Chapter 64: Playing the cards

Yes, Zheng Zhun himself suddenly had confidence.

But he didn't notice the smile in Mu Rongshan's eyes.

Since the envoy came, he naturally wanted to entertain him well, and in this regard, it was naturally not easy for the prince of Chu Liuxiang to come out casually, but he also supported a lot of material support, and the Mauser battalion in training also stopped all military activities, added food, and served big fish and meat.

At the same time, Mu Rongshan also noticed that the number of people who came from Hanoi to Hongji to do business with relatives suddenly increased, although it was the second and third days of the Lunar New Year, there was also an endless stream, which was naturally very fake.

This is also normal, in this era, the so-called intelligence department still uses very primitive means to carry out intelligence work, and makeup reconnaissance is already their limit, at least they don't make any moths for you.

In this way, Mu Rongshan has more opportunities to get on and off his hands, and he has no extra defenses, and he will directly go west to attack Hanoi in a few days, but in these few days, all kinds of traces naturally fall into the eyes of people from Hanoi.

The silver sent down, which is very rare silver in Vietnam, was transferred to the hands of those ordinary soldiers, although some of the soldiers saved the money thriftily, but there was also a person who fed the whole family and was not hungry, but he took the silver to eat and drink, gambled and prostituted, and even led to the development of the "tertiary industry" of Hongji, which was not much. And the generosity when spending money, a part of it will flow out to the outside.

Of course, judging from the appearance of the envoy, Zheng Zhun is still a good comrade, a person who will work hard during the New Year, capture the rebellious profiteers, and contribute to the construction of feudalism in Dayue, which is a rare talent in the Zheng family.

Everyone knows how much water there is, but at the dinner, it was executed in an orderly manner, at least very well.

Le Duan is a figure who has been elected for a long time, because it has been determined that Zheng Zhun is preparing to rebel, the people of the Zheng clan who know about it naturally do not dare to visit Hongji, not only for fear of being detained by Zheng Zhun and killed, but also for fear of being considered by the people of Hanoi to be a person related to Zheng Zhun.

Le Duan is a good candidate, he was killed from the bottom, he had no connection with Hanoi's affairs before, he was just promoted during the New Year, and there are always so many people who rush to die.

Li Zhongxun is Li Duan's nephew, but he is an ambitious soldier, looking at the legendary Zheng Zhun at this time, but he also feels unremarkable, but since this person dares to pull the flag and rebel in Hongji, he will naturally have a hole card, whether they can go back safely this time, and at the same time bring the information back, it will be a test of their ability.

"General Zheng, Hanoi is very concerned about the affairs here, Hongji is my big port, if it is infiltrated by southern thieves, it will be a problem in the defense, so I am here to ask, what can I help you."

Zheng Zhun waved his hand and said according to Mu Rongshan's direct teaching: "Don't be afraid, what are you afraid of, this is the land of my dynasty, it has been taken by me with lightning speed, Mr. Li Duan, go back and tell your family, don't worry, have a good New Year." ”

Li Duan seemed to have a little hope in his eyes, and said: "By the way, General, as Zheng Zhiwen said before, I met a prince of the Celestial Dynasty and was willing to sell me arms to the Celestial Empire, what do you think?" ”

Zheng Zhun sighed and said, "Ah, I had a good conversation with that son, but what he meant, the Heavenly Empire is far away, and I am afraid that this arms will be delayed for a while." ”

Li Duan seemed to know this, and he didn't dwell on it much, and said: "By the way, the general is returning from the front line, and he admires the arms of the Celestial Empire very much, can you let me go and meet that son." ”

Zheng Zhun was a little hesitant and said: "Ah, you know, as soon as I saw that Chu Liuxiang Gongzi, I was really reluctant, and directly married the little girl, at this time it was still in the newlywed period, and the young man was also very active, but I am afraid that it will be some time." ”

Li Duan complained in his heart, your daughter is only a little over ten years old, and she has only met for a few days, so she hurriedly married her daughter, and at the same time instigated her subordinates to do it, obviously this is to rely on.

Suddenly, I thought of Brother Gongzi from the Celestial Empire, and immediately became alert.

