Chapter 568: Huang Zongxi Goes Out of the Mountain
Another advantage of Zhejiang people being good at doing business is that the news is exchanged faster than that of inland provinces.
When the Hangzhou area knew that there was an overseas gang of giant thieves, a pirate group claiming to be the Hantang Group, they actually occupied Taizhou City, and I heard that they were still preparing to occupy it for a long time!
Many civilians in Hangzhou City also have some beliefs.
Originally, those Tartar officers and soldiers were very leisurely and not in a hurry, and Hangzhou was originally a paradise on earth, but recently, they suddenly walked around in a hurry, and their expressions became extremely strict, and they asked for more things...... I'm afraid this news is true.
There are also rumors that they drove the boat ashore, and even sailed to the county seat under the rule of Taizhou Prefecture!
I heard that they exempted the local people from taxes for half a year-
I heard that they don't care about the people's braids—
I heard that—
Taizhou to Hangzhou is only more than 500 miles away, and all kinds of gossip are spreading everywhere-
Perhaps in the last days, all kinds of rumors are faster than horses' legs—
The big leaders of the Tartar bandit group in the Hangzhou area, the general of Pingnan, Xinxuan, and the king of the county, Doni, are now all wooden, and their hearts are so painful that they can't breathe.
10 10,000↙ horses, a government city, and thousands of warships, all wiped out in one battle?!
Several of his subordinates, Baylor's eyes were red, and they took turns questioning the people who had fled to deliver the letters, and several Gushan also slapped the table and shouted.
This qiē news is true!
But the content and process are just too incredible -
In the military meeting they invited, the general of Pingnan, Shin Xuan, and the king of the county, Doni, just said lightly: "*&......%¥%......"
Everyone hurriedly nodded in approval, this is a battle to the death, and everyone has no way out.
Pingnan General Shin Xuan and Jun Wang Doni are Aixin Jueluo?? The first son of Duoduo.
His father loves Xinjueluo?? Duoduo has made countless contributions in his life, he participated in the Battle of Songjin, won a great victory, captured Hong Chengchou alive, and forced the ancestor to live a great life.
General Yiding entered the pass from Dolgon and defeated Li Zicheng's army.
The swirling division broke Yangzhou and killed Shi Kefa. Went down to the south of the Yangtze River and captured the king of Nanming Fu, the prince of Jin and Shuodeyu.
It was also extremely beautiful when he died.
He contracted smallpox and died at the age of 36. Dolgon was in Shanxi to conquer Jiang Hao at that time, and when he heard the news that Duoduo was seriously ill, he immediately returned to the court, and when he arrived at Juyong Pass, Dolgon "changed into plain clothes, cried and ran to the capital".
However, the bandit syndicate, which was founded on robbery and massacre, believed in pragmatism, and what honors and evaluations could be changed at any time.
In December 1652, Dolgon was knighted, and Dordo was posthumously promoted to the rank of prince because he was his half-brother.
This so-called great hero has become the same title as his son.
Of course, if history develops normally, then in the Qianlong period, Emperor Qianlong will rehabilitate him, and then give him an edict to enjoy the Taimiao, and then recharacterize it, calling it "the most meritorious of the founding kings".
The father is cut behind him, but the son still has to be appointed, which is called a test.
Therefore, the general of Pingnan, Xinxuan, and the king of the county, Doni, knew that if this battle was lost, there was no need to say anything.
“! ##¥¥¥%#&*……”
Fight to the death, this has to be a battle to the death with no way out.
But where did those pirates who called themselves the Han Tang Group come from?
They asked many of the merchants who had been to sea, and the more humble their attitudes were, the more frightened they became.
I really don't know, I haven't heard of it before, these maritime merchants replied trembling slightly.
In 1646, after Duoduo pacified Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Duoduo immediately undertook to change Nanjing to Jiangnan Province, and invited 373 officials below the governors of Jiangning and Anqing to establish a perfect bureaucratic system.
With Nanjing as the center, the eight banners were stationed in the main towns and roads, and they were ready to continue to move south at any time to sweep away the anti-Qing forces and the remnants of the Ming Dynasty.
But the rebellion in Shanxi disrupted this process, and they had to transfer their main forces to Shanxi at that time.
In this way, people like Yongshengbo and Zheng Cai were given some respite.
