The Ming and Qing dynasties fought for several years, and by this time, all areas that were relatively easy to occupy were basically occupied by the Qing army.On the western front, the Ming army relied on the Yangtze River, the rivers of Huxiang and Hunan, and held Hunan, and the eastern front, southern Jiangxi, western Zhejiang, and southern Zhejiang were all mountainous and hilly terrain, which was not conducive to the Qing army's operations.The terrain of southern Gan helped the Ming army to block the Qing army's attack, but the terrain was dangerous and often not very rich.Now the Ming army of more than 100,000 people and horses gathered in Ruijin, a small county in southern Jiangxi, and the food supply depends on transportation from outside.Western Zhejiang, southern Zhejiang, and Fujian are not places where grain is produced, and transportation needs to cross mountains and mountains, and the loss is extremely large, and it is difficult to maintain.There is grain in Huguang, but it is not easy or cost-effective to pass through the mountainous areas on the border of Hunan and Jiangxi and transport it to southern Jiangxi for a long distance.Now that the army is stationed in Ruijin, the consumption is huge, Zhu Yihai saw that Longwu could not welcome Longwu into Zhejiang, and he did not force it, after all, he was a little hesitant about this, so after seeing Longwu make a decision, he ordered the Zhejiang army to withdraw one after another.Zhao Ming then also led the army, followed Zhu Yihai, and returned to Fuzhou to prepare to divide the captured materials.After the Zhejiang army left, Zheng Chenggong and Zheng Hongkui also led the troops back to Fujian, but now Fujian, but it is no longer owned by the Zheng family, the Zhejiang system occupies the central and eastern parts of Fujian Fuzhou, Funing, Yanping, Jianning, Shaowu five prefectures, while the Zheng army controls Zhangzhou, Quanzhou, Xinghua, Tingzhou four prefectures.After the Zhejiang army and the Zheng army left, Zhu Yujian left Ruijin under the support of the Tang faction army, before leaving, Zhu Yujian ordered that the population of Ruijin was sharply reduced, the county was withdrawn and merged into Yudu County, and Jinyiwei was ordered to destroy the county chronicles.The army marched westward and arrived in Ganzhou three days later, Zhu Yujian still appointed Wan Yuan Ji to guard Gannan, but when he was about to leave Gannan, Zhu Yujian made a move that surprised everyone, and despite the opposition of the minister, he left his younger brother Zhu Yulu, who inherited the title of Tang Wang, in Ganzhou, and allowed him to supervise military affairs.Since becoming an ancestor, the Ming Dynasty has been very strict on the vassal kings, changing the attitude of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang towards the vassal kings, and strictly prohibiting the vassal kings from interfering in politics and controlling the army.Zhu Yujian was originally motivated to raise troops to serve the king, and after being known by Emperor Chongzhen, he ordered the prince to be cut off and imprisoned at the high wall of Fengyang.However, at present, the world is in turmoil, the clan is involved in the uprising, and there are not a few who control the army, Zhu Yihai is the king of the domain, and the king of Jing who is active in the Huguang Qihuang area also has tens of thousands of troops to resist the Qing army, and the rules since the ancestors have been gradually broken.Faced with the minister's reminder to prevent the clan from becoming bigger, Zhu Yujian just said: "When the national disaster is at hand, how can the surname Zhu sit idly by!"
”This world belongs to the Zhu family, the Ming Dynasty is going to die, and the people surnamed Zhu have to take responsibility, this is the reason given by Zhu Yujian.However, this is just a pretense, in fact, after Zhu Yujian experienced the affairs of Fujian and examined the current internal state of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yujian wanted to use the power of his clan to regain control of the military and political power of the court and the local government.He didn't use all the clansmen, in fact he was only prepared to appoint his brothers and the people who submitted to him.The vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty controlled many resources, but they were reduced to fat sheep and slaughtered by others due to many restrictions.If the Chongzhen Dynasty could be like the Manchu Qing during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, allowing the Han gentry to conduct group exercises, allowing the vassal king to recruit troops, with the financial resources of the vassal king, he might be able to help the Chongzhen court.Of course, there are pros and cons to this, and the pros outweigh the disadvantages, in fact, when there is no way, it can be implemented.Ganzhou, where Zhu Yujian temporarily stayed, Zhu Yujian summoned Zhu Yuyi, the king of Tang, Zhu Yuyi, the king of Yu, and the three brothers to discuss things in the palace.In the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, the two emperors and one king of the Tang Dynasty died of resisting the Qing Dynasty, Longwu died in Tingzhou, Shao Wu was captured and died of hunger strike in Guangzhou, and the last Tang King Zhu Yuyi resisted the Qing Dynasty in Guangdong for more than ten years, and finally committed suicide in defeat during the Battle of Wencun.At this time, Zhu Yulu and Zhu Yuyi entered the room and saluted Long Wu, "Brother courtier, meet the imperial brother!"