The Celestial Empire is very large, although Yelang's arrogant words usually describe these small countries, Le Duan's education level only knows how many days it takes for the Celestial Empire to reach the imperial capital, and if such a big country participates in the internal affairs of Vietnam, it will be as terrible as an elephant.

Thinking of this, he became worried, and he didn't know how to ask, for fear that he would startle the snake and make Zheng Zhun find out, causing him to be unable to leave Hanoi alive.

In the final analysis, the reason why the Zheng clan did not dare to come to Hongji Port was that they were afraid of death.

And he, a person who worked hard from a peasant family, is naturally worthless.

Thinking of this, he was a little timid, but he was immediately inspired by the thought of glory and wealth.

"If I really want to fight, then can I take the opportunity to work hard in it and capture a feudal wife?"

Li Duan secretly thought about it, originally considering Hanoi, Zheng Zhun had a thousand troops at most, and at most there were strong men near Hongji, not to mention that the arsenal was still in Hanoi, so naturally they would not be too afraid, they were just afraid that Zheng Zhun would use his family identity to carry out a sneak attack.

Of course, according to the version that Mu Rongshan said to Zheng Zhun, thousands of troops were also marching west under the pretext of changing troops, and the rapid march could be reached in only two days, which was still due to their lack of transportation channels.

Of course, for the Presbyterian Church, we can't help but ask, what is the benefit of helping Zheng Zhun, a guy with a backbone in the back of his head, ascend to the throne of Vietnam?

Maybe Mu Rongshan can take the opportunity to try the fun of playing with the princess, and all kinds of play are more interesting, but for the Council of Elders, it is not only not beneficial, but harmful.

For the Presbyterian Church, the best neighbor is the neighbor who perished, and there is only one reward for helping the neighbor develop from ancient times to the present: being slapped in the face.

It's like the American Empire, the American Drama is our American Drop Concert (please repeat it in Shanxi dialect), and the whole of South America has been reduced to an export of resources, an export area for supermodels, and an export place for prostitutes, but who dares to say half a word of nonsense? If you dare to resist a little, you will have to be like Argentina, from the original high-income rich country to a %......

And poor Mexico, where drug traffickers are rampant to the point of wanton hunting and killing officials who dare to fight drugs, and the private armed forces of drug dealers are even stronger than the government, what is the reason?

A strong empire naturally does not like strong neighbors.

In fact, dismemberment and provoking a civil war are the first choice, just as the division of the Xiongnu in the north and south in the Han Dynasty gave everyone an opportunity.

But what the elders want is annexation, the earth is too small, and after unifying the earth as soon as possible, it is the only way to go, but the resistance that Vietnam can encounter is bound to be far greater than the previous battle in Korea.

In the past, in North Korea, the elders used spaceships to burn down all the granaries that could be found, whether they were official warehouses or private granaries, and only then did they slowly use the army to encircle and suppress, and there was no food, and the North Koreans who were detected could not organize a possible counterattack at all, so they were taken by the elders like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves.

But now, there is no shortage of characters among the elders who have watched Vietnam War movies, and they admire the Vietnamese for dragging the invincible American imperialism with blood, but when they think that they may have to face such a flesh mill, many people who do not know the truth are very afraid.

Of course, Vietnam was so ferocious back then, and it must also be considered that the rise of nationalism in the next few hundred years, at the same time, the large-scale material assistance of the Soviet Union and the elite Chinese army directly changed into Vietnamese military uniforms to fight, and a large number of Vietnamese women were actually forced to play resistance tactics by American GIs who sowed wherever they went.

In fact, in the Sino-French campaign at the end of the Qing Dynasty, both the Black Flag Army and our Qing Dynasty were annoyed and laughed at by the incompetence of the Vietnamese army, and the closer it was to modernization, the more the army's combat effectiveness came from discipline and teamwork, and it was obviously difficult for the agricultural society of Vietnam to support this kind of operation.

Therefore, their choice is simple, not to ask them what exactly they are going to do, just what they are actually doing.

"The action on the Hanoi side is still very fast, I just don't know what they will do in the future, this point, the imperial capital can't grasp it at all, if possible, if Zheng Zhun is assassinated, Mu Rongshan, but you have to go up to the top, you, son-in-law, you have to control the thousand people, with them, it's no problem to directly overturn Hanoi."

