One day is happy, and it is getting late.

Chongming Island is immersed in darkness.

Zuo Ruo and Zhai Zhe kept talking about the lamp before leaving. Although he was a little unhappy, he was still convinced by Zhai Zhe. At least since he met Zhai, this person has been creating miracles. Now they need a bigger miracle.

When he turned out of the guard post outside the county government office, he saw two people protruding their heads there.

Zuo Ruo didn't see it very clearly, and tried to shout loudly: "Gu San! Gu Biao!"

The two men shivered and walked in front of them a few steps. Gu Sanmazi walked in front and said with a smirk: "General Zuo Shen, are you inside?"

"exist."

Gu San raised his chest and said, "I want to ask for some things to report to you."

Zuo Ruo smiled knowingly, pointed to the light inside, and turned around and left.

After Zhai Zhe came here, the various factions on Chongming Island had to be reshuffled, and it was impossible for him to fight each other like before. His conversation just now was just a preview.

The two bowed and watched Zuo Ruo leave: "Thank you, General Zuo Shen!"

Although Zuo Ruo's battle in Songjiang Prefecture could not completely change the situation, he developed the reputation of the soldiers and horses in eastern Zhejiang, which made the Qing emperors frightened. This was also a loss of the east corner and a muddle of the earth.

The lights in the county government do not go out until midnight, and it is easy to sleep on Chongming Island at night.

The next morning, in front of the county government, soldiers kept knocking on each other, and replaced the original sign of the county government with the sign of the general Pinglu's government office, which was announced that Zhai Zhe had taken over Chongming Island.

At the hour of Hai, the General's Office summoned the generals to discuss matters, including Jing Benche, the magistrate of Chongming Island County, and other civil officials, who also received orders, and Zhang Huangyan attended the record.

Seeing everyone coming in a hurry, Zhai Zhe looked majestic and did not say a word of greeting, so he directly issued an order.

"According to the order of King Lu, the troops of various anti-Qing in Jiangnan were controlled, and Gu San and Gu Biao ordered the navy of Chongming Island to rectify the Chongming Island, and be responsible for the garrison of Chongming Island, and all local warships were controlled."

"Shen Tingyang and Chen Huwei's troops will enter the Yangtze River Estuary tomorrow, set up a water camp on Jingjiang Island, cut off the Yangtze River route in Jiangyin area, and contact the besieged Jiangyin City, and contact the water bandits along the river to attack the Qing army."

Zhai Zhe bowed to Wang Zhiren, who was sitting on the right, and said, "If you cut off the Yangtze River waterway, you need to ask General Wang for help."

"Should!" Wang Zhiren replied loudly.

Zhai Zhe softly instructed: "Yangzhong Island and Jingjiang Island are both in the Yangtze River. Although they are in the middle of the river, it is very dangerous to stay for a long time. The Qing throne may attack by boat. However, we must stop the canal transportation this year. Don't rush to enter Yangzhong Island first. First, find out the time when the canal transportation ships are walking, and then target them."

The Yangtze River waterway was originally handled by Zheng's Navy, but the current situation is urged, and Zheng's Navy is still far away. Without Zhang's butcher Zhang, he cannot eat a pig with hair. The Wusong Navy's combat power is not as good as the Zheng's, and he is more than enough to fight with the Qing army.

Wang Zhiren and Zhai Zhe have no affiliation. Although he, the general of Pinglu, had the power to control the general in name, in fact, all the soldiers and horses are fighting on their own. The reason why Wang Zhiren was on Chongming Island was because he still had the conscience to drive away the Qing barbarians. It was precisely because of this that Zhai Zhe wanted to transfer Zuo Ruo away and leave Zhang Mingzhen, who was good at dealing with relationships. If the generals in this situation cannot work together, the Qing barbarians will take advantage of the loopholes.

At present, Zhai Zhe is the only person who can let the people in Jiangnan see the hope of fighting the Qing emperors. Zhai Zhe's name is on the manifesto of the anti-shave orders scattered everywhere.

This is reputation!

When literati such as Xia Yunyi and Xu Fuyuan met Zhai again, they were all respectful. Zhang Huangyan stood beside him and made military records.

