Guangzhou, Pingnan Palace.

When Wang Fuchen, the governor of Liangguang in the Qing Dynasty, took his son Wang Zhongxiao and the master Yao Qisheng to lead a whole new army and swaggered into the city of Guangzhou, Shang Kexi, Shang Zhixin, Shang Zhixiao, and Shang Zhidian were discussing with Zhu Guozhi, Li Yan, Fu Honglie, Chen Shikai and others in their palaces who would attack the "Fengtian General Hu" Aobai!

In the lobby of the palace, everyone had a sad face and sighed.

The news of Ao Biden's Luxiang Island and Kowloon has been confirmed again and again!

Not only did the Portuguese send the news that Ao Bai and Wu Sanwei were building cities on Xiangdao and Kowloon through Pan Hong of Xiangshan County, but also sent people to Xin'an County and Xin'an Inspection Division, which govern "Xiangjiu", also sent people to send an urgent report - Ao Bai and Wu Sanwei's "tens of thousands of troops" have landed in "Xiangjiu" and successively captured Jiulong Duntai, Shatouxu Duntai, Guanyong Walled City, and Tuen Mun Walled City, and now Aobai's "Fengtian Seeking General Hu" flag has been planted in Shenzhen Village!

And the Qing army of the Xin'an Inspection Division has shrunk to Nantou Village on the edge of Xin'an County, and the village is closed!

In Xin'an County, there are only Minzhuang garrisons, and the people are panicked and may fall at any time!

"No, Xin'an County can't defend Xin'an County at all, Xin'an County is also within the scope of coastal relocation, although the county has not given up, but the people outside the city have moved away! There were not many people in the county, and there was no way to provide the food and grass needed for the garrison of the army. If you want to kill people for food like Shouxinhui at the beginning, you can't eat a few bites."

"What kind of people do you eat? The Minzhuang guarding Xin'an and the defenders of Nantouzhai are all Guangdong barbarians, these barbarians are all alternate thieves, and they are looking forward to rebellion every day. ”

"But as soon as Xin'an is lost, Dongguan will be in danger. Dongguan is the gateway to the east of Guangzhou! Once Dongguan is captured by Aobai, the water transportation of the Dongjiang River will be cut off, and the communication between Guangzhou and Huizhou will become very difficult. ”

"Then please ask the prince to immediately mobilize the elite of the whole province to station in Dongguan! Dongguan is a big county, with a population of hundreds of thousands, if it falls into the hands of Ao Bai and Wu Sanwei, there will be no chaos in the whole province? ”

"Where to transfer the elite? Two days ago, the Duke of Xushun and Chaozhen also posted that Dahao Qiu Hui had received reinforcements from Dayuan Island and was about to move, and there were signs of besieging Chaoyang County. And the news of Zu Zeqing's recruitment of troops and expansion of armaments came from the western part of Guangdong. Guangxi is also tense, Sun Yanling, Ma Xiong, and Guo Yi seem to be determined to rebel! It is said that Sun Yanling has accepted the title of King of Dingnan by Wu Sangui, and he will march into Guilin in a good year! The situation is so critical, and the royal army is still willing to send troops to Guangfu? ”

Shang Kexi's eldest son, Shang Zhixin, just finished saying the reason why Wang Fuchen would not send troops to Guangfu, and a bag from Pingnan Wangfu rushed in outside the hall, gave Shang Kexi a thousand, and then reported loudly: "Lord Wang, the army of the two Guangwang kings came to worship, and he also brought a standard of personal soldiers, saying that he wanted to help the prince guard Guangfu and worship!" ”

When Shang Zhixin heard this, he also laughed: "Hey, this living Lu Bu is really not afraid of worship!" ”

Shang Kexi hurriedly said: "Quick, quickly open the middle door to welcome the letter, filial piety, and ceremony, you guys hurry up to welcome your father!" ”

Shang Kexi was a vassal king who guarded Guangdong, and his status was noble, so naturally he did not have the reason to go out to greet the governor of Liangguang in person. He now sent his three sons to greet Wang Fuchen, and also opened the middle gate of the palace, which really gave the governor Wang enough face.

Zhu Guozhi, Li Yan, Fu Honglie, and Chen Shikai, who came to the Pingnan palace to discuss military affairs, also followed Shang Kexi's three sons to greet them, and a group of people invited Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao into the palace where Shang Kexi was located.

