    It was May, and there was still no rain.

    Even if people are superstitious, they will not think that Zhao Han lost his virtue, but that Emperor Chongzhen lost his destiny.

    ?Guangxin Mansion has already seen starving people from Zhejiang, and they entered the three counties of Yushan, Guangfeng and Qianshan along the commercial road.  They can't even wait for the harvest of summer grain, because there is no summer grain in Zhejiang, and they have already switched to various cash crops.

    Last year Zhejiang was a real natural disaster, but this year most of it was a man-made disaster. The Chongzhen government pressed taxes too quickly, and local officials simply robbed them directly.

    The prefect of Guangxin was terrified, fearing that there would be too many hungry people, which would lead to a civil uprising sooner or later.  Therefore, the gentry was called on to contribute money and food, and at the same time recruited village braves to drive these hungry people back to Zhejiang by force!

    In addition, Guangdong fried.

    ? Shen Youlong has quelled civil unrest in Guangdong last year and is continuing to suppress bandits in Guangxi.  However, last year, most of Guangdong was hit by drought, and this year, most of Guangdong was hit by drought again.

    ?The peasant uprising in Guangdong revived in April and quickly swept across several provinces.  These variables were all brought about by Zhao Han. Without him defeating the officers and soldiers several times, there would not be so many peasant uprisings in the surrounding areas, and even the uprisings would be quickly quelled by the governor.

    Ji'an Mansion.

    Zhao Han said goodbye to his wife and younger sister Yiyi, and then boarded the warship. He wanted to personally appease the Hakka people in the Southern Jiangxi area.

    In the mountainous area around Ganzhou City, Chen Maosheng's missionary work has made great progress.  Due to the economic blockade and internal divisions, more and more mountain people are willing to settle down and pay taxes, but farmers' associations are still unable to be established.

    ? These Hakka people are united in the first place, and help each other through geographical and blood ties, and the peasant association seems to have become a superfluous thing.

    However, their group and mutual assistance structure is too small, and even Hakkas from different regions will stage full martial arts because of their interests.  This spring alone, due to the drought and competition for water, there were several conflicts between locals and locals, resulting in the death of more than 20 people.

    In the biggest commotion, the two sides mobilized more than 3,000 people to fight!

    Zhao Yan enjoyed the magnificent scenery on both sides of the strait all the way, and soon came to Ganzhou City by boat.

    Fei Ruhe, Chen Maosheng, Liu Anfeng and others led the generals and officials out of the city to meet them.  Liu Huan, the former magistrate of Ganzhou in the Ming Dynasty, made meritorious service for cooperating with Chen Maosheng. In view of the complicated situation in the southern Jiangxi region, he was especially promoted to be the magistrate of Ganzhou prefecture.

    "Greetings to Zongzhen!" Everyone bowed in unison.

    Zhao Han clasped his fists in return and said: "Everyone has worked hard, so there is no need to be polite."

    Walking in front of Fei Ruhe, Zhao Han smiled and said, "You've lost weight again, and you look more energetic."

    "War all the time, can't you lose weight?" Fei Ruhe laughed.

    During this period of time, Fei Ruhe has really been fighting.  One is to suppress the bandits in the mountains, and the other is to fight against the peasant army in the counties of Southern Jiangxi.

    The conditions of these peasant armies are different.

    Some are willing to submit to Zhao Han, while others insist on self-government.  And no matter what kind, they don't cooperate with the work very much, and they have to be convinced to become honest.

    So far, the troops under Fei Ruhe's command have occupied the seven cities of Ganzhou, Shangyou, Dayu, Nankang, Xingguo, Yudu, Ningdu, and Xinfeng, completely opening up the connecting route between Jiangxi and Guangdong.  At the same time, 500 soldiers were stationed at Meiguan to contain the strategic point between the two provinces.

    However, only the three counties of Ganxian, Xingguo, and Yudu have successfully completed the work of dividing the land, and other places have to continue to work hard.

    Zhao Han patted Chen Maosheng on the shoulder again and said, "You have worked hard too."

    "It's not hard." Chen Maosheng stood upright.

    Chen Maosheng's wife, Yang Chun'e, was standing beside her at this time, with a big belly.

    Zhao Han smiled and said, "Congratulations, congratulations!"

    The couple also laughed. They planned to adopt a child, but they didn't expect Yang Chun'e to be pregnant.

    Zhao Han went to talk to Liu Anfeng and Liu Huan again, and walked into the city gate while talking.

    As a Ming official who surrendered, Liu Huan was directly appointed as the Tongzhi of Ganzhou Prefecture through sheer luck.  Surprised by Zhao Han's youth, he responded carefully all the way, and found that the lord was really unassuming, so he relaxed himself.

    Along the way, people came to watch, wanting to see what Zhao Tianwang looked like, but Zhao Han did not disappoint them.

    Temporarily living in the government office, other officials have dispersed, leaving only a few main responsible persons.

    Fei Ruhe first reported: "If Chongyi County is taken again, the whole territory of Nan'an Prefecture will be conquered. There will be no rebels there. Inside the city is the Ming government, and outside the city there will be Hakka people everywhere. The whole county is poor and surrounded by mountains.  There are only a few valleys that are considered fertile. To tell the truth, it's a burden to occupy, and it doesn't help the war."

    "No matter how poor you are, you have to win it," Zhao Han said, "When the other three counties in Nan'an Prefecture complete the division of land, the farmers' association will also?The details have to be adjusted according to the current situation.

    Hearing Zhao Han's words, Fei Ruhe was full of fighting spirit, and after a few days, he went to fight Huichang, and brought five hundred musketeers and twenty-one Franc cannons with him!

    Song Yingxing has made more than 700 firecrackers, of which 500 were allocated to Fei Ruhe, and the remaining 200 were left in the north.

    Although the southern Jiangxi region is poor and has many mountains, most of the cities are built by the river, and as long as there are navy divisions, they can quickly move troops to attack.

    Following the Gongshui River and going straight to Huichang County, it is another terrain where the three rivers confluence.

    After Fei Ruhe besieged the county seat, he waited to besiege the city and send reinforcements. It was almost impossible to attack by force, and even if he captured it, he would definitely suffer heavy losses.

    These Southern Jiangxi peasant troops have become stupid and will not sneak into the mountains at will.  Because the leaders of the field soldiers have now become big landlords, they are reluctant to part with their property.

    Still in the same old way, Fei Ruhe led troops to besiege the city, and the mission team and the backbone of the peasant association immediately developed the peasant association outside the city and organized the distribution of land.

    One trick is fresh, eat all over the world.

    (At the end of the chapter, there is Chongzhen¡¯s ten-year development plan. The picture shows the actual control sites within this year. Some only occupy the city, and some only occupy the countryside. Refresh if you can¡¯t see it.)
