Section 36 Geng Jingzhong invited him to join Fujian Province

On the day of his succession, Zheng Kezang killed these people, and they were naturally the fools who jumped up and down a few days ago. The reason Zheng Kezang found was also very simple, that is, during their reign, they were corrupt and bent the law and disregarded people's lives. Although this is the case, how can the Manchu Dynasty civil and military not see the real reason, as well as Zheng Kezang's implicit warning of killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys. With the Dark Eagle Camp here, it is not too difficult to collect these criminal evidences, and it can even be said that the crimes are extremely heinous and difficult to write. It was also on the same day that the Dark Eagle Battalion was officially displayed in the world, revealing in the eyes of the Ming and Zheng Dynasty, which made the Ming and Zheng Dynasty all the civil and military forces tremble, which was equivalent to hanging an invisible sword over their heads.

Of course, it is difficult to convince the public with only prestige and no grace, and it will chill the hearts of those meritorious people who have been following and supporting Zheng Kezang. First, Chen Jinnan was appointed as prime minister, and the prime minister of the Ming and Zheng dynasties was in charge of six ministries; Second, Liu Guoxuan was appointed as the general, the prime minister of the military affairs of the Ming and Zheng dynasties, and the military affairs of the Ming and Zheng dynasties were reorganized for war, waiting for the opportunity to send troops to the inland, and formally intervene in the competition between the inland forces; Third, the Penghu pacification department was changed to the Penghu Governor's Office, the original Penghu pacification envoy was promoted to the governor of Penghu, Dong Yu was appointed as the first governor of Penghu, although he did not have the right to open the government and set up a government, but the military and political power of the Penghu Islands was grasped, and the rapid development of the Penghu Islands today is not weaker than that of Taiwan Island, therefore, Dong Yu, the governor of Penghu, is definitely the top real power figure in the Ming and Zheng dynasties; For the rest of his cronies, Zheng Kezang also has his own rewards, maybe the official position is not prominent, but all of them are real power figures in the six ministries or the army.

At the same time, Zheng Kezang also put in a grand manner, in the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry controlled by Mrs. Dong's family, from the left and right assistants, down to the left and right affairs, all installed close people, although they could not immediately erect the servants of these three departments, but they also shared nearly half of their power. Since Mrs. Dong and her family chose to hide for the time being, Zheng Kezang didn't mind forcing them to take another step. The big war is coming, and it will be a protracted war, Zheng Kezang does not recommend enduring the pain for a while, cutting through the mess quickly, and solving the big trouble of Mrs. Dong and her family as soon as possible, which is also better than the fire in the backyard when the war is in the future, which is really bad.

It's a pity that Zheng Kezang's wishful thinking still fell through. For a long time in the future, Mrs. Dong and her family were more forbearing, not only did they not have seizures, but they also cooperated very much with Zheng Kezang's decree on the surface. This makes Zheng Kezang unable to find a reason to attack them, and he can't even force them too much, so as not to cause other unnecessary incidents, and even lose people's hearts, which is really worth the loss.

Zheng Kezang also established a new Ministry of Commerce on the basis of the structure of the original six ministries, which was at the same level as the Ministry of War, but did not need to be responsible to Prime Minister Chen Jinnan, and was directly subordinate to Zheng Kezang, the king of Yanping. As the name suggests, the Ministry of Commerce is responsible for commerce, trade, as the 21st century through Zheng Kezang, of course, clear commerce, trade, is the top priority of a country's financial resources, and Zheng Kezang has been up and down in the business sea for many years, surprised, how can not cope with the current comparison of the 21st century is far from mature business market environment, not to mention Zheng Kezang, even his apprentice Chen Yan'er, is more than enough, in recent years, Penghu Islands can develop so rapidly, It's really thanks to the full support of Chen Yan'er's business. And the candidate for this squire of the Ministry of Commerce is none other than Chen Yan'er. Zheng Kezang believes that with Chen Yan'er presiding over the Ministry of Commerce, there will definitely be a lot of money, which is enough to support his next series of plans.

