In fact, there is another advantage to attacking the capital now, that is, the grain is still in the warehouse!

There is never a substance in this world that has disappeared for no reason, as long as it once existed, then now it is gone, either it has transformed into another form of existence, or most of it has gone to one place.

The area north of the Yangtze River did not have large-scale drought or insect disasters last year, and in addition to the slaughter year after year, the total population was decreasing.

Human life can disappear, but the land cannot disappear out of thin air, and the production of the land cannot disappear.

If the Han and Tang cliques had not occupied the land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and completely cut off the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, then the Tatar bandit clique would not have increased their efforts to loot grain, and built grain depots everywhere, especially in Tongzhou.

As a result, they devised a method of limiting the per capita ration of each person to protect themselves and their armies.

People north of the Yangtze River are still alive, but it's a fragile balance.

If it drags on any longer, if there is a slight problem with this year's summer and autumn grains, then a large-scale famine will fall from the sky!

This fragile balance cannot withstand the shaking of a storm!

In this way, the security department of the Hantang Group set the time for the attack in August, and after the first batch of summer grain was harvested, they temporarily let them increase the grain reserves in the northern region by themselves!

Of course, the power to distribute grain is still in the hands of the Tartar bandits, but as long as there is a war, it is known whose hands the distribution power is ultimately in.

In this way, the time is about two months away.

The rest of the preparation is technical details, not major issues.

Even, there is a chance to train another batch of new team members, if you add the Zheng family group's troops, the difficulty of personnel is not too big.

The lights in the security department of Hantang Group are bright, and everyone is calculating and making plans.

It is believed that soon, a plan that is far larger than the Guangzhou City Action Plan will be released.

When the Han and Tang groups were making plans against the Tartar bandit group, they were also studying the Han and Tang pirate groups, and they were moving far faster than them.

At noon in July, 1654, a small detachment of the Haian Coastal Defense Patrol Detachment was patrolling north of the Taiwan Strait.

At this time, the Taiwan Strait has entered a period of wind and waves, okay, the Hantang Group has a weather radar, if there is a strong storm, it is not suitable to go to sea, and a special notice will be sent to them, if there is no notice, then it will patrol normally.

The squad consisted of two boats, both propeller-type sailboats, weighing fifty tons, with sailors and maritime security officers, each with a total of fifteen men, and a second-generation Gatling machine gun in the bow.

The motive power of this ship is a 30-horsepower pot camel engine, which can reach a speed of 20 knots per hour if it is at the positive limit of sailing smoothly and sailing; If the negative limit conditions against the wind and water are carried out, the speed can reach two knots per hour.

This patrol boat is actually a stereotyped product, it is adaptable and can be eaten in the sea, rivers, rivers and lakes, because its rudder depth can be adjusted to adapt to different water areas.

It can even act as a tugboat for barge fleets.

In short, it is resistant, durable, and versatile.

At noon on this day, the observers on the patrol ship suddenly saw a sneaky fleet in the binoculars!

And openly under the banner of Qing!

The enemy is coming?!

The two patrol boats raised their sails and swooped down on the fleet by the southeast monsoon, and they made two white courses on the sea!!

The fleet with the Qing flag is now struggling to zigzag against the wind.

The Gatling gun in the bow of the ship was unclothed, and the three gunners quickly attached metal chains to the machine gun, quickly checking the machine gun's readiness.

This is the second generation of three-barreled all-metal machine guns, the specific data will be introduced later.

The flotilla with the flag of the Qing Dynasty was openly dispatched by the Tartar bandit group, and it was a large negotiation team.

The eldest brother who led the negotiation was Chen Mingxia, a scholar.

Chen Mingxia, a native of Piaoyang, Jiangsu, was famous for his literary name when he was young, and he was a famous person of the Fushe Society.

In the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, that is, in the examination of 1643, he ranked first among the four hundred jinshi, and won the third place in the palace examination.

On the eve of the Jiashen Rebellion, Chen Mingxia met with Emperor Chongzhen and suggested that Shandong volunteers be summoned to rescue the Beijing Division.

On the day Li Zicheng's Dashun army invaded Beijing, Chen Mingxia hanged himself, but was rescued by his family.

