It seems that he has long known that Ruan Chuncheng will behave like this, Hong Jin withdrew his five fingers, and said with his hands spread: "If this is the case, then there is no need to talk about it, then I will go to report to the loyal and courageous father, maybe after lunch at noon today, they will send troops to Hanoi City." ”

After saying these words, Hong Jinzhen stood up and looked like he was leaving.

How could Ruan Chuncheng let Hong Jin go like this? If that were the case, wouldn't his lobbying mission be a failure. So he immediately reached out and pressed Hong Jin's shoulder and said, "General Hong, is there anything you can discuss?" Well, how about three months? ”

"Six days."

"Two months?"

"Seven days."

"A month?"

"Eight days."

"Half a month?"

"Nine days."

The two of them were like petty traders, and finally set the time for ten days.

Ten days happened to be the definite date that Yang Chendong handed over to Hong Jin. Because within ten days, basically Yang Chendong can be ready for the war, and as for such a short period of time, there will definitely be some Han people who can't come because they live too far away, and there is no way to do it.

There are many long nights and dreams, if there is something else wrong because hundreds or thousands of Han people in one or two cities have not arrived, Yang Chendong will definitely not allow it to appear.

Ten days naturally made Ruan Chuncheng a little dissatisfied. But he also thought about it, just delay it when the time comes, try to send some people within ten days, and someone will come after ten days, he doesn't believe that when that time comes, will this loyal and courageous man really dare to go to war?

With their own plans, the two sides reached a tentative agreement, and Nguyen Xuan Thanh wrote a personal letter to the crown prince in Hanoi City and sent it over. Then the battle in Cochin was calmed down for a while.

......

Yunnan Pingxi Palace.

The Mu family, which is closest to Jiaozhi, has always installed its own intelligence officers in Jiaozhi Country. They knew the news that Yang Chendong suddenly appeared outside Quyi City with mercenaries and captured it, and then marched out of Beidai City and occupied the city.

After learning the news, Mu Bin asked people to immediately send the information to Zhu Qizhen, the emperor of the Southern Ming Dynasty, and then called Wang Ji, the right attendant of the military department of the dynasty, and asked him to help him analyze the situation in front of him.

Along with Wang Ji, there was also Mu Ang, an outstanding son of the Mu family.

Mu Ang is only less than thirty years old, but he has been in the military for more than ten years. This son of the Mu family, who entered the military camp in his teens, is not only extraordinary, but also brave and abnormal when he fights, and has become one of the young people of the Mu family that Mu Bin values the most.

In the side hall of the Xiping Palace, there were three people sitting at this time. The reason why they didn't call others to come was because they wanted to discuss the focus of the matter, in such a chaotic situation, how the Mu family should decide.

For example, to discuss this important matter of the Mu family's interests, it is natural that the fewer people who know about it, the better.

Although Mu Ang is still young, he is very talkative, and he is calm and calm when encountering problems, so it is natural to call him here.

Wang Ji is even more

In this way, the people who have been abandoned by Emperor Yingzong now have to hug the thigh of the Mu family, and everything they do is naturally for the sake of the Mu family. can almost become a person who is still the secretary of the military department, and his eyesight naturally has it, so he was called to listen to his views on the current situation.

Xiping Wang Mubin was sitting between the two, listening quietly to the views of the two without saying a word.

Now that all three of them know the news, it's time to express their opinions. The first person to speak was the young Mu Ang, he first took this information and read it carefully three times, and then shook his head again and again, "This is unlikely, there are only so many mercenaries, everyone knows it, with those more than 10,000 people entering the Langshan rainforest, it is not easy to come out alive, how can it be possible to hit the interior of Jiaozhi and occupy two cities in a row?" What about before the city of Hanoi? Is this information mistaken? ”

It's no wonder that Mu Ang would think like this. Because he can't do the same thing. Although he is also a general of the Mu family, he can't say that he gave more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, even if he gave him 100,000, it is impossible for him to do things so beautifully.

"There can be no fakes in the news, and this information has been corroborated." Mu Bin saw that Wang Ji on the side also had an expression of disbelief, so he opened his mouth to determine the authenticity first. As for the corroboration of what he said, it was natural that another intelligence group also sent the same message.

One person may be wrong and cannot believe everything, but when everyone says so, it is undoubted.

Originally, Wang Ji also wanted to question this matter, but now he quickly closed his mouth when he heard Mu Bin's words. If he is doubting at this time, it is equivalent to doubting King Xiping, for him who has offended Yingzong and sees that he has no place to stand, if he doesn't hug Mu Bin's thigh, it will really become the world's biggest, and there is no place for him.

