In fact, Hong Lei's suggestion is that only the reintegration of the 6th Military Department into the Military Department is worthy of affirmation, but whether it is the re-establishment of the three departments of rites, officials, and punishment, or the renaming of the Ministry of Posts and Communications, and the Ministry of Water Resources, it shows that the old ministers in the domain are forcing Zheng Kezang to the palace, and Zheng Kezhang is obviously deeply wary of this. Fortunately, the central organization of Zheng Fan has been basically completed, except for a few measures such as the renaming of the two ministries of Yantie and Duzhi, and the establishment of the Hanlin Academy and the Zhan Shifu, there is not much room for actual adjustment, and Zheng Kezhang firmly grasps the military power, so there is also not much room for the old ministers to be difficult.

Of course, in order to completely dispel the idea that the important ministers in the domain are eager for quick success, they also need to let them see that Zheng Fan has room for improvement in addition to keeping half of the south of the Yangtze River, so the current Jingxiang war is very important.

Therefore, on the third day after he entered Wuchang, Zheng Kezhang dispatched two divisions of troops into Hanyang.

"By the order of the King of Xia." After taking over the defense of Hanyang City and the key points in the city, Feng Hui, the commander of the Second Division of the Shooting Army, who commanded these two divisions, summoned Cui Ping's headquarters in the name of spot checks. "The following arrangements are now made for the soldiers in Hanyang City." Feng Hui swept the overwhelmed Cui Bu and announced in a deep voice. "The 1st Brigade of the 3rd Division of the former Shenwu Army and the 1st Brigade of the 2nd Division of the Shooting Army were transferred and subordinated, the 2nd Brigade of the 3rd Division of the former Shenwu Army was transferred and subordinated to the 2nd Brigade of the 3rd Division of the Tiger Guard Army, and the 3rd Brigade of the 3rd Division of the 3rd Division of the former Shenwu Army was transferred and subordinated to the 3rd Brigade of the 2nd Division of the Jiangnan Dingsheng Army; Su Boping, the commander of the 3rd Division of the former Shenwu Army, and Tu Qing, the commander of the 2nd Division of the Tiger Wing Army, were transferred to the position; Each brigade of the Third Division of the former Shenwu Army will be retained in its original position, and the brigade will be divided into other divisions."

As soon as these words came out, the Cui Department present was in an uproar, but in the face of the Shenwu Army and the Tiger Guard Army, Cui Bu, who had less than 6,000 people left, did not dare to do it at all, and what was worse was that before Feng Hui led his troops into Hanyang, Cui Ping, Su Boping and all the sub-commanders had been summoned by Zheng Kezhang to cross the river to discuss matters, so that no one in the army presided over it, so they had to watch the merger and transfer of the troops after being disarmed by Zheng Jun.

The same order was also given to the former superintendent Xingyuan, and now the general Xingyuan was recruited again, looking at the purple face of Cui Ping and the following people, Zheng Kezang grinned with his teeth: "Qing and others don't have to be suspicious, Lone is not to settle accounts after the autumn, but Qing and others are all Lone's subordinates, and the order is one case, and the other is also one case of compiling the team's combat strength." ”

People are swordsmen and I am fish and meat, and the predecessor of Cui Bu was Liu Ning'anbu, who participated in the Nanjing Rebellion, thinking that Zheng Kezhang might be duplicitous, Cui Ping had to accept Zheng Kezang's arrangement with a pale face, and for the seemingly obedient appearance of several people, Zheng Kezhang comforted: "Don't be worried, as long as you are still loyal, you will not give him a future." ”

So, then Cui Ping was naturally awarded the title of Jingbei Earl, and Su Boping was also awarded the title of commander. It's just that Cui Ping's position as deputy chief of Huguang was subsequently replaced by Feng Hui, and he himself was appointed as the Privy Councillor of the Privy Council and the Privy Council Confidant of Huguangxing, and continued to advise Zheng Kezang on the march under the condition of reluctance.

