Chapter 262
After checking Zhang Kuang's information, Hao Guangming found that although Zhang Kuang was young, he only appeared on the stage of the late Ming Dynasty as the magistrate of Mianyang in the 16th year of Chongzhen (1643). ) died of illness and took office, during which there were indeed many outstanding military actions.

He fought against Zhang Xianzhong, Shun Jun, and Qing Army, and they all won and lost each other.

In the military, he is not only good at coordinating logistics matters, but also better at ingenious strategies, and he can also subdue many military leaders in Huguang during the Southern Ming Dynasty, which is quite powerful.

Hao Guangming told Zhang Kuang's deeds in history, and Auntie Zhu was also very surprised.

Seeing that Du Yinxi was still waiting, she said: "Since Du Qing said so, let that Zhang Kuang come over and have an audience."

"Thank you Jianguo!"

···
Jinshui Town Wharf.

Zhang Kuang was watching the imperial ship not far away under the surveillance of a group of soldiers of the Royal Forest Army.

When he was in Changsha, he heard Du Yinxi describe the steel-armored imperial boat of Princess Jian Guo, but he was still shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.

Who would have thought before that that a wooden boat could still sail in the water if it was covered with iron armor?

And because of the "steam engine", the warship covered with a layer of steel armor not only did not slow down its sailing speed, but it sailed far faster than a sailing wooden boat.

However, this steel armored warship is nothing compared to the foldable solar lamp and radio station given to Du Yinxi by Princess Jian Guo.

Recalling that a few days ago, when Du Yinxi came to tell him that Princess Kunxing had an edict from the late emperor and was favored by heaven, and that she was Daming's true son, he still laughed at Du Yinxi and didn't want to believe it.

But after seeing the miracle of the lamp and the radio station, he had no choice but to choose to believe Du Yinxi's words.

Otherwise, without knowing He Tengjiao's attitude towards Princess Jianguo, he would not have come to seek refuge with Princess Jianguo.

Because He Tengjiao is now his benefactor, unless he is willing to bear the infamy of ungrateful, otherwise he must be scrupulous about He Tengjiao's choice.

Fortunately, when he followed Du Yinxi to Jiayu County, he heard the news that He Tengjiao was inspecting the place.

This undoubtedly shows that He Tengjiao has met Princess Kunxing and chose to seek refuge.

Thinking about it carefully, with He Tengjiao's character, if Princess Kunxing really possesses supernatural powers as Du Yinxi said, and also has the last emperor's edict, he has no reason not to take refuge in her.

This is to avoid Zhang Kuang's embarrassment.

Now he came to see the princess with Du Yinxi, hoping to be appreciated by the princess and get a bigger stage to show his talents.

When Zhang Kuang was feeling ups and downs, a few female soldiers from the Suzaku Battalion came over and said, "Where is Zhang Kuang, the commander of the Changsha Army Supervisor? The Supervisor is summoned."

"Zhang Kuang is here."

In response, Zhang Kuang followed these female soldiers onto the imperial boat, and met the rumored Princess Aimee Zhu of Kunxing, who "has God's heart and has great supernatural powers".

After only one glance, Zhang Kuang bowed his head, and said in obeisance: "My minister Changsha Supervisor Daozhang Kuang pays homage to Jian Guo Qiantui!"

"Flat body."

"Thank you, Jian Guo."

Aunt Zhu looked at Zhang Kuang, and found that the man's skin was too fair, and he was obviously sick.Then contacting that he died of illness in office in history, it is unavoidable to suspect that he has some serious illness.

But when they first met, she would definitely not ask questions about this aspect, but asked Zhang Kuang's views on the current situation in Huguang, and how Daming should deal with the Shun army and the Qing army in Huguang in the future.

Judging from Zhang Kuang's answer, he also has good strategic vision.

As for the fact that he stood on He Tengjiao's side in history, he was unwilling to give too much trust to the Zhongzhenying camp at once, and made various constraints, most of which came from the innate aversion of the bureaucratic gentry class to the peasant army.

However, Zhu Yuxi is now in charge of this aspect, and has long since decided on the strategy of absorbing and reorganizing the peasant armies from all sides, but it is not the turn of He Tengjiao, Zhang Kuang and others to make a decision on this matter.

Besides, the main personnel of the Loyalty Camp are still in Shaanxi, and they probably won't appear in this time and space.