is the so-called three fires for new officials to take office, and politicians hide this third fire, which is to burn for Jinyiwei. Zheng Kezang succeeded to the throne of Yanping County, and it was no longer suitable to continue to serve as the commander of Jinyiwei, but a violent organization like Jinyiwei naturally had to be handed over to the most trusted hands, so Zheng Kezang could rest assured, so the new position of Jinyiwei commander fell to Chen Yan'er. Zheng Kezang also ordered Chen Jinnan and Liu Guoxuan to fully cooperate with Chen Yan'er and Zhang Wenjie, transfer elites from various ministries, and set up five battalions of wolf guards in Jinmu, Water, Fire and Earth. Even, in order to enable the newly formed five battalions to exert their combat strength as soon as possible and adapt to the tactics of the wolf guards, Zheng Kezang once again scattered the three battalions of wolf guards, night wolves, and dark wolves, mixed them with the newly formed five battalions, and stepped up training and preparations. Only the Blood Wolf Battalion remains unchanged, and it is the most elite battalion of the Wolf Guard. He will march inland in the future, and the wolf guard will be the absolute main force.

As for the Eagle Guard, after so many years, batch after batch of Jianghu high-rollers and those orphans in troubled times who have undergone cruel training, the fifth battalion of Eagle Guard has long been full. Zheng Kezang also has no intention of expanding the Eagle Guard again, as long as the five battalions of 5,000 men and horses are maintained. Although Jianghu high-rollers are no longer recruited, the shelter and training of orphans in troubled times have not stopped. They will also go through brutal training, even more brutal and comprehensive training than before, and those who are eliminated will be the reserve of the Eagle Guard, and the successful winner will form the "Hidden Dragon Guard". Hidden Dragon Guard, after layers of screening, can be described as the elite of the thousands, the elite of the elite. Moreover, the identities of the people in the Hidden Dragon Guard are all top secret, and only a limited number of people such as Zheng Kezang, Chen Yan'er, Zhang Wenjie and Liu Zhibin know it. Yinlongwei, the first choice will follow the merchant ships, caravansera, study abroad, and after returning from school, he will enter the military and political two terms of the Ming and Zheng Dynasty, not only becoming the descendants of Zheng Kezang, but also an important talent that Zheng Kezang will rely on in the future.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Zheng Kezang has been the king of Yanping County for more than half a year. In this half year, with Zheng Kezang's tough skills and extraordinary strategy, the entire Ming and Zheng Dynasty flourished. In terms of government affairs, there are rising stars such as Chen Jinnan and Dong Yu, and in terms of the court bureau and local governance, Zheng Kezang rarely needs to bother; In terms of military affairs, nearly 100,000 land and water troops of the entire Ming and Zheng Dynasty, including 45,000 people of the Jinyi Guard and Wolf Guard, have all been prepared for battle, and they can be sent inland on the same day.

SIMILARLY, WITHIN HALF A YEAR, THE WAR SITUATION IN THE CENTRAL PLAINS CHANGED ABRUPTLY, THE QING COURT WAS STRONG IN THE END, AND IT HAD COMPLETELY GAINED A FIRM FOOTHOLD, STABILIZING THE SIX PROVINCES OF ZHILI, SXSDHNSX AND GS, EXCEPT FOR THE FOUR PROVINCES OF YNGZSC AND GX, WHERE WU SANGUI SAT FIRMLY, AS WELL AS THE TWO PROVINCES OF GUANGZHOU, WHICH WERE GRATEFULLY GRATIFIED BY GENG JINGZHONG'S FJ AND SHANG KEXI, THE REMAINING HWHNAHJSZJJX AND OTHER PROVINCES WERE ALL FIGHTING FIERCELY WITH THE RESISTANCE FORCES, AND EVEN HAD A SLIGHT UPPER HAND. It is worth mentioning that under Wu Liuqi's unremitting efforts, Geng Jingzhong's army has always stood still in GD Province, not only did not raise troops to rebel, but even openly supported the Qing court, but only verbally shouted a few words, but did not take any actual action.

