On the evening of June 26 in the second year of Jiajing, he was ordered to send Xu Jin to take a risk, and only led 80 people to defeat 800 thieves and recover Chongde County, creating a miracle and becoming a classic example of winning more with less in the history of Ming Dynasty warfare.

However, although Chongde County was saved, on the evening of this day, the target of the thieves' attack was far more than just Chongde County. On the same day, Xu Hai personally led 1,400 thieves to attack Haiyan County, which is next door to Chongde County, but fortunately failed to break the city, so he could only attack Pinghu County in the north of Haiyan County, and occupied Zhapu Qianhusuo, and the soldiers pointed directly at Pinghu County, and Pinghu County ordered to Jiaxing Fucheng to urgently ask for help.

In addition, the Japanese Hosokawa Takeshu led a thousand Japanese to attack Nanhui County, Songjiang Prefecture, Nanhui Thousand Households were wiped out, and Qingcun Thousand Households went to the rescue, but were ambushed by the Japanese Invaders on the way, defeated, and Thousand Households and a deputy Thousand Households were killed on the spot.

Looking further to the north, the Japanese girl Ori Shinmiko led more than 1,000 Japanese robbers to attack Chongmingsha and occupy the Chongmingsha Thousand Households, and the Chongming Sha Thousand Households were wiped out, and none of them were spared, and all the ships, weapons and materials in the place fell into the hands of the Japanese Invaders. Orishin Miko greatly increased her strength, established a new stronghold in Chongmingsha, and aimed her troops directly at the rich and prosperous Suzhou Prefecture, frightening the local gentry to hide in the city.

On the side of Ningbo Mansion in Zhejiang, Wang Zhi, the most powerful pirate, also launched on the same day, and the troops attacked the coastal area of Ningbo Mansion in many ways, burning and looting everywhere, and Xia Yan hurriedly deployed troops to resist, but Deputy Xia Yan strictly forbade the sea in Ningbo Mansion, offended a huge interest group, and most of the local officials and gentry disobeyed the yin, and some guards even directly refused his orders.

The decree is not accessible, and even if Xia Yan has three heads and six arms, it is useless, so Wang Zhibu burned, killed and looted in Ningbo Prefecture, and it was like entering a no-man's land, and even a large number of homeless people who had no plans to live joined in.

Wang Zhi's power grew rapidly, and in just a few days, nearly 10,000 people were gathered under his command, and 50,000 troops were declared to the outside world. Xia Yan, the deputy envoy of the Qin Mission, was so anxious that he lost control of the situation in the capital at the beginning, so he could only send a letter to Xu Jin asking for help, while sending an urgent flight of 800 miles to the capital.

Not only that, but the Westerners also took the opportunity to invade the coastal areas of Guangdong and Fujian and occupy the islands off the coast of the two provinces. In addition, pirates of all sizes also joined the ranks of fishing in troubled waters, and raided and looted the villages and towns along the coast of the Ming Dynasty, resulting in the destruction of human lives.

All of a sudden, from north to south, from Shandong to Guangdong, stretching thousands of miles of Daming sea and frontier are burning with war, 800 miles of urgent reports like snowflakes flew to the capital, the whole Ming Dynasty was shocked by it, as if the building was about to fall, and the people were panicked.

Although the little emperor Zhu Houxi has been sitting on the throne for more than two years, he is only a sixteen-year-old boy after all, and he was suddenly frightened to the point that he had no master, and hurriedly convened the ministers of the court and the central government to discuss countermeasures.

At this critical moment concerning the security of the country, he did not take the opportunity to suppress Zhang Xuan and these upstart factions, but actively offered advice to Zhu Houxi, and first proposed that Xu Jin be appointed as the governor of Zhizhejiang and be fully responsible for the coastal war.

However, there was also another voice in the DPRK and China, believing that Wang Shouren, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, should be the governor of Zhizhejiang and have full command of the war. Although Xu Jin has the reputation of always winning, but after all, Jiang is still old and spicy, Wang Shouren used strange soldiers to exterminate the bandits in southern Gan who had been harming for decades in one fell swoop, and suppressed the rebellion of King Ning a few years ago, with brilliant achievements and no defeat.

The little emperor Zhu Houxi is naturally inclined to use Xu Jin in his heart, and has great confidence and absolute trust in Xu Jin, but now the situation is dangerous, stretching thousands of miles of front, if Xu Jin can't control it, it will inevitably drag the war into the quagmire, shaking the national capital of the Ming Dynasty.

