From Ninghongbo Camp in the north of Guangze County to Jianghu Mountain, and even since landing in Min'an Town, we have seen too many people forming villages to protect themselves. This is very common in China today.

, some resist taxes, some resist the Qing Dynasty, and even some do both.

There are all kinds of things, but most of their figures will not be recorded in history books. For example, Chen Kai mentioned when he ridiculed Ma Degong that in the Siming Mountain area and eastern Zhejiang, "there are more than 600 large and small, isolated villages, distant forts, and Yiyi Banners".

"The wealth and resources are far away in the sea, so don't be stingy", but among them, those who can really be recorded in the history books are only a few such as Wang Yiwangjiang of Dalan Mountain, Xue Ao, Feng Jingdi, and Yu Guowang of Xinchang. More

Fortunately, some of them were able to leave a few words in the county annals and genealogy, but the vast majority of them simply disappeared in the long river of history.

Traveling to Jianghu Mountain, more than 30 years later, Yang Yibao's anti-Qing rebel army stationed here due to the river machine. Tens of thousands of people were stationed here, and wooden walls were erected to defend it. After the Qing army suppressed it, they moved the Guixi County magistrate.

Stationed here. However, at this time, there were many cultivated fields in the mountains and on the upper slopes. Hong Guoyu led the way, and Chen Kai and his party soon arrived at the village where Jie Chongxi was camping.

Here, the wood used as the stockade wall is sparsely arranged. It is not compact or organized, but it is still a barrier. At the entrance of the stockade, men and women are coming in and out, most of them are carrying hoes and burdens, and some are heading towards the village.

We walked to the fields outside the village, and some were coming back from there. The only people who had the same goals were these men, women, and children. All of them had their hair tied in right knots, and most of them had t-shirts and net scarves, just like what we had seen in northern Fujian before.

There were only a lot more Confucian scholars like Tao Qian in the past, and they looked like ordinary people. At this time, it seemed that Chen Kai and his party had shaved their heads and changed into long robes and mandarin jackets, which was obviously awkward.

The official office of the Governor of Jiangxi is just a larger house without even a courtyard wall. At first glance, it seems not much different from the simple residences in the village.

Stepping into it, the first-rank official from Xianhebuzi sitting above him did not look as gray-haired, capable and determined as Chen Kai expected, and his expression was even more courageous. What Chen Kai saw

It is extremely rare among civil servants.

The Secretary of the Ministry of War and the right deputy governor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Governor of Jiangxi, Mr. Jie Chongxi, Mr. Jie Lao, whose nickname is Wannian, was born in Jiejiafang, Linchuan, and was a Jinshi in the tenth year of Chongzhen. He first entered the officialdom and served in Funing Prefecture, Fujian.

Zhizhou, an honest official, aware of the people's sentiments, lenient and strict, has the reputation of "pure water, love is like spring". The Qing army entered the pass, and Jie Chongxi's journey was all because of the fight against the Qing Dynasty. He had a firm attitude and fought hard.

Shi Ye dared to fight side by side with the soldiers, and gradually gained the trust of the two emperors Longwu and Yongli, the imperial court, and various Ming troops and rebels in Jiangxi.

Regarding Chen Kai's arrival, Jie Chongxi had already received the news, but this time he put down his official duties and waited here, but it was because Hong Guoyu reported Chen Kai's name. At this moment, when Chen Kai entered, he was bowing politely, and Jie Chongxi

Chongxi did not ask for help. He stood up and helped Chen Kai up with his own hands. He then introduced loudly to everyone present: "This is Magistrate Chen Kai who saved hundreds of thousands of people in Guangzhou!"

With a sound of "Ouch", everyone stood up in shock. Only Hong Guoyu seemed to be a little confused. It was not that they had never heard of Chen Kai's name, but they were not impressed by it. However, Jie Chongxi had a court meeting a few days ago.

The envoys who came one after another mentioned this matter when they came to express their condolences, but before they had time to tell Hong Guoyu, Chen Kai himself arrived in Jiangxi first.

"I don't dare, it's just that the time is right for me to be demoted."

"Prefect Chen is too modest. It's not as simple as just timing it. Du Yonghe's bullet clearly states that he did it deliberately."