On this day, the battle report came again, saying that Geng Jingzhong and Wu Sangui joined forces and marched to JX Province, but they were beaten by the Qing army and lost their armor and returned defeated. After receiving the battle report, Zheng Kezang looked up to the sky and laughed three times, laughing at the Manchu Dynasty and saying that the opportunity to march into the Central Plains had arrived, and good news would come soon. Sure enough, news soon came from FJ that Geng Jingzhong sent his confidant Qian Liang to envoy and invite him to join FJ to fight against the Qing Dynasty.

Three days later, Qian Liang and his entourage arrived in Taiwan, and made a generous speech at the court meeting, lobbying Zheng Kezang and the Manchu civil and military forces of the Ming and Zheng dynasties, with only one purpose, that is, to invite Zheng Kezang to march into FJ and Geng Jingzhong to fight against the Qing Dynasty. This move was in Zheng Kezang's arms, and Zheng Kezang did not pretend to delay him for a few days, and the court accepted it. That night, Zheng Kezang personally set up a banquet to entertain Qian Liang, the messenger, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves at the banquet. Late at night, the banquet dispersed, and Zheng Kezang, Chen Yan'er, Chen Jinnan, Liu Guoxuan, Liu Zhibin, Zhang Wenjie and Dong Yu dispersed, but came to the study of the Yanping County Palace, wanting to discuss the next entry into FJ.

In the study, the candles were flickering, and the seven people were chatting about tea, and they didn't immediately start discussing business, as if they were waiting for someone to arrive. It didn't take long for "Dangdang...... Dangdang......" rhythmic knocking sounded, and with Zheng Kezang's "come in", a person dressed in a night suit quickly entered, and gently closed the door. I saw that the people who came bowed down and bowed, and saluted: "Jinyi Guard, Qian Liang, the pacification envoy of the falconry camp, see the prince, the commander, the deputy commander, and all the adults." "Yes, this person is not someone else, it is the FJ envoy to Taiwan this time, Geng Jingzhong's confidant Qian Liang. He also has another identity, which few people know, that is, the first batch of Eagle Guard 5 sent to the Central Plains by Zheng Kezang, even Chen Jinnan, Liu Guoxuan, Liu Zhibin and Dong Yu only knew about it at this moment under Chen Yan'er's explanation.

"Get up." Zheng Kezang said warmly: "Qian Liang, you have worked hard all these years. Are the brothers all right? Qian Liang got up and replied excitedly: "Lord Wang, being able to serve you is the greatest blessing in this life for my subordinates and brothers." After a pause, he said, "Fortunately, the subordinates and brothers did not disappoint the prince." This time, taking advantage of Geng Jingzhong's fear of being beaten by the Qing court, his subordinates successfully persuaded him to ask the prince to settle in FJ and give up several state capitals bordering JX, Guangzhou, and ZJ provinces for the prince to garrison. ”

Zheng Kezang smiled dumbly and said: "This Geng Jingzhong is really old, and he was scared by the Qing court, so that the Qing court can no longer pose any threat to him, but he has also become a turtle in our urn." Qian Liang also smiled and said: "As long as the prince gives an order, his subordinates will immediately take action, get rid of Geng Jingzhong, and help the prince take over FJ completely!" Chen Jinnan objected, saying: "Geng Jingzhong invited us to enter FJ this time in order to work together to resist the Qing Dynasty, if they are killed for no reason, forcibly occupying FJ will definitely attract criticism from all over the world." This is very detrimental to our plan to overthrow the Qing court. ”

