General Zhang, Chongming Island will be handed over to you, remember, don't ask for merit, but ask for no fault."

Zhang Mingzhen also got up and agreed, he raised troops into Songjiang, and was taken away by Zuo Ruo, and his face was a little unbearable.

Zhai Zhe turned to the anxious Jing Benche and said: "King Lu is in Shaoxing and is in urgent need of talents, there are too many people on Chongming Island, and he will gradually migrate to eastern Zhejiang. ”

It stands to reason that Zhai Zhe doesn't have this power, but when this sentence came out of his mouth, no one present dared to question it. Jing Benche's 2,000 soldiers will be handed over to Gu San Mazi, this person has been operating on Chongming Island for many years, and he has been deprived of power this time, and only by transferring him away can Zhai Zhe be reassured.

Zhang Huangyan recorded them one by one, wrote them into a notice, stamped them with the printout of General Pingyu, and posted them at the entrance of the county office.

Jing Benche packed up the softness, got on the warship early the next morning, and left with the first batch of people to eastern Zhejiang. Xia Yunyi and Xu Fuyuan were reluctant to go far and decided to stay in Chongming to contact the squires from all over Songjiang.

Zhai Zhe took a boat to inspect the people on the four islands of Chongming and stabilize the people's hearts.

Chen Huwei and Shen Tingyang led the sailors to Jingjiang Island.

Shen Tingyang was a civilian official, and letting Chen Huwei join forces with him to march into Jingzhou Island was actually to let Chen Huwei slowly annex his 2,000 Caoyun soldiers and more than 100 Caoyun warships. After Gu San Mazi and Gu Biao took charge of the soldiers of the original Chongming Island, there were nearly 4,000 soldiers stationed on Chongming Island.

These two sailors will be completely under the command of General Pingyu, and only Zhai Zhe's orders will be obeyed.

People are in Chongming, and their hearts are in eastern Zhejiang.

The main purpose of Zhai Zhe's trip is to see the true views of the ministers of eastern Zhejiang on the dispute between Tang and Lu, and also to see what kind of **** King Tang can come up with. Only by resolving the dispute between Tang and Lu can the Ming Dynasty move together forcefully.

In fact, he is already waiting for the price to sell, and it depends on whether Tang Wang can get on the road.

There are so many things that King Lu can come up with, many places in Daming have supported the King of Tang, the governor of Jiangxi has received the edict of the King of Tang, and the righteous army in southern Anhui has also made a table to the King of Tang, and he does not even dare to march there without authorization. Continuing to support King Lu will only cause chaos in the overall situation.

But he can't come forward to force King Lu to retire from prison, Shaoxing has a cabinet, and if Wenchen can be of one mind, Daming will not be like this now. Others are on Chongming Island, so they can just avoid this matter. Besides, with King Lu, he can bargain with King Tang.

This is the government and government, calculating each other and showing their glamorous image to the world.

Zhai Zhe sometimes felt that he was hypocritical, and he had embarked on this path since he took advantage of Lu Xiangsheng's fame.

But if this is not the case, how can the overall situation of the world be reversed? Most of the heroes died on the battlefield, and only the waist knife given to him by Lu Gong reminded him every moment that he could never forget his original intention!

Chongming Island is not peaceful.

Only three days later, when the sun had just risen, there was a lot of noise in front of the government office.

"We're going to see the general, we're going to see the general!"

A dozen people shouted and tried to rush in, but the road was blocked by soldiers at the door.

Fang Jin hurriedly entered the mansion and announced: "Hou Dong of Jiading County led a group of gentry to ask to see him at the door!" ”

Without seeing them, Zhai Zhe knew what these people were for, and his head was swollen, he must have urged him to enter Songjiang Mansion. These people are not afraid of death, but because they are not afraid of death, it is very difficult to deal with them now.

"You go and ask the gentlemen to sit down in the side hall, and I'll be there later."

Not long after Fang went in and out, it was quiet outside.

Zhai Zhe packed up, took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and then went to the side hall, no different from the battlefield.

As soon as he entered the door, Hou Yu walked up to him in a few big strides, "Please general, march into Songjiang Mansion." ”

"Don't worry, everyone!"

Before Zhai Zhe finished his sentence, Hou Tong knelt down, kowtowed, and said: "Li Chengdong is wantonly hunting and killing people in Jiading, although I didn't kill those people, but because I suffered a disaster, please save them." A dozen people knelt down.

I knew that this was the situation, and there was no good way to really meet Zhai Zhe.

"Ladies and gentlemen, don't I want to save the people of Daming?" Zhai Zhe shook his sleeves and sighed.

Hou Dong's eyes were red, and he blamed angrily, "There are forty or fifty thousand soldiers and horses on Chongming Island, don't you have the strength to fight against the Qing captives?" Is the general afraid of thieves like tigers? He made the old mistake of literati looking down on military generals, not to mention that he was angry.

Zhai Zhe shook his head speechlessly, there were only 15,000 people who could fight in the field on Chongming Island, and most of them were recruits. Wang Zhiren's soldiers and horses can still fight in the water, and they can only wave their flags and shout when they are put on the shore, but he can't say these words.

When he was asking questions, a lean middle-aged man stood up behind the gentry, coughed lightly, and sighed: "Old Mr. Hou is going to embarrass the general again, do you know how many prisoners Songjiang has now?" ”

The thin man snapped his fingers and calculated: "Bo Luo has only led 30,000 horses to aid Songjiang, Li Chengdong has more than 20,000 people, Liu Liangzuo has 30,000 people are besieging Jiangyin City, and Wu Shengzhao, the governor of Suzhou, is only a two-day march away from Songjiang. ”

Hou Yu turned around and reprimanded: "Zhao Yucheng, what do you mean by this?" Do you just watch those fellow villagers die under the sword of the Qing captive? ”

The thin man wept: "I am also from Songjiang, and my wife is still in Songjiang and her life and death are uncertain, but I am not afraid of no firewood." General Zhai will definitely be able to lead us to drive away the Qing captives and recover Jiangnan. ”

There was silence in the side hall, and the squires did not expect that there would be an opponent in their ranks. They are only condemned in their hearts because of the suffering of their fellow villagers, and Zhao Yucheng speaks as a victim, which is easier to get their approval.

"Mr. Hou, Zhai Zhe promises here that within three years, he will drive away the Qing Dynasty and restore Jiangnan!" Zhai Zhe was impassioned, echoing the thin man.

The thin man knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said, "I am willing to serve under the tent of the adults." ”

More than a dozen squires looked at each other, all of them took up, exchanged pleasantries for a while, and left embarrassedly.

Not long after the thin man left with the squires, he returned to the palace to ask for a meeting, and Fang Jin brought him in.

When the man saw Zhai Zhe, he bowed and saluted, and said, "Xiaosheng Zhao Yucheng, a native of Songjiang, the people and horses I just said are all truths, not lies. ”

"You're well-informed!"

Zhao Yucheng sneered: "A few days ago, Xiao Sheng went ashore with the soldiers on the island, and I inquired about the news, and I am most familiar with the three sects and nine streams in Songjiang Mansion. He had been preparing so carefully for so long, and he was even willing to venture ashore, just to show himself in front of Zhai Zhe. Zuo Ruo didn't know how to appreciate him, he could only take refuge in a bigger master.

Zhai Zhe nodded slightly and asked, "How many people did Li Chengdong kill in Jiading?" ”

"As far as I know, there are at least five or six thousand of them."

Zhai Zhe looked at this skinny Xiucai, his eyes flashing with a cobra-like light.

"You want to play for me?"