"Hey, I knew Du Yonghe wouldn't make me happy."

Chen Kai had a look of helplessness on his face, but Jie Chongxi laughed and said: "If there were a few more people in this world like Magistrate Chen who were so dedicated to doing good deeds, doing good deeds, and doing great things, the country would not be reduced to what it is today.

.What I am interested in is whether Governor Chen came here with deliberate intentions to relieve my Jiangxi Master and the people of Jiangxi from their difficulties?"

"What Zhijun said is true, and we also want to hear Magistrate Chen's opinions."

"This is a very good thing to say."

Jie Chongxi is not like other civil servants, maybe because he has been in contact with military commanders for a long time, or maybe because he has a bold temperament. At this moment, he speaks loudly without any hesitation, as if he really wants to hear the thoughts of Chen Kai, a man who has created miracles.

, the power is used to attack the jade. At this time, Yi Wen and Yi Wu echoed. Hong Guoyu had already mentioned it on the way. These two people should be Jie Chongxi's assistants, the right minister of the Ministry of War and the academician of the Hanlin Academy, Fu Dingquan and Dingnan.

Hou Cao Dahao.

The former, who is about forty years old, looks like an outspoken and loyal minister. According to Chen Kai's memory, he joined Jie Chongxi in revolting against the Qing Dynasty and helped Jie Chongxi contact the generals. The latter, on the other hand, seemed to be...

Unlike Hong Guoyu, he looks more like a Confucian general. In fact, he was a general of Fang Guoan, Duke of Jing State, whom Lu relied on when he first came to power. However, his father Cao Shenfang was a learned man, and Cao Dahao inherited his teachings at a young age.

He is not as vulgar and uncivilized as ordinary warriors.

But what impressed Chen Kai the most about Cao Dahao were some of the records he had read before setting off. Among them, the full title of Cao Dahao's official position was "The Imperial Order to Restore and Suppress Zhejiang, Zhijiang, and Fujian Governor-General Controlled the Thirty-six Civil and Military Battalions, audited the merits and demerits of generals, and contacted various departments."

He was appointed as a road official and a righteous soldier and horse, and was given the title of python jade, a square sword, a food and salary manager, and a minister of the Ministry of War. He was appointed as General Pinghai, General of the Indian Army, and General Military Officer of the Chinese Army. He was appointed Shaobao and Taibao of the Crown Prince, and he was named Marquis of the South. "Originally, Chen Kai thought that he

The official title of "recruiting generals to join the army at the camp, in charge of the military affairs bureau, counselor of the Fujian Procuratorate, Zhangquan branch patrol and prefect of Zhangzhou Prefecture" is already long enough, but now it seems that it is just a small witch, and even others

Less than half the word count.

Speaking of which, Chen Kai is quite famous. After all, he is a mastermind of Shang Kexi. With this opponent as a foil, he can indeed scream louder than killing "little people" like Wang Bangjun and Ma Degong.

The current situation of these leaders in Jiangxi is also caused by their repeated defeats and defeats over the years. Even in recent years, they have formed a stronghold to defend themselves in the eastern Jiangxi area, thinking that it is a long-term solution, but it has also been many years.

It is an inevitable choice after fighting hard and still being unable to open up the situation.

It is undeniable that their current situation is very difficult, and they are always in a precarious situation in the face of the Qing army's suppression of the capitals of three provinces. Chen Kai did not expect that Jie Chongxi and others would be so concerned. Is it because they trust his ability or because their situation is so real?

He didn't understand that he couldn't allow them to continue their pleasantries. But since it was already like this, Chen Kai didn't hesitate and directly promoted his plan.

"To be honest, our army has a good momentum of development in southern Fujian and eastern Guangdong. Only this year, in the battle of Xiamen, we completely wiped out Fujian Youlu Zhenbiao and Fujian Fubiao Division, beheaded the general soldiers and horses, Deggong and Xingquan Daohuang

Shu; then they captured Yongning Acropolis and Chongwu Qianhusuo City, seizing a large amount of grain and grass; by the time Xianguan set out in May, they defeated the Zhangzhou Imperial Army in Cizao, and this year we should be able to officially open up the situation in southern Fujian."