"Wu Ning Hou must have a plan to stay on Chongming Island. Deputy General Zhang's war against Songjiang also depends on your navy. Summer grain will be launched. You may harass the villages and counties along the coast and on both sides of the Huangpu River to collect grain and grass, but you cannot enter Taihu Lake, nor can you go deep into the hinterland of the south of the Yangtze River."

When talking to Wang Zhiren, Zhai Zhe was polite and casual, just like an old friend of many years.

Wang Zhiren reciprocates his favor and bows, "Abide by the order!"

"General Wang, Deputy General Zhang, and Chongming Island will be handed over to you. Remember, don't ask for merit, but don't ask for no mistakes."

Zhang Mingzhen also stood up and agreed. He raised an army to Songjiang, but Zuo Ruo took the first merit, and he was a little embarrassed.

Zhai Zhe turned to Jing Benche, who was uneasy and said, "The King of Lu is in Shaoxing and needs talents urgently. There are too many people in Chongming Island, and will gradually migrate to eastern Zhejiang. Please ask the magistrate of Jing County to accompany him to serve in the Jianguo Mansion."

Logically, Zhai Zhe did not have the power, but this sentence came out of his mouth, and no one present dared to question it. Jing Benche's two thousand soldiers were handed over to Gu Sanmazi. This man had been operating in Chongming Island for many years and was deprived of power this time. Only by transferring him away can Zhai Zhe feel at ease.

Zhang Huangyan recorded one by one, wrote it into a notice, covered with the prints of General Pinglu, and posted it to the county government office.

Jing Benche cleaned up the fine lines and boarded the warship early the next morning, leaving with the first people to eastern Zhejiang. Xia Yunyi and Xu Fuyuan were unwilling to go away and decided to stay in Chongming to contact the gentry in Songjiang.

Zhai Zhe took a boat to inspect the people on the four islands of Chongming to calm the people's hearts.

Chen Huwei and Shen Tingyang led the navy to Jingjiang Island.

Shen Tingyang was a civil servant. He asked Chen Huwei to join forces with him to enter Jingzhou Island, which was actually allowing Chen Huwei to slowly annex his two thousand soldiers and more than one hundred warships. Gu Sanmazi and Gu Biao were in charge of the former Chongming Island soldiers, and nearly 4,000 soldiers were stationed in Chongming Island.

Both navy troops will completely belong to the General Pinglu, and only Zhai Zhe will follow the order.

People are in Chongming, and their hearts are in eastern Zhejiang.

The main purpose of Zhai Zhe's trip was to see the true views of the ministers in eastern Zhejiang on the dispute between Tang and Lu, and to see what kind of **** the King of Tang could have come up with. Only by resolving the dispute between Tang and Lu, could the Ming Dynasty work together.

In fact, he was already waiting for a price, just to see if the Tang King was on the way.

The King of Lu could only bring out so many things. Many places in the Ming Dynasty had already supported King Tang. The Governor of Jiangxi received the order of King Tang. The rebels in southern Anhui also submitted a letter to King Tang. He did not even dare to advance there without authorization. Continuing to support King Lu would only cause chaos in the overall situation.

However, he cannot come forward to forcing King Lu to retire from the throne of state. Shaoxing has a cabinet, and if the civil officials can be united, the Ming Dynasty would not be so good at the moment. Others can avoid this matter on Chongming Island. Besides, with King Lu, he will be able to bargain with King Tang.

This is the government affairs, which composes each other and presents their bright and beautiful image to the world.

Zhai Zhe sometimes feels that he is hypocritical, and since he takes advantage of Lu Xiangsheng's reputation, he has embarked on this path.

But if not, how can we reverse the overall situation in the world? Most heroes die on the battlefield. Only the waist knife given to him by Mr. Lu reminds him every moment that he should not forget his original intention, so that he can always be done!

Chongming Island is not calm.

It was only three days later, when the sun was just rising, there was a noisy in front of the government office.

"We want to see the general, we want to see the general!"

A dozen people shouted that they wanted to rush in, but were blocked by soldiers at the door.