Cui Ping's encounter frightened Wang Xinhua who was present at the same time, and at the moment when Zheng Kezang's eyes came over, Wang Xinhua stiffened and couldn't speak, but he couldn't open his mouth, it didn't mean that Zheng Kezhang would let him go: "Wang Qing, although your department has been organized into three divisions, its combat effectiveness has not improved, so it is better to mix it with various departments." ”

"Minister," Wang Xinhua wanted to defend but had nothing to say, Zheng Kezhang said it well, the combat power of the Wang Department has always been weak, and now he is under Zheng Kezang's control, of course, he no longer dares to have the idea of standing on his own. "The ministers obey the king's order, so they write down the warrant and tell their subordinates to follow the king's order and reorganize."

"Good." Zheng Kezhang nodded at Wang Xinhua. "It is worthy of being a lonely Huguang general soldier, so when the reorganization is carried out, I will temporarily stay in Jiangnan to inspect the drills and training of various departments, and when the reorganization is completed, I will cross the river to preside over military affairs." Looking at Wang Xinhua, who was a little scared, Zheng Kezhang made a sneer. "I won't give it to you if the beautiful woman is drunk, so I won't have to fall into your fighting spirit."

In this way, according to Zheng Kezang's intentions, a large-scale transfer and reorganization of the two departments of Wang and Cui began, and the three officers of the brigade, regiment, and sentry of the two divisions were either scattered to the various departments of the Zheng army or sent to continue their studies in martial arts, and those who could not accept the discipline of the Zheng army were sent to ships to Cam Ranh, Xiboni and Labuan in the name of transfer. Of course, annexation is only a means, and the next large-scale military training is Zheng Kezang's goal, so when the Qing army thought that Zheng Kezang's arrival meant that a large-scale offensive was about to begin, a training aimed at improving the combat strength of the Zheng army began vigorously.

Zheng Kezhang showed a lot of problems during the whole training, and the brunt of it was the equipment problem. Although the previous Military Affairs Department, the current 6th Military Department and the Military Department also allocated a lot of guns to Wang and Cui, but the two departments that belonged to the Hou Niang still had a lot of equipment that was self-made or simply used in the equipment of the Qing Army, which was very different from that used by the Zheng Army.

To this end, the second thing Zheng Kezhang had to do was to change the clothes of these four divisions. However, it is easy to replace the small number of divisions and brigades, but it is a troublesome thing to widely replace the rifle guns - the establishment of the Zheng army is two infantry teams and a white soldier team to form a sentry, but the Zheng army has swelled from the initial tens of thousands to nearly 300,000 today, and the total strength has expanded seven or eight times in four years. Therefore, most of the division-level units of the Zheng Army did not have the number of infantry guns, let alone re-equip all the four "new" divisions - Zheng Kezhang had to finally choose to reverse the ratio of white soldiers and infantry in these four divisions, so he barely managed to get together the equipment.

Originally, I thought that this would be fine, but the experience of the Korean War was presented to Zheng Kezhang again. According to the experience summed up by the Long Xiang Army, the regimental level is not equipped with artillery and the combat capability is insufficient. For this reason, Zheng Kezhang deliberately promoted the whole army and organized an artillery team equipped with a two-inch gun at the regimental level. Of course, in order to enhance the firepower of the various units in Huguang as much as possible, the divisions of the Jiangnan Reserve could only be transferred to Huguang with artillery attached to them. But even so, the training time was extended.

At this time, the Qing army, which was waiting for Zheng Jun not to come, sent out a wide range of cavalry scouts to try to figure out what Zheng Jun was doing. However, whether it was the endless flow of transport fleets on the Yangtze River or the training of the Zheng army, the sound of guns and cannons resounded day and night caused great misunderstanding to the Qing army, so the general of Zhengnan, Nerfo and Shanahai, continued to sit and watch until the news of Yungui came.

On 13 April, while Zheng Kezhang was still on his way to Wuchang, he ordered Hunan and Guangxi to march to Guizhou. Since the Qing army had already burned Guizhou to the ground when it suppressed the uprising of the anti-Qing forces in Yunnan and Guizhou, the Qing army, which could only rely on the supply of food from central Sichuan, had no strength to maintain a long supply line.

