The matter of the establishment of the governors of the five provinces was officially put on the agenda of the imperial court, and the rogues who had been hit in Shaanxi and Shanxi began to disperse their activities, some of them stayed in Shanxi, some of them entered Hanzhong Mansion in Shaanxi, some of them entered Henan, some of them entered Huguang, and some of them entered Sichuan. As a result, the ranks of the Liukou continued to grow, and the total number of people has exceeded 200,000, and all localities have suffered greatly.

Xu Guangqi had already established the post of governor of the five provinces, but the emperor was a little hesitant in terms of candidates, so he did not make up his mind for a long time, but now the shape of the court forces the imperial court to set up the post of governor of the five provinces, coordinate the forces of various places, and jointly exterminate the Liukou, otherwise the Liukou team will continue to grow and develop.

After the early dynasty, many civil and military ministers have recommended the trilateral governor Hong Chengchou to serve as the governor of the five provinces to lead the extermination of the Liukou, but the emperor did not agree, Hong Chengchou is familiar with the situation in Yansui, Ningxia, Shaanxi, it is precisely because of Hong Chengchou's efforts that the Liukou in Shaanxi and Shanxi have suffered a heavy blow.

The risk of recommending candidates is very large, if the person who is recommended suffers defeat, then the person who recommended him will also be impeached and investigated, Hong Chengchou has exterminated the Liukou in Shanxi and other places, and has achieved very good results, and there is no problem in serving as the governor of the five provinces, and it is also very safe, so the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty will not recommend other candidates, even the newly appointed cabinet chief assistant Wen Tiren, who recommended Hong Chengchou.

It was at this time that Xu Guangqi, who was ill, wrote a book and recommended Chen Qiyu, the imperial history of the right capital.

The emperor and Xu Guangqi have long discussed, the matter is in front of the eyes, the emperor finally made up his mind, promoted Chen Qiyu to the right of the military department Lang five provinces governor, in the holy decree, for Chen Qiyu's responsibilities, also made clear, focusing on coordinating Henan, Huguangshan, Shanxi and Sichuan and other places to exterminate the Liukou, as for Shaanxi, Ningxia, Yansui and other places to exterminate the Liukou, it is still the trilateral governor Hong Chengchou.

Chen Qiyu's appointment as the governor of the five provinces indicated that the imperial court had intensified its encirclement and suppression of the Liukou.

The emperor and most of the civil and military ministers in the court, at this time there was a fundamental change in their thinking, they used to think that the Liukou was forced by life, gathered a crowd to rebel, and the court was unable to relieve the victims, so they had a certain amount of guilt towards the Liukou, and thought that it was still to appease the main thing and to exterminate the supplement, but the continuous development and growth of the Liukou, as well as the killing of officials and the robbery of the place, made the court have no sympathy, and thought that the Liukou has become a major problem and must be completely eradicated, and the local peace will be restored.

As the governor of the five provinces, Chen Qiyu did not have time to accept the congratulations of his colleagues, and immediately rushed to Kaifeng in Henan Province to take office, and the governor's palace of the five provinces was located in Kaifeng, Henan, which happened to be in the middle of the country, which was convenient for coordination and command.

Chen Qiyu first got in touch with the governor of the three sides, Hong Chengchou sat in Pingyang Mansion in Shanxi, which is close to Kaifeng in Henan, the distance is not very far, after receiving Chen Qiyu's letter, Hong Chengchou explained to the general soldier Cao Wenzhao to temporarily assist in many things, and went to Kaifeng in person.

Governor-General's Mansions of the Five Provinces.

Chen Qiyu and Hong Chengchou finally met, the two had known each other before, Chen Qiyu had also exterminated the Liukou in Shaanxi, and now both of them are serving as the right attendant of the military department, and concurrently serve as the governor of the five provinces and the governor of the three sides.

After a brief greeting, the conversation between the two turned to the matter of exterminating the rogue.

There was a huge map on the table, and Chen Qiyu had already made some marks on it, and Hong Chengchou was familiar with these marks, these were the places where the rogue was active.

"Lord Hong, the old Liukou returned to Nanyang, Henan and other places, Luo Rucai Tunbing, Huguang, Xiangyang and other places, Zhang Xianzhong Tunbing in Kuizhou and Linxian in Sichuan, Li Zicheng Tunbing in Hanzhong, Shaanxi, and some of the Liukou are hovering in Pingyang Mansion and other places in Shanxi, these Liukou forces are scattered, if they can't gather the strength of all parties, I'm afraid it will be difficult to exterminate them in a short time."

"What Lord Chen said is that most of the Liukou have left Shaanxi and Shanxi, and are heading towards Henan, Huguang and Sichuan, if they can't unify their powers and form a joint force, the Liukou will take advantage of the loopholes in this, circling back and forth, and the governors of the provinces should not cross the border to exterminate the Liukou because of their duties, so that the Liukou have the best opportunity."

"What Lord Hong said is that my idea is to mobilize 100,000 troops from Huguang and Sichuan in Henan Province to exterminate the Liukou, no matter where the Liukou go, we must follow and exterminate the Liukou, and never leave an inch, so that the problem of the Liukou wandering around can be solved.

