After hearing Fang Guoan's answer, Wu Zheng felt aroused his heart. Gushan Beizi Boluo was under Duoduo before, and he had private messages with Fang Guoan.

Although it is impossible to confirm whether Fang Guoan really treasoned and surrendered to the enemy, the secret communication is certain.

Wu Zheng did not oppose this counterattack. No matter from any aspect, this counterattack has something to do.

Even if it fails in the end, it is an opportunity to show the strength and determination of the Ming army.

But if this was a conspiracy between Fang Guoan and the Qing army, the problem would be serious, and the Ming army might have lost all its troops.

Should I take this risk?

Wu Zheng suddenly understood why Zhang Guowei and others were expressionless. They were probably like themselves, and they were worried about this.

Seeing that Wu Zheng stopped asking, Fang Guoan turned to Zhu Yihai: "The Duke of Xingguo led a navy across Hangzhou Bay and blocked the Qing army from Jiangning Prefecture in Jiaxing Prefecture. I led a large army under my command to cross the river from Fuyang to attack. Your Highness can order Wu Zheng to lead his troops from Xiaoshan to cross the river, advance to Yanguan, restrain the forces of the Qing army in Hangzhou Prefecture, and form a joint attack with my subordinates. This will have at least 60% to 70% of the land."

Wu Zheng was a little confused.

If Fang Guoan really conspired with the Qing army and wanted to capture all the forces of Shaoxing Prefecture in one place, then what is the significance of sending troops in three groups like this?

Such a strategy of sending troops is in line with the rules and it is impossible to form a siege against the Ming army.

In other words, Fang Guoan’s current deployment suggestions are obviously really doing his best to this war.

Wu Zheng couldn't help but hesitate.

Zhu Yihai heard this and applauded the high-fives. He smiled and said to Wu Zheng: "Wu Zheng, do you still have any objections?"

Wu Zheng knew that if he gave up at this time, he would face negative and lazy wars, unintentional and other criticisms.

Moreover, Wu Zheng really wanted to fight this game in his heart. If Fang Guoan was really a loyal minister, it would be a pity to lose this opportunity.

If this opportunity is lost, once Duoduo leads his army to Hangzhou Prefecture, Shaoxing Prefecture can only passively welcome the Qing army's attack next year.

In view of this, Wu Zheng gritted his teeth and said, "I have no objection."

This sound attracted the slanting eyes of Zhang Guowei and others, and Wu Zheng found that their eyes were filled with deep concern.

Zhu Yihai shouted loudly, "That's the decision. Wu Zheng, you can go back to Lianghu to prepare for the war. Your dear friends will perform their duties. In the early morning of the next day, three armies will set off to attack Hangzhou."

"I will obey the order."

....

Wu Zheng really didn't expect that Zhu Yihai, who has always been indecisive, would start the war so decisively this time.

After exiting the gate of the palace, Wu Zheng did not leave.

When Fang Guoan came out, Wu Zheng greeted him and said, "Duke of Yue, can you talk with me after taking a step?"

Fang Guoan seemed in a good mood. Although he was surprised that Wu Zheng took the initiative to come to him, he still responded with a smile: "Okay."

The two walked aside and Fang Guoan asked, "What's wrong with Wu Qianhu?"

Wu Zheng said: "Hangzhou Prefecture has more than 30,000 troops, which is on par with the Duke of Yue. However, the Qing army was defending and occupied the advantage of the terrain. In addition, the reinforcements needed to deal with Duoduo, the Duke of Yue could only choose to lead the army to attack. Isn't the Duke of Yue worried about the huge casualties of the troops under his command?"

Wu Zheng's words made Fang Guoan's face darker.

Fang Guoan is not a fool, but he is very sensitive.

Wu Zheng's words sounded very comfortable, as if he was concerned about him and his Ming army, but Fang Guoan heard something else.

First of all, Wu Zheng pointed out the disadvantage of Fang Guoan in this battle, that is, Fang Guoan's troops are the biggest pressure party in this battle.

Most of Wang Zhiren's troops were naval forces, and the landing was not good. He had only 8,000 infantrymen under his command, which only blocked the enemy reinforcements and did not need to fight hard.

Wu Zheng just led his army across the river to attack, which was a feint, and there was no need to fight hard.

But Fang Guoan's troops are responsible for the siege, which requires strong attacks.

In other words, the pressure of this battle is June 31, or even July 21.

Fang Guoan proposed this battle and tried his best to promote it.

This has a problem.

As a person who sued Fang Guoan for colluding with the enemy, Wu Zheng felt so harsh when he said such words.

"Wu Zheng, are you questioning my loyalty to the court?" Fang Guoan asked sternly.

Wu Zheng smiled and said, "The officials dare not. The officials just talk about the matter based on the facts and expressed their doubts in their hearts. At the same time, they were also worried about the more than 30,000 Ming troops under the command of the Duke of Yue."

Fang Guoan pointed and pointed at Wu Zheng's eyebrows and shouted: "In the eyes of my country, you are just an ant. As long as I raise my feet, you will be crushed to pieces."

Wu Zheng still looked at Fang Guoan with a smile.

This calmness made Fang Guoan very angry... no, he was very guilty.

He suddenly took a step back, pulled out his sword from his waist and put it on Wu Zheng's neck, "Do you believe this will kill you with one knife?"

Wu Zheng glanced at the steel knife on the left side of his neck and looked at Fang Guoan and said, "Duke Yue wants to openly kill General Mingwei who had just made great achievements for the court in front of the royal palace, the commander of the cavalry, and the Qianhu of Lianghu?"

Fang Guoan's fierce eyes gradually restrained, but he still did not withdraw his sword.

Wu Zheng said calmly: "Xiaguan just suppressed the bandits on Pinggangshan. In the mountain village warehouse, Xiaguan found a book of accounts. Does Duke Yue know what was recorded on it?"

“What is it?”

"Every tax that was intercepted by the eight counties of Shaoxing Prefecture."

Fang Guoan's forehead was covered with cold sweat.

"What do you want to do?" Fang Guoan's voice trembled. Wu Zheng was really worried at this time. He would suddenly be unable to think and cut off his neck with one knife.

"The Xiaguan doesn't want to do anything, but just wants to remind Duke Yue that many things in the past are no longer important. What is important is after today. Although the Xiaguan had offended Duke Yue before, the Xiaguan was still willing to believe that Duke Yue was a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty."

Fang Guoan smiled and asked contemptuously: "Do you think you can control me?"

Wu Zheng also smiled, smiling brightly, "The three thousand soldiers under the command of the Xiaguan will definitely arrive at the designated position according to the deployment of Duke Yue. Duke Yue is relieved. In addition to restraining the enemy troops in Hangzhou, the Xiaguan will also watch for Duke Yue. If there are people under Duke Yue who dare to defect, the Xiaguan will definitely be able to carry out the Dharma on the spot for Duke Yue."

Fang Guoan's eyes became fierce again, "You are very brave! There are more than 30,000 people under my command."

Wu Zheng said: "Although there are few soldiers under the command of the lower officials, they are never afraid of fighting to the death."

One is a threat and the other is a hard resistance.

The two of them faced Mai Mang in a stalemate.

At this time, Zhang Guowei and others came out. When they saw this situation, they quickly came forward to dissuade them: "What are these... what are you?"

Qian Sule stood in front of Wu Zheng, and the other party said, "The Duke of Yue has something to say, how can he do this?"
