Chapter 204: The Mission of the East China Sea


After the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, they destroyed Li Zicheng, invaded Jiangnan in the south, and invaded Sichuan, and the war almost never stopped.After two years of continuous fighting, the Qing army really needed time to digest the territory it occupied.Therefore, Dolgon made a little change to the national policy of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.Now the Qing army also understands that it will not be able to destroy the Southern Ming Dynasty for a while, so it is not in a hurry, and begins to invest some energy to restore the people's livelihood in the Manchu ruled area, and further eliminate the Ming restoration forces in the ruled area, so as to make itself have a stable rear and strengthen the strength of the Manchu Qing.Although Bolo's death shook the government and the opposition, and there was a voice in the Eight Banners and the clan looking for revenge from the Ming army, but it was suppressed by Dolgon.A place in western Zhejiang, for the Qing army, in fact, is not so important, the Ming army to take it, let him take it, Dol roll the most decided, only a part of the troops, maintain the status quo of Zhejiang and Jiangnan, did not mobilize a large army, counterattack western Zhejiang, but continue to maintain the absolute superiority of the Qing army in Huguang and Jiangxi.Because the pro-army put on a defensive posture in Zhejiang, after the Battle of Jinhua, Jiangsu and Zhejiang were shaken, and the counties of Xizhou in Zhejiang were determined by Zhu Yihai.Zhu Yihai sent troops and horses, and soon took Yanzhou, Jinhua, Chuzhou and other prefectures and counties, and even the prefectures and counties in the north of Taizhou occupied by the Qing army also returned to the Ming Dynasty anyway.In Yanzhou Mansion, all units of the Ming army gathered to prepare for the counterattack of the Qing army, but the Qing army stationed in Tonglu County did not invade Yanzhou, but put on a defensive posture.In August, the Ming army gathered in Yanzhou received news from the Heaven and Earth Society that the Qing army was only stationed in Tonglu County, northeast of Yanzhou, and Huizhou Mansion in the northwest of Yanzhou, each stationed 20,000 soldiers and horses in a defensive posture, and did not intend to counterattack western Zhejiang, but increased more than 30,000 troops to Shaoxing and Ningbo, forcing the surging righteous army in eastern Zhejiang to hide in the four mountains.In view of this, the Ming army judged that the Qing army would not attack for the time being, and after a major battle of the Ming army, it also needed to rest, and the material consumption was quite large.At this time, the Ming army did not have the strength, and continued to advance into Hangzhou and eastern Zhejiang, while the Qing army did not counterattack western Zhejiang.In this battle, Zheng Chenggong commanded 30,000 people, withstood the test, played a momentum, and became an important force in the Longwu court.In order to thank Zheng Chenggong for sending reinforcements, Zhu Yihai gave Zheng Chenggong a lot of armor, weapons, and more than 7,000 war horses.On the fifth day of the eighth month, in the south of Yanzhou City, Zheng Chenggong's 30,000 troops rushed out of the door hole and embarked on the return journey back to Fujian.Zhu Yihai led a large group of Zhejiang army generals and stood outside the city to see off Zheng Chenggong and others."

Your Highness, the situation in western Zhejiang is a little calmer, but the war situation in Huguang and southern Jiangxi is still worrying.News came from the imperial court that Jin Shenghuan's soldiers and horses had come to the city of Ganzhou, and if Ganzhou was lost, the northern gateway of Fujian would be opened, and Fujing would be threatened by the Qing army. ”Zheng Chenggong gave Zhu Yihai a fist salute: "If you succeed, you will leave!"

”Zhu Yihai understands very well, "Da Mu just needs to return to Fujian, reinforce southern Jiangnan, and return to western Zhejiang today, and promise not to let the northern captives come to Xianxia Pass, and ensure the safety of northeast Fujian!"

”After speaking, Zhu Yihai took a bowl of wine from the hands of his subordinates, and said solemnly: "The lonely king wishes Damu a smooth journey, repel Jin Shenghuan as soon as possible, and recover the whole of Jiangxi!"

”Zheng Chenggong took it, raised his head and drank it, showed it to everyone, and then saluted: "Your Highness, gentlemen, farewell!"

