In the territory of Beizhili, which was controlled by the Qing court, Mao Weizhang naturally did not dare to ride south, so as not to attract the attention of the Qing court.

Even because Abatai, the king of Doluo County, was stationed in Baoding, and arranged heavy troops in the Cangzhou area to confront the First Corps of the Guards and the Ming Zhu Zhaoming Department, so in order to avoid being questioned by the officers and soldiers under the command of Abatai, Mao Weizhang of Jinyi Wei Baihu could only be diverted from Hejian Mansion to Shunde Mansion, and then entered the territory of Zhangde Mansion in Henan.

At this time, the northern part of Henan was still barren, bandits were rampant, wild wolves and wild dogs were everywhere, and most of the landlords and squires were built to protect themselves, and there was no government or army.

Even Mao Weizhang, a brocade guard, did not dare to travel alone, but gathered three horsemen under his command in Shunde Mansion to go south together, after all, in this kind of three-regardless area, it is very likely that someone who walks alone will be caught and cooked directly.

The people in the north are poor, coupled with the blockade of trade between the north and the south, not only lack of food but also lack of clothing, whether it is the Qing army or bandits, basically not only robbing people but also robbing people's clothes, and the starvation in the entire wilderness is almost unclothed.

The same is true for Mao Weizhang and several entourages, fortunately, they have martial arts and are all men in the prime of life, so although they are beggars, they will not even have anything to hide their shame.

Although the Qing army's Duoduo Department has been annihilated, Lu Zhenfei, a scholar of Dongge University, has also been appointed as the governor of Henan and the chief military officer at the behest of Zhu Youzhen, and has begun to recover the lost land in Henan and restore production in Henan.

But in fact, the Ming army led by Lu Zhenfei (mainly the Weisho troops) was mainly in the southern part of Henan, and did not recover the northern part of Henan.

Because although the northern part of Henan is now also a three-way street, it is north of the Yellow River and too close to the Qing army's heavy garrison, so there is no need to resume production for the time being.

That is to say, the actual control demarcation line between the Ming and Qing dynasties in Henan is the Yellow River as the dividing line, and the Yellow River has traversed the territory of Henan since its diversion, that is, the cities of Shunqing, Weihui, and Zhangde in Henan north of the Yellow River and the cities of Yuanwu, Yangwu, Fengqiu, and Yanjin in Kaifeng are still in the control area of the Qing court, while most of Kaifeng, Henan, Guide, Runing, Nanyang, and Ruzhou in the south of the Yellow River are in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

Mao Weizhang took three horsemen into Henan and barely entered the Ming control area after crossing the river in Kaifeng Mansion, but at this time Kaifeng Mansion was still a place of misery.

Fortunately, at this time, the governor Lu Zhenfei had already entered the territory of Kaifeng Mansion with the grain and grass of the officers and soldiers, and Mao Weizhang and others landed on the shore of Taojiadian.

At this time, there was only one fishing boat in the Taojiadian ferry port playing gongs: "There is an order for the road system, Jiannu was defeated by the official army, and the people in Henan immediately went to the local state and county yamen to register, His Majesty decreed, the fields of the Fu King and the King of Zhou, as well as the fields of the Qing officials and gentry and the fields of the ownerless will be re-assigned, and the first to arrive will be the best fields!" ”

Now that Henan has experienced several years of war, the population has long been sparse, so Zhu Youzhen's intention to divide the land to Lu Zhenfei is to distribute it according to the mouth rather than by household or Ding.

Adult men are given one ding, and one is one mouthful, so that is, as long as an individual, male or female, young or old, comes to register and receives an allotment of land.

It can also be seen that Henan at this time is sparsely populated after years of military disasters.

Just as the people in the mountainous areas will hide in the mountains as robbers in troubled times, the people along the Yellow River will naturally hide in the reeds to avoid being robbers, so as soon as the Ming government returns here, it is natural to take fishing boats to persuade the people to return to their hometowns between various rivers and ports.