"Lord Chen is the governor of the five provinces, in charge of Shaanxi and Shanxi to exterminate the Liukou, if there is any arrangement, just ask."

"Well, I'm not welcome."

Chen Qiyu's finger pointed at Yansui Town.

"Zheng Xunrui, the governor of Yansui, the Zheng family army and the Yansui border army under his command, I heard that the combat effectiveness is very strong, Lord Hong is familiar with the situation of Yansui, can you let Lord Zheng mobilize some sergeants to join the army to exterminate the Liukou."

A look of distress appeared on Hong Chengchou's face.

"Lord Chen, you know, the mobilization of the border army, unless there is a holy decree of the emperor, otherwise it cannot be transferred at will, the border army has a heavy responsibility, the border army in the same place as Yansui in Ningxia has never been transferred, if it is because of the transfer of the Yulin border army, there is a danger in the border pass, you and I can hardly bear such a responsibility."

Chen Qiyu also sighed softly, Hong Chengchou said that the situation is real, Cao Wenzhao led 1,500 Guanning iron cavalry into the pass to exterminate the Liukou, that was the emperor's personal order, otherwise no one can be lightly transferred, about the Yulin border army and the Zheng family army, Chen Qiyu also mentioned it to the emperor, but the emperor did not express his position.

Chen Qiyu had already thought that the Zheng family army under the command of Zheng Xunrui had exterminated the Liukou Shenyi Kui without mud Zhang Cun Meng Zijin Liang Wang for his own use, as well as Gao Yingxiang, the king of Chuang, and killed four people, you must know that the Shen Yikui King and Gao Yingxiang are both famous leaders among the Liukou, with great influence and very strong strength.

It's a pity that Yulin is a border town, and the responsibilities are not ordinary, which makes Chen Qiyu sigh a little hopefully, in fact, he is also tentatively mentioning it to see what Hong Chengchou's attitude is, if he can dispatch the Zheng family army and the Yulin border army, Hong Chengchou, as the governor of the three sides, wouldn't he have done it a long time ago.

Hong Chengchou has the general soldier Cao Wenzhao under his command, as well as 1,500 Guanning iron cavalry from Liaodong, don't look at the number of Guanning iron cavalry is not much, but it has become the dream of the Liukou, anyone who fights with the Liukou, as long as the Guanning Iron Cavalry participates in the battle, the Liukou must be a large-scale rout, almost impossible to resist, Cao Wenzhao's command ability is also very good, he will not strike when the Liukou unite, but wait until the Liukou divide the troops, to strike and exterminate, so that the Liukou can do nothing.

It is precisely because of this that the Liukou, who gathered in Shanxi at the beginning, were forced to divide their troops and flow to various places in a short time, of course, this cannot be said to be all the credit of Guanning Tieqi and Cao Wenzhao, at least this is very important.

"Lord Hong, I am saying that the emperor has made up his mind that he must completely exterminate the Liukou and restore the peace of the five provinces, and you and I have a heavy responsibility, and we must not live up to the emperor's expectations."

"Obey Lord Chen's arrangement, as long as there is any need, I will definitely do my best."

In front of Chen Qiyu, Hong Chengchou does not need to be called a subordinate official, this is also because in the holy decree, the division of labor between the two is clear, one person is responsible for one piece, and the general coordinator is Chen Qiyu, that is to say, Hong Chengchou is not Chen Qiyu's subordinate.

Chen Qiyu mentioned Zheng Xunrui, the governor of Yansui, Hong Chengchou has thought about it a long time ago, but unfortunately he has no choice, Zheng Xunrui has an unusual background, the champion of the palace examination, the student of the second assistant of the cabinet Xu Guangqi, the grandson-in-law of the cabinet assistant Wen Zhenmeng, and when Zheng Xunrui was the prefect of Yan'an Prefecture, there was a special policy, Yan'an Prefecture and County were not responsible for supplying the grain and grass of the imperial army, at that time, Hong Chengchou was very annoyed, thinking that Zheng Xunrui was relying on power, and it would definitely be bad things after he became the prefect of Yan'an Prefecture, things that Hong Chengchou could not have expected happened one by one.

In particular, Zheng Xunrui's capture and beheading of the battle of Gao Yingxiang, the king of Chuang, gave Hong Chengchou a huge shock, at this time, he knew that this Zheng Xunrui is really not simple, any decision made by people is not casual, the imperial court decided to set up the post of governor of the five provinces, Hong Chengchou thinks that he is very likely to take office, if he really serves as the governor of the five provinces, he will definitely recommend Zheng Xunrui to be the governor of the three sides, although Zheng Xunrui is only nineteen years old, it seems too young.

Zheng Xunrui's Zheng Jiajun could not participate in the extermination of the Liukou, Hong Chengchou was also a little regretful, but the responsibilities of the border army were different, he was appointed as the governor of Yansui at the beginning, responsible for exterminating the Liukou, and he did not dare to mobilize the Yulin border army lightly.

Chen Qiyu's combat ideas are very clear, Hong Chengchou feels that as long as he follows this line of thought, the time for the Liukou to be destroyed is not far away, but there can not be too much deviation in the middle, you must know that the Liukou's ability to move is too strong, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will let them slip away.