After the salute, the half-blind Shang Kexi asked the kitchen to prepare a banquet again, to wash the dust for Wang Fuchen who came from afar, and also asked people to entertain Wang Fuchen to bring a standard elite soldier, and when he finished the performance, Wang Fuchen did not continue to greet him, but went straight to the topic: "Lord Wang, Xiaguan came from Zhaoqing because the new army under Xiaguan recently intercepted a secret agreement signed by Wu Sanwei and the Portuguese soldiers of Haoao and Macao, as well as the Catholic Church!"

According to this secret agreement, the Portuguese soldiers and the Catholic Church will help Wu Sangui deal with us, and in the future, they will also send their Western ships to help Wu Sangui and Ao Bai transport troops to attack Yanyun, Liaodong or Korea. Copy the back road of our Qing Dynasty! ”

"What?"

"Wang Zhijun, you said that Wu Sanwei colluded with the Portuguese soldiers of Hao and Macao?"

Why is that? We don't treat those Portuguese lightly! ”

"That's it, what a great grace the emperor has given them to be foreign servants of the Internal Affairs Bureau!"

"Even if they don't want to, we haven't really sent troops to fight people, how can they vote for Wu Sangui? Isn't that ungrateful? ”

Shang Kexi's palace hall suddenly exploded - a group of Qing princes and high-ranking officials who closed their eyes and did not look at the world may still think that the Portuguese colonists who occupied Hao Ao were good people who paid attention to the spirit of contract!

Wang Fuchen listened to these childish remarks, just smiled lightly, and then instructed his master Yao Qisheng to say: "Xizhi, take the text of the secret agreement we seized to the prince. Lord Wang, there can be Wu Sanwei and the head of the Portuguese soldiers in Hao and Macao on this secret text. It's not good to die. Get. Sewa, as well as the signature of Luo Wenzao, the host of the Catholic Church in Haoao!

There must be this brute bull soldier on the prince's side, as well as the letter presided over by Luo, right? Take it to a pair of handwriting to know the truth and fake! ”

Shang Kexi was also a little panicked, and hurriedly ordered: "Zhixiao, you are in charge of the affairs of Haoao, you can take the secret book and take a look!" Then I asked someone to take the letter from the head of the Portuguese soldiers of Hao and Macao and the letter hosted by Luo to pair them. This, how can this be good! ”

Although he ordered a pair of handwriting, he basically decided in his heart that this secret agreement was not fake!

He has been in Guangdong for so many years, no matter how much he doesn't care about the world, he knows more or less what some Western colonizers have done in Southeast Asia. That's almost the same as what he Shang Kexi and the Qing Dynasty did in Guangdong!

Since everyone is the same kind, what will the Portuguese in Hao and Macao do at the moment when Guangdong is in turmoil and the world is already in turmoil, can Shang Kexi still guess?

If he is the head of the Portuguese soldiers in Hao, Macao, he will also have to rebel against Wu and now Wu Sangui is "anti-love", and the winning face is not small, if the Portuguese in Haoao and Macao help again, first help Sun Yanling, Zu Zeqing, Wu Sanwei, and Ao Bai to take Guangdong together, and then help transport troops to the north of the sea and not transport them to Liaodong so far, and it will be enough for the Qing Dynasty to withstand it when they are transported to the south of the Yangtze River.

When Wu Sangui wins the world, he will be rewarded for his meritorious deeds, and the head of the Portuguese soldiers in Hao and Macao will not be crowned a king?

"Amma, yes, it's true, this is indeed the handwriting of Shi Bozhi and Luo Wenzao, these Portuguese people have really taken refuge in Wu Sangui! They really want to help Wu Sanwei take Guangdong."

Shang Zhixiao had already asked one of his masters to check the signature on the secret contract at this time—this signature was undoubtedly genuine!

If the signature is genuine, the secret covenant must also be genuine!

"Wang Zhijun, how can you say this?" Shang Kexi frowned and asked, "If Ao Bai and Wu Sanwei are stationed in Shenzhen, the striker will go straight to Xin'an County!" Zu Zeqing is divided in Gao, Lei, and Lian again, and Sun Yanling, Ma Xiong, and Guo Yi control half of Guangxi, and the two Guangxi are about to be in chaos! ”

When Wang Fuchen heard this, his brows furrowed, "Lord, according to the previous practice, the governor of Liangguang is only in charge of the military affairs of the five prefectures of Zhaoqing, Gaozhou, Leizhou, Lianzhou, and Qiongzhou, and the military affairs of Guangfu, Shaozhou, Nanxiong Prefecture and Lianzhou, and the Pingnan Wangfu should be in charge of it!" ”

"This." Although Shang Kexi's eyes are a little blind, his heart can be open, Wang Fuchen must want to benefit when he says such things at this time!