One after another, many people who looked like savages came out of the swing, and when they saw that the outside world was gone, they were all very relieved and began to gather in the land of the state and county.

Mao Weizhang and others followed the returning refugees to Xuanwuwei, which is not far from the blockade, and this area was originally the Weisuo area, and most of the fields in the area were owned by officers, but now the officers and soldiers before Henan have already been killed and wounded, or fled south or become homeless bandits, so many of the fields in Xuanwuwei are mostly to be redivided.

Governor Lu Zhenfei set up a resettlement point in the territory of Xuanwuwei, and thousands of households under his command personally set up porridge sheds here, set up resettlement points for refugees who should be recalled to their hometowns, and at the same time counted the people who returned to their hometowns, began to divide the land, distribute grain and collected agricultural tools, and because of the need to resume production immediately, they did not distinguish whether their previous places of origin were local or foreign, and all were re-registered, and villages and towns were established.

Mao Weizhang and others looked back at the north bank of the Yellow River, there were still Qing army iron horses on the north bank of the Yellow River, the displaced people could not live in peace, enclosing land, and on the south bank had begun to restore the people's livelihood, dividing the land and land, and even the government also funded to encourage the people to hunt wild wolves and wild dogs, and bury the corpses of the open field, which made Mao Weizhang can't help but feel a sense of pride.

In the end, the Ming Dynasty to which he is loyal is more prosperous, and His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty is more sympathetic to the suffering of the people, and although the Hu people occupy the country, they only care about pleasure, where do they really think about the life and death of the people.

Mao Weizhang couldn't help but think so.

Kaifeng Mansion has been stationed in the city by the Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers, although it is still under military management, all the houses in the city are waiting to be sold and distributed, but Jinyi Wei is a special institution, at this time has re-set their own contact points in Kaifeng City, and Mao Weizhang and others found the sign of Jinyiwei contact point as soon as they entered Kaifeng City, and entered the contact area with the sign, and found Liu Wensheng, a thousand households of Jinyiwei.

"This is the flying fish suit, this is the embroidered spring knife, and this wrapped brown hat, put it on immediately, the horse has been arranged for you, this gold medal is taken, and then you can go straight into the city of Nanjing and the palace, and set off immediately after resting for the night, after entering the territory of Fengyang, do not let people see your pig's tail, now all over the country hate the Tartar to the bone, basically kill when you see it, you be careful yourself", Liu Wensheng said and said: "You go directly to Beijing to see Your Majesty's affairs, command the envoy over there, I have sent someone to convey it for you." ”

Mao Weizhang nodded, seeing that the people on his side were all with wide sleeves and hairpins, he felt very cordial, and when he galloped into Fengyang Mansion in a bright and symbolizing power-symbolizing flying fish suit, he couldn't help but burst into tears when he saw the bustling Ming gentry and people.

Drive!

As soon as Mao Weizhang threw the horsewhip, he led his people to gallop on the streets of Fengyang City.

All of a sudden, a torrential rain hit, and the bean-sized rain hit the trees in an instant.

And Mao Weizhang didn't care at all at this time, he still rode his horse wildly.

Mao Weizhang is a native of Beizhili, but at this moment, he doesn't know why, he always has a feeling of rushing home, and he can't wait to see His Majesty the Ming Emperor Zhu Youzhen as soon as possible.

It can really be said that he ran three hundred miles in the rain and arrived in Chuzhou City overnight.

And when he arrived in Chuzhou, when he saw the cavalry of the Guards rolling up smoke and dust from his side, he couldn't help but show a look of joy: "It turns out that my Ming Dynasty also has such an iron horse, why worry about the failure of the Northern Expedition in the future." ”

When Mao Weizhang entered Nanjing City, he looked at the bustling city, with red sleeves like clouds and fluttering clothes, and his mood became even more excited.
