Nanming Yiming

Chapter 62 Huzhou Raiders
Xia Wanchun continued: "There are rumors that the Qing government has reactivated Zheng Zhilong's generals to rest the navy in Dengzhou to build warships. The specific situation is not yet known!"

Qian Mo said: "It seems that the Qing army is preparing to pull out Chongming, but building naval warships is not a one-time thing. As long as Chongming's navy is still there, the Qing army will have nothing to do with Chongming Island."

"How is Jinshanwei's situation? What's the Qing army doing?"

Liu Yichen said: "The Tianxiong Department dispatched 1000 people to station in Jinshan Weicheng, but the restoration work of Jinshanwei is quite slow."

Qian Mo asked again: "How is the movement of the Qing army in Hangzhou?"

Liu Yichen said: "After the Marquis of Dingxi occupied Chongming, the Ming armies in northern Zhejiang were also ready to move. Hangzhou sent 1000 green battalions to support Ningbo and Taizhou to monitor the Ming armies in Zhoushan and Siming Mountain."

"The Qing army in Hangzhou at this time has less than 8000 people, but the strength of the Eight Banners stationed in Hangzhou still cannot be underestimated."

Qian Mo said: "Previously, Jiaxing was empty of troops, and Hangzhou didn't send any reinforcements. It seems that Xiao Qiyuan is already at the end of his rope."

"Qian Ning, what's up with Jin Shenghuan from Nanchang?"

Qian Ning said: "Sure enough, as Governor Qian expected, Jiangxi governor Zhang Yutian and Jin Shenghuan's relationship is very tense, and Jin Shenghuan may really turn around anyway."

Qian Mo said: "Jin Shenghuan almost single-handedly conquered the whole of Jiangxi for the Manchus. The Manchus only gave him a general soldier, so it would be strange if he didn't fight back?"

"If Jin Shenghuan really raises troops against the Qing Dynasty, I guess Su Song and the Eight Banners in Hangzhou will be attracted to part of it. At that time, it will be the best time for my rebel army to attack the city."

"How many Qing troops are there in the direction of Huzhou? Be sure to find out. The intelligence department sends as many troops as possible to break into the Qing army in Huzhou."

Liu Yichen said: "The Qing army in Huzhou is also empty of troops. There are about 1200 people in Huzhou Prefecture, about 800 in Changxing, Anji, and Deqing counties. The entire Huzhou Prefecture has no more than 2000 troops, and most of them are old and weak."

Qian Mo said: "Before, my Taihu Rebel Army had been haunting the Susong area. The Qing army in the Hujia area was repeatedly withdrawn. Now Huzhou is indeed empty of troops. It is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"Liu Yichen, you are fully in charge of Zhejiang's intelligence department. You must thoroughly find out the situation in Huzhou, especially the property situation of those big traitors. You must learn from the Jiaxing government's lesson and send more spies to find out for me."

Liu Yichen said: "Please rest assured, Governor, we know the traitor's mansions in Huzhou very well, but there is no place like Tianjiazhuang in Huzhou."

After all, everyone burst into laughter, after all, like Tian's father and son colluding with officials and businessmen, how can we always meet big local tyrants who are evil.

At this time, Gu Yanwu also added: "The generals in Huzhou also contacted to see if there is anything that can be done anyway. Although there seem to be a lot of rebels now, the main first-class battalion is only 3000 people, and they are stationed in Tianjiazhuang. In Tianmu Mountain, Taihu Lake and other places, there are actually not many troops that can mobilize to attack Huzhou."

Qian Mo said to Liu Yichen: "What brother Ning said is very true, Liu Yichen, you can send someone to infiltrate first, but don't startle the snake, so as not to leak the news."

Qian Mo said to Gu Yanwu again: "Brother Ning, Tianjiazhuang is now the most important base of my Susong Governor's Mansion. Firearms manufacturing and other workshops are all in Tianjiazhuang, and there are bastions and Shenji battalion guards. You, Su Song, should be stationed in Tianjiazhuang as an envoy, and be in charge of everything in Tianjiazhuang."