If he really doesn't want to send troops, then he won't come to Guangfu!

But how much should this benefit be given? Thinking of this, King Pingnan coughed.

"Wang Zhijun," Zhu Guozhi, the governor of Guangdong, heard Shang Kexi's cough, and immediately took the stubble, stroked his beard and said, "In the past, there were no 15,000 new troops in the two Guangxi armies!" ”

Wang Fuchen's new army was originally 10,000 people, but after arriving in Zhaoqing Mansion, he reorganized and supplemented the governors of Liangguang (there were a lot of vacancies in the governors), and then merged them into the new army, so Wang Fuchen's new army town now has three associations and six standards plus four directly subordinate battalions, a total of 15,000 new troops!

In addition, with the help of Yao Qisheng, Wang Fuchen also purchased a large number of arms from the Portuguese in Haoao (most of which are actually made in Foshan), and the strength is quite strong!

Wang Fuchen said with a smile: "Zhu Futai, you are right! But the official still has to guard against Sun Yanling, Zu Zeqing, Ma Xiong, and Guo Yi, the four of them sent troops to take Guilin, and the official is still the presidential minister of the Guilin battalion! Therefore, this official really can't draw many people to attack Hao O, unless"

"Unless what?" Shang Zhixin asked urgently.

Wang Fuchen said: "Unless you can let the people of this official take over the magistrates of Xiangshan, Xinhui, and Xinning counties!" ”

"That's not going to work!" Shang Zhixiao immediately objected, "These three counties are all the territory of Guangfu!" And Xiangshan is still "

"Or what?" Wang Zhongxiao continued Shang Zhixiao's words, "Or is it an extralegal place to engage in smuggling with the Portuguese in Hao, Macao, and Macao?" ”

"You, what nonsense are you talking about?" Shang Zhixiao's face sank suddenly, and he glared at Wang Zhongxiao viciously.

Wang Zhongxiao smiled and said, "It's okay to engage in smuggling in the past. Now the Portuguese of Hao Macao have colluded with Wu Sangui! If you do business with them again, it will not be smuggling, but collaborating with the enemy!

My father wanted to send someone to take over Xiangshan, Xinhui, and Xinning, just to put an end to smuggling, blockade Haoao, and then recruit Heyi, Yingyi, Fayi and the righteous people of the sea to help, and attack Haoao Castle together!

If the magistrates of the three counties around Hao Ao don't let their father's people do it, then the Portuguese father of Hao Ao can't deal with it! If Ao Bai and Wu Sanwei had conquered Guangzhou with the help of the Portuguese, Pingnan Wangfu would not have lost the territory of the three counties at that time! ”

"What are these words?" Guangdong Admiral Li Lan said calmly, "Guangdong is the territory of the country, not the territory of the Pingnan Wangfu and the Liangguang Army!" ”

"Li Junmen, don't talk about the scene." Wang Fuchen smiled, "If today's chaos is imminent. It would be good if the imperial court could resist Wu Sangui's offensive, where would there be any spare strength to take care of Liangguang? Maybe after the beginning of spring, Huguang and Shaanxi will have big problems, and then the two Guangzhous will be alone!

Let's divide the territory between the two Guangzhou, what about one person and one domain? This is not disloyal to the imperial court, is it? ”

Wang Fuchen can be regarded as completely clear!

There was silence in the hall.

Zhu Guozhi and Li Yan both looked at each other angrily, Chen Shikai frowned, and Shang Kexi was silent.

Just when the scene was embarrassing again, Shang Zhixin suddenly opened his mouth to break the silence: "Yes, yes, that's it. As long as we ensure that Guangdong and Guangxi do not fall into the hands of Wu Sangui, we will be worthy of the imperial court! It's impossible to be the same as before!

When the Tang Dynasty came out of the feudal town, there was also a rebellious town and a shun town. ”

Shang Zhixiao also spoke: "But Xinning, Xinhui, and Xiangshan are the territory of Pingnan Palace!" ”

Wang Zhongxiao said: "Second prince, the emperor sealed me as the Guangdong Customs Road, and asked me to raise salaries for the Guangdong New Army and the Guangxi Dingfan Army, and I will take three counties.

As for the territory, after your Pingnan Wangfu gave up the three counties of Guangfu, wouldn't it be better to make up for it from Shaozhou Prefecture, Nanxiong Prefecture, and Lianzhou?

