"According to what I see, our army has opened up the Hanjiang waterway, first from the south and then from the north. Chaozhou City only needs to be on the defensive."

After Chen Kai argued about the appointment, the two quickly returned to the rhythm of discussing military and political affairs. Today, Zheng Chenggong's control area includes Nan'ao Island, Dongshan Island, Chenghai County, Nanyangzhai and

In addition to the sea route, the five areas of Chaozhou Fucheng are connected together by the Hanjiang waterway. This is why they had to attack Xu Long and Yang Hu first.

The Seven Great Bandits of Chaohai have relied on the power of their successful raid on Chaozhou to eradicate two forces in Chaozhou. Even if there is a recurrence, it will only be a long time later. Moreover, great changes in Guangdong are imminent, and Yang Hu is also under Chen Bin's supervision.

Next, this will take a long time to come, it will probably be a long, long time later, and it may not even actually happen.

When Chen Kai said this, Zheng Chenggong also nodded and said: "As Jingcheng said, our army comes from the sea. It is a sure-fire strategy to capture the coast first and then enter the inland. It's like a chariot with a heavy load, and I won't take it."

.”

Che Renzhong suppressed King Yi's army in Jieyang County, and then went north to attack Wu Liuqi, the strongest among the Chaozhou thieves, and did so while being surrounded by wolves. It is no wonder that such a thing was so famous in history.

Hao Shangjiu used a ridiculous excuse to trick him and kill him.

Nowadays, Zheng Chenggong and Chen Kai have replaced Hao Shangjiu's historical actions, marched south to Chaozhou, and connected these point-shaped control areas into a line. The next step is to expand the line into an area, with greater depth.

, many things can be carried out better.

Regarding Chaozhou, Chen Kai actually had various ideas about how to build it, how to expand the output of this province, and how to use the territory of such a province to support more troops. But now that he has decided to give up this

official position, then let the successor do the rest. He has more important things to do.

An hour later, in a side courtyard of the Chaozhou General Military Mansion, Ye Yiyun and Chen Ding prostrated themselves on the ground, listening to the relevant personnel appointments made by Zheng Chenggong in the name of recruiting the general.

"We hereby appoint Ye Yiyun, a scholar from Xiamen, as the prefect of Chaozhou Prefecture, and Chen Ding, a scholar from Tong'an, as the tutor of the Prefecture. I hope that he will..."

Ye Yiyun couldn't hear the rest of the words clearly. It wasn't that the voice of the person who conveyed the appointment had become softer, or that there was something wrong with his ears. It was just that the appointment was too shocking to him.

In fact, ever since the news came that Chen Kai had captured Chaozhou, Ye Yiyun had thought about how he would act if he were appointed as the prefect of Chaozhou. Even after Zheng Chenggong hinted at him, he also thought about it.

How can he show his talents in Chenghai County and prove his ability to Zheng Chenggong and everyone. But when the appointment was issued, everything seemed to be reversed. Ye Yiyun's first feeling after hearing all this was not

What joy or excitement is, on the contrary, is incomprehensible, extremely incomprehensible.

"What about Chen Canjun?"

Without having time to thank him, after hearing the appointment, Ye Yiyun immediately stood up and questioned the man. Even Chen Ding beside him was stunned, surprised by Chen Kai's resignation, and even more surprised by Ye Yiyun's.

Performance - They obviously don't have such a good relationship. What happened to Ye Yiyun, who usually looked down on Chen Kai?

"Regarding Chen Canjun, the country's surname was upgraded from the weapons workshop to the weapons bureau. Chen Shenjun was still appointed as the recruiting general to join the army and manage the affairs of the weapons bureau. He was also given the title of Tongzhi of Zhangzhou Prefecture and was also in charge of Nan'ao Island and Tongshan.

The civil affairs affairs of the institute. Uncle Hong, who was originally in charge of related affairs, also took charge of Chaozhou’s maritime trade affairs.”

The visitor was not dissatisfied at all because of Ye Yiyun's astonishing performance. Maybe he didn't show it, or maybe Ye Yiyun's surprise was exactly what he was puzzled about, so it was more understandable. He was Ye Yiyun and

Chen Ding explained, received thanks and reward money, and turned around to leave. However, the two of them were still shocked by Chen Kai's appointment.

"Are you the same acquaintance of Zhangzhou Prefecture?"

Ye Yiyun is very surprised. Unlike Chaozhou, Zheng Chenggong's troops have almost no occupation area in Zhangzhou Prefecture. If you have to count, the eastern and northern parts of Nan'ao Island, plus Tongshan Station, although they are guard units, there are also some

It belongs to the boundaries of Zhao'an County, Zhangzhou Prefecture. However, just these two incomplete areas, which are roughly the size of a few towns, are under the jurisdiction of Zhao'an County. A fifth-grade prefectural magistrate is specially appointed to govern it, but it is overqualified.

.

"Guo Xing probably didn't want Chen Canjun's grade to drop too much, so as not to be criticized by others, and probably also to avoid his own psychological difficulties."

