Guangzhou City, in the cabinet.

Zhu Cihong sat on the throne with a gloomy face, and several scholars and important ministers were sitting on both sides.

The threat of the Wei army in the north has not yet been resolved, and the Hongmaoyi in the south has provoked an incident.

This made the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty have a feeling that the wall was falling down and everyone was pushing it, and the drum was broken and thousands of people were beating, which made Zhu Cihong and all the ministers feel ashamed and angry.

The dignified Ming court, forced to Lingnan by Wei thieves, robbed by Sun Kewang and greeted with a smile, and now he was bullied by Hongmaoyi who ran out of nowhere, and the face of the boss empire was really thrown in.

This made Zhu Cihong annoyed and ashamed, and he was indignant in his heart, Gao Yihuan, an animal, really did anything for his ambition.

I have come to the throne, and what I have done, I ask myself if I am worthy of my conscience, and I am by no means the king of the dead country, why I can't fight Gao Yihuan and fall to such a point.

Now for Zhu Cihong, Gao Yihuan is strong enough to have a complete advantage, but this brute is still not satisfied, and he actually colluded with Hongmaoyi.

Zhu Cihong's face was hideous, and he knew in his heart that Gao Yihuan was letting him die and not giving him a chance.

"Your Majesty, the rebel general Jin Shenghuan is stationed in Hengzhou, and the Duke of Yasukuni is under great pressure in Shaozhou. The thief general Zhao Daxian was stationed in Fuzhou, and Zheng Guo's surname had already asked the imperial court for reinforcements. Chen Zilong broke the silence, "The minister sees that at the latest next year, as early as autumn, the two armies of Wei thieves will attack." If the imperial court wants to gain a foothold in Lingnan, it must fight this battle well, so that the Wei thieves will not be able to take advantage of it, and the Wei thieves may withdraw from the army. ”

Yang Wenyue took over the conversation, "Your Majesty, at the beginning, there were few thieves and few lands, and they were entrenched in the land of the four wars in Zhongzhou, but in the end, they fought their way out of the encirclement and were not destroyed, relying on the ruthlessness of daring to break the enemy's arm at the cost of their lives, so that the Manchu Qing knew that it would take a heavy price to destroy him." The Qing army did not attack him, but instead attacked the thief and the Ming Dynasty, and he profited from it and took advantage of the opportunity to grow. In today's situation, the minister thinks that I am a Ming Dynasty, and I also need to let the thief understand this, let him retreat from the difficulty, and turn to deal with Sun Kewang, and my Ming Dynasty will have a chance to turn around. ”

Zhu Cihong listened to the words of the two, his expression softened a little, he let out a heavy breath, and said in a deep voice: "I understand this, and the high thief also understands." He recruited Zheng Zhilong, the two armies pressed the border, and also colluded with Hongmaoyi, using all kinds of tricks, just didn't want to give me a chance, and wanted to attack in one battle. ”

Yang Wenyue stood up and saluted angrily, "Your Majesty, it is precisely because of this that we can't let the high thief get his way." In the next battle, we must fight well and beat the high thief. ”

"But now that the enemy is suffering from the enemy, the food and grass are scarce, and the army's heart is shaken, how can we repel the Wei thieves?" Zhu Cihong said in a deep voice.

Chen Zilong clenched his fists, "The only way to dismantle the trick is to resolve the difficulties set by the thieves for us, and then fight with them." ”

Yang Wenyue said: "The Wei thief occupies a large territory in Huguang, Jiangxi, Nanzhili, and Zhejiang this year, and the place is not stable, so we can send Jinyi Wei to plan an uprising to contain the Wei thief, and maybe delay the time for the Wei thief to go south." In this way, if we fight for a while, we can first solve the Hung Maoyi and ensure that the rear is worry-free, and at the same time resume trade and obtain money and food to meet the big war. ”

Zhu Cihong nodded heavily, "This can only be the case now." It's just that, how should the red hairy Yi deal with it? ”

This question really stumped everyone present, and at this moment, Lu Zhenfei hurriedly walked into the hall and saluted, "Your Majesty, Zheng Guo's surname is playing, the Hongmaoyi attack disturbs the Haijiang, please transfer the Guangdong Navy Division to participate in the attack on the captains!" ”

……

In the middle of July, the weather was hot, and the sea near Xiamen Island was lined with masts and warships.