"Not bad!" Liu Guoxuan said: "If the so-called name is not right, it is not good, and if it is not good, it will not be successful!" If we want to occupy FJ, we need to occupy the righteousness. Chen Yan'er smiled and said, "This matter is not difficult. This time, the state capitals of our army did not have to rush to confront the Qing court, but also made every effort to govern the enemy and pacify the people. After a long time, Geng Jingzhong naturally couldn't sit still. But the only way to get us out of FJ is to ask for help. Wu Sangui is fighting with the Qing court at this time, and I am afraid that he will not have time to take care of him Geng Jingzhong, let alone fight against us. But the Qing court is different, for the Qing court, ours is also a rebel. At this time, it depends on Qian Liang's ability, as long as you can successfully persuade Geng Jingzhong, who was in a hurry to go to the hospital, to surrender to the Qing court, the righteousness we need will naturally be there. "Good!" When everyone heard this, they all thought deeply and nodded in admiration.

Zheng Kezang smiled: "In this way, act according to Yan'er's plan." On this trip, we must make a big show and make a huge noise, so my father-in-law, Yan'er, Zhibin and Dong Yu, together with Jin Yiwei, will be stationed with me Master FJ, Wen Jie, Taiwan is the foundation of our foothold, so please leave the two of you. "Yes!" The people were commanded with one voice.

On the second day, Qian Liang and his entourage returned to FJ to return to Geng Jingzhong. Zheng Kezang inevitably had a long night, and after three days, he personally led all the civil and military ministers, as well as the Jinyi Guard to march into FJ Zheng Kezang's army was warmly welcomed and entertained by Geng Jingzhong when he first arrived in FJ, Geng Jingzhong wanted to stay with Zheng Kezang and others for a few more days, but Zheng Kezang shirked it on the grounds that the military situation was urgent and resisting the Qing Dynasty was the top priority at the moment, and he only stayed for one day, and the border troops entered several state capitals ceded by Geng Jingzhong.

After Zheng Kezang became the head of the state capitals of FJ, according to Chen Yan'er's plan, he did not rush to find trouble with the Qing army, but tried his best to govern the localities, open warehouses and release grain, and appease the people. The so-called, prosperity, the people suffer, death, the people suffer! When the world is in turmoil, it is the people everywhere who suffer the most. Now under Zheng Kezang's governance, the people of the FJ state capitals can finally eat a full meal, and naturally begin to slowly accept Zheng Kezang's rule. In fact, in many cases, the people's requirements are really simple, as long as they can eat enough and live and work in peace and contentment, it is enough.

In the blink of an eye, more than three months have passed, and even though Geng Jingzhong has sent envoys to urge him many times, Zheng Kezang is still standing still, just governing the enemy and winning the hearts of the people. After three months of having enough to eat every day, and being exempted from taxes for three years, Zheng Kezang won the heartfelt support of the people of the state capitals. Not only that, but even the people near the state capital have heard about it, and people's minds have changed, and they also yearn for life under Zheng Kezang's governance.

How could Geng Jingzhong endure this, according to Qian Liang's secret report, saying that Geng Jingzhong had also secretly and quietly sent someone to Wu Sangui for help, but unfortunately Wu Sangui really didn't want to provoke Zheng Kezang anymore and add hostility to himself, so he didn't give any response. Geng Jingzhong regretted it, and deeply regretted that he shouldn't have led the wolf into the house in the first place, but he couldn't do anything about it. At the behest of Zheng Kezang, Qian Liang also began to secretly woo Geng Jingzhong's subordinate Wenwu, and persuaded Geng Jingzhong to surrender to the Qing court and lead the Qing army to expel Zheng Kezang. At first, Geng Jingzhong resolutely opposed himself, but as time went by, seeing Zheng Kezang grow bigger day by day and gradually gain the hearts of the people of FJ Province, coupled with the hard persuasion of the ministers, Geng Jingzhong's opposition attitude began to loosen......