Chen Ding said this, but Ye Yiyun shook his head and asked in a low voice: "It shouldn't have been so troublesome in the first place. Although Chen Canjun was a boy, the plan to seize Chaozhou City and even open the Hanjiang waterway was his own.

The former was planned, and the former was carried out by him personally, which led to today's results. It is natural that this position of prefect should be used to reward merits. If others don't mention it, at least I, Ye Yiyun, am convinced!"

It sounds a bit wrong to use official positions to reward merit, but in today's era, if you occupy a village and claim to be the censor, the court you obey will be eager to send you the official seal. Chen Kai personally won one

Fucheng is just a magistrate's official position, but it's not much different.

Ye Yiyun didn't mention the second half of the sentence, but Chen Ding could also understand its meaning. Ye Yiyun's character was extremely proud. He was proud to be named on the gold medal list at the age of thirty, just entering his thirties.

There were also figures such as Wei Zaode, the chief minister of the Chongzhen Dynasty cabinet, Lu Ruoteng, and Liu Zhongzao, who served as senior officials in the Southern Ming Dynasty. Originally, he was extremely dismissive of a child like Chen Kai, but after defrauding Chaozhou,

With his self-awareness, he also knew that if he were to plan this action, he would not be able to do a better job than Chen Kai, and he might even be completely unable to compare with him.

Because of this, Ye Yiyun was very satisfied with his original position as Chenghai County Magistrate. At least he had an opportunity to display his talents independently. But now that his official position is higher, he always feels like he is being given a favor.

How could he not feel awkward?

"No, I'm going to find Guo Xing and ask Guo Xing to take his life back!"

Ye Yiyun did what he said and ran out of the small courtyard with a long stride. Chen Ding was stunned for a moment. He tried to chase but couldn't catch up. But by the time he arrived at the festival hall where Zheng Chenggong was working, Ye Yiyun had already

After crossing the threshold, he walked out in despair, with a look of conflict on his face, as if he no longer knew what to do.

"Zaijiu, you are too hasty!"

They all knew Zheng Chenggong's temperament, and it was extremely difficult to get Zheng Chenggong back. Ye Yiyun walked out with such a look on his face, Chen Ding already said something bad, but Ye Yiyun shook his head, and then said

Chen Dingyan said: "I asked Guo Xing, and Guo Xing said that this was Chen Shenjun's opinion. He said that only by letting me, a Jinshi, serve as the prefect, can I be justified and can I ensure that Master Wang will not be ridiculed by those villains for being a Caotai team."

"ah?"

After getting this answer, Ye Yiyun seemed to have been hit hard, and even Chen Ding was stunned on the spot. The two of them were silent. After a long time, Ye Yiyun finally calmed down, but...

He grabbed Chen Ding's hand and was about to drag him out.

"Zaijiu, where are you going again?"

"Shang Tu, I really didn't expect that he is just a boy who could not even be a low-ranking official in normal times, but now he can give up his official position as a fourth-rank official for a big event. This sentiment has already been

He is an unparalleled national warrior!"

Speaking of this, Ye Yiyun, who was quite excited at first, seemed a little shy, and then said to Chen Ding: "Chen Canjun can be so loyal to the country, it is because I have underestimated the heroes of the world. To be honest, the unpleasant things in the past have

Yes, I am really embarrassed to visit Chen Shenjun again, so I have no choice but to go with you, Qiu Shangtu. I am not sorry for anything else, but for the slight I gave you in the past few months."

Hearing this, Chen Ding also smiled with emotion and said: "Zaijiu, Jingcheng has always been free and easy. You just rarely communicate with him on weekdays, so you don't have to be like this."

"no."

Ye Yiyun shook his head solemnly and said: "You don't understand, it's one thing what he thinks about it. If I don't say this apology, I won't be able to pass this test!"

After a while, Chen Kai started to pack his things. Chen Kai, who was waiting for Ye Yiyun to come over to receive the seal letter the next day, felt the pride of this Xiamen Jinshi. In fact, Chen Kai didn't take it to heart at all about the previous unhappiness.

It's just that their personalities don't get along. But when he met him today, he couldn't help but look at this person with admiration.

Apart from other things, a person with such a temper, even if he is an enemy, will never resort to any dirty tricks to compete with others. What's more, after today's scene, it is not that they cannot become friends in the first place.

.

"Jingcheng, you have always achieved outstanding results in the weapons workshop. However, I believe that in this Chaozhou Prefecture, I will not be far behind you."

"Then, let's work hard individually and strive to achieve more results."

Having said this, Chen Kai solemnly stretched out his right hand, palm upward, in front of Ye Yiyun and Chen Ding, and then shouted loudly: "Establish a heart for heaven and earth!"

Ye Yiyun was also very excited when Chen Kai was like this, and he held it in Chen Kai's hand.

"Establish a destiny for the people!"

The two held hands and then looked at Chen Ding, who also smiled and held their hands.

"Continue the unique learning for the Holy Spirit!"

"Create peace for all eternity!"

Chen Kai shouted out the final sentence of Hengqu's four sentences, and Ye Yiyun and Chen Ding also echoed.
Chapter completed!