"There is no prison for now, and the inspectors of the various battalions in the Governor's Mansion will trouble Brother Ning."

"Qian An's law enforcement battalion is under the command of brother Ning. There are a lot of new recruits recently, and the law enforcement of military regulations must not be relaxed."

Gu Yanwu said: "I have made a decision to live up to it, and the governor will cultivate it!"

Liu Yichen said: "Jiaxing Lu Zhifu sent someone to send a letter, saying that those traitors who were exterminated before had [-] mu of fertile land in Jiaxing, and we can find someone to go to the household deed."

Qian Mo said: "My Governor's Mansion now has a lot of industries, so it's time to make a good plan."

"Qian Ning, the operation and income of the various strongholds under the Intelligence Department are still linked to the Intelligence Department, but the accounts and expenses must be clear. You and Liu Yichen will formulate a detailed charter, and then report to Governor Xia."

"For the time being, the governor's office will no longer allocate money to the intelligence department. After that, the development of the intelligence department must rely on your own income. It is best to have a monthly surplus to support the treasury."

Qian Ning and Liu Yichen looked at each other, thinking: The second young master finally knows how to tighten the money bag, I must fully support it!

So he gritted his teeth and said: "Please rest assured, the supervisor, our intelligence department will definitely not delay the intelligence work, and promise to pay at least 5000 taels of silver to the treasury every month."

Qian Mo said: "Commander Qian has used his heart. The treasury paid 8 taels of silver for your intelligence department. If you return the money within a year, I will credit you with great credit."

"However, the intelligence department is in the initial stage, and the expansion of the intelligence network and intelligence investigation cannot be delayed in order to hand over the money. The money should be spent. The problem that can be solved with money is not a problem. Important matters must be reported to Governor Xia first. Ask for instructions."

He also said to Qian Buer: "President Qian, although the intelligence department's stronghold is linked to the intelligence department, but the verification of the accounts must be in charge of the chief minister's office."

"Governor Xia is in charge of the Intelligence Department, and the audit of the intelligence department's accounts must be reported to Governor Xia."

Qian Mo said to Xia Wanchun: "The Intelligence Department is extremely important to the governor's office, please take care of Xiaoyin."

Xia Wanchun said: "Governor Qian, don't worry, Xiaoyin will definitely live up to her mission."

Qian Mo doesn't have so much money to build an intelligence network, so for the time being, the intelligence department can only generate income by itself, but it must be properly regulated.Otherwise, this area will become a huge corruption spot in the future. Of course, there must be appropriate rewards for those in charge of good management, otherwise, who will work hard for you?
Xia Wanchun had to discuss the specific regulations with the Intelligence Department in detail.

In the future, a special tax inspection department will have to be set up. Right now, he is still a roving revolutionary regime, so these can only be put aside for now.

Then he said to Xia Wanchun and Qian Bu'er: "I will let Governor Xia and Governor Qian set up an industry department under the Yamen to be responsible for the industrial management of Tianjiazhuang, Tianmu Mountain and other places. Come out with a charter."

"In addition, the 1 mu of fertile land in Jiaxing no longer need to be listed in the names of those businessmen. The chief secretary will directly take it over. If there are insufficient manpower, they can be contracted to those businessmen for management."

In addition, another batch of grain will be purchased this month, the world will change, the more grain the better.

Then he said to Lu Shanhai: "General Lu Shen, how is the camp on Tianmu Mountain going?"

Lu Shanhai said: "The camp in Mogan Mountain has been repaired and can accommodate 2 people. The camp in Tianmu Mountain is still under construction."

Qian Mo said: "Then first reinforce the Moganshan camp with "fairy lime", and build a small one according to Lingbao's requirements."

After the construction of Tianjiabao is completed, I will transfer the engineering battalion to you. We still have to find a way to let the Qing army attack us, so as to consume their troops. "
