"The criminal minister Yue Shenglong knocked on the Xia King Chitose, Chitose, Chitose!" On July 21 of the first year of Ming Baokang, Zheng Kezhang led his troops to arrive in Yicheng, Yue Shenglong led a group of troops to go out of the city for ten miles to greet him, and in the face of Zheng Kezang's royal flag, Yue Shenglong, who had already changed into a Ming costume and cut off the whip, fell to the ground to show his surrender to Zheng Kezhang and repent of his father's sins.

"Qing is Yue Shenglong, the former governor of Huguang?" Looking at someone Yue who was leaning down on his ears, Zheng Kezang, who was riding on a horse, nodded slightly. "Being able to get lost and return is a credit to the country, and the so-called criminal ministers don't need to mention it anymore, get up, let Lone see your appearance." Yue Shenglong complied with the order and got up, Zheng Kezhang looked him up and down, and exclaimed. "He's a sturdy man." Immediately, Zheng Kezhang put the horse whip in his hand on Yue Shenglong's shoulder. "Hand over your battalion head and go to Xiangyang with Gu!"

Although Yue Shenglong knew that his military power might not be able to be retained for a long time, Zheng Kezhang asked him to hand over the power as soon as he came, and he was naturally a little unhappy in his heart, but until now, he could still regret it, so he could only respond resignedly: "No!" ”

Zheng Kezhang smiled faintly, and then urged the horse to go, and the entire brigade quickly passed by the overwhelmed general of the new attached army.

Looking at the team that was leaving, Yuan Boxiong and other generals gathered around Yue Shenglong: "Junmen, this"

Before Yue Shenglong could answer, a rider separated from Zheng Kezang's team and turned back: "Yue Shenglong and others take the order!" ”

Although he expressed his dissatisfaction just now, in the face of Zheng Kezang's envoy, all the generals still knelt down one after another, and listened to the envoy's loud voice: "Cha Yue Shenglong has great achievements such as attaching himself, dedicating the city, capturing the city, and defeating the enemy. Yuan Boxiong, Fan Jinshan, Hu Naili, Ding Shiqi, Chang Dongdao, Song Hongping, Zuo Youxin and other battalion generals also have their own great achievements. There is another reward for each member below the battalion officer! ”

The former military attachés of the Green Battalion suddenly showed a surprised expression, and hurriedly said: "Ministers, thank you Xia Wang Tianen!" ”

"The king still has a message!" The messenger continued. "Why hasn't Yue Shenglong kept up, did he have to stop and wait for him!"

Yue Shenglong was suddenly excited, and immediately bowed again: "Don't dare!" ”

After Yue Shenglong got on the horse, he immediately said to everyone standing down: "Now that we are the king's courtiers, this military power is very hot, and you should hand it over immediately, otherwise it will become a way to take trouble, you adults are good to do it yourself, Yue Mou took the first step"

Zheng Kezhang traveled all the way north, and the order was issued like flowing water: "Privy Council member Cui Ping was appointed as the deputy chief soldier of Fujian, Zhou Zhenghe, the same secretary of the Privy Council, was appointed as the deputy chief soldier of Jiangxi, Yin Long, the commander of the third division of the Shenwu Army, was appointed as the deputy chief soldier of Guangdong, Ma Yiyuan, the commander of the third division of the Yongwei Army, was appointed as the deputy chief soldier of Huguang, and Wang Xinhua was appointed as the deputy chief soldier of Zhejiang." ”

Although they are all deputy commanders-in-chief, the deputy commanders of Cui, Zhou, Yin, and Wang are actually the original commanders-in-chief, but because the four provinces of Fujian, Jiangxi, Guangdong, and Zhejiang are already in the rear, and there are not many garrisons, they have been downgraded by one level in name. As for Ma Yiyuan's deputy commander-in-chief of Huguang, he was the real second-in-command, mainly responsible for the defense of Yichang and Sichuan.