The ban on the sea pursued by those local officials was even more severe than in the Ming Dynasty, and this was not an economic problem, but a political problem.
If there are any more people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang who dare to go to sea and trade, the whole ship will be killed, and the whole family will be killed!
Therefore, unless it is the local official's own descendant family who secretly does some business, others don't think about it. Moreover, such people still belong to the bold ones, and most of the rest of the magistrates do not dare.
So, the maritime merchants really don't know.
The general of Pingnan, Xin Xuan, and the king of the county, Doni, knew that they were telling the truth, and like his father, he was also good at appeasing the people, so they said a few words to appease them and let them disperse.
They sent Xizuo to the Taizhou City area to inquire first, and at the same time, according to the reports of the soldiers who had escaped, they made corresponding preparations.
They prepared a large number of hard bows and crossbows, prepared a lot of hardwood shields, urgently cast a batch of small marching cannons, and at the same time, turned out the three-eyed firearms captured by the Ming army in the past.
But the firebolt has long been in tatters, and how powerful this thing can be?!
They asked the fleeing soldiers to identify them, and they said that the pirates' three-eyed firearms were much smaller than that...... It's incomprehensible.
This time they were unable to expel a large number of civilians in front of the charge.
Because the terrain characteristics of eastern Zhejiang limit this tactic. Even if the Tartars themselves 200,000 soldiers were lightly armed, they would not be able to move fast on such a road, and if there were civilians in front of them, they really didn't know when they would go.
The Tartars really didn't like to fight in the south in April and May, and they still couldn't adapt to that climate for a while. It wasn't that they were afraid that their weapons would rust, but that the bowstring would not be able to stay hard, and that the horse was also prone to disease, and that heat and humidity were their worst enemies.
Therefore, winter is a good day to fight, and time waits for no one, especially since the Zheng family's forces have not yet been encountered.
They chose a day and the whole army was mobilized. Of course, they also left behind 3,000 defenders.
The headquarters of the Tartars' naval army was in Taizhou, but Hangzhou also had a wharf and a number of warships.
They secretly sent 2,000 men on board and asked them to go to Taizhou accordingly to attack the pirates.
The Tartars chose a sunny day to set out.
In the cold morning sun, the general of Pingnan, Xin Xuan, and the king of the county, Doni, rode on their horses and waved their whips lightly, and this army, which could not see the tail of the team at all, began to move towards the Taizhou area.
In a small courtyard in the city of Hangzhou, several carrier pigeons rushed into the cold blue sky.
……………………………………………………………………………………
As the saying goes, the lone wanderer is the fastest, and long before this army was dispatched, there was a literati with a small servant, but he arrived before them.
Of course, the two men arrived in Taizhou City on a dhow fishing boat.
This literati is Huang Zongxi.
In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen (1642), Huang Zongxi participated in the imperial examination in Beijing and became famous after Sun Shan.
On the tenth day of the winter month of this year, Zong Xi returned to his home in Yuyao, Zhejiang.
In the spring of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, Ming died. In May, the Hongguang regime in Nanjing was established, Ruan Dacheng was the squire of the military department, and compiled the "Locust Record" (falsely accusing the Donglin Party of being a locust, and the Fushe being a locust), and according to the signature of "Staying in the Capital to Prevent Chaos and Public Exposure", Huang Zongxi and others were arrested and imprisoned.
In May of the following year, the Tartars captured Nanjing, the Hongguang regime collapsed, and Huang Chengchao escaped and returned to Yuyao.
In leap June, Yuyao Sun Jiaji and Xiong Rulin raised troops to resist the Qing Dynasty.
As a result, the literati Huang Zongxi sold his property, summoned more than 600 young and middle-aged people in Huangzhupu, organized the "Shizhong Camp" to respond, and wrote "The Great Unification Calendar of the First Year of the Prison of the State of Lu".
In February of the third year of Shunzhi (1646), he was appointed by King Lu as the head of the Ministry of War.
In May of this year, he commanded the "fire attack battalion" to cross the sea to the city of Zhapu, because of the disparity in strength and defeat, after the defeat in June, the Tartars occupied Shaoxing, Huang Zongxi and Wang Yi remnants entered Siming Mountain, stationed in the Zhuxi Temple to hold the village, and then because of its subordinates disturbing the people when they went out, the village was destroyed by the mountain people and sneaked into the house, and because the Tartars were arrested, they avoided living in Anshan.
