A Brief Record of Zheng Jing's Restoration of the Ming Dynasty in Haijiang Longding

In the early years of Kangxi's reign in the Qing Dynasty, Zheng Chenggong died of illness in Taiwan. The island was in political turmoil and food was scarce. The Qing army was eyeing the island. King Zheng Jing of Yanping was ordered to take over the task at the critical moment. Under the banner of "Fuming Tuohai", he shouldered the responsibility for the survival of the Han people. He first reorganized Taiwan's foundation: he married the indigenous Dadu tribe to cultivate tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, promoted the sugar trade to fill the treasury, supervised the construction of a 20-foot-long main bird ship to strengthen the navy, and even sent agents to sneak into Manila to find out the weak points of the defense of the more than a thousand Spanish garrison. Since then, Zheng Jing has embarked on a magnificent maritime hegemony: 15,000 naval troops launched a surprise attack on the Philippines during the typhoon season, bombarded the city of Manila with three artillery pieces, forced the Western Army to surrender with the "no killing of civilians" strategy, recruited 50,000 Chinese to form the Self-Defense Force, and built Luzon into a "Taiwan-Philippines" dual core base; Division of Satsuma, Japan, massacred the villages to establish a prestige to intimidate the vassal soldiers, used the "siege three and one missing" plan to break the city in 10 days, and used Satsuma's shipbuilding skills to increase the speed of warships; when heading south to Southeast Asia, they teamed up with the Kingdom of Mataram to encircle and annihilate the Dutch defenders, monopolize the Strait of Malacca and the spice trade, and open granaries in the Mekong Delta to gather capital for counterattack. When the Qing Dynasty launched an all-out encirclement and suppression campaign, Zheng Jing used the Indochina Peninsula as a springboard to form an army of 50,000 servants to raid the southwest and contain the 30,000 main force of the Qing army. He secretly contacted the Tiandihui as an internal response and trained 30,000 "Northern Adaptation Forces" to prepare for war. In the end, he personally led 150 warships and an 80,000-strong army to counterattack in two groups: the southwest army took Guangxi and Yunnan to cut off the Qing army's retreat; the southeast army landed in Fujian to strangle the Qing government's financial resources; the two groups joined forces in Nanjing and then went north along the Yangtze River to defeat Beijing and pursue Kangxi. They worshiped at the Temple of Heaven and announced the recovery of the Central Plains. Between the sea and the land, they rebuilt the foundation of the Ming Dynasty for the Han people.