"Transferred Cao Zhongying to the command of the Third Division of the Longwu Army, organized and trained the Fourth Division of the Longwu Army, the Fourth Division of the Yongwei Army, the Fifth Division of the Tiger Guard Army, and the Third Division of the Shooting Sound Army.

"Your Majesty," Zheng Kezhang had just entered Xiangyang, and Lin Sheng, the general soldier of Huguang, reported. "The Iron Cavalry Army and the Hussar Army have recovered the entire territory of Nanyang Mansion, and eliminated more than 10,000 reinforcements from the Qingzhou battalion in the west of Miyang, captured 40 cannons, which can be described as a complete victory, and also intercepted the dependents of the original Yichang Town in Tongbai." Lin Sheng paused when he said this, and then asked with some expectation. "Now that the Central Plains is empty, the ministers ask the king whether to continue the Northern Expedition."

Lin Sheng and others naturally wanted to attack Henan and the Central Plains in the north in one go, and achieve eternal achievements, so as to go down in history. However, the Privy Council's original plan was only to recover Huguang, and now it has been hastily expanded, and it is doubtful whether the logistical supply can support it.

"Intercepted the family members of Yichang Town, this is good news, you should sue sù Cao Zhongying immediately. However, the Qinling Mountains in the west of Nanyang Prefecture, the Funiu Mountain and the Bear's Ear Mountain in the northwest, and the Tongbai Mountain Range in the southeast, can be described as mountains and mountains, and it is difficult for the army to travel. Zheng Kezhang touched the short beard on his chin, obviously a little hesitant. Moreover, although there are many water systems in Henan Province, there are not many that are connected with the direction of Huguang, and this domain cannot use water transportation, so it is not appropriate to rush north. ”

Although it is close to the end of the summer collection, the Zheng army can fight the enemy because of the grain, and does not have to worry about the problem of military rations, but gunpowder and the like always have to rely on the rear transportation, plus Zheng Kezhang has always been worried about encountering the opponent's superior cavalry after entering the plains, so he is a little cautious about the large-scale northern expedition. But the first battle of Huguang swept away more than 100,000 Qing troops, and the hinterland of the Central Plains was empty.

So Zheng Kezang thought about it for a while, and decided: "There are a total of fourteen divisions in Huguang alone, and before entering Xiangyang, he ordered to train four more divisions with the new annexed army, that is, eighteen, at least two of the Maqing Department on the first line of Yichang, and two of Xiangyang should be left, Nanyang already has two cavalry divisions, and the remaining twelve will be brought by Qing himself." ”

Since there is no map of Henan, Zheng Kezhang simply explained: "In this battle of Henan, I don't want to occupy more land, but only to shoot Yangbo on the basis of keeping the land of Nanyang, plunder Henan as much as possible, obtain population, destroy Henan's economy, shake the foundation of the Qing Dynasty, and lay the foundation for the overall situation of the Northern Expedition in the future." ”

Zheng Kezhang said to Lin Sheng, who frowned: "In the past, how could Dongyu grow stronger, it was nothing more than that the old slaves first plundered Liaodong, and then Hong Tai broke the pass and plundered Zhili and Shandong, so as to obtain a large number of people, and only then did he lay the foundation for entering the customs in the future. The same was true in Fujian, Zhejiang, and Guangdong, so that half of the rivers and mountains were recovered today, so it is the same today.

Zheng Kezhang continued with a stern expression: "Hubei and Hunan have been fighting for many years and have been ruined for a long time, although the landless people in Fujian, Guangdong, and Jiangxi provinces are really lonely, but there are still shortcomings, so this time the Qing and others must at least take back 200,000 people for their own domain!" Of course, the reclamation is huge, and it is best to take the summer grain together. ”

Lin Sheng's face was solemn, and he lowered his head and thought about it: "The king's intention, the minister has already understood, but the soldier is a noble god, once the Qing Lu reacts, the army gathers, and it will be difficult for the domain to realize the plunder, so the minister asked the king to suspend the inspection of the new annex army and expand the new division. ”