”Everyone also clasped their fists in unison, and they were a little reluctant in their hearts.At this time, Zheng Chenggong turned over and got on the horse, but Zhao Ming stepped forward, grabbed the reins of his horse, and said in a deep voice: "Da Mu, I have something to say!"

”Zheng Chenggong said: "Brother Bo'an said directly, I will listen to you!"

”Zhao Ming then said: "The Qing army did not counterattack western Zhejiang, which may not be the luck of the Ming Dynasty.Now Hunan and southern Jiangxi are in danger, and the imperial court should have a countermeasure!

I thought that since the court had recruited it, it would be able to recruit it.Today, Zhang Xianzhong is dying, if the rest of the thieves can be used by the court, it will definitely be able to add a big boost to the court!

”Zheng Chenggong nodded, "Brother Bo'an, don't worry, I will tell Your Majesty!"

”When Zhao Ming heard this, he let go of the reins of the horse, Zheng Chenggong took the horse whip handed by the guards, bowed his hand to everyone again, and said loudly, "The next time we meet, we will attack Jinling!"

”After finishing speaking, Zheng Chenggong drew his war horse, and together with dozens of horsemen behind him, he left Yanzhou and galloped towards Fujian.Everyone watched Zheng Chenggong and 30,000 horses go away before returning to Yanzhou City to discuss the matter of Zhejiang's resistance to the Qing Dynasty.Now the Qing army is on the defensive, and Hangzhou and Nanjing are heavily defended by the Qing army, and the strength of the Zhejiang army is not good, so they can only turn to the defense.After some discussion, King Lu left Li Chengdong to guard Yanzhou and Quzhou, Zhang Mingzhen to guard Jinhua, Wu Zhaosheng to guard Chuzhou, and Fang Guoan to guard Wenzhou and Taizhou.Several generals divided the land of the six mansions, and Li Chengdong was even more overjoyed, and finally had a place to live.During the discussion, Zhao Ming also divided a mansion, but this mansion was still in the hands of the Qing army, which was Ningbo Mansion.On the sixth day of the eighth month, one day after Zheng Chenggong left, Zhao Ming ordered that Wang Yi, the commander of Simingwei, lead more than 5,000 people, leave Yanzhou and return to Siming Mountain, where he insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty.In addition, there was also a part of the baggage soldiers, with their share of the capture, went south to Taizhou, and then returned to Zhoushan by boat, leaving only 10,000 elite soldiers by Zhao Ming's side.At this time, Zhu Yihai collected prisoners, recruited rebels, and expanded the number of men and horses to 50,000, and Zhao Ming decided to bid farewell to Zhu Yihai and prepare to return to Zhoushan after determining that the Qing army was not ready to counterattack western Zhejiang.On August 10, Zhao Ming's men and horses finally decided to leave western Zhejiang, and Zhu Yihai personally sent them off."

Your Highness, please go back!

The matter of the East China Sea, His Royal Highness does not have to worry about it, the ministers will definitely make the Manchu Qing unpeaceful!

”In the eastern suburbs of Yanzhou, Zhao Ming led the horse and said to Zhu Yihai beside him."

Lonely in sending Qing's house!"

Zhu Yihai said casually.The two of them walked in front, and the generals led their horses to follow, and they were already more than ten miles away from the city.In the past few days, Zhu Yihai, Zhao Ming and others have analyzed the current situation and feel that although he has recovered western Zhejiang, the general trend has not changed."

The day before yesterday, the Qing family once said that the Manchu Qing Dynasty had eight points in the world, and most of them were anointed places, once the Manchus digested it, the situation was unimaginable."

Zhu Yihai said worriedly: "Thinking about it for the past few days, I feel that what the Qing family said is very reasonable, with the barren land of southern Zhejiang and western Zhejiang, it is really difficult to defeat the Qing army.Now it's really a day of delay, and the Qing army will be one point stronger!

”Seeing this, Zhao Ming solemnly clenched his fists and said: "Your Highness, rest assured, the minister's mission in the East China Sea is to make Jiannu not peaceful for a day, so that Jiannu cannot live!"