As soon as Mu Bin said this, the side hall suddenly fell silent again, obviously everyone needed to digest the news well. Then after waiting for about a cup of tea, seeing that the faces of the two people around him had almost recovered, Mu Bin asked again, "Okay, now you can say whatever you think." There are only three of us here, and you are allowed to speak falsely. ”

The so-called nonsense means that you can say whatever you want, and if you don't talk about it when you leave this room, no one will be punished for any crime.

What can he think and say, Wang Ji's little eyes rolled for a moment and then he spoke, "If all this is true, then the combat power of this mercenary is too powerful, and the ambition of this loyal and courageous man is also too great." ”

"How?" Mu Bin felt that Wang Ji seemed to have something to say.

Seeing that Mu Bin was interested, Wang Ji knew that the opportunity to perform had come, so he was not polite at the moment, and said everything he thought in his heart. "King Xiping, think about it, if this matter is really done by mercenaries, then how strong their strength is. With such strength, why did it take nearly two months for the imperial court to let him deal with the Yellow Bandit Army? With their strong strength, just push it directly, I am afraid that after a few battles, the untrained and rabble of the yellow bandit army will scatter and flee. Not only that, if he really relieved the emperor's worries and wanted to do his best, he could have come to quell the Yunnan Rebellion after destroying the Yellow Bandit Army, and King Min would return at that time

Didn't make it bigger? There is every chance that it can be strangled in the land of Yunnan, where is the current complicated situation? ”

In one breath, Wang Ji said a lot, faintly revealing a fact, that is, he always thought that the mercenaries did not fully exert their strength, but were hiding their clumsiness.

So under what circumstances do you want to deliberately hide your strength? Is his plan great?

Or even think the other way around? Does this person deliberately want to see something happen, to see the chaos get bigger and bigger, so that he can profit from it?

After all, when anyone has an invincible strong division in their hands, they all hope to have room to play. Otherwise, wouldn't it leave the jewels in dust?

I have to say that Wang Ji's inference still has some truth, and these words were also heard by Mu Bin, but Rao is they have already thought of this, and they have not yet seen that Yang Chendong wants to destroy Jiaozhi, raise the prestige of the Han people, and dominate the world.

If nothing else, their horizons are still too narrow. Although he is also in a high position, his eyes have always been in the realm of the Ming Dynasty and in this environment. Since childhood, their education has told them that the outside is a barbarian land, all of them are extremely desolate, and the center of the world is the Ming Dynasty.

It is under such conservative thinking that Mu Bin then asked such a sentence, "In this way, the loyal and courageous public deliberately hides his personal interests, but why is this done?" What's the use of hitting Cochin so hard? Do you really want to occupy it? Although this king has never been there, he has heard many people say that there are many small people and very poor there. ”

With Mu Bin's words, Wang Ji also said: "Of course I don't want to occupy there, and there is no benefit there." Loyal and courageous men do this, it is nothing more than to show his strength, so that others are afraid of him, and then achieve their own goals. ”

"Purpose, for what purpose?" This time, it was Mu Ang who asked out loud.

"Huh." Wang Ji first smiled smugly on his face, and then asked Mu Ang rhetorically and said, "General Mu, the old man came to ask you, after hearing about the arrogance of the mercenaries, if you are asked to lead the army to fight him, what are the odds?" ”

Mu Ang, who suddenly seemed to be asked, immediately turned red. He wanted to say that he was not afraid of mercenaries, but he couldn't do it when he thought of the means by which people would fight against Jiaozhi. This kind of courage was still deflated in a very short period of time, so he had to shake his head and say: "If it is really a battle between the two armies, fighting hard with knives and guns, I am afraid that our Mu family will not be able to take any advantage." ”

Listening to Mu Ang's unconfident answer, Wang Ji not only did not be sarcastic, but still nodded, "Look at it, even the Mu family army is not sure of victory, so how can Yingzong or King Min talk about the way to win?" This is equivalent to winning a victory in momentum before the battle, so if you want to ask the emperor for something with this prestige, how can you not agree? ”

When he said this, Mu Bin, who was sitting on the side, finally seemed to have figured it out, "Does Lord Wang mean that the loyal and courageous prince also wants to be the king like this king?" ”

"It's possible. After all, we have received news before, this loyal duke is very attached to the throne. Wang Ji nodded and said seriously.