Fang Jin hurried into the mansion and reported: "Hou Dong from Jiading County led a group of gentry to ask for a meeting at the door!"

Without seeing them, Zhai Zhe knew what these people were doing. His head swelled up and he must have urged him to march into Songjiang Mansion. These people are not afraid of death, but because they are not afraid of death, it is difficult to deal with now.

"You go and ask your gentlemen to sit down in the side hall, and I will be there later."

Not long after Fang entered and left, it became quiet outside.

Zhai Zhe took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and then went to the side hall, and there was no difference between following the battlefield.

As soon as he entered the door, Hou Dong strode to him, "Please go to Songjiang Prefecture."

"Don't worry everyone!"

Before Zhai Zhe finished speaking, Hou Dong knelt down and kowtowed, "Li Chengdong hunted and killed the people in Jiading. Although those people were not killed by me, they were because I suffered a disaster. Please help the general to save them." A dozen people followed him and knelt down.

If I had known this was the situation, I would have no good idea if I really met Zhai.

"Dear sirs, do you think I don't want to save the people of the Ming Dynasty?" Zhai Zhe shook his sleeves and sighed.

Hou Dong's eyes were red and he angrily blamed him, "There are 40,000 to 50,000 soldiers and horses on Chongming Island. Is it impossible to fight against the Qing emperors? Is the general afraid of thieves like a tiger?" He also had the old habit of literati looking down on military generals, not to mention being angry.

Zhai Zhe shook his head speechlessly. The only ones who could fight in Chongming Island were Zuo Ruo and Zhang Mingzhen's 15,000 soldiers, and most of them were new recruits. Wang Zhiren's troops could still fight in the water, and when they were put on the shore, they could only wave flags and shout, but he could not say these words.

While he was asking questions, a thin middle-aged man stood up from behind the gentry, coughed lightly, and sighed: "Mr. Hou, don't make things difficult for the general. Do you know how many Qing captives are in Songjiang now?"

The thin man spread his fingers and calculated: "Boluo has led 30,000 troops to support Songjiang, Li Chengdong has more than 20,000 people, Liu Liangzuo led 30,000 people to besiege Jiangyin City, and Suzhou Admiral Wu Shengzhao is only marching for two days away from Songjiang. Isn't it a moth to fly into the flames when I get ashore?"

Hou Dong turned around and scolded: "Zhao Yucheng, what do you mean? Did you just watch those fellow villagers die under the sword of the Qing barbarians?"

The thin man shed tears: "I am also from Songjiang. My wife is still in Songjiang and my life is uncertain, but she has left the green mountains and is not afraid of burning firewood. General Zhai will definitely lead us to drive away the Qing army and recover Jiangnan."

There was a silence in the side hall. The squire did not expect that there was an opponent in their team. They were condemned in their hearts because of their fellow countrymen. Zhao Yucheng spoke as a victim and was more likely to gain their recognition.

"Mr. Hou, Zhai Zhe promised here that he would drive away the Qing throne and restore Jiangnan within three years!" Zhe was passionate and echoed the thin man.

The thin man leaned over and kowtowed, "I wish to serve under the lord's tent."

More than a dozen gentry looked at each other, all occupied it, exchanged greetings for a while, and left embarrassedly.

The thin man left with the gentry shortly after, he returned to the government office to ask for a meeting, and Fang Jin led him in.

When the man saw Zhai Zhe, he bowed and said, "The young actor Zhao Yucheng, a native of Songjiang, the people he just said are the truth, not lies."

"You are well-informed!"

Zhao Yucheng smiled awkwardly: "I went ashore with the soldiers on the island a few days ago. I was most familiar with the three religions and all the various abilities in Songjiang Prefecture." He prepared carefully for so long and was even willing to take the risk to go ashore, just to show it in front of Zhai Zhe. Zuo Ruo admired him without understanding, so he could only defect to his larger master.

Zhai Zhe nodded slightly and asked, "How many people did Li Chengdong kill in Jiading?"

“As far as I know, there are at least five or six thousand people.”

Zhai Zhe looked at this skinny scholar with a cobra-like light flashing in his eyes.

"You want to play for me?"
