Chapter 321 Yingtian

"Duke, has this news been confirmed?"

Ruan Dacheng frowned: "Is the traitor's army really so arrogant?"

Xu Hongji coughed and said, "Ma Shiying, Liu Zeqing, Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zhaoji, Mou Wenshou and others are all lessons from the past. Do Lord Ruan still understand it at this time?"

The people Xu Hongji mentioned were all civil and military officials of the Ming court who died in the Battle of Fengyang in Zhongdu. Ma Shiying was the governor of Fengyang, and Liu Zeqing and others were all generals of the town. And their enemies were only more than 10,000 people. With their upright soldiers, they were crushed like a bamboo shoot. Several generals, and nearly 100,000 troops from all prefectures on the canal line were almost destroyed.

Even Shi Kefa was almost captured and killed.

Sure enough, when Xu Hongji mentioned this, Shi Kefa's face suddenly turned blue and red. The big defeat was a shame to Shi Kefa.

"But..." Zhang Shenyan wandered for a moment and said, "The thief can defeat Ma Shiying and others, but Jiannu is not Liu Zeqing or the like."

This is interesting.

Everyone here understands that the army of the Ming Dynasty was all made of paper. All the wars with the Donglu ended in defeat. The so-called great victory was just a fig leaf. For example, Yuan Chonghuan's great victory was said to have killed Nurhaci with cannons, but he did not catch the body. Who knows? Killing a hundred people can be called a great victory, but compared with the losses of his own side, this record is completely negligible.

Earlier, Ying Yi was in the capital, Chongzhen abdicated and destroyed the Ming Dynasty. He heard that Ying Yi was going to fight the Eastern Lu, and the old ministers of Yingtian were still celebrating each other. He thought it was a dog biting a dog, and the rebels were powerful, and the Eastern Lu were not bad. It just happened to be a defeat, so they could jump out with the flow.

But no one expected the ending.

The traitors are powerful, but in their minds, they are probably even worse than the Donglu who have been rampant for many years.

However, Donglu was also made of paper.

How can you jump out now?!

"After this matter, what else can I say?" Gao Hongtu said: "Duke of Wei, my colleagues, the traitor forced the emperor to abdicate. He was so ruthless that God would not tolerate him. I, Xingyi Master, are afraid that he will come!"

"The scholar's words." Ruan Dacheng sneered: "Wouldn't it be even better if you have the ability to let God kill Ying Yi with lightning?"

Gao Hongtu suddenly blushed and was about to reorganize, but Ruan Dacheng said: "The rebels are fierce. Now they have defeated the Tartars and have no external troubles. They are bound to the north of the river and their momentum is accomplished! However, the plan now is not to discuss how to send troops to conquer him, but to prevent him from sending troops across the river to attack!"

Ruan Dacheng is a man with a deep mind and good at power and tricks, but he is not without talent. As soon as he said this, many people couldn't help but nod to agree.

The enemy's power has been established, and I am weak, and the initiative is in the hands of the enemy, not in their hands. Taking the initiative to attack is a delusion, and the battle of Fengyang is the car ahead. The best way now is to build a defense line with the natural danger of the river, resist the enemy's attack, and then slowly plan it.

"What Lord Ruan said is very true."

Xu Hongji sighed, "I know this is the case now. However, the river is naturally dangerous and still needs to be guarded by the navy. You all know the situation of the Yingtian navy, and it is unusable."

"Zheng Zhilong, the governor of the Fujian Navy, can be used!" Shi Kefa suddenly spoke.

Xu Hongji pondered and said, "Zheng Zhilong is indeed useful. However, this person is probably not easy to get along with. When Xiong Tingbi was there, he had a good relationship with Zheng Zhilong, so that the court could only try to recruit this person. However, this person has always been obedient to the tune and not the Xuan, so how could he lead his army to fight against the rebels?!"

Ruan Dacheng's expression moved and said, "At this point, it's hard to turn around, so it's better to burn the boat. Zheng Zhilong is also an ambitious person. He was once a pirate. He has no morals and only interests can move his heart. You might as well appoint him as the governor of Fujian and govern all military and political affairs in Fujian."

"No!" Shi Kefa refuted: "Mr. Ruan's move is to raise a tiger as a disaster. Giving Fujian to Zheng Zhilong is one that is incompatible with national laws, and two that how could Lord. Ruan predict that Zheng Zhilong would not become the second thief!"

"Damn it!"

Ruan Dacheng said: "At this point, what else do you have to do? Could it be that you have to lead troops to Fengyang to fight against the thieves?!"

Shi Kefa was so angry that he was so arrogant that he was so arrogant.

Ruan Dacheng said again: "I can't predict whether Zheng Zhilong will be the second thief, but he is not now. Ying Yi's thief has a strong thief and is the main enemy. You can't just not use Zheng Zhilong, otherwise who will resist the Xia thief?! Will you give up on your food because of choking?!"

He said to Xu Hongji: "Once the past overlords can only destroy the tyrannical Qin Dynasty. Today, I will give up Fujian and win a chance to breathe, that's right!"

Xu Hongji thought, nodded slowly: "Okay."

All the old ministers agreed halfway, and the matter was decided.

Psychological people like Shi Kefa can only accept it helplessly.

Xu Hongji said, "I'll send someone to Fujian later." He then said, "The rebels defeated the Tartars and the general situation has been completed. If you and I want to resist it, King Fu must have a place to make the right statement. I want to persuade King Fu to ascend the throne and become emperor, inherit the great throne of Hongwu, govern the prefectures in Jiangnan, gather one mind to resist the rebel thief together."

Now, we must have an understanding of King Fu's affairs. If we continue to argue, it will be too late to wait until the call comes to the north.

All the old ministers knew it well, and after hearing this, they all reluctantly agreed with it.

So he agreed to choose a date to invite King Fu Zhu Yousong to sacrifice to Xiaoling, and then ascend to the throne and inherit the Hongwu Grand Priesthood.

This time, we agreed to talk about money, food and materials. Yingtian's old ministers all had great families and had great business, but the small court that was about to be established was poor.

I had to work hard and put money on the shelf as soon as possible.

This time seemed to be quite fruitful, but when the old ministers dispersed and turned their backs to others, they all looked very heavy.

Can Zheng Zhilong be used? Can he stop Ying Yi?!

Is King Fu a wise ruler? Is he wise?!

Can everyone work together? Can the strength be condensed?

All are questions.

When Chongzhen announced the destruction of the Ming Dynasty, he pushed Zhu Yousong to the throne, which was actually untenable in terms of legal principles. He just borrowed the last trace of the Ming court.

Is there hope for such a long time?

Reflecting history, the current situation is basically clear at a glance. Ying Yi is probably going to fulfill his bold words from all the great masters of Xia.

More than a thousand years ago, on the eve of the battle between Cao Mengde and Yuan Shao, most of his civil and military officials had private messages from Yuan Shao. And at this time, isn’t it a cycle of reincarnation?!

He tempted Zheng Zhilong and pushed Zhu Yousong to the top, and paid money and grain. All of this could not cover up the decline. After this day, countless people made many small moves in secret.

——There were many more ferries on the ferry in the south of the Yangtze River and north of the Yangtze River for a time.

——The Zheng family of Jinhua gentry was crowded with Yemen.