Mu Rongshan asked, "Why don't you protect it?" ”

"Because I don't know which choice is good for us, of course, don't be afraid, that Zheng Zhun is more afraid of death than we imagined, doesn't it mean that two people are close to him, anyway, Hanoi sent someone to investigate, and there are secret visits, which we have known for a long time, but we have to keep an eye on it, don't be sneak attacked, it's best to wait for both sides to prepare the army, and after the film starts, we will take action."

Mu Rongshan smiled and said, "The imperial capital is going to spend more money." ”

Father-in-law Bao didn't care and said: "Australia's gold can't be dug up anyway, what are you afraid of, of course, you have to pay attention, we do dig a lot of gold bars, but it's not in the way, there is always a way to get these gold bars back, those who engaged in paper gold back then, aren't they all promoted and rich, and they are all billionaires." ”

"Of course, I don't think there will be an assassination, Hanoi is now receiving something we secretly sent, so naturally they are alert, but when they unify their thinking, adjust their interior, and mobilize troops and horses, we will send troops."

"This means a huge consumption, if you can, control the range of their battles, don't be too violent, give them both sides that kind of idea, and then work harder, fight down, you can win, this, we can't learn from Song Taizu to make a formation to fight, so we can only adapt to the situation in Vietnam, and those few military people also said that they want to train in Beijing and take people south, and they will wait until the rainy season is over, they are tired on both sides, and there are enough dead people before they are willing to shoot, so, You and I have to figure out how to do these things together. ”

The two knew the elders' ghostly thoughts, they wanted to eat dog meat but didn't want to really kill the dog, so as not to provoke the strange and invincible brain-dead creature of dog fans, so the idea they came up with was to tease the two dogs to eat each other, and when they were tired of biting, they could naturally come out and take them away.

This is difficult for some strong people, and some imagination is too rich, once the Vietnamese wake up, or Zheng Zhun does not eat this set and is loyal to the family, it will be troublesome.

But on second thought, what is this in terms of their input and output?

If it can be solved with money, don't use people to solve it, first use arms to ignite the ambitions of an internal military leader, then use money to feed it strong, and then drive ducks to the shelves, shout rebel slogans, and record evidence at the same time.

At such a moment, it is necessary to go to war.

Of course, with a sense of responsibility and pretending to be casual, Li Duan still ran out to see many people, waiting for the ground outside the Xiangshuai at this time, waiting for an interview.

Zheng Zhun naturally sent a letter asking Mu Rongshan not to meet with this person, Zheng Zhun at this time all his net worth and life were pressed on Mu Rongshan, although Mu Rongshan patted his chest and said that he had a boat and could escape to the Celestial Empire with Zheng Zhun at any time, waiting for the army to counterattack and help him take Vietnam as the emperor.

This naturally will not arouse Zheng Zhun's trust, and for himself, he still hopes that too many people will not die, and it is best to ascend the throne through a bloodless and bloodless opening of the city.

This hope is naturally all on Mu Rongshan.

Hiding behind the glass of the Xiangshuai, looking at Li Duan standing there in the distance, Mu Rongshan was a little apprehensive, Zheng Zhun didn't know, didn't he know yet, after receiving the tablet, Hanoi sent someone over almost immediately, even despite the fact that he was still in the New Year, basically to inquire about the news, this person must have a mission, whether he can see it or not, in fact, it is also related to the strategic choice of the next step of the Celestial Empire.

Li Duan's eyes are very sharp, as if he is thinking, he is definitely thinking about himself, and at the same time he is definitely not a character who is easy to fool.

Mu Rongshan thought about it, sighed, and said, "That's all this person, I see, I don't want to see it." ”

"How?"

Mu Rongshan thought for a while and said: "If it is really for this Zheng Zhun to be good, of course I will suggest that it be directly detained, send back the fake news, and delay Hanoi's actions, but now, we are naturally trying to find a way to make this person go back quickly, otherwise, where can anyone get his wish?" ”

Father-in-law Bao suddenly said: "That's your father-in-law, aren't you afraid that the house will be restless in the future?" ”

"Haha, what are you afraid of, marry your husband, not to mention that I didn't kill him with my own hands, Zheng Zhun himself will not die, the ones who die are all the soldiers under him, don't worry, if you don't have such a little consciousness, how will you marry beauties all over the world in the future."