When Zheng Chenggong faced Zhao Daxian, who was stationed in Fuzhou, he felt great pressure, and estimated that he would not be able to resist the Wei army on land, so he transferred his troops and materials to several large islands such as Xiamen and Nanao, and only stationed a small number of soldiers and horses on land to collect grain and grass.

When Chen Zilong led the fleet to Xiamen, Zheng Jun's Xiamen Water Village already had a certain scale.

At this time, Zheng Chenggong led everyone to the dock and stood and waited, looking at the Guangdong sailors, from far to near, slowly driving into the port, and waiting for Chen Zilong to go ashore surrounded by several sailor generals, and greeted him with a busy smile, "Chen Gong, success is far away." ”

Chen Zilong glanced at Xiamen Island and frowned slightly, "The surname of the country is polite." He pointed to Zheng Jun shuttling on Xiamen Island, and couldn't help asking, "What is the national surname?" ”

Zheng Chenggong said with a smile: "This place is surrounded by the sea, my army is stationed here, and I am not afraid of the Wei thieves who come in millions." With this island, I am invincible. ”

Chen Zilong's brows furrowed into the word "Sichuan", this place in Xiamen is indeed good, but Chen Zilong felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he couldn't say anything wrong for a while.

"What, what's wrong with Gong Chen?" Zheng Chenggong couldn't help asking.

Chen Zilong hurriedly shook his head, he stood and glanced back at the Xiamen Military Port, saw a forest of masts and thousands of warships, then turned around and arched his hand: "Now the grain of the imperial court mainly comes from the South Seas, and the taxes mainly come from the sea. Your Majesty has a decree, this attack on the big man, drive out the Hongmaoyi, the foundation of the imperial court, Wangguo surname must live up to expectations. ”

Zheng Chenggong's face was a little embarrassed, he had disappointed Zhu Cihong several times, but it was only three times, if he missed again this time, then he would have no face to see.

Zheng Chenggong immediately clenched his fists solemnly, "Chen Gong rest assured, this attack on Taiwan will definitely be a success!" After speaking, he couldn't help asking: "Gong Chen, are the imperial court soldiers and horses in place?" ”

Chen Zilong hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Chen Youlong and Jiao Lian will be stationed in Zhangquan in the near future to take over the defense." ”

Zheng Chenggong nodded with satisfaction, "In this way, I will be relieved." ”

Chen Zilong asked: "Country surname, what is the strength of this Hongmaoyi, is it easy to fight?" ”

Zheng Chenggong turned to one side, stretched out his hand and said, "Chen Gong, please, let's enter the account!" ”

At that moment, the group entered the big tent, the guests and hosts sat down, and Chen Zilong spoke again, "Hongmaoyi's provocation at sea has affected the imperial court's purchase of grain, as well as taxes at sea. ”

Wei Jun would not give Nan Ming much time, so Chen Zilong was a little anxious.

Zheng Chenggong waved his hand and ordered someone to bring a nautical chart to hang, he had already learned about the situation on Taiwan Island from the staff before, and he had already made up his mind in his heart, but he just groaned slightly, then stood up and pointed to the nautical chart, "This is the big man, the Hongmaoyi who attacked the grain ship is based on this place, and we can solve the Hongmaoyi by laying down the big man." Judging from the news obtained by the scouts, there are only about 2,000 Hongmaoyi in the big army, and there are some pirates and natives, there are about a few thousand people, which is not a lot of people, but they are fast and artillery, the fortress is strong, and the terrain is dangerous, and it is not easy to attack head-on. ”

When Chen Zilong heard this, he felt that Zheng Chenggong had no bottom in his heart, and couldn't help but say anxiously: "Then how to break the enemy?" ”

Zheng Chenggong said with a smile: "I am outnumbered, the army is several times larger than Hongmaoyi, my strategy is to rush up, big ships to shoot, small boats interspersed, fire ships bee chrysalis to set fire, first destroy Hongmaoyi's fleet, and then hit the fortress." The reinforcements of Hongmaoyi are thousands of miles away, and the lonely city cannot be defended for a long time, even if the fortress is strong, it will be taken by us. ”
