In the southeast, Tang and Lu stood side by side, so that there were two days in the sky, and the country had two masters, but Longwu ascended the throne in front, and King Lu supervised the country in the back, according to the law, King Lu should abdicate and return to the domain, so that the Southern Ming Dynasty was at least nominally unified, but the bloodline of Emperor Longwu was too estranged, and Zhu Yihai was in a yellow robe, and he was reluctant to retreat, not to mention the ministers who supported him, and he was unwilling to give up the work of "setting a policy", worried that he would not be reused after entering the Longwu Dynasty, so that Tang and Lu gradually opposed each other.

Since ancient times, China has never allowed the situation of two masters in the state, and in the regime of King Lu of Eastern Zhejiang, the ministers were immediately divided into two factions.

Zhu Dadian, a scholar, Qian Sule, a general, and others are a faction, and they all think, "At present, if the enemy is the first to fight with the same surname, how can it become the cause of Zhongxing?" And the holy son and god grandson, always for the ancestral territory, now Longwu is both orthodox, difficult to change, if I am in charge of the country, I can still surrender my heart to obey. ”

They believe that in the current form, Emperor Longwu has ascended the throne, and it is naturally impossible to abdicate, and the Longwu court has been recognized by the vast majority of Southern Ming forces in the south, and it is extremely unwise for the Lu Jian State to resist it only with a corner of eastern Zhejiang, so they are in favor of the union of Fujian and Zhejiang, accept the orthodox status of the Longwu court, and persuade the king of Lu to accept the title of the emperor's nephew and go to the position of the prison country, so as not to be unique and isolated in eastern Zhejiang.

However, the other faction of the uncle Zhang Guojun and the general Wang Zhiren resolutely opposed it, and they all believed, "The Lord has no intention of benefiting the world, and the Tang Dynasty has no reason to sit on the throne." ”

They advocated that "the one who first recovers Jinling will be the king", and some people even said that "hundreds of thousands of people in the river, why is it difficult to return to each other", and they did not hesitate to use force to fight for the throne.

The dispute between Tang and Lu set Fujian and Zhejiang against each other, but the consequences caused by this also caused a split within the Lu Wang regime, which was not strong in the first place.

The Tang and Lu regimes both aimed to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, but at this time, because of the competition for the orthodox position, they seriously weakened the strength of the Qing army.

In mid-September, Zhu Yihai, the king of Lu, saw that the courtiers were divided, and many of them advocated respecting Emperor Longwu, so he was very unhappy and announced his retirement from the vassal throne and returned to Taizhou.

At the end of September, the ministers who advocated the recognition of the Longwu court as orthodox began to read the edict, but under the opposition of his uncle Zhang Guojun and the supervisor Xiong Rulin, he finally refused to accept the edict of the Longwu regime and welcomed Zhu Yihai back.

Soon after, in the Tang-Lu dispute, after Lu Qingyuan, the capital of the Longwu Dynasty, was killed by the generals of the Lu Dynasty, Emperor Longwu also killed Chen Qian, the envoy of the Lu Jianguo, which completely deteriorated the relationship between Fujian and eastern Zhejiang.

The contention between Tang and Lu made the two important regimes of the Southern Ming Dynasty go to opposition, and the dispute between Tang and Lu has intensified since then.

King Lu and the ministers loyal to him are very clear that only by virtue of the land of eastern Zhejiang, can not compete with Longwu, in order to determine the name as soon as possible, with the resolution of the army of eastern Zhejiang, first conquer Hangzhou, then restore Jinling, first worship Xiaoling, establish far more than the prestige of the Longwu court, with the merits of recovering the southern capital, to ascend the throne and claim the emperor.

In early October, outside the city of Lu Jianguo and Shaoxing, he ascended the altar to worship the sky, and Jin Feng Fang Guoan was the Duke of Yueguo, Wang Zhiren was the Duke of Xingguo, and worshiped Fang Guoan as the general to control the army.

Soon after, Zhu Yihai of Lu Jianguo personally went to the Qiantang River to reward the army, and rewarded two coins of silver for each Ming soldier, "Limit crossing the river and entering Hangzhou." ”

In mid-October, Fang Guoan, Ma Shiying, and Wang Zhiren gathered all the soldiers and horses in eastern Zhejiang, and gathered 100,000 people, crossing the river from Zhuqiao, Fancun, and Liuheta from Wugu, and approaching Zhangjiashan, Wuyun Mountain, Bapanling and other places, approaching Hangzhou.