Zhu Futai, Li Junmen, and Chen Zongrong, the three of you, might as well divide Huizhou Mansion! The territory of Huizhou Mansion is no worse than Zhaoqing! ”

After listening to Wang Zhongxiao's suggestion, Zhu Guozhi, Li Yan, and Chen Shikai were all speechless.

The territory of the state is divided privately like this? The governors of Liangguang were divided into three counties of Zhaoqingfu, Luodingzhou, and Guangfu, and the king of Pingnan was divided into eleven counties and one prefecture in Guangfu, plus Shaozhou, Nanxiong, and Lianzhou, and the governor of Guangdong and the governor of Guangdong were assigned to Huizhou, and the governor of Xushun and Chaozhou were assigned to Gao, Lei, and Lian in Chaozhou, and the three prefectures were occupied by Zu Zeqing.

So what is left of Kangxi? Qiongzhou Mansion?

Wang Fuchen saw that Shang Kexi was not squeaky, so he smiled and said: "Lord Wang, there is only one son of King Duopingnan!" It's not as good as Shaozhou Mansion, Nanxiong Prefecture, and Lianzhou, so it's enough points. There are at least 20 counties in these two prefectures, so it's okay to seal 20 county governors, right? ”

This seems to be good!

Before Shang Kexi could speak, Shang Zhixin had already spoken to his two brothers, "Second brother, third brother, you might as well divide Tunshao, Nan, and Lian. Here in Guangfu, just have me to serve Amma! ”

Shang Zhixiao and Shang Zhidian originally wanted to compete with Shang Zhixin for the position of the prince of Pingnan, but now that they have the opportunity to carve up one government and two states, of course they are itchy.

The king of Pingnan is also a mansion in Guangzhou. And this mansion is not very stable now, Ao Bai, Wu Sanwei, the Portuguese, Wang Fuchen's father and son all want to share a little! It's better to take a step back and go to Shao, Nan, and Lian!

"Amma, do you think the eldest brother has a good way?"

"Amma, it's not that my son doesn't want to serve your old man in Guangzhou, but my son is worried that Wu Sangui's army is coming from Hunan, so my son wants to guard Shaoguan!"

Zhu Guozhi and Li Yan could only stare at the blind King Pingnan when they heard Shang Kexi's three sons say this.

Shang Kexi sighed: "The old man is also worried about Hunan, the old man heard that Wu Sangui has appointed Wu Guogui as the governor of Huguang, and he will soon send troops to Huguang!" Therefore, Shao, Lian, and Nan must not be lost! Zhixiao and Zhidian, you have a good discussion to see how to guard there. ”

"Lord Wang!" Zhu Guozhi was a little anxious, he was originally a good governor of Guangdong, but he became the prefect of Huizhou after such a toss, and he only had 2,000 pacesetters, and he was at the bottom of the strength of the leaders of the major armies in Guangdong, who knows when it will be annexed?

Shang Kexi waved his hand: "That's it. Let's discuss how to give the emperor a playbook! ”

Wang Fuchen breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Lord Wang, the lower officials have prepared a script for the impeachment of the Portuguese soldiers of Macao, the presiding officer of the Catholic Church of Macao, the Church of Rome and the Kingdom of Portugal, why don't you sign it with Zhu Futai, Li Junmen, and Chen Zongrong?" ”

Beijing, Forbidden City.

Just when the situation in Guangdong changed dramatically because of the emergence of Wu Sanwei and Aobai, Chen Yonghua, who was entrusted by Kangxi with the task of "sea aid and suppression of the general army", was wearing the official uniform of the general soldier of the second grade, standing at the door of the south study, waiting for the summons of Emperor Kangxi with excitement.

Kangxi is going to see Chen Jinnan!

This is also true, I don't know Chen Jinnan in my life, even if I call him a hero, it's in vain!

How can Kangxi be regarded as a little hero, right? How can you not know Chen Jinnan?

"Slave Mingzhu leads the sea route to aid Chen Fufu, the chief soldier of Shuishi Town, please see!"

Mingzhu's voice had already come from inside the south study.

"Xuan!"

Then came the voice of the little emperor Kangxi.

A small eunuch guarding outside the south study gave Chen Yonghua a thousand words: "Chen Zongrong, please." ”

Chen Yonghua immediately carried the stupid and troublesome court clothes, and walked into the south study, the lighting in the south study was not good, when Chen Yonghua walked in, his eyes were dark, and then he subconsciously looked forward, and his eyes just collided with the gaze of Emperor Kangxi!

It was a skinny young man with a pockmarked face, just looking at him with a smile and a groan.

This is Kangxi? It doesn't look like Mingjun!

Chen Yonghua thought to himself.
