The welcome banquet was held yesterday. Chen Hui, Hong Xu, Zhang Jin, Lin Xishan and other old brothers accompanied him, and Lin Cha was also full of emotion. Today, when Chen Kai arrived, it was actually more about official business. After all, Chen Kai is the most useful and trustworthy civil servant under Zheng Chenggong, and his ability has long been recognized by the generals within the group.

In fact, this time Chen Kai came, and brought a batch of weapons newly produced by the Military Weapons Bureau. These weapons will be used to equip Lin Cha's troops to restore their combat effectiveness as soon as possible. However, Zheng Chenggong has launched a new round of military expansion, and the pressure on weapons and equipment is still very high, and they can only place their hopes on Chen Kai's abilities.

"The officials should do their best to do their best in this matter."

"I am very confident that Chen Zongjun is the military. If even CDs can't do this, I'm afraid that even if Hong Hengjiu is found, I may not be able to do it."

Hong Chengchou is just a rubbish in terms of character, but when it comes to ability, he is one of the best civil servants in this era. Unfortunately, such a person is now serving the Qing Dynasty, which is also a major disadvantage. However, Zheng Chenggong compared the famous person among Quanzhou fellows with him as soon as he opened his mouth, and Chen Kai was once again caught in the contradiction of whether this was a good or a bad word.

"Since the Guo family has already collected Waisha Village, the subordinates dare to ask, do you have a plan for the next step?"

Zheng Chenggong's recovery of Waisha Village happened a few days before Lin Cha arrived. With Waisha Village, with Nanyang Village, Guanlong Village could form the outer defense system of Chenghai County. Even in the entire Hanjiang Delta, only Outing Village could completely cover this area.

"My original intention was to attack Outingzhai to ensure the safety of Xixi's waterway. However, the army is expanding, and many new recruits from Haiyang County and Chenghai County have been recruiting these days. I am even more interested in expanding those towns from 500 to 1,000 people. Now I am rushing to attack Outingzhai, which is not very important. If the relocation is delayed, it will be unfair."

Hearing this, Chen Kai secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Perhaps because Chen Kai was responsible for seizing Chaozhou, Zheng Chenggong was not blinded by victory. Not only did he say that, he was still following his earlier advice and attacking local forces that refused to surrender in the order of easy first and then difficult.

To put it bluntly, Zheng Chenggong is now sweeping Chaozhou, which mostly has the impact of taking over the capital city, rather than being the real military strength of Zheng Chenggong's troops. Now Zheng Chenggong is eager to expand his army, just to become a real white-headed tiger before this tiger skin becomes useless, so it is difficult to rush to fight any tough battles.

"Which according to the national surname?"

"A few days ago, I talked with Zhu Yao. He was a honest and honest person. I was very relieved. However, Huang Hairu from Huanggang Castle was a little unaware of it. Chen Hou had sent people for many days and didn't even reply. It was really abominable. So let's take action against him first."

"You can also get the water diversion pass by."

When Chen Kai's tentative words were heard, Zheng Chenggong was stunned at first, then he stroked his palm and smiled, "I just wanted to know my heart!"

"I dare not, it's just reasoning."

It is indeed just a reason. Huanggang Fort is located in the southeast of Raoping County, adjacent to the Fenshui Pass, which belongs to Zhao'an County, Zhangzhou Prefecture. This is the throat of Fujian and Guangdong provinces in southern Zhangzhou and eastern Chaozhou. As long as you occupy this place, you can effectively block the Qing army in Zhangzhou. This is why Che Renzhong, the man who was determined to be the King of Chaozhou, had to occupy this place earlier.

Close the door and beat the dog!

"In addition, there is another thing that needs to be done by me."

"But please speak out."

Chen Kai bowed and Zheng Chenggong said bluntly: "I must have seen it on the way here. The expansion is still going on, but the lack of military uniforms of the soldiers in the army is very serious. Especially the troops of Lin Hou, who have been drifting on the sea for a long time, are all broken and have really lost the majesty of the King's Army."

Zheng Chenggong's words were correct, and it was indeed like a group of beggars entering the city. Originally, he really planned to make a fuss about it, but now that Zheng Chenggong has proposed it, there is naturally nothing better.

"This matter is actually simple. There are still many tailors in Chaozhou, especially in Haiyang and Chenghai counties controlled by our army."

"It turned out to be a question, and if the price could be reduced, the prefect Ye would have done it long ago."

Fortunately, due to changes in strategic direction, Zheng Chenggong has regarded Chaozhou as a local occupied area, rather than the place where people have to come here to raise food and grass to realize the southern Fujian strategy. However, in this way, many things are no longer convenient to be suppressed, especially in business matters, which always has to bargain, which is consistent with the nature of maritime merchants regarding the merchant side.

At this moment, Zheng Chenggong was a little fucked, but knew that Chen Kai would always have a solution, but he was not in a hurry, so he just waited for Chen Kai's reply here.

"Then let this matter be left to the officials. The cloth needs to be allocated by the Guo family. As for production, the Guo family only needs to divide the small workshop with the cut military uniforms in the original town government under the jurisdiction of the Military Weapons Bureau, and nothing else is needed."

"Those few tailors?"

Zheng Chenggong looked unbelievable, but Chen Kai laughed, and then showed the crazy look he said when he went to Nan'ao Island at the beginning of last year and expressed his intention to complete the army's assembly in one month.

"This time, let you appreciate the tricks of the officials!"

"Okay, okay, okay, I'm very excited about this."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the problem was no longer entangled. In the half month after Chen Kai returned to Nan'ao, Zheng Chenggong not only took down Waisha Village, but also impressed some local tyrants in Haiyang County, which was attached to Chaozhou Prefecture, forcing them to pay taxes to the Ming army and bear corvee. The occupied area gradually became wider from a line that followed the Han River.

Only by expanding the radiation surface can we obtain more resources, whether it is tax or Dingkou. Zheng Chenggong is still growing and growing. Good news came from Zheng Hongkui who entered Jieyang County, saying that Zheng Hongkui's troops easily took over the county town with the cooperation of Liu Gongxian, and are now undergoing rest and cleaning of surrounding areas.

In this way, the overall situation in Chaozhou seems to be more beneficial to Zheng Chenggong, and he is also trying his best to expand his strength. However, in this environment, he has to think about some things more.

However, without saying a word all night, Chen Kai hurried back to Nan'ao Island to start work the next morning. As for his way here, it can even be said that the possibility that had already arisen as soon as he learned that Lin Cha came to Fu, Zheng Chenggong never mentioned it at all.

"Isn't it too early?"
Chapter completed!