The army of Chen Zilong and Wu Yi on Taihu Lake, after the failure to rescue Jiangyin, retreated to Taihu Lake, learned that King Lu raised troops to restore Hangzhou, followed the revolt division, approached Huzhou, and prepared to go straight into Si'an Town and cut off the road for the Qing army in Nanjing to rescue Hangzhou.

In the land south of the Yangtze River, after the Zhulu Yishi was pacified by the Qing army, it was surging again.

Zhang Cunren, the governor of the Qing court in Hangzhou, hurriedly asked Mele Zhangjing Zhu Mala, Ji Xiha, Hetuo, the chief soldier Tian Xiong, Zhang Jie and others to raise 60,000 troops, divide the troops into three routes, meet the army of King Lu, and quickly report to the Duoduo of Nanjing, transfer Boluo outside Xianxia Pass, and bring troops to help.

On October 18, Chen Zilong used the strategy of his disciple Xia Wanchun to order Wu Yishan to deceive the city of Huzhou, and the army rushed into Huzhou in one fell swoop, killing the prefect of the Qing court, garrisoning 8,000 troops, and responding to the army of King Lu.

Chen Zilong saw the army of King Lu and fought with the Qing soldiers on the north bank of Qiantang, afraid that Kong Youde would support Hangzhou, and the righteous army held on Huzhou with the order, and sent his disciple Xia Wanchun to Hangzhou to contact the army of King Lu to discuss the matter of coordinated combat.

When Xia Wanchun came to Hangzhou, King Lu's army had been fighting with the Qing army for six days, but they had lost more than won much.

The army of King Lu, who was originally preparing to encircle Hangzhou with a three-way army, was blocked by the Qing army near Zhangjiashan, Wuyun Mountain, and Bapanling, which were far away from the city, before they approached Hangzhou City.

Xia Wanchun first came to the Fang Guoan camp located in Bapanling, only to see the Fang army camped against the ridge, and not far from the mountain was the camp of the Qing general Melle Zhangjing and Tuohe general Tian Xiong.

Fang Guoan met with Xia Wanchun, and Wanchun asked: "King Lu wants to take Hangzhou, why does the general defend the mountain?" ”

"The Qing army is very fine, and after attacking for six days, it cannot be broken, but it is defeated, so it takes advantage of the situation to defend." Fang Guoan sighed.

Xia Wanchun said: "If you can't go to Hangzhou, why don't you retreat early and accumulate troops, he is coming, and the general is stationed here, I am afraid that I will lose my ground!" ”

King Lu's regime was trapped in a corner of eastern Zhejiang, in order to win over supporters, he did not hesitate to buy people's hearts with high-ranking officials, and then the officials were indiscriminately sealed.

Some idle people in the rivers and lakes also took the opportunity to rise up, with one or two hundred old and weak, claiming to support thousands of righteous teachers, and asking for rewards from the Lu king's regime, so that although the army of the king of Lu claimed to be 100,000 people, the fact was that most of them were full of nonsense.

At that time, the Ministry of Rites of King Lu wrote to Wu Zhongluan Shangshu, please strictly check, "those who recruit troops and rebels should ask their names in the register, and those who originally served as officials should distinguish their edicts and answer", but the situation at that time could not be checked at all, so it was not implemented in the end.

Xia Wanchun was suspicious at the beginning of hearing that King Lu raised troops to recover Hangzhou, and felt that it was really impossible to recover Hangzhou with the strength of Lu Jianguo, so after Chen Zilong captured Huzhou, he persuaded him not to easily enter Si'an Town, fearing that King Lu would be defeated and the righteous army would follow in Zhejiang, so he let the army stop in Huzhou, which was very close to Taihu Lake, and respond at any time.

Now that he came to Hangzhou Mansion, he saw that the officers and troops who were supposed to recover Hangzhou were completely on the defensive, so he knew that there was no hope of recovery, so he persuaded Fang Guoan to withdraw his troops as soon as possible.