In the sixth year (1649), he once again made a dynasty to the king of Lu and was promoted to the left deputy capital of the imperial history. In the winter of the same year, he and Ruan Mei and Feng Jingdi sent Japanese beggars to Nagasaki Island and Sasma Island, but they did not return.
Then he returned home and lived in seclusion, no longer serving in the Lu Dynasty, maybe he was because he saw the literati fighting within the Lu Dynasty, or maybe he felt his incompetence, anyway, he didn't play anymore and went into hiding.
In this way, he escaped a relocation, and he was not there when the Zheng family last relocated this Lu Dynasty to the Yongli Dynasty as a whole.
As early as 1646, he built the Longhu Mountain Thatched Cottage in Hua'an Mountain.
Huang Zongxi lives here. In this simple and simple thatched cottage, he faced the hopeless reality of low resistance to the Tartars and devoted himself to writing.
He lives in the mountains and is in an embarrassing situation, but he still cares about the world's major affairs and carefully educates the visiting students, so he should be regarded as the most beautiful rural teacher in this time and space.
In the early morning of this day, as usual, he worked in the small vegetable garden in front of the cottage, and always had to eat vegetables.
If he has the leisure to admire, he will see that it is surrounded by mountains on three sides, green mountains and green waters, several thatched houses, a vegetable garden, a stone bridge, a few ancient trees, several vines, quite a quiet mountain dwelling scene.
But he has to work and has no intention of appreciating it.
When he was young, Huang Zongxi spent ten years studying the knowledge of soldiers, agriculture, time, geography and physics, which were "applied to the world", almost to the point of "obsession".
Now, at the age of forty-three, he is doing the most basic scientific practice himself.
When he felt that the sweat was about to run down, he suddenly heard a person shouting: "Mr. Huang, Mr. Huang, the world has changed greatly, you still have the leisure to play with this vegetable garden?!" ”
Huang Zongxi raised his eyes and saw a person trotting from the Huangjiazhu Bridge.
This man is a merchant in the village of Yamashita.
Perhaps other schools of thought did not have a good impression of businessmen, but the Eastern Zhejiang School, which was inherited from Wang Yangming, put forward the idea of attaching equal importance to industry and commerce and agriculture.
Huang Zongxi is an outstanding representative of this Eastern Zhejiang School.
The man was very excited, his chubby body seemed to be very dexterous at this moment, and he didn't take a breath when he leaped to the edge of the vegetable garden.
He told Huang Zongxi all the rumors he had heard, and said: "Mr. Huang knows astronomy and geography, and watching the stars in the past few days can make great changes......
"No, as usual......"
"Ah, that's weird...... Why don't Mr. Huang approve a hexagram? I came down the mountain to say goodbye......"
Huang Zongxi was holding a hoe, looking at the sweaty appearance of this small businessman, thought about it, and said a few words casually: "The guest comes from the east, sing and go." Don't enter through the door, I am walled, the game is in the atrium, and the palace is entertained. The blow snapped, and the dead were crowded. Break his skin, why not be afraid of my injury. ”
Huang Zongxi actually gave him a lantern riddle, and every summer, when he reads until night, he is most afraid of this thing.
In fact, he was indeed proficient in astronomical calendrical calculations and mathematics.
He used the method of calculating the solar eclipse and Yan Ruoxuan and others to verify that the ancient text "Shangshu" was a forgery of the ancients, which brought a great shock to the ideological circles at that time.
At the same time, Tong guò compared the "Chinese" and thought that the ancient text "Shangshu?? "Tang He" is a later generation's "mistakenly attacked the Zhou system and thought it was "Tang He". And it is concluded that "the eclipse of the sun is in June of the 17th year of Zhao" (the summer of the 17th year of Lu Zhaogong), "it can be seen that the text of the "Book of Xia" is different from the Confucian book and Zuo's rather than the pseudo, so it cannot but be doubted by the ancient text.
But none of this has anything to do with fortune-telling.
After Huang Zongxi finished speaking, he went back to the vegetable garden and ignored him.
As if he had received a secret word, the merchant muttered it over and over again, and slowly left.
After he left, Huang Zongxi's heart was in turmoil.
In the end, he simply took a student who lived in his house and went to sea together, to go to that Taizhou place to see if there was really a legendary magic...... At least they defeated the Tartars.