"Yes!" Lin Sheng was reasonable, Zheng Kezhang would not disagree, so Lin Sheng immediately retreated to prepare, but as soon as Lin Sheng left, Zheng Kezhang sneered. "The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, and it depends on what tricks you have to wait." Zheng Kezang's words were quite damning, but the newspaper he was holding in his hand clearly wrote that Mao Hongyan, the general soldier of Guizhou, arbitrarily accepted the surrender of the Qing army in Chongqing Town, and then contacted the news that He Qian, the general soldier of Guangxi, would jointly attack Yunnan, which could not help but make Zheng Kezhang a little annoyed. "One by one, cut first and then play, depending on what is lonely!" Of course, for the sake of victory, Zheng Kezhang can not worry about it for the time being, but this account will be settled sooner or later. "Someone came, spread the will of the orphan, and the shogunate moved to Wuchang."

The shogunate moved to Wuchang, because there was no major war on the Jiangbei and Huainan lines, and the next major battles were in the southwest, either into Sichuan or Henan, and they had to be commanded nearby. Moreover, the main force of Zheng's army moved westward, and Jianghuai, Jiangnan, and Zhejiang combined were only 15 divisions, while Lin Sheng alone had 14 divisions, and Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Hunan provinces had 13 divisions, and the strength was far above the direct command of the central government.

"The flood Gongzhu came back to serve as the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, and the Hunan General Army was promoted by Zhao Huang, the commander of the Second Division of the Armed Guards." Zheng Kezhang continued to adjust the personnel layout, replacing these old men and horses who were complacent and accomplished with the Mesozoic Era. "He Qian transferred to the Yunnan General Army, and the First Division of the Longwu Army commanded Kuching as the Guangxi General Army"

The news of Zheng Jun's victory in Huguang spread to the surroundings like a shock wave, and the 6 prefectures of An'an announced the change of banners at the first time, and Yichang, Changyang, Yidu County, Yuanxian, Guizhou (Zigui), Badong, Xingshan, etc., also announced their attachment under the front of Zheng Jun's troops, and Hubei Shizhou Wei, which was sandwiched between the "Ming" army and Zheng Jun in eastern Sichuan, after a short period of weighing, subordinate Datian Qianhu and the two Xuanfu Division, the Fourth Xuanfu Division, the Nine Anfu Division, the 26th Chief Official, and the Santuzhou all declared their vassals to Zheng Kezang. Zheng Kezhang immediately announced that Shizhou Wei would be changed to Enshi Mansion, and Datian Qianhu would be Xianfeng County, and the local Tusi and Tuguan would remain as before.

On 25 July, Zheng Kezhang sent a small force to trace along the Han River, and when the news broke, local officials in Zhushan, Zhuyu, and Fangxian fled one after another, while the counties of Baokang, Nanzhang, Yunxian, Yunxi, and Shangjin, which were relatively close to each other, sent envoys to contact Toucheng. The Zheng army was not to blame for the past in these surrendered counties, but strictly ordered them to hunt down the fleeing Qing army. So the counties were ordered to guard the road with the township bravery, check the exchanges, and actually caught Guo Shijie and Kazhu and his party in one fell swoop, and even showed the whereabouts of Nertu, but Nertu had three hundred guards in his hands, although he was vulnerable to Zheng Jun, but he was able to deal with the other party, and every time Zheng Jun heard the news, Nertu and his party had already disappeared.

Although Nertu was not caught, it was surrounded many times, so that a cadre of people and others had to run to the more remote mountains and old forests, so they took a detour not to mention, along the way to overcome thorns and thorns, food and drink, and the hardships can not be discussed one by one. Zhu Duna and more than 50 Manchurian guards died in the middle of the road due to water and soil adaptation, and more than 100 people disappeared into the reckless mountains because they were left behind, and when they finally walked out of the mountains to find people, a group of people had become ragged people called Huazi and starving people who could fall to the ground at any time and anywhere
