In Peng Rong's opinion, Gao Jin is indeed extraordinary and very clear-headed, which is extremely difficult for him who came from the Rebel Army. And more importantly, Peng Rong felt that if Zhao Hongcan had to find one of the three parties to cooperate, Gao Jin would be the most suitable candidate. This was also the reason why Peng Rong went to visit him in person and expressed his sincerity.

"So, according to Mr., is it still a tendency to join forces with Gao Jin?" Zhao Hongcan stroked Xu Chen's reminiscence.

"That's right." Peng Rong explained: "Tian Rentong is not worth mentioning. To put it bluntly, he is just a local tyrant. He is not much different from those chieftains, and he only has their interests in the local area. If you make a good judgment below, no matter who takes Guizhou, Tian Rentong and those chieftains will support him. His fence-bearing falls with the wind and will not be a big deal."

"Sir, this is reasonable." Zhao Hongcan nodded slightly. He also had a similar judgment on this point, so in his mind, Tian Rentong could not play much role no matter how deeply rooted it is in the local area. As long as he has overwhelming strength, these people will surrender to the strong.

After all, for thousands of years, Guizhou chieftains and head men have done this, and they have long been accustomed to this approach. Now, Bei Henuo has used a light and so-called official position to win over Tian Rentong and others. From this point, the essence of these people can be seen.

"As for the imperial court in Yunnan and Guizhou, I won't say much. I think the Grand Marshal is very clear in his heart." Peng Rong continued: "The key is that he thinks it is in Gao Jin's place. Although Gao Jin is good at fighting and has a unique vision, it's a pity that he was born in Bailian. Otherwise, he might have achieved a foundation. But that's true. He is not tolerated by the Ming Dynasty now, and the four places in China can accommodate them. This is also the main reason why Gao Jin's troops entered Guizhou, intending to open up the road to the south and wanted to establish a country overseas."

Zhao Hongcan nodded in agreement. He already knew about this, which also means that there is no big conflict of interest between Gao Jin and Zhao Hongcan, and the goals of both sides are roughly the same, so there is a certain foundation for cooperation.

Peng Rong said again: "Gao Jin is a tenacious person, and more importantly, he is extremely righteous. This is certainly his advantage, but it is also his weakness. In my opinion, it is better to help him in time instead of watching the changes at the moment to show the sincerity of the general. As long as the general does this, it is certain that Gao Jin will take the initiative to join forces with the general to attack Guizhou."

Hearing this, Zhao Hongcan hesitated a little. Although Peng Rong's words made sense, he was also a little worried.

There are three concerns. The first point is whether Gao Jin will really join forces with him as Peng Rong said? After all, Peng Rong has contacted Gao Jin, but he has not received Gao Jin's clear answer.

Second, once the war begins, it means that Zhao Hongcan has completely broken his face with the Qing court. He has always been wearing a skin of a Qing court official and is using this skin to act. So from the surface, he and Yunnan and Guizhou provinces are still a family.

But it is different from Gao Jin's alliance. It means that Zhao Hongcan and the Qing court completely broke up. By then, even Emperor Jianxing still wanted to win him over. In addition, Emperor Jianxing's previous change in attitude towards Han ministers would definitely be furious, and in the future he could no longer regard himself as a Qing minister.

And the last point is the Ming Dynasty. Although the Ming Dynasty did not attack Yun, Gui and Gui, they were each vigilant of each other within the scope of the division of forces between the two sides. In order to protect themselves, Zhao Hongcan often sent some people to the Ming Dynasty to show his appearance of being in Cao's camp and being in Han, in order to paralyze the Ming Dynasty.

Although he didn't know that it was his actions that made Daming think that he had plans to surrender, or that Daming had not been ready to attack him, or that Daming was making other plans, he knew that Ping An was only temporary. If his power was seriously damaged or his troops were too dispersed, Daming, who had been eyeing him, would never miss the opportunity.

When Zhao Hongcan frowned and expressed his concerns, Peng Rong immediately laughed.

"Master General, you went from Guangzhou to Guilin. Did you plan to be a loyal minister of the Qing court at that time?"

"Sir, do you mean..." Zhao Hongcan raised his eyebrows and looked at Peng Rong.

Peng Rong stood up, saluted Zhao Hongcan first, and then said, "I admire the decisiveness of the great commander back then. If the great commander didn't do that, I'm afraid the consequences would be better than anyone else. In fact, the reason why the Qing court has always accused the great commander of this over the years is not that he thinks that the great commander is still a Qing minister. In fact, whether it is the Qing court or in the heart of the great commander, I'm afraid everyone knows what happened?"

Then, Peng Rong continued: "This is not only a stopgap of the Grand Marshal, but also a stopgap of the Qing court, but they are just tacitly informed. But since the Grand Marshal is a stopgap of the Grand Marshal, there will be a day when the time comes. Could it be that the Grand Marshal still intends to continue like this until today?"

"Sir, do you mean..." At this time, Zhao Hongcan seemed to understand Peng Rong's words a little, and couldn't help but lean forward, staring at Peng Rong.

Peng Rong said seriously: "The Qin lost his deer back then, and the whole world chased him. The Qing Dynasty was originally a foreign race to enter the Central Plains. The sage said that the Hu people had no fortune for a hundred years, and now they have confirmed this. The Grand Marshal was the descendant of the Han people, and he had to serve the Qing Dynasty. However, the Qing Dynasty was so suspicious of our Han ministers. I think the Grand Marshal knows better than anyone else."

"Although the revival of the Ming Dynasty is not the best strategy to re-submit the Ming Dynasty with the virtue of the great general, it is not a long-term plan to continue to be the Qing ministers. Moreover, over the years, the generals and the generals have followed the great generals to this day. Could it be that the great generals have not been concerned about them? At this moment, why not take the Qing Dynasty clothes and clothes, and raise our Han people to expel the Qing Dynasty with great righteousness? At that time, I think that under the hopes of the generals, the generals will definitely respond to each other. As for Gao Jin, they will naturally treat each other with friendly forces."

"Sir, I mean, let me call myself the king now?" Zhao Hongcan's heart was beating in his mouth, his mouth was dry, and he swallowed his saliva and asked.

Seeing Peng Rong nodding, although Zhao Hongcan was very moved, he was worried. After all, it was different from a few years ago. If he had been independent at that time, it might be fine, but now the Ming Dynasty has occupied eight or nine of the world. Is it appropriate for him to become king again?

"How is it not appropriate?" Peng Rong said: "The general came from the Zhao family and should be called King Song! Then he expressed his support to the Ming Dynasty as a rebel army. According to the following, the Ming Dynasty would naturally not treat the general... No! My king sent troops and might even provide help to our army. Moreover, after my king became king, all generals and adults can also be promoted to encourage morale. Isn't it a good thing?"

Zhao Hongcan thought carefully and felt that what Peng Rong said was not unreasonable. If he just became king and broke with the Qing Dynasty, this move would not be impossible. Moreover, he could win over Gao Jin in this way. If the two armies united and their strength increased greatly, the goal of being in the southwest of the country would be very likely to be achieved. Even if this could not be achieved, it would be a way out to switch to the Ming Dynasty.

When Zhao Hongcan thought of this, his heart was filled with passion. King Song? Peng Rong's flattery was good. His surname was Zhao. Of course, it can be said that he was a descendant of Zhao Song back then, so there was no problem calling himself King Song.