After Niu Jinxing, an official under Li Zicheng, ordered the recruitment of Ming Dynasty officials, Chen Mingxia went into hiding, and was soon reported, and was finally captured by the Dashun army.

The person in charge of interrogating Chen Mingxia was a Shanxi Xiucai surnamed Wang, who happened to know Chen Mingxia, so he strongly persuaded Chen Mingxia to join the Dashun regime.

After Chen Mingxia failed to escape, he finally surrendered to Li Zicheng.

Soon after, he found another opportunity to flee to his hometown in the south.

Because the Southern Ming court at that time was arresting the Ming Dynasty officials who had surrendered to Li Zicheng, Chen Mingxia was forced to flee again, and after several tosses, Chen Mingxia finally went to Hebei Daimyo, where he met Cheng Kegong in the same year.

Cheng Kegong had just accepted the recruitment of the Tatar bandit group at that time, so he recommended Chen Mingxia to the Tatar bandit group.

In the first month of 1646, Chen Mingxia came out of the Qing court and has been on the rise ever since.

There are many people in the south who are pushed by his people, and they are jealous of the north, and they are inevitably involved in fierce party struggles from the beginning of their careers.

As mentioned above, this was the period of fierce struggle among the intellectuals in the north and south of the Ming Dynasty within the Tatar bandit group.

In the past, Chen Mingxia University Scholar and Hong Chengchou University Scholar were in the limelight, and for a while, the southern faction was in the limelight. At that time, Chen Mingxia also colluded with some Tartar nobles to suppress the northern faction!

For example, Feng Xuan, Liu Zhengzong and other ministers of the northern faction naturally did not have a good life, especially Feng Xuan, who basically lived in the impeachment of the southern minister, otherwise his friend Sun Zhiqi could not have been impeached because of a small matter, dismissed from office and went home, and died in Shandong.

Truth be told, the Tartar bandit clique loves the infighting of these literati, really.

The infighting of the Tartar bandit group is not at the level of these literati, what is the death of the whole family?! What is brotherhood?!

So looking at their infighting, the people of the Tartar bandit group are all happy with knives.

But it's too much!

At that time, the people of the northern faction were gone, and people who jumped into the sea and hanged themselves began to appear.

The regent at the time, Dolgon, watched them perform with a smile, and after weighing the pros and cons, he openly supported Feng Xuan's northern faction, said a few words, and gave them a few likes, so that they came to life and saw hope.

Hope doesn't matter if there is, it doesn't matter if there is nothing, as long as the master squeaks, don't just look at your eyes and don't speak, I will have hope.

Of course, the regent Dolgon did not disparage the southern ministers, and ostensibly took an impartial attitude towards the struggle between the north and the south.

Finally, in 1654, Liu Zhengzong, another representative of the northern faction, suddenly made a difficult move and began to impeach the head of the southern faction, Chen Mingxia, a scholar, whose origin was a set of Ming Dynasty clothes.

The Shunzhi puppet emperor of the Tartar bandit group liked Ming style clothing, often wore Ming Dynasty crowns and imperial robes in the palace, and was complacent about the mirror, thinking that it was much stronger than Tartar clothing.

In February 1654, the Shunzhi puppet emperor of the Tartar bandit group took the Ming Dynasty court clothes directly from the inner court to the inner courtyard on a whim, showing and showing off to the ministers, saying, look at how beautiful this clothing is.

The expression of the Shunzhi puppet emperor of the Tartar bandit group at that time was very sincere, and all the ministers were blindfolded - but the master is not capricious, who is capricious?

If others dare to do this, is the death of the whole family considered light??

At this time, in order to cater to the emperor, some ministers said yes again and again, and the puppet emperor of Shunzhi, the Tatar bandit group, was also smiling at that time, and he looked very satisfied.

Chen Mingxia felt that the opportunity had come, and sighed for a while, and said to my old friend who used to drink and have fun together: "As long as you keep your hair and redress your clothes, the world will be peaceful!"

Chen Mingxia University Scholar means that he has won the world, so why bother making a fuss about his hair and clothes? You see that so much resistance has been provoked in vain, master, it is not worth it.

Scholar Chen Mingxia is indeed kind-hearted, and he is also thinking about his master.