Just when the two opinions of the court and the central government were at odds, and the little emperor Zhu Houxi was uncertain, Wang Shouren was able to pinch the general, and urgently submitted a letter with 800 li, recommending Xu Jin as the governor of Zhizhejiang and taking charge of all the military horses in several coastal provinces.

So there is nothing to fight about, two candidates, and one of the candidates strongly recommends the other, and there are several reasons for this.

As a result, Lao Wang's letter was finalized, and Zhu Houxi readily agreed that Xu Jin would be the governor of Zhizhejiang and be fully responsible for the coastal war, and Yang Tinghe also readily drafted the holy decree.

With the flag of the Ministry of War, Xu Jin had the right to mobilize all the troops in the theater, including all materials related to the army.

Although the treasury is not rich, he still tightened his belt and squeezed out 500,000 silver as military reserves, and the batch of goods worth more than 700,000 li that Xu Jin seized before did not need to be returned to the treasury, and directly used as military funds.

It is worth mentioning here that in Wang Shouren's recital, in addition to recommending Xu Jin as the governor of Zhejiang, he also proposed that the War Bureau send craftsmen to the Nanjing Ordnance Bureau to cast the third and fourth batches of flintlock pistols nearby to support the front-line officers and soldiers. The little emperor Zhu Houxi immediately agreed, and the cabinet also approved the proposal, but the cost of making guns had to be solved by the Nanjing side itself, and the treasury really couldn't squeeze out the silver.

At this moment, the national crisis is at the head, but fortunately, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty can unite as one, do not add to the blockage, and all departments have money to pay, and some people have to help. I have to say that in the early years of Jiajing, during the period when Yang Tinghe was in power, the atmosphere of the entire imperial court was quite good, but it was only after the Great Rites Discussion that a party struggle was formed.

On the fifth day of the seventh month of the second year of Jiajing, the emperor's holy decree and the banner of the military department were finally delivered, and Xu Jin was ordered to be in danger again, serving as the governor of Zhejiang, holding the military and political power of several coastal provinces in the Ming Dynasty.

On the tenth day of the seventh month of the second year of Jiajing, Xu Jin left Chongde County under the escort of 500 battalions, set up the marshal tent in the capital city of Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, and officially promoted the altar to transfer troops. Exactly: the wind and rain in Kyushu, the waves of the world into the east. But the rest of the characters are difficult to find, and they are thunderous and thieves.

Moreover, half a month has passed since the thieves launched on June 26, and the situation has become even more dangerous.

Wang Zhi, the owner of the Wufeng ship, has occupied two small coastal counties in Ningbo Prefecture, and even burned the war to Fujian, claiming to be an army of 50,000 to the outside world.

After Xu Hai occupied Zhapu Qianhu, he continued to recruit homeless people to join, and his power also grew rapidly, but Hai Ningwei was not angry, and ran to encircle and suppress Xu Hai, but he was defeated, and sent people and equipment to Xu Hai in vain.

Xu Hai, who defeated Hainingwei, greatly increased his strength, and broke through Pinghu County in one go, and the soldiers turned around, and went south to capture Haiyan County, and the soldiers pointed directly at Chongde County, and at this time Xu Jin had received a holy decree, left Chongde County, and moved the Shuai Tent to Hangzhou City.

Xu Hai connected two counties, killed two county commanders, the momentum was like the sky, the manpower under his command skyrocketed to 20,000 people, and the external claim was 60,000, 10,000 more than Wang Zhi, and called himself "General Tiancha Pinghai", claiming to fight to Hangzhou, cutting off the head of Xu Jin as a night pot, and the arrogance was very arrogant.

Compared with Wang Zhi and Xu Hai's siege and plunder, Ori Shin Miko and Hosokawa Takeshu are much more real, they are Japanese people, and they have no intention of occupying the land in the Ming Dynasty, so they pay attention to looting, after occupying a stronghold, they will send a team to travel between the major cities every day, looting property, and at the same time continuously transporting the looted resources back to Japan.

The Hosokawa family and the Orishin family, who tasted the sweetness, immediately sent more ships and men to support Hosokawa Takeshu and Orinobu Miko, and those warlords in Japan were also red-eyed, and they organized fleets one after another to rush to the coast of Daming, and a greater crisis was about to erupt.

On the southernmost coast of Guangdong, Westerners also used the excuse of occupying the islands of Hong Kong and Macao, and built forts and fortifications on the islands, making a posture that Lao Tzu would not leave when he came. ()