After the "interview" with Zhang Kuang, Zhu Yuxi was quite satisfied with the person, and after a moment of pondering, she said, "According to my palace's strategic arrangement in Huguang, Changsha will become the rear area in the future.

In this way, with your talents in military strategy, it would be a bit of a waste to serve as the military supervisor in Changsha.

Since Du Qing will be in Wuchang in the future, there will be no one to help him. Since you have experience in Mianyang and other places, you should supervise the army for the various governments in Hubei. "

Although it is still a military supervisor, the prefixes of "Hubei" and "Changsha" obviously have different meanings, and there is a huge gap between the two.

Zhang Kuang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked boldly, "My minister has the audacity to ask Jian Guo, which prefectures in Hubei are specifically referring to?"

Aunt Zhu smiled slightly and said, "It's the prefectures north of Dongting Lake, including Yuezhou and Wuchang.

By the way, I forgot to tell the two of you that Shizhouwei has assigned the Palace to the Chief Secretary of Chongqing, and will no longer belong to Huguang in the future. "

Zhang Kuang didn't pay too much attention to the latter sentence, and was completely excited by Aimi Zhu's previous sentence.

Aimee Zhu's appointment is equivalent to letting him take charge of half of Huguang's military affairs, even half of the governor-general would be an exaggeration.

Because today is the time to use the army, local government affairs have to give way to military affairs, and his right to supervise the military is naturally greater than that of the local government officials.

Unexpectedly, his excitement, coupled with a gust of river wind, suddenly coughed.

Finally coughing and coughing, he couldn't help covering his mouth with a handkerchief.

Feeling relieved, Zhang Kuang immediately pleaded guilty and said, "Your humble minister has disrespected you in front of me, and please ask the prison to come down."

"There is no need to worry about these things on the imperial ship of the palace, Zhang Qing doesn't have to." Zhu Yu waved her hands and asked curiously: "What serious illness does Zhang Qing suffer from?"

Zhang Kuang hesitated for a while, but still replied: "My minister suffers from morbidity."

Aimee Zhu and Hao Guangming were taken aback when they heard this.

Tuberculosis again?

According to Hao Guangming's understanding, if general tuberculosis is caused by acquired conditions, it is mostly due to weak body and weakened immunity.

The weak body is either caused by poor living conditions and long-term overwork, or because I no longer like to wash my body and have bad living habits.

Zhang Kuang was born in a gentry family, so it is obviously impossible for him to get sick because of poor living conditions, so most of them are caused by bad living habits.

However, as long as the private life of the courtiers is not corrupt, the monarch does not need to take care of them.

Hao Guangming told Aimi Zhu all these conjectures, and then said: "Since you know that he has tuberculosis, you can give him medicine.

Judging by his appearance, his illness should not be serious. With the help of later generations of medical treatment, not to mention that he can be cured, he will definitely not die as early as in history. "

Auntie Zhu nodded, and immediately said: "I have some medicines for treating corpses here, although they can't cure them completely, they can also slow down the symptoms.

If Zhang Qing pays attention to self-cultivation and recuperation, even recovery may not be impossible. "

After finishing speaking, Aunt Zhu signaled Liu Zhu to go in and get the medicine.

In the past few days, every time Auntie Zhu went to and from the afterlife, she would bring some medicines along with her, including medicines for tuberculosis.

Zhang Kuang was stunned for a moment, and then immediately bowed: "Thank you, my minister, for giving me the medicine!"

Auntie Zhu nodded slightly, and said again: "These medicines have some side effects, but compared to your illness, it's nothing."

Afterwards, Liu Zhu gave the medicine to Zhang Kuang.

Zhang Kuang thanked him again, and prepared to leave the imperial boat with Du Yinxi.

The imperial boat is now equivalent to the emperor's palace, unless Auntie Zhu agrees, otherwise, it is impossible for the two of them to stay on the imperial boat as courtiers.

Unexpectedly, when the two of them got up, they saw a sailing speedboat speeding across the river.

Before arriving at the pier, the soldiers carrying the flag representing the "urgent military situation" shouted: "Urgent military situation! Li Zicheng led the army to attack Qianjiang, and the two commanders-in-chief Ma Jinzhong and Wang Yuncheng were defeated and retreated to Mianyang. Down the Han River, intending to attack the Han River!"