However, one of the reasons why the people of the Tartar bandit group dared to laugh at the former Ming officials that they had to rely on was that they had never understood what a friend was and what an enemy was, and this was up to the master, and you couldn't mess around!

Wen Death Admonition, the Ming set of martial arts and death wars, you quickly put it away!

Whether you admonish or argue, or have ulterior motives, it is up to the master to decide!

Do you want to stand on the highest ground of morality?

You're blind -- there's no morality here, there's only survival --

In fact, the master hates that his subordinates have friends the most.

Especially after the power of the villain Dolgon has just been eliminated, whoever has a good life in the Dolgon era will be unlucky!

Shi Ning, the University of the National History of the Inner Hanlin Academy, finished my participation in the Tartar bandit group much earlier than him, and he immediately made the right choice, inform, inform!

If the master needs to, a subordinate sues a general for having a grudge against the Tartar bandit group, and the master will definitely believe it.

He immediately colluded with Liu Zhengzong, who had a deep grudge against Chen Mingxia, at the same time.

The main charges of impeachment of Chen Mingxia for "forming a party and harboring treachery, and the situation is a huge test", and the main charges are "advocating the restoration of the crown uniform, altering the edict, forming a party for personal gain, accepting bribes according to the situation, and rampaging the son", etc., the core of which is that Chen Mingxia regards "keeping his hair and recovering his clothes" as the "first priority", claiming that it is the key to "peace in the world", and it is in the name of wide clothes and belts, changing the Qing Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, and "planning to weaken our country"!

In this way, Chen Mingxia is seriously suspected of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, and may also collude with hostile forces!

The Shunzhi puppet emperor of the Tartar bandit group immediately attached great importance to the situation, and ordered the officials of the Inner Third Yuan, Jiuqing, Kedao, Zhan Shi and other officials to interrogate Chen Mingxia one by one outside the noon gate and convict him heavily.

Chen Mingxia refuted on the basis of reason during the trial, and Liu Yumo and Chen Bingyi, the imperial historian, tried their best to defend him in the case of the criminal department.

The two sides were at loggerheads for a while.

Not to mention that there are always too many goods, the Shunzhi puppet emperor of the Tartar bandit group who was secretly observing on the noon gate tower was greatly annoyed when he saw this scene, and immediately summoned Liu Yumo and Chen Bingyi, reprimanded them, and immediately dismissed them.

So everyone understands, what is this going to do, don't you understand?

This must be wanting the life of Chen Mingxia University, and he wants to clean up the southern faction!

Later, the personnel of the Criminal Department had just convicted him of the three major crimes of forming a party and disrupting the government, discussing big plans in vain, and attempting to restore his sight, and had just sentenced him to death.

But at this time, the scholar of Hong Chengchou and the king of Pingnan Shang Kexi arrived one after another, and the puppet emperor of Shunzhi, the Tartar bandit group, immediately stopped the sentence against Liu Mingxia!

The southern faction has two goods, and the northern faction has the same thing!

When Liu Zhengzong, Feng Xuan, and other northern ministers saw that Liu Mingxia had all gone in, they had a good opportunity, and in order to further eradicate dissidents, they went out one after another to impeach 41 ministers from the south on the charges of Chen Mingxia's "relatives" and "henchmen," further adding fuel to the fire.

For a time, the southern ministers felt that a catastrophe was coming, and the people were panicked, and some even committed suicide by taking poison.

As soon as I saw Liu Mingxia's sentence stopped, I immediately shut up, didn't participate in anything with the ministers in the north, and went to the Qinglou all day long, or I went to the temple to make a wish or something.

In order to stabilize the situation, the Shunzhi puppet emperor of the Tartar bandit group had to personally come forward to warn Feng Xuan, and almost said bluntly, shut up for me!

Feng Xuan didn't dare to make waves anymore, and this big storm subsided.

It was these two internal letters that allowed Liu Mingxia to live and come to Taiwan to serve as an ambassador for negotiations.

Thanks to the support of the Golden Alliance leaders guozhiyin, cmd19764, Shen Leng Wu, Yue Xiao, and Qing 1 color.

I can't afford to shout for monthly ticket support.