Therefore, when Mao Hongyan, the commander-in-chief of Hunan, led six divisions of Zheng Army from Pingxiwei (Yuping) in Hunan to Guizhou, conquered Sipingfu (Cen Gong) and Zhenyuanfu all the way, and went straight to Maha Prefecture (Majiang), which was placed by the important town of Junfu in eastern Qiandong, the Qing army Guzhou Town and Hunan Fubiao and other troops were defeated and retreated, and fled to Guiyang in a swarm.

After Qiandong changed hands, the lawsuits of the governors and county magistrates of southern Qiannan also lost their sincerity to Zheng Jun, and as a result, in just over 20 days, half of Guizhou fell into the hands of Zheng Fan. In view of the state of emergency in Guizhou, Wu Yan, the governor of Sichuan, immediately sent nearly 10,000 people from the left battalion of the governor, the right battalion of the biao, and the towns of Chongqing and Zunyi to urgently reinforce Guiyang, and then the Zheng army formed a confrontation on the front line of Guiding. However, the Yunnan side, which was supposed to send reinforcements, was forced to stay on the Qujing front line and did not dare to act rashly because of the Zheng army's attack in Youjiang and other places in Guangxi, thus laying the groundwork for the defeat of the Qing army in Guizhou in a certain sense.

After getting the news of Yungui, Neer, who thought he understood Zheng Kezang's plot to appear in Wuchang, couldn't help it, and he immediately drove the three armies to re-approach the Huangpi line, trying to force Zheng Kezhang and his cavalry brigade to fight a decisive battle in the field.

"Wang Xinhua obeys orders!" Zheng Kezang, who was holding the arrow, ordered. "Qing and lead the first division of the Guangwei Army, the third division of the Shenwu Army, and the second division of the Dingsheng Army to defend Huangpi, Xishui, and Luotian, so as not to let the Qing prisoners cross Bahe and disturb my hinterland." Wang Xinhua took the order and left, and Zheng Kezhang picked up another token. "Feng Hui, you and lead the second division of the Sound Army to stay in Hanyang, for the rear of the army, don't cut off our army's food route." Waiting for Feng Hui to take the arrow and retreat, Zheng Kezhang raised the third token. "Yin Long!" The First Division of the Hussars commanded Yin Mintong's cousin, the Second Division of the Shenwu Army. "You lead the headquarters to be responsible for garrisoning Wuchang and Ezhou."

Waiting for Yin Long to retreat aside, Zheng Kezhang raised the fourth token: "Huang Chuxu obeys!" ”

Huang Chuxu, the commander of the Yangtze River Fleet, quickly stood in front of Zheng Kezang, and listened to Zheng Kezang's order: "The Yangtze River Fleet has a heavy responsibility on its shoulders, not only to protect the shipping line from Wuchang to Jiujiang, but also to ensure that the inspection between Dongting Lake and Wuchang is uninterrupted, and it is also necessary to break into the Han River, cut off the Qing army on both sides of the strait and make a posture of coercing Xiangyang. ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured." Huang Chuxu swore a promise. "Today, the Yangtze River Fleet has 126 large and small red single boats, more than 600 large and small artillery pieces on board, and 8,000 water athletes, which will definitely live up to the trust of the Lord." Speaking of this, Huang Chuxu made a military order. "A number of Tartars have crossed the Yangtze River and disturbed the water transport, and the ministers are willing to be dealt with by military law; If the Han River cannot be cut off and the Qing prisoners on both sides of the strait can travel freely, the minister is also willing to accept military law. ”

"There is no joke in the army." Looking at Huang Chuxu's confident face, Zheng Kezhang nodded quietly. "Let's do it, I'll see." After Huang Chuxu gave the salute, he directly withdrew from the big tent, and Zheng Kezhang stood up at this moment. "Qingyu forced me to fight a decisive battle, lonely and not acting according to their thoughts, Zhuqing, and go back to the divisions to rectify, tomorrow swear to open the division, let him come a few ways, I will go all the way, and it is time for Qingyu to taste the old slave's own tactics!"