”"Let's all be flat."
Zhu Yujian stretched out his hand and pointed to the chair on the side, letting the two younger brothers take their seats.Tang King Zhu Yulu was a little frightened on his face, "The imperial brother left his subordinate brother to supervise the army in southern Jiangnan, and asked the imperial brother to take back his order, and the subordinate brother would never dare to take such a dispatch." ”"You don't have to panic, sit down first!"
Zhu Yujian looked at Zhu Yulu and said with a smile, but Zhu Yulu didn't get up, since he became an ancestor, the emperor was very wary of the clan, and he didn't allow the vassal king to control the army, and the vassal king basically didn't touch the army in order to show that he didn't have two hearts.Zhu Yujian sighed when he saw this, and could only explain: "I summoned the two of you to come today, and I have something important to entrust.Now that the national crisis is at the head, there are hideous people on the outside, and warlords on the inside.The only person I can rely on is you and other blood relatives, Yu Lu must stay in southern Jiangnan, Yu Yan You must also take responsibility and go south to Guangzhou. ”The two of them listened to Zhu Yujian's words and knew that he was not tempting, but really wanted to use them, and their faces showed surprise.Zhu Yulu was silent for a moment, he could understand Longwu's intentions, but he was still worried: "Brother Huang, this is not in line with the ancestral system!"
”Zhu Yujian said in a deep voice: "The ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, when will it not change, Taizu abolished the prime minister, and the ancestors set up a cabinet, and during the Taizu period, there was a policy of guarding the local area.Now in this world, the authority has fallen, and if there is no longer a person surnamed Zhu at this time, the country will be owned by others sooner or later!
You don't have to wait!
”Zhu Yujian paused, stood up, and stood in the hall with his hands in his hands, "Since Emperor Yizong, the imperial court has lost both internal and external wars, and there are many reasons, but one of them, which is very crucial, is that the soldiers are generals and do not obey the orders of the imperial court.Since Jiashen, the northern captives have rapidly occupied the Central Plains, and the reasons for this are, first, that the northern captives can fight, and second, the generals who hold military power are greedy for life and afraid of death, and are afraid of the enemy to surrender.These people who command the army, control the army, are thoughtful, and lack the courage to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty.In the face of the northern captives, for them, they are still prosperous and rich after surrendering, but for the surname Zhu, they must coexist with the country, so there is no way out.Although I have survived the crisis now, the generals and governors are not credible, and it is inevitable that there will not be another Zheng Zhilong, and I only really believe in you now. ”Previously, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was on guard against the vassal king, mainly because the vassal king was the main threat to the throne, so he had to guard against the vassal king.Now, it is the Manchu Qing who threatens the Ming Dynasty, as well as those warlords and local officials with different surnames, and the threat of the vassal king is much smaller.Therefore, Zhu Yujian decided to loosen the feudal king's bonds, and decided to reuse his two brothers, let them hold power, and then become his arms.Although it may form a hidden danger in the future, but at this time it is obvious that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, Zhu Yujian decided to use the clan to first take back the power that had fallen into his hands, re-establish the authority of the emperor, and other matters will be dealt with later.Zhu Yulu and Zhu Yuyi glanced at each other, understanding that after passing through Fujian, Longwu did not believe in the generals and governors below, and wanted to control the army by himself, so he clenched his fists in a deep voice, "Brother Chen understands!"
